Ten were sent to the area near Lake Aoba in Newell.

There, a golem belonging to the <> of the <> is hidden.

The location is not a problem, as the old man has already located it with his <>. <

So this is Lake Aoba.

Shinobi I mutters to himself as he checks his surroundings.

Be careful, the ground is muddy!

He warned.

The small Shinobi troopers are the enemies of the muddy ground. 10 of them jumped over the muddy ground using their force field generators.

The entrance is at .......

The entrance is a cave in the middle of a rocky hill about a kilometer from the lake.

<

So far, so good. The only problem is what lies ahead.

The cave is large enough for even animals such as wood bears to enter, so the shinobi troopers will not react at this point.

However, the true entrance at the back of the cave is different. It has three entrances, the first of which is the first one.

This is a very rudimentary illusionary barrier that merely optically makes it look like there is a rock wall there. The inside is hollow.

There will be no alerts from going over.

The old man expected that there would be no alerts for small animals that might wander in.

After waiting for half an hour and not seeing any movement, Shinobi-ichi decided that the first one was over.

Now the second one.

It seemed that a password was required here, just like the security that Reiko had broken through with the help of the old man some time ago.

Since the old man had already broken through this security once, he was able to crack the password without any problem.

The door disguised in the rock wall at the back of the room opened.

Okay, I got it. The password is .

Shinobu Ichi is the first to pass through the door that opens.

Beyond that was a small, spacious room. But the walls and ceiling are still rock.

And then the final security measure awaited us.

The third security was a golem.

It was a small golem, about 70 centimeters tall, with the body of an infant.

The old man was convinced that the small golem used by the bandits who were raiding the Klein Kingdom must have been made by stealing this technology.

The first is warding--physical security.

The second is passwords--informational security.

And the third security is the golem. And now, there it was, standing in front of the door to which the Shinobi troop was heading.

Looks like it's gone from dormant to standby.

It was probably moved when the second security was breached.

If we approach any closer, it will shift from the standby state to the active state and eliminate the intruder. It is quite troublesome.

Shinobu I contacted the old man and asked him for advice on how to deal with the situation.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

At Horai Island, the old man begins to consider how to deal with the situation.

<

A <> is a magi-machine that produces the magic pattern of a specific individual or magi-machine.

In other words, it is possible to < a Magi machine.

In this case, if we can create the magical patterns of 10 automata for maintenance and inspection, we should be able to break through the third security.

.

The old man considers the next best solution.

He does so in less than a second.

>

Or..,

< or an to disable the golem? >>

and ,

<>

I have considered about 20 different ideas,

After considering about 20 different ideas, he instructed us to use <<<< MagiDeceiver>>.

He gave the following instructions.

The <> was created by Jin about a year ago, and is a device to < the control core and the magic brain.

The sensors used in Golem have inputs associated with physical phenomena such as light, sound, and heat, but the outputs are all magical power.

The outputs of these sensors are by the magi-deciever.

It can be called a localized version of an illusionary ward.

However, since Jin made this device half out of curiosity, its functions are still limited.

Specifically, it can only make you think that <>. But that was enough for this time.

The old man immediately sent the Magi Deciever to Shinobu I and the others.

* * * *

Shinobi 1 activates the MagiDeceiver sent by the old man, pointing it at the Golem.

This should make the golem believe that nothing is happening. Let's go!

Roger that!

The ten Shinobi troopers pass by the motionless Golem and head for the back door.

<

In other words, about 100 deformed golems were there.

There was also <<>, which had been moving the other day.

I will send you a report on them.

* * * * * * * * * *

The golem's hangar was so strongly warded that even a <> could not see inside.

Now that the door has been opened, it seems that a gap has been created in the warding, and through the eyes of the Shinobi troops, the old man can see what is going on.

<.

In addition, there are 20 golems each with an appearance that seems to have a limited use.

There is an unnatural space between <<<<< gee>> and <>. ...... Shouldn't there be another golem there>>?

If we apply <><><<> to the numerals known to Jin, we get 1, 2, and 4, and I had a feeling that <<3>> was missing.

As if to confirm his expectation, there was a gap between <> and <>.

<<3, So, is it named <>? ...... No, I can't help but think about that now>.

I have so little information that I could not imagine that I was right.

The old man put aside the <> and sorted out the information sent to him through the eyes of the shinobi troop.

<> bodies.

They are headless and have four arms. The old man guessed that it was for land combat.

There are 20 golems of a similar type to the < on Horai Island. This one is definitely an underwater specialized type.

<>

There are 60 such golems. However, each of the 20 golems has a different type of weapon.

<

The old man imagined that there would be 20 of each and that they would be deployed for different purposes.

He was satisfied with the information he had obtained about the weapons of the <.
