Kouchuugun Shikan Boukensha ni Naru - Ch. 52.1

Chapter 45, Page 4. Iris says that the ship cannot reproduce the coins created by the artifacts.
And she also shows the Adventurer Guild's communication device, which is a quantum entanglement device, that is capable of transmitting and receiving gravitic and electromagnetic waves.
Chapter 45, Page 4

Do you know in which chapter did they discuss the metal replicator that the Prime Minister had?

The problem with current arc is not WHAT is going on, but HOW it is going. Everything has been shoved in too quickly and not given time to settle. Things like this should be introduced slowly with a dripfeed, not unceremoniously dumped in during an "exciting action climax." It's all just boring, and I'm finding it hard to care about any of it.

Chapter 42, Page 20, is when it's first mentioned that the capital city criminals have significant loot.
Chapter 48.1 is where it is revealed that the Prime Minister has a hidden Guinea Alchemint.
Though if you go back to earlier chapters like Chapter 10, and the bandit subjugation ones, you do start to see a bit of a discrepancy between how the bandits live, and how they have literal chests full of coins.

 

[Shuzuchi]

But the planet did already have space technology, even better than the Empire’s. Did you miss the Adventurer’s Guild using a quantum entanglement communication network, or the continent using metal replicators that are better than the ship’s own fabbers?
The intrigue was even based on the Prime Minister having a secret metal replicator that he is using to create counterfeit coins and laundering them through bandit groups.

And did you forget that Alan isn’t some supersoldier, but a tech officer that regularly loses against Sharon and Selena, who only have downloaded combat skills.

Yeah, there's some slowly unfolding mystery about a world heritage on par with the Space Empire we're aware of. Maybe this was a special ops planet to breed weirdos, who knows.

 

[ScireNavw]

I expecting total annihilation via long range weapon. What happen to that defensive cannon on fortress anyway?

 

[Tds-PdV]

It may makes sense as a story spectacle, but come on (!), a space age army protocol cannot involve a melee duel for the army commander….

Even if they want “proof of victory” they could just bombard them with long range weaponary or with rifles till they’re shattered before finishing off / capturing the enemy commander.

This chapter felt like a 60 second short on YouTube.

My Padawan is all grown up.

The fight scene kinda makes it look like she is floating around for half of it. Galactic Empire really seems to love jumping attacks.

 

[Madologist]

I get we ran out of source material, but this feels not just like winging it, but a total rehash.. I can't say I'm liking this new direction at all..

Game of thrones all over again.

Well, yeah. Swordsmanship wasn’t part of the Imperial Army boot camp training suite, it was copied from video games.

Iris dated the Artifacts to being even older than the Galactic Human Empire.
If we take that with the known existence of other humans in the galaxy (something from the earliest chapters), and combine it with how the Goddess talked to Alan (that there were conditions that had to be reached before she could communicate, that she was "just doing an access test", and she created a backdoor cyber interface inside of Alan), I think it's more likely that the Spy isn't an Imperial, but rather a native who the Goddess chose because of compatibility to create her own nanom and uploaded all of Alan's memories about the Empire, its technology, and his combat skills that she downloaded during their last interaction.

Readers had theorized that the Goddess is actually a super-advanced AI, and I think that she might be one from the Precursors that came before the Empire.

Or after, wouldn't be the first time a warp drive malfunction sent someone to a different time. He could be seeing the civilization built upon the ruins of his own Space Empire, ended long after he went missing, or one of the other ships in his fleet may have crashed on this planet millions of years before he did, and the advancements are things they produced before their civilization came to an end....

 

[Vengeance22]

Mentioned this before in the previous chapter, but there seems to be some disconnect with the new (probably) set of people within LHT working on this. Already established naming standards are not adhered to, not to mention some misses in grammar is kind of jarring. I appreciate the work and happy this getting releases in a timely manner now, but I hope things can straightened out in the quality department.

Yeah, worst part is they don't even listen to comments on their own site elaborating this fault...

Iris did compare the positions of stars with the known stellar maps and did come up with an estimation of how long it would take for the Empire and the Bugs to reach Aless. If the Iris Conrad had been sent that far into the future, then I think she would have noticed the stellar drift.
Though, an Imperial ship getting sent into the past is still possible, I suppose.

Ah yes, of course, the onomatopoeia for when a metallic shield hits the ground: BRAT.

🤣

Probably used MTL to get this out there. They should change the translation tool they're using.

The name is コリント in the raws, so "Collins" doesn't make any sense regardless if it's been MTL'ed (it should've been コリンス in the raws for that to work). Furthermore - and to make things worse - the dictionary translates コリント as "Corinth," so even MTL would've gotten it correct, lol.

On the bright side, as least LHT's releases for this series have been readable. I've pretty much dropped Isekai Kenkokuki because the translation is painful to read.
