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

Episode 593: The Way to Worsen

The special exterior 'set of iron rides' used by fireflies, as they descended to the back of the mountain, immediately launched combat operations. The opposite side here has been halved by long-range shelling by the troops of the Magic and Semi-Magic aircraft, but this one was naturally out of range, so the extermination situation is still there.

"The hammer connects to the back adapter. Change to 'Arm Buster'"

Firefly carries a swinging down sledgehammer with the fall, deforming both arms again and starting shooting. Sledgehammers are great for dealing with big demons, but they don't go well with little demons.

"Leg Vulcan and Double Shoulder Gatling Gun Activation. Chest Hatch Deployment... Charges magic to missiles with 30% output. Start bombing the perimeter of the machine."

Now unlike earlier, the enemy is close. I can't use a weapon of great output that would cause damage to me, but I can use Vulcan and Gatling guns that changed and were out of range. As a result, the barrage was not comparable to earlier, and despite being a stand-alone aircraft, the rate of annihilation was much higher than earlier.

Moreover, fireflies whose computational abilities are not comparable to those of people also use controls such as gating guns, which are inherently difficult to control. Subtracting the precondition of "Uncrowned Troops (No Orders)", the hit rate was not comparable.

"Hmm. It's not a moving fortress."

"I wonder if hammers are hard to use with a small demon opponent."

"Didn't you know and make..."

"I knew this was the case with Uncrowned Troops."

"Fly is the Uncrowned Troop (No Orders)," so no.

Watch Fireflies and "Set of Iron Rides" destroy demons with overwhelming annihilation, and face to face with the "Uncrowned Troops (No Orders)" technical squad share their thoughts.

"Is the hit rate equal to Aigis' assisted kite?"

"Is it expensive?

"Because kite is too early to target the demon gun, but sometimes..."

Answer Orr's query as Tina browses the Firefly Hit Rate, as she was somewhere spooked. We're not catching up on Kite's reaction speed with the prototype conductor right now.

Well, it's a prototype, so I can't help it. That's why Aigis is in the auxiliary. I started by adding her arithmetic skills, and managed to catch up with Kite, who was on the mend. Not yet, it wasn't performing enough.

"As always, that kid's the only one who's playing us."

"Well, thanks to you, we're getting mucky and developing, too."

"Different."

Everyone is convinced by Orr's words. They're technicians. That's also a skilled technician at making one-offs. When it failed to create a dish that would satisfy the user, it involved their vouchers. Then it was no longer the case that we were already talking about it.

In the end, I'm with you everywhere. If you have a mighty enemy that you can't win alone, you just have to challenge it in numbers. Ultimately, the existential significance of the Uncrowned Troop (No Orders) technical squad was to develop a weapon capable of handling Kite. And while we're talking about that, the fireflies finish sweeping almost all the demons around them.

"Residual power... zero. Assignment, Complete"

"Uhm. Then return."

Copy that.

At Tina's direction, the fireflies blow the flying plane up again. Naturally, we're headed for the airship. Thus, the fireflies cross the 'set of iron rides' onto the airship.

"Arrival complete... good crosslinking. Professor. Crosslinked, complete."

'Um. Now, give us a little help with the analysis. We have to do the analysis quickly.'

Copy that.

When the firefly leaves the "set of iron rides", it is decided to enter the support of Tina, who is performing the ritual site analysis on the summit of the mountain without going straight back to the airship.

"You're here. From a little distance, take an overall view. Gather the information."

Copy that.

Fireflies rise again at Tina's direction, who was conducting a ritual site investigation. As such, it travels a little farther from the summit. Thus, as before, he decided to observe the flow of magic by wearing a helmet-shaped magic prop.

"Professor, observe the flow of magic... the mountain appears to be located at the point of concentration of the earth's pulse."

"I see... you're gathering strength..."

"I affirm that presumption"

Firefly admits it because Tina's guess was consistent with her own. Her helmet observations also recognized that magic was pouring in from the ground from the perimeter toward the ritual venue. If so, the purpose of that magic formation is to gather magic.

"Can you analyze why it's glowing here?

"... unknown. If I may speculate."

'I don't mind. Talk.'

At Tina's request, Firefly presents the most likely inference from his own analysis results.

"This light is emanating from the ground. Probably something derived from it."

"Hmm... still underground, huh? If so, should this also be seen as having a stone chamber in the basement... the results of the acoustic measurements?

"Access the airship... I affirm. From the observations, I thought it was very likely."

'Hmm... okay. Down to the basement. Your Lord will continue to observe from the outside on the spot. "

Copy that.

Tina, the firefly spoken, moves the pedestal with the magic props on it in the ritual hall. Then there was the guidance staircase.

