Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 162

train (2)

Skilled, la… … .

It’s a modifier that doesn’t seem to mean anything at first glance, but it’s a word that Lennok can never let go.

In a way, that must be the word that best describes the wizard Lennok.

But instead of being taken aback by those words, Lennox smiled leisurely.

Not even for a second had I been negligent about hiding myself.

Aside from simply changing his appearance and transforming his magic pattern, he plays a completely different person by changing the texture of his skin and the perfume he uses.

It was impossible for a mage from a laboratory to peek at the essence that was never revealed even during a life-and-death battle.

If Lennok’s appearance makes you feel extraordinary, it’s probably because of other factors, not because you’ve realized his talent or identity.

“It’s fun.”

That bold reasoning and bold words and actions sounded rude at first glance, but Lennok rather liked them.

A foolish way of dealing and an attitude towards people. However, despite this, he possesses the sharp intuition and judgment ability of a wizard.

At the same time, that confident attitude of seeking cooperation from strangers without hesitation overlapped with some of the freelancers Lennok knew.

“Can you tell me why you thought so?”

Cassia answered right away.

“Well, it wasn’t difficult… … . First of all, the life response to my senses is quite blurry. For now, this is the first.”

“… … .”

“Surely, the reason why I can’t feel his presence even though he’s sitting right in front of me is because he’s a wizard who is so skilled at mana manipulation, or someone who is capable enough to have an artifact like that. It’s obvious just by looking at this.”

“second is?”

“The tobacco you are smoking.”

Cassia laughed.

“It’s from Plumber Orchard, isn’t it? I know it too… … . Because of my personal circumstances, I have been looking around for similar items.”

Are you saying that he went looking for narcotic tobacco to find the painkiller he needed for his sick body?

It wasn’t surprising since we know that Bayla suffers from some kind of rare disease.

“Also, the beginning of the year was undoubtedly a red scarlet… … . It’s a pretty high-end product that unlucky old man complains about how difficult it is to make. If you think about the nature of the inspiration you received from the customers, you, who received the item, must be quite talented.”

“… … .”

Plumber’s Orchard… … . Lenok quickly recalled his memory and was convinced.

Remembering that he met the Antares Mercenary Office at the Botanical Garden at that time, it seems that his goods are popular in the market regardless of whether it is sunny or dark.

In the midst of all that, it wouldn’t be strange if Cassia was among his guests.

However, her discernment in recognizing the Red Scarlet and concentrating on Lennok’s identity is not an ordinary level.

The old man in the orchard is probably not an ordinary person, considering the meaningful words thrown by the seemingly infinitely light old man.

I was thinking that I should have a separate talk with that inspiration someday, but it wasn’t something I had to do now.

Lennox laughed softly after hearing that.

He put the tobacco in his mouth between his fingers and replied slowly.

“You have very sharp judgment. Indeed, he is the person who serves the director of the Bayla Research Institute on the frontlines.”

“… … .”

This time it was her turn to shut up.

It was quite a sight to see the expression on her face at the moment when her identity was revealed in reverse, after having made a difficult turn and guessed Lennok’s talent.

I could see the corners of her mouth twitching and quivering, even faintly visible under the mask.

“Uh, sorry. who am i… … .”

She lost her composure for a moment and tried to run away, but immediately realized that it meant nothing and hung her head.

Instead, it slowly began to shed its sharp mana.

Weing… … !!

“… … What are you? Did you come after me?”

It was not an incomprehensible reaction.

“I think you are misunderstanding something.”

However, Lennok slightly tilted his head at the sensitive reaction.

“If you hadn’t talked to me first, I wouldn’t have had to give you this answer.”

“that… … !”

“We wouldn’t have been caught off guard by saying things that seemed to reveal each other’s identities.”

It was Cassia who spoke first and brought Lennok, who seemed annoyed, into a conversation, so what could she say?

It was she who even tried to lead the conversation by force, bringing up ideas related to talent.

“… … .”

“I said earlier that trains that use unofficial routes are bound to become targets, but considering their affiliation, this is a conflict between research institutes after all… … . In addition, it must be a political operation that is related to the health of the director of the Byla Research Institute.”

