Waiting in the Izluks system was very boring.

First, a request for repair of a ship using Black Lotus was issued as a nomination request via the Mercenary Guild, separately from the existing request.

The two small ships docks installed in Black Lotus are state-of-the-art, high-performance ones manufactured by Space Dwelling, and are more capable of repairing smaller ships than the Imperial Space Force's front base facilities. Is high.

In addition, it has two skilled professional engineers and a large number of maintenance bots, and as a member of the Imperial Space Force who wants to quickly recover its strength, he wanted to use it even with payment.

The materials used for repairs are owned by the Imperial Space Force, and the commission is 100,000 energy per day. The main job is the mechanic sisters, so 30% of the commission-if you say that you want to give 30,000 energy per day to your sisters, they both glowed their eyes and accepted the request. If you think that the daily salary per person is 1.5 million yen in Japanese yen conversion, you can understand that it jumps.

Well, that's why Black Lotus has become a temporary repair base so that it does not block the dock of the outpost, and naturally it can not be closed such a dock of Black Lotus, so Krishna without damage to the aircraft is also in Black Lotus Can't land on outpost.

In other words, we can't get off the boat, we are anchored in the space around the safe outpost, and we are waiting in a canned state. The pirates are about to go hunting, but the pirates do not appear in the Izlukes system, which has only the Imperial Space Force outpost, and they have no spare time.

If you do not have time to spare, you will have to do something with the three people on the ship to kill time. Watching Holo videos, competitive games using tablet devices, and, well, well ... Just to say that the bed cleaning function and bathroom use frequency have increased.

Well, not only the innocent content, but also the bouncy mercenary in connection with the bouncing mercenary, I did it in a mock battle using the actual machine, but let's leave it for the time being.

About four days later, Krishna arrived.

"Isn't it quite flashy, right? 』

"I'm not out of my hands. I just sought a little training because I came from the other side."

Behind the cockpit's main monitor, Major Serena was smiling with some fun.

The mock battle was licensed by the Imperial Space Force, so not only mercenaries but also Imperial Space Force soldiers watched a lot.

Outposts have little entertainment. It seems that the mock battle between mercenaries using actual machines was very interesting for military personnel. Eventually, in my mock battle between Krishna and five silver-ranked mercenaries, I won and won't bet! I was told. I'm bad.

Well, even though he won the victory, it was still taken until the shield was broken and the armor was damaged. The last one was killed by a Kamikaze Attack.

I think it's a nice fight, but as a mercenary I wonder if it's a suicide bomber Kamikaze Attack. So even if you defeat the enemy, it does not become one energy. Jeez.

"So what? For what?"

"I can't do it. Can I not put in communication if there is no use? 』

"That's not the case, but I don't want to drink it.

"Cum ... Can you see this anyway? 』

Major Selena sends in what seems to be a video file while twitching her cheeks. After checking if any strange data is entrapped, open the video file, and there you will find a brilliant pulsar, a large amount of crystal creatures, and a huge crystal like a huge igagli compared to crystal creatures Was reflected.

"Cover, stunning mother crystal"

"... Do you know? 』

Major Serena listens in a mysterious voice. Ukatsu! I wanted to beat my imprudent self.

"Well, I'm a big mom because I see it."

"Speaking of which, what did the Pulsar system say?"

"ぴ ゅ ~, hey ~~ ♪"

"Because a bad whistle is good, talk about everything you know. This is an order

"Hey ..."

Major Serena stares at her with her eyes set and orders with a scary voice that seems to leak urine.

"I feel like I've talked a bit before, but do you remember so much?"

"Do you still know about crystal creatures? Please spit obediently. I won't reveal the source of the information, even if it's unknown. "

"..."

I meditate on Serena's remark for a while. To be honest, I don't want to be locked-on not only to the Imperial Army but also to Major Serena himself, "I don't know the identity but I have the knowledge I can use." I'm already too late, but I want to minimize the damage.

Fortunately, whether it's true or not, Major Serena gives me some care if I don't reveal that I'm the source. Major Serena knows that me and Krishna, and Black Lotus rampage up in the empire, would be awkward, and it's better to maintain and use the status quo rather than worse off the relationship You might think.

"... I'm going to rampage if I try to force me or my crew to do something, and I'll flee the empire no matter what I do."

"Are you going to threaten me? 』

"I just want to protect myself. And that's not all, because my video folder will ignite. I'll post a healing video of cute Serena-chan on the various video sites with titles. "

"Ok, I got it. I won't reveal the source, and I'll try to find it, and I'll do my best. So delete the video. '

"I promise not to use it for bargaining in the future."

I don't say to erase it. There is no way to prove it. And I'm not going to let go of revenge in case of an emergency.

