◈ Episode 204 Water and City (3)
A secret branch of the Black Dawn Society located in Baltanung.
“Stir quickly!”
“I have to meet the payment deadline today!”
“What are they doing there!”
Hot smoke filled the interior with shouts echoing here and there.
Managers with gas masks on their faces shouted and pushed the workers.
Faces that are skeletal because they haven’t slept well for several days.
Moreover as I kept smelling the strong smell of medicine without a gas mask I was almost like a living corpse.
dump.
A skinny worker unable to withstand the harsh environment fell to the floor.
“madam. what?”
A manager wearing a gas mask approached him and stabbed him with a stick in his hand.
“hey. wake up. “Get up.”
However the fallen worker did not move at all.
I lowered my head and went closer to check and my eyes were completely opened.
He was completely addicted to the medicine that was spreading in the air.
“Tsk. “I can’t use this guy anymore.”
“what’s the matter?”
“One guy went.”
“also? haha!”
A colleague who came over to prepare for an unexpected situation smiled as if it was a familiar occurrence.
“Don’t laugh. “Can’t you see anything serious right now?”
“Anyway there are so many people like that that they end up on the streets in Baltanung right? “I guess we can just catch a few people and bring them back.”
“It won’t work unless we put in a new one right away. “It’s already difficult to meet the payment deadline.”
“It can’t be helped. Because the branch in Lederbelk was completely blown away. “That means we have no choice but to extract the quantity.”

“Mr. Ha. “It’s going to spin really.”
It was easy to hire workers by giving them a few pennies but the problem was that the work was done too slowly.
In fact this side was busy making the quota as much as it had flown from the Lederbelk branch.
Because of this managers felt like their blood was drying up every time.
“I already heard that a high-ranking person from headquarters is coming this time. “You have to work hard to avoid getting caught by that person.”
“who?”
“Why is that there?”
“ah. “Is it the First Order or is it him?”
The two managers wearing gas masks were not members of the Black Dawn Society but were mercenaries who worked as subcontractors for money.
Since they are doing something illegal they don’t go anywhere and spread the word that something like this is happening but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a sense of comradeship with the Black Dawn.
“uh. “I heard you’re in charge of the drug business we’re running right now?”
“You’re crazy. “Where on earth are you going to distribute this huge drug?”
“This isn’t even just a regular drug.”
“What else is there?”
“I don’t know the details either. “I just heard something but we make this right?”
“Why is this?”
“Actually there was talk that this was a failure. “It’s like a leftover transaction.”
“this? This drug that drug addicts go away just by smelling it? “What were you originally trying to make?”
“I don’t know. However there are rumors that warlocks are involved. And they said that the person in charge of overseeing them was coming here.”
“This is crazy. “So that means he’s the same type as the manager here.”
The man trembled as if he heard something he couldn’t hear.
Anyone who was related to a warlock should never have gotten involved.
Could it be that you accidentally attract the attention of someone like that? It was possible that he would be subject to human experiments right away.
“I still don’t know. “There is only talk of it coming but if you look at the actual atmosphere inside it doesn’t seem that urgent.”
“Is this just a rumor?”
“That’s right. Let us mind our own business. “Would you like to go for a beer after work?”
“Can you drink beer in this smelly city?”
“I don’t know. “You just drink it.”
The mercenary who was flirting like that glanced at the floor.
“Was there a waterhole like this here before?”
“Didn’t someone spill it while drinking?”
“I don’t think so. look. It’s still coming up even now. “Did the groundwater burst?”
Is it because it is a very old place that has not been renovated?
A rusted water pipe might have burst.
The mercenaries wondered whether they should report this to the top or not.
At that time the stream of water that was flowing through a crack in the ground became rough and rose so high that it reached the wooden ceiling.
“Uh huh?”

The mercenaries looked at that scene blankly.
The rising stream of water began to shake and hit the surrounding area.
The steel frame unable to withstand the pressure of the huge water column bent and the boxes containing the medicine collapsed.
“What! what’s the matter!”
“I don’t know!”
pop! pop! pop!
The floor of the factory exploded and water columns rose from several places.
The living water column stirred up and down the inside of the factory causing chaos.
The administrators were frozen and unable to do anything about the strange phenomenon that occurred so suddenly.
“What kind of fuss is this!”
At that time a loud voice rang out from inside.
Soon a middle-aged man with messy hair appeared.
The mercenaries all froze at that sight.
“Department manager!”
“What is this again?”
Instead of answering his subordinates who called him the manager opened his eyes wide with resentment.
I felt a commotion inside so I came and found that water columns were gushing out from all directions making a mess of the factory.
Moreover as if it was not ordinary water the water column was moving around like a snake.
At that moment a column of water flew towards the manager.
