#Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 848
Handover (16)
“…I don’t know why they’re doing this.”
Not only did he break into the auditorium and destroy the facility, Lennok immediately declared that he would be arrested and taken away.
Raphael, whose entire body was bound with purple chains, said while trying to maintain a calm expression.
“This is a research center established by the Central Council and one of the key confidential facilities. “If you make a fuss, you won’t be able to avoid severe punishment…!!”
“That’s nothing for you to worry about.”
Slam!!
The moment Lennok raised his hand in response, Raphael’s body floated in the air.
A strange appearance, as if an invisible hand had grabbed the chain and lifted it.
“Ugh…!!”
“They said the magic theory you are researching is related to the secrets of this lab.”
Lennok said while looking at Raphael who was struggling.
“There’s something I want to check about that, so I’ll have to go with you.”
Lennok, who had met Raphael during the Pandemonium meeting, knew that his combat skills were not exceptional.
As long as he holds the title of professor, he may be an outstanding scholar, but his physical strength is probably not that strong.
“There are degrees of belittling people…!!”
Raphael’s face suddenly turned red at Lennok’s words.
The professor, who was tied up in chains while suspended in the air, began to draw up his magic power and make a hand sign with one hand.
“Even though I’m not good at fighting, I’m not bad enough to be kidnapped by such crude telekinesis!!”
Keyee!!
A circular magic circle rotated in the center of Raphael’s left hand, wrapping around the professor’s body.
A figure that wraps around a middle-aged man’s body, slowly expands, and instantly takes control of the surrounding magic flow.
At the same time, Raphael’s magical power was about to analyze Lennok’s telekinesis and destroy it.
Tduduk!!
“…?!”
A sticky nosebleed came out of Raphael’s head along with a sound as if something was breaking.
Raphael looks at the dripping blood as if he can’t believe it.
“What… I can’t interpret it…”
“Analysis magic circle? It’s also an outdoor swimming pool. “Your skills are quite good.”
Lennok looked at him and spoke in a soft tone.
“I guess they were planning to interpret my magic and destroy it in reverse, but it was quite dangerous. “If I had gone a little further, my head would have exploded.”
“….”
The professor’s expression turned blank as he realized that the advice he gave was not to Lennok but to Raphael himself.
The gap was so overwhelming that Raphael, an authority on theoretical magic, did not even interpret the magical power, but only doubled down on the recoil.
Even if the opponent is an archmage who manipulates magic power on a particle-by-particle basis, such a one-sided structure is not easy to come by.
And among those monsters, if you say that he is the one who carries out such unrealistic thinking in the Balkans –
“Surely he is fast…?”
“You know me. “I understand you are not local to this city.”
Lennok laughed out loud as he looked at Raphael, who was muttering with a pale complexion.
“Have you even heard my name somewhere?”
“….”
The sight of Raphael with his mouth tightly shut with a faint expression on his face. It wasn’t a strange thing.
No matter how urgent or hectic the situation is, I can’t bring up Pandemonium’s name here.
How much more so can we say that criminal organizations have ever seriously discussed suppressing fast track criminals?
“I’m afraid I won’t be of much use.”
Raphael muttered as he glanced behind the podium.
“In the first place, the lecture was not for public magic research. Oh no, it’s not that I’m not interested in Professor Bylon. It’s true that I accepted the lecture because of that, but-”
“Okay, I understand.”
Lennok said that and immediately started walking with Raphael on his back.
Along with the stunned Hayward, Raphael’s body began to move along as if it were being dragged.
“So I have nothing to do with this-!!!”
The moment Raphael raised his voice in panic, a huge beast jumped out from behind the podium and slammed into Lennok.
Kwaaaa!!
The impact was strong enough to shatter all of the shields that were left behind without needing to replenish them between battles.
The aftermath was so violent that the walls of the vast auditorium cracked and shattered, revealing the still dark sky outside the laboratory.
A thick figure whose entire body is covered in brown fur. Gleaming black eyes and a wide open mouth dripping with saliva.
Lennok, who was looking at the beast chewing on its teeth with its shielded teeth, tilted his head.
“Why is the bear here?”
[What kind of ordinary person who doesn’t know the subject would dare to kidnap the professor?]
At that moment, a man’s extremely ferocious voice came out from inside the bear’s maw.
[Professor Raphael is Elderwood’s benefactor. No one can harm the professor!]
“It’s elderwood…”
However, despite the bear’s words, Lennok looked at the 3m tall bear standing in front of him with great interest.
Even though it is covered in fur, it has such a heavy force that it feels like its entire body is full of muscles.
