    Lennok also cast a floating spell on his shoes and flew downward.

    Kwaaaa!!

    A spacious hallway visible as soon as you land on the dark floor.

    Unlike the shabby scenery above ground the hallway inside the crack was neatly trimmed and the walls were solidly made of iron plates.

    Even at a glance you can tell that this is a facility that someone artificially created.

    Lennok nodded at the traces of dark magical power he felt as soon as he came down.

    ‘It appears that a barrier was placed between the top and bottom of the ground to prevent magic from leaking out.’

    Looking at the burnt corpses scattered around it looks like they were hit by Lennok’s fireball while defending the entrance to the main base…

    There was no time to be lost in thought.

    Doo doo doo doo doo!!!

    After confirming that the intruders had entered the underground through a huge crack in the road members of the Falcion organization immediately began pouring bullets at them.

    “Holy shit!!”

    Even if you are a superhuman who can strengthen your body with magical power you will inevitably suffer damage if you are exposed to a bullet with your bare body.

    However as if to prove that they were a group of experienced people Lennok’s surrounding freelancers quickly destroyed nearby walls and floors to create their own cover and began to avoid the barrage of bullets.

    “Come in this way!!”

    “There is no need for that.”

    It’s a joke!!

    [Thunder Flower]

    The bundle of lightning that Lennok threw into the air swept through the underground hallway and shot forward at once.

    A lump of electricity stopped at a crossroads in a hallway that split into three directions spinning on the spot and starting to bloom with a bright blue electric current.

    Crash!!

    Quaaaaaaa!!

    “Kaaaaaa!!”

    “The magic wizard is with you!! “It wasn’t a bomb!”

    “It looks like the person with the ability to manipulate magic hasn’t appeared over there yet.”

    Everyone was convinced by what Chen muttered.

    Anyone who deals with magic would not even think about saying that he thought it was a bomb even when he saw the fireball that Lennok shot out.

    Hina said as she placed her hand on the katana hanging on her waist.

    “Let’s organize it quickly and dig inside. The goal is to confirm the locations of Zaun Odis and Craig. Immediately afterward we will clear a path so that Cheysha and other latecomers can enter.”

    There is no reason to wait quietly now that both sides’ attacks have lulled with [Thunder Flower].

    Wow!!

    “Aaaah!!”

    “He’s a magical magic user!! Request support!”

    Hina who took out a long sword from her waist jumped down the hallway with the 1st Division and swept away the remaining members of Falsion.

    A strange yet horrifying flash of light completely different from anything that had been seen before illuminated the dark basement.

    As the distance increases voices begin to come through the earphones.

    [The goal is to divide the forces of the 1st and 2nd Divisions to find as many targets as possible. The 3rd and 4th divisions will deal with the members escaping outside so leave them alone and focus on digging into the base. Then let’s go!]

    Chen’s speaking style was calm yet fast and clear enough for the listener to understand at once.

    A talent that can moderately elevate people is an even rarer talent than the combat ability of a simple superhuman.

    Even in this chaotic situation he was demonstrating his leadership skills to the fullest.

    Although the plan had already been shared in advance Lennok knew how important it was to give the team a refresher before they got caught up in the excitement of battle and forgot their original goal.

    The freelancers followed Chen’s words and formed groups of three or four and immediately began escaping one by one whenever the road diverged.

    After seeing them Lennok and Hina each chose one side of the hallway and walked down.

    Lennok spoke into his earphones as he watched them disappear one by one down the hallway.

    “Find a way down to the basement as much as possible check the places where people are crowded and then go back. “Do not fight in useless places.”

    As a result of confirmation through magic detection Falcion’s main base is made up of dozens of narrow corridors extending like an anthill excluding the huge underground cavity located at the bottom.

    ‘It’s an ant cave so I can roughly guess the reason.’

    A structure that allows the construction of underground space by maximizing the use of scarce resources.

    In addition it has the added effect of making intruders lose their way and wandering while making hit-and-run guerilla warfare easier for gang members who are familiar with the layout of the main base’s hallways.

    This is an optimal structure for a terrorist organization like now who does not know when their base will be attacked and they will have to relocate.

    While Lennok extended his magic sense and continued to concentrate his mind to determine the locations of Zaun Odis and Craig.

    From afar I felt a clear sign of magical power passing through the hallway and quickly approaching here.

    Suddenly!

    “Ugh!!”

    “It’s the enemy!!”

    “Blade….Ugh!!”

    In an instant blood spurted from the shoulders of the two freelancers who were moving with Lennok and one person’s head was cut off and bounced into the air.

    The three remaining people quickly gathered around Lennok but were helpless as they were struck by the flash of light moving back and forth as if bouncing off the walls and ceiling of the hallway.

    “……..”

    Lennok frowned and watched the movement closely.

    Ride ride!!

    Five leaps fired both at the ceiling and the hallway floor.

    Every time you take a step the speed does not decrease but rather accelerates faster.

    The moment when the flash of light which ran without paying attention to direction or reaction turned its head three more times.

    Someone holding a sharp blade was sitting right behind Lennok.

    “half!!”

    Kwaaaa!!

    As if he had been waiting Lennok cast reverse gravity magic on the spot and struck shock magic on both sides creating a huge wave but the man holding the sword leisurely slipped through the gap and rushed towards Lennok.

    Lennok pulled up his shield and took out his revolver but the swordsman twisted his knee and changed direction in an instant as if he had been waiting for that moment.

    ‘This is…!’

