Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine
Episode 719 Burglary (12)
Hui Oh Oh!!
While Tatiana was sent to the launch pad first, Lennok took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Right after the battle, he has been smoking a chain cigarette, but the situation has become exhausted.
Considering what I had to say from now on, there was no need to show off in front of Peysha.
Looking in the direction where Tatiana disappeared, Lennok tapped on his phone, which was still dead.
“Are you awake? You should be able to understand basic conversations by now.”
A level 8 superpower.
If it is based on the body and transcends the hierarchy, its durability and resilience are already at a level beyond the limits of the species.
Unless you end your life completely, you’ll do whatever it takes to keep you alive and recover incredibly quickly.
Even if his whole body was broken and fell into a state of suspended animation, there is no doubt that he would be able to communicate as long as he was conscious.
“I think you’ll be listening and I’ll tell you.”
Lennok sat down in front of Faisha, who lowered her head, and met her gaze.
said Lennok, lost in thought as he smoked from his cigarette.
“As far as I know, Kaise Bajur’s son is already dead.”
“….”
Without waiting for an answer, Lennok said, slowly retracing his memory.
“Kaise’s innate retrograde magic. I did not live long because I inherited that nature in an ambiguous way.”
Quite a bit of time had passed, but Lennok remembered the events he had experienced in his visions as vividly as if they were yesterday.
Memories of the past that happened in Closed Area 25. The superhumans of decades ago who lived vividly in it.
Until the end of Kaise, who understood his situation and chose to disappear.
The pocket watch he left behind and the image of the magnetic realm are still vivid enough to be grasped by hand.
Because he remembers the words Kaise left at the end without missing a single word.
Even though I couldn’t sympathize with the legacy he left behind, I thought it was worth respecting that much.
The fact that the head of Dead Rise was Kaise’s son was something that Lennok could not easily understand.
“Kaise also found out quite late that he had a granddaughter. If you had other children, there’s no way I wouldn’t have mentioned that fact.”
“….”
“Answer me. Is the leader of your legion really his son?”
If there were other children besides the son who died early, the project would not have collapsed so easily with Kaise’s death.
Not to mention, Jenny couldn’t have been working as a broker in District 49 with Jordan’s help.
If the head of Dead Rise is really Kaise’s son, then he is Jenny’s biological father.
Lennok felt the need to keep Paisha alive, even if it wasn’t for the deal with Oliveira, in order to hear an explanation about this situation, where the causal relationship seemed to be disconnected like tape.
Paisha’s mouth twisted slightly as she listened to Lennok’s question without speaking.
“…You were involved too.”
The vocal chords were all burnt and cracked, and the voice hoarse.
Even though it would have been a tremendous pain to speak, Peysha let out a low laugh, not caring about it.
“At the time, not many people understood his circumstances so deeply….”
“….”
“okay…. I thought maybe it was. Because he always thinks of countermeasures and tells us to prepare for the next one as well.”
Peisha muttered bitterly.
“Even if you kept it a secret from us and prepared an alternative like you…I can accept it.”
“well. I don’t feel like you guys accepted Kaise’s idea.”
Lennok replied sullenly.
“The Kaise I remember was not an idiot who dabbled in human sacrifice. But what are you guys doing now?”
“….”
“After all, once you’ve solved the immediate problem using the power you deserve to be subordinate to the Order, what’s left after that?”
“okay?
Peysha lifted her head with difficulty.
Her eyes, burnt in a mess, were shining with an inconceivable cynicism.
“You knew that all too well, and you held hands with Oliviera again?”
“….”
“You are no different. What makes you different from us is that you have his belongings?”
Peysha spoke with difficulty as if chewing.
“When a project fails and we have no alternatives left…Why didn’t you help us back then?”
An unconcealable hatred burned in her eyes as she desperately uttered each word.
“I don’t need it anymore. because nothing can be undone But even if he forsook all the other values he held dear… … I will protect one.”
“You say you’re protecting only one?”
“Bajur-sama knew that fact better than anyone else. That one is enough.”
After Peisha spat out that, she raised her head as if she had no more regrets.
“It’s okay, put that dog-like restraint again. Are you thinking of taking me to Oliviera?”
“….”
“Hehehe, that’s fine. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the face of the woman I’m going to rip to death… … .”
Peysha’s eyes closed and not even breathing as if she had no intention of saying anything more.
Did he know that things weren’t going to end well when he was captured and that he was involved with Oliviera?
Considering her reaction, it was clear that he and Oliviera had had a bad relationship for a long time.
In my heart, I wanted to ask more about what happened at that time, but there was a high possibility that only Lennok’s ignorance would be revealed if he overdoed it here.
For now, it would be better to leave room for Peisha to be mistaken.
“good. do that.”
Lennok answered that, and took out the Pure Land God’s statement again.
Peisha’s eyes, looking at the rosary, shone strongly for a moment, but before she could say anything, she was restrained and fixed in space.
Lennok, who moved the tightly tied Peisha to the magician, found Tatiana standing in front of the launch pad and called her to stand.
