Chapter 308

Cogs (4)

Outer road at dawn with cold fog.

The asphalt surface, which had been dug here and there and was silent, suddenly turned red, and dozens of lasers exploded and soared into the sky.

Aaaaaaang!!

Two figures protruding through the explosion.

Even Lundel, whose entire body was in tatters, and Lennok, who came out after him sweating profusely.

Lennok took out a cigarette, caught his breath, and laughed.

“Didn’t you say that you meant to hold out until I suffocated to death? I’m impatient.”

[Huh, I thought I was breathing while filtering the heat from the beginning... ... .]

“You look good.”

Deed Dede Deuk!!

At the same time as Lennok’s horse fell, dozens of mechanical tentacles, Derby, climbed up on the smashed asphalt and glared at Rundel at the same time.

Red laser light shone between the jaws of dozens of snakes the size of a car.

A pile of tentacles wide open like a peacock. However, the scene was intended and created by Lundel himself.

Lundel laughed at the sight of the snake that had now turned its mouth toward him.

[I cut all the wires long ago, but it’s moving this far... ... What the hell are you doing?]

Installable heavy equipment parasitic magic bag Jeunesse’s snake.

Its power and ability to make arbitrary judgments are truly enormous, but there is an inherent limitation that it does not work unless it is installed in place and not supplied with a power source.

However, Lennok was ignoring such shortcomings and was pushing Lundel by raising the artillery battery installed in the basement of the coal mine to the ground.

Lenok, who was staring at Lundel, said with a grin.

“It’s replacing the role of a battery.”

Paji Jiji!!!

The electricity flowing from Lennok’s hands flowed into the bottom of the pile of mechanical tentacles that had been precisely severed.

Perfect conversion without any error with the power that fits the size and purpose of the tentacles.

At the same time, it resets the defense system of the tentacle that Darby subdued to target Lundel.

[X feet... ... !!]

Along with Rundel’s death, the laser shot from Jeunesse’s snake covered the entire outer road and swept along the center line.

Kwagwagwa!!

A rain of lasers fired from behind. Lennok, who was comfortably watching Lundel frantically run away, asked Darby.

“Dabi. Are you done with the analysis?”

[The output and operating principle of the parts with the simple space implementation function are recorded.]

Darby immediately answered through Lennok’s earphones.

[However, it seems that direct contact is necessary to take away control of that remodeled body. Hacking is difficult without circuit intervention as it uses an independent system.]

“I don’t think you need to worry about that.”

Lennok, who looked away from Lundel, who had disappeared from the laser bombardment, answered.

“It looks like he’s running out of energy, so he’ll be in trouble sooner or later.”

In a situation like this, if it was Lundel’s last chance to choose.

Kwaaaaang!!

Wouldn’t it be an ultra-close combat in which the simple space is projected with full force?

An interspace leap that flew dozens of meters. Lundel growled as he shattered Lennok’s shield with the beam blades drawn from both hands.

[I’m sorry, but I’ll leave the data collection behind.]

“Was that something to be sorry for me?”

[Instead, if you tear up your corpse and take it home, won’t your friends who work in bionics do something for you?]

Keying!!

The beam blade sliced through Lennok’s shield without hesitation and dug in close to it, deflecting the bombardment of lasers.

As the shield surrounding Lennok’s body compresses, it rotates to receive the amount of light emitted.

Kiki profit!!

The shield was unnaturally pushed away with an annoying noise that sounded like scraping metal, and on the contrary, Lennok’s bare body began to be exposed as it was.

[I told you.]

It’s like a fleeting moment that pierces your brain.

Confidence mingled with outright ridicule.

[It’s no use?]

The space occupied by the shield is pushed into a simple space, changing its position.

Transforms the position of the blade and shield entirely by pushing through the entire space. The beam blade wielded by Lundel shot towards Lennok’s abdomen as if being sucked in.

? Profit!!

Dozens of battles that cross each other in the blink of an eye. A move that makes the opponent’s battle meaningless by calculating the realization of the simple space and the congestion of the space at the same time.

If you push the shield aside and attack through the momentary spatial interference, normal exchange of air and defense becomes impossible for Lennok.

The unexpected interference of the laws of physics that Lundel meant was just this kind of watering.

