Genius Magician Who Eats Medicine Chapter 767
Third Thesis (1)
Buaang!!
Leaving the messy studio, Lennok immediately got into the car and headed to the coordinates taken by Baritz.
I rode my bike all the way here, but if I had to visit the Baritz office building, it would be less conspicuous to use a vehicle owned by the company.
Since they weren’t meeting each other for good, there was no need to draw attention unnecessarily.
“The magic flow reproduction module that I was trying to obtain from Baritz had a strong emphasis on the circulation of magic.”
said Lennok, behind the wheel.
“If the headmaster tried to find it a long time ago, no matter how much I think about it, there is a possibility that it will overlap with the results of the paper I am about to present….”
Apart from the fact that the leader himself hinted at the failure, it is even more dangerous if it is an achievement that has already been made public.
It is tiring to imagine that he published a thesis without confirming this and is suspected of having brought about the church’s achievements.
[Maybe they really built a life support system?]
Darby asked, sitting quietly in the passenger seat with her seatbelt on.
[It might be because you literally failed.]
“Maybe. but….”
As Darby speculates, there is also a possibility that the religious leader really ordered the module to make a life support device.
Considering that the leader seemed in poor condition when he visited Balkan, preparations might have been necessary to preserve even a little of his body in this world.
However, if so, why did they have to order module production from Baritz?
Considering the leader’s transcendent ability and insight, is there any reason to ask a company in a megalopolis for module production?
Perhaps the answer lies within that very question.
Lennok stopped worrying for a moment and quickly checked the coordinates Darby took.
“It’s not the 10th division area. Is it outside the 20th division area?”
[To be precise, it’s a public parking lot outside of District 22.]
Darby immediately replied, showing a map showing the exact location.
[It’s a bit far from District 10, where the Baritz headquarters district is located. I think you’re thinking of calling it a place where there are no people?]
“….”
He said that he would explain things related to the papacy, but called Lennok to a quiet area far from the headquarters.
When Lennok’s hand on the steering wheel faltered, Darby asked, as if recognizing the idea.
[Shall we hack Baritz company’s communication network one more time?]
“…no. It shouldn’t be necessary.”
Lennok, who was worried, answered and drove forward again.
“If I had intended to kill him and silence him, I wouldn’t have bothered to send another message and leave a record.”
Even if Baritz used coercive means, there would be no problem for Lennok, but it was not pleasant to be involved in a fuss like this as Evan.
This is all the more so if you have a thesis presentation in mind as you do now.
If possible, it would be better to tie a knot with the Baritz leadership and deal with it within today.
Thinking so, Lennok drove into a public parking building outside District 22.
A building that looks very run down from the outside and uses its entirety of several floors only as space for parking vehicles.
[The coordinates are stamped in the 6BT compartment on the 4th floor.]
Borrow an automatic driving algorithm to park the vehicle in the designated compartment and turn off the engine.
In the middle of the quiet parking lot, Lennok cast his gaze out the car window.
A number of dusty cars are parked there, but there is no sense of presence.
Lenok is one of the guests using this huge public parking lot. Is this possible in District 22, where the floating population is not small?
rattle!!
“…hmm?”
At that moment, the entire compartment in which Lennok’s car was parked sank downwards and began to descend rapidly.
Koo Goo Goo!!
The scenery of the lobby where vehicles move as if the entire floor were used as an elevator.
Darby immediately grasped the structure and told Lennok.
[This is the vibration of the moving conveyor belt. These are usually used for prefabricated structures… … .]
“You mean the entire parking lot is a detachable prefabricated structure?”
The structure is systematic and sophisticated enough to move the entire car by removing only the parking space.
Perhaps all the facilities managed by the company are designed to be operable.
The principle of the prefabricated mobile building itself is not that unusual, but the surprising fact is that it was designed in the 22nd district, which boasts a considerable land price.
They probably had to pay an astronomical cost just to make a passage underground down here.
I have heard that dinosaur companies in the Balkans have enormous technology and capital and use that technology generously, but
in reality, the scale of the idea and the range of money that can be endured are beyond imagination.
While waiting for the vibration to stop, the lobby space, which had moved underground this time, began to rise upward.
Woooo!!
At the end of an elevator-like climb, the space opened up and the surrounding landscape was revealed.
“….”
In the middle of a dark hallway where it is difficult to find any light.
As Lennok blinked in the darkness that settled all around him, the rear door of the car slammed open.
A smiling young man wearing a suit holding a mobile phone in one hand.
The young man met Lennok’s eyes, bowed his head, and immediately put the phone to his ear.
“Yes, I found it. I will see you right now.”
[…] … .]
“Okay. I will personally notify the other secretariats.”
The young man who finished the phone call smiled at Lennok and said.
“Professor Bylon. Are you feeling better?”
“….”
The young man bowed his head at Lennok, who looked at him in silence.
“This is Dante Claxton from the Strategic Planning Office. The Vice President is waiting for you. Let’s go right away.”
