Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 849
#Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 849
Handover (17)
“The purpose of the laboratory’s existence was to study Evan Bylan, not public magic?”
Lennok smiled bitterly as he looked at Raphael’s stiff face.
“That’s a ridiculous answer. “What are you going to do by studying researchers rather than technology or theory?”
“I didn’t believe it at first either.”
Raphael answered calmly.
“But the way they tried to borrow my magic theory was clearly a preparation for using humans as research subjects.”
“….”
“The theory I lectured was about the process of creating a test case that replicates the biological information array through artificial modeling of magical power. And that was definitely….”
Are you saying that this was a preparatory work to use Evan Bylan himself as a research subject?
Certainly, if that is the case, it is understandable how the Bylon Institute could be established without Bylon.
Lennok was also thinking that the reason the Central Council established this laboratory was to study something more dangerous than public magic.
Moreover, the reason why this fact was made public and the information was widely spread at the same time as the establishment of the research institute was –
“You deliberately released the information to bring out Evan Bylan.”
Lennok, who was lost in thought, muttered.
“Did you think you would react in some way if you were aware of the existence of a research institute named after you?”
“It is rumored that Professor Bylon is so reclusive that he rarely appears at public events.”
Raphael answered.
“Isn’t this a person who refuses to communicate even after publishing a century-old paper on public magic? “As far as I know, there are over 20 professors who have been snooping around Balkan academia wanting to meet him in person.”
“….”
A laboratory created to study Evan Bylan and the [Wizard training plan] that was going on there.
The very fact that there is a connection between those two facts is absurd from Lennok’s perspective.
However, because of this, we need to open the data even more and check its contents right here and now.
If you don’t check why the city council did this while establishing the research institute, you won’t be able to know the intention.
“The reason I accepted the invited lecture was because I expected to meet Professor Bylan at the research institute. But I never thought it would turn out like this…”
Raphael muttered as if he was lamenting and glanced at Lennok, who had his back turned.
“I would like to meet Professor Bylon and talk about his research perspectives. If you, the owner of the magic tower, can arrange a meeting, I am willing to cooperate-”
Damn!!
At that moment, a dazzling spark exploded in the middle of the dark cavity of the power plant.
The professor, who was frozen and unable to even react, was about to be swept away by the sparks that surged like a fountain.
Lennoc grabbed the spark that was exploding in the air with his bare hands.
I’m going to fall in love!!!
Lennok muttered as he watched the glowing strands of electricity writhe from his grasp.
“The condition of the facility is worse than I thought.”
“Huh huh…!!”
When he squeezed the spark and extinguished it, Raphael let out a breath that had finally stopped.
Lennok said, checking the location where the current burst out.
“Perhaps because it is an old facility, the disconnection is quite serious. Electricity production is being disrupted due to short circuits.”
Among the electric wires located in power generation facilities, many are damaged or broken.
As Lennok increased the power production of the entire facility and increased output, the damaged wires could not withstand it.
“I didn’t expect a problem like this to arise since the power generation facility supplies power to the research center… but this is unexpected.”
“I heard that the research lab isn’t completed yet. I think I heard that there are plans to prepare a separate power supply facility in the future….” “
….”
The power production capacity of the power generation facility itself is not short of the output that Lennok wants.
However, if the power supply becomes unstable due to damage to wires or short circuits, it becomes difficult to view the data restored by Lennok.
“I can’t help it. “We’ll talk about Evan Bylan later.”
As Lennok said this, he knelt on one knee on the control room floor and folded his hands.
“I convert my magical energy into electric power and use it to view data. “It would be better than having problems arising from using unstable power.”
“You mean to replace magic power with electric power?”
Raphael asked in surprise.
“what is the problem?”
“I know you are a very powerful lightning wizard, but the power used in mechanical devices is no different from magic. Even basic properties such as voltage would not be correct.”
“I heard you are unfamiliar with magical engineering equipment, but I know that too.”
“…Even now, I am in a position to teach students.”
“I will take care of that.”
“No, more than that, if there is no promise to let you meet Professor Bylon, why should I help with their plan?”
Lennok, ignoring Raphael’s grumbling, raised his magic power onto his folded hands.
The important thing is not to start with the idea of taking shape and solidifying it with magical power.
If there is a strong intention, the modeling of magical power itself will inevitably follow.
A wish so strong that the will becomes a real physical force and manifests itself in reality.
And that moment when the enormous amount of calculations inevitably involved in the process are sequentially processed.
Kiiiiing…!!
“Geographic mass sculpture!!!!”
