Dicuo, the mechanic from heaven

"That's it."

Al thought they would take more stringent precautions.

Thoughtful.

On the other side, after the two left the tavern, the gray-haired girl who was wiping the table suddenly ran out of the door and looked at Al's back for a long time.

"What's wrong, Xi'er?"

The green-haired elf came to his friend's side and asked softly.

"Nothing, Ryu."

Xier shook her head and didn't intend to tell the other person what she was thinking.

because.

[Isn't that child's soul too turbid? ]

The girl who was searching for an extremely pure and shining soul was a little bit unbelievable about the soul of the boy named El that she had just seen.

It's simply... like a guy who walked out of a sea of corpses and blood.

Besides Orario, has there been such a brutal war recently?

He quickly looked away.

Xier felt that this child was the complete opposite of the person she would like and love.

It's too dirty.

However, even this young man with such a broken heart was able to put on such a gentle smile just now.

This world is really interesting...

……

Entrance to the dungeon maze.

El and Lunova followed the crowd and walked inside.

"A lot of people."

Al couldn't help but sigh.

"We even have to queue up to enter the dungeon?!"

Orario is a city built entirely around a dungeon, not only to defend against the monsters that constantly appear inside.

more importantly.

The magic stones obtained after defeating monsters are also extremely important "resources".

The development of Orario is inseparable from magic stones.

Therefore, entering dungeons, destroying monsters, completing guild commissions, and collecting rare materials are the daily lives of adventurers.

"That's what the guild's advisor said."

Al practically recited the other person's words in their entirety.

Actually.

Early this morning, before heading to the Mistress of Plenty to meet up with Lunova, I first went to the guild to register as an adventurer.

"Al, you're still LV1, right?"

"correct."

"Even though I'm here, it's still better to stay in the novice area. Lord Demeter asked me to protect you just to avoid any accidents. You'll have to fight the monsters on your own."

Lunova is a LV4 second-level adventurer.

In Orario, he is considered one of the very few "strong ones". You know, nearly half of the adventurers are at the lowest level 1.

"So, this time, let's head towards the third floor!"

"it is good!"

As a new adventurer, the guild recommends exploring 1-4 levels.

Because generally speaking.

After the 5th floor, monsters that are difficult for newcomers to deal with will appear.

Because monsters are not fixed to a certain floor, occasionally, there will be accidents where monsters from deep layers come to higher layers. So generally speaking, if you enter the dungeon for the first time.

Layers 2 and 3 are the safest.

Lunova had obviously given her advice after careful consideration.

Following the circular staircase between the stone walls and going down, the two soon arrived at a cave that seemed to be crisscrossed with caverns.

for a long time……

……

"Ready to fight!"

Lunova yelled, alerting El to the monster that had appeared not far away.

Those were some goblins with clubs.

"Where's your weapon?"

Until then.

Lunova just remembered that since entering the dungeon, El had nothing in his hands. The only thing worth noting was the two "mechanical assistants" that had been flying beside him.

"Aaaahhhhhh!!"

The goblins holding wooden sticks were now rushing up shouting.

Lunova was a little nervous.

After all, this was her first time bringing people to the dungeon, and she thought that El had been scared silly, so she was preparing to deal with the monster herself.

Then, the young man took out a shiny metallic...

What the hell?

Bang bang bang bang!

A series of sounds rang out. While Al calmly reloaded his automatic pistol, he looked at the goblins that had become cold corpses after being shot in the head by him.

I thought to myself, this thing really works.

Chapter 3: The mechanic has his own way of fighting!

What era is it now? You are still acting like a traditional goblin!

Al hummed softly.

He quickly walked forward and dug out the small crystal in his body.

Subsequently.

The monster's corpse turned into ashes and quickly dissipated before his eyes.

"Is this the thing that powers the entire Orario? How interesting! What are its components? What can it do? Is it some new energy source?"

Lunova obviously didn't understand a word of El's mumbling.

Her attention was completely drawn to the weapon in the boy's hand.

What exactly is that?

Just now, I saw it spurting out flames, and then the monster died instantly.

Demonic sword?

Demeter's family is indeed quite wealthy, and the goddess seems to dote on him very much, so it's not surprising that he prepared a magic sword.

But... I have never seen a magic sword like this before?

And it would be such a waste to use it to fight goblins or something!

The magic sword is a precious consumable item, it will be damaged after being used too many times! !

Just as Lunova was about to talk about El, she suddenly found that the walls around her were "wriggling" again.

New monsters appeared!

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang! !

Al obviously noticed this as well, and quickly raised his pistol again, turning the newly refreshed goblins into ashes.

And this time.

Lunova saw clearly that at the moment the fire exploded, a small metal bullet was ejected and pierced through the goblin's head in an instant.

The huge impact force killed the weak monster instantly.

At the same time, the metal bullet was embedded in the stone wall, leaving a deep hole.

Obviously, this is not a magic sword, but something like a slingshot or a crossbow?

Is it a weapon made in a country other than Orario?

Or some kind of magical device?

Lunova remembered that El claimed to be from heaven. Is there a country called "Heaven" in this world?

"These monsters really just spawned!!"

El's words quickly pulled Lunova out of her thoughts.

"So, what's the principle? Are these monsters organic? What's the growth process like in the maze? Has anyone observed it?"

"what?"

Still didn't understand a word.

Lunova couldn't understand why El was so excited.

but……

Of course I’m excited!

Al went to register at the Adventurer's Guild early in the morning and wanted to go to the dungeon. It was last night when he heard Demeter talk about the common sense of this world.

Heard about it.

[The dungeon is "alive"].

It means literally that the entire dungeon is some kind of huge "living thing" with self-awareness that even the gods cannot explain.

interesting!

Mechanics are of course also scientists, and the underlying logic of science is to explore the unknown.

Do you understand what the underlying logic is?

Al is now full of interest in the entire dungeon.

So next...

"Sa, let's start the experiment."

……

"As long as the magic stone is not dug out of the body or destroyed, the body will not disappear, and the remains and blood will remain in place."

"But why did the blood on the ground disappear as well? But the blood on my clothes is still there. How does this work?"

At this moment.

Al was stepping on a kobold.

This short, dog-headed monster, also known as a clown demon, is one of the monsters on levels 1-4, just like the goblin.

"Lunova, do monsters need to eat?"

"what?"

From the very beginning, she felt that El's mumbling to himself was strange, but the girl still subconsciously returned.
