Genius Warlock-Episode 548
548. Legacy (2)
When Oliver asked him to bring the key, the golems turned left and right, and a golem came out between them and stood in front of Oliver..
The golem, which looked the same as the other golems, knelt down on one knee, held out a huge stone fist, and spread out its hands..
In the palm of his hand was a heavy-looking cast iron key..
One of two keys that must be obtained to obtain the Meat Chef's Legacy.
“You're so cunning.”
Lucien muttered as soon as he saw the key. That's right, the whereabouts of the last key, which I couldn't find no matter how much I searched, was none other than the door..
As he said, it was a truly cunning method..
Who would have thought that the last key, not just any entrance key, would be hidden inside the castle, even in a golem??
But at the same time it was great.
If you do this because it is dark under the lamp, you can block access from others until all the keys are secured..
Even if they noticed, they had to fight the golem army without causing any damage to the surroundings of the castle, so it was all the same..
At first glance, it appears that the keys were stored sloppily, but in fact, they were stored in the safest and most secure manner..
The problem is that even the human meat chef who thought of this security system could not have anticipated the existence of Oliver, who would subdue the golem by eating himself..
“How on earth did you do this??”
One of Millieu's regular members muttered..
Obeying hundreds of golems and obtaining the key without a single battle was such an extraordinary sight..
No, before it was a real sight, it was suspicious overall..
However, he uses the beheading, a signature technique of human meat chefs that cuts off swarms of creatures in one go, the monstrous strength that crushes a giant's fist with his bare body, and the overwhelming presence that can only be felt from human meat chefs..
What Oliver has shown so far is comparable to that of a human meat chef. No, it was on a higher level..
However, in the meantime, even the golem placed by the human meat cook was made to obey with a single hand gesture.?
Even though it was suspicious, it was too suspicious. There's just no one to question it.
At that time, Oliver opened his mouth first and gave the answer..
“I have met the human meat chef once. When the chaos broke out in Raville..”
“Are you talking about when you're fighting the archive??”
Lucien mentioned the archive. It was Archive that officially defeated the human meat cook..
“Yes, I saw the magic flow and energy used by the human meat chef at that time, and I am just imitating it now. Because the golem's magic distinguishes people..”
At those words, several people who knew something about golems nodded..
The fact that golems distinguish between people through magical power is something that anyone with even a little experience in combat knows..
Of course, if it goes as he said, it makes sense to do this..
With Oliver's ability to fight with fingers, it wouldn't be surprising if he showed off his skills imitating the magic power of a human meat cook... However, something was not refreshing. Of course, no one said that out loud..
Oliver opened his mouth, taking the iron key from the golem's hand..
“Well then, as I said before, I will go in first..”
Everyone agreed, and Oliver approached the castle's main gate inside the castle walls, inserted the key into the keyhole, and turned it..
Clap.
When the sound rang, unlike the castle gate, the main gate of the fortress opened smoothly and without a sound. And the old and worn-out interior of the castle caught my eye..
As soon as Oliver stepped inside the castle, he felt a dense magical energy surround his body..
When I fully entered that state, I felt magical power surround my entire body and my body was floating, and then I immediately experienced a brief blackout phenomenon that an ordinary person could not perceive..
A teleportation magic was activated through two equally realized spaces..
***
Oliver was able to realize that he had been transferred to a new space through the momentary flow of magic power and the blackout phenomenon..
It is a real treasure trove decorated just like the inside of an old castle..
It would definitely take time and money, but considering that unstable space magic could be used so safely, it didn't seem like a bad idea..
Although he was already dead, he was a human meat cook. It seemed like it wasn't something that just ate people. Now it's all meaningless.
Oliver walked forward, analyzing the spatial magic he saw and felt..
Perhaps because it was decorated to resemble the interior of the old castle, this place was so gloomy that it would not be surprising if ghosts appeared anywhere and at any time..
However, Oliver was not distracted by that appearance and calmly examined his surroundings with the eyes of a warlock..
By concentrating his attention on the warlock's eyes, Oliver was able to find the vast and detailed security magic and black magic spells hidden inside, not just on the outside..
The two completely different techniques were interlocked like gears, and the method was quite interesting..
The warlock's magic method was to first detect the biological reaction of the person transferred here as a human meat cook and inform the magic magic spell of this..
If the human meat cook lacks energy, security and trap magic placed throughout the treasure trove were set up to be triggered like dominoes..
Fortunately, that didn't happen to Oliver, who ate the meat from the meat cook's palm..
Oliver extracted the magical energy stored in his body, set the magical flow according to the security magic spell installed by the human meat cook, and placed his hand on the wall in that state..
