Chapter 555.2
The request this time was to help with the search for a certain ruin that the Sheep Horn clan had been leading the excavation work on.
Even though it was an ancient ruin, it appears that it was not a labyrinth-like place, but rather a ruin built by a completely unknown civilization – in other words, an architectural style that even the members of the Sheep Horn clan who had gone down that path had never seen before.
Apparently, the magical mechanisms that were used to preserve some ruins that had been working for hundreds of years have deteriorated and stopped working, and now, it appears that the ruins have collapsed due to the passage of many years. No artifacts have been found, and only three rooms filled with sand and dust have been discovered inside the ruins.
However, given the size of the ruins, it was said that it was highly unlikely that there were only three rooms inside.
In addition, it seemed that a mysterious magical force that could not be traced to its origin was being felt inside the ruins, and it was thought that there were probably still more rooms hidden deep inside, possibly due to some kind of magical influence.
It sounded quite interesting. The fact that it was completely unknown was especially wonderful.
Besides, there would be no member of the Sheep Horn clan that wouldn’t be excited by this.
“Another long trip, Master?” (Emu)
“I guess so. I don’t know how long I’ll be away, but I think I’ll be gone for a while. Well, now that we have that airship, it’s a lot easier to get around than before, so that’s a big help.” (Eldogalia)
