Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1267
Episode 1267. It looks a little dangerous.
Merdef hesitated at the fork in the road.
It was clear that if I continued to go on like this without any preparation, I would be in great danger.
“Are you really going to go on like this?”
At Merdef’s words, Elio shook his head.
“no.”
“Good idea. I will guide you to the shopping district.”
“Let’s go to the Abyss Management Center. You said you had to register?”
“After that, I’ll guide you to a shop that mercenaries love.”
“You hear a lot about how stubborn you are?”
“It is because we must prepare for survival.”
When Merdef didn’t bend his argument until the end, Fabian stepped forward this time.
“hey! do it in moderation Do all other people look like scarecrows in your eyes? Do you think we keep our mouths shut because we’re fools? Do you think there’s anyone worse than you here? Just shut up and do as Lord Lagoa tells you.”
Merdef flinched when the quiet young man suddenly gave off a beastly spirit.
Come to think of it, I think it’s a bit strange.
Aside from the others, that beautiful woman who was said to be ‘as wise as the gods’ kept her mouth shut.
‘Looks like he’s ready.’
Perhaps a cart was waiting at the entrance to the Abyss.
When I thought so, I lost my pulse.
‘Fuck then I’ll say yes.’
Merdef, who was muttering inwardly, quietly moved away.
Abyss Access Control Center.
In front of the huge wooden building, Merdef couldn’t move a single step.
There were two entrances to the Abyss Management Center, and there was a short signboard saying ‘Kingdom’ on the left and ‘Empire’ on the right.
Turning around to ask, ‘Where are you going?’, Merdef found out that the seven adventurers were all looking at the face of one young adventurer.
Elio rubbed his chin with a puzzled face.
It would have been nice if I had known in advance that the reception area for the Kingdom and the Empire was different…
In a way, it was nothing, but Elio couldn’t easily choose.
This is because his actions could have given the wrong signal to the kingdom or empire.
Although he registered as an adventurer in the Empire, he was shaken by the fact that he had to choose between the Kingdom and the Empire.
At times like this, it’s still the most convenient to ask Luna Mylus.
“Saint, where should we go?”
Then Luna Mylus answered without hesitation.
“There won’t be much difference, but going to the kingdom will be a little better. It would be more favorable to those from an ally kingdom rather than warring empires. If you register with the Empire, you can attach a watcher from the Southern Kingdom.”
Merdef looked at the beauty with a bit of surprise.
I don’t know how she knew it, but it was an open secret in the Southern Realms to keep an eye on Imperial adventurers and mercenaries.
But that’s not what’s really important.
Wouldn’t it be possible for an adventurer or mercenary to choose an empire and a kingdom?
“I’m sorry about what I said, but I don’t know where you are as an adventurer, but going to the country you registered for…”
Elio said a word at his words.
“Where can those who haven’t registered as adventurers yet do it?”
“If you can prove your identity as an aristocratic mercenary adventurer, you can register here at the Abyss Access Control Center.”
“If I registered in the Empire, can I not register in the Kingdom?”
“I know of no such restrictions. If you can prove that you are a noble or mercenary adventurer in the kingdom, you will be able to register. By the way… If you were an adventurer in the kingdom, the Imperial Security Guard wouldn’t have accepted you, right?”
“So you can register again here?”
“If you can prove your identity, of course it is possible. Whether it’s a kingdom or an empire, they’re impatient because they can’t attract them to their side, but there’s no way to stop it, is there?”
“good. Then let’s go to the kingdom.”
Elio strode towards the gates of the kingdom.
Merdef was dumbfounded, but thought it was because he was sure of his identity.
The process of registering in the kingdom was not difficult.
Helio Fabian, Earl of Larva Omar, submitted the title certificate of Viscount Baron from the Northern Kingdom and completed his registration as an adventurer in the Northern Kingdom.
As Fabian retrieved everyone’s certificates of title and was about to turn around, the officer at the Abyss Access Control Office pointed to the remaining six men and women and asked,
“Aren’t they doing it?”
At the officer’s question, Fabian immediately snapped a finger at Merdef.
“yes?”
Merdef knew Baron Fabian Cloud’s identity, so he respectfully respected him.
“Where did you register? is it a kingdom? Is it an empire?”
“I am an imperial mercenary, so I have already registered with the empire.”
“I see.”
The officer’s gaze turned to the other five.
“Baron Cloud, then have all the other people over there registered with the Empire?”
Fabian couldn’t help but be taken aback for a moment when the secretary questioned him.
Have you looked into it so closely?
The operation of the Abyss access control office looked sloppy, but it didn’t seem like it was all that.
“wait a minute. I’ll check.”
Fabian returned to Elio and the others gathered at the entrance—already on their way out.
“I ask where the company of the Lady of Lagoa and the company of Baron Solon belong. It has already been known that Merdef is a mercenary registered with the Empire. It’s an atmosphere where the saintess’ party and Baron Solon’s party also have to register in the empire, right? I was going to skip over it, but I’m checking each and every one of them.”
“Damn it. Did you bring it all with you? I’ll make you wait outside.”
At Elio’s belated regret, Merdef intervened.
