Magicraft Meister Part 1

May 27. The sky of Horai Island was cloudy.

At 9:00 a.m., Jin and Erza were standing in the spaceport behind the institute.

.

In short, the recreational facilities, the plant factory, and the pantry have not been installed yet.

Therefore, there are no humans in the crew this time.

The 200 space golems named < by Jin will be aboard.

The Cosmos series is the same size as Sky and Lando, and made of 64 light silver. Its color is golden. Equipped with a force field generator, they can move freely in space. ......

He is also in charge of repairs, and can use engineering magic as well as a craftsman (smith).

The captain of the ship is <. The captain is , and the ship is controlled by , the brain of magic.

<

"Yes, sir."

Without hesitation, Jin named the spaceship.

"My flagship is named ."

Hearing this, Reiko, who was standing diagonally behind Jin, smiled softly.

<> was written in gold letters on the side of the ship.

"All right, let's go!"

Rocket thrusts would be extremely dangerous if you were nearby, but if you use the force field generator, there is almost no effect on the surroundings.

Adriana begins to ascend at a speed that would generate a gentle breeze.

When a 300-meter-diameter giant flies at ultra-high speed, a storm blows around it.

At first, the speed of the is about the speed of walking, and as it ascends, the speed is gradually increased to minimize the impact on the surroundings.

At an altitude of over 200 meters, the speed reaches about 100 kilometers per hour.

plunges into the clouds above Horai Island. Only there is a hole in the clouds, and a blue sky appears.

"Okay, we'll track it back to the lab.

"Hmm..."

Jin, Erza, and Reiko went to the control room in the institute. They track on the large monitor there.

<

The old man reports. The image is from the Watcher.

<

The speed had increased to about 1 kilometer per second.

Adriana is getting smaller by the minute.

.

The old man's voice was not the voice of the old man, but the voice of the great saint.

<.

One of the multi-faceted magic screens projected a view of outer space. This is the image from <>.

, orbiting at a radius of about 30,000 kilometers, is now going 200 kilometers per second.

<

Since she is using the force field generator , she is able to draw a circular orbit regardless of the gravity of Ars.

< are changing every moment.

As we entered the night side, we could not see any lights on the land, unlike on the Earth.

Fifteen minutes passed, and <> returned to the sky far above Horai Island.

<

<

Yes, it was planned to orbit the moon on this test flight.

has increased her speed even more.

<300 kilometers per second, that's the upper limit.

<

The distance to the moon was estimated to be 380,000 kilometers. At the current speed, it would take about 32 minutes.

During this time, the old man and the Great Sage were planning to conduct various experiments.

The transmission of information is an important factor.

The old man reduced the output of his manacam to half the normal level and sent a message to <>.

<>. Sensitivity is good.

There seems to be no problem at all at a distance of about 50,000 km.

After a short time, the communication is sent again.

<>. Sensitivity is good.

The answer is the same as before. It is about 100,000 km.

I used the expression <> because it is not yet a convergent communication.

And 200,000 km.

<>. The sensitivity is still good enough.

"Oh, excellent."

"Brother Jin, is it because it's unobstructed?"

Erza, who had been silent until now, opened her mouth. She was overwhelmed by the vastness of the universe and the success of <>.

"Yes, that's possible. Maybe there is a lot of noise on the ground.

Jin guessed that it might be the difference between outer space, where there is only natural magic ...... and pure free magic element (ether), compared to the surface, where there are many natural sources of magic represented by magic crystals (magi crystals).

<

In this way, it seems that the output we were normally using was quite excessive.

We can improve our routine by feeding back such experimental data.

The communication was working well even at 380,000 km.

However, the distance between the moon and Ars, 380,000 km, is much closer than the distance between the sun Celan and the planet Ars, 150 million km. The distance between the moon and Ars is 380,000 km, which is far closer than the 150 million km between the sun Serran and the planet Ars.

The distance between the moon and the planet Hale, which seems to be on the other side of the sun, is 300 million kilometers, which would take less than two days at the current maximum speed of Adriana, 300 kilometers per second. At the current maximum speed of of 300 km per second, it would take less than one or two days to reach the planet.

"Well, let's start by surveying the moon."

Jin brought his thoughts back to reality.

From the images sent to him, there were no craters, unlike those on the Earth's Moon.

"Is there no air ......?"

I guess we won't know that much until we get closer.

For now, the priority is to test <>.

<

It is very important to know if it is useful as an escape device in case of emergency.

<>

<

<<3......2......1...... 0!

<>. We have just received the sample magi crystals from <>.

"Oh, it worked!"

It was good news that the material could be sent over a distance of 380,000 kilometers. And then more news came in.

<

It means that the mana consumption was at most twice as much as that of the transfer on Ars.

"Hmmm, assuming that a transfer gate (warp gate) connects two different points with a kind of subspace tunnel, distance may not mean much in that subspace. ......"

Jin made a hypothesis like this.

to send the magi crystal to you. Please prepare to receive it.

<

I say "prepare to receive" only to have the crew of the brace themselves.

< into the transporter,

<<3......2......1...... 0!

>> Instantaneously, a message is sent.

<

The transporter test was a great success. At least, the transporter, warp gate, and communication between the moon and Ars are now working without any problems.

"Come to think of it, there is no time lag either. What the heck is a free-magic wave (ether) ......?"

Even light takes 1.27 seconds to travel this distance, yet no delay is felt.

Jin thought that there is still insufficient data to say anything about this.

Nevertheless, the absence of time delay is rather welcome.

was about to approach the far side of the moon.
