chapter 30
Man Eater
In fact, from the time I received the request, there were not just one or two things that I had doubts about.
However, when Shiyoon conclusively confirmed that suspicion, it was when a man named Lee Jin showed him the result of using the search magic.
‘I can’t fool my eyes even if others don’t know.’
Choi Si-yoon was unrivaled in his understanding of magic formulas thanks to his characteristic ‘thin sea power’.
He said it was a reproduction of the results of his search magic, but in Siyoon’s eyes, the technique he used was subtly different from the actual one.
To be precise, it was more like something manipulated by overlaying another spell on the result of the search magic.
Perhaps the building’s internal structure was real, and the signs indicating the location of the blue dragon gangsters were the result of the fabricated spell.
If this isn’t a trap, and if he really is the head of Eun-kyung’s service, there’s no way he’ll show him the location of the non-existent Blue Dragon gangsters as search results.
‘In addition, the overly quiet material warehouse was also strange.’
Si-yoon, who was suspicious of that, used the characteristic ‘thin sea power’ toward the sight in front of him.
A window where not a single light leaked out, a chilly atmosphere beyond silence, traces of a fierce battle that had been erased but remained.
And the faint traces left as if dozens of people had come and gone, even the subtle flow of magical power that had been subtly misaligned from before.
Thanks to his supernatural ability to literally analyze the scene in front of his eyes, including buildings, he was able to see even the smallest details.
Crucially, the writers who said they would deal with the Blue Dragon faction inside were more wary of Si-yoon.
As if he was the real target.
In addition, the neat and sophisticated movements they showed like the military were not something that could be imitated by small and medium-sized companies.
‘It’s probably true that the blue dragon blue people occupied this place for some reason.’
That was what the traces around the warehouse were saying.
‘Did they even make a deal?’
The Blue Dragon faction will take care of it on their own, so instead, send a nomination request to him in the name of Eun-Kyung Service…
Perhaps even the blue dragon faction could have been their owner.
“You came here knowing it was a trap? ha ha ha. Are you bluffing under these circumstances?”
Chief Lee Jin pushed up his glasses with his middle finger and laughed at him.
“This is why I can’t work as a non-regular worker.”
There, Siyoon smiled unconsciously.
‘So you’re saying you’re a full-time employee?’
How easy it is for you to blow information on yourself even when you are still.
In a corporate state, regular workers and irregular workers are no different from a kind of status, like aristocrats and lowly people.
The term full-time job must mean that he is at least from inside the inner wall, not outside the inner wall like the 4th building.
He poured magic into the automatic pistol he held in his hand.
“I think you are misunderstanding something. Didn’t you think it might be you guys who crawled into the trap on their own?”
When Siyoon responded calmly, the head of the department hardened his lips.
“During the 30 minutes this closed barrier is in place, neither of you guys can escape from this warehouse.”
With a click, the revolver’s stop was turned back.
“You don’t have to chase those annoying runaways, and it’s the best environment to wipe them all out at once.”
now he is talking
You guys must have set this barrier with that thought too, but that applies to me as well.
It’s a statement that can come out because you have the confidence that you are much stronger than everyone here.
Soon, the head of the department burst into laughter as if it were absurd.
“Hey, this was a really funny kid. Hey guys! Are you all wearing earplugs?!”
“”Yes!!””
The services that inject magical power into the demonic sword as if they had waited with a loud answer.
“You can kill it, but if you don’t mind, leave the head. We need to extract information about whether that is a real Magic gun.”
The chief added, lightly relaxing the muscles in his neck.
“Don’t be scared when you hear that you have subdued Kim Jun-hyeok! I heard that the woman Iarin was there.”
He said while pinching Siyoon.
“In a word, that bastard was just a bus bug.”
Siyoon’s eyes narrowed.
‘Do you know that Iarin was there?’
How many people know that Eugene’s true identity was Lee Arin?
In addition, it seemed that the head of the department was estimating her potential and strength to some extent.
Iarin is one of the rarest geniuses.
That’s why he seemed to think that she would be the one who subdued Kim Jun-hyeok for a moment.
In fact, if Ia-rin risked being revealed and used their family’s unique magic system, it would have been possible to tie Kim Jun-hyeok’s feet down for a very short time.
