Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Episode 553
Monsters of the Past (5)
Seeing Felix quickly closing the distance on the other side of the hallway, Kaise reached out his hand behind him.
A cart containing dozens of glass bottles he had just been pulling.
Kaise took out a vial of red blood and threw it to the ground without hesitation.
Chaeng!!
With the sound of a glass bottle breaking, blood spreads across the hallway floor, and that moment when Felix stepped on the blood and ran.
With the sound of one of Felix’s legs twisting backwards, his huge body fell to one side.
Kwaaaaang!!
“…!!”
Although the giant’s torso deflected and crashed into the hallway wall, Felix did not groan.
As if he had anticipated this situation to some extent, he just rolled up and stood up, his hard eyes shining.
The leg itself is not broken or has lost its function.
The moment he stepped on the bloody water, Felix’s legs forcibly stepped back as if time were going backwards, destroying his balance.
And Felix had already guessed what the cause was.
“Kaise Bajour. You said you deal with time yourself.”
Boooooong!!
The moment the cross section of the hammer struck the air, a powerful shockwave exploded towards Kaise.
Kaise also immediately took out another serum and threw it into the air.
Chaeng!!
The shape of a shock wave that returns to nothing and scatters as soon as the serum is thrown into the air.
Right after that, Felix landed in front of Kaise, grabbed the hammer with both hands and slammed it down.
“Where…!!”
Intervening between the two, Gileon thrusts one side of his ironclad wings and receives a slash from the hammer.
Woooooo!!!
The image of Gileon standing in the way of the hammer and Kaise silently staring at Felix from behind ironclad wings.
Felix said while pushing the hammer more violently towards Kaise.
“If Ban directly confirmed your ability, which was called out of specification even then, it would be unmistakable. I think I now know how to use that power.”
The bird-headed giant with a strong grip on the hammer glanced at the cart behind Kaise.
“The serum you just used. It must have been made by extracting your blood beforehand, right?”
“Hoo.”
“I’ve dealt with powerful people with unique magical powers or constitutions a few times. Most of them used their abilities through their own blood or bodily fluids. At the time, I couldn’t understand why I had to go that far… … .”
oh oh… … !!
Felix said, facing the hot air blowing down the broken hallway.
“It was difficult to control the ability, so it was extracted in advance and used like consumables. The magical value contained in that blood must be indescribable.”
“….”
A serum made from Kaise’s blood. Lennok, too, realized the meaning and glanced back at Oliviera.
An unknown serum she used right after stabbing herself in the heart. It would be strange if you couldn’t relate.
The magical power of reverse heaven contained in Kaise’s serum. Oliviera had used that power to forcibly cover up a fatal wound close to instant death.
‘It seems that it was used to neutralize the injuries sustained just before… … .’
It’s not that I don’t want to check how far its scope and efficacy are and how much it works for people other than Kaise.
[The master network packet structure is being completely changed. It seems like they’re replacing the whole line itself.]
Darby’s urgent voice came through the earphones in Lennok’s ears.
[Progress itself was not taken away, but the firewall is being increased in real time, so the time required… … !!]
“….”
At this point, is there anyone who can notice Davi’s hacking and respond?
Kaise’s eyes crossed behind Lennok’s and Gileon’s ironclad wings between the collapsing ground.
“As expected, it was your power that shook the network of fixtures.”
Kaise shook his head with a slightly pale expression.
“I never thought that the independent network system I created would be hacked to this extent in such a short period of time. Thanks to you, I came to the scene after a long time.”
Compared to before, his complexion was noticeably worse. Breathing that seemed to be somewhere fast and mana shaking uneasy.
I don’t know what method he used, but Kaise also did a lot to keep control of the fixing device.
Considering the number of those serums, they probably drew a large amount of blood in a short period of time.
But despite this, the reason why Kaise did not avoid Lennok’s pursuit and faced Lennok right here.
It was because Kaise also wanted to see with his own eyes whether his guess was correct.
“I checked the reaction, that’s enough. This is it for now.”
Kaise grabbed the handle of the cart with a slightly trembling hand and knocked it over.
At that moment, dozens of serums in the cart were shattered at once, scattering a gourd of blood.
It pierced the ironclad wings and covered Felix’s whole body as he wielded the hammer.
I’m going to have a good time… … !!
Felix’s gigantic body was helplessly pushed backwards with a noise as if the space itself was twisting.
However, the magical power of arrival emanating from beyond the cross section of the hammer resisted Kaise’s magical power and prevented the body from retrogressing.
