Necromancer Academy’s Genius Summoner -
Chapter 988
Necromancer School’s Summoning Genius Chapter 988
Kazan’s briefing has begun.
“This is what Belle Heights, an impregnable cliff territory, looks like.”
Kazan attached a photo of the magic camera to the cave wall. Simon had already seen it, but all the other Ancient Undead stuck their heads out with curious faces because it was their first time seeing the photo.
A city of natural beauty located high on a cliff.
And an unidentified wall surrounding the city. It doesn’t seem like a simple barrier.
“Currently, no one in the Dark Alliance has been able to break through this wall. “For now, we are calling it the ‘gray wall.’”
Erzsebet joined in, showing interest.
[Is it a type of barrier?]
“Opinions differ among scholars, but it is not a barrier. It is unclear whether it is a new technique of the Order, magic, or the effect of an artifact. “They say there is a possibility that it is not a material that exists on the continent.”
Hersheba giggled.
[It looks like the organization is playing around with materials from other worlds and dungeons.]
“Yes. “Let me explain in detail.”
The gray wall that surrounds the territory is not really a ‘wall’. It looks like some kind of smoke or fog, but strangely enough, the gas is said to have the same strength as metal. In other words, the metal is billowing like smoke. This is a phenomenon that has never been discovered in the material world of the continent.
So, if anyone tries to force their way through there.
“You will be torn apart.”
Kazan spoke heavily, but Prince said wahaha! I smiled and clapped my hands like a child.
[Simon! Did you hear? It’s torn! It’s being torn to pieces!]
“Yes, yes.”
Simon calmly accepted the words and winked at Kazan again. Kazan cleared his throat once and then resumed his explanation.
“To put it simply, you can think of it as an endlessly moving wall. Even if you apply a lot of force, it will only disperse a little and quickly return to its original form as the smoke fills up. Curses and heat waves don’t work either. “They say it basically blocks mana, so you can’t look inside.”
“It’s difficult.”
“So no one knows what has happened in that territory over the past two weeks.”
Kazan’s expression became serious.
“People may be being subjected to harsh torture or biological experiments due to a conspiracy, and in the worst case, there is a possibility that the interior has already been filled with smoke and the city has been reduced to dust.”
“….”
Simon said after being lost in thought for a moment.
“Nephthys gave our Legion a deadline of 5 days. What happens after 5 days?”
Kazan drooled and scratched the scar under his eye.
“They say they plan to remove the gray wall using a destructive weapon with asymmetrical power. Of course, if you use that, the chances of the people inside Belle Heights being safe are slim.”
[Oh my gosh, isn’t that too extreme?]
“This is also proof that the Dark Alliance and the Shahed royal family are losing face to the gang. “There is a risk that the solidarity between the Allies will be weakened, as the organization wants.”
Kazan glanced at Simon and the undead.
“The only thing I can trust is the 7th Legion. “Everyone is losing face because of this incident, and if you, who are renowned as death-defying nemeses, perform well, the world will see you again.”
Wow!
The excited Prince clapped his hands and jumped up.
[good! We become heroes, right? Let’s go!]
The atmosphere heated up. I don’t know the situation well, but the undead reacting to the atmosphere were screaming passionately from behind, and Peer and Erzsebet had already entered the gray wall and were talking about the war that would take place in the city center. While everyone is talking excitedly.
[There is no way to break through.]
It stands tall.
There was silence inside the ruins for a moment.
Soon everyone’s eyes turned to the very back. I saw a zombie butler with a sour expression sitting in restraints.
[After saving the king and becoming the hero of Belle Heights, the identity of the corps commander is revealed. Easier said than done. Didn’t you say that no necromancer has been able to overcome the wall so far?] The
monocle he was wearing shook lightly from side to side.
[Did you say the human there was Kazan? Please show me the picture of you attacking the wall next to you again.]
“I understand.”
Kazan flipped through the photos. A powerful necromancer of high rank was seen pouring black magic into the gray wall.
[Considering the undulating and spreading flow of the wall and the width of the cracks, the area covered by the gray wall is vaster than imagined. It would occupy about 1/10th of the diameter of the Bell Heights estate. He probably believes in the Great Sword of Destruction that cuts through that space.] The
zombie butler’s gaze rested on Peer for a moment and then returned.
[Even if you cut down a space, smoke will fill the empty space after a while. Assuming that you are going to break through one after another, you will end up having to cut through the space once within 12 seconds, then move forward and cut through the space again. You will have to repeat this more than 50 times to break through. Even if it were possible, you would be exhausted and future battles would be impossible.] The
zombie butler closed his eyes.
