Those were the words of the masked man #600012. After he said these words, he collapsed to the floor.
"Ah!"
Nidouble reached out his hand, but it was too late, and the masked 600012 hit the floor and remained motionless.

"...... has run out of power?"
The voice of the other 600012, looking down at the masked figure, is also weak. Perhaps it is a reaction to the use of powerful magic that is too much for his aging body in this land with its low concentration of free magic element (ether).
It may be the difference between

After saying these words, the 600012 fell silent. He fell slowly to his knees on the floor.
"Oh, me too! Reiko, help me!"

Reiko looked at the two 600012s calmly.
"Yes."
The two then carry the two bodies out of the <

Nidouble examined the two bodies briefly and noticed something surprising.
"...... Huh?"
Surprisingly, the control cores of the two bodies were located in their heads. This must be a unique design policy.

Reiko and other Golem automata of the Adriana family are placed in the chest for safety reasons.
First, let's start with the more deteriorated one, the masked one No. 600012.
"......As I thought, the control core (control core) is quite damaged."

It is in such a state that one would think that it must be about 1,500 years old.
It seems that the original control core (control core) was not renewed for some reason, although maintenance and repairs may have been carried out during that time.
"I don't know what ......<

Jin thought, "Maybe we can never truly understand them because they are so fundamentally different from us as living creatures.
"...... Jin-dono, leave us alone ...... now."
The one Jin double met, number 600012, said in a faltering voice.

"I've already done my job ....... There is no ...... point in prolonging your life any longer. Let me go to sleep. ....... One last thing. We have ......8 people in our basement. Please ...... them. If ...... we stop, this facility will collapse. ....... We don't have much time. ...... hurry."
"What?
That's all he said, and the magic response from the 600012 ceased.

"......Are you kidding me? You've got to be kidding me! Why do you have to put such security measures in place? Oh my God, ......!"
Nidaburu hurried to wake up Belial, who was lying in the next room.
"Ugh, ugh ......"

Belial jumped up. He seems to have no lasting effects.

Jin complained in front of the magic screen.
"Why do you want to disable the facility so easily!"

It was like throwing away a treasure trove of valuable information as if it were a toy that was no longer needed. Jin couldn't think of anything else.
"I agree. My Lord, we have eight men underground. Send Lando and his men to rescue them. In the meantime, just get them to the Shinkai."

<<"Yes, sir.
At Jin's order, the old man prepares to send 10 units of Lando 90 to 99 by transporter.
He sends them in only after he has found eight of them, so that they do not run into Jin double and his group.

Jin also decides to leave the operation of the Jin double to the old man. He would be able to react faster in case of an emergency.
"Well, I guess we have done what we can do.
In front of the magic screen, Jin let out a small sigh.

At this point, Jin remembered that he had a big concern.
"I thought it was me, <

Therefore, Jin double's control core does not receive any information.
If it had been Jin himself, it would have been different. This may be a big miscalculation.

"Ah, but..."
The shield case not only insulates the core from magic power, but also absorbs it by using the MagiRecorder.
"I wonder if you can find some information about the magic recording stone (MagiRecorder).

However, there is one problem. Since the MagiRecorder itself does not have a function to organize information, the more information there is, the longer it takes to read it and analyze its contents.
Simple magic is easy to read, but not so with a huge amount of data.
To use an analogy, it is like recording digital data in analog. It would be similar to recording data on cassette tapes in old PCs (or microcomputers, as 8-bit microcomputers were called in the early days).

Moreover, a huge amount of data was stored on these tapes in random order and in no particular order, and in no particular order at all.
"When the double comes back, I'll ask you to analyze it.

"Anyway, Alshell must be in this underground facility.
I don't know how long it will take for the collapse to begin, but Nidouble and Reiko have a

However, they have not yet found Archel, the objective of this trip.
Nidaburu gave the immediate target to Belial, who was not keeping up with the situation.
At the mention of his sister's name, Belialus came to his senses.

He pointed at the water tank ...... behind him.
"Ugh......"

"Ugh......"
There were five bodies of Archelle floating there, not moving at all, but they were beginning to crumble, probably because the mechanism to maintain them had stopped.
They seemed to be reduced to mere lumps of flesh. Belialus turned away.

"Jin-dono, what the hell is Archelle ...... doing ......?"
Nidaburu offers words of encouragement to Belialus, whose shoulders slump.
"Don't give up too soon. After all, this is a lifeless imitation. The original Archel must be in the basement.

Jin thinks to himself, "It's a good thing I heard that from 600012 earlier.
Yes, that's right.
Let's go look around.

"Yes, sir!"
Thus, Nidouble and Belial decided to go around the underground facility.
"Reiko, use the Magi Detector to search for them.

If the demons have high magic power, they should be able to find it.
There's a signal two floors down.
Okay, let's hurry.

The group ran back down the passageway to find the stairs leading to the basement.
They saw several golems, but all of them had stopped.
"I think there was a staircase along the way," he said.

And when he found them, he ran down them, calling out his sister's name in a loud voice.
"Alchelou!"
Nidouble and Reiko followed.

Then they went to the floor that seemed to be the lowest level.
Here, Reiko, who uses the Magi Detector, takes the lead.
There is someone ahead.

Al-shell?
"Probably."
Belialus ran out without hearing Reiko's words. They reach a room.

"Is this ......?"
The room is what you might call an "infirmary.
Beds are lined up, and a human is lying on one of them. They are not homunculi.

There are eight of them. All of them have been treated, but they are badly injured. They seem to be in a deep sleep, perhaps for treatment.
Jin did not recognize them, nor did Reiko or the old man.
Standing among the eight lying there was a golem, apparently in charge of taking care of them. It seemed to have the role of taking care of them.

But then, there was only one small figure walking around. He spotted Jin and the others and looked surprised.
"...... Oh, brother?"
"Alshell! Is that you?

The brother and sister who had finally found each other embraced each other tightly.
