<Infinite Dendrogram>

Episode IX [Marshall II]

□ ■ [High-Level Pilot] Hugo Receps

◇ ◇ ◇

The clan I belong to is a clan of producer players.

Production jobs such as [researchers], [mechanics], [pharmacists] and [blacksmiths] originally existed in this world.

However, if you compare Tian to a player, often the player is better at technology.

That's because of his ability to grow as quickly as he did in combat, and how fast he grew through aids.

The quality and success rate of the items to be made depends on the DEX (clever) of skill level and status, and the dexterity of the hand in real life is irrelevant in normal production.

As a result, even amateur players can create items like skilled artisans.

The clan owner said.

"Unlike the battles that move the body, production isn't much different from the item production of MMORPG in an era when it wasn't VR, is it? That's why it's no problem for someone who stinks and is clumsy."

But he also said this.

"But now we're talking about building existing objects. Creating something new requires the power to conceive of it. If you try to create something that doesn't have an answer in the past, the supplies and ideas you need will be a lot of different digits."

Production in < Infinite Dendrogram > falls into two categories.

There are two types: “production” of existing items and “creation” of new items.

Neither one has the necessary ingredients, and it remains the same to create them using skills and status.

However, the creation of a new item must be created from the method, as opposed to the fact that the existing item should only be made in accordance with the method described as [recipe].

We cannot just want to make this kind of thing, but we need to have an understanding of the necessary processes and scientific and magical knowledge of this world, to grasp and create the necessary materials.

Yes, too much was needed to create new items.

Therefore, during the first six months of Infinite Dendrogram, only existing items and some custom items were produced.

It was our clan that changed that.

Clan owners caused some breakthroughs in their production skills.

It's a collection of real, skilled and knowledgeable human beings.

The Empire of Drife is a country with developed mechanical technology.

Although there were many differences with reality, such as the fact that the power of the machine was magic, there were still parts that overlapped with reality.

The owner used it.

Graduate mechanical engineering students, skilled craftsmen working in automotive factories, designers of heavy machinery, or players with real knowledge of a wide variety of machines, including vehicle and weapon maniacs, were brought together to work on the production of new items.

Regardless, it just doesn't necessarily mean talent gathers where we recruit.

So the owner set up a clear project goal to recruit talent.

That's the goal of creating a human battle robot.

Yes, there was still no such thing as a man-made manoeuvre weapon in Drife at the time.

Available for Drife at the start of the game were mechanical armor (power suits) [Marshall] and tanks [Geist], and there was no < MaginGear > as a man-type combat robot.

Therefore, the owner intended to produce it that still did not exist.

Many were attracted to that goal, and the clan gathered dozens of intellectuals and technicians at the time of formation.

That's how they had one purpose goal and began to carry out that project.

"All we need is knowledge and equipment and manpower and materials and gold and imagination and skill levels and luck and experimental benches. Come on!

is the owner's valve at the start of the project.

Too much needed.

But they made it ready.

They faced each other with machine knowledge, imprinted with magic technology, and repeated the trials and errors of integration.

Countless failures, material costs, and moving away members. While many problems arose, they pushed on.

"Whilst it was PO Project X," was the word of one ancient member of the Ginseng, many of whom nodded.

Although I didn't know the show by oligarchy, it seemed to be a story that would pass among his generation, especially the Japanese.

So two months in real life, six months passed in < Infinite Dendrogram >...... over many difficulties they completed a whole new item.

That's the man-made mobile weapon [Marshall II].

A weapon capable of mass production, with sub-dragon-class combat power.

As the first man-made manoeuvre weapon that existed ahead of [Marshall], which was mechanical armor.

On the occasion of the completion of [Marshall II] and the release of the recipe, our clan said it began to take its path as the largest guild in the Empire of Drife.

◇ ◇ ◇

The battle in front of the fort was gradually coming to an end.

"Yu-Go, Okja Hoko, [Cancer] 1"

"Roger (wi)"

Follow instructions from Cuco, who scouts in the fog, invert the fuselage and fire the [hand cannon] on his left hand to where he was taught.

[Musketeer], who was targeting this one with a magic firearm, fails to evade and is dispersed by an explosive shell released from [MRW03 Hand Cannon].

Only the arm holding the gun remains in the landing strip.

That gun, it's an old Imperial gun.

It seems that the spills are flowing through “that country” again.

"Next"

"Roku Lottery Hoko, [Fu Tao] 2"

Copy that.

Make a sharp swirl through the upper body of the fuselage and slap the [SRW02 Battle Knife] with centrifugal force on the [Warrior] that was approaching the rear.

The first was unresponsive and was cut in the order of armor, meat, bone, meat and armor and split up and down from the torso.

The second reacted, hitting the big shield [battle knife] to stop the move.

Unlike real life, this < Infinite Dendrogram > warrior is tough.

Many [Marshall II] opponents with more power than large heavy machines are able to prevent and injure attacks in this way.

