Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 757
The Medicine-Eating Genius Wizard
Episode 757 One-Man Play (9)
An elixir’s ability to fix the amount of existing magic itself and eliminate consumption.
However, even after learning about Elixir’s ability, Lennok was not easily excited.
It was because he vaguely realized the meaning and limitations of the elixir’s power right after the experiment.
“Dabi. The time at which the amount of horsepower is fixed. Exactly how much?”
[When tested on plants, 6.409 seconds. It’s about 3.98 seconds based on the time the master took it.]
“It’s ambiguous… … .”
If you quantify it through Darby’s data measurement, it’s only 3.98 seconds. If it’s long, it’s long, if it’s short, it’s a short ambiguous time.
It was a bit of an ambiguous time to freely wield high-output magic, which was worth a thousand gold in battles between high-ranking superhumans.
‘When I chanted Alpha Light seven times, there was no magic consumption for the first four times, but there was a consumption for the next three times.’
It means that magic that has not been cast will consume magic power after the time that the effect lasts.
In other words, you must finish the chant within 3.98 seconds and activate the magic to enjoy the effect of the elixir without consuming magical power.
Lennok, who quickly shook his head, began to ponder over the number of cases.
‘I can get the medicinal effect by omitting or changing the order of some high-ranking magic, but the magnetic field is dangerous.’
Wizards of Lennok’s level can make adjustments by not chanting spells, or by changing the order and omitting the chanting.
It would not be difficult to enjoy the effect by changing the order required for casting magic and taking the diluted solution in between.
The problem was in the use of the magnetic field that Lennok was using.
Kaleidoscope Imagery is not a technique that can be used by properly changing the order of chanting or casting.
An image of a composition that even Lennok himself pushes and elevates himself to the limit whenever he uses it, barely reaching the point.
Can the miracle of deploying a kaleidoscope, observing and selecting branching points, and unfolding them multiple times can be solved within a time of about 4 seconds.
After thinking for a moment, Lennok tilted his head.
“I think it might be possible… … .”
[It’s possible?!]
Darby even asked Lennok in amazement.
“It would be helpful if the mana consumption of opening the kaleidoscope was reduced. If you think about it that way, it definitely won’t be helpful at all.”
Of course, whether taking the dilution in succession would not strain the body, and whether the
magical power fixation phenomenon would work easily not only against Lennok but also against other test subjects.
He would have to continue researching the use and application of the elixir, but Lennok already clearly realized how valuable this elixir was.
In the first place, from being able to temporarily fix the magical power of a magician like Lennok, it was by no means a normal power or supernormal ability.
A force that goes against the principles of the world formed by the existing magic theory and physical laws.
The only thing that can do this is imagery that starts from the source of the magician.
At the point of confirming the ability of the elixir, Lennok was convinced that this elixir was made based on Aris’ original image.
‘I don’t know if this kind of thing is possible because I have obtained some type of imagery… … .’
Aris Richellen, whom Lennok remembers, was a very outstanding elemental wizard, and among them, he was a scholar who focused on the beasts.
He wasn’t bad at fighting, but he was most talented at arranging his magic in theory and arranging it in an orderly fashion.
So, didn’t that talent shine the brightest even when he was studying in the library or laboratory with Lennok?
If Aris had awakened her image and melted her source into the form of an elixir, then created it.
What kind of landscape and ability do the images she has in her hands depict?
Water class unique magic. And the ability of the elixir, as if to temporarily fix mana.
It feels like a miracle, like stopping flowing water with your bare hands.
“… … .”
It seemed like he knew more, but Lennok stopped thinking and stood up.
Although he had discovered the efficacy of the elixir, he had no intention of stopping the experiment here.
It’s a waste to consume more dilution here, but even if it means reducing the number of times, you have to find out the potential of the elixir as much as possible here.
Lennok thought so and received another test subject from Darby and started the experiment right away.
Immediately after that, I had to accept a result different from the conclusion I had previously obtained.
“Fixed… … .”
[This time, the amount of magic power is not fixed?]
This time, the target to inject the diluted elixir was a small flower placed near the laboratory.
It does not have the property of absorbing mana, but it is an ornamental plant with the characteristic of blooming with mana the moment it blooms.
However, this time, when the diluted solution was injected into the flower, the magic fixation phenomenon that Lennok expected did not occur.
Lennok met Darby’s gaze and tilted his head.
“How did this happen?”
[…] … Shall we try the experiment again with the master?]
After taking the diluent again, putting aside Darby’s unpleasant words, it was confirmed that the amount of magic power was fixed as before.
In other words, while the drug works normally on Lenok, it does not work on other targets.
“… … Let’s test it on other subjects.”
After that, after catching various plants capable of measuring horsepower fluctuations, and even catching a few rats that roamed outside the laboratory and feeding them the diluted solution, Lennok was convinced.
“The effect of the elixir is… … It works differently on different subjects.”
[It’s not that it doesn’t work at all. However, unlike when the Master uses it, it seems to stop at a level where the magical power consumption is halved for other test subjects.]
