Chapter 123: Paradise in There
How deep did we descend?
We've been falling for several hours at a rate that can almost be described as a free fall.
"Wince, Sedona. Are you feeling unwell?"
-No problem?-
"Me too. Do you feel anything, Shiro-san?"
"No, I'm fine too."
"Then there's no problem. Let's go down like this."
No, it's not.
The problem is that there is no problem
For example, there was a study on Earth where they dug a hole to great depths.
I think it was......10 kilometers or 12 kilometers deep.
The deeper they dug, the hotter it got, and that was the limit of human science.
What about the hole we're going down now?
Probably not at the level of 10 kilometers
I don't think it's 100 kilometers, but it's definitely over 30 kilometers.
"Shiro-san, look at the wall!"
The scenery started to change along the way
"The wall is glowing?"
“This… isn’t it a luminous stone?”
Come to think of it, it certainly looks like the same light
However, it is incomparably brighter than in the hidden room in the royal castle and the Dragon Mountain.
What was even more surprising was the arrangement of the luminous stones.
They are neatly embedded in the front, back, left, and right.
Clearly man-made
"It's like a gate."
From there, we descend even deeper.
Finally, something glowed in the distance.
-I'm going to increase the speed-
"Please"
---------------
The bottom of hell is filled with black sand
"Amazing..."
That's the only word I can think of to describe this paradise.
It was overgrown with grass and trees.
The ceiling was covered with luminous stones
And clear water running through it.
-There's the flying ship!-
"We'll jump onto the ship! Sedona, look around the perimeter. Wince, let's go."
"Yes!"
The ship had landed in the center of that space.
Edgeworth's corpse lay next to it.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Monsters! They're after us!"
There were people who were clearly hostile
Hostile or not, it doesn't matter
They humiliated him
I'm gonna kill every last one of them.
I'm going to charge at them with all my might.
But...
"Wince! Get down!"
"Eh?"
I grab Wince by the head and pull her under cover.
"Fire!"
And with those words, there's an explosion.
A hole opens up where I've just been.
"That was dangerous......"
"Eh? ...Eh? What is it?"
It was a gun. And probably an automatic weapon.
"No, a blessing in disguise."
“What kind of weapon is that!?”
"A weapon with iron arrowheads that pierce at the speed of sound."
Wince looks relieved to hear that.
"What, in short, it's no different from a crossbow."
"That's right, it doesn't even use magic."
"Anything else I should be aware of?"
"If it throws an iron ball or something, be careful, it'll explode."
"Roger that!"
Wince jumps out
Enemy fire at Wince.
But they don't hit her.
"It's a nice, straight shot."
Wince is looking in two places.
One is the muzzle.
The other is the enemy's line of sight.
That's the only way she can avoid all the shots.
"What! This guy!"
My condolences
Don't underestimate her lightness
Don't underestimate her reflexes
"Damn it! She's dancing!"
It would appear so. I see it too.
Wince's lean evasion is now a splendid dance
"I'm in distance!"
Wince throws a hatchet with a string attached.
The three people in line were killed instantly by that blow.
"Huh? Isn't metal armor harder?"
Metal armor is less effective on basic firearms.
The easier it is to move, the thinner it is and the more it penetrates.
The thicker it is, the less mobility it has.
It's a good idea to assume that the opponent's weapon of choice is a firearm.
Now that we know their defenses...
I'm going too!
"Greetings, everyone!"
"A-another one!"
"S-shoot! Shoot like crazy!"
I can't move around like Wince, so here we go!
"Shock Wave!"
Magic that emits shock waves around
By itself, it's not lethal.
But depending on how you use it and how you think about it, it can be extremely useful.
For example...
"Ah……"
"Uwaaaa!"
It's used to block projectiles.
And throwing them off the ship.
"Shiro-san, It's an outrageous thing to do."
"I couldn't think of any other way."
Eliminate all visible enemies
Sedona just came back
-There's nothing around-
"Good work"
"Here too now, there's nothing left."
The way you say that!
