Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 890
Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 890:
Eyes that See Destiny (26)
“If there was a way to escape the tower, I wouldn’t have used such a cumbersome method.”
A cold voice echoed from the hallway above the stairs.
“It’s still in the tower. “Let’s start by calling only those people who have had direct conversations with the lighthouse keeper.”
“….”
Area 49’s Magic Tower of Fastness. Item division located on floor 8 above ground.
Lapis was hiding under a cart piled with items, listening to Jenny’s voice.
It took less than three minutes to restore the internal facilities of the magic tower that had been blacked out, organize personnel, and begin the search.
The response was quick and agile enough to pass over the gap that Lapis had managed to create after thinking about it for several days with a brief disturbance.
But even though she knew this would happen, Lapis had to start escaping in front of Jenny.
A brief gap caused by a power outage in the tower’s facilities.
It was virtually impossible for Lapis to be free in just that one moment.
With Lapis always under surveillance, there is no way to escape the siege.
Therefore, Lapis planned to create an opportunity by directly selecting the watcher.
Zenithia, who is in charge of managing the tower, is a person whose magical aptitude and aptitude are not that high, regardless of her abilities.
If you can escape from a unique situation with Jenny, you can temporarily be free from the tower’s surveillance.
‘You can’t move. ‘If you move…’
Lapis, who has the supernormal ability of sight-seeing, reacts very sensitively to other people’s gaze and senses.
He recognized the moment his pursuers caught his eye and concentrated on concealing his presence, so he hasn’t been caught yet.
That didn’t last long either.
Shake!!
Someone started pulling the cart that Lapis was hiding in and moving it inside the branch.
Once you enter the branch, it becomes easier to avoid the pursuers’ gaze, but getting out of the hallway becomes more difficult.
But even though Lapis knew that fact, she crouched inside the cart.
Jump and jump.
Someone moves the cart into the branch, closes the door, and walks back here.
He reaches into the cart and begins to rummage around, as if looking for something he needs.
“….”
I close my eyes and wait for an opportunity without even breathing.
Haven’t been caught yet. If you use your supernormal ability to subdue others before they get their attention –
Tuk.
The moment when the veil covering her head was removed and Lapis immediately tried to raise her magic power.
“Lapis?”
A woman with an exotic look was looking at Lapis in surprise.
A face I see for the first time. However, Lapis immediately recognized the voice and asked with a puzzled expression.
“Ibelin…?”
“Why are you so surprised? Oh, is it because of this?”
Squeak!!
Evelyn casually smoothed her face, took off her mask, and smiled shyly.
“It’s nothing compared to that guy, but I’m also quite skilled at disguise. “It’s pretty natural, right?”
“You were surprised…!”
As Lapis rubbed her chest, Evelyn put her hand on her waist with an expression of shock.
“Lapis, you were the one who started without saying a word. “Do you know how urgent it was to get the timing right?”
“…I didn’t know exactly when I would be able to speak alone with Zenithia.”
Lapis stood up from inside the cart and answered.
“I thought there was nothing I could do even if I couldn’t help you.”
“Um… honestly, I still don’t know if starting the plan in front of Jenny was the right choice.”
Evelyn said with an uneasy expression.
“He is a very sensitive and sensitive person. In the worst case, you may be caught even after escaping the Balkans.”
“i know.”
Lapis nodded.
“The magic tower facility power supply circuit that Evelyn told me about. “It was restored less than a minute after it stopped.”
“You probably know more about how to manage the tower’s internal facilities than the tower owner, right? “I have a good reputation when it comes to getting things done.”
Evelyn said that and immediately took out a long box.
“Okay then, I have to pack up so let’s go inside.”
“…I actually don’t know if this method is right.”
Lapis slowly sat down in the box with a look of trembling and looked up at Evelyn.
“You’re thinking of disguising it as cargo and transporting it outside the tower… Is this really a solid plan?”
“Unconditionally in terms of going out of the magic tower.”
Crackling!!
Evelyn said as she started putting tape on the box.
“With all the entrances and exits to the tower closed, they will be most wary of you trying to escape through doors or passageways.”
“That is…”
“So we will exploit the loophole in the idea and break the outer wall of the magic tower to escape.”
“….”
“The place to aim for is the research building on the 13th floor, where the strength of the barrier is relatively weak. “It is an area where the barrier was intentionally weakened for the sake of magic research.”
Evelyn said, pointing to the Magic Tower stairs sign posted on the wall of the business branch.
