Magi Craft Meister

74-20. We've finally made a step forward.

"Pose" position asked by Jen.

It wasn't the air, it was space. The circumferential altitude is almost the same as Watcher. "

"... is that so?"

The observation satellite "Watcher" specializes in ground-based observation.

Therefore, Jin speculated that he could not find "Pose" at the same altitude.

"But Pose couldn't find the Watcher either, could he?

"Yes, Master (My Lord), the reason is that Pose is stationary when viewed against the ground."

You said you would always be directly above the southwestern part of Lassille.

Watcher is slowly circling over the equator. The orbit does not cross.

"Then it's only natural that we can't find each other."

Yes, and because of the Phantom Boundary, they didn't even find it from the moon (unique).

"That's right...."

Anyway, this reveals one end of the mystery of 'Pose'.

"Then you can already project Pose."

Yes, Master (My Lord)

The old man projected the footage using the "peeping telescope" onto a large magic projection window (magic screen). [M]

"Oh, this is the base of Pose..."

It was exactly in the shape of a 'cut the summit'.

The conical peak is stretched slightly forward and backward.

The bottom surface is planar and can be described as oval or rectangular.

The upper surface is conical because it is a "mountain". Vegetation is zero because it is a satellite orbit.

She is exposing her reddish-brown grey scalp.

"Just like when you cut the mountain."

That's what it looks like.

"Hey, can you visualize the Magic Barrier? I need to ask you something."

Got it.

At Jen's request, you do the image processing. [M]

Two seconds later, the 'magic barrier', which is normally invisible, was displayed in a translucent membrane.

"I knew it...."

Master (My Lord), what are you doing?

"Old man, is that Magic Barrier completely covering the cut mountain?

Yes.

"In that state, I don't know how I got the" Magic Barrier Unlocked. "

I understand what you're saying.... that's probably it. "

The old man projected rocks into another magic projection window (magic screen). [M]

I think this is the relay base.

It's about ten meters in diameter, according to you. [M]

It appears to be a meteorite captured by Ars' gravitational force, rarely found in satellite orbit.

"It's about a kilometer away from Poseidon, but its relative position hasn't changed, so I'm pretty sure it's going to be a good start."

It was judged by the fact that the magic machine (Magi Machine) was built into the interior, that it was posture-controlled, and that it always pointed the same side towards the "Pose Base".

If you want to prove it, you can send the Magic Barrier Release Signal again.

No, not now.

Even Jen was just wondering where he was sending the release signal if it wasn't wired.

For now, the overarching goal of "making Pose harmless" takes precedence.

"Now that we're in position, we can send in Pegasus 2 and Adriana."

Yes, I'll handle it.

"When it's time... is it" Adriana "?

I think that's okay. In addition, it would be better to bring "Sirius," "Prochion," and "Betelgius" to the guard. "

"I see....."

Adriana is a 300-meter diameter spherical ship and a Penglai Space Force flagship.

In addition, "Sirius", "Prokion" and "Betelgius" are spherical ships with a diameter of 100 meters, built by "Jack" of the moon (unique). It's a guard ship, so it's armed.

"Watch and don't hesitate to put it in if you think it's necessary."

Got it.

At the same time, Land 13 was there.

"It's a dead end...."

We were heading to the end of the aisle, making sure it was a dead end.

However, there is more a "hatch" than a door...

Only the wall of the stop was made of metal, not stone, and there was a hatch about 60 cm wide and 2 meters tall.

"Is it a trap?

If you look beyond the hatch with the new equipment from the Shinobi unit, the Clairvoyance Device, it looks like a small room.

There is no Golem.

I don't even know if there is a trap.

Short-range transfer is also possible, but we decided to open the hatch here.

Looks like the hatch can be opened and closed by rotating the round handle next to it.

One rotation, two rotations... twisting and the hatch opens up. There seemed to be no air pressure difference, and no air was drawn in or blown out.

Three, four... it's still too narrow for Land 13 to get in and out. It's only about 60 centimeters wide.

Five or six revolutions... Analyzing the air flowing from the inside is no different.

At seven revolutions, it is finally able to open about one meter, and again the land 13 observes how it is inside. Nothing in particular moves, and there seems to be no trap.

Well, let's go.

After deploying the "physical barrier (solid barrier)" and the "magic barrier (magic barrier)" and preparing for the "short range transfer", Land 13 went through the open hatch.

The size of the room is about 5 meters wide and 3 meters tall.

Looks like an empty room at first glance.

But the air conditioning, the dust, and above all, the floors, walls, and ceilings in this room were made of metal.

"Is there any special purpose?

Land 13, who thought so, decided to look closely at the walls first.

The first point is the other side of the hatch, the deepest wall of the room.

If there's something hidden, I've decided this is the most likely place.

And that prediction came true.

When the narrow, rectangular slit running on the wall was pressed, something like an operating panel appeared half-rotating.

"This is... dangerous to manipulate into the dark clouds."

Land 13, so determined, once again half-rotated the operating panel and stowed it in the wall.

And we'll explore in detail whether there's anything else hidden.

but nothing was found other than the operating panel earlier.

"... so far, let's go to the other side of the aisle."

Then, as you might know, Land 13 turned the hatch and turned the handle seven times to close it.

Well, let's go.

Land 13 returns the way you came.

Pass in front of the transferred room and beyond.

There were no doors or windows in the aisle, and there was a hatch in the corner.
