A huge mountain-size structure discovered in the red hot «Gauda Arb Warming Desert». Although there was no information in the survey, from this point on there was still an unknown area, ordinarily it would be impossible to think that there was a structure with a size as large as this in such a well known place and no information would be available for it.
If someone actually built it, some sort of information would have leaked somewhere, even more so since it is in such a hard to reach place. Even if there were issues due to accidents such as lost books on which its information were written, there would have still been some clues left behind in ancient stories and songs, but that too was missing.
It probably would have been counted as a legacy from a prehistoric civilization or a wonder of the world if it was in my previous life, but in this world it is highly probable to be a [Age of the Gods Dungeon], or at least I believe that when I decided to enter it yesterday.
The appearance of the structure has a strange aspect as a composite of various styles of temples based off the pyramids. There are also some structures with the giant pyramid in the center, apparently connected by a passageway or something else, so it's probably one complete structure.
As we can not just look at it from the outside, we were trying to get in from a luxurious entrance that was protected by huge stone statues on the left and right made from the same red Pyramid material, from there we could see a huge entrance hall.
It's quite a spacious area about 40 meters high and 150 meters in both length and width. If you look up at the high ceiling, there is a spherical body like a sun, with a gentle and powerful light that emanates from it illuminating the wide entrance hall.
A beautiful floor like a spotless mirror is made of seamless and crisp stones, giving the impression of being a huge monolith. Also, on the walls made of the same material as the floor, various kinds of pictures were drawn with a unique style, giving off some kind of vague clue.
A king-like bird-headed person wearing a crown with a unique shape with a triangle crest, guardian-like soldiers who protect it, people with tools like citizens, and on the border of the picture, almost in the shadows, people with slave-like clothes being stepped on.
In another picture are birds who flies with the shining sun, a vicious purple snake swallowing a river, a male dog wearing a Shinto priest's clothes, a balancing cat-headed woman with a dagger in hand, a human eating crocodile monster with a lion's head.
A sandstorm that is blowing away a house, a blessing rain that falls from the heavens, a great sand wave swallowing monsters, a dark and freezing desert made of ice, the land of the dead left with the decayed bones of monsters.
Among them, the most noteworthy thing was the huge blue fish with wings drifting in a sea of stars drawn in the greatest detail, giant red birds lying on lava, a golden giant with its palms together in worship, a huge white beast who writes something in a book, a pair of huge black eyes that sit at the center of a large violent swirl.
Once I saw it, I felt drawn in, unable to take my eyes away. I could almost feel traces of the past civilization coming of them. After carefully approaching they looked like museums or art pieces that you could just appreciate. There was no sign of anything other than a small Pyramid with a height of about 3 meters that was protruding from the center of the entrance hall.
The golden pyramid is decorated with eyes and shines dazzlingly in the ceiling sphere's light. I was wary of suddenly being attacked, but there was no particular change as I approached. After a moment of silence, the time to look over the situation is over.
Even if it is surprising to be ambushed, I eventually stopped viewing the wall and, while approaching the wall careful to not fight back even if ambushed, a dungeon monster appeared out of the little golden pyramid.
The dungeon monsters that came out of the pyramid like a ghost, passing through the material by using[Permeation], wrapped in a golden bandage around its whole body like clothing and in its hand it held a golden devil bird of prey.
Looking at the skin visible from the glare of the gilded bandages, it looks like dry rabbit skin, similar to what you would see with an undead of the "Mummy" type that appears in the desert. From its surrounding atmosphere, it must be located in the upper tiers even among the Mummy system.
Ordinarily a Mummy is less ornate, or with a humbler appearance, so there is no doubt this one is different. Anyway, the Gold Mummy that appeared is slim in body shape, but it has a height of about 2 meters.
Its body is not wasted, and seemed to have enough strength for close combat. However, the extraordinary wand it had in its hand seemed to be a sure sign it was a sorcerer, and it was a type that fights mainly on something [Magic].
Apparently, it can cope with the unknown challenges, and its overall performance must be high. Since I had a feeling it was still hiding something, it would be better to assume its skill was even higher.
With this I was convinced that I was in a [God] rank area, as the dungeon monster with that much strength came out from the very beginning. As there was no dissatisfaction with the 1st enemy here, almost at the same time as I took out the Vermilion Spear while considering him, and the Gold Mummy said, "Humma, there is no one who would come here. No, it seems there is a reason for that...".
It is a majestic voice that might have been similar to other people's deep bass sound. I wonder if he was a noble man in life.
I was surprised when the Gold Mummy did not seem to care, "Anyway, I will welcome you from the bottom of my heart, you supernatural Capturer. You are the first to enter this - [Red Desert Quadrilateral Tomb Iburam · Lattem · Pyramind] since it was created.
I'm concerned about the mechanics of how it was speaking with such dry and rich vocal cords, but that's about it. The Gold Mummy gestured was as if he were a champion. Each of the gestures was refined and full of dignity. I guess there was no lie in the words of welcome.
When it swung a wizened bird of prey in its hand, a luxurious desk and chair appeared between us. Surely this Gold Mummy must also have an ability similar to the Crimson Dragon Emperor [Labyrinth Dungeon Chief of Security · Neit].
