Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 554
The drug-eating genius wizard episode 554
From the end of failure (1)
There was no further answer to Kaise’s determined words.
[…] … .]
A faint snort resounded and the ghost ship slowly passed through the sky of the power plant and disappeared.
At the same time, the hazy fog in the sky lifted and the clear sunlight began to come down again.
As Kaise said, they must be planning to spread their power throughout the Ramahal area to find them.
Gileon, who had approached Kaise’s shoulder as he silently gazed at the sky, supported him.
“How much serum did you draw?”
Gileon asked with a calm expression.
“As soon as I finished the work, it was too much work. You’d better rest until you feel better.”
Kaise made a slightly surprised expression at Gileon’s words, then smiled and pointed at his back.
The form of one wing completely melted while blocking Lennok’s extreme turn.
“You don’t seem to be in very good shape. Can I fly more?”
“It will be difficult.”
Gileon calmly agreed.
“However, even if only one side remains, there is no problem in assisting the manifestation of the supernatural power. You can participate in the operation without any problems.”
“Take off the broken wings and pass them over here. I’ll fix it while the research is in progress.”
“For now, the role of monitoring the surroundings of the power plant should be left to someone else… … .”
“I will take over.”
McQueen, who was watching the two with a disapproving expression, said.
Although he was wrecked from the battle with Ilya, he was still able to move his body somehow.
“McQueen. Is there a way?”
“Using my pet’s abilities, it is not difficult to expand the sensory sphere in one area.”
At Gileon’s question, McQueen looked back at the giant stone statue he had summoned.
“However, if that happens, most of the capacity of the liberation ceremony will be directed to detection. They will be of little help in battle, so take care of yourself.”
With those words, the stone statue standing behind McQueen began slowly climbing the power transmission tower.
A stone statue sitting cross-legged on the top of a power transmission tower closes its eyes with its arms stretched out in various angles wide open.
woo woo woo… … !!
At the same time, the yellow concentrate that spread around the stone statue spread out of the power plant like ripples.
The appearance of McQueen sitting under a power transmission tower with a stone statue on it and starting to concentrate.
Contrary to the fact that they do their best to monitor power plant facilities, they seem completely defenseless against outside attacks.
Behind Gileon, who was looking at McQueen, I heard Oliviera’s laughing voice.
[Paarden doesn’t have the nature to come out of a place like this.]
“… … .”
[You seem to feel indebted to you.]
“I’m sure the author wasn’t the only one who got help. As a result, the fact that one of the wings was broken was to protect you.”
[Oh, it was useless. Instead of protecting me, it would have been better to focus on inflicting a mortal wound on the wizard.]
At Gileon’s calm words, Oliveira shook her head.
[It’s been a while since I’ve faced him directly, but unlike explosive magic, the core of his body was shaking unsteadily. Maybe it would have been better to drive it in the direction of breaking the balance in close combat from the beginning… … .]
Oliveira muttering thoughtfully as she stroked her chin under the veil.
There is no emotion or even a feeling about the fact that he almost died once.
Does it have a way or trick to save life that no one knows about, or is it the attitude of a madman who welcomes it even in the face of his own death?
Gileon couldn’t understand it after all.
Kaise, who was watching the conversation between the two of them, smiled.
“Don’t think nonsense, Oliviera. You must have been injured as well, right?”
[hmm. Were you watching?]
“If you take out the magnetic field and use that much damage, it must mean that the battle was close enough.”
Casey shook his head.
“Since the serum was used on an important organ like the heart, there will be a severe backlash for a while. If you do it wrong, there may be aftereffects.”
The territory and spells built up by a magician as powerful as her boast transcendent power, but on the contrary, the reaction when destroyed and collapsed is also a great law.
Caise didn’t know how Oliviera’s domain had been overrun, but he knew that the backlash was no trivial matter to her.
Not to mention, as long as serum made from someone else’s blood is poured into organs such as the heart, Oliviera’s condition will not be perfectly fine.
It is not strange if the rejection of blood occurs rather than the decrease in recuperative power or fatigue.
Kaise winked at Gileon with cold eyes.
“There must still be an inn in good shape inside the power plant. Gileon, guide her to a place to rest.”
[No guidance required. You’re thinking of choosing the time and place yourself.]
Oliviera pushed past Gileon and walked past Kaise without hesitation.
A faint electric bell echoed through the veil, enough for only Kaise to hear.
[You must already guess where the wizard came from, right?]
“… … .”
