I Got Reincarnated And Mistaken As A Genius? - Chapter 75

It is slowly and irregularly revived (`・ ω ・ ´)(Author note??)

──── Arakawa Miki’s perspective ────

“No way to use a peacemaker”

The United States’ proud defense strategic satellite ─── is a peacemaker that functions as a completely attacking satellite. Perhaps The New World*¹ took control by hacking from the outside, but when The New World*¹ shot two shots in quick succession, it seems that there are insiders in the United States who have the right to control the launch. Anyway, it’s probably the army’s technical lieutenant general who had been spending a lot of time before. Shall we poke at the US government from that point at a later date?

Even so, the defense system of the Ursuna Empire was a level of laughter(?). It’s horrifying to protect the ship from the direct hits of the Peacemaker, if it were a full-scale war with the Ursuna Empire at that time. Ellis, whose face turned blue when she quivered unintentionally, opened her mouth while checking the terminal.

“I’ve been contacted by the Ursuna magician. I’ve started rebuilding the activated lily shield, and it will take about 30 minutes to reuse it because it’s currently being filled with magical power. The peacemaker has only attacked twice. It was lucky. “

“The Peacemaker’s control seems to be restored normally, so it’s okay if the defense system can be used again in just 30 minutes …. Still, the programmatic calculations show that it’s the weapons on Earth that destroy the Lily Shield. I knew it was impossible, but I didn’t think it was to this extent*³ “(Shuichi)

“I agree. It is understandable that the medium for developing the art is said to be a national treasure. No matter how stable the situation in the G-88 world is, I lent out the Lily shield, which is the key to defense, to the flagship. Her Majesty Victoria, who let me install it, so I doesn’t raise my head.*² “(Ursuna Magician?)

The screen in front of me shows Noah’s fleet recovering from a jamming attack. There seemed to be no noticeable damage, and as usual, The ship continued to sail calmly in a circular formation centered on the flagship mermaid. Looking at the situation, Shuichi, who seemed to be unusually impatient, contacted me.

“Can you hear me? Communication was temporarily paralyzed due to a jamming attack. I heard a terrible noise during the restoration, what happened? Are you checking the situation there? “(Shuichi?)

“Of course. Almost at the same time as the jamming bullet landed, the US peacemaker was hacked and hijacked. It seems that a uranium spear ejected from the peacemaker rushed into the mermaid at an estimated speed of 12000 km. However, it seems to be unharmed thanks to the activation of the land defense magic “Lily Shield” that the Ursuna Empire is proud of. I will send the information from here to that main terminal for the time being. “(Miki?)

While answering Shuichi’s question, I hold back laughter in the back of my throat. I wonder which is the true “defense”, the “Peace Maker” that the United States announced to the world as part of its national defense strategy a few years ago, and the “Lily Shield”, the national defense magic of the Ursuna Empire.

“Okay, I’m receiving it now. By the way, what will you do in the future? I think it’s a trap that the submarine unit withdrew, but it’s also an opportunity. I would like to rush into the ice shelf connected to the Antarctic base and move on to secure the bridgehead. They wouldn’t be able to use such an attack satellite near their base. “(Shuichi)

“I’ll leave the operation to you. This time, I’m using a transfer gate, so it’s different from a normal military operation. To put it the other way around, the main unit can be preserved unharmed until the gate is opened to some extent. If you change your strategy, you can deal with it here, so the military department will do what you think is the best. “(Miki Maybe?)

“Then, I will rush into the ice shelf as planned. However, there are strange movements around the enemy’s Antarctic base. In the unlikely event that you fail to secure the bridgehead, the operation will be stopped and you will withdraw to the attack start point. “(Shuichi)

When Shuichi, who salutes him, disappears from the screen, Noah’s fleet is projected again. Ask Ellis after having a cup of cold and fragrant black tea in her mouth.

“Is The Main Team Ready?”

“The 1st landing party is already waiting in front of the gate. After the 1st unit secures the bridgehead, both the Merkava and Ursuna forces, which are escorted by the TMN direct report unit and the Russian state maintenance unit, have started landing. This unit also includes Kouki and Chernobog, and we have already arranged for a second reserve unit to be available at any time. “

“Where are Alice and Kon?”

“………… Currently waiting inside the Type 0 suit. As far as the vital numbers are concerned, she seems to be sleeping.”

