Brainstorm

65. Magi

The U.S. government has also made a rough assumption that it will do everything in its power to call for help.

As he suspected, San Francisco was empty in two days, leaving the military and the public behind.

And Grey disappears as she continues to destroy and slaughter, moving from San Francisco towards Reno. Under these circumstances, the U.S. government sent a request for Woojin's support to South Korea.

While the South Korean government expressed its condolences to them, they also asked Woojin's intentions, but his first request for support was easily rejected.

Around that time, a group of researchers from W.J. was contacted with information about fragments from the black conjunctiva.

“Welcome!”

Woojin and his men arrived at the lab. The scattering researchers greet Ujin and his group and continue to focus on their research. It was made up of only those who were crazy about the study in the first place, so this appearance of them was taken care of and ignored.

Director of Research greets Woojin, and the members behind him bow.

“Did the research come back? ”

“That's right.”

He takes Eugene and his group to another place, where he speaks.

“In the meantime, there's actually been no major breakthroughs with shrapnel. because it was a material that didn't exist in the world in the first place, and it had a completely different energy. But we were surprised to find out this time by accident. Did you see the mysterious man in the black smoke on TV? ”

“Yes, I did. Is there a connection to him? ”

“I think so. In the meantime, we've been working on debris from the black conjunctiva. And of course, we knew that Margie was coming out of the debris. But it was a mistake to think the secret key would be in the fragment. ”

“What does that mean? ”

“Fragments were merely containers containing Margie. We should have studied Margie herself in the first place. ”

“Is that why you joined the study so late? ”

“Yes. Later on, studying Magi, we also gained refining skills through chance. ”

Margie's purification technique, which Grey instructed her researchers to do in secret. It was that the Korean research director and his researchers were able to produce similar types of equipment.

“You may know it, but Margie's energy is about the same as Magic Stone's. Maybe they're stronger. But we couldn't convert Douglas Margie into energy. ”

“Well……. ”

The principal of the study was looking at Magi and the Magic Stone at the same time. So, instead of using Margie's power, she was just trying to replace it with energy.

“There was an incident in the United States just as I was about to think I didn't need energy because I couldn't convert to energy. And at that point, I saw Margie rocking like crazy. ”

“Do you rock violently? ”

“Yes, it is. Should I say that I'm trying to get out of it like I'm attracted to something? ”

“Really? Can you check now? ”

“Yes, of course. We're almost there. ”

Last place underground that was closed.

“You've done your best to be safe, haven't you? ”

“Haha, isn't that obvious? In case anything happened to Margie, the researchers' safety was our top priority. ”

“Well done. Safety first. ”

In the enclosed space, there were several huge iron doors, which were not as thick as a cannonball, and the iron doors were double slammed.

And when the last iron door opened, there was a double layer of reinforced glass, and Ujin and his group were able to see that the black smoke was shivering between the glass tubes.

“Is that the same black smoke you saw on TV around the guy named Grey? ”

“That's right. That's how black Margie became when she refined herself. But did you say grey? ”

“Yes, we know that the unidentified person has the name Grey. ”

“I see. Anyway, after he showed up, Maggie suddenly started shaking. As you can see, the first reinforced glass wall was destroyed on the inside because of the massive turbulence. ”

“Hmm… I see. It could be dangerous, but you handled it well. ”

“Haha, I'll take that as a compliment. ”

Whew!

Bang! Bang!

The black smoke moves rapidly. There was also something shocking coming from inside, even though it was smoke.

“Is it getting worse? ”

“Yes, it is. Do you think Maggie's energy is getting stronger? Since it is no longer possible to close reinforced glass or steel doors, I am here today to listen to your opinion and receive instructions. ”

“I see……. ”

He looks at the black smoke for a long time and asks, "I'm sick of it."

“But is this all the information you have on Margie from the Black Fragment? ”

“Approximately. It is also a bit violent when exposed to Margie's energy, so it can never be said to be beneficial. ”

“Hmm... Violence... ”

All the researchers gathered their heads together. So, just the information I heard now was the conclusion I had to make.

