An enormous amount of current flowed through the coil, and a magnetic field was formed.
A bullet floated inside the gun barrel, which had become vacuum for an instant, and the magnetic fields created by the intersecting coils strongly repelled it, firing a heavy bullet.
Poop!
The bullet flew with the sound of cutting through the air and reached the target at a speed exceeding Mach, and nothing seemed to be safe in front of it.
bang!
With the explosion, hard trees broke, and a thick cloud of dust rose.
It didn’t have as much destructive power as the 40MM, but it had a bigger impact, and everyone on the battlefield was startled, but John couldn’t help but click his tongue briefly.
“Tsk.”
Because I couldn’t hit the target.
Pusik.
The coil gun, which went into forced cooling, discharged steam from the fuselage, and at that moment, a beam of light flew towards where John was.
***
A sixth sense developed while wandering around the battlefield for a long time, and a super sense developed while awakening to physical abilities.
“Harm!”
There’s even a warning from Li.
If any one of these three were missing, it was clear that Gregory would have died right here and now.
With a movement close to instinct, he threw his body, and at the same time, a large crater was created in the place where Gregory had been.
“Kuk!”
Gregory groaned as the shock wave spread in all directions from the landing site.
It was clear that it would have been a fatal blow considering the shockwave that made the body numb even though it had been thrown quite far.
When I thought that the strengthened physical abilities, the protective equipment covering my body, and the items I had packed just in case would have been of no use, I felt sorry for myself.
“Conquer!”
“Multi Missiles!”
At the same time as Gregory shouted, Lithium cast a spell.
The number of magic missiles formed by activating magic and items memorized in advance is dozens.
In an instant, magic the size of an adult’s forearm formed in the air and all at once shot out towards where John was.
No matter how well the concealment and cover were done, it was impossible to hide the starting point of the bullet, and it was forced to enter the cooling system and emit thick steam, so John’s location was identified at once.
The sight of magical missiles mixed with guidance and flying towards one target all at once had the power to make the viewer open their mouths.
Lithium’s ability to single-handedly unleash an attack that would have been possible only with the mobilization of several gunships was formidable, and following Lithium’s guidance, other battle mages began pouring out their firepower at once, so even this single attack destroyed the mansion. It seemed difficult to be unharmed.
The complexion of the shaman and the cyborg changed, and the faces of Robin, Armstrong, and the servants who watched the situation turned white, but John’s expression did not change.
– Fiorene.
– Don’t worry!
A barrier was formed around the place where John was seated as the magic letters rose, and countless beams of light rose up.
“···What?!”
Lithium’s elated expression hardened, and Gregory’s face was distorted, but the beams of light emitted from Fioren’s barrier steadily intercepted the magic missiles.
So-so-so-so-so-so-so!
The sight of magic colliding and canceling out was like watching a large-scale fireworks display, and everyone stopped fighting for an instant and stared blankly at the splendid sight.
Everyone flinched at the energy generated by the collision of magic and magic, and Lithium, who watched it, clenched his teeth.
“huh!”
Concentrate your mind and adjust your mana to stretch.
The mana filled with Lithium’s will stretched out like a thread and reached the barrier, and at that moment, Fioren’s eyes twitched.
“Look at this?”
Sensing the magician’s will to interfere with his barrier, Fioren snorted and raised a strong will.
There are not many people who can guess Fioren’s realm just by looking at it.
It was not difficult for a mage with years and experience to shake off this level of interference, and Lithium had no choice but to hurriedly cut off mana at the hostile will pushed toward him.
“···done.”
His face turned pale at the presence of a wizard who seemed to be on the upper row than himself, but he could think of a smile on his lips.
During that short time, the barrier stopped, and several missiles evaded interception and rushed toward the target.
Uh.
Panels the size of a human torso floated up and covered John’s body, and Lithium’s eyes twitched at the unusual maneuver, but his cold smile did not disappear.
“no use!”
A flare and a wizard.
Like Gregory, Lithium’s magic, which often forms parties, was thoroughly adjusted for destruction and interpersonal warfare, and the crystal could be said to be a magic missile.
Lithium’s magic, which has destructive power and penetrating power on a different level than ordinary magic missiles, was enough to penetrate halfway defense facilities as it is, so it was not something that could be stopped by self-defense items.
There, Lithium, along with Gregory, is a veteran of countless battles outside the city.
His fingers moved slightly to adjust the magic missile’s trajectory, and the magic missiles that had been shooting around John changed their trajectory and lined up.
If one is blocked, the magic missile behind it will break the panel, and the magic missile that follows will pierce John’s torso.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
The magic missiles and panels collided, and air was seen to be pushed in all directions with an explosion.
“zone!”
The shaman and cyborg, who had been a little away, called out John’s name with pale faces, and Lithium and Gregory smiled bitterly.
Lithium’s magic missile, which was customized to be close to the Hellfire missile, had never betrayed their trust, and it was certain that it would do so this time as well.
Remembering once again that the gunship is the king of local warfare, Gregory opened a communication.
