Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 60



In this operation, leaving Hina to lead the team, the four immediately split into two groups and rushed into different buildings.

Hina’s voice rang out in the ears of Lennok who cast a floating spell on his shoes and easily climbed over to the low building.

[half.]

“I’m listening.”

[There is one thing I didn’t tell those three people earlier.]

“what?”

[Do not keep the encryption key until the end fight moderately and then retreat.]

“……..”

[We need to make them escape with the encryption key.]

To Hina’s words Lennok did not respond immediately but just shook his head.

If I had been thinking of entrusting this kind of appropriate work it would have been better to have used another freelancer rather than him.

But even so the reason she bothers to add it at this point is probably because what she says now has an important meaning in the operation.

“You’ve already tampered with the encryption key?”

[Yes. Because we couldn’t determine which data was the encryption key we completely destroyed all the databases in this building. You are quick-witted.]

“Are you planning to use the dummy as a clue to track the location of the opponent’s base and attack them all at once?”

[If a powerful wizard like Ban is guarding this place the enemies will not even question the authenticity of the encryption key.]

“Everything was already planned from the moment we received the information. Is this how all agents handle their work?”

An espionage ability that digs into the opponent’s organization and directly obtains information. Amazing execution power enough to change the database of every server in a 20-story building.

It’s so skillful and amazing that it’s hard to believe that they’re using an outsider to carry out the operation.

Perhaps because they were experts in this area from the beginning they were thorough enough to be on a different level from Dike’s handling of the work.

And Lennok’s alertness was gradually increasing.

‘Don’t be mistaken.’

The agents were not allies from the beginning and cannot become allies.

We just happened to collaborate thanks to a unique relationship with Evelyn.

The city hounds were never Lennok’s close friends.

‘For now let’s focus on work.’

Open the rooftop door go down and immediately pass through the narrow hallway.

The shared office that Hina mentioned was located on the 17th floor.

As he walked down the cold empty room with no one in sight Lennok slowly raised his magic power.

Ugh..!

A slow rotating sound coming from inside the body.

As if slowly warming up an engine it pumps out magical power to cover the entire building at once sweeping away all traces of it.

Huh!

“……..”

Lennok closed his eyes for a moment took in the incoming information and nodded.

“Approximately fifteen people came upstairs through the emergency exit on the third floor.”

[It has begun.]

“Seven are climbing the stairs four are taking the elevator and the remaining three… are climbing the exterior wall of the building. “Is it really necessary to do this?”

Even if you think about it from the opponent’s perspective from the perspective of dividing forces and secretly targeting this side getting on the outer wall is a handshake.

There would be no benefit in showing it outside clinging to the glass wall like a leech.

It is impossible to climb the outer wall to the 17th floor without the benefit being greater than the loss…

“Oh I understand.”

Before Hina could respond Lennok quickly found the answer.

“It was camouflage. Are you assimilating yourself to those around you in some way?”

[……..]

“The movement of the magical power itself is smooth so I don’t think they used any magic… In that case it’s probably magic engineering.”

After answering his own question Lennok opened the window in the hallway wide and muttered.

“It doesn’t matter anyway.”

Slam!

At the same time as he said that a long metallic object protruded from his waist.

Although it has the shape of a revolver its muzzle is much longer and thicker than the products Lennok had previously used.

The modification of the revolver entrusted to Palmer was finally completed and new auxiliary equipment was obtained.

The modification of the shotgun has not been completed yet so I had no choice but to get the revolver first but it is enough to test out the new equipment.

Shit!!

Faced with the cold wind pouring in from the window Lennok loaded bullets into the cylinder and built up magical power.

[Aim correction]

[Heat ray tracking]

[3-point shooting]

Woooooooooo!!!!

As soon as he finished chanting three bright red lines extended from the muzzle of the gun and scanned the exterior wall of the building.

As soon as the red line was in place and fixed Lennok pulled the trigger.

Ta-ta-tang!!

One shot. However three flames erupted from the muzzle.

Join our discord and ping me to update more chapters. Discord: https://discord.gg/93rmBjgP6B

Three shooting bullets each with different trajectories move along the red heat ray and pierce the invisible air.

