Genius Wizard Takes Medicine - Chapter 479



Only Krnovel

Earth running on the sea (2)

The ceremony of selecting apostles conducted in the highest secrecy by the church.

The legacy of Jindun, which is believed to be hidden in the Far East branch.

And the existence of a mirror that reflects the will to exist, which was mentioned in the thesis on the projection rate of existence.

As all three of the reasons at stake in this case are the kind that Lennok can’t easily overlook, Lennok is also willing to cooperate as much as possible when necessary.

However, it is only natural that he becomes more cautious after hearing Pio’s words that he would clone Lennok.

It’s not strange that the shifter Pio participated in the operation, but what use would Lennok’s physical information be needed?

Pio took a step back after confirming that Lennok’s expression had changed somewhat.

“Ah, if the word cloning bothers me, it doesn’t matter if I call it mutation. Anyway, since I participated in this operation, it would be much easier to use this side for the main goal of the operation.”

“It’s a change… … .”

Come to think of it, did I say that Pio’s original technique was a mutant type of ability?

“It seems so unbelievable. Okay, take a good look.”

Shrugging his shoulders and stepping back, Pio warmed up his body lightly and quickly raised his mana.

Whiik!!

At the same time as he grabbed his hair and spun it around, the top of his neck changed into the shape of a huge dog’s head.

“… … !!”

The figure of P.O, who has a normal human body from the neck down, but has changed to Rapford’s face from the top of the neck.

“I am a shifter, a magician who can change the shape of objects or living things.”

“… … .”

“It’s not difficult to simply put leather on your appearance, but you need to know the opponent a little more in order to achieve a perfect camouflage.”

As soon as he shakes his hands and stands up, Pio’s face returns to normal.

“… … From now on, I’ll ask you in a more normal way.”

Lappard, who had been looking at him with a puzzled expression, turned his head away.

Judging from Lappard’s reaction, it didn’t seem like a very pleasant experience.

“But anyway, since it’s a technique that mutates the appearance, it’s difficult to use it without the other person’s biometric information.”

“Right… … .”

Realizing why Lapis had included Pio in this operation without the slightest hesitation, Lennok nodded.

If Pio could freely disguise himself as Lennok and other observers, that alone would greatly increase what he could do during the infiltration process.

It is said that it will not simply decorate the appearance, but will imitate the body’s skeleton, signs, vital reactions, as well as physical abilities through mutation.

Lennox smiled and obediently held out his wrist.

“I know what you’re thinking, so let’s try. However, it is highly likely that there will be no significant effect.”

“Hehe, what are you looking at me for? No matter how outstanding a wizard is, if he allowed it, everything would be prosperous because of the mysterious technique… … Kkeek!!”

Pajijik!!

The moment Pio licked his lips and grabbed Lennok’s wrist to increase his mana, all of Pio’s hair stood on end and his whole body convulsed.

“Gegege, Gegege… … !!”

Pio, who had been trembling as if his head had been struck by lightning, opened his eyes wide and fell backwards trembling.

“… … .”

Lappard, who was watching from the side, opened his mouth wide at the completely unexpected situation, and turned his gaze to Gabsun, who was staring at the coastline from a distance with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Pio collapsed with his tongue out, Lennok shook his head quietly.

“You said it wouldn’t work.”

A transcendent talent that Lennok set himself up by taking a penalty.

Among them, his talent for targeted resistance is at a level far beyond Lennok’s own hierarchy.

Resistance that cannot be captured by all sorts of curses, target magic, or spells corresponding to various target designations.

It is only natural that Lennok, who had mastered his talents to the limit, would not be captured by other sorcerers’ scans.

It would be possible for a magician like Pio to forcefully use his strength to manipulate Lennok’s biometric information, but the more he does, the more the recoil comes back.

“… … Fuck, this is ridiculous!!”

Pio, who jumped up from her seat, screamed.

“There were cases where mutation was impossible, but there was no case where it couldn’t be measured at all!!”

This is not the case with vampires, for whom Lennok was able to directly give blood and remove resistance.

As long as we don’t know how much information Pio needs to transform, it’s close to impossible for Lennok to voluntarily get rid of the resistance itself.

“Looks like collecting information for transformation is also a type of transformation ceremony, is that correct?”

“… … yes.”

“Then it probably won’t work no matter what you do. Give up and start.”

Giving away Evan’s body information itself isn’t particularly risky for Lennok.

It wasn’t given Lennok’s real blood like it was when he was examined by Murphy, and Evan’s appearance, body odor, skin, and magical pattern were all close to a randomly created pile.

However, it was difficult for Lennok to deliver it to Pio through a spell because of his ability to designate a target.

“Damn it, I shouldn’t be like this… … .”

Pio frowned and muttered.

“I thought I’d disguise Evan’s face to draw attention and give you time to get inside.”

“… … .”

Are you planning to change into Evan’s form and create a perfect alibi and timing for Lennok?

If he could mutate and imitate Evan’s presence and magical power, it would be enough to fool the eyes of the church’s priests.

