Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 723: Let's Go to the Botanical Garden

After Wade hit my farm, I was flying with them.

"You really got on this plane..."

A small aircraft that is dedicated to administrators is marked with the symbol of the Reclamation Corps. Sometimes I saw them flying over distant skies, but I didn't think they would be able to ride.

Of course, you can't fly a plane without a UAV.

“If I were to say that, who in the Expedition would ride in a UAV?”

My question was blocked by Wade's grumbling.

"Anyway, first of all, Seed 02-- [Wade] -- let's head over there." I would like to confirm the plant-type protozoa reception facility. "

Konohana Sakya cuts out the story as she sits in a comfortable chair that doesn't wobble.

The reason Wade hit us and why we're using a special plane to get to Wade. That's because her town has a reception facility for my plants.

I can't believe it. Why should I bring such dangerous goods into my city? ”

Always angry, Wade's tone became rough. She is answered by Susano and Wadatsumi, who made the decision to build the reception facility.

Ahh. It's a good idea to put primitive protozoa under control.

However, because it is dangerous, I have to choose the place carefully. The second reclamation area is out of the question in the first place, but my town (Wadatsumi) is also difficult considering the danger of primitive native plants spreading into the sea in the unlikely event of a housing violation. "

Seed 01-Susanoo, [Susanoo] is an important facility that underpins the reclamation activities. Even in the sense of accepting new pods and recruits dropped from Amateur Terrace, we cannot create facilities that are at risk of runaway.

In addition, Seed 02 is also known as the Mecca of Three Techniques. The reason for this is that there is a large dragon vein (rayline) running in the ground, but if it connects with primitive protozoa, the damage will be great.

Seed 03, on the contrary, does not have the resources to sustain the botanical primitive in his desolate lands.

Seed 01 - Amatsumara and Seed 02 - Amatsumara, < Amatsumara > and < Homsubi > in the secluded areas of the north do not have enough land resources to set up such a facility in the first place.

Based on each reason, it seems that Seed 02-Susanoo, or Wade, is optimal.

And there's another reason why Wade thinks he's qualified.

Wadazumi says with one finger upright.

Based on the raid on the Explorer Ledge, Wade is focusing on expanding and developing the city's defense facilities. In a sense, it's the safest city. ”

And this isn't the same story again!

"Hahaha..."

You shouldn't be in a good position to laugh either!

In the first place, the fact that Wade and I went directly to the central computing device in the central control tower of [Wade] to talk about the current body and thoughts. In a sense, Wade, who could not be said to be the first victim, hardened the security of the central control tower and continued to take measures on a daily basis so that he would never allow intrusions in the future.

This time, the high level of defense consciousness was used as a backdrop, and it was pulled out to the installation site of a dangerous facility.

But Wade also gave us permission to build. You must have been convinced. "

That's...

Stared at by Susano, Wade twitched.

Even though Susanoo and Wadatsumi applied for it, it is impossible to set up a facility without the permission of the city management. The fact that a facility is being built in Wade means that she admitted it.

In the first place, she's one of the administrators who wants to run the expansion protocol. I know all the difficulties, the importance, and the reasons why primitive organisms were chosen.

I still want to burn it.

No, you can't!

Wade looked at the cargo bay behind the plane with his sedentary eyes. You have plants that are being transported under strict sealing and constant infusion of high concentrations of sedatives.

There is not enough room on the transport side or on the receiving side to bring all of them in at once, so for now, there are only a few low-risk items loaded by Konohana Sakya's choice.

The "Guren Winged Flower" in the cargo bay burned a wide area once it was fired. If it burns here, this plane won't hold, and the [Misty Forest of the Odd Dragon] will become a wilderness of charcoal.]

Why are you loading such dangerous goods!

Wade exclaimed with tears to Konohana Sakya, who explained the cargo lightly.

That flower was cultivated because I wanted to try to blossom in a beautiful flower that was like a firework. Originally, the flower petals glowed blurry orange at night, but the fire was strictly forbidden at some point.

No, plants are fantasies, aren't they?

"Ledge's head is incomprehensible (fantasy). Wouldn't it be better to get troubleshooting once?

Wade is as spicy as ever. For the time being, I think it's okay to be a little more friendly, since I'm the manager who has been seeing each other for a long time.

