Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 312



Fortress attack operation (2)

[It was according to the location coordinates you gave me. After checking the records left at the facility it appears that it has already been in operation for more than three days and that nearly a thousand pieces of artificial meat have already been cultivated. When we arrived they were already chopping off living flesh like human beings.]

“I understand. “Was there anything unusual?”

[…I don’t know if I understood it correctly but it seems like the plan was to insert artificially set battle data into the brain of this artificial body and use it as a killing doll.]

Felix muttered in a shaky voice and let out a soft lament.

[It’s a shame that those who protected the Balkan defense line have degenerated to this level.]

“Aaaah!!!”

When the colonel heard those words his previously stiff face contorted and he began to howl like crazy.

Even after being completely pierced by the ultra-vibrating spear did he still have the strength to resist that much?

However Lennok was able to understand the colonel’s thoughts to some extent.

Shame insult humiliation diminished honor and ultimate glory and shame. All can be endured for one purpose.

But even so pity is unbearable.

That was proof that they were just traitors who had already thrown everything away unable to give any meaning to what they had done so far.

The image of the colonel stretching out his hands while struggling like crazy even though his entire body’s internal organs and blood vessels were crushed to pieces.

At that moment Lennog was staring at the sight.

Suddenly!

Illya who was standing next to him cut off the colonel’s head with a spear as cleanly as a sword.

The body of a superhuman who has already lost his ability to fight is cut to the point of futility and falls to the ground.

Everyone in the room remained silent and mourned the end of the soldier who once protected their city.

Aris who was looking at the scene with his arms crossed next to him asked.

“Was it effective?”

“Without a doubt.”

Palad answered.

“It’s not for nothing that we haven’t brought the Antares mercenaries to the forefront until now. “It is an elite armed group with moderate tendencies but each individual member is a highly skilled group… In order to utilize that power most effectively the method that Ban came up with was the best.”

It’s not that Dylan and Mila suddenly became busy and couldn’t help Lennok until now.

Rather Lennok persuaded the Antares office which was about to establish itself at Meyer’s call and kept his whereabouts a complete secret.

Since it was recognized that the purpose of the National Guard headquarters was not simply inside the city there was a need to hide the trump card to turn the situation around.

And Lennok’s plan worked out exactly.

As soon as they obtained the location information of the artificial meat cultivation facility that was relocated from the closed area they dispatched a mercenary raiding force led by Felix the Bird-Headed Giant.

At the same time as drawing attention from this side they succeeded in destroying the culture facility through a diversionary operation.

Now that the National Guard Command and Gearside have recognized that the reason they have been collecting combat data from freelancers within the city was to supplement new manpower by cultivating artificial humans through artificial meat cultivation it is not difficult to destroy the plan itself.

The important thing is just how efficiently work can be done in the process to minimize losses.

This would have been impossible if it were not for the infiltration operation of a mercenary group that deceived even the allies.

[It’s not like there were no losses on this side.]

Felix said in a slightly lowered voice.

[As you said some of the Gearside fighters were managing the facility. It would have been dangerous if the attention of the National Guard forces had not been focused on that direction.]

“I know. From now on things won’t be as easy as they were just now.”

As Lennok answered he slowly turned his gaze towards the sky beyond the satellite city.

“In the end if we can’t conquer that everything we’ve done so far will have no meaning.”

Whioooooo!!

The fever generated by the Antares mercenary group blowing up the artificial meat cultivation facility is blowing away the fog that had filled the city.

What appeared beyond the clearing fog was not a clear sky but a fortress of extremely strong steel.

Wow!!

Everyone holds their breath as they arrive at the outermost edge of the satellite city and begin to see the mobile fortress that has been established.

The majesty of the fortress which tightly blocked the sky outside the city and had thousands of guns aimed at the ground was overwhelming as if it had nothing to do with the fall of the National Guard.

It is only now that all preparations have begun to be made to deal with the strategic weapons that contain all the power of the National Guard.

* * *

In a dark room where you can’t even guess the direction or altitude.

The old man looked away from the scenery visible through the window his expression faintly distorted.