Considering that Lennok is not a bad idea, it seems that he has been using his mutation ability quite well… … .

“Okay, then how about this!!”

Pio, who stood up from his seat, widened his distance from Lennok and took a posture.

Perhaps he was quite accustomed to hand-to-hand fighting, but Lennok seemed very skilled in his poomsae, which lowered his center of gravity and kept distance.

At the same time, Pio made a hand sign with the other hand, and this time began casting a spell on herself.

ugh… … !!

The form of an unknown incantation sentence floating on the forehead.

Pio, who finished the chant quickly, returned to his stance and said.

“The mutation system’s unique technique, [The Mimic of the Natural Enemy]. It’s a technique that mimics the opponent’s strength through direct combat with the enemy.”

It was only then that Lennok understood the meaning of Pio’s words and let out a blank laugh.

“So, let’s have a fight here right now?”

“Originally, it was a technique created to overcome a crisis situation by copying the characteristics or strengths of the opponent in a tense situation.”

Pio grinned and patted his forehead.

“It’s less efficient than receiving biometric information properly, but wouldn’t it satisfy the minimum requirements for mutation?”

Chew!!

As I swung my feet down for a long time, the sand on the shore swayed and blew up, bursting with sand dust.

“A battle mage with one hand in the Blue Eye. Now, let’s check that skill.”

At Pio’s bold words, Lennok couldn’t stand it and laughed lightly.

In the meantime, there have been many people who have been arguing to see Lennok’s skills, but for this reason, it was the first time the opponent asked for sparring.

“good.”

Lennok, who brushed his feet off and entered the sandy beach, opened his mouth.

“I don’t have much time, so I set a few conditions.”

Raises one’s mana and pours it into the sand beneath one’s feet.

“This sparring is only for collecting biometric information necessary for mutation. According to my understanding of the enemy’s mimicry, avoiding it wouldn’t help, would it?”

Pio smiled and nodded.

“Exactly, Evan. So you don’t run away too much just to win?”

“I will not move more than three steps until the spell is over.”

As Lennok said, he pounded his foot on a nearby pile of sand.

“… … .”

[…] … .]

“No, you don’t have to do that… … ?”

Not only P.O and Rapford, but even Gap-seon shut their mouths at Lennok’s absurd declaration.

It was because the words that Lennok had just thrown sounded far more absurd than Pio’s words about the opponent’s mutation.

As such, the words Lennok had just uttered were nothing more than a declaration that was not strange, even if it sounded more like arrogance than confidence.

In a battle of superhumans, what does it mean when one side imposes a penalty on itself not to move from its original position?

An assertion that cannot be brought out without the certainty of completely crushing the opponent from the front, and even with such certainty, it is difficult to bring it out.

It is only natural that the atmosphere becomes strange at Lennok’s calm words, which are practically provocations.

But Lennok didn’t just say those words without calculating anything.

‘Because that’s what I always do.’

Having not been properly mobile for quite some time, Lennok is good at fighting without moving.

Since not moving doesn’t feel like much of a constraint, it was preferable to use that fact to get the necessary work done as quickly as possible.

If I hadn’t felt that Pio’s transformation technique was effective in the first place, I wouldn’t have started it.

“… … well, good Because I was the first to speak. Can you understand that I gave permission?”

Pio also quickly adjusted his expression and raised his mana.

The moment he fixed his posture and lowered his center of gravity, Pio’s left arm turned into a giant bat’s wings and fluttered.

As the one-armed wings stirred the air, it began to scatter sand dust in all directions.

“Then go… … !!”

Whoa… … !!!

The moment he thought that Pio’s spread wings were hidden between the bat wings, he was already swinging his fist right in front of Lennok’s eyes.

It couldn’t be faster than the sense of magic, but it aimed precisely at the gap in the sensory sphere.

I received P.O’s punch with a sand barrier of several meters raised under my feet.

The barrier hardened by fluidly mixing mana between grains of sand was stronger than most steel plates.

But even after seeing Lennok’s response, Pio swung his hand at him instead of running away.

Do-do-do-do!!!

The blow that stretches through his shoulders like a cannonball briefly twists in front of the barrier, then penetrates and stops right in front of Lennok’s nose.

Beyond simply threatening the wizard, the aftermath alone would crush and pierce the outer wall of the shield.

creepy… … !!

Pio laughed like he was embarrassed.

“hey… … . Are you really not going to avoid it?”

Instead of replying to that, Lennok carefully inspected Pio’s fist, which was right in front of him.

The punch that instantly pierced the sand barrier that jumped over the steel plate was not a human fist, but a form resembling a mace.

“Is it possible to transform into a non-living form? Weaponizing the whole body is not entirely impossible.”

“Continue… … !!”

A huge gun barrel protruded from the inside of the forearm that had changed into the shape of a mace, and a light flashed from the inside of the muzzle.

bang!!

Soon after, the sand barrier exploded from the inside, revealing Lennok’s body intact in front.

Before the obstacle between the two completely disappeared, Pio leaned forward and rotated his mana.

Kagagagak!!!

