Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 674

Central Council Senate (2)

“… … A messenger from the Senate?”

City Government Central Council Senate.

It is a part of the City Council, which consists of both houses, and the highest authority standing at the apex of the Balkan metropolis.

Bystanders who, on the contrary, do not intervene hastily anywhere, even though there is no place in the metropolis that has not passed through their will.

In spite of all the incidents, those who had never tried to make direct contact with Lennok were now trying to spread the word.

Lennok smiled as he stared at the letter Armand had politely handed out.

“I thought you would try to contact me, but I didn’t expect you to send a message like this.”

“… … .”

“Does the Central Council deal with things this way?”

“Originally, we send an official letter to set up a schedule or ask for acceptance… … ”

Armand answered with a nervous look.

“It was notified early in the morning, so no one heard about it. You are not allowed to go through a broker.”

“so?”

“In addition, as far as special forces that can shake the order of the city… … .”

Having said that, Armand glanced at Lennok and concluded his words.

“Because it is an unwritten rule not to follow customs.”

“… … .”

Does that mean they don’t bother to take official measures against superhumans like Lennok who have gone beyond their limits?

Rather, if he had tried to match Lennok’s disposition to lead a thoroughly quiet life, he might have thought this way was right.

“Do you know the contents of the message?”

“Simply for the purpose… … I don’t know the specifics.”

Lennok nodded.

“Open it.”

“… … All right.”

Armand, who struggled to keep his balance, slowly opened the letter and skimmed through its contents.

“It bears the time, place, and seal of the Senate’s message. As is customary, it is also possible to request transportation to an appointment via this letter.”

“You call transportation?”

“You can call me right now if you want. However, considering Ban’s answer, all equipment and attendants did not accompany us, so it took a while… … .”

“good.”

As Lennok rose from his seat, a chair made of tree roots disappeared down the yard.

Standing with his cane in front of the fallen young man, Lennok nodded.

“I think I know roughly why you called me. Call me.”

There was no way he wouldn’t know that Lennok was doing most of his work through Jenny.

The reason why I took the risk and tried to send a message directly to Lennok as soon as I specified the address.

Wouldn’t that have something to do with what Lennok left behind in Machine City Machina?

I didn’t really like the way things were done, but I needed to hear what he had to say.

Armand lowered his head, unable to hide his relief.

“Thank you for accepting the invitation.”

“How long will it take?”

“I will be there in about 10 minutes from the transit area in Area 17.”

Lennok laughed as he pictured a map of the Balkans in his mind.

“Almost from the other side of the city, 10 minutes is enough… … well, good.”

Lennok said and turned around.

“Follow me. I plan to clean the mansion during my spare time.”

“… … Can I help you?”

Armand’s answer was quite quick-witted, but Lennok nodded as if asking something.

“Alternative system psychic. It also belongs to the axis with a fairly high reproducibility rate.”

“Go, thank you.”

“At first glance, it seemed suitable for cleaning and other household tasks.”

“… … .”

Armand, at a loss for words, quietly followed Lennok into the mansion.

Wizard’s Mansion. It is also a demon cave that annihilated all intruders in less than 5 minutes.

Armand stepped into the hallway with a nervous expression, confirmed the scene of the shaking hallway, and froze on the spot.

Kurur… … !!!

The entire mansion is turbulent as if it were animated, flipping and rotating the direction of the corridor and the structure of the ceiling.

A strange phenomenon that pushes and melts foreign substances that are not originally Lenok’s, and slowly discharges the by-products to the outside.

“I will set the target designation. It should be fine to move now.”

Lennok lightly tapped Armand on the shoulder and stepped forward.

Armand asked, unable to move hastily and breaking out in a cold sweat.

“Um, what is this… … Did you endow the entire mansion with autonomous will?”

“To put it mildly, it’s more like taking the biomechanism of a specific life form and incorporating it.”

Lennok replied indifferently.

“If you have to divide the system, it is originally a method closer to witchcraft. It is a method of patterning the motion performance data of the stomach and combining them into magical power.”

“How the hell is that even possible… … .”

Armand is a person with psychic powers, but as much as he works as an aide, he has a wide knowledge of various techniques.

However, even as such, he had never heard of a magic that made the entire mansion look like a creature’s stomach.

Wasn’t the result of the investigation that it was not easy to guess the solid body magic system?

‘The data itself was not what I expected… … .’

Creation magic [Aramatos’ Camouflage].

Range magic realized by combining the camouflage ecology of a creature called Aramatos with the mansion environment.

