Level 99 First Territorial Management by Adventurers

"Oh dear, what's the matter..."

Chicago was ruined in 2070 and literally erased from the map.

At the base of a skyscraper that doesn't look like a remnant of the past, Yutu scratches his chin with his unexpectedly supple fingers.

Why did Velga send the past - the past - to all the starting points?

Youtou didn't want to jump easy because he understood the intention perfectly.

It's a big deal, so let's do sightseeing.

I don't want to?

However, Asagina's reaction was not overwhelming.

It's too boring to be joking.

If you're serious, you can't save me.

Asagina's eyes were colder than the wind blowing into Chicago.

"Velga, your grandchildren are just getting less attractive."

"It's like a middle-aged man who can't grasp the distance from his daughter after a long visiting day, Professor."

I've never had that kind of experience anyway.

Even a professor like that would be welcome to the Empress.

"The defense range is too wide..."

When I made the heatmap, it was going to turn bright red. There is no point in visualizing it.

“In the meantime, would you like to talk in a calm place?”

Makina takes care of the situation by voice from Amagina's mobile terminal.

As expected, I didn't project a half-twin maiden avatar, but I didn't abandon its function.

At the end of the three-dimensionally projected arrow was a coffee shop that was also expanding in Japan.

“It's a store with private rooms. Of course, I'm free."

"Just in time. It'll help us to investigate."

"It's the best way to thank me."

Complete your reservation to order and pay.

For Makina, a super AI born in another world, it only takes about two seconds.

"There's no way I could have an account in this day and age." How did you settle it? "

“Don't worry, I've linked it to the professor's account.”

Yeah. Makina used to increase my savings.

“Yes, money is lonely.”

Mai Yu Na, a little. No, I didn't explain much.

However, it is not possible to leave it at Yutou who enters the store without worrying about it.

In the end, the two of them walked in side by side.

Large windows are automatically controlled to prevent the sun from hurting your eyes. Even so, it is beautifully adjusted to be immersed in the atmosphere.

However, it seems that it was not a luxury store with a robot clerk (in the 2050s, humans are still cheaper), and the human clerk is informed of the reservation code and guided to the waist.

Great space for 5 or more people to relax in.

The natural wooden table is not decorative, but the sofa is more supportive of your weight.

Relaxing often. Two people brought their own coffee.

I was wondering if the chip culture would become obsolete after all the electronic money, and it was kept in place by adding it at the time of accounting.

That is, at the time of booking. Moreover, by paying a lot of tips, the staff's love is also good.

After completing my work, I quickly left my private room. Seeing off behind him, he took a breath of relief... It wasn't the humans who got him.

"Huh. It's pretty hard to live in a completely inconspicuous way."

Makina, who projected a half-twin maiden avatar three-dimensionally, shrugged her shoulders with the human society because of this.

The most emotionally rich creatures in the spirit body, humans, and super AI were undoubtedly those that had no flesh.

“It's an AI. I just couldn't get my avatar out, so I was stressed.”

Isn't it okay for AI to dominate the world?

"Don't try to blame me for the big events in history."

Well, if Master says stop, will you stop?

As a result, humans were able to continue to be the protagonists of world history.

For now, I feel calm and comfortable.

"That's... you're just paralyzed, pretty much."

Yuto and Asagina put their mouths on the coffee at the same time.

In front of the sight, the half-twin maid nodded in satisfaction with her arms.

I don't think so. I didn't think you were ascending to God.

"I can't believe my grandmother was just so young..."

"So-so, Master." That's what happens. "

If you look at the real-world examples, you can't say anything.

Was it bitter? Asayana adds milk to her coffee.

“Speaking of which, was coffee good enough for you? Instead, should I ask if it was good for coffee? When this happens, it's a classic to do evil in Susi bar's private room.”

I just ate sushi.

"Yes, 20 years from now."

More than that, Makina.

I wonder if it tasted satisfactory, but I put the coffee cup on the wooden table to my satisfaction.

You're taking proper measures, aren't you?

“Of course, we've finished the security work. This private room is completely secure.”

Easily hacked and controlled the surrounding network. At the same time, I put a patch on the part where there seems to be a problem.

Even the police, whether they're involved in the coffee shop, can't see what's going on indoors.

“No one noticed, so no victims. If it's not a complete crime, it's completely innocent."

Well, it would be a mistake to challenge super AI.

Yuto did it lightly.

Professor, would you like some magical defense?

“If there is a magically safe place, it will stand out.”

That's right, but isn't that red-haired empress aware that we're coming to this era?

You're definitely aware of that.

Roll the coffee as black as it is.

Caffeine has been an inseparable part of the Istas family since he was their master. Unlike Larsia, he's a friend who doesn't want to bring disturbances.

