South of Roginia, No Man's Land, Goblin Forest
The fourteenth Griffon Squad traveled for almost twenty-two hours towards the Iron People were last spotted. Throughout their journey, they never have seen a single goblin or magic beasts.
"Is that a wall?" Elena pointed at the tall wall which at the top were neatly aligned strange steel cannons.
"It's only been five days since we last spot them. I can't remember any tall wall standing here." Commander Stewart still can't believe in the wall in front of them.
"You are right Commander Stewart, It will take a few years for such a wall to build" One of the squads members agree to Commander Stewart.
"They truly hold one of the legacies. We need to obtain it immediately. Elena let's get close to the wall. We need to find more about this Iron People." Commander Stewart didn't wait for Elena's answer. He approached one of the strange green-clothed guards with their metal thunder staves.
"I am Stewart von Guenot Commander of the Fourteenth Griffon Squad from Roginia Empire. I'm here to talk with your master" Commander Stewart introduced himself to the strange guards. The strange guard frowned to Commander Stewart.
"Looks like they didn't understand us, Stewart we need to cast translation Magic" Elena suggested to Commander Stewart. They call one of their squad members who were good at void magic.
The squad member about to start chanting the magic. When the strange guard took something from his pocket and put it on at his wrist.
He was about to call one of their colleagues who were good at void magic, but suddenly the wall guard took something in his pocket and put it on.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to wear my Wrist Terminal. I never thought one of the locals will come here. By the way, I'm Lieutenant Frederico Commander of the First Solum Army A Company Platoon Four" The whole squad shocked in owed at the black metal magic artifact imbued with translation magic.
"I am Rank 6 Elena Silverwing also from Roginia Empire. We want to talk with your master" Elena also approaches the strange guard and introduced herself.

"Oh-ho, Please wait a moment. I'll ask our superiors about this" Lieutenant Frederico uses his Black metal magic artifact again. You can hear voices from the artifact as if they're talking.
"You are given permission, but only two of you will enter and the rest will stay here" Command Stewart nods. He can't believe what's happening, it's too fast.
Commander Stewart and Elena entered the Huge Iron Gate when it open while the rest of the members wait in the tent.

Mysterious Town, North-East of No Man's Land
After the fight, the whole squad took various samples from the Giant snake. They will give it to Doctor Elmidor for study. Five minutes later, they return to the town. The sun was rising at the East when they arrived at the towns Elder's home. They also called the Doctor.
"You're not just a traveler right?" The town's Elder looks at the five travelers in strange black clothes and weapons. This is the first time he sees something like this.
"Yes, we are actually soldiers from the country in the South-East. Other than that we can't provide any more information." Lieutenant Rina bowed in the front of the town's Elder.
"If you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. I'm here to thank you for resolving the mystery happening here. I thought it was made by demons, but it was only one metal anaconda" The town's Elder also bowed to the strange travelers in deep gratitude.
"Why you didn't notice it right away? That Giant snake doesn't live here" Doctor Elimidor asked the town's Elder. He looked at various samples of the Giant snake.
"Yes, that metal anaconda doesn't live here but in a cave further from town. It was hibernating and something wakes it up. It was hungry and look for food. It didn't find single goblins, so, it attacks a nearby town and villages. Even if we noticed it we can't fight it either" The town's Elder explained with a sad look in his face.
"Do you mean those pointy-eared green-skinned creatures which tall as a ten-year-old child?" Sergeant Satsuki asked, and the town's Elder nods.
"Shit!" Sergeant Satsuki whispered yo herself. She thought that they may be wiped the whole race of code: goblin.
"You are right, I'm grateful to what you did, but can I ask you for one last favor?" The town's Elder asked. Lieutenant Rina smiles at the town's Elder that she's saying 'yes'.
"Can we take the metal anaconda scales to sell it to the merchants? In return, we will give you a map of the city." The whole squad looks at each other. They accept the favor with a smile.
"Sure, we already have samples of the Giant snake. The map you will exchange is already a big deal." Lieutenant Rina said the to town's Elder.
"Thank you very much. The whole town will earn a lot from the metal anaconda scales. We will never forget this and forever indebted to you." The town's Elder and his companions knelt to the five strange travelers.