Raphael, who had a sullen expression on his face, opened his eyes wide as if they were tearing apart at the sight of Lennok making the connection device himself.
Hayward’s unconscious body was shaken by Raphael’s startled scream and strange vibrations echoing from all directions.
Despite the commotion going on around him, Lennok maintained his concentration and was in perfect control of himself.
A power converter that only has circuits and connectors removed from the bottom of the instrument panel.
As I slowly remove my hand, the converter covered in pure white light hardens and takes shape.
Damn it!!
“This… will be enough.”
He was so concentrated in chanting the spell that even Lennok’s words slowed down slightly for a moment.
But even that brief wait was nothing compared to Raphael’s astonishment.
“This is ridiculous…! “How can this level of mass projection be achieved with only artificial magic modeling without catalysts or base materials!!!”
Raphael, who had stopped with his mouth wide open, approached Lennoc as if possessed, his hands shaking.
“This goes directly against the magic theory I lectured on today. Even if you were a great wizard, it would be impossible in theory to install such complex machinery at once…!”
“My head is pounding… I need you to be quiet.”
Although a more complex process had to be performed than when mimicking a researcher’s biometric information, the burden itself was much less.
This is because the equipment that had to be made in the first place was a conversion device based on Evan Bylan’s magic and power substitution theory.
In addition, the experience of working with various machines while working as a craftsman at Machina under the name of Lyman is also helpful.
Slam!!
Lennok put his hand on the disc, which was inserted into the waist-high converter.
“Convert my horsepower into electric power, connect to the disk, and view the data. The amount of horsepower required is probably…”
Lennok closed his mouth and quickly calculated the expected horsepower consumption in his head.
50 minutes if a star-level computing device is used. If you replace it with magic, it would be roughly equivalent to firing level 6 military magic without stopping for 8 minutes.
Even for Lennok, the magical power consumption is not light enough to be a burden.
Lennok said after disassembling the computer parts in the control room and skillfully attaching them to the conversion device and even attaching a screen to complete the remodeling.
“Because the capacity is so large, finding the necessary information will be a task. “I will leave it to you to sort and select the data.”
“Oh, I understand. But perhaps…”
“Perhaps?”
“If it’s not rude, I can just touch it once… It’s okay…”
A middle-aged man’s burdened expression, his eyes shining as if he wanted to study the conversion device made by Lennok right now.
Even as he quickly opened and closed his hands, he was struggling to see if he had any sense of reason left.
Although he was afraid of fasting, he was more interested in Evan Bylan, which was completely opposite to before.
Lennok stood up, taking out a cigar from his pocket.
“If only for a moment.”
“Thank you so much!!”
He quickly took Lennok’s place and looked frantically at the connection equipment created with magical power.
Raphael, who was unfamiliar with mass magic, would probably know very little, but even that did not seem to be very important to him.
Leaving Raphael, who was constantly turning the converter while letting out strange sighs, Lennok turned to Hayward, who was lying on the ground.
He stands in front of Hayward, who holds a lit candle in his hand and closes his eyes.
The researcher is seen exhaling slowly as if he is asleep with his eyes closed.
Lennog looked at Hayward in silence, then grabbed the tobacco that was in his mouth with his hand –
“….”
“….”
“
I woke up, I woke up!!” Damn it!!”
Hayward, rolling on the floor and shaking his shoulder with one hand, looked back at Lennok with a pale, tired complexion.
“This is absolutely crazy. “You’re not even asking me if I woke up!!!”
“Is there a need to wake up the guy who was pretending to sleep and watching the situation?”
Lennoc, who calmly put the tobacco back in his mouth, nodded at Hayward.
“I know you were awake. “You must have heard about the situation, right?”
“….”
Hayward is the one who invited Raphael to the research institute to lecture on magic theory.
If Raphael’s lecture is deeply related to the lab’s secrets, Hayward must also know details about the lab’s secrets.
It was probably a lie to tell Lennok that I didn’t know anything about the plan to train wizards.
That’s why Lennok kidnapped Raphael, secured Hayward’s safety, and threw him here.
“I… can’t talk.”
Heyward looked withdrawn and averted his gaze, probably because he knew that Lennok had noticed his lie.
“All I can say is that the plan to train wizards was attempted. “Even if I know more than that, I can’t tell you, and even if I don’t know, I can’t say I don’t know.”
“This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that they know something in such a twisted way. “If you’re going to make lame excuses, how about putting some effort into it?”
“Damn it, I’m doing this because I like it…!!”
Hayward shouted something and then closed his eyes tightly with an expression of giving up on everything.