“However, to do that, we need to temporarily neutralize the tower’s domain, which is a really difficult task… Even with your cooperation, it will be very difficult.”
“I guess it’s burdensome for Evelyn to clash with that wizard’s domain.”
In response to Lapis’ surprised question, Evelyn nodded with a serious expression.
“whopping.”
“….”
Evelyn Marcia is an archer who has transcended the hierarchy and reached level 8.
Still, is it really that difficult to neutralize an area that is not even for the Archmage himself?
“It was absolutely impossible for me to do it alone. “The reason this is possible is because of the complex effects of many different circumstances.”
Even though she said so herself, Evelyn’s face looked very strange.
Crackling!!
“Like I said, all I can do is get you out of the tower. “Getting to the fortress is entirely up to you.”
Evelyn asked as she tightly wrapped the box tape around the box and secured it in place.
“If you understand, I’ll start right away. Are you ready?”
“Eveline.”
Lapis answered quietly.
“I don’t have much time anymore.”
“….”
“Considering the circumstances and conditions, there is only one chance to attempt the ritual… Evan, you probably know that.”
How long will the consciousness of Heavenly Gyeon, which exists at the border of the world, wait for Lapis?
In the first place, can Cheongyeon’s residual thoughts forever take over the role of a lighthouse beyond the border?
If that were the case, Cheongyeon would have just assumed the role of observing the open sea forever without having to challenge for ascension.
Lapis also discovered Heaven’s Thought at the border of the world.
There is also the fact that Cheongyeon is waiting for Lapis beyond the border.
What should we do if it was all just a fleeting, accidental miracle?
Isn’t it because Lennok and Lapis understood that fact that they came to Balkan in such a hurry?
“Now we have no choice but to move on the assumption that we will meet each other’s timing. And I…”
Lapis nodded and walked away.
“If Evan doesn’t give up, I believe you will definitely reach it.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Evelyn, who had taped up the top of the box, put on her disguise again and left the room.
“let’s go.”
click!!
Evelyn started walking, pulling a cart containing the box containing Lapis.
The speed is neither too fast nor too slow, while blending in naturally with the crowd.
A fairy tale so perfect that even Lapis, who was aware of the gaze around her, was inadvertently impressed.
“Wait, where are we going? “Can you check what’s inside?”
However, in the meantime, there were mercenaries who kept an eye on Evelyn and spoke to her.
However, Evelyn was not embarrassed and handed over the circular ticket she was holding to the other person.
“This is a message from the Ministry of Finance. “We are planning to deliver documents that have received security designation to the laboratory on the 13th floor. If confirmation is required, please ask for the signature of the person in charge.”
“signature? “What kind of document are you asking the person who checked it to sign?”
One of the mercenaries checked the name written on the circular and frowned.
“Hey, this is…”
“What is it?”
The mercenaries who belonged to the office but were not familiar with Lennok looked at the circular and looked shocked.
“They say it’s a letter that Professor Bylon sent directly to the owner of the tower.”
“Is it okay to open this here?”
At that moment, a woman with navy blue hair pulled up appeared.
Mila, who was walking around the hallway while chewing gum, looked at us and her eyes lit up.
“Greg what’s going on?”
“Mila, I said I need a signature to verify the contents of this…”
“Bring it.”
With a frown on her face, Mila took the circular ticket and wrote down her name.
Mila threw the circular ticket into Evelyn’s arms and nodded towards the sealed box.
“Okay? “Open it.”
“…It’s a letter to your class. Do you mind if we open it?”
“First we have to get that blue-haired kid back.”
Mila responded calmly.
“You don’t have to look at what’s going on.”
“….”
“Rather, you would hate it the most to pass over it carelessly and miss it. If I get angry later, I’ll hit my head and shave it. open it.”
As Evelyn ripped off the tape as if she had no choice, Mila quickly opened the box.
Cold sweat ran down Mila’s forehead as she looked at the pile of papers.
“It’s done. “It was real?”
“Shut the fuck up quickly!!”
“No, I have to check the inside too!”
Mila looked through the box and found that there was nothing wrong, and stood up with a nervous expression.
“There isn’t one…?”
“….”
Mila, who was silently watching Evelyn, cleared her throat and slowly took a step back.
“I’m sorry about that. “Keep doing what you’re doing.”
“Of course.”
“Perhaps you can keep this a secret from the class…”
“Excuse me?”
Evelyn, ignoring Mila’s quiet attempts to appease her, started pushing the cart and turning around the stairs.