“Tatiana.”
“Are you half done?”
“To some extent.”
Lennok looked away as he said that.
“Where are the other bosses?”
Tatiana shook her head with a troubled expression.
“Merilda fell behind and Angel came all the way here with me, but I can’t see her at all.”
Shortly after Lennok started fighting Peisha, Merylda subdued Stockton, who was unable to fight, and retreated with Killian.
Conversely, Tatiana and Angel were using their hands to enter the launch pad in reverse and stop the satellite launch.
Thanks to the two presidents risking their lives to play a part in the operation, the work turned out to be easier than expected.
I didn’t expect Peisha’s opponent, so it should be said that it was helpful as he made a decisive contribution to the operation.
Lennok, who quickly turned his magic sensor, nodded.
“Merilda is out of her senses and Angel passed out under a water pipe.”
“Under the water pipes? Why did you dig all the way there?”
“To explain that, you need to first understand the hypothesis that people with innate abilities for attributes are instinctively obsessed with their environment-”
Tatiana cut off Lennok’s lengthy words with a single knife.
“You’re staying in a place where there’s probably moisture, right?”
“…yes. Life doesn’t seem to be in danger, so let’s prioritize collecting the necessary items from the launch pad.”
Lennok, who smoked a cigarette, nodded as he shoved an ampoule of painkillers into his shoulder.
“There are a few things I didn’t pack while fighting you. You will need it for future work.”
coo goo!!
In the distance, broken in half, roaring launch pads and factory fragments.
The wreckage is mixed and melted, and it is almost irreversibly damaged.
The satellite that was nestled there must have suffered fatal damage as well. It will never work properly again.
Tatiana looking at the point of explosion with a complicated expression.
Lennok, who was walking with a cart, suddenly asked.
“Are you regretting it?”
“…no at all.”
Tatiana quietly replied to Lennok’s words.
“I had to send it like this. Rather, it was too late.”
“….”
“It should have been done long ago, but I was lacking….”
It is better to borrow the authority of the Phoenix Hall to give it rest than to let it suffer as a material for the engine.
Tatiana had made that clear to Lennok from the beginning, and Lennok accepted.
That is why Tatiana also accepted the breakup even in a situation where they could not agree.
said Lennok, raising his gaze.
“…I’m sorry. All I could do was this.”
“No, even this kind of ending would have been impossible if you hadn’t inherited the authority of the Mage Tower.”
There was not even a hint of hesitation in Tatiana’s words.
Looking away, her shoulders trembled slightly.
“thank you. really.”
“….”
Lennok disagrees with the saying that everything is good if it remains as a good memory at the end.
In this world, there are many things where the process is more important than the result, and even good memories are unsatisfactory results.
In the end, it is up to one’s own mind to set and judge the standard.
Even so, is Tatiana relieved by the fact that she has brought peace to an irreversible distorted death?
Mourning someone’s death is not difficult. I can understand and empathize with that feeling.
But can Lennok feel the same relief at the end of the ending that came to him?
Lennok smiled bitterly and headed towards the collapsed launch pad facility with Tatiana.
“Will there be any remnants of Dead Rise left?”
“There is no sign of detection.”
The battle between Lennok and Peysha was a fierce battle that toured the entire theme park and changed all directions.
Even if you’re lucky enough to survive, you’re probably not in good shape.
It could be done with certainty by turning the magic sensor and searching the area, but there was more important work left.
click!!
Remnants of a satellite crushed under the launch pad.
In the meantime, slowly extract the satellite engine that still preserves its original shape.
“Try fixing it with a little more force…!! You keep coming out.”
“It’s not easy to control because the mana manipulation is overloaded.”
“If I can’t control it, I will be crushed to death…!!”
Awesome… … !!
Tatiana struggled to pull out an engine the size of a human torso from inside the satellite debris.
Lennok stretched out his magician over Tatiana’s head, who desperately supported the engine, even using physical strength she was not good at.
Cheer up!!
Magic thread is pulled taut over the smooth sphere engine, sharing the weight of the engine.
Only then did Tatiana barely escape and lay down on the floor sweating profusely.
“I have never strengthened my body like this on the battlefield…!!”
“Good job.”
The satellite’s engine is made of strong horsepower built-in material, so it is not easy to interfere with horsepower from the outside.
It is difficult to touch unless you physically extract the engine as it is now.
Of course, it’s not impossible if Lennok decides, but the battle with Faisha consumes a lot of mana, so delicate manipulation is difficult.
That’s why Tatiana, not Lenok, went in and got out with the engine on her back.
Leaving Tatiana kneading her wrist, Lennok immediately reached for his left arm.
“Start right away. We will have to test the performance while the engine is warmed up.”
Returning to the launch pad and extracting the engine was not simply to collect loot.
The ability of the satellite that Dead Rise was trying to launch. Because we know that the true value lies in this engine.
The satellite designed to operate in the atmosphere is broken, but the shape of the engine built with the part is intact.
As much as that, Dead Rise also means that they were paying very close attention to the design of the engine and the power part.
Keying!!
