Yes, that is correct. We know the location of our target, so there's no need to rush. We have enough time.

"Oh, what's going on?"



 The technical golem in charge of the second workshop looked at the five golems brought in and asked the golem that had brought them in.

"I don't know. They stopped working all of a sudden. I need you to repair them and find out why they stopped moving."

"Okay."

 The five golems then left the second workshop, leaving the other five stuck golems behind.

 The next stop was workshop 3.

"Well, they were hardly worn out at all.

"I guess so."

"The damage to the exterior is also slight. It seems there was no real battle.

 In the second workshop, a technical golem was disassembling and repairing the five stuck bodies.



What the hell does this mean?

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



"I don't know."

"It can be repaired. We can repair them, but we can't guess what happened to them.

In a way, we don't have much information.

 The fact that the magic conductor inside has been broken while the exterior is completely undamaged.

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



 In such a case, thinner and weaker parts would be damaged.



 However, all of the five bodies had their thick magic leads broken. And that too, once and for all.

"I can only come to one conclusion: they were cut by engineering magic."

But did you let the enemy get that close?

I agree.



 The status of all five units is recorded and then repairs are made.

 Then the support golem brought new information, which made it possible to make a more accurate guess.

Yes. Perhaps the owner of the airship did .

The village and the people we're looking for don't have that kind of technology.

That's right.

Mm-hmm. I think it's possible that they were cloaked in invisible wards and attacked with engineering magic.

And the owner of the airship is most likely either a Magecraft Meister or a deus ex machina.

 Large airships and advanced technology. No one in the known world possesses both.

 It was not difficult to guess the owner.



If it is one or the other, is it a coincidence?

 And thus, the cause can be traced back.

 The cause is the result of the cause, and therefore the cause can be inferred from the result.

 Of course, there are some things that cannot be determined without a large amount of data, such as events with divergent possibilities, probabilistic events, and events that seem to be only coincidental.