A refreshing magical power that flows from within the body, qualitatively different from that of an ordinary superhuman. Lennok muttered, feeling strangely uncomfortable as if he were facing the forest air.
“Druid. “Are you someone who has mastered high-level natural techniques to the point where shape change is possible?”
As soon as he heard that, the bear snorted.
[This is someone who has been listening to the great providence of nature.]
“Your name pops up every time a problem arises in the green belt of a huge city.”
Lennok, covering his mouth and coughing slightly, responded.
“I found out about it even though I wasn’t really curious about it.”
Druid’s natural magic takes the form of magic, but its principles and fundamentals are completely different from magic.
Most of the existing natural techniques operate without a clear driving force and rely on the existence of nature and belief in it, and are characterized by no foreshadowing or trace.
However, in exchange for the absence of omens during the activation process, changes through natural magic are designed to occur slowly and gradually.
Changing one’s body into the shape of a bear like now is only possible if one is skilled enough to freely control the change in the nature of the technique.
“Is the composition itself more elaborate than the mutation technique, but less applicable? “If you decide on a specific shape and then transform it, its uses will be quite limited.”
Suddenly…!!
Even though the shield was crushed to the point of being completely broken, Lennok calmly looked at the bear’s shape and muttered.
“The balance between power and cost is pretty good. “It’s my first time seeing it in person, but it’s quite impressive.”
[And that will be the last time!!]
Quaaaaa!!
The shield was completely shattered as the bear struck with its front paw, and Lennok’s body was trampled mercilessly underneath it.
The bear, which had shattered the remaining shield in one go, skipped across the half-destroyed auditorium and ran towards the professor hanging in the air.
[Professor!!]
“Stop Ipasa!!”
Raphael shouted with a stern expression.
“The opponent is a monster. “At least you can run away…!!”
[That can’t be possible. You should go together!]
The druid called Ipasa roughly bit down on the chains that bound Raphael with his teeth.
The moment when the huge bear’s teeth took Raphael’s new form in its mouth and tried to pull it with all its might.
A calm voice echoed from the bottom of the bear’s stomach.
“Is it balanced because it is based on the existence of nature? “That’s honest.”
Lennok, who had created a blob of bright blue electricity at the tip of his finger, was looking up at him and smiling.
“Honest power must be suppressed honestly.”
“…!!!”
At that moment, Ipasa reacted with animal-like reflexes, twisted her body, and lifted her foot.
“I don’t hate that type of attack method.”
A chilling blue light burst from the bottom of the bear’s stomach.
[Thunderstorm]
[Blooming]
The thunderbolt that rises from the toes of a nearly 3m tall bear instantly devours the bear and makes a blue flower bloom.
Stems of blue electricity spread out in all directions like dozens of flower petals, wrapping around Ipasa.
Don’t miss it!!
[Aaaaaaaat?!!!!]
“It hurts!!!”
The brown fur burns and shrivels, and the bear’s large body trembles and convulses before falling down with a loud noise.
The aftermath alone caused the ceiling and walls of the auditorium to burn and heat up the air in the auditorium.
Wow!!
[Oh, no. [You can’t fool a professor…!]
A druid with his eyes closed and his tongue sticking out, convulsing, but spewing out hateful words without losing consciousness.
However, upon hearing Ipasa’s words, Lennok leaned on his staff and whispered.
“The fact that you can say such things even after being hit by my magic is proof that the balance of natural magic is maintained very strongly.”
[…!!!]
“I didn’t mean to kill her, but let alone losing consciousness, the shape change didn’t go away…”
Lennok, who was looking at Ipasa with amusement, said as he approached the fallen Ipasa.
“The level of stability is truly abnormal. “It might be worth researching.”
Lennok’s lightning, which has undergone countless researches and modifications, is not a power specialized only for destruction and ejection.
A state that disables the metabolism itself by interfering with the transmission of signals in the nervous system, increasing muscle stiffness, and even interfering with the body’s magic power.
Even if it is a magic thrown for light suppression, it is common for most superhumans to collapse immediately after being hit, without even thinking about it.
The fact that the shape change of the spell was not resolved even after being hit by Lennok’s magic was proof of how strong the stability of the natural spell was.
A strange characteristic that forcibly stabilizes the technique regardless of the user’s will and capabilities.
Lennok was thinking that the stability of this natural magic might help stabilize his incarnation magic.
Although it had great power as a warrior from the old world, it was too unstable to be used as an alter ego.
If the stability of the natural magic can be given to the incarnation, it will be possible to use the incarnation as an alter ego as previously planned.
The moment when Lennok thought so, he placed his hand on the fallen Ipasa’s head and raised his magical eye.
