    Fortress attack operation (5)

    Dabi’s hacking ability reached some of the thousands of batteries mounted on the fortress.

    However even if it is only a part of it it is hundreds of guns. That’s over hundreds of shells.

    The last line of the main force of the National Guard fighting against the fortress. There was no need to say how fatal the bombardment would be if it hit the defenseless back.

    Doo doo doo doo doo doo!!!

    Hundreds of artillery guns spouting fire quickly line up in a row drawing a huge path of flame.

    In an instant more than a hundred National Guard troops were swept up in the fire reduced to ash and dust and desperate screams erupted from everywhere.

    “Hwaaaaa!!”

    “Hot hot!!”

    “We are under attack by this fortress!!! “It’s friendly fire!!”

    “Give an order to the control room to stop shooting immediately!! “Do you all want to die together?!”

    In an instant the formation of the main force of the National Guard begins to collapse due to the enormous firepower coming from behind.

    Freelancers and Aris’ rear support begin to break through and open a path from the front.

    Barclay looked down at the figure gritted his teeth and lifted the communicator.

    “The fortress’s bombardment system has been overpowered. Shut down that network immediately and renew its authority!! “What are you procrastinating about!!”

    [In progress. Even though I renewed my authority the bombardment did not stop…!!]

    “Don’t make excuses take action quickly!!”

    Barclay gritted his teeth and screamed into the communicator.

    “The fortress system itself is no different from the existing fortress!! Are you going to wait until we kill all of our allies?!”

    [In a situation where the central control system is not touched only the control authority of each gun gun is cleverly taken over. The computing power of the defense network cannot match that of the hijacker. Unless you open the entire network and respond…!!]

    “Damn….”

    Even if you don’t say it you can clearly feel it.

    Even through Barclay’s magical power detection I could see what was happening on the deck of this fortress.

    If the authority of the front gun ports is taken away the rear gun ports are taken over and bombardment is poured in.

    If control of the gun ports on both sides is regained this time they will take over the fort’s side defense gun ports and bombard them.

    It is natural for an untimely explosion to follow in the nuclear reactor located right below the fortress.

    At this rate it is highly likely that even charging the fortress’s power source will not be carried out properly.

    Even in this situation tanks and fighter jets rolling around on the deck exploded one after another steadily killing the commanding officers.

    The shouts of other commanders could be heard through the communicator.

    [Barclay!! What are you doing now!!]

    [The power at the back gate was cut in half due to friendly fire from the fortress. If we continue like this we will have to retreat completely and stage a sit-in inside the fortress.]

    [If the commander knew about this do you think he would leave you alone!!]

    Barclay who had his head down raised his gaze.

    “Open the central network. “If we don’t have enough computing power we need to borrow it to prevent this situation now.”

    [But then it becomes relatively vulnerable to external intrusion…]

    “It would be okay to find the lightning rod and kill it before then.”

    Slam!!

    Barclay who had adjusted his sword answered with his feet on the edge of the deck.

    “I was so distracted earlier that I didn’t realize it but there is only one place for him to run to on this fortress.”

    What if there was no trace of it on the deck of the fortress and it was not even visible anywhere in this wide sky?

    If the opponent had not soared into the sky it would have been natural for him to have fallen to the ground.

    And speaking of land in this fortress-

    Kwasik!!

    Barclay who had driven his sword into the outer wall of the fortress threw himself downward.

    At the same time he climbs upside down on the fortress bridge falls down and quickly looks behind him.

    Barclay’s eyes widened as he found something he wanted.

    “…I found you you damn bastard.”

    A dense net made of magic thread. I turn my gaze to follow the traces.

    At the center of the net like a spider web are woven magic threads on the inside of the fortress bridge.

    The wizard with a smoking pipe in his mouth sat down and smiled at Barclay.

    * * *

    [Break through the 3rd blockade! National Guard main force formation collapses! A path has been opened due to friendly fire from the mobile fortress. Attempting to enter the fortress!!]

    [Two colonels eliminated. One is missing. The three are engaged in combat. Aris is supporting!!]

    [The bombardment near the nuclear reactor opened the way. All members of the Special Forces were killed except for Major General Alvan. Other agents other than me are occupying the reactor.]

    [This is Felix. Major General Zelic suffered minor injuries. A significant portion of the enemy forces deserted due to friendly fire poured in at the back gate of the fortress. We will push ahead with the operation.]

