Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 194 The Shock of the Zodiac Spirits (Please Subscribe!)
To fully deploy a long defensive line, a large number of people would naturally be needed, but fortunately, there are quite a few mages gathered here.

"Then, we will deploy defenses by guild, with each guild responsible for a section of the defense line."

Since everyone came as a guild, it's not good to split up the manpower. It's best to deploy defenses as a guild, which also makes it easier for the mages within the guilds to cooperate.

The stronger guilds are responsible for a wider area, while smaller, weaker guilds can share the responsibility for defending a section of the defensive line.

In arranging the defenses, Ogre tried his best to be fair so as not to cause dissatisfaction among the mage guilds that came to provide support.

There's really nothing to complain about, since no one can say for sure what kind of impact their guild's defenses will be on; it's completely unknown and depends entirely on luck.

"The defense line that our guild is responsible for is quite long."

Moen glanced at the defense zone assigned to Fairy Tail, which was definitely a first-tier length.

There's no way around it; even within the entire continent of Ishgar, Fairy Tail is one of the top mage guilds.

“We’re definitely fine. We might even be able to spare some manpower to help both guilds, since they’re all guilds from our Kingdom of Fiore.”

Makarov was very confident, and even paid attention to the guilds on both sides of the defense line that Fairy Tail was responsible for. They were all acquaintances, two small guilds from the Kingdom of Fiore.

For such an important event, whether it's a large guild or a small guild, they will definitely send people to contribute their share.

Fairy Tail is a large organization, and Makarov is very responsible, which is definitely a good thing for the two smaller guilds nearby. At least if they can help, Makarov certainly won't stand idly by.

"These monsters will have to get past me first."

Moen smiled; he was quite confident in his "crystal wall."

"I hope you can handle this crisis on your own."

Makarov was serious. If Moen could really do it, that would be the best outcome. Everyone would be happy to have made a wasted trip, as it would be better than fighting a massive war against the Warcraft frenzy.

Therefore, Yajima's worries were quite unnecessary.

After seeing the frozen corpses, everyone knew that the beast tide had occurred. If it didn't happen again, no one would blame him for making a wasted trip. On the contrary, they would be happy to have made the trip, treating it as a vacation.

"I, for one, believe in Mr. Moen's Wall of Ishgard!"

Ralston leaned over and smiled to express his support. This burly man and Moen were kind of friends after a fight. Moen didn't even have to make a move before Ralston was completely defeated by the "Crystal Wall".

"I hope I won't let you down."

Moen smiled and gave Ralston a fist bump; he and the straightforward "Wrath of the North" got along quite well.

Moen likes straightforward guys who don't have any guile, including the "Four-Headed Hound" group of guys like Pacas. There's not much pressure being friends with these kinds of people; they're all honest and say what they mean.

"Then, everyone hurry up and set up your defenses in your respective areas."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Oger, who was chairing the meeting, spoke up. His face was serious, and he was already prepared for a major battle.

However, after hearing his words, the various guild leaders did not leave, but instead gathered around Moen, just like Russell.

"Mr. Moen, how do you think we should deploy our defenses in this area? How severe was the impact of the last beast tide on our side?"

A guild leader asked Moen with a worried expression how to set up defenses and inquired about the situation in their defense zone during the last beast tide.

"Mr. Moen! Is there anything we can do to help your Wall of Ishgar?"

Some guild leaders wanted to contribute to the maintenance of the "Crystal Wall," clearly hoping that Moen's "Wall of Ishgar" could continue to stop the monster horde. This was much better than directly facing the monsters, as fighting them directly would result in death!
"Please don't hesitate to ask if there's anything we can do for you!"

The guild leader's words received a lot of support, and everyone expressed their willingness to do their part to maintain the "Wall of Ishgar".

Clearly, given another option, no one wants to face the Warcraft frenzy head-on; everyone wants to stand behind the Crystal Wall.

"Although I would like to gather everyone's strength for my own use, unfortunately, it seems there is no way to do so. I can only thank everyone for their kindness."

Moen smiled and shook his head. He wasn't Ultraman Tiga; he couldn't really benefit from everyone's "light."

Aside from Dragon Slayers who can absorb and utilize other people's magic, there's really no other way for mages to borrow it. At least, Moen doesn't know of any way to borrow it; perhaps there's magic with a similar function.

