Genius Wizard Breaking Limits - Chapter 562

Episode 562: Unknown

It is not known exactly how far Gluttony’s teeth can affect the grafts under his command.

However, that doesn’t mean I have any intention of moving to another continent.

‘In case of an unexpected variable occurring, at least Isabella and Adrian need to be within arm’s reach so that they can deal with it.’

After considering so many factors, the decision was made that the city-state of Downt was faintly visible beyond the horizon.

───Kwaaaaaaaang!

Hegin and Lutten were thrown from the that appeared in the sky and crashed into the ground. They stopped only after destroying some of the forest and rocks, and then stood up with deep groans.

The wound on his nape, exposing his bones and muscles, began to regenerate.

“Ark, is it?”

His voice cracked and cracked as his vocal cords were still recovering.

widely.

A frightening gaze flew towards Verden, who landed on the ground while summoning [Interis] from the subspace.

“It’s clear that the piece of Gluttony was transformed and that the identity was prevented from being discovered, but how on earth did it happen so quickly… …!”

“No matter how many times it is altered, the fundamental essence remains the same, so there is no way to distinguish it.”

Verden does not rely unconditionally on objects such as artifacts.

If he hadn’t been equipped with the ability to do so from the beginning, he wouldn’t have declared to Listener and Locke that he would take care of Gluttony on his own.

“By the way, you’ve released a lot of transplants all over the company. And yet, you, one of the leaders, are an international merchant advisor. Aren’t your social statuses too diverse?”

While Isabella watched over the Merchant Association headquarters, Verden checked out the Brandt Company that Adrian had mentioned.

There were only two transplant recipients.

Perhaps, in addition to putting forward an ordinary group to distract the Ark’s attention, it is also intended to obtain information from various directions and exercise Gluttony’s influence more flexibly and broadly.

This is the part where we can deeply understand why it took so long for the Ark to find Gluttony.

Verden asked.

“Advisor, Hegin is obviously an alias. Rupel Rains Di Gadran was the fifth canine. Which tooth are you?”

“… … It was difficult to make an accurate judgment because I couldn’t read the existence. It seems to be the Ark after all. That’s because you mentioned Rupel’s name.”

Even though he couldn’t see Verden’s face because he couldn’t see through the , Hegin remained calm and continued speaking.

“I am Beldoran, the Third Fang of Gluttony. Since you have answered, I will ask you also. Are you the captain of the ark?”

“no.”

Verden tilted his upper body.

“Still a candidate.”

Verden disappeared from sight.

Hegin───Beldoran, who sensed the shaking in space, immediately threw a punch with reflexes that defied understanding.

My whole body shook from the shock I felt when I bumped into the staff.

‘What is the candidate… …!’

It was the same with the wizard claiming to be a close combatant, but apart from identifying the identity, my instincts were on alert when I came face to face with him.

The exact position is unknown.

There is no doubt that it is the best power of the ark.

‘This is not the time to consider losses.’

If you are a captain, it is difficult to shake off the pursuit in this situation, but you are also a target that must be dealt with.

Immediately afterwards, Beldoran shouted.

“Luton! Eat it up!”

As soon as the order was given, Luton’s whites turned black. The life force was drained from the red fragments implanted inside him.

Soon a black darkness began to spread out from him.

───!

Endless darkness engulfed the world surrounding the three people.

* * *

Even in the darkness where there was not a single speck of light, objects were clearly visible. It is not something I would call familiar, but it is not an unfamiliar phenomenon.

‘Is this Gluttony’s stomach?’

This is a supernatural ability that emerged from Gluttony’s organ that was transplanted into Ruppel. As soon as the space changed, Veldoran distanced himself from her.

Verden’s eyes turned to him.

“Obviously, when Ruppel died, that part of Gluttony must have disappeared.”

“As you know, Gluttony’s organs will continue to regenerate as long as the ‘heart’ exists. The cycle is very long, but the life force of the red shards has greatly shortened that time.”

Originally, numerous sacrifices were necessary to create the red piece.

It takes four digits of life to go through a specific process to complete just two or three red pieces.

But just as each individual is independent, the size of their vitality also differs.

Gluttony succeeded in securing the corpses of high-ranking magicians and those still alive during the war between the Black Hour and the Western Continent Magic Tower Alliance, and was able to obtain an incomparable amount of materials compared to those in the Duchy.

