Episode 543 Deception (1) [Illustration]

When Verden, who had asked a few questions about the first Dark Lord, went out into the world, Alpha and Beta, who had seen him off, remained in the Golem Research Facility and looked at each other.

sibling.

Is it because they both know that they have the same Creator… … and that they have been waiting for the Creator for hundreds of years while each fulfilling their own duties?

These artificial golems felt a strong sense of kinship with each other, although it wasn’t a biological sensation, since they weren’t actually related by blood.

Perhaps it is because empathy is expressed from existential awareness.

anyway.

[I would like to get an overall assessment of the level of the Golem Research Facility.]

[I’ll summarize it in one sentence. It’s great.]

Alpha and Beta walked around the facility, talking casually. There was no pretense or unnecessary embellishment.

A truly efficient and rational discourse.

It was difficult to discern emotions from the tone alone because the voice was mechanical, but there was definitely trust in it.

Thud. Thud. Thud.

Alpha, riding on Beta with its huge frame, dominated the conversation throughout. Most of the information Beta had was heard due to the damage to the core, which damaged his memory.

Information sharing is a priority.

Alpha constantly talked about the past───mainly about Verden. All of the information was based on first-hand experience.

Moreover, it was not simply a linguistic proof.

[Special Release.]

Alpha brought the cores containing the Memory Golem’s records and activated them in order.

The magical light that examined the empty wall reproduced the stored memories. It was quiet with no sound, but visually it was splendid.

That makes sense, since it also included moments where Verden used powerful magic.

For reference, there is also a scene where the core of Beta, which is dying in the Great Forest, is separated, and a recent scene of the Black Hour succession ceremony.

[… … .]

Beta took in everything Alpha had shown him from that spot. His single eye staring blankly ahead became more understanding.

I think I know a little more about His Majesty Verden, the successor to the Demon King Peha.

How Alpha regards him and follows him, what he will mean to Beta… …and what he will do next.

Soon after the memory viewing was over, Beta asked.

[Can I see the schematics for the communication device and memory golem?]

Alpha is the general manager of the Golem Research Facility and possesses truly pioneering golem-making technology.

Beta, on the other hand, although he never studied the Golem, helped the Creator design and build a semi-permanent power source.

In this way, the fields are different.

However, the fact that he inherited the thinking ability of the first Demon King remains the same.

The genius golems began to harmonize.

Alpha explained as Beta lowered his body to scan the schematics.

[The research progress of the communication device and memory golem has stopped at 95%. In order to overcome the shortcomings and reach 100%, spatial technology is absolutely necessary.]

[It has been confirmed that spatial technology cannot be implemented with the current facility’s technological capabilities. Instead, some improvements are shown to replace it.]

[ear.]

[Brokerage by ‘Central Signal’.]

Increasing the communication range by inserting a separate signal into the center of the structure where communication devices are connected to each other as in the present case.

Alpha’s one eye blinked.

[Installing a separate signal has already been considered. The problem is clear. In addition to the signal’s distance limit, if it is constantly activated, the magic power will be depleted in exactly 3 days. Installing multiple signals makes management extremely difficult to the point where their existence becomes meaningless.]

[This is a problem that has already been recognized. So, I suggest a new power design.]

Beta’s solution was the invention of a larger, more efficient power source.

Of course, even if a new signal is created, it is difficult to connect the continents. There is a huge obstacle called unexplored territory.

Still, theoretically, it should be sufficiently applicable within each continent.

For example, it would be possible to connect the southern and northern parts of the Western Continent by simply installing a few signals in the middle.

[… … !]

Alpha’s eyes lit up.

This is brother.

Alpha had been secretly hoping to have a companion who could study Golem together, complement each other’s weaknesses, and maximize each other’s strengths.

Because you won’t have to stay alone in the research facility anymore.

There is no reason to hesitate.

I got straight to work.

While the outside world was busy monitoring the Bohemian Tower, the Golem Research Facility was also busy with new research and development.

At this point, a considerable amount of time, several dozen days, has passed.

Before the plan could be put into action, a structure the size of Beta appeared before Verden’s eyes as he visited the Golem Research Facility.

“Is this the new signal you were talking about last time?”

[Yes.]

[This is the basic model. Your Majesty Verden.]

Alpha explained softly, holding the hem of Verden’s robe, as if a child were bragging to his parents.

Verden nodded, having listened attentively to every word.

“So if we put this signal in the center, the range of communication devices can be tripled. And the duration can be maintained for almost a month.”

