    The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 663

    Retribution (5)

    Grunting Dabi stuck his head out and looked around the elevator.

    [Shall we hack the internal equipment one more time?]

    “…wait for a sec.”

    Lennok who was looking at the instrument panel carefully put a hammer to the keyhole located below the elevator button.

    Talk.

    The moment I lightly hit the hammer against the keyhole the shape of the hammer was reassembled and turned into a key.

    “This was it.”

    When I inserted the key and unlocked the door a new button hidden behind the instrument panel was revealed.

    One button with no number or name written on it.

    As soon as Lennok pressed it the elevator started moving again.

    Wow!!

    The elevator door which had stopped at a certain altitude opened revealing a passageway that could accommodate one person.

    The structure is designed to withstand external shocks as the entire passage is plastered with hard alloy.

    That may be why its original form was preserved during the battle between Lennok and the Mechanized Fire Brigade.

    In the huge room located at the end of the passage there was a large glass display case.

    A design model located inside the display case. It looks messy and disorganized as if it hasn’t been properly organized.

    “This is…”

    Lennok who was thinking while looking at the model took out Kaise’s research journal from his arms.

    Lennok who was comparing the blueprint drawn at the end of the journal with the room model slowly opened the display case and began to touch the model.

    “The specific proportions are different from the design drawings but there are some rules. If we organize compatible patterns and match the model diagram maybe….”

    Grumbling!!

    At that moment the shape of the room where Lennok was standing began to change to resemble the shape of the model.

    The shape of the room where all kinds of mechanical parts are assembled from all directions rise up change shape and change into a smooth metal cavity.

    The blueprint left in Kaise’s research log was not intended to find a place like this.

    On the contrary it was a message to assemble the shape of a room like this using the blueprint as a key.

    And a dark silver metal body that is assembled according to the design drawing and slowly rises from the other side of the disappeared model stand.

    A metal object shaped like a door frame is floating quietly in the middle of the room.

    [What is this?]

    Dabi tilted his head as if he didn’t understand even after seeing it in person.

    [For something left behind by an organism called Kaysera it’s not very intuitive…]

    “There’s a message here.”

    Below it there were a few messages written roughly like someone had scrawled them.

    [An item made by persuading Hwadeokjin and refining the failed illusion. One of the project’s testbed candidates.]

    [He gained cooperation through several transactions but he seems to have no regrets about life. I don’t think we’ll ever meet again.]

    [As it is predicted that future adjustments will be difficult anyone involved in the project who has obtained this item should secure only the dragon heart and discard it.]

    As expected what was hidden here was an arrangement to prepare a new test bed for the project.

    Kaise Bajur created this object with the help of the Furnace Jingun when he was alive and hid it here.

    However at that point did they predict that Hwadeokjingun would not survive for long and left a message for the project officials?

    That sharp intuition and judgment that transcends time was the Kaise that Lennok knew.

    There’s just one problem –

    “It’s the heart of a dragon….”

    Knowledge of the old world that the Side Squad agents wanted to obtain in exchange for the Hammer of the Furnace Jin during the assassination of Narcissa Solmer.

    It was overlooked but does that mean that the item was also related to the Black Consumer Project?

    So how did Side Squad find out about this and try to obtain the item?

    Side Squad. Or there are project officials within Ex Machina.

    Perhaps that person may have been among the committee members whom Lennok had taken hostage.

    “….”

    Should we turn Ex Machina over once more and interrogate them one by one?

    However as soon as Lennok came up with the idea he thought it was unlikely to be realized.

    Even so it would be difficult to catch up if he went on a rampage against Ex Machina while the entire Machine City was under surveillance.

    Moreover if you act hastily now that your condition has not fully recovered there is a high possibility that you will only suffer losses.

    The best thing to do is to bury it for now and visit Machina again later to find out the relevant circumstances.

    “Is it all over once I get this frame?…”

    [Master did you find out what this door frame is?]

    When Jin-eun’s floating door frame is pulled out with his hand the door frame separated into four pieces folds weakly into Lennok’s hand.

    Lennok answered by folding it one by one.

    “I confirmed before that the heart of the dragon was a legacy from the old world. But Kaise told me to secure it through this door frame.”

    […right?]

    “The fact that the Hwadeok Jin Army created this door frame and the reason why Kaise requested cooperation. “Considering that it was a new test bed candidate there is only one possibility.”

    Lennok who had completely erased any remaining messages raised his gaze.

    “This is a new simple Ascension Gate itself created by miniaturizing the Ascension Gate’s capabilities to the limit.”

    Lennok’s eyes sank deeply as he looked into the huge metallic cavity.

    “Kaise predicted the failure of the Ascension Gate project decades ago and attempted to use it as a test bed for the project by reducing its capabilities.”

    It is different from the temporary Ascension Gate that Lennok forcibly opened using the power of the magnetic realm.

    The foundation of the gate created by miniaturizing the principle of the Ascension Gate in reality.