‘So Gluttony’s organs were regenerative?’

This was a fact that Verden, who had not been deeply involved in the Ark and had kept a certain distance from it before Transcendence, found out for the first time.

anyway.

“The reason why it wasn’t detected by Black Hour or any other magic tower during that series of events was probably because the Bohemian Magic Tower was concealed.”

“You know very well. Thanks to you, we have made progress in many ways. The red piece is the crystallization and final destination of our wishes. Now, we have been able to further strengthen the transplanter to create a temporary suitable body that can handle some of Gluttony’s organs… … and we have also been able to further unleash the inherent power of Gluttony’s organs.”

Rutton gestured.

Monsters with white eyes and torn mouths rose from the ground. Their number was beyond counting.

[Kaaaaaaaaaah!]

In ancient times, it was called a sweeper.

Countless cleaners that live in Gluttony’s stomach, and anomalous creatures that appear endlessly as long as the caster continues to drain life force.

Wood crunch.

Beldoran slowly straightened his slightly hunched back. Along with a strange bone cracking sound, his previously small-looking body gradually grew in size.

Then, the red fragments embedded in the muscular body began to react, and the bodies of the sweepers in the area began to transform.

Body parts that have become even larger and sharper… … Even the momentum of Luton, the reserve fifth fang, has become extraordinary.

Verden stared at the change.

“Strengthening entities related to Gluttony through mental action. Is that the function of your organ?”

“The third fang will receive Gluttony’s brain transplant. Not only will the mental connection, but even physical abilities will become closer to Gluttony’s true body.”

thud!

Beldoran rolled his feet.

He extended his fist with his elbow bent.

The figure of the weak old man disappeared without a trace, as did the stance of the martial artist.

“I would expect you to be the most recent captain of the ark. That’s why we have no information on you.”

“… … .”

“However, even if you succeeded in your surprise attack, since you entered this space alone, your victory or defeat was already decided. Overconfidence and immaturity. That is the cause of your defeat.”

Beldoran’s voice was full of confidence in his claim. Numerical superiority and his own skills. Both were the basis for his argument.

Gluttony’s stomach──space, immortality, summoning.

Gluttony’s cerebrum──mind, thinking, reaction.

These are the categories of abilities that each organ transplant recipient gains.

What on earth is Gluttony, the monster that devours the world that was conquered by the Ark long ago? What makes it have so many abilities?

And how powerful would a completed Gluttony have been with all its organs in place?

“I have so many questions.”

[agreement.]

Alpha leans halfway out from the front of Rob’s body and records the situation.

It’s the first time we’ve seen a being with Gluttony’s organs manifest their abilities, so it seems like a strange experience in many ways.

“… … ? What is that creature?”

Beldoran and Luton question Alpha, but he has no intention of answering. That’s not what he came for.

Verden said.

“Even if they are the leaders, it would be impossible for Gluttony’s organization to reveal its secrets. Then, is the matter related to the Bohemirn Tower a separate matter?”

“… …Why are you asking that?”

“If you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to.

Verden placed Interis in the air and clasped his hands together.

“I’ll find out for myself.”

A pitch-black flame spreads widely in the darkness of Gluttony.

The realm of extinction.

The sweepers within range retreated with screams of pain, and some of them were erased from existence before they could get out.

Crackle──!

Next, Verden grabbed [Interis] and created a red current.

Simultaneous use of and .

In the past battles with Ruppel, I struggled and suffered hardships.

In fact, the staff he was using at the time broke and he was covered in blood from deep wounds all over his body.

However, things are different now.

At that time, he was a 4th-tier wizard, and now he is a 7th-tier transcendentaler.

“Let’s see how long it lasts.”

A ray of destruction swept across the horizon, engulfing Beldoran and Luton.

* * *

The central figure in charge of Gluttony’s chain of command disappeared from Downt. This meant that from now on, even if they dealt with the transplants, they would not inevitably be caught.

The operation was a success.

Extreme extreme

The sense of touch, sharpened by the seasons, reads the flow of the underground shopping mall. Among them, those with a heterogeneous atmosphere are selected.

And with the stealth and unique speed of the robe-type artifact [Shadow Spider], I plan to run through the underground shopping mall and eliminate all the transplants I touch with one blow.

