Exploration Team (2)
It’s nothing strange.
Considering the great self-made play he showed at the auction house, he must have had excellent acting skills from the beginning.
asked Brooke, who was glaring at Lennok with cold, bloody eyes.
“Did you play with us when everyone knew?”
There was no other emotion in the voice that flowed out.
“I don’t want to hear that from people who threw rocks at a car that was driving fine.”
“Whoa…”
Brooke let out a deep sigh and shook her head.
“He tried his best to kill me painlessly, but to kick him with his own foot…. No, do you make rather foolish choices because you have good brains? Either way, there would be no reason to die knowing the truth.”
“…”
“What happened? It would be deceptive to act in a different way now. I will kill you and go see Yakseon. That’s all you have to do.”
“okay. How good would it be if it came out like that from the beginning?”
Looking at Brooke, who finally showed her true colors, Lennok laughed.
“There’s no way you could have done this on your own, so you’d be right to think that Irina Pesfield is also very cold-blooded, contrary to rumors.”
“……..”
Lennok nodded, looking at Brooke who was silent.
“What do you understand? It’s no surprise that the famous explorer is a cold-blooded man who doesn’t flinch at the sacrifice of others.”
As he said that, he snapped his fingers.
At that moment, something whitish hanging from the tip of her finger moved at high speed and passed behind Brooke in an instant.
Awesome!!
A clear noise of flesh and muscle splitting into pieces.
Brooke turned her head in disbelief.
The young man called Miles had his neck neatly cut and was falling off.
“The unit commander…?”
A face that doesn’t understand why he died until the moment he dies.
Lennok looked at him and muttered with a smile on his face.
“There’s no way I’ll ever feel this unnecessarily uncomfortable.”
“Aaaaaaa!!”
“Ma Miles!!”
“No no!!”
“Miles uhh!!”
The reaction of the expedition team after confirming the death of their colleague was intense.
Some howling and calling out Miles’ name, others glaring at Lennok with faces smeared with rage.
One of them, apparently familiar with Miles, ran towards his corpse with tears in her eyes, but Brooke shouted in horror.
“Jensen!! You can’t get close!!”
“late.”
Awesome!!
Jensen’s upper body is cut in the same way as he was running.
His blood spattered and convulsed face, unlike Miles’s, was marked with a terrible agony.
“Turn it off…!!”
The complexion of the members of the expedition changed drastically when they saw Jensen wriggling and dying without screaming properly.
It was only then that he realized that an invisible trap had been set near the spot where Miles died.
“If you caught two, it’s more than expected.”
While Lennok thought so, he waved his gloved hand and cut dozens of magic threads that were connected all at once.
Faaaaang!!
At that moment, the magical powers that were firmly fixed around Miles were released all at once, creating a whirlwind of sharp anticipation that stirred all directions.
It was inevitable that other members of the exploration team standing around were swept away.
“Kyaaaagh!”
“Far pal…!”
“be careful!! It is an invisible blade!!”
Others, noticing the anomaly, quickly moved around the two dead bodies, but suffered minor abrasions in the process.
“Everyone, stay alert!!”
Brooke gritted her teeth and let out a loud scream.
“He is a manipulation-type wizard. All this time, I bought time to prepare my magic while matching the conversation!! Everyone, take care of your surroundings thoroughly and be vigilant!”
“……..!!”
Still, those who do not have enough combat experience start to concentrate and calm their agitation quickly with Brook’s strong reading.
Judging by the resolute intent to kill in their gaze, they must also be masters of battle who have killed quite a few people.
And Brook’s discernment, which recognized Lennok as a manipulative magician after finding out that he had developed magicians for a short time, was also considerable.
But that wasn’t the only move Lennok had prepared.
“If you noticed that, you should have pulled your back right now.”
Awesome!!
At the same time as I spread my five fingers, the huge rock that landed next to the car wriggles.
At the same time, it collapses with hundreds of cutting edges as if it had been cut long ago.
Lennok moved his finger before the others, stunned, could react.
Kwaaaaang!!
Hundreds of stones shot forward as if they were exploding covered the dark night streets in an instant.
Brooke’s expression, which confirmed the magician attached to each and every stone, was terribly collapsing unlike before.
He muttered while holding his outstretched hand lightly.
[Explode.]
The words that flowed out were changed into the form of a chant and turned into words.
The mana contained in the stones that split and extended countlessly reacted as it was, causing a huge chain reaction.
explode
Quagwagwagwa!!!
Waves of bright red heat covered the wide lanes and created a sea of fire.
“Aaaaaaa!!”
The flames created by magic continued to burn in all directions, burning all living things.
Who could have predicted the explosion that took over the entire space and exploded?
The appearance of the exploration team that appeared after the explosion was over was a mess.
“Ugh….!!”
“You have to kill me right now. Right Now!!”
There are not many additional dead members, but none are unscathed.
Everyone now drew their weapons and started aiming at Lennok, not with simple killing intent, but with earnest desire.
It is not a problem that will end at the level of just shutting one’s mouth.
They began to realize that if they couldn’t kill Lennok right here, they could rather die.
Brooke, who had walked out of the flames with the most normal complexion, also raised her magic power by drawing a blue-colored sword from the air.
