Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 367
The one who wakes up (4)
koo-gu-gu-gu!!!
Soon after, the water that had risen to the feet of the two people splashed in all directions, and the ground began to shake violently.
Lennok, whose complexion was hardened by the high density of magic power that instantly covered everything, took a step back.
“Crazy… … . This is the closest place to Jindun’s image. It wouldn’t be strange if anything happened if we misdeveloped the territory.”
While Lennok and Zaun were clashing with each other, it wasn’t for nothing that they didn’t use the territory.
It may not matter outside the third gateway, but this white space must be one of the closest places to the cradle of Jindun.
Even in this labyrinth created with the image of an ascendant, it is the densest and most important simcheo.
Even if Jindun had no intention of doing so, the very act of projecting his images into this space is the same as exposing the realm to him.
Because they had guessed that to some extent, both Lennok and Zaun did their best in this spot without taking out the territory.
However, the man who newly took over Zaun’s body was calmly expanding his territory in front of Lennok’s eyes, as if none of that had anything to do with it.
Doo doo doo!!
The man who stood calmly on the shaky ground laughed.
“Well, if my partner didn’t uselessly waste jewels and mana fighting against you, there wouldn’t have been a need to do this.”
“… … .”
“It is said that there is nothing going on in the world, but if I use the Cheonha Stone that was prepared to replace the Spear Stone, can’t I help it?”
Dozens of jewel pillars began to rise from under the feet of the two.
Doo doo doo doo!!
“This… … !!”
The manifestation of a pillar of jewels that emits dazzling brilliance in all directions. Even at a glance, it is clear that the treasures have undergone considerable processing.
It was only then that Lennok’s complexion hardened when he realized that this was a type of magnetic field used by the man.
It’s not the typical territorial deployment that Lennok knows about.
It is not a method of projecting and overlaying one’s image on a nearby landscape, but a method of bringing out only a part of the scene in one’s image into reality.
In a way that Lennok had never seen with any wizard he had ever seen.
Lenok quickly looked around and nodded his head after grasping the method the man used to develop the magnetic field.
“Is it a method of eroding reality rather than overlaying images on reality? Certainly, with this method, you can use the area without being affected by Jindun’s power.”
“You’re too quick to notice.”
The man smiled and nodded.
“In the era I lived in, it was a technology that was firmly established as one of the methods of projecting images, but it seems to have been practiced in this era.”
“… … .”
“It’s not like they forgot about the succession of the magic formula, and it’s probably because it was judged to have no practical value. In other words, it’s a pretty old-fashioned development.”
Certainly, the erosion-type area development method itself used by the man was fresh and surprising, but it is true that there are questions about its practicality.
For a caster to develop a magnetic domain is, in fact, a sentence that will use one’s own power to crush the opponent.
As such, the amount of mana and mental power consumed in developing the realm is considerable.
Bringing out one’s image outside itself is a task that consumes a great deal of mental strength, regardless of scale and scope.
However, what is the reason to use only a part of the area instead of paying that much cost and deploying the area in an environment favorable to the caster?
“Is this the method of the days when the method of using the magnetic domain was not established as one? The fact that you say that is proof that you are an ancient person.”
“I was an old acquaintance of Zeigis, and before I died I gave him several of my creations.”
the man said
“Many things have happened, but I want them back anyway. That is all I want.”
“… … .”
“I have no desire to fight or compete with you. So why don’t we forget the grudge we just had and work together for each other’s purposes?”
The figure of a man putting his hand on a jewel pillar while glancing at Lennok.
In line with that simple movement, cracks form on the surface of the jewel pillar and holes begin to appear.
It was a landscape that was very similar to the avalanche stone area lying all the way behind the two of them.
Instead of answering the man’s words, Lennok nodded, realizing why the man had chosen Zaun to enter the labyrinth.
“Right… … . Changyoseok is also a type of jewel. Was there a way to open the cradle in a different way using his jewelry technique?”
“You are too quick to notice. Well, what do you need to hide now?”
The man laughed bitterly.
