D Genesis, 3 Years after Dungeon Appeared

§ 167 Golden Branch 2/19 (tue)

"Hey, is that it?

After all, it was impossible to find it yesterday, and the frontage of the lizard, which turned back to the eighteenth floor and revealed the night, finally found a tree with orange fruit on the other side of the curved path after noon the following day.

"Well, what is it?

A building like an observatory stood on the hill beyond the forest as the curve was bent and the view opened.

"Buildings in the dungeon? What's going on with the slime?

It is a well-known fact that buildings in the dungeon are destroyed by monsters, especially slimes.

Cocoven rubbed his eyes, but the building never disappeared.

It's a militia or some sort of control facility.

With the militia, it would be possible to maintain the facility by stationing themselves. In fact, during Team I's invasion, the team of liaison officers built bases at the entrances and exits of each level.

"Management?", this orange one? In that case, it's best to harvest orange trees first.

A forest of edible plants that had never existed before. It was not strange to be under the control of the JDA or the state.

In that case, it was not clear whether the entry dance time would be applied or the controlled time would be applied, but if people were stationed there, the controlled time would have to be applied.

"This is unexpected... but, well, here we are. If you complain, think about it, and I'll pick it up as planned."

Jingura started acting as planned with the intention of escaping when she was told something she 'didn't know'.

If you don't earn just the potion money you used to get here, you're in a big deficit.

"Roger that. Now, to keep the area safe, pick a tree that we can take home with us."

A man called Ouikia was lost looking around.

"Even if they say so...."

Essentially, the orange trees growing here were large.

As long as it is rooted, the trees here are natural trees. In other words, the roots will grow naturally.

Large trees require more root hair to match the amount of branches. In other words, we need to cut the area around the root.

It would be desirable to have a tree as long as two meters, given the six-person carriage home... but there was no such tree in the glance.

"I want you to look for as small a tree as possible. It's hard to take back trees that are more than four meters long."

"Well, there's a bird spinning the stairs... Okay, let's find a little tree. Watch out for grassy pythons and dragon frogs."

So they broke into the woods looking for a small tree.

At Wakiya's behest, I decided to go and check the edge of the slope, which is unlikely to be sunny.

"But it looks like a good orange."

Beware of the neighborhood, Kokubun ripped the orange in front of him.

"Stop."

Heh?

"Information on whether it's safe or not has not yet come out of the JDA."

Er? Can you eat this?

"There are only six of us. If there's a guy with a stomach ache who can't move, he'll get in the way of his job. At least we'll do it when we get back."

That's what he said, and Cocoven stared at the orange and said, "Is this a clockwork?" and shouted into the backpack.

"What, do you want to saddle Avon?

Clockwork Orange is a working-class slang in eastern London, which means he looks decent but actually weird.

Having heard that, Kokubun said "groove of spine" (* 1) and laughed.

"What is that?

"I'll read as much as Bernard Shaw in any national language."

"Shaw?"

The moment I was stunned by the full-filled Doya's face, the frown raised my voice and pointed right diagonally forward.

"Python!"

A second line of vanguard retrieved a capture rod for the bore.

The stand-alone Love Phis Python is a large monster that is relatively easy to defeat, having established countermeasures if not caught or bitten.

With a bore catch stick, if you hold your head down, no matter how huge a snake is, they won't be attacked by the opponent as they wrap around the stick and try to escape.

You can close your head if you want to.

However, if other monsters mixed up during the battle or were raided, the danger jumped suddenly, so caution was necessary.

"It's a careless forest, but I'm glad the grass is short."

Jingura murmured in alarm at the intruding monsters.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

That afternoon, we were all over the office with Rosario on our foreheads.

It was just raining, and after Tsukuba, I was running around with the chores I had accumulated, but that was the end of it.

"I hope you can make an overpowering wheat mower quick."

"If we don't move on, Dr. Nathan's gonna intervene."

Speaking of which, Mr. Naruse asked me to help him.

JDA's in trouble too.

It sounded as if the rainy afternoon bell implied a disaster to us who enjoyed Goutara.

"Who is it?

I'm Cui Senpai.

"Did something happen?

"Everything is finished today, so I was contacted in the morning to discuss the New York event as well as the case of asking your friend"

Are you a friend of Sebastian's?

