Episode 232. Cogwheel.
The two forces that were intertwined to occupy the top of the tower were divided into three as of today.
Ordin, the son of God, has been searching for a way to the top of the tower for a long time.
And Bergin, who possesses the soul of Bor, the original owner of the tower.
Not only this, but three dragons who are said to be the true masters of this world are moving to stop and stop them.
I guess I should say four, not three.
There was someone preparing to go to the top of the tower without anyone but Verdin knowing.
“Wow, Verdin is truly amazing. A picture was created that looked like I had betrayed anyone. “I can’t believe you believe me even at this moment.”
Verdin’s former companion, a muscular troll controlled by Verdin, collected the corpses of the remaining dragons in the Legion without anyone knowing.
This is a plan so amazing that it was able to avoid the eyes of Rox, who had control of countless alleys.
When the square iron plate connected to the Legion’s underground waterway opened, a monster with a mouth as big as a hippopotamus waiting inside swallowed Ardyn.
Then, when the troll closed the iron plate, the hippo monster began swimming through the underground waterway. It left the Legion so that no one could chase it, and brought the dragon’s body to Philip.
A small workshop hidden in Blade’s Edge Canyon.
After obtaining a fresh dragon corpse that had not even begun to decompose, Philip immediately began research using his alchemy.
The blood and flesh of Ardyn, the first dragon to be killed by Verdin, began to be reborn as a new monster through Philip’s modification technology.
He risked his life to conduct forbidden research. The medicines he had previously created could not withstand the human body, but the new product he created using dragons was different.
Chi profit.
Let Philip inject the liquid he made using dragon blood into the goblin, the smallest of his modified monsters.
The shape of the pupils changed into a dragon-like shape, and the muscles bulged.
In addition, as the water began to flow, the skin hardened and its texture became longer.
Philip cheered at the reaction of a test subject he had never seen before. Not only was the research successful in the direction he wanted, but the goblin’s original form was not destroyed and only the strengths of the dragon were brought about.
Philip, who was looking around at the goblin, clapped his hands.
He loved it so much that he grabbed the goblin’s arms and danced around with him.
“At this level, I think I can even stand up to the guys Verdin mentioned… .”
He did not end his research with goblins, but also injected it into other modified monsters.
And only after all five monsters were successful did he become confident of the results of the experiment and contacted Verdin.
He was staying behind enemy lines, pretending to join hands with Ordin, so he acted as cautiously as possible.
If you make even the slightest mistake, your life will be in danger regardless of whether the experiment is successful or not.
Someone came up behind him. Philip adjusted his glasses with a nonchalant expression and spoke while moving the joints of one of the gargoyles among the monsters he had successfully studied.
“What brings you here? “Mr. Albus.”
Albus’ pure white snake, which had crawled behind Philip’s back, raised its head and spoke.
“Ordin wants to see you.”
“Okay, since I can’t leave the capital, I think you’ll have to go to the tower alone. “Is it possible?”
Philip answered, resting his chin and closing and opening his eyes as if he was thinking for a moment.
“It won’t be a problem getting there, though. Aren’t Verdin’s soldiers guarding the Legion now?”
“They said that if you move, they will send troops in time. Amon will meet you when you arrive at the Legion.”
“Is it difficult for them to come here?”
“I think so. It seems like Vergin is actively keeping Ordin in check… .”
The lab shook violently.
At the same time, Albus’s snake shrunk its body and wrapped itself around Philip’s leg and continued speaking.
“Damn it! “Have we come this far already?”
“What do you mean?”
“Bergin. He is taking out those who joined hands with Ordin one by one. “More than half of the Numbers that follow my commands have already disappeared.”
“For more details, go to the tower and listen. If you need anything, please leave here quickly. “Outside, I will bide my time.”
Philip asked, looking at his lab with a perplexed expression.
“Who is visiting here now?”
“I do not know either. “They are probably minions sent by Vergin or Baphomet.”
“Otherwise, no one would come here after me.”
“First, I will lure them somewhere else, so you can go straight to the Legion.”
After finishing the conversation, Albus’ snake quickly crawled across the ground and headed outside. After fixing his gaze on Philip and confirming that he had left, he opened his bag and began to pack his things with a small smile on his face.
“This is truly heaven helping me.”
