Magi Craft Meister

86-09 Hope, Undercover

[Mysterious Golem] became interested in Hope.

It is a reaction that I had estimated to be quite unlikely, if not unlikely, as an old man.

However, it was not unexpected, so we are working on a response.

Hope, if you can get to their base, go.

Instructions were given by the built-in magic communicator (manacum).

Hope's performance is expected to be several to several tens of times that of the mysterious golem.

In addition, there are "Defensive Shield (Aegis) Modification" and "Transfer Device", so we do not see 99.99 percent danger.



"If you want my information, I want you to disclose it."

"Hmm..."

The spokes golem thinks for a moment and responds.

Then, will you come with us?

Is that okay?

It doesn't matter.

"Then let's go."

All right.



The exchange is also observed by the old man in the "Peek Telescope (Peepers)".

The audio used Hope's audio data, so I listened without divulging a word or phrase.

Judge and give instructions.

'Perhaps they will take you to the base and make you a prisoner. Therefore, please go with them under the pretence of being deceived. "

Roger that.

”But if you feel unsafe, please retreat immediately. Don't worry about Master (My Lord)."

Okay.



Hope's exchange with Old Man ended in about 0.2 seconds.

Hope, who has a clear course of action, acts with the [Mysterious Golem] in a dignified manner.

Twenty [Mysterious Golems] turned to the right, surrounding Hope and returning to the way they came.

(Hmm... at least 10 of them went straight ahead, and I thought at most 10 of them were going to escort me... but I didn't expect all the golems to act together)

Hope himself was surprised by the actions of the [Mysterious Golem].

And this strange party arrived at One Box Car.

Get in

"What is this place?"

"You may not understand, but you can move from one place to another in an instant."

Oh, that's interesting.

I may not be able to come back, but are you coming?

Even if you say no, you're going to take her with you, right?

"That's right."

There are twenty "Mysterious Golems". You probably don't think that it would be as easy to force a single Hope to capture, but with 20 of them here, if Hope noticed that, it would kill them all in less than a minute.

Of course, I didn't do anything to get a clue this time.

The transfer magic circle was painted on the floor of the [One-Box Car].

(Is this the real thing?)

Although it has already been confirmed by the old man, it is in an unprecedented form.

The main magic circle is the [Transfer] magic circle, but two small magic circles accompanying it are depicted as [parasitic].

These two magic circles are the liver.

(It seems that these two free magic elements (ethers) are transformed into magic elements (mana) and magic elements (mana) are supplied to the transfer magic circle.)

In other words, it plays the role of "magic transducer (ether converter)" and "magic furnace (mana driver)".

There were some magic circles that added such functions to one magic circle, and some that were stacked magic circles, but this was the first time I had seen such a composition.

Lao-kun described it as a practical configuration rather than functional.

Because of this, the two added magic circles solved the biggest drawback of the transfer magic circle, "slow startup" and "can't be used continuously".

That's why the [Mysterious Golem] and Hope, or 21 Golems, were transferred one after the other by the Transfer Magic circle.



The transfer destination was a common metal hole.

(Communication is... possible... but... the concentration of free magic (ether) is quite low)

Hope's "Magic Reactor" also supports the thin concentration of free magic (ether), and it has a built-in "magic reservoir (mana cylinder)" that can be operated for a whole day even in a space where there is no free magic (ether) at all.

So there is no hindrance to behavior,

Is this your base?

When asked, the spokes golem seemed surprised.

"... can you move? You're more powerful than I thought."

Yes, that's how you made it.

I see.

However, the spokes golem did not say anything further and left the hall in silence, leading Hope.

The walkway is also made of metal. It is about five meters wide and wide. It is also five meters high.

There was air, but there seemed to be little oxygen. mostly nitrogen.

In nitrogen and oxygen, nitrogen is a little lighter, so the vocal cords voice is slightly higher, but it was not particularly difficult to hear.

(It looks like the metal material is... carbon steel. Therefore, it is filled with nitrogen to prevent oxidation.)

As he walked, Hope analyzed.



The spokes golem stops silently after walking about 20 meters.

"Here we go."

It was in front of the door.

It's about three meters wide and three meters high, and it slides left and right.

The door opened slowly.

It's dim inside.

The spokes golem stepped forward. Hope followed suit.

It was inside a hemispherical dome.

Thank you for coming.

A metallic voice resounded.

"... magic brain?"

Well understood. That's right, I am the Magic Brain "First" that oversees this base. "



Hope's condition was constantly watched by the "Peek Telescope (Peepers)" operated by the old man.

Then, the "Transfer Detection System" is also fully operational in order to find the transfer destination in a complete state.

At the same time, Hope himself became the "marker" of the [Magic Power Detector (Maggi Radar)].

I found it

And the Old Man brilliantly identified the position of the [Mysterious Golem] 's base.