“…Yes, I lied to you. If you want to kill me, kill me. Rather than taking responsibility for this incident, it might be better for me to die here by your hands…!!”
“Hmm….”
Lennok cracked the candle and made eye contact with Hayward.
Even if you are a former researcher who is not well-known in the public eye, if you know about fastness, you would have heard about its notoriety.
Still, are you saying that he would choose to die rather than reveal his plan?
That may be because the way the Central Council deals with traitors does not end with just one party.
This may be because revenge, which is more painful and painful than death, can be achieved through the influence of the Central Council.
In some ways, you could say that this is the difference between the city’s highest authority and Lennok, who had built up a reputation on his own –
“….”
The researcher desperately tried to maintain his expression while waiting for Lennok’s answer with a very nervous expression.
Lennok stared at Hayward and activated his magical eyes.
“Ugh…!!”
“You still seem to be mistaken about something.”
Lennok’s eyes sank coldly as he saw Hayward clutching his neck, unable to breathe just by being looked at.
“Am I doing something wrong to you right now? say it.”
“….”
“Who is it that set up a research center in Evan Bylan’s name and is hiding behind it and conducting secret research?”
“….”
“Why do you think they don’t just kill all the bugs like you and burn down the lab?”
“That’s…”
Hayward’s mouth closed heavily as he finally understood what Lennok was saying.
This is because he has keenly realized that his actions at the Fast Research Institute so far do not live up to his horrifying notoriety.
Why did Shim-rei come into the lab disguised as a researcher?
Even after their identity is discovered, are they concentrating on restoring data instead of killing all the witnesses?
Contrary to rumors that his madness has spread to his bones, he is able to have a normal conversation with the researcher who kidnapped him.
There is only one motive behind all of Hayward’s actions so far, which do not fit the notoriety he has seen.
Hayward finally understood that the matter about Evan Bylan was just as important to Fast.
“If you want to kill me, kill me?”
Lennok whispered to Hayward, who was silent.
“I can make you beg to die.”
“…!!”
“Who knows better than me how fragile and fragile the human body is?”
Looking at Hayward, who was shaking in shock, Lennok’s eyes slowly swept down between his eyes.
“Nevertheless, the reason I am giving you such a kind explanation is not because I feel it is useful or valuable to you.”
Lennok said, slowly standing up.
“Because I am not the only one involved in this research institute.”
“….”
“If you understand, please cooperate. “I plan to start right away.”
Hayward’s fallen body is forced to stand up as if held by an invisible hand.
Lennok turned his back on the researcher, who was weakly maintaining his balance.
“Help classify and organize the restored data with Raphael. “Even if you can’t open your mouth, you won’t say that even your hands are tied, right?”
Hayward did not respond, but calmly followed Lennok and stood in front of Raphael.
The gaze naturally fell on Raphael, who was crouching down and frantically looking at the connection device.
“…Professor Raphael.”
“Oh doctor. “Look at this!!”
Raphael held out the conversion device he was holding to Hayward, his eyes shining brightly.
“The result of modeling magic power and projecting it in the form of mass is so sophisticated… I can’t believe it even when I see it with my own eyes. “It is literally nothing short of a miracle that something like this can exist in reality even for a moment…!!”
“….”
“Come here and touch me for a moment. It is difficult to appreciate the greatness of this without directly projecting the magic structure-”
“Come out.”
“Ugh!!”
Lennok bounced Raphael away with a light shockwave and immediately placed his hand on the converter and began to increase his magic power.
Wooooow!!!
The magic power that rotates violently in the wizard’s body is completely poured into the converter without even a single ounce of leakage.
The manipulation was so precise and perfect that even Raphael and Hayward, who were standing next to him, could not feel Lennok’s magic.
Kiiiiing…!!
The moment the replaced power flowed into the disk inserted into the upper part of the converter, the files contained on the disk began to appear one after another on the temporarily attached screen.
Raphael, who had been helplessly dragged out, stood in front of the screen scratching his cheek with an embarrassed expression.
“Ugh, I was so excited. “If you think about it, there was still work left to do.”
Hayward, who was looking at Raphael with astonishment, asked.
“Is everything okay, Professor?”
“What do you mean?”
“According to the request of fastness-”
“Oh, you mean that.”
Raphael spoke as if he had just thought of something.
“Now that you think about it, it doesn’t really have anything to do with me, does it?”
“…what?”
“I took an oath of secrecy, but that was only because I thought this institute was established with Professor Bylan’s approval.”
Raphael cleared his throat and shook his head.
“I accepted the offer because I believed I would be able to meet Professor Bylon, but it would be difficult for things to turn out like this. “I have accepted Fast’s offer.”