Then, the magic inside the treasure trove, which had been abandoned for a long time, responded to the magic administered by Oliver as if a key had been inserted..
Starting from the point that Oliver touched, the magic that filled the interior of the old castle was disarmed one after another like a mechanical device, and after a while, the torches on the walls lit up and invisible doors appeared on the long wall..
The hidden door of the treasure trove has been opened..
Oliver opened a suitable door to check and soon he could see.
The enormous inheritance that the human meat cook said was hidden.
“The rumor was true.”
Oliver muttered as he looked at the gold bars that filled the walls of the room..
The yellow gold that filled the walls reflected the light, filling the room with golden waves..
It wasn't a rumor that the human meat cook kept the goods he had collected for hundreds of years..
I felt like I could be free from many financial problems just by taking the gold bars in this room..
However, just in case, Oliver checked a couple of other rooms as well..
Interestingly, in the other room, there were not only gold bars, but also a mountain of cash and jewels, as well as magic and black magic items..
It was literally a real treasure trove..
A treasure trove that drains people's souls and arouses obsession and greed even without special magic or spells..
However, Oliver showed no interest even when he saw the yellow gold that filled the walls and the mountains of cash piled up..
Although I liked money, I always viewed it as a convenient tool to have. Oliver's interest was not goods. a little more precious than that-
“-found.”
Oliver muttered as he discovered a study that contained dark magic books and demonic books instead of gold and silver treasures..
***
“big mouth.”
As soon as he discovered the study, Oliver grabbed a huge, folded glutton bag from the leather case around his waist. He brought out Big Mouth and called..
At Oliver's call, Big Mouth, which had been folded up like a blanket, swelled up like bread dough, and soon eyes and limbs sprouted..
“Sigh?”
Big Mouse, who opened his eyes in a new space, looked around and made a unique toad-like cry..
Given the situation, Oliver took out a bundle of bills and asked for work right away..
“Could you please give me all the books here? A whole bookshelf?”
Big Mouth, seeing the thick bundle of bills, took one look at Oliver and accepted. Through the expanded maw obtained by eating several gluttonous sacs, it picked up a bookshelf containing dozens of books and began swallowing it whole..
“It's reliable..”
“Kurururururuk······!”
After receiving the bundle of bills and praise, Big Mouse started swallowing the book faster, making a crunching noise..
It was a bit noisy, but not bad. What Oliver needed now was speed..
Even if they were allowed to enter first, suspicion would inevitably arise if a certain period of time passed..
Even so, Millieu had to avoid such a situation because there was a paladin..
Although Millieu would take charge of the Paladin to some extent, the Paladin was bound to have its limitations..
‘Should I hurry a little more??’
After thinking, Oliver called Big Mouth..
“big mouth.”
“Gooluk?”
Big Mouse, swallowing books from the bookshelf, answered..
“By any chance, after swallowing this room, can you look around the other rooms by yourself and swallow them if you see a book??”
“Gururuk?”
Big Mouth reacted poorly to the additional work. In response, Oliver took out a lump of gold that he had taken with him when he looked around the warehouse earlier..
Big Mouse's eyes grew so big that they seemed to pop out. It was natural since I often see cash but rarely see gold bars..
“Coutain?!!”
“There are hundreds of these gold bars and a mountain of banknotes. There are quite a few gems... If you cooperate, I will let you eat half later..”
Oliver said he wouldn't give it to him, but he would let him eat it. In order to keep it in the first place, it had to be fed to Big Mouth..
However, Big Mouth, whose eyes had already turned to the gold ingots, must have misunderstood the meaning of the words, and began devouring the books at a speed incomparable to before. Almost sucking it in.
“Kurururururururuk!!”
It's a bit scary. However, at this level, I felt like I could definitely trust it..
Of course, there was concern that Big Mouth would eat gold bars or paper money on its own, but considering the way Big Mouth had appeared so far, the likelihood of that happening was low..
Big Mouth was greedy and had a good appetite, but that was within the range that Oliver allowed. Above all, my emotional state was not like that..
Oliver, who decided that he could trust Big Mouse, came out of the study alone and focused the warlock's eyes. He looked around the inside of the old castle again..
To get something else instead of a book.
Fortunately, Oliver's eyes, which had become even better after meeting Sleeping Beauty, were able to see through complex techniques like a spider's web, and find faintly shining emotions among them..
That emotion was none other than the emotion of the human meat chef that the princess requested as a condition of helping the human meat chef..
Oliver walked towards the faintly glowing emotions, opened a door, and found an old special test tube lying among the gold and silver treasures..
Specially processed test tubes that can be stored for a long period of time without damaging feelings..
