Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 318



Metamorphosis (3)

The heavy voice of an old man slowly rang out among the shimmering noise.

[I only realized this after the coup. The city council was planning to use even our last struggle as an excuse to lift the ban.]

“….”

[I despaired at the reality that the only reward for burning the lives of soldiers was the justification for lifting the prohibition law. It was impossible to stand on equal footing with them. Without an overwhelming force that exceeds the standard.]

“So you decided to accept Gearside’s offer and give up humanity?”

Lennok asked.

“To get to level 8?”

Considering Barclay’s words and Trepen’s actions it is not difficult to infer his purpose.

What goal would Trepen who completed the hierarchy and became a lieutenant general in the National Guard achieve even if he had to abandon his body?

The lieutenant general was planning to reach level 8 here with the help of Gearside.

[I was complacent for too long. I thought this was the end of the time I was allowed and was about to give up.]

The calm voice of an old man.

[But that wasn’t it. What I had to give up was not my limitations but my humanity-]

Coo coo coo coo coo!!!

A huge vibration suddenly rings out along with the fading tone of Trepen.

[-I only acknowledged it now.]

But the epicenter is not this fortress.

The shock erupting outside the satellite city can be heard up to here.

A strong tremor that shook not only the fortress but also the ground near the satellite city.

Recognizing the location of the place where the vibrations were coming from Lennok’s face hardened and he immediately ran out of the office.

“Dabi!!”

They immediately inserted Dabi into the control room database and hacked the fortress’ central control system.

The necessary authority is obtained using the biometric data on Lieutenant General Trepen’s corpse and the authority to operate the fortress is obtained.

Lennok who was displayed on a huge monitor screen in the satellite city of Delta slightly opened his mouth.

“Wait this can’t be right…!!”

Kwaaaa!!!

A desert area near the horizon far from the satellite city.

A huge sandstorm erupts nearby and something huge rises through the ground.

What stood up at almost the same time at two points were two fortresses that looked exactly the same as the mobile fortress that Lennok had just infiltrated.

The mobile fortress that had been maintaining the outer front line with only one building appeared as many as two more.

Everyone who was engaged in a fierce battle near the fortress stopped moving for a moment at the sight of the scene that was beyond common sense.

But the shock didn’t last long.

The two fortresses that rose from the ground exploding sand dust began to move past the satellite city.

Coo coo coo coo!!

The direction he was heading with his heavy steps was towards the outskirts of the undeveloped area where the huge city is located.

Only then did the freelancers who realized Lieutenant General Treffen’s true purpose start screaming and the communication network became noisy.

“Heading to the fucking Balkans!!”

“I never would have guessed that there were two more forts hidden away…!”

“Have you been waiting for an opportunity until now using all the strength of the National Guard as bait? You crazy bastard!!”

“We have to go and stop it!!!”

[If the city council wants chaos they will create it.]

Trepen’s voice resonated majestically throughout the satellite city.

[If you look forward to lifting the prohibition by sacrificing millions of lives I will do so.]

Weeeeeee!!

The batteries on the decks of the two forts begin to rotate in unison and heat up.

The speed at which it moves forward while moving its thick legs feels faster than that of most vehicles.

[I will not stop until I burn down the Congress Clock Tower…!! Hahahahahahaha!!!!]

Hearing the maniacal laughter Lennok quickly began to assess the situation.

[half. Are you listening?]

Immediately afterwards Palad’s voice rang out over the communicator.

[Lieutenant General Trepen moves. I believe they infiltrated the fortress control room. Can you briefly explain the situation?]

“Sure.”

As Lennok explained how he got to the control room and what he saw inside Palad let out a sigh.

[Unconfirmed relocation facility in the desert area near the satellite city. It appears that both places were where unfinished mobile fortresses were hidden.]

“If you look at the circumstances it seems that way.”

[The plan was probably to complete the two unfinished forts with the help of Gearside and advance using the National Guard’s strength as bait. It’s an idea that’s hard to think of with anyone in their right mind.]

Pallad sighed and said.

[Now Ilya and Felix are leading their respective agents and mercenary forces to engage the generals. It is difficult to mobilize power right away.]

“….”

[This is not a request to ask you who took back the fortress on your own but there are not many people who can move now.]

“The problem is that there is not just one fortress.”

Lennok said looking out of the control room.

Outside the window two fortresses were moving constantly moving rapidly away from the satellite city.

“I don’t know where Trepen who reorganized his body and came back to life is there but to stop two fortresses alone it’s not enough.”

[I will go with Hina.]

Palad answered calmly.

“Are you going to be okay?”

Although he serves as the agent’s deputy director Palad’s combat skills are virtually non-existent.

If you encounter a revived Trepen you won’t be able to last even 5 seconds.

But Palad laughed in an innocent voice.

[The moment you recaptured the fortress control room the control tower’s role ended. All that remains is to clear out the wardens holding on to the reactor and the back gate of the fortress. But that’s not an area I can help with.]

[I will join you too.]

Immediately after Aris’ cold voice rang through the communication network.

