Talent Swallowing Magician Chapter 4

Mervinger's Shame [4]

Of course, he had written his hand on Elric's expedition side.

"If we wait a little more patiently, the legacy of the Mage Gate will come into the hands of this Belux, right? Whoops!"

Professor Verlux was able to calm the divergence in an instant and burst into laughter.

As soon as Elric and Sean reached their destination Karagul Cave, they had to frown.

"Why are you guys here?"

There were already passengers.

Not just one or two people, but more than 20 people.

"Why? Of course, two of my classmates said they were having a hard time, so they all went out together like this."

At that moment, the leader of the group put on his glasses and stepped forward with a grin.

Long red hair and dazzling green eyes. It was a face that Elric knew well.

Levon.

It was only for a short time, but I was still close with Elric and Sean. But the guy who turned his back on El Rick when he found out he had arthrosis… … .

He was now a senior researcher at the 'Magical Astronomy Institute' led by Professor Verlux.

And so did the other three people around.

As the motivation for entering the school, he is currently at Verlux.

They were the researchers under the professor.

Perhaps they did not have the courage to make eye contact with Elric, they slightly turned their heads to look away, or greeted each other with 'Hello?'

Unless you are an idiot, you can easily guess why they are here.

"you..!"

Sean stared at them with a face full of annoyance.

Levin flinched for a moment. Although he might appear proud to Elric, Sean was a being he was reluctant to confront.

The background is also the background, but first of all, the rank is different.

Still, this mission is a special order given by Professor Verlux.

He had to complete it.

'Anyway, I'm the same guy who rode Professor Verlux's line, right? The only thing I trample on now is the shame of the Mervingers. Let's not worry about Sean.'

Livan tightened his eyes and twisted the tip of one of his lips.

"As you can see, not only us, but experts were invited to help with the exploration? The dean is that much you

It means that you trust and support them, so please accept them happily."

Elric looked at the guys that Riven had brought in as experts.

Clearly, the tools he had on hand were those needed for exploration.

Binoculars that detect infrared rays, a pickaxe equipped with various functions, a compass that notifies the appearance of monsters and guides the way.

But Elric didn't miss the unusual look in their eyes.

'Are they mercenaries who specialize in this kind of work? It's weak, but the magic scent

It seems to be blowing a little… … . If anything really comes out of the cave, I think they're just going to intercept it.'

Elric narrowed his eyes.

'Dean, if you say it will come out like this until the end, I can't help it either.'

I was just going to end the election to the point of ruining the presidential election, but… … . It wasn't until he came out so blatantly that he didn't want to just sit still.

'But for now, I'm just concentrating on exploration.'

It will not be too late to think about how to deal with them at that time.

'Still, I can't just go overboard… …

For a moment, Elric rolled up one lip.

"exactly. I never thought that the dean would be so supportive. There, you choose a special motive and send it to me."

"Yes? So, let's all go up to the cave together… …

"So, Rivan."

Elric smiled cynically and pointed to the area around him with his chin.

"I think it is necessary to investigate the ecosystem around the cave before starting the exploration. Can you clean up the herbs within a kilometer?"

"I, all… ?"

"Yes. All. you alone Is it possible'?"

As soon as the words were finished, Levin's complexion brightened.

Naturally, though.

Prior to exploring the Mana Spot, it was most important to conduct a preliminary exploration and investigation of the surrounding area.

It usually takes several weeks to several months, and the number of people required is about several dozen.

But do you do it yourself?

In such a steep mountain area, if you did, you would inevitably suffer from bone disease.

As Riven, I had no choice but to ask.

"I am the leader of the expedition here… … . Well, if you don't want to hear it, you can go back."

Elric's casual words made Riven's mouth shut.

The expedition leader's words were absolute, so if he didn't listen, he had no choice but to be expelled.

'After all, this guy is not turning into an enemy.'

For a brief moment, Sean had sympathy for Levin.

Somehow, it felt like Elric's personality had grown significantly since coming here.

[Sinawi of Mana]

Along with Sean's chant, a bright beam of light erupted from the crystal ball he was holding and spilled over the entire mountainside.

'It's just like this, and you'll end up using a magic search tool… …

Sean laughed bitterly.

A magic search tool is a very expensive tactical magic tool used to detect hidden wizards during the Warsaw War.

I thought that Elric was very diligent in tearing up Professor Verlux's sprain.

'You must be very angry by now.'

That's when a bitter smile grew on Sean's lips.

Wow!

Sean received a huge shock as if his head was going to break for a moment.

far away

Near the foot of the mountain, I could see a huge golden column soaring high.

"Shawn!"

"Maybe, this is… … ?"

"Uh, uh, a magical field of enormous size! Oh no, the barrier… … !"

Astonishment spread over the eyes of Levan and others, who were watching Sean.

Magical search has a different color depending on the level of mana. Among them, golden light means the highest grade of the high mage level.

And if it's that size and size…

"Oh, really, there's a dragon's nest over there…'?"

"Everyone, be quiet! Let's go."

Sean clenched his teeth with a pale complexion and shouted.

