"Why so few?"
"There seem to be many reasons, such as the weak faith of the indigenous people, or the rapid modernization. Anyway, it is not directly related to the current topic, so I won't go into the details for now."
Theon ended the conversation early, coughed deliberately, and turned his attention to the hummingbird again.
"Then, why do you have to go all the way to Miami? It would be easier no matter how you think about it, in the Western Kingdom or South America, right?"
"…Although you are right, both of these things are impossible."
Although Ajid couldn't understand the bird's expression, if the hummingbird were a human, it would probably have a serious expression.
He lowered his head slightly and continued.
"In the hidden place where we lived, there was also a person who belonged to the 'Mother of Orbs'... but now I don't know who she is."
"...The news is unclear, which is too unsettling."
"He said he felt signs of instability in the south and left the village. He said no matter what happened, he would come back in three days, but in the end he did not come back."
"When you felt this sign, didn't you ask for help?"
"No, right? Vice-captain Glasses won't contact the headquarters just because the sensor reacts, right?"
"……yes."
It would be fine if the signs were only discovered within one's own group, but if one had to report them to a larger group, the information would be too little.
Those who left the village also planned to find out what happened first and then take corresponding measures.
"There are a few people in other villages who can call for rescue, but they have either gone south to investigate, and there is no news, or they are not there for other reasons."
"Although not everyone, there is not just one person whose information is unknown, which is very suspicious."
After hearing Hummingbird's words, Xion's expression was very serious.
If only one person is unknown, it may be an accident, but if there are multiple people, it is unlikely.
In all likelihood, it can be thought that it has something to do with the common "symptoms of instability."
"Even in the Western Kingdom, as long as you go to the city, aren't there witches in the witch grocery store?"
"Then leave it to others. In order to call for help, several people, including me, scattered to various places."
Since it is impossible to determine the location of the person who can call for help, it is indeed reasonable to increase the workload in order to be able to call for help more accurately.
Even if he fails here, as long as someone can call for help.
"If everything goes well, can we already request rescue?"
"No, probably not yet."
Regarding Anna's words, Theon clearly denied it.
If a few people dispersed, this possibility should be very possible, but Xion seemed to be very confident in his words.
"Why do you assert that?"
"Because this is the first time I've heard of it."
"…………Woolen cloth?"
Theon's answer left Anna dumbfounded.
Ji was the only one who reacted as clearly as she did, and the other members were also shocked.
After looking at these people, Xion took out a keychain-like thing made of blue round stone from his arms.
"Your Excellency! This is..."
"Yes. Proof of belonging to the 'Mother of Orbs'."
"...In other words, you belong to the 'Mother of Orbs'?"
"yes."
Regarding confirming the reasoning, Theon answered lightly and was silent for three seconds.
"You didn't say it in the first place, you bastard!"
The roar of the hummingbird was the mood of everyone present.
But Theon was not discouraged and explained: "It's just a name."
However, Theon, who actually seems to belong to the 'Mother of Orbs', is unaware of this, indicating that the hummingbirds have not yet sent out an invitation for help.
"Stop fussing at times like this! Tell me and ask for help!"
“There are so many things I want to do, but I can’t do it alone.”
In the birdcage, facing the rude hummingbirds, Theon was very calm.
Then, he looked at Xiaojing slowly.
"What, Easter?"
"Asking for rescue is equivalent to contacting a group other than others. From my current position, you must at least get permission from the lightsaber captain."
"……Indeed it is."
As far as Theon knows, the 'Orb Mother' appears to be a community dedicated to spreading a wide range of information.
If the information within the human army is leaked, many people besides the people will know that information.
Under this trend, although it is not believed that Xion would do such a thing, there is indeed a danger of such intelligence leakage.
Mist was also waiting for Ajid's answer, but his expression wanted to object.
Generally speaking, there is no need for Xiaojing to forgive her here.
Because there is no reason for the human army to help the hummingbirds solve their problems.
If the hummingbirds hadn't asked for help, they wouldn't have been the victims. On the contrary, it is beneficial to the human army.
However, there was one thing that Aki cared about.
"Your Highness Hummingbird, I have something to ask you."
"What's wrong?"
"Do the signs of instability you mentioned also have an impact on human society?"
Although he hasn't heard the specific situation yet, Aki is still very concerned about this.
Although it is only a commotion in the outer area at present, if it happens in South America, it is likely to affect human society.
Hummingbird answered Aki's question simply.
"Of course...of course more people die."
Judging by his strange attitude, you knew he wasn't lying.
Since Theon didn't interrupt, he must have the same opinion.
Then, there is only one option Ajid should take.
"Istar, you are allowed to contact the Mother of Orbs under my supervision."
Theon made contact with the 'Mother of Orbs' under the watchful eye of Arquid.
After making the decision, Xiaojing and the others moved from the captain's room to the hangar.
"What are you doing here?"
"I need a little more space...can I use a corner of the hangar?"
"As long as it doesn't hinder us, it's up to you."
Originally, the Thirteenth Skills Class was also forced to have a holiday today, but the Thirteenth Skills Class was basically composed of technical geeks, and most of them gathered in the hangar.
I am afraid that such a phenomenon of being fully armed outside of business work time has occurred, and Ajid predicts.
"What are you doing in the corner of the hangar?"
"Uh, the world scale brought by magic, multiple people communicating in real time at the same time?"
"What, it sounds interesting."
The members of the Thirteenth Skill Squadron in the hangar heard the conversation between Xion and Kana and gathered around.
Engineers are basically creatures with a strong sense of curiosity.
Of course they would show interest if they could be seen using magic that was unknown to them.
Mist tried to disperse the gathered technicians, but no one listened to her. Ajid didn't feel the need to forcefully drive them away, so he was surrounded by countless people watching the fun.
"Then first..."
After giving instructions to the onlookers to keep their distance, Theon turned his whole body towards the open space. So his shadow moved unnaturally, spreading in the direction his body was facing.
Then the shadow undulated like water, and a white cylindrical object appeared.
The object that seemed to jump out of the water was more than a meter long, but that seemed to be not all.
Seeing that "It's hard to take out big things..." Xion muttered, stretched his hands towards the cylinder, and raised his arms as if to pull something out.
In an instant, the entire cylinder flew out of the shadow in conjunction with that movement, and its momentum reached a height of about two meters.
"ah……"
Then, after Xion's stupid voice sounded, a cylindrical object drew an arc and suppressed the two watching technical team members.
"Hygienist Maddie!!"
"It's okay, it's very soft and not heavy."
The engineers shouted, his voice soft.
Aki and the others didn't know what to do about the upcoming farce, but the people in the Thirteen Skills Class seemed to have gotten used to it. The two people who were trapped underneath climbed out on their own. After confirming that they were safe and sound, the others also simply Back to the crowd watching the fun.
During this period, as long as Theon waved his arm slightly sideways, the cylindrical object would roll sideways and spread.
The cylindrical object is essentially a mat-like thing, white in color, with a surface covered with round protrusions and an area of about three meters square.
Maybe made of something like hard rubber, as Theon said, not much in terms of hardness or weight.
