Then, since I had come to Elixir Lapis at the last minute, I decided to look around the town. At that time, Newton-san told me something that bothered me.

"Don't leave the town. It's quite dangerous"

"...What kind of monsters are out there?"

"Ah...not a monster?"

"I'm sure it's similar..."

Dangerous things that aren't monsters? Ha!? N, No way...

"You don't mean that there are runaway machines roaming around, do you?"

""...""

Don't look away! Worldly greats there!

"Well, rest assured they won't come to town"

Do I feel safe? At any rate, I walk out of Einstein-san's lab and look at the streets of Elixir Lapis. Apparently, the town consisted of European architecture and factories.

Looking around the stores, I could see that they were focusing on medicines and items. But it was terrible.

Level-up potions?

A potion that might raise your level if you could drink it all.

It costs 150G. Can I try it? The price is so low that it seems like a good deal. But I'll make it clear...I'm not buying! Incidentally, there were other similar medicines sold that increase strength.

The items are more decent than the pills. As the shipwright said, there were a lot of magic engines, but some of them were like this.

Small Magic Engine: Important Item

A small magic engine that coughs a lot but has horsepower.

When it coughs, it has a problem...what a character of this town.

In case you're wondering, just walking around town, you can hear explosions coming from everywhere. I asked a shopkeeper.

"It's probably someone experimenting or inventing something that's going wrong. It happens all the time in this country"

I was told that. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. I don't care.

"Older brother~!!"

"I, I can't stop~!? Guhaa!?"

I thought I heard a voice like the one I heard earlier, but it was just my imagination. Yup.

As I was going around, there was naturally something that caught my attention. That's this one.

Magic Paper-making Machine: Important Item

A machine that produces paper from wood pulp. The type of paper produced varies depending on the type of wood pulp.

Steel Ore: Rarity 6, Material, Quality C

Steel ore. A different material from steel made from iron sand. It is mainly used for weapons and machine parts. A material that is almost indispensable for magic machines.

These were purchased. I did not expect to be able to obtain a machine for manufacturing paper and the steel ore I wanted. The explanation makes sense, though. At any rate, the conditions for Ix's evolution are now in place. If I had talked to Elixir Lapis earlier, I might have been able to evolve Ix earlier.

The rest of the time, I contacted Saba Can and visited their guild. I really needed to talk to them about something.

"It's been a while"

"Takuto-san! Long time no see! Please come in"

When I visited him, I found many magic items that I had seen in town. That was enough to show their love for robots.

"What's wrong?"

"I was actually talking to Einstein and Newton earlier and they told me some interesting things. I thought I should tell you in person"

『...Huh?』

Well, that's what you get when you hear Einstein and Newton.

"First of all, do you know what an automaton is?"

"No. Is it in this world!?"

"There is. I've seen the real thing. It looked like a walking mannequin doll"

Hearing this, the people of Robot Research get excited.

And there is one more thing.

"Golems and colossuses were made by alchemists and researchers in the past"

"That means we can make them too!"

Yes. This time it totally implied it. Then I will still have to tell them.

"The alchemy guild is obvious, but you should talk to the researchers. This country is full of great people. Just the ones I've met include Edison, the Wright Brothers and Nobel"

"That's...I'll do some serious information gathering. Because if there are that many great people, there's a good chance there's something going on"

I still think so...I'll give a shout out to the guys at Robot Research and head back to Liebling.

After that, I head to the battleship and do Ix´s evolution.

First, I make an amor heart. Put in an amor core and steel ore to create the amor heart.

Amor Heart: Exclusive item for Ex Machina

Evolutionary item for ex machina. It can evolve into Amor Ex Machina.

Then, replace the core of Ix with Amor Heart. Before that, I will check.

"...Are you ready?"

"Yes. I heard Master's resolution earlier. Then I will only answer Master's determination. Please do so. My Master"

I remove the core of Ix and insert the amor heart. Then the core entrance closes and evolution begins.

Ix will glow, the body will grow, the armaments will change, the evolution will end and the info will come.

『Ix has evolved into Amor Ex Machina. Limiter release acquired』

『Analysis skill has evolved to detail analysis』

『Arithmetic acquired』

『Action Prediction acquired』

Then Ix wakes up.

"...Ix?"

"Evolution complete. Master"

The evolved Ix did not have hair growth like Lily and her friends, but mecha parts were added to her legs and hands. Status.

What looks bad is the limiter release. Even the firepower of Ex Machina is high. This skill is going to make it even more powerful.

"Master, I'd like a duel, please. I want to test my evolved strength"

"I agree. The power of the evolved Ix, show me"

"Yes. Master"

The result was a ragged loss using Scarlet Ring. This is a terrible strength.

First, the action prediction. All my movements were read. Even if I teleported, she aimed at that spot and shot at me. Even if I accelerated, she still aimed and shot. Moreover, feints were no longer caught and there was nothing I could do if she read all of my attacks.

Further arithmetic processing. Now Ix could ricochet. Moreover, a ricochet of unmatched accuracy came flying. Already...it is impossible to even escape...the energy gun reflected at the point of escape is flying from front and back, left and right, up and down.

It has nothing to do with the battle, but she was given the ability to analyze the details. Apparently, although the range is limited, it is now possible to know terrain data and analyze the enemy's abilities. It seems that the difference in level makes it difficult to analyze the abilities of the enemy.

Finally, there is a limiter release. This is a skill that can increase the firepower of a weapon far more than usual by removing the weapon's limiter. However, the cost is the destruction of the weapon. This is not an easy skill to use. Unlike Lily's trump card, it is a skill that can be used as long as there is energy, but if you do this, you will be financially ruined at once. It is a terrible skill, for better or worse.

From the above, I get the feeling that Ix saw all of this coming before she even started fighting. After being completely outclassed, I remembered. Ex Machina once boasted enough power to annihilate all living things in this world. I think I've just experienced a small part of that power.

Terrain data, enemy positions, enemy actions and enemy data are all exposed and on top of that, powerful weapons and accurate shooting. I definitely don't want to make an enemy.

"Master should still be able to fight"

I stayed with the training until Ix's energy ran out. I thought that Ix was a genius at stopping her training before it ran out. I was glad that I had learned the feeling of agility. I restored Ix's magic and logged out.