Head of the 2nd team of the Strategic Planning Office of Baritz Company. Dante Clarkston.
Is this the person who sent the message to Lennok through the company network and showed the leader’s video?
Considering that he arbitrarily judged and dealt with Lennok’s intrusion despite knowing about it, he must have been a person with considerable authority within the company.
But instead of standing up straight after him, Lennok pointed to the back seat.
Prescott slumped in the back of the vehicle, stunned.
“Is it okay if I don’t have to pay the interest?”
“Oh that….”
Dante clapped his hands lightly as he said that, and giants in suits appeared and pulled Prescott out of the back seat.
“The vice president wants to see the two of you together, so I’m thinking of guiding you.”
“….”
“You may be quite offended by this incident, but I ask for your understanding.”
You should know that Lennok is the one who led this incident, but there is no point in him.
module advisory. Conflict between customization and inside the studio. Are you thinking of covering up all those incidents neatly?
Lennok looked at Dante and then moved on.
The form of a huge cavity with a hard and solid shape that cannot be found in any curves.
In the darkness so thick that it was impossible to see even an inch ahead, only the fluorescent light that blinded the eyes was shining in all directions.
woo woo woo… … !!
Huge water tanks placed all over the common area and all sorts of objects that are preserved floating in them.
It is full of artifacts and relics, as well as bizarre collectibles such as remains of what appear to be human corpses.
Was this the scenery I saw when I was trying to receive the Demonic Eye as a gift from Oliviera Lone Maze’s lab?
The moment Lennok recalled that memory and followed Dante to the end of the joint.
thud!!
Unbelievably deep and wide cliffs appeared in the cavity.
[Shhh!!]
At the bottom of the cliff, a huge lizard with two heads looked up and flicked its tongue.
At the edge of the cliff the lizard looks up at, dozens of people are sitting on their knees in a row.
Covering her eyes and ears, covering her mouth and tying her wrists, she was trembling but unable to say anything.
And at the end of the procession, a man stood with his back to Lennok.
“Vice President Ikabon.”
Dante bowed politely at the man standing on the edge of the cliff.
“Professor Bylon has come to visit.”
“….”
The man called Icarbon did not answer.
Slowly loosening his shoulders, he just lifted the object he was holding in his right hand.
The moment Lennok realized that it was an artifact that artificially generated shockwaves.
ICarbon activated the artifact as it was and sent a shock wave to the back of the kneeling person.
“…!!!!”
The person who couldn’t even scream fell down the cliff and was swallowed by one of the lizard’s two heads.
gulp!
[Shhh!!]
A lizard screaming ferociously even after receiving and eating its food, as if it did not like it.
“Durospian, a demon beast that lives outside of Kundara.”
Icarbon, who pushed the man to death without hesitation, spoke.
“An animal that lives a long time but is not as good as a long-lived species, has intelligence but is not as good as a human being, and has one interesting characteristic.”
“….”
“One of its two heads excretes swallowed food without digesting it, and it randomly switches heads each time it eats.”
keying!!
The man called Icarbon activated the artifact again, sending out another shockwave.
The waiting lizard slithers up and swallows the human, but it is not long before it comes out unharmed, covered in slime from under its tail.
Surprisingly, the lizards no longer seemed to have an appetite for the living humans they had excreted.
Hurrying up from his seat and seeing the man running down the cliff, Icarbon turned his head.
He looked at Lennok’s face and asked.
“Don’t you think it’s pretty merciful to give a half chance to survive?”
“….”
On the outside, he looks quite young, and his energy is extraordinary, as if he has trained his magical powers.
However, the most striking feature of his face is his sharp and ferocious impression, as if it will explode at any moment.
Even though they don’t look angry, their eyes are so fierce that you feel like a threat just by looking at them.
Icarbon dropped the people tied to the edge of the cliff one after another, leaving Lennok unresponsive.
Of the dozens of people, only a little less than half survived. In terms of probability, I must say I was a little unlucky.
Only then did Icarbon speak.
“Looks like the durospian is full. Normally, he would keep changing his head somehow to get more food.”
“….”
“Sometimes the process can only be seen after the results are out.”
cold voice. Even Lennok, who was listening to it, is so cold that it gets stuck in his head right away.
Ikabon threw away the shockwave generator and walked towards Lennok.
“People are the same. Only after you know that you committed an arbitrary act in the secretary’s office will you be able to see why you did it.”
It is sharp and sharp, as if trying to find even the slightest sense of incongruity or awkwardness in that face.
Is this the heir to inherit the Baritz company and the man who is in the position of vice chairman?
While Lennok met his gaze and was lost in thought, ICarbon looked at Lennok and said.
“I am not afraid to come alone. Or are you just being reckless? Either way, it’s quite different from the rumors.”
“Do you see that?”
“Or is it because you are still under the protection of Antares?”
“….”
Lennok fell silent when the unexpected name came out.
Are you aware of the fact that Evan’s security was entrusted to the Antares mercenary after the announcement of the anti-gravity engine?