‘It's dangerous to let it go, so it might happen. But that would require a little research time to refine Margie and turn her into energy... Maybe she'll eventually become a frenzied monster. If Margie can destroy this facility without a physical form, things might get a lot harder. ’

Woojin told the Director of Research in a cautious manner, as if he had made a decision.

“Can you exterminate Margaery now? ”

“Yes, we've already done research on extinction after we've succeeded in Magi's purification. He was weak in the heat. ”

“I see. Then wipe out that madman Margie." ”

He was the head of research who had this idea at first, but it was a shame when he was ordered to vanish from his mouth.

It may be an energy that can change the world, and if we study more, a new world may unfold.

“Don't be sorry. There's a lot of research going on in this world anyway. We don't need to do research based on something dangerous. ”

“Haha… I'm sorry. But because it's so hard to see, I'm also greedy. ”

The Director of Research said so and slowly walked to one side. Then you press and hold one of the switches.

Shhhhh!!

A powerful flame rises from within the reinforced glass. And the black smoke began to shake violently, as if on fire, and by the time about three minutes had passed, Margie had disappeared.

“Phew... That's too bad. ”

“Hehe, don't even think about it. Thank you for that. Ah! Until the instructions for the study are separately for the fragments to be removed from the black conjunctiva in the future... you know? ”

“Haha, I'll do that. ”

The Director replied with a hesitant smile.

“Ah! And then there's the research on one magical stone. It was important, but I almost forgot. ”

“Yes? The research on the Magic Stone? ”

“Haha, yes. Maybe we're the only ones in the world who can figure this out. I focused on grade-A magic stones. ”

Director of Research and Woojin. And the members sat in the conference room to hear his research.

Director of Research, who will show you the data collected there and begin explaining it again.

“Class A magic stones had the power of life unlike any other. ”

“Yes? The power of life? ”

“Haha, it's just something I randomly pasted. ”

The Director of Research opened his mouth as he looked at the screen.

“There was a substance inside the Class A Magic Stone that could make life longer possible. ”

“Yes?”

“Huff! A lifesaver! ”

“No way! That's amazing, isn't it? ”

An extension of life. Maybe it's what all humans crave. Also, if you are rich, many people will want to keep your life prolonged by robbing you of all your wealth.

However, everyone was surprised at the fact that such a secret was hidden in Class A Magic Stone.

“But it's not about making people younger or activating their physical functions. ”

“Yes? Isn't it a little strange to say that it's an extension of life? ”

“Of course you can think that. But they exert their power on the other side. ”

“What about the other side? ”

“Energy. For example, when you get old, you lose your strength, right? We can energize them. We can energize those who have reduced lives. ”

Woojin didn't quite understand. I understand it's energizing, but what do you mean, reduced life?

“What are you talking about? ”

“Haha…… In short, there are people with abilities and old people who use a lot of energy. Age means physical dysfunction, but with age, energy gradually decreases. But if you restore that energy, it means that you can live a little longer while living a healthy life. The weakening of energy means that all the functions of the body are gradually diminished. ”

“I see... But what's the difference between that and abilities...?" ”

He began to answer questions like this.

“Do you know anything about the power of prophecy? ”

“Yes? Of course I do. Someone very close to me is Korea's greatest prophet. ”

“I see. Then you know the Seeker won't live long, right? ”

Nod.

Ujin nods. The principal of the study was slightly drowsy about what to say.

“Prophecies are those who break the taboo of God. Seeing the future is something only God can do, but prophetic powers use the power of God. Whenever the punishment is prophesied, there is a rumor that their health decreases. ”

This was known to all the others. Such rumors often spread, and none of the prophets lived long, and most of them turned their backs on the world at a young age.

“Decreased health means that your body's energy eventually becomes significantly weaker. It may seem normal, but it's not very flawless on the outside. However, it seems that the power of life in the Magic Stone of Grade A will also give life to the Prophets. ”

“Is it…… true? ”

“Yes, you can trust me. ”
