Chapter 248
Episode 248: Crystal Spiral Energy Release Device
“stop. “What are you doing now?”
“oh?”
Lee Ha-seo opens his eyes wide and looks in my direction.
“Uh… … . No, this is just… … . No, it’s not like that!”
I don’t know what is and what is not, but anyway, Lee Ha-seo hurriedly threw the bow hanging from the end of the tongs into the glass case and closed the lid.
Rattling rattling.
You seem confused, right?
She was able to close the lid of the case only after making several clanging noises.
“Well, it was never like that. My favorite is – no, not this one. Uh, I mean!”
For some reason, Lee Ha-seo hesitates, covering his mouth with a bright red complexion.
‘why… … .’
I already knew that he was quite a crazy person, but why did Lee Ha-seo look like she was caught by a hot guy while eyeing another man in a situation like this?
“I understand, so you don’t have to say more.”
“Ah, I see you understand!”
“yes.”
“Ah, I’m glad-”
Lee Ha-seo wipes his eyes with both hands and looks relieved. … … Did you cry?
“But- how did you appear? Teleportation?”
“no. “It’s transparency.”
“Wow- really? uh? Then-perhaps?”
“I was watching the meeting earlier.”
“Uh oh – me, I am! So ah!”
“no! Please stop because it has nothing to do with me whether you eat earthworms or dirt!”
After repeating the same nonsense for a long time, we were able to have a more proper conversation.
“The patients who came in this time.”
“yes.”
“Are you worried?”
“Yes, that’s right. “I think cosmic radiation using crystalline spiral energy might help, but it’s been banned.”
“But so far, that device has never produced the intended results, right?”
“That’s right! “The structure and design seem to be in order, but strange phenomena occur every time.”
“Do you remember the terms of the contract?”
“Uh, what kind of contract?”
“We signed a contract. “Let me examine my body once a month or-”
“oh! Ah, you agreed to help me with my experiment, right?”
“yes. The crystal spiral energy experiment. This month, I would like to fulfill the terms of the contract by helping with the experiment. How about that?”
“Helping with an experiment? how?”
“Let’s go look at the device first.”
* * *
“This is it.”
“Yes, the name is [Crystal Spiral Energy Emission Device].”
I said, looking at the wires and spiral coils connected to the bottom.
“Does it run on electricity?”
“Uh, that’s auxiliary power. Jogi, there is a magic stone in that case.”
“Aha, I see.”
It’s powered by magic stones. The structure is exactly the same as seen in the game. So what that means is… … .
‘It’s an absurd structure.’
That huge object, big enough to fill a room, is not a medical device… … . It was an object that looked like a celestial globe or armillary sphere that medieval humans used to measure the positions of celestial bodies.
Rings of various sizes are intricately intertwined around the central axis, and blunt-looking crystals rotate along with the rings in a mysterious way.
“How did you come up with this?”
“When you are ‘discharged’ from our hospital. “Did you see the gift I put in the bag?”
When I ‘escaped’ from this hospital, for some reason there was [Ancient Man’s Blueprint] in my bag. And the message window displayed the blueprint as a reward for the achievement.
“… … “Did you put that there?”
“yes that’s right. While I was preparing to help with discharge, inspiration suddenly struck me. Since Shinhwa is an alien, I was wondering if you could complete this if you look at the blueprint.”
‘It’s inspiration… … .’
Did the guy on the other side of the message window pretend that Lee Ha-seo’s thoughts were a reward for his achievements? Or did he inspire Lee Ha-seo in order to reward his achievements?
“aha?”
“This is something I made after looking at the blueprint a while ago. How about this? Mr. Shinhwa, what did you create after looking at the blueprint?”
It’s a shame, but I’m using the blueprints to interpret the language of the ancient species rather than making anything. I made something, but what I made using blueprints was a weapon.
After hearing my explanation, Lee Ha-seo sighed as if he was a little disappointed.
“Weapons? As expected, as we analyzed, the blueprint was really… … Was it just making something up?”
“Maybe so. but.”
“yes?”
“Regardless of the blueprint, I can improve the device you created.”
“Ehhhh? really?”
I don’t know what function Lee Ha-seo wants to implement with this machine, but this device, which only has the ability to turn normal people into madmen, can be converted into a medical device.
