In Horai Island, Jin was discussing with the old man.
This is because, even if they are going to tackle this case in earnest, it is not possible to deploy all the forces of Horai Island.
The right person in the right place at the right time.
Jin decided that it would be better to deploy the right personnel at the right time.
"As expected, we can't just take over the town with the entire army of Horai Island.
"Right."
Jin began to think about the details of the plan.
Of course, together with the old man and Reiko.
"First of all, we have to rescue the hostages, don't we?
to the location where the hostages are being held and use the to escape. We can escape on the waiting <>, that's possible.
"I see."
<, there is no problem for objects to pass through, so this is a possible operation.
"What about the fact that the residents are being manipulated?"
"Leave it to me."
Reiko came forward.
"In that case, what about that ring on your head ......<>?"
<
"Oh, right."
It would be nice if he came to his senses, but the thought of him going insane or being trapped in madness makes Jin hesitant to take any strong measures.
"I guess we should start by checking the Dominate Ring.
Jin thinks that his earlier idea is still valid.
"An antenna that sends out commands?"
<
"Yes, yes. Because it's very possible."
It is possible that they are wired together, Jin himself thinks.
"That's a good idea if there is an antenna that can send out such a command. Can you find out where that terminal is located?"
"Okay, check it out first."
<
The remaining problem is to dispose of the magic brain.
"Yes. Worst case scenario is to destroy ......."
.
Yes, that's right.
Now a question arises.
"...... Wait a minute. Where is the engineer who made that magic brain?"
"But it must be somewhere, right?"
<
"I see.
Yes, we will.
>
"Yes. <. Not only Machina, but I'll be making a public move as well.
.
The old man then drew up a plan of action based on the previous meetings and the known information.
Now it is time to start the action.
* * * * * *
Erika and Linen, who have received instructions from the old man, go with Eira to the road near the town and look at the town of Hulek from inside the woods.
Someone passes by.
"What's that? He is ......."
"Do you know him?"
"Yes. I'll call him off.
"Yes, I'm on it."
Linen, disguised as a merchant, steps out onto the street in front of Berlich Becker, the agency manager, and the golem.
My name is Linen. I'm Linen. ...... You're going to the town of Hulek?
Yes, I am.
Yes. - I don't think that's a good idea.
Why not?
I'll tell you why, but let's go somewhere else. Please, this way.
Linen tried to lead the two of them and one of them into the woods off the road.
But Berlich Becker and the others did not follow.
They were wary of Linen's sudden appearance.
"Well, I understand that you are wary of me. But, Mr. Becker, there is someone over there that you know.
"What? Cachéa?
No, it's Eira.
"Oh, Ms. Eira. Okay, I believe you for the moment. ...... manager, I think it's safe to trust you. If it comes to it, there is a golem too, so let's go with her.
So the two of us and one of them follow Linen's lead into the woods.
They are reunited with Eira.
"Becker!"
"Eira, are you all right? Where's Katya?
Well, I'll tell you what happened. I'll tell you in order. ...... Erika...
Erica, nice to meet you.
Berlich Becker.
My name is Chow Yong Dathe. I'm the manager of a distributor in the town of Ulaanbaatar.
Eira. <
My name is Linen.
After introducing herself, Erika gives an overview of the case on behalf of the group.
...... and that's it.
"So, ......, they have Katya and Groma?"
Yes.
Yes, they are. But it's good to have Becker here. With Jin's automata, Erika and Linen, and Becker's golem, we should be able to get by, don't you think?
Eira said hopefully.
Erika denied it.
"No, it may not be enough."
"Is that so?"
"Yes, there seems to be a golem for battle over there.
What?
I just caught a glimpse of it a few minutes ago.
"......"
At this point, Chow Yong Dathe's back went slack.
"Uh, uh, wow, what should I do ......?"
Erica saw this and said,
"Mr. Dathe, I think it would be better for you to go back to the town of Urau for now," she advised.
"Well, yes.
"Yes, that's right!
We'll take care of your waitress.
"Well, then, please!"
In the end, Cho Young Dathe returned to the town of Ulaanu.
"He's back. We can talk more about it at ....... Don't you agree?"
Eira knew what Erika was trying to do.
There are a lot of things they don't want the public to know. .......
"I'm impressed, Eira."
<, and Berlich Becker, a descendant of the Jin family.
With these two, Horaijima will be able to show their full strength.
The first signal for the start of the counterattack was about to be raised.