“… … .”
If a test subject other than Lennok takes the elixir, the effect of fixing the entire amount of magic power does not occur.
Instead, when performing an action that required magic consumption, the rate at which magic was consumed was drastically reduced by about 40%.
It’s not a magic fixer, but rather a mana consumption halving drug.
However, at the point of knowing this fact, one of the most important questions remained.
[Then, why did the plant we first experimented with grow with a fixed amount of magical energy?]
Darby asked, twisting her tail.
[If it was an item that had a different effect only on the Master, then this plant would have had to pay the price of reducing its magic power consumption by half, as it is now.”
“The first flowerpot I experimented with. It was a plant that grew while absorbing mana in the lab.”
Lennok, who was silent, asked back.
“Maybe he absorbed some of that extra while being exposed to my magical power?”
[…] … Are you saying that the Elixir reacts only to the Master’s magical power and produces different effects?] The
first plant tested was a plant that grew and received magical power in Lennok’s laboratory.
Maybe that’s why he was able to enjoy the effect of the elixir in the same way as Lennok.
“If you ask Clarisse directly, you’ll find out.”
Lennok said that and immediately grabbed his overcoat.
As I was about to leave the lab, my phone rang and a message flew in.
Jenny’s message reaches Lennok, who has turned off most of the notifications.
-half. All preparations for the Mage Tower cooperative business operation are complete.
“It’s just fine.”
Lennok murmured and immediately picked up his cell phone and called Clarisse.
“There must be one more thing I can show you right away.”
* * *
“You’re faster than I thought.”
Lennok’s Mage Tower nearing completion of the foundation work.
The construction of the middle and upper floors has already been completed, and various facilities, including the office, are currently open.
Among them, the scenery of the spacious meeting room located on the upper floors.
This time, Lennok is sitting and waiting for her, and Clarice, who has been contacted, walks in.
Clarice, who casually took off her coat and draped it over a chair, looked at Lennok and her eyes lit up.
“I thought it would take some time to figure out the Elixir’s ability. It seems that their research facilities and manpower are pretty good.”
“It was diluted.”
“… … yes?”
Lennox said expressionlessly at Clarisse, who looked flustered.
“I left one bottle as an undiluted solution and diluted the other bottle to increase the amount. If Aris Richellen is curious, tell me.”
“… … .”
Clarice, who had been silent, shook her head quietly.
“no. It doesn’t matter how the goods that have already been delivered are used. Aris probably thought so too, so she wouldn’t say anything to me.”
“Right.”
“Apart from that, I would like to ask you to keep quiet about this matter.”
Clarisse’s eyes shone coldly.
“Elixir’s ability to reduce magic consumption is unparalleled among existing elixirs. Just by taking it, you can reduce the magical power consumption of the spell you cast immediately after by up to 40%, and the recoil doesn’t last long or the aftereffects don’t last long.”
“… … .”
As expected, Clarisse understands the ability of the elixir not as a fixed amount of magic power, but as a method of reducing magic consumption by half.
That meant that even she was unaware of the ability to fix magical energy that Lennok had experienced.
Did Aris not tell Clarisse about this?
Or did Aris herself not think that such a result would come out?
Clarisse spoke again while Lennok was lost in thought.
“Even if the fact that this elixir exists is revealed as information, there is a high possibility that the continental elixir market will fluctuate greatly.”
“How many people at the Sinclair Mage Tower know about the elixir?”
“Including myself, there are not five people. Some people do not know the specific efficacy.”
Clarisse replied.
“If Aris doesn’t pursue mass production, I have no intention of putting this product on the market either.”
“In fact, it means that it is something that has not even been decided whether to commercialize it.”
“You understand why this information shouldn’t be leaked, right?”
There is a high possibility that a great uproar will arise around Sinclair’s Mage’s Tower just because the existence of the Elixir is known.
It wouldn’t be strange if other giant forces or monsters intervened just by realizing the potential of Aris Richellen’s image.
If it could be done only with the effect of reducing magic consumption by half, what would it be like if it was the power of fixed amount of magic allowed to Lennok?
But Lennok kept his mouth shut instead of adding unnecessary words there.
Because he knew that he didn’t have to make a promise to Clarisse directly in a place like this.
Clarisse stared blankly at Lennoc’s face, then slowly stood up and picked up his overcoat.
“This is the end of our work in the Balkans. I’m going to go back to the Mage’s Tower-”
“If you’re Aris Richellen’s teacher, you’ll have pretty high authority inside Sinclair’s Mage’s Tower, right?”
An Aspect Wizard who has reached level 7. If the non-human Jangsaengjong had no power inside the Mage Tower, it would be strange as it is.
Without waiting for Clarisse’s answer, Lennok immediately continued.
“If you are representing the position of the Sinclair Magic Tower, I would like to form an alliance here. I will create a branch for Sinclair, so send a wizard to manage it.”
“… … I’m not sure what you mean by that.”
Clarisse frowned and turned to Lennox.
“Why do you decide to give this mage tower branch to Vulcan?”
