Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 179
Vault search (5)
Grisha let out a sigh at the bizarre scenery unfolding before his eyes.
“Yeah, based on common sense, there’s no way we weren’t prepared for this kind of operation… … .”
“Let’s go simply.”
Raising his mana, Lennok immediately stamped his foot.
The shock wave extending from the tip of his toe hit the iron door and trembled, and the man’s body, split in two, bounced forward.
At the same time, Lennok and Grisha distanced themselves from each other and used different techniques.
The bodies of the two men who rushed naked were hit and exploded defenselessly, but then began to regenerate in an instant.
Truly unusual resilience.
Including his unique dull intellect, it was already too much to call him a human.
“Oh, if you’re not going to eat… … Stay dead… … !!”
The stuttering man raises his skinny arm and swings his fist.
An ordinary punch that does not feel any magic power.
Grisha snorted, but his complexion changed completely when he heard the pangong sound from the man’s fist.
Aaaaaaang!!
The intense shockwave from the man’s fist shattered the ceiling of the museum and exposed the sky.
“What crazy power… … !! With that kind of strength, it would have been impossible to go unnoticed all these years!!”
Grisha muttered that with a slightly surprised face, and immediately realized the correct answer.
“No, someone can adjust the output from the outside. It must be someone’s hand-made work from start to finish… … !!”
“Exactly.”
As Lennok replied, he looked at the man’s double body running towards him.
Perhaps because of the monstrous force radiating from the double body clenched in both fists, shockwaves continuously burst out from the floor and accelerated.
A speed so fast that it is invisible to the naked eye.
But instead of avoiding it, Lennok quickly reached inside the court.
As the black collar fluttered, the relic archangel’s compassion flashed for a moment.
The moment Darby, who appeared at the same time, manipulated the light precisely and hit the man.
Like a lie, the man’s body disappeared and crashed into the iron door of the exhibition hall located in the opposite direction.
Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!
At the same time as the man’s body was crushed by the iron door, Lennok smiled faintly as he saw the door wide open, unable to overcome the force.
I stabbed it just in case, but it was a harvest that exceeded my expectations.
Since we succeeded in overpowering him and opening that solid iron door at the same time, it would not be enough to call it a win-win.
While Lennok used his remaining magic power to completely subdue the man, Grisha quickly finished his work and approached Lennok.
“So why don’t you explain a little bit now?”
As she stamped her feet with a frown on her face, the man’s head beneath her shook pathetically.
At some point, the man’s limbs were tightly bound with strange green rings, unable to move.
Grisha, too, immediately saw through the man’s abnormal regenerative ability and realized that it was easier to subdue him and leave him alone than to kill him.
“What is this monster bastard really like and why did that door open so easily?”
“… … .”
“If it was the character of the drug lord I know, it would never have been this easy… … .”
“Simple.”
As Lennok said, he slowly grabbed and lifted the fallen man with his head in front of the door.
“Because this is not human, much less life.”
That’s why Lennok used the transference formula contained in the Archangel’s Compassion to transfer the man who ran into him, and threw him into the iron gate.
Because he finally realized the identity of the deja vu flowing through his head.
“This is a homunculus.”
Artificial life created by sorcerers who were immersed in research to create gold in the past.
It is the work of alchemists now forgotten in this world.
“A homunculus?”
Grisha asked with a puzzled expression.
“I am hearing it for the first time. What kind of spell is that word used in?”
“hmm… … .”
Lennok tried to explain right away, but paused when he realized that now was not the time.
Convincing Grisha of the alchemy he knew might take a little longer.
Because the alchemy he knew was the name of a forbidden technique that existed in World 1.0.
That’s why Lennok, who doesn’t easily forget magic or spells he’s seen once, couldn’t recall them properly when he saw the flow right in front of him, and felt only a sense of deja vu.
That memory was not a memory after waking up as Lenoc, but rather a skill he remembered over the monitor.
“It is difficult to explain here. We’ll talk about it once we’re done.”
Lennok evaded it and pushed himself into the safe.
Alchemy was an unfortunate combination technique that existed in WORLD 1.0 but was deleted in 2.0 through later updates.
At the time, it was not very popular because it had an overly complicated structure in terms of game balance and was
too inaccessible.
Nevertheless, the reason why Lennok still remembers the name and skill composition is that it was only towards the end of 1.0 that alchemy’s absurd efficiency began to receive attention and study.
It has a high efficiency in combining medicinal materials in a different way from the existing herbal combination method or creating subordinate creatures such as golems, so there was a public opinion belatedly regretting it among players.
“… … .”
At the time, I thought it was part of a simple game update, but what if it wasn’t a coincidence?
What if everything that existed in that world wasn’t just an illusion in a game?
Treasures of unknown origin, perhaps called ancient artifacts, are actually… … .
Lennok thought that far and shook his head vigorously.
Let’s not think deeply.