When Miyoshi opened the door, Cui, who had brought a man with plain eyes, took off his coat and entered the room.

"Oh, Shinji. It's finally over, because I've delivered 2400 of them."

"Oh, wow!

"Is it okay to receive a 20% increase?

"The contract is over 2,000 units, and it should be okay because there's as much as we can do."

"There are 86 schools in the national government alone, and more than 200 schools in the national government. Still, if we can get 10 units per school, we're close."

That's right.

"Instead, Nakajima has become a mummy."

Apparently, Kathy brought in a large number of DAD queues early in the morning for the package of equipment she was building.

That's something Simon's gonna want again.

Well, I'm sure that's the problem next time.

"What is it?

"Counterfeiting D Cards"

The way to use someone else's D card is the connection to counterfeiting the D card.

In any case, it has been found that the material of the D card is not a special metal. The display system is still a mystery.

The 14 character string engraved on the top of the screen, which was initially a mystery, was decrypted by the US decoding team - that is, Monica - and announced that it was an ID.

It was assumed on the dial used for the example ranking, but it proved to be the look.

Creating unspecified patterns will be difficult, but this time it is a counterfeit copy that takes place with authenticity on hand.

I feel like it would be surprisingly easy to reproduce just by appearance.

If you put that card down, you'll have cleared all the pre-test checks.

"... senpai really seems like a criminal."

"At least call me a famous detective."

Nevertheless, the thought process of famous detectives is no different from that of criminals. The only difference there is whether or not you actually commit a crime.

"If you want to peek into the abyss," he said.

"That's not such a big deal. Anyone will come up with it in time, and it's easier than using someone else's D card. Besides, if you're a monster in a dungeon, I'm not going to cross monsters like Nietzsche says."

"Ungehoyern (* 2)!

"German tickles the hearts of two cooks."

"Handelschmer (Chamber of Commerce and Industry), Lantville (Farmers), Eugent Helberge (Youth Hostel), etc., are cool for nothing."

"Well, anyway, if we're going to be perfect, we need to be able to identify fake D cards."

After all, there is that strange indication, there must be absolutely D factor activity there, and it is highly likely that Nakajima-san's reference machine will be able to judge it.

"That's fine, but why don't you know if we're having a party?

That is certainly not a problem in this case. Rather, if you don't have to look at the card, you won't have to go any further.

That's right. And there seems to be some kind of change. "

"Isn't that right? Senpai, just take out the changes in values and generalize them at the NY event."

It is said that Nakajima has already created a reference machine for the real D-card owner.

After all, there were only two of them, so Gawa also generated them on a 3D printer.

"Ufufu, this is an increasing advantage. If you speak German, it's Fortile."

"Ufufu... you look more like a criminal than I do."

"Excuse me, at least say entrepreneur."

The thought process of a successful entrepreneur is no different from that of a criminal in that it is not governed by rules. Maybe there's only one difference between being arrested or not.

"No, that's evil. Smile doesn't sound like an entrepreneur."

"Boo."

"No, you guys, it sounds like fun, but it's too much derailment."

Cui interrupted and introduced a plain skinny man.

"So, this is Tanokura-kun Ryusuke." I know you. Analytical chemistry is your specialty. "

"It's Tanokura. Thank you very much."

"It's Yoshimura. Nice to meet you. Could it be about the refractive index?

The mysterious substance liquefied by eyeball crystals asked Cui to analyze the change in refractive index of pure water, and through her, she introduced me to an expert in analytical chemistry.

However, it has only been about ten days, and I wonder if there is any conclusion yet.

"Yes, it is."

"If you don't bother to go, just report the results..."

"There is no demo!

"Oh?!

Mr. Tanokura stepped out of his body and said so.

And Rosario, who was astonished, flew from above his head to above the board on the beam. I mean, have I ever had a rosary on my head? Objectively speaking, you're a weird guy, that's....

"What do you think? Calm down."

Cui calms him down with a bitter smile.

"What the hell is this substance?!

"No, I didn't know that, so I asked for it."

He calmed down slightly to the reasoning he said with a bitter smile to Mr Tanokura, who spoke in a momentous manner.

"Yes, that's right. It's been ten days since I took it in, so I almost did my best to deduce an analogy from the measurement results."

