Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 162

firing.
Taang!!
He swung his arm with all his might and hit the first rider who was trying to smash the door.
I fell off the bike as if I had been hit by an invisible fist.
At the same time the skidded bike instantly bounces backwards impeding the approach of others following.
The other riders quickly moved to avoid the fallen bike but Lennok was quicker to clench his fists.
“Dabi.”
[Bwaang.]
Kwaaaa!!
The bike that fell in the middle of the pursuers exploded precisely. In an instant more than five pursuers were burned.
“…!”
The bike riders raised their heads all at once looking up at Lennok as if they had been awakened by the flames blooming in the darkness.
Lennok ignored the murderous gaze and immediately loaded the bullet and pulled the trigger.
Taang!!
In an instant the helmet of one of the people following him was shattered and blood flowed out.
This time the bike fell as the driver fell.
However unlike before the other pursuers widen the distance by more than ten meters and in the meantime the train speeds ahead again.
“….”
Only then did the riders realize Lennok’s intentions and quickly made eye contact.
Kill the one that approaches and blow up the bike that has lost control.
If you get hit you will lose several times more people. If you avoid it tracking it back becomes impossible.
I don’t know what method was used but the moment I lost control of the bike it overloaded and exploded.
So what is the solution?
It was an instant for the pursuers to reach a conclusion.
Slam!! Kagagak!!

Each of them took out their equipment on the bike and began targeting Lennok at the same time.
Lennok smiled bitterly when he sensed that the fighting spirit was so wet that he could even feel it on his skin.
“So far everything is as expected… but I don’t know how soon Cassia will return.”
In the end the most important thing is to protect the train until it reaches the Dominion.
Although he tried to use obvious tricks to divert the pursuers’ attention in the end it was not easy for Lennok to completely protect the train by himself.
You can destroy your enemies better than anyone else without paying attention to your surroundings.
However is it possible to shake off more than a dozen magic users while fully protecting the train’s operating ability on a train moving so fast?
I’m not saying it couldn’t be done but it was a problem that Lennoc needed to approach a little more cautiously.
You should think carefully about using areas.
The magical power wielded in the hand through the magnetic realm was one of the most powerful weapons but the strong feeling of helplessness that came from its recoil was so overwhelming that even Lennok was momentarily rendered incapable of combat.
As a result in the battle with the exploration team Dylan and Mila did not fight Irina due to the recoil immediately after deploying the magnetic field.
Even while I’m trying to organize my thoughts the situation continues to flow.
In that short period of time as if they were exchanging thoughts with each other dozens of bikes began to increase their speed all at once and close the distance from the train.
Both sides of the train at the same time. The two bikes in front each turned their handlebars and flipped their bodies over.
An action that would normally never be done during a chase. Rather it will only become an obstacle that hinders those who follow.
What happened next far exceeded even Lennok’s expectations.
Buaaaa!!
An artificial slope created when the two leading bikes tilted their bodies exquisitely.
Using the car body as a pedestal dozens of bikes following behind soared high into the sky.
“…!!”
Lennok opened his mouth at the driving technique which was close to a stunt of jumping into the air using an ally’s vehicle as a stepping stone.
Although I have encountered all kinds of superhumans this was my first time seeing this type of technology in front of my eyes.
Although my attention was taken away by the flashy technology there must be only one reason why they forced themselves to jump onto the top of the train while performing such tricks.
Right now he is thinking of killing Lennok who is interfering with all of this work and chasing his target.
A rider took out a shotgun and shouted from the back of a bike that had jumped up against the moonlight.
“뒈져라 이 개새끼야!!”
Taaaang!!
The buckshot fired with a shout like a struggle was completely blocked by the shield raised by Lennok and disappeared.
“It was fun to look at but floating your body in the air is a defeat.”
Lennok instantly connected the magic thread to the four bikes in the air and retracted the rope.
“Uuuuuu!!”
The four bikes collided in the air and were shattered into pieces turning into huge chunks of iron.
[Magnetic Control]
Immediately after that a chunk of scrap metal mixed with the corpses of the riders and transformed into a giant screw was shot underneath the train.
Towards the other riders who were trying to speed up towards the front of the train taking advantage of Lennok’s gaze.
Kwaaaa!!
Iron chunks instantly crushed the three bikes ahead and flew into the air.