The moment I went around the circular hallway and passed the room where I first exited.
Evelyn naturally switched to the second box that was raised behind the door and placed it on the cart.
Faaah!!
Lapis, who had been hiding in a box behind the branch door from the beginning, sent an admiring shout.
[Experts have different ideas. The more urgent you are, the more you should go back?]
“Because you’re not an expert? “On the contrary, I was in a position to catch the guys who were doing this kind of trick.”
Evelyn grumbled in a low voice.
“I just learned the know-how after dealing with them so many times.”
[For something like that, it wasn’t something I had done once or twice…]
“Get ready because I have to do it a few more times. “The number of times is not set, so you have to adjust it while paying attention to what’s going on around you.”
[It’s a detail that can only be learned in practice.]
Evelyn ignored Lapis’ words and started quickly climbing the stairs using a similar technique.
After that, the inspection continued several more times, but Evelyn was surprisingly quick to hide Lapis.
As he is a natural archer, his ability to sense crisis is probably better than that of any other type of superhuman.
“Whew… I’m a little nervous too because I can’t make mistakes.”
If the change fails even once, the hidden Lapis will be revealed to the mercenaries.
‘Come this way.’
Shake!!
That’s how we arrived at the 13th floor of the Magic Tower. A mountain of boxes piled up in front of the hallway where the lab was located and the hallway door.
Evelyn took a deep breath as she stood in front of the closed 13th floor entrance of the tower.
“Okay then…”
“Oh, right. “That person should stop for a moment.”
At that moment, Evelyn’s expression stiffened slightly at the sound of a voice coming from behind her.
Jenny talking on the phone with her cell phone to her ear and pointing accurately at Evelyn.
At Jenny’s gesture, Manson and Belver, who were standing next to her, immediately stood on either side of Evelyn.
“Okay, I’ll ask them to take care of the insurance for the District 47 division that Sebastian warned me about.”
Click.
“You’re not from us, are you?”
Jenny, who finished the call in an instant, looked at Evelyn’s back and asked.
“We selected only those who passed the inspection and selected candidates, and they were the ones who followed the manual the most perfectly.”
“….”
“But that’s not enough. “From the beginning, I was keeping an eye on people who never made mistakes.”
Jenny smiled coldly as she looked at Evelyn who didn’t respond.
“I thought that if the lighthouse keeper tried to escape in front of me, it was because he had a very skilled collaborator.”
At that moment, Lapis understood why Evelyn judged Jenny to be a sensitive person with good sense.
Although it is far from a rational guess, it is a conclusion that cannot be made without blindly trusting one’s own senses and judgment.
However, Jenny proudly proved in front of Eveline Marcia that her judgment was right.
“He must be a very good thief or assassin, right? There was no characteristic in his presence or walking. On the contrary, it is so ordinary that it is scary.”
“….”
“If you were alone, you would have the ability to make up even your mistakes to avoid my eyes. “I guess the reason I couldn’t do that was because I had to get Lapis Falseer to escape safely, right?”
Jenny said as she slowly distanced herself from Evelyn.
A thorough response that completely blocks even the most unlikely variables.
“I faked a mistake to avoid suspicion. If I get caught, it will end there.”
“…Hehe.”
At that moment, Evelyn smiled bitterly as if she couldn’t bear it anymore.
He looked back at Manson and Belver, who were slowly approaching him with their hands on his waist, and shook his head.
“Is this what it felt like?”
“…what?”
Damn it!!
At that moment, the pile of hundreds of boxes behind Evelin’s back swelled.
A change in atmospheric pressure that began without even a warning.
No one realized that it was an artificial expansion created by intentionally suppressing the atmospheric pressure, but everyone realized what was going to happen.
“Get Manson!!”
Jenny quickly shouted and took out a self-defense artifact from her arms.
“I’m trying to block your view. I’m trying to do something!!”
The moment other mercenaries, led by Manson and Wayan, rushed towards the pile of boxes after hearing those words.
Ugh!!!
“…!!”
The box exploded, sending the contents flying out in all directions and completely blocking the view near the 13th floor hallway.
“Lapis.”
Woe!!
A stealthy maneuver so agile that it is difficult to accurately perceive its speed even by looking at it with Lapis’ eyes.
Evelyn whispered, hugging Lapis’ waist in an instant and standing in front of the outer wall at the edge of the hallway.
“run.”
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The outer wall of the Magic Tower shattered, and Lapis’ new form was thrown tens of meters into the air.