“Whoa…!!”
The bird-headed giant let out a low spirit, and at the same time as blood formed on the neck of Felix, Felix’s body disappeared on the spot.
pat!!
In an instant, Felix’s shoulder, which had gone behind Kaise’s back, rotated diagonally.
The moment the heavy hammer shattered Kaise’s legs and tried to grab his neck with the other hand.
Gileon removed the damaged ironclad wing and kicked it straight into Felix’s face.
Wood Deuk!!
For a very short time, the shape of the ironclad wings collapsed and hindered the rotation of Felix’s shoulder muscles.
Kaise put the last serum in his hand into his throat.
Pooh!!
“See you at the next fork.”
After Kaise’s muttered words with a smile, all the blood spilled on the floor stood up like a wave, covering his body and spinning.
Right after that, the shape of a hammer that just barely brushed my back.
Whoops!
The force of his strength splattered blood in all directions, but Kaise was no longer there.
“…!!!”
Only then did Felix frown, realizing that it was for this moment that Kaise brought out the cart containing the serum from the beginning.
Gileon, who was looking at the broken wing, bit his lip and looked behind him.
The entire ground collapsed, and Lennok and Oliviera also fell down the deep sinkhole.
“Oliviera, cooperate.”
Gileon spoke quickly to Oliviera, who was shaking off the applicator with a much lighter expression.
“I do not have time. When mercenaries enter the power plant, it becomes more difficult to chase them down.”
[There is no need to do that.]
Lennok, who was similarly wary of her movements, averted his gaze at Oliviera’s calm reply.
Instead of answering Gileon’s words, she crossed her arms and smiled faintly.
[It’s all about time and place. My head worked well, but I had no luck.] A
strange attitude that was in contrast to the bloody spirit he had shown towards Lennok just before.
It was immediately clear what Oliviera’s changed attitude meant.
The moment Felix was about to slip between them without hesitation.
The bright yellow concentrate that exploded at the end of the hallway exploded and pushed Felix’s body out.
Kwaaaang!!
At the same time, the figure of a huge stone statue breaking through the corridors and the figure of a super-vibrating spear gliding between them.
McQueen, who has been completely wrecked, screams and escapes from the other side, and the bloody chaser who runs fiercely after him.
Clinging to the ends of two spears, the one flying up was a woman familiar to Lennok and Felix.
“Hey…!!”
“Mr. Magat!!”
Illya, who sat down to avoid the stone statue Arjumartha’s fist, looked around with a puzzled expression.
“I know this is underground, but how…?”
“We need to find Kaise.”
Felix brushed off his tingling hands and asked with a look of enduring pain.
“I do not have time. If we don’t get his recruits soon… … !!”
“I missed it while fighting Parden McQueen.”
Ilya bit his lip and shook his head.
“sorry. At most, Mr. Ban made a gap himself… … .”
Lennok glanced around with an expressionless face and spoke quickly.
“Now that Ilya has been found, I will issue the following instructions on behalf of Innocence.”
“I guess we can go inside the power room and disperse to find Kaise.”
“It won’t be easy, but…I will do my best.”
An apostate monk walking from behind Arzumarta’s back Gileon with one ironclad wing spread Oliviera looking down this way with her arms folded.
The moment when Ilya, who was looking at the superhumans all exuding unusual magical powers, lowered his stance by grabbing a spear and Felix raising his hammer.
Lennok shook his head.
“No, we’ll put off securing Kaise’s recruits for now. Get out of here.”
“…what?”
“Ban-sama, what is that…?”
“Look at their reaction. Does that look like those of us who are about to make a life-and-death decision?”
Lennok rubbed his forehead tiredly as he looked at Oliviera.
“It is running out of time. There must be a powerful variable that can overturn the current composition at once.”
“A variable?”
“Probably, they aren’t the only monsters from the past that participated in Kaise’s operation-”
Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
A cold chill suddenly descended from the heads of the bewildered Felix and Illya and began to wrap the surroundings tightly.
At the same time, the screams of gloomy ghosts are heard from all directions.
[Ah ah ah ah ah…!!!]
[Die, die, die…!!!!]
Dull fog hangs between the clear midday sky, and unknown shapes of vengeful spirits fly around everywhere.
The sudden change of environment near the power plant made both Felix and Illya realize why Lennok was in such a hurry.
Following Kaise’s orders, the superhuman powers that had been patrolling outside the power plant began to return to their headquarters.
