「Then please look after the base, Lieutenant Colonel Miller」(TLN: Commander was the navy term that i accidentally used, Lieutenant Colonel is the army and correct one)
「Please leave it to me!」
When there is no Chitose or Kazuya occupying the outpost, LTC Miller would be in command.
Kazuya then issued the order to advance into the secret underground tunnel.
「Let’s depart」
「All vehicles, forward!!」
The engines of the vehicles groan loudly. In total there was 18 cars in the convoy. 4 Motorcycles with sidecars, 3 M8 tanks, 3 Armed jeeps (M20 75mm recoilless rifle and the M2 Browning were equipped) as well as 8 trucks filled with soldiers and supplies.
Chitose had organised it so that the total number of soldiers in the convoy equalled 60.
At the end of the underground passage, there seemed to be a dead end. However, suddenly the rock face splits open and reveals an elevator, which raises the vehicles to the surface.
When was Kazuya finished being raised above ground, he found was facing a well maintained highway in the Canary kingdom.
「Stick close. We only have limited knowledge about this world, we don’t want to cause and unnecessary fights」
『『『『Roger!』』』』
「Onward!!」
On the orders of Kazuya, the convoy advances on the nearest city.
「Master, is it okay to use these vehicles? The main method of transportation in this world is a carriage. Won’t we stand out too much?」
「Well, there is no other way. As well as bringing 60 soldiers, we also have ammunition, medical supplies and food. It is more efficient to use a vehicle. My ability can also allow me to summon carriages, however they won’t offer much protection during battle and i can’t summon when i’m in combat. Because of that, it is safer to travel by car」
「I see, i thought that was why….」
「If someone asks, just say it is a magic item. We’re going to be using modern weapons, so we’ll stand out anyway」
After hearing the explanation from Kazuya, Chitose promptly takes out her walkie talkie as a report had just come in.
「…..Ah, understood. Master, the B-29’s report that three wagons are currently under attack from monsters. How should we proceed?」(TLN: B-29’s are bomber planes also known as flying fortresses)
Chitose asks Kazuya whilst pointing out the incident site on a map.
「….ah….abandoning them would leave a bad taste. Chitose, pass me the walkie talkie」
「By all means」
「Kazuya to all vehicles, a wagon is currently under attack from monsters. Prepare for combat」
『『『『Roger!!』』』』
After returning the walkie talkie to Chitose, Kazuya also prepares for action.
In order to save the group in time, Kazuya hurries.
