Earth running in the sea (3)
P.O with a dumbfounded expression on Evan’s face.
“Why is my body not moving…?”
Trying to get up somehow in the sand pit, he flounders as if being dragged by something invisible.
Lennok couldn’t bear to face him properly and slightly averted his gaze.
“Isn’t the mimicry not working properly?”
“There’s no way that would happen, then the spell wouldn’t even activate in the first place…wow!!”
It inhales the sand dust it created and spits it out with a chuckle.
It is so pitiful that it is hard to believe that he was an Ascendant who had been furiously driving Lennok through his refined mutation ability until just now.
But Pio didn’t seem to notice the slightest hint that ugliness was a risk Lennok always had to take.
‘In a way, it’s natural, but… … You can’t miss it The penalty hanging on Lennok’s body is not a simple restriction, but it is different from all the ability to move the body
.
Unlike Lennok, who was accustomed to taking the penalty, from Pio’s point of view, it was as if he was suddenly trapped in a trashy body.
Of course, since Evan’s body information is imaginary data created randomly by Lennok, he may not have shared all of Lennok’s penalties.
That alone must have been very interesting for him to be struggling so hard and not even properly diagnosing his own condition.
“Let’s just do one more damn thing!!”
P.O, who changed into the shape of a huge rhinoceros after releasing the imitation of Evan’s face, charged at him.
“I will.”
Did he decide that the information gathered through battle was not enough?
Lennok also accepted Pio’s first attack without saying anything.
Kwaaaaang!!!
The rush of the demon resembling a rhinoceros and fragments of the sand barrier entwine to spread a magical dance in all directions.
The sand on the shore rose like a wave and burst into space.
Pabababababababak… … !!
Dozens of thorns and thorns made of sand rotate and pierce in all directions, and the gently scattered sand particles turn into sharp blades.
The figure of P.O, who dug in between them without hesitation, turned into all sorts of beasts, sharpened firearms, and metal forms and attacked them.
“Goes…!!”
In the midst of a quick exchange of seconds, Pio raised his mana with all his might and flipped over.
The body, which had been half transformed into a tank-like shape, rapidly contracted and finally compressed into a human shape.
The appearance of a mature man of some age, completely different from Fiona Gio’s face.
If, at this point, he took out a human form rather than another weapon or beast, it would almost certainly be the mutant form that Pio is most confident in.
Perhaps it is the shape of the most precious person or the most memorable acquaintance for the shifter.
oh oh oh… … !!
Between the fists of Pio, who had transformed into a mature man, the extremely compressed mana rotated, and it was stamped down as a long flash.
Lennok’s sand wave that received the shock that overturned the entire field.
In the moment of breathing in, dozens of slashes and shocks intersected and exploded in all directions in a disorderly manner.
In the aftermath, Pio, who had once again reached Lennok’s nose, rotated his elbow, creating a large image.
Lenok, who confirmed the identity of Pio’s microcosm right in front of his eyes, immediately moved.
One step to the side, avoiding the first attack with an unpredictable power of rotation.
Step back for a brief gap to catch the storm bursting through your hands.
And, as if the fierce battle that had been going on so far had no meaning, a step that penetrated the gap between Pio from the front.
The moment Lennok’s hand, which had passed between Pio’s forearms like a ghost, lightly pushed the pit of the stomach,
the body bounced back and landed upside down on the sandy beach floor as if flying.
coo!!!
“Kahak…!!”
Before Pio even stood up, Lennok stepped on him and cast gravity magic.
Pio’s deathbed groans mixed with coughing.
At the same time, the sand that was scattered from the sky above the beach fell all at once to the ground, drawing a gentle rain of sand.
pass s s!!
“Three steps.”
On the sandy beach, which became quiet in an instant, Lennok lifted his foot from Pio’s back and said with a smile.
“It’s very difficult without moving for sure.”
“….”
“The mimicry of the natural enemy of the transformation technique. Will this be enough?”
Instead of responding, Pio looked up at Lennok with a dumbfounded expression.
Rapper and Gap-seon also kept their mouths shut and were silent.
