Magi Craft Meister

The "submarine" of "Origin", which first arrived, was a 10-meter diameter sphere found in the second place.

How could this have arrived first, simply because it was the smallest?

To be a little more precise, it was the critical size that could be sent on the "Transition Magic Formation" aboard the local following cruiser, Sekikan.

When it gets any bigger than this, the necessary magic formation will be larger than the cruiser's width.

Of course, we have the means to send things that size, but it takes a little bit of work to prepare.

That's why a 10-meter diameter sphere was sent to number one.

'Quarantine is complete. And on top of that, we put it in a line.'

Old man reports.

The dock in Tatsumi Bay also has an epidemic prevention function that can seal off and sterilize the dock.

"Okay. Thanks."

Jen thanked him and stepped into the junction to investigate just now. Reiko, Reinhardt, Elsa, and Saki are also with them.

Berche, Goose and Hannah are outside the junction, staring at the monitor.

"Oh, there's so much to know when you look around"

"Mm, it doesn't have a sticky organism attached at all. The exterior is a pretty special material"

"Kufu, you seem to have a high hardness. Is it metal, or resin?

Lines of Reinhardt, Elsa and Saki, respectively.

And Jen, along with Reiko, examined the sphere silently.

"The surface looks like a resin coating. It's also a substance with extremely low friction."

"Oh, that's why the stuck creatures aren't stuck"

"Even if it sticks together, it peels off when a little external force is applied."

"... then why doesn't the coating peel off?

Elsa's last question is best.

If there is a substance that doesn't stick to anything, can we coat that substance with other substances?

Wouldn't the coating peel off right away?

The answer is' possible '.

"There are several ways to do this. Firstly, coat it and then lower the friction. How about that?

"Oh, I see."

"Then some hands coarsen the surface to be coated."

Flat surfaces peel off from each other, but irregular or key surfaces like surface zippers won't hook each other off, Jen said.

"The rest is to magically bond."

Friction is a physical force. Since magic is a completely different system of forces, it can be combined with the nature of 'no physical adhesion possible'.

"So, that's probably an engineering magic coating"

"Sure. That's right, Brother Jin."

Elsa also has a superior level of engineering magic, but since she focused more on healing magic and medicine than that, I can't help but see that it doesn't extend to Jen.

For that matter, she is the best 'healer' in the world.

"Well, what's in this guy..."

"Master (My Road), it may be dangerous, please allow internal confirmation with the" Peeping Telescope (Peeper) "

"Huh?... um, okay, please"

As an old man, I took safety even though I ignored Jen's hope of confirming the unknown.

Just to see that, Jen couldn't even say no.

Of course, as Jen, I was thinking about the possibility of danger lurking inside.

So after so many boundaries, I was going to rely on Craftsman (Smith).

Because Jen D is traveling to Avalon.

Aside from that, Old Master, who obtained permission from Jen, carefully investigated the interior using the Peep View Telescope (Peeper).

After taking about five minutes,

"My Lord, there seems to be no danger."

and ensured their safety.

"Ok...." Analysis "," Analysis "... I see"

Old man assured me of his safety, but Jen did not omit the confirmation procedure he always did, but went through it one step at a time.

"'Sterilization'"

Finally, after sterilizing and disinfecting again, the hatch was opened without hesitation.

If Jen is a magic engineer, Magicraft Jazz, it's easy to figure out what's going on.

Jen peers inside from the hatch.

"Hmm...... I knew it wasn't meant for people to ride."

"Father, then what the hell is it for?

Reiko, who was following me, reacted to Jen's soliloquy.

"I think it's a surveillance magic machine. I don't know what it was to monitor until I checked the control nucleus... but maybe it was to check for some distortion in Ars' crust."

Unlike Earth, Ars is a planet made of solids to the center.

However, it has undergone modification by Original, the most severe of which is the increase in gravity.

There is a possibility of distortion in the crust, as the central nucleus is packed with super-heavy material and forced to increase gravity.

Sounds like a magic machine (Magi machine) to monitor it... Jen concluded.

I have the idea of 'isostasy'.

This is the theory that (relatively) light crust floats on the heavy upper mantle.

According to this, the land part is thick in crust and thin in the sea. The deep part is particularly thin.

Thus, distortions are thought to be more likely to occur in the thin deep sea of the crust than on land.

That's why Jen wondered if the Originals had built this magic machine to monitor the condition of the crust.

"Brother Jin, then why don't you bring it first?

and Elsa seemed worried, but Jen argued against it.

"No, Elsa, think about it. There are no more Origins to monitor."

"Oh, sure, yeah"

"Besides, the energy in this sphere is dead. I think Magic Reactor is crazy."

"Then I'm convinced."

"Dear Elsa, we were monitoring the condition of the crust in the early days of planetary remodeling."

Old man made up for it.

'If you're going to monitor it, you can't measure the change over time unless it's fixed to one point, but this sphere wasn't fixed anywhere. Perhaps, at the end of the years, it has fallen out of its fixed position'

Based on such speculation and the fact that the energy is out, Jen and Lao decided that this sphere could be treated as an 'artifact'.

"There's a maintenance passage inside..."

Jen looks around inside with Reiko.

It was the type of magic machine (Magi Machine) that I had never seen before, so it seemed like a lot of things to gain.

Saki is working on an analysis of the coating substance of the outer contour, and Reinhardt and Elsa are helping Jen analyze the contents of the "Control Nucleus (Control Core)" that he has been reading out.

Their efforts also revealed a little bit about this sphere.