Kwasik!

The noise of flesh and muscle crushing.

Lennok immediately turned around after seeing blood spraying in the air and three corpses falling from the outer wall of an invisible building.

“First of all three people.”

[It’s going smoothly. The other side also succeeded in blocking the initial entry.]

Secondly there is no need to tell which ladder to kick down.

Lennok standing in front of an elevator that was rapidly increasing the numbers placed his hand on the button.

If you don’t have any knowledge or experience Lennok will have some trouble but if you have the understanding of magic engineering you learned in the process of opening Cigar Bang’s safe operating the elevator is not difficult.

The magical power that flows from the button approaches through the electric wire and instantly cuts off the power.

In the process the spare power supply of the safety device that was supposed to operate automatically was destroyed and the elevator which had come to a halt on the 15th floor began to fall.

Lennok nodded after seeing the three vital reactions from inside the elevator who were panicking and knocking on the door.

Those with physical abilities would be able to escape by breaking the elevator door on the way but if they were magicians there wouldn’t be many holes to escape through.

Now all that’s left are the seven people coming up the stairs.

Perhaps because his colleagues realized that he was being attacked his speed increased considerably.

At this rate they would open the emergency exit door and storm into the hallway within 30 seconds.

I was lost in thought as I stared at the tightly closed iron door.

As Hina said in order to avoid raising suspicion that the encryption key has been changed to dummy data you must fight appropriately before handing over the encryption key.

‘It’s difficult.’

It would be easier to forcefully press down from the front but even Lennok would not be able to predict whether to control the force while dealing with the opponent and then pretend to have the encryption key taken away unintentionally.

How much acting do you have to do to fool the other person?

Hina probably passed out other freelancers for this reason and entrusted the job to the wizard Lennok…

I felt like I could do anything only after checking the other person’s face.

Kwaaaang!!

As soon as I could finish my thoughts smoke rose from inside the iron door and the door burst open like an explosion.

Seven people running into the hallway at the same time.

The two in front have strong physiques one is holding a shield and each is holding a large-diameter energy gun and behind them are three riflemen assisting in the breakthrough.

And one magician and one swordsman standing at the very back.

Although everyone is wearing masks to cover their faces they cannot hide the force of magical power flowing out.

Except for the two superhumans at the back the rest were not worth worrying about.

Rather others who saw Lennok’s appearance heightened their senses and began to carefully form their formation.

The magician standing at the very back spoke softly.

“Everyone focus.”

“…….”

“This is an incredibly high level gunner. Considering that they hacked the elevator and caused it to crash they are probably supported by hackers. You must process it as quickly as possible and remove it before tampering with the encryption key.”

Lennok who was preparing for battle chuckled inadvertently at the words that were completely different from what he had expected.

bait

It’s not strange that people don’t know that Lennok did all this on his own but the fact that Lennok was mistaken for Gunner was very impressive.

I don’t know what method was used but it seemed like the magician had seen Lennok deal with those stuck to the outer wall.

This would be proof that the new shooting assist magic [Heat Ray Tracking] and [3-Point Shooting] were felt as a threat to those around them.

As I lifted the revolver in my hand I felt the other person visibly flinch.

Lennok laughed at that sight twisted the muzzle and pulled the trigger.

Not towards the person maintaining the formation in front but towards the floor and walls of the hallway.

[Ricochet Shot]

Ta-ta-tang!!

One crash. Due to the repulsion force the ejected bullet rotates randomly and pierces human flesh with a part other than the head.

There was no need to say who the target was.

“Ahhhh!!”

“All legs…!!”

I saw the muzzle flame rising in the darkness but I guess I never thought Lennok would use a ricochet.

In an instant the three riflemen standing behind the two giants fell each clutching a part of their body.

Cold ice was rising from their bodies as if pure white flowers had bloomed freezing their bodies little by little.

The enchantment [Freeze Order] engraved on the bullet.

The ricochet with the added freezing effect has already far surpassed the power of a simple shot.