"."

Moen's words disappointed the crowd surrounding him. If they could pool their strength to maintain the "Wall of Ishgar," the chances of stopping the monster horde would be greatly increased, at least more so than if Moen did it alone.

With Ogg's constant emphasis, everyone felt that the monster frenzy that followed might be even more terrifying. Moen's "Crystal Wall" might be able to stop the first attack, but it might not be able to stop the second or third. That's why they were anxious.

"Everyone, go back and set up defenses quickly! We must rely on the collective strength to stop the monster horde! Don't think about relying on just one person!"

Ogg stepped forward and urged the somewhat disappointed group to hurry back to set up defenses. His pessimism about Moen's "Crystal Wall" was palpable.

"This guy"

Looking at Ogg's serious face, Moen shook his head speechlessly.

Ogre, that guy, looks at the people of "Fairy Tail" with a bit of prejudice. Although he has been trying his best to be fair and just, it is obviously difficult to change their long-held beliefs.

In Og's eyes, "Fairy Tail" was synonymous with unreliability, and he would never place his hopes on anyone from "Fairy Tail".

"Ignore him, just focus on doing your own thing."

Makarov said that he didn't care what Og thought of them; it wouldn't affect them or change them. Fairy Tail wouldn't change because of Og.

"The more he acts like this, the more I want to slap him in the face. If he looks down on my Crystal Wall, then he really has a problem with his thinking."

Moen shook his head. Ogg's approach wasn't exactly wrong; he should have let everyone prepare. However, Ogg's attitude made him, the person involved, uncomfortable.

Even if you don't believe him, shouldn't you at least encourage him? Shouldn't you at least motivate him to try harder and do everything in his power to stop it?
Like the other guild leaders, they all wished that Moen could hold the line a little longer, and some even wanted Moen to create more "crystal walls" in front of their defenses.

This is the right attitude. After all, the more effort Moen puts in, the more monsters the "Crystal Wall" can eliminate, and the easier things will be for them.

"Don't worry about him. We didn't come here because of him. If you can hold on, everyone will be grateful to you."

Makarov imagined that outcome and felt a sense of exhilaration.

If Moen can truly withstand the beast tide of the Nord Forest on his own, then the title of "Wall of Ishgar" will surely fall upon Moen, and all the mages who came to participate in the battle will also have to thank Moen.

“Just wait and see.” Moen said confidently. Although the intensity of the beast tide might indeed be higher than before, his connection with “Aries” had become deeper, and his mastery of the “Aries Gold Cloth” had also deepened.

The current Moen is completely different from the one who faced the beast tide last time. They will witness the true power of "Aries"!

After the meeting ended, everyone went their separate ways to prepare, but the beast tide arrived even faster than anyone had imagined.

On the night everyone was setting up their defenses, strange noises occurred in the Nord Forest, waking everyone up with the rumbling and roaring sounds from the forest, which made everyone tense.

It can only be said that this momentum was far more terrifying than they had imagined.

The "Crystal Wall" stood there, blocking enemy attacks but not sound or visuals, so the allied forces could clearly hear everything on the other side of the wall.

"coming!"

In the "Four-Headed Hounds'" defensive zone, Pakas was very excited. They were all very eager to fight and showed no fear whatsoever.

"No one is allowed to back down!"

Goldman stood beside them and shouted loudly, "Their 'Four-Headed Hound's' defensive zone isn't small, but he'll lead his men to hold it."

On the other side, Bobu was also on high alert at the "Azure Pegasus" camp. Most of their guild's main forces had arrived, led by Yi Ye, and they were all looking serious and ready for battle.

The various guilds did not set up camp directly next to the "Crystal Wall," but rather kept some distance between them. After all, they also needed some buffer space, so that the monsters wouldn't just rush into their faces if the wall collapsed.

"boom!"

One after another, orbs of light were shot into the sky, illuminating the dark night and making everyone's vision clear. It was Makarov's magic. The guild master of Fairy Tail was also very skilled in light magic, which came in very handy at this moment.

"It's here! The Warcraft frenzy!"

With the view clearer, the situation on the other side of the wall became much clearer. Many people could already see the figures of the charging monsters, densely packed and endless, which shocked them greatly. Some people couldn't help but retreat.

We can't be too harsh on them. Anyone who can remain still in the face of such a scene is quite remarkable. The overwhelming sense of oppression brought by that endless tide of monsters is simply overwhelming.

"what happens?!"

Behind the Allied lines, a group of children were sneaking closer to the lines when they heard the unusual noises.

"That sounds like the roar of a monster! Has the battle already started?!"

Gray listened very carefully. He could hear the roars of the magical beasts, and the earth seemed to be shaking, which clearly indicated that there were a great many magical beasts. Sure enough, a magical beast riot had occurred!

"Then what are we waiting for?! Let's go over there right away!"

Natsu immediately jumped up and charged forward, heading towards the defensive line built by the Allied Mage Forces.

"Keep up!"

Gray didn't hesitate and immediately followed Natsu's footsteps. At the same time, he called out to the other children, making sure no one fell behind. Cana and Juvia naturally followed closely, their faces showing anxiety, but no one showed any fear.

"Boom!!!"

Before Natsu, Gray, and the others could even reach the vicinity of the defensive line, a violent surge of magical energy suddenly spread out in all directions.

Then, nebulae swirled in the sky, and the star charts of several constellations appeared clearly in the night sky, radiating light, with Aries, the first of the twelve zodiac signs, being the most conspicuous.

Starlight fell, and there was no need for Makarov's magic to illuminate the sky; the sheer amount of starlight was enough to brighten the sky and allow people to see clearly at night.

"Buzz!"

Under the pale blue starlight, the originally invisible "crystal wall" began to emit starlight, making the entire wall clear, like an insurmountable wall of starlight standing there, giving people a strong sense of security.

"It's Moeng's magic!"

Juvia immediately shouted, recognizing him instantly. Of course, the children all recognized him too. Only their "King of the Kids," Moen, could use that magic that could summon the stars in the sky. They were very familiar with it.

"So powerful! No wonder he's Master!"

Emerald couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. She was the one who could feel the power of the countless stars echoing in the sky. She could clearly sense that Master Moen's strength had become even greater!
As for Moen's other apprentice, Lucy, she wasn't brought along because Lucy had only recently joined Fairy Tail and hadn't even officially started learning magic from Moen yet. No matter how much they messed around, they wouldn't bring Lucy, who was still a complete newbie.

Of course, what the children didn't know was that Lucy had actually secretly followed them.

Lucy, who possesses a number of Celestial Spirit Keys, is capable of protecting herself. Although limited by her own magical power, even the Celestial Spirits of the Zodiac are not very strong in her hands now, she can still easily deal with ordinary mages.

Lucy, who arrived right behind Natsu, Gray, and their group, also saw the strange phenomenon in the sky.

"What's this?!"

Aquarius, the celestial spirit, is dressed in revealing clothing, has a stunning figure, a pure and beautiful appearance, long blue hair, and a mermaid tail. At this moment, she is staring wide-eyed at the star map in the sky. The stars of those constellations are continuously showering magical light, as if they are all shining for one person.

"That's Moeng's magic!"

Lucy said happily, which surprised Aquarius.

"Is it the master you always talk about?"

Aquarius asked, clearly aware of the situation. Her relationship with Lucy was very special; they were extremely close. Lucy had spent her most difficult and disheartening days with Aquarius's support, and Lucy relied heavily on her.

"Yes! It's my master! He might be fighting! Aquarius, let's go help him!"

Lucy nodded, giving a definite answer, and then ran forward anxiously, hoping to help.

"."

Aquarius was speechless. What help could they possibly offer? Just escorting Lucy here had already taken a huge toll on them; they had no magic left to fight. Lucy, too, was so concerned that she didn't even notice that her magic was almost depleted.

"What kind of magic does this Moen use? How can he even know the constellations of the zodiac?"

Aquia's expression was complicated, and she was completely puzzled. She was greatly shocked and felt as if she had witnessed a scene that overturned her worldview. The stars in the sky were responding to a person's call, which was something that even they, the star spirits, could not do!

In fact, other Celestials were just as shocked as Aquarius. In the "Blue Pegasus" defense zone, Aries Celestial Aries stared wide-eyed. The usually timid Aries even ignored Karen Lilika's orders and just stared blankly at the Aries constellation in the sky, her eyes filled with disbelief.
