"Return home" "Return home" "I'm here"

She landed at Black Lotus and landed in the hangar using a ramp to be greeted by mechanic sisters. Both of them are wearing workwear and a maintenance bot behind them. He seems to be preparing Krishna immediately.

"What about Elma and Mimi?" "I'm resting in Krishna's room. It looks like this battle was a bit mentally hard."

Whisker is looking up at Krishna with a very sorry face.

"I don't think it was so dangerous ... I was driving very safely." "My brother, the screw is jumping in a strange place." "So much?" "So much ..." I saw it, but if you make a mistake one step, it will be full of holes skewered to the crystal life form "" It is easier to avoid crystal life forms than lasers "

Lasers are really unavoidable. When it comes to avoiding, basically there is only a way to deal with it that does not enter the firing angle. After all, you can only catch it with shield or armor.

"It's kind of wrong to compare with laser bombardment ... it's not like that, isn't it afraid to die from a mistake?" "Hmm ... I'm afraid." I don't feel like it. It's a matter of getting used to it. "Is it a matter of getting used to?" "Yeah, a matter of getting used to.

I can only say that. It's a lie if you're not afraid of dying from a mistake, but I think that's no different from driving a car in the original world. It is the same as erroneously operating the steering wheel on a pass, breaking through the guardrail and heading down to the valley bottom.

"Well ... I'll keep Krishna ready for the time being." "Oh, please. I'm not hit, so I'm going around the underbody, the generator, and the shield generator." "Oh, safety first" "Mochi Ronya"

Safety confirmation reed! I want you to do it like that. No, this is maz? Is it okay to work mainly on maintenance bots? However, it is convenient to be able to receive the maintenance of Krishna without having to call in this way. Of course there is a limit in relation to the amount of material that is piled up. After a while watching the maintenance bot with his sisters, head to the cockpit of Black Lotus.

"Welcome home." "Yeah, right now. What's the situation?" "It seems that the Imperial Space Force is eager to hunt the remnants of crystal creatures. It looks like they are disposing of and collecting the debris." Yeah, "Yes, but it's dangerous if you get out of hand."

The remnants of crystalline life forms have some value. For example, there are rare crystals that can be used as a raw material for laser cannon lenses, crystals that can be used as energy resources, and other crystals that have various useful values. However, it is very dangerous to touch the crystal that is still “alive” viciously. If you touch it with your bare hands, you may be eroded not only your finger but also your arm. After that, when a certain number of living crystals combine with each other, it seems that activity may be resumed as a crystal life form. Therefore, the Imperial Space Army is working to collect the remnants of crystal creatures, collect only the necessary parts, and burn off unnecessary and living parts with a laser. What is the treatment of the loot collected in this way? Doesn't it matter if it's a temporary income for the soldiers or a budget for the army?

"It's going to take a lot of time." "I guess it will take about two and a half hours." "The soldiers are also tough. I want to deliver my luggage and return home ..." Major Serena has also been notified of the delivery. Will he be contacted immediately? "

"Crazy"

A report was created based on Krishna's combat data and data observed at Black Lotus and Restalias, and sent to the command headquarters in command of the operation. He then appealed for a special reward for Krishna and Black Lotus, and the response returned was generally that way. Reports continue to be shared with other fleet commanders stationed in the Izröx system, and similar responses have been returned. I understand the desire to say so. But that's what he is.

"If you suddenly thought that the large species were half-broken and the behavior of the crystal creatures was strange, did this happen?" "Can you use this battle data for something? "Are you analyzing this battle data and using it for disturbance? Machine intelligence might or could be exploited, but it would be rejected. The assimilation of crystalline life forms is deadly for machine intelligence. They also have a desire to survive. "" It would be impossible to prepare such a sharp aircraft in the first place ... even if it is ready, it will be a torpedo boat almost assuming a special attack. "" Still a useless suppression ship I think it's better than that. "" Don't say anything about that. I'll apply for a duel with the white-blades

The topic of suppressionship is certainly dangerous. I'm not a white-blade, but some military aristocrats are enthusiastic white-blades.