[It is unfinished, so it has many shortcomings. It is necessary to collect data for actual use. However, I think it will be useful.]

Verden recalled the map of the Western Continent and calculated the actual distance, taking into account the scale.

“Yes, it will certainly be useful. To the extent that it can be used for immediate planning. I didn’t expect to see such results in such a short period of time. Well done, Alpha. And Beta.”

[Brother effect.]

He stroked Alpha’s head with a gentle hand. As usual, it was meant as a compliment. The large Beta stared at him blankly.

Phew.

Verden said, storing the new signal in subspace.

“It’ll be time soon, so get ready.”

[check.]

[All right.]

Alpha transferred his consciousness to the mini golem and climbed onto Verden’s shoulder. Beta increased the density of the frame and shrunk his body to the limit.

It was a compression that utilized the free characteristics of the natural golem that was the mother.

Beta, scaled down to a size slightly larger than a palm-sized mini golem.

It may look cute on the outside, but it’s still heavy, so if you just run towards it and hit it with your body, the building will be destroyed.

[Isn’t it heavy?]

“This much is okay.”

Beta climbed onto Verden’s shoulder like Alpha.

If you have physical strength and your left-right balance is off, it’s not a problem unless you have to rush into battle.

“Then let’s go.”

There was one reason why Verden took not only Alpha but also Beta.

Beta’s abilities are also part of the plan.

Finally, news reached the Bohemirn Tower that Balok Besias and his inner circle had departed for the Magic Kingdom.

And the main force of the Verden forces that were already planning to launch the raid were divided and headed towards the magic city of the western continent, the magic tower united front of the western continent, and the eastern part of the central continent.

Group 1, which went straight to the Magic City, and Group 2, which was in charge of the Magic Tower Alliance Front, coordinated their timing by communicating over long distances using the new signal installed by Verden.

The third group, which was active in the central continent, moved independently because the communication device’s magic power was not within reach and because their assigned mission was a mission.

Group 3 was the first to arrive at their destination.

thud.

Someone dressed in a neat robe stepped into the Bohemian Tower’s branch.

The security magic circle has been lifted.

He simply infiltrated the branch, went into the darkened branch manager’s office, sat down on a soft chair, and waited leisurely.

Soon, footsteps were heard in the hallway. It was one person. The magical lock was released and the branch manager came in.

“What the hell has it been raining since the beginning of this year… … .”

Thanks to the custom-made robe, I didn’t get soaking wet, but the bangs sticking out of the hood were a bit dry.

It’s not something that can be fixed with magic.

I roughly brushed my hair and flipped the switch to turn on the magic stone lamp on the ceiling.

“It’s later than I thought. It’s annoying.”

“… … !!!”

I came to my senses at the sound of a voice piercing into my ear. Only then did I sense the presence of a stranger sitting in a chair with his feet up on the desk.

Phew.

The branch manager took out his staff from his sleeve and gathered his magical power.

“You dared to keep me waiting and even use magic? Go ahead. I’m curious to see what the Master will say when I report to him.”

“Master, sir… … ?”

The stopped magic circuit.

The moment the branch manager tilted his head, his eyes widened. He remembered the confidential order that had been sent directly from the tower a few months ago.

If a superior on a secret mission from the Central Continent visits, he will ask you to assist him.

“Re, are you Rayshen Taillord?”

“Oh, it’s me.”

The second disciple of the Bohemian Magic Tower, Rayshen Taillord───Verden, who had taken on the form of [Einver]’s that contained the infinite magic, smiled and whispered.

Blink your left eye first and add a small hand gesture.

“Can you tell the Bohemian Tower right away? I’m done with what I have to do, so come get me.”

* * *

[I judged it to be a simple performance. It is unfortunate that I have never seen the Rayshen Taillord, so I cannot compare. Your Majesty Verden.]

I never wanted to, but I’ve seen the Rayshen Taillord so many times that I remember his appearance, his speech, the pitch of his voice, his habits, etc.

Occasionally moving the left eyelid first and making exaggerated hand gestures.

Since it is possible to imitate Rayshen’s appearance exactly with , it is not that great to deceive the attention of a wizard of the branch manager level by changing his voice through atmospheric manipulation using Arcane.

“… … .”

Of course, Verden was quite upset, unlike the successful completion of the pre-work. If possible, he did not want to do something like this again.

Isabella approached quietly.

“Can’t I show you that acting too?

“no.”