When I elaborated, Lee Ha-seo responded with a serious expression rather than the strange expression he had shown so far.

“I don’t want any other features. I want to perfect this machine to save people – people injured in surreal disasters – people suffering from surreal diseases. and… … .”
This is a desire or wish that I heard several times while playing [Cthulhu World].
‘Of course, this is a good wish that a good doctor trapped in a cosmic horror world would make… … .’
As was the case in the game, the latter part of the wish was continued.
“and… … . Ultimately, I want to eliminate even the disease called ‘death’. A world where no one dies and no one is unhappy and can live happily ever after. I want to create a world like that… … . “Can Shinhwa from Andromeda make my wish come true?”
In one sense, it is a wish that could have been in a positive form, but in another sense, it is the twisted wish of a typical super villain.
Most of the Lee Ha-seo I’ve seen in games end up going completely crazy after obsessing over that wish.
And Lee Ha-seo, who signed a contract with a transcendent being from another world, becomes the final boss of the route called [Re-Animator], becoming a madman who will bring destruction to this world.
‘It’s a typical zombie plot, so it’s really scary.’
Once this route begins, the game transitions into a full zombie & creature game.
Zombies of disgusting shapes, designed without level control, continued to pour out endlessly, over and over again. I died a lot on that route.
‘But because we are managing it so closely… … . ‘It won’t go that far, right?’
In addition, it can solve the problem of Bongilcheonpa, and it is a recovery device that can be used continuously in the future. Although limited, it can also be used to restore sanity.
“good. “Then let’s get started.”
* * *
In the game, it was a system where you just shoved in a mountain of magic stones and expensive resources and pressed the [Remodel] button, and there was a 5% chance that things would improve little by little.
‘Honestly, in some ways it’s more convenient.’
But now I have to figure out the structure myself and fix it with my own hands.
‘Fortunately, it was a type of magic technique rather than a machine.’
This ring replaces the magic circle, and the crystal itself acts as a rune that gives it specific properties.
Like the magicite gun and other artifacts, this is something I can improve or modify.
“iced coffee-”
Lament below.
This is because I ripped out the ‘useless parts’ of the [Crystal Spiral Energy Release Device].
“I don’t need this.”
This means that everything has been removed, leaving only the skeleton.
Waddeuddeuk-Warrrrr-
Lee Ha-seo was in tears after seeing most of the machine being torn apart, but he had wasted too much time to get to this point. I continued the work, ignoring Lee Ha-seo’s concerns.
“It would be nice to have more general-purpose features, but let’s tackle the immediate problem first.”
“The immediate task?”
“Yes, you’re going to use it to treat people who have earthworms burrowing into their bodies, right?”
“Oh, that’s right.”
This device, or would it be better to call it a magic circle? Anyway, the problem with this magic circle is that there is no core to implement a clear effect.
‘Plus, there are problems beyond the lack of a core.’
In order to even partially achieve Lee Ha-seo’s desired goal, a more special core is needed. If I could create something at a normal level, I would have been able to use recovery magic in the first place.
There are many spells for breaking and destroying in this game, but magic for healing and restoration is extremely difficult – and requires an unreasonably high cost.
“What is that?”
“It’s a magic stone.”
“That’s a magic stone?”
The thing embedded in the spot where the core should be is an icosahedral magic stone shining in a color that is difficult to describe. It took quite a bit of effort last night to make this.
“That’s not true – what are those impurities contained inside?”
Hmm, as expected from a doctor who deals with surreal diseases, he asks sharp questions.
I responded by using magical power and telekinesis to change the shape of the device and inserting a new spell.
“This is an artifact I got lucky yesterday. “It’s probably something that this hospital feeds the Black class.”
“A body?”
“It’s not that much, it’s a fragment removed from a symbol that contains the power of the incarnation.”
“Something like that… … . “You got it because you were lucky?”
“yes.”
Lee Ha-seo asks with his eyes wide open, “What are you really doing?” Andromeda aliens are really the best. I started saying things like, “It’s really, really cool.”
To be precise, this is the very thing that created the bow and bow yesterday, the [Egg Pouch] imbued with the power of the [Drinker of Fear].
[The Fear Drinker] eventually couldn’t hold back and tried to descend through the [Egg Sac], and I interrupted his descent at the exact right time.