“Whoa damn it…. It’s the first time I’ve been stamped like this even though I borrowed the appearance of the death penalty.”
Pio let out a deep sigh and stood up from his seat.
“good. I’m not sure why the spell doesn’t work properly, but I guess I’ll have to be content with this.”
At the same time, Pio’s figure flipped over on the spot and changed into Evan’s.
It’s not exactly the same, but it seems that they succeeded in copying the appearance and atmosphere.
Lennok’s eyes were still not satisfied, but Lappard and Gap-seon were looking at Pio with a rather curious expression, as if they felt differently.
[Did you say it was a transformation technique? It’s very surprising that you can imitate it to this extent.]
“I see. Somehow, that oddly empty atmosphere is similar… … . It was a much better ability than I thought.”
“That’s true, but I can’t honestly say it was successful.”
Pio, who was mumbling with Evan’s face, swayed his limbs as if embarrassed.
“I don’t know if it’s because the mutation doesn’t work properly or because the body’s synchronization is low, but my physical ability is completely garbage.”
“….”
“Evan’s strength and stamina can’t be at this level, so it’s just that the natural enemy’s mimicry didn’t work at all… … It was the first time I knew that the failure of the mutation technique had such a terrible side effect.”
“….”
“Ugh, it’s frustrating to even breathe…. It seems like something keeps getting tired, damn it… … I can’t stand it for long. I will only use it when I become bait instead of the real Evan.”
Pio, without hesitation, exposes Lennok’s inferior physical ability without even being aware of it.
As if he couldn’t hold out for long, he hurriedly released the mutation and returned to his original form, grumbling.
As if he hadn’t even guessed that this strength and stamina belonged to Lenok, he was busy trying to figure out the side effects of the transformation technique with all sorts of adjectives.
Is it a matter of mood that somehow Lennok’s heart hurts more every time he hears Pio swearing at him saying it’s a side effect of the transformation technique?
However, instead of telling Pio about it, Lennok quietly raised his gaze upward.
“…then let’s start right away I don’t have much time.”
Lennok’s muttered voice sounded like it was wet somewhere.
* * *
Gooooh… … .
“….I never imagined something like this would be possible.”
“I can imagine how Liza feels.”
Lappard murmured, looking blankly out the window.
“If I could see a view like this, I would be willing to swim below sea level.”
A small submersible created by cutting down a log and evading the law by four people. Outside, the scenery of the seabed, not the island, is reflected.
Lappard and Pio make a shape out of the airlifted logs and cover it with Lennok’s magic to turn it into a moving submersible.
If the Sanctuary Proclamation embodied in Lappard’s primitive faith is overlaid on it, those who receive protection will be able to breathe even in an enclosed space.
Pio murmured, looking at the school of fish swimming in the depths of the sea and the cephalopods fluttering and disappearing with a curious expression.
“High-ranking mages are truly unique, starting with the way they think. I wonder if this is why I’m looking for a wizard like that… … .”
“There is no magician anywhere who would do something like this without borrowing the power of magic engineering.”
Lennok looked away quietly as the two peered out of the submersible.
It was clear that the various creatures living under the sea were unfamiliar, but what Lennok saw was a little different.
An updraft of magical power that rises violently from the depths of the sea of understanding.
The appearance of constantly shooting natural magic above the sea and drawing a huge waterspout below the surface of the sea.
The seawater rising above the surface of the water draws a magnificent water mist and makes all directions so hazy that it is impossible to see an inch ahead.
An isolated environment where even the sense of magic is not properly affected by the considerable water fog and the updraft of magic that rises from all over the vast sea of understanding.
It cannot be said that these environmental factors were not the reason why the Dominion’s navy did not notice the existence of the Far East branch.
The existence of an overwhelming updraft that pushes the magical power of the entire sea above the ground simply by existing there.
It wasn’t that Lennok wasn’t unsure of what the hell existed under the sea to make this happen, but now was not the time to ponder that.
“After reaching the bottom of the island, we abandon the submersible and dig underground. Get ready, because it won’t be long.”
