Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Episode 523: The gossip team - the ruins of the previous civilization -

Upon arriving at the school dragon house, Kuon was stroking Ise's head in such a delightful manner. That's how Kate accidentally opens her eyes to her words.

"Thank you, Ise"

"... eh, this guy, is he a female?

"... Oh, you don't know. Yes, this girl is a female."

I had totally forgotten Kuon because Kite was familiar with it, but Kite is a new recruit who just entered school yesterday in the first place. Remember that, Kuon snorts at Kite's inquiry with a bitter smile.

Actually, Kate didn't know Ise's gender. Instead, I didn't even know there was a gender to wolf-shaped demons in the first place. This was actually newly discovered information in the last 300 years.

"Oh, speaking of which, I found out about 100 years ago I was a girl"

"Uh, speaking of which, is that right? I totally forgot."

I was just nodding that Aura and Yuri, who were descending from above Ise as well as Kate, remembered that Ise had arrived at the beast house. Besides, Kate had a pulled cheek, but decided to reconsider whether it was okay or not.

"... Oh, yeah. Well, either way."

"Ah, seniors. It's important. Even Ise is a girl, so you have to clean her up. So brushing is essential."

"... right. Then I'll do it too."

"Yes."

That's how they started brushing Ise together.

Meanwhile, around that time. The remaining Tina was vigorously active. And, naturally in her case, it's not moving for the Adventure Department. More than half of them were for their own hobbies.

That said, it would be purely my own hobby, because it is moving at the request of the Empire as I already know it this time, because it would be different. I don't know where she was at this time of year like that, but it was a Terrar ruin that the security system completely shut down.

"Hmm..."

"Temple of the Devil. Did you find anything?

"No, Smanu. Let me do some more research."

Tina shook her head at the inquiry of one of the researchers. This time, she was leading a group of secretly formed researchers to investigate the ruins.

The reason for this was simple: the fact that there was another wake-up call, that even Kite had a special golem that was slightly out of hand, and the discovery of new materials for the first king, Ixphos, determined that an advanced investigation was needed.

In the unlikely event that a special golem was still lurking, it could be in case it wasn't Tina, so the emperor Leonhardt asked for it immediately.

"... the escort doesn't seem to be a problem."

"Don't be alarmed, Mel"

Shea takes note of Mel's reassurance. The two princesses were also abruptly participating in this fact-finding team, one as the head of the fact-finding team and one as the head of the escort.

Mel's strength is no worse than that of a high-ranking soldier, and he has a higher command if you mean military. Because Shea is so commanding and political that the Emperor Leonhardt trusts her, she assumed the position of head of this fact-finding mission as two summaries of different positions: researchers and military personnel.

"Hmmm... this is Lord Ixphos' manoeuvre... If the first king used it, he can convince you that you can't understand anything else, and you can't convince him that no discovery has been made... so this magic trick is not Lord Justiza's work"

Tina squeaks as she scrutinizes the various pieces of information left in the lab. Needless to say now, Justizia is famous as a scientist, and Tina couldn't have known more than that.

Although it was causal, Tina also respected her without knowing her mother, so she knew her well. She was secretly moaning, as a scientist, not as a daughter, forgetting that she was her daughter in the first place, that she might have met a little earlier in the reunification of the demonic tribe.

"This technique needs to be the same as Aye, at least... what a love affair..."

Tina accidentally leaked her admiration when she saw the demon prop for the mumbling video recording that the first king Ixphos had used. Apparently, he was taken as he was, and the magic props were left as they were. Apparently someone visited after that, and it was hidden so they wouldn't find it until that footage came out. Probably the last man whose voice was only in it.

Indeed, Tina's manoeuvres are sophisticated and useless. Still, it did not eliminate the thorough futility of Justiza's procedure.

Justiza's technique is just so specialized in startup speed oriented magic, whereas Tina's technique is fitted with an option from which it can develop a little and accommodate unexpectedly, making it inferior to startup speed.

In the sense of versatility, it is better for Tina, but under the limited circumstance that it is only necessary, there was a minute for my mother, Justiza.

"Hmmm... this technique is not the same as the use of sister improvement... hmm. It's a good design idea that has the foundation of a witch."

Tina sends a heartfelt tribute to a generation of geniuses and witches created before her. Mothers and daughters who had never been able to exchange words were allowed to have conversations only on this occasion. It was not a verbal conversation, but rather a magic trick that my mother and daughter were good at along with what causes.

"I see. Simplifying this place wouldn't have activated it. Hmm. I learned this."

"Lord Justina. Did you find anything out?

A researcher who was also doing an analysis of the laboratory nearby asks Tina, who apparently grabbed something. Besides, Tina didn't hide it, so she disclosed the information she just got.

"Uh-huh. Perhaps we can make further improvements to the demonic props for video storage today."

"That's good"

One of the researchers laughs at Tina's words. I felt it would be a good idea to start an investigation to obtain such information.

"If we analyze and further improve this magic artifact, we'll still have a lot of expensive recording artifacts in the hands of the citizens..."

"Ho..."

Watch as the researchers admire the magic props left behind by the first king. Unlike the existing objects, the technique used there is being simplified to the extreme, and it was more suitable for mass production than Tina.