No matter how hard he tried to counter Rundel’s attacks with shields and lightning magic, if Rundel pushed the space as he wanted, he would have no choice but to leave an empty gap in the end.

In addition, if even Lundel’s location cannot be properly identified, it is impossible for Lennok to block Lundel’s attack in a head-to-head confrontation.

[Start with the heart!!]

Wedge liquid!!

Lundel, who appeared behind Lennok in an instant, pushed the beam blade lightly.

Lennok reacted immediately, turned the shield back and struck a thunderbolt, but all the attacks were pushed back as if leaning to one side.

Conversely, Rundel’s blade curves like a half moon and aims at Lennok’s chest from the front.

It is a level of magic that divides the space into two branches and pushes them in different directions with one simple space.

For someone seeing it for the first time, it would be impossible to even react to this deadly move.

However, Lennok nodded calmly even as he watched the brilliance of the blade approaching right in front of him.

“As expected.”

[What?]

Kiyiyiik!!

At that moment, the shields that had been pushed to both sides of Lennok bizarrely bent inward, blocking Rundel’s blade in an instant.

Tuong!!

[...] ... !!!!]

Jersey close to the moment. But Lundell, too, realizing what Lennok had done, shouted with a terrified scream.

[Did you predict the amount of space being pushed and bend the shield accordingly... ... !!]

If you created a simple space and pushed the space all the way to one side, all you had to do was move the shield and magic that Lennok had implemented according to the amount of pushing.

However, this is possible only when we can predict and react to the moment and distance that space is pushed out.

If he fails to predict even once, he will give up his life on the spot.

Even though Lennok knew how Lundel was trying to hit the vital spot, he was rather waiting for his unique spatial interference.

“You understand why I am disclosing this information to you.”

Palad said.

“Because I thought it was necessary to inform those who cooperated with the operation that all of this was not just a coup by the National Guard.”

Silence passed.

“Gear side. A heretic son of magic engineering research who was rejected even in the mechanical city of Machina. An elite, armed with superior brains and modified bodies.”

Palad continued to speak to the silent Freelancers.

“I don’t know why they were involved in this incident, but it became clear that they were directly involved in this incident. We may have to deal with enemies beyond the level of stopping the fort.”

With those words, the picture on the screen changed again and a satellite image taken in the far sky appeared.

“In the operation to attack the mobile fortress that will begin from now on.”

Woooo!!

A gigantic steel fortress that spits out an inexplicable rumble as the ground crumbles.

The shape slowly but surely moves forward, emitting dazzling magic light in all directions.

The number of gun barrels and armors hung on all sides of the fort was in the thousands.

The majesty of a strategic weapon designed to build a frontline and create a deterrent line beyond the level of forming a network with a single body was there.

The noise burst through the screen and filled the auditorium.

Palad left the noise for obvious reasons and opened his mouth.

“I will tell you in advance here. I hope that those who are falling out will tell me as soon as possible.”

“What do you mean?”

An elderly man sitting in the front row expressed his displeasure.

“You mean that some of us might get stabbed in the back while working?”

“... ... .”

“No one would come out of this place like that unless he wants his head pierced by the Hyeongung after returning from vacation.”

“That means that the situation outside right now is urgent.”

The man fell silent at Palad’s plain reply.

“While you were killing the members, I was waiting near Area 13 with a group of other agents. I thought that if the Defense Forces Command were targeting Area 13, they would move towards it while the intelligence forces were being killed. What do you think the outcome would have been?”

Without a chance to reply, Palad continued.

“there was nothing. From the beginning, District 13 was not even in the mind of the command. Their purpose was only to buy time until they advanced the mobile fort to the vicinity of the megalopolis.”

“That means... ... .”

Only then did the people who understood what Palad was saying nodded.

The agent did not simply plan a strategy to deal with the mobile fortress.

They were moving to find out the true purpose of the command based on the basis of observing the reaction of the opponent astutely while killing the spy unit.

“This means that the purpose of the Defense Force Command is likely to be in the vicinity of undeveloped Balkans, rather than in an enclosed area.”

“Exactly.”

At Panoa’s comment, Hina nodded.