"Well ... well, negotiations are up. Wash and talk about what you know. '

"OK"

I've talked about everything I know about the main character of the crystal creature that lives in the Pulsar system-the mother crystal. Basically, the mother crystal itself does not have the ability to move, and the only means of attack is to fire countless small crystal creatures. The released small crystal creatures are attacked by light attacks equivalent to class 1 laser weapons and rush attacks. Because they have no defense equivalent to shield technology, live and explosive weapons are more effective than optical weapons. Of course, optical weapons are also effective enough with a slight decrease in power.

Worse than that is the herd of guardian crystals that protect the mother crystal, which is much more powerful than a medium-sized crystal creature. It is very troublesome because it has excellent short-range shooting capabilities and can also rush without hesitation.

However, the Guardian Crystal's firing range is short, so you only need to cut out in the out range. The top speed is reasonably high, but it does not turn very much and has a habit of preferentially attacking enemies closer to the mother crystal, so it can be attracted by small boats with fast feet and hit with large or medium vessels from a long distance It is easy to hunt.

If possible, rush into the star system from the hyperlane entrance as far as possible from the mother crystal, and the small ship does not have to deal with both the herd of small crystal creatures emitted by the mother crystal and the guardian crystal It is better to do so.

As I have not mentioned before, large crystal creatures are often not located in the system where the mother crystal exists. Perhaps the large crystal creature is the next generation of mother crystal nested off of mother crystal.

"After all, the mother crystal is tough anyway, so a small ship's attack will only deal as much as a reactive torpedo torpedo. That's good, but the laser doesn't work either, but the weak point of the mother crystal is the light emitting area in the center.

I marked the center of the mother crystal on the screen.

"But this splinter is awkward. The mother crystal spins the projectile approaching exactly exactly, using crystal spines of thickness from the center to the tip, like mobile armor. So, if you remove the Guardian Crystal, it's better for large and medium-sized ships responsible for hitting to siege the Mother Crystal and aim at weak points from all sides, and endure unexpectedly tough bombardment from one direction From "

"... I'm quite detailed."

"Because I have experience of subjugation, I don't ask when and where. It doesn't always behave, and Guardian Crystals don't always have the same performance. ''

There is no certainty that the knowledge we have gained at SOL will apply directly to crystalline life in this world. I don't think it's out of the question from the past trends. There is a lot of information that seems to have been published at SOL, but there is little inconsistency in this world about what appeared at SOL.

"How much do you estimate the accuracy of your information? 』

"I want to make the tea half cloudy, but I don't think the 90% would be wrong. Otherwise I would be a prey to the crystalline creature in two assaults."

I intended to have a safety margin to some extent, but the behavior did not change from SOL as if I were chasing after the crystal creature. I feel that the power of the attack, the frequency of the attack, and the bullet speed are almost intuitively similar. There is almost no difference in endurance, so I think the mother crystal will not change so much.

"Yes ... thanks for the valuable information. It's too specific and I'm wondering how to tell. ''

"Please keep the secret of the information source. For each other."

"Yes, for each other. I'm going around well. "

"And think about what you pay for the information. It's an enormously large" lender. "Isn't Majesty going down on it?"

"Uh ... I know. I'll make it as convenient as I can. It would be helpful if you could give us directions for convenience if possible. 』

"Hmm ... then then"

I told Major Serena that he was considering deploying a high-performance combat bot in Black Lotus. Serena was a very high-ranking soldier and a nobleman, so I wondered if she had any connections.

"I see. That ship doesn't have a strong Imperial Space Soldier equipped with Power Armor. Okay, there was one company in the munitions industry owned by the Duke of Halls that deals with high-performance military bots, so I'll look it up and write a letter of introduction. '

"It's fast and it helps."

Serena Serena doesn't let his guard down, but he likes it because he rewards him for his work. If you get drunk, you'll be troublesome!

"Is the army going to reattack?"

"It will probably be. I was able to get useful information and the rest was up to my hard work. "

"I think it's tough with the last fight?"

If you concentrate the strength of all reconnaissance fleets with no damage, I think there was one chan. Since the third and fourth reconnaissance fleets have suffered considerable damage, the combined fleet would be a bit harsh.

"We know it. The precious sacrifices of the Third and Fourth Fleets revealed their enemy strength. I will go on a victory stance including the main forces waiting at the base. ''

"I see. That would be all right."

If the main force stationed at the outpost moves along with it, it is enough for the fight. The victory will be solid unless you undertake a bit of undertaking.

"It will take a few more days to organize and organize, so try to develop your spirit"

`` I ai mum ''

Saying back to Major Serena's words, she smiled with a slight smile and disconnected.

Now, do you want to tell Mimi and Elma this story too? First, wake them up and take a shower.
