The Genius Wizard Who Takes Medicine Episode 987

Central Front Border Zone (4)

“The fifth corps commander.”

Lennoc sneered after hearing the man’s declaration coming from the airship.

“Was that proposal something that could have been made so easily by the Corps?”

Deadrise, a very large army currently fighting for a corner of the central front.

The Union’s fifth corps commander, who has independent operational authority and takes over the troops under his command.

Are they so willing to give Evan the position of commander, which is only handed over to generals of lieutenant general or higher?

A remark that Lennoc couldn’t help but laugh at, knowing that even Feisha Grisburn couldn’t serve as corps commander.

“It would not be a reasonable decision to hand over the position of corps commander to a complete stranger.”

[The head of the corps is not determined by origin or major.]

However, the voice echoing from the airship remained calm even after hearing Lennok’s retort.

[The important thing is the question of qualifications to lead the corps. The feats you demonstrated in the Balkans more than meet those qualifications.]

“….”

[The determination that single-handedly burned down a city, and the dance that put him into action. Even the macroscopic decision that ultimately saved the lighthouse keeper in the complex Balkan.]

Now the man’s voice was echoing loudly as if the speakers were about to explode.

[It has been proven that the defeat you accepted was not in vain. All that remains is for you to join the Legion’s hand!]

“well. I’m not sure. “It’s not like there was no conflict with the army while I was in the Blue Eyes.”

Lennok smiled coldly.

“I killed them regardless of denomination, corps, or alliance. Do you think that now we can turn everything around like it never happened?”

[That can’t be possible. But that is exactly why this corps has survived on the central front until now.]

“….”

[If you have the necessary talent and ability, even if you are an enemy general, you can take him under the banner of the legion. A petty grudge is nothing more than an obstacle to pursuing the greater good!]

The resolute and uncompromising behavior and words resemble those of a medieval warrior, not a modern soldier.

That’s probably because Deadrise’s roots started out as a private military company and reached its current status.

If you have the necessary talent or resources, even if they are enemies, recruit them and make them allies.

The more capable an enemy commander is, the more highly he is evaluated within the corps, and the more likely he is to be promoted to a higher position in return.

[This 3rd Corps is carrying out an operation to retrieve the records of cultists’ offering ceremonies acquired by the Gate Search Party.]

A man’s heavy voice rang out over the airship’s speakers.

[Regardless of the major established by the Gate Search Team, that is information that should not be leaked to the outside world under this quarter.]

“….”

[Originally, you would have to prevent the search party from returning to the gate, but if you accept the headquarters’ proposal, you can cancel the operation entirely and return to headquarters with the authority of the headquarters.]

Even while proposing scouting to Lennok, he holds the safety of the search party hostage and alternates between cajoling and pressure.

Although he uses somewhat extreme and harsh language, his judgment and speaking style itself have a roundabout aspect.

He is not simply an ignorant figure loyal to the Legion or a person buried in one way of thinking.

“I’m sorry, but I have no intention of deciding my future here.”

But even though Lennok knew that fact, he shook his head without regret.

“It hasn’t been long since I left the Blue Eyes. “Rather than belonging somewhere right now, I want to tour the central front.”

[Right. Was the Legion’s offer too quick to forget the pain of parting?]

“…You know I don’t mean that. In the first place, was the position of corps commander something that could be given and received like a gift?”

Lennok’s eyes sank as he looked back at the five airships floating around him.

“The Legion I know is not that kind of organization. Decision-making is impossible without at least approval from the captain level. But even so, the fact that you are making a proposal to me…”

[….]

Lennok said, slowly lowering the glass he was holding.

“It must mean that you are a soldier with a strong enough position or justification to ignore such procedures.”

[That’s not wrong. The main office is also here facing you with a mission that we cannot back down from.]

The man calmly agreed.

[It’s as if you’re wasting time over the main office’s proposal.]

Buaaaa!!

At that moment, the search party members who ran out of the shelter began running towards the other side of the wilderness at incredible speed.

Had all the civilians remaining in the shelter been evacuated, or were there already no survivors left?

If it’s the Legion’s method that Lennok knows, the answer will be fixed.

[What a humble response. Have you been listening to the headquarters until now to give yourself time to prepare?]

“Because you will try to kill the gate search party the moment I reject that offer.”

The moment they hid in the night sky and poured down their first bombardment, the Legion air assault unit was able to kill all of the search party.

However, instead of targeting the search party, the extensive attack on the refuge itself was merely a means of preparing a place to talk with Lennok.

He is the type of commander who looks at the board broadly but does not give specific meaning to it.