Going into the power plant in search of Kaise as it is now is tantamount to committing suicide.
As Lennok said, we must escape immediately and find another way.
Lennok took two old pencil sacks from his arms and threw them at Felix and Illya.
“It’s enough to confirm that Kaise did a lot to stop our plan. Step back and replenish the consumed power… … .”
Taking out the Archangel’s Compassion from his bosom, Lennok raised his magic while holding it with both hands.
“Looking for Claude Azlan around the outskirts of the closed area.”
Enakpil’s five fingers, an emergency escape artifact that forces the user to evacuate by forcibly shifting space.
However, Felix shook his head as soon as he accepted this.
“Using something like this in front of an 8th level wizard is suicidal. We will all be ground alive in space friction.”
What does it mean to use an artifact like this in front of Oliviera, a level 8 wizard, and Gileon, who has the ability to separate space?
There is no need to stop the three people trying to escape from this place with Enakpil’s five fingers.
Even if you intervene in the phenomenon that occurs during the space transfer process and change the direction, the bodies of the three will evaporate in the tremendous heat of friction.
But Lennok shook his head even after hearing that.
“I can stop interference from the other side. I’ll give you a signal, so get ready.”
“what…?”
Lennok snapped his fingers right away without waiting for an answer.
[Whoa… … !!]
At the same time, Darby, who was groaning in his arms, puffed up both cheeks and spewed out dazzling magic power from the body of the spirit.
A huge explosion erupted from the underground power room where the fixture was located.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
“…!!!”
It overloads a part of the internal network of the firewall that Darby had previously drilled through, paralyzing the function of the junction.
At the same time, it draws all the power from the facilities in the power room and puts it into the device, causing the device to run out of power.
The complexion of the superhumans of the past, who had been watching Lenok, changed dramatically at the shape of the flames bursting out from under the ground.
As the fixing device was broken, Felix and Ilya inserted Enakpil’s five fingers into his heart through the bursting waves of space collapse.
“Where…!!”
Gileon quickly activated his ability and tried to stop the three of them from escaping, but
Lennok, as if he had waited, took out an old wooden rosary from his bosom and blew magic into it.
Aaaaaaa!!
A relic that was received as a gift from lighthouse keeper Lapis.
It is an artifact used by Cheongyeon and has the ability to isolate space and stop it.
The moment when the power of Gileon and the power of the Pure Land conflict were offset, the three jumped through the space and leaped out of the power plant.
Faaaa!!
“Cool!!”
Rolling on the ground covered in dust, Lennok coughed.
“Has it failed to solve the space-time gap phenomenon…?”
The moment he realized that Kaise was overdoing it to block Davi’s hacking.
Rather than forcibly seizing control of the fixture, Lennok would rather destroy it altogether and destroy it.
If you’re lucky, breaking the device will solve the gap itself, and even if it’s not that, you’ll be able to save a little time the moment you run away.
However, it seemed that it was difficult to solve the phenomenon that occurred in the closed area with this.
Illya and Felix jumped up and looked around.
Their gazes almost simultaneously turned toward the power plant’s sky. In an instant, their complexions turned pale.
“…!!!!!”
The two people, who said nothing, exchanged glances with each other and picked up their equipment.
Felix lifted Lennok by the nape of his neck with one hand, threw it over his shoulder, and sprinted.
Doo doo doo!!!
Hanging over Felix’s shoulders like laundry, Lennok’s body swayed madly, turning pale in an instant.
“Ooh Felix…!! slowly…!!”
“You are half right. We had to get away from that power plant as quickly as possible.”
Felix said in a stiff voice and madly distanced himself from the power plant.
“Look at the sky. If it’s even a moment late, we’ve already… … .”
“….”
Hearing those words, Lennok grabbed his stomach and lifted his eyes with difficulty.
Waves of ghosts swaying over the blurry sky of the power plant.
In the meantime, the appearance of a huge ghost ship slowly revealed itself with a faint wave.
oooooooo!!!
A magnificent ship floating in the air floats casually in the sky, as if it were walking through the white fog of ghosts.
Countless commanders on board gasped for breath, rowed, pulled chains, dropped anchor, and prepared to halt.
An overwhelming scale that makes it difficult to easily realize its true nature even when looking at it with both eyes.
Lennok already knew whose power the ghost fleet was.
It is a powerful enemy that none other than Lennok himself faced and settled at the last moment, and the realm of the 8th level lord sorcerer.
“The Madrid Onion is back.”
* * *
Hey hey… … !!