The eyes of the magician and the swordsman who lost all three of their strength in an instant completely changed.

As if they were waiting for that moment the two giants standing in front rushed towards Lennok at the same time.

“Kaaaa!!!”

A giant wielding a shield like a blunt weapon and a colleague charging an energy gun behind him.

The magician behind him starts muttering and chanting and the swordsman slowly begins to walk while holding his sword.

Lennok took in the sight of those four people in one glance and immediately moved.

[Upper Ground]

Kwaaaang!!

“Keuuk…!!”

The hallway floor suddenly rose up from under the giant’s feet as he was charging his energy gun pinning him to the ceiling.

The energy gun fell from his hand and landed on the back of the giant who was swinging the shield burning the giant’s shoulder.

“Aaaaaaa!!”

The moment when the struggle of the giant who was rolling on the floor while crying in pain and the two people who were struggling with only their necks hanging from the ceiling became calm.

The swordsman emerged from the chaotic atmosphere and fired a beam of light straight at Lennok’s chest.

Sigh!!

A clean and accurate blow.

I don’t know much about swords but I’m sharp enough to notice that there’s no unnecessary stuff.

But because of that it wasn’t difficult to break it.

Woooo!!

As pressure was applied to the swordsman’s wrist due to magical interference the blade’s trajectory twisted strangely and narrowly avoided Lennok who was standing right in front of him.

The swordsman’s shoulders were clearly shaken by the strange sensation of his hands moving as they pleased.

Kwaaaa!!

Lennok who did not miss the opportunity planted shock magic on the swordsman’s back.

I turn my head leaving behind the image of the prosecutor who flew across the hallway.

The series of processes was completed so quickly that the chanting that the magician was preparing was not even completed yet.

Lennok who was staring at the magician asked.

“I don’t think he’s a warlock but what is his faction?”

“Fuck you…..”

The radiance of magical power rising from both hands of the magician is clearly different from the sticky negative magical energy that Lennok is familiar with.

They said he joined hands with a terrorist organization but is he a magician working for that organization?

Actually I wasn’t that curious but there was a reason why Lennok suddenly stopped fighting and started talking.

The magician must have noticed this so he quietly canceled the ceremony and answered the question obediently.

“…..It is a shock series. But it looks like they also use shock magic.”

They say shock-type magic is popular here and that doesn’t seem to be wrong.

This was the first time I encountered the same type of wizard twice including the wizard I met when requesting a pharmaceutical company.

Still he seemed to have realized that the magic he had just unleashed on the swordsman was similar to the magic he was using.

“I just learned it by looking over my shoulder.”

“…A gunner like you? That’s nonsense. No it wasn’t even a gunner in the first place.”

Only then did the wizard’s eyes become clearer as if he had come to his senses to some extent in this confusing situation.

“Who are you? I’ve never heard of a wizard like this among the freelancers in the 40th district.”

“hmm….”

Lennok was not someone with a strong desire to show off so much so that he asked if he had ever heard of the name Van.

When Lennok could not easily answer the wizard said with a chuckle.

“Looking at that reaction it’s clear that he’s not just a freelancer. Okay then how about this?”

“what?”

“I don’t know how much money you were paid to get into this but I’ll give you double that amount. So help us get out of this place safely.”

“…………”

“That’s all you have to do until you leave Area 41. There is a vehicle waiting outside to help us escape so just escorting it is enough.”

Instead of answering Lennok crossed his arms and tilted his head.

No matter how much it was just a ploy to waste time he wasn’t a very nervous person to suggest something like this to him here.

If a member of an organization who is not even the head of the organization appears like this there must be a good reason…

“I don’t know how much money you have to make this offer.”

When Lennok asked quietly the wizard immediately took the bait.

“of course. I can’t go into detail but soon a huge amount of money will be flowing into the organization. It would be enough money to completely change the foundation of the organization. It is certainly not difficult to recruit excellent personnel like you.”

“…..Can you say that to me now?”

Lennok responded with an expression of bewilderment confident in his heart.

‘I’m sure. It’s a Reisen story.’

The city council senator’s slush fund that the warlock is said to know about.

