Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 480



The land running on the sea (3)

P.O’s look of bewilderment on Evan’s face.

“Why isn’t my body moving…?”

Trying to somehow get up from between the sand pits he struggles as if he is being grabbed and dragged by something invisible.

Lennok could not bear to look at that figure properly and glanced away.

“Isn’t the mimicry not working properly?”

“That can’t be possible then the spell wouldn’t even activate in the first place… Ugh!!”

He inhales a lot of the sand dust he has created and spits it out with a sneeze.

His appearance was so pathetic that it was hard to believe that he was a person with the Aspect ability who had been fiercely attacking Lennok with his sophisticated mutation ability just a moment ago.

However Pio did not seem to have any inkling that this very obscene behavior was a risk that Lennok always had to take.

‘In some ways it’s natural but…’

The penalty on Lennok’s body is not just a restriction but a restraint on all abilities required to move the body.

Unlike Lennok who was accustomed to taking penalties from Pio’s perspective it was like being suddenly trapped in a body like trash.

Of course since Evan’s physical information is purely virtual data created arbitrarily by Lennok he may not have shared all of Lennok’s penalties.

It was obviously very interesting that he was having such a hard time and couldn’t even properly diagnose his own condition.

“Let’s do it one more fucking time!!”

Pio who took off the mimicry that had transformed into Evan’s face and transformed into the shape of a giant rhino rushed towards him.

“Sure.”

Did they decide that the information gathered through the battle was not enough?

Lennok also accepted Pio’s strike first without saying anything else.

Kwaaaaaaa!!!

The rush of a rhino-like magical beast and the fragments of the sand barrier become entangled spreading magical dance movements in all directions.

The sand on the coast rose like a wave and burst into space.

Babababababaak…!!

Dozens of thorns and spears made of sand rotate and stab in all directions and gently scattered sand particles turn into sharp blades.

The figure of Pio who was digging in between them without hesitation changed into the form of various beasts bladed firearms and metal and responded.

“Going…!!”

Through the rapid exchange of attacks and defenses Pio raised his magical power with all his might and turned his body over.

The body which was half transformed into a tank-like shape rapidly contracts and is eventually compressed into a human shape.

The appearance of an older man who is completely different from Fiona Gio’s face.

At this point if he had taken out a human form rather than another weapon or beast it would almost certainly be the mutant form that Pio was most confident in.

Perhaps it is the shape of the most important person or most memorable acquaintance to the shapeshifter.

Kuoooo…!!

The highly compressed magic power rotated between the fists of P.O. who had transformed into the appearance of a mature man and was shot down as an elongated flash of light.

Lennok’s sand wave countered the impact that turned the entire field upside down.

In the split second of taking a breath dozens of slashes and shocks crossed and crossed each other exploding in all directions in a chaotic manner.

In the aftermath P.O. who had once again reached Lennok’s nose rotated his elbow and caused a big stir.

Lennok who saw the identity of Pio’s microcosm before his eyes immediately moved.

I took a step to the side avoiding the first attack with endless rotational force.

I took a step back to give myself a moment to catch the storm bursting through my grasp.

And as if the intense battle that had continued up until now was meaningless he took a step forward to bridge the gap between P.O.

The moment Lennok’s hand passed between Pio’s forearms like a ghost and lightly pushed the solar plexus away.

The body bounces backwards and lands upside down on the sandy beach as if flying.

Wow!!!

“Kahak…!!”

Before Pio could stand up Lennok stepped on his back and cast gravity magic on him.

P.O’s final words let out a groan mixed with coughing.

At the same time the sand fluttering above the coast fell to the ground all at once creating a gentle rain of sand.

Passsssss!!

“Three steps.”

On the sandy beach that suddenly became quiet Lennok took his foot off Pio’s back and said with a smile.

“It’s very difficult without making sure to move.”

“….”

“Mutation technique mimicry of a natural enemy. “I guess this is enough right?”

Instead of answering those words Pio looked up at Lennok with a bewildered expression.

