Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 400

Growth and proof (4)

Shoot aaaaa!!!

Rainwater pouring incessantly wets the hallway through the broken windows.

The bright red blood and fishy oil mixed with the rainwater that filled the hallway covered with fluffy carpets gave off a foul smell.

Lennok ignored the wetness of his coat and continued walking out of the hallway.

‘I went ahead with the operation even though I knew that this side was waiting. There must be more targets.’

This place today is a kind of gathering of evidence to prove that the identity of the organization that committed terrorism against Dyke is the Achilles Security Company.

Beyond simply defeating the enemy, we need clear evidence that Achilles actually took action.

The moment Lennok thought so and turned his mana to find the superhumans and spiders still hiding.

Kagagagak!!!

Suddenly, a sharp noise resounded from the walls of the hallway, as if insects were gnawing at them.

No, it doesn’t just end with noise. In an instant, the thick concrete painted on the wall falls off, revealing a bony skeleton.

The scene of the street at night with rain pouring through the steel bars and the mechanical spiders moving in perfect order beyond it.

It was only then that Lennok realized what his opponent was aiming for, and his complexion slightly changed.

“I can’t believe he’ll gnaw through the building and bring it down… … !!”

“Hold your feet!!”

“Use the spider as your shield!!”

Kiriririk!!

At the same time, other spiders and superhumans who were not included in the aftermath of the self-harm rushed at Lennok.

Gunfire protruding from all over the joint shoots hot flames and bullets alternately, shaving away barriers and disturbing concentration by bursting with strange sound waves.

Furious lasers and shields raining down on your head, followed by sharp blades that rip apart.

All of its movements are so agile that it is difficult to think of them as mere machines.

Kagagagak!!!

Clinging to the top of the shield, wriggling and grinding a drill under the boat, it was a terrifying sight.

Lennok, who stared at the drill spinning fiercely in front of him, raised his hand.

[Lightning Bound]

[12 stack overload torrent]

[Sealed Formation: Hierarchy Conversion]

Don’t fall out!!!

The air is crumpled like paper due to the heat that presses all over the place, and it smells like smoke.

After being able to use unique magic, it was a common magic that was used only for simple firepower supplementation.

However, once it passes through the filter called barrier art, it can reverse its power in a different direction from the inherent magic.

Unlike unique magic, which has a fixed direction and result, it is a common magic that is relatively free to customize, so it is possible to apply barrier techniques.

The lightning that spread out from Lenok at the center formed a huge barrier while wriggling like a living snake.

Lennok, who was standing in the center of the barrier, made hand signs in succession without hesitation.

[Thunderbolt (雷柱): Secret Spear (飛蒼)]

[One Hundred Eight Soldiers]

It wasn’t just magical power, but a complex chant that drew one more time using common magic that had already been created.

Although the process may seem cumbersome to use during battle, the scale itself is far different from what Lennok has wielded in his hand.

A resonant sound echoed through the lightning pillars that fell from the air. The flash of light seeping through the magical storm intercepts the superhumans running through the air one after another.

“Hahaha!!”

“X-shot, x-shot… … !!”

“Now there is nowhere to run!!”

Avoiding the shapes of the superhumans and spiders that were falling, I manipulated the shield and carapace shield to peel off the blades that came right in front of me.

Waves of chilling murderous intent that barely pass through every limb. The shady, cursed magic that brushes the tip of your nose.

Unlike before, it builds momentum and sharpness to the fullest, and it does not stop even though it spills out the approaching magic and murder with a single difference.

Kwaaaaa!!!

The lightning bolts bursting through the pillars of lightning that entwined in all directions split and hit like stakes.

The magic of the spiral, spinning and winding on the will, penetrates between the collapsing rubble and breaks the desperate resistance of superhumans.

soooo good!!

A terrible sound of bones and flesh being crushed.

Despite the desperation contained within, the screams of the voice bursting out are not well heard due to the nearby noise.

The moment when dozens of lightning bolts that rotated around Lenok fluttered and fluttered like wings.

What a profit… … !!

The whole floor of the building where the fighting was taking place exploded, and the waist of the building was severely bent.

The upper body of the building leaning to one side stumbles and collapses, landing on the spire that stood right next to it and stopping as a volunteer.

Woooooooooooooo!!!

The shock caused a mixture of cement and dust to scatter thick fog, and the hot heat that spread through the wreckage drew an untimely haze in the night sky.

Lennok, who had climbed up on a magician between the corridors on the 7th floor of the building that tilted at right angles, coughed incessantly.

“Cool, cool!!”

