Thirty-first day through another world, night.

Apartment.

The faint light of the fire brought a hint of warmth to this dark and narrow space, but psychologically it was "warm", but it was physically a little unbearable......

“…… It's so hot, Lord Admiral~Isn't there air conditioning here~"

Li Lan was engrossed in dealing with the metal blocks stacked in front of him, and replied to Z16's questions without looking back: "No, even if there is, it won't be used"

"Huh? Why? Z16 is hot right now~"

"No energy!"

Ning Hai's face was slightly red, and he said apologetically to Z16: "It's all because of my ......"

"How could it be~ It's normal for Ninghai sauce to be afraid of the dark, and I was also afraid of the dark when I was young~"

Li Lan suddenly wanted to turn around and ask her: How old are you this year?

But for now, let's get this one done first......

Originally, Lilan and the two shipwives didn't need to be crowded into such a room, but because of the fire outside, it might attract a deep-sea habitat ship, and in the dark, Lilan couldn't confirm whether there was a patrol at night, and Ninghai was afraid of the dark (this is the point!). It's the point! Focus! Because it's so important, it's said three times), and in the case of the light blade, the blue is also used for "processing".

Considering the existence of Z16, if there are two ship mothers, whether it is Ninghai or Z16, it should not be so boring, and the use of light energy has entered the third stage and there is enough energy storage, so Lilan officially opened the "night" mode.

To put it simply, it is the same as working overtime......

In this case, Lilan naturally can't be used as a "mobile light source", so he can only use the 0-level fire gathering technique to open a miniature bonfire in this room, which is fine if it's winter, but the problem is that it's summer......

"Wow~~~~~~ it's so hot~~~~~~~~~"

Ning Hai felt even more guilty in his heart, so he had to turn his gaze to Li Lan for help: "That...... Lord Admiral......"

With a sigh, Lilan put away the light blade on his five fingers.

"Am I an admiral or a nanny...... Don't talk about eating and living, you still have to take care of the temperature......"

Calculate the distance and be careful to avoid the campfire in the middle.

Tier 1 water spell, fog lock array

A thin mist of water fills in from all sides, surrounding the bonfire in the center, creating a hazy aesthetic, while at the same time the temperature around it rapidly decreases.

"This-this-is this the magic in teleportation?! Na, Lord Admiral~ Can you teach Z16 this magic? ”

The movement on Li Lan's hand froze: "Do you want to learn?" ”

"Uh-huh!" Z16 nodded vigorously, and his "sparkling" eyes made Li Lan a little unbearable.

No, that's not the point, why is there such a special effect of "sparkling"! If it's all going to glow, why do you have to catch fire?!

"Ahem, this magic isn't really useful, don't look at it pretty now-"

"The Z16 doesn't think it's pretty, do you?" Z16 tilted his head and looked at Rilan with a strange gaze.

The corners of his mouth twitched: "...... Can the Z16 tell me why I want to learn magic? ”

"It can be used to hide and hide~!"

“……”

And that's not counting elementary school students?

You also said that you were afraid of the dark when you were a child, haven't you grown up and matured now? Why are you still obsessed with hide and seek?!

Not to "explore the truth of the world", not to "change this unfair world", not to "for the Union" or "for the tribe", not even "Demacia"!

Learning magic just because you want to hide and hide - it's crazy!

(PS setting addendum: If the power of magic spreads in a world that has never embodied the elements in this way, it will bring a drastic change to the world)

"I refuse!"

"Eh~ why?"

"I won't say your bad reason......" Li Lan suddenly felt tired: "Even if you want to learn, you can't learn it." ”

In a world dominated by inert energy, it would take decades of meditation to become even the lowest-level magic apprentice, and it was clear that it was impossible for Lilan to let Z16 do such a thing.

"Woo~ Is it because Z16 has no talent?"

“…… Ahem, you can understand it that way," Avoiding Z16's pitiful gaze, Rilan replied vaguely.

However, after turning his head and seeing Ning Hai's eyes that were also burning with some kind of light, Li Lan knew that something was going to be worse: "Lord Admiral, can Ning Hai learn it, that magic-"

“……”

As the highest-end product on the technology side, it's not good to engage in your black technology, and you actually want to learn magic one by one, what the hell is this?!!

―――――― Split ――――――

When the eastern sky was bright, Lilan finally finished the "work" in hand.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead and looking at the thickened "shield" in front of him, which was more than one meter high and more than half a meter wide, Li Lan's face was blackened by iron ash with a satisfied smile.

Combining the remaining edges and corners of the composite metal, plus some other metals, and cutting and fusing them with the third stage of light blades, the final result is the "shoddy" "heavy shield" in front of you.

Whether it was the initial encounter with a deep-sea perch on the east coast or the attack on the expedition, Reilan's current strength was almost useless in long-range combat, and in melee combat, the thrill of being crushed before was not so quickly forgotten.

With this kind of attack barely breaking the defense, the only thing Lilan can do is to increase his chances of survival in that kind of life-and-death battle - that is, heap defense.

Different from aluminum metal in the usual sense, this composite metal plate obtained from the deep-sea habitat ship can not only resist the high temperature of thousands of degrees head-on, but also far exceed the resistance to explosions of ordinary metals.

Then, after discovering that there were enough resources left to make something in addition to the resources for construction, Lilan made this thing after a few calculations.

Of course, because it is cut and fused by the light blade, so don't expect anything like appearance.

"It looks like the corner deck that Z16 is missing~" - from the evaluation of elementary school student Z16.

"Does Lord Admiral want to make a toy for Z16?" -- From the doubtful Ning Hai.

"Really?! It's really for Z16-" -- from the excited elementary school student Z16.

"Smack!" -- From a certain admiral who was "embarrassed and angry".