[The main forces of the National Guard stationed on the main streets of the satellite city have almost all been liquidated. The remaining forces can also be dealt with by friendly freelancers… In that case it would be right for me to focus on blocking those newly appeared fortresses for now.]

“….”

[I guess they were the ones who told me to leave some reserves in case of an unexpected situation?]

“All right.”

Lennok said no more and stood up.

“Then from now on we have to find a way to cover that distance and reach the fortress.”

The distance between the two fortresses that have just appeared is more than 10km at best.

If I were alone I would try to close the distance somehow even if it meant changing the bike’s engine but it would be difficult to achieve that speed with Palad and Hina Aris.

[What are you talking about now? Come down to the deck quickly.]

“what?”

[I guess I didn’t say I could help you for nothing.]

Lennok looked down at the deck through the control room window and laughed when he saw the two people.

Pallad was grinning and waving his hand as he picked one of the fighter planes lying around below the deck which was in complete disarray.

[After all this he was a fighter pilot.]

“under….”

[Decades have passed but it’s not difficult to deliver three people. Get on it quickly.]

* * *

“So how do you plan on taking four people on a two-seater fighter plane?”

“….”

Palad slowly turned his head at Aris’ cold words.

Aris sighed deeply.

“The idea itself is not bad but the problem is that there is only one person who can ride it.”

“It would be possible if we airlifted one more fighter jet but…”

“Then we are short on pilots this time.”

Lennok received Hina’s words.

“It may not be impossible to find another good fighter jet if you search this deck but… Is there anyone among you two who can fly a fighter jet?”

Aris and Hina looked at each other at the same time and shook their heads.

“It is possible to reach an armored vehicle but an aircraft…”

“I got my Balkan driver’s license a month ago.”

“…”

I received some good information that Aris got her license a month ago.

In the end Lennok nodded towards Aris.

“Let’s go first.”

“How are you going to follow me?”

“I have experience operating aircraft but I’m not sure if I can operate a fighter jet.”

Lennok said that and winked at Hina.

“It would be better to have someone relatively strong on board just in case it falls.”

Aris and Hina’s expressions crumpled at the same time.

“It’s not that strong but…”

“I’m impressed by your unnecessary consideration.”

“…Isn’t that important now?”

I feel like I’ve unintentionally lost favor but whatever the case I’m in an urgent situation.

In the end Aris got on the back of Palad’s fighter and Lennok and Hina found another good fighter and settled down.

Hina who was fastening her seatbelt in the back asked.

“Have you ever flown an aircraft like this before?”

“I’m not lying.”

Lennok said that and naturally let Dabi who was hiding in his arms penetrate through the cockpit dashboard.

Dabi who instantly interpreted and took control of the fighter’s flight system began uploading the same algorithm he had previously completed.

A flight algorithm that was built and completed to some extent using the Philenom Dominion’s airship.

I had no idea that I would be testing its performance in a place like this but now was not the time to look for other tools.

[Automatic flight algorithm upload completed. System startup.]

In an instant the instrument panel light came on the altitude indicator activated and the fighter plane the two people were sitting in began to slowly tremble.

[Securing driving range. The engine starts to ignite. 3 2 1.]

Weeeeeee!!

At the same time that Lennoc held the control stick and pretended to push forward the hot fighter flew across the deck.

Kwaaaa!!

The fighter jet which bounced off supplies boxes scattered nearby just by the wind pressure as it raced seemed to fall off the deck and then soared into the sky.

Hina who was sitting behind the dynamic movement screamed.

“Aaaaaaa!! “Sturdy agent die!!”

“….”

Hina who seemed to have somehow taken Lennok’s words to heart broke the speed of sound with a scream.

The aircraft regained its balance with a sonic boom that instantly exploded into the sky.

[I can’t help it because the driving distance is a bit short.]

Dabi grumbled in a disapproving tone into Lennok’s communicator.

[Still acceleration was successful.]

“good.”

Hey!

Lennok muttered as he quickly changed direction and headed towards the mobile fortress running in the distance.

“Let’s go right away.”

Kwaang!!

* * *

Two fighter planes taking off almost at the same time.

Felix turned his head after seeing the direction in which the aircraft which had instantly surpassed the speed of sound was heading.

“It seems like things are slowly coming to an end.”

“Kuhuh…”

A sharp-looking man drenched in blood.

However even his initially strong strength has been completely lost and he is only somehow supporting himself by leaning on the pillars of the fortress bridge.

Felix looked at him and put the battle hammer he was holding on his shoulder.

Blood was dripping from the surface of the extremely heavy hammer.

“The fortress you were so proud of has fallen and all that remains is Lieutenant General Trefen. Even though we received help from Gearside we will end up stopping near the city.”

He said crouching down like a mountain and bowing his head with the man Director Zelich.

“If I wanted to regain my prestige I should have started again in the shadows of the city. Did you think you could bring that city to its knees in such a reckless way?

Director Zelic slightly twitched and raised his head and asked Felix.

“Antares… did you say office?”

“I see.”

“Ha this is ridiculous… Cough!”

Zelic let out a blood-curdling cough and laughed.