"Oh, it looks like we're almost there."

While talking like that, the manager-only plane enters the landing position. With the rotor of both wings facing down, I slowly stepped down and stood at the top of the silver tower, the central control tower, which was soaring high.

"This is the first time I've come here to see a boulder." It was like a heliport. "

When a city is in a state of devastation, only the main enclosure of [Kusanagi] can escape. Sometimes the investigators will climb up, but it's usually an unrelated place. "

Wade explains as he descends a stretch of talap through the door. It's a grumpy face, but it's the law or the gentleness that answers it properly.

The central control tower is quite high, and the wind is strong in the sky. Even though it is fitted with a fence, it is quite uncomfortable.

The researchers who come up to this place will be fond of something called "climbing momentum". It is a strange player who not only uses behavioral skills, but also techniques and items that can be moved to places that cannot be reached normally.

"Come on, Susano. Hold on."

Ahh. Thank you.

A corner of the rooftop opens up as the caretakers help you get off. An NPC with two arms and four legs emerges from the cargo bay of the plane and takes out a tightly sealed small container.

Look, this way.

Wade looked back down the hole as he was seen working with the NPCs. A collapsible staircase led inside as she rushed after her.

Oh, can't you carry your luggage with you?

I was expecting the NPCs with the containers to continue, but only me and the Administrators got inside the tower. They pull the wire on the fence and go all the way down the outer wall.

There's no way you can bring a dangerous object into the tower. I'll take it to the botanical garden first. "

"That's true, too." This is the most important management area. "

Who was responsible for destroying the security of the most important controlled area?

Your eyes are twitching again and your shoulders are shrinking.

At that time, we had no choice but to do something like that.

After passing through the dimly lit corridor of emergency use, you enter a pure white corridor. From there, take the elevator and exit to the ground floor lobby.

"...... I can't believe you're watching me."

As you exit the elevator with your four stewards, you'll be noticed by all the players visiting the lobby. I didn't do anything wrong, but I fell asleep feeling like I was being taken.

I talk to Wade, who walks next to me, trying to distract him.

Where is the reception facility?

It's a botanical garden. The official name is "Botanical Primordial Biological Management Laboratory", but do the investigators (you) prefer a short name?

Well, I'm not good at being naughty.

When she did so, she snorted and said, “I'll be there soon,” and walked out of the tower.

There it is.

"That's... what, here?"

Zero minute walk from the central control tower. The botanical garden was inside the baseline. And it's a familiar place to me.

"The large tent that Ledge built before and that we took over. It will be converted into a botanical garden facility."

That's when Wade was born.

Amaterasu, a pioneer command ship docked in the geostationary orbit of the planet Izanami. Seed 02 dropped from there. A white tree at the intended impact site. I also had the guidance of the White Moon, and I enlisted the help of many people to protect it.

Eventually, the Seed 02 crushed its trajectory with a desperate interception and fell to the immediate side of the plane, where the control tower was located.

As a result, the white tree is still there, and the white fort that was used at the time, the large tent, is managed by Wade.

It used to be a park centered on a white tree, but it seems to be packing the function of a botanical garden.

"That white tree is also a plant with a lot of unknown parts, unlike normal native creatures. Until now, we didn't conduct research because it was not important, but we plan to conduct research on this occasion.”

Is that so?

At first glance, the white tree has been confirmed outside of here. That being said, the number is as small as three, and what is known is that it is rooted on a thick dragon vein, similar to that of [Wade]. And it just means something important to the White Moon.

Wow! You're pretty ready.

Inside the botanical garden, where the tents were diverted, the construction NPCs were busy moving. It has a white floor, a white ceiling, and a white interior just like the control tower.

It's not interesting, is it?

Safety is more important than interesting. Think for a moment about why you use the same metal as the central control tower. ”

The interior of the botanical garden is finely divided into chambers, each of which can be blocked by a bulkhead. Sprinklers and drug spraying lines are also in place, and in some cases, the chamber is prepared to kill primitive organisms inside the chamber in conditions of extreme heat, extreme low temperature, vacuum, ultra-high pressure, and other conditions.

Is this going to trigger when we're inside?

Of course, we have a backup.

