The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 872

Eyes that see fate (8)

Wow!!!

Although it is an isolated space without a single window, you can feel it.

The spaceship, which had jumped out without even opening the hangar door properly, was flying as if it was just grazing the ground.

The shape of a spaceship that moves like a bullet racing along the ground, rather than swimming in the sky.

“Has the entire District 19 become a gate connected to the open sea? “I think I need an accurate explanation.”

However, Lennok immediately asked despite the sudden pressure.

“If that is true, this administrative procedure itself makes no sense in the first place. “Were you thinking about committing suicide?”

Area 19 is one of the most dangerous and secretive closed areas in the Balkans.

It is a forbidden area within the city that maintains the strictest and strongest security and confidentiality.

Even Area 25, which Lennok visited, seemed somewhat lacking in quarantine facilities and security compared to Area 19.

Although I thought that if it was a closed area more dangerous than Area 25, where Kaise’s past was sleeping, it would be hiding secrets beyond imagination.

Could it be that there was a [gate] to the open sea that did not exist in several places on the continent?

For Lennok, who came to see how uncontrollable the [Gate] of the Open Sea was and how it was created-

[this. I guess I said it for no reason.]

However, the deputy mayor smiled calmly despite Lennok’s sharp criticism.

[Don’t be hasty. Can’t you see that I’m here?]

“… … .”

Is the deputy mayor saying that he will not choose a method that ignores safety at this time?

The deputy mayor said as he settled down and leaned back against the back of his seat.

[It looks like you know something about the gates of the open sea, but that’s not the case here. It would be difficult if you asked me to explain something that I cannot explain.]

“What do you mean?”

[It is true that there is a door to the open sea in Area 19, but that fact itself is not important.]

“… … .”

[Well, you will find out when you arrive. It won’t take long, so let’s talk after we finish moving.]

The moment the deputy mayor leisurely nodded his head, his eyes turned to the ship’s hull.

Strange sounds began to echo from the ceiling, walls, and floor of the ship.

Kakak, Kakak, Kakakak!!

Tak, tat tak, ta ta ta ta tak!!

A strange sound that is harsh to the ear, as if something is being scraped, burned, or ridiculed.

An eerie feeling, as if dozens of unknown shapes were clinging to the ship’s hull and gnawing at every direction.

“voice is… … .”

But Lapis didn’t seem to have the presence of mind left to pay attention to such noise and shock.

As soon as the spaceship moved, the overwhelming sensation of being struck from all sides of the ship took away all of my consciousness.

[Oh, it’s nothing special.]

The deputy mayor explained, looking at Lapis’ agitated expression.

[These are National Guard soldiers stationed in the past to protect District 19.]

“… … “Are you saying that the person pounding on the hull right now is a living person?”

The deputy mayor nodded leisurely.

[It used to be like that.]

“… … .”

I can’t even imagine how deep and complex the secret story hidden in those passing words is.

If there had been National Guard soldiers stationed there to protect District 19 in the past.

If they are still here decades after District 19 was shut down.

Can we say that the soldiers abandoned there are now alive?

Lennok was lost in thought, looking closely at the deputy mayor who was slightly squirming in the seat across from him.

‘It might be more dangerous than I thought. ‘Should we prepare for the worst?’

Although I expected that there would be dangerous variables while heading to District 19. If the entire area is connected to the open sea, it would be a disaster that even Lennok would not be able to handle.

Lennok may be able to get out on his own, but there is no guarantee that he will be able to get Lapis and Patisia out safely.

The only thing we know about District 19 right now is that there was once a theme study on ‘Androids’ conducted there.

What happened there that led to the existence of a passage connected to the open sea beyond?

How on earth did the research on androids fail that is why the [Moon] remains in its place?

In the end, it’s something you can’t know without going directly into it.

The deputy mayor made it seem as if his presence was a guarantee of safety, but in Lennok’s view, it was actually… … .

[The distance from the hangar to the outskirts of Area 19 is less than 2000m. Don’t you think it’s an absurdly short distance to travel using a spaceship like this?]

“… … .”

[However, if there is a reason why you must enter Area 19 through this procedure-]

The moment the deputy mayor lifted his gaze and folded his fingers.

Float!!

