Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 166

Floating island colony (3) As

soon as Lennok picked the flowers, he stretched out his hand toward the seedling next to him without hesitation.

Two, three, four, five… … . It took less than five minutes for Lennok to have over 30 flowers in his hands in an instant, without a single failure.

Weizen stuttered and reached out his hand at a sight that was incomprehensible to common sense.

“… … Now hold on. This… … .”

“Your mana handling skills are amazing… … ! Out of all the friends I’ve seen lately, he’s by far the most overwhelming.”

The old man who had been explaining things to the sorcerers earlier was looking down on the two of them.

Did he even patrol the area?

The old man’s expression softened as he looked at Lennok in an instant.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a flower that maintains its vitality even after falling from a living tree. A young friend learned very well. Would you like to work on my farm for one more day?”

Lennok answered when he straightened his back and stood up.

“it’s okay. There are several other places to stop by besides here.”

“Don’t do that… … If you have that level of skill, you won’t have to go anywhere bending over.”

The eyes of the old man rubbing his palms together greedily shone.

“If you do just two favors of this old lady, I could show you the seed of my trump… … Are you interested?”

“… … .”

Lennok didn’t answer and met the old man’s gaze.

Weizen was looking at the two anxiously with an annoyed face.

After a moment of silence, Lennok smiled and shook his head.

“sorry. I don’t think it’s going to be hard to stay for a long time because of the busy schedule.”

“… … okay? Then there is nothing you can do It’s a pity. I wanted to show a rare item that came in recently to someone as talented as you.”

“You mean something valuable?”

“okay. Recently, thanks to the people who support the Dominion, we have been able to freely obtain rare seeds.”

It’s sponsored… … It was not strange that there were people who supported the plant beyond using the floating island colony.

If it’s that valuable, it’s okay to take a look at it, but… … Lennok was taken aback by the old man’s gaze and eventually refused.

He is not accustomed to hiding his true feelings.

When a person like that says something meaningful openly, it’s usually most of the back.

I never thought of doing freelance work until now.

When Lennok turned around and refused, the old man smacked his lips with a look of regret.

“Well, it’s okay to say you’re not sorry. If you think of it later, let me hear it one more time.”

“great. For now, let’s finish today’s work with this.”

The old man nodded as he handed out a handful of flowers from wild trees harvested by Lennok.

“good. come follow me I will prepare a sample suitable for you right away.”

Weizen, who had been watching it blankly from the side, hurriedly held out the flower he was holding in his hand and said,

“Ho maybe!! Can I have a look at those seeds?”

“hmm? What did I just say?”

“… … .”

Weizen was speechless at the brazen attitude of the old man holding out his flippers in front of him.

The old man looked down at Weizen with a cold gaze, then turned his back to the other side of the plant with a snort.

“He was like a parasite… … . It’s a pity, but I like talented guys. You will have to work a little harder to please me.”

Weizen stared blankly at the back of the old man as he walked away, then bit his teeth.

Lennok ignored the figure and immediately moved on.

On the way back to the accommodation after purchasing a sample of basilis mushroom from the plant.

The sunset has already set on the other side of the sea and the sky has been dark for a long time.

I got on the wing boat stored in the settlement that exists on each floating island and took the steering wheel.

The island on which Lennok had lodged lay more than two hundred meters down here.

A quiet means of transportation that does not hear any noise from the engine on until the moment it floats up into the sky.

While using the wingboat for the past few days, Lennok has been thinking more about the updrafts surrounding the Dominion of Philenom.

There are many questionable parts in this updraft to say that it simply gives buoyancy to a magical object.

Although this is possible only in a limited environment, this overwhelming efficiency that allows you to obtain a powerful floating ability without consuming almost no horse power.

Rather than a natural phenomenon that existed from the beginning, isn’t it a convenient environment as if it were created for those who live on a floating island?

Are the countless floating islands floating in the sea of understanding really holding onto their positions due to this unknown updraft?

If these gigantic islands are being lifted up with only a small amount of magic mixed in the ground of the floating islands, is there something special endowed with the sea of understanding?

If not, was it the intention of the ascendant who built a lighthouse here to observe the open sea?

“… … .”

Lennok was well aware that the Ascendants were transcendental beings who had thrown off the shackles of life, but he couldn’t judge how much power they possessed.

Monsters who challenge fate by putting restrictions on themselves in order to ascend to heaven even after seizing mighty power.

If they exert their full strength, would it be possible to change the entire physical laws of the area semi-permanently?

The impossibility of declaring that absurd feat impossible was the character of the Ascendants.

Challengers who transcend humanity. Although they say they do not go out in the world, the fact that no one dares to spit out their names proves their feat on the contrary.

If you follow the end of this invisible road, will you be able to reach them someday?

Though he thought he had gone through many moments, Lennok still couldn’t convince himself.

“Whoa… … .”

Let’s stop thinking complicated.

Once I got the things I wanted at the plant, selling my feet here and there was roughly finished.

From now on, I’ll have to start exploring in earnest and the promise I’ve been putting off.

Lennok thought so and slowly turned the steering wheel of the wingboat downward.

The moment you gently descend into the clouds and try to go down.

Right beside it, two wingboats emerged through the thick fog.

Whoop-!

“Where are you going in such a hurry?”

Weizen smiling single-mindedly and a young wizard with a vague impression.

Lennok shook his head as he watched the two silently block the road.

As if Lennok’s reaction didn’t even catch his eye, Weizen smiled and turned the steering wheel leisurely.