Unless they decided to join hands with a terrorist organization and share part of the money there is no way this answer could be given.

The wizard responded to Lennok’s words with a meaningful smile.

“That’s right… I have no intention of giving you a single penny that’s right…!!”

“…………”

Is it finally over now?

As Lennok thought so he slowly turned his head.

The prosecutor who had been hit by the shock spell and flew behind Lennok was coming out of the office with something that looked like a USB port.

“Run away!!”

The moment their eyes met the magician screamed and the swordsman turned his back and ran away like lightning.

Kwakwakwak!!

The magician is trying to kill time by suddenly firing a shock spell at Lennok as if he had been waiting for this moment.

Seeing the magician’s appearance the prosecutor wiped his eyes with one hand and boldly threw himself through a nearby window.

Wow!!

The shadow of the prosecutor quickly disappearing below the 17th floor.

Lennok who witnessed that miserable camaraderie with his own eyes made a bewildered expression.

“…What are you guys doing now?”

“Ah as long as I can steal the encryption key that’s enough… I have no more regrets.”

“……..”

Lennok couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw the magician holding his trembling hands and closing his eyes as if waiting for the approaching end.

It seems that they were thinking of a diversionary operation as soon as they judged that it would be difficult to properly deal with them from the front.

What kind of facial expression would this guy make if he found out that all those moments had actually happened according to Lennok’s intentions?

[You escaped safely. It’s perfect to see that location tracking is being done in real time. Thank you for your hard work.]

Lennok asked while listening to Hina’s satisfied voice.

“I caught a terrorist organization master what should I do?”

“…….!”

Although he can’t see it cold sweat begins to form on the wizard’s forehead as if he overheard that this moment is the moment that decides his life or death.

[Hmm… since the purpose here has been achieved it doesn’t really matter. If you want to kill me do whatever you want.]

“What do you think of me?”

Lennok is not a blood-crazed killer or a crazy person who enjoys the thrill of fighting.

He is only doing this because it is necessary and because it is the most efficient and risk-free.

If he had been handling this request alone it would have been difficult to deal with it even if he had been kept alive so I would have just killed him but it is different now that he has the backing of an agent.

Wow!!

When the magician hits the back of the head with shock magic he immediately closes his eyes and collapses.

“I knocked him out so take him to me. “Do whatever you want whether you interrogate me or not.”

[Hmm… this is a bit surprising.]

“what?”

[no. Then we will take care of the rest. In any case you should have restored the internal network that was damaged in the process of modifying the encryption key. Once you leave the operational areaㅡ]

Quaaaaaaa!!

An intense explosion sound fills the earphones.

Hina wondered if she had been attacked but soon realized it was a noise coming through the window and turned her head.

A 30-story trade center that served as an operational staging area.

Bright red flames were dripping like blood from the building where the three freelancers excluding Lennok had decided to join forces.

The firepower is strong enough to brighten up the night sky in an instant.

The fact that this happened right after the prosecutor had succeeded in escaping with the encryption key certainly did not bode well for this side.

After a moment of silence Hina’s voice became heavier and louder.

[….You got hit.]

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

“It’s probably ours.”

[It seems like there was a talented person hiding over there just in case. It seems like this was done to safely escape the forces that attacked the Trade Center after stealing the encryption key… It’s more than expected.]

“How about contact with other team members?”

[It is disconnected. Since they still have vital reactions it is assumed that all of them are engaged in battle.]

“Whoa….”

Lennok lifted his left wrist letting the smoke in his mouth flow out the window.

The watch given to me by Agria naturally turns into a telescope helping Lennok secure his vision.

As I looked inside the Trade Center with one eye through the telescope and continued to use magic detection I began to picture the situation to some extent.

The opponents are one magician and one warrior.

If you look at it closely it is the same superhuman composition as the place Lennok was in charge of but the level is on a different level even if you just glance at it from a distance.

It seems that the warrior and the magician from the terrorist organization were mobilized by the warlock and they were pushing the three to an almost overwhelming level.

