Chapter 336.2: Great Idea
Eh!? What do you mean? (Cry)
Initially, she investigated the Treasure Shrine many times before carrying out Luke\'s curse-lifting operation. However, Eliza has never once declared it impossible to break in.
For someone who used to travel to various dangerous zones as a Solo Hunter to say so much, did something happen to her? Something that would compel even a professional in danger detection to say so.
Eliza says to me in a slightly reproachful tone.
The Temple of Origin is on high alert. Because of the battle with Night Parade (Hyakki Yako). The presence of Phantoms is incomparable to before, and it is difficult to even get close enough to see them. (Eliza)
Heeeh I see. As one would expect from a Treasure Shrine that is estimated to be Level 10, even the Phantoms are well controlled. (Liz)
Liz says admiringly and Tino *kyorokyoro* looks around uneasily.
Leaving aside humans or Monsters, this is a phenomenon that does not occur very often with Phantoms.
Phantoms are not living beings. As a reproduction of the past, they do not aim to preserve the species, have little fear of extinction, and have little sense of belonging since they are not born from parents.
The reason why Treasure Hunters are able to infiltrate Treasure Shrine infested with Phantoms is because they are basically working individually. The only thing is that all of them have hostility toward intruders, so it is not uncommon for highly intelligent Phantoms to form swarms, but they usually range from a few to a few dozen at most and are never large enough to form an army.
Kuu, those Phantoms were not born one after another. The groups are counted as one. They are not at a level where they are well controlled. They are highly intelligent, and they clearly see us as the enemy and are waiting for us. (Eliza)
Indeed Now that you mention it, those Phantoms appeared all at once.
What happened to Adler and her group? (Cry)
I don\'t know. The only thing I do know is that the Phantoms from the Temple of Origin are receiving the power of Mana Materials and are increasing their strength day by day. (Eliza)
A pro at sensing danger. Eliza\'s genuine voice makes Lucia gasp and Liz whistle.
Since Adler and her group weren\'t there, the Phantoms must have won that battle.
If they were human, we might have been able to negotiate, but the ones that remained are the nasty ones.
How about Lucia smashing it with her Magic from afar like she always does? (Cry)
Eh!? (Lucia)
You can\'t! The Phantoms have not come out of the Treasure Shrine yet. If we stimulate them from the outside and they start to advance outside, Yggdra will be in danger. (Eliza)
Lucia makes a sound as if she has been caught off guard, and Eliza immediately rejects my plan.
I\'m just kidding, you know No well, it is not like I did not think it might be possible.
However, that is problematic. If it is difficult to even get close enough to see them, lifting Luke\'s curse is out of the question. It doesn\'t seem like it takes that long to lift the curse, but we can\'t protect them well enough.
Isn\'t there a better way to do it It would be fine if we could just intrude a little while and borrow the power of the World Tree.
Then I came up with a great idea and *pan* hit my hand.
I know! Shall we dig a hole? (Cry)
Right! Let\'s dig a hole! (Sytry)
Sytry eagerly agrees with what I said.
It is an out-of-the-box thinking. There is no need to foolishly sneak past the Phantoms\' security to get close to the World Tree. What we need is the power emitted by the World Tree. If we dig a tunnel from underground and approach it, no one will notice. Digging tunnels is hard work, but it is far better than dealing with a well-organized army of Phantoms. If we are aiming to conquer the Treasure Shrine, we can\'t use this method, but if we just want to lift the curse, this is enough It should be enough.
I name it Sneak up on them, quietly lift the curse, and quickly get the hell out of there strategy.
However, I never would have thought that I would come to the same conclusion as Sytry, the brain behind Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei) Is the me of today a Divine Strategist?
It is a simple strategy, but that is probably why it is an out-of-the-box one. Eliza and the others look at me with wide eyes while I make a badass smile and at Sytry, who, for some reason, is full of joy.
I gave them a big hint about digging a hole, and yet, they still haven\'t noticed it Well, I guess it can\'t be helped since Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei) has been almost exclusively on the offense, huh.
I *pachin* snap my fingers and prompt Sytry.
Sytry, can you explain it to them? (Cry)
Sytry gives a big nod, *nikoniko* smiles and says with more confidence than ever.
Yes! What Cry-san is trying to say is thatIf the Phantoms are unmanageable, all we have to do is to weaken the Treasure Shrine itself. The research I was conducting at a certain institution until recently will come in handy! (Sytry)
Huh? It seems like it is different from what I was thinking
!? Weaken the Treasure Shrine, you say How do you do it exactly? (Lucia)
When Lucia asks with a suspicious expression, Sytry wiggles happily and with her cheeks blushing.
Yes. We will dig a hole and bury the device that will interfere with the Mana Materials flowing through the earth\'s veins. There will be no need to approach the Temple of Origin, and it will be safe and secure! Isn\'t that right, Cry-san!? (Sytry)
Y-Yeah. (Cry)
Safe and secure It is not what I had in mind, but I guess that is all right too.
Thanks for reading! Ah yes, the legendary if you can go right, left, or up then go down strategy! It would have been fun to see Strange Grief dig a tunnel for them to find something. But well Sytry has another plan involving research from a "certain institute" that might or might not be legal!
