First, I called Saki, who was studying non-woven fabrics, and showed him the prototype <.
"Oh! I've had < helping me since Aalu left, but she looks good!"
Saki was overjoyed and agreed to test the <>.
"So, what's her name?"
"I was thinking of having Saki name her."
"Okay, okay. How about ......<?"
"Oh, that sounds good."
I thought it would be good as <> since it is related to <> in the Franz kingdom and to <>......<> as Jin.
"<>...... then, you are now enge1."
"Yes, I am Enge1. Please take care of me.
Enju-1, how are you doing?
Enju-1 followed Jin's words and performed a self-check.
"Yes, I have no problem with the operation. I am in very good shape.
Jin nodded.
"Good. Then you will be Saki's assistant for a while. If you find any problems or improvements in the process, please report them to me. Saki, let me know if you have any requests.
"Yes, sir."
"Yes, I understand."
Thus, the road to mass production of <> was paved.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"Well, while Saki is doing the field test, let's get the basics ready.
I'll help.
Reiko, take care of the materials.
"Yes, I'll take care of it."
Since there is no way to change the body, there is no problem even if the field test is not completed.
In the first place, the golem-made base has already been in operation for a long time.
On the same day, Jin and his team prepared 100 bodies.

After dinner, the old man spoke to me.
"Oh, I see."
The time difference from Mitsuho is about 7 hours. The delivery started at 9:00 a.m. and finished at 10:00 a.m. The <> left the town of Seki at 10:30 a.m.
"Well, thank you very much for operating the doppelganger.
<
"What is it? What is it?
"Yes, let me hear it."
<
"Oh, I see."
Deus ex machina is supposed to be a brother and disciple of Jin.
< is stronger than Jin's.
The automata he is currently working on will be loaned out to other countries through Machina.
"Sooner or later, you won't be able to hide it any longer."
.
Jin thought about it. Erza, who was with him, seemed to be thinking about it as well.
"I've been fooling around with a lot of different settings until now. ......"
"Fuso Island is a good candidate.
"That's what I thought too. But it's a little too close."
Jin said it's not a good base for a deus ex machina that no one has ever heard of before.
"Yeah, that's not bad. I wish the ......< headquarters wasn't on the island of Electra."
"Hmm, that's what I'm wondering too."
"I guess so."
I've been thinking about building a mega-float.
"I was thinking of building a mega-float," he says.
When asked how he is securing resources, he is at a loss for an answer.
The old man also gave his opinion.
"Gasmada Island or ......"
Gasmada Island is located in the northernmost part of the Laurentian Continent, west of the Great Isthmus of Pazdekst.
"The longitude is not bad. It's not a bad longitude, and we should be able to get to any country within a reasonable time difference."
<
"Well, that would be good."
<<
If there are any ruins left, we could remodel them and use them as a base of operations, the old man said.
"Oh, that's not a bad idea.
Jin, however, thinks that an isolated island is convenient in many ways.
There are many troublesome things when you live on land.
<
"Oh!"
Jin leaned forward. It looked the most interesting.
"An artificial island......... sounds like a secret base. It can even navigate on its own. ......"
It brought back the romance of the days when I adored anime, tokusatsu (special effects) shows, and manga.
"Brother Jin, you want to build a floating island?"
Erza asked, perhaps sensing Jin's feelings.
"......Yes."
Jin nodded, a little embarrassed.
"But, you know,......
"Why don't you make it?"
"What?"
Erza's unexpected words made Jin puzzled.
"If you look at it as a base, an artificial island is close to ideal. Then, the problem is the construction cost. But that is not a problem at all with the current Horai Island.
Elsa added that if the main structure is made of metal, it can be reused in case of emergency, so it is not a waste at all.
"What do you think, ......, old man?"
Jin felt like he was just doing it for his hobby, even though Erza had told him not to.
<
"I see. ......"
<<
"I guess so."
Jin thinks it should be smaller than <>.
"I think it should be about one kilogram in delivery."
<
The old man estimated that about five 300-meter class battleships would be enough for such a size.