"And we're waiting like maidens for us to come." There's no doubt about it. "

"Is it a maiden...?"

Well, you're quite a romantic.

It's disgusting, isn't it?

"I'm sorry, my mistress, I'm really not feeling well."

Well, from the victim's point of view, that's right.

Yuto traced the edge of the empty coffee cup with his fingertips.

So, the case is today, right?

"Yes. Paleozoic monsters appeared this evening." It won't be a few more hours. ”

Velga deliberately sent us into the past. It won't take days to go live.

You don't have to wait, but it's hard to say you're welcome.

"I wish I had more allies." As expected, we don't have time for this. "

“With the help of the Smart Council (Danishmend), we may be able to do something about it.”

"No, I wanted to follow in the footsteps of Larsia's descendants."

The children of Larsia are coming to Earth.

If so, it should be possible to travel to and from the world of the blue covenant (Bluewars) in a limited way.

But Verga wasn't so sweet as to allow it.

I don't think it was a bad idea to give priority to my real name, but I didn't really expect to get in there myself.

No, I had to deal with it if I expected it.

Either way, it was impossible to ask for help outside.

"Don't let this prospectus get out of hand..."

"Don't look at me like I'm a concubine." You're loved, aren't you? "

“Rather, how do we stop it?”

You're right.

Yuto nods and asks for more information.

As Makina's avatar turned her fingers, a pyramid-shaped building floated on the wooden table.

“From the New Willis Tower, Velga's Simpa and her crew captured the building and turned it into a hostage paleozoic monster. The damage spread all over Chicago--"

"The nucleus has been dropped."

In the heart of it all, New Willis Tower is where it all began.

Its predecessor was the second tallest skyscraper in the United States.

A Chicago symbol featuring an antenna like two protruding horns.

Outside the observation room on the 103rd floor, there was also a full-glass observation deck called The Ledge.

After it was rebuilt by aging, it is called this.

Arcology and Culture.

A city in the shape of a building where consumption and production are completed in the building.

Education, entertainment and work.

With everything you need to live, people can end their lives without going outside the arcology.

Everything is ideally designed and fully controlled

Behind it, the Red-haired Empress waited.

I've been waiting for you.

Thinking of people visiting themselves -- all the time.

"This is the Arcology..."

After the coffee shop, Youtu's are the place to start. I was visiting the biggest and newest symbol in Chicago.

Yutu wore a white robe and remained in possession of the curse document.

However, the strange gaze was not directed.

In the 2050s, individual rights have become a highly social or political issue. Therefore, if you make a bad accusation, it can be ruined.

As long as it does not violate public order, you are free.

Of course, it stands out if it stands out or stands out.

“I've never seen arcology with my naked eye.”

"I see. By the time Maizuna was born..."

Trapezoid - Pyramid-shaped building. Rather, from a terrestrial perspective, it's like a mountain.

Rather than neck, I leaned back and finally saw the top layer. Even so, it is clear to the naked eye.

The spotless white giant tower is realized by AI-controlled smart glass instead of paint. On its own, it also had the function of solar power.

An environmentally friendly being born using extremely advanced technology.

A city in the shape of a soaring artifact. In front of the overwhelming sense of scale, I thought it was only a tiny bit more than a human being or an ant.

At the same time, it was humans who created and destroyed it.

You're not very surprised, are you?

"No, I'm impressed..." That's right. I don't think Zhu Yin would be happy. "

I liked sci-fi, too.

It's called an omnivorous meal.

Asagi's eyebrows twitched.

When I get a name other than my real name, I can't stay calm.

"Well, it's not floating in the sky like an aerial garden." It's big, but it's still realistic. "

"Well, that's right..."

After all, the Great Magician (Archmage), who called himself his grandfather, had a lot of strange criteria.

"I wonder if Velga is in that part of the sky..."

Further up from the top of the pyramid stands a normal skyscraper, which retains the appearance of an antenna protruding like a corner.

Perhaps the most important of these is the glass observatory set up in the sky. Because of the full range of AR and VR, there is more than a certain demand for raw impulses.

Some of them existed for tourists, and although they were not usually open, they also existed on the top floor.

“Are you in such an easy-to-understand place?”

Master's concerns are valid, but I won't take them off.

"It's a royal road in a bad way."

I am absolutely confident and don't have to be in anyone's shoes.

If so, you should be in the most prominent spot.

After all, Velga is waiting for Yuto.

Do you suddenly [instantly move (teleport)]?

No, that would be taken care of.

Simply forbid [Momentary Shift] or delay the transfer for a few tens of seconds and prepare to intercept in the meantime.