"Mm-hmm? Soon the basement... the depth doesn't seem to be constant... the light was zero because of this."

Tina makes all the predictions in the stone room that she immediately sees. In Tina's opinion, Kite's discovery of Fionel's stone chamber was deep underground and there was no light leaking outside. At the same time, it was possible to discover things that could not be discovered as a result of having boundaries stretched close to the village.

"Hmm... this is still a magic convergence, not a technique for sending it somewhere... but it's undergoing a slight alteration... Hmm... I see. After all, the location is not irregular, but is it set at the assembly point of the ground vein? Besides, you're letting it spread moderately so you can control it... and if that's why the demons have gathered, or... then the south side is limited too... no, then on this scale, four is not enough. At least 8... I'd like 20 if I could. '

Tina looks at the stone room with her own eyes and gets some certainty and makes further assumptions.

"Good. This is it all, I guess. Aigis, hack into the system of the airship and connect me to Princess Laicia."

"Oh, my God."

Tina immediately lists a place on the south side of McDawell that matches the criteria and asks Aigis to connect her to Shea. Through this, I thought I would report to the Emperor Leonhardt.

'... I see. Copy that. That'll help. How big are you expected to be?

'That's right... at least 10. If there's more, that's all I want. but if it's too much, we can control it now, and it's going to be necessary, so if it's all an altar of this magnitude, 15 is the limit. "

'What if it's on a different scale?

"Well... I want eight altars of this magnitude and 20 small altars without sacrifice. You don't need at least four altars of this size. Depending on what you call in, and the size of the main hall... '

At Shea's request, Tina opens her own guess. There are still a lot of things I don't know because there was too little information about the enemy, so I guess what I had to guess was that I had no choice.

"Yeah... well, we're gonna have to put together a pretty massive search party."

'Uhm. That said, the range goes as far as Heisenberg territory. More inefficient than that. Then I asked.'

It was the Kingsguard Corps and each noble army that were currently preparing to leave, but it was very helpful to have some information on what to look for before that departure. As such, communication with Shea is cut off and Tina resumes the investigation again.

"Hmm... have you been able to analyze where you're going?

"Denial. Under the influence of a special force field, the force is perfectly concealed. Coupled with the master's information, there is one possible possibility. I can think of the power of the Moon Goddess."

"It's troublesome... we just have to analyze it into tunnels, or..."

It's a magic stream that I couldn't see too close from Tina's location, but from the firefly position, they say jamming works and doesn't know. And no matter how Tina used the power of the gods to divert ground veins, it took a while to analyze them.

If it is a kite that has protection - in this case, the protection of the char - or a yuri that is acknowledged by the person in question and has effects close to simulated protection, the visibility can also be invalidated thanks to that protection, but in Tina, where there is no protection, we had to take the time to analyze it.

"Hmm... you can destroy it right away..."

Tina understood that analyzing the magic formation and destroying it would not scratch the ground vein, but destroying it would inevitably prevent her from knowing where she was going.

Besides, there's nothing wrong with this place when I crushed one, but there's a chance that if I crushed it cheaply, I could have gone into enemy outrage.

He wanted to discover the enemy's home base and destroy it at the same time as his assault there. Given the hassle of moving, etc., it would still be the quickest way to analyze this place than to destroy it.

"Hmm... Kate, where's the current location?

"Now? We're moving south of Minado Village. We're looking for Sola and the others."

"I don't suppose you're letting me run wild, huh?

"Oh, I don't suppose the kidnappers could be assaulted at the moment. In the meantime, calming down was a success."

Kite answers Tina's query, sighing a little. Some of the adventurers who had been captured in Fionel territory had been held captive for more than a month. But all of them testified that none of them had been assaulted except for that rampant female adventurer, who, on the contrary, had been threatened to eat a solid meal. There was not enough mausoleum or anyone else.

He also told me that whoever tried to assault him was executed. That's why they were all grown up, too. It was decided that if safety was ensured, it would be best to ask for an opportunity. It was the right decision.

If so, he told them that the kidnapped face would not be blamed either. Instead of being assaulted, they thought they could not assault for some purpose.

The reason is still incomprehensible, but I guess the purpose is something very important to them. Otherwise, I couldn't even think of the need to bother executing my runaway companions.

'And that's the thing. In any case, they forbade assault on women. "

"Hmm... wait... it's also been told that this is the power of the goddess of the moon... that the root of that power lies in virginity... if... no, not everyone does, and before that, there's no way that virginity will increase its magic. It's not hard to find a virgin among adventurers with lots of explanations... hmm... if..."

Tina arrives at one reasoning as she trims her information with the situation that Kate has. That was an inference from the fact that it was not mausoleum. And in that place, a firefly that was on alert outside puts in a report.

