"The <> clans are supposed to be neutral, but in fact they are divided into two inside ......."
Belialus changes his tone in the middle of the sentence. Apparently, it is true that he is grateful to Jin.
"I am ashamed to say that there is an internal division.
Belialus looks a little sad.
That's very common, Jin thinks, but doesn't say it. Instead, he asks another question.
"Is it correct to assume that you are good at controlling demons and magical beasts?
"Yes. I am good at controlling ground worms. It seems that each surgeon has his or her own affinity, and there are few who can do everything by themselves.
"I see. ....... Yes, do you know a man called Archel?"
Belialus looked a little surprised when he heard the name.
"Where did you hear that name? Archelle is my sister, she disappeared a year ago."
"Hmm? ...... seems to have been in the northern part of the Kingdom of Klein, the land of Men. Not that I've ever met her.
"I see. ......
Belialus looks worried, but he puts it down and says, "I'm not sure. But he pushes it away and explains to Jin.
"...... She specializes in . She can also use transfer magic.
< is a giant scissors beetle. Jin remembers that it must have been the same one that attacked Gloria.
"Who is good at <>?"
"Gigantopods? No, I'm sorry, I don't know."
Jin asked just in case, but it seemed that he had never heard of the gigantic hundred-footer itself.
"It's a gigantopod, but if you don't know what it is, that's okay."
Jin reminded me of something else that had been bothering him.
"Oh, yes, one more thing. Do you know anyone who can control the Hecaton Cail?
"Yes, there are about five of them. About a month ago, a man named Endus sent them across the Pazdekst isthmus.
Unlike Jin's imagination, it seems that the more intelligent a person is, the easier it is to manipulate him. It may seem obvious, but it is said that it is more convenient to have a certain level of intelligence in order to manipulate <>.
On the contrary, the more primitive the creature is, the more apt it is to manipulate.
"So, how are the clans?"
"Well, the belligerents have left the settlement, so you can consider the remaining 20 or so as moderates. ...... but they probably all have implanted in them."
"I see. ......"
At least the <> clans and <> clans have been victims of the .
"The problem is that we don't know how many clans were controlled by the magi-machines that were stopped this time.
First of all, we need to liberate all the clans that are said to be moderate, but for starters, it will be the clans and the clans.
"Which of these clans is closer to us?"
Istaris answered the question.
"We are closer to the clan. < clans live much further to the west.
"...... that's right."
A disappointed look on his face, but it can't be helped.
"Alright then, tomorrow morning I will visit the <> clan. If they are free, I will take out the agggha. If not, then we will go to ......."
"What are you going to do?"
"Paralyze them all and pull out the control needle."
Jin added, "The negative dolls already know that we can pull out the agggha," he said.
With that, the meeting was adjourned.
"Mr. Fabius, can you show us some of your old magic tools?"
Jin (his double) asked with great interest.
Yes, of course. Some of them don't work. Please, this way.
Jin (his double) followed Fabius with four miniature craftsmen (Smith) on his shoulders. Reiko goes with him.
"This is the first one."
At the far end of the living area, a grimoire with many windows. It was the .
"I see. ...... May I touch it?"
"Please do. If you are Jin-sama, you may reveal it to me.
Jin (his double) took him at his word, and together with his mini-craftsman (Smith), removed the exterior of the magical tool.
"Hmmm... ......"
"Oh, so this is how it's done. ...... but I don't know what's going on."
A magic tool with its outer packaging removed. The basic flow of magic control (magi sequence) was very similar to that of the manaphone that Jin had given to various countries through the Nostalgia Party.
After observing the manaphone, we put the exterior back on. The basic design data is stored in the old man's memory.
"What else do you have?"
"That's this way, sir."
Fabius led Jin into another room.
"This is the golem we're using."
A black-gray golem. The same type as the one that attacked Jin and the others the other day and was repelled by Reiko and Anne. There were 14 of them.
"There were 20 of them, and as you know, six of them were destroyed by Jin-sama the other day.
"Oh, I'm so sorry."
Only Jin could say such a line. If the old man had moved them, he would never have said this.
"Two of them are stuck, I'm afraid."
"Let me see them."
Jin is especially interested in golems and automata. He immediately set about analyzing the two stuck figures.
First, the material. An alloy unknown in this world, but Jin knew what it was.
Stellite. A hard alloy composed of cobalt, chromium, and tungsten. It excels in wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.
There is almost no tungsten on this world, or rather on this planet. Adamantite exists instead, and Jin thought that the metal used to make this golem might have been brought from another star ......<>.
There is no muscular tissue, and it seems to be moved directly by magic power. No wonder its movements are awkward. It is a method unique to this region with its high concentration of free magical element (ether). The durability is high.
The only thing that was helpful to me as a human being was the material.
The reason it stopped working was that the ether converter had deteriorated over the years.
"The magic element converter (ether converter) has been used since those days. ...... Maybe the previous generation learned from it."
With these thoughts in mind, Jin had a substitute doll (Double), Reiko, and a mini-craftsman (Smith) help him repair the Golem.
The golem was still working, but the ether converter had deteriorated considerably, so it was replaced.
Incidentally, this area produced an abundance of magical crystals, so there was no shortage of parts.
"Thank you, Master Jin!"
Fabius bowed his head again and again as the remaining fourteen were now working properly.
Next was the lighting near the entrance.
It seemed that an overload had been applied to the safe parts of the lights when they had been partially disabled by the ether jammer's irradiation, and the magic circuit had been damaged.
This was easily repaired.
And now, finally, the illusionary warding.
"......This is ......"
The principle is similar to a three-dimensional image. Two or more projectors emit waves using magic power.
A visible is drawn where the waves from another projector intersect with the waves from another projector.
Since this is a three-dimensional image, it does not look strange from any direction and is not recognizable as an illusion unless you touch it.
Furthermore, the surface of the illusion reflects sound waves over a considerable bandwidth.
This also made it possible to deceive the auditory sense, thus enhancing the cloaking power of the illusion.
What impressed Jin was the use of magic power.
Here, <> does not mean in the broad sense, but in the narrow sense, and is used in the same way as <>. It might be better to say <>.
<> travels through space like light. They can be modulated. And at the intersection of two magic rays, visible light is generated due to interference.
This is the explanation of the old man who analyzed the data.
Anyway, the results of this analysis will enhance the defense network of Horai Island.
This was a big gain for us.
During this work, Jin found two markers which he thought to be transfer markers, and he removed them. This would prevent a surprise attack.
Jin repairs nearly a dozen other magic tools, including some that are not so rare.
Fabius thanked him for the umpteenth time as Jin repaired all the malfunctioning magic boards (plates) and circuits.