He said after he took a breath there.

"This liquid, in a nutshell, eliminates dielectric dispersion."

"Yuko?

"In other words, it eliminates the frequency dependence of the dielectric function."

"I don't know."

Tanokura-san finally started explaining when he raised his eyebrows.

"The refractive index, as you know, is the coefficient used to calculate the velocity of light traveling through the medium, calculated at the square root of (specific magnetic permeability x specific dielectric constant). In other words, the higher the specific magnetic permeability or the specific dielectric constant, the larger it becomes."

"We initially assumed that this liquid would be a magnetic fluid and raise the specific magnetic permeability, but it did not react to the magnetic field at all. In other words, it is certain to increase the specific dielectric constant."

Mr. Tanokura pulled the materials out of his bag.

"It's in the science chronology, but the specific dielectric constant of pure water is about 80.36 at 20 degrees Celsius."

"Eh? You can think of the specific magnetic permeability as almost 1."

"Yes, because it is almost transparent, you can assume that the extinction coefficient is 0."

"So, the refractive index of water is close to nine?

80.36 square root.

"8.964."

Yeah?

7.9 That's not much of a commotion.

"However, in a sufficiently low frequency region, the curve is"

Tanokura-san said so, drawing water molecules on paper.

"For liquids with molecular polarity, when an electric field is applied from outside, polarization forms in the same direction as the electric field"

"So the molecules point in the same direction?

Yes, yes.

"There are orientation polarizations, ion polarizations, electron polarizations, etc., but anyway, in the lower frequency bands, they all work to form specific dielectric constants."

Align the depicted water molecules onto the paper. Pretty good.

"I think polarization is really appropriate, so you can think of something as pointing right on the top side of the waveform and pointing left on the bottom side of the waveform."

"So the higher the frequency, the faster it turns right or left."

"That's right. When the area is largely radio waves, molecular motion begins to lag behind the inversion of the electric field - that is, the inversion of the orientation polarization. Still, if you try to follow it, the molecule moves violently and generates heat. So it's a microwave."

Haha

It takes physical time for molecules to turn right or left.

If the frequency is low, the molecule moves well in time and aligns beautifully, but if the electric field inverts faster than the molecule's travel time, the molecule does not align beautifully and the dielectric constant is affected.

The irregular movement of molecules at this time generates thermal energy. Using this principle is the microwave.

"Beyond that band, the inversion of the orientation polarization cannot be followed at all by the inversion of the electric field, and there is no orientation polarization."

The subject of the refractive index in this case is visible light.

The frequency at which the inversion is delayed, that is, the dielectric heating occurs, is about 10 to the sixth order, and about 10 to the tenth order. The microwave is a 10 to 9 order.

In contrast, the visible light will be between 400 and 800 terahertz, or 10 squared orders. That will eliminate orientation polarization.

"So the higher the frequency, the orientation polarization disappears, and only the ion polarization and the electron polarization remain?

"Ultimately, it's only electron polarization."

"In other words, eliminating the frequency dependence of the dielectric function..."

"Even if the frequency goes up, the orientation polarization remains."

"What principle?!

Mr. Tanokura shook his head in the dark.

"I don't know. Measuring and estimating the phenomenon was enough."

I see. It's only been ten days, and I think it would be better if we could investigate to that point.

"Anyway, this liquid is relatively insoluble, but it dissolves in pure water up to a concentration of about 1% at 20 degrees. So we measured the refractive index by concentration and frequency."

As far as the table was concerned, there appeared to be no significant change in refractive index up to a concentration of about 0.002%. And there was little difference between frequencies.

"Senpai, this is..."

"You can make 50,000 times as much liquid."

"If you can recover it by distillation or reuse it..."

"It could be a small amount of Eli, and we're going to have a 7-nanometer ArF immersion exposure device. Would you like me to bring it to Nikon?

NIKON is a manufacturer of immersion exposure equipment.

If this liquid is likely to be practical, it must be appreciated the most.

"Um, I'd like to continue my research if possible... but I actually went up to that request today."

Mr Tanokura raised his hands, probably.

"When it comes to research, what kind of research do you do?

"No, it's the mechanism of action of this substance, the identification of molecules, and eventually, the synthesis."

