Genius Wizard Who Eats Medicine Chapter 836
Takeover (4)
An underground cavity located in Area 44. A gray area surrounded by jamming, whose location is not disclosed even by satellite coordinates.
A vast hallway that exists under the dark stairs. Lennok sat with his eyes closed in the examination room, which was illuminated with pale light.
A thin shirt is worn over the upper body, and thin connectors are attached to various places to increase magical power.
“good. like that. doing well.”
Next to Lennok, who was concentrating his mind, a sticky voice resounded as if something was stuck in his throat.
An emaciated young man in a wheelchair was staring at the graph printed in real time without blinking.
“Your magic manipulation efficiency is still unrealistic. A great mage wouldn’t care about the distance between the body and mind, but even taking that into consideration, it’s a great shame.”
The body of the young man pushing up his thick eyeglasses flashed with a dim light, as if a mechanical device had been inserted.
ugh!!
Meanwhile, Lennok ignored the young man’s words and concentrated on manipulating magic with his eyes closed.
An experiment that responds to signals coming in through connectors attached to the body, sending or receiving mana, and measuring speed and accuracy.
The fluctuating graph on the screen twists and tangles in a complex trajectory, and then regains a sense of stability by drawing parallel lines in an instant.
Beep… … !!
At the same time, the number [27] floating on the graph.
The voice of the young man who pushed his skinny body over the wheelchair was immersed in faint admiration.
“Passed level 27 of the pseudo-magical manipulation test… … . From here on out, it’s not actually a standard made for you to pass.”
Even in the midst of that, the graph soared above the screen drawing an endless upward curve, and the unit of measurement was rapidly changed.
The moment he was about to reach 31 or higher beyond 28, 29, 30, the young man immediately nodded and turned off his equipment.
food!!
“Until there. I think I’ve seen enough of it, so let’s start the examination on the other side.”
“… … Why did you stop?”
Then Lennok opened his eyes and murmured.
“I wanted to try as much as I could for the first time in a long time.”
For a crude form of testing magic manipulation by attaching connectors, the standards and difficulty of the test were surprisingly high.
Even Lennok, the 8th level archmage, had to pay some attention after level 25.
I wanted to take a test to the limit as I had the desire to compete for the first time in a while, but it was a pity that it was cut off at the point where I still had a lot of energy left.
“Because I’m crazy… … .”
Seeing such Lennok, the young man shook his head with a look of absurdity.
“What you just did is a test sheet software created to test the ranks of mages in Arsnova.”
“so?”
“Among all the patients and wizards I examined, none of them reached level 30, and there was no standard for measurement after that. If we continued testing there, the software itself would have been broken.”
“… … .”
“As in the past, even now, magic manipulation alone is at an unprecedented level. It’s hard to measure its potential even by Arsnova’s standards… … .”
“It seems pretty fun for you to say that.”
After removing the connector attached to his arm, Lennok glanced back at the young man and asked.
“Was the test I just took that much fun?”
Just as Lennok said, the young man shook his head in disgust, but a faint smile was on his lips.
A bizarre attitude, as if the current situation itself was ridiculous and difficult to bear.
The young man twitched his lips at Lennok’s words.
“No, that… … Yes, that’s right. It’s definitely a little funny.”
“What do you mean?”
“Because until Arsnova was destroyed, we believed that only that city could be the only answer.”
“… … .”
“Except for the cowardly endangered species, I thought there was no need to consider other possibilities. But what about now?”
The young man laughed and giggled.
“The central city has collapsed, and there are talents outside the city that exceed standards. How funny it was when you think about it now… … .”
What did the young man think when he saw that Lennok had passed Arsnova’s test to the end in one go?
It was self-help and lamentation that only those who had lived directly in the central city could do.
The agony of a survivor who made the now destroyed city his hometown and lived there for the rest of his life.
The ridicule allowed only to him against life and civilization that has already died.
When Lennok stared blankly at the young man instead of replying, he swung the wheelchair around.
“Well, it must be something that a genius like you doesn’t really agree with. Forget it.”
“… … .”
“Magic manipulation seems to have been optimized, so let’s skip that checkup. It’s not even my area of expertise anyway.”
The young man’s assertion that even though he possesses Arsnova’s magic manipulation test software and has the knowledge to judge its standards, he is not in his field of expertise.
But Lennok knew it wasn’t a lie.
The owner of the examination room Lennok had come to was a real resident of Arsnova and an excellent doctor.