“Villen… was killed in action?”

[I’m not sure about the name.]

Beyond heterogeneous communication mixed with mechanical sounds.

An emotionless voice answered.

[In any case it is true that the troops blocking the main road into the satellite city were annihilated and at the same time the cultivation facility located in the right rear was destroyed.]

“….”

[During the process the damage on our side which managed the culture facility was significant. Some of the numbering that managed the data they collected was damaged.]

“…I see.”

[How do you plan to take responsibility for this damage Lieutenant General Treffen?]

An old man with gray hair and a sharp look.

Lieutenant General Trepen was the highest decision-maker in the headquarters and the National Guard Lieutenant General and had the outer front lines under his control.

But now all I can do is sit in the command room of the mobile fortress and watch and listen to the unfolding situation.

Since when did things become like this? Now I don’t know why I fell so far behind.

The only thing is that by the time this position that he wanted so much became his it was already too late for everything.

The reduction and collapse of the National Guard was unstoppable.

I thought it was inevitable that my subordinates would decide to retire and leave the military.

But I couldn’t stand the sight of this place which I worked so hard to obtain fading.

That’s why I didn’t reject the hand they extended.

Even if he betrayed the entire values ​​he had upheld the command’s status had to be maintained.

Because that is the only way to prove that the time he devoted to the military was not in vain.

[I think it’s time to review the last proposal we made.]

Would it be an illusion if the hard mechanical voice sounds like a sweet temptation?

[Lieutenant General Trepen. If you have the will this whole situation can be dramatically reversed.]

“….”

[Don’t you know how much effort we put into preparing for this project? It won’t take long. There will be no pain. But that wish will be close to eternity.]

Only then did Treffen understand why they were called the Machine Cult even though they had no religious form.

A proposal from a superhuman who has acquired perfect intelligence and wisdom through research in magic engineering.

When I first received the offer I thought it wasn’t even worth considering but now it starts to sound like more reasonable and rational advice than anything else.

Trepen’s head tilts very slowly.

It was only then that the voice began to let out sounds other than those of communication for the first time.

[That’s right… I knew I couldn’t refuse. You will be able to become one with the symbol you have been longing for.]

The scenery of a heavy mobile fortress was dimly visible behind Trepen who lowered his head.

* * *

Immediately after occupying the main road leading to the center of the satellite city the group immediately entered into a brief meeting.

Even communication was not easy due to the magnetic storm blowing nearby.

The moment this much force was gathered in one place it was necessary to explain the strategy and move as quickly as possible.

“Five castle-level talents. Dozens of level 6 military capable people. Plus hundreds of battle-hardened veterans and agents.”

Palad spat out grandiose words with a face that was not even the slightest bit impressed.

“This is the first time since I started wearing a tie that I have commanded a superhuman force of this size. “It’s not enough but I’ll do my best.”

“Let’s stop talking nonsense and get to the point.”

Hina cut off his nonsense with a cold face. After regaining his appetite Palad spoke again.

“It’s fortunate that the class’s plan was successful and narrowed down the target to just one. Originally we would have had to divide our forces to attack the artificial meat cultivation facility and mobile fortress at the same time.”

In the previous battle the Antares mercenary group achieved considerable success in destroying the cultivation facility.

Not only did it overshadow the activities of the National Guard’s intelligence unit that had been operating secretly inside the city but it was essentially blocking the possibility of further expansion of the National Guard’s strength.

In the mobile fortress attack operation reducing two positive variables for the opposing side was of great significance.

“I intentionally kept the colonel alive and told him the story so related information would have flowed to the headquarters and Gearside as well.”

Hina answered while adjusting her glasses.

“If they realized that we had obtained the location information of the closed area relocation facility they wouldn’t be able to disperse their power carelessly.”

“The only thing left to do is to continue to infiltrate the satellite city and narrow the battlefield.”

Lennok nodded rubbing off the remaining tobacco.

“The narrower the battlefield the less room there will be for mobile fortresses to be active. “Reduce the range where fire power can be projected to a minimum deal directly with the National Guard generals and take control of the fortress.”

