Genius Warlock-Episode 373
373. help (2)
When Oliver first met Celine, he explained that he was not God and that he was just Oliver..
People who heard the story had similar reactions to Celine, but due to the circumstances, they did as Oliver asked..
Despite their discomfort, they limped around, obtained keys from the bodies of fallen servants, and freed other trapped comrades..
Due to the unexpected help, about 20 people came out and asked what happened..
“What happened?······?”
“I heard he was a druid... The leader sent mercenaries.?”
In response to the barrage of questions from his released colleagues, those who helped Oliver looked at Oliver with embarrassment as if they didn't know what to explain..
Oliver introduced himself to them even though it was an urgent situation..
No matter how urgent it is, I think it's right to correct the wrong story..
“My name is Oliver. Nice to meet you all..”
Oliver bowed politely, placing one hand on his chest..
More than twenty people who saw this looked at Oliver silently with their eyes widened..
What should I say... It was a bit like that. She felt a little uncomfortable because she felt like she had been tricked, even though she had neither been involved nor intended to do so..
What on earth did Mari do to react like this?······.
At a time when everyone was silent, unable to accept the reality before their eyes, one man hesitantly opened his mouth..
“Poetry, are you God??”
“no. Sorry, I'm not God. It's just Oliver..”
“Ha, but-”
Oliver raised his hand to stop the man..
To be honest, I wanted to correct the wrong facts right here and now, but I didn't have enough time..
“Sorry, but I'll explain that to you later. I have more urgent work to do now..”
Oliver asked for understanding and pointed to a hallway blocked by wood..
The sound of breaking trees was heard more loudly..
Bang━! Bang━! simplicity and honesty! Ujijik······!
That sound gave strength to Oliver's words just by its presence..
First of all, the organized atmosphere.
Oliver asked.
“Do any of you know where Mr. Lawrence is? I have something to ask you..”
A man cautiously raised his hand.
“that······. Probably in the newspaper room. Even after being brought here, Mr. Lawrence didn't say anything, and instead provoked the paladins and was captured..”
“Oh, I see. Where is the newspaper room??”
In response to Oliver's question, the man said to follow him and headed inside..
Oliver took out another tree branch from his chest, grew it to further block the hallway, and followed the man..
As Oliver moved forward, people made way, showing admiration, trust, and half-confident awe and respect..
They were prepared for something.
“uh······. Aren't you following me??”
“Me, we are God━”
“━Sorry, but I am not God. Just call me Oliver..”
“Oh, come... We will guard this place while Oliver finishes his business..”
“ah······. Thank you for your kind words, but if you don't mind, could you please follow me? First of all, I'm here to help you too..”
Oliver made a small gesture and said to the people:.
Everyone was puzzled as to how they could escape when they were trapped, but they still had an unexplainable belief and followed Oliver..
***
“W, here it is.”
Deepest inside the shelter. Oliver stopped in front of the iron gate..
When I tried to force open the locked door, the doorknob broke with a crackling sound and the iron door screeched open..
It was dark inside, but when light came through the crack in the door, Oliver could see a man lying on the floor..
“Is this Mr. Lawrence??”
“Yes that's right.”
“ah······. This was Lawrence..”
When I first met Marie at Oliver Landa, I thought of the subordinates who were next to me..
The most loyal and handsome man among Marie's subordinates..
“Huh... Huh... who are you?”
Mari's subordinate falls on the floor with blood spilling from his head... No, Lawrence asked, looking at Oliver in his fading consciousness..
Oliver approached him, supported him, and removed the camouflage spell of the Pure Magic School on his face..
When the magically woven fake face disappeared, the real Oliver's face appeared underneath it..
“Everything, you!?”
“Thank goodness. Do you recognize me??”
Lawrence looked at Oliver's face for a long time, frowned, and nodded his head weakly..
I wasn't just frowning because I was sick..
The reason was unknown, but as soon as he saw Oliver's face, emotions such as helplessness, humiliation, self-torture, and disgust shone through..
Oliver was embarrassed, wondering if he had made a mistake..
“uh······. Did I make some mistake??”
