Chapter 891
The Medicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 891
: Eyes that See Destiny (27)
“Run…!!”
Hwaaaaa!!
A strong wind blowing like a collision. The stairs of the tower pass by Lapis in an instant and disappear upward.
Lapis unconsciously tried to raise her voice, but realized that her body’s center of gravity was shifting and raised her magical power.
Keying!!
If you land without preparation, you will end up exhausted without even leaving a proper shape.
A situation that requires intervention, whether it is strengthening the body with magic or using magic to relieve the shock.
However, even though Lapis knew this, she was hesitant to chant the spell.
‘If I use magical power here and now-’
I may not be able to meet the requirements for the ritual that must be performed in the Hexagonal Fortress.
The ritual that must be attempted in the castle is to meet the consciousness of Heavenly Gyeon at the border of the world.
The magic power and determination that will be consumed in the process are such a great undertaking that success cannot be guaranteed even if Lapis gives her all.
If you waste it to avoid an immediate crisis, you may not even be able to start the next ceremony.
Not just for Lapis herself, but for the others who are now moving to save her-
‘…I.’
After thinking that far, Lapis looked back on her situation and smiled helplessly.
‘What on earth am I doing?’
After consulting with the city council, he visited District 19, clashed with the vice mayor, and was chased by the entire city.
Even at this moment, when he was kidnapped by lightning and locked in a tower and managed to escape with Evelyn’s help, he is still hesitating.
It was something worth doing at the time, but it was a controllable variable at the time. What on earth do such excuses mean?
It was assumed that magic power was being saved for the ritual, but in reality, there was no way the Hexagonal Fortress would obediently hand over the crack in the open sea to Lapis.
If you try to assume everything, there will be no end, and if you try to worry about everything, you won’t be able to stop even if you stay up all day.
As a lighthouse keeper, I was tired of struggling with the present while feeling anxious about the imminent future.
For now, we must focus only on eliminating the crisis that is right in front of us with all our might.
Not for anyone else, but for Lapis herself.
Keyee…!!
Lapis, who had raised her magical power, opened her mouth with determination in her voice.
A promise was made and trust has not yet been broken.
If they knew that this was their last chance, they would definitely be here too.
Just believing that you would be here was enough.
“Patricia.”
“Lapis!!”
Kiyiing!!!
At that moment, an illusion unfolds in Lapis’s eyes, as if different visions are overlapping.
A pure white crane appeared as if summoned from the air and instantly flew up with Lapis on its back.
Lapis, who was falling with her eyes tightly closed, smiled brightly and hugged Patisia’s neck.
“As expected, you were nearby…!!”
“yes…!!”
Wedge!!
The moment Patisia bent her wings to one side, a sharp flash of magic passed by the two and disappeared.
“Lapis Falseer…!!”
“Stop right there!!”
The tower’s mercenaries were running vertically along the broken outer wall.
Da da da da!!
“Hey lighthouse keeper!!”
Suryeon, clutching the scimitar, and Mila, carrying a shotgun, jumped down along the tower wall.
A movement that speeds up quickly and follows the patissia with both feet placed accurately between the shaking exterior walls.
“You must not leave the tower’s territory!! You wanna die?!”
Mila shouted with a pale complexion.
Although they followed Ban’s decision, the tower’s mercenaries had no intention of killing Lapis in the first place.
There is no malicious intent to gain or risk the loss by killing Lapis here.
However, the intention of the wizard who imprisoned the lighthouse keeper in the magic tower must be different.
“If half the class knows…!!”
“I know.”
Lapis answered, pressing her flowing hair with one hand.
“Thank you for your concern. But this is what I have to do.”
“Lapis…!!”
Su-ryeon runs out from the outer wall and looks at Lapis with a confused expression.
“Why on earth…!!”
“I’m sorry, Soo-ryeon.”
Lapis bowed her head as she watched the training.
“But I don’t have much time.”
“….”
“I want to finish everything I can before the miracle that came by chance disappears from this city.”
Suryun seemed to understand everything from Lapis’ words.
“…Right. “There must be something I can’t talk about, right?”