[It’s not just us that wears out every moment.] Mystic
eyes shimmered faintly inside the veil as he turned his head toward Kaise
[Now I know it’s not strange to hide something. It doesn’t matter if you know who the wizard is. But remember that you must finish the project,”
said Oliviera.
[It’s a contract. It’s a malicious contract that put our fate on the scales.]
“I know.”
[Really?]
She seemed to be making an empty sneer through the veil.
[Actually, I still don’t know.]
Oliviera suddenly disappears with a single message.
It is clear that he suffered a major blow in the previous battle with the wizard, but it is difficult for even Gileon to guess what happened.
McQueen also had no doubts about his master’s ability, so he must have tried to focus on vigilance here rather than assisting her.
Kaise looked at the scene of the melted power plant vacant with a calm expression and opened his mouth.
“We will recheck and restore the research data from scratch. In the meantime, it will be enough to prevent intruders from entering the power plant.”
“I get it. The last member of the operation should be returning by now.”
Gileon raised his dark eyes and answered.
“Once that man returns, there will be no need to worry about outside attacks.”
“No, there’s one thing I have to entrust to you.”
“… … Is it something that needs to be left to you?”
Kaise nodded his head with an unreadable expression.
“okay… … I think I now know how to finish this study.”
* * *
Inside a half-collapsed apartment building.
Felix, who found a room that was in good shape, twisted the doorknob, and the hard metal handle bent like a stick.
Clap!!
“Looks good here.”
Felix gasped and bent down slowly.
He puts Lennok, who was slung over his shoulder, next to the collapsed sofa.
As soon as Lennok got off Felix’s shoulder, he quickly took out the medicine from within and chewed it down.
“Cool cool cool… … !!”
Work to quickly relieve the side effects of battle by combining stimulants and painkillers.
The mana and energy consumed while fighting Oliviera become a blow that returns to Lennok’s fragile body without adding or subtracting.
While I was forcibly suppressing the harmful effects and relieving the pain, nosebleeds flowed out.
Lennok is immersed in first aid without even thinking about wiping his red-stained apron.
Felix and Illya watched Lennok in agony.
“I’m sorry, Van. I was stupid.”
said the bird-headed giant, who carefully supported Lennok’s back as he coughed.
“The moment I separated from you, I should have ruled out other possibilities and ran to the power plant. Entrusting the most important work to you, who was injured, was doing nothing but fooling around… … .”
“No, Margaret. This is my negligence.”
Ilya bit his lip hard.
“With the time Ban-nim gave me, I couldn’t reap meaningful results against Kaise. We should have secured his recruit… … It is such a big mistake.”
“Cool… … !! Are we going to confess to each other… … ?”
Lennok smiled, wiped the blood from his nose, and stood up.
Lennok’s staggering body was firmly supported by Felix.
“You need to rest. Magic is in an extremely unstable state right now.”
“I don’t have much time.”
Lennok murmured.
“Before the forces on the other side are maintained, this side must first adjust its posture and move.”
If not, it wouldn’t be strange if this side instead of solving the radiation exposure phenomenon would be pursued by them.
Now that we know that Kaise holds the key to the current strange phenomenon, shouldn’t we somehow squeeze through that gap?
Above all, Lennok had no intention of wasting the opportunity to meet Kaise directly with just one failure.
“So you’re saying you’re going to head to the power plant once again in this state?”
“Can’t it be?”
“… … .”
Felix, who was at a loss for words, looked up at Lennok as if he were rather strange.
“Otherwise, I would not have thought of running away from there. What I am talking about is a completely different part.”
“… … Come to think of it, I said I would find Azlan-nim.”
“It’s not just about finding innocence and telling the situation. There are things that need to be checked as soon as that.”
“What do you mean?”
Instead of answering, Lennok glanced around.
“This apartment is too bad for a shelter. If you rest here for too long, you will be discovered sooner or later.”
Lennok nodded, pushing back the front door, which Felix had half crushed.
“Move. If that ghost ship really belongs to the Madrid Onion I know, there’s a suitable place that comes to mind.”
The group immediately packed up and left the apartment.
A shady chill filled the streets everywhere. The shimmering ear-cries in the ears make goosebumps rise on the skin.
Evidence that Madrich Onion’s swearing ceremony began searching for the entire area in range.
However, Lennok didn’t care about the presence of the military spirits he could feel everywhere and headed straight for the downtown area.
A small aquarium located on the outskirts of downtown.
In the empty aquarium, there are only various species of unknown species swimming inside the tank.
Felix also had a strange expression on his face, probably because it was his first time taking a place like this as a hideout.
“Are you really going to be okay here?”
“It’s hard to recognize the influence of Madrich Onion’s command spell from inside the waterway.”
