Rebuild World

35 Information collection equipment

Akira is biking through the wilderness. I'm in the middle of a solitary patrol request.

The motorcycle is loaded with in-vehicle information-gathering equipment loaned from the hunter's office. This information-gathering device records the route of travel and range of enemies, the number and type of monsters encountered, and the number of destroyed at the same time as the surrounding enemies. After calculating the valuation amount from that record, the amount deducted from the cost of renting equipment and repairs in case of damage is paid as compensation for the request.

If you patrol a dangerous area where a large number of powerful monsters roam (yes), your rewards will increase, and if you only crush your spare time in a safe place, you will have a deficit on your rental bill. If you're unlucky, you'll be the wingman fighting a bunch of monsters alone, but if you win, you can take the total crusade reward, and the decision to slice and escape won't depend on the will of the others. There are many advantages and drawbacks compared to a request for patrols in a group like the last one, but there were more advantages to Akira today.

Akira continued her patrol request as she chatted with Alpha in a mindset. It is a precautionary measure to prevent a soliloquy like the one you are talking to from continuing to be recorded.

"I thought it would be tough if you ran into a bunch of monsters, but instead of the bunch, you're also neglecting to run into a single person. It's a little clappy. '

'Cause it's after I knocked down a heap of them the other day because of the noise. One way or the other, that's all there is left to defeat. I don't think it's going to be that long until we get back to the usual encounter rate.'

Akira smiles slightly.

"Is it peace between the bundles now? That's too much to think about. Where are they springing up and coming out of so much? I guess I'll be right back even if I make regular mistakes, huh?

'Undiscovered, or (some) defenses are too powerful to be attacked. You think they continue to manufacture inexhaustibly. Though I don't know if the place of production is nearby or flowing from afar.'

"Mechanical systems may be..."

Biological systems, too.

Akira looks surprised.

"You manufacture biological monsters in factories? Not breeding or something?

Smile a little better as Alpha boasts of her knowledge (cheeks) Mm.

'That's right. Old world technology is as easy as manufacturing organisms. Livestock, pets, escorts, biological weapons. If you want high quality that will vary in use but is difficult in natural mating, you will manufacture it from scratch. Well, I don't think he was well managed at the time, and he was kind of indiscriminately attacking people. In addition, some mechanical monsters also reproduce by applying self-repair functions. So destroying the manufacturer's factory won't dramatically reduce the number of monsters.'

"... The more I hear about the old world, the more impotent it is."

"Akira will continue to travel to the ruins of such a lame world? Get better equipped, get more strength, and do your best not to have to die in a place like that. As part of that training, shall we start by seeing if we can defeat that one on our own? Akira, the monster. '

Copy that.

This patrol request combines shooting training. Akira stopped the bike when she confirmed her new appearance.

The monster looks like a small carnivore. It hides the developed limbs with fur and doesn't look that powerful. In fact, it's a weak classification monster around here.

But you have enough physical ability to eat and kill people. Proof that it has enough flying vitality to allow it to wander through the wilderness. That's a threat enough for a normal human being.

Akira supports and aiming the CWH objective assault gun with the physical capability of the reinforced garment. However, in addition to the immature operation of fortified clothing, the line of ballistic prediction stretching from the muzzle repeated fine swings due to unfamiliar handling of CWH objective assault guns.

Akira breathed heavily with a serious look and concentrated as much as possible to pull the trigger. The bullet sounded the gunshot and was shot out, flying through the air and landing at the foot of the monster.

"Off. That's a shame."

"Can't we have ballistic prediction lines? It seems a long way from the day when you'll be able to guess on your own completely. '

"Some people are aiming from a distance for training and safety. Good luck not to be creepy. The target is approaching."

Copy that. Next.

A monster who noticed Akira rushes out vigorously, kicking the ground with tough (just) limbs and rapidly packing the distance from Akira. The face you see over the aimer was full of animosity and appetite.

Get on the bike and get out of here now. Or (yes) ask Alpha for support. That's what the outpouring fear keeps appealing to Akira. Akira continues the shooting with a serious look as she sets her aim as she rapidly packs her distance, crushing that demand that gets stronger each time she takes off the bullet.

