Genius Engineer in the Labyrinth - Chapter 399



Only Noblemtl

Titan (1)

Alan and Nicola set about building the Titan. He would rather stay underground, but he went up to the living room once every three days to hear what was going on in the world.

In Kasara, the standoff between the Destroyer and the Depth 7 Superhumans continued.

‘The destroyer is stronger than I thought.’

Among the special villains, he was the only one whose location was updated in real time. To be precise, he acted confidently whether or not he was being openly monitored by satellite. Now I know why he acted that way.

Alan accessed Samramansang and searched for battle footage. There were many people who acted as if they had multiple lives, and somehow managed to get past Soldos’ control and film it.

Of course, it was paid. The quality wasn’t that good even though I paid for it. The video was taken from very far away and the image quality was terrible.

‘It doesn’t look good.’

There was nothing wrong with Alan’s eyes, but it was a phenomenon that occurred because the video frame rate was 60. The superhumans moved so fast that it was impossible to capture them in detail on the screen.

Still, I was able to confirm the important contents.

‘The Destroyer is overwhelmingly strong on the Ice Steel crystal. Does the crystal assist him like a mental realm?’

Alan thought of the Ice Steel crystals, which were as vast as an ice rink. According to the information revealed, they were about the size of a small country. That’s why even if Soldos had been aware of it, there was no way to solve it.

There is also a way for Soldos to decide and destroy the decision, but what would he do if the destroyer came south? He was at depth 7 even without the decision.

Anyway, thanks to the ongoing fight, Chairman Roman didn’t have anything to bother Alan about right away.

“Larissa, that mean, nasty, cruel, vile bitch. I’m sure she told everything.”

“What?”

“Taylor, are you forgetful again? Your junior has gained the ability to interfere with the labyrinth.”

“Oh, don’t say that in front of me. Alan, did you hear that? He’s spitting out bad words again….”

“The junior went down before I could say that.”

“Now you’re intelligent. It’s a shame.”

Alan started working on the Titan again. The Eldorado Bank Titan could be used as is after repairs were completed, but that would be against the aesthetics.

Any cutting-edge machine or magical tool had to be used with a full understanding of its principles. Except for special cases like keys.

Nicola, who had been lying around carelessly, got up and ran away from the star-written book and the memory correction.

“I’m scared of the asterisks···.”

The Titan’s soulstone was full of star characters. While the average automaton had just a few dots, the Titan was a dense galaxy.

A child running away from vegetables asked his parents.

“Star characters, do I really need to know them?”

“You said you wanted to study.”

“I want to give up···.”

“Okay, then.”

“Wow, that’s too much. I thought you were going to cheer me on, but your response is too cold.”

“If it doesn’t fit your aptitude, it’s better to give up. Sometimes giving up is a good choice.”

“you?”

“Even if the results are slow, if it’s fun, I dig into it.”

“What makes you slow? Even if you think about it that way, it’s fun because you’re faster than others! You turned me, a promising prospect at the Magic Tower, into an ordinary person···.”

Behind the glowing Nikola, a child was curled up, and behind him lay the Titan of El Dorado.

As expected from a wealthy group, it was an excellent machine. Based on that, the AI ​​of the Titan that was picked up from Sansimon was built from scratch. The Titan didn’t need an artificial spirit because it was controlled by humans.

“Isn’t it… If the artificial spirit is in control, the cockpit space can be filled with other parts.”

“Can an artificial spirit that can handle a Titan be created in no time?”

“That is also true.”

The Titan was like a mass of magical power, so will and assimilation were very important to control it properly. If you put a newborn artificial spirit into it, it would be swept away and disappear.

Box or Leopard would have made a great pilot, but they had their own roles. They were weaker than Taylor and Shiva, who were designated as pilots.

“Sir, Titan is a walking weapons factory concept, what about Shiva?”

“It’s a recovery and defense totem. I ground a lot of reptilian bones into the Titan’s magical circuits.”

“Kids who believe in something similar to the Mother Church?”

“yes.”

“The effect will be very good.”

Like a wizard, Nicola focused on performance. He was not interested in anyone’s gaze or universal morality.

“It’s closer to a corpse golem than a titan.”

“That’s not it.”

“I know. I’m just thinking of something to tease you about.”

The Titan’s appearance was that of a boarding robot itself. It gave off a metallic scent that was breathtaking just by looking at it. The debris that the decisive weapon shed was divided into [molecular assembly] and penetrated deeply into each element.

“It’s quite luxurious. Adamant, Jinn, Orichalcon. You said there’s a keel too?”

“yes.”

“It would be a bit disappointing if it were destroyed.”

“Rather, it is an opportunity to find areas for improvement.”

“Well, you wouldn’t spill any parts.”

[Molecular assembly] is there, so what’s there to worry about? Unless the properties are completely reversed, recycling is easy.

When he went back up to the first floor, this time Shiva greeted Allen.

“Brother, you’ve come up just in time. Do you remember Frey?”

“yes.”

Frey was a child suffering from hypermania. Allan had taught him was how to calm his magic. As a child and a sufferer of hypermania, that was enough for Frey.

“I met Brother Allen today and he called me ‘teacher.’”

“yes?”

“And my brother’s prediction was broken. Instead of twice a month, he runs once a week without fail.”

“That’s interesting.”

Automatons and magic tools do not go far beyond the realm of calculation, but people are different. That is why they have always been good subjects for exploration.

“I brought the diagnostic data, would you like to see it?”

“I’m still doing that.”