"Hmm...."

(Miyoshi, what do you think? If it's a D factor entanglement, wouldn't that be a waste of analysis?

(If a molecule can be identified, synthesizing the same molecule will most likely not have the same effect)

(I don't know....)

(But senpai. Don't you think it's worth a challenge, even if it's for nothing? The foundation is important)

Well, that's true.

"I see. I don't know what happens, but I'll keep it for a while."

"Oh! Thank you!

"However, the outflow is NG."

"That's enough! I'll leave the materials behind, so don't forget the rest! Experiment now... ah, here's your contact information!

Mr Tanokura took out his business card and put it on the table by now, and went back with a nice greeting.

What a noble man you are.

When I said that to Cui with a bitter smile, she repeated her usual line to Miyoshi.

"Well, the guy with the science system... right?

"The explanation seemed pretty decent. It's hard to be insulted."

"What are you despising?"

Are we done talking about this? As soon as the glass came out of the sofa, it became round on the sofa and shook its tail.

"Oh, yeah. Cui Senpai, we leave for New York on the 21st."

I was surprised to hear that.

"Well, have you decided on a date yet?

"Of course, it's a miracle that a big exhibition hall was rented a month ago."

I see. The International Exhibition Hall has been buried for a year.

"Speaking of which, I heard you made it Emirates, but everyone was very convinced to go around Dubai."

"Well, I guess that area was squeezed out....."

Yes, Cui muddled his words.

Ah, was it Tsuji?

"That's right. Everyone was pushed off by the edge. The only problem is the late night flight, so they use the flight where dinner comes out."

"Ha, mania is not a date."

She is an iron on a plane. What do you mean by airplane? Riding Toby? Riding Pre? None of them pink.

"Anyway, as soon as Cui Senpai and the others leave, we need to announce the equipment owned by the D card. Please complete the reference machine."

You said you'd make the final adjustments when you woke up.

"Please. Shouldn't Nakajima-san's personal account be used to transfer the rewards before the trip?

"It's better to keep it as company income, but it's less taxable. We have a company deficit."

Cui said that with a smile. Of course, I'm not going to pay you a dungeon tax.

After a meeting about the New York event for a while, Cui went home in the evening.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Orange trees brought out?!

Saiga was not surprised to repeat the information she had received from the Guild Division on an emergency basis.

"Yes, they say it's a lizard."

Didn't you make it a prohibited item?

"It was Sunday morning that I was handled as a prohibited item in line with the Dungeons Agency's request to stop harvesting."

"Dungeon regulation rules....."

"Yes, it was Saturday that the lizards came in."

There are no holidays in the dungeon. And there is no contact within the dungeon.

Therefore, it was decided that the rules in the dungeon would apply from the entry dungeon after the regulated time.

"I wish we had regulations in place by Wednesday...."

It's a later festival where I regret it.

"But you often grabbed a tree from the 21st floor. Rather, it didn't disappear as soon as I pulled it out."

Maybe it's because he's still alive.

Ah.

If that's what they say, yes. There are also stories that monsters can be taken out. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a stampede.

"That's how I dug the dungeon ground."

You were lucky.

The ground and walls of the dungeon are indestructible items, but they can be dug to some extent, for example, where there is soil.

Whether the roots of the trees are devouring the indestructible parts of the dungeon depends on the location.

"But even if you can't take it out, you need to know where you're going. After all, even one branch makes a scene in Tsukuba. A single tree doesn't know what's going to happen."

That being said, it is a delicate thing to say that it is the job of the Dungeon Management Division.

From now on, I felt that these grey zone problems were likely to increase, but the Dungeon Agency was originally supposed to have been created for this purpose. The problem is that you can't make quick decisions or act for discussion.

Sometimes the problems caused by dungeons could have been fatal.

"For now, with the license at the time of sale, we can go to the end of the sale...."

"Don't fool around."

The JDA is neither a law enforcement agency nor a violent device. If we can't control the dungeon exit, we'll have to leave it to the laws of each country.

But...

"Follow the license and identify the route."

"I see. And after that?"

Saiga shrugged her shoulders deliberately.

I'll leave it to someone who might have something to do with the agency.

That said, raising the receiver, Saiga pressed the number of Terasawa.