This [warrior] was also quick to react.

I also have power.

But...

Your feet are gone.

I stepped on [the warrior's] feet with [Marshall II] 's while suppressing the movement of the great shield and [the warrior] with it at the pressure of [the battle knife].

The weight of [Marshall II], which totalled 10 t, was not preventable by the extent of shoes with iron plates, and [the warrior's] feet were crushed.

[Warrior] distracted himself from the shield with a non-voiceless scream, he doubled from the top of his head with a free [Battle Knife].

"Next"

"It's the only place I'm here, I can't make it."

"Copy that. Keep your perimeter alert. Pay particular attention to the direction of the fort"

Uh-huh.

First of all, it's clear.

"F......"

Breathe into the real feeling of finishing crossing a dangerous bridge.

Only my [Marshall II] stands on the battlefield and all the bandits are turned into corpses.

…………

It was I who created this miserable sight.

I have some thoughts about killing a lot of people.

But I don't have pain and I don't regret it.

Before I heard from Rebecca...... I knew about the existence of the Gozmaids Bandits before I visited Gideon.

Because I kept in mind the Gozmaiz Bandits as a force around Gideon when planning.

So far they have killed too many children and too many people who tried to save young lives.

If you have taken human life, there is no choice but to be killed by humans.

I (...) think so.

Though it is an arrogant and contradictory idea for the Immortal Master to speak here.

"... Well"

Engagement with the Gozmaids Bandits would look like my complete victory if I just looked at the results, but it never is.

My HP hasn't decreased by 1%, but the [Marshall II] damage is serious.

[Marshall II] 's armor has been tripled by the damage taken during the battle, and damage has accumulated in the inner frame. The left arm is also slightly slower to react.

Although there is no HP display on [Marshall II] that falls under special equipment like cars and ships, if it does, the HP gauge plugs into 30%.

Not so much, there was a struggle.

[Marshall II] of the robotic animated man-made robotic weapon itself, but to put it that way, that's also the inhabitants of the fantasy animated itself.

The axe that is shaken crushes the steel, and even the arrows pierce the armor.

If the clan faces didn't have the performance of [Marshall II] tuned up for their < Master >, if I hadn't been able to pull out the fuselage performance as a senior position [high-ranking pilot] myself... I would have lost under pressure from the numbers.

"Huh."

I breathed again and took the [MP Recovery Potion] Lv5 out of the item box.

Every time it moves, it consumes MP every time it fights.

My MP is now cutting 20% of its max time, and if I don't recover, the battle ahead will be tough before [Marshall II] damage.

"Yu-Go"

Release your mouth from the bottle of [Potion] and respond to Cuco.

"Something, Cuco."

"It wouldn't have been so much if I'd worn" Sukiru. "

"Ranri"

Indeed, if I had used Embrio and his skills, I would not have had a struggle.

On the contrary, I could have defeated him without taking one wound.

Because my skills are natural enemies to these kinds of deals.

Although.

"I can't do that. It wasn't until the“ plan ”started that I opened up that skill. You can't use it until then. That's what the owner has instructed me to do, and I made a promise."

I said, "Nobody's watching, right? You're not here, are you?

"Still. If I were to use my skills before the plan, it would be a situation where I really had to use them."

Fortunately, I'm not in that situation.

"Cancer."

"I'm aware.... Now, are there any children in that carriage who have been caught"

I can help the kids here, but if I do, they'll nurse me that the hostages are valid.

If there is ever going to be another battle, they will take the child hostage.

There are no more bandits left, or I hope Ray has exterminated the bandits in the fort, otherwise it would be dangerous.

Now I just have to leave it alone.

Though I was thinking so.

".................., Huh"

"Yu-Go"

"I know"

I breathed shallow and manipulated the lever to replace the [hand cannon] magazine with a spare explosive magazine that was jointed to my lower back.

Even during that movement, the movement of the left arm is still dull.

"Once we put [Marshall II] back in the [garage], we can fix it... but we'll have to give it up."

How many minutes doesn't seem to have that time?

I fired a [hand cannon] shell at the entrance and exit of the fort.

The bomb was an open door - it landed on the thing that was behind it, and it exploded.

The bombshell is so powerful that if it is a normal human body, the five bodies are dispersed and no pieces of flesh in kilometers remain.

But it didn't seem to be the case for the things that stand there.

"Stay and e. Besides, I'm a jerk."

With that said, there was a thing that appeared out of the fort without being overwhelmed.

It was a giant ghost.

Bull-headed but with only sharp canine teeth lined up in his mouth.

Its back length is so close to [Marshall II] that even the entrance to the fort, which is more than twice the height of a person's back length, seems cramped and bent over.

Obviously, he's not of the same character as the bandits he's been fighting.

A little, my body trembled.

"... to be seen as the head of the Gozmaids Bandits?

"Ooh. I'm the second leader of the Gozmays Bandits, [Strong Gladiator] Goz."