However, Aramatos is not a creature that originally existed in this world, but one of the knowledge of the old world that he picked up from beyond the Ascension Gate.

It was realized by grafting research data on the camouflage ecosystem of monsters living in swamps and digesting steel through creation magic.

When I first studied it, I thought it was useless knowledge, but when combined with creation magic, there was surprisingly a lot of room for application in a different direction from existing magic.

Armand, who was hesitant, slowly divided his body into several alter egos and began to clean the mansion.

More than five alter egos are busy cleaning the mansion and removing the corpse.

Coincidentally, the corpse of the first Ain species was dragged out by the fourth Armand.

“Who is this sub-species?”

Lennok asked.

“It is bizarre that there is no sign, and on the contrary, the organizational power is quite sophisticated. It’s as if you were born with this kind of stealth.”

“… … .”

“I think it has something to do with you beheading them all at once.”

“… … To be precise, they are not sub-species.”

Armand 4 let out a small sigh and answered.

“As a minority people living in hiding near a lonely city, it is said that they grow up sharing their spirit with each other. I don’t use language at all unless I’m communicating with outsiders.”

“It is a minority.”

“Because they share the same spirit, they speak little, were born in the underground bedrock, are familiar with the shadows, and are good at stealth. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also having a headache because they are mobilized for organized theft all over the continent.”

“Right… … .”

“In order to completely neutralize them, the head must eventually be removed, but it must also be dealt with at the same time as it affects nearby tribes.”

Armand 2, who was washing the floor with a rolling pin, said instead of Armand 4, who dragged the corpse into the garden.

“However, in recent years, there has been a strong tendency to move with employees, so we are going to investigate this situation separately.”

It was only then that Lennok understood the situation and nodded.

Minorities that share a spirit as a tribal unit.

Perhaps they spoke so little even as they were dying, because they made a living by stealing systematically.

However, if you have to share your mind even when you don’t want to, you are vulnerable to mental system attacks.

I had guessed at the point where the creation magic I had thrown, Psycho Shocker, was working, but after hearing what Armand said, it became clear.

“It is an innate ability that is born in each tribe… … Is it a different kind from the blood system?”

It was the first time that even Lennok had seen such an organized congenital anomaly, and it was regrettable that the situation had turned out this way.

If the situation hadn’t overlapped, we might have been able to investigate how their mind-sharing works.

After meeting Aosh Spero, an 8th-level psychometrician, Lennok felt the need to study the mental system in detail.

Woooo!!

Meanwhile, the sky over the mansion suddenly turned dark.

The moment Lennok inadvertently raised his gaze, Armand 1 confirmed his presence and nodded.

“Looks like the courier has arrived. I will do some more cleanup of the mansion with my attendants. Would you like to board first?”

* * *

Woooooo!!

A pitch-black airship that does not allow even a single point of light to escape.

Seated inside the airship is Lennok, who is leaning on a chair with his eyes closed, and the Vulcan Defense Forces soldiers watching him with a look of great tension.

“You waited a long time.”

Armand, who had finished cleaning up in the meantime, got on the airship at a quick pace.

“We retrieved all the bodies scattered around the mansion and cleaned up the traces. but… … .”

“but?”

“It was difficult to access the basement lab and living space on the second floor, so I didn’t touch it.”

“… … .”

The fact that they broke into Lennok’s mansion in the first place was due to the side effect of digging into the mass magic formula in the laboratory.

If it wasn’t for the shock that the ascendant’s will erupted into a backlash, they wouldn’t have been allowed to cross the barrier and enter the mansion in the first place.

It was only natural that it would be impossible to enter other areas of the mansion for cleaning now that the research was over.

Rather, should we trust the attitude of Armand who honestly revealed and reported the fact?

Armand said with a much cleaner face, as if he had washed his face while cleaning the mansion.

“I explained to the residents nearby that it was a joint training of the National Guard, so please consider it if there is room to mention the incident later.”

“understood.”

“Then let’s move right away. He will be waiting for you in the Senate of the Central Council.”

The sleek, streamlined fuselage rises from its place without generating any wind or shock.

The appearance of an airship that soars through the sky of a megalopolis and glides leisurely over the buildings.

It is a landscape that has not been seen in the Balkans in the meantime.

But the first thing that caught Lennok’s eyes was the fact that an airship similar to the one Lennok was on was floating all over the sky.

Air traffic in megacities, where flying is difficult due to the intermittent magnetic storms in undeveloped areas.

And Lennok knew where that cause and effect was.

“It looks like the anti-gravity engine is completely commercialized.”

“Ah, you haven’t heard from Mr. Van yet.”

