Chapter Seventy-Three: The Rising Waves
In the sky above 10,000 meters, the huge magic guide spaceship flew slowly, and after passing through a thick cloud, it gradually approached another behemoth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
It was a real monsterβan "island" flying in the air! And it was extremely strange that what could be called an island was a boxy cube with sharp edges and corners! What was even more strange was that there were some blackened trees growing sparsely on its surface, and there was even a meandering river, which showed no signs of pouring through the edges and corners, but flowed close to the surface of the cube.
The island is filled with a black magic that is so thick that it makes the heart palpitate, and it is enough to shock all the magicians who see it, silently demonstrating its evil and power.
But the magic guide spaceship, which was also rippling with pitch-black magic, was not afraid at all, and still flew straight towards the strange island.
On the other side of the island, there are several small black dots approaching at great speed, also taking this island as their destination.
"Hmph, it's really troublesome to be in the sky every time we meet!" A man's voice came from the wind brought by the speedy flight, "Should we also get a spaceship?"
"No, no. A deep voice came out, "There are only six people in our guild, and equipping a magic ship is too luxurious. And it's basically useless, we can fly up on our own. You can't waste money like this!"
Then came a charming woman's voice: "So this way, only we have the least number of people at each meeting, and the minions below can't come up." β
"So what? Those guys aren't useful. It's just the leaders and high-level officials who meet each time, right? just a few of us are enough......"
"But even then we don't have as many people on the other two sides!" said the woman reluctantly.
"No way, who made us the 'Six Demon Generals'? There are only six of us. β
"After all, on the other side are the 'Seven Dependents of Purgatory' and the 'Nine Ghost Gates'. β
"That's why we are looked down upon by them......"
"That's enough!" the man flying at the front scolded, "It's almost there, stop talking nonsense! When we find 'Nirvana', we'll let them know how powerful the 'Six Demon Generals' are! Now, let's see why that guy Maldo is in such a hurry to hold this meeting." β
"What else could it be? It must have something to do with the war the other day...... I didn't expect the ghosts to fall so easily, I knew we might as well kill them sooner. β
"The dissolution and collapse of the Spectral Ruler means that more than half of the kingdom's small and medium-sized cities are in the void of the Magus Guild, so it's a good time. β
"Huh, do those high-ranking fellows at the Gates of Hades also care about the mortal land below?"
The man at the head spoke again: "Quiet! We don't have to worry about so much! Everything goes according to the previous plan, and everything else is left behind! Focus on 'Nirvana'!"
In the highest conference room on the top floor of the Council of Magic, all ten members of the council were there, even though it was late at night.
ββ¦β¦ What should I do? Did you really just let Fairy Tail go?"
"Don't talk nonsense, they weren't wrong this time, so why let it go?"
"But that Mister Heights wiped out all the divisions of the Ghost Dominator!"
"Anyway, the Ghost Dominator has also failed on the frontal battlefield, and even if those branches are left, they will be forcibly disbanded, right?"
ββ¦β¦ The problem is not here, but that all the people in the branch have been knocked down by Mistergang, and although no one has died, those people are now in a deep coma! As a result, there will be no Wizard Guilds stationed in more than a hundred cities across the country, and those hidden dark guilds will definitely take the opportunity to take action!"
"Indeed...... Although we have taken remedial measures with the United Kingdom Government, it is still far from enough!"
"So it's better to let the fairy tail be mended, they have defeated the ghost dominator, and they can be completely trusted in terms of strength. β
"We never doubted the Fairy Tail's prowess! The problem is that now they've just finished the Great War and are in the process of repairing. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if all of them recover, it will only be a medium-sized guild that can barely gather enough people for a hundred! The number of people is not enough at all! Even if you let a goblin go to a city, it will not be enough!"
"This ...... Looks like a real problem......"
"So then again, with such a serious impact on us and the kingdom, is it just a matter of letting goblin tail go?"
"What else can I do? It's not that you don't know, for the sake of the fairy tail, even 'that one' has come forward...... In the past, we tacitly assumed that the Spectre Dominator provoked a war, and we were guilty of it. What's more, the old horse with the fairy tail is also a saint ten magician, and he can't help but give face. β
"So be it, we'll take care of this crisis...... When the fairy tail recovers, send a few more to them as punishment. β
Late at night...... No, it's early in the morning, isn't it?" The young assistant looked sleepily at the darkness outside the window, twisted herself, and tried to shrink herself into her seat more comfortably, while constantly napping. As a young and beautiful lady, staying up late is the thing she hates the most.
But for the sake of work, I can't help myself. Mozi had no way to refuse the dispatch from the headquarters, so he could only follow his predecessors on the late-night train and rush to the east overnight.