“Recently, I started a new business centered on the mage tower I built.”
Lennox nodded, expressionless.
“It is still in the preparation stage, but after the pilot operation is over, it will begin to expand in earnest.”
“What the hell is that pilot project?”
“Look down.”
The moment Clarice inadvertently turned her gaze toward the bottom of the window at those words.
Boaaaang!!
Dozens of large cargo trucks stop in perfect order along the wide road in District 49.
Workers with their sleeves rolled up quickly carried the packed boxes while sweating.
All of the workers are high-class personnel who can strengthen their bodies through a small amount of magic.
After quickly moving the items in the luggage compartment around the tower, other vehicles entered one after another.
jump!
All of them, who opened the car door and got out immediately, were wizards exuding strong magical powers.
It was only those who had been dispatched from organizations with considerable standing, each with a different lineage and skill.
“What floor were we assigned to?”
“East and Lake are separated. We need to go and check the location first, so move quickly!”
The image of him holding all kinds of boxes and items inside the vehicle and walking into the Mage Tower without hesitation.
The freelancers who had been watching with a wary gaze around them confirmed the identity of the object they were moving and started whispering.
“Hey, do you see that?”
“Are you sure. It is a magical anti-inflammatory drug sold only in the Voyager Magic Tower.”
“There is a self-repair kit that is distributed directly by the Magic Engineering Association. The valuables that are sold out are sold out… … .”
“The Carlyle Lab’s Miniature Particle Accelerators. Why is something like that suddenly here… … ?”
Artifacts and items circulated in District 49 are almost non-existent, but stolen goods that are particularly difficult to obtain are everywhere.
In particular, there are many high-quality items that are difficult to touch unless they are used in second-hand transactions or illegal auctions.
What does it mean that items that are hard to see even for freelancers who have been rolling on this floor for a long time are being brought into the Mage Tower in large quantities?
After saying that, the people who realized what was going on stopped talking.
“The construction of the magic tower is almost finished.”
“Are you really going to start the business as soon as the construction is finished?”
The first mage tower in the Balkans, said to have been built by Kyeonro.
Everyone understood that it had already begun to move in a place where no official name had been announced yet.
Clarice turned to Lennok with a surprised expression.
“I can’t believe that the pilot project that the magic tower is carrying out… … .”
“Is there a need to filter out every business that wants to open a business in the Balkans?”
Lennok asked in response and moved next to her.
Looking through the window at hundreds of sorcerers rushing towards the magic tower, Lennok said.
“If I were in a position to choose, I just made up my mind to make it as comfortable as possible.”
“… … This.”
“It is to bring partner companies and research institutes that want to open up the market in megacities into the area of the Mage Tower, and exhibit the branch to attract business sites.”
Lennok smiled confidently.
“We will soon be the largest luxury goods store in the Balkans… … No, it can become a mage tower.”
“… … .”
Clarisse looked at Lennoc’s profile in a puzzled way and asked.
“Even if you always stay in the area of the magic tower and maintain it, you can’t bring all the businesses that want to form alliances into the area.”
The territory of the magic tower is the boundary line designated as an extraterritorial territory even within the Balkans.
So it’s understandable that Lennok’s idea of becoming a huge distribution network itself with business branches in it is understandable.
It is an idea and solution that can only be found in the one and only Mage Tower in Balkan.
However, no matter how wide the area was, it was impossible to let in all those who wanted to deliver items to the Mage Tower.
“Even if there is a way to expand the territory, how are you going to manage the businesses that come from all over the continent?”
“management? Why should I do that?”
“… … yes?”
As Lennok said, he raised his gaze to the sky.
The moment when Clarisse followed him and looked up at the sky above the Mage Tower.
Clap!!
Black fireballs quickly rose above the top floor of the unfinished Mage Tower.
Kwaaaa!!
The shape of a black sun about the size of a person.
It was neither big nor small enough to catch the eyes of the people gathered around the magic tower.
However, the moment you raise your gaze and face the black sun, you feel a strange attraction as if you are being sucked into it.
It’s a strange suction that doesn’t physically pull the body, but forcibly grabs and draws the gaze.
Clarisse, realizing his true identity, turned her gaze to Lennok with a look of astonishment.
“You’re crazy, solid. Perhaps by opening the entire ritual space of the magic tower to the outside… … !!”
“It’s to open up the consciousness space and let the tower system manage it directly.”
Lennok nodded.
“Perhaps you are not a human, so you have a quick understanding of the application of consciousness space. Have you ever had a similar experience?”
“… … Everyone like me would have had the same experience.”
The appearance of Clarisse laughing bitterly while making incomprehensible sounds.
But instead of asking, Lennock gestured toward Clarice.
“Shall we go in and explain? Whether or not to place the branch of the Sinclair Magic Tower in the tower is determined by looking at it.”
However, Clarisse quickly shook her head in bewilderment.
“No! If I enter the conscious space like this, my body… … !!”
Faaaaaa!!
Before she could answer properly, a huge black door opened in front of Clarisse’s eyes.