No wonder. Both of them are tired after the final adjustment and the subsequent inspection, but it’s better to let them lie down until the last minute. I don’t really want to let him go, but for some reason, he insisted that the three of us, including Kouki, had to go to Antarctica and ask Dr. Sandra. He said he would tell him the reason when he got home, but could he tell me the secret that she was hiding? Well, don’t expect too much from that.

“Alice and her friends can be left to sleep. The problem is ───”

“Isn’t it the trend of Kouki and Chernobog?”

“Well, did you get something?”

“Nothing is clear. Chernobog’s dormitory has its own security system. Also, all information terminals are physically isolated from the outside, so it is impossible to invade from the outside. In addition, all intrusions into the dormitory have been detected by the Chernobog side and have never been successful. They are shift-based and completely wary of intrusions from the outside. “

I hurriedly endure the sigh of Ellis’s report. She is doing her best. Shuichi has also helped by allocating personnel who have experience in special work missions in the UN army, but he has not yet been able to break through the security on the Chernobog side.

Of course, you can be bullish considering the possibility of hostility. However, Captain Yurya provides herself as a sample for an extremely dangerous experiment with a probability of 0.006% success of “transplanting the entire brain” for the purpose of collecting medical data for Alice, who has a burden on the brain. It was. In addition, in the G-88 world, he takes the initiative in exploring dangerous areas and urgently dispatching in the event of an emergency. In other words, what are you doing with Kouki inside the dormitory? Other than that, it is a very friendly and reliable unit.

“It can’t be helped … Anyway, what are you going to use for the requisitioned prototype?”

“Excuse me, but what is the prototype that was requisitioned?”

“You should have sent the information to the military department, but haven’t you received it? It’s the testing machine X-55 developed by the engineering department.”

Ellis has a strange look on my words. She is only seconded to me, who belongs to the Chief Operating Officer, and her original affiliation is that of the military department. So I thought that if I sent information to the military department, she would automatically get the information, but is that different?

“I’m sorry. I think the captain explained the wartime regulations of the military department …”

From Shuichi-san? By the way, when was the last time I had a conversation with that person other than the previous communication? It seems that it was certain when I ate with members including Kon-chan to Koki and Alice about a week ago … No, it seems like I wasn’t there …

“Under the regulations of the military department, at the same time as the transition to the wartime system, information of class 2 or higher is not reported to the personnel seconded to each department to prevent confidentiality leakage. Probably the prototype is class 2 or higher. Isn’t it specified? “

Ellis, who read my troubled expression, casually teaches me the wartime rules. By the way, I feel like I was told such a thing, but I was surprised that it was also applied to Mr. Ellis, who was seconded to the executive department. This is completely my lack of confirmation. It was good to notice before it became irreparable.

“I’m sure the X-55 was classified as Class 2 or higher. I wasn’t sure enough. So do you know about the X-55?”

“No, I don’t know. It looks like a new model developed by the engineering department.”

“A stealth tester that flies at high altitudes. It can fly further above the Karman line.”

By the way, since Ellis’s surname is Dauntless, is she originally from the Air Force? Members of TMN’s direct reports, including her, have been erased before joining the UN forces, so I can’t judge.

“Sorry. I’m from the Army Intelligence Corps and I’m not very familiar with the sky.”

“It doesn’t matter. To explain, a normal aircraft flies in a place called the troposphere from an altitude of 15,000 meters to 20,000 meters. The maximum altitude of a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft that Ellis has boarded I think it’s about 25,000 at most. Moreover, the area within an altitude of 50,000 meters is called the troposphere. Have you heard of the troposphere? “

“Okay”

“Moreover, the area within 85,000 meters of altitude is called the mesosphere. The Karman line is 100,000 meters above that, or 100 kilometers above the ground.”

“… Does that mean outer space?”

“Well, depending on how it is defined, there is no doubt that it is in outer space above the Karman line. And the test aircraft X-55 uses a rocket engine at an altitude of 130,000 meters to reach a speed of 10,000 km / h, Mach. It is a stealth aircraft that flies at 8 or more. “

“Isn’t it detected by reconnaissance satellites or space debris radar?”

“Because it is a stealth aircraft, it is not detected by the debris radar. It is almost impossible to find it because it also deploys optical camouflage from satellites. However, it has a serious drawback.”

