Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 76 Macologists (1)

Livelhein was going down a staircase to the depths of the Grand Ducal Castle with Cellheim and a handful of noble guards.

“How long do you think this is going to take? ”

“I think at least half of it is already underway. ”

A question from the Cellheim was answered by a servant of Ribble. While giving and receiving a short conversation, I continued to walk down the stairs to the depths.

How far down did it go? A huge iron gate stands in their way. As the Ribleman approaches the Iron Gate, Keltheheim opens his mouth to the noble guards accompanying him.

“Wait here. ”

In exchange for an answer, the noble friendly figure takes a step back and gives a satisfactory nod.

The iron gate, which was tightly closed, was opened as the librarian gave you the designated enchantment.

As the two vampires entered the dark interior, the magic lamps that were installed along the wide, long corridor turned on in succession.

But it was never bright enough. Barely beats the Darkness.

“It's been a long time coming here. ”

The deepest part of the Grand Ducal Palace was in a restricted area, and even the feet of two Vampire Dukes were rarely within reach.

“I had to. This secret workshop in the depths of the basement is like the private property of Grand Duke Stein."

“By the way, it's been a long time since I've seen Duke Stein's face. ”

“You seem busy preparing for the execution of your plan. ”

I made a busy move while having a light conversation. There were many iron doors to the left and right of the hallway.

And I arrived at the end of the conversation. There was a particularly grim iron door in front of my eyes.

As the librarian approaches the door and enters the ceremony, the door opens and a large cavity is revealed.

It was still dark, but it was enough to look inside. Hundreds of vials of unknown liquids were hanging on the walls, and I could see the experiments and the subjects everywhere.

I could fit in with the name of the secret workshop of the evil maestrologist.

And in the middle, a red-haired vampire was looking around for the "crystal of Riodin" that glowed orange.

“Welcome to my secret workshop. ”

“In the meantime, my regular reports have been delayed, so I came here myself. Duke Stein.”

Riblehammer says he enters the Secret Workshop first, and Cellheim follows behind and closes the iron gates.

“The secret workshop is still here. ”

The Cellheim lets out a word of solitude and tugs on a chair nearby. Stein opens his mouth, placing the 'Riodin Crystal’ in his hand on the table.

“The preparation process for great planning is going smoothly. We've been working on something to focus on lately, so we've been delayed. Dimensional magic is quite tricky, so there's a lot to worry about. ”

“I know that. Isn't that why you came here in person? ”

The servant speaks in a calm voice. Stein shakes his head with a look of helplessness.

The horse is confirmed. I can see it coming, but I don't understand it.

It was only natural that the Ribble Servants who had begun planning rather than Stein and Cellheim had the most urgent minds.

“…… so how far has the plan gone? ”

It was straightforward. The Ribble Servant's gaze was on Stein. Stein raises the tail of his mouth.

It might have felt a bit of pressure if it had not been a normal outcome, but fortunately, this time there was progress in the process, so I was able to keep a relaxed smile on my mouth.

“Was there any progress? ”

Cellheim asked me this time. Stein nods and opens his mouth.

“Of course.”

“How much? ”

Lively and un-vampier in the Ribbon servant's voice. I tried not to, but I had no choice but to let my expectations get in the way.

How long have you been waiting? Stein had more to look forward to since he was a non-verbal person without clear results.

“We're almost done with the basics of creating a dimensional gateway. ”

In Stein's reply, the two vampires felt overwhelmed with joy.

“Well done! Duke Stein!”

Cellheim said: Stein took the cup to his mouth with a satisfactory expression. The servant looks at them and calms down his excitement.

“Soon we'll be able to summon them here. ”

Cellheim and Stein smile, as well as his cold voice.

* * *

Giant dragons open their mouths.

“Bress is coming! Move!”

Zhang Hun warns Bress to approach with a loud voice. The hot flame pierces through the air.

Shin-Chul quickly developed a defensive spell, and deployed casts attack magic to counterattack.

“Fire Cannon. ”

Casting was not long. Attack magic has been completed with the starter.

- It looks like you used a higher level of magic, not a higher grade, to counteract quickly. It's not a bad choice, because the Earthling is doing the next move right after they finish their breasts.

Lischevald gives you a compliment. Seong-jun agreed with him by nodding his head.

While you two are at it, a stone of fire cannon smashes the head of an Earthling.

- Queeeeeeeek!

A sharp scream echoes. Giant dragons were classified as Class S, but they were magic.

However, the fact that Bress is a threat is constant because it is usable, large and strong.

“Let's go!”

Zhang Hun exclaims curiously and hurls himself toward the dragon. The train carrying the spear followed.

