Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 659

Cause and effect (1)

Under the sky of the Machine City, black jade salt and platinum rain mixed and scattered.

coo!!

Agents and soldiers moved quickly toward the fallen Hermes.

“Commissioner!!!”

“Commissioner Hermes attempted suicide!! Call a healer right now!!!”

“Wrong. I’m already out of breath… … !!”

The hurriedly running soldiers checked Hermes’ face and shut up as one.

Because the bullet from the revolver that was fired at the temple penetrated the head and made it into an inexplicable shape.

Healing magic or resuscitation is not a level that can be solved.

A perfect suicide with no hope of anything, as if someone had done something about it.

“this… … !!”

The Side Squad agents, who were trembling with a devastated expression, turned their eyes away.

Grabbing Lennok by the collar, who was lying next to Hermes, he pointed the gun at his head.

Clap!

“This traitor baby is !!”

The moment Lennok’s head staggers backwards from the muzzle, and the furious agent puts his finger on the trigger.

A silver blade that flashed right in front of him cut off the tip of the muzzle.

visor!!

Realizing that it was an executor’s equipment, the Side Squad agents quickly raised their magical powers.

“leader!!”

“Everyone, don’t move from the spot.”

Chow!!

Meister, Narcissa Solmer, who appeared with dozens of enforcers, declared with a cold expression.

Even though he was leaning back with a pale complexion in a wheelchair, everyone stopped moving at that terrifying force.

“Circumstantial evidence has been found that the culprit of the Meister assassination and city overturn was Hermes.”

“What… … !!”

“After collecting and organizing related testimonies and internal circumstances, we plan to arrest all those directly or indirectly involved in the incident and hand them over to trial. Lay down your weapons and respond to the convoy.”

“… … .”

The Side Squad, which assisted the Ex Machina, and the Mechanized Corps, which followed Hermes and obtained the old world technology, have many corners to be stabbed in many ways.

If he was brought to the hospital according to Narcissa’s words, he would definitely share some of the responsibility in the future.

However, at this point, when Hermes, who played the pivotal role, committed suicide in front of their eyes, even the commanders leading the corps could not easily make a decision.

Should I resist to the end or should I follow the reversed flow?

Narcissa spoke once more as if she had read their thoughts.

“Put down your weapon. I will not speak again.”

Between the air sharply drawn with tension. There is only suffocating silence.

The worry didn’t last long.

Clap!!

With the commanders first laying down their weapons and disarming themselves, the others slowly disarmed and accepted the restraints.

“You made a wise choice.”

At the words of the executor approaching, the commanding officer with both hands handcuffed nodded slowly.

“On the way up, I saw the commander of the 3rd corps dying in a miserable tail.”

“… … .”

“I don’t know what happened to Commissioner Hermes and chose to commit suicide at the end of the plan… … I’m not the type to bet on reckless gambles.”

Hermes’ crime was revealed to the whole world, and when he committed suicide, the work was completely ruined.

The destroyed workshop tower and the black jade flame burning the sky are evidence that everything went wrong unexpectedly.

At this point, there would be no point in resisting on the side of Hermes.

Everyone knew that they had no choice but to change their attitude according to the changed situation.

Even if he is handed over to trial and suffers losses through judicial transactions, he cannot be killed while resisting on the spot.

Neither justification nor practical interest exist here anymore.

It was impossible to overthrow the Machine City and make the rebellion a success without the power of Hermes and the Ascendant.

The Side Squad, the Mechanized Corps, and several enlisted enforcers who surrounded the body of Hermes were carried out in turn.

According to Narcissa’s order, Hermes’ body is also quickly collected and moved somewhere.

Then, Narcissa stared blankly at Lennok, who was lying dead beside him.

“Stop watching and wake up, Lyman.”

A cold tone escaped from Narcissa’s mouth.

“If you don’t wake up, I’m going to send you back and put you in prison. Or should I call you Ban?”

“… … You knew.”

Lennox opened his mouth slightly.

Lenok, who had no strength to breathe even until Hermes tried to kill him, recovered enough to talk in a short time.

Platinum rain that Orochnier scattered for the last time as it perished.

The Ascendant’s will, which even neutralized the black flame that burned the sky, even improved Lennok’s condition to some extent.

The behavior itself was difficult, but it was enough to wake up and have a conversation.

“Vulcan fastness. It looks like you’ve had enough fun pretending to be a talented craftsman in Makina.”

Narcissa glared coldly at Lennox and said.

“Do you know what the hell you’ve done?”

“… … ”

Instead of answering, Lennok rose slowly and leaned against the nearby rubble.

Lennok, who took out a cigarette, ignoring the vigilance of the executioners assisting Narcissa and pointing their weapons at him, flicked his hand.

“Is it okay if I smoke one?”

“… … Who said you could sit there?”

“hmm?”

Narcissa’s answer was slightly delayed.

Realizing belatedly that he was sitting on a piece of white throne, Lennok smiled.

The pure white throne on which Hermes sat to reopen the gates of ascension.

