1557 - - 42-18 Start of analysis
"Let me introduce you all. I'm Mr. Jin, and I'm going to start working here today.
I'm Jin. It's nice to meet you.
Rokou introduced Jin.
There were about seven members in the laboratory. A middle-aged man stepped forward and tapped Jin on the shoulder.
"I'm Dr. Carrion, head of the laboratory. Welcome, Jin.
"Welcome."
"Welcome!"
Everyone seemed to welcome Jin. On the surface, it was like.
"Well, Carrion, I'll leave the rest to you."
With that, Rokko left.
Jin, is that the golem you made behind you? It's quite a thing."
Carrion said as he looked at Hope.
"Thank you, sir."
"We are working on two projects at the same time. We're glad to have someone like you on board. Please come this way.
Jin was led to the laboratory. The room was about the size of two tennis courts, and several Golems were lined up in one corner.
Among them, there was a type that was vaguely familiar to Jin.
"First, the team is analyzing the golems used in the eastern countries."
About 10 damaged golems were lined up on the floor, as if they were being analyzed.
"And then there is the team that develops the newest Golem."
Carrion pointed to three golems lying on a workbench, which appeared to be in the process of being assembled.
"I'd like you to join the analysis team first.
"Okay, sir."
Jin headed toward the damaged golem.
Jin, welcome. "Jin, welcome. I'm the head of the analysis team, Rig Armor.
The leader of the team, Raig Armor, was quite a nice young man.
Jin looked around at the ten golems.
"I think I've seen this one and ...... this one."
The two golems looked similar to the ones used by the Unification Party (Unifiler), according to Jin's memory.
"Hmm, that's convenient. We, for our part, consider those two to be quite capable. We would like to analyze them as a priority.
"They are quite damaged, aren't they?
Both of them were in shreds, one was missing its left leg from the base, and the other was missing its right arm from the shoulder.
"They seem to be golems sent to stop a conflict that occurred five years ago. We were lucky to recover it, but we want to make a similar one, but we can't."
Raig Armor said in frustration.
"Hmmm ......."
Jin looked into the open chest.
"There's no control core (......)."
"Yeah, that's something else they're working on. They're not making much progress either."
"I see. ......"
Jin looks further inside.
"Are you sure you don't mind if I touch it?"
He asked the head of the team, Raig, and he answered, "Of course.
"Well then..."
Jin quickly disassembled the exterior from the chest to the arms.
"Oh?
Raigh couldn't help but exclaim at the vividness of it.
"......I knew it, this one is made of bio-materials."
"What? What? What is it?
When Jin mentioned the word "biomaterials," Raig seemed quite surprised.
"It's a material that can be obtained from demons."
"From demons? ......I see...... that's what it is."
Raig Armor then explained to Jin that he had no idea what muscle-related materials were until now.
"Yeah, even the Principality of Mercana didn't use biomaterials."
"Hmmm. In the first place, there are not many demons in this area, so such materials are not distributed.
For reasons unknown, there are apparently no demons in this area of the Laurentian Continent.
Jin guessed that it might have something to do with the concentration of free magical element (ether).
"Well, isn't there any bio-material in the Principality of Jagus, as it is used for this golem?
"I wonder if there is no ......? I don't even know how to use it in the first place."
"Really?"
Jin was surprised.
"As for engineering magic, I have to say that this region is unfortunately very far behind."
His tone was almost regretful.
"I understand ...... somehow."
Jin guesses the approximate location of the Duchy of Jagus.
Since the Principality of Mercana is located on the continent of Pandor, this is probably at the western end of the Laurentian continent.
It should be connected to the Racir continent by a narrow isthmus.
In other words, to the east of this place, there are countries such as Mitsho and Fusor, which have little connection with magic.
Therefore, it can be inferred that there are few mages in this country, and that there is not much material coming into the country.
(I guess that means they are a backward country in terms of magic.)
As expected, Jin muttered only in his mind, since it might cause discomfort to others if he mentioned it out loud.
"Well, how do you get the magi crystals?"
Jin asked, and Raig looked as if he was biting a bitter bug.
"...... most of them are imported from the east.
Apparently, even in this region, magi crystals are rarely found.
The only thing better than the Principality of Mercana is that metal resources can be extracted to a certain extent.
"But you can make golems even without biological materials, can't you? In fact, considering the maintenance, biological materials are difficult to use.
This does not apply to Jin, but biological materials tend to deteriorate when the concentration of free magic element (ether) is low.
Conversely, if they are stored in an environment with a high concentration of free magic element (ether), they will last longer.
In response to this, the Golem and automata created by Jin are, without exception, highly functional in terms of their <> and > functions.
In other words, they collect a lot of free magic element (ether) around them before converting it into mana.
An < is a refrigerated storage with an ether ratio of more than 20 percent, and can store magical materials semi-permanently, but it is not far-fetched to think of it as having lost that refrigeration function.
"Well, I guess that's true. However, the output of the golem we have created is far below that of the combat golems I have heard about in the eastern countries.
"Is that so? Isn't that a mistake in operation?"
The words were uttered casually, but it was Carrion, not Raig, who took the bait.
"Jin! What did you mean by that?"
Jin was a little overwhelmed by the force of the question.
Yes, yes. ...... well, if you want to get power from metallic magic muscle (magical muscle), I think you need 1) material, 2) shape, and 3) treatment," he said.
"What do you call it? What do you mean? How much effect can you expect from that?
"Well, I think it will make a difference of ...... to 3 times, don't you?
"That's a lot! ...... Jin, I don't believe it. Can you do an experiment and show us?"
"Sure. Can you show us your experiment?
Jin checks what materials are available.
"You have enough mithril silver ......, copper, zinc, tin, iron, nickel, chromium, cobalt, and manganese ......," he says.
From there Jin selected mithril silver, copper and tin.
"I will make an alloy with this. The ratio is ......."
"Oh, I see."
"Five percent mithril in bronze? Is such a small amount really necessary?"
"More is not necessarily more effective."
"Well, I'm learning a lot."
Carrion looked at Jin, who was explaining in an easy-to-understand manner, with a bitter feeling.