While covering her mouth with one hand and spitting out dust from her throat, with the other hand, she manipulated and pulled the connected magician incessantly.

The appearance of superhumans tied to dozens of magical threads that came out from between them.

The way he rolled his eyes while letting out an incomprehensible groan while his whole body stiffened was so familiar as if he had seen it before.

“Cool… … .!! While manipulating the shield, a breath filtering mistake… … !!”

[It’s a mistake, it’s not like a Master.]

“Whoa… … . In the process of applying the barrier technique, the mana keeps popping out. Because of that, it seems that some of the magic I always use keeps getting errors.”

Lennok, who was breaking out in a cold sweat, let out a small sigh.

“I thought it was okay since I’ve used it in real combat a few times, but I need to be more careful.”

Although Jindun’s barrier technique has been handed down as a memory, he only understands the principle of its operation and uses it directly.

In the process of combining the magic formula with the image of an ascendant deeply melted into Lennok’s magic, sensational side effects often occurred.

Although he suppresses the side effects with his transcendent magical power manipulation ability, if he is not careful, the filter on the shield will go wrong.

It was a problem that needed to be approached very carefully from Lennok’s point of view, who controlled environmental factors such as temperature and humidity by applying common magic to the shield that covered his entire body.

[I also confirmed through the accelerator that the side effects become stronger as the scale of mana handled increases. Even in a fight like now, if the manipulation is enough to bounce once, then eventually there will be a problem at least once… … .]

A problem that arises because Lennok has been embracing various spells with a very vast and gigantic vessel.

There might not be a problem when dealing with the formulas individually, but in a way it was natural for conflicts to arise in the process of combining the formulas built based on different images.

“Still, I managed to secure a few of them alive.”

Standing on top of the wall of the building with his waist bent at right angles, Lennok caught his breath while looking at the superhumans tied to magic threads.

In this engagement, exactly eight people survived without dying at the hands of Lennok.

They were the ones who survived until the end and tried to survive against Lennok somehow.

There was a high possibility that he knew as much as his skills and insight.

“If you hand it over to Panoa, he will at least make suitable physical evidence and bring it to you. If you hand over the mechanical spiders you caught earlier, securing physical evidence that Achilles was doing it… … .”

Aaaaaaa!!!

At that moment, a blue light rises through the raining night sky and pours down on Lennok’s head.

In an instant, the entire city is brightly lit up, and a circular hemisphere is constructed with the Dyke branch as the center.

At the same time, a powerful pressure, like a heavy weight on Lennok’s shoulders, began to control all sides.

A hemisphere of great blue light. The direction of all the light pours towards Lenok alone, illuminating his body brightly.

The moment Lennok hardened his complexion, feeling as if he was trying to bind and suppress the mana itself rather than the movement of the body.

“50% analysis of horsepower pattern completed. It’s not as good as I expected, but I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with this for now.”

Someone appeared on the other side of the building that had been bent with a crosshair and said to Lennok.

Wearing a pure white gown drenched in the rain was the face of an awkwardly young man.

I don’t know his actual age, but a man who outwardly didn’t look too different from Lennok looked at him and adjusted his glasses.

“If you confirmed that the new spell defense system works against a mage like you, it’s a good enough achievement. It’s rewarding to be faithful to your purpose without worrying about what’s behind you.”

coo coo… … !!!

The mana flowing from the man’s body was at a level that even Lennok could not ignore.

Regardless of the current situation around Lennok, the opponent in front of him is also an Astral level superhuman who has completed the hierarchy.

If the hemisphere surrounding Lennok now works properly and begins to bind mana, then Lennok’s fighting ability will never guarantee victory.

Lennok nodded, realizing why the man had only recently appeared.

“It’s a magic defense system. Is that part of the project you are preparing for this time?”

“To be precise, it’s a new leash to control powerful superhumans like you.”

The man who agreed through the rain-soaked glasses that he couldn’t see properly said.

“Nice to meet you, Van. This is Graham Campbell, the head of the Achilles Technology Strategy Team. It’s such an honor to present this project to a mage like you.”

Even while he was saying that, a huge hemisphere of blue light spread out wide all over the area, narrowing its area and slowly approaching Lennok.

As the hemispheres shorten the distance, the pressure applied also intensifies.

At the same time as Lennok generated magic, a flash of light from one side of the hemisphere flew into the air and scattered the magic.

supportive position… … !!!

“The use of magic is prohibited.”

Graham said, starting to walk on the vertically curved glass windows of the building.

“To be precise, it’s a kind of system that recognizes the magic pattern emanating from the outside and intercepts it on the spot, rather than interfering with the movement of the magic within the body.”