The arm that transformed into the head of a beast tore off the shield, and the spine whip protruding from the back aimed at the rear.

The booster bursting from the lower part of the leg pushed the body forward, and the wing of the skin rising from behind the shoulder rotated and changed direction in the air.

It is a state of being able to freely change direction and acceleration, control explosions and recoil while rapidly changing parts of the body into beasts, firearms, and armed weapons.

It is proof that they have been honing the fighting techniques of humans for a long time in two areas of rational calculation and instinctive intuition.

I guessed from when he said that he had completed the hierarchy with the transformation technique, but Pio himself is probably a very good warrior.

It is absurd that a transformation magician who has to fight by mutating his body is weak in direct combat ability.

Doo doo!!!

The blow he wielded roughly split and melted into three blades in the air,

As soon as the gun barrel rose from his elbow and fired, the air flow violently fluctuated and a small storm raged.

In every movement that hits the shield and finds a loophole, an impossibly bizarre and intense movement begins to materialize one after another.

It’s a one-sided composition that makes it hard to believe that Lennok is standing still and countering all the attacks.

“Caught… … !!”

The moment I thought that P.O’s hand stretched out like a flashlight and grabbed Lennok’s collarbone and twisted it.

thump… … !!

A fist-sized pile of sand covered Pio’s fingers, which had turned into sharp claws, and stopped him.

A perfect response that is virtually impossible if you did not recognize it in advance.

Reversely, realizing that he had punched the intended hole, Pio’s expression twisted, and Lennok smiled.

“Now it is my turn.”

At that moment, there was a shock as if the entire sandy beach was tilted.

Kwaaaaang!!

A huge wave of sand rising from Pio’s feet accurately picked out the body, ate it, and dragged it down to the ground.

Like the mouth of a living beast, the sandy beach shakes and swallows the body of a superman like an ant hell.

“Aww!! What is this again!!”

Panicked Pio kicks off quickly and calls for an airflow to bounce his body over his head, but as if he had waited, the pile of sand stands up and surrounds it as if it were entwined.

The wind that burst from Pio’s body rotated along the sand pillars that stood up on the shore and grew in size.

It began to grow in size enough to spread to the edge of the sea.

The situation suddenly grew to such an extent that Lappard began to glance at the distant horizon with an uneasy expression on his face.

“Dreyfus-sama, are you okay?”

[It’s a really ridiculous ability to manipulate magic.]

He answered without taking his eyes off the sand pillars of the ship.

[To put it bluntly, it’s not even magic that belongs to the system at all. Is it possible to bring the battle structure to this point just by manipulating the flow of particles? … .]

Lappard didn’t seem interested in sparring as he already knew Lennok’s skills, but Dreyfus was different.

As an 8th-level high-ranking magician, he could clearly see how technically excellent the battle between Pio and Lennok had reached.

Needless to say, Pio’s skill in manipulating magic and dealing with the aftermath is comparable to that of any other magician, despite being a swordsman.

Even more surprising than that was the fact that Lennok was countering Pio’s offensive with only one catalyst, the sand.

Considering the rumors that Evan was a flame-type wizard, it means that he is continuing the battle without using his body magic properly.

Not even once having broken Lennok’s own words that he would not move from the spot.

At this point in time, did it make sense to continue sparring while maintaining the combat composition as Pio said?

Pio probably doesn’t know that either.

As if that thought was correct, a flash of light flashed between the pillars of sand, and at the same time, a strong wind blew up and spread out on both sides, transforming into the wings of a daebung.

Using the propulsive force that flew upside down from the sky to the ground, a huge bird that had risen and submerged in an instant raised its head to look at Lennok.

Wedge liquid!!

It clenched its sharp beak tightly and pressed down Lennok with wind pressure from the descent.

A sandstorm blew from all sides, obscuring the sight of the two.

What appeared through the landscape beyond the dust was the appearance of P.O, who had returned to his original form before he knew it.

The sentence engraved on Pio’s forehead was shining brightly as he sealed the hands with both hands.

“The first condition of mimicry of the natural enemy has been met, then let’s go!!”

Faaaa!!

At that moment, P.O’s body exploded with dazzling brilliance, and began to change into Evan’s face and physique right in front of Lennok’s nose.

Somewhere expressionless, yet a strange atmosphere that makes it difficult to recognize the impression.

Would it feel like this if someone else saw Evan’s face right in front of them?

Of course, in Evan’s case, it was an arbitrary identity, but he did not know that he would succeed.

“Ohhh… … !! I just received basic body information, but the magic rotation speed is ridiculous… … !!”

“… … .”

Even Lennok is curiously looking at Pio, who has mimicked the image of Evan.

“Okay, at this level, it’s a bit more certain without using the transformation technique right away… … !!”

The moment when P.O looked down at his fingertips with a slightly agitated expression and was about to take a step forward toward Lennok with a smile of repentance.

Quadang!!

I tripped over my own feet and fell and hit my head in the sand.

“… … .”

“… … .”

A strange silence flows all over the place in an instant.

Pio, who blankly raised his gaze with a sand-stained face, tilted his head.

“… … what?”