Cassia’s complexion turned white at Lennok’s words that struck her to the core.

“How the hell did you do that… … .”

Lennok said as if to put an end to the conversation.

“The things you worry about won’t happen. The reason I’m heading to the Dominion probably has nothing to do with your personal circumstances.”

“… … You, you are a much more dangerous person than I thought.”

In the end, it’s Seo-soon’s problem. It was impossible for her, who had first asked for Lennok’s cooperation, to suspect Lennok now.

Cassia sighed. But she hadn’t regained her composure yet, and her fingertips were trembling faintly.

“Anyway, that’s all I want to say. I hope you make a decision as soon as possible. I had to go see if I could ask others to cooperate… … .”

“It won’t be necessary.”

“yes?”

“Because among the people on this train right now, we are the only two with plausible fighting skills.”

Even before entering the train, Lennok had checked all the passengers inside and assessed the risks.

The only thing that can fight like a battle here is a cyborg who replaced his entire body with a machine and a gentleman wearing a fedora. And about one gunner who occupied the rearmost car of the train alone and sat and snored.

And the magic or momentum felt from the three was not very impressive.

“It might be better to hand over all the artifacts you brought to me and ask me to solve the problem.”

“Hey, I know your intuition is pretty sharp, but-”

Seeing Lennok’s sullen face, Cassia, in a fit of rage, was about to snap at him.

Goooooong!!

A heavy impact echoed from the back of the train.

It wasn’t a noise that came from close enough to directly interfere with the operation, but it could never be a coincidence as I was running on the railroad in the middle of the day.

“… … .”

As if the two wizards had promised, magic detection was activated at the same time.

Realizing the identity of the noise first, Lennok frowned, and Cassia turned her complexion white.

“This… … ”

said Lennok with a sigh.

“It looks like the friends you were worried about have arrived.”

A few kilometers in radius the train runs.

More than thirty signs were approaching at high speed.

Perhaps a chase by bike or car, as the speed of approach remains constant and even on average.

It was a collective action that could never be seen without knowing that the train to the Dominion was running at this time and that the scouting party was away.

Yakseon, Jenny, and Jordan are the only ones who know that Lennok is heading to the Philenom Dominion, and they have changed their identities long before departure.

Considering that the crooked man who guided the train was also contacted right before the operation, the possibility that the information was leaked is infinitely low.

If so, the target of those chasing the train now would not be Lenok, but the passenger sitting right next to him.

Cassia, as if thinking the same thing, shook her shoulders with a puzzled expression.

Right now, only two wizards with excellent magic detection skills have noticed, but soon the other passengers will also notice that they have been pursued.

Eventually someone had to step in and fix the situation.

“ha… … ”

It annoys me to have to help with such a thing, but in the end, the train must be safe to arrive at the Dominion.

Even this train runs once a month.

If I miss this moment today, I might have to suck my fingers again in the Balkans.

It was a total turn of events for the train to be destroyed after letting go of Cassia’s circumstances.

Lennok said as he rubbed out the tobacco with only the filter remaining.

“First, explain the situation to the driver and tell him to speed up the train.”

“yes?”

“I think you can also tell me not to stop the train no matter what, and come back and lend a hand.”

Saying that, Lennok rose from his seat.

“I’ll try my hand at the rest.”

“… … all right. I’ll deal with it as quickly as possible and come back.”

Fortunately, she immediately understood what Lennok meant and quickly headed for the front car.

Lennok moved to the farthest car of the train instead of adding a katabuta.

drooling!!

Old, empty rooms.

I see a hairy boy who has fallen asleep peacefully, unaware of this commotion.

Lennok identified the large rifle case lying at his feet and picked it up without hesitation.

He is not a very skilled musketeer, considering that Lennok has not woken up yet even though he deliberately approached him.

It would have been far better for Lennok to pick it up and use it himself, while using it for the purpose of properly concealing his identity.

I sat across from Hairy and calmly held the rifle case in my hand.

The security device attached to the case blocked Lennok, but when Darby was called, the hacking was completed in two seconds and the case was opened.

“hmm… … .”

[Still, like a gunner, he carries pretty good things.]