With the terrible noise of the hull collapsing, the spaceship stopped in place.

Inertia as if the body was jumping forward despite all the safety devices installed on the seat.

Kakak, kakakak… … .

Only then did the annoying noises that seemed to be gnawing at the hull disappear one by one.

Only after it had finally calmed down and the spacecraft had become quiet did the deputy mayor release the safety device and stand up.

[This is because the entire District 19 has already become a distorted space distorted by the flow of time.]

Slam!!

With those words, the boarding gate that was far from the seat automatically opened.

The lower part where the propellant was attached falls off as if separated and is cut in half.

Wow!!

Cross sections of the split hull fell apart, and the outside scenery began to come into view.

Lapis, who was frowning at the pouring light, opened her mouth slightly when she saw the scenery seen from afar.

A huge skyscraper, tens of meters high, stood upside down in the sky.

“… … .”

Click.

Release the safety device, which is released naturally, and get up from the seat and walk out.

A soft breeze caressing my cheeks. The air I felt was surprisingly warm.

A strange sky mixed half blue and half dark night.

Above it, several buildings are hanging upside down, as if they will fall to the ground.

Kuoo… … !!

Faint vibrations and sound waves passing by my ears.

It’s not just about defying the flow of gravity and floating upside down.

Some buildings stand at right angles in the empty air, while others gently rotate and protrude from beyond the clouds.

A strange space where all kinds of buildings stand randomly, without distinction between ground and sky.

All those shapes rising and falling without direction or center seem to exist only to disturb the five senses of humans.

At the moment, even the patissia, who had followed Lennok down, was slightly hesitant at the sight that went beyond common sense.

[Please follow me. The door is over there.]

Finally, the deputy mayor got off the spaceship, stretched and started walking ahead.

[Since I have been serving as a guide for a long time, I will explain what happened here as I go.]

* * *

I walk in the middle of the city where there are no people at all.

Among the buildings that come into view every time I turn my gaze, none of them are still standing.

Walk under a huge vertical pedestrian bridge and cross by stepping on a horizontal building.

The scene of a desolate office reflected through the glass windows of the building below. A creepy feeling as if something is peeking through a transparent glass window.

However, the vice mayor walked as if he was very used to walking here.

[It hasn’t been long since numbers were assigned to District 19. Until then, this place was just a huge, nameless laboratory.]

“A laboratory?”

[It is known in the public that this area was designated as a closed area due to the failure of the Black Consumer Project, but that is incorrect.]

The deputy mayor raised his gaze and pointed to a building in the distance.

[This is a Geumyeok area that was abandoned after experiencing an even bigger failure while trying to fix the failure of the project.]

“… … .”

How on earth should we work to resolve the failure of the project so that a crack toward the open sea can open within the area?

Whioooo!!

A skyscraper of overwhelming height standing in the middle of an empty square.

In this area, where all kinds of buildings fly without supports, this is the only building that stands with its feet on the ground.

It was also a building located right below the center of the sky, where day and night mix and diverge.

Squeak.

The deputy mayor opened the door and entered the elevator located at the end of the hallway lobby.

The scenery of the outskirts seen through the glass window. Lennok, who was looking out the window, opened his mouth.

“hand.”

Before he knew it, his eyes were focused on the vice mayor’s fingertips.

“I got hurt. “I’m bleeding.”

[…] … .]

“I think it broke because it got caught between the seats when I was sitting on the rover earlier.”

The nail on the vice mayor’s index finger is crushed, and blood is dripping in drops.

Lennok said, looking at the finger.

“You seem to be quite insensitive to pain. “I can’t believe I can endure it even though my fingertips, where all the nerves are concentrated, are crushed.”

[I just don’t want to let a minor injury get in the way of something important.]

As the deputy mayor wiped away the blood running down his sleeve, Lennok laughed.

“Was the reason you kept tossing and turning inside the probe for a similar reason?”

[…] … .]

Kugugu!!

On either side of the spacious elevator, Lennok and the deputy mayor make eye contact.

The deputy mayor’s eyes widened in amusement, and Lennok stared at her in silence.

“Evan.”

At that moment, Lapis, who was standing behind Lennok, opened her mouth.

