Magi Craft Meister

The investigation of the mysterious base discovered by 'Vulcan' in space proceeded slowly.

Almost all internal investigations were completed by Peeper Telescope two hours later. As a result, the internal motion was not confirmed.

"You still seem to be faulty or dormant"

That's what Old Man, who was analyzing the footage in Penglai, concluded.

Because in case it was destroyed by an external enemy, it would be a hassle to deal with.

"External enemies... you think they're here? Lao Jun."

Jen asks such an old man.

'Yes, my lord (My Lord). Foreign enemies, even so, do not mean unknown enemies or aliens. Think about the broken Hale people. "

"I see."

Jen nodded at your reasoning. Indeed, the Hales are not a single rock. No, rather, it's not strange to get mixed up for being a bunch of individualists.

Whether or not you commit the foolishness of carrying out sabotage operations.

"So, were there any signs of sabotage?

'No, I couldn't find it. But even if you don't physically destroy it directly, there are many ways to do it, so you can't be alarmed.'

"Sure. I'll leave that to you."

"Yes, your husband (My Road). The investigation will proceed with caution"

I'm not like Jen putting one order on the behavior you think you can do. Around there was a valve.

The "Vulcan" floating in space had stopped relative to the mysterious "relay base" at a distance of three kilometers.

"I've been instructed to investigate this base carefully."

Captain, Cosmos 501 told Cosmos 502, his deputy chief.

"So do you want to send in the survey command"

"Don't be. The Magic Conductor (Magi Machine), which did not respond to the investigation in the Peep View Telescope (Peeper), may react to the investigation command. Be careful and expect it."

As an old man, I thought that if there was any reaction, I could get further information based on that.

"Then let's send in ten men in battlesuits."

The usefulness of the battlesuit has been demonstrated. Since his battle with "Disaster," Jen had produced dozens of battle suits worn by the Rand squad.

Due to the material, it is not possible to serve all Penglai golems, but Sky, Lands, Marines, Mermaids and Cosmos each have their own dedicated battlesuit for twenty.

The one for that Cosmos squad was mounted for ten in 'Adriana' and for ten in this' Vulcan 'as well.

Ten Cosmos 551-560 bodies in battle suits stepped down to the 'relay base' using the 'force field generator'.

[We just arrived. I can't feel gravity.]

Copy that. They're continuing the investigation.

After a short exchange, the ten bodies decided to investigate the planar part first.

[Material is nickel-chromium molybdenum steel. homogeneous to the example 'Disaster']

It's either due to cosmic dust or a lot of scratches.

The planar part is pointing at the solar seran, so the sunlight is falling all awesome.

In the meantime, we reach one of the warehouse or hangar-like facilities.

[Facility appears to be less degraded]

Due to its metal construction, it deteriorated less due to UV rays.

We know that the interior is empty by means of the Peep View Telescope (Peeper).

[Still, there may be discoveries by visiting in person. Let's find out.]

[Copy that]

Cosmos 551 and the others slowly opened the facility door. There is no problem because the lock is not hung and there is no corrosion.

It's still empty.

[Sounds like it....... yeah?

Cosmos 551 stared at the stains on the floor of the facility.

[This stain looks relatively new... what do you think?

This is space, and it can't be new because it's in this facility, which doesn't have ultraviolet light.

[Is that true? But what kind of stain is it? Oil?

Scorched brown, fat shiny stains.

["Analyze"]

All Cosmos troops can use engineering magic, so I'll analyze it.

[Oil… it's like grease]

That's unusual.

Until now, there have been no examples of the use of grease-like viscous oils for lubricating oils in hair-related techniques.

Maybe this is suggesting something, too.

Cosmos 551 sent this information to you.

Facilities on the plane were mostly buildings like warehouses or hangars. It's surprising that it was all empty.

It's also possible that after we go out,

Sure.

Cosmos 556 and 551 looked at each other.

There's a good chance that Disaster went out of here.

And there was nothing more to see in the planar part, and the Cosmos team finally decided to look inside the hemisphere.

[Should we start with the periphery?

[No, that would take too long, and the investigation by Peep View Telescope (Peeper) only found a material warehouse. So we're going to focus on the center.

[Copy that]

And also, investigation, investigation, exploration. That repetition.

Nothing in particular.

Stopped Magnetic Converters (Ether Converters) and Magic Furnaces (Mana Drivers) and Emergency Magic Reservoirs (Mana Tanks) were found. But.

[Brains I should have managed, golems for maintenance, transfer gates for material acceptance (warp gates)... I can't find any.]

It's not a big amount of material collected.

Oh, yeah.

Here, the old man made a bold hypothesis.

"My Lord, maybe that relay base was abandoned a long time ago."

"How does that happen?

'Yes, because for more than a few decades now, there has been no indication of any use and no metastatic facilities found, plus no critical facilities such as management brains'

Old man goes on to explain in detail.

I really don't need a relay base in that place.

There is another midpoint between Ars and Hale. It's where we went in the opposite direction.

"Alternatively, it may not be one place, but two places, 60 degrees and 120."

"I see."

You, too, would need to look into it and see if you had time, Jen thought.

"But now it's a relay base. What to do......"

Jen thinks it should be early if we receive and modify what we discover.

But at the same time, there will be risks.

"Let's still move on as originally planned"

"Okay."

Taking more certainty than the schedule, Jen decided to build his own relay base by the craft Vulcan.

[As originally planned, a simplified base was to be built]

[All right]

Let's get to work.

"Vulcan" and the Cosmos began to play their original roles.
