Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 174



Government building (2)

“….”

I thought he was showing a lot of energy but it turns out he was one of the wizards of the Blader Tower.

Lennok remembered what Weizen had said about visiting the Dominion to find a medicinal herb called Flameweed.

As soon as Baizen disappeared a wizard from another magic tower appeared looking for him so he was probably looking for an item called flameweed in the Blader Magic Tower dimension.

“Weizen… That’s the name I remember.”

Lennok who quickly completed the calculation answered calmly without changing his expression.

“We once worked together to pick wildflowers from the same plant. “I remember it clearly because he also taught me how to pick flowers.”

“hmm….”

For the first time confusion spread across the young man’s face at Lennok’s words.

The answer must have been quite different from what he had in mind.

“He’s not that kind of guy….”

The young man’s somewhat confused expression. Well considering what kind of guy Weizen was it’s not that surprising.

In order to induce such an ambiguous judgment Lennok deliberately revealed a little of the truth.

As the young man begins to follow his movements throughout the Dominion it eventually becomes known that he stopped by the plant.

If you mention this fact in advance you can guide the young man’s behavior in that direction.

Sure enough the young man politely bowed his head and took a step back.

“If it comes from a skilled wizard like you it is definitely not a lie. Thank you.”

“Nothing to say.”

“If I find him I will definitely reward him later.”

“It is an unreasonable case.”

“no. It looks like my priest is wandering around again possessed by inferior compatriots… I think we need to take this opportunity to correct him.”

“….”

The eerie look in his eyes that briefly appears beyond his polite expression is proof that he is not a person who has strayed far from the chauvinism of the Magic Tower after all.

As the young man said that he slowly walked out of the government building with ghost-like steps.

Grisha who was looking at the back grumbled in a low voice.

“Damn it. “I wasted my time on something useless.”

“It’s enough to know that I’m not alone.”

“It’s just one more annoying intruder. “What kind of bullshit is this?”

“If we take advantage of the fact that the Magic Tower systematically infiltrated the Dominion it will be possible to cover up what happened.”

Grisha who finally understood what Lennok was saying asked with a puzzled expression.

“You’re going to rob the Juice Master’s safe and blame it on those guys? “Is that possible?”

“Rather it is possible because it is now.”

Is there anything we can’t do in a situation where we have new recruits for Weizen?

The power of common magic is relatively inferior to that of unique magic but there is no magic more suitable for versatile use in this situation.

Lennok had already finished planning how to frame Weizen.

“It’s not something that needs to be said right away. “Let’s go inside first.”

It was a little late as I was having a conversation with the wizard who had been dispatched from the Magic Tower.

If the other person did not keep the promised time exactly it was enough time to get scared and run away.

The two walked quickly to the pre-arranged location.

The back gate at the back of the government building.

As they headed toward the back of the warehouse which was covered in deep shadows an older middle-aged man was waiting for the two with an anxious expression.

“You’re late. My heart was pounding while waiting and I thought I was going to die. Phew….”

“Have you finished checking the location of the item?”

At Lennok’s words the man nodded wiping the sweat from his forehead.

“Of course. Nowadays no one wants it so it is left to gather dust and be forgotten. Even if you take it from the warehouse no one will notice.”

“Then go.”

The two headed straight to the back gate of the government building with the man leading the way.

“I’ve already taken care of the patrol area so there won’t be any guards coming and going around here for the next 30 minutes. “If you finish your business quickly and leave no one will catch you.”

As the man said that he took out the small name tag he was wearing around his neck and held it against security devices throughout the building.

As the green light came on various security measures inside the building were lifted and the door was quickly opened.

‘This is why Lapis spoke so casually.’

Employees working in government buildings. For someone who is the head of a department the security inside the building is notoriously unreliable.

Even as a member of the relics department it wouldn’t be difficult to access the underground vault of the government building.

Grisha hasn’t said a single word since entering the building.

Instead he just stared at the back of the man ahead with a complicated gaze.

A man standing in front of the wide stairs leading down to the basement took out a flashlight from his pocket.

“From here on you cannot turn on the lights without permission… so please follow carefully.”

“don’t worry.”

Even without that the magic detection is maximized.

The number of people remaining in the government building now. And you can also see who among them is a magic user.

Therefore I was able to roughly guess why the man was saying such a thing.

At the same time that Lennok looked back at Grisha she nodded with a confused expression.

It would be correct to think that she also guessed to some extent what was happening and gave a signal.

As I went down the long curved spiral staircase a dark hallway appeared.

On both sides of the hallway there were small glass windows and doors lined up on either side.

Among them I grabbed a particularly large and thick iron door and opened it and thick dust came out from inside.

“Cluck clack clack!! I’m sorry about this. It’s a warehouse that’s rarely used so it’s not properly maintained. “The items gathered here are actually closer to souvenirs rather than special treasures.”

“You mean souvenirs?”

“Yes. The item he is looking for this time is of a similar type. Oh there it is. “I’ll probably bet on this.”

Inside the warehouse there were shelves full of dust.

A man rummaging inside a shelf took something out of a box and handed it to Lennok.

