Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave
Episode 1499: Opro Ruins - Power Room -
What Charlotte had, Legado. The investigation team led by Kite was able to use Nimbus Laboratory keys to go further behind the Opro ruins. For once, they decided not to close the main door with some kind of impact.
"Good. This won't close naturally for now...... Operations Command Office. This is Central Building Squad One."
"What's wrong?
"Dealing with the main door, which I reported earlier, is over. Moving on from this."
'Copy that. Oh, yeah. The construction of a relay base by Kingsguard Corps has been drafted here and approved by the upper ranks of the army. After tomorrow, if you need manpower or reinforcements to explore the basement floor, ask them for help'
"Okay."
I still don't know how big it is from here on out. In addition, there may be enemies ahead. It will be necessary to secure the exit route and, in the unlikely event, to rescue the kites.
but I can't fail to investigate elsewhere. Nothing in particular has been found, but it is possible to find something new than an unknown structure found here. There's no way we're not going to investigate.
"Good... now don't move on. Worst case scenario is, just kick it in."
Kate looked at the slightly larger debris she had brought to the ground as a stopper and nodded one. Fortunately, it would not have been the type of door that moves up or down, but the type that opens with a push and pull. It seemed like a normal door, not just a protective wall or something. Thanks to this, I was able to work on it so that it would not close to this extent.
Everybody, move on.
When Kite completes securing his exit, he decides to move on again. but then again I looked firmly at the end of the aisle and realized it was only a little bright.
"A little... bright?
"The emergency light went on as the door opened and closed."
"Is that it... the power?"
"Ask Regad."
Charlotte throws it away at Kate's words. I mean, they don't know. It should be noted that according to what Legado later told me, it utilizes extremely trace amounts of atmospheric magic (mana). But what I was able to do when I thought about the size was to prevent it from becoming dark, and it only looked like it was on a light source that was even lower than the minimum constant night light.
"Aye... though this doesn't seem like you need to at least use a flashlight to move on. I appreciate your hands free."
Until now, everyone had a flashlight in one hand or burned a light source to progress. Then some hands were really blocked. All hands free would have been appreciated given the battle.
"Everybody, I'm not thinking about an investigation today. It's an investigation into how safe it is. Hang the flashlight. Instead, we can move to battle at any time...... Mr. Ziart. I'm sorry, but you should leave the flashlight where possible."
"" Copy that. ""
"Okay."
Everyone who has been instructed by Kite will hang flashlights and other light sources where they can be hung, and Tsiato will keep the flashlights in one hand. As a result, I noticed that the number of rooms in this hierarchy was strangely low.
"That's a strangely small number of rooms...... Schal. Have you come this far yet?
"Yeah...... Second dining room and locker over there. There's a locker outside... but I hear you made it here for some reason. It's in this hierarchy because it needs size and neither is important."
"I see. It's troublesome to make both out on purpose, or"
That's what I'm talking about.
If you're going somewhere for lunch, there's still no way you can get out of this facility after it's been built. If so, you don't even have to bother going outside through that big door. Even the guards will have trouble managing it. It was much more efficient to build it in the cafeteria. I quickly got to the front of the stairs when I was talking about not having such a benefit.
"So, here's the stairs and"
"Right... the heart of this institute is down here"
"What about the power furnace?
"In the center. There are other things to accommodate, so there's a room on the top floor of the facility and a two-storey bump out. If we go straight to the middle, we'll find him soon."
"Rikai"
When Kate nods one at Charlotte's commentary, she re-establishes one temper. I've never met a moving golem so far, but they say it's an important facility from here on out. Maybe the moving golem was still patrolling. As I slowly went down the stairs that way, I could see a slightly different structure than before.
"Hmmm... conical, something like that. It looks like it's on the edge here..."
That's how Tsiato shrugged as he lit up his surroundings. As for the structure, it's conical, as Charlotte said. Apparently, there's this entrance and exit in the outer periphery of that top floor. Left, right and front there was a passage, a structure that could go both ways. In the center, you can see the door, and there's a room. I'm guessing this is the power room.
"Let's just go straight ahead...... Command. Respond... no."
Apparently, the soil jamming Sonar has also jammed communications for communication. The operator never responded to Kite's request.
"Firefly, how's your comms?
"Mother, respond."
'... this one won't be a problem. I let them install a repeater along the way. It's like they did a great job... hmm. but it's pretty noisy. Probably nothing will connect us if we move to a hierarchy below it. This time it's good to the power room, so there's no problem.'
When the firefly that Kite asked for confirmed it, it was apparently connected thanks to a relay set up in the middle of the stairs. I guess because the stairs aren't affected. As such, when Kate links the firefly to her own, she consults with Tina.
"Right...... Tina. Arrange to bring in a spare relay and additional relays from there."
'Okay. I'll arrange it here.'
"Good... we're moving on"
Kate decides to ask Tina to arrange work from tomorrow and move on. Firefly alone is a separate line because it is necessary to obtain various inspection data. It was determined that it would be necessary to use separate lines individually from the point of view of information volume, encryption, etc., and a repeater or the like was installed separately. At Tina's behest, a small relay was installed in the middle of the stairs, which led to the connection.
"Is this the center... hmm? Mr. Ziato. Can you illuminate this metal plate?
"Oh, okay"
The kite stopped in front of the power chamber where it reached first, but asks Tsiat to illuminate it by noticing the plate next to the door. When Tsiato, who so requested, illuminated the plate, he managed to read the letters, although they were dirty with dust.
"Is this... a power chamber?
Read out the letters Kite was listed in. Apparently, as Charlotte said, there's a power reactor ahead of us. It should also be noted that there are stairs to the left and right, which are connected to all the underground hierarchies from here where we later examined them. And at Kite's request, Ziart, who was illuminating the letters, asks Kite.