Oliver looked at the test tube for a moment and then put it in his arms..
***
About ten minutes later, Oliver gathered up the books in the safe and came out of the old castle..
It was thanks to Big Mouth, who was blinded by wealth, running with both feet to cooperate, and Millieu, who was waiting outside, welcomed Oliver as soon as he saw him..
“Are you here??”
“yes.”
Oliver answered and explained that there was a space-mediated teleportation magic and a security technique installed by the human meat cook inside the moved treasure trove..
Millieu seemed to trust everyone..
“So, the end result is that it was lucky that Dave went in first..”
Oliver thought about it carefully and nodded. If he had gone in with Millie Yu, a trap might have been triggered..
“But, you don't have to worry about that anymore. Because everything was dismantled. Now we can go in together and see how much treasure there is..”
“How much is it? treasure?”
Lee Wan asked a question.
“There are tons of them. That's how I see it too. However, before that······.”
Oliver paused before answering, gathering the magical power stored in his body into his fingertips and dispersing it in front of him..
It is a modification of the detection magic that uses magic power, and sparkling blue magic particles fly like waves and form on the grass blades and trees of a dense forest and in the air..
As soon as he confirmed this, Oliver clenched his hand tightly and activated a spell containing scattered magic power. The magic particles glowed and the air distorted, revealing many people hiding in the forest..
“They are grave robbers.?”
Valehi, one of the most famous people in Millieu, spat when he saw the people who had appeared..
It seemed like he knew something..
“I guess you could call me a grave robber or an adventurer..”
One man, among a group of people heavily armed with magic armor and weapons with invisibility magic, stepped forward and spoke..
He seemed to be a captain, but he was tall and had clear facial features, like a model in an advertisement..
“Who are you?”
When Oliver asked about them, Pierre, the oldest of the Millieux bosses, answered..
“Opert. He's a pretty famous grave robber. He's a guy who digs graves and steals relics from the New World, the East, and remote areas..”
“If someone who doesn't know hears it, they'll think it's true. I am just a romantic and passionate adventurer exploring unknown lands. In the process, all we have to do is excavate forgotten relics and store them carefully..”
“We promised to call it grave robbing.”
“If the state not only recognizes the relics obtained in that way and even gives them a medal, it is no longer grave robberies. Because the law recognized me.”
“I guess the equipment on my body was bought by selling medals.?”
Balehi Hong Il-jeom said as he looked through the expensive equipment Opert was wearing with his keen eyes..
Ofert also puffed out his chest as if showing off his equipment, as if he had no intention of hiding it..
“I did have a small side job. Thanks to you, no one noticed while approaching like this, right? Or maybe Millieu was actually an unremarkable people... Do you think the rumors were true? The human meat cook disappeared and Millieux became a thing of the past.?”
It was like that. The human meat cook who divided Gallos disappeared, and while various armed groups, led by warlocks, rose up to fill the empty space, a rumor spread that Millieu's power was weaker than expected..
Actually, if you think about it a little, this was natural..
Because no force had ever entered the world behind Gallos for fear of the human meat cook, Millieu was also protected to some extent from competition from the outside..
It's truly ironic.
In fact, the reason Lucien and other Millieux wanted to take over the legacy of the human meat chef was not simply about money..
There was also a purpose to promote the strength of Millieu by taking over the legacy of the human meat cook..
Regardless of actual power, looking funny was poison on this floor..
However, no matter how true it is, you cannot just admit it. Valehi countered..
“Heh, I'm acting proud. A rat crawled out from the outskirts······!”
Opus also did not give up and said.
“The jaws of those dying... why? Since I have a golem, I think it's worth a try.?”
As soon as the grave robber Opert finished speaking, he noticed his subordinate, and one of his subordinates armed with a mechanical arm hacked into the golem's system and stopped it from functioning..
The light disappeared from the eye sockets of the golem, which was modeled after a soldier, and it fell down..
Millieux is taken aback by an unexpected situation. said Offert haughtily..
“The latest magic engineering equipment. Times keep changing. Only people like you fight with outdated weapons. so-”
Opert, who had neutralized hundreds of golems, was speaking triumphantly, but then suddenly stopped..
The reason was none other than Oliver. Oliver went towards the castle, closed the door he opened earlier, and locked it again..
Clap.
Behavior for which the reason is unknown. Just when I wondered what kind of trick it was, Oliver held up the key and calmly said,.
“Aside from Mr. Opert, the grave robber, could everyone else please come forward? I'm a little tired. If you don't come out, I'll break this key..”
Oliver spoke to the people still hiding and watching the situation. If you keep bothering to hide, I'll break your keys..