A rusty old statue. It is a landscape sculpture with a floating island located between three eyes.

“It looks very unique. “Does it have any special meaning?”

The man answered Lennok’s words by shining his flashlight across the shelves.

“Well it’s an item that symbolizes long history.”

Even after he had already found the item he wanted he continued to play with his hands diligently.

No I’m just pretending to be teasing. At the same time he naturally distanced himself from the two people.

“It was originally an object commemorating the agreement made between the Dominion and the Lighthouse to prohibit interference and harm… but today it has lost any meaning.”

“….”

Rattling.

The man who stopped at the deepest shelf said with his back turned.

“Now there is no one left to remember that promise.”

At the same time as he said that the man turned off the flashlight.

As darkness entered the warehouse my eyes instantly turned dark.

Lennok said as he took out a cigar from his arms.

“Stop acting useless and just ask one question.”

“Please tell me.”

“Were you already in disguise when we contacted you from here?”

There was no answer until the moment I lit the candle.

“Even if Lapis has been absent from the Dominion for a long time it makes no sense that she with her gift of foresight could not have noticed the betrayal of the official she had appointed to such an important department.”

“….”

“They probably kept him alive until Lapis contacted him and then killed him the moment they were sure he was from the lighthouse and disguised his face… If they were lucky they might even make him think it was betrayal. “Isn’t that right?”

The man who was silent for a long time slowly raised one hand and brought it to his face.

Squeaky…!!

The skin on the man’s face peeled off and a completely different face popped out from inside.

“If you’re guessing that far I guess I can’t keep you alive any longer.”

Paaaa!!

As soon as the light bulbs on the ceiling turn on the warehouse scene is revealed.

At the same time dozens of shelves in the warehouse collapsed left and right at the same time opening up hidden space.

A vast underground cavity that appears to be several times larger than what was visible in the dark.

Behind the fallen shelf what seemed like a dozen people were pointing their guns at the two people.

At the same time the life that had been hidden for so long flows out explosively.

If you hadn’t prepared for all of these things from the beginning this is something you would never show.

“It’s unfortunate. I thought I would be able to hear a deeper story after disguising the betrayal of this man named Enrico… but the loyalty of the gang members was stronger than I thought so I couldn’t stop. “I guess Cheong’s eyes were a better place than I thought.”

The expression on the man’s face was no longer frightened.

Rather it was just strangely calm.

“Well you don’t need it anymore. Anyway all the work that needed to be done through the relics department was completed. “For now I just want to enjoy this good fortune that has come my way.”

Lenok who read an unknown faint heat in those eyes turned his head to Grisha who was standing next to him.

“Seeing as you gave me a signal did you know about it?”

“I knew it the moment I saw your face.”

She responded with an eerily expressionless face.

“Enrico has known me since we were boys. There was no way they wouldn’t recognize my face even if they used a recognition-impairing spell. “I didn’t want to believe it but…”

She swept her face with one hand and raised her energy by smashing the bear bag in her mouth with her foot.

Exactly the same behavior as when testing Lennok’s abilities. Perhaps the act itself may be a trigger to unleash her main force.

A cruel look bloomed on her shadowed face.

“The little boy’s soul will be soothed with the blood of these bastards.”

“What are you doing!! “Kill me quickly!!”

As the man shouted the people who were aiming at the two from all directions pulled their triggers at the same time.

The bullet flew out of the magazine and stopped right in front of the muzzle.

[Magnetic Control]

Lennok’s magnetic magic stopped dozens of fired bullets on the spot.

It wasn’t that difficult with the magical manipulation ability that had become powerful enough to move dozens of railroad tracks while in operation.

The expressions of the people who saw the bullet floating in front of the gun barrel turned blank for a moment as if it were a lie.

Immediately after that Grisha grabbed a handful of his main weapon and swung it.

[Green onion meat]

Burbububbang!!

As Grisha’s hand gesture swept through the surroundings people’s heads exploded like watermelons turning the warehouse into a sea of ​​blood.

“Huhhh!!”

The man who was watching the ridiculous massacre let out a strange groan and crawled over.

Lennok frowned.

“It’s too much… Isn’t it more cruel than necessary?”

“what? “I never thought I’d hear something like that from you.”

Grisha smiled cruelly.

“Everyone knows the guy who has killed people. Cruelty is a taste but cruelty is a weapon. Making your opponent tremble with fear is also a very useful power in war. Like right now.”

As she said that she lifted the man’s collar with one hand and released her main focus.

Only then did the perception-impairing spell that had wrapped around her come off and the man’s eyes opened wide.

“Hey!! That Grisha…!!!”

“Hoo.”

Grisha laughed.

“Seeing as you know me I guess you’re one of those who stepped into the Western Resistance Front. “At that time I thought they had caught and killed everyone… but they couldn’t even pull out the drug lord’s henchmen?”

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…!! “How could you come from the Dominion… to the lighthouse?!”

“Ever since he was little Enrico was a coward who peed whenever something happened.”

Instead of responding to his words Grisha gritted his teeth.

“When that guy got older and said he wanted to infiltrate the government building I thought it was amazing… Why does he have to die like this?”

