Magicraft Meister Part 1

"Just the sample I was looking for...

smiled inwardly when he saw the ten people and ten bodies that had been dug out from under the outer wall.

Let's capture them and examine them.

Deciding to do so, opens the spare entrance to the fort, and has the sentry golem in the passageway pulled out.

He then locks the rooms along the way, leaving only one unlocked. The room was, of course, a trap.

The who knows the fortress can take these measures in all but a few rooms, such as the control room.

Of course, Oranje and the others who are holed up in the control room do not know that the <> is doing this on his own.

No one but the <> has the right to give unlimited orders to the <>.

Unaware of this, ten men and ten bodies enter the fort.

"I don't see anyone.

"That's probably why they are so understaffed.

After a brief exchange of whispered comments, the group moved deeper into the fort.

The doors we found were locked, and we could not take the time to try to open them, so we continued onward.

He arrived at one door.

"Oh, this one is unlocked.

However, we don't know who is in there. But we have no choice but to open the door.

"Okay, half of you go ahead. The other five and five of us will investigate this place. Right, you should be the leader of that group for now.

A provisional leader was appointed, and the group split up under the direction of Dofas. Dohas was the group that would open the door, and the cougars in the fifth line (quinta) were the group that would go on ahead.

After confirming that the five cougars and five other cougars had turned the corner of the passage, Dohas let the golem gently open the door.

"...... empty?"

The room was empty. There were no lights on, and it was dimly lit.

"There might be something in there. Let's check it out."

The five of us went inside, two Golems guarding the passageway, two securing the door, and one guarding the room.

"...... but there's nothing here. ......"

"I don't think there are many people who would side with Oranje's guy."

Since the room is literally , there are only a few places to look, and it is only after a minute that it is confirmed that there really is nothing in there.

"Okay, we're done here. Let's go join the five who went ahead of us."

Dofus said and was about to walk out into the corridor when...

"Shock!

"Aah!"

"Gee!"

A shock magic fell, and the five of them fainted. The five golems they brought with them are semi-autonomous, and since their commanders have been silenced, there is nothing they can do.

Furthermore, the doors to the other rooms, which had been locked, opened, revealing ten battle golems.

The five golems of the , which were inferior in performance and outnumbered, were quickly neutralized.

?

Cougar senses with his inhuman hearing that something has happened to Dohas and the others. He also hears the footsteps of the golem chasing after him.

"Run!　They found us!"

He shouted and started to run. The remaining four run after him, though they lag behind for a moment.

But a wall stands in their way.

Most of the inside of the fortress is the same as the inside of the 's body. <.

Some of the passages have walls that can be pushed out from the side walls and ceilings under the control of the <>.

"No, it's a dead end!

Five battle golems are approaching from behind. Just as the cougars are about to give orders to the golems they are leading...

"Aaah!"

"Aaah!"

<, and all five of them stop moving.

This golem, too, was easily captured since there was no one left to command it.

(......) I should pretend to be stunned at this point.

However, only Cougar, the automaton, did not faint. He contacted the old man with his built-in manacam and decided the course of action to be taken from now on.

The five unconscious men were tied to a battle golem, and carried away by the golem.

Cougar opens his eyes and sees that they are being carried to a room downstairs.

All ten men were taken to the lockup on the second basement floor.

(There are also signs of people in the next room. ......)

) Cougar's keen senses sensed the presence of another POW-like person. It might be the one who had been taken prisoner during the previous reconnaissance.

He passed this information on to the old man and then decided to take care of his own problem.

（Well, what are they going to do to us?)

As the cougar continues to watch, a golem approaches the leader, Doohas.

The golem cast a spell: .......

Cougar prepared himself to attack it immediately if it tried to harm him, but the magic the golem used was a .

(This magic is much worse than the Trans-Info magic used by the chief.

However, there is no doubt that he is the first transinfo user that we have ever met outside of Jin and the Jin family.

And the purpose of <> is clear.

It is to know the attacker's strategy, formation, and strength.

At this point, even the old man could not see that the <> was trying hard to analyze his situation.

* * * *

<>.

After the old man's long explanation, Jin shook his head a couple of times as if to shake something off.

"...... I see. Would it be better if I intervene?"

<

"Yes."

Here is the according to Elsa.

"Okay, let's neutralize Fort Crowe as soon as possible."

"Yes?"

It was an unexpected suggestion.

"The Shinobi Force?"

<

Jin thought about this proposal for a moment.

"Hmmm...but we also need to help the prisoners, don't we?

The old man immediately replies.

"Okay, but we have to send in 10 shinobi troops. But aren't ten shinobi troops enough?"

"I see. But be careful of losses, okay?　I don't want to lose you guys by overreacting."

<<

Thus, the old man transferred 25 micro golems, using Regulus 43, or cougar, as a marker.

Cougar sensed the 25 golems that appeared near him.

All 25 are invisible because they have activated . They can only be seen by changing their vision from visible light to the far-ultraviolet region.

Thanks to this, you will be safe even if you encounter a golem.

The normal golem's vision is in the visible light range, or at the most a little bit in the infrared/ultraviolet range, so it will not be seen.

The 25 golems followed the old man's instructions and scattered around the fort.

A cougar looks on.

The cougar, pretending to be stunned, is unable to move and has to stay still for a while longer.
