Is that like a 'float box'?"
When Chika heard about amphibious vehicles, she imagined something formed by D-particles.
No, that's not it. I'm going to give the metal
'Oh, it looks like a hovercraft. But what made you think you needed a vehicle to break through the slug meadow?"
Chika did not seem to understand the need for a vehicle.
"If you try to break through the slug meadow on foot, you have to annihilate the swarms of running slugs you encounter before you can proceed. Those guys are persistent."
He explains that a vehicle is needed to shake off the running slug and proceed.
Then why don't you just use the 'Vikrama ring' to shake it off?"
It would consume a lot of magic and physical strength," he said. It would be painful to repeat it four or five times."
Alisa turns to Chika and asks.
Would Chika be able to do it?"
Chika's physical strength, trained since childhood, was considerable. I asked the question with that in mind.
I think it will be tough. Even if I could get away with using 'top speed' twice, I might run out of energy by the third or fourth time.
That vehicle, are you going to attach armor to it like Mr. Ishibashi and his team did with their improvised armored car?"
Yukari asked.
Mr. Ishibashi and his team's improvised armored vehicle is the type that uses power to bounce off running slugs and get away with it, but the one I'm planning to make is the type that uses speed to get away with it. That's why I want to make it as light as possible.
Is it speed? So you are thinking of using
Cars driving on bumpy terrain in dungeons cannot go as fast as expected because of the risk of flipping over if they go too fast.
Ishibashi probably chose the armored car because the slug meadow is a bumpy terrain and the grass is overgrown, making it even more difficult to go fast.

That ride, what are you going to name it?"
Amane suddenly asked me a question about the name. It is too early to even decide what form the vehicle will take. When I said so, Amane said it was inconvenient that the name had not been decided.
"Then we'll call it a 'hover vehicle.
Alisa nodded at the name and raised her voice.
Dr. Grimm, is there anything we can do to help?"
Alisa, you translate the grimoire with me. The other three of you will go to the Narukami dungeon and mine the white bright steel in the seventh layer."
Wow, mining again?"
Amane's mouth twitched.
If you don't like it, fine.
No, I would be happy to go."
Amane and her friends are on summer vacation, so they have time.
Wasn't Amane working on a demon-detection device?"
Chika confirmed it. When I heard this, I rolled my eyes in surprise. I had heard that the demon detection device was a rather high-end magic device that required advanced technology to make.
I was like, "Wow, that's amazing. You're able to make such advanced magical devices now?"
Amane looks troubled and waves her hand as if to say no.
I made a simple demon detector that has a very narrow detection range.
Still, it seems that there are only about two second-year students who can make a simple demon detection device. I could see that Amane was doing his best.
Today we all decided to examine the grimoires. The grimoire of grant magic seems to be different from the grimoire of life magic. In addition to the magic circle and the description, there is a magic that contains what is called a magic element.
Speaking of which, have you mastered all the magic listed in your teacher's grimoire?"
Yukari was looking at the grimoire and seemed to associate it with my grimoire.
'There was one last life magic left that could be learned at magic level 20, but I've only recently learned it.'
What kind of magic was that?"
It was a magic to purify water called "Water Purify. It is a magic that purifies a large amount of water at once, so I think it will be useful in some countries. However, it is not worth the effort if it can only be learned at the magic level of 20. I think we need to reduce the functions and lower the level of magic that can be learned."
Alisa nodded seriously.
Shouldn't the priority be on creating a degraded version of Water Purify?"
No, it's not an easy thing to create. There are parts of it that I don't understand, so I'm going to have to spend a lot of time researching those parts.
We continued our investigation of the grimoires and found that of the 32 listed, 24 were granted magic registered with the Magic Agency and 8 were unregistered.
This is certain because I checked it against the magic listed in the booklet "List of Magic" sold by the Magic Agency.
This magic called 'air compression' seems to work the same way as an air compressor, so wouldn't this give us propulsion?"
Alisa was looking at the registered description of the granted magic and came up with an idea.
I turned to Amane.
Do you know what the magic called 'Air Compression' is used for?"
"They are often used in place of fans. The effect of compressing the air is said to be of no great consequence."
The "Air Compression" page had a description, and when I read it, I found out something interesting. This magic has a magic element, and the magic element was also described.
I've never seen this magical element before.
It seems it was knowledge that had been lost for some reason. Amane shouted with delight that she had made a great discovery. I, who still did not understand the importance of the magic element, calmly thought about what it could be used for. If these elements were connected and lined up on top of the magic circuit board, they would be very powerful.
When he tells everyone about the idea, Amane's eyes light up with excitement.
Let's experiment and see."
It would require equipment, magical circuit boards, etc. I asked Amane to write out what was needed and I was to purchase it.
Since we will not have the equipment and magic substrate immediately, the plan remains the same: me and Arisa will translate the grimoires, and Amane, Chika, and Yukari will mine the white bright steel.