The moment Grisha’s finger stuck into the man’s temple he collapsed.

She muttered with a dejected expression as she looked at the fallen man with his eyes closed.

“Damn grandma….”

“Did you kill him?”

“Not yet. There’s a lot left to ask this guy. “We should let Amon interrogate him and find out how far the Dominion has gone.”

Grisha looked down at the fallen man with complicated eyes.

“Let’s take him first. “This one is enough.”

“What should I do with the items?”

“I don’t think he would have touched it. Since it was actually a worthless item they probably thought it was simply an excuse to make contact.”

“It’s an excuse….”

From the moment I entered the building following the man’s guidance I was vaguely aware of the reactions of life filling the basement.

When thinking about who might be behind this attack at that point there was one person who absurdly fit the current situation.

There is a reason to hide his treasury in the Dominion and take control of the floating island colony.

A member of the Battle of Pandemonium who is decisively at odds with the Lighthouse and other Blue Eyes.

The Philenom Dominion was already on the verge of falling into the hands of a drug lord.

Although it was completely unexpected should we say that it was good news that instead of discovering the existence of the Blue Eyes we found out who was behind it a drug lord?

“Judge later. “Let’s move for now.”

“okay.”

Considering what he said right before he fainted it seems like he touched Enrico without knowing that he was an official of the lighthouse but it is still too early to be sure of the specific circumstances.

The first thing to do is to return to the lighthouse and understand the context.

The moment when Grisha naturally carries the man and Lennok takes the lead.

Wood clack!! Dudu dudu dudu dudu!!

An ominous glow emanated from the corpses of people whose heads had been blown off and they began to wriggle.

The sight of corpses slowly rising from their seats with dark red light fluttering from the left side of the abdomen.

Lennok frowned faintly and Grisha turned around with a rather interesting look.

“Good. I was already feeling a bit uneasy but now I’m completely convinced… It’s been a while since I’ve seen something like this. “Did you borrow the power of necromancy?”

“I don’t think so.”

Lennok cut off Grisha’s words and pointed at the corpses with his finger.

“The area where the radiance comes from is all fixed on the left side of the abdomen. Probably the kind that takes effect after death. “It looks like it hasn’t been long since you took something seeing as it’s still in your stomach.”

Grisha tilted his head.

“So are you saying that the fact that they are swarming around like zombies right now is the effect of the medicine? “It’s a drug that makes people who have lost their heads move again. It’s like necromancy.”

“It won’t be a regular drug. And it’s probably not just a drug that creates zombies. If you look at that movement maybe…”

While he was saying that the headless corpses turned all at once and began to gather in one direction of the vast underground cavity.

Kkuyeok kkuyeok.

Without even the slightest intelligence they blindly rush towards each other breaking bones and overlapping pieces of flesh.

The blood that flows out as the muscles and skin burst is merely a lubricant for fusion.

Only then did Grisha frown for the first time realizing what Lennok was saying.

“Ugh… fuck. “It’s absolutely disgusting.”

“Didn’t you say earlier that cruelty is a weapon?”

“Actually it’s a lie. “I have a weak stomach.”

I don’t think this is something to be said by someone who has blown off more than a hundred heads on the spot…

While Lennok thought so he gazed closely at the grotesque figure of flesh gathering together.

Although it was clearly a sight he had seen with his own eyes for the first time it was a sight that felt familiar somewhere in his memory.

If the phenomenon were as bizarre as that it wouldn’t be strange for it to remain vivid in Lennok’s mind but instead he felt only a faint sense of déjà vu.

That fact seemed even more strange to Lennok.

Among the abilities that a drug lord could use was there any technology that attempted such bizarre human synthesis?

Or did he pick up similar clues from Jenny?

While Lennok was pondering over the somewhat unfamiliar phenomenon of lack of memory the lump of flesh was growing in size and turning into something subhuman.

Squeak!!

A huge hole opens in the center of the flesh where the blood has been extracted as if pus is being squeezed out from all directions and a new bell-like piece of flesh appears inside it.

“iced coffee….”

As the bell-shaped mass of flesh began to tremble and make new sounds Lennok clicked his tongue realizing the purpose of the mass of flesh.

“…did they create living vocal cords using a human corpse? “You’re out of your mind.”

[Ah… very accurate. wizard. That’s a very good intuition.]

The lump of flesh instantly adjusted its vocal cords and answered Lennok’s words in a heavy voice.

In contrast to the terrible gurgling appearance the voice coming out of the vocal cords seemed relaxed at first glance.

[Ordinary people are trapped by their own petty prejudices and do not easily realize what they are witnessing. However you threw away the façade of morality and ethics and brilliantly deduced the true nature of my work.]

“….”

[This is the method I like to use. I can project my will so clearly even on the other side of the continent thousands of kilometers away. Dirty appearance and complexity of the process are always the next problem.]

Although it was his first time hearing the voice Lennok felt it instinctively.

Drug lord. Juice Master. One of the largest statues on the continent. Shadow of the Republic.

A man who has taken control of the drug market in this huge world while receiving all kinds of adjectives and insults.

Dominic Cavarro has shown his will right here and now.
