 At this point the old man asked Marikka a question.

"Yes, please.

 They may still be lying dormant somewhere in the world, and you may not be able to unearth them and move them without knowing it, the old man said.

"I'm sorry to say that < didn't know that either."

  and the like cannot be stopped except perhaps by the forces of Horai Island. It would be too dangerous if they were to go out of control.

 But what we don't know is what we can do. The old man decided to instruct the fifth column (quintas) scattered all over the area to keep this point in mind as well.

"There was one more detail that you should not miss.

 Marikka began to explain further.

"It seems that there is someone who was in charge of those ruins.

 Jin could not hide his surprise.

"What? I didn't see anyone. You checked with your peepers, didn't you?

 But there seemed to be a good reason for this as well.

"So, it seems that this person is < to you.

 According to <, it is highly likely that the mysterious administrator lives outside and comes by from time to time to check on things.

 The cycle is unknown...is it every other day, every other year, every 10 years, etc. .......

 Certainly, too, the interior ...... especially the first level was clean. It may be because of the occasional maintenance. The tunnels that had been trashed were probably considered obsolete and no longer subjected to maintenance.

Wait a minute. If that is the case, it might be dangerous to continue exploring those ruins, right?

 The old man agreed with Jin.

"Right!"

 Jin stood up and called out to Reiko. The priority now was to protect the safety of Hannah and the others, even if it meant canceling the meeting.

"Reiko, let's go get Hannah and the others!"

"Yes, Father."

 And to the old man.

The old man, get Conlon 3 on the transporter and send him back to the Nordic Federation. We're running out of time.

<
"All right, let's go."

 Jin then said a few words to Erza, and they boarded the Conlon 3 and flew to the Nord Federation. Of course, Zion and Marikka were with him.

 Then, Jin joined Hanna, Saki, Goose and others in the Nord Federation and explained the situation.

"...... I knew it was the remains of the invasion group."

"Oh, yes. I'm so relieved that we made it in time."

 It was not possible for the administrator to come back and attack Hanna and the others when Jin was not ...... around in time.

 Now they were all outside the ruins listening to the report from Jin.

"Hmmm, I see. If that's the case, it might be dangerous to stay here any longer.

"I guess so..."

"Well, I guess I'm satisfied for the most part."

 Both Hannah and Goose seemed satisfied with their visit.

"Well, let's go home," Jin said.

 Jin said, "Well, let's go home," and there was no opposition.

"Yes.

 So Jin returned to Horai Island with Hannah, Saki, Goose, Craftsman (Smith)1, Nurse Alpha, and Lando's group.

 The Reconaus-Tonelius brothers were briefed by Zion and Maricka. < seems to have been well concealed.

 The two of them also said,

"Well, from what Jin-sama told us, it seems dangerous to stay with them, so we're going to leave too.

 They obeyed him.

 Marikka, however, has decided to have a golem sent from <> to watch over them.

 The only reason why she is going all the way from Onogoro Island is because she has decided that if the administrator of this place comes back, it would be best to deal with him using <> technology as much as possible.

 Maricka only told this to Zion, but did not tell the brothers Reconaus and Tonellius. Of course, I will explain this to Jin later.

 The ruins were abandoned.

 However, because it is too good to let it fade away, a control automaton makes a << patrol>> once every 10 years.

 Yes, <>.

 There are three abandoned ruins in total, one of which was recently discovered in the , but the other two have yet to be discovered by anyone.

 One of the two was in the former Leonard Kingdom, on the coastline at its northern end.

 The remains were still alive. Or rather, usable weapons remained.

 What remained was what Jin would have called a .

 However, it was not a human passenger, but a golem with a control core.

 Because it was man-made, it could not be indestructible and required periodic maintenance.

 And this is carried out by the automata (automata) I mentioned earlier.

 Of course, there is more than one automata. Of course, there is not only one automaton, because then there would be no one to maintain them.



 Therefore, there are ten automata. And every one of them has the power to protect itself.
