Under Jin's initiative, the second prototype of <> Golem was created.

The concept was to use <> for <>.

It was a tribute to the engineers of the past who had developed this form.

Then, the old man reported to us.

"Oh, I see."

"That's good."

The Blow Floater <> and the airship belonging to the Duke of Breu went to the ruins of Fort Hutoks, and all but Jin D and the others have been pulled out.

"Is there anyone else there?　Are there any other locals?

<

"That's good."

Jin decided to use the warp gate equipped with a hurricane to visit the site. Of course, Rubina, Gulina, and Marikka would go with him.

"Okay."

Jin turned to the three of them and they all looked at him ......, especially Rubina, who looked like she wanted to get going. >>.

Since they were going through a warp gate, they had nothing to prepare, but they had prepared a lab coat and a shoulder bag so that they would look like technicians who had come to investigate.

Near 4:00 p.m. local time, Jin and four others appeared at the warp gate inside the .

"Welcome, father."

Reiko, of course, greeted them. In return, Jin D returned to Horai Island.

"Well then, let's go check out the ...... lab."

"Yes!

Rubina replies in a very loud voice when Jin D. calls out to her. The other two replied, but their voices were drowned out by Rubina's voice.

"Well, this way please.

Reiko, who was a member of the survey team, led the group into the ruins of the fort.

Jin had seen the report from the old man and the video report from Jin D, but his impression changed when he saw the actual site with his own eyes.

"It looks suitably old.

Jin felt the weight of the years on the stone materials that made up the passageway, or rather the fortress building itself.

"This is the main laboratory, isn't it?"

"Oh ......!"

Photos of stores are often taken with a wide-angle lens in order to capture the entire building. However, although this method can certainly capture a wide area, it has the disadvantage of making objects in the distance appear smaller, resulting in a picture that is far removed from the impression seen with the naked eye.

Jin's impression at this time was similar to the above.

"I see, it looks spacious but it is very small. There were probably no more than 10 people in the room at any given time.

Jin judged so by looking at the size of the entire laboratory.

"That's right, Jin-sama. I think the maximum number of students is seven or eight, and the maximum number of students is five.

Marikka also estimated the number of people who would have been here.

"Yes, that's right. I don't know if it was a small group or if there were not enough people."

Jin looked around,

"I'd like to believe that ...... was a very good group of people," he said.

He said.

"It would have been a shame if we had a little more ...... time and manpower to complete this system."

Neither Marikka, Rubina, nor Gulina could speak to Jin's mutterings.

"Well, let's see what we can find.

After the survey team led by the Duke of Breu had left, it was unlikely that there would be anything of interest, but the eyes of Jin and the others were a little different from those of ordinary people.

But the eyes of Jin and the others are a little different from those of ordinary people. They can obtain useful information from what appears to be trash.

"This is different, this is different ......"

Jin-sama, are you sure we'll find it?

"Greenina, stop blabbering and look for it!"

What Jin and the others are looking for is a magical resin.

It's a kind of dregs, half of a scrap material, or something before it's refined.

This was a part of the process to identify the place of origin of the ultra-high-performance maggi-resin that had caught Jin's attention.

There are almost no clues in the refined Magi Resin, but in the unrefined form, various information can be read.

For example, what kind of tree the resin came from.

If the tree is a tree that grows only in a certain region, it is a simple matter.

But it is also possible to identify the region to some extent by analyzing the impurities contained in the resin.

Just knowing whether they are from cold or warm regions makes a difference.

Normally, it would be possible to know by looking at the records, but it seems that such things were either taken out or disposed of when this laboratory was abandoned, and Jin D and his team could not find them in their search.

"Well, I guess I'll just have to take a shortcut here..."

An hour had passed since he had visited the laboratory, and Jin decided to use his magical tools, thinking that he would not get anywhere if he continued his search.

Until now, Jin had been searching by himself, partly as a sign of respect for the unknown person who had created this new lineage, but he decided that it was unlikely that he would be able to find it at this rate.

"Jin-sama, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to use a magical tool that will help me find what I'm looking for."

"If you have such a thing, why didn't you use it?

Rubina reacted naturally, and Jin explained.

"One is to pay homage to those who came before us, and the other is that when you are looking for something, you may find something unexpected in addition to what you are looking for.

Nowadays, if you don't know a word, you can just search for it on the Internet, but in the old days, when there were no computers or the Internet, you needed a dictionary to look up an unfamiliar word or phrase.

In the process of finding the desired word, we sometimes came across descriptions of other words and increased our knowledge of them as well .......

In fact, Jin, who was looking for magirezin, found scraps of materials they used and pieces of ores.

He also found several items in the trash that looked like notes.

However, they did not find a single piece of related to the most important objective, the magical resin.

"So, I'm going to look for <> to make a magical tool."

Jin explained in front of Marikka, Rubina, Gulina and others.

"What we are looking for this time is magic resin. It is an unrefined one. But we searched for about an hour and couldn't find it. Are we clear so far?"

Everyone nodded silently.

"Since we know what we are looking for, we can think of a way to create a magical tool that reacts to the same thing.

As with engineering magic<>, it is difficult to make it react to something you don't know, but if you have something you know, or a sample, it is much easier.

In this case, the sample can be a purified one. There aren't that many of them anyway."

The idea is similar to the <> function in most text editors.

Searching for the word <> is not very useful, but for the word <>, the results are much narrower, and you can find the string you are looking for among them.

The time and effort required for such a search would be a hundredth or a thousandth of that required for reading down the whole text.

It is the same in this case. You only have to pick up the magic resin (magiresin) and look for the one that contains the ingredients before refining.

If you don't find it, you can assume that it is not here in the first place.

"Now that we know the principle, how do we look for it?"

Rubina asked the obvious question,

"Don't ask me everything, just think about it for a minute. You have ten minutes. In the meantime, I'll get the ingredients from Hourai Island.

Rubina, Gulina, and Marikka were puzzling over what to do.