It is not for nothing that I chose the form of a submersible over other methods.
As Gap-seon said, if the Far East branch is a moving island, there should be facilities for basic living on the island.
Among them, the existence of sewage facilities to treat domestic wastewater is inevitable.
No matter how powerful a high-ranking superman is, the existence of facilities to lead a basic life is indispensable.
And in the case of such a sewer must be the lower part of the island. It must also consist of an underground facility that is hard to see.
Lennok had intended to use the submersible to locate the island’s underground sewers and travel back to the Far East branch.
Leaning on one side of the submersible, Lennok spoke to Gabsun, who was silently looking out the window.
“If it is difficult to maneuver in the water, it would be nice if you could tell me in advance. It would be better to borrow the power of Lappard or Pio to move you.”
[You are definitely different from that man.]
“…what?”
Despite Lennok’s question, Gap-seon did not answer.
It was only that the bright red one-eyed pattern on the amulet was pointed at Lennok.
[Clean momentum and attitude, excellent barrier techniques and logical ideas… … . It doesn’t fit at all with the anomalous manipulator we saw in Kaiushu.]
“….”
[The only thing they have in common is that they have accumulated incredible achievements at a young age… … . I don’t know how the world is going to work.]
“I’m sure I’m not the only young wizard in this wide world.”
Lennok replied calmly, but rather turned his gaze toward the ship.
“If you came from the West Continent, you would know more about that fact than I do.”
[Do you really think so?]
Surprisingly, instead of being silent, Gap-seon asked Lennok in reverse.
[Even if there are wizards with achievements like yours, you probably don’t know that wizards with achievements like yours are rare.]
“….”
[It’s more like a dream to fulfill both directions while conducting research and combat. Most of the innumerable geniuses find it difficult to achieve even one properly.]
It feels like the gaze of the invisible Gapsun shines sharply through the amulet mask.
[Solid fundamentals and flexible ideas, sharp senses and deceptive judgment. It’s impossible for a talented magician to polish all of this. At least at your age.] It
was only then that Lennok realized what Gap-seon was thinking of him and felt a chill run down his spine.
Despite the fact that no evidence, no circumstances, no character and no talent match.
Gap-seon was overlapping Victor and Evan just for the reason that he had accumulated this level of skill.
It must be because Gap-seon can use his talisman to check whether the opponent has gone through the 45-year cycle or not.
In my head, I thought Victor and Evan were different people, but I couldn’t understand it, so I was quietly looking at Lennok like this.
Saying in a low voice, “Does this level of achievement seem possible at the same age as you?”
“….”
It is not wrong to say that he is a famous genie in the western continent.
If it wasn’t for his memory as Victor, Lennok would have thought Gab-seon’s words just a buzzword and passed it off.
But knowing that, I had to give him a convincing answer to his question now.
If Gap-seon didn’t consider Lennok as an ally and watcher, I couldn’t predict how this talisman would turn out at the end of this operation.
And the answer Lennok chose was very different from what Gap-seon expected.
“Looks like you’re overlapping me with someone.”
[…] … .]
Without hesitation, Dreyfus stabbed and dug into the core.
Rather, as if he was tired of the comparison itself, he slowly stood up.
“It’s not uncommon. I guess. But let’s not get so caught up in sentiment that we don’t do what we need to do.”
Right now, Lennok is leading the watchers to approach the church branch, but the core of this operation is the armored line.
If Gap-seon hadn’t requested it directly, Lennok wouldn’t have joined this operation.
At least he shouldn’t have let go of his responsibilities because of useless thoughts.
Gap-seon nodded his head with a slightly different momentum, probably thinking about it again.
[Yes, that’s right… … . I decided to stop clinging to irresponsible agony and achievements.]
“….”
Lennok didn’t know what happened until Gap-seon accepted Lapis’ proposal and became a watcher.
However, it must be true that his travels while wandering the entire western continent are closely related to the inside story.
Lennok thought so and immediately began making elaborate hand signs with both hands.
“Rappard. Prepare to release the sanctuary.”
