As I was vaguely thinking about countermeasures against Midea, the party had completely started.

'Ryouta, everyone's awake for the quicksilver. They want a shift or instructions, okay?

　No, I was so busy thinking I missed the transmission. But scouting is not the place for those two. I'd stand by if I could, but Dominic-san is so motivated...

"This is Ryota. Anya, how much progress have you made in driving your small motorcycle?
'You can run rough terrain at full speed now, huh?　I love bikes, I'm not much of a horse person, but the machines do what I want them to do. I'd love to ride a mid-size bike, but I don't have any wheels... can I modify it?

"Absolutely not!　You know we've already modified the small KX-85 II, right?　Did you mess with the steering wheel and the seat?　I was surprised that my riding position was leaning so far forward!

　I was actually aware of the modifications.
　However, I couldn't help but notice the dialect as he tried to mess with my car as well.

''Oh, that one is adjustable and can be put back immediately so I had better material from this world. Please let me go!

　Normally, would an otherworldly person modify a motorcycle or something?　Anya's skills are helpful, but the problem with mechanical systems is that she wants to fiddle with them immediately. Well, it seems that she's had a lot of fun with it, so she's skilled enough to give a hasty order.

"If the performance is acceptable, that can wait. Anya, I want you to attach an extra fuel tank and deliver a letter to Berta's army. We'll be out of Windowflower's nav range, but can we get there on a map?

"All you have to do is go straight north and you'll always reach Berta.　You'd have to be terribly stupid not to have a compass.

　That too. Now it was a fence at the border, an evenly spaced watchtower.

"Well, I need you to bring me a drawing of a fishing boat. "And, depending on circumstances, a bandit army may head for Berta. "and have Dominic write down a warning and an identity document to say that the bandits may head for Berta.

'Aye, we'll leave when Dominic finishes writing. Do you want me to come back after I deliver it?

There you go. I may be moving from one location to another, but let me know when you're in range and we can talk about it when things settle down, okay?

'Window flower, is there a route to the rock salt resistance that will keep the bandits out of your blind spot?　If the rebel army is in complete disarray, I'll ask Midian to give them a message. The Alpes are supposed to arrive there as a garrison. If the chain of command is destroyed, I think the cavalry can get rid of them on its own.

The base is in a hollow, so the blind spot route is easy to follow. It's impossible to navigate beyond the communication range, but it's impossible to track the bandits. I'll take a drone to check it out.

　The message will be clear, and we'll be able to get Dominic to write a letter to you. The King of the Alps and Count Sela have sent us personally to accompany them. We're going to build a fire in our base as well.

　We'll use Simonov's incendiary bombs to set them on fire from a safe distance. We can't counter the 4,000 bandits with sniper fire, but supplies piled up at a distance can be set on fire without being noticed. Although not perfect, Simonov is also able to suppress the sound and light with his imprint.

　The fire has caused chaos and loss of supplies, and most of the commanders in charge of putting it all together are acute alcoholics. It's impossible to rebuild in the first place. In this situation, the cavalry attacked. I think the bandits will immediately run away due to morale collapse. If that happens, all you have to do is chase them down. And even if they don't run away, you'll only have to feed them.

　It won't all go as planned, but we've successfully found the minimum requirements for a base and supply line. All that's left is to look at the results of the harassment and call in the Alp army for a quick resolution, or inform Aigis's operations center and shut it down by destroying the logistics. You can choose either.

'Midia, depending on the results, I'll have you go to the Rock Salt Antique or Aigis's Leeon, depending on the results, but do you think you'll be able to move and install the additional fuel tanks alone?

'Err, 'Before we leave, Anya, I'd like an extra tank for the mid-sized bike too! "Oh, I'll take care of it." ... "It'll be fine. We'll know where we are, we'll know how to use the Renzatic Compass, and we'll have some things to mark the map to make sure we get there, okay?

　I asked Anya to do it.
　We'll call it a team effort, but in the future, you will learn about the machine.

Well let's wait for the ceremony to be over first. How many down?

I'm in!　My money's on all of them!　If we win, I'll be Ryota's hug pillow, and if we lose, I'll be Ryota's hug pillow.

　No, she has to do something about it soon.

　Simon. I don't think it's fair to say that you're not this far removed from your parents, do you?

I wouldn't bet on it. I'm all of them.

　Midia hastily changed the subject as she started to think of other bets. During long periods of surveillance and sniping, I don't go to the bathroom equipped with a disposable diaper. So I'm forced to fixate on that system of topics, such as [No matter how much the non-steamy type is, it's still hard for me to quicksilver].

