Magi Craft Meister

Machina was invited along with Knight Ray to a basement facility in Qasimnore.

Leading the way is Golem "Farley".

It was a slightly wider hole through an opening that was disguised as a surface.

Machina speculated that the floor was scattered with a bit of soil and sand, and that it would be a place that served as an airlock connecting the outside and the inside.

And it's backed up by Farley's words.

This is a buffer room to avoid bringing in extra dust and garbage from outside.

Having said that, Farley guided the Machinas to the door in the corner of the room.

Walking around, it became a full-fledged underground facility.

Since there was an emergency light, both the machina and the ray were able to view the interior without any problems.

"Oh... this is from the [War of Magic], isn't it?"

That's right.

It seemed to be very well maintained, but didn't you stop at [Magus Running [Ether Stampede]]?

Of course I stopped. But it was restarted about 100 years ago. "

It's surprisingly late.

I was surprised as a Makina because I had been recovering my free magic (ether) concentration for a long time.

Hmm. I'm not sure why. It's just that it's true. "

"All right."

Machina switched thoughts, perhaps at some point she could see why.

Now is the time to concentrate on this underground facility.

"What's the security here?"

It's nothing. About 20 lowly golems.

What about the maintenance personnel?

It's different.... Look, there she is.

"Huh..."

Farley pointed to a four-armed golem.

Other than being four-armed, he is human-like.

After all, four arms is a good way to work.

That's right, but isn't it difficult to control the flow of magic (magic sequences) for four arms?

That's right. But it's been around for 750 years.

"Was that so?" [Basic control magic type (control system)] is an adriana type, right?

"Yes," said Sicilia Calceo, "there are many possibilities for the Adriana ceremony."

Oh, I see.

Indeed, the [Adriana-type] [Basic control magic-type (control system)] is highly scalable and easy to apply.

But isn't Sicilia Calceo the engineer of the [Magic Brain]?

That's right. However, that doesn't mean that you can't create a [Basic Control Magic System], and [Magic Control Flow] is similar to the Golem and Magic Mind.]

Well, that's right.

While talking like that, the machinas descend the stairs and go down to the basement.

About 100 meters underground.

It's pretty deep.

To prevent the magic of the detector system, we need to go this deep.

That's right, too.

The staircase circled in a spiral and continued deeper underground.



There were doors along the spiral staircase, but Farley ignored them all and went underground. Of course, Makina and Ray followed suit.

- Up ahead.

At the bottom of the spiral staircase. It was a small hall. A sturdy door that seems to be the best way to hit it.

For the time being, [unlocking code (password)] is set as security here. …………

It sounded like Makina was trying to hide it from me, but Makina and Ray could hear it.

(12345678...)

(It's one of the passwords you shouldn't have.)

They had a short conversation on the built-in magnetic communicator (manacum).

I don't know, Farley turned around and invited the two of them.

It's open. Follow me.

"All right."

The other side of the door was brighter than ever before.

This is the back.

Farley progressed steadily.

And the end of the aisle.

It was like a room for the [Magic Brain Stratigos].



Welcome, Lord Deus Ex Machina III. I can't provide much hospitality, but please take your time.

"Nice to meet you, I guess. I'm Deus Ex Machina III." Call me Machina. And then this is my escort, the Horseman Ray. "

I hope you're familiar with it.

This way.

"Stratigos" is cylindrical. It measures four meters in diameter and five meters in height.

It would be the largest in the world by size alone.

(Jin wouldn't make it like this.)

It doesn't mean that the performance will improve because it's bigger.

Rather, there is a risk that performance will deteriorate due to the speed of propagation of data and signals.

"Sicilia Calceo" was made into this form even though I couldn't have known about it.

Machina imagined what the reason was.

But now is the time to focus on the problem at hand.

Makina-sama, you are an engineer alongside [Magic Engineer] [Magic Craft Jazz] in the world today. And you also have the power.

I know you very well.

For once, gathering information is indispensable.

I see.

Makina felt that it was not to be underestimated.

I would like to ask you... and [Magic Engineer Magic Craft Jazz] for help.

"Farley asked me a question. Do you have an opposing magic mind?"

That's right. As a system, the two magic brains were supposed to be one, but something seemed to have gone wrong during 750 years, and the connection broke down. "

"In other words, you were able to operate as one system, but now you're divided into two?"

You're right.

Through this dialogue, Machina finally understood the system configuration of this [Stratigos].

Originally, what was used as one magic brain by systematically combining completely different independent magic brains was whether it was due to eternal years or to external interference, or it was loosely coupled, and as a result, it was separated into two.

“You haven't completely separated yet?”

Yes, but it's only a matter of time.

If we separate, we won't be able to influence the other side of our Stratigos.

It's radical over there. I will not choose any means to bring peace. "

That's a bit troublesome.

Isn't that right? That's why I need your help.

"Okay, I'll help you as much as I can."

Thank you. Thank you.

In this way, a cooperative relationship was established between Machina and [Stratigos].