Seeing Lennok leaning over the fragments of the throne, did he sense some kind of wariness?

Lennok ignored Narcissa’s words and flicked out the embers with a cigarette in his mouth.

“Originally, it would have taken a very long time for that flame to disappear… … .”

Lennok, who had been silently emitting smoke, muttered and mocked himself.

“I’m not going to get to the worst. I must thank the Great Transcendental Mercy.”

“Redeem.”

At Narcissa’s words, the bailiffs slowly began to approach Lennok.

If he raised his mana even a little, he would have been cut down on the spot with a terrifying spirit.

But Lennok knew that, but instead of running away, he stared at the approaching bailiffs.

“Isabella.”

Lennok smiled when he saw a familiar face among the bailiffs.

“Did the reunion with your boss go well?”

“Sounds nonsense… … .”

Isabella gritted her teeth as she straightened her tattered uniform.

“Myja Lenslet fled the scene long ago. You are the only one left.”

“… … .”

“You will have to explain why the Balkan wizard came to Machina, what he did to Hermes, and all the other crimes he committed.”

“Right… … .”

Lennok slumped against the fragments of the throne, puffing smoke and contemplating.

I think of it every time I look back on the time that has passed since I finished a big job, but the journey I went through in Machine City this time was especially long.

That’s probably because Machina’s most dangerous secret reached the other side of the already destroyed world.

Hermes’ suicide was finally settled, but not everything was over yet.

It is necessary to collect all the causalities that Lennok obtained in Machine City, and to finish confirming how far the fragments of the old world extend.

I want to disappear here right now, but… … .

“ruler.”

At the sight of Lennok holding out his hands while holding a cigarette, the executioners shook their shoulders.

“Put the handcuffs on. Wasn’t that what you guys wanted?”

“You bastard… … .”

Lennok grinned as he watched the other bailiff clench his teeth.

“I still have work to do.”

Clap!!

Isabella, who put handcuffs made of magic blocking metal on both of Lennok’s hands, immediately raised Lennok to his feet.

“Unauthorized access to Simseonggwan on the sea barrier, kidnapping and assassination of Meister and Ex Machina, destruction of workshop and tower, massacre of the 3rd mechanized corps. Congratulations on making a name for yourself as one of Makina’s worst offenders, Ban.”

Isabella said with a stiff face.

“Sentences and prison facilities incomparable to megacities will be waiting for you.”

“Do you know that no one arrested me in the Balkans?”

Lennox laughed at Isabella’s words.

“I didn’t know that Machina would present that lesson. You should definitely add a line to your resume later.”

“… … drag it away Keep him in a special prison facility until the military tribunal opens.”

Guided by the rough hands of the enforcers, he walks through the collapsing defense tower.

Flames burning everywhere and the acrid smell of smoke.

Dozens of enforcers and soldiers surround Lennok and guard his movements, even as he walks through the corpses of the Mechanized Corps and the ruined facility.

Everyone is clearly aware of the fact that Lennok is responsible for the disaster that occurred in the workshop.

The shock of the blockade had all subsided, and Lennok removed his handcuffs as he walked helplessly through the quiet streets where martial law had been lifted.

The bailiff didn’t even miss that suspicious gesture and grabbed Lennok’s arm.

At the same time, the soldiers escorting him immediately pointed their guns at Lennok.

“Don’t do anything stupid. What are you hiding?”

“nothing.”

When Lennok said that and obediently spread his hands to show them, the executioner withdrew reluctantly.

When the armored car to escort the prisoner arrived, Lennok slowly climbed into the carriage.

Around Lennok’s neck, a familiar platinum glow swayed like a necklace.

“… … .”

A handful of thoughts. It was an illusion close to vanishing delusion, but Orochnier certainly left something behind for Lennok.

A platinum pendant that exists in the form of a necklace. At first glance, the shape is light, elongated and sharp like a feather.

What does this mean and answer to Orochnier?

That’s something Lennok will have to figure out for himself.

For now, it was enough to reflect on the retains and questions he left behind.

“Let’s go. It moves at full speed.”

Boaaaang!!

Not knowing that Lennok’s gaze down the back of his neck had sunk deeply, the convoy departed.

* * *

The 49th district of Balkan, a megacity.

Behind the alley in the building area where Jenny’s bar is located.

One of the key rendezvous points of Area 49, where various freelancers and mercenaries use it as a place to arrange work.

Now, it is also a place where brokers who simultaneously operate a huge distribution company, one of the top five in the megalopolis, are located.

“그 가격에는 절대로 일 못 해, 이 개새끼야!”

“If you twist it, it will go somewhere else. Do you do business for a day or two?”

Wow Jangchang!!

At the moment the negotiations break down, a robot and a bug man kick the table and grab each other by the collar.

“Heh heh… … This curse has gone up in price… … ”

“The curse I put on our manager last time had no effect, so why?!”

A sorcerer holding a crystal ball and laughing gloomily and an office worker protesting unfairly.

