“The door opens. ”

As soon as he opens the door, Krasus throws his mask off.

Until now, I had a completely different view. A huge room full of keys appeared. The key was installed in a very orderly, tall fashion, as if the library had arranged the books for storage.

Instead of a bookshelf, it was a place where all sorts of different keys were compulsively collected. At the end of the large corridor was a magnificent stone door with beautiful symbols carved around it.

Krasus gives you goosebumps, even though he's a dragon. I hid the key in the key. I can't believe we have to open up our paths through this meaningless, repetitive labor. A terrible premonition passes through Krasus.

“When is this going to be over? As soon as contamination is discovered, things are urgent. You don't think we're supposed to be looking for a pink elephant hide key here? ”

“No, Krasus. We're here. This is our destination. ”

Schleivich pulls the dagger out of his arms, shrugging and tearing off the rug. Under the square cut rug was a piece of wood. As Schleivich sweeps the wooden floor with his palm, chanting the incantation, the floor becomes increasingly transparent and shines down like glass.

“Oh, yes. The road isn't just behind the door. ”

I looked down through the floor, turning into clean ice. A huge space was flowing with purple magic, but it looked like a vast river.

On both sides of the river of purple magical power were huge buildings that looked like a temple or a tower. They were unfolding endlessly.

“It's the wonder of the towers all over the world. They distribute the magical power flowing from here, send it to each Horse Tower, and refine it by sending the magical power from the Horse Tower here. We call this the End of Days Treatment Facility. Hey, the facility at the end is the nuclear reactor. This color looks like it's rotting. ”

At the end of the magical corridor was a magnificent structure made of crystals. If that light had been normal, it would have sparkled in pale yellow, but somehow it was covered in dark rat color, like the rotting pale color of a dead corpse. Disgusting blue light flashed between the oranges.

“Krasus. As you may have noticed, this road is protected by multiphase complex magic. The only way to get through this barrier is to take the shortcut. ”

“Never mind the tribe. Stay behind me. ”

As Schleivich turns back, Krasus fires his ion brace into a translucent space with tolerance. The blue burning brace melts the glass in an instant and opens up the space below. A hot wind and ionic odor swept through the Magic Passageway below.

Cough!

The ceiling collapses, the stones fall, and the dragon and the tripod descend with magical force. The magical river flows mysteriously down the translucent corridor, with miraculous ridges lined from side to side.

“Ugh!”

As soon as they stepped down, the Contaminated Wizards rushed in between the mirage. As Schleivich fires a magical flame and the cyst bursts, green chrysanthemums flow down the line.

"Tsk!"

Crassus kicks his tongue and once more squeezes out the air with his blade, the sound of steam gushing from the boiling pot fills the entire hall. Immediately, the contaminated people collapse.

Smells of ammonia boiling in the burning, melting flesh. Schleivich is fortunate that he hasn't thrown his mask off yet.

[Very low concentration of alien pollution in the air. Alarm unassigned. This alien contamination didn't happen here. It's not contagious. They brought in something contaminated from somewhere else.]

“You have the means to control the contaminants? ”

Eliminating the enemy, the Aegean dives into an end-of-life facility. A huge crystal was flashing in various ways.

The Wizard of the White Robe, who was manipulating his core in the middle, glances back and laughs. He had the eyes of white hair, and beautiful characters were drawn on the lobe.

“It's been a long time, everyone. I'm Argon. We're spheres, right? I've waited a long time.”

“Let's say that's your last greeting. ”

Crassus claps. It was a mind-blowing attack that would blow Argon's head off in no time. But the magic didn't work. Instead of blowing your head off, Argon's white hair shakes like a breeze.

“You have to give me time to talk. ”

“Who are you?

When the dragon roared and emitted steam, a man named Argon bowed down.

[Similar in appearance to the champion you once captured called Arden. Are they twins?]

Tyrant says the man who was unable to hear Tyrant's quantum comms was the one who spoke.

“Let me introduce you again. Argon, the champion of Yongsin Gelnorim. He serves as senator. ”

“Son of a bitch. Why are you crawling in here with Alien? ”

“So that's the whole point? I always thought dragons were lazy idiots for longevity, but they're quite impatient. ”

Argon places his hand on his face and half his face turns into the face of an old senator. Brimas, the Senate Chief who conducted the Illuvelas artillery operation at Makhu. Schleivich hisses in panic.