Raped and Gap-seon also just kept their mouths shut and remained silent.

“Whoa damn it… This is the first time I’ve been stamped out like this even under the guise of execution.”

Pio took a deep breath and stood up hesitantly.

“good. “I don’t know why the spell doesn’t work properly but I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with this.”

At the same time P.O’s appearance flipped over on the spot and changed into Evan’s.

Although it is not completely identical it seems that they have succeeded in somehow imitating the appearance and the atmosphere it gives off.

In Lennok’s eyes he was still not satisfied but Lapard and Gap-seon seemed to feel differently and were looking at Pio with a curious look.

[It’s amazing that it can be imitated to this extent even though it’s called a mutation technique.]

“I see. “It’s somehow similar to that strangely empty atmosphere… It was a much better ability than I thought.”

“Yes but honestly it’s not at the level where I can say it was a success.”

P.O. who was grumbling with Evan’s face waved his arms and legs as if he were embarrassed.

“I don’t know if it’s because the mutation didn’t work properly or because the body synchronization rate is low but my physical abilities are completely trash.”

“….”

“There’s no way Evan’s strength or stamina is at this level so this just means that the natural enemy’s mimicry didn’t work at all… This is the first time I’ve ever known that the failure of the transformation technique had such terrible side effects.”

“….”

“Ugh it’s frustrating to even breathe… I feel like I’m getting more and more tired and damn it… I can’t hold it in for long. “I’ll only use it when I’m acting as bait on behalf of the real Evan.”

Pio without even being conscious of it does not hesitate to reveal Lennok’s low physical ability.

As if he couldn’t hold out for long he hurriedly demutated and returned to his original form grumbling.

He must not have even guessed that this strength and stamina belong to Lennok and he is busy criticizing the side effects of the mutation technique using all kinds of modifiers.

Is it a matter of feeling that somehow Lennok’s heart hurts more every time he hears Pio swearing that it is a side effect of the transformation technique?

However rather than bothering to tell Pio that fact Lennok quietly raised his gaze upward.

“…Then let’s start right away. “I don’t have much time.”

Lennok’s quietly muttering voice felt like it was somehow wet with water.

* * *

Gooooo….

“…I never imagined something like this was possible.”

“I can kind of imagine how Liza feels.”

Rafferd looked out the window blankly and muttered.

“If I could see a view like this it would be worth swimming below sea level.”

A small submersible made by cutting down logs for four people to escape from the law. Outside there is a view of the ocean floor not an island.

Rafferd and Pio create an outline using the logs they brought in and use Lennok’s magic to make it into a moving submersible.

If the declaration of sanctuary embodied in Raphard’s primitive faith is placed inside it those who receive protection will be able to breathe even in a closed space.

Pio muttered as he looked in wonder at the schools of fish swimming in the depths of the sea and the cephalopods fluttering away.

“High-ranking wizards have really unique ideas. “I wonder if this is why they look for wizards so much…”

“There would be no wizard anywhere who would do something like this without borrowing the power of magical engineering.”

Lennok quietly looked away as he watched the two people staring at the outside of the submersible.

It was clear that the various creatures living under the sea were unfamiliar but what caught Lennok’s eyes was a little different.

An upward current of magical energy rising fiercely from the deepest part of the ocean of understanding.

The natural magic power is continuously released into the sea creating a huge waterspout below the sea level.

The sea water rising above the surface creates a magnificent fog and turns the area so hazy that you cannot see an inch in front of you.

An isolated helpless environment where even magical power detection is not effective due to the considerable water fog rising from various parts of the vast sea of ​​understanding and the upward current of magical power.

It cannot be said that there were no environmental factors in the Dominion Navy’s failure to notice the existence of the Far East Branch.

The existence of an overwhelming upward current that pushes the magical energy of the entire ocean above the ground simply by existing in that place.

It wasn’t as if Lennok didn’t wonder what on earth existed under the sea that would cause something like this to happen but now wasn’t the time to worry about it.

“After arriving at the bottom of the island we abandon the submersible and dig in from underground. “There’s not much left so get ready.”