“······why are you here?”
Lawrence did not answer Oliver's question, but asked with doubt, humiliation, and anger shining..
The people who watched it from behind were shocked..
“Priest Lawrence?! How dare you say that? this person is-”
“-it's okay.”
Oliver raised his hand to them and resumed his conversation with Lawrence..
“I heard that Marie was in trouble and came to help her a little. Mr. Lawrence, are you okay??”
Lawrence glared at Oliver, his confusion shining. Among them, misunderstanding, resentment, and resentment were the most noticeable..
“why······. Why? Aren't you the one who rejected the leader??!”
At that moment, Oliver realized that Lawrence's feelings were not for him, but for Marie..
Just like when I saw her back then, I had a huge crush on Marie..
It was pretty.
“hmm······. It was because Marie had lost her natural shine and started relying on me. To be honest, I still want to refuse to look back then..”
Lawrence's eyes widened at the cruelly calm words..
“······.”
“However, I sincerely want to help you now, so please do not misunderstand. By any chance, do you know where Marie is? I heard Mr. Lawrence would know..”
The moment Lawrence heard that question, he felt an indescribable pain..
An overwhelming sense of helplessness, patheticness, and self-loathing..
You can't do anything on your own, and you have to ask someone like this to protect the person you love and respect..
However, there was no way. He himself had no power. It was a terrible truth. Nothing has changed in the past or present..
“This is a closed temple at 582R Buk Street....”
Lawrence said in pain. Sadly, part of me was relieved. First of all, Marie's safety has been secured..
Oliver, seeing that emotion, expressed gratitude and admiration..
“Thank you for telling me... Mr. Lawrence, you are amazing..”
“I don't have anything great. Rather, please save the leader..”
“Yes, I will get you all out and go straight away..”
At that moment, Lawrence was startled..
“W-what do you mean?! Now the paladins are targeting the cult leader! There is no time for that. Don't worry about us, just go to the leader.!”
Lawrence yells angrily. The others reacted in surprise at the sight, but Oliver remained calm..
“hmm·····. I don't like it?”
Oliver answered and threw the paper toward the inside of the newspaper room..
The flying paper activated the magic given by Oliver's will, distorting the space and opening a purple portal..
Everyone who was trapped, including Lawrence, kept their mouths shut and looked at Oliver in silence. It's as if she can't believe the situation in front of her..
Anyway, Oliver only spoke to the portal..
“first? third?”
First and Third, who were waiting for Oliver's call, entered the corpse dolls - Bathory and Sheamus respectively - and came out..
“Could you guide these people and give them some treatment? We serve food from the refrigerator..”
Burial Doll - First and Third, who entered Bathory and Sheamus, each nodded their heads..
After hearing the answer, Oliver said to Lawrence and others:.
“Would you please follow them??”
***
Fortunately, Lawrence and the others who saw the corpse doll did not react negatively and entered the portal..
On the contrary, he even expressed his feelings of admiration..
‘I'm a little concerned about that, but... Why were you impressed??’
Feeling uneasy, Oliver retrieved the paper that opened the portal and put it in his arms..
Kwasik! Kwasik!!
While I was cleaning up, I heard the sound of almost all the trees being destroyed in the distance..
According to the original plan, Oliver should have opened the portal and escaped, but instead, he went to the front of the hallway, took out two test tubes, and prepared to greet the paladin and servant..
It was an urgent situation where the Paladins went to where Marie was hiding, but since there was something to experiment and something to secure, Oliver did not move right away..
‘Secure reports, records, and evidence recording the process of investigating and arresting the selected people. Paladins have strong authority and can easily carry out illegal activities, so they may be able to use it later. Of course, it is not required, but optional..’
Remembering the pharmacist's advice, Oliver attempted to extract and mix the natural power and vitality in a test tube..
After a while, even the additional trees placed in the hallway were shattered and the paladins and servants came rushing in..
There were over ten of them, and there were two paladins among them..
With Oliver's skills, using only the power of nature was too much for the two. The power of nature was also not that great..