“Originally, in order to awaken Jindun from his slumber, you have to find a buoy on the border of this space and change the direction of the spear stone. Because the song that flows through the window stone is a lullaby that puts the ascendant to sleep.”
Is that why this space is called the cradle of the ascendant?
Without waiting for Lennok’s answer, the man continued.
“However, with my knowledge and my partner’s jewelery formula, I can artificially replace the bluestone and change the lullaby’s rhythm. The fastest way to wake up Jindun is in my hands.”
“… … .”
The man glanced back at the troubled Lennok and continued talking.
“It wasn’t just the two of us that came into this space together. Wouldn’t it be better to get inside the cradle as soon as possible before Maija Lenslet moves?”
That gentle persuasion made Lennox laugh impatiently.
“If you wanted to say that, you should have told me the moment you first contacted me in the labyrinth. What’s the point of coming all the way here and saying that?”
“I am not lying. Until now, to respect my partner’s wishes… … .”
“no. I think I can understand why you want to send me to Jindun first.”
said Lennok, interrupting the man.
“Zaun said your grudges were imprisoned in a giant jewel. You weren’t dead, you were just putting off your death for a while. Didn’t he come back to the labyrinth to get a new body with the person who discovered him as his collaborator?”
“… … .”
“If you think about what you need the most as a parasite of Zaun, the answer is simple.”
Lennok laughed at the silent man.
“If you really are the originator of the ceremony, then you don’t have to meet Jindun first, so that can explain why you said you would open the way to the cradle.”
Lennok said, trying not to lose even the slightest hint of the man’s expression.
“You are waiting for the moment after Jindun dies, not Jindun himself… … . Do you intend to claim the body of an ascendant?”
Either way is fine. The moment when Jindun is alive and focusing on the conversation with Lennok, or the situation where only his body is left after he is already dead.
Either way, they must have judged that there would be no problem in taking over the ascendant’s body.
Considering the risk of the ritual before Lenok knew, it is also possible to explain why he had parasitized Zaun’s body for a few opportunities.
“… … .”
There was no answer.
The man with his head bowed slowly raised his gaze after a long time.
The gentle smile on the man’s lips turned cold before he knew it.
“Whoops… … Looks like you talked too much to pass the time. Did you guess that far with just a few words of conversation?”
The man glared at Lennok and murmured as he infused magic into the jewel pillar.
“It seems that young people these days are too quick-witted.”
Aaaaaaang!!
There was no further answer.
The electric light Lennok had thrown into the air exploded dozens of times and began to drop lightning bolts on the man’s head in succession.
Doo doo doo!!
With the enormous heat and flash, the whole body and both eyes are burning hot as if they are on fire.
The lightning that came out as naturally as breathing struck the man’s body once more without hesitation and whipped his mind and body, which had not yet recovered from the aftermath of the battle.
Each time a pillar of light that sparkles in blue bursts through the pillars of jewels while twisting and bending dozens of times.
Due to the previous battle with Zaun, Lennok also joined the conversation to recover his magic, but there is no time to hesitate here.
Before he can use this erosion-type area to avoid a predicament, he needs to step on the bud and move to the cradle here.
However, the man also began to receive all the lightning bolts from Lennok as he rotated his mana back and forth between the jewel pillars.
Tatatatatatang!!
The magic formula is activated just by wrapping the jewel pillar and rotating the magic power. Powerful barriers and barriers rise around the man, protecting his body from the firepower of thunderbolts.
It is unbelievable that the main body is a black magician, so skillful use of jewelery techniques.
However, instead of being surprised by the sight, Lennok immediately began preparing for the next attack.
A nogoe that has survived beyond hundreds of years.
Even so, if you are a black magician who has reached a high level, you must have some knowledge of completely different types of spells.
Not to mention, the man must have been parasitic in Zaun’s body and watched the process of how he used the jewelry technique for a long time.
It wouldn’t be strange if he now possessed the jeweler’s body and displayed magical powers comparable to Zaun’s.
‘But there is no counterattack.’