The manager looked at it clicked his tongue and pulled his right arm back.
“With such an attack!”
A fist was thrown out.
It is a column of water that easily bends steel.
It would have been suicidal for a naked person to face it with his fist but the manager was unconcerned.
Pow!
Rather it was the water column that could not overcome the shock and disappeared.
Wow. Scattered water poured down like rain inside the factory.
The mercenaries who saw the scene trembled with fear.
“I broke the water column with my bare fist.”
“Are you also a ‘knight slayer’?”
Warlock Moloch.
He was on the empire’s wanted list and was a warlock who became stronger through body modification.
His nickname is Knight Slayer.
This nickname was earned by tearing to death a knight known to have surpassed human physical capabilities with his bare hands.
“Holy shit. I was already sleeping soundly but suddenly what happened? …huh?”
Moloch who was grumbling like that narrowed his eyes at the person who blocked his path.
“What are you?”
He was a man with an unusual appearance.
The body was covered in a pitch black shadow and a gas mask shaped like a crow’s beak was covered over the face.
It seemed clear that even that was made with magic.
“Oh my. “Are you the one who led this attack?”
At first glance a person who appeared to be related to this attack proudly appeared in front of him.
It was a bit unfair for Ludger.
‘I didn’t do this.’
Casey Selmore. I never thought they would pour cold water on me like this before I left.
Of course thanks to creating a mess it became easier for them to infiltrate.
Ludger who wanted a clean process could not shake off the feeling of being interrupted.
‘There’s already a flood everywhere so it’s not good to move here secretly.’
That’s why he appeared in front of a man who seemed to be the conductor of this place.
Moloch was quite offended by that.
“How dare you show yourself proudly in front of Moloch? “I’ll count that courage as something to be desired.”
Molak said this and rolled his shoulders a few times to relax his body.
His body seemed to be 1.5 times bigger than before.
no. It wasn’t an illusion.
In fact Moloch’s body was getting bigger and bigger than before.
The clothes I was wearing were unable to withstand the expanding muscles and tore.
Moloch looked down at the intruder his sinews bulging.
“You’re the one who disturbed my sweet sleep so I won’t kill you easily. “I’ll play with you like a doll.”
“Is it Moloch the Knightslayer?”
Ludgar looked at Moloch like that and muttered his name.
It was a name I had heard of.
Did you say that the warlock killed a knight with his bare body?
When I heard the rumors I wondered what the hell was going on but when I saw such a huge body I immediately understood.
“You modified your body with strengthening drugs and human procedures.”
“Hoo. “It looks like he has knowledge he picked up somewhere.”
Moloch’s body was a product of the madness unique to warlocks.
Otherwise humans would not be able to grow to a height of over 3 meters.
‘I think it would have been a good match against Pantos once.’
Unfortunately now I had to deal with this guy myself.
“I don’t know how you knew about this place and came here but the moment you meet me think that your luck has run out today.”
Moloch said and crouched down.
It looked like a ball of muscle.
That moment when you wonder what on earth you are trying to do by bending over.
Paang───!
The huge body was launched like a cannonball.
Ludger who sensed something was coming immediately threw his body to the side.
Just when I thought a huge force of wind had passed by a loud noise rang out from behind.
Quang!
Ludger looked back and clicked his tongue as he saw the unfolding tragedy.
‘It’s enormous.’
There was a large hole in the steel vapor pressure tank that had been standing on one side.
Since it was made to withstand high-pressure steam it wouldn’t budge even when subjected to a significant impact.
It was an incredibly powerful force and speed that was unbelievable for his size.
‘I didn’t even wear magic power on my body. ‘Are you saying you destroyed that thing purely with physical strength?’
Indeed the nickname “Knight Slayer” was not earned for nothing.
A body strengthened to that level would have been able to tear apart even a decent knight with its bare hands.
“ha ha ha! “You managed to avoid that!”
Molok burst out from the rubble and burst into laughter as he looked at Ludgar.
I felt quite happy that at least someone worth playing with had appeared in this boring car.
Ludger took out a black revolver from his belt and aimed it at Moloch.
“gun? That’s funny. “Even though I look like this I’m still a wizard?”
Moloch immediately activated [Silence of Fire].
Despite his magic giving him absolute superiority over firearms Ludger pulled the trigger.
‘So the magic itself can be activated?’
Bang bang!
The muzzle glowed and compressed magical power was shot towards Molok.
However the magic bullet failed to pierce Moloch’s skin and bounced off in vain.
“Hehe. what. This isn’t an ordinary gun is it? But what can I do because I feel bad? “You wouldn’t be able to put even a scratch on my muscles with such shallow means.”
It’s impossible to pierce a magical bullet that can even pierce a steel plate.