The operating range is low due to surgical problems, but if the magic concentration is not so high, there is no problem in using it. It would also be helpful to develop a special technique for use by adventurers and others. In the meantime, it was important to be able to get it out cheap.

"And what I found by scrutinizing the inside of the lab is that there's apparently one room between this hierarchy and the one above it. That said, there can't be any manpower. There must be a maintenance corridor somewhere. Because it's hidden in boulders, or because it's not on the map in the lab, we're going to split it up and look for some strange place."

"Yes."

"Then divide the army into a few men to be escorted."

"Okay. Then in order from Squad 1…"

At Tina's suggestion, Shea sends out a circular to Mel, and Mel takes it and divides the troops and assigns them to the researchers' escorts.

It was natural not to have a map. The existence of the special golem was strictly secret. There is no way to list areas that could lead to that exposure.

Just because we only see ourselves, it's better not to mention it, given the possibility of insiders and enemies attacking us. If you don't know, you don't have to hide it.

"Lady Laicia! Dear Merklia, Lord Demon Emperor! Can you come to this side!

"Mm?"

Together, we were investigating the lower command room area for about an hour, where one of the researchers would raise his voice. Apparently something happened. And the three of them, who were in separate places, moved to the place where they spoke.

"Isn't this... some kind of door? I had a feeling about the acoustic sonar..."

"Mm..."

A researcher who apparently was examining the walls of a room with a console that Ixfoss and the others destroyed shifts places when he sees Tina come. That's how Tina stands there and scrutinizes the walls.

"Hmm..."

In about 10 seconds standing on the spot, Tina hits the discomfort on the spot. That was a sign of the door, as the researchers put it.

Feeling uncomfortable that way, Tina tries to use the military acoustic sonar she gets on Earth to try. Unsurprisingly, Enefia has a weak response to pure science and technology because it is a civilization in which witchcraft has developed. On the contrary, no one on the Enefia side has thought of magic or magic props at all, so there is no way to do it.

So in fact, if it was a product of science and technology, there were things that could be discovered. It seemed right to let him bring the product of science and technology just in case the subject of the investigation was a pre-rebel civilization in which the existence of the other world, Earth, was known.

"Hmm...... I see. This is brilliant. If you lose all traces so brilliantly, you won't be able to discover them in magic. Sonar by magic is perfectly blocked. It's only natural that Lord Justiza can discover it."

Tina sends praise for the cover-up, which can be described as almost perfect by its magic. Even witchcraft would have felt uncomfortable if it had been Tina, but still very few.

Still, what was discovered would be the existence of a kite. Because he brought in state-of-the-art science and technology, he was able to discover places that could not be discovered simply by counteracting witchcraft.

The perfect cover for science and technology, like Tina's, is because, for one thing, Kate brought her knowledge and she traveled to Earth, but she died. In a world where pure science and technology have not developed, it is more suspicious to be able to deal with investigative tools made up of pure science and technology.

"Do you think I can get in?

"Mmm... for now, it looks like you should go to the main console. If that's the main place, there's no chance we can control it."

In response to Shea's inquiry, Tina starts moving. The console in this room has already been destroyed and cannot be relieved. That's how I moved, and now I'm going to wrap my tongue around the ploy.

"Brilliant. All I can say is this is brilliant."

When Tina sees the information she has obtained by unlocking a few hidden walls, she complains of admiration. Besides, Shea, who has been that assistant on the side ever since now, asks.

"What did you find out?

"Do you already know that this known firearms control system has a spare console in the earlier room?

"Yeah...... I see. That's brilliant."

I was escorting Mel as well, but I understood what Tina was trying to say and nodded alone. Besides, Tina floats a little joyful, but she seems to be the only one who understood. So Tina goes on to explain.

"If we don't crush the console in that room, we can't disable the lab in the first place. But if you destroy that, the door that leads to that room won't open from the outside. With that, the system is going to self-destruct, so even if we restore it, we can't restore that part."

"I see... brilliant,"

Hearing Tina's explanation so far, Shea also understood. In other words, when the firearm control system is perfectly smashed, the spare security system starts automatically, but the door to it will no longer open from the outside because of the destruction of the console.

If that happens, no matter how you scratch it, you can't go in there anymore. It was natural not to open it if you broke the switch on the door that opens with the switch. If so, the special golems inside can safely and perfectly prepare to deal with the enemy.

But then there's one problem. Now we can't let ourselves in if we take it back after that. Now many of the precious weapons were destroyed as well. So Mel asks that.

"Are you going to throw it away even if you can take it back?

"No, I don't think so. I checked out that specialty, mainly Kate... but that was brilliant. After all, it is impossible to create objects capable of that level of autonomous action as a golem. If we can create a few of those things, there's no reason for the Imperial side to win. There's no way we're gonna get rid of that."

That was exactly the trump card of this secret laboratory, the treasure in the treasure. Therefore, I presume mass production is not possible for Tina. If the enemy were to reclaim this research facility, it would have been good enough to say what it was for. I read that there is no chance of throwing it away.

"Well, wait a while longer. The investigation of the ruins of prehistoric civilization, even in boulders, takes time. In the meantime, you should rest a lot."

"Okay...... then take a break everyone. While the door opens, there can be battle. Be careful not to fail."

"Yes."

Following Tina's suggestion, Shea and Mel issue a break. That's how Tina worked on analyzing the lab's systems on her own.
