Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 196 He Withstood It (Please Subscribe!)
"Has the frequency of impacts decreased?"

After a period of anxiety, the group gradually noticed some changes. The frequency of the monsters attacking the "Wall of Ishgar" seemed to have decreased, at least compared to the beginning.

The appearance of this phenomenon undoubtedly proved that the beast tide was receding. After a bunch of magical beasts died, the remaining magical beasts finally stopped charging forward, and their hearts gradually calmed down.

"Mount... he actually held on!"

"Wrath of the North" Ralston looked shocked. Although he had always said he trusted Moen, his trust gradually faded after witnessing the force of the beast tide.

How could such a terrifying beast tide possibly be stopped?! Even eliminating a few more enemy troops would be a significant contribution from Moen.

As it turned out, Moen really did have some skills!

"The future is terrifying!"

Ralston kept sighing with emotion. He was truly impressed by Moen, as were his guildmates. They all admired and were very grateful to Moen, who had single-handedly reduced countless casualties!
Before witnessing that terrifying beast tide firsthand, some might have been unconvinced, thinking that if Moen could stop the beast tide, then they could too. But at this moment, no one would think that way anymore, unless they were arrogant idiots with something wrong with their heads.

"Wait a minute! What's that?!"

Just as everyone was starting to relax because the frequency of the impacts had decreased, a huge figure appeared in the distance.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound it made as it approached created a series of booming noises, knocking down trees and ravaging everything around it. Clearly, this was a very powerful magical beast.

"It's Dexterus!"

Experienced and knowledgeable mages quickly recognized the monster, their expressions filled with shock.

"Decopius, the crawling dragon."

Moen also saw the figure. Although it was nicknamed "the crawling dragon," the monster was actually more like a giant python.

With its long, thick body, it crawls slowly on the ground. It is only because of its great strength and habit of hiding treasure that it has been given the title of "crawling dragon".

In chivalric romances and adventure stories, dragons have a habit of hiding treasures. After all, after the "protagonist" defeats a dragon, there must be some reward, and this reward must be commensurate with the dragon's status, otherwise the battle would seem like a waste.

"But in reality, dragons don't have this habit, and the treasures that Dexpis hid were just some stones that they thought were pretty."

Moen muttered a complaint as he watched the giant python rapidly approach.

In reality, the rewards of defeating a "dragon"—such as princesses, beauties, treasures, and power—do not exist. What you might gain from defeating such a beast is only a body covered in wounds and some stones polished smooth by the beast.

"But you might actually be of some use to me."

Moen sized up the giant python, which was covered in scales. The stone it was looking for was probably for polishing its scales.

Decopis's scales are quite hard, making them excellent magical materials that can be used to create holy armor. In addition, the giant python also has a very tough tendon, all of which are things that Moen can use.

Moen opened his "All-Seeing Eye," staring at the giant python, analyzing its body structure, and observing which parts were usable.

This giant python, Dexterus, was clearly a bit smarter. It didn't directly crash into the "crystal wall," but it had seen all the magical beasts that had crashed into it and were bleeding profusely.

"Puff puff!!!"

So, Decopis first sprayed out a barrage of venom, attempting to corrode the wall with its terrifyingly corrosive liquid. "As expected of a legendary monster, truly terrifying!"

As the overwhelming spray of venom came down from the sky, everyone standing behind the "crystal wall" was startled and even instinctively began to dodge. The scene was indeed terrifying.

As a result, the venom hit the wall without lingering and was immediately reflected back, spraying onto Dexpis and landing on the monster's scales.

"Zizzizi!"

A sickeningly loud sound rang out.

Surprisingly, the venom that Decopis spat out burned itself, which is clearly illogical.

Since the scales on the body of this giant python should theoretically be able to resist its own venom, and the scales of this giant python can be ground into powder to make medicine, the detoxification effect is quite good.

"It's because of this crystal wall!"

Ralston immediately spoke up, saying that he had already noticed this.

The counterattack of this "crystal wall" can be even more powerful than the attack it launched. When someone's attack hits the "crystal wall," it can retaliate with even greater force, which is terrifying.

"As expected of the Wall of Ishgar!"

Everyone exclaimed that Moen's "Crystal Wall" had really made a name for itself this time. No one had been able to break through it yet, making it arguably the "strongest defense in Ishgar."

"Don't hurt yourself, you idiot."

Moen shook his head. He still needed these scales, and it wouldn't be good if they were all corroded. He had to stop the giant python.

"Buzz!"

Moen's figure flickered and appeared outside the "crystal wall".

This immediately caught the attention of Nadecipher. The giant python looked at Moen warily, sensing a dangerous aura from its biological instincts. The strange, golden creature exuded a magical aura so intense it seemed about to explode.

Of course, Moen's sudden appearance also attracted the attention of everyone inside the walls. Wearing the "Aries Gold Cloth", Moen was like a god descending from heaven, surrounded by starlight and magic, which made people unable to help but be attracted to him.

"Buzz!"

With a burst of magic, Moen stretched out his hand, and starlight seemed to weave a large net, directly covering the huge python monster.

The net tightened, trapping the giant python Dexterus tightly, binding its massive body into a ball.

"Crystal Net!"

This is a new ability that Moen has mastered, an advanced version of the "Crystal Wall" ability, which can even be described as two completely different abilities.

The "Crystal Wall" is an incredibly hard wall, while the "Crystal Net" is a water-like binding. Although it is called a "net," it is actually completely attached to the body, like a water prison, tightly binding the target.

Bound by the "crystal net," the enormous python was completely immobilized, as if it had been frozen in place.
