Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 649
Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 649
Executioner (6)
Tuwoong!!
The two heads of a giant statue the size of a man fall down.
From the section where the head was severed, a dark red sap began to ooze out like a living person.
Looking at Maya casually retracting the shortsword, Lennok said as if he was dumbfounded.
“Is it okay to break the prototype like this? If you make it like this, it will be difficult to use the god’s ability.”
“The doctor didn’t take the coordinates this way to make a deal with the god’s ability.”
Maya replied with an expressionless face.
“Among the materials that make up the new statue’s ability, there are items needed for this plan.”
Instead of answering that question, Lennok looked around, put his finger on the oozing juice, and murmured.
“This… … It is the essence of an archangel.”
“Did you know?”
“I once dealt with an archangel called by Hermes in Simseonggwan.”
The moment the archangel Kashuin borrowed the body of Meister and descended, didn’t dark red ooze overflow?
Lennok realized that the blood that gushed out of the statue’s decapitated section was the very essence of the archangel.
As proof, the compassion of the archangel who had absorbed Kashuin’s spirit was faintly vibrating.
“I didn’t think it could be used anywhere because of its poor magical conductivity, but was it being used as a power source for divine statues?”
“The archangel’s essence is the very few catalysts that can reciprocate the information of both the present life and the old world.”
“Compatible… … .”
Is it because they serve a failed god both in the old world and in the present world based on their faith?
Lennok seemed to be able to somehow guess why the archangel’s essence could reconcile the information of the two worlds.
said Maya, looking back at Lennok in surprise.
“On the contrary, I find your words more interesting. Did Hermes summon the spirit of an archangel from beyond the door?”
“To be precise, it was a form of enforcing the human body… … .”
Lenoch briefly explained how Hermes summoned the archangel at the time.
When the story of the failed god was omitted and the before and after process was told, Maiya was troubled.
“Even at the time of planning, almost all failed to bring spirituality directly beyond the door… … Hermes seems to have reached a high level of skill at using doors.”
“According to Hermes, the infusion of the archangel’s spirituality into humans seemed like an experiment in itself.”
Lennok, who naturally picked up the archangel’s essence and stored it in an empty vial, answered.
If the essence itself acts as a catalyst, it is necessary to collect data.
“Now that you know that the spirituality of the old world can dwell in a human body, you will now try to summon the Transcendental One in earnest.”
Hermes is an artificial self that has been eroded by the ascendant’s memories.
Although he identified himself with the memories of the ascendant, strictly speaking, he was not a transcendental person.
But when Hermes summons the true Ascendant’s spirituality from beyond the gates, the story changes.
That is literally the same as descending to the Machine City of Makina by the Ascendant himself from the old world.
Through the descent of the archangel, it is confirmed that there is no problem with the plan, and a new ascension gate is being created through the divisional movement.
The moment the plan is completed, Hermes will directly summon the spirit of the ascendant from beyond the third door and attempt to unite.
‘I wonder what will happen when the ascendant from the old world descends into this world… … .’
While Lennok was lost in thought, Maya moved toward the head of the statue she had cut down.
Two decapitated heads with eyes closed.
Bringing the short sword to the eyelid, cut it out and extract the ten pupils that exist in the idol one by one.
The statue’s head wriggling faintly as if in pain and pouring out dark red ooze.
However, within the moment Maya extracted all of her pupils, she lost all her strength and became stiff as if she were dead.
Lenok asked while looking at the ten pupils extracted from the statue’s head.
“What I needed was not the ability of a god. Did you want these pupils in the first place?”
“The prototype created by Attermire has not been fully functional, so there is a part that was made by borrowing the power of a mythical Noble Phantasm possessed by Makina.”
Maya replied as she held her pupil in her hand and carefully broke it.
Kwajik!!
divine eye. Among them, the purplish-black lens that served as the pupil was carefully collected.
When the fragments of the pupil were extracted and collected, they naturally merged and turned into a mirror the size of a finger.
thump thump… … !!
The purple-black jeweled mirror, held in Maya’s hand, oscillated and swayed irregularly.
Lennok gazed intently at the purplish-black jeweled mirror beating like a heart, then frowned slightly.
“The space… … .”
The space of the mirror Maya was holding actually expanded and contracted.
A strange phenomenon in which the space itself expands and contracts along with the pulsation of the jewel mirror.
Maya’s hands also swelled and contracted along the space, tearing her skin and dripping blood.
“… … .”
Needless to say, the level of endurance and resilience of an 8th-level physical ability person was high.
Just by holding the mirror in Maiya’s hand, the shaking of the space was so intense that it swelled up and was torn apart.
But Maya’s expression didn’t change even as she watched her hand swell and tear and drip blood.
He held out the mirror dripping with blood and held it out to Lennok.
“Do you think you know what this is?”