Alan gave Frey a few dinosaur-shaped automatons as toys and data collectors.

“No test subjects allowed.”

“This is for confirmation purposes only. And the Titan will be ready for control soon.”

“Thanks to you, brother, I’ve gotten to see a Titan. I thought something like that would never happen in my life.”

The Labyrinth Exploration Party either did not take Titans or only used them when they were really needed. It was hard to find a dimensional backpack to store the Titans in, and the terrible magic consumption and difficulty of maintenance also played a big part.

Alan sat on the sofa and controlled the pterosaur toy he had given Frey. The child was lying on the bed looking out the window. Porr flew over and landed on the windowsill.

“uh···?”

[hi.]

“Are you a teacher?”

Hearing the word teacher, something felt a bit strange. Alan ignored him and taught Frey a few things. The basics of magic engineering sounded stiff even to adults, but Frey focused with shining eyes.

Even with the brainpower of an average hyperactive child, she’s still only six years old. Alan stopped the lesson when he noticed Frey’s eyes were spinning.

“Are you coming again?”

[When the time comes.]

“yes!”

Even with the faint promise, Frey liked it. Looking at her, Alan thought back to his childhood. He would be happy to find just one book while searching through a mountain of trash.

However, it was difficult to tell everything. Hypermania was like a sensitive plant that would die if it was cold, if it was exposed to a little wind, if it was given too much water, or if it was given nutrients.

Alan went down to the basement, waiting for the next one. This time he stayed longer. When he came back up, he turned off the lights in the basement laboratory completely.

Alan went to the outskirts of Maze City with Taylor and Shiva. They released two Titans into the wilderness. The black-painted steel giants radiated an imposing presence.

The weapon-laden fuselage was 10 meters tall, while the heavily armored fuselage was 8 meters tall. It was built to match the body proportions of its occupants, so from a distance it would look like a human or a dwarf.

“I’m finally getting to ride it.”

Taylor’s eyes lit up and he jumped into the open cockpit. Shiva gave him a worried look.

“Brother, you didn’t explain how to control it.”

“Please board first.”

Shiva stepped onto the glove and entered the cockpit.

“Ugh! There are so many buttons!”

“Just connect it.”

There was a button, but since it was connected to a brain extension device and could be controlled with thoughts, it was convenient to think of it as decoration. While Shiva was sleeping, Taylor, who showed an excellent assimilation rate to any magic wear, ran wild in the wilderness.

[This is so funny.]

[Eww!]

[Even Shiva is happy.]

Taylor’s Titan strode towards Alan, knelt down and opened the cockpit.

“Want to spar with Shiva?”

“I have made a separate appointment.”

“With who?”

“Iron Fist 2nd Division team.”

Iron Fist. The name of the fighting tournament where Titans compete, and the fights between the giants were popular because there was something heart-warming about them.

The first part was a national competition, and the second part was a domestic league. And from the second part onwards, they were not inferior to the military titans.

“I thought you were going to experiment in the labyrinth, but you applied to be my sparring partner.”

“If a problem arises, it is difficult to fix it right away.”

“That’s true. It’s easier to solve anything on land where there’s abundant infrastructure. But how did you make a sparring appointment? I know your skills, but you’re unknown to them.”

“I logged onto their community and pointed out the shortcomings of the aircraft and its controls.”

Unlike the attention-seeking seed, the facts that Alan spits out hit the hearts of the second team very painfully.

“But you must have a lot of pride. Would you admit it easily?”

If they had chosen a different country instead of the 2nd division Soldos, they would have won the championship trophy several times. The level of the 2nd division Soldos was so high that it was often said that the 1st division, the national team competition, was easier.

Taylor spotted a gust of dust coming his way. A huge wing-body truck was hurtling along, crushing the dirt.

“You look quite angry.”

“So you came here to prove it.”

“I never thought I’d be able to get dizzy at this age….”

Taylor is now 69 years old, an age when she would rather be at home laughing at her grandchildren’s antics than being a squealer.

A truck with a cat wrapped around lightning stopped. A crowd of people wearing thundercats swarmed out. A man with a shaved head and a leather jacket like a biker gang pointed to Taylor.

“No, was it an old man?”

“Are you dissatisfied?”

“The old man was so spicy···.”

Taylor stared at Alan, who was just using dark sentences floating around in the universe.

“Let’s see if your skills are as good as your speaking skills.”

The man made exaggerated gestures and then walked towards the truck with heavy steps.

[Why is it like that?]

[It’s also for the purpose of promoting it on a video platform.]

[Wait, you’re filming us?]

[If I lose badly, I’ll delete it, and if I win, I’ll edit it and upload it.]

[Are you okay with being photographed?]

[I’ve drawn a magic circle that blocks perception. Can you see the shaking?]

[somehow···.]

Their eyes and camera equipment output different scenes. There was an uproar because of the discrepancy.

Anyway, the other party also finished preparing. Thundercat, a Titan with blue lightning, stood in front of Taylor.

[How long are you going to keep those weapons?]

[Why is this?]

[Don’t you know that Iron Fist is based on close combat? These days, hospitals are good. Why don’t you get a brain test? If not, I’ll admit you, so don’t worry.]

[This kid···.]

The fierce conversation was a kind of performance, but Taylor reacted sincerely. The weapons that Alan had given her fell to the floor with a thud.

The now lightened Titan leaped forward. It ran a distance of several tens of meters in one breath and extended its fist at full speed.

Boom!

Thundercat raised his arm to block the punch. The terrifying roar of the giant’s body echoed through the wilderness.