Verden, who had strongly refused, changed the subject.

“I have sent word to the Bohemian Tower that you have been secured, Isabella. They will be there to pick you up shortly. Perhaps the elder, Omar Boldrak, will come to see you in person with his wizards.”

As soon as the short staff that could track the compulsory magic circle was created, the Bohemian Tower began tracking it down to the Leishen Taillord in order to secure Isabella Deiros as an undead test subject.

As it is such an important target, the means of return will most likely be through space travel.

Bohemian Tower Presbytery, ‘Itium’.

Omar Boldrak, one of those people, is the perfect person for the job, as he can create teleportation circles with his direct wizards.

‘More than anything, it’s also Rayshen’s faction.’

Verden lowered his gaze.

“Of course, it’s not an easy opponent. So───”

“Don’t worry. No matter what happens, I won’t fail. I’ll tear you all apart so not a single one of you can escape here.”

Isabella confirmed this while caressing the [Elderon], the sentence of domination worn on her left hand.

“Just trust us.”

The three groups behind her, consisting of Yunia, Cain, and Alderis, agreed. No further advice would be needed.

“Okay, leave it to me.”

Verden nodded. Beta, who had been waiting, jumped up and landed on Isabella’s shoulder.

Although the ground cracked a little due to her weight, Isabella, who had extraordinary strength, showed no sign of difficulty at all.

“See you later, senior!”

Yunia waves her hand widely.

Verden nodded in response and opened the to cross the space.

He and Alpha are headed to the front line of the Western Continent where Group 2 is located.

The mission assigned to himself by the Transcendent Verden is to search for external unofficial laboratories hidden by the Bohemian Tower.

The destruction of Gluttony, who is conducting human experiments in collaboration with those guys.

* * *

The magical city of Birente is as vast as several large and small cities, and boasts magical development.

If we compare the scale, it is just below the giant city of Gargant… … but the light and dark of the magical city are even more clearly divided.

This is because the density of wizards in this place means that there are only two possible outcomes: success or failure.

The dark, ‘lower floors of Birente’, one of the city’s districts, are filled with losers who have lost hope and those who cannot give up on success.

It was a familiar place to Grave Ludworth, a former high-ranking member of the Black Hour who had been active as a mercenary in the magical city.

Adrian, who was following Grave, narrowed his eyes.

“A dirty place that doesn’t fit the name of a magic city at all.”

“Because once the magician race starts to fall, there’s no end to it. Magicians who fail and fall on the surface usually meet this kind of ending… … And it’s because of this place that we can come in without being checked.”

In the sewers filled with filth, mold, and bugs, you can see people lying here and there, and corpses are not that rare either.

Adrian could confidently say that it was the worst environment he had ever seen in a slum.

Grave activated the communication device and spoke to Group 1, including Adrian, who was right behind him, and each of the others were moving through different sewers.

“If you pass through this sewer, you will reach the Underground, which takes up more than half of the lower level of Birente. There are a lot of crazy people there, so be careful how you conduct yourself.”

“Crazy guy?”

“Even if you don’t advance, that doesn’t mean you don’t have magic. You’ve probably heard the saying, “Never associate with a mad wizard.” There’s probably no place where that saying applies more than here.”

Graves advised again that it was best to move quietly.

Because it could be a hassle to have friction with the underground magic organizations before putting the plan into action.

Finally, we reached the end of the sewer.

But someone was blocking the exit.

Thump… … Thump… … Thump… … .

A wizard who keeps banging his head against the wall and muttering incessantly. He must be out of his mind. The passage is too narrow to pass through.

Just as Grave was contemplating what to do, Adrian moved.

“Get out of the way.”

A wizard who responds to voices.

The man with blood gushing from his forehead turned his head. His unfocused eyes were gleaming with madness.

“I did not fail.”

“Get out of the way.”

“I didn’t fail… … ! If only I could be given another chance… … !!!”

Boom!

Adrian swung his arm sideways and struck the mad wizard in the jaw. The back of his head hit the wall and he fell over, unconscious.

“Tsk.”

Adrian kicked the unconscious mad wizard away and opened the exit. The stench of the sewer was getting to him.

“Where do I go from here?”

“Ah, um. I’ll show you around.”

Grave takes the lead again.

It would be natural to feel sympathy for a wizard who has lost his dreams and is in despair… … but there was no warmth in the punch just now.

Former Central Continent’s four powers, Cheongeom.

A villain who has become much stronger than before has entered the magic city.