[Sometimes it is necessary to make a decision to observe quietly rather than to move recklessly.]
“….”
[..]
A deep silence arose in the cave.
Everyone was looking at the zombie butler with a surprised expression, as if they had seen a strange creature.
[You talk a lot.]
Hersheva said with admiration.
[This is my first time seeing a butler talk so much! Amazing!]
Prince jumped up.
[Alaze. “Did your butler have such a chatty personality?”
When Erzsebet asked, Aladje wriggled and answered.
[Zombie butler. Only in the field you like. Prefer to chat.]
[…Noisy.]
Hehehehehe!
Peer shook his shoulders and laughed. Prince came forward.
[But have we ever used our heads and made calculations? Just bump into it! If you bump into something-]
Soon.
The eyes of everyone present turned to Simon.
[This guy will do something.]
Simon is the center of everyone.
The Ancient Undead possesses reason, but ultimately cannot exceed the limits of what the undead can think, both biologically and mentally.
However, the unexpectedness of humans as living creatures, and the strange things they do, always cause trouble in some way. That is why they are interested in humans and join hands with them.
“As you said.”
Simon stood up.
“I will try my best. “All captains, please concentrate on preparing for battle with the group.”
[Yes, corps commander!]
[Let’s do it!]
Everyone busily dispersed and left to control the undead under their command. Prince chuckled and picked up the still awkward zombie butler and moved with him.
The surroundings became quiet. Soon Simon also walks over and prepares in his own way.
“Simon.”
Kazan gestured. Simon looked back at him.
“yes?”
“The undead may not be interested, but it’s a story you need to hear.”
“ah. “I guess there’s something left to brief.”
Kazan held the back of his neck and closed his eyes.
“Yes, it is a human political problem.”
Simon slumped his shoulders with an ‘Ugh’ expression.
After all, the king and his wife, who are a walking bundle of political issues, were caught in a desperate situation, so there could not be no political issues.
And the reason Kazan bothered to bring up this story also meant that there were elements necessary for conquering Bell Heights.
“Nephthys also told me about it. “The princes claim to be kings, but they split up and fight each other?”
Kazan raised the corner of his mouth.
“The story must be quick.”
***
A day later, everything was ready.
Simon comfortably moved to the scene using the teleportation magic circle prepared by Keygen.
‘There it is.’
It was visible as soon as I arrived.
A rocky mountain rising high above the wasteland.
And the gray wall stretching above it. Inside, you can see ‘Bell Heights’, Shahed’s territory and the king’s hometown.
I know this painting from photos, but it was also my first time seeing it.
Countless military barracks located beneath the rocky cliffs of Bell Heights.
It was quite large. In the barracks surrounding the rocky mountain, you can hear horses neighing, people shouting, and the sound of rice being cooked.
‘They said it was the 2nd Prince’s troops surrounding that road.’
Simon checked Peer’s bone armor once again. He covered his face with a skull helmet and walked with a robe over his head.
Now that the fate of the King and Queen of the Shahed Kingdom is unclear, the situation in Shahed is like the eve of a storm. Currently, the king and his wife have three sons who could inherit the throne.
The most powerful prince occupied the Shahed palace. He declared himself ‘King’ and even issued wartime orders to control the situation.
The second prince, who was slightly outgunned, maintained his position as a ‘filial son’ to protect the cause. How can he, as a child, be happy in a comfortable royal palace when his father and mother are imprisoned in Bell Heights and are going through hardships? He puts on his armor and takes the lead in removing the gray wall in his parents’ presence.
However, the real reason is ‘concentration of military power’.
They are continuing to gather troops in the name of protecting the King and Queen. The moment it becomes clear that the king and queen are dead, the horses will turn and run towards the palace.
Shahed’s ministers and local forces are all divided into groups that support these two princes. There are three princes, but this one is said to be of little power, so they are treated as almost insignificant people.
“Who are you?”
While I was lost in my thoughts, Simon had already arrived in front of the military tent.
Slam!
Slam!
Behind the tent fence, countless bows were aimed at Simon.
Sreung!
visor!
Heavily armed soldiers were slowly surrounding Simon.
“I asked who it was! “Reveal your identity!”
An intruder who refuses to comply with the sentries’ demands. There would be no problem if they attacked right away, but the soldiers were overwhelmed by the atmosphere given off by this unidentified man.
‘shall we start.’
Dark blue eyes flashed inside Simon’s hood.
[Get out of the way.]
Simon’s words, borrowed from Peer’s voice, echoed around.
The faces of the soldiers who heard the cold voice immediately darkened. There were some whose spear tips trembled.
“What’s the fuss?”