Then a bullet landed on the monster's torso. Bulleted monsters blunt their movements rapidly. Akira kept shooting calmly and stabbed the monster with a firm stop.

Alpha laughs and calls it a good fight.

"Brilliant. It wasn't bad, was it?

'Hi. Well, this wouldn't be a deficit with ammunition costs. Isn't it?

"Maybe."

"Good"

Akira snorted (groaned) and laughed lightly to her temper.

Akira asks somehow when she returns to patrol the wilderness again.

'Alpha. Speaking of which, this patrol request, you're gonna keep going until my Hunter Rank rises somewhat. I went up to 17 on a previous emergency request, but how far are we going to go from there, exactly?

'I'm using 20 as a guide. That's how much I need to rent a wilderness spec car. It could be lower if you simply borrow it, but there's also a combination of car performance and rental fees, including security deposits. "

"A car. There's a motorcycle for now, and you have to give it that much priority?

'No, you can't. This bike has a limit on the amount of ammunition you can carry. Soon we'll be exploring other sites, so we'll need to gear it up, but wilderness specs are expensive. I'll be renting for the moment. "

"Other ruins? Why don't we just stop by on the bike while we're at it?

'Not until you've equipped yourself, including the car. I'd like to get some information-gathering equipment if possible. We'll go explore the other ruins later. "

'Mm-hmm. I wanted to look for a healing pill or something. That's about as good as a motorcycle, right?

'You didn't tell me. My enemy's accuracy is greatly diminished when it is other than the ruins of Kuzsuhara Street. The information-gathering equipment is an important piece of equipment to complement it. Still want to go?

"Okay. Let's stop it."

Akira pulled back slightly. I understand that it is no different than suicide, such as entering the ruins without Alpha's enemies in my current strength. I was sorry to keep getting ambushes from all directions in the ruins.

"In addition to the car, do I have to buy information gathering equipment? Don't let the money fly. You should have earned 12 million aurums. It keeps decreasing. The CWH Object Assault Gun was pretty expensive."

'That's what hunter operation is all about. If it costs more money than you earn, it's too soon to sperm out hunter operations there. That's what I'm talking about.'

…… Right. "

Many hunters lose their lives by entering ruins of difficulty beyond their own. That's the same for Akira. If I hadn't met Alpha, Akira would have died on that spot, too.

The odd edge of that day still keeps me alive. Akira realized it again and zeroed (spilled) the bitterness.

Elena and the others were bickering about Sizka when Akira visited Sizka's store. Mixing with that chatter while ordering ammunition, we talked about Elena's fortified clothing among the topics of fortified clothing.

Akira gave Elena an unexpected look when she found out she hadn't worn fortified clothes before.

"... Was Elena's clothes protective? I had seen them wear gear that looked pretty heavy, and I thought it was reinforced clothing. You're powerful, not by what you see."

Sarah laughs joyfully when she sees Akira react.

"It is. Elena says she's weak or something. Akira. Don't you think it's impossible?

"Oh, no..."

Akira was showing confusion without even being able to affirm it poorly. I just keep saying Elena is unhappy next to it.

"I don't want people waving A4WM automatic projectile guns with one hand to tell me. That one, how much weight do you think it weighs with ammo in it?

"Naturally, I am a nanomachine auxiliary physical enhancement augmenter. If the nanomachine comes out, I'm weak enough."

"At that time, Sarah's bragging breasts will return to her former breast milk."

Elena and Sarah smile at each other with an amazing smile. Akira was intimidated even though it wasn't directed at her.

Sizka was looking forward to seeing how those Elena and the others were doing, but she enters the arbitration with a bitter smile when she realizes how Akira was doing.

"Let it be about that for both of you. Akira's under barometric pressure, isn't she? What are we going to do when we show the intimidation of a skilled hunter here?"

Elena and Sarah somehow turned their gaze to Akira when they suppressed intimidation in Sizka's arbitration.

