Chapter 69
69. Don’t worry.
I’ve been through a lot since I fell on the Azul Continent, but
“This is what happens.”
This was the first time he was hanging from a building 36 meters above the ground.
Woo woo.
It was a strange feeling because there was nothing but cold air under my feet.
‘People say they come to the fantasy world to cast magic and wield swords.’
Why are you making a disaster movie?
‘Yamae Healer is like that.’
Kang Seung-hyun laughed and took out a stamina potion. The left hand holds the crossbow, so only the right hand can be used freely.
‘I somehow managed to succeed…’
Kang Seung-hyun looked up. The arrow hooked into the wall of the mage tower and the bandage tied to the arrow were connected to the crossbow.
‘The handmade bandages are made from weeds, but they’re made with the [Cloth Making] skill, so they won’t tear easily.’
[Cloth making] A skill picked from roulette. The bandage made from this is quite tough, so it can be used as a rope.
‘The problem is the hook…’
The quality of the hook was not good because it was made in a hurry with an ordinary metal skewer. Right now, it’s driven into the wall with Freea’s crossbow, but you don’t know when it will break.
‘It’s not going to be a waste of time.’
If I linger here, I might end up in a free fall. Kang Seung-hyun put the potion in his mouth and started to climb carefully.
gigg.
As I grabbed the bandages and climbed up, I heard a metallic sound from a hook in the wall. It was the sound of a hook bending.
‘Just hang on.’
Kang Seung-hyun began to climb the horse tower rope with strength in both arms and legs.
gigg.
profit.
The higher I climbed, the louder the metallic sound. Seunghyun Kang clicked his tongue and thought.
‘How great would it be if this was a real hook shot? Then it will automatically pull you up…’
But like a good healer, the hook shot is also good. There was no such function, so I had to climb it myself.
‘found.’
Kang Seung-hyeon climbed up, relying on the bandage like a rope, and found a balcony on the 9th floor. You can enter the building by going through it.
widely!
Seunghyun Kang jumped towards the balcony and grabbed onto the railing. The hook in the wall barely held on until then.
Kiki-Ik….
Pargag!
When I tried to hang on the railing, it broke.
‘Still, it lasted longer than I thought.’
Seunghyun Kang let go of the crossbow he was holding and clung to the railing with both hands.
Empty!
Whoa!!
As the broken hook fell down, the crossbow attached to the bandage also fell.
The missed crossbow disappeared into the lake beneath my feet.
[Freeah’s crossbow disappears.]
Fortunately, Freeah’s crossbow is not a normal weapon, but a summoning skill weapon. It can be re-summoned with a single flick of the hand.
‘If it wasn’t for the skill, I would have almost searched the bottom of the lake to find a crossbow.’
So Kang Seung-hyeon used to handle the weapon he had chosen the most harshly among the items he possessed, such as hitting it like a blunt weapon and throwing it away.
‘Looking at it this way, the lake is quite large and deep.’
Kang Seung-hyeon saw the scenery under his feet for the first time at this time.
A huge lake surrounding the towering Mage Tower. And the mage’s city of Camar, visible under the Mage Tower, came into view.
‘Is that a Camar?’
Camar is a lake city built on the Pitsta Lake. In order to go out to other areas, you have to pass the Pitchta Bridge that connects Camar and Makaroch Forest.
‘Or cross the lake by boat.’
Across the lake in the distance was a red forest. The blue lake and the disparate bright red color made me feel uncomfortable somewhere.
‘Just by looking at it, it looks like monsters are appearing.’
I don’t know the geography of this area, but to return to Hind Village, it would be easier to go through the Makaroch Forest.
‘Wagons can’t cross the lake, and Mr. Kim Ho-jeong is said to be seasick.’
Kang Seung-hyeon decided to get a carriage from Kamar to Hind Village once the Mage Tower incident was settled.
‘Now that we’ve finished our tour, shall we go up soon?’
Seunghyun Kang grabbed the railing and climbed onto the balcony. I was hanging in the air all the time, and when I tried to step on the ground, I felt my body lose all strength.
jump! jump!
Kang Seung-hyun sighed and drank the stamina potion.
