Chapter 34: 34 - 01-21 Silent talk 1 Automata's drift

After Jin was sent away by a warp gate that no longer accepts him, automata also use the same warp gate to search for him.

After the momentary outburst, the automata were sent to the sea.

The automata lands on the water and sinks. Her body has about the same specific gravity as that of a human being, so she can swim easily, but the material for the warp gate she is carrying on her back for her return is heavy.

Its mass of about 20 kilograms drags the less than 30-kilogram automata to the bottom of the sea.

However, she is not just an automaton. She is a so-called "super automata" that Jin has reassembled without her own weight. Her physical strength is dozens of times greater than that of a human being, and her endurance is almost unlimited. If she moved her slender arms and legs, she could float effortlessly above the sea.

"This is ......."

Looking out over the horizon, she sees an island in the distance. The automata swam toward it. With clothes on and 20 kg of luggage on its back, the speed exceeds 60 knots (more than 100 km/h). (more than 100 km/h), even though she was fully clothed and carrying a 20-kilogram load. There is no other aquatic creature faster than her.

After an hour or so, the automaton arrives at the island. The island is quite large.

"Is this the island where the ...... laboratory is located?　No, I don't think so. ......"

When she landed on the island, she was surprised to find out that it was the island where she had left from, the island where the institute was located. The island she knew was much smaller than the one she had left, because it was a volcanic island.

The island she remembered was a volcanic island, and the mountain in the center of the island was always belching smoke. Now there is no smoke and the mountain is at least 1,000 meters high. It seems to be well over 3,000 meters high. There was even snow on the top of the peak.

"I can only assume that it has been uplifted in the last thousand years."

I muttered in a voice devoid of emotion, and headed in the direction of what I assumed to be the laboratory. The island is covered with sparse forests and grasslands, making it easy to walk around. Since the island is not tropical, it does not appear to have been turned into a jungle.

"There don't seem to be any large animals.

Insects, birds, small mammals and reptiles, and amphibians. Not much has changed from the original inhabitants of the island.

The laboratory was located underground on a plateau in the center of the island. Based on the time it takes to get there, the automata estimate the approximate size of the island today.

"It's more than 100 times larger than it is now. ...... Well, I don't think there's any harm in that."

Roughly the size of Miyakejima Island, originally part of the Izu Shichi-shima group, is now about the size of Tochigi Prefecture.

However, the automata proceeded on its way without paying any particular attention to this. We arrived at the entrance of the institute. It was covered with ivy, but the automata, the original inhabitants, were able to find it quickly. Before her power, the tangled ivy was no more than a weed on the side of the road, and the automata easily opened the door and entered.

"One more time, right?"

Tireless, she rides the warp gate once again, and runs out of control once more.

This time, the automata appeared in the desert.

"Desert, huh? Well, the direction where people are likely to be is ...... that way, isn't it?

Sensing the slightest hint of magic, she walked in that direction. Tireless, she makes it to the town in four days, through scorching days and freezing nights.

"It seems that your father ...... is not here."

There was no mistaking the magic of Jin, who had created her, and she concluded that he was not here.

"Shall we set up this warp gate somewhere and return to the laboratory?

We decided to set up a warp gate in a cave in the middle of a rocky hillside at a considerable distance from the town. The entrance is sealed with rocks to prevent strangers from entering. Furthermore, it is protected by wards.

Well, since it has a function to detect magic, it can be used only by Jin and his related persons (including automata).

"Then, transfer."

And the automata returned to the laboratory.

The third time.

This time it appeared in the middle of the wilderness. It took 7 days to reach the human settlement. Again, a warp gate was set up in the vicinity and the automata returned to the institute.

The fourth time was in a land inhabited by demons. Most of the demons ignored the automata, but some of them attacked us, so we had no choice but to fight them off. Some of them were pseudo-dragons (Siamese dragons). Their leather, feathers, fangs, and bones seemed to be good materials, so I collected all of them, set up a warp gate, and returned to the laboratory. After returning, the materials were sorted and stored so that they could be used at any time.

In this way, the automata went out to search for Jin over and over again, never considering the possibility that he might be dead.

And then, he shifted, not knowing how many times because he did not count each time.

This time it was in the snow. An automata dived into the snow with the weight on its back. The snow was dry and powdery, and there was no response, and no matter how much he moved his arms and legs, he could not seem to escape.