“It’s a system… … .”

“It took a long time to record it in the system’s memory because its magic patterns were so complex, but the security weapons you dealt with were originally designed for that purpose.”

Are you talking about the mechanical spiders that ran towards Lennok just before?

In a state where they were so close that they could see each other’s faces with the naked eye, he continued.

“The moment it is destroyed, it records all the spells poured into it and transmits the data. The accumulated data is schematized and implemented as part of the system by fitting it into a huge frame called the magic pattern.”

Every time he raised his mana and stretched it outward, the blue light emitted from outside the sphere intercepted Lennok’s mana.

It couldn’t be destroyed, but it was a kind of field that prevented the condensation of mana and turning it into clear magic.

“It’s not yet finished, but it’s possible as long as it’s adjusted and used against just one person. How do you feel?”

Graham asked.

“This is probably the last time I can stand sane. After I capture you alive, I plan to soak your brain in confessional and blow everything I know. Before that, I want to hear your honest thoughts.”

“Right.”

Lennok nodded.

“I don’t know how big of a picture he paints, but his confidence is pretty impressive.”

“… … .”

“Right now, I understand that there are conflicting opinions about the new project within the city government. Even if we borrow the power of unlicensed power that can be mobilized, if we continue to take drastic steps like this, we will eventually reach our limit someday.”

Lennok asked, watching Graham touch the phone with his fingers.

“Do you believe that there is such significance in a control system that replaces the prohibition law?”

“Hmm. Come to think of it, this is the first time I’ve been talking to someone who was directly involved in the National Guard’s mutiny.”

Graham, who had been acting as if he would grab Lennok and kneel at any moment, tilted his glasses as if interested.

“Do you look satisfied with the appearance of this city where the law has been lifted?”

“… … .”

“There are not a few people who don’t like the current situation. All the more so because I know that the city council’s conclusions are not the result of careful consideration.”

“What do you mean?”

“In the end, the city council lifted the prohibition ordinance because it wanted to prevent a situation in which the military power under its command could not be used, like the treason caused by the National Guard.”

said Graham, looking down at Lennok with cold eyes.

“I just want to prevent a situation like this, which was aimed at loopholes in the law, but I don’t mean to deny the fact that control is necessary.”

“I don’t care if the superhumans of this city need freedom and responsibility.”

Lennok replied with a plaintive expression.

“What I want to ask is, do you seriously believe that a project concocted in this way will have the same effect as the decree?”

“… … .”

The order of the megalopolis, which changes day by day, is established under tacit agreement and balance of power, not clear rules.

What the high-ranking officials of the city government are attempting now by borrowing Achilles’ technology is a radical move that completely ignores these interests.

Even if it wasn’t Lennok, he would have been blocked someday by those who were against it.

Lennok wondered if Achilles’ important figure, Graham, was doing the same thing knowing that.

“I’m testing the system against outlaws like you to find out.”

Graham grinned as he scooped up some rainwater.

“So, I want you to do your best. If we can prove that the system works for a mage like you, it won’t be a big deal to get proper investment from the nobility of the city council.”

Not just to take down Dyke and take over its production facilities.

A place to prove whether a new project created by combining Achilles’ technology and a high-ranking plan can really have control similar to that of the law.

However, when Lennok heard the news right in front of his eyes, instead of shrinking, he smiled faintly.

“Madrich Onion persuaded you by saying that.”

“… … !!!”

“But it seems that you haven’t properly explained what magic means to a wizard.”

Could it be that he didn’t expect that name to come out of Lennok’s mouth here?

The moment Lennok snapped his fingers as he looked down at Graham, his eyes wide open.

Kwaaaaang!!

Something jumped out from under Lennox’s feet and, in an instant, lifted him onto his back and began to look down at Graham.

eight legs. A massive black fuselage. The bright red eyes that I’m so used to.

At the same time as Graham’s mouth twisted as he realized that it was the mechanical spider and security weapon 71-Aranea that he had been controlling until just now.

Dada Dada Dada Dada!!!

Dozens of spiders protruding from all over the hallway climbed over the broken windows and surrounded the two.

Did the mechanical spiders, who thought they were smashed, lose control of all of them in one fell swoop?

“how… … !!”

“I understood roughly how Achilles’ system felt.”

Chara la la la rock!!!

Countless wads of paper protruding from the cracks of the destroyed building.

A fox cub is frolicking among the piles of hundreds and thousands of papers that flutter like snow through the raining night sky.

Lennok looked down at Graham’s hardened face and grinned.

“Then now it’s my turn to try it out.”