From the moment he entered the closed area, the lighthouse keeper’s reaction was to forget the trivial things around him and focus only on the existence of this space.

Lapis raised her head with her eyes closed and muttered quietly.

“I think we’ve arrived.”

Tiring!!

At that moment, the elevator door opened, revealing a wide hallway with a red carpet.

Glass door located at the end of the hallway. A spacious terrace that can be easily opened and closed.

At the end of the rooftop, which may have originally been used as a helicopter landing pad, a huge black crack appeared.

Pajik, Pajik… … !!

Like blackened lightning flashing, a black electric current blooms in the empty air.

The sky outside District 19 is distorted as day and night mix.

At the center of the abnormal climate, a huge spatial crack is shining darkly.

[This is the [gate] of the open sea that exists in area 19.]

The vice mayor said softly, twisting his fingers and rubbing them.

[And it is also the final proof that the project is damaged beyond recovery.]

“… … .”

Passing by Lapis, who was looking at the gate to the open sea with a complicated expression, the vice mayor slowly began to walk towards the crack.

[Wizard. You asked me earlier whether the entire District 19 had been transformed into a gate to the open sea. That’s not true.]

“… … .”

[The true secret of Area 19 is not the fact that the door to the open sea is hidden… … .]

The deputy mayor’s arm, which slowly extended its hand toward the crack, began to slowly pass through the crack.

“… … !!”

Passage to the open sea. It’s a miracle that an ordinary human can push a part of his body through a crack and still maintain its shape.

While Lennok noticed this and frowned, the deputy mayor, who had pushed one of his arms across the crack, calmly looked away.

[The space connected through the door is not connected to another open sea, but to the deepest part of District 19.]

“The deepest part?”

The moment Lennok understood the meaning of those words and muttered them.

[I think I understand it well.]

The deputy mayor nodded.

[Part of Area 19’s space and time exists beyond the open sea. This door is the exit to the open sea, and the entrance to the most dangerous place in District 19.]

* * *

The core of District 19 exists outside the open sea.

In reality, a part of space and time that should exist as part of this world exists beyond the gate of the open sea.

However, even after hearing such an absurd explanation, Lennok had a feeling that what the deputy mayor said was not wrong.

If that crack is the same as the [Gate] to the open sea that Lennok knows, the moment it touches it, the entire body will be torn apart or corrupted and go crazy.

The presence of the deputy mayor continuing the conversation with one arm pushed through the crack proved that the crack in front of him was a different phenomenon from the [door].

Perhaps he was thinking that he needed to show it to others in order to convince them of this statement itself.

“Do you want to say that part of this world ended up in the open ocean due to the failure of the project?”

[I don’t have much to say on that part. Because of the ban imposed on the project, there are more than one person whose mouths have been tied.]

The deputy mayor smiled and slowly pulled his hand out from beyond the crack.

She slowly tapped on the iron mask that covered her lower body and laughed.

[Would you believe that this is the result of being punished for trying to appease Geumje?]

“… … .”

I thought it was strange that they were covering the lower part of the building rather than anywhere else, but maybe it was the result of my mouth being ruined while trying to reveal the project’s taboo.

This is understandable to Lennok, who is aware of the severity of the ban through other project officials.

[What is important about the detailed circumstances of those who failed? What is important is that the lighthouse keeper visited this place.]

The deputy mayor’s eyes widened as he saw Lapis hesitating at the door.

[If a person carrying the mission of observing the open sea searches for the door, wouldn’t the purpose be determined?]

“… … .”

[To come into contact with the sea of ​​darkness that is disconnected from reality, or to remain in a similar state. If it wasn’t to that extent, there would be no way I could accept the city council’s conditions and visit the Balkans alone.]

The vice mayor’s voice as he said that was filled with clear confidence.

[I don’t know what it is, but I know what you want is beyond this door.]

“… … “There is one mistake in that statement, Representative Weinston.”

Only then did Lapis look back at the vice mayor and say.

Her light blue eyes had sunk so deep that her emotions could no longer be read.

“I’m not here to bring anything.”

[…] … .]

“To see if I can make it to the end. You are here to face your destiny.”

After saying that, Lapis started walking towards the door without saying a word.

Gooooo!!