“Don’t miss the timing.”
said Brooke, who was glaring at Lennok with a blazing gaze.
“We’re going step by step, just like when we’re hunting monsters.”
“Isn’t it like hunting humans?”
Lennok’s ridicule no longer worked on them.
There was no room left in the sight of those preparing for battle as they glared at Lennok with completely subdued eyes.
Several members of the expedition were completely out of their lane, widening their distance, glaring at Lennok, catching their breath.
A quiet silence prevailed.
The moment when the members who have raised their magic power to the fullest rush at the same time with one breath.
“Dabi.”
[Okay.]
As the streetlights around the road went dark at the same time, the street fell into darkness.
“……!!”
“How do you control the power in this area…!!”
Frightened people looked around to find Lennok, but even a moment of distraction was a luxury.
Awesome!!
The shadows that arose from a blind spot where the members’ keen senses could not reach pierced the vital points too easily.
At this moment when all sides are immersed in darkness, the boundaries of the shadows become blurred and the power of the spell is displayed to its fullest.
The casting time of the spell has already been earned enough due to the previous confrontation.
From the beginning, it was a battle with no chance for the members of the exploration team.
“Ah!!”
“Deputy Commander..!!”
A situation in which the mental power was devastated by the operation of a series of unexpected spells.
None of the members could withstand Lennok’s spell, which came out of the way three times in a row.
Among the members who collapsed in a splatter of blood, not even three were breathing properly.
“I can’t believe this… I was going to do this…”
Brooke’s expression, which belatedly confirmed the situation around her, collapsed terribly.
The decision was made before he could even wield the weapon in his hand.
I couldn’t even fight properly, but it must have been hard to endure the helplessness that everything was already over.
But if he didn’t know for sure that this was the magician’s way of fighting, he’d be wrong in planning from the start.
No, even with the archangel’s compassion as bait, he should have admitted failure at the point where the plan went awry.
In a sense of urgency, he took action without properly grasping the opponent, rushed to take time, and conversely gave Lennok enough time.
From the moment Lennok made the board, it was as if the superiority of the battle had already been determined.
Clap!
Lennok pulled a revolver from his waistband and walked slowly while loading the bullets.
Brooke, who fell on her knees, looked up at her with a blank look.
asked Lennok, who thrust the cold gun into Brooke’s forehead.
“It would have been impossible to fool the auction house with just this amount of people. Who are the collaborators? How much power does the exploration team have left?”
“Stupid bastard. Do you think I will tell you that?”
“…Well, I can guess. The old man who had a fight on the third floor. Perhaps that old lady is the one who cooperated with your childish self-made play.”
The answer was simple if you think about who finally won the archangel’s compassion.
In the end, all this commotion could be settled without the consent of the old man who won the auction.
From the beginning, the exploration team had made a plan to find the talisman of the medicine in a line that could be fully handled and carefully planned.
“If we dig up the old man’s identity, we might find out where Irina Pesfield is.”
“This bastard…!!”
Sparks flew from Brooke’s eyes, who seemed to have lost all motivation.
If it was Lennok’s judgment that reached the correct answer in an instant, the sense of crisis that the leader of the expedition team could really be dangerous began to move his body.
“If I lay my hand on Irina…!”
The blade was swung at close range before the words could even be finished.
The heavy heavy sword was caught in Brook’s grasp in an instant, then came up on a low trajectory and was fired toward Lennok’s heart.
Awesome!!
As if he was aiming only for this moment, his swordplay was natural and swift.
The reflected light from the blade shot like flowing water accurately hit Lennok’s pupils.
It stopped right in front of Lennok’s nose like a lie.
“…….”
Brooke’s blade stopped in the air without even reaching the shield that was always wrapped around her body.
Dozens of magical threads tightly wrapped around the sad blade.
After awakening to the magnetic realm, Lennok’s spatial awareness, which greatly increased his understanding of space, was reflected in his ability to manipulate magicians.
Even though he hadn’t put much effort into developing manipulation-type magic, the hundreds of threads moving between his fingers were digging through the gaps in battle without hesitation.
From the start, there was no way Brooke would turn the tables.
It was only to confirm the ability of Lennok’s new magician.
Fragments of the blade that split and fell with the flick of a finger.
Lennok raised his revolver again, watching the flame slowly fade from Brooke’s collapsed eyes.
No more words were needed.
Taang!
As soon as he pulled the trigger, Brook collapsed in a splatter of blood.
The bullets enchanted with flame-related magic work and start to burn his corpse.
Roaring!!
After disposing of the bodies of the other expedition members who had already died in the same way, Lennok immediately began searching for their tracks.
As always, there is a high possibility that objects that maintain their original form even with such a damaged corpse are not ordinary objects.
Even more so, they are a relic exploration team that has built up a reputation by going around ancient ruins.
It wasn’t strange at all even if there were additional useful relics or artifacts.
It wasn’t long before Lennok noticed an unknown, faint glow on Brooke’s corpse, and his eyes lit up.
“…….hmm?”
I have only seen it once with my naked eyes, but I cannot easily forget its brilliant brilliance.
The relic that showed off its appearance intact in front of everyone at the moment when the heat of the Teina auction house reached its peak.
The same iridescent jewel that had been attached to the Archangel’s Compassion was in Lennok’s hand.