To put it bluntly, it was close to easing the concerns around them by borrowing the name of Antares, but the fact that Icarbon knew about it meant a lot.
Lennok, who thought for a moment before choosing his words, nodded his head obediently.
“I was entrusted with security the other day. You know Antares.”
“Among the prophets, they are the worst kind. Originally, the future is not seen that way.”
Icarbon replied without hesitation.
“It is not the visible, but the power that exists to focus on the invisible future. You’d better stay away from the lunatic who is preoccupied with seeing the desired ending.”
“….”
Not only does Antares have the ability to foresee, but the power is explained in relatively detailed detail.
No, it goes beyond that level and is a natural tone that seems to point out the nature of wisdom.
As if he had personally handled that power and grasped its limits and tricks a long time ago –
Lennok, who finally realized the identity of his opponent and the essence of the Baritz company, asked back.
“The Baritz owner’s family was born with the ability of wisdom. Did you grow and manage the company through him?”
“growth? It’s not a purpose, it’s more of a byproduct. The value gained through foreknowledge is not limited to that.”
Icarbon looked at Lennok with an expressionless gaze.
“It made sense a long time ago. Or not being able to keep the value even in the distant future. That’s just the extent of what a foresight can confirm without going crazy.”
“Without going crazy….”
“That’s why a true seer should focus on confirming and refining the invisible.”
The power that exists to grope for the invisible, not the visible.
Is it because the future itself, which can be seen through foreknowledge, is possible only within the cognition of the person with foresight?
If so, I think I can understand why ICarbon says that the invisible part of Wisdom is more important.
And why did he sit the secretarial staff in this cavity and kill them without the slightest hesitation?
Icabon said, pointing to the survivors at the base of the cliff.
“The secretarial staff who led this incident began to see the future from the moment they got involved with you, and from that moment on, they all lost their value.”
“….”
“Even if I hadn’t dealt with it, I would have surely met an unwanted death at some point.”
Are you saying that the secretarial staff had already lost all of their value by the time they started being foreknowledge by ICarbon?
Throwing them into the jaws of the beast without hesitation must have been based on a standard based on value judgment rather than words of incompetence or betrayal.
Icarbon didn’t seem to like Antares much, but their interest in the unpredictable seemed quite similar.
“I have nothing to say about the internal security and disciplinary procedures of the Baritz company.”
Lennok replied calmly.
“If Prescott Byner and the Secretariat were to take responsibility for this, that would be enough.”
“….”
“The reason I came here is because I heard that the module requested from Baritz has already been ordered by someone and there is a prototype.”
“If you had checked the video, you would have known? The papacy is not a conversation partner.”
Icabon asked.
“They only came to this city for their own purposes. Normal dealings with savages who follow the logic of the open sea are impossible.”
“That sounds interesting.”
“I don’t want to be friends with them, nor do I want to see a future where they’ve reached the end of their fanaticism. Because it’s obvious that I will go crazy first.”
Icarbon looked at Lennok and spoke again.
“However, there have been times when we have attempted exchanges to recognize the nature and similarity of each other’s abilities and to explore them.”
“…You mean similarity?”
“The similarity between the revelations of the Church and our intelligence.”
Icabon answered.
“It was part of an attempt to explore the link that exists between foreknowledge and revelation and to uncover its source.”
“….”
“So, as you said, the allegations of collaborating with the church are completely wrong. At the end of that exchange, what was left in our hands was-”
Clap!!
As ICarbon operated the remote control in his hand, a huge water tank covered with black cloth was pulled out in front of the two of them.
Without hesitation, Ikabon quickly peeled off the cloth and said.
“Because it was nothing more than an object that had nothing to do with the source of foreknowledge or revelation.”
“….”
Lennok stared at the object floating in the tank without saying a word.
A naked corpse floating on the other side of the tank with the veil removed and a pure white helmet on the corpse’s head.
A sharp appearance that emits a noble and transparent light as if it were made for a paladin.
It was because I realized that this was the equipment that the principal was trying to build using modules.
“However, if the fact that he had any contact with the Church leaked out, he would surely be annoyed at the Central Council.”
said Icarbon, who stood behind Lennok with his arms crossed.
“So, in exchange for handing over this item, the deal is to keep quiet about this.”
“….”
The reason why he summoned Lennok, explained the secrets of Baritsa and his relationship with the Church, and handed over the sample.
Did you intend to keep this incident quiet so that the central council would not get caught in the book unnecessarily?
It’s probably not just because Baritz is afraid of the city government or worried about things like tax audits.
Is it not because he is hiding from the Central Council a far more sensitive and dangerous secret than what he just told Lennok?
“…All right. Let’s do that.”
However, Lennok knew this and decided to accept ICarbon’s offer.
The moment I saw the shape of this helmet, what the religious leader was trying to make using the module.
Because it might help Lennok’s third thesis in some way.
“Thanks to you, I think I can successfully present my thesis.”
