“… … .”
I thought he was showing a lot of momentum, so he must have been one of the magicians of the Blaver Mage Tower.
Lennok remembered Weizen’s words about how he had come to the Dominion to find a medicinal ingredient called fireweed.
Seeing that as soon as Weizen disappeared, another mage from another Mage Tower appeared looking for him, so he was probably looking for something called a flame plant in the Blaber Mage Tower dimension.
“It’s Weizen… … It’s a name I remember.”
Lennok, who quickly completed the calculation, responded calmly without changing a single expression.
“We once worked together picking wild flowers from the same plant. He taught me how to pick flowers, so I remember them clearly.”
“hmm… … .”
For the first time, embarrassment flashed across the young man’s face at Lennok’s words.
It must have been a far cry from what he had in mind.
“I’m not that kind of guy… … .”
A somewhat confused young man’s expression. Well, considering what kind of guy Weizen was, it’s not too surprising.
In order to induce just such a cryptic judgment, Lennok deliberately revealed a little bit of the truth.
When the young man begins to follow his tracks throughout the Dominion, it is eventually known that he stopped by the plant.
If you mention this fact in advance, you will be able to induce the young man’s behavior in that direction.
Sure enough, the young man politely bowed his head and stepped back.
“If it’s something a skilled mage like you says, it’s definitely not a lie. Thank you.”
“It was nothing.”
“If I can find him, I will definitely reward him later.”
“It’s a case, it’s not plausible.”
“no. It looks like my priest is wandering around, possessed by the inferior people again… … . I definitely need to make it right this time.”
“… … .”
The eerie eyes briefly revealed beyond the polite expression prove that he is not a person who has deviated greatly from the superiority of the Mage Tower after all.
Saying that, the young man slowly walked out of the building with ghostly steps.
Grisha, who was looking at his back, grumbled in a small voice.
“Damn it. I wasted my time on nothing.”
“I know that I am not alone, so it is a good harvest.”
“It’s just one more annoying interrupter. What bullshit are you talking about?”
“If we make good use of the fact that the Mage Tower systematically infiltrated the Dominion, it might be possible to cover things up.”
Grisha, who finally understood what Lennok was saying, asked with an absurd expression.
“You’re going to rob the Juicemaster’s safe and lay the blame on them? Is that possible?”
“Rather, it is possible because it is now.”
With Weizen’s new recruit secured, what could he not do?
The power of Common Magic is relatively weak compared to Unique Magic, but in this situation, there is no magic that is more suitable to use in various ways.
Lennok had already conceived to some extent how to frame Weizen for false accusations.
“It’s not something we need to talk about right now. Go inside at once.”
The conversation with the mage dispatched from the Mage Tower was slightly delayed.
If the other person didn’t exactly keep the appointment time, it was enough time to get scared and run away.
The two of them quickly headed to the pre-arranged place.
Back door at the back of the office building.
Heading to the back of the warehouse where the shadows were dark, an elderly middle-aged man was waiting for the two of them with an anxious expression.
“Oh, you are late. I thought I was going to die because my heart was shaking from waiting. Whoa… … .”
“Have you finished checking the location where the object is?”
At Lennox’s words, the man nodded, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“of course. Now, no one covets it, so it’s gathering dust and being forgotten. Even if you take it from the warehouse, no one will notice.”
“Then go.”
The two headed straight to the back gate of the government building with the man at the fore.
“Because I wrote my hand on patrol papers in advance, there won’t be any guards coming and going around here for about 30 minutes. If you finish your business quickly and leave, no one will catch you.”
While saying that, the man took out a small name tag from around his neck and brought it to the security devices throughout the building.
As the green light came on, the security that had been hanging variously inside the building was released, and the door quickly opened.
‘This is the reason Lapis spoke so casually.’
An employee working in a government building. If that is a person who is in charge of a department, the security inside the building is not known.
It won’t be difficult even to access the underground vault of the government building as a member of the artifacts department.