“I'll apply with magic! ”

Shin-Chul said, he and Han-Seok cast a spell to attack the Earthling. While the gaze of the dragon was focused on Shin-cheol and Han-suk, Jang-hoon and Jeong-chul swung their swords and spears as they narrowed the streets.

- Gaaaah!

Blood splattered red. The Scales and Hides of the Earthling were tough and sturdy, but they could not withstand the error.

However, the Earthling immediately counteracts whether or not it was fatally injured.

“Hehe!”

Jeongchul hurriedly retreated back. The left shoulder was bloody. Seong-jun stretched his left hand toward him and pulled up his magical power.

“Heel.”

“Thank you!”

He immediately joined the hunt. Over time, the dragon became bloody, but Seong-jun, who did not want to spend any more time, picked up the sword and intervened. The Earthling's neck flew away in a single blow.

“Absorption.”

Seong-jun absorbed physical strength and magical power from the dragon.

- The tuning didn't go up.

I didn't ask, but Lischevald reported that the tuning did not go up.

Instead of answering, Seong-jun nodded his head and took out the dimensional key.

The purple cobblestone adheres to the black key, giving off a dazzling glow. It meant that the magical power was full.

You can now open the Dimensional Gateway, but Seong-jun was going to go back to the mansion and fill the stable to maintain the Dimensional Gateway of the Workshop.

‘The workshop's dimensional gateway also needs to be recharged. After all, it takes magic to trigger and maintain. ’

Seong-jun remembered Zero's words. In the meantime, I was neglectful about ‘recharging’ because there have been many complex things such as fighting Gangwon Province, so I was still thinking about caring.

- Assault confirmed, measurement complete. You have completed a Class S dungeon.

The measuring device reacts shortly after a complete loss of breath. Han Seok recovered the cobblestone from the missing corpse. No items were dropped this time.

“Let's go.”

They leave the dungeon and return to the mansion. Seong-jun went down to the underground workshop of the main house where Zeros is.

Zeros was not involved in the attack on the dungeon, saying he had urgent research. Zeros walks out of the corner as he opens the door.

“Are you here?”

I had no strength in my voice. It seemed like he had been studying the ritual all night again.

“The Dimensional Key is charged. I want to charge this to the Dimensional Gateway.... ”

“This way, please. ”

Zeros led Seong-jun to the location of the dimensional gateway. Using a magical technique, I transferred the refined magical power contained in the Dimensional Key to the stable holding the Gateway.

“It's over.”

Zeros said with a faint smile on his mouth after finishing his last check.

“Sung-joon Kang. Are you ready to use the Dimensional Gateway right away? ”

“No. I have a few things to take care of over here, so I think we should finish that call." ”

Seong-jun shook his head and replied.

“Then, will you listen to me for a moment? There is a study that you might be interested in. ”

“Really? Let's get to the point. ”

Seong-jun's eyes sparkled. Zeros said there was something there.

I knew him well because I was close to him in my past life, when I had his name.

When Seong-jun showed interest, Zeros smiled at the mouth whether he was satisfied or not.

“I think I've found a way to send an army to this area." ”

Zeros' remarks were shocking, but perhaps not impossible. The Raid situation is also landing through the Dimensional Gateway, isn't it?

“Can you elaborate? ”

“In a nutshell, the study of rituals that could open a large-scale gateway has gone into orbit. I don't know when the research will be finished... but I can assure you it's not impossible to send an army here in the second place. ”

Zeros explained in an excited voice. Seong-jun had top command of the Russian army and Zeros knew about it.

Unlike the devil's army, empires made up of humans are damaged by modern weapons.

Of course, many monsters dodge bullets, but it was important that regular soldiers may kill them.

Zeros thought that if the "military" landed in this world, it would not be impossible to bring down the empire. And Seong-jun's thoughts were not very different either. An unusual stream of air flows through the workshop.

“What do you need? Tell me anything and I'll save you. ”

“Riodin needs a correction. The more the merrier.”

Zeros replied to Seong-jun's question. Now that the Imperial Node that was stationed on Earth has been destroyed, 'Riodin Crystal’ should be saved from the other side. It may be rare in the hunting grounds, but it won't be efficient.

“Soon we'll be on our way. ”

Seong-jun muttered like a soliloquy. He gets up from the chair with a short sigh.

“Don't worry about the 'Riodin Crystal’. Continue your research. I'll be in town as soon as this side of the business is resolved. ”

“I wish I could go now.... ”

Zeros blurs. He was not weak, but he had no assurance he could survive the empire's skilled assassins.

Seong-jun approached Zeros, put his hands on his shoulders and opened his mouth.

“You're doing well enough. ”

Seong-jun said, Zeros smiled a little later.