I made a slight threat and the response came immediately. A man in fancy clothing was coming this way, accompanied by a group of necromancers.
Simon knew who he was at a glance.
‘2 Prince. ‘He came in person.’
Shahed’s image was a bit more traditional and edgy, but he was a high-ranking aristocrat who seemed to be painted in fine clothes and adorned with commonly seen precious metals.
Soon, a man who appeared to be a subject came and whispered something to him, and the second prince curled up the corners of his mouth.
“Are you the commander of that treacherous army? The rumored killer has arrived in person! There’s already been a lot of talk in the media about when it’s coming.”
He raised his arms.
“Can we talk?”
Awesome! chuck! chuck! Quickly!
Soldiers quickly began to surround the area.
[Shahed has no common sense.]
Simon slowly grabbed the hood and lowered it.
Soon the skull helmet covering his face flashed and his eyes glowed.
[Do not raise the tip of the spear while discussing the conversation. [It’s not because we can’t use our troops.]
The soldiers looked horrified by Simon’s fierceness.
The 2nd prince’s face became cold.
“Hey, I don’t think you can understand the mood. You are a criminal who has now been ordered to be killed. How dare you face the regular army…!”
“Excuse me, prince.”
Sigh. Just right.
An old necromancer appeared, holding a cane.
Behind him, a huge blood golem followed as if guarding him.
“Nothing good will come of provoking the Union corps commander here. “Please show generosity with the prince’s generous vessel.”
The prince tsk and clicked his tongue. The old necromancer spoke to Simon.
“Nice to meet you, Commander of the Legion of Betrayal. I’ve heard rumors that they’re tracking down the organization, but this is the royal family’s business. “It’s not a problem for outsiders.”
It seemed like someone I could communicate with had appeared.
Simon put his hand in his inner pocket and then took out a letter with Kizen’s seal on it.
[Received a request from the Witch of Death.]
At that name, the faces of the Shahed soldiers hardened even more. The old necromancer received the letter, read it, and nodded towards the second prince.
The 2nd prince tsk again and clicked his tongue.
“Then you should say that from the beginning.”
Simon quietly stared at the second prince.
Peer’s voice echoed in Simon’s head.
[Hehehehe! This man doesn’t like something about saving his parents!]
‘It seems like that.’
At a time when it has not yet been confirmed that the parents are dead, all the princes are fighting over the ‘throne’. If the king and queen come back alive, it is clear that the two princes will be in an awkward position.
They probably think that they have taken the throne for themselves, and many ministers and local nobles support them like kings.
Once you have tasted power, you can’t go back.
‘Because that’s power.’
However, there is a different reason why Simon found the second prince.
“I’m grateful that you came, Commander, but it’s probably in vain. No one can break through that gray wall….”
[Royal family emblem.]
“?”
Simon pointed to the second prince’s necklace.
[I think it would be helpful in the search.]
“What?”
Shahed’s royal families all have royal coats of arms.
It is said that sentences have the power to attract each other.
Kazan hinted that if we had this, it would be easier to replace where the king and queen were.
“hey! “There are degrees of profanity!”
2The prince was angry.
“This is proof that I am royalty…!”
Ugh-!
At that time, a dazzling light flashed behind the military tent.
The old necromancer and the second prince looked back with wincing expressions.
After a while.
Jump and jump.
“Nice to meet you all.”
Now a young man wearing a crown walked in. The facial expression with narrow eyes and raised corners of the mouth is impressive.
Simon immediately realized who it was.
‘Prince 1.’
“what? How did my brother end up here…!”
The second prince reacted in tears. The 1st Prince approached Simon with a bright smile on his face and the necromancer guard he led.
“Nice to meet you, Commander of the Legion of Betrayal.”
At that time, a knight came up and whispered to him.
Prince 1 nodded and spoke.
“I would like to express my gratitude as a child for saving Abamama and Eumamama. “How could I not help?”
Sreuk.
He pulled out the necklace, looked at the second prince, and raised the corners of his mouth.
“I will give you the royal emblem.”
***
Same time.
Keygen headquarters.
“mom! “How can you do that?”
Outside the conference room, Nephthys and Lorraine were having a serious conversation.
The voices were getting louder.
“Is it true that you sent Simon alone to Belle Heights?”
Nephthys tilted her head.
“Of course, if it’s Simon, it will be possible to liberate Belle Heights. No, if Simon can’t even do this, no calculation can be made.”
“Where can you replace such an irresponsible story!”
Lorraine huffed with an exasperated look on her face and then quickly turned her head.
“Lorraine! Where?”
Before I knew it, she appeared from the room carrying a large bag on her shoulder.
“I’m running away from home. I’m going to help Simon.”
