Drug-Eating Genius Mage - Chapter 959

The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 959

Forbidden (14)

Feisha, who declared without hesitation, sneered as she looked at Felix, who had fallen at her feet.

“This new head has nothing to enjoy or achieve, even if it means transcending hierarchy. Does that mean he is an ascetic who is free from all desires? “That’s not it either.”

“….”

“It’s half-baked. You’re only prepared to give up your life, and you’re not prepared for anything else. Are you going to make this guy level 8?”

Feixia, stomping on Felix’s side, shook her head.

“For an archmage’s experiment, it’s boring. “If it weren’t for Antares, he would have recommended killing me right here.”

“well. “I think differently.”

Lennok shook his head.

“Dorae (道來) is an ascendant who has reached level 9 in the hierarchy of berserkers. “It may be said that one was born wrong, but the hierarchy was not false.”

The Cenotaph of Yorta. Lennok, who encounters Dorae’s corpse in the place called the Sanctuary of Curse, knows that Dorae was originally a vessel used as the body of the cult leader.

The reason he was able to become an ascendant was because he embodied the existence of the religious leader, even if only for a moment.

However, it is also clear that Dorae eventually rose to level 9 and became an ascendant.

It is also true that Dorae’s talent had the same potential as that of an ascendant, so he was able to take on the role of a vessel for the religious leader.

Therefore, Lennok did not think negatively of Felix being swayed by the magic of arrival.

“I see potential in Felix at the point where he can hold out without being completely consumed by the Ascendant’s magic. “I don’t want to dismiss his patience as nothing special.”

“It’s just a baseless wish.”

Feisha sneered.

“You have to want something. There must be something to hope for even if it destroys the completed hierarchy. “This eagle chick is not that kind of great person.”

“That’s because you and I have already reached level 8 and are looking back and ruminating.”

Lennok laughed.

“But looking back, going beyond the level wasn’t necessarily possible with will or desire alone.”

“….”

“Human will and emotions are constantly changing depending on the situation, environment, and conditions… There may be cases where the moment when the high point coincides coincides and is reached.”

Lennok asked Feisha, who was silent, in an odd tone.

“If… we can artificially create [coincidence], don’t you think we can give Felix a boost?”

“It’s hopeful optimism. Do whatever you feel like. “Because it’s none of my business.”

Feisha shrugged her shoulders and turned her body around without hesitation.

“Anyway, if it’s over, I’ll go. “Next time, unless it involves killing someone, don’t call me for trivial chores like this.”

“Who told you to leave work as you please?”

“what?”

The moment Feisha hesitated for a moment and stopped her steps at Lennok’s cold words.

Felix came to his senses belatedly and slowly stood up.

“Uhm….”

It looks funny with a black feather on its forehead, and after looking around in a daze, it comes to its senses.

“Ah, half…!! “Is it over?”

“The magic of arrival has been put to rest.”

Lennok answered.

“It will be difficult to continue training right now.”

“Right….”

Felix then slumped his shoulders with a sullen expression.

“You have no shame. “Even if I ask you to train me, I can’t believe you can’t last even an hour.”

“It’s not the end. “Because there is still something left to do.”

“hmm?”

“That feather.”

Lennok asked, pointing to the black feather on Felix’s forehead.

“Can you feel anything?”

“I can feel it. “Nothing comes to mind right now-”

Felix, who was about to say that, stuttered with a strange expression on his face.

“Now, wait a minute. There’s something in my head… I think I see a strange mansion. “What on earth is this?”

“This is information about the downward coordinates of Anathema’s home and the security barrier.”

“….”

“The thing embedded in your forehead is a feather from a phantom beast, an item that can neutralize abnormal symptoms caused by magical power.”

Lennok did not use any special method to calm the magic of arrival that had consumed Felix’s body.

Using the feather left behind by Slaine Onyx, the magical power of Dorae was neutralized with the intention of a phantom beast called the Mediator.

However, in the process, it was also inevitable that the information about Anathema that Slaine had stored in the feather would flow into Felix’s head.

“I’m trying out the special ability I acquired at the meeting, but it’s still difficult to combine it with magic.”

Lennok explained casually.

“I was urgently looking for the items needed to neutralize Dorae’s magic, and I ended up telling you about Anathema’s home.”

“Anathema’s home, what is this…”

“Originally, I was planning to go alone, but now that things have turned out like this, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take a lineman with me.”

After checking the time, Lennok immediately picked up his coat and looked away.

“Today’s training ends here. In the remaining time, I will go looking for Anathema’s forbidden weapon.”

* * *

“When I killed Anathema, who had become an apostle, I received her assets in accordance with the rules of the temple.”

Shoot!!