Grisha hadn’t said a word since entering the building.
Instead, she just stared at the back of the man ahead with a complicated gaze.
A man standing in front of the spacious stairs going down to the basement took out a flashlight from his bosom.
“From here on out, it’s a place where you can’t turn on the lights… … Please follow me carefully.”
“don’t worry.”
Even if you don’t do that, you’re maximizing your magic power perception.
The number of people now remaining in government buildings. And among them, you can predict who will be the users of magical power.
That’s why I could roughly guess why the man was saying such a thing.
“… … .”
As Lennok turned to Grisha, she nodded with a confused expression.
It would be correct to think that she, too, had some idea of what was happening and gave a signal.
After going down the long, winding spiral staircase, a dark hallway appeared.
On both sides of the hallway, there were small glass windows and a densely packed doorway to the left and right.
Among them, I grabbed the big and thick iron door and opened it, and a thick dust gushed out from the inside.
“Cool, cool!! sorry for this It’s a warehouse that’s rarely used, so it’s poorly maintained. The items gathered here are actually more like souvenirs than special treasures.”
“A souvenir?”
“That’s right. The item he is looking for this time is of a similar kind. Oh, here you go. Maybe this one.”
The inside of the warehouse was packed with dusty shelves.
A man rummaging through the shelves took something out of the box and handed it to Lennok.
An old rusty statue. It is a model of a landscape with a floating island located between three eyes.
“It is a very unique shape. Does it have any special meaning?”
The man answered Lennok’s words by shining a flashlight all over the shelf.
“Well, it’s an object that symbolizes a long history.”
He continued diligently playing with his hands even after he had already found the object he wanted.
No, I’m just pretending to be kidding. At the same time, he naturally distanced himself from the two.
“Originally, it was meant to commemorate the agreement between the Dominion and the lighthouse to prohibit interference and harm, but… … Today, it has no meaning.”
“… … .”
rattle.
The man stopped at the deepest shelf and said with his back turned.
“Now there is no one left to remember that promise.”
At the same time, the man turned off the flashlight.
As darkness descended into the warehouse, my eyes quickly turned dark.
Lennok said as he took out a cigarette from his bosom.
“Stop acting useless and ask only one question.”
“Tell me.”
“Have you already been in disguise since we contacted you?”
Even the moment I lit the cigarette, I didn’t hear an answer.
“Even if Lapis has been absent from the Dominion for a long time, it makes no sense that she, with her supernatural powers, did not notice the betrayal of the official who put her in such an important department.”
“… … .”
“Maybe they kept him alive until the moment he got in touch with Lapis, and then killed him the moment he was convinced that he was a person from the lighthouse, and disguised himself as his face… … If you’re lucky, you might mistake it for a betrayal. Isn’t it?”
The man, who was silent for a while, slowly raised a hand and brought it to his face.
Jiggly… … !!
The skin on the man’s face peeled off, and a completely different face emerged from the inside.
“If you’ve guessed that far, I can’t keep you alive any longer.”
Faaaaaa!!
As the lights on the ceiling light up all at once, the scenery of the warehouse appears.
At the same time, dozens of shelves filled with warehouses collapsed all at once, revealing a hidden space.
A vast underground cavity that appears to be several times as large as what was visible in the dark.
Behind the collapsed ledge, there were probably dozens of people pointing their guns at the two at once.
At the same time, the life that has been hidden so far flows explosively.
If you hadn’t prepared for all these things from the beginning, it would never be seen.
“It’s too bad. After faking the betrayal of this man named Enrico, she thought she would be able to hear a little deeper… … The loyalty of the members of that organization was stronger than I thought, so I couldn’t stop it. The Blue Eye must have been a better place than I thought.”
The expression on the man’s face was no longer frightened.
Rather, it was just that it was bizarrely calm.
“Well, you won’t need it anymore. After all, everything that had to be done through the artifacts department was finished. For now, I’m just going to enjoy the luck that came to me.”