“The not-short grace period of 15 days is a lie to hide the real purpose... ... . At the same time, it must have been an idea to advance near the undeveloped district while causing chaos inside the city and carrying out diversionary operations.”

It is highly likely that the real destination itself is related to the goal of Gearside, which has joined hands with the Defense Forces Command.

I wasn’t sure what it was right now, but it was clear that the command had to stop it from getting close to the greenfields.

“Most of the field agents, agents who are not bound by the ban, are out on the outskirts of the city and trying to figure out the movement of the mobile fort. The stopover is most likely near the satellite city of Delta.”

Palad, who grabbed the microphone again, continued.

“I’ll give you half a day to prepare. Until then, all those who remain here in this conference room will go out of the undeveloped district and join the operation to attack the mobile fortress. Anyone with questions?”

“I feel that the power is excessively insufficient.”

Illya, who had been keeping her eyes on the video of Gearside’s combatants being captured, spoke abruptly.

“We succeeded in killing the special forces of the National Guard, but according to what has been discussed so far, it was just a part of turning our attention to the inside of the megalopolis. The core force of the real National Guard will still be stationed near the Mobile Fortress.”

“so?”

“Lieutenant General Treppen, who commands the headquarters, is a high-level physical person... ... . The three remaining wardens under him have also officially reached level 7, and the subordinate colonels are basically people who know how to change the nature of magic freely.”

There is nothing particularly secret about the strength of the National Guard.

An armed group directly under the city government that guarded the outermost boundary of the megalopolis of Balkan.

After walking downhill endlessly for 20 years, it is natural that there are still a large number of provincial-level superhumans and military-level abilities, even though it has been a long time since their power and reputation have been exhausted.

Excluding the 8th-level monsters called out of specification, superhumans of military rank or higher have always been treated as a major force within the city.

“Assuming that Gearside participates in the war, no matter how optimistically you look at it, the situation is insufficient... ... . It seems difficult to predict whether this side will win.”

Her words seemed to pour cold water on the heated atmosphere. However, it was an issue that must be addressed here.

The important thing is not to block the advance of the mobile fortress, even at the cost of one’s life.

In the process of attacking the mobile fortress, eradicating the main executives of the headquarters, and even crushing Gearside’s plan, to return alive with full force.

Unlike agents who risk their lives to maintain order and public order in this city, isn’t that the process that freelancers should consider more important than anything else?

It was a very important issue whether there was a chance to win or not, apart from stepping out for the success of this job right away.

In this operation, there are only a few people, including Lennok, who can deal with the Defense Forces Command.

In the end, in order to successfully complete this task, you will have to deal directly with key executives, including the general of the headquarters.

However, even after hearing Illya’s sharp question, Palad readily nodded.

“That is a very accurate point.”

“... ... .”

“At the time of the National Guard Command coup, both Senator Mayer and I were aware of the problem. That’s why, until the last assassination plot, we were moving in different directions by dividing our roles.”

Palad laughed confidently.

“A 7th-level Aspect Wizard who is not bound by the prohibition laws in this megalopolis and can stand up for the well-being and order of the city.”

Squeak!

With those words, the door on the side of the auditorium opened and someone slowly walked in.

“She will be the last participant in this operation.”

Bright blonde hair down to her back and blue eyes like the sea. A young woman wearing a simple shirt and a low-saturated blue suit.

However, the momentum of the magical energy flowing from its body is so strong that it cannot be pushed back by anyone in this place.

“My name is Aris Richellen.”

As soon as Pallad slipped away, she stepped onto the podium and opened her mouth.

“It’s the first time we’re together in a place like this, but as the situation is, we have to endure each other’s discomfort. Please take good care of me.”

Deputy Director of the Agent, Palad, sold his feet and searched for reinforcements in all directions, and the result was not in vain.

As a result, he has been more successful than anyone else in the city in bringing in reinforcements fit for the job.

Sinclair’s greatest talent. A chair professor at Rabatenon University. A monster who has completed the hierarchy at the age of mid-to-late 20s.

Recognized as a master of diversifying elemental conversion magic, he is the most famous and talented person in the city.

He had succeeded in recruiting Aris Richellen for this operation.

The eyes of Aris and Lennok, who raised their heads, met at the same time.

“... ... .”

Lennok, who broke out in a cold sweat, averted his gaze.