“It is useless. The full list will be included in the Abyss entry permit anyway. It’s not something you can get rid of by avoiding their eyes now.”
“Oh yeah? You mean you can’t hide your origin anyway?”
“That’s right.”
Merdef looked at the adventurers with strange eyes.
Three northern kingdom nobles, three empire adventurers, and two people who seem to be related to the temple.
I don’t understand how these people got together in one place.
‘What are they doing?’
Besides, the Viscount of Lagoa had clearly referred to the beauty as ‘Mrs.’ yesterday.
But now they call me ‘Saint’.
If you look at the knight in the robe who doesn’t leave the beauty’s side even for a second, it’s probably a saint.
There was no doubt that the beautiful saintess’ attire was also of priestly type.
Northern nobles and imperial adventurers and saints.
I don’t know how they got together again.
At that moment, a cannonball flowed from Elio’s mouth.
“ha! As the saint said, there is no difference whether you go here or there. I just wrote my head. Fabian. Go ahead and teach me everything honestly. The five of us here will register with the Empire. You can’t hide it once you’re on the full list anyway.”
“yes.”
Fabian, who had gone back to the secretary, came with a piece of paper in his hand.
“I just need to go to the imperial office and get the six adventurer registrations confirmed.”
When Elio received the papers, there were six blank spaces under the three names.
After a while, Elio and the others went to the Imperial Office to register the six people.
The identity of the saintess was resolved by the Holy Knight Almet Hareb’s guarantee.
In the process, Merdef knew for sure that the beauty was a real saint.
After that, Merdef lowered his posture even more.
This is because the saintess is a representative of God and is as dignified as emperors and kings.
Viscount Lagoa’s ‘wife’ remarks were decided to be dismissed as momentary nonsense.
Before the blasphemy, it was absurd for a saintess to marry only a viscount from the north.
Departing from the Abyss Access Control Center, Elio and his party moved westward along Merdef without rest.
Merdev, who had been walking for about an hour, stopped in front of an open pit mine that looked about 2 kilometers in diameter.
A narrow path two meters wide spiraled down to the edge of a huge pit that was too far away to see the other side.
An exclamation flowed from Elio’s lips as he saw the unreal scene.
“Wow! What are all these things? Is it man-made?”
“Iknow, right. I’ve only seen it in pictures, but seeing it in person is amazing.”
Fabian also stuck out his tongue in disbelief.
As the adventurers couldn’t take their eyes off the open-air mine, Merdef hid himself.
“This was originally an open-air mine for mana stones. Mana stones were mined for hundreds of years, and the entrance to the Abyss was discovered when the mana stones were exhausted. After that, the mana stone mine was closed and it led to the development of Abyss.”
Elio, who was looking around the huge pit, asked curiously.
“Hyung, it’s no joke when it rains in the south, but if it gets flooded here, won’t everyone die?”
“There were a lot of people who were so worried, but the conclusion is fine. The Abyss at the bottom absorbs everything.”
“I guess the Abyss was like a pot with a bottom?”
It was an unfamiliar metaphor, but the meaning was clear, so Merdef nodded.
“That’s it. In the beginning, on the contrary, it is said that there were many times when monsters and monsters that were in the safe zone jumped out. There is no such thing as all of them have been subjugated now.”
“But hyung, you told me before that the Abyss was the origin of monsters. There is an entrance in the ground that deep, did you even say that?”
“That’s because monsters keep appearing in the Abyss, and in the beginning, monsters come out of the Abyss…” “Even if
people didn’t dig the ground to develop a mana stone mine, that wouldn’t happen. I don’t think monsters can penetrate this deep land.”
“If the entrance to the Abyss was only here, it would be so. But what if there isn’t just one here? It may still be coming out little by little from there.”
“His hypotheses… are boring. let’s go down How long does it take to get to the bottom?”
“Even if I can’t, it will take half a day.”
“Lead ahead.”
Merdef had something he wanted to say about the origin of the monsters, but kept his mouth shut and took the lead.
Did you go down the spiral road for about an hour?
Fabian, who was silently walking under the hot sunlight, jokingly said to Baron Howard Solon,
“Even if you find the treasure, it won’t be easy to bring it out. Isn’t the terrain perfect for being attacked? If you wait up there and shoot a bow, it will be over. There is no place to hide or run, and I will give everything I have and die?”
“It looks a little dangerous.”
Baron Howard Solon shook his head.
It was true that he was vulnerable to danger because he had to follow the spiral road that was exposed for half a day.
Elio, who was walking down side by side with the saintess, said a word.
“Didn’t Fabian tell you not to be mean? Then, if you run into robbers, it’s all your fault.”
“Ah, strategically speaking, this is the way of open pit mining. It’s not a joke, more than half of the people who were actually robbed…”
Before he could even finish his sentence, a ‘boom!’ The sound of a magic gun was heard.
Subsequently, in front of Elio, ‘Puck!’ and stones and dirt sprang up.
Soon after, ‘Boom! pop! pop-!’ There was one sound after another.
Elio and Fabian, who knew the magic gun’s power better than anyone else, shouted almost simultaneously.
“run!”
It’s a spiral downhill road, so it’s meaningless to run, but people instinctively ran.
