"Old man, were you sure that was the right thing to do?"
Jin, who was watching the exchange between Marikka D and < on Horai Island, asked.
<>> is 100% trustworthy, the answer is no.
"Hmm?"
> to check on them. Unless those two are spies for Oeste 3.
"I see."
Jin agreed with the old man's explanation and decided to wait and see what would happen.

can be reached by a transfer magic circle.
and move to in an instant.
...... It's too quiet.
Too quiet.
The two are not speaking, but are communicating via a built-in communication device.
[...... There's some dust on the floor.
Mmm. This suggests that the room hasn't been cleaned in a hundred years or so.
Assuming the air-conditioning is in working order.
That's true.
The air in <<> is circulated through a filter, so it does not accumulate dust.
I assumed that the same is true here <>, based on the degree of dust accumulation.
Let's move on first.
That's the only way.
Normally, the room with the transfer magic circle would be filled with several golems, but the fact that they were not there, they thought, must mean that something unusual is going on.
Knowledge is useless, since the structures in the base are all different from 1 to 3.
But I thought this was a base specialized in production.
Yes. But it's too quiet for that.
That's for sure.
This land would have been suitable for mining as well.
But the fact that we can't even hear the sound of digging proves that something was going on, he said.
The purpose of this visit is to confirm this .
Let's go to the bottom first.
Oh, yes.

So, the two of them went for the deeper part of the base.
I don't see any golems guarding .......
That's for sure. This is too crazy.
They continue down the corridor and find a fire escape that leads down to the base, where they confirm that the door is locked.
Locked fire escape?
...... The most likely explanation is an intrusion by a foreign enemy, but I didn't see anything that looked like it.
The mystery only deepens.
The two of them went down the fire escape cautiously.
...... Well, the light is still on.
Hmm. But most of them are ethereal luminaries.
No, look at that.
Hmm?
In the direction to which <> points ...... down the stairs, there is one light that is not an <>.
Is that a ......
Is it a warning light?
The warning light of <> is not a blinking red light or a rotating red light.
A bright orange light means it. At least at the base.
The fact that there is a warning light in the basement means that ......
Could it mean that something happened at the ...... mining site?
The first thing that comes to mind is a cave-in, or volcanic gases, but neither is very likely from the technology of <>.
In any case, we would not know for sure until we went a little further, so <><>The two bodies proceeded down the stairs to the end of the warning light.
