Leo wiped away non-existent cold sweat.
Previously on Galna Island, he actually thought that the combination of Hope, Erza, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Happy wasn't a threat at all...
Looking back now, Leo felt a chill run down his spine.
Was he really that brave back then...?
Fortunately, they talked things out later, otherwise he probably would have been beaten half to death.
Leo suddenly remembered something: among the Fairy Tail mages he met on Galna Island, his junior brother Gray seemed to only be able to defeat Lucy and that blue cat...
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
"Achoo!"
Gray rubbed his nose and immediately turned to look at the pink-haired boy beside him. "Natsu, were you talking about me behind my back just now?"
"Do I need to sneak around saying bad things about you?"
Natsu looked annoyed, thinking Gray was just looking for trouble, and retorted, "You don't want to fight, do you? No way, I don't want people saying I bullied you."
Upon hearing this, Gray's initial apology to Natsu vanished instantly. "Damn it, stop smug! I'll catch up to you soon!"
"Hehe, but I'm the one with the better skills right now~"
"You fiery bastard!"
Just as Gray and Natsu were about to fight, Erza and Bonbon arrived and quickly suppressed them with two punches.
Looking at the two of them squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, Erza said helplessly, "Don't you two know when to stop fighting? What if you disturb the people in the control room who are still figuring out how to shut down 'Nirvana'?"
Seeing Natsu being scolded and not daring to talk back, Wendy hugged Charlene tightly, "Erza is so strict..."
"Natsu, that idiot, needs to be dealt with strictly."
Xia Lulu quite approved of Erza's approach, but when she turned her head and saw Happy still trying to win her over with fish, the little white cat felt exhausted.
Just then, Ye Yi, Jura, and Lucy, who was in charge of calling for reinforcements from the Southern Cross Protoss, came out of the control room one after another. They had just been studying how to shut down 'Nirvana'.
And now they have reached a conclusion.
Overnight, a blueprint was unfurled, depicting the underground structure of the ancient city. At the point where the city connects to the six magical mechanical legs, there are six enormous magical crystals.
These six enormous magic crystals can generate large amounts of pure magic on their own.
Once these magic crystals are destroyed, the 'Nirvana' process, which has lost its magical support, will naturally cease.
"There's one more thing. These magic crystals must be destroyed at the same time, otherwise the other crystals will use magic to instantly repair the damaged ones."
Jura looked at everyone, "Each of you is responsible for destroying a magic crystal. If there are no problems..."
"Wait a minute."
Hope silently peeked out from behind Jura, her face beaming with surprise, and said, "What did I just hear? There's a magic crystal that can generate pure magic on its own?!"
Chapter 147 The Clever Uses of Costume-Changing Magic
Hope's voice rose a notch with excitement, echoing in the empty underground space.
Jura was a little taken aback by his sudden enthusiasm, thinking Hope was surprised by the power of the giant magic crystals, so she explained, "These ancient magic crystals can absorb magic particles from the atmosphere and convert them into a large amount of stable, pure magic. The magic provided by these six large magic crystals is enough to power the city and 'Nirvana' forever..."
Hope had no interest in Jura's long-winded explanation; all he knew were six precious treasures that could endlessly supply pure magic, self-generating power banks.
How could we destroy something so wonderful?
This item is destined for me.
Hope darted over to Night and snatched the blueprints from his hand.
After confirming the location of the marked magic crystal, his figure vanished from everyone's sight in a flash, leaving only a barely perceptible breeze and a sentence drifting in the air.
"I'll go and take care of those magic crystals. You all stay here and don't move."
A brief silence fell outside the control room.
Natsu scratched his head in confusion. "What...is Hope so excited about?"
Lucy crossed her arms. "That look in her eyes was similar to how Juvia looked when she saw Grey."
Gray, who was inexplicably used as a comparison: ......
Erza stood with one hand on her hip, watching the passage where Hope had disappeared. She understood that Hope had her eye on those six large magic crystals that could provide an unlimited supply of pure magic.
After the Tower of Paradise incident, Erza and Makarov learned that pure magic, which is harmful to mages, is a good thing for Hope.
However, that five-meter-tall spherical magic crystal is not easy to dismantle, otherwise Jura and Ichiya would not have come up with a plan to destroy it. Would that guy have accidentally collapsed the ancient city in the process?
"Although I don't understand what Mr. Hope is trying to do, a man's romance can sometimes be so pure! Man!"
He struck what he thought was a cool pose and changed the subject, looking at Wendy and Charlotte, "Your Cat Lodge is not far from the east side of the Vas Tree Sea, right?"
Wendy nodded. "That's right. It's because the Oración Seis is so close to our guild that our guild master agreed to let me join the guild alliance."
"Why are you asking this?" Xia Lulu frowned slightly.
Yi Ye sighed and said, "When I was operating the control room just now, I discovered that Brian had given 'Nirvana' an order to attack a village outside the eastern edge of the Vas Tree Sea."
"In the images in the control room, I saw the guild crest of your Demon Cat Inn in that village."
Upon hearing this, Wendy immediately panicked, but remembering that Oración Seis had been defeated and Nirvana had not yet taken action, she quickly calmed down.
Xia Lulu then pressed further, "Why is the Six Demons targeting our guild?"
"Perhaps they wanted to test the effects of 'Nirvana'."
Erza chimed in, "After all, the nearest human settlement to this sea of trees is your village, and there's also a magic guild there."
Everyone tacitly accepted this statement, after all, "Nirvana" has existed for more than 400 years, and the Six Demon Generals would definitely test it once they got their hands on it.
However, since Brian and Wu were defeated one after another, his connection with 'Nirvana' was broken, and he could no longer remotely control 'Nirvana', so the order to attack the Demon Cat's Abode was not continued.
"So, your Demon Cat Inn is actually a village?"
Lucy looked at Wendy with some curiosity. She knew this was a very remote place. Magic guilds usually choose to open in cities, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get enough commissions to support their families.
And there's another question that's been lingering in everyone's minds.
Before this operation to defeat Oración Seisu, even a Grand Mage of Jura's caliber had never heard of the guild "Demon Cat's Abode".
Wendy shrank back, somewhat embarrassed, and explained, "Actually, everyone in our village is a member of the Demon Cat's Lodge, and many of us are just ordinary people..."
"Hey!!"
A surprised exclamation came from Natsu's mouth. Although he had put all his intelligence points into combat, he knew that the Magic Council had to review the establishment of the Mage Guild.
Erza glanced silently at the timid blue-haired girl hiding behind Mystogan.
A guild whose most members are ordinary people, and mostly villagers, does not meet the conditions for establishing a mage guild. How could the council possibly agree to the establishment of "Demon Cat's Abode"?
But the fact is that "Cat's Abode" has not only been established, but it has also joined the campaign to defeat the Oración Seis as a legitimate guild...
There are only two possibilities in this situation.
Either the "Demon Cat's Abode" is backed by a powerful force.
Either the "Cat's Abode" has a super big shot comparable to the Ten Wizard Saints in charge, which is why the Magic Council is willing to give them the green light all the way.
Just as Erza was thinking.
The entire ancient city suddenly trembled violently.
The lights in the underground space flickered suddenly, and dust fell from the walls and ceiling.
Immediately afterwards, six almost perfectly synchronized explosions pierced through the thick rock layers and mechanical structures, reaching everyone's ears with crystal clarity.
The constant buzzing of the giant machinery and the heavy footsteps of its six massive legs slamming into the ground came to an abrupt halt at that moment.
The people outside the control room were breathing heavily.
He rushed back to the control room to check the situation. "The magic energy has been completely cut off, and 'Nirvana' has stopped operating!"
Jura's pupils contracted slightly as he abruptly looked at the blueprints lying on the ground.
Destroying six giant magic crystals scattered across different underground nodes in the city simultaneously requires exquisite coordination and precise synchronization, even for a member of the Ten Wizard Saints.
But how long was Hope gone?
They actually finished dealing with all the magic crystals in just a few minutes...
That's terrifying.
Before the crowd could recover from their shock, Hope returned through the passageway, his face glowing.
Seeing Hope's delighted expression, as if he'd struck gold, and then noticing his empty hands, Erza couldn't help but ask curiously, "How did you manage to get those six giant magic crystals?"
“Of course it was taken down,” Hope waved his hand.
Erza was speechless. "I asked where you put them?"
"Well..."
Hope smiled mysteriously, "This is all thanks to the 'Costume Change' magic."
The "Costume Change" spell can store the corresponding magical items into its own magical space.
Hope took advantage of this characteristic and used the pure magic power in the magic crystal to break the magic "Disguise Gunner" that she had previously collected from her companion.
He imagined the six giant magic crystals as ammunition and stored them in his magic space by exploiting a bug.
Chapter 148 The Second Transmigrator?
Hope activated the transformation magic circle in front of everyone, and a five-meter-tall circular magic crystal immediately appeared before them.
"It's...it really went in!!"
"And they even took it out!!"
"..."
Seeing Hope's actions, everyone exclaimed that it was outrageous.
Even Jura, who always had a serious face, showed a rare expression of surprise, his mouth wide open and his eyes almost popping out of their sockets in shock.
Erza, however, brightened up, thinking that Hope's clever trick made some sense.