"Hmm... what do we do? I can see the stairs from left to right..."
"... let's just check the power chamber for now. It is also possible that the power reactor is alive if this is the case. Fortunately, the same control terminal is right next to it as just now. You'll be able to open it."
"Right. Okay."
Apparently, Ziart decided to respect Kite's decision. Adventurers are experts in unknown structures. That seemed like Ziart knew too. So, Kate nodded one to Charlotte.
"Shull, please"
"Yeah... I'll open it."
"Oh."
Looking at Kite, who grabbed a knife suspended on his hip, Charlotte makes the control terminal directly next to the power chamber recognize his card key. Apparently this was also restarted due to external power supply, the same as the main door that was in the upper hierarchy, and it looked usable. So Gacon, along with the sound, the central circular part turned and the key was unlocked.
"... no movement. Calendar, door. Hide yourself in the shadow of the door as soon as you open it. Moon moves to the side aisle just in case you can collect your calendar immediately."
"Yes."
"Rikai"
Upon instruction from the subsequent kite, the calendar and the moon move to their respective locations. That's how I got ready and one calendar nodded, and Kite nodded back at it.
"Open"
When the calendar declares so, it pulls the door and hides itself. As such, Kite also maximizes her vigilance, but fortunately there is nothing inside, and she never eats surprise attacks. The power room also seems to be busting through the floor of this hierarchy as Charlotte informs it, and there were steps from here to see the full story.
"Calendar. That's good enough. There are no enemies inside."
"Phew... Ah, Mr. Moon. Thank you."
I didn't do anything.
"Moon, you need to get back in line. So, we're all going inside."
When Kite returns the moon and calendar to the queue, he decides to get them all together and into the power room. That's how it entered the power room, but the power furnace was left almost completely because it was still simply evicted. Seeing such a sight, Ziato raised his admiration unexpectedly.
"This is... awesome. I've never seen a power reactor in good condition so far. If you do it badly, it could be more than a magic furnace in Raingard's underground ruins."
"Is it going to work?
"I'm not an expert, so I can't tell you for sure... but it's probably going to work when it's in perfect condition so far"
Tsiato, questioned by Kite, looks at the power furnace and makes that clear with slight excitement. That's what he thought was safe here, and he was intriguingly taking notes out and observing his surroundings thoroughly. And Kate decided it was just as safe again, so I decided to let her like him for the first time.
"All of you, get down to exploring the surroundings. But always mind the two-man cell. Also, be careful that everyone can always put everyone in your sight. Plus, if you can't confirm from this location, we'll get back to you immediately, so turn around. Firefly, you report the situation once outside. The escort will have me and Charles."
"" Copy that. ""
Each member of the investigation team directed by Kite is scattered in all directions. Again, the power room was quite large, and it was too inefficient to explore together. and so while waiting for the firefly report, kite takes out the flashlight and again observes the interior of the power chamber.
"In the meantime... it doesn't look like there's any danger. The power furnace is...... three. At this size, the output seems pretty high..."
"This is the only way to cover all the electricity on this one-kilometer radius site. I need this."
"Is that so..."
The power reactor in the power room is about 10 meters tall and is egg-shaped. A conductor similar to a thick pipe is attached to both the top and bottom, and I guess this accommodates the energy generated in each facility. And, while Kate was looking at the demon conductor, his shoulder Yuri was looking forward.
"Hey, Sharu. That pillar, what?
"The central pillar... oh, you're an emergency elevator. In case you're going to use that to get out to the top... I don't know where or how to get out."
"Heh..."
"Hmmm... I don't know where you're going from here..."
Kite - naturally, but I hear him - to Charlotte's words and Yuri looks up once and looks near the ceiling. The elevator shaft was also stretched up through the ceiling and seemed to continue up to the upper floors.
It should be noted that the shaft was connected in the form of a ground burial just outside this central building, according to an investigation team formed a few years later. It would have been nice if the top of the shaft had been blown out in an emergency and the escape route was supposed to be secured. And with that in mind, communications came in from the month of January.
"Kite. Can you hear me?
"What's up?
'Over here. There was a console. Looks like you could use it for now...'
"... there. All right. I'll be on my way as soon as the report is done."
When Kate relies on the flashlight to find out what the moons look like, she decides to wait for the fireflies to report further. So after the firefly report was finished, we walked to the moon and calendar.
"So, this is the console"
"Yeah...... what do we do?
"Start the boulder with instructions from the upper management. Well, if you report today, the startup will be tomorrow."
In response to the moon inquiry, Kite clearly stated that she would ask for instructions from the upper management. It was originally judged highly probable that a power chamber would be found, and it is moving in consideration of the likelihood that upper military personnel will also be found. Therefore, it is certain to move it.
but it's hard to predict what's going on until then until we get in. So even if we actually move it, we need permission and preparation, so how early will it be tomorrow? And when I was checking the condition of the console that way, communication came in again.
"Heavenly Voice. Can you hear me? '
"What?
"Behind you."
"Hmm?"
Two guild members were waving there as Kite turned to the inquiry of the guild member who was on the squad. Apparently that's what they called it.
"Door, can you see?
"Oh... it's probably a door that leads to the basement third floor part. You think it's gonna open?
'... No, you can't. It's not going to move. Maybe not without a card key. "
"Right. Then leave the light source there as a landmark for once. You were in your luggage, weren't you?
'Okay. I'm gonna work on it, so get people over here.'
"Okay."
At the request of the Alliance members, Kite decides to send personnel to the other side to exercise perimeter vigilance during the operation. As such, it was decided to take a few hours at a time to communicate with the outside in a timely manner, while checking the status of the power room and pulling it up that day.