While the blunt giant and the young man with flamethrower skills are somehow holding on in front of them the woman is holding two blades and somehow trying to find an opening but she doesn’t seem to be even an opponent in close combat.

A man accelerating while furiously emitting steam from both arms modified with unknown mechanical devices.

Lennok’s eyes naturally sank as he saw the incredible speed that could not be caught with the naked eye.

“……..”

I asked leisurely taking my gaze away from the telescope.

“Shouldn’t we intervene slowly? “If you are supervising an operation it seems important to manage your team members.”

[…….]

Hina does not bring up the story to Lennok first.

First operation. This is also a collaboration that was barely achieved through Evelyn’s cooperation.

Her feeling of not wanting to hand over the initiative is understandable.

However there was no reason for Lennok to be the first to express regret.

If we had to be honest it wouldn’t be Hina who should be the first to lose here.

A moment of silence. However in the end the side that raised the white flag was decided.

[……My skills are not suitable for this situation. Rather it is more likely to become a hindrance.]

“I see.”

Lennok answered happily.

“so?”

[Just wait a little while and reinforcements will arrive. I hope you can take your time until then. These are very valuable forces to lose in just one operation.]

It’s not wrong.

They were just having a hard time because an unexpectedly powerful enemy had appeared but the team members struggling over there were clearly capable people of great skill even to Lennok.

To be honest they are skilled at the level of mounts that I encountered during my meeting with Madame.

No matter what if you keep it alive it’s enough to be helpful in some way.

After finishing the calculation Lennok stood up.

“Do you know which account their success rewards should be put into?”

[Of course.]

Those words were enough.

Lennok immediately turned his back and headed towards the hallway.

Support fire

A magician fainted after being suppressed by him and other fighters groaned in pain next to him.

The various types and sizes of equipment they brought were scattered on the floor.

Lennok looked around found the item he wanted and immediately picked it up.

A long rifle carried by a rifleman.

It wasn’t intentional but in the current situation there is nothing else like this.

Lennok who had difficulty carrying the slightly heavy rifle to the window fixed the muzzle and slowly placed the butt on his shoulder.

“Whoa…”

It’s not a familiar feeling but it’s not an unfamiliar feeling either. It reminded me of the military.

Although it may not be a good memory it naturally reminds me of the Earth.

A longing that suddenly appears when you least expect it.

I forced myself to shake it off and adjusted my posture.

Although he obtained equipment with a long muzzle Lennok knows well the range of the rifle.

It has already been confirmed several times that even in a world where magic engineering exists the specifications and abilities of the gun itself are no different from what Lennok knew.

You can’t reach that building simply with this rifle’s specifications alone.

In that case you just build up the magic.

[Aim correction = Step 2]

[Distance amplification]

[Concentrated fire]

Woooooo!!

There are only three types of auxiliary magic assembled. However the power and level of each one is clearly different from the previous one.

The bright blue magical light slowly blinked wrapping around the muzzle and drawing a faint spiral.

firing.

Taaaang!!

As soon as the trigger is pulled a bullet jumps out piercing the frozen air and crossing between the two high-rise buildings.

A small metal body rotating on a steel wire. The vertices that converge to one point move forward without any disturbance.

It struck the temple of the man who was running forward with his eyes wide open.

Kwaang!!

Lennok who saw that the man’s body fell to the side due to the unexpected shock immediately turned his gun.

The next target is the magician behind him looking out of the building with a bewildered expression. The magic combination is the same as before.

Reload and fire at high speed.

Taaaang!!

It was a blow that even physically capable warriors could not react to.

However the magician succeeded in blocking it by raising a black flaccid wall.

The five senses stretched to the limit through magical power detection. The reaction speed that results from this is temporary but it also exceeds that of a person with physical abilities.

The same principle that allowed Lennok to compete against a warrior like Beck Clinton.

A smile naturally formed on my face.

“It’s fun.”

The ensuing battle is a simple repetitive process.

Load trigger. Load trigger.

Although the functionality and efficiency have been greatly improved the shooting auxiliary magic still consumes less magic compared to general common magic so there is no burden on Lennok.