Akira twists (twists) out of her awkward (twisted) vocabulary, confused and in a mood like arbitration.

"Uh, you know, I don't know if you're weak, but I think Elena's sober and pretty, right?

Elena immediately perceived from the negotiator's experience that Akira's words were meant to forgive the occasion, but at the same time, she felt quite happy and much in a good mood, assuming that it was not a compliment for leaving.

Sarah stares at Akira with a smile on her face.

"Akira. What about me?

The smile was clearly enforceable. Akira answers in a little panic.

"I think Sarah is very pretty too"

That got Sarah in a good mood, too.

Sizka looked forward to seeing how those Elena and the others were doing. And somehow I go on myself.

"Akira. What about me?

"I think Mr. Sizka is very pretty too"

Akira also tried to answer normally, understanding that Sizka knew and was listening. But the light seeped slightly.

Alpha continues with a smile.

"Akira. What about me?

'She's beautiful. Satisfied?'

Alpha protests with expressions of dissatisfaction with Akira's throne attitude.

"So why is it so hard on me?"

'Cause you're definitely just trying to tease me. I'm taking care not to react weirdly to Alpha, so stay out of my way.'

Akira had cautioned Alpha not to point her gaze at the void for Elena and the others.

Sizka continues to hide her inner self a little bit, a little surprised by Akira's unexpected happiness.

"Akira. You don't think it's okay if I tell you you're beautiful for now?

"No, you can't even tell me what I cared about. And even for the time being, I'm not lying."

"Oh, yeah."

There is a somewhat embarrassing atmosphere on the ground. Sizka and the others looked at each other's slightly red faces, realizing that they would do the same, and kept silent so that they wouldn't point it out to each other.

Akira shakes the subject to misdemonize the field air.

"Speaking of which, isn't Sarah wearing fortified clothes?

"Me? Because I'm a physical enhancement dilator. Half-performance enhancement clothing reduces physical abilities. Besides, we also need to think about the compatibility of the nanomachine with the fortified clothes. There are some high-performance products that solve all of the problems, but they are too expensive to handle. Until you can afford the money, protective clothing with the ability to increase the efficiency of your nanomachines is more convenient."

"I see. You have a lot going on. So, what enhancement clothes did Elena purchase?

Elena puts a slight rush on her face.

"What? Well, it's a pretty high-performance one. Just like Akira, Sizka chose me."

"Really? I guess high performance fortified clothing makes you look a lot different than my one. What's it like?

"Uh, I don't know..."

Elena is clouding her words. Akira had no intention of hearing anything strange, so she was confused by Elena's attitude. Then Sizka smiled a little invincibly.

"It's hard to explain with your mouth, so just show it to me straight. It'll arrive next week or so, so wait till then."

Elena rushes out.

"Hey, hey!?

"Really? Okay."

Akira looked at Elena in panic wonders, but she answered that normally for now because it was Sizka's recommendation.

Elena was attached to her promise on her own, but she couldn't say that she didn't like to show it to Akira, and she was a little wolfish. Sizka, who knows why she panics, smiles like a prank. Likewise, Sarah was laughing, thinking it was bad.

I think Akira saw Elena's information-gathering equipment.

"Speaking of which, could Elena's information-gathering equipment also be something Sizka recommended?

Elena answers quickly to switch topics.

"No, I'm not. I forgot where I bought it, but I bought it at another store. Sizka doesn't handle information-gathering equipment."

"We're a firearms store for hunters. I don't like it because handling products I don't know very well can cause problems. I'm trying to get it back, so bear with me."

"Sizka's is a hunter's shop, right? There are many firearms that work with information-gathering equipment, so I think you can handle as much as information-gathering equipment. Don't you agree with Akira?

Elena and Sizka's gaze is directed at Akira the gaze of those who seek consent and those who do not. Akira ran away from the choice in a bit of a hurry.

"Well, I was going to buy some information-gathering equipment in there, and I was just wondering if it would be helpful if there was a product Sizka recommended."

Sizka shakes her neck to the side.