Elric noticed that he had suffered quite a few internal injuries, but immediately moved the expedition.

"Explorator, move to the destination before the pillar of light goes out."

I wanted to check Sean's condition, but if I wasted time here, I'm sure I'll hear some nagging later.

pot _

Elric was able to reach the destination while carrying one of the expedition members on the back.

However, the place where the pillars of light were formed was a flat plateau.

Unlike the surrounding area full of dense forest, it is a wasteland where not even a single tree or grass grows.

There were not even common rocks.

"What is this… … ?"

When the expedition members didn't see any cracks or caves that they expected to be there, they looked puzzled for a moment.

"Here."

Elric quickly scans the area and points to a spot.

"[flare]

Sean threw a fireball right over it.

When it exploded, the ground sank with a huge explosion as if a landslide had occurred.

Then, a large amount of blood was revealed.

It was so big and deep, it seemed that dozens of people could fit in it at once.

And at the same time, the huge amount of magical scent that was so strong and exuded at the same time was enough to make the wizards dizzy for a moment.

Although they managed to balance, they had no choice but to look at Elric with astonished eyes.

'Uh, how can you pinpoint the location with just one look?'

'It's really the failing student I knew… … ?'

What the magic seeker detects is only an approximate location to the last, and cannot pinpoint an exact point.

It was no different from ordinary professors and assistants.

So, prior surveys and other specialists

I need some help… Is it all useless?

In the meantime, even if Elric was good at studying, his comrades, who had only considered it a shame of the famous magician, had to feel his heart pounding.

Sean raised his nose high as if it was his own business, as if asking such motives, 'Now do you know that?'

"Enter."

Elric didn't think much of it and moved to the inside of Donghyeol.

"Here… You said dragons came and went in and out in ancient times, right?"

"deep. very."

"Huh. I'm too lazy Even if I turn on the magic, the cold won't go away."

The cave boasted a very large scale.

Much more than it looked from the outside.

The expedition team was completely overwhelmed by its majestic scale throughout its journey through the cave.

The ancient dragons have already completely disappeared.

Even though it has been hidden for over a thousand years, the magical scent that permeates deeply throughout the cave made the wizards choke their breath.

It was as if yesterday had a strong feeling that a dragon might have been in and out of this place.

'Everyone already has no doubt that this is a dragon's nest.'

Sean followed Elric as he walked down the street, claiming to be the leader, and as he watched the expedition's reactions, he grinned.

He must have heard the orders from Professor Verlux to disturb Elric.

In spite of this, it was already a struggle to lose itself.

Sean thought there was nothing he could do.

'Anyway, they're also wizards.'

Pioneers digging into the unknown, seeking knowledge, and pursuing the truth.

Of course, a wizard could not help but be fascinated by the mysticism of the existence of a dragon. In front of that, the political position would be useless.

'It's too cold anyway. How can the magical barriers spread throughout the nest be this strong? I used to live here

What kind of existence is it?'

Sean tried to rub his forearm with both hands one after another, but he couldn't fight the cold. Every time I took a breath, a lot of breath came out.

The other wizards ferociously rotated the circles at once, or tried to manifest fire attribute magic, but the cold that penetrated to the bone did not go away.

Diamond Dragon.

Jewel Dragon (W Stone Dragon).

It is said that the academia has been skeptical of its existence for a very long time, and only recently has the classification been completed.

It was clear that he must have possessed tremendous magical powers during his lifetime.

'Maybe it can be compared to gold, which deals with light, or red, which has the largest size.'

Sean was going to take a closer look at the things he could see first.

Then.

'What else is he doing?'

Belatedly, when he saw Elric busy writing something in his notebook, he put on an absurd expression on his face.

Everything is written in runic characters.

it was

A colloquial language that even mage scholars are reluctant to use because it is complicated and difficult.

What kind of structure… … .

"What is that?"

"Drinking solution. I was looking for the sun."

Sean asked, lowering his voice to the minimum with a flash of thought.

"Are you really looking for the structural formula of the barrier?"

A very simple answer.

But Sean was trembling.

Analyzing the magic implemented by dragons?

Even though I wanted to scream.

In fact, what Elric was seeing was a much larger and vast world.

'Here… Nodajiya.'

I've been thinking that way since the moment I entered the backyard.

Just by being here, my eyes were wide open.

The fractal structure that makes up the barrier.

Spirit art that circulates air.

Jewel magic that is embedded in stone walls and expresses various magics.

Various traps to block intruders, and all kinds of bizarre shapes and characters that contain mysterious magic.

Even a connection model that allows these various magics to move organically with each other… … .

Elric was able to see, feel, and smell all those things, thanks to the sensitive sense characteristic of his family history.

What is the appearance of magics with different origins and methods, interlocking with each other like cogs in a huge system?

It was enough to make him intoxicated, just like when he first knew what the universe was made of.

'This is the magic of aphorisms I've only heard of.'

The things I had studied and learned over the years seemed to be dismantled and reassembled in a new form in front of the vast worldview given by the verb magic.

ecstasy (m meals.

Or drive.

Without knowing it, the moment of Gi-yeon that everyone wants a magician has come.