Professor, I found the cabin. There's a life response inside. "

"Hmm... okay. I'll be there for the rest."

Listening to Firefly, Tina goes outside and moves to a cabin in the mountains a little further away. There were women there who had been captured. So, to one of them, Tina asks.

"Oh, thank you..."

"I don't really want to hear about this... Lord, are you a virgin?

"Oops!? Whoo! Ho ho... yes, suddenly what...!?

A woman dyes her face bright red in Tina's sudden and uncanny inquiry. Well, I didn't even have to ask the answer.

"Oh, you don't have to say. Now I understand."

"Uh, no, hey..."

Whether there is a bright red woman to her ears to Tina, convinced by one person on her own, and even more so without explanation, she opens and closes her mouth and can't say anything.

but leaving such a woman alone, Tina asks the other women as well. Thus, in the third person, at last, we arrived at a woman who seemed to be the adventurer of purpose.

"No... no, but..."

"How's it going? I want to ask you, the last time I fucked you was over 3 months ago, huh?

"... why do I have to tell you that?

She was a female adventurer who answered without being able to light her up, but it would be rare for her to ask me when was the last time she fucked a guy she didn't know on a boulder. Therefore, on the contrary, I could not understand the intention and was questioned.

"Mm-hmm. Perhaps there, I can understand why you guys shouldn't be abusive"

"Yeah?"

"Do you know how long once we interact and then that other person's magic waveform will remain?

"No..."

"This is about 3 months, which is the norm. But it's generally said that in about a month, we hardly know anymore."

"No, I waited. Answer me. Stop commenting."

A hairless female adventurer who doesn't know or intends to know when she asks, rushes to Tina and sticks her right hand out to stop the commentary. Even though I was tired of being captured, I didn't want to hear any more headache little difficult logic. As much as I heard that, it would have been easier to talk about something that I had no problem with talking about.

"Two weeks ago. About three months ago, coincidentally, you combined with a bit of a good adventurer. One shot at the time of breakup, so..."

"Uhm, it helps"

Tina bows her head to the words of a female adventurer who doesn't seem to be vomiting. As you can guess, it was. There were no women captured for up to a month, even in reports from Kate.

I mean, you should never do anything for a month after you capture him. They waited for the traces of others to disappear due to the purifying action of men, because they used them for ritual sacrifices.

Try to gain the pure magic of the unclean person alone, and don't be abusive. It was difficult for him to be rambled there and waste his preparation for it. You're trying to get in the way of the ritual, so it's natural to be killed. He's with the enemy, so to speak.

"As I presume, huh? Kate, did you hear that?

'Oh. In the meantime, thanks for being able to provide certainty. I'll tell Sola and the others. "

The conversation now was also making Kate listen through Tina's hidden magic props. And listen to that, and leak relief for now. If it means influencing rituals, the enemy won't be able to do it.

No, I can't, I'm glad I said. And that turned out to be a trump card to stop the Solas until Kite went. Runaway and dog death, it was my biggest nightmare.

"Then let's do another investigation and find out where this magic is headed."

"Oh, but... what's up?

I asked for it. That's what I tried to say, Kite, but at that moment, it looked like the ship had been contacted. Two leaves have broken in.

"Master, Mother. Urgent. '

"What?

"Cherry blossoms are sending out an emergency signal that can reward an emergency. The direction is southeast of the machine. It's central McDawell territory. '

"'Become'"

What a bad time. Kate and Tina complain at the same time about the reports received. That said, I can't be stunned as it is. Immediately, Kite asked for information.

"Chi... what's going on!

'Unknown. I am in disconnected contact with Sakura... no, from Ise, who is accompanying me. abducted by some group with Master Killier, he said. Details unknown. Looks like the enemy has a pretty advanced cover.'

Killier, too? Then why even cherry blossoms? For ransom?

"Now turn them around later."

'Right... right. That said, don't worry about who the bad guys are, or boulders... there are a lot of guys after nobility... and what's wrong with rescue...'

"I don't know what's going on... it's far from the rest of the position..."

I'm too short on boulders. Tina cannot move because she has to investigate this ritual. I can't throw this one away either. Kate is on her way to rescue Sola and the others. Given the location in question, the Adventure Department's Immediate Response Unit will not immediately follow either. Besides, Kite decided to cut the trump card to a sigh mix.

'... Shh. Cut the trump card...'

"That's all I have. What about your lord?

"I'm headed for the cherry blossoms. Let's ask Sola and the others. I'm gonna get you all fucked up."

"Uhm. Once the rest of this analysis is complete, we shall immediately lead the army into this strange ritual."

"I'll take care of it"

Kate and Tina begin to move into action when they decide on each other's next policy. As such, things became even more confusing.