The sky has turned dull with a gloomy noise.
Silently, Gileon frowned at the sight of the ghost ship floating in the sky above the power plant.
It is the power of the realm that I have witnessed many times in this civil war, but I can not adapt to the gloomy momentum unique to the commanding arts.
8th level warlord. The judge of the spirit world who uses thousands and hundreds of ghosts like limbs.
Compared to other magicians, the sphere used by Madchiri Onion was not enough to be called overwhelming in terms of its appearance.
Hey hey!!
The cry of the ghosts flying high in the sky.
Screams soaked in pain with strange tones overlapped in various chords, and soon began to sound like one voice.
[I can’t help but feel sorry for you. I’m already busy with work, but why am I being interrupted by bugs?]
Madrici’s voice, muttering languidly without even getting off the ship, resonated across the sky.
[Where is Kaise? I’ll have to hear for myself when this tedious operation will end.]
The answer came not from the collapsed sinkholes and underground corridors below the power plant, but from a completely different place.
jump!!
“There’s not much time left, so don’t worry, Onion.”
Kaise, who was perched on a transmission tower outside the vast power plant facility, stood up and replied.
It was the complete opposite of the fight against Felix in the underground corridor near the power room just before.
Kaise, who stood up, held dozens of wires tightly packed in her hands.
“Because it took so long to finish backing up the spatio-temporal fixture data. Now, just reconfigure the device and restore the test results, and that’s it.”
“Kaise…!! What have you been doing since then?”
said McQueen with a look of annoyance.
“If I held on a little longer, I could have captured all three of them alive at once. Wasn’t it because of your response that I gave you room even though you knew that!!”
If you hold out until Madrich Onion returns, the situation in this place will be completely overturned.
Kaise knew this, but used a spell to evade the battlefield, giving the opponent time to react.
If they had waited a little longer for Onion to return, they would have been able to settle all the fuss at once.
But even after hearing McQueen’s words, Kaise shrugged with a frown.
“This operation itself could have been useless. You still don’t know what kind of power that mage has.”
“What the hell is that…!!”
“I’ve been thinking about the reason why the wizard is still staying and wasting time.”
Kaise replied with a weak cough.
“As time drags on, this side becomes more advantageous, but if they are holding out, isn’t it because there is a reason?”
“….”
“As expected, they hacked into the entire control system of the fixture that blocked outside intervention. I was aiming for this even while preparing for a collision with Oliviera.”
“…Are you saying that wizard has already mastered the manipulation of cyberspace?”
Kaise, who rubbed his temple with a pale expression, smiled dejectedly and nodded.
“It was already at a level that I couldn’t stop with my own hands, so I had to give up the status quo and focus on backing up the data of the fixture. In the end, if the origin of the hacking had not been found in the wizard himself, the entire Ramahal district might have fallen into a power outage… … .”
“….”
Leaving the speechless McQueen behind, Kaise dropped the wire and jumped off the power tower.
He landed effortlessly on top of a ten-meter-high tower and gestured in the direction Lennok had disappeared with his hands in his pockets.
“A force powerful enough to be compared to that of Oliviera. A unique ability to intervene in power plant facilities. Do you believe this is all a coincidence?”
“….”
[He was an advanced lightning magic user.]
Oliviera, who had been listening to the words with her arms folded, said as she drew the veil back over her face.
[I don’t know if it’s possible, but it wouldn’t be strange if he went beyond the concept of electric shock and mastered the operation of the cyber brain.]
“That’s it.”
Casey nodded.
“The composition seems to have seen through our current situation and sent a person specializing in strategy. It points to only one conclusion.”
A mage with superior intellect and intuition capable of confronting Oliviera’s force head-on, but also helping and intervening in Kaise’s research.
What does it mean that a monster with such talent and capacity is the first opponent even those who have lived for decades?
“That wizard is probably-”
Kaise was about to say, but then fell silent as if speechless.
It’s like a person who is trying to say something and gets into trouble before an important fact.
Turn the topic naturally.
“…He said his name was Ban.”
Despite knowing Lennok’s identity and secret to some extent, Kaise eventually did not share it with his colleagues.
“Track the man down and bring him before me before the research is completed again. can you do it?”
[Is it okay if I kill you and bring you back?]
Gooooh… … !!
A view of the ruined power plant with a chilly wind blowing.
In front of the four superhumans who were locked in silence, Kaise’s eyes shone meaningfully.
“It doesn’t matter. Then that’s what I mean.”