Lenok, who read the vague heat in those eyes, turned his head to Grisha, who was standing next to him.
“Seeing that you gave the signal, did you know?”
“I knew it the moment we met face to face.”
She replied with a terrifyingly expressionless face.
“Enrico had known me since I was a boy. There was no way he could not have recognized my face because he had used the perception-disabling spell. I didn’t want to believe it… … .”
Wiping her face with one hand, she shattered the pipe she was holding in her mouth with her foot, raising her strength.
Exactly the same behavior as when testing Lennok’s abilities. Perhaps the act itself was a trigger to release her main force.
A cruel expression of death bloomed on her face.
“I’ll soothe the little boy’s soul with the blood of these worms.”
“What are you doing!! Kill me quickly!!”
With the man’s shout, the people who were aiming at the two from all sides pulled the trigger all at once.
The bullet that jumped out of the magazine immediately stopped in front of the muzzle.
[Magnetic Control]
Lennok’s magnetic magic had caught dozens of bullets fired and stopped them on the spot.
It wasn’t that difficult with his magical manipulation ability, which was powerful enough to move dozens of railroad tracks while in operation.
The expressions of people who saw the bullet floating in front of the muzzle like a lie instantly turned blank.
Right after that, Grisha grabbed a handful of his main power and swung it as it was.
[Pieces (破果育)]
Beopbeopbeobung!!
As Grisha’s gestures swept through the surroundings, people’s heads exploded like watermelons, turning the warehouse into a sea of blood.
“Hhhhhhhhhhh!!”
The man who watched the ridiculous massacre groaned and crawled.
Lennok frowned.
“Excessive… … Isn’t that more cruel than necessary?”
“what? I didn’t expect to hear something like that from you.”
Grisha smiled cruelly.
“Everyone who has ever killed a person knows that. Cruelty is a taste, but cruelty is a weapon. Terrorizing opponents is also a very useful power in war. Just like now.”
As she said that, she lifted the man’s collar with one hand and released her main power.
It was only then that the perception-impairing magic that had wrapped around her had to be lifted, and the man’s eyes widened.
“Hey!! That, Grisha… … !!!”
“Hoo.”
Grisha laughed.
“Seeing that you know me, you must be one of those who set foot on the Western Resistance Front. At that time, I thought he must have caught and killed them all… … Didn’t they pull out all of the drug lord’s tricks?”
“Ughhh… … !! How did you get to the Dominion… … Seriously, did you come back to the lighthouse!!”
“Ever since he was little, Enrico was a coward who peed whenever something happened.”
Grisha gritted his teeth instead of responding to him.
“I thought it was extraordinary when such a guy got older and said he would infiltrate the government building… … Why did he have to die this way?”
As Grisha’s finger pierced the man’s temple, he collapsed.
Looking at the fallen man with her eyes closed, she murmured with a dejected expression.
“Damn it, Grandma… … .”
“Did you kill him?”
“Not yet. There are many questions left to ask of this guy. We’ll have Amon interrogate him to find out how far the Dominion has been eaten.”
Grisha looked down at the fallen man with complicated eyes.
“Let’s take it for now. One of these guys is enough.”
“How do you do things?”
“He wouldn’t have touched it. Since it’s actually worthless, they probably thought it was just an excuse to make contact.”
“It’s an excuse… … .”
From the moment I followed the man’s guidance and entered the building, I had been aware of the reaction of life in the basement.
At that point, when you think about who might be behind this raid, there was one person who, absurdly, fits the situation perfectly.
There is a good reason to hide your safe in the Dominion and get your hands on the Floating Island Colony.
A member of the Pandemonium who is decisively opposed to the Blue Eye, including the lighthouse.
The Dominion of Philenom was already on the brink of falling into the hands of the drug lord.
It was completely unexpected, but it should be said that it was a good thing that he found out who was behind the drug lord instead of being caught.
“Judgment later. Just move.”
“okay.”