I was wondering how to get to the Legion without the eyes of Ordin and his minions.
‘I never thought things would work out this easily.’
After completing preparations, Philip left the laboratory with the five modified monsters.
This was a moment that was consistent with the phrase written somewhere in the tower, setting the tone for opposing the creatures called gods.
After arriving at the royal capital, I headed straight to the underground city.
Even if I go to the palace right now, what I can do is limited, and if I interfere incorrectly, a situation could arise that could turn them into enemies, so I have to be careful. My goal is not who will sit on the throne, but the final key to the top of the tower they hold.
The ultimate goal of my operation is to take Bae Hu-ryeong, who is said to be possessed only by the emperor of the Rockefeller family who holds hegemony on this continent.
“Get out of the way.”
As I entered the underground city, two guards blocked my path. I didn’t explain to them who I was and why I was here. I just show Strange’s emblem with the appropriate auras so they know they are no match for me.
The guard who spotted me first lifted his helmet to face me and put one knee on the ground. It moved so fast that it boomed! Enough to make a sound.
“Meet the matriarch of Strange!”
As he raised his voice, the knight next to him noticed and followed suit.
How do they know my identity? All sorts of thoughts came to my mind at that moment, but I didn’t care and motioned for them to get out of the way. Anyway, I have memorized the path to this place in my past life, and I already know where my brothers are.
As the two guards moved to the sides, the residents of the nearby underground city began to whisper. Well, it’s inevitable that someone with Strange’s name would come down to the basement so openly. Moreover, one of the guards called me head and clearly indicated my location. It is natural for those who are called the lowest class in the capital to be afraid of me.
“How did you know me?”
One of the guards answered my question.
“Lord Verdin’s brother gave us a portrait. When the matriarch arrives here, he immediately opens the way and tells me to guide him to where he is… .”

“My older brother?”
“What is his name?”
“Tony, Tony de Strange. He also said that if you say his name, he will know it right away.”
Tony, the eldest of the three trash brothers, prepared a place for me.
Did you do that because you knew when I would come? And that too, handing over the head of the family to a lowly soldier.
No matter how much of a jerk Tony was, there was no way he would do something this stupid. If there is a special person among the enemy who can activate his abilities just by knowing my face, then it would be the same as if I, the matriarch of Strange, had done something so dangerous that I was threatened with death.
It would be okay if the portrait didn’t represent my face properly, but if it depicted my face in detail to the level that hangs in Castle Strange, it would be a big problem.
‘If the bottom guard recognizes my face right away, that means the portrait is not normal.’
I lightly tapped the guard on the shoulder and spoke in a whisper.
“Can I see the portrait you said you saw?”
“Well, Tony has it.”
“What about a copy?”
“… “Okay, then let me guide you to where Tony is.”
The voice is loud, but the voice is immature, as if a screw is missing.
After ordering the guards with him to guard the entrance, he started walking ahead to lead me to where Tony was.
Most underground cities were built by collecting waste such as wooden planks, tree trunks, or straw left over from stables above ground. Of course, even in this so-called garbage collection point isolated from the royal capital, their own hierarchy and strict command system remained.
The guard who guided me led me to a hut-like place made of huge tree roots, and saluted the large man wearing a black cloak waiting outside, along with a command I had never heard before.
“Black Sword!”
As the large man saluted with the same slogan, the guard lowered his hand and introduced me to him.
“This is Verdin, Tony’s brother and the head of the Strange family.”
The large man took off his cloak and showed his face.
A large scar drawn in the shape of an X on his rough face.
The moment I saw his face, I knew who he was right away.
This is the greatest assassin on the continent who was sent by the three brothers to kill me in my past life.
‘Makhachev’, the master of the Cross Guild
“Hello, my name is Makhachev and I am moving under orders from Tony. Please take care of me in the future.”
I made eye contact with him and nodded slightly.
“Where is my brother?”
“Tony is currently on a reconnaissance mission. His younger brother, Johnny, is inside.”
“A reconnaissance mission?”
“Johnny will explain that. Would you like to go inside first?”
Makhachev pointed inside the hut with a good smile. I glanced at the deadly force contained in his fingertips, and then answered while holding the sword at my waist.
“No, I’m not going inside. “Please call Brother Johnny here.”
