Chapter 267: Dragon Graveyard
"You don't have to worry about that. www.biquge.info Val coughed and explained earnestly, "At least I won't mess around." And as far as I know, Brantish is also a woman with a languid personality, and it won't do any harm if no one provokes her. ”
Woz shook his head: "That's not what I'm worried about...... By the way, how many pieces will you be coming this time?"
"All fifteen people will be arriving. ”
Woz asked, "All of them are ontology?", he knew that these pieces were all "puppet flow" magicians, and generally the same could be achieved through golems like Val.
"Yes, it's all the ontology arriving this time. We're going to take the opportunity to gather around. Franklin replied honestly that it wasn't something to hide.
"No wonder the chess player didn't come in person. Woz suddenly realized, "If he also comes along, the Balance Organization can be regarded as going all out, in that case, it will be the rhythm of the decisive battle." ”
Woz sighed, "Actually, even if he hadn't come, the gathering of the fifteen of you alone would have caused a drastic change - the difficulty of the game would have increased a lot." ”
Val asked, "Are you talking about the chess game?"
"Well, let's sort of it. Waz shrugged and didn't explain further.
The two sides were silent for a moment, and Val spoke again and asked, "Actually, I've been wanting to ask just now, Lord Woz, the magic ...... you used before."
"You mean a speed reporter?"
"Uh...... And the word magic in the back, did you use the two magic together?"
Woz nodded in acknowledgement.
"But what's the point of that?" Val couldn't help but grumble, "Isn't it too efficient to cast spells like this?"
Even though you can use the word magic directly, you have to use the ice shape magic and the help of the super-speed chanting spell casting technique to rewrite the text and complete the magic release...... It feels like going around in a big circle to do the same thing!
Waz replied, "This will allow you to unleash word magic without the help of my magic book." ”
Franklin also questioned, "That's why that's the point? As long as you have a magic book with you, you developed this kind of magic specifically to lend your students?" He was a little skeptical that this was a response that Woz had come up with after he was banned from competing in person.
Wolds smiled: "Because there is a stage, I really need to use word magic without relying on magic books like this...... Yes, this is also a big gain for him in ancient times, and it can be regarded as a magic technique forced out by reality." Woz himself admits that this was a bit inefficient, but at least it freed him from his dependence on spellbooks, and in some cases, like now, it worked well.
As he spoke, a priest wearing small round glasses appeared on the street, followed by four golems or robots.
This is the missionary and his battle puppets "The Punisher", "The Inquisitor", and "The Mechanical Knight" Val Ito, the last of which is the engineering robot that Val has brought back to repair the street pavement damaged during the battle.
The four of them had gathered together and exchanged a brief amount of information before a lively cheer could be heard from the direction of the field in Toms Brau - the first game had a result.
Of course, the two teams of Fairy Tail took the top two. The third place is a strange guild, it should be the kind of team that "made up the number" in the original plan, right?
The Sword Biting Tiger's Ssangyong won the fourth, and they could have won the third place with their hard power, but unfortunately in the end, they were unlucky, and they ran into the "Twelve-Heavy Machine Gun Blockade Net" set up by Franklin himself, and they really wasted a little time in order to get out of trouble.
The remaining four spots in the top eight were rightfully divided between several protagonist guilds. "Mermaid's Heel" did not send the strongest players to participate, but after all, they are all beautiful women, and it is a guild composed of pure beauty magicians, no one will offend such a guild, so in the opening brawl, many teams consciously avoid them, and most of the teams that fight with them have female members. So they finished fifth.
"Snake Queen's Scales" has always been a powerful guild, and this time it also fought all the way out of the encirclement and won the sixth place; "The Crow's Tail" has always been a dark guild before, and it has a fierce reputation, but there are not too many teams that dare to provoke them, so they were able to get the ranking smoothly; and finally the eighth place is "Blue Pegasus" The team, Hibiki and Ivan's combat effectiveness is not particularly superior, in the opening melee was besieged by other teams and beaten badly, but after entering the official race stage, the situation suddenly went smoothly, although there is no word magician, but Hibiki's magic "ancient documents" are connected with word magic to a certain extent; although they can't break or even control the magic array like Philid and Rebby, but it is not difficult to find and avoid traps in advance; it's a pity that they set off relatively late, so in the end they only won the eighth place.
In the end, the "Four Hounds" were the worst, because their own personalities were more "wild", and they fought too well in the big brawl, causing the most sieges, and almost fell at the starting point and could not play normally!
At least 30 teams will be passively eliminated because two of the contestants are seriously injured, and more than 10 teams will have to be replaced by substitutes, and they are only one step away from being eliminated.
The next part of the battle is the No Limit Ring mode, in which only two places are taken - the last champion and the last person who failed to challenge the champion will receive 10 and 5 points respectively.
Because it has been seen that the organizers have artificially set up to reduce the number of participating teams, the remaining ordinary teams have calmed down a lot and did not rush into the ring rashly. So the ring match was tepid, until finally the rock iron dove pulled up to the stage to seize the champion and defended ten games in a row, defeating a group of challengers from the other protagonist guilds, the ordinary team finally raised their spirits.
