My two-dimensional resident

The eerily silent hall was finally broken by Bob's soft yet deep voice.

He pressed his little finger, painted with red nail polish, against his lower lip, his sparkling eyes gleaming strangely as he looked at Makarov.

At a meeting a few months ago, Makarov had boasted to his old friends about a very talented young girl named Erza Scarlett who had joined his guild.

Bob remembered Makarov holding a beer mug, confidently declaring that his guild had a worthy successor. Little did he know that just six months later, he would let such a promising young girl disappear.

This president is really unreliable.

"Bob, Erza's disappearance is indeed partly my fault. I won't shirk that responsibility. All members of Fairy Tail have already begun searching for Erza and the others."

But the sea area is just too vast...

I, Makarov Draea, am here to ask for your help, to help Erza's brother, to find Erza and the others who went missing at sea.

Makarov jumped off his chair, then took a few steps back. Under everyone's gaze, he bowed deeply to his old colleagues and friends, pleading earnestly and sincerely.

Bob's words just now seemed to be a reprimand, but they were actually meant to break the eerie, calm atmosphere.

"So you're one of your subordinates, you wicked old man. We, the Snake Princess Scales, will send members to help you find that little girl."

An elderly woman with squinting eyes and a huge bun spoke up. She was Oba Barbasoma, the guild leader of the Snake Scale Guild. Although she was not as old as Makarov, she was full of energy and did not look like a woman in her seventies at all.

Although she is not a member of the Ten Wizard Saints, her strength is unfathomable. Her guild member, "Rock Iron" Jura Regis, is the youngest member of the Ten Wizard Saints on the continent of Ishgar.

"We, the Saber-toothed Tigers, will also send people..."

"You old codger, we are the Mermaid's Heel Guild..."

After the first guild leader agreed to help Makarov find Erza, several other guild leaders who were on good terms with Makarov also began to offer their guilds assistance in finding Erza.

Seeing that someone had taken the lead in responding, the other guild leaders also expressed their willingness to contribute manpower and effort to search for Erza and the others on the high seas.

These guild leaders are all officially certified guilds by the Magic Council, yet Lin Tian just killed one of them.

No matter how high the reward he offered, these guild leaders were all very shrewd, and none of them were willing to offend the Magic Council for such benefits.

However, if it was Fairy Tail Makarov who requested their help, then it would be reasonable for his colleagues and friends to search for his missing guild members.

Helping Makarov find Erza and the others is equivalent to agreeing to Lin Tian's request. Therefore, once Erza is found, Lin Tian will have to keep his promise and pay them a reward.

This magical apple is a wondrous fruit that even powerful individuals like them are tempted by.

When Lin Tian killed Joseph, these cunning guild leaders had already seen a powerful surge of magic erupt from his body after he ate the apple.

With their experience, they had already guessed that this apple could quickly replenish the magic power that mages consumed in battle.

Burning Words

This magical apple might not be of much use to these guild leaders. But they're not alone; each of their guilds has many mages within them.

Bringing an apple with them while they perform a task can improve their task completion rate.

So after hearing about Lin Tian's reward, they never thought of refusing; instead, they hesitated and waited for the first person to stand up.

Now, with a good reason and sufficient compensation, no one would refuse.

Seeing that all the guild leaders of the magicians present had agreed to help find Erza and the others, Lin Tian nodded slightly to Bob to express his gratitude.

If he hadn't pointed out Erza's connection to the Fairy Tail guild, allowing Makarov to ask for help and giving everyone a suitable reason to assist him...

So next, Lin Tian will likely use force to coerce these people, but that's not the situation Lin Tian wants to see.

Even if members of the Magic Council criticize these guilds for helping someone who killed a Wizard of Ten, the guild leaders will have a reason like, "I was just helping Makarov."

"Thank you, guild leaders present. To show my sincerity, I'll give you three more cherries. While cherries can't instantly replenish your mana like apples, the first spell you cast after eating one will be amplified by 10%."

The apple Lin Tian had given them earlier was simply to thank them for not stopping him from killing Joseph. The cherries he was presenting now were to show his sincerity.

Once these association presidents discovered the benefits of apples and cherries, they would want to get more apples and cherries, regardless of their motives.

Then, they will be even more dedicated to finding Erza and the other two. That's the result Lin Tian wanted.

