Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 724
Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 724
The Wizard and the Magic Tower (1)
Dead Rise.
Lennok laughed bitterly, realizing that the words themselves were the strongest evidence of anything that supported his speculation about Ethan Bajour.
The fact that none of the names left in this city have been used carelessly comes to mind.
[Is Ethan Bajour resurrected or is he wandering around the world as a dead person? Either way, it’s very interesting. I am very curious.]
Oliveira laughed.
Through the veil, her demonic eyes seemed to radiate a clearer light.
[What do you want after leaving this city? … In order to know that, you must continue to hold on to this pitiful life.]
“… … .”
From establishing an organization to raising it as the Three Heads of the Shadows and advancing to the central front to form a huge corps.
It is certain that Ethan Bajour is an extraordinary person, even indirectly revealed.
Even more so, if Kaise’s colleagues are with him, it means that he has the ability and qualifications to convince them.
What did Ethan Bajour promise and ask for to make such a thing possible?
And why did he not pay any attention to Jenny even though he was alive like that?
There is no way to confirm that fact at this point, after finishing the work with Dead Rise and handing over Peisha’s recruit.
In order to dig into the cause and effect here, we have no choice but to approach it in a different way.
The moment Lennok was aware of that fact and was about to turn around.
[Oh, I forgot to hand this over.]
Oliveira held out another old scroll from beyond the veil.
A form similar to the composition of the front wheel fortification that was handed down at the time of the previous transaction.
Lennok, who grabbed the rolling scroll with his magician, checked the contents and laughed.
[Yohui Shrine]
It was because Lennok originally wanted to obtain from Oliviera the Guangyo-type alter ego magic, because it was written in its entirety.
“I don’t know what you’re thinking. Did you suddenly think of patronizing?”
[Wheel Fortification is a spell that is at the highest level in terms of difficulty among light magics.]
Oliviera’s answer mixed with laughter.
[I just thought that there was no need to waste time if I could learn it in that short amount of time and use it in real combat… … Do you have any complaints?]
“… … no. I understand what you mean.”
Understanding her words, Lennok laughed bitterly.
From the beginning, Oliviera knew that Lennok wanted Yo-hee Shrine, not a wheelbarrow fortification.
However, after knowing that Lennok had easily mastered the front wheel fortification, he judged that he would learn Yo-Hee Shrine on his own before long.
In that case, he must have thought that it would be better to hand over the balloting directly and show condescension.
That mentality of weighing the deal first, regardless of the emotional damage, remained.
“Thank you.”
[I don’t know what you’re hoping for, but it won’t be as easy as you think.]
Oliviera snorted from the other side of the veil.
[Yohee shrine is a magic that thoroughly claims to be difficult, independent of skill level. I also only touched briefly to build a big technology or domain.]
Lennok also knew it, so he nodded his head obediently.
“know. It’s probably not a proper clone magic in the first place. Wasn’t the trick of magic itself designed with control in mind in the first place?”
Gwangyo magic is powerful and intuitive, but it is a system that is affected by the environment and is subject to many conditions.
In the past, Oliviera also used Yo-Hee Shrine properly only once, in the battle against Lennok, to make sure that the front wheel fortification was critical.
It must mean that even with Oliviera’s talent, it is difficult to properly control the magic of Yohui Shrine.
“Because voluntarily controlling the concept of diffuse reflection itself will eventually become a matter of the environment and location rather than skill level.”
[…] … Ha, it looks like you didn’t do any research.]
The Yohui shrine and the magic of the wheel fortification itself are high-level magic that uses diffused reflection of light as a trick.
It is powerful because it borrows the concept of randomly refracted diffuse reflection, but that is why it cannot be controlled voluntarily.
What I can do is calculate the location and number of diffused alter egos one by one like Oliviera and temporarily use them for multiple chanting.
Or, completely let go of the controls and put aside the calculations and just run wild.
However, Lennok still felt the need to experiment with Yohee Shrine at least once.
“I needed a technique that works on a completely different principle from my previous alter ego. If it is Yohee Shrine, it will be a teaching aid.”
[Listening, you seem to want a concept other than an alter ego… … Then you’d better go to Yorta,]
said Oliviera.
[This is the place where you have the most mastery of spirit manipulation, materialization of spirits, and the concept of Avatar. It is a city with many things to learn when it comes to spells that go beyond the scope of the body.]
“… … Thanks for the advice. Think about it.”
The military command city of Yorta.
