My two-dimensional resident

At this moment, after unleashing the Holy Dragon's Roar, Eileen's body could no longer hold on; her vision went black, and her neck tilted to the side. The entire dragon body began to fall to the ground.

Lin Tian dared not let his guard down and continued to use the Flame-Flame Fruit's ignition ability to ignite the magic and dragon power that were resisting his flame erosion from within Erin's body.

boom!

The dragon's body, over a hundred meters long, crashed to the ground, creating a deep crater from the violent impact. Lin Tian sensed that Eileen was no longer resisting, and the flames enveloping her began to gather in front of her dragon head, reforming Lin Tian's human form.

He glanced at the longan, now dull and lifeless, and sighed softly. If he hadn't managed to get close enough to Irene to win this battle so easily, he wouldn't have won so easily. It was all thanks to the Flame-Flame Fruit's powerful and abnormal ignition ability, and the apples that constantly replenished his energy.

To prevent Eileen from waking up at any moment, he took out the wooden cage, intending to imprison her inside. But just as he raised his hand to touch Eileen's dragon head...

His expression suddenly changed, and he quickly turned to look at the open space to his left. At that moment, a black-haired youth walked towards him expressionlessly. The youth wore a black robe with a long white cloth tied around it, and his steps were slow. But Lin Tian could feel an unprecedented pressure from him.

"Jereff Dragneel!"

Having confirmed that the visitor was indeed Zeref, the strongest mage he was searching for, Lin Tian put away the wooden prison, deciding against capturing Irene. The main character had arrived; the others were no longer of any use.

"I don't know how you know my name. But you harmed my men, so die."

Black magic erupted from Zeref's body, spreading towards Lin Tian. The ominous magic caused the green grass and trees around Zeref to wither, and even the stones began to crack and crumble.

Seeing this, Lin Tian quickly activated the Flame-Flame Fruit's power, sending surging flames towards the unsettling black magic.

Red and black divide the world in two.

The flames, imbued with igniting magic, devoured the black magic, but a higher-level energy within the black magic was not to be outdone, forcefully extinguishing the flames, resulting in a stalemate.

When Jelf saw that Lin Tian could actually resist his corrupting magic, a look of doubt appeared in his lifeless eyes. He snorted and increased the output of black magic.

In an instant, the black magic power engulfed Lin Tian's flames. Seeing that the black magic power had reached him, Lin Tian immediately ate an apple and a cherry, and once again activated the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit to repel the black magic power.

“Zeref, I can give you the fairy heart! If you stop now, I will release your subordinates and even heal their injuries.”

Lin Tian was perfectly clear about his purpose: he wanted to confirm with Zeref whether the disappearance of Kikyo and the others was caused by Zeref, rather than simply engaging in a direct confrontation with Zeref.

Fairy Heart is a hidden great magic that surpasses the three super magics of "Fairy Law," "Fairy Radiance," and "Fairy Orb." It is also known as Meteor Radiance. Simply put, Fairy Heart is a magic that permanently provides magical energy, essentially an infinite magic battery.

It is another kind of magic created by Precht, the second guild master of Fairy Tail, who is now Hades, the guild master of "Goblin Heart," after Fairy Tail founder Mavis fell into a deep sleep due to a curse. Precht used his resurrection magic to fuse with the immortality curse on Mavis.

Zeref learned about the Fairy Heart when he met Precht many years ago. He wanted to merge with the Fairy Heart and use permanent magic to become stronger and break the immortality curse imposed on him by the god Ankhseram.

However, because the Magic Council of Ishgar possessed elven magical weapons capable of destroying the entire continent, Zeref never went to Fairy Tail to steal the Fairy Heart.

"I can win the fairy's heart even without you."

Upon hearing the word "fairy heart," Zeref's eyes turned cold. The fairy heart was not only eternal magic, but also the body of the lover he had first felt affection for.

“But you won’t sit down and have a proper talk with me. I will bring my companions and fight you to the end, so that you will never get the fairy’s heart.”

Zeref's black magic was too powerful. Lin Tian's newly replenished energy was completely depleted. After swallowing another apple, he threatened Zeref.

Lin Tian's spatial backpack also contained over 30 sets of apples, 20 apples per set, totaling over 600 apples, given to him by Artoria and the others. He believed that as long as he wasn't instantly killed by Zeref, he could definitely wear down his opponent.

At this moment, Artoria and the others had finished their battle with Eugast. The group, carrying the Shield of the Holy Guard that they had captured earlier, came behind Lin Tian and looked at Zeref with wary expressions.

Seeing that Ace, who had been teleported away by Eileen, was not there, and that all his other companions had come to his side, Lin Tian felt more confident.