National Guard coup.

The core is the mobile fortress itself which projects enough firepower to establish and maintain a single front line with its mere presence.

Without the existence of a fortress and its firepower even the National Guard Command’s requirement to hold Balkan citizens hostage would not have much meaning.

Naturally it becomes possible to block Gearside’s plans to cooperate with the headquarters.

“If we put aside the National Guard forces scattered around the satellite city and think about it there are three things that need to be done right away.”

Lennok held a pen on the operation table where the command vehicle had been disassembled and taken out.

“How to access the mobile fortress how to take control and…”

“I guess it’s a question of how to deal with the command generals.”

Aris naturally responded.

She met Lennok’s gaze and continued speaking.

“According to what is known there are as many as three major generals who have reached the rank of castle including Lieutenant General Trepen… If we take into account the Gearside’s strength this side will be outnumbered.”

“You don’t have to worry.”

Felix the bird-headed giant who was standing with his arms crossed spoke in a heavy voice.

“I don’t know about the others but I and I have a lot of experience with this kind of thing. “It’s about two old guys so I can take on them all by myself.”

Felix said that and naturally turned his gaze towards Aris.

“Rather I wish Professor Richellen would fall to the rear and focus on providing fire support to our troops.”

“…Those are words that cannot be ignored.”

Aris raised her blue eyes and made eye contact with Felix.

In an instant a sharp tension arose between the two people.

“I have no intention of retreating to a safe place alone while others go to battle. “From the moment I joined the operation I was expecting a battle with the generals.”

“That’s not what I meant. “It’s ultimately a matter of efficiency.”

Despite Aris’ words Felix leisurely shook his head.

“Among those gathered here now except for Ban and you there is no one capable of providing fire support from the rear. “At least Donovan has done a great job in building the front line so far but it won’t mean much to monsters around level 7.”

“….”

Before you knew it everyone around you was listening to the giant’s words which were easy to listen to while going with the flow.

“Once the meeting is over we will attempt to enter the fortress to attack it but it is also true that we need a battery that can observe the situation from behind and provide fire support. “Am I wrong?”

“That means….”

“If possible I would like to place both Ban and you in the back line to prepare for any possible variables but given our military strength it is impossible to allow that much leeway. Wouldn’t it be right to put in the front lines someone who has worked well with us?”

Just as we wiped out the defense forces along the main road with Lennok someone needs to use strength from the rear by distributing firepower across a wide area.

In fact Aris probably doesn’t know this either.

But the reason why she insists that she can go to the front lines and participate in battle directly is-

“If it weren’t for the professor the class would have ended up having to fulfill that role. “Thanks to the addition of Professor Richelen the room to play an active role in both the front and back areas has increased.”

“…all right.”

Aris who listened to Felix’s calm persuasion eventually took a step back.

“Once the operation begins we try to focus on rear fire support. However I will cooperate to the extent possible in assessing the situation on my own.”

“It’s not my area to interfere up to that point. “It never meant that I couldn’t trust the professor’s judgment.”

Felix’s words and actions as he gently backed down and praised Aris until the end clearly showed the image of a manager leading the Antares office from within.

While Lennok was inwardly admiring Felix took a step back and narrowed his eyes at Lennok.

“Did you do well?”

“…What do you mean?”

“I thought you would probably want to fight in front of me so I took action in advance. If you do this that professor won’t fight in front of you.”

“….”

“While I haven’t seen you I’ve heard a lot of stories about you here and there. “I didn’t know you were the kind of person who enjoys fighting that much.”

Felix seemed to be under such a strange delusion that he had no idea where to start answering.

Felix tapped Lennok’s shoulder who was slightly opening his mouth with a cigarette in his mouth.

“Don’t worry I will take good care of you now that the companies have formed an alliance.”

While watching Felix’s back as he walked away Dabi muttered in his arms.

[I thought he was an intelligent person but there was a reason he had a bird’s head.]

“…I told you not to say that.”

Lennoch decided never to mention that he had similar sentiments.