Of course, it wasn’t that Lennok didn’t really think about visiting the military command city.
The message and diary left by Kaise.
Through him, I know that his body is buried in either the Gunryeong City or the Terrible City, so I will have to visit it someday.
Even more so, you need to visit Yorta to learn how to properly use the incarnation that Rapford, the watcher and dog-headed giant, taught you.
Oliviera replied coldly, as if it didn’t matter.
[I was just giving advice suitable for the transaction. I don’t even want to care about the next thing.]
“I guess so.”
Lennok nodded, looking through the veil at the glowing eyes.
“still… … If you have a reason to live as long as you say, you’d better pay attention to your health.”
[What kind of nonsense are you talking about?]
“The fact that you are giving advice on your alter ego must be proof that you too have been interested in researching it.”
[…] … ]
Oliviera is not a generous person enough to meddle in things she doesn’t care about.
The fact that he handed Lennok the ballot of Yohui Shrine and explained it by mentioning Yoreta meant that he was interested in it.
Considering her attitude of not being able to reveal herself, the intention was obvious.
“If you’re not in such a bad condition that you need a substitute, shouldn’t you focus on your recovery first?”
If you think about it, unlike the past Oliviera, she has never been in direct combat.
Even in his laboratory, he rarely shows up and only goes out when it is really necessary.
Now I can guess the situation that her health is not good and which way she is thinking about the alternative.
[You’re talking nonsense. Who do you dare to be concerned about?]
However, Oliviera’s reply was closer to a cold sneer than embarrassment or denial.
[If you have finished your business, stop going. Even if it’s not you, there are too many things to care about.]
“Yes. You said something.”
Lennok smiled and turned his back.
It was a word thrown to get her intentions, but I didn’t expect a big harvest.
It would be enough to confirm that Oliviera’s health is not comfortable for now.
“It wasn’t a bad deal. Call me again if you need anything.”
Lennok looked away while holding the doorknob.
“If you are in a condition to be contacted.”
[…] … .]
Only after the magician’s presence had completely disappeared did the eyes on the other side of the veil look away.
From the back of the president’s office, locked in silence, someone opened the side door and walked out.
“President.”
The red-eyed vampire Virgil stood quietly with his hands behind his back and asked.
“Would it be okay if I didn’t cover the dog’s mouth?”
[What does that mean?]
“I think it’s an issue that needs to be strictly adhered to, even through material transactions if necessary.”
Virgil said calmly.
“He is by no means a light-mouthed man, but he is always the one to hold the hilt if need be. Personally, I think he’s a good person, but… … .”
The vampire laughed bitterly.
“That’s why he’s more dangerous and someone to be wary of.”
Aside from his grotesquely swelling reputation for fastness, Virgil knew what Lennok was like.
Contrary to his cold and cruel handling of work, he is an existence that retains humanity to the extent that it is hard to believe that he is a high-ranking superman.
How vast is the inner standard and self-consciousness, how can a person maintain extreme ambivalence as if he were different?
That’s why Virgil thought that even if he fought Lennok, he shouldn’t distance himself too much.
[Vergil. You still don’t know much about the author. Does he seem like someone who would tie his mouth to something entangled in a low-key deal?]
But as soon as Oliviera heard Virgil’s proposal, he cut it off with a single knife.
[He’s a guy who knows that his judgment and actions are more valuable than anything else. Such suggestions are rather useless stimulation.]
“… … I made a mistake.”
Virgil backed away and Oliviera changed the subject, not caring.
[How’s the lab’s expansion going?]
“Now, the expansion is over and we’re in the process of correcting the formula. I think we can finish it in a few weeks.”
Oliviera’s chronic illness and weakened health are unstable enough to be stable in the original laboratory.
He had been traveling abroad for a while to expand the research area, but it was difficult to endure even that now.
Originally, leaving the lab for a long time at this point itself was a big risk.
However, Oliviera knew this, but decided to expand the laboratory in utmost secrecy.
[In order to make a substitute, I have no choice but to increase the capacity.]
As if I slowly closed my eyes, the dazzling light from behind the veil gradually diminished.
[I’ll be waiting… … .]
“… … .”
Virgil silently bowed his head and turned around to leave the president’s office.
The face of the vampire walking down the corridor was expressionless to the point of transparency.
As if he didn’t want to show the slightest hint of the conversation we just had.
* * *
“Three two one!”
Buff!!!
As the fireworks went off overhead, Lennok moved the scissors in his hand.
