Intervention (2)
Should we accept the damage to Turan’s body to see if Zionis’ remains remain?
It wasn’t that Eveline was worrying about this for nothing.
In order to explain the situation to the wizards of the Mage Tower at once, it would be most convenient to just show Turan’s corpse in his stomach.
said Lennok, who was looking down at the dead body of the Lion Giant with his limbs wide open.
“The power that the white lion used was to borrow the mana of the person who ate it immediately on the condition of cannibalism. Instead of being strong and instant, the magic power gained in that way was not permanent and volatilized over time.”
“Just listening to it makes me sick to my stomach. How disgusting images do you have to have to be able to do that… … .”
Turan said such nonsense as a predator, but considering that Croken and Felix shared a mindset similar to other humans, he must be crazy.
“Because of that, he put the members of the Senate into a coma and ate them one by one while hiding. To be able to fight at any time according to Zionis’ signal.”
Lennok paused for a moment before speaking.
“And I think…It is highly likely that Turan’s cannibalism did not follow the normal digestion process. The fact that I was able to use his magical power at the same time as I ate Zionis must be proof that decomposition and digestion took place almost simultaneously inside the body.”
“…good.”
Evelyn, who heard that, said with a much more comfortable face.
“Then let’s just carry it to the Magic Tower in this state. First of all, I’ll have to contact the Central Continent Headquarters of the Blaber Magic Tower and get their answer.”
With that said, she lifted up the corpse of a giant twice her height.
It’s buried in thick hair, so you can’t even see it properly.
“He’s an annoying child even after he dies…” … . wow smell… … .”
Lennok also burst into laughter at the muttering voice that came through the limp corpse of the giant.
* * *
The two immediately descended the melted bedrock and headed for the crash site of the slate where the other agents were waiting.
Among the Senate, even if there is no way to help those who have already died, those who are still alive must be revived.
“It seems difficult to come to consciousness right now.”
“still?”
“While the two of you entered the battle, we checked the situation among ourselves…. As of right now, it’s practically on the level of a living corpse. It would be impossible to even walk on your own.”
The person who is still alive is the oldest among the Senators. It was only to the extent that one arm was eaten, so the extent of the damage was understandable.
Poetry magic so powerful that even part of the limbs were cut off alive and eaten alive.
Regardless of how Gionis Verwein felt when he did this, the aftermath of the incident he left behind was intense.
Including Lennok and Evelyn, there are six people in this seat right now.
Of the 15 Senators located in the Western Continent branch, five survived.
In addition, hundreds of books and sorcery books stored in the collapsed Beecher.
And considering the hidden artifacts, it was impossible to move everyone at once.
“Did you contact the Magic Tower?”
“yes. I received an answer that they would immediately send reinforcements here to find out the context, but there is no news yet.”
“….”
Lennok and Evelyn exchanged glances at the same time and stood up.
It is not too far from the crater where the magic tower is located to the rocky area here.
If someone had been sent from the other side to find out the situation, it would have been normal if they had been caught by the two people’s magic detection.
But the fact that I haven’t even noticed anything so far… … .
“There is a problem.”
“Which one do you think? mage tower? Or pandemonium?”
“It’s not the magic tower. If all the mages of the tower had joined Zionis, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.”
“then….”
“Do you remember what Zionis said?”
Clap!!
Lennok muttered as he pulled out his shotgun and loaded it.
“I heard that two members of Pandemonium infiltrated the furnace and caused a disturbance. I let go of it then… … .”
If those two people imply the existence of Turan and another member, not Turan and Zionis.
No further answer was needed.
Evelyn also grabbed her quiver and immediately started walking out of the bedrock.
“The only area that leads in a straight line from the magic tower to the bedrock is a dry forest.”
A dead forest in which old trees that have withered from the heat are thickly stretched.
It is an area that gives off a bleak atmosphere with only the remains of strange trees that have sucked up iron instead of water and stiffened in the bedrock area.
“If someone is hiding and waiting for the right time, surely….”
Saying that, Evelyn stepped into the forest and hesitated.
I didn’t even have to look for it.
It was because I could vividly feel dozens of living, breathing signs as if the area inside this space had changed.
“….”
Between the branches of a tree that has long since died and hardened.
Dozens of wizards were tied up with strings of unknown material and hung upside down.
Even if they squirm from time to time as if they had already lost consciousness, few resist.
A bizarre landscape that looks as if it has caught and stored game.
and in the middle of the forest.
A huge spider was hanging upside down, staring at the two of them.
Or should I say a monster resembling a spider?
Ten legs and a thick body. And a young woman with a human upper body.
The monster’s mouth twitched as it looked at the two with its long hair hanging down to the ground with its eyes covered with thick blindfolds.
Evelyn immediately recognized who the opponent was and hardened her face.
“Agneta…. Was it you who infiltrated the Mage Tower with Turan… … .?”
“Do you know someone?”
Evelyn turned her head and whispered softly.
“…One of the heralds representing the official position of the Pandemonium. Among them, I tend to be at least moderate.”
Indeed, it seems that there was a reason why Evelyn did not enter into combat immediately.
Even in the pandemonium, he belongs to the moderate axis… … Lennox also looked at her curiously.
Agneta continued with a nonchalant expression despite the stares at her.
“I was waiting. Hyungung I thought you would figure it out right away.”
“Are you here to avenge Turan?”
“no.”
she answered.
