We have a level system in place for mankind.
scene: 147 The Battle of Izur Pass
We discussed where the bandits from Canberra would come from.
"I think it's more likely to come from the sea."
As I said, Kawai nodded in agreement.
"There are alien beasts on land." After all, after coming to the nearby harbor by sea, I wonder if it's by land. "
If we attack the coal fields, we should be able to get the ships into the nearby harbor and switch overland. There are two ports that are candidates. It is the port of Nukai and the port of Bachen.
What do we do?
"We have to split up and keep an eye on them." Michihal, keep an eye on the port of Birkenau. "
“How do I get in touch?”
Let's use the source repulsive output device.
Research on the source repulsion output device progressed, and it was miniaturized to the size of a hand-held safe. The number of characters that can be sent and received at a time has also increased to 40 characters in Kanji.
I'll get the source repulsion output device out of subspace and give it to Kawai. Kawai took it and put it on the Will plane. Kawai flew to Bachen Harbor on a Wilplane.
I'll take the rest of the car to Nukai Harbor. Nukai Harbor is a fairly large harbor where large ships used to unload. However, in a world like this, only shipping ships from Japan and the United States are docked.
I decided to watch the harbor from the warehouse at Nukai Harbor. When I opened the door of the warehouse, it was empty. I opened the door a little bit and started to use the telescope that was in subspace to pitch in.
I was hungry, so I took out the preserved food fruit from the subspace. The fruit of this preserved food is the fruit of the tree of production. It is a newly created kind of fruit, which cannot be said to be a complete meal, but the pulp containing each nutrient in a balanced way is contained in a hard shell like a walnut.
The taste is similar to that of bananas when eaten raw, and it tastes like baked potatoes when warmed by fire.
I know it's amazing food, but I hate it when it goes on every day.
As the name suggests, preserved food can be stored at room temperature for about six months. In Yashiro, the number of inserts has been increased to make this fruit a specialty, but it will take a few years before it can be exported as a specialty.
I took one of the preserved fruits, which was about the size of a tennis ball, and twisted it up and down in a different direction, and the shell cracked in the middle. When the white fruit is put in the mouth, it has a banana flavor.
I ate about three of these fruits and my hunger subsided. On the first day, the stakeout ended with an empty gesture, and the stakeout continued the next day.
I finished my lunch with the preserved food again, and as I watched the harbor, the ship approached from the south. I can see the men with guns on the approaching ship.
Canberra Bandit, no doubt about it.
I contacted Kawai in a hurry. He said he'd be here soon. The outlaws began to unload their vehicles from the ship. The vehicle I am using is an electric vehicle.
It's not because it's eco-friendly, but because gasoline is no longer available, only electric vehicles can be used. Australia is home to the Kingfish and Halibat fields, which have been devastated by alien beasts.
Gasoline is not available in Australia either. Maybe they use coal-fired power to make electricity and charge electric cars.
However, this electric vehicle is also temporary, and it will be over if it breaks down and the parts are no longer available. It's different from the high-motor vehicles manufactured by Yashiro.
Eight vehicles were unloaded from the ship, and about forty outlaws boarded.
Kojiro, you're here.
Finally, Kawai appeared, so I decided to go ahead with the Will Plane. First, I went to the office in the coalfield and told Representative Jenkins that the Canberra bandits were coming to attack.
"Even though it can't last long if you keep doing this kind of lawless thing... we'll have to ambush you at the Izur Pass."
Representative Jenkins looks gloomy. I don't think he's going to like it because he has to kill the same Australian.
But we can't leave the Canberra bandits behind. If we do that, there will be casualties among Queenslanders.
We went to Izur Pass and waited for the Canberra bandits to come.
And when eight electric cars came up the ramp, Jenkins ordered a shootout. Numerous submachine guns blow fires and make holes in electric vehicles.
"Wow!"
Surprised screams and screams echo as electric cars slam into the trees on the side of the road. The sound of horns echoing high. And when the gunshots stopped, about thirty bodies were born.
"Be careful, we have survivors."
Someone jumped out of the car and fled into the woods. Kawai and I started looking for the forest.
Then we find a man with a bullet in his stomach.
Surrender!
Mayday.
The man tried to use some kind of skill. However, Kawai suddenly jumped the distance using [Shrinkage] and slammed the [Heavenly Thunder] palm of [Five Thunder Palms].
The man died in a single blow. At that moment, another man attacked from behind the river well. When I was in my spirits, I stood my blade and jumped.
With a stronger leg, my body flew to the enemy's neck in an instant. The man parries the blade and spear with his sword.
Are you Japanese?
"Yes, it is."
“Why are you interrupting us? It has nothing to do with Japanese people."
“It has something to do with this, because what lies ahead is a Japanese-controlled coalfield. And the people who work there are also employed by Japan.”
The man looks down on me with hatred. Suddenly, the man activated his skill. I didn't feel murderous, so I knew it wasn't an attack, and the response was delayed. The wind began to blow around the man, wrapping his body around him.
Could it be that it's a defense using the [Manipulation] skill?
"What's wrong with that?"
As he answered, the man stepped in and swung out his sword. I'll jump back and avoid it. The man tried to activate his skill again, so I jammed it by releasing the blade spear's thrust.
Now when I tried to activate the [Purple Flame Strike] of [Flame Manipulation], the man's sword interrupted me. I thought it was interesting that it was not a flashy skill fight, but also a physical and combat power fight.