Considering what he said right before he passed out, it seems that Enrico touched the lighthouse without knowing that he was involved in the lighthouse, but it is still too early to be certain of the specific circumstances.
The first thing to do is to go back to the lighthouse and figure out the circumstances.
The moment when Grisha naturally picks up the man and Lennok tries to take the lead.
Wooddeuk!! Du-du-du-du-du-duduk!!
An ominous glow emanated from the corpses of those whose heads had exploded and began to wriggle.
The figure of the corpses slowly rising from their seats while the dark red light shimmering on the left side of the abdomen.
Lennok frowned slightly, and Grisha turned away with a rather curious look.
“Good. I’ve always been uneasy about something, but you’re completely convinced… … . It’s been awhile since I’ve seen this. Did you borrow the power of the necromancer?”
“I don’t think so.”
Lennok interrupted Grisha and pointed at the corpses with his finger.
“The parts where the brilliance comes out are all fixed to the left abdomen. Probably the kind that takes effect after death. It’s still in your stomach, so it looks like you haven’t taken something in a while.”
Grisha tilted her head.
“So, are you saying that the fact that they are swarming like zombies right now is the effect of the drug? A drug that makes those without heads move again, that’s like necromancer.”
“It’s not an ordinary drug. And it probably isn’t just a drug that makes zombies. If you see that movement, maybe… … .”
While saying that, the headsless corpses all turned around and began to gather in one direction of the vast underground cavity.
Kkuyeok kkuyeok.
Blinds are broken and flesh overlaps as they blindly lift each other up without even a hint of intelligence.
The blood flowing out of the muscles and skin is just a lubricant for fusion.
Grisha, realizing what Lennok was saying, frowned for the first time.
“Wow… … X feet. It’s disgusting.”
“Didn’t I say that cruelty is a weapon?”
“It’s actually a lie. I have a weak stomach.”
I don’t think that’s what a person who blew over a hundred people’s heads off the spot would say… … .
Even as Lennok thought about it, he carefully stared at the grotesque appearance of flesh gathering.
Although it was clearly a sight he had never seen with his own two eyes, it was a scene that felt familiar in his memory somewhere.
If it was a phenomenon as bizarre as that, it wouldn’t be strange if it remained vividly in Lennok’s head, but rather, only a faint sense of deja vu was felt.
That fact made it all the more strange to Lennok.
Among the abilities that a drug lord could use, was there a technique that attempted to synthesize such a bizarre human body?
Or did he just pick up similar clues from Jenny?
While Lennok was immersed in agony in front of the rather unfamiliar phenomenon of the absence of memory, the flesh began to grow in size and become something less than human.
squeak!!
As if pus was being squeezed out from all sides, a huge hole was pierced in the center of the piece of flesh from which the blood was drawn, and a new piece of flesh, like a bell, emerged from within.
“ah… … ah… … .”
As the bell-shaped mass of flesh began to tremble and make a new sound, Lennok clicked his tongue, realizing the purpose of the flesh.
“… … Did they use human corpses to create living vocal cords? I’m not crazy.”
[ah… … week is correct Wizard. That’s a very good intuition.]
The flesh instantly adjusted its vocal chords and answered Lennok’s words in a heavy voice.
Contrary to the gruesome appearance, the voice coming out of the vocal cords seemed relaxed at first glance.
[Ordinary people are trapped in their own petty prejudices and do not easily realize what they are witnessing. However, you threw off the guise of morality and ethics and brilliantly deduced the identity of my work.]
“… … .”
[It’s the way I like to use it. Even on the other side of the continent thousands of kilometers away, I can project my will so neatly. The dirty appearance and complexity of the process are always the next problem.]
It was the first time he had heard the voice, but Lennok instinctively sensed it.
drug lord. Juice Master. One of the largest colossi on the continent. Shadow of the Republic.
A man who took all kinds of modifiers and insults at once and grabbed the drug trade in this huge world.
Dominic Cavaro has revealed his will right here and now.
