12.2-12 Capital Retrieval Operations 12

"... check status"

The tempo checked the situation indifferently, saying that his plane might have taken some damage. Because she knew that even if she was struck by a direct shell, her mobile armor would not be damaged by a direct shell.

Moreover, her mobile armor is equipped with an automated repair system with a micromachine, like her own body and energy gear. Unless the tempo was damaged enough to be thrown from the inside of the plane to be called a blast, it would have been impossible for her plane to be disabled.

"... a small dent in the external armor. Is it a mortar? Well, it's a level that can be covered by vehicle insurance (micromachines)."

While the tempo talks like that, the micromachines move on their own and repair her airframe.

In the meantime, Tempo began to see the status quo where he was placed, without moving from the spot.

"(... this plane should now be transparent by a holographic system. Why did they find out where they were? I don't think it can be used because it's in the woods. That means... they used magic like a" net "that could detect the movement of objects in advance. Or it's not magic, it's a physical sensor... in any case, it would be a good idea to move from here)."

Put something like a wire in the woods, and when it cuts off, fire a shell at it.... Though I imagine that there was such a primitive trap, I could not visually confirm it, so it seems that there was no conclusion.

Because rather than saying what the trap was or how it was attacked, she felt a strong sense of discomfort in the forest herself and focused on you.

"(Is it the magical" infinite corridor "of spatial control that goes around the same place? Or magic?

According to the information, the forest was cut off a long time ago, and the capital of Ecleria should be seen. But no matter where you go, there are no signs of the forest falling out... Tempo couldn't help but think that he was trapped by his enemies at this moment.

"(sensors normal, no problems with the view....)"

Tempo observed the surroundings over the various sensors mounted on the mobile armor. But there's nothing that bothers me... Sometimes her mobile armor wasn't equipped with sensors that could detect magic... I couldn't find anything particularly unusual.

"Very clever.... then."

Tempo started the wireless communication system with the assumption that he was caught in a trap.

"Potential"

I decided to have the potentials, who would be hundreds of kilometers behind me, confirm their whereabouts.

Fortunately, the radio waves seem to have reached the potential.

Yes, Mother.

"We may have fallen into the enemy's trap. Can you reverse detect the source of this communication wave and confirm my position?

Please wait a moment.

Then a few seconds later. Potential contacts are coming back.

I have received confirmation. Now she seems to be in the woods near King Eclaria's capital, but she seems to be trapped in an amusement field made of magic. "

"Do you know that much? Very good."

Thank you very much. We're closer to magical creatures than machines, so we're good at detecting magic. "

A waltz processed micromachine based on special metals made by Lucia. The Potential, the Collective, seemed to see a good flow of magic.

Results--,

"Now, let's compare the opponent's magic with the performance of this airframe."

—— The tempo pushed its own throttle lever forward until it was fully open to get out of the captured field.

At that moment, her airframe accelerates straight. Whether large trees were growing in front of him, rocks were rolling, or other obstacles such as traps were rolling, he went forward, tearing down and destroying all of them.

Speed 100 km/h, 200 km/h, 500 km/h... Accelerate further and continue to accelerate beyond the sub-sonic speed of 900 km/h, which is the same speed as the jet passenger aircraft.

Insulation compression began to develop on the surface of her aircraft. The air hits the sound wall, loses escape, and starts to build up heat in the front of the plane.

And soon after--

Dgoaaaaaaaahhhh!!

There was an explosion. It is proof of exceeding the speed of sound. And...

"You passed out without any particular problems."

--It was also the sound of the destruction of the "infinite corridor" prepared by the Ecleria side.

Shortly afterwards----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"... it's almost the modern world."

—— Concrete buildings and homes. And cars running through that gap, or aircrafts floating in the sky... It seemed to be a landscape lined up with substitutes that greatly exceeded the world's science and technology.