　I'm sorry, Midia.
　I'm going to bust that illusion (fuzzy)!!!


At last the sacrifices were made and the cup was exchanged.

This is Ryota. All of them have collapsed and are being cared for, but three people have already died. What's your final estimate of the damage in the video, Madoha?

　They're a**h*les.
　They all chugged and collapsed.
　None of them vomited right away because they were all so proud of each other.

It's almost no good. They think it's poison and make you throw up, but the vomit will go into your windpipe and you'll probably suffocate. Lying on your back is a sure thing, and the same goes for the prone position, unless your face is on the side. Those whose breathing centers are paralyzed are already too late.''

'Window flowers. It's too much of a quandary and I'm feeling guilty, is there anyone who might be able to help?''
''I see you have a healer who uses detoxification to improve liver function, which may save your life.

　There is only one prospect. Loosen his clothes and lay him down on his side to maintain his recovery position. And stay by his side the whole time to keep his airway clear. Then watch out for dropping body temperature. That's first aid for acute alcohol poisoning, okay?

　The operation is working, but I'm dying to tell you.

　At this rate, we'll have left nearly 20 people dead of poisoning or crippled. This is bad..........If things are exposed, even if we are dealing with bandits, we will have two disastrous names.

''Window flower, tell everyone that this operation is a very dangerous method and that it's top secret, so don't tell anyone else. Also, I don't think we need to be on standby, I'm going back to the armored car. As soon as you're done investigating the route of the message, I'll ask you to watch the bandits instead.

　As the commotion began, I cautiously backed up to the armored car.

　We arrived at the armored car parking area without being noticed. It's safe to come here, I datalink the window flowers and goggles first.

　Looking at the footage, the bandits were in chaos in this short amount of time. The battle for the next leader of the bandits and the battle for the next leader. The rest of the group suspects the still-breathing leader of the group of suspected poisoning, but his condition is crippled and can't be blamed, etc. But the one who could be the leader of the group is dead or unconscious.

That's good news for the plan. Midea, please give the order. At this rate we can kick the shit out of them with just the cavalry. If the chaos looks like it's going to be cleared up, we're going to harass them even more and claw them up.

'Yes. But you don't have to bypass this one, do you?　We don't even have a lookout, okay?
No cutting corners. It's a safety issue. Be very careful in this neighborhood.

　Well, according to the plan, I'm burning down with Simonov's incendiary bombs, but right now I can't anticipate the actions of the bandits if I scratch around any more.

　I was unsure of the execution for that reason, but Dominic-san came next to me and looked at me with a face that said [Give me something to work with].......

'Mr Dominic, could you be an observer?　We will now perform a long range ignition technique for the supplies. I forced it to be long range, so the sparks are small, and if you look into this magic tool, the area around the sparks looks large. So can you tell me the results?

Yes!　Leave it to me!

　I'm not sure if I need to burn them now, but I'm not sure if Dominique's expectations were met. I'll have to burn the troops anyway, and I'm not sure I'll still be able to do that...

　This time, the incendiary bombs were developed locally by Manya. However, it is different from the usual ones in that it is an impact and ignition type. If it is about the size of a wooden box, it penetrates the outer frame, and the gel-like fuel separates from the warhead which was crushed by the outer frame, and it ignites. Since it's not a grenade, the fuel from the warhead is hardly scattered.

　Still, it's an oil-based incendiary bullet, formulated by Manya, and it does its job well. In tests, the fire is small, but the combustion temperature averages 1100 degrees Celsius, and the burn time is excellent at about 1 minute. It was enough to ignite a bonfire. Some materials may not be combustible, but a box should be combustible.

　Accuracy is not so good because it's 2km away, but it doesn't matter where the goods are piled up. It's a good distance in the woods, but I'm a little worried about the sound of the bullets landing.

　

　Shots fired 2km away in the forest, further hidden by bushes. There is little sound or light in the bandit's stronghold. A few birds flew away, but the bandits were in confusion and no one noticed.

'Ryota-dono. The second box from the bottom and the third from the right was hit. What's in it ... probably an arrow ... smoke is beginning to rise from the hole, I'm seeing a firelight in the box.

　It's a cheap wooden box with a lot of gaps, and it seems to get a lot of air in there. However, I was surprised to find that Dominic's eyes were unexpectedly good.

　The fire is dimly lit at the back of the supplies, two kilometers away in a crate.
　Those binoculars, the magnification setting now is about 4x....