Bad-smelling sewage flows beneath your feet.

Flies buzzed above the dim lantern, and strange cries echoed beyond the dark tunnel.

“In particular, it is said that there is a forbidden weapon made in the central city sealed in his home.”

“Fuck, it’s fucking dirty.”

While Feisha was spitting out her double curse and kicking her feet, Lennok, who continued her steps without paying any heed to her, spoke.

“According to what Slaine Onyx said, Anathema left her home somewhere in his Balkan basement.”

“….”

“The downward coordinates given by Slaine were quite deep, so it was not easy to find an area with such facilities underground. However, after searching the outskirts, the location I found was-”

“You mean it was here.”

Big city Balkan. Sluice gate No. 3 of the East Underground Waterway in Area 55.

District 55 was a candidate site planned as a new water source for the city when the city expansion development plan was being promoted.

Most of the area is designed with an emphasis on underground water, so if you only consider the size of the sewage system, it is one of the largest in the Balkans.

However, the problem is that there are several illegally built factories right next to Area 55.

There are many factories that ignore the city government’s environmental regulations and generously discharge all kinds of chemicals and wastewater.

Among other things, the scenery of the eastern underground water pipe, which is close to the industrial area, was literally hellish.

Damn…!!

Every time I take a step, dark green liquid sticks to the bottom of my shoes, and acidic droplets drip onto my head.

The bubbles rising above the yellow-brown wastewater flowing through the sewer contained an acrid stench that made it difficult to breathe.

“…I want to burn it all.”

“It’s hard to breathe.”

Fei Sha held her nose with a frown, and Felix closed her beak tightly and even closed her eyes.

Lennok, who casually raised his gaze between them, muttered.

“But the contamination of the eastern underground water supply is at a serious level. The southern underground water supply was not like this….”

“Have you ever been to this hellish place?”

“Before. For a little while in the early days of freelancing. “That was the first time I met Mad Manson.”

In response to Felix’s words, Lennok snapped his fingers, and a ball of pure white light bounced over the wastewater and illuminated the sewer.

“However, the southern underground water supply was not at this level. “It may have been because I visited when the weather was cold at the time, but…”

As Lennok said that, he turned his gaze towards the bundle of light he had thrown.

A lump of slime protruding from beneath the wastewater swallowed up the light bulb.

[Shut it!!]

with a plop!!

A hideous figure resembling a rotten hippopotamus with no eyes or nose.

The slime monster, which muttered its mouth for a while, soon disappeared under the wastewater.

Lennok, who had been watching the monster, shrugged his shoulders.

“I don’t think there has ever been such a strange monster.”

“….”

Felix, who was standing with a complicated expression, lamented softly.

“No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a place you would stay for a long time.”

“Hey, wizard. “I can’t take it anymore.”

Feisha, with veins rising from her forehead, raised her spear.

“I’m going to break the ceiling and make a ventilation shaft, so don’t stop me.”

“no. “Be patient.”

“What are you holding on to, fuck!! “I can’t see people choking to death right now!”

“Is that the kind of voice that would come from someone dying of suffocation?”

Lenok looked at Fei Xia, who was screaming loudly enough to make the entire sewer ring, with a sour look, and shook her head.

“It is an outdated facility that was built decades ago. “If you shatter the sewer ceiling here, it wouldn’t be surprising if we were all buried alive.”

“Isn’t it the same whether you die from rotting lungs or get buried?”

“Okay, get ready.”

Lennok said and pointed to the other side of the sewer.

“Even if it’s not a sewer, there’s a lot of stuff here that needs to be destroyed.”

“what?”

[Gurgling…!!!]

A grotesque lump of flesh was running towards the party from the other side of the sewer at incredible speed.

A hideous appearance that looks like a mixture of human eyes, nose, ears and mouth.

It is similar to the flesh monster of the church we encountered at the meeting, but its specific shape is very different.

Felix, who belatedly realized that it was sewn together with human skin, hardened his face.

“That’s…”

“There’s no way the monsters living in the dark sewers have good eyesight.”

Lennok explained.

“Of course, it will react sensitively to light, sound, and vibration, so it will hear your voice and come running.”

“Fuck, you shouldn’t have told me that sooner!!”

“Anyway, if we want to find Anathema’s house, we have to clean the eastern underground water pipe.”

Lennok nodded, helping the convulsing Feisha.

“It’s time to work. “Move quickly.”

“…I will definitely kill you someday!!!”

Feisha, who was spitting out two curses and trembling, rushed towards the monsters along with the trembling Felix.

* * *

“Arrived. “This is the sewer power room.”

Eastern underground water supply.

A huge iron gate located at the end of the waterway that was blocked by slime monsters.