“… … All I know is that it’s something with a very strong will.”
Lennok muttered as he studied it carefully.
“If you look at the fact that it is not mixed with magic power, it is not an artifact or a jewel. It is not a natural phenomenon or an object created from causal relationships in the first place.”
“It is an object that materializes the will of Madrea Palseir, the 9th-level Ascendant.”
Lennok, not understanding the meaning of the answer for a moment, was silent.
He knew perfectly well what Maya meant by the name that he had just uttered, so he couldn’t understand it.
“… … what?”
“The ideology of the heavenly view that saw everything in this world farther than anyone else. It is an extract created by extracting the foundation of that idea.”
“… … .”
Lennok, who was speechless, quickly adjusted his expression and asked.
“Thousand dogs… … . Is it a mental substance made by extracting the lighthouse keeper’s entire ideology?”
“A few of these extracts were made with the help of the Celestial Dog during the Ascension Gate project in Machina.”
Maya answered.
“Among the great ascendants, the Celestial Dog was relatively friendly to humans. That’s why I was able to obtain this synesthetic body after paying a huge tribute to the Dominion of Philenom.”
“… … .”
“In the process of making the Ascension Gate, most of it was consumed as milestones, but it is one of the items that Atermeyer secretly stole and hid.”
Grabbing the jewel mirror, Maya muttered to herself.
A world of thought developed by a 9th-level ascender who completely covers his image with reality.
From his encounter with Jindun, Lennok was well aware of how unrealistic the concept was.
Jindun Zaigis Ethernore is a labyrinth of the Sasang War that was developed in the northern continental snowfield.
A huge maze that could accommodate thousands of superhumans at once, who developed by overlaying his life as a priest in the barriers.
It is a power that goes beyond simply ruling and governing the realm and seizes the right to life and death of all those who have entered the ideological realm.
Maiya was saying that he had extracted and materialized some of the thoughts of the entire world of thought under the control of the Heavenly Dog.
‘Are you saying that Madrea Falseir extracted her entire ideology and spread it to the world… … .’
Why did the vision of heaven in his lifetime lend his power to Makina’s Ascension Gate plan?
Did he even hope that the way of the machine city would be the answer to the end of this world?
If so, Lapis, who inherited the role of lighthouse keeper, would not have known this fact.
Perhaps the Blue Eye’s plan to build lighthouses all over the world and regain the supernormal ability of the lighthouse keeper may be related to the ideological reversal of the heavenly dog.
While Lennok was lost in thought, Maya continued.
“The will of a qualified transcendent is a force comparable to that of this world. If you borrow that power, you can twist the timeline to force a fixed point.”
Did you mean to materialize the ascendant’s will and use it as power to tear down the walls of the world and forcibly use it as a starting point for the next door?
Sensing how absurd Makina’s technical skills and ideas were in those words, Lennok involuntarily nodded.
“Are you saying that in order to forcibly fix the starting point of the plan, he materialized the will of his vision and used it as a milestone? I’m not crazy… … .”
The essence of the Ascension Gate Plan is to create the gate itself to the next world.
However, as it transcends the world itself, it needs a starting point to return to at any time between the rapidly changing timelines.
If there is no fixed point that goes beyond the relativity of time, you may get lost and drift while the plan is in progress, never to return.
That’s why the ancestors of the Machine City wanted to materialize the will of the Ascendant and set it as a milestone in order to make the plan a success.
“A lighthouse keeper’s will to see the farthest can surely serve as eyes to find a way even on the other side of the world.”
“… … You understand faster than you think. Have you had a similar experience?”
Maya looked back at Lennok, slightly surprised that he understood his explanation right away.
“… … You understand faster than you think. Have you had a similar experience?”
As Lennok had been thinking about the ability needed to deal with time magic, he could immediately understand the role of the gem.
“Anyway, I understand that the jeweled mirror is the catalyst that materialized the will of the celestial eye. Is this the way Artermeyer said?”
Dr. Attermire is the person who copied and implanted the Ascension Gate opening code into the head of Elava Attermire, who is known to be his own blood.
With that in mind, it wouldn’t be strange if the Doctor left a means to forcefully close the door on the contrary.
Although he reacted as if he had no lingering attachments to the Gate of Ascension, did he still have the means to intervene in the Gate of Ascension’s system in the event of an emergency?
That meticulousness and maddening inquisitiveness were one of the reasons why Lennok felt that the doctor was particularly dangerous even among the geniuses and monsters of Pandaemonium.
“Hermes’ method is just running rampant in a direction that has nothing to do with the failure of the Ascension Gate… … . There are no regrets or answers to that fact.”
Maya coldly mocked herself.
“I don’t understand an alternative like that. Fundamentally, there must be a way to rectify the error of Ascension Gate.”
“… … .”