"I'm sorry. The information-gathering equipment is not specialized in boulders. If it's a recommendation, it's my recommendation to Elena, right?

"Me? Even if they say so. Enemies, structural grasping in the ruins, and assistance in collecting artifacts. Besides choosing from such applications, Hunter Operating's activity policy will also be different..."

The thought of not recommending something bad to Akira and the number of options that would arise just to be familiar with the information-gathering equipment plagued Elena. And while I was thinking about roaring a little, I remembered the information gathering equipment that was dusty at home.

"That's right. Should I sell Akira the information-gathering equipment that I bought to try before but am not using now? It's a comprehensive product, but I think it would be better for beginners. I was thinking of using it to rip the parts off, but if you want Akira, I'll sell it, okay? It's a product that didn't suit me, but would you like to try it?

"Is it a product that I have a habit of not fitting Elena?

"I don't have a habit, I don't have a personality, I'll briefly explain..."

I'm not pushing anything I can't use. Elena explains the excuse in detail.

When information gathering equipment sold for hunters is divided into single and comprehensive systems of products, to a large extent. The single system is an information-gathering device narrowed down to specific functions, specialized in individual functions such as motion exploration, echo collection and video identification. The integrated system is a comprehensive device that wraps around multiple functions and even performs various processes, such as displaying enemy results, automatically creating 3D maps, and so on based on gathering information.

Both have strengths and weaknesses. If it is a single system, even if it breaks, you can only buy the equipment again. It also has a high degree of freedom, such as enhancing certain features in combination with other company products. On the other hand, it's a lot of work to process the collected information into useful information. Although there are certain common standards for the format of the information collected, the differences between products are considerable. Advanced technology is needed to analyze it and mold it into useful information.

A comprehensive system would save those hassles, but less freedom instead. A product that integrates its own products is fundamental and must be replaced or repaired in its entirety even if some features are just broken. Programs that display enemy results based on gathering information are also incompatible.

Elena preferred to combine single-function information-gathering equipment to perform her own information processing. Recently, however, there have been more products in the general system and more products in the most popular series, so I bought them once. But when I actually tried it, Elena's senses only made it seem like it was halfway through, and she ended up wearing dust (dust).

"... that's why you can have people who specialize in collecting information if you want to team up, but I think you should use a comprehensive product if you work alone. It's a pretty small one for hunters who act individually, so I don't think it's gonna get in the way."

Alpha recommends that Akira buy it.

'I think that's a good story. The question is whether that budget is in Akira or not.'

"Uh, I'd like to buy it, if possible, how long will it be?

"Right. It's second-hand for Akira, and it's just something I took away because even if I sold it, it could just be bought and beaten (just) for a cheap price, and how about two million aurums?

Elena's offer is pretty cheap from the market. Still, the majority of Akira's deposit accounts disappear, and if you buy them, they can be the first step to falling back into life without a bath. Akira trampled on a slight hesitation because of Alpha, Elena and Sizka's recommendation.

"Okay. Do you mind if I transfer the payment?

"Yes."

Akira manipulates the information terminal to transfer the money to Elena. Elena also confirmed the transfer on the spot.

"I confirmed your deposit. Negotiations are in place. Then I'll give it to you right away, so why don't we go pick it up with you from now on? Sizka. See you later."

Elena and the others laugh lightly at Sizka and leave the store. Akira also lowered her head gently and continued later.

Elena's house is separate from the inn where Akira usually stays, with its location, exterior and interior. Akira waited for Elena in the room she was put through, feeling the difference in character between herself and Elena as hunters.

Elena returns with a dusty box.

"Here it is. It should be once finished...... Well, if there's something missing, give it up because you think it's used. Was it a comprehensive information-gathering device made of Semba Electronics and the product name was Midnight Eye? It just didn't fit me, and the performance itself should have been pretty high."

"Thank you. I'll sit down. Do you need a default setting or something?

"I still have the settings when I used them to try them, so I can still use them. If it's hard to use, initialize it and you'll be fine."

I was looking at the box the way Akira seemed interesting. Elena looked forward to seeing how it was going, but gave a look of sorry to hear the alarm sound from the information terminal.