Therefore, Oliver used magic by mixing life force and the power of nature, and gave the broken tree fragments the power of nature mixed with human life force, causing the tree to grow rapidly..
The effect was better than expected.
The power of nature mixed with human life force produced a higher efficiency than the original power, giving new life to each broken tree fragment and turning them all into giant trees..
The paladins and servants who entered in a hurry were unintentionally surrounded by trees growing on all sides and were pressured..
“What, what??!”
“He was this capable.?!”
“Hang in there! Hold on!”
Oliver confirmed the synergy between the power of nature and other energies by pressing, pressing, and moving the Paladin and Servant using tree fragments that quickly grew into giant trees..
I thought this was worth a try..
***
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo━!
After overpowering the Paladin and Servant by mixing the power of nature and vitality, Oliver immediately searched the temporary hideout and found related reports and various records, evidence, and materials..
As the pharmacist said, the records were neatly organized, and Oliver fed all of the information to Big Mouth and then came out immediately..
As soon as he came out, Oliver looked around to make sure no one was there, took out the company B order vehicle that Philip had given him as a gift, returned it to its original size, and then stepped as hard as he could toward the closed temple at 582R North Street where Marie was hiding..
The car Philip gave me ran quickly with a powerful engine sound, befitting its name as a specially customized vehicle, and soon entered the main road..
I checked the map and found that all I had to do was drive along the main road and exit at the northern section of Wineham..
The question was whether we could get there on time..
According to Lawrence, the Holy Knights have already gone to capture Marie..
The good news was that the area near 582R Buk Street, where Marie was hiding, was an underdeveloped slum, so there were many places to hide, and since it was on the road at night, Oliver's car was able to fully function and run at maximum speed..
“But that alone seems difficult..”
Oliver muttered as he drove the car as fast as he could drive and reached the address Lawrence had given him..
An explosion sound as if there was a war was centered around an abandoned temple seen in the distance, and a soft light unique to Holy Law shone..
Other than that, there are gunshots and shouts that make my ears ring..
The battle had already begun.
Oliver focused his eyes to see what was happening in the distance..
Because the distance was considerable, I had to focus my eyes more than usual, and soon my normal vision faded and the warlock's vision became active..
As everything went dark, Oliver could see many emotions..
Even in Weinham, an underdeveloped city, people who have been pushed out.
Marie and the Holy Knights fighting in the middle of their residence..
They fought desperately around the closed temple, but things did not go well for Marie..
Like a flock of sheep surrounded, they were unable to escape and were herded into the center..
Maybe it's obvious.
The opponents were the Paladins, who can be said to be the warlock's natural enemies, and the Servants, the troops under their command, and the number, camp, and location of the troops were all disadvantageous..
Oliver, who saw through the warlock's eyes that Marie was completely surrounded, wondered how to enter..
Even if he entered like this, it would be a melee..
That was troublesome..
The reason I came this time in the first place was not to fight the paladins, but to help Marie..
I wanted to avoid unnecessary battles as much as possible and get out of there as good as possible..
‘I think it would be better to stop the fight for just a moment and secure Mari's side first... Well then, we need to get everyone's attention first..’
Oliver decided that and thought carefully about what to do, then took out two pieces of paper from his pocket..
With papers imbued with portal magic, Oliver threw one of them into the sky, manipulated it with magic, sent it over a closed temple where the battle was in full swing, and then threw the rest of the paper..
In front of the car you are driving.
When Oliver activates the spell stored on the paper with his magic, a purple portal forms in front of Oliver's car and above the temple sky..
Oliver stepped on the car as hard as he could and entered the portal, and was able to see that the surrounding scenery had changed..
It was heaven.
Above the closed temple.
While falling, Oliver put on his newly made wooden mask and pressed the button on the center fascia of the car to pull out the gatling gun attached to the car..
click. click. A large and beautiful Gatling gun that appears outside with a mechanical sound..
Oliver manipulated the handle, aimed the gatling gun at the sky, and pressed the trigger button..
A strong beam of light rose into the sky and a loud gunshot rang out..
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo━━!!!
“hmm······. Do you like it.”