Vampire Doctor Alejandro Murphy.
An authority specializing in self-examination such as blood and genetic analysis, and one of the few survivors who escaped when the central city of Arsnova was destroyed.
He was also a virtuoso, now severing all other ties and confined alone in a dark underground ward, engrossed in his own business.
It was possible thanks to Madam, who was also a vampire, that he was able to connect with this vampire, whom few people knew even in the Balkans.
It was a close encounter, but now he was a doctor who could be of considerable help to Lennok.
Despite his eccentric personality, few people could examine Lennok’s body and diagnose him like this.
click!!
Murphy, who had come with an armful of syringes and needles, did not hesitate to insert them onto Lennok’s shoulder.
“… … .”
Lennok frowned, but shook his head without saying anything.
However, Murphy seemed to be annoyed by the slightest movement and patted Lennok on the back.
“Stay still. I’m having a hard time concentrating.”
“If you forcibly control your bodily reactions with intentions, it will be difficult to get a checkup.”
Lennok replied nonchalantly.
“I just try to react as naturally as possible.”
“Befitting a high-ranking wizard, you make a grandiose excuse.”
Murphy snorted.
“Isn’t it because you didn’t follow my diagnosis that you did such a troublesome thing in the first place?”
“Diagnosis?”
“Life support. Data records have not been updated for nearly a month.”
Murphy’s eyes shone sharply as he inserted dozens of needles into Lennok’s body.
“Did you know that I customized the retainer in the form of a cane so that I could carry it around for no reason?”
“… … .”
“If you think of your very peculiar constitution, you have to compare the highs and lows of your condition with the data you have accumulated on a daily basis to find out the cause, but to come only at such an ambiguous time… … . It’s not very special.”
“… … It’s not without reason.”
Realizing that there was no room for excuses, Lennok evaded an answer.
In fact, Lennok was also conscious of the fact that he had hardly been carrying life support lately.
It is worn when in class status, but it is not carried even in urgent battles or urgent situations.
Not to mention, there has been little external activity lately as a dog, so it is only natural that the maintenance device record has hardly been updated.
“Strictly speaking, they didn’t come in droves until they died. I’m just trying to make available opportunities when the time comes.”
“Are you trying to play with me?”
“… … .”
Murphy ignored Lennok and stuck needles all over his torso, connecting tubes to all of them.
A bizarre figure with dozens of medical devices and insertion tubes hanging around him, with Lennok sitting in the middle of a vast examination room.
As Murphy backed away in his wheelchair and activated the machine, Lennok’s blood began to flow very slowly through his veins.
Rather than extracting a large amount of blood from a single tube, blood is drawn from multiple parts of the body simultaneously through dozens of tubes.
“There is an inflection point where the magical power projection rate of the blood changes depending on the degree of blood vessel damage and over-recovery.”
Perhaps noticing Lennok’s stare at his own blood flowing out, Murphy added an explanation.
“If you came right after you were injured, you wouldn’t have to go this far, but you should forcefully create a comparison group this way. Please don’t complain.”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“Be quite.”
“… … .”
Murphy quickly drew blood and immediately removed the needle from Lennok’s body.
When he applied the hemostatic agent on the skin, the blood stopped in an instant.
It would take some time for the wound to heal, but even if it wasn’t for that, it didn’t matter because Lennok’s whole body was full of blood bruises.
“under… … .”
Even if you look at it all together, the amount is equivalent to one blood transfusion pack.
However, Murphy looked at Lennok’s blood collected in this way with rapturous eyes as if he were looking at a supreme treasure.
“Even after a long time, the concentration rate is still phenomenal. beautiful… … .”
“Since the owner is listening, will you refrain from such unpleasant words?”
“shut up. What the hell do you know about the aesthetics of fresh blood?”
“I don’t really want to know… … .”
Lennok smiled as he sat back on the sofa in the examination room with his arms crossed.
“There must have been a lot of coveted people in the past. You and Madam don’t seem very different in that respect.”
“Ha, that… … .”
Murphy snorted, but unlike before, he couldn’t deny it.
That must be proof that the blood of high-ranking wizards is of great value to a vampire like Murphy.
“Now that it’s done, can you tell me the results? How long will it take to upload the results to the database and compare them?”
It’s not just his insight or knowledge that underpins Murphy’s skills and expertise.
Arsnova’s medical records he brought with him while escaping from the central city.
Although it is only part of it, it is very helpful just to look at the cases of patient examinations recorded in the database.