– what are you doing! push on! Even if you’re talented, you’re not immune to bullets!
– write!

Morale was reduced due to the loss of a comrade to the artillery fire from the enemy base, but the war situation was turned upside down by an allied attack just before.
Soldiers are beings who feed on fraud.
That time when I was trying to push the soldiers who had set out to intercept with my eyes shining at the rapidly charged morale.
bang!
“Ouch!”
A scream of pain escaped Lithium’s mouth with a sound too loud to be called a gunshot.
“lithium!”
In Gregory’s startled gaze, the optical camouflage was released and Lithium fell to the ground.
The reverberation of mana that was changed into light and scattered meant that the protective magic that Lithium always wore around his body had been pierced.
Gregory ran towards Lithium, who fell to the ground with a painful face and the thick smell of blood.
Gregory considered the lives of others other than his own as objects, but Lithium was an existence that should not be lost in such a situation.
Papabak.
Gregory, who ran wildly through the densely-grown trees and rushed to Lithium, inserted an emergency nanomachine-filled injection.
“Keah!”
“Be patient!”
The smile that had always been on his lips was nowhere to be seen, and Gregory, who was clenching his lips at the sight of Lithium struggling in pain, turned his gaze towards the mansion with terrifying eyes.
bang! bang! bang!
A continuous explosion sounded, and Gregory’s eyes widened as if they were about to tear.
“Ah!”
“Knock!”
The battle mages hidden by optical camouflage all at once exposed themselves and fell to the ground, and they didn’t seem to be as lucky as Lithium.
It was not thought that people with missing heads or with holes the size of basketballs pierced through their chests would be alive.
“bloke! . . . breath!”
bang!
Gregory, who was grinding his teeth and was about to swear, hurriedly hugged Lithium and rolled to the side.
puck!
A hole was pierced in the place where they were, with a loud sound, and Gregory’s cheeks, which had gained the courage to laugh at the slightest thing after touring all kinds of battlefields, became gloomy.

Murder in a matter of seconds.
Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the absurd scene where the talented people died in an instant, not just a simple murder.
Titi tititing!
The noise from the battle filled the surroundings, but among them, the smoke cleared with the sound that penetrated everyone’s ears, revealing John’s figure.
clap.
John could be seen reloading his anti-materiel sniper rifle among the panels who proudly showed off their presence as if there was no damage.
***
‘It’s worth using.’
After reloading, John’s gaze turned to the panel covering his body.
Unlike when I first got it, the appearance of the panel with a dark red color was very reassuring.
Even at a glance, it looked like an iron-walled fortress without a single crack, even though it had hit unusual magic directly, and of course there was a special reason for that.
Adamantium.
John swept all the adamantium that had been applied to the control center in the dungeon, and although he failed to synthesize the adamantium itself, it was not that difficult to knead the adamantium that already existed.
Although it is said to be a coating, the amount of adamantium covering the large facility was not easy, and he took half of it and applied it to the panel.
Adamantium rejects ability.
No matter how much Lithium’s Magic Missile is said to be a customized special magic, it is also an ability after all, so Adamantium strongly resisted and was able to block the attack without difficulty.
bullet there.
Just by lightly coating the bullets with adamantium, they were able to have strong penetrating power, and if it was a physical defense, they had the power to lightly crush the protective magic and hit the target.
A blow that could not be blocked unless it was a great wizard or warrior who had reached the level of a superhuman.
It was close to impossible for a single wizard to block an adamantium bullet, which is difficult even for a superman to block, and John neutralized four enemy wizards in an instant.
Now that Adamantium could not be transmuted, it was a pretty expensive price to pay, but John was not a waste at all.
Dealing with a special enemy requires a special investment, and John’s investment surely neutralized the enemy, so that was enough.
Everyone’s eyes gathered on John, who overwhelmed the battlefield in an instant, and John, who felt the attention, took a cigarette.
Chick.
“after.”
Everyone was stunned by the sight of the flames and darkness emitting white smoke, albeit for a moment.
“What?”
A low but clear voice pierced everyone’s ears.
“Kill.”
“write!”
A powerful cry rang out from the mouth of the shuddering cyborg, and magic power overflowed from the shaman’s body.
“Intercept!”
According to Robin’s instructions, the servants of the mansion appeared on the fence and took out their weapons, and the faces of the warriors who were fighting enemies in the forest turned to life.
Whoops!
Fioren’s barrier shone, and as if responding to it, the wizard on the fence created destructive power.
The person with this ability twisted his whole body and stood up, and Armstrong, who was blushing, managed to control himself and keep his seat.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
40MM shells destroyed the forest again, weapons filled with auras cut off the enemy’s breath, and large fireballs exploded, burning people along with the forest.
Tatatatatatang!
The servants who appeared on the fence opened fire in all directions to keep the enemy in check.
And.
bang!
The bullets aimed relentlessly at Gregory split the space, and Gregory, carrying lithium on his back, had no choice but to evade himself in an embarrassing manner.
– Retreat! retreat!
First day of commissioning.
There were fewer than ten survivors of the PMC Kodiak Bear.