Since becoming a reporter for the famous magazine "Wizard Weekly", Moko has begun to live a non-stop life of running around the country, and in order to complete the tasks assigned to her by the headquarters, Moko feels that she is even busier than the magicians in the guild!
I knew I was going to be a magician...... At least the time is freer!The more magicians she interviews, the more she yearns for the life of magicians.
The man sitting next to him did not feel sleepy at all, but turned through his notebook with an excited face, and kept reciting words, writing something in his notebook from time to time.
This blonde man is Mozi's predecessor, Jason, a veteran reporter. The man's speech speed is quite fast, and in the muttering sentences, the only thing Moko can understand is Jason's mantra "cool ~~".
"Senior, what is the task this time? So urgent?" Mozi asked as he forcibly pulled himself up.
Jason's eyebrows suddenly danced: "Of course it's the tail of the fairy!"
Mozi nodded silently, this result was not unexpected. Everyone in the magazine knows that Jason is a big fan of Fairy Tail, and he has only reached his current status by tracking and interviewing Fairy Tail. It can be said that with the rise of the fairy tail step by step, the status of the predecessors in the magazine has also improved step by step, and this time I heard that the fairy tail will replace the ghost ruler to become the new first guild...... And because of the long time of the follow-up interview, he also almost monopolized the task of interviewing Fairy Tail. That's why at this time, he was specially sent to interview Fairy Tail.
As soon as he heard that he was going to interview Fairy Tail himself, Jason was completely excited. Pulled his assistant Moko out of the house overnight.
"Senior, why did you go to Fairy Tail at this time?" Moko yawned and grumbled dissatisfiedly.
"Of course, it was an urgent interview, and I traveled all night to get first-hand information. β
"But I've heard that Fairy Tail has also suffered heavy losses during the war, and has been taking a vacation to rest lately. β
Jason nodded: "That's right, but I just got the news that Magnolia City almost had a city-wide party tonight, and it was initiated by Fairy Tail." It can be seen that they have officially resumed operation!"
"That's why you're in such a hurry to send us over?"
Jason smiled and comforted his assistant: "Okay, stop complaining, just stay up late once in a while." This is a historic moment, Fairy Tail has defeated the Ghost Dominator and become the new First Guild! It's so cool! Be sure to catch the news!"
Jason said as he handed her his notebook, "Let's take a look at the materials first." My information is collected exclusively, and it is not available anywhere else. β
Mozi forcibly opened her eyes, cheered up, and began to look through the information Jason had gathered.
Soon she was flipping through it.
"Senior, what's the situation with this Woz, it looks like he's just an ordinary magician, but why is he the most prominent in this battle?"
"Woz, he's no ordinary magician, he's Fairy Tail's ace S-class magician!" Jason explained, "but he's usually low-key. β
"S-class magician?" Mozi was surprised, "How is it possible?
Jason said, "Well...... Actually, there is a reason. For a long time, news about Watts was deliberately blocked by order of the Senate, and no news magazine could report it!"
Mozi became curious: "Why is that? Could it be that there is some scandal?" out of the sensitivity of the journalist's profession, she immediately habitually guessed.
Jason thought for a moment and said, "This...... Maybe it's a scandal, right? After all, it's not a deed worthy of praise, but if you want me to say, it's really, cool~~!"
Mozi looked at the senior in the self-congratulatory speechlessly, and couldn't help but remind: "So, what the hell is going on!"
Jason said mysteriously, "Because of Wads, he used to ...... Kill someone!"
Mozi resisted the urge to go berserk: "Yes......! Please, senior, he's a magician, isn't it? Isn't it normal to kill people in a mission like a cleanup?
It's no wonder she's so excited, it's completely normal for magicians to kill, especially in combat missions, if they are banned according to this standard, then their magazines don't need to be done anymore, because more than ninety percent of star magicians will be banned.
Jason explained: "Not in a mission, but in a retaliation operation, it is said, that Woz ...... Woz, who was still a teenager at the time, slaughtered more than 300 people of a mercenary guild in one night! Although he had a reason, this record was too terrifying, and it caused tension between the Mercenary Alliance and the Senate for a time...... So for various reasons, we were ordered to ban Woz together. β
Mo Zi was silent for a while, more than three hundred, it is not a big number, those high-level magicians who specialize in the task of clearing bandits, which of them have more than this number of lives on their hands, but slaughtering more than three hundred people at one time is another concept.
This kind of person can be regarded as the reincarnation of the evil ghost Shura!
"So, what's the situation?" asked Mozi.
Jason scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "I don't know about this, after all, this is also an order issued by the Senate, and I don't dare to delve too deep into it......"