“Are you saying that the hero from 20 years ago was running a mercenary office behind the scenes of a huge city?”

“….”

“It must be true that a strong person like you is acting like a mercenary. I thought it was just a coincidence… haha.”

Zelic said lowering his head.

“So are you really starting from the shadows to bring the city to its knees?”

“hmm.”

Felix said touching his beak with his thick hand.

“I thought you were a closed-minded person because you are lending a hand in this matter but you have opened up your mind a lot.”

“Kukkk …. It’s rare for guys who are looking back.”

Zelic’s expression which was giggling slowly fades.

“Unless you’re looking at your former self like a mirror…”

“….”

“Nothing… okay… this isn’t bad either…”

The blurry voice suddenly stops and the eyes lose focus.

Felix looked down at Zelic’s face and gently covered his eyelids with his hand.

Words that I had not yet been able to convey to him flowed out softly.

“We haven’t changed much between then and now. “I’m just biding my time and doing what I have to do.”

“─────.”

“Even if it has lost glory and fallen that city must remain there. Even for the sake of the tens of millions of lives living there….”

“Mr. Magat.”

A mercenary appeared behind the muttering Felix and quietly called to him.

Even within the mercenary group Belver is famous for revealing money. But now his expression was calm and calm.

“All remaining National Guard units in the vicinity have been liquidated.”

“You worked hard.”

Felix turned and nodded.

“Shall we follow Van and move toward the fortress?”

“Let’s divide the power in half and move.”

Slam!

Felix answered raising his hammer.

“Belver please lead the others and provide support near the reactor. “Cybrid Echo’s Lancer may not have decided the winner yet so help him and follow him.”

“What about Magat?”

“Of course we should follow them.”

Felix lifted his beak as he said that.

A magnificent mobile fortress was standing strong blocking the sky of the spacious satellite city.

“Isn’t there something prepared here for that?”

“….”

Instead of answering Bellver opened his mouth blankly.

* * *

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss]

“Bar Van?”

Hina whose complexion turned slightly pale called out to Lennok from behind the fighter jet seat.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I think this fighter jet is too fast….”

“It’s been a while since I came down from the speed of sound. “If you want to drop it off midway it’s impossible without slowing down…”

It is natural that using the auto-flight algorithm you can move much faster than now but it is actually impossible to drop Hina on one side of the other fortress.

Even if ejecting the seat is as simple as pulling a lever it would be difficult to see a good result if she was ejected at supersonic speed.

In the end in order to stop two forts at the same time the power must be split.

Although Aris is moving with the help of Palad it will be difficult for Palad himself to be of help in this battle.

In that case it would be reasonable for Lennok who is relatively capable of doing various things to take charge of one fortress and leave the other to Hina and Aris.

“….”

Hina looked at Lennok’s back and asked.

“Do you have a personal relationship with Professor Richellen?”

“…no. “But we met once before for something else.”

“okay. For some reason I have the feeling that Mr. Van is avoiding Professor Richellen…”

“….”

“It can’t be a coincidence right?”

I tried not to be conscious of it but it seems that it was difficult to deceive the agent even with subtle changes in attitude.

The fact that Hina discovered that reaction which had not been noticed by anyone until now must have been because Aris was unreasonably sent on Palad’s fighter plane.

Lennok answered as he gently turned the control stick to one side.

“It doesn’t mean much.”

“then?”

“It’s just that I think things will get complicated if he finds out the technology I’m using.”

In the process of hacking a fighter jet and injecting an automatic flight algorithm you inevitably have no choice but to receive Dabi’s help.

Even if it is possible to deceive other people’s eyes it would be impossible to take out Dabi and use its power while avoiding the senses of Aris who has the same level of skill.

I expected that I might feel uncomfortable but I never expected to be asked this question so immediately.

“Can I hear what the situation is?”

“It’s related to magic. “I’d like to avoid personal questions.”

Hina with her arms crossed finally smiled and looked out the window.

“I’m in trouble.”

“It’s difficult.”

“I thought the team leader would have a strong rival but if that’s the case I think it’ll still be okay.”

“…Stop talking nonsense and get ready quickly.”

As Lennok said that he turned his upper body and placed his hand towards Hina’s head.

“We slowly arrived near the fortress.”

“If you let go of the control like that…!!”

“are you okay.”

[Yeoreoshin (余雷身)]

It’s so scary…!!

As soon as the electric current from Lennok’s fingertips seeped into the top of Hina’s head her entire body’s reaction became more agile.

Hina O’Neill is one of the subjects for whom Lennok’s augmentation magic is most effective.

“I put in something stronger than usual so the effect will last a long time.”

Lennok laughed as he looked at Hina’s face looking up with a slightly dazed expression.

“Then please take care of me.”

“Wait a minute you can’t possibly leave me in this state-!”

Shake!!

As soon as the fighter jet cockpit glass opened the seat Hina was riding in ejected.

Her body tied by a seatbelt soared high into the sky.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

Hearing Hina’s scream Lennok gave a thumbs up without turning around.

“Baaaaaaan!!”

Lennok leaving behind an echo that seemed to be filled with anger immediately took control of the fighter plane.