Looking at the Gold Mummy that had somewhat gentle eyes, it sat in a chair without any precautionary gestures and urge me to sit as well.
Since I did not think that there was a trap there, I sat down as prompted and took out the sweets the Sisters made before along with some tea that I purchased in « Orzi Manu · Deunas ».
It is uncomfortable to have it alone, but it was exactly right to enjoy them like this, instead of finishing them myself.
After settling down, I did not even feel like fighting anymore, while I was enjoying sweets and tea I asked him to explain about various thing, as if I had been a visitor.
First of all, it seems that this Gold Mummy also has a role as a guide to this place. This [Age of the Gods Dungeon] was created by the [God of the Royal Tomb] and its name is as the Gold Mummy said [Red Desert Quadrilateral Tomb Iburam · Lattem · Pyramind].
Normally, just if the existence of the [God's Age Dungeon] is known then, to some extent, it can gather [faith], but Coco is a bit different in circumstances.
There is sufficient revenue from the surrounding area it seems just because there is the [Faith] and customs of people that care about the [Pyramid of the King Sleeping Under the Sun]. That's why he said that they do not have to bother attracting adventurers.
The royal tomb is the place where the dead silently spends their time. It is also a place of pride that serves the greats of the past, so it seems that the [God of the Royal Tomb] judged that there is no need to bother collecting bothersome attendants and making it noisy.
There are areas that have the custom of sending out messengers with fun and noise, but they are an exception. That's why they have not made a [Tyrant] or new [King] so far, they seem to not have done anything in particular so far.
Its been kept quiet since long ago. You could say that the only daring thing its done seems to be producing the red sand around itself.
The sand seems to have the role of eliminating powerless cheaters, but since it also serves as a raw material for craft works, they have been collecting [Faith] without anyone else knowing.
There seems to be no risk, but are the profits sufficient to be secure? Well, I guess I would choose the same path, if there was such an option available.
Anyway, the Gold Mummy says that in order to capture this place, I will need to collect the keys from the «9 Royal Tomb Palaces» that are connected by the entrance hall, then overwhelm this area- this all seems necessary to reach the Sleeping [Labyrinth God] in the main hall.
However, in each of the Royal Tombs there are area bosses who sleep there, so it seems to be quite difficult to capture even one of the King's Tombs.
People from all over the world have been carefully selected as area bosses, such as [Legend] and [Emperor] class warriors, that certainly existed throughout its long history, with each boss stronger than those who participated in the previous [Holy War].
No, they will surely be strong. In the past, there should have been someone who could fully demonstrate the abilities of the [Sacred Treasure], which can become a nuisance in the middle of a battle.
However, although it is attractive to that extent, it could be just as bothersome. Besides that, I talked about various world stories but, while the Gold Mummy's knowledge was abundant, there were still some areas it could not learn about.
There are things I've been particularly concerned about.
The [Gods] of 7 Pillars as a force:
[God of Forgetting]
[God of the Continent]
[God of Illusion]
[God of the Environment]
[God of Harmony]
[God of History]
[God of Heritage]
There is a story about the legendary and abundant in mystery [Dark Continent Mitrohia · Ducklebus · Fogan] which is said that people are unable to return from after stepping out of the ocean, only existing in the jointly created world [Multi Dynasty Dungeon].
It is said that an entire continent is a [God's Age Dungeons] and there is more space than general [God Grade].
In fact, there seem to have been challenges made by the past [Kings of the Sun], but even the difficulty of shallow places is equal to or greater than the farthest depths of the [God] class dungeons.
It is also a danger zone inhabited by monsters of the past era which were much stronger than modern times, many plants and the like that are from dangerous or extinct species, with their difficulty the greatest in the world.
It seems that the [Sun King] who did not come back is also among the Gold Mummy's friends, so the talk was pretty real. Perhaps the Gold Mommy also challenged the area. Anyway, I will go into the details about that later, today I gathered various other pieces of useful information, but after a while I ended my talk with the Gold Mummy, and got back to Kanami, but the next day we will be gathered for information consolidation at « Orzi Manu Deunas ».
Of course, I made the next goal the [Dark Continent Shrouded in Mystery]. Although, I got along well with the Gold Mummy, I also intend to capture [Red Desert Quadrilateral Tomb Iburam · Lattem · Pyramind] later, but its importance is not so high considering its condition, as well as the location.
« Orzi · Manu · Deunas » will be evaluated to a point, but since [The God of the Color Crown] created in a closer area [Selection of the Red and White Crown Palace - Urgeleto · Boraris] so there is no need to hurry and capture an obviously tougher area.
If you start a capture in secret to with Sei and Burasato's in the lead, there was plenty of reason to be a little scared. Regardless, if I keep them capturing the common [Age of the Gods Dungeons], they will start complaining that I am monopolizing such a high quality[Age of the Gods Dungeon].
So when we come next time I will organize a party with volunteers. Anyway, it is time for the [Dark Continent Shrouded in Mystery].
According to the Gold Mummy, there seems to even more overflowing food ingredients that will not be available in modern times. Since I am going around the world to eat new ingredients, this is what I will focus my time on without exhaustion, aiming to do our best. While gathering information I think of that far off goal. An ancient extinct ingredient, I want to quickly eat it.