Although the surface is worn away due to a lot of rust, the pipes buried nearby prove what kind of place this is.

“There must be a system terminal nearby that opens the door.”

“…Pooh.”

“Hiccup.”

Behind Lennok’s back as he looked in front of the iron door, there was a lot of shredded slime scattered throughout the hallway.

The image of Fei Xia exhaling with her entire body covered in sticky, slightly acidic mucus.

Felix was also hiccuping while holding a hammer covered in slime.

said Feisha, who was nervously cleaning up the mucus on the blade of the spear.

“Hey, bird head.”

“…I’m listening.”

“You were trying to work with me earlier.”

Feisha looked at Felix with a cold smile.

While fighting to protect Lennok, who was investigating the sewer system, Felix was pointing out that he was trying to match Feisha’s speed.

“You don’t even know the topic of this and you want to go after it in a rude way?”

“I went out of my way to help my class, not you.”

Felix answered calmly.

“I don’t like you either, but for the sake of the class, I think we need at least some cooperation.”

“You don’t understand what I’m saying. “Are you going to be wiping after others like that when you die?”

“….”

“Do it selfishly. “Don’t worry about anything else, just fight and kill.”

Feisha’s eyes sparkled in the darkness of the sewer.

“I can’t believe the guy who wants to use the magic power of a berserker is still acting pretentious. “Don’t you still know what a precious opportunity it is to have that wizard help you?”

“If you say that, you value Ban more highly than anyone else.”

Felix answered calmly.

“I never thought of myself as someone who would bow down obediently even after being defeated.”

“….”

There isn’t much contact between Feisha and Felix, but that doesn’t mean they don’t know each other.

Feisha Grisburn, who committed a brutal massacre on Deadrise’s side during the civil war.

The bad relationship between her Faisha and Antares, who defeated her in a one-on-one decisive battle.

Of course, Felix, who was with Antares, also knew what kind of person Feisha was.

“What you didn’t even do to Antares, you are now doing by Van’s side.”

Felix’s eyes shining profoundly as he looked down at Feisha.

“Can I think that you were that deeply impressed by the class?”

“Damn my impressions, what nonsense… Do you think I would feel that kind of appreciation for a wizard like that?”

Feisha smiled coldly.

“I’m just cooperating with this guy because the situation has gone so fucking wrong. “If she wasn’t that woman in the first place, she wouldn’t be like this-”

“The woman?”

The moment Felix asked as if he had guessed something, and Feisha frowned grimly.

“there.”

Lennok knocked on the iron door and looked away.

“Don’t stand idly by and step back.”

Good!!

The heavy iron door opened wide, revealing a dusty power room.

Huge engines and pipe equipment stretching tens of meters. Instrument panel and cylinder that should inform the status of the power room.

Spider webs piled up in layers in the middle of the power room cover the entire facility like a wide curtain.

“Wait a minute, half.”

Felix, who had followed Lennok into the power room, muttered as he pulled at the spider web spread over his head.

Felix’s expression suddenly hardened as he looked at the spider web that stuck between his fingers.

“The viscosity of spider silk is strong. It hasn’t been long since I pulled it out. Probably around here-”

“Look up, idiot.”

Ki kick!!

A huge spider hanging from the ceiling of the power room looked down at the three people and let out a bizarre howl.

A hideous figure with human skin wrapped all over it like clothes, with several eyes blinking rapidly.

“…this.”

“You really look like shit.”

Feisha chuckled.

“Is it a trend for the monsters who live here to sew human skin as clothes?”

“They lived long enough to learn ways to intimidate intruders.”

Lennok said.

“It also means that this underground water supply has been neglected for a long time.”

Kikiki kick!!

The moment it sensed the magic power gathering at the wizard’s fingertips, the spider’s legs moved at an invisible speed.

Spiders moving on spider webs installed in all directions of the power room rushed towards the spot where the group was standing.

Fei Xia turned her head with an annoyed look.

“Who will do it? No, bird head. “You do it.”

“I tried to do that even if you didn’t say it-”

“I will do it.”

Renok stepped forward, raised one hand and extended his hand toward his web.

“An innate ability inherited from Anathema. “After the processing was completed, I wanted to test something.”

The Eight Trigrams of Later Heaven, which symbolize the change of all things. Among them, it is an innate ability to deal with the most disorderly changes.

In order to deal with this ability that has reached the extreme of relativity, with no standards at all, Lennok has been making constant adjustments since the meeting ended.

Keyee!!!

The moment when the magic formation floating behind Lennok was spinning violently, unable to overcome its speed and turning into a powerful halo.

With the sound of sharp glass breaking, time began to slow down.
