Chapter 5: The Culprit Emerges

This strange siege finally came to an end with the joint efforts of the garrison and the Onmyoji. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 But the effects of this mutation are far from over.

For example, the quarrel in the council chamber began. Anyway, the responsibility is to shirk each other, and the benefits are competing with each other.

But these are all things that Aqiu needs to care about, and my current business is not where it is.

My current mission is to investigate the culprit of the tragic mutation in the Red Devil Pavilion and to find out the cause of the monster attack on the city by Ah Qiu.

"Tell me quickly! Why didn't you open the defensive spell in time this time? Did you kid be lazy when you were on duty? Tell me honestly, or else you will be punished!" In prison, I looked at the onmyoji who was on duty at that time who was locked up in the cell. In order to adapt to the occasion, I specially changed another set of clothes. This time, in keeping with the gloomy atmosphere of the prison, I wore a black suit and a pair of black sunglasses, which seems to be what I wore when I was tortured to extract a confession.

"I wanted to open it, but when I was about to open it, a big hole suddenly appeared in the place where the spells had been placed, and all the charms were destroyed. The onmyoji who was kneeling on the ground was full of remorse.

"Hmph, did you see who did it! Now there is only a confession and leniency, because your dereliction of duty has caused many innocent casualties, if you still want to get away with it。。。。。。 You owe so much, no one can protect you!" the last sentence was so imposing。。。。。 Where did you hear that?

"No, the little one is really clear, the spell is so well pasted... I told me everything I saw。。。。。。 Compound adult... I'm just a small family, don't mess with me. ”

Suddenly fell ... This sentence is so familiar. By the way, didn't the head maid of the Red Devil Pavilion also say that her own foreign mansion also fell all at once.

Is there any connection between these two things? Could it be that the excavator did it before。。。。。

Well, it's possible. Sure enough, my previous guess (or delusion) was correct, and I was really witty.

If the two murderers are the same person, then what is the connection between the Red Devil Pavilion and the inner city of the world?

I don't know, at least not yet, everything needs to be explored.

Red Misuzu and I walked over to the place where the charm had been placed. This place has indeed been destroyed as the onmyoji said. I swept away all the dirt and found a pit in front of me.

I went, there was a tunnel here, which reminded me of the pit next to the custom house. Maybe these two pits are connected? It's not whimsical, it's reasoning.

Why wasn't there that big pit before the monster siege? Why did the excavator disappear during the monster siege?

It's all about this excavator!

I ran to the custom house and found that the excavator had reappeared in front of my eyes. I hurriedly sat down and moved the excavator out of the way. Sure enough, the big pit from before appeared in front of my eyes again. I walked down the deep cave and found that the exit to the tunnel was the same place where the charm had been placed.

The finger at it all seems to be pointing at the old excavator.

It seems that the murder weapon can be identified, but who is the murderer?

Who is the person who can make a feud with the Red Devil Pavilion in the world?

Nothing is still known.

But the question remains, is this machine really that powerful?

At night, I sat in the custom room and looked through the instruction manual.

"Special environment deep excavation operation and special excavation of high-energy weapons machine (hereinafter referred to as excavator). It is the work of 30 years of painstaking work by scientists in our department. This is a prototype machine. The excavator was so destructive that it destroyed a small city in 20 minutes. The process is no less powerful than an 8.0 magnitude earthquake - it can't be true."

If what happened was supernatural, it meant that the excavator was truly unusual.

I sat back on the excavator to see where the paranormal was going.

"Ale, how can there be a strong faith on this button? Maybe this is the secret of this excavator. I reached out and pressed the button with the power of faith.

And then..... This console has changed dramatically. The console turned inside out, revealing a sci-fi LCD screen.

"Welcome to the special environment deep excavation operation and special excavation high-energy weapon machine, please select the weapon operation mode. An emotionless voice sounded, and three modes appeared on the display in front of me at the same time: driving mode, digging mode, and destruction mode.

I chose the driving mode and the whole excavator started running smoothly. This accelerates more steadily than a premium car.

I guess the digging mode is to dig holes, and that tunnel should be this guy's masterpiece. If I'm not mistaken, Destruction Mode is probably responsible for the destruction of the Red Devil Pavilion and the spell.

"I'm sorry, I underestimated you. I said, stroking the counter.

It seems that the murder weapon has been determined, and the murderer will be next. I hacked directly into the excavator's database, stole usage data, and imported it to my laptop.

I'd like to see who did such a crazy thing.

After a night of cracking, the data has been cracked out by me, and it seems to be the operation video.

I moved the date to a day earlier to see who was responsible for the mutation.

And then...... What I saw was an already glowing LCD screen in the empty cockpit.

Other words...... This excavator moves on its own.

"During the experiment, it was discovered that the artificial intelligence was out of control and caused a paranormal reaction, so the series was discontinued. The prototype is self-patching, but the attack awareness is obvious. These are the exact words of the manual.

I fell forward and found that the collapse of the Red Devil Pavilion was also the self-control of this excavator.

This guy is a monster. At least more powerful than one of the ice spirits in the Lake of Mist.

Intrigued, I flipped to an earlier usage record.

―――――――― Experiment Log――――――

In a similar indoor testing site, many researchers in white coats are studying the excavator.

"This excavator is the result of 30 years of hard work at Bruster. A man who looked like an old professor said, "Once this weapon is completed, our Celestial Empire will have a super conventional weapon comparable to a nuclear weapon." ”

"Headmaster, the technical parameters are up to standard, do you want to start testing?" said a young researcher.

"The test begins. ”

"Test begins!"

"Test begins!"

With the switch turned on, the excavator began to change into a human form. This is the legendary Transformers.

"Alright, the test is complete, turn off the weapon!"

"Turn off your weapons!"

"Turn off your weapons!"

"The system can't allow it, and the target of the attack is being judged, and the judgment is completed. The counterattack begins. The system is changed to destruction mode. ”

Then the whole screen goes dark.

―――――――― Experiment Log――――――――

That's! That's my first reaction after reading the experiment log.

The damage of this excavator is probably also playing with the earthquake and then playing with it and burying itself in the rubble. It seems that the laboratory was still built in a cave. Sure enough, he deserved it!

If this guy is really self-aware, then it should be done with it.

Thinking like this, I walked outside, and the excavator in front of me was still there at the moment, as if it was harmless to humans and animals.

This is the best, and the province will fight again. Let's tear it down in a while, there are so many accidents in the province. I am directly responsible for the collapse of the Red Devil Pavilion and the destruction of the human world—the monsters are probably also attracted by this one.

Boom -

"Intent Attacker Found! Intent Attacker Found! Destroy Immediately! Destroy Immediately!" After a roar of the engine, an emotionless mechanical voice reappeared.

The deformed excavator in front of me told me that the video I had just seen was true, and raised the alert level.

The excavator in front of him was transformed into a human form after a few seconds of deformation. I don't know if it's better to change the name to Transformers or to the human form of an excavator.

The transformation scene looks extremely spectacular, and the huge robot attracts the attention of people on the street, and there is a tendency to look at it.

"Don't come, enemy, evacuate, be on alert!" "I couldn't say much anymore because of the short time, and I threw a talisman card out and hit the excavator humanoid. After a small explosion, the seemingly extremely worn armor did not become tattered at all.

Is it finally going to be fought? Damn the intelligent AI.
