Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 244
Only Krnovel
Furnace (3)
Building 1 is used as a warehouse to store the assets of the Mage Tower, and Building 2 is used as a laboratory for wizards.
3 buildings in charge of old book storage and practice area. And four buildings that are used as living areas for wizards.
And even the central building, which is the core of the mage tower built in the center of the four towers.
Gionis opened all these facilities to the two city delegations, but kept the most important secret from their eyes.
Between the bridges between Buildings 2 and 3, Lennok looked up at the sky.
‘The top of the two towers closest to the sky.’
Lava still boils under the bridge, and endless smoke and haze flow in.
Even though he was standing in the deepest part of the volcano, Lennok didn’t get any heat.
However, the external environment outside the tower’s barrier is a mixture of ash, dust, and heat, so even Lennok’s magic perception doesn’t work well.
The flow of haze seems to exquisitely cover a specific part of the air.
The sky is obscured by turbid streams of ash and dust, but it is certain.
The center of the five-pronged magic tower. To be precise, it was clear that something was hidden several hundred meters above the central wing.
Whoops!!
Lennok immediately cast the floating magic on his collar to float, and then began to float several hundred meters in the air.
[Reverse Gravity]
The hot air blowing from below shakes the body to and fro. After applying reverse gravity magic, the balance is roughly balanced.
As soon as I got out of the barrier, I felt my breathing become stuffy in an instant, but it didn’t matter too much after wearing the overlapping shields.
Only after escaping the crater and rising high enough to touch the clouds, Lennok was able to identify what was hidden in the invisible air.
A huge stone slab that looked like a radius of several tens of meters.
It must have been mining the bedrock near the volcanic area and using it as a support for Beecher.
“You used the hot wind and haze of the volcanic zone as a medium to cast a powerful spell. If you use the environmental conditions so exquisitely, will you be able to hide your existence even from the sense of magic…? … .”
Whoo oh oh-
When you step on the stone slab, the constant noise inside the crater disappears and you can only hear the strange sound of the wind.
Between the night sky above the clouds. Another huge tower was built under the moonlight.
Although not comparable to the five towers that exist inside the crater, it is a height that can easily exceed the 5th floor.
Lennok entered the tower without hesitation.
After passing through the empty first floor and stepping up the spiral staircase, I saw hundreds of books lined up in ornately decorated bookshelves.
A cozy space made by smelting the hides of rare animals into carpets.
But what catches your eye first is that the hundreds of books in this spacious library all radiate intense magic.
‘Spellbook.’
Books that simply contain magical theories do not hold much value among wizards.
Knowledge contained in books that do not have power even though they are directly marked and specified does not have much meaning after all.
However, it is not enough to deal with really high-level magic theory, and a book that contains knowledge acquired through direct reflection and research is different.
A phenomenon in which the will of the magician who wrote the book melts into itself and becomes a powerful artifact.
A type of magical artifact that becomes more famous or powerful than the author himself with the passage of time.
Even Lennok saw it in person only at the auction house, Aris’ laboratory, and the cartel’s executive safe.
As if bewitched, Lennok approached the study, pulled out a thick book that was within his reach, and exclaimed in admiration.
“A high-class crafted with the knowledge of a military rank… … . It’s worth keeping and hiding.”
As Lennok muttered, he quickly opened the other books and immediately began to read them.
Basically, the explanation is based on the premise that a level 6 or higher wizard who knows how to change the nature of magic reads the book, and there are books that assume the development of the magnetic realm as if it were natural and start explaining the theory.
Although all the theories were discussing the possibility of application and development of all flame series unique magic, it was not difficult for Lennok to understand because he had already completed the hierarchy in the lightning series with his own power.
Rather, I was just busy concentrating on confirming the theories that were only vaguely conceived in my head through books.
Of course, it may be a state that Lennok could have reached someday if he spent time steadily using and researching fire-type magic and longing for it in actual combat.
What a valuable opportunity it is to be able to reduce that time and cost to just a few books.
Changes in the nature of fire-related magic, the precautions and anomalies when casting unique magic due to it, are recorded, and the distance to be studied is left to future generations.
A case of a wizard who lived tied up in a volcanic zone for the rest of his life and failed to establish his realm because the images of flame and lava he had inside were altered.
On the contrary, it is a record of a great wizard who had the formless image of flame in his heart and rose to the level of a great wizard.
It was all the kind of knowledge the old Lennok desperately craved.
How other wizards besides himself had grown, what kind of troubles and hardships they had reached.
Items that may have filled Lennok’s loneliness, who felt a faint sense of unity even against the wizards he had dealt with as enemies.
“… … .”
It’s ironic.
Things that were hard to come by when you really wanted them come into contact with you only after you have reached a certain level and relieved some of your regrets.
I wanted to keep that time and emotion while continuing to turn the pages on the spot, but… … . Lennox let go of his regrets and rose from his seat.
A foreign smell that had spread from the first time I entered the tower.
It was because Lennok’s sense of smell, which could not even distinguish cigarette smoke properly, could not detect the stench beyond the study room.
“Whoa… … .”
It is too heterogeneous to be a sign of life, and extremely clear to be not.
Grabbing the corner of one side of the study and pushing it, the bookshelf rotated lightly, revealing a hidden space beyond it.
Dozens of beds were placed in the solitary room lit by moonlight, and someone was lying on every bed.
The figure of people breathing slowly while looking up at the ceiling with blank eyes.
Judging from the magic they radiate, they seem to be wizards of a considerable level, but most of them seem to have lost their senses for a long time, so the flow of magic is tangled.