“….”
Hayward, who could not hide his absurd expression, soon closed his mouth and turned his head.
This is probably because I know that there is no point in letting out my accumulated emotions.
But Lennoc felt like he could finally understand what kind of person Raphael was.
‘Are you the type where curiosity takes precedence over morality and ethics? The temperament itself is very strong.’
Raphael is quite humane, even for a high-ranking wizard, and is well-known enough to have followers.
Aside from being afraid of Lennok, he is willing to give up his research log to save the druid.
But now, on the contrary, they have completely forgotten about the druids and are only concentrating on indulging in the mass magic shown by Lennok.
Even though the nature itself does not seem that bad, the words and actions are so incoherent that it is hard to understand.
That may be because curiosity and interest are given higher priority to Raphael than any other factors.
If there is something that sticks to you, your perspective becomes narrow enough to ignore everything else.
In one sense, this is an excellent trait for a researcher, but in the other sense, it is also a type of distortion.
That’s probably why Raphael was able to join Pandemonium with the decent title of Professor Yangji.
While Lennok was lost in thought, the control room where the three people were standing began to faintly tremble.
Rumbling…!!
A slight sound as if the entire mountain ridge was shaking.
As Raphael and Hayward’s expressions changed slightly, Lennok coughed and said.
“It looks like the city council has moved. “I’m sure you’ve figured out where I’m hiding by now.”
“It will take some time to view all the data… is that okay?”
“Don’t worry and focus on your work. “I will stop it.”
Raphael’s expression changed strangely at Lennok’s calm answer.
“…the entire power generation facility by yourself? “You mean like that right now?”
No matter how excellent your fastness is, is it possible to fight against a special agency while supplying the magic power needed for the conversion device?
Moreover, it is not only consuming a small amount of magical power, but magical power equivalent to that of a military rank is being pumped into the conversion device almost every second.
It would be better to stop work for a moment and not kill all the superhumans of the special agency-
“No way…!”
Lennok chuckled as Hayward, whose complexion was pale, shook his shoulders in shock.
“If I had intended to do that, I wouldn’t have left a witness at the lab.”
“….”
A retort that is nothing short of bloody. What was even more frightening was that the arrogant answer did not sound like a lie.
“What I want to do is not to cover up this incident by killing all the people involved in the research institute. Rather, we are in a position where we have to reveal it and find out.”
“….”
“But it is true that protecting the facility alone is inefficient and cumbersome. It would be best to let the special agency step down on its own.”
“But how can I with a body that is consuming so much magical energy…”
“Is there really a need to use my magical energy?”
Lennok responded by stepping on the thick wire and lifting it up.
“There’s a lot of unnecessary electricity here, like sea water.”
“I know what you’re talking about-”
Surprise!!
With a single wave of the hand, the wire was cut cleanly and the cross section was exposed, and an enormous amount of light current burst out of the cross section.
The wire managed by the horsepower built-in equipment is completely cut, and the impact causes it to bounce back even more strongly.
It’s a joke!!!
“What are you doing!!”
“If you forcibly disconnect a wire in a place like this, you cannot avoid an explosion!!!”
The moment when Hayward was frightened by the discharge of sparks due to a short circuit that was incomparable to before, he retreated.
Lennok took off his gloves and thrust his bare hand into the cross section of the wire without any hesitation.
Tsutsutsutsu!!!!
“Wow!!”
Hayward covers his eyes and ears with both hands and lowers his head.
Despite the fierce sparks that turned his vision completely white, Lennok did not even bat an eye.
Raphael said that the Lightning Wizard’s lightning would be different from his actual power, but he was wrong.
The nature of lightning, including voltage and resistance, is a flow of change that a wizard must be able to handle well.
No matter where and in what form it exists, if it is the power of lightning, it is possible to forcibly incorporate it under Lennok’s will.
Even if it cannot be used for delicate tasks such as data viewing, under the rules of magic that Lennok has been using as if he were breathing –
fetish class unique magic,
source hierarchy, fortification construction,
faaaaaaa!!!
A wave of electricity erupted from the cross section of the electric wire, instantly covering the power generation facility and surging.
The blue ripples that exploded and swirled around the entire power plant took shape in an instant, changing the space itself.
“What is this…”
The moment Raphael muttered, looking around blankly at the unrealistic miracle that changed the nature of the entire facility.
Deployment of a simple fortress
[Above: Cheondungap Yongseong (遷屯甲龍星)]
[Ooooh!!!]
A toad’s head in the shape of a bright blue lightning soared above the facility and let out a bizarre roar.
