Magicraft Meister Part 3

< and <2(dos)> begin to walk around without concealing their magic.

Look at that!

2 saw what 1 pointed at, and saw it, too.

That's ...... for sure!

It's a golem of our type.

A headless, four-armed golem.

It was most certainly one of ours.

But I don't think they're looking for us.

Mm-hmm. They're patrolling.

They haven't spotted us yet.

Something's wrong with ......?　They can't see us from this distance?

The distance between them and us is about 50 meters, clearly visible.

And yet, the golem on the other side seems to be completely oblivious to Uno and Dos.

Are they aware and ignoring them, or are their sensors malfunctioning?

Are the sensors malfunctioning?　No, if they were, they wouldn't be patrolling.

I thought about it, but could not come to any conclusion.

So, first, I decided to speak to it by voice from a distance.

"Are you the golem from ?"

"......"

But there was no response.

Are you deaf?

I can only assume so.

So I try to get a little closer and talk to him.

"You are ......."

But it still doesn't respond.

It doesn't seem to be behaving strangely. ......

Could it be that its visual or auditory sensors are failing?

That wouldn't make sense, would it?

That's true. But isn't there another explanation?

Maybe they can hear us, maybe they can see us, but they're ignoring us.

What for?

I'm told that in their last communication with ......, they declared that they would never communicate with each other again. Isn't that exactly what they're doing?

Mm-hmm. ......

Even so, both 1 (Uno) and 2 (Dos) wondered if they would ignore him so thoroughly.

If we blocked his way, would he react?

He will, but he shouldn't. He might cut off your legs like that golem.

I don't intend to be taken out that easily.

I understand that, but we'll find another way.

So the two of them think of a way to distract the patrolling golem.

How about something to hit it with?　A rock, a branch?

Hmm, that sounds good.

At a safe distance, of course.

Let's give it a try.

So 1 picks up a fallen twig and throws it at the patrolling golem.

And then...

Whoa!

The twig disappeared in front of the patrolling Golem.

No, it did not disappear.

The patrolling golem crushed the twig with such speed that even the visual sensors of 1 (Uno) and 2 (Dos) could not see it clearly.

...... is dangerous!

I agree. I thought it was the same model, but that's just looks. He's better.

We shouldn't be the only ones making decisions here.

I agree. Let's call it in.

With that conclusion, the two of them decide to contact Jonathan.

<>

Yes. <

It's not a voice transmission, so the report took about three seconds to finish.

< directly. The other one is to observe it from a safe distance. Report back to me with your findings.

Copy that.

<, the two units decide to confront the golem patrolled by 2 (doss) and observed by 1 (uno).

Okay, I'll give it a try. Observe.

I'm on it.

2 (doss) then approaches the patrolling golem. 1 (uno) observes from a distance of about 50 meters.

1 (Uno) was watching from a distance of about 50 meters. 2 (doss) slowly approached.

40 meters, 30 meters, 20 meters.

Still no response from the patrol golem.

10 meters, still no response.

5 meters, still no response.

3 meters. .......

Whoa!

2 has suddenly stopped. 2 meters away.

What's going on, 2-dos?

But there's no response from 2 doss.

Mm...... has come to a complete stop.

As Jin and the others guessed, this was the result of being deprived of all the mana necessary for its operation.

Whoa!

And the patrolling golem severed 2's legs.

I could barely see what it had done, but ...... was it a magical blade?

No answer.

Leaving a distance of 50 meters, 1 (Uno) continues to observe.

The patrolling golem leaves 2(dos) motionless and continues to walk slowly.

After the Golem disappears from sight, 1 (Uno) first reports the current situation to .

<

Yes, that's right. I'm going to go check on the stopped 2-dos now.

<<2-dos?　Oh, you mean their mutual designation?

Yes. For the sake of convenience, I'll call it 1.

<

Roger that.

And 1 is approaching 2. .......

This is ......

He became aware of the rapid decrease of energy in his whole body, and finally 1 stopped.