“Brimas? How so? ”

“Oh, poor Triford, the mortal! You pretend to be a great race, but you're just scum left on this star like that dragon over there. ”

“What?"

While Argon was smiling, she slowly froze from the tip of the Triford body until all activity ceased. It was the control magic of mortals against immortals. But that magic did not work for the dragon Krasus. Krasus shouts loudly.

“Cut the crap! The guy who sprinkled the water showed up here touching the control facility. Are you going to touch the magic of this star? ”

“Hands on magic? ”

While Krasus speaks, Argon scratches his hair.

“Son of a bitch. What are we gonna do, blow up this facility? By the way, isn't your god a fucking florazzo? Why are you bothering the captain? ”

“I didn't think dragons would come in person. I wouldn't even be able to see my face. Well, I'll think of it as a prize and explain it. ”

Argon grins and strokes his core with his hand.

“With all the magic of this star, I plan to open the gate in front of the Gamma-ray storm in Gehenna. Thanks to the Captain. I never thought he'd destroy the entire Magic Grid with that much power. Terrifying power, by the way. I've been thinking about Duke for a long time, but I never thought it would end so easily! ”

When I asked him why he was harassing me, he explained how he would harass me. I was surprised by the disconnection, but the dragon asked me again.

“Gamma rays? What's that? ”

“Not all dragons like you can understand the teachings of the Genorim, who wander through the stars and measure the universe. Just so you know, The time is exactly 10 minutes. Zenolim is wondering if the Captain can solve this problem. If you fail, your walls will not stop this attack. Posterior · · · · · · ·"

Along with that, Argon's body melts away. Crassus runs and catches on, but only the silver grain falls out of his palm, and soon it disappears into the air.

Crassus holds on to Schleivich, but the power of control is not at all ease. I stood still, frozen and still. The six eyes of all three faces are dazed. Crassus shouts, putting down Schleivich.

“Damn it. Hey, fairy. What's a gamma ray storm? What did he say? ”

[Gammaray burst is a gamma ray that periodically disinfects the universe. Gamma-ray jets near the speed of light when stars explode are the cosmic exterminators that make only 10 percent of the galaxy viable. It's not visible to the eye because it's not visible, but gamma rays become ionizing radiation that breaks intergenic bonds that drive life to its death.]

Crassus rolls his feet nervously and moves around. I desperately thought of it in my head, but I couldn't get a good picture. Because dragons did not have knowledge of DNA, it was not well understood that electromagnetic rays cut off the DNA of life, leading to death altogether.

“What are you talking about? An invisible storm that wipes out life? ”

[We don't know the details, but if we summon a gamma-ray jet as it is near to the light produced by the collapse of a supermassive star, the entire planet will be extinct. Earth's first extinction was due to this gamma storm.]

The Earth's Ordovist extinction was due to this gamma storm. At that time, countless living creatures were roasted and killed by gamma rays that penetrated the ozone layer of the Earth. If you bring it directly into the ozone layer of the Alphazeta, the planet will be disinfected from space as well.

"So you're saying there's something between those stars, and they open a portal and let it in?"

Maybe Metropolis didn't know it could work, but it also depends on the level of the gamma storm that comes in. If it had reached supernova explosion, it would have been useless with Metropolis' defensive gear. If things go that way, it's probably safest to just get on the Tyrant and escape to faraway space.

[Yes.]

Krasus pauses, his fingers twitching, and looks at the crystal stuck in his finger.

“Dammit. Why would Floraj do this? Was he eaten by the aliens? I'll either scatter my magic or use this core adjustment to change my magic. ”

Crassus sighs as he uncovers the magical cord. I looked at Schleivich with my sad eyes. I thought that there might be an unusual way until now.

“Hey fairy, this is hard to solve with my magic at once. Is there anything we can do? ”

[Magic Encryption Structure. There will be no answer but brute force for every value. As a quantum computer, it takes me eight hours to solve.]

I stood in front of the core and touched it, but I couldn't understand how to use the core as I had so far. It might explode as soon as I give it strength. What the hell do we do?

That's when we got word from the captain.

[Tyrant, prepare the synchronization system. I will go directly into Arden's head.]

"What?"

When Krasus asks again, the captain speaks.

[I will unlock the protection on the head of the Zenorim champion and use that code to dismantle the cryptographic spell. I don't think there's any other way to solve this challenge than to take the risk yourself. Open your dreams! I'm going into Arden's head.]