You shoot and spit and when you run out of bullets you replace it and when the barrel heats up you pick up another gun.

One or two sniping shots from a long distance can be easily deflected but how many people can endure a series of such powerful attacks?

Usually those who specialize in sniping tend to incur various penalties in exchange for their strong one-shot power but this does not apply to Lennok who overcomes all of those shortcomings with his overflowing talent.

‘Especially in this situation.’

Rennok knowing that such a situation was not common in battles with superhumans pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

A somewhat heterogeneous combat environment between two buildings.

The three freelancers we were dealing with earlier.

Regardless of whether you have sniping ability or not a situation as comfortable as this does not come easily.

So all I can do is enjoy it while I can.

Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!!!

Empty it out.

The bullets which could not even pass by Lennok’s coat in the hands of the riflemen flew through the night sky in a cloud of bright blue light and hit the terrorists.

The freelancers who did not miss the opportunity also gritted their teeth convinced that the support coming from long distances was from their allies.

It is natural for the battle to be prolonged.

And finally Hina’s voice arrived through the four people’s earphones.

[Get ready.]

A slightly excited voice that wasn’t like her I’ve ever seen before.

However Lennok did not miss the faint feeling of fear mixed in between them.

[Just once after 10 seconds. Support arrives here. At that time the match will be concluded.]

“What kind of bullshit is that…!!”

5 seconds pass while he speaks and then 3 seconds goes by when the irritated flame-thrower shouts.

And before the remaining two seconds passed something appeared from beyond the distant sky.

Squirt…!!

A flowing noise that pierces the wind.

It is a ray of black flash that looks down at the ground while swimming in a serious yet elegant manner.

Lennok silently raised his head and confirmed the identity of the ‘support’.

The wide-ranging sense of magic sharply captures the target.

The length is around 8m. The diameter is 10cm.

Surrounded by magic power as black as pitch black. However unlike the warlocks it is not sticky but is infinitely pure and dry.

A single spear that looks like it was made by finely grinding the shadow.

‘No… considering it was shot this far is it an arrow?’

Hyeonggung (玄弓).

Before I could fully understand the two letters that passed through my mind.

A black spear flew several kilometers straight through the Trade Center.

Kwajijijijijijik!!!

Pry and twist to pull it out.

The moment it pierced the building the black flash unraveled like a skein of thread instantly covering and tying up the upper floors of the building.

The trade center has been transformed into a round sphere with a stick inserted into it like a matchstick.

At the same time that Lennok shook his head after seeing the sight Hina’s voice rang out from the earphones.

[Agent Evelyn Marcia’s assistance arrives.]

[Successful capture of the enemy. Operation completed.]

widely!

Lennok roughly threw the rifle he was holding on the floor and stood up.

I rubbed out the burning tobacco and took out another one.

Eyes are still focused on the Trade Center.

Although his facial expression is indifferent the thoughts swirling inside him are extremely complex.

‘Eveline Marcia… I thought it was a monster but it was beyond my imagination.’

I had an idea of ​​what it was like when it was called Black Bow but I never thought it would be like this.

It is surprising that a sniper shot fired from a distance of several kilometers was successful in just one attempt but the target was not a single target but an entire space occupied.

This is a technology that is hard to believe even when you see it in person.

An application technique that cannot even be attempted without a vast image that encompasses the natural supernatural power she is said to have as well as her frighteningly sophisticated magic manipulation ability.

I couldn’t even feel her presence but I’m sure.

Evelyn Marcia was indeed a superhuman who deserved to be treated on an equal footing with the crocodile giant.

‘We have to go up quickly.’

Now even after seeing the art of a distant monster Lenok feels thorough analysis and evaluation not fear or awe.

And only a small admiration.

Although we have a cooperative relationship for a while it is meaningless to clearly distinguish Pia from this floor.

If you had a high level of power it was right for the arrowhead to prepare for and devote yourself to the moment.

The smoke filled with the lungs lightly moved to the stairs.

Anyway everything to do today is over.

All that remains is the calculation of performance and conservatives.

And it was just to hear and prepare for what to do in the next operation.