‘Aha···.’
The corner of his mouth hung wide open as he thought to that point.
From the moment I thought that Eunkyung Service might have some kind of connection with Gangdong Management Construction, one of the hypotheses I had in mind came to the surface.
“Was there a rat hiding inside the White Flame?”
“…!”
Siyoon did not miss the moment the chief flinched.
He recalled the conversation he had with the ‘Lesser Panda’ at the shooting range the other day.
‘I think that’s a bit questionable.’
‘question?’
‘There’s no way I would have done anything to leave a mark, so how did I get tracked?’
It wasn’t because the lesser panda made a mistake and got caught by them.
The rat in the White Flame brought a red panda to Choi Jin-seong and offered it to him.
In the basement of an abandoned factory, the image of a woman who was found in a terrible state flashes through his mind.
Choi Si-yoon’s mouth twisted.
“Who is that?”
He took a step closer to the manager and asked.
“Park Jae-joon? Or is it Kim Sang-woo?”
“!!”
“Kim Jaehwan? Robert Kim?”
The chief shouted at the names of the White Flame executives coming out of his mouth.
“What are you doing! Get rid of that bastard quickly!”
Then, attack magic rained down from all sides.
Siyun’s pistol, which moved one step ahead with the activated feature ‘Bullet Time’, spewed fire.
“Even if it’s a magic gun, it’s a gun at best! Don’t give up your line of sight while taking cover, and stick to it when you get a chance and kill them!”
“It’s just a gun.”
Siyoon pulled the trigger at the servicemen running towards him.
Then they quickly take cover behind the cargo.
However, the cover was colorless, and the curved bullets pierced their necks helplessly.
“Kuuk!”
“What, what just?!”
At the same time, he raised the revolver in his left hand and fired a shot through the second floor servicemen who were covered by magic.
Luminous magic that flashes and activates at the same time as the surging bullet.
The intense flash of Siyun’s magic alteration and the characteristic ‘God of Mechanical Devices’ overlapped instantly took away their eyes.
“Ah!”
But that’s just a paving stone to tie them down.
Siyun kills the enemy right in front of him with an automatic pistol, and at the same time fires a revolver bullet again toward the second floor.
Bullets flying into every nook and cranny of the warehouse as if they were alive.
And it was only for a moment that Siyun’s magic ran through them.
In the blink of an eye, the magic circle covered the entire second floor.
‘The 5th tier electric shock magic.’
The spread net of lightning instantly surrounded the services of the 3 teams as if scavenging fish.
Someone on the first floor who saw that shouted.
“All 3 teams evacuate!!”
However, blinded by the flash, there was no way they could avoid it in time.
Communication between the 3 teams cuts off the moment an electric current splashes over their heads.
At the same time as the blue lightning exploded, all the lights in the warehouse exploded due to overvoltage.
“crazy···!”
The inside of the warehouse, which has gone dark in an instant.
The surviving servicemen on the first floor swallowed their saliva in the horrified stillness.
“What, what is it? Where did that child go?”
“Team 3? Team 3 answer!”
“Damn it, there was no mention that the opponent was a lightning wizard of that level!”
“Find that out later! Everyone concentrate if you want to live!”
“Wait, who used the search magic just now?”
“Martin…? Whoops!”
“What’s going on there…! Kuck!”
“That, that bastard! That guy wrote it! Turn on the lights right now!!”
“Someone launch a fire pit!!”
“You bastard, Kim Young-hwan, you have the fire attribute!!”
At that moment, the flame magic fired by someone lit up the inside of the warehouse.
Before long, the service workers were able to find Choi Si-yoon among them.
He laughed, waving his silenced pistol in front of them.
“high.”
“f*ck, don’t give me distance. stick!!”
“Stay!!”
However, the magazines fell to the ground before their magic swords could reach them.
The faces of the servants who saw it were stunned.
At the same time, bullets flying over their heads rain down on them all at once.
“Ouch?!”
“crazy···!”
I was afraid of gunshots, so I wore earplugs, so I couldn’t hear the sound of the silencer.
A strategy that is possible because the XA-05 suppresses noise to the extreme compared to other silencers.