Even so, he had no intention of letting the figure of a man crouching among the pillars of jewels stand still.
Lennok wouldn’t be able to do crazy things to get into the zone between the pillars with this tired body, but I couldn’t let him prepare something nicely.
‘Am I waiting for a turnaround… … . then.’
With that thought in mind, in the shadows covered by the flash of light, the moment I slowly began to make hand signs.
“Do you know why the jeweler’s magnetic realm is made up of this landscape?”
The man surrounded by dozens of pillars of brilliant jewels asked.
He calmly touched the pillar standing next to him and continued talking.
“These jewel pillars are not something that spring forth whenever the sorcerer wishes, without any resources or cost. The imagery of jewelery, which uses jewels as consumables and crosses the lineage, can’t be that convenient.”
Lennok didn’t answer that question anymore.
I just lightly stepped on the rippling water beneath my feet and created a huge wave.
Fuhuaaaaaa!!
The waves rushing in as if sweeping between the jewel pillars press down on the man’s head, but the real target is the shadow created by the waves.
Manipulating the shadows that change in real time, it pierces the man’s vitals and suffocates the body at once.
Kagagak!!
The moment the shadow hidden between the waves twists and turns with a sharp blade at the man’s feet.
“The jeweler’s magnetic realm, this beautiful pillar of gems… … It is the materialization of the magician’s own feelings and thoughts.”
I grabbed the jewel pillar that the man was stroking.
“If we could materialize the joy, sadness, hatred, obsession, regret, and lingering feelings humans were born with and use them as catalysts for magic… … .”
Aaaaaaa!!
At the same time as the jewel pillar shone brightly, the corners of the man’s mouth were torn.
“Can we really call that a human?”
At that moment, a large wave fell between the jewel pillars, and immediately after, the blade of the shadow pierced the place where the man was.
Aaaaaaa!!
The scenery of the magnetic realm that was swept away by the waves and disappeared without a trace.
But it wasn’t because of the destruction caused by the water-type magic that Lennok used.
The area that should not have moved from the deployed spot moved several tens of meters along with the man’s body, avoiding all of Lennok’s attacks.
“Region move… … . Did you just push it with force? You used a whole pillar of jewels and pressed the ground with output… … !”
“I’ve said it before, but it’s not a lie to say I have no intention of fighting you.”
According to the man’s words, it is a technique that activates by consuming an entire emotion that exists in Zaun’s image.
Instead of fighting back in exchange for one of the vital human emotional centers, it had just been used to evade Lennok’s attack.
No matter what, he is also a black magician who does not choose any means or methods to achieve his goal.
“There is no need to come here and argue. My old friend will meet everyone who has made it this far at least once.”
The man who had moved the eroded magnetic field several tens of meters turned to Lennok.
The place where he newly appeared was in the middle of the Pillar Zone where a stone pillar made of spearstone was built.
The heterogeneous space created by the jumble of stone pillars and jewel pillars.
But as soon as Lennok saw the sight, he realized that the man had been planning this from the beginning.
The reason why he called only a part of the jewel pillar in the form of eroding reality instead of projecting the image with full force.
That was the idea of moving the entire scene of the realm to the middle of the avalanche stone pillar zone.
Woooooooooo!!!
As the jewel pillars trembled, the incandescent stone pillars that stood between them began to vibrate as well.
The moment when the melody that had been resounding without rest slowly changed and echoed overhead.
As if it were a key, the space filled with water mist gradually cleared and the landscape beyond it appeared.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa… … !!
A huge white palace floating on a white lake.
Lennok opened his mouth slightly at the sight of the huge house site with an impressive antique design and huge wooden pillars.
The scenery of the palace that is truly grandiose. The magical power flowing from it is at a level that is not lacking enough to be called a comrade in the sky.
A transcendental person who transcended the limits of life and death. A world of thought created by a dreamer who was truly qualified to challenge the ascension.
At last, the cradle of the Ascendant, the deepest part of the Labyrinth of Hanghasa, appeared before Lennok’s eyes.