“As expected, people have to live on the ground.”
“A certain adventurer… Are we alive?”
I heard Lijay’s voice behind me. Kang Seung-hyun said while giving Lijay a bottle of stamina potion.
“You can open your eyes now.”
Lijay carefully opened his eyes. Now, Kang Seung-hyun was neither suspended in the air nor fell to the floor. He had safely returned to the Magic Tower.
“I told you. I’ll be sure to save you.”
-It was not difficult to go down from the 9th floor of the Magic Tower to the 1st floor. This is because the stairs are not blocked.
“I’m scared, what the hell is going on?”
“It will be fine. This is the Crimson Magic Tower!”
“Another explosion!”
When I came out to the entrance of the magic tower outside the first floor, I saw many wizards gathered. All of them were people who evacuated from the magic explosion.
“excuse me!”
“He came out!”
As soon as Seunghyun Kang came out the entrance, he heard a familiar voice.
“Adventurer is here!”
“Adventurer!”
The brown-haired kid and the yellow-haired kid. It was Lucy and Taris who had evacuated earlier. The two little boys pulled on the robe of the wizard standing by.
“That, that… I’m Ihere, who is in charge of basic magic…”
The white-faced wizard gasped for breath. It looks like a teacher for little kids.
“If it’s Rize, you’re all right.”
“Professor, I am fine. I survived thanks to the adventurer.”
Kang Seung-hyun showed Li J, who was carrying him on his back. His leg is bandaged, but other than that, he has no serious injuries.
“Thank you, thank you… Thank you so much for saving the children…”
Iheer bowed down with tears in his eyes.
“Right now Lijay is crushed by a bookshelf and has a broken leg. Right now there are no symptoms of reverse magic… Please call a healer quickly.”
“I see!”
Iher immediately went to call a healer.
In fact, Yame Healer can treat it directly, but
‘because there’s no way to relieve the pain.’
I don’t know if it’s an adult, but if it’s a child, it’s better to leave it to a healer. Because kids can’t stand being sick.
“Be comfortable.”
A wide cloth was spread on the floor and Lijay was laid on it, and the two little boys approached cautiously.
“Leejay… is your leg hurt?”
“Does it hurt a lot?”
“I’m okay. You can heal now.”
Lijay laughed and said,
“I’m sorry, Lijay… it’s because of me…”
“I know how to use a magic shield
… I know…”
“Waaaaaang!”
“Don’t cry guys… I’m fine…”
Lucy and Taris hugged Lijay and cried.
“It’s really okay… uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
Lijay also hugged his friends while shed tears he had been holding back.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
“Woooooooooooooooooooo!!”
“Waaaaaang!”
No matter how mature and genius magic skills you have, a child is a child. Kang Seung-hyun watched the three little boys hugging and crying.
– Later, the healer brought by Ihere treated Lijay’s leg injury. Lijay said thank you several times.
“I think Adventurer is really great. My body is still shaking…”
Although the leg injury has healed, he says he can’t stand up because his body isn’t strong yet.
“Adventurer-nim, you stand still without wavering even after going through such a tremendous event.”
“I went through a lot of incidents while doing this job…”
If I was surprised by these things, I would have died long ago.
Seunghyun Kang laughed and said.
“And Lijay was formidable.”
How common are sorcerers who wear a magic shield to save their friends? And that’s when the young guy gave up his own life.
“That’s actually kind of weird.”
Lijay, who had been listening to Kang Seunghyun’s words, said with a firm face.
“What?”
“Now I can create up to 3 magic shields at the same time.”
Lijay has as much magic as an adult, but he’s still young, so he can’t really handle much magic.
“The more you use the same magic over and over again, the more you can improve your magic power.”
It is said that Lijay has been practicing the skill repeatedly in order to learn the timing of the magic shield. Of course, it is not a training for low-level wizards, but a training method for intermediate wizards.
“My friends can also use magic shields, but I thought they would panic because of the sudden situation.”
When the magical explosion occurred, Lijay decided that his friends would not be able to use magic shields.
“Because it’s hard to deal with mages who don’t have real combat experience.”