    News of victory continuously heard over the earphones.

    Lennok turned down the volume on the loud communication network once more and slowly stood up.

    Barclay’s gaze standing upside down behind the fortress was as creepy as a ghost.

    He muttered gritting his teeth as he slowly walked towards Lennok.

    “I don’t know what they did but it doesn’t feel very pleasant.”

    “….”

    “I never thought we would have our comrades killed with our own hands. I have a very nasty hobby. “Was that what you were aiming for from the beginning?”

    “That can’t be possible.”

    Lennok who calmly raised his magic power smiled and shook his head.

    “I just found the most efficient solution while exploring various methods.”

    In reality what Lennoch attempted was not that complicated.

    As he confronts Barclay he realizes that there is a hidden passage and at the same time through Dabi he figures out a hidden route to the inside of the fortress.

    Through one of them Dabi is first infiltrated into the fortress.

    Dabi sneaked in and hacked the gun control system of the nearest fortress.

    The moment he confirmed this Lennok postponed the battle with Barclay and focused on supporting allies on other entry routes.

    The reason they hid themselves under the back of the fortress was because the magician they had hung when they first climbed up the fortress bridge remained.

    Rather than proceeding with the battle right away he was focused on actively supplying magical energy to Dabi’s side and pushing the battlefield into chaos.

    “All of this tragedy… is just an improvisation?”

    Barclay asked narrowing his eyes.

    “Are you asking me to believe that?”

    His suspicions are valid.

    Although it was only a short moment the series of bombings launched by Lennok by seizing the gun port of the mobile fortress were fatal enough to change the situation of the war in an instant.

    The firepower poured down on them from the fortress that they thought was an absolute ally.

    It is not difficult to imagine how shocking the blow that pierced the defenseless gap must have been to the main force of the National Guard fighting on all sides.

    The situation changed significantly as the formation that had not allowed a gap until then suddenly collapsed and the three entry routes that did not miss the gap suddenly turned the tide of battle.

    Although Alban and Director Zelich are still holding out it will only be a matter of time before they give way to the inside of the fortress.

    And the only ones who knew the cause and effect of it all were the two people here and now.

    In fact all the security and defenses of the mobile fortress were breached by just one wizard. This is a result that is hard to believe even when you see it with your own eyes.

    And there was only one person who could correct that mistake: Barclay.

    “Now I know what those machines meant.”

    Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss22222>

    A sharp wind begins to gather between the blades of the long sword stretched toward the ground.

    It is a microcosm of a superman who has completed his own image and constructed it as an inner world.

    This is the intention of a prosecutor who freely handles the air and wind as if it were his or her own mind.

    Barclay said as he held up the sharply forged sword blade.

    “You are too dangerous. “I will kill you right here before you reach the commander.”

    “Barclay. “You probably already know.”

    Lennok laughed on top of the magician that was shaking and breaking little by little.

    “This battle has no meaning right now.”

    “Well I don’t know.”

    Barclay also laughed.

    “What I would do was decided from the beginning!!”

    Awesome!

    At that moment the fierce force of the fierce wind instantly cut down the magicians everywhere and rushed towards Lennok.

    However in the meantime a few of the surviving magicians held on to Lennok’s body and began to swing around the lower back of the fortress as if they were swinging.

    An impossible move if the magician had not expected to be attacked from the beginning.

    “Signal from the control room. “I got it for sure.”

    Whiiing!!

    Lennok said looking back at Barclay in the air.

    The reason for hiding behind the back of the fortress and waiting for the opponent’s reaction.

    This is to trace back the location of the signal sent from the control room in order to regain the control of the gun that was taken away.

    With that one word Barclay who realized Lennok’s intention distorted his face and Lennok laughed.

    “Now I just have to kill you and take over control of the fortress.”

    “Shut up!!”

    Barclay running backwards along the back of the fortress becomes a large flash of light and chases after Lennok.

    Unusual speed. However the anticipation mixed with the rush spun towards Lennok with a much more threatening force than the speed.

    The broken magician sticks to his body like a spider web impeding his movement but is cut off and scattered by the sharp wind.

    Lennok ignored Barclay’s appearance and lightly traced the sleeve of his coat with his right hand.

    Slam!!

    The rechargeable shotgun held in both hands glows bright blue.

    I calmly stare at the flash of light right in front of me and pull the trigger.