“The good thing about wing boats is right here. No matter how much I move, there is no sign of anything, including sound.”

“… … .”

“Every sound is drowned out by the wind that blows from that beautiful sea. In other words, it is possible to follow anyone as long as the driver’s own horse power and life response are hidden.”

While saying that, Weizen waved something he was holding in his hand.

Lennok clicked his tongue as he realized the artifact was in the form of a rather familiar amulet.

An artifact using the Druid’s natural magic formula.

Didn’t Lennok get it from Mila and use it a few times during the subjugation of the pollutants?

The number of uses is limited and it has the disadvantage that the caster must not move for more than a certain amount of time, but

if the tricky conditions are met, it is an object with excellent performance in melting into the surrounding landscape enough to confuse even Lennok’s senses for a while.

‘But in the end, it’s a talisman that doesn’t help with surprise attacks or advance attacks. It must have been because the limits were clear.’

Just holding the steering wheel and following him is enough to follow him, but in the end, the moment he moves to surprise him, his stealth is broken.

In addition, there is a time limit for the talisman’s effect to last, so it must have appeared here without being able to catch up to Lennok’s quarters.

However, Weizen smiled triumphantly as if that was enough.

“In the meantime, I have been keeping my eyes on you, but now I can openly talk about my feelings.”

“How good of an artifact is the Tabard of Nyx?”

“… … .”

The smile slowly faded from Weizen’s face.

The expression on his face at the moment when all the pretense and deceit he had built up so far was removed in an instant was quite worth seeing.

He lowered his head, raised his glasses, and slowly met Lennok’s gaze.

His face, reappearing under the moonlight, showed a completely different expression of contempt.

“This lowly magic user bastard… … You played with me while knowing everything, right?”

“I rather don’t understand that one.”

Lennok smiled and said to Weizen.

“Did you really believe that I, who has an artifact that is as good as you covet, would carry around the treasure without knowing anything about it? I can’t believe I never questioned that nonsense.”

Incredibly greedy, and absurdly stupid compared to that greed.

There would be nothing good about having a prejudice against the wizard of the Mage Tower, but it was obvious what kind of environment he grew up in.

Weizen’s face contorted at Lennok’s ridicule, but he couldn’t find an excuse for himself and shouted.

“shut up!!”

Roaring!!

At the same time as he raised his mana, long flames rose from behind him, dizzying the night sky.

Considering that even in a state of loss of reason, he could pull out that much fire with a spearless spear, Weizen’s talent must be quite outstanding.

Perhaps, among wizards of that age, he had almost no rivals.

Otherwise, I couldn’t understand why he was so immature with such talent.

Weizen muttered as he glared at Lennok with glistening eyes.

“With that insignia… … I can live freely without being disturbed by anyone. I can use it much better.”

“… … .”

“I have been patient too. That’s all for words Duris Workshop’s items are unsuitable for crude magic or cooked bugs. Give it up.”

Instead of replying, Lennok took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

I don’t even get angry at this nonsensical bullshit anymore.

Rather, it was just a little surprising that I had to go through something familiar like this even after leaving Balkan.

“good.”

Lennok grinned as he puffed out smoke.

“If you want to take it, take it once.”

At the same time, he tore off the insignia and tossed it into the air, leaving Weizen’s mouth to drop open.

“You crazy bastard!! What are you doing!!”

Steering the wingboat with all my might, I leaned out to grab the badge Lennok had dropped.

The moment when the insignia was held in his outstretched hands and joy filled Weizen’s expression.

Like a lie, the insignia reappeared in Lennok’s hand.

A transfer ability using the Archangel’s compassion. It is also restored to its original form, and the existing metastasis ability is further strengthened.

Lennok smiled as he looked down at Weizen, who was staring at him blankly.

“Did you believe that? You are naive.”

“You fucking bastard!!!”

[Chang Hwa-ryeom (腸火斂)]

The long flame that Weizen threw while screaming loudly became a spear and began to catch up with Lenok.

Whoa!

While evaporating the fog rising from the bottom of the sea, it quickly heats up the surrounding air.

Instead of taking the obvious attack straight out, Lennok began to focus on getting behind the wheel and moving the wingboat around.

‘Wingboats are of little practical use in areas other than the Dominion. But with an airship of this size, the opportunity to maneuver is rare.’

There is no small airship that can move with so little horsepower anywhere.

This meant, in other words, that there weren’t many opportunities to operate a personal airship of this size outside of the Dominion.

Although it is said to borrow the power of a unique updraft, in the end, the principle of airship operation does not violate the laws of physics.

That meant that there would be no data on the airship’s high-speed maneuvers if not now.

‘What if I could complete the automatic flight magic by teaching Darby the operation data of the small airship… … Just imagining it makes my heart race.’

It’s a long way off right now, but if Lennok succeeds in creating a personal airship that could one day be used in the Balkans.

At this moment, the flight data obtained against Weizen will be of considerable help.

Lennok had no interest in dealing with the wizard right in front of him and was investing in the far future.

For a future so far away that even the person watching right next to you can’t fathom it.

“How much time can I give Dabi?”

[Data on normal flight was collected in a sufficient sample over three days. Data on high-speed flight and combat flight are predicted to be able to build an algorithm in about 2 minutes in this state.]

“Okay. Let’s do our best until then.”

Lennok swung the steering wheel in the complete opposite direction.

“Because I think I can roughly follow along if I look a little more.”

Tobacco in his mouth. The flame burning at the end shimmered with a strange light.