Armand explained, wiping the blood from the nape of his neck with a handkerchief.

“Regulations and institutionalization of airships equipped with anti-gravity engines were completely completed a week ago. A company that has been licensed to do business is putting out a prototype, so soon you will see many of these airships.”

“… … .”

Is it like creating a new transportation system in a congested megalopolis?

Of course, since it was a successful project led by Lennok himself, he thought it would one day become like this.

Looking at the airships swimming all over the city gave me a new impression.

Seeing that Lennok was interested in the anti-gravity engine, Armand cleared his throat and added an explanation.

“Evan Bylon, the designer of the anti-gravity engine, is truly a genius. I wonder if Ban-nim has even heard the name once.”

A completely different attitude from the first time, which looked somewhat stiff. Did he become speechless after getting out of the tense battle scene?

Maybe this is Armand’s original personality.

“Although he only appeared in public once, he is a person with such a unique atmosphere that his presentation video at the expo is still talked about. There are many researchers who want to follow the Bylon proof method of the paper presented for the first time, as well as the presentation method, at the investment briefing session.”

“… … .”

Whether Lennok reacted or not, he didn’t seem to like it very much, so Armand talked as much as he wanted to say.

Rather, the soldiers who were frozen on both sides of Lennok were restless at Armand’s words.

“However, it is regrettable that Professor Bylon himself has almost no outside activities, and the dean of Ravatenon University completely ignores him, so he is hardly contacted from this side. If he just contacted me, he would readily decide to invest in companies and institutions lined up.”

Judging from what he said, it seems that he was personally interested in these fields.

“I sometimes have the opportunity to attend similar business investment briefings as a public official, but I have to say that I am rather annoyed now that there are so many researchers who try to imitate Professor Bylon… … .”

“Ah, Chief Armand.”

“hmm? Is there a problem?”

The soldier who hurriedly dissuaded Armand said in a trembling voice.

“Well, wouldn’t it be better to go quietly… … It is fast.”

Anyway, Lenoch feels uncomfortable with Armand’s chatter and is afraid of how he will react.

Perhaps it was because they, too, had heard about what Lennok had done in Makina in Van’s name.

However, Armand licked his lips as if regretting the soldier’s dissuade.

“Um… … But this is a really interesting story.”

“… … .”

No, now that I see it, he might just be a guy who likes to chat.

Lennox smiled and shook his head.

“Go ahead.”

In response, the soldier who had been holding back Armand quietly kept his mouth shut, and Armand became more excited and started talking.

“That’s it, there are rumors that Professor Bylon is not just one person, but a think tank made up of several teams.”

“… … what?”

“They all use the name of Evan Bylon, but in fact, the research is a product of collective intelligence, not one person.”

Armand did not wait for Lennoc’s reaction and spoke excitedly.

“Professor Bylon has been working in the Department of Elements after being noticed by Chair Professor Aris Richellen, but he said that he did not show much research despite his tenure as an assistant professor. Rather, he said, he was more likely to run lectures or get caught up in strange incidents.”

“… … .”

Have you been involved in so many strange incidents at university?

Hagiya had even experienced a terror attack against the Department of Elements, so it was not an ordinary incident.

“In addition, there are rumors that Professor Bylon’s identity itself was quite unclear before he was guaranteed by Chair Professor Richellin… … They say they haven’t even gotten their PhD yet. You can get your hands on it whenever you want. He is an enigmatic figure in many ways compared to his brilliant intellect.”

“… … .”

Lennok, who had been silent, muttered, averting his eyes indifferently.

“You must have done a lot of research.”

“In fact, Professor Bylon is one of the most promising candidates for the Central Council Technical Advisory Committee.”

Armand lowered his voice and whispered.

“As a congressional aide like me also went through the job of recruiting Professor Bylon once, there is a lot of information that I have heard about.”

“is it?”

“Have you ever met Professor Bylon… … .”

At Armand’s words, Lennok shook his head.

“According to what you said, he must be someone who doesn’t go out well in the first place. Aside from the matter of interest, I think he must be a very prudent and considerate person.”

“Hmm, it seems that Mr. Ban also values ​​Professor Bylon quite highly.”

[…] … .]

He could feel the spirit’s subtle gaze in his arms, but Lennok pretended not to know.

In the meantime, Armand, who cleared his throat and raised his mana, quietly blocked out the noise around him.

“I’m only telling you this secretly, but… … .”

Armand, who quietly turned his gaze to the soldiers, murmured.

“In fact, the Central Council has already secured members of the think tank Evan Bylon.”
