Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Lesson 786: Awakening Disturbances

Things were changing like the eyes of a cat.

In the first place, from their point of view, it was a blue sky.

[Emergency alert position issued. Multiple simultaneous raids on foreign liaison have been confirmed.]

The first report spread all over the facility in an instant.

The ground liaison unit at the first important information record sealing base was forcibly destroyed at about the same time, allowing someone to enter.

[First level; passive intercept zone fully functional]

Fortunately, the intruders who had kicked the doorway and appeared rough were mostly defeated by first-tier defenses. They were short-circuited, intelligent, and shallow-minded. It's easy to catch a simple trap, and thanks to it, you can't slow down a mere passage.

But no matter how many they killed, a new one soon appeared. And they avoid the traps that they used once, as if they were keeping memories of when they died.

The impatience, like that of the security department, was not unusual. Having jumped out of the “bed” by a sudden emergency alert instruction, they had to carefully observe the intruders and intercept them.

[First Tier; Passive Intercept Zone] Breakthrough. We've been compromised in the second level, active intercept zone.

The intruders appeared indefinitely, constantly breaking in. It was as if they were sparing their own lives, and sometimes even those who jumped into the open trap did not know what to do.

They had many experiences with death. Learned, accumulated, and reflected. It was as if the group itself was a single life form.

The first level of defense has been devastated by a lot of violence, allowing us to break into the second level.

[Enter various machine guards (security)]

[From this time, the second tier will be set to the combat zone. Non-combatants should be reprimanded in the lower safe zone.]

I ran a routine announcement and turned on the machines that were covered in dust in the warehouse. Periodic maintenance inspections by the Equipment Department are carried out at intervals of 100 years. Most mechanical guards (security) failed to start due to aging.

Even so, several kinds of machine guards (security) managed to move out one after the other. I couldn't afford to be equipped with advanced combat intelligence. In the first place, all power systems had been damaged by aging, and most of the resources saved had been pushed to the bottom.

The security department tried to fulfill their role while accumulating anger at the equipment department and procurement department that were sleeping with Yasuya on the "bed".

[Machine guard (security) in stable operation. Damage rate 80%]

It was a desperate situation that reached the ears of the security department passing through the warehouse and the secret passage. Machine guards (security) sent out in prayer are being destroyed one after another. Even if it had only minimal combat intelligence, and even if it could not perform as it should due to aging, it was too hard a reality.

[The recovery rate of damaged mechanical guards (security) is less than 70%]

Ruthless facts are conveyed as if they were going to be pursued even further.

The destroyed mechanical guards were being tampered with by the intruders. It was a nightmare in a situation where even Wu was seeing a depletion of resources.

In this case, it is not enough to reuse the scrap to produce a new machine guard (security). In the first place, the manufacturing factory looked miserable, so it was impossible to talk about it anyway.

The Security Department was shaking with anger at the Facilities Department and fear of the intruder as it rushed around.

[Facility Structure Control Device Restored]

The announcement was gospel.

Luckily for them, the intruders are unaware of their presence and are unable to destroy the aisle's structure. The intruders can only go down the aisle honestly, so they are unaware of the secret aisle behind it.

The security department hastily slammed the controls and jumped to cut off the intruder. We lowered the bulkheads one after another, separating the group and destroying each of them.

Their manoeuvres yielded certain results, and the intruders were caught up in chaos one after another. Even more luck seemed to be on their side, and almost all of the bodies of the intruders were made up of crude metal. The intruder was a machine lifeform.

The security department recovered the bodies of the intruders along with the wreckage of the mechanical guards (security). They were all thrown into scrapers and managed to manipulate the decaying factory to create additional mechanical guards (security).

[Emergencies, Emergencies]

[I am picking up an attack from the destruction of space-time structure]

It was too harsh a pronouncement to break the heart of such a security department.

A sudden onslaught was launched by intruders who thought they only had primitive systems of technology.

No matter how robust the structural walls are, they will not be able to destroy their fundamental significance. The intruder who destroyed the trap in the first tier reaches the second tier with his momentum. And it started to pierce like a bug was eating the fruit.

[Annihilation Order Activated]

[From this time onwards, the second tier will be designated as the area to be annihilated. Non-combatants should immediately cease any incursions]

The security department screamed at the intruders who were advancing at the bamboo breaking momentum.

The destruction order was immediately accepted and the machine guards (security) moved into a rampage. If this happens, it won't stop until you can't move anymore. However, the intruders who wander the second tier destroy them one after another and survive. The intruders who were driven to the confinement site by the facility structural controls also remained tenacious.

Shortly before we thought we could finally destroy the intruders, the intruders, who were using unusual force, destroyed the situation.

He who falls from his lap, he who whimpers, he who touches his will. The security department was surrounded by dark air.

The intruders rendezvous, ignoring the facility's path, as if they knew where each other was. Then formed a sturdy shelter, in which she fell silent.

[Facility Damage Rate 2%]

[The damage is minor as a result of the Damage Assessment Program calculations]

What's so minor, you idiot? Such an outrage has been pushed up by the security department.

The enemy has a vicious weapon that destroys space-time structures. Looking at the damage now, at least we don't have the means to stop it. No matter how sturdy a shield is, if it is destroyed from its higher dimensions, it will have no origin or child.

Executives at the security department discussed their future actions in a painful manner. Should we make a total stand or swear obedience to an opponent whose resistance is so strong that it makes no sense?

If you choose a total defense, the Security Department can, at its sole discretion, force the personnel of other departments to awaken. Arm the non-combatants.

- But if they destroy us. If the defeat is decided. We cannot fulfill our mission. It's just buried in the soil and dies.

― ― We have endured a long time in order to overcome all calamities and connect treasures to future generations. I couldn't lose this precious treasure that my predecessors left me here.

--If the invaders ravage it, their treasures will be destroyed.

--You can promise us our lives in return.

― ― Even if such an intention is conveyed to them, it does not mean that the promise will be kept.

The discussion was controversial. The intruders did not come out of their shells, and pressed their answers. He who is strong, he who is weak. optimistic, pessimistic. Extremists, moderates. Hustle and bustle continued to reward me with words, and everyone forgot their purpose.

It was then. The intruders, who had been silent for a long time, began to move. Machine guards (security) in a rampage were attacked. And the intruders walked in the direction that the security department feared most.

A vast record of vital information buried deep underground. A huge cylindrical facility made of special high hardness structural materials with a total of 35 levels. The thick wall to the central control area, the heart that runs vertically through the center, was easily destroyed.

[Warning, confirmed intrusion into centrally controlled area]

[Security should deploy immediately to clear the area of intruders]

[Warning, confirmed intrusion into centrally controlled area]

[Security should deploy immediately to clear the area of intruders]

Under the rough alarm, this time the security department is like poking a beehive. The red warning lights glowed, and voices rose everywhere that could not be seen as screams or screams.

The chaos was caused by the calm words of the chief security officer, who kept silent.

― ― We at DWARF seek peaceful interactions with intruders in order to store and preserve records, and attempt rational dialogue.