The core of this act is to forcibly exhaust the power of the beings of the abyss by interfering with Advent, but due to the power they poured into Advent and that power, they are able to intercept the artifact that has been upgraded to a [Symbol of the Beings of the Abyss]. point.
‘Magic power is lost in one way or another, so only about 10 to 30% can be recovered, but it is such an absurd amount that a human born with genius talent cannot gather it even after repeating it about 10 times in a lifetime.’
Anyway, this magic stone is an item made by mixing a part of the [egg sac] with the [purified water] previously recovered from Samneung in Paju.
An item that can no longer be called a magic stone. A name other than Magic Stone is also displayed in the tooltip window.
[Avatar Stone: An item created by mixing the hunger of a ‘mountain predator’ and the thirst of a ‘drinker of fear’. It can embody their power or be used as a sacrifice for their advent.]
“Okay, that’s it.”
“It’s done?”
“Oh, it’s not over. “Please step back for a moment.”
I reached towards the door and activated a spell.
[lock]
[Wall of Power]
From now on, this is a trade secret. Below… … . Even if I tell you to leave, I won’t leave anyway. Since I am bound by the contract, I will not cause any unnecessary interference or leaks.
However, I also created a barrier towards Lee Ha-seo to prevent him from getting any closer.
“If you force yourself to approach, it may be considered a hostile act and we may attack you.”
“I understand.”
After adding a few more magic and safety devices to prepare for unexpected situations, I began the final work.
[recognize]
Gripping support-
Light radiating in all directions. Huge amount of spark.
I didn’t want to use [Perception] if possible, but objects powered by [Avatar Stone] cannot be controlled with normal level magic.
[Awareness] gives me the power to understand the structures and laws that make up this world.
An absurd sense of omnipotence, joy, and pleasure welling up from my toes.
Sensing power that surpasses human cognition provides information about everything in all directions. Lee Ha-seo has the same expression as a religious person experiencing religious wonder. People moving beyond this wall. Patients lying down. Madmen who instinctively sense something and cry out. Even the monsters in the closed ward beyond that building are rampaging. And I can even feel the gaze of the headless Gong Yi-su looking at me – no, I see, hear, and smell everything from every angle in an instant. I touched it, I tasted it.
At the same time, I was able to understand how and why the object in front of me existed in this place.
Such understanding provides the authority and power to reorganize the object’s form and way of being.
[The unique function of the L-class accessory ‘Carcosa’s Mask’, ‘Madman’s Dexterity’, is activated.
// Madman’s Dexterity: You can unlock the artifact’s hidden abilities or attempt modifications to give it other abilities.]
A golden glow that colors the entire room.
Okay, forget the previous form.
From now on, exist for me and live the way I want.
Soon the renovation was completely completed.
“Ah, it’s a goal. “My head hurts.”
Now it is possible to treat the patients of Bongilcheonpa.
I shook my head for a moment and then spoke to Lee Ha-seo.
“It is done. Now, this is the function you want… … .”
“Ahh- ahhhhh-”
Lee Ha-seo sheds tears.
“i love you. i love you “I will love you with all of my body, my soul, my past, my future, and my present.”
Saying that, Lee Ha-seo approaches me. Those little red lips parted, her slender white fingers raised, an expression as if she had been driven mad by hunger and thirst. An action as if she would grab my body and put it in her mouth at any moment.
“what? Wait- teacher, stop!”
There still remains a barrier created there to prevent interference from Lee Ha-seo.
Dig support –
The electricity set in the barrier automatically activates, pushing Lee Ha-seo back.
“Ugh, stop! Calm down!”
I hurriedly took the barrier away, but it was a little late. Lee Ha-seo was thrown into a corner of the room and fainted.
“Uuuh- teacher, it’s okay…” … ? “He didn’t die.”
Fortunately, thanks to the hasty collection, the damage was not severe enough to be life-threatening. It looks like he just passed out.
“Ah, really, this unexpected behavior is really… … .”
No matter how much you complete the item you’ve been desperately wanting, isn’t it a bit too much?
I shook my head and laid Lee Ha-seo down properly, then looked at the newly completed [Crystal Spiral Energy Release Device].
“Anyway, we now have a recovery base.”