"It can't be helped, can it?

The automaton's body begins to heat up. She melts the snow, keeping it at a level that does not affect the baggage on her back. It took some time because some parts of the warp gate are sensitive to high heat, but she managed to escape from the snow after a whole day.

"Now, where are we?

I climbed up on the rock and looked around. It looks like a very high mountain.

"It looks like there will be less snow as we descend. But which way should I go ......?"

Perhaps the distance is too great to detect any human presence or magic.

"Let's ask them to strengthen the functions in this area next time."

It's a roundabout way of saying that we must first find Jin, since only he can strengthen the functions that are lacking in order to find him.

"Heading south is probably a safe bet."

The season is winter, and we decide that it is better to head south than north, so we follow the ridge with less snow and descend the mountain. Sometimes she fell into a puddle, but each time she heated up to get out, it took her a long time and it took her three days to reach a point where there was less snow.

Now, a 3,000-meter-high mountain rises before her eyes. Looking back, she sees the high mountain she came down from, a 6,000-meter mountain covered with glaciers.

"It's still going to take some time. Let's wait a little longer to find a place to set up the warp gate.

The automaton heads for the 3,000-meter-high mountain. However, there is no need to cross the summit, so they aim for the saddle (col), which is a little lower than the summit.

Even so, there was still more than a meter of snow near the ridge, and over the next two days they completed the second pass over the mountain.

"It looks like the rest will be fine."

He knew from the ridge line at 3000 meters that the rest of the mountain was rocky and less than 2000 meters high. He knew that the rest was less than 2,000 meters of rocky terrain. The automaton was planning to set up a warp gate at the top of the mountain.

If there was no snow, she could reach the summit in half a day.

It was already dark when she reached the summit, but it did not matter to her that she could see in the dark.

The summit was wide and there was a cave that looked like a good place to set up a warp gate.

"That looks like a good place.

An automata approaches the cave. She jumps down. The place where she had been standing was gouged out.

"...... Is it a Hecaton Cale?

A 20 meter tall giant with 100 arms. It climbed up from the opposite side of the slope and suddenly threw a rock at her.

"It's a type of demon that stores magic inside. That's why you couldn't detect it.

The automata calmly analyze their opponents. Many giant demons are incapable of using magic. This is because they consume magic power internally to support and maintain their huge bodies.

Therefore, the amount of magic power leaking outward is so small that I judged that she could not sense it now.

"If I didn't have the baggage on my back, I would have been able to face her head-on, but I guess that's to be expected," she muttered as if giving up.

The automata muttered in resignation and increased the operating rate of the ether converter in her body from about 5 percent to 20 percent.

At the same time, the operating rate of the mana driver was also increased, and the magic power was kneaded at once. And then...

"Mana Explosion!"

He unleashed his most powerful offensive magic. The output was 20 percent.

The impact engulfed the Hecaton Cale's own magical core, creating a huge explosion that instantly obliterated its massive body.

The advantage of this magic is that it can annihilate only those who have magic power. The terrain near the summit is unaffected. The cave is also safe.

"......The defeat is complete. It seems a bit wasteful, but I guess it can't be helped. It's more than that."

It is a bit of a waste to have completely destroyed it without leaving any usable materials, but she had more important things to do.

"......This magic power must be your father's, right?"

She could finally sense Jin's magic power here.

"We have to set up the warp gate quickly.

An automata sets up a warp gate in the cave of the Hecaton Cale, which has just been defeated.

The bones of wood bears, which were probably the Hecaton Cale's prey, are scattered around the cave, so they are thrown into the bottom of the valley.

We carefully assembled the warp gate and checked its operation. Once completed, he returns to the laboratory with it, and then comes back again immediately. This is all for Jin's sake. In case something malfunctions while bringing Jin back to the laboratory, the automata will destroy itself.

By the time everything was completed, it was dawn. The automaton hurries down the mountain. The automaton heads for the other side of the low mountain.

Beyond the low mountain, a small village can be seen. When the automaton spots Jin, the person she has been longing to meet, standing by the fence at the edge of the village, she gives 100 percent output.

It gave her a speed close to the speed of sound, moving her instantly over a distance of more than 100 meters. And then, in front of the automaton...

"Father!"

Jin, the father (creator) she had spent half a year searching for, was standing there with a stunned look on his face.