“I will definitely find a way before the end comes… … . Until then, no one can rule this city as they please.”
In Maya’s eyes, it wasn’t just enthusiasm or desire.
Obsession and madness that shine infinitely calmly and coldly. The determination of a failure who is ready to sacrifice any means for the sake of a goal.
It is a shortcut to ruin, knowing for yourself that it cannot stretch in the right direction.
The moment Lennok opened his mouth to say something about him.
Saaak… … !!
From afar, along with a tingling chill, a sharp presence pressing down on all sides began to spread like paint.
Almost at the same time, the two looked away and immediately recognized the identity of the presence.
The mechanized corps close to the fire battery and the covert and shady side squad are different from the sharp and clear individual signs.
The best small elite special force group in Machine City.
A symbol of power and an agent of order that represents Machina.
The enforcement agency directly surrounded the central district.
* * *
Doo doo doo doo!!!
In the vicinity of the Deep Earth Clock Tower, which vibrates violently.
Between the buildings filled with only the noise of the streets reeling from the vibrating sound reverberating wildly from all directions.
Dozens of superhumans in dark-colored uniforms stood on the roofs of different buildings and stared at one place in silence.
Machine City’s most elite special forces enforcement agency.
After going through dozens of actual battles, the elites who are formally awarded the name of an executor stare at one place in unison and wait for the right moment.
Chiik-!
A hard female voice echoed through the silent communication network.
[I will go first. I ask the other Executors to rescue the Ex Machina members.]
“… … Isabella.”
Filo, one of the branch heads in charge of directing the other executioners in the field, opened his mouth.
“Are you okay?”
[This is the person I selected as a candidate and called to the Meister selection ceremony.]
Isabella answered in a voice with no emotion.
[I am also responsible for what happened.]
“… … .”
Without waiting for Pylo’s reply, Isabella moved immediately.
The new model of her melted into the shadow as if disappearing immediately stands in front of the clock tower.
[If something happens, don’t mind me and start the strategy right away.]
Isabella is the official who brought Lyman to the selection ceremony. So, with that responsibility, Isabella goes to the most dangerous front.
Ujat bit his lip at the sight, but he too didn’t say anything and just watched the situation.
Standing in front of the clock tower’s main entrance, Isabella slowly pulled off the hood she was wearing and walked into the lobby.
Squeak… … !!
The noise of the door being opened echoed, but Isabella did not hide it and walked in calmly.
A dark clock tower lobby with no light at all.
Only the vibrations resounding from time to time as the compartments move are faintly shaking the inside of the lobby.
A man with his back turned stood in the middle of the various statues that surrounded the ceiling of the lobby.
Isabella called his name in a cold voice.
“… … Lyman.”
“Isn’t this the first time I’ve seen you in the lower workshop district?”
Without even looking back at Isabella, Lennok spoke first.
“You are still using the amplifier. I thought you would visit me again at least once.”
“… … .”
“It’s something that needs periodic adjustments. You’d better ask another artisan to adjust the device in the future.”
“Why?”
Isabella asked.
“Your talent as a craftsman is of a kind that is unmatched by anyone else in this city.”
It was a small voice, like a whisper, but even that tone resonated distinctly in this quiet lobby.
“Even if he devoted himself to the city by focusing on his craftsmanship, glory and success would be guaranteed.”
“That question is a bit misleading.”
Lennok laughed.
“Didn’t Executor know that I was an outsider?”
“… … .”
“In order to have him participate in the selection ceremony, he named himself Lyman and borrowed the identity of his deceased father-in-law to create an alibi.”
Lennok said calmly to Isabella, who did not respond.
“It just went as the circumstances lead and we have arrived at the present time. Isn’t it too late now to blame anyone?”
“okay. yes.”
Saying that, Isabella grabbed the amplifying device in her hand.
The four blades that had been folded inward opened, and the mana that rotated between them was amplified madly and turned into a light sphere.
A magical power orb the size of a fist. However, the magic that is compressed and rotated within it is powerful enough to evaporate the clock tower.
The clock tower lobby, which had been dark with only that magic light, shone brightly as if it would blind one’s eyes.
Pajijik!!
Isabella said, moving the amplifier and aiming the photosphere behind Lennok’s back.
“So now is the time to take responsibility for what I did then.
Only Isabella’s calm voice echoes through the invisible brilliance.
“We have secured circumstantial evidence and related testimony that the culprit wearing the iron mask is you. You are arrested on charges of 12 special felony crimes, including assassination of Meister and members of Ex Machina and rebellion. Close your eyes and put your hands forward. I will not allow any comments until the pressure is over.”
“It’s my fault… … .”
Lennok murmured, tilting his head back.
He smiled, not caring about the fact that the floating light bulb was getting closer.
“Hermes seems to have thought of this incident that way.”
“Lyman. Were you talking about it before?”