I don’t know who the opponent is, but he must be a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a very long time.

However, after listening to Lennok’s words, the man calmly denied the answer.

[That is wrong. He refused the offer because he had no intention of doing anything.]

Slam!!

The gun muzzle rising from the airship tilted and pointed precisely at the search party approaching from afar.

[Regardless of the proposal, the search party was planning to kill everyone.]

“…!!”

Tu-ta-ta-ta-ta-tang!!!

Bullets poured out of the gun ports and began to rain down on the ruins where the search party was fleeing.

Ammunition from dozens of airships pouring in all at once, spreading across the sky like a pitch-black barrage.

All at once, scars resembling honeycombs were carved into the ground.

Doo doo doo doo!!!

The search party members pulled the throttle and increased their horsepower as the gunfire pursued them fiercely.

“Wolfhild!!”

“know!!”

Wolfhild, who jumped out at the head of the search party, closed his eyes and concentrated.

[Kinesis: Antibarrel]

Wow!!

As Wolfhild, sweating coldly, stretched out his hand, a transparent force field spread over his head and caught the bullet.

Telekinesis-type superpower. Among them, it is a technology created with a specialized bulletproof function that blocks bullets.

It is the result of Wolfhild, a level 4 psychic, adjusting his psychic powers with his Geass in order to use them to their full potential.

Since it is a supernatural ability that operates on pure mental power, when it comes to superpowers, Geass is bound to operate to extremes in one way or another. Wolfhild was the luckiest case among dogs.

While Wolfhild was at the forefront blocking the fire, the other members each took out their weapons.

Clap, clap!!

The crew members who took out the bazooka from the bike storage compartment quickly loaded it and pulled the trigger.

“Eat this, you bastards!!”

Kwaaaa!!

Two airships hit by a bazooka shake slightly in the air due to the impact.

War weapons produced directly by Deadrise. Although there may be damage, it is unlikely that it will fall with just this much counterattack.

“Until there.”

But Lennok nodded his head, raising his hand towards the rain gun that had been hit by the bazooka.

“I will handle it from then on.”

[Woon Lotus Fire]

Grrrrrrrrr!!

At that moment, the flames that erupted from the spot where the airship was hit began to rapidly expand in size.

It was as if the size and heat were forcibly increased on the spot according to someone’s will.

Soon, the flame cloud that enveloped the entire airship began to burn the airship in an instant.

[Emergency, emergency!]

The airship engulfed in fire lost its balance, stumbled, and crashed at high speed, landing in front of the search party.

Kwaaaang!!

The door of the crashed airship shattered, and hundreds of soldiers jumped out and ran.

“Waaaa!!”

“For the Legion!!”

Everyone is already fully armed and forming a formation as if prepared for hand-to-hand combat.

Considering the fact that the airship’s crash occurred due to Lennok’s intervention, the response speed was unusually fast.

The search party members, facing the 3rd Corps assault force ready for battle right before their eyes, drew their weapons all at once.

“Holy shit, really!!”

“I told you that you can’t trust those Legionnaires!!”

“Okay, just focus!!”

Ulu Rick, with his sword drawn, looked at the back of Lennok left at the edge of the wilderness in the distance and shouted.

“While Evan is helping, we will clear a way out. Everyone get ready!!”

Quagwagwang!!

Searchers on bikes and Deadrise soldiers clash violently in various places.

In a fierce melee, blades and bullets were exchanged, magic exploded, and screams erupted.

Lennok, who was looking at the search party that suddenly entered into battle, tilted the drink he was holding in his hand.

Wow!

Lenok scattered the remaining beer at his feet and flicked out a spark from the cigar he was holding.

The flame of the cigar caught on top of the alcohol and instantly lit up a fire under my feet.

[Jugwashin Wheel]

Grumbling!!

The spinning flames beneath my feet burned more intensely, and a pillar of flame stretched out around Lennok.

At the center of a pillar of fire that glowed red enough to brighten up the night sky, the moment Lennok put his hands together and made a hand sign.

“Summoning art.”

[Hwacheon Ganggwi (火喘鋼龜)]

Coo coo coo coo coo!!!!

Arms and legs extend between the pillars of flame, and the pillars of fire bend and turn into a huge shell.

The turtle’s head popped out from under its burning red shell, opened its mouth wide, and let out a massive roar.

[Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!]

A huge flame turtle the size of an airship suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield.

At that moment, the fire from the airship, which felt threatened, turned all at once and rushed towards the turtles, not the search party.

Doo doo doo doo doo!!!

Countless artillery fire and bombardment pouring down on the hard shell.