In the first place, the reason Lennok came to Murphy for this examination was to use the database.
“… … wait a bit Because it is not possible to enter the collected blood into the database. It needs to be adjusted with minimal adjustments to allow for comparison.”
“I want it to end quickly.”
“It’s something I’ve done before. to be patient. In the first place, why didn’t you come to me right after the fight with you?”
At that moment, Lennok’s fingers, which had been leisurely tapping his knee, stopped for a moment.
Murphy said as he put the blood into the centrifuge, not paying attention to Lennok’s reaction.
“The physical records of high-ranking wizards who have just finished battle are very valuable data. If you come on time, the diagnosis will be taken care of free of charge, so you can visit without forgetting.”
“… … The work of Peisha Grisburn. I knew it. Who did you hear from?”
“Have you forgotten that I came to this city working at the trauma hospital in Dead Rise?”
Murphy laughed out loud.
“Even though I don’t work with them anymore, I often hear about the generals… … . Really serious problems get in touch with me too.”
“News about the generals… … .”
Are you thinking that the injuries on Lennok’s body were caused by fighting Peisha?
It’s not strange, since the official record of fastness was actually the last time I fought against you.
“More than that, there’s something I want to talk about while the database is running.”
Murphy approached the window of the examination room, which was covered by a curtain, and smirked as he turned to Lennok.
“Do you have any intention of cooperating with the business you did last time?”
“business? I never did business with you in the first place-”
Having said that, Lennok remembered what had happened before and smiled bitterly.
“… … You mean blood business.”
When I first visited Murphy, Murphy had suggested that we experiment with Lennok’s blood, as we do now.
A blood sales business that uses superhuman blood as a doping agent and supplies it to customers across the continent.
At the time, Murphy used Lennok’s blood as a showcase to promote his business to his clients.
Lennok’s blood was never sold as a doping agent, but I do remember that the showcase itself ended up being pretty ridiculous.
“It seems that the conclusion has already been made on that part, but now there is room for further experimentation?”
When Lennok’s blood was brought in to death row inmates and witches who committed heinous crimes, superhumans who reached higher ranks could not handle the power, resulting in self-destruction.
At that time, the experiment was conducted against a level 5 superhuman, so if you want to increase the data, you will have to target a superhuman with a higher level.
While Lennok tilted his head, wondering if this vampire was planning to capture a superhuman level 6 or higher and experiment on the human body.
“No, that’s not it.”
Murphy smiled sullenly, probably noticing Lennok’s thoughts.
“I have a very interesting project for one of my clients, and with your help I think it could be done quickly.”
“… … .”
“The conditions are the same. A portion of your blood collected now will be used for the showcase, and the remaining blood will be disposed of immediately if there is no consent.”
Murphy said leisurely, leaving Lennok silent.
“You will only use it as a control group to compare your performance like last time, and there will be no blood circulation or your identity disclosed. If I did such a shallow trick against you in the first place, my life wouldn’t be spared.”
“If it ends similarly to that time, I wonder if there is a need for another experiment… … .”
Lennok, sitting back with his arms crossed, nodded at Murphy, who stood in front of the curtain.
“I will listen to the project first and then decide.”
“Okay, the gist of the project is simple. It’s about forcibly strengthening criminals who can’t be rehabilitated and raising them as hunting dogs. In the process, the doping agent I promoted will be used. but… … .”
“but?”
“It means I’m not the only one participating in the project.”
Murphy said and swiped back the curtains covering the examination room windows.
Whoaaaaaa!!
The scene of a huge underground arena broadcasted on a wide screen beyond the window.
Inside the prison on top of the arena, people with all sorts of vicious faces stare at each other while being locked up.
Thousands of spectators around them were shouting with heated cheers.
[Waaaaaaa!!!]
Above the heads of the criminals imprisoned in prison, pictures of Murphy and other people appeared.
The moment I realized that these were photos of so-called ‘partners’ who participated in this project along with Murphy.
“It will be a place to gather businesses that process and sell the blood of superhumans like me and compare whose work is the best.”
Murphy said while Lennok frowned.
“The so-called world’s greatest doping competition is being held.”
“… … .”
“One of our clients is a city council senator. It will start this evening in the undeveloped district and be finished in one day. how is it?”
Looking across the screen at the underground fighting arena, Murphy’s eyes glistened.
“Among the doping agents using the blood of countless superhumans, why not test whose blood is the most powerful?”