As Darby said, sitting on Lennok’s shoulder, the object that appeared in the case was considerably better than expected.

Originally used only as a sniper rifle, it seemed that it had been remodeled so that it could be used in urban combat.

A scope with a floating screen, a handle with a biometric recognition system, and a rifle equipped with a laser pointer in various ways made it possible to realize how much effort the hairy boy put into his weapon.

Lennok scratched his cheek, confirming the pure white ivory decoration and even the carefully customized decoration.

“I was thinking of writing and throwing it away… … I need to return it nicely.”

Lennok liked to pick up and use other people’s artifacts and relics, but he wasn’t a robber enough to take things from innocent people.

If you use it for a while and give it back, it should be enough.

“Dabi, release the biometric code.”

[Has confirmed.]

As Lennok grabbed the handle of his ivory rifle, the red light on the screen instantly turned green.

Clap!

Lennok, who lifted it without difficulty, muttered as he peered into the magazine.

“Did it be modified to be compatible with bullets of various calibers? The money must have been broken… … .”

[It is judged that it is not impossible to use the modification combined with the spell. It’s probably the style of investing in your own equipment.]

“Mmm.”

Feeling apologetic for nothing, Lennox cast a simple sleep spell on the hairy boy.

He doesn’t need to know what’s going to happen from now on, so maybe it’s better to get a good night’s sleep.

Lennok, who had left the rear cabin and passed the other passengers wandering around, immediately opened the train door.

Kwaaaa!!

The cold dawn wind rushed into the cabin in an instant, and the noise of the train running on the tracks resonated loudly.

Only the scenery of the meadow passing by quickly in the dark came into my eyes faintly.

“Wait a minute, what are you doing?”

“Are you insane? Close the door quickly!”

“There are some strange people aiming for this train!!”

Even so, it seemed that he noticed how many people among the passengers were capable of detecting magic power, and that the situation was going roughly.

But Lennok, already aware that none of them could help, ignored the words behind him and threw his feet out the door.

“Are you planning to jump off a running train!”

“Ha, but it might have a better chance of surviving.”

“Are you crazy right now?!”

Leaving those who were misunderstood alone, Lennok threw himself out of the train without hesitation.

Dig!

At the same time, using the magician attached to the ceiling of the train to balance the body, cast floating magic on the coat and lift the entire body upward.

Cudangtang!!

“Ugh… … !!”

Although he failed to land and took a wild roll, Lennok managed to get onto the roof of the train.

Darby watched Lennok’s raucous tumble and said nothing. It was a small consideration from the spirit.

Although it became a bit unsightly due to low motor nerves, it achieved its predetermined goal.

Lennok immediately pulled out dozens of more strands of magic thread, firmly fixed the train ceiling and his body, and then held the rifle in his hand to his shoulder.

Clap!

“Dabi, prioritize shooting, please.”

[I give numbers to 37 life-reaction bodies approaching from outside 300m from the rear. 17 units down the left side of the train. 20 bodies are approaching from the upper right at a speed of 70 km/h.]

Doo doo doo… … !!

The exhaust sound faintly audible from far away.

I knew it as soon as I heard it. it was a bike

[coming.]

Boaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Dozens of bikes pushed back the darkness and appeared from the back of the train as soon as Darby finished his words.

Perhaps in order not to leave traces, you can get a glimpse of the details from the appearance of the headlights not even turned on.

Watching them speed up without hesitation, it seems that they haven’t seen Lennok on the roof of the train yet.

First of all, let’s deal with the guy who tries to get on the train.

As I brought my eyes to the scope, I naturally raised my mana.

[Aim correction]

[precision shooting]

[attachment]

Weiying… …

The sense that magic power rotates inside a firearm is different.

Perhaps because it was a custom-made product, it seemed to have a higher magical conductivity than any other firearm that Lennok owned.

In an instant, the rifle that absorbed the three shooting assist magics started to glow dimly and make a low sound.

Lennok immediately aimed the blunt weapon in his hand at the first bike that was about to break down the train door.

Feeling the cold night breeze as it is, I pulled the trigger.

As soon as the unfamiliar recoil caught on his fingers, the muzzle spewed fire.