The appearance of Lapis standing alone in front of a crack where black lightning flashes, leaving the others behind.

Lennok was lost in thought as he looked at Lapis’ back.

‘Madrea Falcier… … .’

Lapis Falseer is not here to gain meaning outside the open sea.

All she wants is to meet the consciousness of Cheongyeon, who is still at the border of this world.

Contact the memory of Heavenly Gyeon through a ceremony near the open sea. The plan is to retrieve all of the remaining lighthouse keepers’ abilities.

Will Lapis, who has recovered all of the lighthouse keeper’s abilities, truly be able to get closer to ascension?

What is the standard for qualifications for ascension?

Didn’t Lennoc also accept Lapis’ security to watch this happen?

But something is strange.

It is clear that the place we arrived at with the Vice Mayor’s guidance is District 19, and it is also clear that the secrets of the closed area she explained are not lies.

Even though it is clear that we are witnessing secrets and secrets that cannot be known unless a person of such power steps forward and guides us.

An inexplicable sense of discomfort whose identity could not be guessed from the moment Amy Weinston appeared.

Lapis slowly raises her hand and places it over the door.

A careful gesture, as if he was opening a crack at the end of the sky with his bare hands.

At the moment when a faint joy began to appear in the eyes of the deputy mayor who was watching from behind, Lennok put an end to all judgment and raised his magic power.

“Lapis, step back!!”

“… … yes?”

The moment when Lapis looked back in embarrassment.

Whoa!!

The huge door of darkness twisted greatly and began to pull Lapis in with an intense shock wave.

A movement as if black cracks widened on both sides and engulfed Lapis’ body at once.

“… … !!!”

“Lapis!”

Patisia shouted in surprise, and Lapis also reacted immediately.

Lapis, who flashed her eyes and raised her supernormal abilities, forcibly distorted her vision in all directions, increasing the distance at which the crack would close.

Geek… … !!

An exquisite technique that buys time by increasing the space swallowed up in the meantime, rather than directly interfering with the crack.

The [Moon] of the open sea, which was about to swallow Lapis with a strange sound, was delayed due to the instantaneous distance.

Lennok, who appeared in front of Lapis, drove a magical wedge into the crack and forcibly stopped it from closing.

“… … Evan?”

Geek!!

Lennok, who immediately pulled Lapis’s new form from the spot, asked.

“Are you okay?”

“yes. “Thanks to you for yelling, I barely made it on time.”

Lapis calmly stepped back and slowly stood up.

Thanks to the lighthouse keeper’s ability to immediately exercise his supernormal abilities and gain time, Lennok was able to extract enough magical power to intervene and stop the crack.

While Patisia carefully helped Lapis up and stood up, a cold voice rang out from behind the three people.

[As expected, you did not have access rights.]

Taaaang!!

A strong gunshot rang out from behind Lapis.

Patisia spread her wings and embraced Lapis, but no pain was felt.

The shadow of the deputy mayor, who had pulled the pistol out of his arms and pulled the trigger, and Lennok’s shadow, blocking the muzzle right in front of him, intersected.

“I thought it might happen like this, but it’s much faster than I expected.”

Toad!!

Lennok laughed as he dropped the bullet that had burned and melted in his hand.

“Isn’t it too impatient to show your true colors just because something went wrong for a moment?”

[I really want to ask you, wizard.]

Even after the muzzle of the pistol was blocked by Lennok’s hand, the deputy mayor’s voice was calm.

Her eyes flashed intensely as if blazing as she glared at the wizard in front of her.

[Why do you have access to Area 19 on behalf of Lapis Falseer?]

“Evan. As expected, this is… … !!”

“In directly explaining the secrets of the closed area, you mixed a lie with the truth.”

While Lapis was looking up at the sky with a stiff face, Lennok spoke.

“The door you just touched is a trap. “This guy had no intention of showing you the inside of District 19 from the beginning.”

[Hahaha!! There is some absurdity in that statement. I have never lied to you.]

The deputy mayor burst into laughter with his arms wide open.

[It’s just that since the deepest part of Area 19 was isolated outside the open sea, no one has ever reached there.]

Quick!!

At that moment, the huge city center where Lennok and the deputy mayor were standing began to shatter like glass.