In terms of physical strength alone among the insect brothers he fought at that time he seemed to be almost on the same level as Veron whose body was covered in a carapace.
‘This is why I don’t want to deal with warlocks.’
General wizards specialize in fighting using magic so their strategy is consistent and they are easy to deal with.
Even if I was caught off guard just a little bit I was prone to panic.
But warlocks are different.
As expected of those who have touched a taboo there is absolutely no way for them to fight with common sense.
Grumbling—!
Ludgar shot fire magic at Moloch.
A huge fire broke out like a wave threatening to engulf Moloch.
“Do you think it will end up like this!”
Moloch spreads his hands wide and applauds! and hit it.
Paang!
The shock wave that erupted from the opposing palms pushed back the waves of flame.
Moloch looked at this and smiled in remorse.
Then I felt a strange sensation on my neck.
“what?”
Before he knew it Ludger was climbing on his shoulder and strangling him with a white wire.
“Was the fire magic a bait to block vision?”
Geek.
The wire made contact with his skin making a strange sound.
Even though it was not an ordinary wire there was not a single scratch on Moloch’s body.
“Did you think you could cut my skin with just something like this?”
Moloch reached out and Ludgar let go of his shoulder and stepped back.
At the same time he fired a magic bullet from his revolver and aimed at Moloch’s eyes.
No matter how good his physical ability was he could not strengthen his eyes so Moloch covered his face with his hands.
“You’re such a rat. And he’s good at fighting.”
The opponent used magic but his fighting style specialized in exploiting loopholes.
Not a typical wizard.
If I were to be specific it’s closer to the War Mage’s ability to roam the battlefield.
‘Are you a military guy? But if he were a military wizard he wouldn’t have come here alone.’
At first I thought he was someone I could play with but I changed my mind.
I was thinking of checking who it was.
Moloch who was trying to move his body like that narrowed his eyes at the pressure he felt from his body.
“What else?”
Upon closer inspection I saw that translucent wires were entangling his entire body like a spider web.
The wire was connected to all kinds of heavy objects inside the factory.
“That’s interesting.”
Molok exposed his teeth and strengthened his body.
Pop! His muscles began to swell and push against the wire.
Hehehehe.
Steel structures connected to wires began to shake and be pulled one by one.
“You can only earn a few seconds with something like this.”
“okay. But it will only take a few seconds.”
Ludgar muttered like that and pointed his finger at Moloch.
What are you trying to do? magic? But regular magic wouldn’t be able to inflict even a single wound on this body.
Moloch made a decision. That’s just bravado.
The moment I thought that Ludger lowered his finger.
“What?”
What did you just do?
The moment he was thinking that blood rushed down Moloch’s throat.
“Cough! “What?”
The strength in my body was slowly draining away.
Ludger’s attack was not visible.
Even though it was invisible this strong body was attacked even though it would have blocked all attacks.
“How…how…”
Moloch who had modified his own body was able to see what was happening inside his body.
“It pierced my heart…”
heart.
Strong and strong bones and muscles are the core human organs that no one can touch protected by thick skin.
There was a big hole there.
Moloch forced his muscles to control the blood flow rate.
Thanks to this he didn’t die right away but since there was a hole in his heart which is the core of life there was no way to avoid death.
“this guy. “What on earth did you do?”
“I simply calculated the coordinates.”
“Coordinates…?”
“If you can’t attack from the outside just attack from the inside.”
That’s why I deliberately diverted Moloch’s attention elsewhere and let his guard down.
It was fixed so that he could not move from his seat for even a few seconds.
“If you were an ordinary wizard or knight this method would not be usable due to the magic power or aura surrounding your body. However it is easier for people like you who ignorantly strengthen their bodies with drugs and experiments. “I hope you let your guard down.”
Molok opened his eyes wide.
I tried to say something but no words came out as blood poured out of my open mouth.
‘My way.’
His eyes slowly closed and soon the large figure fell forward.
For a warlock with the reputation of being a knight slayer it was a very vain end.
“Okay then.”
Now that the person in charge here has been eliminated let’s organize other things as well.
It was a moment when I was about to take a step with that thought in mind.
“Oh my. “What kind of mess is this?”
When I heard the voice of a third person suddenly appear I stopped and turned my head towards him.
There was a man there.
What he wears on his face are research goggles.
It was a bald middle-aged man wearing a pure white robe.
Looking at his appearance he was a typical scientist.
“I visited in person to check how much work was done but there was an uninvited guest.”
It’s definitely the first time I’ve seen it.
I felt like I knew who he was.
‘Victor Dreadful.’
A member of the First Order of the Black Dawn and a mad scientist who conducted all kinds of experiments.
Ludger silently aimed his revolver at Victor.
