Seiya - Control Room

Jonde complains, standing before the stone wall in front of us. That’s when the ground under our feet begins to rock.

“Wh-what?!”

I suddenly feel like I’m floating, and my body begins bobbing up and down. After a few moments go by, I come to an abrupt stop.

“Seiya! What was that?”

“It’s like an elevator. We’re underneath the fortress now.”

“Wait. What?!”

Even I can see how strong Seiya’s fortress is. He seems to have put a lot of work  into  its  defense,  and  yet,  he  made  a  shelter  underground  as  well?  I thought I was used to how overly cautious he is, but here I am...

Despite our mute amazement, Seiya walks down the underground path until he reaches a wooden door. I follow him inside, where I am taken by surprise yet again.  Glowstones  illuminate  the  spacious  room,  and  countless  water-filled buckets are lined up on the floor. The buckets display various places nearby, such  as  the  sea,  the  flatlands,  and  the  area  around  the  fortress.  In  addition, Seiya  has  created  what  appears  to  be  an  observation  deck  out  of  stone. Numerous  earth  serpents  stick  out  of  it  like  microphones.  It’s  like  the observation room in the watchtower evolved into a control room.