It is an idea that should never be overlooked, but now was not the time to indulge in such worries.
The important thing is that the existence of alchemy explains the many secrets of the drug lord in an understandable way.
The two sorcerers first tied the man who was split in two to the safe.
Grisha frowned as if he tried to use some magic on the fainting man’s head, but it didn’t work out as he wanted.
“… … It seems that the mental resistance is very strong. None of my spells work on that side. It’s going to be hard to hold on to for a long time.”
Since they were sorcerers on the level of Lennok and Grisha, they were only able to subdue them like this, but it was clear that they wouldn’t even react with a moderate amount of shock.
Powerful regenerative ability and strength. A monster that is impervious to mental attacks and splits according to the number of opponents.
As a gatekeeper protecting the warehouse, isn’t it too perfect power?
But when Lennok saw it, he took out another object from his bosom.
“This will be fine.”
A dagger with a twisted blade that was also used to subdue Weizen.
It contains curse spells, but it’s not a very high level.
But when Lennok stabbed the blade into the man’s body, which was split in two, the effect came quickly and dramatically.
“Turn it off… … !!”
“Uh uh… … .”
Grisha put on an absurd expression at the sight of a man convulsing while twisting his whole body at the same time as the curse spell permeated his body.
“What is this… … Mental resistance is so strong, but curse resistance is so weak?”
“Because it’s not a well-made thing. If you see that your intelligence is so low that you can’t speak properly, it’s probably the result of deliberately lowering your intelligence to raise your mental resistance.”
A homunculus is not a living creature, so it has almost no resistance to magic, which is basically a life.
In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to use high-quality materials for homunculus, but from the position of a drug lord, there is no way that a simple storage keeper can pay attention to that.
“Go in. Let’s sweep it up quickly and come out.”
Leaving the two paroxysmal homunculi alone, Lennok immediately entered the exhibition hall.
As soon as you step inside, you can feel the air change.
The drug lord decided and created the drug store, so the delicate interior, which is completely different from the primitive environment outside, caught my eye first.
The glass window, where various relics should have been displayed, is equipped with a device that controls humidity and temperature, and the floor is covered with softly treaded soil.
And on top of that soil, more than a thousand kinds of various herbs and medicinal materials were forming a mountain full of them.
Sprinklers operating regularly on the ceiling sprayed an unknown liquid to and from the medicinal herbs piled up in the hall.
Grisha, who came in after him, also burst into admiration when he saw the scenery inside.
“Very well-kept for a warehouse of psychopaths who turn humans into monsters. At this level of humidity, it’s similar to my hometown… … To my surprise, the temperature stays even.”
“He probably used all sorts of tricks and money to protect his property.”
“Televia Bynas in Cheonilgun’s White Ryeohwa Bottle Wine… … There are herbs that are hard to find even with money. If this is what I see with my eyes, the value of the items gathered here must be beyond imagination.”
Even this is just a part of his medicine warehouse spread all over the continent, so it is hard to guess how much his wealth is.
Even the wealth hidden in the shadows seemed to be enough to outperform quite a few companies.
“The only strange thing is that the drugs used as drugs are less noticeable than I thought… … Usually when I think of expensive narcotic herbs, I tend to think of things like Sanseul Kang or Cole 19, but strangely, I don’t see anything like that.”
Hearing Grisha’s muttering, Lennok quickly began to dig through the neatly piled herbs.
I heard a brief explanation from Yakseon, but it’s hard to be sure of Malabeth until I see it myself.
Grisha would probably have to find out what the ledger was, so in the end Lennok had to dig through the pile of herbs by himself, inhaling his pills.
“Whoa… … .”
After moving my body quickly for the first time in a while, my body starts to heat up.
I thought it was just digging through a pile of medicinal herbs, but the task of bending down and digging through the herbs with my hands so that they would not be damaged was more arduous than I thought.
It wouldn’t be strange if these sensitive herbs were altered after using sorcerers or magic.
I thought I had already realized enough, but I couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
No matter how hard you try to perfect yourself, sometimes there comes a moment when you realize the penalty you can’t escape.
That is why it is necessary to complete a new medicine with the help of medicinal lines.
to eventually rise higher.
In order to step into the realm of transcendent people who have escaped from humans.
He needed a way to throw off the chains that bound him, even for a moment.
‘I don’t like that the solution comes down to medicine in the end, but… … .’
There was no reason to hesitate if there was no choice.
“… … .”
Grisha, on the other hand, was looking closely at Lennok as he searched for the ledger’s existence.
“… … found.”
The five-pronged roots come together in the middle and form a flower shape at the end.
Malabeth has the nickname of a flower that grows below the ground.
A rare drug that was once treated as an indispensable treasure in the drug industry, but is now hard to find due to the development of manufacturing technology.
The sight of dozens of roots of Malabeth, which was hard to find anywhere, made Lennok’s hands tremble.
