Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Ooooooooooo!!

Bili Bili!!

A ground dragon shouted like half the body had been mechanized. Shake the air, vibrate the ground, and destroy the exterior walls of nearby buildings with sound pressure alone.

It seems that the roar of the dragon was not just a scream, but also a detection act using sound waves. A bat that flies in the dark has the same principle as a bat that flies ultrasound and perceives space.

The tempo groaned convincingly as the surrounding sound waves were monitored by mobile armored sensors as they efficiently bounced back to the dragon.

"I see... I'm going to use sound waves to pinpoint my position in the clear.... well, let me show you how powerful it is to detect."

And Tempo slowly knocked down the throttle lever while concentrating his nerves on the ground dragon in the mobile armor. Although the tempo's mobile armor had stealth performance against radar, optics, and sonic waves, it was not 100% perfect stealth over its presence in the space, so I thought I might be able to find it if I was good at detecting dragons.

And her plane gets closer to the ground dragon one by one: 50 meters, 30 meters, 20 meters and 10 meters. But...

"... you can't seem to find it."

--The dragon never turned towards the tempo. When she turned off the noise and moved, the dragon didn't notice any mobile armor.

Result.

"... it doesn't seem to be a big deal."

Tempo concluded, exhaled a little and decided to leave the scene. The next destination - specifically, the power plant or the substation - was likely to be located as soon as it arrived, using some form of attack, so I dared not attack the dragon.

Her behavior was entirely correct. It is stupid to attack just because you are interested or because you have enemies there. If you are an avoidable opponent, regardless of the mission, actively avoiding it can also lead to avoiding the risk of unpredictable events.

However ---

Uhhhhhhhhh!!

Gnnh!!

Zuuuuuuuuuuuu!!

—— as long as they didn't really detect themselves.

"Hmm?!

The tempo's manoeuvre armor, which was passing by the dragon's side and moving forward, was blown away by the sudden movement of the dragon's tail. The impact far exceeded the direct impact of the tank's anti-armor rounds, and her plane blew over 200 metres across the riverbed.

"Why?!

I wonder why I was able to detect it... Beyond the disturbing monitor scattered with white smoke and purple electricity, he glanced at the dragon. After that, the earth dragon opens its big mouth towards the tempo without moving a step ---

Thhhhhhhhhh...!

—— I started preparing to release a beam that seemed dangerous to me, not exactly dragon braces.

"(Beam? You need a living thing? Well, there's certainly a precedent for Lucia, so it's not strange to let go of the beam... We need to get out of here. What about the damage?... fortunately, is it minor? The hologram system has peeled off. It was my mistake to underestimate that dragon.)"

and the tempo to organize the situation in a fast thinking space. And she'll come flying-- trying to avoid the beam--

"... no way?!

—— I noticed the situation where I was placed and opened my eyes.

After leaving the steel mill, she moved almost straight up the riverbed. They bounced back 200 meters to the upstream dragon. In other words, the ground dragon, the tempo, and the steel mill were all on a straight line. What happens if the tempo avoids the beam here...

"(Are you going to take your people hostage?!

If the beam had reached the steel mill, there would have been a massive explosion, and it would have been obvious that the workers would have been harmed.

"(Are you saying it's okay to die because your own people will be reborn? Or do you mean we're all Summoners and we don't care if we die because we're not citizens?

I understand the tempo that could not be judged. This is my defeat.

"... potatoes, enders. Emergency Escape Program Activated"

"" What?

After telling the rear empty potentials and the operator King Enderucia that, before the two return, the tempo

Overboost!

—— Unlock the output limiter of your manoeuvre armor and advance towards the ground dragon at full speed....

Uhhhhhhhhh!!

Dgoaaaaaaaaaaa!!

With the beam flying towards the mobile armor, the surface of the mobile armor is melting with tremendous momentum---

Boom.....

--The emergency escape program, or "Anywhere (...) Door" developed by Cortex, was used to return to Mid-Eden.