You have to pay for the shortcuts.

"That's why I think we should go into Arcology normally..." Even ordinary people can get inside, right? "

"Yes, but..."

Maiyina puts her hand on the long object hanging from her waist.

The cyber Japanese sword "Krikara" is deceived into the AR marker by Makina. This would also be mistaken as part of fashion, but security in arcology is not a city-wide ratio.

“Don't worry, we've already intervened in arcology security.”

”Is it that easy...?”

"As usual, he's a competent online runner."

It was not a ratio, but neither was different for Machina.

Yout is at ease. While being somewhat hesitant, Maiyina moves to the general entrance of the arcology.

Along with other tourists, the so-called moving sidewalk. I was guided inside on an auto-walk.

The system is really futuristic.

White, decorative and unobtrusive. At the same time, the passage is bright, but we don't know where the proof is.

While listening to an announcement about the history of arcology, he walked through several gates into a large space.

"Is there a park in the building?"

This is very spacious, isn't it?

The end of the auto-walk was full of natural vision.

The lawn is beautifully maintained and naturally artificial, but the trees are also planted and covered in greenery.

There was a pond like the park outside, and if I listened, I could hear the birds singing.

Wind blows that can only be thought of as nature itself, and if you look up, the sun is also floating.

There was a man jogging.

There was a woman practicing an instrument.

There was a family who sat on the lawn and stayed calm.

A space that can only be seen as real nature.

Asagina felt the definition of authenticity shake.

“This is more impactful than it looks.”

"You must be aiming for it." It's bold, isn't it? "

As you walk through the lawn talking to Makina, Asagina chases after you.

The slow pace allowed me to catch up quickly.

"What do you say? If you leave the park area, there will be a commercial area?"

You don't have to. There's nothing to disguise yourself with right now.

"Apart from the practical aspect, I'll buy you anything that you want from Amagina."

"I'm glad to hear it, but how can I say it?"

There is no thorn in the voice more than words. It must be true that you are happy.

"I see... Would you like to buy an arcology vacancy?"

I don't need it.

Still, it doesn't matter if you get it and sell it. But there's so much more to it.

“Rather, how do we get there now?”

"I wonder if we're going to the top floor..."

That's right, you can't get anywhere near it with your usual means.

If so, we'll have to go by force.

All of a sudden, I'm talking about illegal behavior, but technically, Makina. Magically, Youtu is taking care of it.

I met an old couple walking their pet, but even if they could understand Japanese, they wouldn't understand the content of the story.

“For now, security is within our grasp.”

"I trust you there, but..."

The question is, what are we going to do about it?

Do you want me to give you an evacuation order so you don't get involved?

He said, "Well, we're talking about a population of tens of thousands."

Where do you want to evacuate that many people? Unless it's planned in advance, it's not realistic.

”Still, evacuation drills... no, they're not from Japan”

"Evacuation outside the Arcology is not envisaged." There's an evacuation shelter inside, so you'll be there if you need it. ”

Well, there's no chance of an earthquake or water damage.

If so, could it be a fire or a terrorist?

It's ironic that the person who is about to commit the terrorist act should worry about it... "

“If you know security, why don't you go to the top of the law?”

“Yeah, it would be great if I could keep my drain down.”

“I'm very happy to be counted on, but to get to the top floor I have to go through the research floors of a highly secure company.”

Outside of the zones open to the general public, a person tag is required.

In addition, depending on its security clearance, the place where it is put is also different.

It can be cleared, but security is not only electronic.

“Of course, there's probably more than that around the top floor.”

"... yes, there are also human guards, right?"

If I put in a pizza or something, would you miss it?

"That's not true... isn't it?"

I have a score, but not enough to bet on.

Youtou stopped once and bought a drink for two at the vending machine.

It is set up as a matter of course, as is the case in Japan. Proof of good security.

"Thank you... oh, I just remembered." Aren't the men of the Red-haired Empress already mixed up? "

Rather than a subordinate, it's a simpa.

You must be a very troublesome fan.

"There's no way that's happening."

While walking, Asagina slaps the mobile device containing the Makina.

Youtou thought it was a very accurate expression, but he kept his silence. Dark Crowler, who had replaced Lord Malvat, was probably the head of the troublesome fans. There must be some other kind of difference.

However, I didn't seem to be able to explain it in a convincing way.

That's why we're changing our conversation in a constructive direction.

When that happens, it'll be from the outside.

You may have taken measures, but you may not have taken them at a distance.

Whatever it is, it won't move until nightfall.

You're running through the shadows, aren't you?

As soon as he drank the poisonous carbonated drink, Yutu threw it away.

Then, a cleaning robot appeared out of nowhere and retrieved it.
