Chapter 49

Here is the English translation:

This is the result of the poll conducted on Twitter, please accept the Tsuchinoko Grand Order.

621: National Dog

I was told to come here, but...

622: MamaIya

Welcome to the Tsuchinoko Search Board!

623: RareRet

Even if it affects skill stats a bit, Fast Travel magic is essential, right?

624: Manko Rangero

Because Tsuchinoko has Fast Travel, only the locals can catch up...

625: Nerinerine

By the way, it's not guaranteed that you can catch up.

626: DeepSlaughter

New searchers have arrived...

627: National Dog

What is Tsuchinoko? I just want to know about the player Sanraku.

628: RareRet

Tsuchinoko = Sanraku

This board is for sharing information about Sanraku's movements and trying to get the information he holds.

629: MaaO

Well, no one can even talk to him except for DeepSlaughter...

630: National Dog

Why? Are they ignoring him?

631: Nerinerine

No, it's simply because he moves too fast for anyone to catch up.

632: Cameron Pan

- He avoids people, or it might be roleplay; in the city, he usually disguises himself, so you can't tell who he is without seeing his name.

- In the field, his movements are incredibly fast, and he seems to be charged.

- Because he has a Fast Travel method, he appears unpredictably, both in the old and new continents.

633: MamaIya

Who called Tsuchinoko?

Due to the few encounters, the blacksmith board had a festival, so the chasing never stops, just like you.

634: StarGeyzyπ

Starting with the talking Vouivre incident, he's involved with almost all unique monsters and the recent event, so the chasers have increased.

The problem is that he's a solo player, and even members of the same clan don't know his whereabouts, so encounters are purely a matter of luck.

635: National Dog

Why doesn't he reveal information? Is it because he wants to keep it to himself?

636: DeepSlaughter

If that were the case, it would be easier...

He's the type who doesn't want to spoil things for players who come later, so he intentionally keeps it hidden.

637: Manko Rangero

Is it helpful or a nuisance...

638: Zanba

For production jobs, spoilers don't matter, so just get on with the content.

639: One Mure Shell

Blacksmiths are still better off; AGI warriors are almost clueless and get snatched away at maximum speed, causing chaos.

640: Dead Army Chicken

I saw it in person, and it was really impressive.

641: Cameron Pan

We only know that he does a lot of self-enhancements besides the buffs DeepSlaughter applied.

642: U-paru-paru

I think there was something similar in the information Tsuchinoko presented in the library.

643: Zanba

It's probably an accessory related to the mysterious job of a gemcrafter, a glove that wraps in black lightning and moves at ultra-speed.

644: Euglena

We don't understand the prerequisites, so we don't know what he's talking about.

645: Manko Rangero

It's speculated to be a job related to gemstone accessory crafting, but what's the point?

646: Zanba

There are suspicions that he has cleared the Crystal Nest Cliffs, so with gems...

647: MamaIya

Someone go to the Crystal Nest Cliffs.

648: Realto

Is it true that the AI of the monsters there has become crazy recently?

649: One Mure Shell

It used to be like stepping on a landmine and exploding immediately, but now it lures you in and then traps you with a bear trap.

650: National Dog

I don't understand at all.

651: Dead Army Chicken

Don't worry, I don't understand either.

652: One Mure Shell

Sorry, I'm not good at explaining!!!

653: Euglena

Well, most people die before they can even realize what's happening...

654: National Dog

What's the incident in >>634?

655: MamaIya

A faint sense of being a kid...

656: U-paru-paru

Hold on, it's still one out.

657: StarGeyzyπ

>>654

It's called the "Zigvurm Incident."

During the Zigvurm EX scenario, he stood out so much that it got this name. Specifically:

- A parade of weapons and armor no one had ever seen

- Battling Zigvurm one-on-one and getting high ratings

- Summoning a battleship

- Mysterious transformation and rampage

- Achieving maximum speed

- Involvement in the Leviathan's surfacing

- Proving the existence of gun weapons as the first to clear it

658: Euglena

Even aside from that, the Zigvurm battle had so many things... looking up, you'd see robots flying, and dolls falling from the sky.

659: RareRet

While the world is hyped about Dragon Princess, we are focused on Tsuchinoko searches.

