Guillermo Marchitas, who was looking at the magic screen inside the ruins, smiled.
"He can be made into a puppet with a . ...... Well, let's see what happens."
Golems were gathering in the meadow by Lake Norigi.
On one side were 169 battle golems of Guillermo Marchitas and one support golem. On the other hand, 30 new battle golems of the Nostalgia party, and Elena.
These were sent from a special flying ship that was released for filming. This was also the arrangement of the support golem.
Then, <> were fired at the new battle golems of the Nostalgia party.
But..,
"It doesn't work after all..."
Guillermo Malkitas confirms this through the magic screen and nods his head in agreement.
Then the battle began.
Although the difference in strength was more than five times, the Malkitas side had a large number of players of good quality, while the Nostalgia side had more quality than quantity.
Well, it is significant that the Nostalgia side had only that many golems that were equipped with countermeasures against <>.
Incidentally, the Nostalgia's countermeasure against <> is <>, if I may say so.
In short, they change the waveform of basic magic power of each and every golem.
This means that even if you use a <>, you can only control one golem at a time.
And if the waveform of the <> is changed, the controlled golem will return to its original state.
Before that, the waveform of magic power was difficult to read.
"You've discovered the characteristics of the <>, haven't you? Well, as long as they rely on matter, they will do at least that much."
Guillermo Marchitas muttered words that could be interpreted as a sigh of defeat.
The golems on the side of Markitas and the Nostalgia side entered into a full-scale battle.
The performance of the Nostalgia golem was better. It is roughly twice as powerful.
Golems on the side of Markitas outnumber those on the Nostalgia side. The ratio is 5.63 times.
In terms of the ratio of strength, the Nostalgia side seems to be at a disadvantage. By a simple calculation, they would not be able to defeat a force of 3 at the same time with 2 times their strength.
But then.
Then, they should not be able to fight against more than three at once.
The golem of the Nostalgia side, taking advantage of its 2x performance, defeats them individually.
They are able to use this kind of strategy because of their superior judgment.
On the other hand, the golem of the MARQUITAS side does not work so well. They were divided and disturbed, and were unable to act in an organized manner. They were being destroyed individually.
"You seem to be doing well so far ......, but what about you, Elena-sama ......?"
Wattes Schletzer looked down from the air and worried about Elena.
Elena was running around the battlefield in all directions.
With her new beloved sword in her hand, she is disturbing the enemy golems. Her figure was the same as that of the former .
"Not yet! Come on, come on, this way!"
Like the wind, she weaves her way between the enemy golems and attacks their knee joints.
The fact that this slows them down so much is due to the fact that they are mass-produced models that don't place much importance on their skeletons.
The golem on the side of MARQUITAS had armor to support its body.
This is similar to the of modern Japanese aircraft.
When in perfect condition, the armor is strong enough to support the body, while at the same time simplifying the structure and reducing weight, but if a part of the armor is damaged, the effect will affect the entire body.
An exterior with a broken knee joint will be unbalanced due to tension from the opposite side.
As a result, friction at the joint increases and movement efficiency decreases by a few tenths of a percent. This may not sound like much, but the broken knee joints also make them less of a threat.
Instantly Elena jumps back. A moment later, a mace slammed into the spot where she had been.
"Is it a new model?"
A appeared in front of Elena. It was the first one she had ever seen.
Unlike the burly battle golem, it was about 170 centimeters tall, with a body line similar to that of a human.
Then, a golem from the Nostalgia party pounced on her.
However, the support golem dodged lightly and slammed its mace into the Nostalgia golem.
The golem receives a blow to the back of its head, causing its head to crumple and rendering it incapable of action.
"That's quite a powerful weapon, isn't it?"
Elena told the Nostalgia golems around her, "I'll deal with this one myself.
I see, that's wise.
"You can speak, can't you? You're not the golem Guillermo Marchitas made, are you?
Yes. I am a support golem. I serve Master Malchitas, but I was created by a people called the Originals.
The Originators?
Naturally, Elena knew what they were called.
"...... This may be a formidable foe.
Elena decided to be cautious.
However, the opponent has a mace. It is powerful, but with Elena's speed, she can dodge it.
The problem was how to damage the opponent without taking damage to herself. That was the problem.
Let's go!
The support golem attacked first. A mace cleave to the side.
Elena dodges it by keeping her stance low. If she jumped, there was no way to escape from the attack while she was in the air.
Elena gets low and aims her sword at the ankle of the support golem.
However, the support golem quickly backed up and dodged the sword strike.
"It's a tough one, isn't it?"
Elena was now using 80 percent of the power Jin had modified for her.
"Then, I'm going to go for it.
She increased the output to 100 percent.
The reason why she was hesitant was because ordinary magi-machines often rattle or overheat when they are used at 100 percent output for a long period of time. This is not the case with Jin.
This was not the case with Jin, but his past experience had made him hesitant to give Elena 100 percent output.
"--!"
Without uttering a sound,...... Elena is an automata, so she has nothing to do with breathing exercises such as kiai or breath blowing,...... but a sword was drawn.
It was halfway into the hilt of the support golem's mace.
Amazing performance. Was it a deus ex machina who created you?
"No, it wasn't."
Despite this conversation, the two creatures' battle continued to intensify.
The support golem is no longer catching Elena's sword, but is parrying it, and Elena, at 100 percent output, has a speed advantage, allowing her to parry the enemy's attacks with ease. Surely you are right, Markitas-sama.
You certainly have the reputation of being an adversary, Mr. Markitas!
"Thank you very much.
The attack and defense accelerate.
Elena with her sword and the support golem with its mace.
Elena attacks with speed and manpower, even if each blow is light.
The support golem sacrifices speed, but is superior in the power of a single blow.
In one corner of the battlefield, an evenly matched battle continues.