    Lennok who only then realized the man’s intention frowned faintly but the remaining freelancers had already stopped breathing.

    Lennok muttered while staring at the swordsman who was slowly increasing the distance between him.

    “You didn’t plan on targeting me from the beginning.”

    “I was waiting for the day we could meet again.”

    The swordsman mutters while calmly adjusting his sword.

    The night we met at the Trade Center.

    This was the guy who wiped away his tears and ran away with the encryption key leaving the wizard behind.

    Lennok checked to see if Feather Fall’s medicinal effects were working well in his body and asked as he slowly raised his magic power.

    “Your running skills have improved since then. “Do you have any special secrets?”

    Although he was said to have taken full advantage of the limited environment of the narrow hallway and killed the other freelancers except Lennok his movements were completely different from what Lennok remembered.

    If the prosecutor’s speed at the Trade Center had been that fast the battle that took place at that time would not have ended so quickly.

    The prosecutor was silent at Lennok’s words and then spoke.

    “How did Devon die?”

    “Devon? “Are you talking about that wizard?”

    “…..okay.”

    “It’s an incredibly strong friendship.”

    “say!!”

    “Like you kidnapped and sold them. “They cut open the stomach twisted out the intestines and sold all the organs.”

    Lennok smiled faintly while exhaling smoke.

    “no way. “Did you expect a comfortable death while being loyal to a terrorist organization?”

    “Iike….!!”

    The prosecutor’s eyes turned black and the veins near his face began to rise.

    At the same time Lennok raised his eyebrows as he felt the magical power emanating from his body increase abnormally.

    ‘Doping…’

    I’ve seen a similar phenomenon to this somewhere.

    An operation to recapture a building occupied by a scavenger with Drey Crimgall.

    The scavenger branch chief of District 50 that I met there. Didn’t an executive who was a retired soldier use drugs to achieve a similar effect?

    Considering that it was a doping drug that used black magic back then the prosecutor today must have used a similar method.

    Considering that they joined hands with Craig a practical warlock it is not strange.

    In addition that abnormally increased agility can also be explained in conjunction with that.

    The moment Lennok was thinking like that and was about to slam the electric current pulled out between his fingers onto the floor.

    The prosecutor’s body disappeared before my eyes.

    Whoop!!

    “…….!!”

    Although he couldn’t catch up with the naked eye the speed was fast enough to make Lennok who was watching the movement flinch through magic detection.

    Kaaaaaa!!

    The sword that the swordsman struck down in front of Lennok in an instant penetrated the shield and quickly struck Lennok’s neck.

    [Upper Ground]

    Lennok who took a step back pulled up the ground beneath the swordsman’s feet and quickly lifted his blade into the air.

    Suddenly!!

    Corridors made of steel plates are being cut down indiscriminately and pieces of metal are falling from the ceiling.

    Lennok stretched out his hand towards the rain of iron pieces flying above his head and immediately used magic.

    [Magnetic Control]

    [Metal Tempo]

    Clap la la la rock!!

    The pieces of metal that had just fallen were snatched from the air and scattered.

    As if an invisible hand was sowing seeds the pieces fluttering into the air flashed and filled the hallway in an instant.

    Lennok’s lightning flashed through them and pierced through them.

    [Chain Lightning]

    Damn it!!!!

    Resonance of metal and electricity.

    The flow of electricity which would have originally been divided into dozens of branches turns into a dense net of electricity that extends over hundreds of branches through small pieces of metal.

    No matter how fast the swordsman moves there is no way he can avoid this attack unless he shrinks his body to the size of a fingernail.

    Or if he had honed his magic manipulation ability beyond simply handling a sword he wouldn’t have known anything about it or if he had that level of skill he wouldn’t have borrowed the power of medicine.

    Absolutely!!

    “Kahaak..!!”

    The method of using magic is no different from before but its power is vastly different from when Lennok first learned Chain Lightning.

    The swordsman who was surrounded by a net of lightning and whose entire body was hit by enormous firepower convulsed and twisted like crazy.

    “Not like this!!”

    Judging from the expression on his face he doesn’t seem to be feeling much pain due to the effects of the medicine but there’s nothing he can do about the load that’s accumulating on his body.

    He forcefully swung his unmoving arm and somehow threw the sword in his hand towards Lennok.

    Kaaang!!

    Lennok caught the sword in the air which had bounced around without being able to pierce even a single layer of the shield and walked towards the swordsman holding the handle.

    He looked down at the fallen swordsman with blood dripping from his entire body and raised his sword without saying a word.

    I accepted those hateful eyes as they were and swung the blade down.

    The swordsman whose entire body was in tatters could not resist in the slightest and allowed his weapon to reach the center of his heart.

    Phew!

    “Ugh…ugh!”

    The swordsman’s eyes which had been glaring at Lennok until the end while trembling with a deep groan slowly blurred.

    Black protruding eyeballs. Veins protruding all over the face.

    At that speed I would have been able to escape.

    It must have been his choice to meet his end here.

    In that case Lennok also had no regrets.

    He just walks forward again leaving behind only the feelings he tried to cherish.

    “……”

    Lennok who was about to leave must have been thinking about something and stuffed some of the metal pieces he had just used to subdue the prosecutor into his coat pocket.

    Feeling the negative magic becoming stronger Lennok continued to walk deeper underground.

    Through magic detection you can feel your life response rapidly decreasing.

    It was an operation that could not have been carried out for a long time from the beginning and should not have been carried out.