Saying that, Isabella immediately tightened her grip on the amplifying device.
“I hate to say it twice.”
Aaaaaaa!!!
The light bulb formed at the end of the amplifying device rotated as it was and was shot accurately toward Lennok’s back.
A tremendous amount of light burst out in front of the two of them, illuminating the light and dyeing the whole area with hellish heat.
Cuguaguagua!!!
Isabella’s expression as she projected her magic cannon at the craftsman who repaired her equipment was unmoved.
She knew that a decision had to be made at the point where the name Lyman began to mean more than a father-in-law.
Wow!!
Into the unpredictable storm of heat, he reached out without hesitation and grabbed Lennok by the collar without hesitation.
“If you’re really a criminal who has overturned the view of mind, there’s no way you can’t endure this much.”
Whoop!!
“All that’s left is to take you and tell you all the inside stories in the interrogation room… … !!”
But the moment Isabella’s words stopped when she realized that it wasn’t Lennok who was at her fingertips, but someone holding her hand.
Whoaaaaaa!!
From beyond the flames of magic, someone wearing an iron mask stepped out in front of her without hesitation.
A savage and violent mana that is incomparable to that of Lyman.
Lennok was looking back at her with an expressionless face behind the iron mask that had stepped forward with an overwhelming lethal breath.
“… … !!!”
The moment when Isabella felt a strong confusion and hardened her face at the fact that the identity of the iron mask was not Lyman.
said Lennok, who slowly rose from his seat.
“I’m sorry it turned out this way, Isabella.”
“This… … !!”
The moment Isabella shook off the iron mask’s hand, stepped back, and quickly reached for the communicator.
The iron mask that dug into her gap kicked Isabella in the stomach.
Awesome!!
“… … !!!”
An ultra-high-speed blow, as if it split the space itself and compressed the movement line to the limit.
Isabella’s body, unable to even react, bent over and landed on the wall of the clock tower.
Kwaaaaang!!
“Kahak!!”
However, even while screaming in pain, Isabella did not let go of the control of the magical power contained in the amplifying device.
The strong mental power and outstanding talent of the executive officer were manipulating the output despite the shock to the extent of losing consciousness.
The huge photosphere that followed Isabella in its tail turned into a flashing pillar of light on the spot.
In an instant, it fell to the ground as a heavy bombardment that blew away the clock tower itself.
Aaaaaaa!!
However, the iron mask standing in front of Lennok silently muttered while looking at the falling condensation of magical power.
[…] … It’s a nostalgic sound.]
Through the iron mask, a hard jingle that is difficult to guess the identity of was resonated.
[I couldn’t recognize it for a while because it was such an old memory.]
“Cool!! what… … ?”
[Did he say he repaired your equipment? Right. Clark already… … .]
Isabella’s expression distorted at the sight of the iron mask lowering her head silently without being able to speak.
Not only did he know the name of Clark Lenslett, but he also felt a strong sense of incongruity in his agitated appearance after realizing his death.
In the meantime, the iron mask began walking slowly forward with its head tilted crookedly.
[It’s all my fault, Isabella.]
“… … What is your true identity?”
[It’s all my responsibility. I’m sorry.]
“Take off the mask and show your face… … !!!”
That moment when Isabella shot low and shot it with all her might, using the magic power contained in the amplifying device as a bullet.
The being wearing an iron mask hit the magic bullet with one hand and bounced it aside.
Kwaaaaang!!
The wall of the clock tower explodes as if it were exploding, blowing a fierce heat wave.
Busy communication network. The sharp signs of the executioners surrounding the clock tower begin to move in unison.
The iron mask beckoned lightly between the temperatures so intense that it melted the ground at once, and the heat wave was removed.
Through the frenzy, Iron Mask spoke without looking back at Lennok.
[I don’t intend to give a separate signal, so start on your own.]
“I’ll take care of that. But will it be okay?”
Lennok asked, nodding his head toward the other side of the clock tower building, which had been completely destroyed after the heat had dissipated.
“Looks like a lot to deal with alone.”
Beyond the dust storm, the shadows of superhumans revealing their presence one by one.
All of them scatter their sharp, sharply refined intent to kill, and cast their gazes down from all sides.
A fleeting battle exchanged with Isabella.
However, the other executioners began to move as if they were using the pillar of light that destroyed the clock tower in half as a signal.
In fact, it looked like she was handing over dozens of enforcement officers to one person at the same time.
However, at Lennok’s words, he let out a cold sneer, as if the iron mask was unreasonable.
[Don’t talk nonsense and watch from behind.]
Clap!!
The iron mask waved lightly, and at the same time, Sotaedo was caught on one forearm.
The appearance of the iron mask, which began to stride forward casually while holding the sharp silver blade in reverse.
[Because there will be no such thing as me being defeated in this city.]