660: Cameron Pan

Dragon Princess is great, acting as the main character in the Zigvurm battle and being treated like a saint on the ninja board.

661: Eggplant Yoichi

She's in the same clan as Tsuchinoko.

662: NumeNumeSis

That clan, with Tsuchinoko, Dragon Princess, and the Giant Slayer, is a group of insane members with the highest firepower.

663: MamaIya

Isn't that to avoid new members?

664: Dead Army Chicken

No, they're actually friends from another game, according to the player Kyougoku.

665: Tart T' Tan

Isn't he an active PKer? Isn't he still being hunted by bounty hunters?

666: Dead Army Chicken

Kyougoku has been more low-key recently and doesn't ambush in the city... in the field, PKing doesn't accumulate much karma.

667: Manko Rangero

By the way, Dead Army Chicken is a former PKer and from the Asura Guild, so there's a connection there.

668: NumeNumeSis

The old Asura Guild was a group of PKers who didn't leave much of a bad aftertaste...

I know the Asura Guild after SurvivorAl left was problematic, but it's a bit sad that it's gone.

669: RareRet

Speaking of SurvivorAl, I remember Tsuchinoko is also involved in bounty hunter-related jobs.

670: Euglena

Even knowing that he can interfere with bounty hunter jobs and at least force a draw, the difficulty is still too high.

671: Falkehl

I'm in the Dress-Up Squad, so I know it's a chimera of luck, skill, and negotiation.

If the bounty hunter is Teas or Lutia, it's almost impossible, and even with Toul or Glitch, the difficulty is very high. Moreover, you need cooperation with PKers to summon them.

Even SurvivorAl, with Toul-meta equipment, kept losing until he finally got Toul.

672: Dead Army Chicken

Speaking of the Dress-Up Squad, they were very active during the Zigvurm battle, right?

673: Lari@

Stop it, stop it! Only the leader and Shimi Rea were actually fighting, but we're being targeted by the ninja board!

674: Falkehl

Oh, are you from the Tempura Knights? The ones who surrounded and cornered Dragon Princess... you shouldn't be saying that, w

675: Lari@

Stop it, stop it! Only the leader and Shimi Rea were actually fighting, but we're being targeted by the ninja board!

676: Manko Rangero

If you want to talk about Dragon Princess, go to the ninja board. This is the Tsuchinoko board.

677: National Dog

In the end, is there no way to meet Sanraku?

678: NumeNumeSis

There's a theory that he's in the Orchestra Unique and hasn't progressed to Leviathan, so you might be able to meet him at Leviathan.

679: Cameron Pan

By the way, the Orchestra was already cleared.

680: Euglena

Rumor has it that Tsuchinoko's opponents are set to high difficulty.

Only Tsuchinoko and players who have cleared the library can challenge it, so it's unclear if it's a special or a branch.

681: Button Pot

Because the theory that Tsuchinoko is on a different version hasn't been resolved, the library isn't providing information, which is really frustrating.

682: U-paru-paru

There's a rule that if you provide false information, you lose.

683: Spring Roll

In the end, he's running ahead of the front line alone, so most of what Tsuchinoko uses is unknown content. Even the completeness transformation was a mystery until recently.

684: MamaIya

A nightmare that knocked all the NEKAMAs into hell...

685: RareRet

You don't think the Holy Grail transformation changes the voice, do you?

686: Zanba

For production jobs, the demand for gender-specific equipment is increasing, which is a mixed blessing.

687: Manko Rangero

By the way, DeepSlaughter did encounter him, right?

688: DeepSlaughter

Yeah, I even added him as a friend...

But even with that, catching up is a different story.

689: MamaIya

Just the fact that his roleplay changes with each post makes it so much easier to read...

690: Cameron Pan

I often skipped over posts thinking they were from different characters...

691: Dead Army Chicken

Tsuchinoko is still Tsuchinoko.

692: National Dog

It was somewhat helpful, but not really.

Ninja board's Dragon Princess

More accurately, Dragon Princess, a player who has been crowned by dragon and lizard people and tamed Noalrindo to perform a grand performance against Zigvurm.

Originally a term with some mockery, it exploded in popularity on the ninja job board, regardless of gender, due to the public revelation of the highest ninja job, "Ninja Saint," and her friendly nature.

It is, without a doubt, him.