“Lin Tian, ​​the Magic Council can’t possibly ignore the fact that you killed Joseph. Council member Yajima is a good friend of mine; let me take you to talk to him.”

After all the guild leaders put away the cherries in front of them, Guild Leader Makarov, who had been silent all along, spoke up. He was still worried that Lin Tian's killing of Joseph would make the Magic Council hostile towards him.

"The Magic Council, huh? Perfect, I was just thinking of getting the council's intelligence department—no, everyone—to help me find Erza and the others. Oh, and the other powers on the continent of Ishgar. Like the various kingdoms, and the Ten Wizard Saints."

"Guild Masters, whose thought form is in the Council? Please tell the current Guild Master, Crawford Him, to gather all the Ten Wizard Saints still on the continent of Ishgar, and also tell him that I'm going to see him tomorrow."

Thought Form is a type of clone magic, similar to the clone technique in the Naruto world. However, Thought Form is much more advanced than the clone technique.

Before coming to the Fairy Tail world, Lin Tian only had a vague memory of the Magic Council, the organization that manages all mage guilds on the continent of Ishgar.

However, after capturing Ultear, he had already obtained information on all the current members of the Council. At this point in time, Gerald's mental form and Ultear had not yet infiltrated the Council as members.

Besides the chairman, the Magic Council only had five members, and their strength was not formidable, at most S-class mages. Unlike the later Magic Council, which experienced two disasters and was then led by the Ten Wizard Saints as chairman and members.

However, these presidents and council members are not powerful enough now, but their council has a large number of mages.

These mages are exactly what Lin Tian wants; he needs more people to help him find Erza's whereabouts.

Chapter 297 Want to kill me to silence me?

Everyone in the hall felt that Lin Tian's words were too domineering, but since they had already received benefits from Lin Tian, ​​they did not show much dissatisfaction with his words.

One of the president's mental constructs happened to be at the Magic Council, so he volunteered to contact a councilor on duty.

When a member of the Magic Council heard someone asking for their help in finding someone, their first reaction was to refuse. In their minds, the Magic Council was the largest organization on the continent of Ishgar.

There are so many things to do every day, how can I have time to help someone with no reputation mobilize manpower to find their missing sister?

But when the president's mental entity told him that the person seeking the Magic Council's help had just instantly killed one of the Ten Wizard Saints, and even a week earlier had defeated the Devil's Heart.

Upon learning that Lin Tian had actually killed Joseph, the leader of the Ghost Dominator under their organization, the councilor was immediately enraged and wanted to order the leader to let him lead all the leaders to capture Lin Tian.

But when he heard that Lin Tian had actually defeated the mysterious Demon's Heart Guild, he fell silent again.

Seeing that the councilor was starting to hesitate, Si Nianti told him about the conditions Lin Tian had offered, and also indicated that the council presidents had agreed to help Lin Tian find Erza and the others.

The councilor was very unhappy with these guild leaders who were cooperating with someone who killed one of the Ten Wizard Saints, but the other party's reason was not unreasonable: to help the Fairy Tail guild leader find missing members.

In addition, he was somewhat wary of Lin Tian's strength, so he agreed to convene a council meeting tomorrow to welcome Lin Tian's arrival.

......

The next day, when Lin Tian brought Bardock and Ultear to the Magic Council headquarters, the high walls of the hall were already filled with people.

Lin Tian looked closely and saw that only Chairman Makarov and two old men on his left and right were looking at him with gentle expressions.

He guessed that the two men were Makarov's old friend Yajima and Warold Shinken, one of the founders of Fairy Tail.

"You are Lin Tian, ​​the mage from beyond the continent who killed Joseph? Do you know your crime?!"

Crawford Himm, the president of the Magic Council, saw Lin Tian and his companions enter. His expression changed, and he spoke angrily.

Just yesterday, he heard from Michael, the third seat of the council, that Joseph, one of the Ten Saints, had been murdered and that the murderer wanted to see them.

He was very dissatisfied, but upon learning that Lin Tian was extremely powerful, he could only suppress his anger and then notify all the Ten Holy Mages to attend the council.

His real purpose was not to cooperate with Lin Tian, ​​but to have all the Ten Holy Mages capture him and then put him on trial.

Joseph, the leader of Phantom Lord, was a member of the Ten Wizard Saints and a long-time partner of Phantom Lord, yet he was killed just like that.

Lin Tian's actions cost him a powerful supporter who wanted him to run for the next chairmanship. His ambitions were thwarted; how could he possibly set aside his hatred and cooperate with Lin Tian?

Therefore, we must capture Lin Tian today to vent his anger.

"Are you Guild Master Him? Joseph, as the guild master of a guild under the Magic Council, is actually leading your guild to do things like a dark guild. I only killed a dark mage; I did nothing wrong."

"And you, as the president of the Magic Council of Ishgar, are the ones who deserve the most punishment for collaborating with Joseph, a dark mage."

As he spoke, Lin Tian gestured for Ultear to step forward and show everyone the evidence of Crawford Him's illegal activities with Joseph and his collaboration with the Dark Guild.

Last night, he realized that the president of the Magic Council would never agree to help him, and that the meeting the next day would definitely be a trap.

He then asked Ultear, a member of the Heart of the Demons, if there was any evidence of Crawford Him's crimes.

Upon hearing Lin Tian's question, Ultear nodded repeatedly. The most powerful guild in the dark guilds, Heart of the Demon, cooperated with many forces on the continent, including the president of the Magic Council and the president of the Ghost Dominator.

When Lin Tian saw through Ultear's magic sphere that Crawford Him and Joseph were colluding with the Dark Guild to harm members of other legitimate guilds, he conceived a plan to bring down Crawford Him.

Under the watchful eyes of many, Ultear slowly walked to the center of the hall. She calmly took out a crystal ball and displayed the entire scene of Crawford Him's transaction with the Dark Guild to the councilors and the Ten Wizard Saints.

"Fake! It's all fake! She's a member of the Devil's Heart. Those images are all fabricated!"

After seeing the scene of himself and Joseph trading with the Dark Guild, Crawford Him shouted nervously, saying that the scene in the crystal ball was fake and not real.

"Guards! Arrest them immediately!"

"Wait! President Him, there's too much evidence; it's impossible to fabricate it in a short time. Since someone has accused you of colluding with the Dark Guild, we must investigate... After all, you are the president of the Magic Council. If this matter isn't thoroughly investigated, it will damage the Council's reputation."

Just as Chairman Him was about to order the guards waiting outside to come in and arrest Lin Tian and the others, a middle-aged nobleman wearing a black tailcoat and sporting a small mustache stood up. He elegantly raised a wine glass and slowly stopped Chairman Him from giving the order.

The man ranked second among the Ten Wizard Saints of Ishgar, also known as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar.

Although he was not a member of the Magic Council, his reputation compelled the Magic Council to respect him.

Upon hearing his words, Councilor Yajima gestured for the guards who had already entered to retreat. The guards had come in to arrest people on the chairman's orders.

But now, Lord Hyberion, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar, and Councilor Ajma are preventing them from making a move. The group stood there looking at each other, unsure of what to do.

"Is it really necessary to go through all that trouble? With us here, we can just tie them up and interrogate them thoroughly. The truth will come out. Since you won't do it, then leave it to me! Haha~"

The First Clan

Just as the guards were looking at Lin Tian and his group with their aura of keeping strangers at bay, not knowing what to do...

A man with orange hair, two wing-like buns on either side of his head, and a horizontal scar in the center of his face laughed loudly and charged towards Lin Tian and the others, accompanied by a disc of twelve swords on his back.

"Serena, Bardock is yours!"

Seeing that Serena, the number one ranked Wizard of the Ten Wizard Saints on the continent of Ishgar and the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings, was about to capture them at the slightest provocation, Lin Tian ordered Bardock to fight.

Serena is a Dragon Slayer Mage. Because eight Dragon Slayer Crystals reside within him, he possesses eight different Dragon Slayer Magic spells and has extremely strong physical abilities. Therefore, Lin Tian plans to use him as a practice target for Bardock.

Chapter 298 Battle with the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar!

Although he had already realized that Serena was stronger than Bardock, Saiyans had to go through life-or-death trials to become stronger.

Saiyans become stronger only by reviving from a near-death experience.

In the Dragon Ball world, Goku, also known as Kakarot, always eats Senzu Beans after being defeated and on the verge of death, or is resurrected after dying, before his strength increases dramatically.