"I'm sorry. I was going to offer you some tea and explain a lot, but it took me a long time to find it and I couldn't. We're running out of time for a little favor."

"Don't worry. Now if you'll excuse me. Thank you for everything."

Akira carefully bowed her head. And Elena and the others dropped me off at home with a box of general information-gathering equipment.

When I left Elena and the others' house, I saw Katsuya and the others near it. I stumbled upon Katsuya and her eyes, but Akira passed as she did, not caring.

When Akira, who returned to the inn, opened the box of comprehensive information-gathering equipment, a rectangular machine and various accessories emerged, the body of the information-gathering equipment. I get instructions from Alpha when I take them in my hand and look at them intriguing.

"Akira, please connect it to the information terminal."

"Do you do a lot of things again?

'Naturally. The software side will rewrite as much as it wants so that I can get my full support.'

"Right. Well, that's a good thing if it's going to be convenient. Good luck with that."

As soon as Akira removes the information-gathering device from the box and connects it to the information terminal, Alpha proceeds to grasp the information-gathering device via the information terminal.

"You still have the data Elena was using. Should I erase it?

"What kind of data was left?

"It contains the internal structure of the ruins of the old world around the city of Kugamayama, data scanned for various monsters, and maybe data acquired outside of this information-gathering device. There is also data for adjusting the output of each function. Perhaps Elena will still have the results of all the trials and errors."

"Right. I don't know what you're talking about, so make Alpha like it."

'Okay. Elena and Sarah still had their physical data. Maybe you tried it on the equipment test. It's very accurate because it's the data we got from close range. Shall we reproduce it for a moment?

"What?"

At the next moment, Elena and Sarah's figure appeared in Akira's vision, reproduced from that body data with Alpha's ability to compute. The moment I saw it, Akira was surprised and stiff. They were both naked.

Elena narrows down unnecessary elements and has a condensed body of necessary elements rather than describing them as lean shapes. It was made more lustrous and healthy skin, living together without contradiction in functional beauty and fleshy senses.

Sarah has a beautiful, rich breast that is easy to understand and troublesome. The harmonious ups and downs of the hips and buttocks, the tense skin and the shade in the valley of the chest further enhanced the overall appeal of the body.

Both nudities are very attractive just because of the different directions of attraction. Elena, Sarah and I were facing Akira with a smile representing their personalities on the beauty we could just call a beautiful woman, sparing no effort to tan (sara) it.

Akira was shocked by her benefactor's nudity and a little in love, but she yells back at me at the same time.

"Turn it off now!

Soon Elena and the others disappear from Akira's sight. Alpha looks surprised next to it.

"Nothing. You don't have to panic so much."

Pointing a blameless glance at Alpha as Akira holds her slightly red face with one hand.

"... why were you naked?

'Cause I recreated it from my body data. The clothes were separate. "

"... in the meantime, don't ever do it again. It'll be awkward if I remember next time I see Elena and the others."

'I thought Akira was used to that, but she wasn't?

"Depends on the person and the situation!

'Is that what this is all about?

"That's right!

I get a subtle look at whether Alpha is convinced or not.

'Fair enough. Don't worry, if you don't tell me not to. I'll be heading to the ruins tomorrow, so keep your guns in good condition.'

Akira still asks with a slightly red face.

"Didn't you go to the ruins until you could rent a car?

"The information-gathering equipment seems to perform better than expected, and there's data on the ruins Elena and the others left behind. On top of that, we're headed to a relatively safe site. We have to get used to handling information gathering equipment. '

"... well. Okay."

Akira starts developing guns, two (today) AAH assault guns and a CWH objective assault gun. These three guns are Akira's lifeline now.

Akira is not yet used to servicing CWH objective assault guns. For this reason, I try to work with care to ensure that it is well maintained. But earlier Elena and Sarah's nudity was creeping up behind her brain, and she was too busy shaking off the nudity of the floating benefactors to make any progress at all.

Alpha was still observing Akira with the information-gathering equipment she was working on.
