Although he had long expected that this would happen one day, so Theon was not surprised, but could he tell Theon in advance that he would indeed be involved?
"So, let's not talk about whether it can actually be done. Let them each try to use magic and come up with a plan."
"That's too much! Doing such interesting things in a place I don't know!"
Genta kept apologizing, and the others rushed up with their hands the whiteboard and the monitor used to take data.
"It sounds interesting when I say it. Anyway, I'm talking about you. Haven't you already prepared ten or twenty kinds of weapons that use magic?"
"...I have been working in this 13th technical class for three years, how could I not touch such an interesting topic?"
The Thirteenth Skill Class has the top skills among the technical classes of the human army, and is also known as the number one problem children group. There are certainly reasons for these evaluations.
The technical team of the human army is mainly divided into two types: the development department that develops new military equipment and the maintenance department that repairs various machines used in actual combat.
Among them, Thirteen Skills Class is classified as the latter... in fact, it is more famous as a developer.
Because the human army holds several new product development competitions for technical groups every year.
Anyone can participate in the competition as long as they are a technical team of the human army or a technician belonging to the human army.
If it can be adopted, not only can you get a corresponding amount of bonus, but it can also improve the status of technical personnel and increase the annual budget of the team. There are many benefits, so many people participate every time.
The 13th technical class has the experience of being called a regular recruit in that competition, and their high technical ability is recognized.
On the other hand, because he regularly publishes powerful things with various meanings, he is treated like a problem child.
After the competition for a new type of explosive developed by Lin Li ended last year, he said: "We recognize excellent technical capabilities, but do not use loopholes in the legal system to create illegal fire weapons."
Of course, he didn't intentionally create such dangerous items.
"If we do this, we can create explosives that are three times more powerful than before, right?" This was something born of Lin Li's inspiration and curiosity.
Regardless of whether they are good or bad... The Thirteenth Skills Class, where talented people gather, has many people who are very inquisitive and curious, and people who were not like that at first were influenced to become that way.
The conclusion is that giving something as unknown and interesting as magic to the people of the Thirteenth Skill Class cannot help but turn out like this.
"So, who to start with?"
The chorus started with everyone raising their hands in response to Genzo's words.
In this situation, most people would not raise their hands, but this was not the case in this Thirteen Skills Class.
By the way, Angela, who usually doesn’t take much of an initiative, also gets mixed up.
"Then...well, you go."
"Haha! What I propose is about the thought-controlled drones that are common in science fiction novels..."
The usual lack of motivation now comes from nowhere.
Contrary to the commotion just now, everyone listened to Kotoe's words in silence.
"——Above. I want to hear your opinions and other things... First of all, Theon! Is this magic?"
"have!"
While answering immediately, she showed him the gesture of making a fist.
Although the members of the Thirteen Skills learned the basics of magic from Theon, their understanding of magic was far from adequate.
Although the plan seemed to be proposed after predicting that it might be successful to a certain extent, it was not certain until Theon said "it might be successful."
By the way, this solution is completely achievable.
It can be operated remotely by just thinking about inorganic objects, and there is also magic that gives light intelligence so that it can act autonomously... It is mainly a cleaning tool used by lazy witches to do lazy housework, but it should be applicable.
Later, plans such as "a new flight unit based on the flying magic that Theon always used", "small, high-fire optical weapons based on the improvement of magic", and "a magic wall generator that anyone can use" were utilized. Time flies by just like that when it’s hot.
"It feels like this, how does it feel?"
"What happened……"
"I'm asking if you can do it."
During the extra-human society lecture that was moved to Ajit's private room, Theon told Ajit about the mecha arsenal competition.
Some of them can be made immediately, some must be done, and some even "Would it taste bad if I make this?" I have come up with various plans, but in order to actually make them, I have to ask Aki. Virtue.
In the past, the Thirteen Skills Class was only under the command of the human military technical department, so as long as it did not delay the assigned business, in principle, research and development was free, and it could even be said to be rewarded, but now the situation is different.
Since it belongs to the "Mist" force, it must be recognized by the leader there, Ajid.
"...I think you should know that the 'Mist Legion' is an actual active force. The maintenance of each mobile armor machine must always be perfect. In addition, the maintenance of the 'Mist Legion' itself will also occur. You can take care of these tasks at the same time. ?"
"I will of course take the work assigned to me seriously and only develop it when I have time."
“Can’t we fund that development?”
"The money will be raised by the Thirteenth Technical Class. The master said that he does not plan to use the army's budget..."
Xiaojing mentioned the negative factors one after another, and she answered immediately, smiling and tilting her head slightly.
"Any other questions?" Xion's wordless question seemed to be conveyed to Ajid well, and he finally let out a long breath of boredom.
"...No matter what I say, you are not going to give up, are you?"
"Huh? Do you understand?"
"I've also heard a lot of rumors about the Thirteenth Skills Class."
Although I don’t know what kind of rumors Ajid heard, one thing is for sure, it is not a good thing.
I'm afraid these rumors are all based on facts, big or small.
"There are a few conditions."
"what?"
"If you decide what to actually develop, explain it to me in detail. If there are changes during the development process, even small things must be reported. Regularly report on the progress of the work. Finally, if I think it is not possible, no matter Whether before development or during development, development must be stopped honestly.”
"Pretty strict!"
"I also have plans to license some things. Take the first step, but it must not be developed secretly."
The last sentence was "Pretend?" I thought about it for a moment, but when I saw Aki's overly serious look in my eyes, I immediately rejected the idea. His sincere eyes fully showed that he really wanted to "don't do this."
In short, first bring the conditions proposed by Akido back to the Thirteenth Skill Class to discuss with Yuan Xiang and the others. This seems to be the trend.
"Then again, to what extent can magic and science actually coexist?"
"Why, isn't the captain very interested?"
"Otherwise I wouldn't learn magic from you."
After hearing Ajid's answer, I thought "I see" and took out the "Magic Flute", a special communication terminal from the "Witch Grocery Store" from my pocket.
"It's the easiest thing to understand right now where magic and science coexist."
Several magic technologies are integrated into touch panel communication terminals widely used in human society.
There are roughly three types of magic contained in this terminal.
Uses Power Quartz for power.
Magic can be transmitted to distant places through the magic phone.
Moreover, it does not use radio waves, but uses magical communication technology to achieve phone calls and information exchange.
Other than that, it is almost the same as a general mobile terminal... In short, it uses science and technology.
As Miranda said, 10% magic and 90% science.
"It sounds like science and technology...but if you consider human use, it would be too harsh not to reach this level, right?"
"Maybe. In fact, 99% of the weapons sent later are ordinary props, right?"
Whether it is bullets or missiles, they are just ordinary things slightly processed and enchanted.
To the uninitiated, it appears to be an ordinary weapon with strange symbols and patterns engraved on it.
"If you are someone like me, you can increase the proportion of magic, but if not, my judgment is that magic accounts for 20% and science accounts for 80%. This is the limit."
"Is this what the Thirteenth Skills Class developed?"
"There's no point in using it by myself, so I think we should aim for this route."
If you accidentally create something that only Theon can use, you may be targeted by races like Mist and the human army.
Theon's idea was to make something that could be used by anyone useful to the human armies.
It should be easier to first please the human army like this and then make something more advanced.