“…already? Or rather, have you already found the location of the sewer?”
“It goes up. Be prepared for a rise in air pressure.”
At that moment, the head of the submersible rose upside down from the sea and began to rise rapidly.
Whoops… … .!!
A sudden change in air pressure that made other observers stagger, accustomed to the strong pressure of the ocean bottom.
If it was an ordinary human being, it would not be strange if his heart stopped on the spot.
If it weren’t for Lennok’s protection magic and Lapard’s sanctuary declaration spell, the submersible wouldn’t have survived until now.
“now!”
“I will reap the seeds…!”
With Lappard’s chant, the sanctuary that was protecting the submersible disappears, and Gaho is destroyed.
At the same time, a piece of log that made up the submersible was split in the middle of the sea on both sides, and water began to fill the inside in an instant.
The scenery reflected through the cracked logs is the bottom of a magnificent island floating on the sea.
The appearance of immeasurable piles of soil floating on the territorial sea of the sea of understanding and floating little by little
is in line with the countless floating islands located in the floating island colony.
In the midst of such a mound of dirt, a long, cylindrical figure glowed faintly in white.
The dark red liquid pouring out of the gap mixes with the sea, spreading a hazy water mist.
Lappard and P.O took a deep breath at the same time, and then, without hesitation, immediately threw themselves through the mist.
iron!!
Lennok and Dreyfus, too, protected themselves with shields and amulets, and went straight up the huge cylindrical sewer.
It requires a lot of physical strength to rise against the flowing current, but the water flow coming out of the sewer is not very strong.
It didn’t take long to reach the pathway where one could step against the stream of waste.
“Pooh!! Holding my breath longer than I thought-”
“Wow, what a smell…!!”
Rappard and Pio, who wrinkled their noses and stood up, vomited and slapped each other.
“There are strangely no traces on this side. move right away.”
Finally, at Lennok’s words that rose from the waterway, Pio sneakily confirmed his whereabouts and grumbled.
“Damn it, it’s just me and Lappard getting covered in some weird liquid…. The two of them didn’t get a speck of dust on them.”
As Pio said, the evidence that went back to the sewer was firmly attached to Lappard and his body.
A dark red liquid of unknown origin sticks to the body without even coming off.
Only Gapsun and Lennok, who had surrounded themselves with shields and amulets, maintained their normal appearance.
Lennok glanced at the two and passed them by, replying.
“It is blood, not waste. It must be proof that he killed hundreds of people like rats.”
“Eh? Is this blood?”
Pio said while fiddling with the dark red liquid with a bewildered expression.
It was a shocking explanation, but no one here was frightened or startled by the inexperience of the blood.
Lennok muttered as he passed Pio and walked ahead.
“I heard that the blood used as a catalyst for the technique often deteriorates. Considering the behavior of the church, I think it might be the result.”
It’s probably just processing the blood shed through human sacrifice with a high probability.
If the Far East branch has reached the sea of understanding and is immersed in human sacrifice, what would be the reason?
If it was to confirm the secrets of the Church, Lennok’s arrival here today would not have been in vain.
“Let’s move quickly. Under the surface, because of the updraft, the mana detection doesn’t work well. We need to get to the surface as quickly as possible.”
“….”
“Why is the answer….”
Lennok turned his gaze to the unresponsive watchers, then fell silent at the sight unfolding behind him.
There seemed to be dozens of priests surrounding the three, aiming sharp spears at them.
“I was waiting.”
The figure of Gyogun looking down at the sewer with eyes full of cold blood.
“I was wondering, but there were really some guys crawling into the sewer.”
“Slowly climb onto the railing and put your hands on your head.”
“…Evan?”
Pio obediently raised both hands above his head and asked Lennok.
“how will we do it?”
There was no answer.
Awesome!!
The cutting sound that passed between the priests along with the sound of the chilling wind cut the bodies of the priests in half.
“I don’t know why, but if they were caught, there would be no need to look back.”
Lennok’s eyes shone coldly.
“Change of plan. From now on, we will go to speed battle.”