Saying that, Lennok took out the Druid’s amulet from within.
“Then maybe the other way around?”
I remember that the hideout of the former Chief Justice was hidden in a secret place deep under the sea.
It was proof that the power of the lord magician could be blocked and hidden to some extent under the water.
If so, wouldn’t it be natural that even when Madrid Onion is looking for others, it is difficult to find those located on the other side of the waterway.
An amulet that hides a presence on the condition that it does not move, and a Nyx insignia that replaces the presence itself with something of another life form.
A simple boundary line was drawn around the two artifacts, and a legal circle was built surrounding the aquarium.
Huung… … !!
At the same time as the warmth blows in, the dark scenery of the aquarium dimly lights up.
Felix and Ilya then leaned against the wall of the tank to catch their breath.
“Whoa… … .”
They were forcibly holding on to their concentration because they were worried about Lennok, but they also consumed a lot of physical strength and magic power due to the fierce battle earlier.
It is nothing short of a miracle that all three escaped with their lives in a battle between high-ranking superhumans.
“If you come back alive… … . I will definitely pay for the artifact I just used.”
Lennok laughed at Illya’s resolute words.
“You have a knack for making ominous noises.”
“Isn’t that something you want to say at a time like this?”
Felix, who had scolded Illya, cleared his throat slightly, noticing Lennok.
“Hmmmm, of course, that doesn’t mean I won’t pay the price either. All I want to say is… … .”
“I will explain exactly what happened at the power plant.”
After Felix stopped talking, Lennok explained how he had been able to meet Kaise.
The conversation with Kaise, the purpose of space-time research and the appearance of Oliviera.
The expressions of the two people who were listening to Lennok with intensely focused expressions changed to awe.
“You mean fixing the realm of space-time and making it a test bed for experiments… … It is truly an idea that transcends human mutual understanding.”
“If it wasn’t for this operation, I would have dismissed it as the nonsense of a mentally ill person.”
Felix murmured in agony.
“However, that man was not enough to keep his word, and he preserved the ruins intact in this area. A truly vicious act.”
“It’s a vile treatment… … .”
As Lennok pondered the words, Illya spoke again.
“The power Kaise Bajour used was more unique and bizarre than any other supernatural ability I had ever experienced. he is… … . I was able to touch the time felt by humans.”
“… … .”
“I lost the chance to secure Kaise’s new recruit due to that superpower. Although it did some damage in the process… … .”
Felix, who had been listening to Illya’s words, touched his head.
“You said your injury was healed on the spot and back in time? You’re not even human anymore.”
“The body hierarchy itself seemed close to that of a hierarchy, but its magical powers and body went beyond the hierarchy. Perhaps, through the project, he has already obtained the power of an outsider… … .”
“The most important fact is that Kaise himself understood that this space is a separated time and space.”
said Lennok, rubbing his shoulders with an expressionless face.
“Due to the fact that nothing happened at the time the research was successful, I drew a conclusion assuming that my existence was a variable in the process.”
“That means his colleagues may already be aware of that fact.”
“That’s the worst thing ever… … Perhaps we should evacuate the area right now and contact the custodian.”
It is not strange what happens the moment superhumans of the past who exist in the closed area recognize that they are from the past.
A situation where this incident itself may have left their hands and reached an uncontrollable level.
But Lennok shook his head slowly after thinking for a long time at Ilya’s words.
“No, I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but Kaise is… … It seems that he intends not to inform his colleagues.”
“Why?”
“Looking back, Kaise had plenty of opportunities to let his colleagues know about it. But none of the people we dealt with noticed the gap between time and space.”
“… … .”
“Look at the group of warlords who are looking for us right now. If Onion had known about it, would he have wasted his time trying to find us?”
Watching the two slowly change their expressions, Lennok shook his head.
“It can’t be. It’s only natural to lead the ghost ship and run to the edge of the closed area to see for yourself the distanced border. The fact that it didn’t… … .”
“You mean Kaise has no intention of telling the truth.”
Lennok’s eyes lighted up quietly.
“If you’re not even talking to your helpers, then you must be thinking about something else. That’s probably because of our presence.”
“You mean he wants to contact us separately?”
“well… … You never know.”
At Felix’s words, Lennok quietly took something out of his arms.
“But if so, I must have left a message in a way that this side could recognize.”
“Half a minute… … that… … ?”
The other two’s jaws dropped wide at the sight of Lennok grinning and shaking something in his hand.
Vivid red blood dripping from the inside of the vial.
Lennok had succeeded in secretly taking one of Kaise’s serum from the cart.