    The rechargeable shotgun which had been pre-heated several times in advance fired in an overheated state.

    Blue flames flew in the air and a huge shock wave was emitted.

    Quaaaaaaa!!

    “Kaaaaaa!!”

    The charge was so powerful that it pushed away the impact of the charging Barclay from the front.

    Due to the recoil Lennok’s body was pushed out of the back of the fortress and soared onto the deck.

    After casting the floating spell Lennok’s body fell narrowly onto the deck rolling along with his coat.

    “Wow…!!”

    Although he used all kinds of common magic to maintain his body’s balance and protect his condition it was still difficult for Lennok’s body to handle such intense movements.

    Lennok unable to overcome the rising feeling of nausea retched several times and stood up with a pale complexion.

    A sense of déjà vu as I staggered to my feet holding on to a nearby supply box.

    Before I could shake off that unfamiliar feeling I saw a flash of light running across the deck from the bottom of the fortress.

    Kwaaaa!!

    The flash of light rising into the sky hits the ground and blows out a heavy wind.

    Gray hair standing up from the center of a violently rotating gust.

    “Don’t even think about running away!!!”

    Barclay growled a pure white glow streaming between his eyes.

    Lennok put his hand on his coat sleeve as he looked at that murderous figure.

    Lennok took out a prayer bead from his left wrist and slowly held it forward and said.

    “It’s settled so there’s no need to waste energy.”

    “…what?”

    The Buddhist sphere Jeonto Shinhaejineon glows fiercely and begins to slowly rotate in Lennok’s hand.

    Barclay who sensed at a glance that the artifact was unusual also adjusted the sword in his hand and lowered his posture.

    ‘I took off the prayer beads I wore on my wrist. A type of artifact that you use directly. ‘From the magic I feel it’s close to a restraint ball.’

    With decades of combat experience he instantly recognized the power of the rosary.

    It’s clear that it’s something that feels a bit uncomfortable to bring out in this situation but it’s okay as long as you don’t get into trouble.

    With a wizard’s reflexes and reaction speed it would be impossible to even place the bead on one’s own body.

    The moment when Barclay contracted all the muscles in his body and ran forward as if exploding.

    Paaaaa!!!

    A strange magical light burst out from between his front teeth.

    Shining dazzlingly between the sleeves of a military uniform it was an old pencil with all sorts of magic characters engraved on it.

    “…!!”

    Before Barclay could react after recognizing the object’s identity his body was forcibly transported dozens of meters away.

    The neck was forced into the activated prayer beads.

    “Aaaah-!!!”

    Only then did he realize what Lennok meant and he raised a lump in his throat and shouted but it was already too late.

    In an instant his body frozen in space stiffened and fell to the deck.

    Barclay’s face frozen as he screamed with bloodshot eyes. A desperate expression that makes you guess how frustrated he was after losing.

    Lennok slowly sat down while looking at Barclay’s face.

    I lowered my head and vomited out my upset stomach.

    “Uuuuk…!!”

    The aftereffects of spinning on the back of the fortress as if riding a swing and climbing onto the deck have not yet gone away.

    It’s been a very long time since I made such an intense move with this body.

    In the past it wouldn’t be surprising if you fainted the moment you hit that much recoil with a rechargeable shotgun in the air.

    The fact that he is still conscious is possible because he is consistently taking medication through the medical clinic Janushka Greenway.

    If it hadn’t been for the diagnosis that not only increased mana addiction but also improved Lennok’s overall condition and raised his low points he would have suffered much more than he is now.

    [Master take a slow breath.]

    Dabi’s voice was still infiltrating the fortress’ internal circuit.

    [If a person struggles with a blocked esophagus the chance of suffocation increases. Focus on calming your breathing and slowly expelling any remaining foreignness.]

    “Whoa whoa…!!”

    Lennok who was half on the ground shaking smiled bitterly.

    I feel helpless for the first time in a long time. It’s a feeling I haven’t felt recently even while going through numerous battles.

    In a situation where you were falling from the air didn’t you focus on maintaining your balance by casting a floating spell?

    In fact it was practically the first time that such an intense aerial maneuver was attempted.

    Lennok who was staring at the contents he poured out slowly stood up.

    “…When I get back I’ll have to start researching how to build a personal airship.”

    [Are you talking about something like that used in the Philenom Dominion?]

    “The Dominion has completed the automatic flight algorithm so the software is sufficient.”