The sound of applause bursting out from the surroundings at the same time as cutting the long ribbon.
Even in the midst of this, the voices of fighting and fighting echoed around.
“The order is wrong, you idiot!!”
“I have to cut it with scissors and set off firecrackers. What are you doing?”
“Have you been a mercenary for so long and never attended an event like this?”
“No, you guys didn’t tell me properly!!”
Dylan exclaimed in unjustly at Jenny and the other mercenaries’ bruises.
“In the first place, I said that it was my first time doing a signboard hanging ceremony. No, what are you doing without putting up a signboard?!”
“Of course, we celebrate in advance among ourselves.”
Jenny shrugged and rubbed her nose.
“After building the Magic Tower, you will be so busy you won’t have time to do these things. Of course.”
“… … Is that why you put on a funny show in front of this construction site?”
Chen’s absurd answer wasn’t entirely wrong.
A large open space about two blocks from Jenny’s bar and company.
A construction site in full swing in an empty lot far away from the downtown area of District 49.
It was because Lennok and his colleagues were holding a clumsy hanging ceremony in this dusty place.
Wheein!! thud!!
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The sound of cranes and drills echoes and workers are busy carrying all kinds of supplies.
The mage tower was built with the help of Chen, who started a construction business in Bagoong Fortress.
What is being built in the middle of the vacant lot is the cornerstone of the Ivory Tower, which boasts an enormous size.
“It’s not wrong, but if you have to celebrate a date, it’s true that today is the most appropriate.”
Tatiana said with a laugh.
Even with bandages and splints wrapped around her body and standing on crutches, her face looked quite relaxed.
“The mage tower can be built at any time, but it will only be today to formally establish the tower system and declare the domain.”
“Is it something we have to do right now to declare a domain?”
“They say that building the tower system is something that needs to be done before the tower is completely built.”
Lennok answered Suryun’s question instead.
He set fire to the piece of ribbon he was holding and burned it, averting his gaze.
“I’m ready, so there’s no reason to wait long.”
“This doesn’t interfere with the construction site at all, right?”
Chen, who was watching from the side, asked in an anxious tone.
“If something goes wrong, we might have to start over.”
Jenny replied harshly with her arms crossed.
“Chen will finance the construction anyway, so what’s the problem?”
“Well, it’s because we’re also taking a loss and working at a discount.”
Chen protested.
“This is where schedules and time are money. If the construction is delayed, the damage will be extreme.”
“I made it clear that I would pay full price. You were the one who insisted on doing it at a discount.”
“… … You can’t just take money straight away from Van.”
Jenny smiled brightly.
“Then, even if there is a problem, you will have to inspect it, right?”
“… … .”
Lennox shook his head at Chen, who was at a loss for words.
“That won’t happen, but if there is a disruption to the construction schedule, don’t worry, we will compensate you.”
“half. don’t mind too much This guy isn’t working at a loss in the first place.”
Jenny sneered beside Lennok.
“Do you know how good the construction of the magic tower is in the construction industry? It wasn’t us who benefited, it was Chen.”
“It’s not wrong, but… … .”
Since it is extremely rare for a magic tower to be officially approved and established, the performance of the magic tower construction itself is highly evaluated in any industry.
In the case of a mage tower once properly erected, its existence itself often becomes a landmark or symbol of the region.
It wasn’t strange that Chen was worried and Jenny stretched as much as she poured in materials and manpower without caring about the cost.
Lennok, who was worried, nodded lightly to Chen.
“It would be better to take the workers and avoid it for a while. It won’t take long.”
Aside from those problems, there would be no reason to work in the middle of a busy construction site.
Eventually, while Chen took the workers and retreated for a while, Lennok looked back at the group and nodded.
“Start right away. I have found a suitable place.”
Half-built with a party, but walks inside the tower.
It is so huge that one floor can easily accommodate hundreds of people.
Considering that the plan for how to operate the magic tower has not yet been established, it is a very large area.
Lennok took his party and stood right in the middle of the empty lot planned for the first floor lobby.
“Dylan.”
“Yes, I am ready.”
Dylan, wearing a mask, put down the metal object he was lifting with a very skillful hand.
Whoops!!
The shape of a huge engine with an impressive sleek fuselage.
Lennok inadvertently admired the skillful skill of putting the engine the size of his body down without even making a sound.
“The power control is considerable. Was it helpful then?”
At the random box party, I asked about Dylan’s limiter, but Dylan shook his head.
“Some vicious employer threw me into the sea and made me catch tuna all day.”