Of course the body will remain.

There will be a big uproar soon.

‘Still, there is absolutely no chance of my identity being revealed to the outside world.’

He is wearing a metal mask that covers his lower face, something he used in the past.

Above all, it is impossible for even the most skilled warriors to accurately capture Adrian’s speed with their eyes.

It was a very simple matter to deceive the attention of the citizens.

That’s right.

It was the moment when Adrian was about to gallop, concentrating his strength on his hind legs.

“?”

The air… … felt different. No, the air current flowing through the shopping district changed. And sure enough, a moment later, a bloody smell tickled my nose.

The smell of blood.

Maybe they were slaughtering animals and transporting them to underground shopping malls, but it was too intense for that to be the case.

Soon, a vibration and a scream were heard from far away.

“T-That’s murder!!”

“Run away, quickly!”

“Gyaaaaaaah!”

Merchants, citizens, adventurers, and mercenaries all rushed through the passage. Adrian caught sight of him and headed in the opposite direction.

Soon, as we went out into the open space, the wide space that could be called the center of the underground shopping mall was reflected in my sky-blue eyes.

A few hours ago, Adrian passed by this place while browsing the underground shopping mall.

I looked down.

“… … .”

In the middle of the street, people, men and women alike, are lying dead. A rough estimate suggests that the number is well over 100.

‘Looking at the small amount of blood flowing from their wounds, it seems like they were all killed within a few minutes.’

Among the still-warm corpses stood those whose identities were completely hidden.

The number is three.

One wizard, two warriors.

Swish.

At that moment, the one holding the two curved swords raised his head upward.

I locked eyes with Adrian.

Then, he moved quickly, jumped up the wall with only two legs, and reached the floor where Adrian was in an instant.

Oh my!

The blades clashed and sparks flew.

It’s strong.

However, what Adrian noticed was not the level of the murderers──but the magical elements hidden in their heads and hearts.

‘… … Forced magic circle?’

The strong men who were brainwashed by the Bohemian Tower Master appeared in Downt.

* * *

‘What? I can’t connect to the radio?’

You can easily check on someone’s whereabouts just by having a light on the communication device, without having to communicate directly.

But no matter how much I manipulate it, it doesn’t connect to the other party.

There are two cases.

Either too far away or something is getting in the way.

‘Considering the distance traveled that the head of household mentioned, it’s probably not the former, so it’s probably the latter.’

It must have been the leadership of Gluttony that caused some phenomenon.

There’s absolutely nothing to worry about.

Who can threaten the head of the household who won against the dark moon of Black Hour? There is no room for trust in Verden to be shaken.

Isabella, like Adrian in the underground shopping mall, seeks out and eliminates the implanters hiding above ground───

“?!”

Kwaaaaaaaang!

A blazing rock crashed down where Isabella had been and exploded. She looked up, retreating behind a curtain of ice.

A strange wizard stood horizontally with both feet planted on the wall of this building.

“Fangnirrrrrr. Where are you going? Send meeeeeee. Beggareeee?”

He is bald and covered in magical tattoos, and a scraping sound comes from the back of his throat.

A transplant with five red pieces near the heart.

‘It’s right in front of you, but you can barely feel its presence?’

Only by grasping the essence through the eyes can one clearly recognize it.

It seems that he was a guard who was secretly guarding Gluttony’s teeth, but it seems that he was unable to respond because the owner’s movements were too fast.

Well, anyway.

Isabella activated the magical circuits throughout her body.

“I wonder where it was sent?”

“I’m so curious.”

“I’ll send you one too, so go ask!”

A wave of ice surged diagonally up the wall of the building. The wizard moved quickly and immediately got out of range.

Kwaaaaang!

The magic that the two people had finished calculating collided and exploded. The citizens nearby ran away at the unusual commotion.

Isabella, who had come out onto the street like that, was about to start beating herself up a little harder while checking to see if there was anyone nearby.

“I came to catch a monster, but someone is already trying to catch it.”

“… … !”

Ugh, ugh.

A young man is tasting grilled skewers in front of a restaurant whose owner has run away.

He sat on his chair, very leisurely, chewing the meat that had long since cooled, and quietly looked at Isabella.

“Who are you?”

The transcendent being of all time, Sandhir Payen asks:
