Chapter 132.2. Researcher
-???’s POV-
It’s a common goal. It seems a natural consequence of being a magician who manipulates the life of plants and an excellent chemist, but the Immortality that Gerdz seeks is different from ordinary immortality.
“Takano Miu recovered from brainwashing. She called it self-healing, but I wonder if she is recovering in such a way she always restored her mental to sanity.”
Gerer’s quest for immortality is not only physical.
Maintaining her mental state was also a goal.
There are many ways to just achieve immortality. Become a Lich, the King of the Dead, or a Vampire. Become a plant. Turn into an electronic being.
But Gerer wanted to become immortal as a human being.
She would retain her senses, taste food, and enjoy sleep.
Above all, the mental.
In the end, she believes she must immortalize her mental state. After a few hundred years, even if her body is immortal, her mind will become worn out and emotionless.
Lich will only envy and hate the living, and Vampire will grow tired of being alive and commit suicide by stepping out into the sunlight themselves. Electronic life forms will be engulfed by the accumulated data, their minds will collapse, they’ll lose their ego, and they’ll disappear. All this is due to the wear and tear of the mind.
Immortality of the mind is essential.
The person seals their self and creates a separate personality. After a certain number of years, their memories get erased. That’s not mental immortality.
Something else is needed. Something makes her mind immortal too.
Something that doesn’t wear out the mind like God does.
“Return to sanity ……. Would this magic keep the spirit in a constant state? Can it heal when it wears off? I need to experiment. Focus on kidnapping Takano Miu. Nn?”
Gerer is excited that she may have gotten a hint about mental immortality, but then an alarm rings from a small terminal fitted to his arm, and he frowns.
“Enhanced Thorn Princesses has been defeated? I’ve been placing them in the corridor leading to here.”
Gerer operates the terminal and groans at the results. Enhanced Thorn Princesses Takano Miu and the others were defeated. 36 similar Enhanced Thorn Princesses are placed in the passageway connecting that hall to here.
Furthermore, the passageway was covered with thorns and blocked by iron ivy, making entering it impossible.
However, the terminal was telling us that someone had broken in.
“Iron Clump Ivy is a plant resistant to both physical and magic, yet it was easily destroyed? Did it start a battle with the Enhanced Thorn Princesses?”
There are surveillance cameras and motion sensors in the corridor, and vital sensors embedded in the body of the Enhanced Thorn Princess.
“Surprise attack, maybe the warriors did it, but I don’t see any response from other surveillance sensors to see this. The reaction is coming from the hall where Takano Miu and her group defeated the Enhanced Thorn Princess. Don’t think they’ve teleported?”
Did they teleport from Ambrose Ninny’s [Mirror Walk]? Was it ostensibly fake information that it couldn’t be used without a magic mirror of special nature installation?
“However, there are 36 Enhanced Thorn Princesses. These plants can unify their will among plants and act without a stitch of difference. And they have also planted various trap plants. I don’t know how many of them were attacked by surprise, but according to the sensors, several. Even Aguni should be no match for them, hmm?”
Gerds smiles confidently, boasting of his absolute defense, but his face immediately loses color.
“It’s too early! They’ve defeated Enhanced Thorn Princesses! The newest type of Enhanced Thorn Princess made by my concubine!”
The Thorn Princess’s vitals disappear one by one, and Gerer’s mouth shivers.
“Thirty-six of the newest type of reinforced Thorny Princesses can’t hold out! They’ve defeated all of them!”
She peels her eyes in disbelief, astonished, and hurriedly turns her attention to the blocked passageway. The surveillance cameras and motion sensors had stopped responding one after another and had been destroyed.
Then, the blocked passageway exploded. The ivy exploded from the other side, calcifying and dancing as ashes. Dust covered the area and blocked GererGerz’s vision.
“Gehogeho. What’s that?”
Gerer brushes away the smoke with his hand and looks down the passageway.
“That’s a troublesome gimmick.”
A beautiful sound of a voice is heard, and a woman in golden magic armor steps out. It’s a magician-type magical armor, with jeweled armor and an opulent cloak.
Her voluptuous style is covered by a breastplate, which is visible even when she’s wearing a toga-like dress.
“If they’re setting up to buy time, they were useless. Too weak.”
A hoarse old man’s bored voice is heard, and a man who must be a warrior type, his entire body wrapped in magic armor similar to a silver knight’s armor, also appears.
“Hmmm, that’s how it is here. It’s a constant battle of small fry all the time. It’s a hassle, isn’t it?”
The last one to appear was a young girl with a colossally cute voice, but her tone was rough. She wore blue magic armor on her small frame. The armor reminded one of the shimmering seas.
On her back were translucent wings like those of a fairy. It’s a magical armor shaped like a bird of prey. Her upper body is a tight suit, and she has a lively look with pants look.
“Hey, who are you? What do you want in my botanical garden?”
The intense mana emitted from the magic armor the three of them wear. They’re no ordinary opponents. However, their faces are hidden by the helmets, and it is impossible to tell who they are.
The girl steps forward and raises one hand in a swoop.
“My name is Loki. I’m here to tour this botanical garden.”
“Loki?”
“Ah, there is a possibility that this botanical garden is an illegal facility. I’m sorry, but let me take a look.”
When she said that, a ferocious smile appeared on the girl’s lips.