The faces of the surviving servicemen became contemplative at the sight of them collapsing and sprinkling blood all at once.
said one of them, trembling.
“So, the rumors were true…!”
“What is this bastard!”
“Kim Jun-hyeok, the person who subdued that monster!! It wasn’t Lee Arin, that bastard was right!!”
The image of him approaching, changing magazines again among the fallen servicemen, seemed to them like a reaper.
“We touched someone we shouldn’t have touched in the first place…!”
A commotion quickly spreads among them.
Then, the servicemen start to step back.
The manager, unable to see this, shouted with all his might.
“Everyone can’t keep their senses straight!!”
The eyes of those who were agitated by the power that vibrates the air are focused on him.
The head of the department, who had glanced over at the fewer than 10 people left, clicked his tongue.
“This is why non-regular workers are not allowed.”
Then he came forward and slowly clapped his hands towards Siyoon.
“bravo. bravo! I was honestly surprised. No matter how much trash I collect, I can’t believe I’ll do it this far. Pretty good for a non-regular worker, isn’t it?”
“Irregular workers, non-regular workers from before.”
Siyoon glanced at the services and said.
“Don’t you have any pride? If it were me, I would have hit that bastard in the back of the head.”
“…!”
“Puhahahahaha!”
There, the manager burst into laughter.
“Back of the head? These worms?”
His outstretched hand gripped the nape of the neck of a nearby service.
“Ouch!”
“These bastards can’t do that.”
“Now, wait a minute… out of breath…!”
“Even if I do this, I can’t do anything.”
“Chief manager…!”
“Yeah, these guys are scum who sold my soul for a pittance.”
Then, the face of the yong-Yeok begins to twist strangely.
“head of a department···!”
Soon after, he vomited black blood from his mouth and nose, and then flipped his eyeballs.
Those who saw the scene held their breath.
The manager who had abandoned him when he had stopped breathing brushed off his sleeve as if it were unclean.
Surprisingly, the blood that Yong-yeok vomited wriggled and soaked into the chief’s feet.
‘Blood attribute… a blood mage.’
Perhaps because of that black blood, the service workers can’t resist the chief.
This particular vicious trick was in my memory.
‘Among the blood methods, it seems to be on the side of samurai.’
It was only then that Siyun was able to be sure of the identity of the thing that existed deep inside the warehouse, which he had detected when he had just used the search magic.
‘I saved it just in case, but it turned out well.’
He thought as he unzipped the black bag he was wearing behind his back.
In fact, there was nothing special about the combat power of the magician himself.
This is because the true power of the sorcerer did not come from the person himself.
“I didn’t expect to take this out to catch a guy like you, but…”
The manager twisted his lips as if he was annoyed.
“I don’t have much time, so I can’t help it.”
As he snaps his fingers, a ghastly scream begins to echo from the depths of the warehouse.
“Hey!”
The yong-Yeogdeul-I blocking my ears there.
Siyun pushed the shotgun bullet under the Binelli N3 at the faint vibration that gradually got closer.
“Then let me introduce you.”
The chief bowed his head in a formal manner and said.
“My art. It’s ‘Man Eater’.”
At the same time, a gigantic chimera breaks through the wall and reveals itself.
Its appearance, which seemed to be a mixture of all sorts of monsters and people, looked more like a monstrosity made of multi-colored clay than a work of art.
“This body is a newly compiled masterpiece based on the monster ‘Troll’.”
As if responding to his words, the troll’s head hung on his shoulder let out a scream at Siyoon.
“It’s at the level of a masterpiece…”
In the past and now, it was difficult to sympathize with the twisted aesthetic sense of the blood mages.
“To not know this beauty, after all, garbage is just garbage.”
“What makes him look more trashy. I’m still good looking.”
“Heh heh. It was quite a provocation.”
“I was sincere.”
“I will specially remodel you with the brain of a chimera.”
With a small growl, the chief commanded Man Eater.
“My dear. Leave the head.”
Chimera roared as if she had waited there.
Before long, his huge body rushed towards Siyoon.
Shiyoon muttered as he aimed his shotgun at the monster.
“It’s a troll.”
With a click, his gun is loaded.
“It will ride well.”
Then the trigger was pulled.