“It is an admission right to enter the green belt area designated by the city council. It’s something I got directly from the Druid.”

“I heard that the government’s environmental subsidy has recently decreased, so has this already started leaking?”

“Just because you live in the woods doesn’t mean that your lust for material things will disappear.”

Even business partners who secretly trade dubious items even at a glance.

The endless conversations, the sound of breaking glasses, and the sound of softly flowing music mix and turn into chaotic noise.

A woman sits at a counter, tapping her laptop with a serious face, unmoved even in the midst of such chaos.

While annoyingly sweeping away her curly black hair, her eyes do not deviate from the monitor screen at all.

Even when customers who can’t stand their anger and punch come out, they just ignore them instead of standing up.

Instead, two people sitting at the bar, tilting their glasses, stood up and grabbed the customers by the shoulders.

“Go out and fight, fools. What are you doing at the bar?”

“This is our territory, you assholes! Get off immediately.”

A sturdy man wearing a professional wrestler mask and a woman swearing with a shotgun slung over her shoulder.

“D, Dylan… … .”

Upon recognizing that the two were members of the Antares mercenary group, the guests became as docile as docile sheep.

“I had no intention of hurting Jenny. It’s just that this bastard keeps buying me… … .”

“X-bal, then I’m not trying to sell at the market price, are you trying to lose money?”

“It’s done. It’s loud enough without you guys talking, so let’s get out of here.”

Dylan snapped at the two, who could not stand the bird and tried to fight again.

Dylan grabbed the two of them by their collars and pulled them out, threw them in front of the bar in an instant and returned to their seats.

“Jennyyyy… … How long are you going to make me water the bar? I am a mercenary, not a security guard!!”

“These days, security guards also receive separate incentives for this kind of work.”

Dylan frantically shook his head up and down at Mila’s words.

“okay!! That’s right! Even though our office officially signed a collaboration with them, this kind of unfair treatment is embarrassing!”

“… … .”

It was only then that Jenny’s hand tapping on the laptop suddenly stopped.

Jenny glanced back at Dylan with a cold gaze and opened her mouth when she saw the glass he was holding.

“Mac Chickers 300,000 cells.”

“… … .”

“Black Blood Whiskey 360,000 cells. Flat shield 530,000 cells… … .”

“Hmmmm.”

“Both of them talk a lot while drinking expensive alcohol like ghosts. yes?”

“haha.”

Jenny sneered at Dylan, who slightly averted her gaze.

“If you’re not satisfied with letting me drink for free, the office will call other mercenaries. Who was that stock idiot?”

“Hehe, that’s what you’re saying, Jenny.”

Dylan, who quickly bent over and rubbed his hands together, laughed like an idiot.

“It’s because Mila is making strange noises. I said nothing. know my heart… … .”

“This traitor bastard is going to get away all alone!!”

Wow Jangchang!!

He tossed the glass that Mila was holding into Dylan’s head.

Dylan also jumped up and kicked the leg of the chair Mila was sitting on.

Mad Manson shook his head pathetically next to the bar, which quickly became a mess.

[Stupid bastards. If you change your head to a robot like me, you won’t be dominated by that alcohol.]

“Manson, don’t you think a guy who pumps gasoline instead of alcohol is supposed to be given a lesson these days?”

Manson was steadfast even at Jenny’s words that gave him a pathetic look.

[For me, it is not a favorite food like alcohol or nicotine, but it is like bottled water to replenish power.]

“Yes, yes, you just do the car.”

[…] … .]

Jenny, who had silenced the crazed freelancer with two words, waved at the two bickering mercenaries.

“Stop doing nonsense and come over here. I’m thinking of tweaking your deep web security rating.”

“Oh, so am I going to be Platinum now?”

“Fla!!”

Looking at the two mercenaries clinging to the back of the laptop, Jenny pointed to the screen.

“I’m trying to entrust you with a high-level job, so it’s difficult to get orders because the deep web level is low. Felix never said anything?”

“We tend to receive requests under direct control of the office, so there has never been any inconvenience on this side.”

“A lot of things are handled roughly by our vice-captain.”

“Anyway, if you want to work for the distribution company, you have to clear the security level here. From now on, we will meet the performance requirements you need. okay?”

Dylan and Mila grumbled simultaneously at Jenny’s determined answer.

“Jenny, we are not half monsters. The standards are set too high.”

“that’s right. Isn’t performance something you can get from anywhere?”

“You can’t compare a madman who can break through the diamond grade with only his performance in the first place! Where else is that guy doing-”

[Intercontinental Breaking News Correspondence Patrick Media.]

The news began to broadcast on the TV hanging above the heads of the three chattering people.

[The Makina Metropolitan Police Department reported that the ringleader of the large-scale explosion that occurred this morning was arrested.]

[The culprit of the incident is a half-magician called Kyeong-roe in the Balkans… … .]

“… … !!!”

The moment they heard that name, the three of them completely forgot the conversation they had just had.

At about the same time, everyone’s eyes in the bar turned to the TV screen.