“If you had thought of that, you know that you would have helped the male lion when it ran rampant. Rather, I was anxiously waiting for the day that idiot died.”
“….”
“I just came here to talk about the terms of the deal.”
Silence passed.
After thinking for a moment, Evelyn shook her head.
“If you ask me to light the fire, I won’t listen. It’s not something I can decide.”
“Oh, I don’t need that anymore.”
Agneta replied calmly.
Her hair, suspended in a spider’s web, swayed to and fro every time she shook her head.
“I found something similar in the deep sea of the northern hemisphere. Oh, can I not say this?”
“…what?”
Aside from Evelyn’s questioning, Lennok slightly lowered his head to hide his gaze.
Because those words gave me some confidence in what Pandemonium was doing all over the world.
They are really looking for and collecting relics of the old world left in this world.
Agneta naturally turned her words away.
“Anyway, that’s not what’s important, that’s what I want. Turan’s corpse. Do you guys still have them?”
“….”
“Just give me back and I’ll step back nicely.”
“Why do you want his body?”
“Isn’t it a pity that such a body just disappears into the dust?”
As Agneta raised her hand, a web snapped and one of the cocoons hanging from the tree fell beside her.
“All I had inside my head was an ugly appetite for eating human flesh, but that body has many uses.”
“…Do you think we will make a deal that will help you guys?”
“okay. I guess so. But will you change your mind after seeing this?”
The elongated spider legs move, neatly cutting off the cocoon and revealing the contents inside.
A stocky beard passed out with his eyes closed. A familiar middle-aged man’s face.
Mouser’s face was there.
“…!!”
Realizing that Agneta had thoroughly prepared for this meeting, Evelyn frowned faintly.
She wasn’t just waiting around here for the fight to end.
With the intention of recovering the body of Turan, who had lost his head, he decided to infiltrate the Mage’s Tower and even captured Mouser, who was staying in the furnace control room.
“I heard the story. He’s a famous workshop craftsman in Machine City, right?”
square!
With the tip of her leg, she lightly brushed Mouser’s forehead, and in an instant, the skin cracked slightly and bright red blood covered his face.
“You know I don’t want a lot. Let’s finish today’s work properly here.”
“….”
Evelyn’s expression became complicated, but she didn’t hesitate for long.
No matter how moderate Agneta is, she is also a member of the pandemonium.
There was no way he hesitated or hesitated about killing or reviving someone, and there was no way he could easily put those words into his mouth.
Whatever value Turan’s corpse has, it is no more important than saving the living.
“good.”
Evelyn nodded and immediately turned her back.
“I will bring Turan’s body. Until then, I won’t let you do anything to Master Mouser.”
Dig!!
In an instant, she disappeared through the forest.
Lennok casually stood facing her with his arms crossed.
The reason Evelyn was able to leave the others without hesitation was probably because she believed that Lennok would protect her place.
Silently, Lennok took out a cigarette from his bosom and lit it, then looked around with a sad expression.
I don’t really like accepting Agneta’s deal, but it’s also true that there’s no other option in this situation.
It is not possible to kill a normal Mouser just to take the dead white lion’s corpse.
I couldn’t even grasp the opponent’s power properly, but I couldn’t ignore the hostage and go into battle.
Even Lennok and Evelyn were extremely drained of magic power, so continuous battles were unreasonable.
In the end, all of this was the karma of Zionis, who betrayed the Mage Tower and opened his hand to the pandemonium.
‘A manipulative sorcerer… … .’
Lennok’s eyes sank deeply as he turned his head slightly to see the cobwebs spread all around him.
Lennok also has a knack for using wizards, but dealing with manipulation-type high-level magic is a completely different story.
Because the manipulation series contains a very comprehensive and ambiguous concept among all categories of spells that use magical power, the level and field of specialization vary greatly depending on what and how to manipulate it.
In Lennok’s case, he uses magicians to interfere in both the physical and magical fields at the same time, but it’s not strange at all if there are manipulation-type magicians who mess with completely different ‘concepts’ rather than magic.
for example…It’s not magic, but a sorcerer who manipulates the ‘mind’.
Lennok, lost in thought, spat out the words.
“A poetry marriage spell that was hung over the senate. It was what you did.”
“that’s right.”
“Originally, it wasn’t even a marriage ceremony, was it?”
“yes.”
She nodded obediently and looked blankly at Lennok through the blindfold.
“….”
Sasha shot!!
If that wasn’t enough, he moved the body of the spider forward and began to observe Lennok right in front of his nose.
Unable to hold back, Lennok let out a cough.
“What are you staring at so intently?”
“I was curious about why Myeong was interested in you.”
“…what?”
“That old lady is a person who doesn’t have any taste at all, but she strangely likes you. I want to be friends with him too.”
“….”
“If you tell me the message the captain left for you, you too will tell me the reason.”
“ha….”
Lennox sighed silently.
It’s surprising that the head of the Pandemonium left a message for Lennok, so he thought of telling Lennok about it now?
Rumors that magicians specializing in manipulation were generally known for their taste, but she was so unique that it could not be anything but a bizarre personality.
“good. Tell me it’s a message.”
“Speak?”
“….”
As Lennok fell silent, Agneta raised her hand and pushed up her eyepatch.
The corners of her eyes were full of scars, as if they had been hacked here and there. The moment she opened her eyes, Agneta’s expression changed drastically.