Lennok who confirmed that he had control over all the metals using the magnetism he had obtained using magic muttered as he stretched out his hands.
“If you were just trying to attract attention with this it’s not enough.”
Wow!!
Parts and screw bolts protruding from the bike bounced indiscriminately piercing other intact bikes and tearing into the flesh of the riders.
The pursuers who were working hard to increase their speed were unable to resist the metal projectiles digging into their bodies at all and began to collapse.
“Ugh!!”
“It hurts it hurts!!”
It may be surprising but people don’t easily think that the tool they are holding will stab the owner.
Lennok always preferred to outwit his opponent the moment he entered a battle but he had been feeling this tendency more keenly recently.
Because it is such a rough and dark city there is a tendency to trust others but only trust the equipment in your hands.
You need to be able to take advantage of that tendency but on the other hand it won’t work if you get caught up in it and forget about it.
While he was gathering his thoughts the man lying at Lennok’s feet was coughing up blood and laughing.
“Cough!! Hehe this isn’t the end… Don’t think you can just avoid being chased by a biker gang like this…!!!”
“It’s a biker gang….”
Do they want to brag about the neighborhood because they ride bikes?
This is a gang that uses a very intuitive name.
Lennok responded as he slowly pushed the man with his foot and pushed him off the roof of the train.
“I know.”
Coo!
If the Biker gang really did this to target Cassia it is normal for additional forces to be present.
Even though Cassia is from a research lab that is not used to fighting and is quite weak a firefight from the front would be burdensome.
It was not at all unusual for other forces to be on standby in order to finish the job without causing damage.
And if the information that Cassia is heading to the Dominion at this moment has been leaked…
‘It’s not strange at all to wait for a train.’
“excuse me!!”
At that moment Cassia who had just returned from her visit to the driver was heard sticking her head out the window and looking for Lennok.
Cassia looked around the train and looked up at the roof with a puzzled expression.
“Surely you’ve already dealt with all the pursuers?”
“It happened because they came so leisurely.”
“…I’m sorry about that. But there was a reason why the story became longer.”
“Please tell me.”
Cassia said with a serious face.
“We have to stop the train right now.”
“Why?”
“I just received a call from the driver. A crossroads on the road to Dominion. “They said a brokerage office located nearby was attacked.”
“….”
“It is likely that they are the same forces as the pursuers who attacked the train. And if you have contacted a brokerage there is a very high probability….”
“There is a possibility that he may have worked on the railroad as well.”
“that’s right. “If you don’t stop now the train may move in a completely different direction-”
Wow!!
As soon as he finished speaking the train vibrated violently and tilted sharply to one side.
Lennok who had fixed his body with a magician was fine but Cassia’s body which was sticking her head out the window shook greatly.
She barely managed to keep her balance and spoke with a pale complexion.
“I think it’s already too late.”
Lennok could tell too.
A fork in the railroad tracks that we just passed by. There was a deliberate change in direction from a biker gang.
From this moment the train is starting to move further and further away from the Philenom Dominion.
Buaaaa!!
To make matters worse dozens of figures approached again at high speed from behind the train.
As the name Biker Gang suggests it doesn’t seem like they intend to end it with just one chase.
“To be so persistent… It seems like you maintain a very close relationship with Teina Research Institute.”
“….”
Lennok sighed and took his eyes off Cassia who was sticking her head out.
“I’m going to turn around. “Please take care of those coming from behind.”
“It would be nice if we could do that but… is there a proper way?”
Cassia asked.
“Ultimately in order to change the route again in this situation you would have to stop the train and move it back which is impossible when they are chasing you from behind.”
“…”
“It might make more sense to wipe out all the pursuers here walk to the brokerage station and find another means of transportation.”
“No it will be possible.”
“How on earth can you…?”
“It hasn’t been long since we left the route. “At this level there is something we can do.”
With the metal manipulation ability that I just assessed while using magnetism-type magic there is a good chance.
After assessing the estimate in his head Lennok immediately moved the magician attached to his body and began moving to the frontmost compartment of the train.
* * *
“Ha… how did things happen like this…”
Cassia looked at Lennok’s back as he crawled toward the front of the train and sighed.
It was nice to board a train heading to the Dominion to find medicine to heal the head of the Vaila Research Institute.
The turmoil happening now was something she couldn’t easily handle on her own.
It’s not that I can’t figure out why the biker gang has shown up at this moment and is chasing her.
As the achievements of her research institute led by Director Bayla were significant the conflict with other research institutes was intensifying.
It is not at all strange to think that he may be planning to take Cassia who has been serving as the director’s secretary hostage or that she is on her way to deliver innovative technology to the Dominion.
“…”
The more I thought about it and became aware of the current situation the more I felt my blood run cold.
okay. This city was like this from the beginning.
So far I have been able to focus on my research while being safely protected by the wizard society but if I step out of the sun even a little I will encounter violence like this.
A partner with whom reason and logic do not work.
A city of outlaws who will do anything to get what they want.
“…Sniff!”
Although she felt like she was about to cry Cassia gathered her composure by forcing herself to inhale through her nose.
We must not stop here. Shouldn’t you complete your duties properly at least for the sake of the director?
But even so I couldn’t help but think of the man who had just walked up the roof of the train.
It was hard to imagine a wizard like her not being at all embarrassed by such an absurd chase but rather killing the biker gang with cruel hands.
Judging from the surge of magical energy she felt while she went to tell the story to the driver the man probably could have killed more than a dozen people but the man’s face showed no signs of agitation.
Could this be the example of a wizard that you have been hearing about so many times?
Perhaps talent is a word that includes a strong mind that does not break one’s composure in such urgent situations.
“This is not the time.”
I don’t know what solution the man has in mind but first as he said we must stop the chase group following us.
The solution to turn back the train would ultimately be possible only after stopping all interference from the biker gang.
Thinking like that the moment she tried to raise her magic towards the approaching gang.
Deeudeeudeeudeuk!!
“Kwaaaah?!”
The train suddenly began to rumble accompanied by a bizarre noise.
She lost her balance and stumbled suddenly raised her head and opened her mouth wide.
“Oh my god this is….”
Dozens of railroad tracks floating in the night sky were moving in unison to the front of the train creating a new path.