The turtle slowly blinked its eyes, and Lennok, standing underneath the boat, summoned a fire weapon and grabbed it.

[Gwaeeeeek]

Hwacheon Gangwi opened its mouth wide and began pouring out dark red lava from its throat.

Cheeeeeek!!

The lava that flows out of the mouth flows out in all directions of the ruins and surrounds the battlefield.

A wave of lava that melts the airship that crashed to the ground and sweeps away the soldiers surrounding the search party.

“Kwaaaa!!”

“Hot, hot…!!”

“Ugh!! “Aaaah!!”

There is a clear difference in mobility between searchers on bikes and soldiers on foot.

The faster the lava flows over the ground, the more advantageous the battlefield becomes for the search party that has the upper hand in mobility.

The soldiers of the 3rd Corps also quickly formed a formation and tried to avoid the lava, but before they knew it, Lennok, engulfed in flames, fell from the sky and crushed the soldiers.

Cheap!!

Using the huge ignition device in his hand as a flamethrower, he breathes out hot flames like a dragon’s breath.

The lack of firepower is supplemented by chanting additional flame magic in real time, and the airship is bombarded with fire.

“Initial magic.”

Flame series unique magic

Catalyst response to property change

[Yongam seal]

[Cheonbung]

Ugh!!!

A huge lava fist erupted from the flowing lava and struck down, swinging its arms horizontally.

As the giant’s arm made of lava swept across the ground, the bodies of the soldiers who could not escape were submerged in the lava.

Cheeeeeek!!

[Ooooooooo!!!]

As the flame turtle roared and twisted its body, its shell split open and flames shot out into the sky like firecrackers.

The fireworks hit the back of the airship, which was constantly bombing, directly.

By setting off countless explosions, it shakes even the still intact airships and breaks their balance.

Bubbling bubbling!!

On the ground, they overwhelmingly massacred Deadrise’s army units, opening the way.

Minions lay the groundwork and occupy the sky, search parties clear the way, and Lennok clears out the enemies.

The moment when the battle that the Legion had started one-sidedly turned over in an instant and began to change the balance.

[The record of the offering rituals performed by cultists is a black box that must be recovered from the Corps’ standpoint.]

A man’s heavily subdued voice rang out through the airship’s speakers.

[This has been confirmed with the approval of Ultima Alert, and is the highest priority goal in this operation.]

“…A black box?”

[At the point when you reject the headquarters’ offer, all that remains is to completely achieve the operational goal.]

Whioooooo….!!

In the airship hovering above Lennok’s head, the presence of something is suddenly felt to increase explosively.

[I express regret that things turned out this way.]

“Evan!!”

Squeak!!

Ulurik skillfully tilted his bike to a halt and pointed to the other side of the battle line.

“I will open a road over there. “We will move first…!!!”

“no. “Keep moving!!”

The moment when Lennok shouted and manipulated some of the lava to form a curtain.

[Conversion to fixed flight mode. Ejection port open. Bullet loading completed.]

A mechanical guidance sound rang out from the airship hovering above the two men’s heads.

[Lieutenant General Robert Loveride descends. Prepare for shock.]

“…!!!”

Immediately after hearing Lennok’s words, Uluric gritted his teeth and increased the speed of his bike again.

Something fell from underneath the airship and hit the ground at incredible speed.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

The lava curtain protecting the overhead suddenly exploded, crushing the ground and scattering intense shock waves.

Ripples spread across the entire battlefield where fire and lava were rising, spreading across the earth in all directions.

Even Lennok had to raise his magic power to protect his body in the aftermath of the impact.

Kugugugugu!!!!

Under a crater filled with lava and the remains of an airship, something wearing thick armor rose up.

Cheeeeeek…!!

Slam!!!

Every time he moves his body, intense steam escapes through the seams of his armor.

A bizarre appearance as if the power output concentrated within the armor could not be controlled, and the body was forced to expel heat to move.

A huge figure slowly walked out, emitting steam from its entire body, and let out a heavy voice.

“Even after the fall of Arsnova, the Gate Search Team continued to work hard on their mission and fulfill their vocation.”

Wow!!

The moment you take a step, you feel as if the earth is shaking and cracking.

A middle-aged man carrying a metal case larger than his own body on his shoulder.

Wearing armor much larger than his body, the figure feels overwhelmingly dense, as if it might explode.

“I’m sorry we had to kill such good soldiers. However, that will will be inherited by the Legion.”

The man standing in front of the expressionless Lennok and the stiffened search party members opened his mouth with a face as hard as a rock.

“Commander of the 3rd Deadrise Corps, I swear in the name of Robert Roberide.”