It is not for nothing that we chose the form of a submersible over other methods.

As Gap-seon said if the Far East branch is a moving island there will be facilities for basic living on the island.

Among them the existence of sewage facilities to treat domestic wastewater is inevitable.

No matter how powerful a high-ranking superhuman the existence of facilities to lead a basic life is essential.

And in the case of such a sewer it must be the lower part of the island. It also probably consists of an underground facility that is not easily visible.

Lennok was planning to use a submersible to determine the location of the island’s underground sewer system and go back to infiltrate the Far East branch.

Lennok spoke to Gap-seon who was leaning on one side of the submersible and silently looking out the window.

“If you have difficulty moving in the water it would be better if you tell me in advance. “It would be advisable to borrow the power of Rafferd or P.O to move you.”

[You are definitely different from that man.]

“…what?”

Despite Lennok’s rebuttal Gapseon did not respond.

All I did was point the bright red single-eyed symbol drawn on the amulet mask towards Lennok.

[Clean spirit and attitude excellent barrier techniques and logical ideas… It does not fit at all with the anomalous manipulators we saw in Kaiushu.]

“….”

[The only thing they have in common is that they achieved incredible achievements at a young age… I don’t know how the world is going.]

“I’m probably not the only young wizard in this wide world.”

Lennok answered calmly and instead turned his gaze towards the ship.

“If you came from the West Continent you would know more about that fact than I do.”

[Do you really think so?]

Surprisingly Gap-seon did not remain silent at those words but instead asked Lennok back.

[There may be wizards who have achieved achievements like yours but you probably don’t know that wizards who have achieved achievements like yours are rare.]

“….”

[Satisfying both directions by conducting research and practice in parallel is almost a pipe dream. Most of the countless geniuses find it difficult to achieve even one thing properly.]

I feel like Gap-seon’s gaze which is invisible beyond the talisman mask is shining sharply.

[Solid fundamentals flexible ideas sharp senses and deceptive judgment. It is impossible for a talented magician to hone all of this. At least at your age.]

Only then did Lennok realize what Gap-seon was thinking of him and felt a chill run down his spine.

Even though there is no evidence circumstances personality or talent that match.

Gap-seon was comparing Victor and Evan based on the fact that they had accumulated such skills.

This may be because Gap-seon can use his talisman to check whether the other person has completed the 45-year cycle or not.

In his head he thinks that Victor and Evan are different people but he is not convinced and is quietly looking at Lennok like this.

He quietly asked if it seemed possible to achieve this much at the same age as you.

“….”

It is not wrong to say that he is a famous Gigi even in the Western Continent.

If it weren’t for his memories as Victor Lennok would have dismissed Gap-seon’s words as nonsense.

But knowing that I had to give him a satisfactory answer to his question now.

If Gap-seon did not consider Lennok to be his watcher and ally he could not have predicted how this talisman would turn out at the end of this operation.

And the answer Lennoch chose was very different from what Gap-seon expected.

“It looks like you’re trying to overlap me with someone.”

[….]

Without hesitation he stabs and criticizes the core of Dreyfus’s thoughts.

Rather he slowly stood up as if he was tired of the comparison itself.

“It’s not uncommon. I guess it’s okay. Just make sure we don’t get caught up in sentimentality and fail to do what we need to do.”

Right now Lennok is leading the observers and approaching the church branch but the core of this operation is the Gap Ship.

If Gap-seon had not directly requested it Lennok would not have taken part in this operation.

At the very least one should not let go of responsibility by getting lost in useless thoughts.

Gap-seon too must have remembered that again and nodded with a slightly different attitude.

[Yes that’s right… I’ve decided to stop clinging to irresponsible worries and feats.]

“….”

Lennok did not know what happened before Gapseon accepted Lapis’ offer and became a watcher.

However it is undoubtedly true that his travels while wandering the entire Western Continent are closely related to the inner story.

Thinking so Lennok immediately began making elaborate hand signs with both hands.

“Rafford. “Prepare to lift the sanctuary.”