I remembered the fact that there was an explanation of the work that would normally be fun, and stopped at the bottom. That’s right, it has a terrible drawback … Ellis, who saw my face, which would look like a bite of a bitter worm, asked me a question with a blue face for some reason.

“Maybe there is irreparable fatal damage to the crew?”

“No! No! I don’t make such a defective product. The problem is that the aircraft is too special to attach a landing gear, that is, when it takes off, it ejects the crew in the middle and crashes due to lack of fuel. And the X-55 is very expensive! Simply put, the 8th generation power suit used by Koki is fully equipped and the price is about a dozen. If you do, the cost will go down, but I made only one because there is no use other than collecting experimental data. “

That’s right … As a result of earnestly enhancing performance, the X-55 has become a disposable stealth aircraft that is 12 times more valuable than Satanachia, which was a dedicated machine for Kouki, which accounts for about 3% of Noah’s annual budget. It’s going to hurt my stomach to use that aircraft for something … It’s a mess to make it for use but not use it.

“Dozen? Dozen !? You often got permission from the Treasury Department.”

“Since I am basically a researcher except for the personnel of the military department, I will spare no money for the quest for new things …. However, I completed the refurbished Alice type amphibious battleship, which was almost a remake of the Alice type land battleship. Due to the hurry, the budget of the engineering department is tight until next year instead of this year. At that point, Koki gave Noah’s satellite net broadcasting right to the Russian side free of charge, and the diamond mining business right presented from the other side. To be honest, it would have been a big deal if the New Metal Development Department had not transferred from the Next Generation Science Research Institute. G-88 Aside from the world, Noah on the earth side is now metal. I live on the sales of the development department. “

And what’s even more annoying to me is that the Metal Development Department apparently cooperates considerably with Koki and Chernobog. Already, some Chernobog members are using new high-hardness metal bodies. As a matter of fact, every department is desperate to compete for surplus goods in order to cash in, but Koki is given priority to surplus goods.

Rather, isn’t it a regular product called a surplus product? However, the products for sale seem to be in time for delivery, there is no deterioration in quality, and there is no wearing of the purchased materials. Where do you get the surplus and other materials that she has? I wondered if he was thinking about such a mysterious alchemy method that Koki and his friends were doing, Ellis opened her mouth while offering new tea.

“This is a rumor, but I’ve heard that dragons are behaving strangely in the G-88 world.”

“Weird behavior?”

“It seems that a large flying object was detected by a simple anti-aircraft radar in the Emperor of Merkava. Since the aircraft and dragon flying in the vicinity were not on the schedule, a monster warning was issued and a scrambled aircraft intercepted from a nearby air base. However, looking at the airspace, it seems that a group of dragons was in the process of transporting a container with the Noah mark and code on it. The interceptor pilot returned after visually checking the code. I heard. “

“Actions that aren’t on the schedule … It depends on the weather, but by the way, where is the department using the code listed? No way, the Metal Development Department?”

“It’s a medical department container that was delayed due to bad weather. And one more thing, I’ve confirmed, do you remember the Linked Bull Empire?”

“Well, that idiot called Dorne was about to take over the country.”

“Yes. Noah’s C-type transport ship was packed with large containers and anchored at the port of the Linked Bull Empire for about two days. It was different from the normal transport route, so I checked it, but a monster warning came out. It seems that he was evacuated. By the way, the alarm was a false alarm. “

“What is the container code?”

“It was a relief supply for the poor requested by the G-88 World Political Department. There is nothing wrong with the contents such as food and medicine. The number of containers transported was 32 and the requested amount arrived on time. However, if the C-type transport ship is full, it should carry 35 containers. “

“In other words, when I loaded three additional containers while moored at the port of Linked Bull and arrived, those containers disappeared somewhere?”

“That’s right. However, when I loaded it on the ship, the captain said that it seemed to be full because 32 pieces were unbalanced and were loaded differently than usual.”

An unplanned medical department container …, a political department container that disappeared somewhere … Certainly there is nothing wrong with each one, and it is common for the G-88 to evacuate due to delays in transportation and false alarms. Besides, there is no point in cooperating with the Metal Development Department because the medical department and the political department, which are headquartered in G-88, have completely separate budgets.

However, I wonder what this discomfort is ───. It remained in my mind until Ellis announced that the fleet had arrived on the ice shelf.