Lennok nodded, channeling horsepower directly under the sleek engine’s fuselage.
“As expected, a significant portion of the anti-gravity engine was borrowed. It doesn’t end there, and there are traces of adjusting the formula hundreds of times.”
“It was probably a preliminary preparation to use the phoenix as power.”
Tatiana also answered while examining the inside of the engine from Lennok’s side.
“Because it would require an enormous heat source to power the satellite. It must be a measure to fully utilize the heat from the inside.”
“Most of them are overlapping statements that overwrite concepts. It seems to be to extend the concept of the tower to the atmosphere.”
Since the phoenix is a powerful heat source, it was not only necessary as an engine part.
It was an idea to create a new branch of the Tower of Magic in the atmosphere, centered on the Tower of Phoenix, the authority receptor of the Tower of Magic.
Through him, the fundamental purpose of extending the concept of the tower to the sky to protect satellites and to open the field of view to look out at the central front.
Dead Rise and the Mage Tower needed each other’s skills and magic, so they joined hands to build a satellite.
“If you analyze the internal structure of the engine, you will be able to figure out how you tried to use the phoenix.”
Tatiana nodded.
“Then, when you build a new mage tower, you will be able to skip the results they created.”
If the concept of the magic tower was to be expanded to the sky instead of being tied to the ground, wouldn’t it be much more useful to omit the result instead of destroying it?
Lennok and Titanana had been aware of that fact from the beginning and even planned to retrieve the engine after the incident was over.
“how will we do it. Would you like to try an experiment here?”
“I’d love to.”
As Lennok said, he patted his left arm.
“It looks like this side is already ready.”
Curling…!!
The spirals of prominence coiled around his forearm follow Lennok’s hand, winding like a snake.
[Confirm the user of the highest level of Inherent Fire-type magic.]
[Constructs a form in response to the will of the summoner.]
Fire!!
On top of his right hand, the spirit of the phoenix, transformed into a small phoenix, lifted his head and flapped his wings.
[Recognition of candidates for official succession process complete.]
[Please specify authority.]
While Tatiana smiled wryly, Lennok grabbed the Phoenix with both hands and placed it on the engine power unit.
The shape of a small room at the top of an engine split in half that could hold something the size of a fist.
The firebird stared blankly at Lennok, then jumped and landed in the room.
It folds its wings like a small bird nesting and puts its body close to the power unit.
The firebird closed its eyes, rubbed its beak, and nodded.
[Considering the output of this receptor, upper-intermediate level of fitness.]
[I recognized it.]
In response, Lennok and Tatiana faced each other in silence.
“…It’s good, right?”
“You’re saying the answer that it’s not bad is a long one.”
[Print settling complete. Implemented the solar system by proxy.]
Bang!!
At that moment, dozens of long flames spewed out in all directions of the engine, raising the body into the air.
Kururureung!!
At the same time as the heavy rotational sound, the internal power of the engine rotates and the engine itself floats in the air.
It itself is similar to the anti-gravity engine Lennok developed, but the engine’s real power lies in what happened next.
[Preparation for the appearance of the simple area. Please be prepared for a shock.]
Koo-gu-gu-gu!!!
Red waves wrapped around the Phoenix Hall engine shook the entire earth in an instant.
A strange feeling of floating, as if defying gravity upside down.
The ground, engulfed in flames, shook all over the ground and slowly began to rise.
In an instant, the land near the launch pad floated like a small island, and Tatiana looked down and said,
“The operation is smoother than I thought. Maybe it’s because it’s preheated, so it should work right away.”
Tatiana muttered curiously, then turned her gaze to Lennok as if recalling.
“If I do well, I can really build a new mage tower in the sky, right?”
“Good.”
Tatiana shook her head at Lennok’s plain reply.
“Don’t speak rudely. This is an unprecedented event. Is there anything you want to do after building the Magic Tower?”
“well….”
Looking at the slowly rising ground, Lennok smiled.
What should I add to the performance that has already been predicted for all processes and results?
The mage tower hasn’t been properly built yet, so even if I talk about it, it’s just a meaningless fantasy.
At least at this point, if you have any vague thoughts-
“Why did the 7th Mage Tower lord use the mental material as power?”
“what?”
said Lennok, not paying attention to Tatiana’s reaction.
“There must have been many relics of the previous tower owners in the main building of the Blaver Mage Tower. Is there a reason why you chose Phoenix Hall among them?”
“….”
“An environment that transcends altitude. Power to survive in the atmosphere. Observation and maintenance power looking down on the ground. If this was the only power source to satisfy difficult conditions and situations… … .”
[Complete construction of the transition zone due to the formation of the sphere.]
In front of the two of them, the shape of a huge phoenix emerged, supporting the ground and raising its head.
Roaring!!
Lennok murmured, realizing that the phoenix’s eyes had a sharp focus that wasn’t there before.
“I think it’s because the magic of the 7 lords of the tower is more unique than the lords of the other towers.”
[The message of the seventh sun is playing.]
At that moment, a long staircase of flames began to unfold in front of the two of them.