“… … .”
“Um… … .”
Lennok, who saw that even Suryun and Mila had changed into exhausted expressions, quietly shut up.
A long discussion on this topic seemed to do nothing good.
Instead, Lennok slowly pulled up his sleeves as he watched the engine drop in front of him.
profit!!
As the magician’s bandages came loose, the melted flames flowed down Lennok’s hands.
The seventh sun of the Blaver Magic Tower. A powerful psychic substance and authority receptor, the phoenix.
At the end of the face-to-face meeting with the pagoda owner, the flames that he had intact in his hands dripped like tears from his fingertips.
The flames of the Phoenix Hall that flowed down finally melted properly under the power unit, radiating intense brilliance between the junctions.
Woooooooooo!!!
“Oh oh… … !!”
Black flames covered the spherical engine that floated into the air and began to rotate slowly on the spot.
Kwagwagwa!!
A beautiful shape that burns and rotates above the party’s heads like a black sun.
The moment when the golden radiance rotates around the sun like a ring and bites its tail with its head.
Faaaaa!!!
The golden ripples that rose up around the sun instantly spread throughout the city.
All the magic users gathered here felt the echo, so the others in Area 49 must have felt the same.
When I looked away with my pounding heart in my arms, Lennok was looking up at the engine with his cigarette in his mouth.
Lennok, who closed his eyes for a moment and checked the condition of the engine with horsepower detection, nodded.
“You succeeded.”
“… … Are you done?”
Mila tilted her head at the phenomenon, which was splendid and magnificent, but seemed to have ended sooner than expected.
“It ended much easier than expected, perhaps because it borrowed an already completed system.”
Declaring an area centered on the magic tower is to change the nature of the environment itself.
Originally, the process of building the engine part of the magic tower and melting the magic system and source image around it for a long time without any sense of incongruity should be preceded.
Lennok quickly omitted it as an expedient borrowing from the system of the Phoenix Hall, and designated the entire space as a sphere at once.
“For now, it will end with the benefits of assisting senses and magical powers, but other privileges will be created over time.”
Rather than making the designation of a region successful through a change in the nature of space, a causal reversal that establishes the concept first and then follows the change in nature.
It was something he was half-sure of when he obtained the power of the Phoenix Hall and the engine of the satellite.
The moment Lennok lightly shook his hands and took a few steps back.
Mila, who was watching with her mouth open, suddenly raised her finger as if she had discovered something.
“There is something strange lying there. So, was that also made with that authority?”
“… … what?”
Lennok, who followed Mila’s hand involuntarily, noticed the strange object and fell silent.
A large egg was placed under an engine spinning in midair.
It was so strange and large that I couldn’t understand why I hadn’t noticed it until now.
“… … ”
“What is this?”
In terms of size, the mercenaries began to surround and observe the egg, which was as large as it could have reached the waist.
“Really. There were no eggs like this until just a moment ago.”
“No, there’s no way you wouldn’t have known about such a big egg in the first place. It was just made here.”
“Can I eat it? It looks delicious.”
Looking at Dylan who was licking his lips, Jenny replied.
“If you ask Felix, you’ll know right away if it’s edible.”
“What if I don’t let you eat because you’re my own people?”
“Wayan, what do you think of Felix? No, I don’t know… … .”
“yes?”
“I want everyone to calm down. Sorry, but this is not for eating.”
Tatiana stepped forward and answered with a slightly puzzled look.
“Then what is it?”
Tatiana, who was staring blankly at the egg, replied slowly.
“It’s hard for me to believe easily, but… … This is the egg of the guardian spirit that guards the tower.”
“… … A guardian spirit?”
“It is said to be an intelligent entity that appears extremely rarely at the moment when a very powerful domain is created.”
Looking back at the egg, Tatiana’s face was filled with amazement that could not be hidden.
“I’ve only heard about it in the literature, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it in person, but I’m sure it is. This is the guardian deity that protects the tower Ban made.”
“… … .”
powerful domain. master of consciousness. A phenomenon that even Tatyana, who worked on the Central Front, had never seen before.
What is the reason why a phenomenon that has only been handed down in the literature suddenly appeared in this place?
Naturally, everyone turned their gaze to Lennok.
Lennok, with his arms folded, avoided answering.
“… … This is the first time I’ve heard of it. I think there must be a mistake.”
Awesome… … !!
At that moment, as if he had recognized Lennok’s voice, the surface of the egg slowly began to crack.