    Lennok wiped the corners of his mouth put away the shotgun he was holding and turned his head.

    “Let’s finish what we’re doing now and then talk.”

    It wasn’t for no reason that I went overboard and captured Barclay.

    A strange sense of discomfort felt as the operation to attack the mobile fortress progressed. I had to ask him about its identity.

    * * *

    Slam!!

    “Wow…!!”

    Barclay freed from the restraints of the prayer beads opened his eyes and twisted his whole body.

    Charrrrrrrrr!!

    “Damn it!!”

    Dozens of purple chains bound the limbs.

    Common magic gravity chain. It is also a binding force created by pulling together damaged tanks and fighter jets nearby.

    Every time he struggled one side of the deck shook violently but it was difficult to break the chain right away.

    In front of Barclay Lennoch loaded the revolver with a cigarette in his mouth.

    Click click!!

    Barclay’s brow furrowed as he realized too late how he had been treated.

    “Damn it from behind the fortress…!!”

    “It was over the moment I touched the pile of magic arrows I had cut off.”

    Piles of magicians that were cut down when tracking Lennok behind the fortress.

    The fleeting moment when a part of it brushes against the military uniform. Lennok took Enakpil’s five fingers and put them between his uniform.

    The ability to operate with such precision that it is hard to believe that this was accomplished in just a short period of time while flying in the air.

    Barclay looked up at Lennok in disbelief.

    “…that pencil. I’ve seen it too. But it would never have been an item that could be used in this way.”

    Enakpil’s five fingers are not a convenient object that can be inserted randomly and teleport the opponent through space.

    An artifact that is so safe that it cannot be operated without preheating time preparation and the user’s strong will.

    It is not for nothing that it is used as an emergency evacuation artifact by high-ranking politicians.

    However just now Lennok used the artifact as if those safety devices had no meaning and transported Barclay into space.

    “It is not difficult if you understand spatial interference.”

    Lennok who had finished loading answered.

    “It’s rather easy to tamper with an artifact that has such thorough safety measures in place. “It’s easy to adjust it to your taste if you take a few steps.”

    Lennok stroked the pure white muzzle pulled the hammer and placed his finger on the trigger.

    Without the slightest hesitation I took a shot at Barclay’s abdomen.

    Taang!!

    “…!!!”

    If it were an ordinary bullet it would be impossible to even pierce the skin of a saint-level physical ability person.

    However the bullet fired from Lennok’s revolver sliced ​​through Barclay’s muscles with ease and remained lodged inside his abdominal organs.

    The chill does not stop there but slowly freezes the body from deep within the body.

    Barclay who gritted his teeth and suppressed a scream laughed forcefully.

    “This part is so wizard-like…!! “It’s so thorough…!!”

    “You die.”

    Barclay’s words were cut off by Lennok’s calm declaration.

    “If we cooperate with this side our situation is not good enough to keep a talented person like you alive.”

    I tried to appease him right before the battle started but that was only before victory or defeat was decided.

    It was a story that didn’t have much meaning after they wasted time and succeeded in getting Dabi to break into the fortress first.

    And Lennok had no intention of showing unnecessary mercy to the enemy he faced for the first time today.

    “…I see.”

    “So you don’t have to answer any questions from now on.”

    Lennok bowed slightly made eye contact with Barclay and spoke.

    Eye movements and facial expressions changes in heart rate and temperature within the body and fluctuations in magical flow sometimes reveal more than words.

    Especially when you realize that you are about to die.

    I asked keeping in mind all of Barclay’s reactions.

    “Where is Lieutenant General Trepen now?”

    “….”

    “If you were watching the whole situation from the fortress’s control room it makes no sense that you haven’t shown up yet. “At least you should have moved the moment you were defeated.”

    Just because you are a fortress commander doesn’t mean you can just sit in the control room and direct the situation.

    In this world where superhumans run rampant those with military power regardless of their command needed to accurately recognize the place and moment when their power was needed.

    And this moment when Lennok took some of the gun ports and captured Barclay was a decisive moment when the tense battle situation tilted to one side.

    Still if he doesn’t move until this point wouldn’t it be impossible without causing problems for his life?

    And now if there’s one thing that could change Trepen’s status-

    “Ask again.”

    Lennok’s eyes glowed sharply and his left pupil rotated and turned purple.

    “Is Vice Admiral Trepen still human?”