    Kaise persuaded Hwadeokjingun who created the foundation of the Ascension Gate to create a miniaturized artifact that could contain the abilities of the Ascension Gate.

    Wasn’t it an intention to apply the inquiry’s ability to the project and use the void of the old world as a test bed to rewind infinite failure?

    “That’s probably why they left a message saying that the dragon’s heart could be secured here. But there is one difference…”

    Lennok chuckled.

    “The fact is that I hold both the Ascension Gate’s opening code and its core system structure in my hands.”

    Unlike other project officials Lennok can open the void of the old world on his own with the power of the Simple Ascension Gate without enlisting the help of the Furnace Advance.

    Even if it is not possible right now all the necessary preparations are in place.

    If the joint work between Kaise and Hwadeokjingun was made properly it was only a matter of time before it could be recreated.

    “Let’s go back. “I’m done with everything here.”

    Lennok left the room without hesitation got into the elevator pressed the button and nodded.

    “Go back to the Balkans research and create a simple Ascension Gate and investigate the dragon’s heart inside it. “The traces of the project left behind by Kaise lead in that direction.”

    * * *

    Machina Special Prison Facility Supreme Control Room.

    Hundreds of screens switch quickly circuits connect everywhere and guidance sounds sound.

    Conversely none of the people standing in the control room could open their mouths.

    bang!!

    The door opened roughly and the shoulders of the soldiers standing guard twitched greatly.

    The executioners who had been lingering around for a while also looked back at the door with stiff expressions.

    “I am Commissioner Narcissa….”

    Narcissa Solmer in a wheelchair came in with a murderous expression on her face.

    One difference is that unlike when I came alone this time I came with dozens of private soldiers.

    She asked looking around with a sad expression.

    “What about fastness?”

    “It is believed that the last sighting was near the defense tower in Hwadeokjin County.”

    “calculation?”

    Everyone fell silent at Narcissa’s cold retort.

    “We couldn’t even properly confine a wizard who collapsed from injury and exhaustion. “It’s not tracking or capturing it’s estimation?”

    “…This guy tampered with the security system. “They interfered with the database of medical equipment brought in for research destroying their authority.”

    The doctors were also unable to say anything and were sweating profusely.

    As a result it is an undeniable fact that their demands and mistakes influenced the group’s escape.

    “If he had cut off the handcuffs or used magic it would have been easy to trace his location…”

    “I guess the patient’s clothes also have a location tracker in them?”

    “…I don’t think it’s working.”

    “okay. “I understand.”

    Narcissa looked back at the soldiers with an expressionless face.

    “So you’re saying that he escaped the prison facility wearing handcuffs made of magic-blocking metal wearing a hospital gown and without even using magic.”

    “…..”

    “Are you guys really out of your mind? “Did you really not know what would happen if additional casualties occurred due to this situation?”

    “No shame.”

    “ha….”

    After sighing and finally catching her breath Narcissa quickly came to her senses and asked.

    “They said it was presumed to have been seen near the workshop tower. “Even though you know that why haven’t you identified the location yet?”

    “The abilities of Aoshu Spero the superpower who cooperated with us to resolve this situation have run out of control making it difficult to approach.”

    “…Spero? “Are you talking about the Spero I know?”

    One of the executioners a middle-aged man who looked older nodded with a solemn expression.

    “Because so many high-level superhumans clashed it was difficult to confirm the situation in detail.”

    “No matter what are you asking for cooperation from a traitor who went over to Gearside?”

    “There was a strong demand from the Steel Heart members.”

    Although Gearside’s leader died in a foreign land and their legacy ended they were one of the most dangerous researchers who rebelled against Machina.

    Now that the organization has been disbanded the remaining forces have created their own forces and are wielding power in the shadows.

    Level 8 psychometric psychic. Aoshu Spero known as Mastermind was also one of those shadowy monsters.

    “ha….”

    Due to the suicide of Hermes the city is in disarray and control is scattered and shaken here and there.

    Apart from Narcissa trying to control the situation the other members of Ex Machina also try to control the situation by acting according to their own standards.

    Narcissa massaged her temples as if she was in pain and opened her mouth as she looked at the prison screen.

    “First contact the committee member who gave the order to the scene and call everyone involved here. From now until the location of the fastness is specified no one will-”

    Narcissa who was quickly checking the screen soon stopped talking.

    “…Commissioner Solmer? “Why are you doing that?”

    The other enforcers and agents who turned their heads to follow the direction of the gaze were also at a loss for words.

    Room 6 the deepest part of the special detention facility was empty at the same time as Fast escaped.

    The image of a young man wearing a hospital gown and handcuffs was shown on the screen.

    Lennok sitting on the bed and calmly waving his hand at the screen.

    I felt so comfortable as if I had been there from the beginning as if the current confusion was a lie.

    The sight of an escaped convict returning to the prison facility as if nothing had happened even after turning the entire city upside down.

    No one in the control room could easily open their mouths.
