 After proceeding through the maintenance corridor, Makina and his group found themselves in front of a red door.

The power room is probably just ahead.

Would you like me to open it?

Ray, please.

 Squire Rey set about unlocking the door.

 Fortunately, it was not a complicated locking mechanism, but rather a method of turning two dials numbered from 0 to 9 to a given number.

 This means that at most 10 times 10, i.e., 100 attempts were needed to open the lock.

 There was no penalty for repeated wrong numbers, and the 23rd time ......<<22>> was the correct number! The door was opened at .......

"Oh?"



 The inside of the room was dimly lit, unlike before.

 The walls and ceilings were embedded with <>, which emitted a faint light.



 And the power room, illuminated by the dim light, was quite deserted.

 Adding more light with <>, the whole room comes into view.



"This is ...... terrible."

 The cables used to send magic power to the various departments, their ends sticking out here and there.

 However, the magi-machines ......<> and <> for connecting them do not exist.

 To be precise, there were about three cables connected to them.

 But that was nothing more than a stone's throw. It would have to be a hundred times more than that to handle the cable ends in this room.

"You've built it, but you can't move it because you don't have enough energy ......, or it's not finished yet ......."

"Let's take a look around."

"I agree."

 Accompanied by Squire Rey, Makina decided to take a look around the power room.

"We are short of materials and manpower. On top of that, the <> must have stopped the construction.



 Someone said, and most of us agreed.

 However, Zion and Arnold are twisting their heads.



"Arnold, do you have any questions?

 Jin asked and Arnold began to think and explain.

"Yes. I've seen the inside of the mobile base so far, and I felt something strange.

"A strange feeling?"

"Yeah, yeah. That's ......."

 Zion opened his mouth at this point.

"There is no trace of the person who built ......<. Isn't that right?"

"Yes, Chancellor Zion."

"What do you mean?"

 A question came from someone who did not understand the meaning of the doubts felt by Zion and Arnold.

 Jin answered.

"Someone said it earlier, didn't they? <
That's true.

"That's right. I mean, what happened to the engineers who were supposed to be building it?

"Ah..."

 Jin said to him, and he seemed to have noticed.



"In other words, it is strange that there is not a single body, isn't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


"Yes, indeed.

"If they had a golem working on them, there should have been a golem left inside. I don't see any golem.

You're right.

 At this point, it seems that everyone finally understands the anomaly inside the mobile base.

There are two reasons that come to mind immediately.

Jin-dono, what are they?

"......1 is that the construction of this mobile base must have been stopped and abandoned before the Aether Stampede."

"I see."

"The other is that there may have been beings who cleaned up the inside of this mobile base after the Aether Stampede.

You can certainly say that.

 The conference room is buzzing.

"But I think the latter is unlikely.



 Now Arnold said.

"I don't understand the motive or purpose of the <>. <

"Is there any possibility that any of the equipment or materials inside could have been taken out?"

"There were no traces of any removal at all. No one would go to the trouble of removing all traces of the equipment and materials, unless they were trying to commit the perfect crime.

 Arnold's explanation convinced everyone, but at the same time left them scratching their heads at the .



"......1 is just one hypothesis..."

 Zion broke the silence and opened his mouth.

"As I recall, there were about 25 million tons of iron resources of unknown use, right?"

"Yes."

"And the we found this time is about 1.6 to 1.7 million tons."

"Oh, ......!"

Yes, and the difference is still missing.

That's for sure.

"Isn't it also possible that it is being used to make some kind of weapon somewhere else?"



 The members of the change color a little at this hypothesis of Zion's. "If that's the case, then why are they still missing?

"If that is the case, then there is still an unknown threat somewhere in the world.

"We must find the negative legacy ...... and deal with it."

"But we don't even know where to look."



 Here, Zion adds a few more words.

"It's just a hypothesis, so please don't be more impatient than you have to be."

"That's true," said Zion.

"But we want to continue the investigation. ......



 Some said, "That's because, first of all, it's a good idea.

"Well, the only way to do that is to start by being careful in each country.

"I guess so."

 We don't know where it is, or even if it exists in the first place.

 There was too little evidence to take concrete action.

"Now we just have to hope that there are some clues in that mobile base.

"Yes, that's right."

 In reality, there were a few more twists and turns, but this was the general conclusion.