"I think that we should recognize the achievements of this battle at once, and give them the appropriate reward."

I heard consent to my remarks.

"There is also the word punishment. There should be an appropriate reward for the war performance. "" In this analysis, I think the mercenary's work was great. I'll agree. " The achievement is obvious to everyone. Let's tell the accounting department "Thank you"

His promise with him was fulfilled. Is it safe for the time being?

"Is he staying at the base for a while? "How about. I heard you said you came here for a transport request." Now I want a little bit of excellent strength. "

Don't force yourself. He's a difficult thing that I've been soliciting many times before, but it won't jump. If there was a way to keep him, there would be only one.

"If you want to keep him, you need cooperation."

"We were able to get approval from the commander of the base and the other commanders of the fleet, so please look forward to a reasonable reward for this achievement."

Watch the Imperial Army work hard in the Black Lotus cockpit for about an hour. Communication arrived from Major Selena's restalias, and I met her again over the holographic display.

"That was a superposition. I was just feeling sad if I was just working. Oh yeah, can you get ammunition? I want to procure four anti-ship torpedoes with a reactive warhead." I think there is a stockpile for torpedo boats, so it's probably OK. The Imperial Space Army has ammunition costs as well. "

What is the treatment too good? No, it's appropriate because he made great war results in the form of helping the military. I feel my trouble sensor is alerting me.

"The request was confirmed, so please land on the outpost. I think you will be contacted by the main department, including the remuneration matters. " 』

I can't read the expression of Major Serena. Although she becomes a useless sister when she drinks, she is basically a perfect imperial soldier without any gaps when wearing military uniform. Maybe or she might be able to guess at her subtle changes, but I don't have such skills.

"... Well, thank you for your kindness, and then Black Lotus goes to the outpost." I think that it's okay because the warning of the crystal creature's attack has been released, but please be careful. "" Okay. Yes, I'm loading good dwarf liquor as a cargo other than the requested item, but here Can you do wholesale? ”“ Popular goods are in short supply, so I think you can buy them at good prices. I'll buy it later too. "" Don't drink too much. "" Of course. "

The mouth of Major Serena twitches with my words. Perhaps the memory that I did in the Allein system has gone beyond my mind. Major Serena still has a loan. Well, will it be in the form you got back one by one in this case?

"Take care of that, too." "Yes, then."

Major Serena nodded and disconnected.

"What do you think?" "I want to keep my husband and use it as a strength."

I'll get it if I get enough money. Military would make a payment. Is it possible to overestimate my performance this time and get confused? There's so much I can and can't do ... I can't do it even if I'm told that I'm going to deal with that horde alone. Of course, you know it's over, so I'm not going to say that.

"Well, I have to do something extraordinarily pretentious." "If you're working in an imperial territory, I think it's going to be a lot better if you have a connection with the military." "Yes, let's do our best."

Faction SOL also had content called quests. Basically, the fact that you can win a quest for a specific faction-such as an army or a giant company-to receive quests from such a specific faction will increase the favorability of the faction and receive various benefits. When you play mercenary, the factions of nature and the military relations increase. Basically, it is the army that gives the prize money for extermination of the pirate. The number and types of subjugation quests that can be received when the military's favorability increases, the ammunition restocking cost etc. can be discounted, in some cases it is possible to purchase military grade equipment that is not generally sold, and free You can get it. It's a very compatible faction for mercenary players. Of course, if you get along with the army of a particular country, you will be viewed as hostile by pacifist groups or armies of hostile nations, so it is not only the merit.

"And it's not necessarily just game-like benefits ..."

It was like that at the SOL, but it's not clear in this world how to get along with the military would lead to something. After all, this world is not a game. You can get caught up in the peculiar troubles.

"I hope it's not troublesome." "Agree. Aside from whether that wish will come true."

Does that mean that something must be rolled over? Actually, I think so too. Attack on a crystal creature that happened accidentally at the place I visited at the request, reunion with the related Imperial Space Command Major, nothing can happen .... Be careful.