“….”
“Then I just do what I have to do as a member of the tower…!!”
Whoa!!
The spear of the Unwoldo sword bends strangely and rushes forward as if cutting off the wings of a crane.
The wind that split along Changgeuk struck the Partisan’s fuselage and instantly twisted its flight trajectory.
Kagagak!!
“…!!”
The Patisya’s body shook violently and blood began to seep through the feathers, but the Patisya did not stop.
“It’s going to hurt a bit, lighthouse keeper…!!”
Kagagak!!
Mila, who lifted the shotgun while sliding down the outer wall, unleashed her superpowers and fired buckshot.
Suryeon grabs the spear of the scimitar with both hands and rotates it sharply. Manson and Wei An, who jump down behind her, run with their magic power raised.
The security unit commanded by Dray was moving between the stairs in perfect order, carrying firearms and a harpoon net.
Jenny, who appeared after stepping on the remains of the broken outer wall of the tower, looked down with a cold gaze.
“Lapis Falseer. “I warned you, right?”
“…Zenisia.”
Slam!!
Kiyiing!!!
Tatiana stands on the roof of the tower and starts chanting, and Felix lands in the front yard and raises the hammer.
Level 7 superhumans surround from both heaven and earth, and elite mercenaries aim for the party shrine.
“The only consideration I can give is to finish everything before the class arrives.”
Jenny nodded and sighed.
“I’m sorry.”
A dead-end situation with no place to escape or escape to.
Organizational power that instantly occupies both the ground and the sky and narrows the space for escape.
Lapis nodded with a determined expression.
“Patricia. I’m going to use my supernormal abilities. “I’m going to steal all the eyes gathered here, so I’ll ask you something later.”
Deterioration of eyesight due to overload of supernormal abilities, consumption of magical power and will. All of that is a matter to think about later.
I bring out my supernormal ability of sight-seeing with all my might and take away the eyes of everyone gathered here for a moment.
If everyone’s eyes can be closed even for a moment, Patisia will also be able to secure the minimum flight distance.
The moment Lapis made up her mind, began to roll her eyelids and make a hand sign with both hands.
“No, Lapis.”
Patisia shook her head.
“It’s time.”
“hour…?”
“The man has arrived.”
Whoop!!
At that moment, a hot breath blew across my skin as if it was slowly rippling.
A strong resonance of thought that does not directly harm the body, but conveys the heat to the bones and makes them feel hot.
The moment Lapis felt it and her whole body stiffened.
[Jinhwa Shrine]
[Heat Crane]
A huge spear of flame struck diagonally at the lower level of the magic tower, repelling all the mercenaries rushing towards Lapis.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
“Holy shit!!”
“It doesn’t make sense, it can’t be possible…!!”
A huge javelin that fell without the slightest warning.
However, those who were thrown out had their complexions hardened by the pitiful magical power of the flames felt from the fire spear.
This is because I was able to realize as soon as I saw who the owner of this flame technique that penetrated the lower part of the tower was.
At that moment, someone’s voice rang out from beyond the sky.
“There are a lot of people gathered together.”
A young man with an expressionless face was standing at the edge of a diagonal window, looking down at the ground.
A thick arranging device strapped to his forearm and a thick cigar in his mouth.
A vast amount of haze swirled around him constantly, as if he were surrounded by an invisible curtain of heat.
Coo coo coo coo!!!!
No one present could immediately perceive the amount of magical power rising from that body.
The moment when everyone was momentarily silenced by the heat of magical energy that instantly filled the courtyard of the tower.
The young man muttered, massaging his neck with one hand.
“I wasn’t the only one who set the appointment time.”
Tatiana shouted, raising her magic power with a creepy expression.
“Evan Martinez…!!”
* * *
Area 38. A scrap metal disposal site where only unmanned cranes come and go from time to time.
An abandoned space that lost its purpose after the 50th Street closed area turned into a huge garbage dump.
A ruin with only bare steel structures stacked on top of each other to form a huge mountain of scrap metal.
A young man with black hair and a cold expression was sitting on the top of that metal mountain, looking at the sky.