It is an environment where there is no human life in the first place. It's designed to let you die, even if you release dangerous goods into the wild.

Well, I'm fine because there's a return to death.

Although it is a small area on the ground, stretching work is underway in the underground direction. Basically, it is placed deeper than a high-risk, plant-type primitive organism. ”

“Hmm. Perfect security.”

When you say that, it only sounds like an ominous feeling, so please stop it.

What a terrible allegation.

This facility is not just Wade's, it is also home to other controllers - more specifically, the T-1 commanders, who are working together on a variety of designs. Even if I were to break it, it would be quite impossible to make.

I hope you can seal it at the bottom...

"Stop undue restraint."

"I'm kidding," Wade said.

I inadvertently get hot in my eye, wondering if she can joke too.

The facility itself doesn't seem to be a problem. This will allow us to safely manage the proto-native organisms. "

My advisor, Konohana Sakuya, gave me a bit of encouragement, and Wade felt a little relieved.

The plants that came with us are transferred to the low-threat protozoa storage chamber on the ground floor. It was a thick piece of tempered glass, but I could see it.

There's a potted plant in the middle of a pure white room, and the flowers there are quite surprising again.

Unlike our farm, it's very strict. All work is carried out by arms suspended from the ceiling and not even NPC.

By the way, can we normally get into this botanical garden?

I suddenly wondered and asked.

This time, I'm on the move, but this should be a pretty important and dangerous facility. Perhaps the investigators will not be given access to the upper floors of the central control tower during normal times.

However, it seemed that my fear was grief, and Wade shook his head to deny it.

Because the main focus of research is investigators. Our facility will also be unlocked. That said, there is also a certain degree of danger, so we will impose some kind of restriction. "

I see?

It is harder to handle than dangerous goods. Restrictions on personnel will be imposed because it will be troublesome even if a detention violation occurs due to poor touching. However, the main role in the research activity is not the administrator, but us, the investigators and pioneers.

The level of cultivation skills, or the reward for completing a special assignment. I don't know what the terms are, but it seems that Wade will be able to conduct research for those who he deems appropriate.

No, I'm looking forward to completing it.

"I'm feeling heavy right now......"

For now, the Botanical Gardens seem to have enough capacity to accommodate me, the Knights' Cultivation Section, and some high-risk, important plants collected through censorship in each city. After that, it seems that the scale of the facility will be expanded by the discovery of new species and the progress of research.

Wade had a grudge when he was excited about the implementation of the new content, but he turned to us.

”... Wade and the investigator Ledge are very close to each other, aren't they?”

Ahh, the two of you are friendly!

'I hate to admit it, but Wade knows Ledge better than any other manager. That's one of the reasons I entrusted the management of the botanical garden. ”

Behind them, the wormholes say something.

But Wade and I couldn't afford to care less.

Let's get out of here!

It's an emergency evacuation!

Holding the three of them, he jumps out of the chamber in a hurry.

Immediately, a thick bulkhead descended, and the shock of a heavy sinking came from the other side.

What is it?

It was "Guren's Winged Flower". It exploded. "

Hyuh

When she told Konohana Sakuya about the tragedy she had just escaped, she let out a breath from her throat.

"I didn't know..."

Confirm that the four of them are safe while they are stuck on the ground. I don't want to be scorched quickly, even though there are some alternatives to the plane.

However, I didn't expect it to explode all of a sudden.

"... I just got a review of the incident. Apparently, that plant also responds to strong light."

Wade, who looks a little sloppy, quickly analyses the situation and tells me the results. Apparently, the Guren Winged Flower was unknown to me.

Based on this, we will revise the accommodation plan.

“Well, that's it. I'm glad you found out about the facility's safety, right?”

I also felt the ruggedness of the bulkhead. There seems to be no problem with post-processing, and it seems that the accommodation plan will be improved in the future.

In a sense, it can be said that we have been able to confirm that it will be repeated in this facility in the future.

Wade and the others will also be asked to help calculate the incident forecast. I can't handle it alone. "

Roger, I promise to cooperate as much as I can

Ahh!

Wade and the others have learned of the dangers of primitive life. He nodded instantly with a serious face.

Although it was a difficult situation, the botanical garden was gradually starting to operate.