Indeed, the judgment was correct. Frightened and embarrassed by the explosion, Lucy and Taris were unable to draw out their magic.
So Lijay cast a magic shield on the two of them and tried to take out a magic shield to protect himself.
“But the magic consumption suddenly increased and I couldn’t use the shield.”
“Consumption increased?”
Kang Seung-hyun, who had been listening to Lijay’s story in silence, furrowed his eyebrows.
“Could it be that the magic power system is broken?”
“Perhaps.”
Lijay nodded. He said that if there was a problem with the center of mana, the amount of mana extracted from people would have increased.
“In addition, the range of mana absorption is expanding. Originally, you wouldn’t absorb magic at the entrance of the magic tower.”
After listening to Lijay’s words and using the [Observation Eye], a blurry glowing line appeared under her feet.
In a bizarre form, as if it were plucked.
‘The shape is strange… but it’s a magical linking circuit.’
A situation in which connection circuits that did not originally exist were created. It is unlikely that someone installed it on purpose, so it seems to have been caused by a power system error.
“In addition, the closer you get to the center of the magical energy, the more magical energy is absorbed.”
This is the reason why the Mage Tower does not carelessly bring people into the center of magic power. People with less magical power will lose all their magical power as soon as they enter the center and collapse.
‘Then, Mr. Kim Ho-jeong and Professor Tansel’s party…’
They headed towards the center of magic first. Seeing as there has been no news so far, it means that something has happened.
‘Then this isn’t the time for me to be like this.’
break is over Seunghyun Kang stood up.
“Thank you for letting me know.”
“You want to go to the magic center?”
“I have to go. Because we have to save people.”
If something is not done with the Mage Tower power system, it will affect not only the Mage Tower wizards here, but also the city of Camar.
“That adventurer…”
Then Lijay grabbed Kang Seung-hyeon.
“If you’re going to the Magic Center… I think this will help.”
Then, he took out a magic scroll from his bosom.
“This?”
“It’s a Magic Pollution Scroll. I made it myself.”
The effect of magic contamination is to dye the surrounding magic with black magic when used. Originally, the skills used by black magicians were put into the scroll.
“The power system of the Crimson Mage Tower cannot absorb dark magic. If you use this at the center of magic… you can temporarily stop the power system.”
Instead, the skill duration is quite short. It’s not an official product, it’s a scroll made for Mage Tower assignments.
“It’s really short… It may not be of much help…”
“That’s enough. I will write well.”
Seunghyun Kang put the scroll in his inventory. And without hesitation, he headed to the magic tower’s underground magic center.
– Jerk-jerk-jerk.
As I descended the stairs, I felt a powerful magic power. And at the same time, I felt an unpleasant sensation different from magical power.
‘It’s a dirty feeling, like someone is watching.’
I looked around and saw nothing. Even if you use the [Observation Eye], you can only see the magic linking circuit.
After going down the stairs, I saw a door that was firmly closed.
bang!
Seunghyun Kang kicked in the door and entered. Large and small magic circles drawn in the center of the room, and crystals shining blue in the center. And I was able to find people who fell down.
“Is that a magical power system?”
“Ugh…”
The others were unconscious, but only one was conscious. It was Shuire’s teacher, Professor Tansel.
“Professor Tansel.”
“Don’t come this way…!”
The moment I got closer, an unpleasant sensation swept under my feet.
[Observation Eye]
When he hurriedly turned on the [Observation Eye], he saw that a bizarre magical linking circuit was stuck to his ankle.
“I’m late…!”
About 20 minutes ago.
Professor Tansel and his party entered the magic center.
But the moment they set foot in the center of magical power
, uhhh.
An ominous aura permeated the body, and the deformed magic link circuit clung to the body and began to absorb magic.
The connection circuit was invisible to the naked eye, and the rate of absorption was so fast that people collapsed without resistance.
“Sorry…if only I had spoken a little sooner…!”
Professor Tansel sighed in despair. Kang Seung-hyeon also had magic connection circuits wrapped around his body, so he would end up in the same situation as everyone else.
“Oh, it’s okay.”
“uh…?”
However, far from collapsing, Kang Seung-hyun stood with a normal face.
“Because it won’t work for me.”