The face of the people did not cover men and women of all ages, but among them there were those who wore exceptionally striking costumes.
Elderly men in old-fashioned robes and muscular giants dressed as travelers. Probably the members of the Senate and the delegation from the missing Machine City.
Most of the people lying unconscious have lost an arm or a leg, and teeth marks are clearly visible on the amputation.
Realizing what that meant, Lennok took a short breath.
“What is going on here?”
A cold voice sounded like ice rolling from behind.
“… … .”
Slowly turning his head, he saw Gionis leaning against the stairs with his arms crossed.
“I opened all the magic towers, but I never gave you permission to enter even the hidden secrets.”
After Gionis said that, he picked up one of the books Lennok had spread out on the floor and read through.
“A Study on the Sequence of Deploying a Multiple Window for Heat Flow Control… … . It’s a title I miss.”
“… … .”
“There was a time when I was engrossed in research and training, buried in these sorcery books.”
Gionis murmured.
“Everyone told me that I would become a new rosary and that one day I might inherit Master’s tower.”
After he said that, he chuckled as if he couldn’t stand it because he was laughing at himself.
“I was stupid enough to believe it straight away.”
Lennok stared blankly at Gionis, then slowly turned his head.
“Is that also the reason why you have not reached the level of a perfect Aspect?”
“… … .”
This time, Gionis kept his mouth shut.
A sparring with him in the 3rd building magic tower practice area.
In the battle that ended at the same time as he opened his new magic eye, Lennok was aware that there was something immature in Gionis’ magic.
Completion of the hierarchy is proof that the magician himself has perfectly mastered all the application methods of changing his nature.
On top of that, it is like a qualification to be able to project one’s own firm image through the change in the nature of space.
However, Gionis did not use any change in nature during the confrontation with Lennok.
It’s probably because Gionis himself can’t perfectly control the power of his transformation.
It is by no means a phenomenon that a wizard who has risen to level 7 in a perfect way can see it.
The answer you can think of is probably… … .
“I’ve seen a few times those who forced their own achievements through constraints or geas.”
Lennok’s cold gaze turned to Gionis’ chest.
“But it’s the first time I’ve seen a sorcerer who forcibly raised his level in that way.”
“… … under.”
Gionis let out a hot breath.
His left eye, which he threw off his monocle with trembling hands, was completely faded, unlike what he could see through the glasses.
“I trusted Master.”
As if he had revealed his biggest shame, he vomited out words one after another as if he couldn’t stand it.
“Even when I bumped into a wall at the end of the military position, I believed the advice to put restrictions on and get over the wall. But it wasn’t long before I realized.”
Clench your fists.
“The restrictions placed on oneself are only privileges for monsters who challenge the ascension… … . That hastily setting shackles is tantamount to removing the platform for growth.”
“… … .”
“Thanks to that, I lost my left eye and turned into an X-God who couldn’t use magic except near the Mage Tower. It’s not even a rosary candidate. Master only thought of me as a dog guarding the house!!!”
When Lennok opened the magic eye in his left pupil, was that the reason why Zionis was strangely agitated?
How did he feel when he looked at Lennok, who had awakened a new possibility in the same eyes that he had lost forever?
Lennok stared at Gionis, who couldn’t control his emotions and screamed.
“That’s why I contacted Pandemonium.”
“… … .”
At Lennok’s sudden words, Gionis stopped talking.
It’s a simple thing if you think about it.
Why were the members of Pandemonium so easily able to take over control of the furnace?
Why are the other members of the Senate not showing up?
Where did the missing people who were increasing in numbers in the Mage Tower disappear?
Aren’t all the answers here?
Lennok is well aware of the case of the cartel that the Mage Tower’s security, which has been going on for hundreds of years, is also helpless against the blades stabbed from the inside.
All of these things that have happened so far are absurdly simple under one assumption.
Zionis Verwein joined hands with Pandaemonium.
Turning his head, his eyes shone eerily.
“I’m sorry. I thought half of you could understand my feelings.”
“… … .”
“After gathering information from the Balkans, I was convinced. The timing of your inactivity in the megalopolis coincides with the timing of Evelyn Marcia’s visit to the Mage’s Tower… … Knowing that there aren’t many people who are more than a military magician who can lend their strength to an agent.”
“hmm.”
“I didn’t know you had such a deep knowledge of freezing magic, but… … I was convinced when I saw that I had found this Beecher. As far as sensitivity alone, it is an unmistakable level of Aspect. Then there is only one correct answer.”
“It looks like you worked hard on the background investigation.”
Lennox nodded obediently.
It was Ibelin’s idea to suggest hiding her identity right before visiting the Mage Tower.
As long as he didn’t even change his magic pattern, it wasn’t strange when he was caught.
Zionis’s lips twitched at Lennok’s unfazed attitude.
“Well, okay… … . It doesn’t matter who you are.”
Gionis slowly opened his arms and said.
The magic book he was holding fell terribly to the floor.
“The important thing is that you are a wizard skilled enough to temporarily block even the heat of the furnace. There is only one.”
“… … .”
“Through the deal with Pandemonium, I have the opportunity to get rid of Master’s spell. They say that if you bring me one thing, I can free the geas I put on myself.”
It was only then that Lennok realized why Gionis had told him about his situation and frowned.
“Damn it, that trade item is… … .”
“okay.”
Gionis’ eyes shone sharply.
“With the centralization that all the capital and technology of the Western Continent branch were integrated… … . In exchange for the most precious treasure of the Mage Tower, I will reclaim my freedom.”