“…already? Or rather have you already found the location of the sewer?”

“Go up. Be prepared for rising air pressure.”

At that moment the head of the submersible rose upside down from the sea and began to rise rapidly.

Swooooooong….!!

A sudden change in air pressure that caused other observers who were accustomed to the strong pressure under the sea to stumble.

If it were an ordinary human being it wouldn’t be a strange shock for the heart to stop on the spot.

If it weren’t for Lennok’s protection magic and Lapard’s sanctuary declaration technique the submersible would not have survived until now.

“now!”

“I will reap the seeds…!”

With Rafferd’s chant the sanctuary protecting the submarine disappears and the protection is shattered.

At the same time the piece of log that made up the submersible split on both sides in the middle of the sea and water began to fill inside in an instant.

The view seen between the cracked log pieces is the lower part of a magnificent island floating in the sea.

The sight of countless piles of dirt being floated on the territorial waters of the Sea of ​​Understanding and moving little by little as they float.

It also follows the same path as the countless floating islands located in the floating island colony.

An elongated cylinder glowing faintly white among the dirt piles.

The dark red liquid pouring out is mixing with the sea and spreading a hazy water fog.

Lapard and P.O took a deep breath at the same time and without hesitation they immediately threw themselves into the water fog.

Slam!!

Lennok and Dreyfus also went straight up the huge cylindrical sewer protecting themselves with shields and amulets.

Rising up against the flowing current requires a lot of physical strength but the water flowing from inside the sewer is not that strong.

It didn’t take long for the stream of waste to reach a passageway where one could step.

“Pooh!! “I’m holding my breath longer than I thought…”

“Wow what a smell…!!”

Lapard and P.O stand up with their noses wrinkled gagging and making a fuss.

“There are strangely no traces on this side. “Let’s move right away.”

Lastly Pio glanced at Lennok’s words as he rose from the waterway and grunted after checking his whereabouts.

“Damn it it’s just me and Lafferd covered in some weird liquid… and we don’t even have a speck of dust on us.”

Just as P.O said there was a lot of evidence stuck to Rafferd and his body that had come directly from the sewer.

A dark red liquid of unknown origin is stuck to the body unable to come off.

Only Gapseon and Lennok who had surrounded my body with shields and amulets remained unharmed.

Lennok glanced at the two people and answered as they passed by.

“It’s not waste it’s blood. “It must be proof that hundreds of people were killed like rats.”

“Huh? “Is this blood?”

Pio said fiddling with the dark red liquid with a puzzled expression.

It was a shocking explanation but no one here was shocked or inexperienced because of the blood.

Lennok muttered as he walked ahead of Pio.

“I heard that the blood used as a catalyst for magic often deteriorates. “If you think about the denomination’s behavior I think it might be the result.”

There is a high probability that they are simply disposing of the blood shed through human sacrifice.

If the Far East branch has reached the sea of ​​understanding and is fully engaged in human sacrifice what could be the reason?

If it was to confirm the church’s hidden secrets Lennok’s arrival here today would not have been in vain.

“Let’s move quickly. Magic detection doesn’t work well under the water’s surface due to rising air currents. “We need to get to the surface as quickly as possible.”

“….”

“Why is the answer….”

Lennok turned his gaze to the unresponsive observers then fell silent when he saw the scene unfolding behind him.

There seemed to be dozens of priests surrounding the three people pointing sharp spear blades at them.

“I was waiting.”

The sight of Gyogun looking down at the sewer with cold murderous eyes.

“I was just wondering but there really were people crawling into the sewer.”

“Slowly climb up onto the railing and place your hands on your head.”

“…Evan?”

Pio asked Lennok as he obediently raised both hands above his head.

“What should I do?”

There was no answer.

Suddenly!!

The cutting sound that passed between the priests along with the chilling sound of the wind split their bodies in half.

“I don’t know the reason but if I got caught there would be no need to look back.”

Lennok’s eyes shone coldly.

“Change of plan. From now on it will be a battle of speed.”