Broken broken…!!
Blue lightning flashes faintly above the cloudy eyes staring through the dark clouds.
The black coat draped over his shoulders swayed slowly, and the silver staff at his feet gave off faint ripples.
The young man stared at the sky in silence for a long time and muttered to himself as if he were answering.
“I had an appointment.”
The wizard slowly lowered his gaze to the ground and smiled.
“I don’t think we’ll make it on time.”
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeow
A mountain of scrap metal processing grounds spread out beneath our feet.
Surrounding the gentle ridge were thousands of cyborgs, their red eyes glowing.
An army of machines to surround only one person, Lennok, and prevent him from escaping.
Lennok laughed.
“There aren’t many organizations that are smart enough to bring out such cheap robots in front of me. “Where is it?”
[….]
“Gearside or cybrid eco?”
[I’m sorry. We are neither.]
At that moment, a soft voice flowed from the mouth of the cyborg in the lead.
A soft, deep male voice as if singing and whispering to Lennok.
[However, considering the work scheduled for today, I thought pre-work was necessary.]
“It’s pre-work.”
Lennok looked around and sneered.
“You’re making a grandiose plan to drain my magic in advance.”
The cyborgs gathered here are not machine life forms with excellent combat skills or superior algorithms.
It is simply a product specialized in the function of inducing, absorbing, and emitting lightning-type magical energy like a moving lightning rod.
[I’m telling you, I’m not doing this to beat you or kill you. Let’s make sure of this.]
The robot in the lead spoke in a humorous voice as if persuading Lennok.
[However, in order to properly enjoy the event you have prepared, there must be a certain balance so that the viewers will also enjoy it.]
“You are going to strike a balance?”
[know. It might sound funny. But we bet on the one with the lowest odds.]
The robot laughed.
[If you can win this gamble by giving away your life, your will, and your spirit… whatever. No, actually, you don’t have to win. Rather, that can be said to be the purpose.]
Clap, clap, clap!!
At the same time as he said those words, hundreds of cyborgs surrounding Lennok resonated in unison, releasing an intense force field.
Measures to induce and absorb all the current flowing within this space and receive it instead.
It’s okay not to fight and win. Rather, I want it to be broken into pieces right here.
If only by doing so, we could take away even a little of that magician’s power in the confrontation that is predicted from now on –
“That’s a pitiful excuse to say that just mixing hands with me is enough.”
Lennok chuckled and raised his hand.
“Do you believe that you can control the game with just such tricks?”
Damn it!!
At that moment, black magic surged like a fountain from behind Lennok.
A grotesquely twisted finger appeared through a crack, as if forcibly holding a black door open.
Crump patter!!
The image of a gigantic demon giant appeared on a mountain of scrap metal with black chains on both forearms.
[…This.]
“But I agree with one of the nonsense you guys are talking about.”
While the cyborgs, facing that hideous appearance, hesitated due to an alien force that they could not interpret at all.
Lennok slowly stood up, pulled out his staff from the ground, and said.
“I am the one who decides the time and place. When and where to start is up to me, not you.”
[….]
“But this isn’t bad either. “If I had to change the stage, it would be better…”
Lapis’s escape. Evan Martinez appears among the Magic Tower mercenaries.
However, in order to match the timing, the timing at which the two wizards meet must be adjusted appropriately.
Lennok deliberately created this structure to plot and foreshadow a huge battle because it was not just to draw attention to his own play.
A crack in the open sea that exists in the Hexagonal Fortress. A weak crack that did not become a [gate] to the open sea.
The last piece to meet the conditions for Lapis’ ritual rests with Lennok himself.
Considering what is currently happening in the Magic Tower, it might be easier to invest time in these pieces of scrap metal.
Moreover, there is a lot of interest in the ‘lightning rod’ that is trying to lure, receive, and emit lightning.
“good. decided.”
Wow!!
The hideous shadow of a demon giant crossing his thick forearms and starting to crouch.
Lennok, who walked up with a cane, looked down at the mountain of scrap metal and smiled.
“I’ll hang out with you for a moment. Let’s see how many odd items you brought.”
