Magi Craft Meister

61-01 Power Assist

3901, April 3.

On the shores of Lake Tosmo in the Empire of Shouro, major works had been carried out.

It is the construction of the "Adriana Memorial (tentative name)".

"Hmm, a little more power..."

Jen, the third generation "Magic Engineer" Magicraft Jazz, who commissioned the construction, was squeaking when he saw the engineers trying to get the big rock out of the way.

What they use is' Reinforced Exterior for Civil Construction '.

In other words, it is a power suit for construction or a power assist.

Since it is not armor, the operator does not enter the interior, but boards it in the sense of riding behind his shoulders.

It is 2.5 meters high and weighs about 600 kilograms.

He's got three legs, he's stability-oriented.

Why three instead of four is because the basic control demonstrable formula (control system) for grounding the feet can be simplified.

Without a head, the upper body of the pilot comes to that position.

It has a guard bar to protect the pilot's head, and it's not even as frightening as a direct hit of steel.

The force, too, is about three times greater than that of a human, so it is suitable for heavy work without precision.

"Whoa, this guy's good."

"It's a prototype, but it's gonna work."

"It was hard to deal with at first, but I can't get used to it."

The maneuvering method is performed by connecting loosely from elbow to elbow, knee to bottom to fuselage.

So precise operation is not possible.

Even on my hands, I'm finally grabbing things because they're just mitten-shaped with no fingers.

I mean, I can only lift my arms and grab/let go of things.

But this is enough for lifting stones and carrying building materials.

Walking speed is as fast as people walk, so there's no runoff.

This was the result of pinpointing specifications that did not have to be converted to military use.

Five such "Enhanced Exterior for Civil Construction (Power Assist)", Jen had lent them to the construction site free of charge.

Although the surface surface is the testing operation of new magic conductors, its actual purpose is to improve the efficiency of construction.

The reason for this format is, as I wrote earlier, that it is difficult to convert militarily.

"The Pilot Blows Upper Body"

"Travel speed is the extent of human walking"

"Hands finally grab things"

In addition,

"When fully operational, you need to replace the Magnetic Stone Accumulation (Manacell) every hour."

It's a spec.

This is why Jen thought that if we didn't modify it so much that it would be almost separate, it wouldn't be for combat.

In addition, the cost can be reduced to about 50,000 torres as a result of simplifying the structure as much as possible and making sure that the materials are also made of inexpensive objects.

Approximately 500,000 yen for Japanese yen and less than or equal to light cars.

However, when a technical fee enters here, the price as a rule is about tripled. That is 150,000 torres, about 1.5 million yen.

Jen thought there would be nothing that could not be introduced because that is also about the price of a luxury light car.

fact,

"I want it for me, too."

"Oh. That's good."

And I hear you wanting to own it.

As for Jen, he says he can't sell it because it's a prototype.

He also said that if he pointed out defects, he would turn them as a matter of priority during mass production, so he tried all kinds of things on his own.

Here are the best (Worst?) 3 of them:

1. I want some more power.

2. Slow travel speed.

3. It is annoying to exchange magic stone accumulators (manacells).

I guess they all are, enough to make Jen think.

"But hey, I don't know how to improve my performance..."

As for power, it can be exerted more than ten times if it is not threaded onto muscle-based material, but this time the skeleton will no longer be preserved, and it will be harder to control, which in turn will lead to higher costs.

The same goes for the speed of travel.

"For" Magnetic Stone Accumulation (Manacell) ", use two in parallel..."

That's about it, and Jen decided to break it, as some users would modify it themselves.

"Magnetic Stone Storage (Manacell)" is like a dry battery or rechargeable battery, so to speak. You can use the Magnetin Supplier (Mana Server) to fill Magnetin (Mana).

Increasing the number of copies on board can increase the operating time...... but a whole day...... I have no intention of making it a 12-hour actual working time.

I wrote it down in "Control Core," but I was going to make sure it didn't.

After a day of work, Jen checks and maintains the Enhanced Exterior for Civil Construction (Power Assistance).

"Is durability okay?"

I only assumed that it would be treated fairly abusively because it was for civil work, with fine abrasions, but no scratches or dents that would affect the operation.

Wear of the joint/sliding part is also assumed.

Jen, who maintained one of the five "Enhanced Exterior for Civil Construction (Power Assist)" units, began to think about what to do with the defects put out.

"When it comes to power, you can do it as soon as you can, like, 1.5 times more."

I only let them use less than half of their original potential, so if it's up to double, it's possible with the rewriting of 'Magi Formula', but Jen thought I'd keep it 1.5 times because I'm worried about the strength of the skeleton.

"Let's keep moving speed"

The three legs are easy to balance statically but not dynamically.

Instead, it was dangerous to increase speed without darkness because the 'Magic Control Flow (Magi Sequence)' walking on three legs is still incomplete.

It's easy to control, but since it's my first attempt, it takes me a while to determine various parameters.

"As for" Magnetic Stone Accumulation (Manacell), "I figured two in parallel."

If it runs for two hours, you can have it replaced at the break.

"It could improve the working environment."

That's about as easy as it gets.

"Reiko, help me"

"Yes, Father."

If Jen and Reiko do, they'll need about ten minutes to remodel five cars.

"That's it. I'll see you tomorrow."

Looking at "Reinforced Exterior for Civil Construction (Power Assist)" after the remodel, Jen muttered satisfactorily.

Reiko questioned Jen like that.

"Father, I don't have to go out of my way to make these things, but I think Craftsman (Smith) would work more than five cars on his own."

"Yeah, that's right. But this time, it's about community promotion, technology development, economic activity, etc."

"Is that what you mean..."

Jen nodded and showed it.

Jen as the "third generation" was beginning to think about the goal of making magic technology widely available.

"The" second generation "showed advanced technology, training a limited number of experts, and so on."

But it was invalidated by the Magic League.

"Though it may be plain, I think not only the training of experts, but also the widespread spread of it, will make the inheritance so easy and uninterrupted."

"Okay."

Still don't know if Jen will do as well as he thinks.

But Jen began to think about doing what he could.