“Now, I have a research log that records the stability of natural techniques!!”
Raphael, who was looking at Lennok with a devastated expression, hurriedly shouted.
As soon as Lennok heard those words, he looked away.
“Maybe it’s a research journal?”
“A while ago, I was researching a disease that was spreading among druids. “During the process, I have a journal in which I recorded the abnormal stability of the natural magic you mentioned.”
Raphael said, constantly turning his gaze here and there.
“I will hand it over to you if you promise not to see blood here. So-”
“Hmm…”
Lennok slowly removed the hand he had placed on Ipasa’s head and raised his gaze.
Lennok asked as he looked at Raphael’s face hanging in the air.
“Professor, you are a person with more normal emotions than I thought. “He doesn’t seem very subjective.”
“…What on earth did you see in me that made you think that?”
“No, I haven’t really thought about it too deeply.”
“….”
Raphael’s face seemed at a loss for words at the indifferent answer.
But then, why did Professor Raphael enter Pandemonium?
Not all members of Pandemonium are irredeemable evildoers, but no one came in without knowing that it was a criminal organization.
However, from what Lennok sees now, Professor Raphael does not have the disposition to join such a criminal organization on his own.
In the end, it was difficult to ask if it was not about Victor’s identity, so Lennok quickly gave up his interest and approached Raphael.
“I know that there is a reason why the wizard training plan is being carried out at this institute. “There’s no doubt it has some connection to Evan Bylan.”
“….”
“If you can’t tell me or know nothing about the plan, I need to hear an explanation of how your theory was adopted into the project. And that—”
Lennok shrugged and looked away.
“It would be impossible, at least not in a place like this.”
Kwaang!!
The walls of the auditorium shake violently and a strong presence can be felt from far away.
Aegis members have surrounded the auditorium and are slowly pressuring in.
The fact that they do not hastily enter the auditorium is proof that they consider Lennok to be dangerous.
Raphael looked at Lennok with a confused look and the sign of Aegis approaching from afar, and then sighed as the ground fell.
“…Change places. “I will do as you say.”
The professor looked up at Lennok with difficulty and muttered.
“I don’t know what value the lab’s secrets would be to someone like you, but if the Archmage wants it, I have no choice but to follow it.”
“That’s a strange answer.”
Lennok laughed.
“When you say that, it makes me sound like some kind of villain.”
“….”
“….”
When Raphael looked up at Lennok as if he were looking at a crazy person, Lennok also closed his mouth.
Dabi cleared his throat in his arms.
[Hmm.]
“Then let’s change the location right away.” “I will receive the research log there.”
Lennok said and put his hand in his arms.
Raphael looked at the scene helplessly and muttered as if something suddenly occurred to him.
“…If the special agency is surrounding this auditorium, they will definitely notice our movements. “How can you avoid getting caught?”
The superhumans of the special agency directly under the city council are superhumans who are skilled in various combat techniques and techniques.
If they were to surround this auditorium and wait, the method would not end with forming a physical formation, but they would also try to borrow various techniques, including the power of the barrier.
“do not worry.”
Lennok, who was holding an old pencil with complicated letters engraved in his arms, grabbed Raphael’s wrist.
“Now there are things that I have no use for other than this.”
“Enagpil’s-!!”
[Solid!!]
Just as Raphael’s tone changed sharply upon realizing the identity of the artifact, the outer wall of the auditorium collapsed and Aegis members came down.
They too must have been watching in real time what Lennok was doing here.
[Please stop. If we leave the laboratory like this-!!]
Dozens of superhumans are running toward Lennok, building up a complex barrier above their heads.
Even from Lennok’s perspective, this is a significant output. Perhaps one of the Aegis members was injected with high-level barrier techniques.
Realizing this, Lennoc stabbed the pencil into Raphael’s wrist without hesitation.
Faaah!!
The new figures of the two people standing on the half-destroyed podium disappeared and fell into the dark room.
Immediately after that, the chains binding Raphael were released and the professor’s body fell to the floor.
Full!!
“Cough!!”
Raphael, who let out a rough breath, even forgot about the current situation for a moment and looked at Lennok in bewilderment.
“Even though the Archmage is different, he is quite different. “I can’t believe I wasted a precious item like Enakpil’s finger like this…”
“I could use space transfer on you separately, but it would be a hassle if I tried to analyze the magic unnecessarily.”
Lennok said that and naturally started walking towards one wall.
“Rather than letting your head explode for no reason, it would be better to deal with it from the beginning so that there is no room to touch it.”
“Is the fact that the head explodes itself a sure thing? That’s an unpleasant assumption.”