“Zeref, the reason I came to you is to ask if you have seen these three people. Artoria projects images of Kikyo and the others.”

As for magic, God closed that window for Lin Tian, ​​leaving his magical talent utterly pathetic. So far, aside from contract magic, Lin Tian hasn't learned any other magic, let alone the incredibly powerful projection magic.

Upon hearing this, Artoria waved her arm, and the portraits of Kikyo and the other two were projected onto Zeref's face.

Chapter 311 The Distant Ideal Land

Jelf looked at the three portraits in the sky and shook his head. Then he said to Lin Tian.

“I have never seen these three before. I don’t care about your purpose, but the energy emanating from you all intrigues me. I think if I obtained your power, I might not need the fairy heart anymore.”

"this..."

Lin Tian frowned upon hearing this. He knew that Zeref was the founder of dark magic in this world, but he was not a cunning or treacherous person, and with his strength, he would never stoop to lying to them.

Could it be that Kikyo and the others' disappearance really has absolutely nothing to do with Zeref?

Lin Tian glanced at Artoria and Neji Hyuga beside him. He saw Artoria nod at him, indicating that no matter what decision he made, she would always stand behind him.

Currently, the strongest member of Lin Tian's group is Artoria. Next is Lin Tian, ​​who has already become stronger, and Bardock, who is currently unconscious. However, Lin Tian is not confident he can defeat Zeref, the strongest mage in the world.

No, you can't defeat him at all. He has the immortal curse of the unknown god Ankhseram.

Thinking of this, Lin Tian said to Jelf in a deep voice.

"I know you are the most powerful mage in this world because you are cursed with immortality by the god Ankhseram, which makes you invincible. But defeating us won't be so easy."

You said you had never met the three of them. Based on my understanding of your life, I am willing to believe that you are telling the truth.

Let's make a deal. I can release your men and even heal their wounds. But you have to help me find the Black Dragon Acnologia.

If you are willing to help me subdue Acnologia, I can help you remove the curse of immortality from your body and resurrect Mavis.

You should be able to see that our powers are out of place in this world. That's right, we are not from this world; we come from other worlds. What you cannot do in this world, I can take you to other worlds to fulfill your wishes.”

War always serves politics.

The reason Lin Tian and his group fought against the Shield of the Holy Guard was because they refused to cooperate, so Lin Tian had no choice but to capture them and lure out Zeref.

Now that Zeref has appeared and stated that he has not seen Kikyo and the others, Lin Tian no longer needs to fight Zeref.

Next, he needs to find another suspect—the black dragon Acnologia. But the only person who can find Acnologia is Zeref, whom he considers his only enemy.

Rather than fighting Zeref and forcing him to find the Black Dragon, Lin Tian preferred to use conditions that Zeref couldn't refuse to get him to cooperate.

"Is this considered cooperation? I never cooperate with people who die in front of me. Since you say you know so much about my life, then you must have a way to kill me."

Come on! Let me see where you get the courage to say those words. Death Hunt!

After hearing Lin Tian's offer to make a deal with him—to find the black dragon Acnologia—Zeref shook his head. Then, a powerful black aura erupted from his body, attacking Lin Tian and the others.

He had lived in this world for over four hundred years, and most of the people he had come into contact with were already dead. Facing Lin Tian from another world, he didn't feel that Lin Tian was qualified to discuss cooperation with him.

If you want to cooperate, then don't let him kill you!

"Flame-Flame Fruit - Ignite MAX!"

"Excalibur!"

"Eight Trigrams - Four Heavenly Palms!"

"The Eighty-One Binding Path: Severing Emptiness!"

Apart from Bardak, who was still unconscious, Lin Tian and the others saw the black wave spreading towards them and launched their most powerful attacks at the same time.

The magic within the black fluctuations coalesced, wielding the scythe of death to reap every life it encountered. The world corrupted by it fell silent, devoid of any sign of life.

The moment Hyuga Neji's "Four Heavenly Palms" came into contact with the black wave, the "Four Heavenly Palms," which contained powerful chakra energy, was mercilessly swallowed up.

Asito's "Binding Spell No. 81: Sky-Slaying" was like a fragile piece of glass, lasting only a second under the impact of the black wave before shattering into countless pieces of ice and scattering in all directions.

Artoria's EX Excalibur did manage to break through the Black Wave and reach Zeref, but that was all; it didn't go any further. With Zeref's immense magical power, the death energy within the Black Wave gradually devoured Artoria's EX Excalibur.

The three's counterattack was easily neutralized by the powerful Zeref in just a few seconds. Now, only Lin Tian's flames stubbornly resisted the invasion of the black waves that filled the sky.

Seeing this, Neji Hyuga and Asido launched their most powerful attacks again, but as before, their attacks were instantly swallowed up when they collided with the approaching black waves.

Zeref used only one move, yet it instantly put Lin Tian and his companions in a difficult situation. Seeing this, Lin Tian quickly took out an apple to replenish his strength. His Flame-Flame Fruit ability could indeed withstand the black energy released by Zeref.

But it only ignites the magic within, and cannot stop the deathly aura that can wither life in an instant.

He held out for another six seconds, but his energy was already ninety percent depleted. Left with no other option, Lin Tian took out another apple.

Meanwhile, Artoria glanced at her companions, then at Lin Tian's exhausted face. She had already made her decision.

"Lin Tian, ​​leave the rest to me. You take the rest and get out of here first!"

After saying that, Artoria took out an apple to replenish the magic power she had lost when releasing EX Curry Stick, and then her whole body burst out with a strong golden light.

"Avalon, a remote and idyllic paradise, far removed from everything!"

With a soft cry from Artoria, countless blue and gold scabbard components flew out from her body, landing in front of the group and forming a huge, magnificent golden scabbard standing on the ground.

The gleaming golden scabbard was adorned with striking blue enamel decorations. The long-lost fairy script in the center emanated a divine power that enhanced the scabbard itself. Golden ripples emanated from the scabbard, enveloping Lin Tian and the others and blocking Zeref's black energy from the outside.

"The Distant Ideal Land," an EX-rank barrier Noble Phantasm, not only heals the holder's injuries and prevents aging, but if its true name is released, it disintegrates into hundreds of pieces, placing the holder in a fairy realm, free from physical, magical, and parallel world interference. It is the strongest protective Noble Phantasm in the Type-Moon universe, an absolute defense that even the magic of the Type-Moon universe cannot touch.

After the Fourth Holy Grail War ended with Lin Tian's intervention, Kiritsugu Emiya returned "The Distant Ideal World" to Artoria.

Therefore, in this life-or-death crisis, Artoria was able to use the power of the scabbard to protect Lin Tian and the others.

However... the scabbard is a single-person Noble Phantasm; it can only protect the wielder. At this moment, Artoria's use of its power to shield Lin Tian and the others from Zeref's black aura has exceeded the scabbard's capabilities.

The backlash from the sword sheath caused her magic to surge wildly, relentlessly ravaging her body.

She only managed to hold out for a second before her eyes turned red, and two bloody streaks traced a tragic arc on her face.

"Artoria, remove Avalon immediately! Otherwise, you'll die!"

Lin Tian was initially delighted that Artoria used "Avalon" to help them block Zeref's attack, but when he saw the abnormality in Artoria's body, he suddenly remembered that the scabbard was only a one-to-one Noble Phantasm.

Artoria forcibly activated the energy of the scabbard to protect them, which will definitely backfire.

"Stop talking nonsense, get out of here!"

Artoria refused Lin Tian's order and urged the group to leave immediately.

"We can't leave! The power of Avalon has not only protected us, but also trapped us here."

Seeing that Artoria had made up her mind, Lin Tian said nothing more. He prepared to use advanced ghost technique spatial transfer to instantly take everyone away from here, but he found that under the protection of "Avalon", he had lost his spatial coordinates to the outside world and could not use spatial transfer to take people away from here.

And there's something even more critical: even under Avalon's protection, his emergency shelter app is unusable.

"What? Pfft!"

Artoria never expected that the Noble Phantasm she used to protect everyone would trap them here. Looking at the pitch-black world outside "Avalon", she could no longer hold on and spat out a mouthful of blood, her whole body falling backward. Fortunately, Lin Tian helped her in time.

Looking at the pale-faced Artoria in his arms, Lin Tian understood that if he wanted everyone to survive, he could only rely on himself.

"Ashido, can you teleport?"

If Lin Tian were to use spatial teleportation alone, he wouldn't need to chant the incantation. However, if he were to take everyone away from here, he would need to enhance the effect of spatial teleportation, which would require chanting the incantation completely. The incantation for spatial teleportation is very long, and it would take at least ten seconds to chant it completely.

The moment "Avalon" is deactivated, Zeref's black wave power will instantly engulf them. Currently, only Lin Tian's Flame-Flame Fruit - Ignite Energy can withstand the erosion of the black wave power.

Therefore, someone must activate "Spatial Transfer" while Lin Tian is fully resisting Zeref's magic. However, "Spatial Transfer" is a high-level demonic technique from the Bleach world, and among these people, only Death God Ashido comes from the Bleach world.

"..." Upon hearing Lin Tian's question, Asido shook his head with a gloomy face. Lin Tian overestimated him.
