"Oh, did you even cast a countermagic (counter magic) spell? You're healthy."

Seeing me chant a spell, Alice says so with pleasure.

Apparently, she doesn't realize the existence of the "eyes" I created with my magical eyes (wizard eyes).

It should also be obvious from the fact that Alice does not use magic sensing (sense magic) spells because she herself does not have magic light, and if so, it is also logical that she cannot capture the "eye".

I move the clear "eyes" that appear at the same height as my gaze toward Alice.

The speed at which the "eye" travels while floating through the air is about the same as when a person walks.

In the compressed air, the "eyes" move slowly.

It'll take more than a minute to get to that wall.

I stand up for Alice for the purpose of buying time.

"You called us' young adventurers' earlier, but you wouldn't be a big difference. Does your conscience not hurt? Stop this evil behavior. What you're doing is an unacceptable crime of murder."

While I'm at it, I wonder if the act would have gone a little too far.

But I chose words to poke the steeple of undead researcher Alice.

And then Alice took my word for it and started laughing like crazy.

"Hahahahahahaha! Conscience or bad behavior? Crime? Ridiculous! If you're a magician too (Mage), you'll see the beauty of the research that pushes the world forward! Yeah, don't you see! I had to drop out of college and be a scumbag about adventurers, to fall like you!

Yes, while Alice was speaking, "The Eye" came closer to Alice.

"Okay? My research is groundbreaking! I'm doing what no one in the college could have done by being bound by crap about bioethics! The life of a human being at the bottom like rubbish is just as rubbish compared to the value of what our elite can become! I'll let the idiots know I don't understand!" Achievement "is heavier than the lives of garbage people!

While Alice unfolded her offensive theory, "The Eye" finally got to the front of the wall of the matter.

Ride through its entrance and through to the other side of the wall.

The sight that was spreading on the other side was suspicious of my eyes.

A total of twenty zombies stood side-by-side, trying to hide behind Alice's left and right sides, behind the "wall".

Ten on the right, ten on the left.

And surprisingly, those zombies uniformly had long bows (long bows) in their hands.

On its back, moreover, is carried an arrow barrel containing numerous arrows.

Usually, zombies and skeletons that a mage can produce by exercising a deceased generation (create-undead) spell on a corpse cannot handle tools that require complex manipulations such as bows and arrows.

In the first place, the deceased generation (create-undead) spell itself is a curse ban, which the college shouldn't be teaching...

Even if you manage to clear it there, it shouldn't be possible to use a bow and arrow.

And this should be the same with naturally occurring undead, examples of undead dealing with tools of such complex mechanisms have, as far as I know, not been described in the past.

I mean, if this legion of zombies could actually use the long bow they're holding right now.

That, as far as I can tell, will be the new "achievement" Alice has produced in the world, not described in any of the college's books.

This is certainly astonishing.

But......

But in any case, this would be the identity of the trap she has in place.

It seems to me that choosing this place as a place to experiment with her own "achievements" and using us as her first and flourishing victim also coincides with her nature that she has seen and heard before.

And if that's the case...

I move my eyes and make them storm the wall.

The "eyes" then passed through the "wall" and fell to the other side thereof.

It still is.

The "eye" of the magical eye (wizard eye) does not have the ability to pull through walls.

In other words, this wall is an illusion with no entity.

There is a medium spell called Phantom (Illusion), with which it is possible to create such a "phantom of the wall".

Probably due to that spell.

If so, the enemy's aim is also clear.

Using this vast underground space, which is about a hundred meters away, the spell would be a tactic to unilaterally hive this one with an attack at a distance where the bow and arrow will not reach.

And it was definitely actually dangerous.

If we had stormed helplessly, at least the first simultaneous fire would have bathed beautifully with defensive magic in time, and then not everyone would be able to dodge all the arrows.

Depending on the accuracy of the shooting of the zombies she prepared, there would also have been those who would have been seriously injured by being shot through their torso, hands and feet by those arrows, or, if they were unlucky, those who would have been pierced in the head by arrows and died instantly.

That could have been me, or Satsuki or Mi or Cyril.

The long bow (Longbow) is a large bow as long as the length of the human body, and the arrows emitted from its powerful strings boast a range of up to three hundred meters if shot with a moderate angle of shot at the diagonal top.

Even places that cannot have a large angle of shot like this underground space would seem to have a range of about a hundred meters, in which case the range would also be equals to the effective range where "it is possible to aim and hit".

I don't know if shooting is possible in our position right now, but I guess the hitting accuracy issue and above all the intent is to avoid showing off while this one is in an easy place to retreat.

It's understandable as a tactic to think about attracting people to irretrievable places and then turning them into hives with no escape.

─ Well, if we get this far, then we should move on to action.

I call three guys, Satsuki, Mi and Cyril, share information and tell them what to do.

And myself, I cast two more spells.

One is a countermagic (counter magic) spell.

This is a spell that increases resistance to magic and works on all allies if used as densely as it is now.

The effect is to rest, but it also consumes less magic vegetables, and if you have time to prepare, there is no reason not to use it when dealing with high-ranking magicians.

And the other, naturally, is "that spell".

You don't think I can use this to see how Alice is doing.

It is believed that the first craftsman played a role.

Cyril, on the other hand, also uses a blessing (blessing) miracle, and this one seeks to strengthen while resting.

─ ─ Well, let's just say that now we're as ready as we can hope.

Finally, it's time for a showdown.