Lennok looked away, ignoring the babbling Raphael.
Even though it wasn’t necessarily used for something like this, Lennok still had spare Enakpil left.
As word spread that this was the only reward Lennok, who worked as a freelancer, liked, he occasionally received gifts as bribes through Jenny.
“Where are we? “Considering the magic lag rate depending on space, it doesn’t seem to be far from the research center.”
Raphael asked, glancing at Hayward, who had been transferred along with him and was lying unconscious in a corner.
“The special agencies of the Central Council are very excellent superhumans. If you don’t quickly increase the distance between you, it will chase you right away. “It doesn’t matter to me, but-”
“I didn’t fall out of the lab, I’m still in the lab.”
“…what?”
Lennok responded by pulling the lever located on one side of the wall.
“To be precise, it is a power generation facility that supplies electricity to the entire national park where the research institute is located.”
Faaah!!
At that moment, the lights in the room turned on brightly and the surrounding scenery began to come into view.
Wooooow!!!
A vast cavity covered with wires thicker than a human body.
Except for the control device located on the wall, all surrounding scenery is made up of wires to transport power.
The moment Raphael was at a loss for words after seeing that, Lennok took out the hard disk from his pocket and explained.
“I restored the deleted data from the lab’s independent network, but the capacity was not large enough to be opened with an ordinary computer. Even access is impossible without autonomous data viewing equipment with star-level computing power.”
“….”
“It’s not that there is no way to force it open, but it would be better to find a way as close as possible to avoid unnecessary damage.”
While the power of the entire laboratory was paralyzed, Lennok was naturally aware of the existence of this place.
The moment Lennok loaded the deleted data onto the hard disk while fighting Crescent, he immediately realized how to view the disk through Dabi.
“We will match the required output by replacing horsepower and power and open the disk. “If we double-convert the power from the power generation facility, we can match the output.”
Slam!!
said Lennok, opening the control panel in the control room and tapping the circuits with his gloved hands.
“What you need to do is explain the magic theory mentioned in the lecture and advise on the data stored on the disk. To be precise, it’s about how your theory was applied to the wizard training plan. “Do you have any questions?”
“Oh no…”
Raphael, who was looking blankly at Lennok, soon muttered with a curious expression.
“Your understanding of modern magic engineering computer equipment… is very high. “To be honest, I didn’t understand any of that explanation.”
“….”
Lennok asked, pressing his temple as if he was in pain.
“It must be something familiar to wizards active on the central front. “Aren’t you from there?”
“exactly. “I don’t have enough talent, so it was difficult for me to follow the tips created by geniuses in real life.”
A bitter smile appeared on Raphael’s lips for a moment.
“The only area in which I excelled was theoretical analysis. “Compared to you, who are an archmage but have an expertise in engineering, your talent is truly insignificant.”
“That’s not a very persuasive statement from someone as good as a professor.”
This is too self-deprecating for an introduction by a researcher who is outstanding enough to be included in Pandemonium.
Lennok cut off Raphael’s words and sneered as he immediately connected the power circuit of the control device.
“You probably know that research on magic theory is also not free from such problems. “Are you saying you want to complain?”
“…No, I just heard that you have a very close relationship with Professor Bylon. “I just wanted to tell you in advance.”
Raphael answered calmly.
“Maybe Evan Bylan is someone who had the same thoughts as me and became a theoretical researcher.”
“….”
“I am very interested in Professor Bylon. “I am interested not only in public magic, but also in the research he has done so far and what motivated his genius ideas.”
“Because you think he might be in the same situation as you?”
“Of course there is that, but…”
Raphael swallowed his words with a bitter smile.
Instead, he felt his chest and took out a thick notebook from his arms.
The size is so ridiculous that it doesn’t fit the chest of the suit I’m wearing. It’s probably an item that was stored using some kind of magic.
Raphael said as he held it out towards Lennok.
“I will also cooperate with what you are trying to do. I’ll also hand you a record of the stability of natural techniques. “Would you please let me meet Professor Bylan instead?”
“….”
“I have read every single paper written by Professor Bylan. “The paper he wrote had much more meaning than the presentation that made a big splash.”
Before I knew it, Raphael’s eyes had calmed down.
“I think I know what Professor Bylon wants. “I came to this lab because I knew that. But if I could talk to Professor Bylan directly, there would be no reason to be tied down anymore.”
“What do you mean?”
“The Bylon Research Institute is not a research facility built to study the research results left behind by Evan Bylon-”
Raphael, who hesitated, nodded slowly and answered.
“Because it was created to study Evan Bylan himself.”
