Magi Craft Meister
83-03 Start of the meeting
The "Decontamination Promotion Conference" has begun.
The first is to share information on the overview of contaminated areas that Deus Ex Machina investigated.
"This is the Bororon Wilderness." Some areas show some grass and shrubs, but rough terrain is generally spread out. ”
Makina shows the image projected on the large magic projection window (magic screen) and explains it.
"This river... the Gondoliers, who were called 'Demons' at the time, invaded along the valley upstream of the Border River." It's called the West Route. "
Oh, I see.
On the north side, there were many relatively low mountains, and the terrain was spread out easy to pass.
"At that time, this area of what was said to be the Bororon Plains seemed to be a fierce battlefield. Isn't that right, Lord Arnold?"
That's right. There's a mine to the east, isn't there?
"Yeah, it's a pheasant mine."
“It was the most intense battle in the west. At that time, it was a barn area and a big producer of wheat.”
"I see.... the contamination around here is the worst I've seen."
"Demons" designed heavy metal pollution to disrupt food production. That purpose was fulfilled.
"... I was supposed to go south to live better, including food... what a contradiction"
Delphina says spicily.
"That must be the proof of being manipulated."
Lorona's voice also looked sad.
Heavy metal contamination seems to be spreading around this area.
"In other words, the farther from it, the less contaminated it is."
"Jin is right. But it's not that simple. The pollution from here to the south, to the town of Bororon, is pretty bad."
Hmmm.
"... let's call it 'heavily contaminated area'."
That's what King Marcel's brother named him. I have no objection.
"The surrounding area is a" "moderately contaminated area" ", and the surrounding area is" "a" "lightly contaminated area" ""
Agriculture and Forestry Minister Bowani continued to follow suit. This was also accepted.
"... Now, here's my suggestion." We recommend decontamination on a trial basis by selecting a location from the list of moderately contaminated areas. ”
Lorona expressed her opinion.
"The reason for choosing a 'moderately contaminated area' is because this is a 'trial'. Mildly contaminated areas will be a little easier, and severely contaminated areas will be more difficult. I think it would be appropriate to determine the work content and man-hours."
“I see. In Mildly Contaminated Areas, it's too easy to identify.”
“Yes, and I thought it would be too time-consuming in Severely Contaminated Areas.”
Hmmm.
“I would also like to ask you to confirm the effectiveness of decontamination by planting Wassa 'oi and Aretinomaki on a 'mild', 'moderate' or 'severe' model site.”
"That's good, isn't it?" How much area do you plant? ”
"That's right... about 100 square meters would be enough to retrieve the data."
I mean, one earrings.
It will be that way.
"I have no objection to the way it is done."
In the early days, it's better to collect all kinds of data efficiently.
Kiku Maskawa and Delphina of "Agricultural Research" also agreed.
Since there was no objection, the meeting went further.
“Next, let's decide on a potential location for the Soil Survey.”
It was proposed by Kiku Maskawa of "Agricultural Research". The Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, Bowani, also nodded.
“Well, first of all, 'heavily contaminated areas'.”
“I think that's good. It looks like it could be anywhere in the area. The problem is" moderately contaminated areas "and" lightly contaminated areas "."
Kiku Maskawa and Bowani tell everyone to talk about where to go.
"The decontamination test candidate sites should be selected from the" "Moderately Contaminated Areas" "...."
"So, it's south of the wilderness, close to the town of Bororon."
I'd like to select about two more places.
"That way, we can also compare data."
That's what the two people in charge of soil research said.
With that, Makina opens her mouth.
Well, why don't we do random soil surveys?
"Huh...?"
"If you can teach me how to investigate, I'll have my golem do it."
Huh!?
”But, Makina-san... you can do it, right?”
Well then, I'll help you too.
"Jin, Jin-san too!?"
“Then why don't we just concentrically sample the center of the contamination and look it up?”
Arnold also expressed his opinion.
"That's right.... how, by the way?"
Jen asked Kiku Maskawa.
“Well, if you drive a metal pipe for soil sampling into the ground, and you turn it around and pull it out, it will come out with the soil sample in the pipe. We need to analyze it."
"Ahh... I see"
Having heard that, Jen thought for a moment and then made herself aware of the idea.
"The tip of the pipe in the cavity... is closed, and it is sharpened and pushed into the ground." If you hang the [Analysis] magic tool inside the pipe and pull it up from the bottom to the surface and analyze it, the results will be immediately available.... heh? "
……
…………
………………
The three people in "Agricultural Research" were exaggerating.
"That's great, Jin-san. If you don't mind, after we finish this job, why don't you make us some magic tools as well?"
Yeah, that's fine.
Makina also called out to Jin like that.
"... Jin, if you can tell me how it works, I'll make it too. If you two do it together, I'll be ready in no time."
Oh, that's right.
"Jin-san, um, the three of you are still chanting..."
There, Delphina, the one she saw, cut her mouth.
"Huh? Ah... uhh?"
"... I forgot that Jin-san is such a person... um, please help me..."
"Oh, yeah, I'm sorry."
"No, I remembered what the Mutu family told me before I appeared in [Avalon]..."
"The Mutu family... is it Mr. Ataru?"
Atal Mutu is the current chief of Mitsuho.
“Yes, my parents are next door.”
Is that so?
"That's why I used to play with that girl Michal, so I heard a lot of legends about" Magic Engineer [Magic Craft Jazz] "."
I see.
The Mutu family was the chieftain of Mitsuho 400 years ago, and they are also familiar with [Magic Craft Jazz], the second-generation magic engineer.
In Mitsuho, he made various things (said to have messed with them), so he imagined that what happened at that time would have become a legend...
