Until now, Hope has often been the pilot of the <> and has also been away from the <> for its upkeep, maintenance, and security, but now he wants to make the <> self sufficient in such security matters.
That way, when they leave the <>, they can be accompanied by Hope.
"But autopilot is a little different."
Then Reinhardt arrived.
"Jin, I heard you're strengthening security on the Hurricane."
"Yes, but we're still considering what direction we should take.
When Reinhardt heard this, he said,
"You mean because people are careless on the tarmac?"
Reinhardt asked Jin.
"That's what I mean."
"I see. ...... Well, you haven't installed an <> system, have you?"
"Yes, well.
Then isn't that the first thing to do?
Jin nodded at Reinhardt's words.
"Of course it's possible. But there is one more problem.
"What's that?"
"How should I put it ...... well, the unmanned is too big a target, you understand?"
"Oh, that's what you mean ......."
With that analogy, Reinhardt understood what Jin was concerned about.
If you compare it to managing a car, you want to make sure it doesn't get scratched while it's parked.
"Maybe you could cover it with a ward, so that only Jin and related people can unlock it?"
"Yes, that's a good idea.
Jin agreed with Reinhardt's idea.
"And I think there are times when we'd like them to float above us and wait for us. ......"
If the altitude could be set arbitrarily, Jin said, then humans and animals wouldn't be able to touch it.
"And maybe a feature where you can call them with a <> and they'll come to you."
Reinhardt was amused by Jin's line.
"I see! That's Jin! That's an interesting idea.
But all of this could be done with a golem on board that specializes in piloting.
"Then why don't you make them like Lao Jung and Lao Tzu?"
"That's it!"
Reinhardt's advice made Jin fall to his knees, impressed and pleased.
"Let's do it the other way around this time, and let Hope pilot the remotely!
"Oh, that sounds fun!"
* * * *
With that, Jin sets to work to bring this idea to fruition.
The first step is to modify Hope.
"Okay, Hope, I'll modify the Hurricane so that it can be remotely controlled.
"Yes, sir."
"<>"
We decided to start by stopping Hope and slightly modifying its structure.
"The skeleton will be made entirely of Magi material, and the musculature will be upgraded."
The skeleton is a foam structure using Magi-adamantite, and the joint sliding parts are coated with hyperadamantite.