They don't dare to think about it anymore, but the five points of this "last challenger" can be fought for. In order to ensure that their team's challenger is truly "last", these teams are not willing to resort to off-the-field ideas......
Unfortunately, under the deliberate hint of someone with a heart, all the teams had the same idea. As a result, under the ring, in a corner that ordinary viewers could not notice, a series of hidden and fierce struggles broke out one after another. The magicians of each guild used their own tactics, but the referees and other officials ignored these obvious fouls with extraordinary tolerance, and finally succeeded in eliminating twenty-nine teams!
In the end, through the first day of competition, the organizers were able to reduce the number of teams to about 30, barely meeting the initial expectations.
Today's game was undoubtedly a success in the eyes of ordinary spectators and laymen, because it was lively enough, and the battle scenes were extraordinarily sufficient, so that everyone felt very satisfied. But for the team magicians, especially the magicians who participated, it was a joke of a bad nature, and the whole process was so chaotic that there was no order at all!
Complaints and complaints after the fact are naturally inevitable, but in the context of the bustle of the entire royal capital, these small complaints did not attract much attention.
As night fell, the atmosphere in the Honey Bone Hotel was hot. Fairy Tail toasted once again in celebration. They were arguably the biggest winners in today's game, with a total of 18 points! Unfortunately, this was to be scattered between the two teams, and the real number one in today's score ranking was 13 points for Snake Scales.
But that didn't stop them from wanting to celebrate. Also in a good mood was President Makarov, so he decided to indulge the children for the time being, and no longer restrain them as he did yesterday.
Woz sat in the corner in a low-key manner, not messing around with the others, and he was patiently listening to Rebi's debriefing, instructing her more about the magic of words.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Woz's heart moved, and the text annotation he left on the dragon monster moved, "Caught you!"
"What's wrong, Teacher?" asked Lebby, curious.
"It's the monster I encountered today, and there's a new movement. ”
"So now are you going out?"
"Of course!"
"Then let's go!" said Mira Jeanne, who had arrived at her side at some point, with an eager expression on her face.
As she spoke, she firmly hugged Woz's arm: "Don't want to leave me alone this time!"
Woz smiled wryly, "By the way, I never seem to have left you, right?"
Mira Jenny couldn't help but be stunned, and then thought about it carefully. Eventually, the silver-haired girl confirmed that Woz hadn't really "left her" when it came to it. From the very beginning, he brought himself and his younger siblings to the tail of the fairy, and then he also had the responsibility of "guiding the way" so that they could become real magicians as soon as possible. After Lisanna's accident, Woz focused more on himself and insisted on Lisanna's belief that she was still alive. At that stage, she gave up her profession as a magician, and she left Woz, right?
Further back...... A lot happened in 784, but no matter what the big or small event, they really never separated, and Mira Jeanne also accompanied Woz to find Hayberrion to practice. She's the longest-standing member of the guild who has been with Woz.
Speaking of which, the only thing that made Mira Jenny unhappy was the Adras incident, when she turned into a magic crystal and was not able to participate in it.
The next Sky Wolf Island is the real separation, and in the face of the strong and irresistible strength of the Black Dragon King Akuno Lorria, the people of the Demon Tail have to fall into a deep sleep under the protection of the Fairy Ball. Judging from Mila Jenny's subjective time, their separation is only half a year, but for Woz, it is really a long ten years!
When the door of memory was reopened, and the things about Woz came to mind one by one, Mira Jenny realized that the people she was familiar with had suddenly become a little strange. Not only is it more mature in appearance, but now Wox feels as if it has undergone vicissitudes.
Yes, in order to return to this era, Wolds has been hibernating for hundreds of years!
The attentive Mila Jenny had long since discovered that Watts had been forcing herself to recall the events of this era, and was working hard to play the role of "herself". Silently doing his own efforts to try to reintegrate into Fairy Tail.
Thinking of this, Mira Jeanne felt a pang of heartache. Five hundred years of waiting must be very lonely, right?
"Don't use the competition as an excuse again, even as a contestant, it won't conflict with this action!"
Woz shrugged: "Okay, I'm okay with that. ”
Lebi raised her hand and said, "I think I need to improve my actual combat ability!"
"Hehe, call the automatic secretary out and pay attention to protect yourself. Waz nodded, and Rebi could use the power of the magic book, so she could also act as a main force. Coupled with Mira Jenny's words, the combat effectiveness of their group is absolutely guaranteed!
Woz felt that as long as he didn't encounter an enemy of the level of Jelf or Akunororia, he could basically ensure his own safety.
Mira Jenny looked a little unhappy, but she also knew that this operation was not a date with the two of Wox, but an investigation mission with a certain degree of danger, so the stronger her side, the better. If it weren't for the fear of causing a commotion and making things bigger, in fact, calling Laxus Elusa and them together would have been a foolproof decision.
Probably stimulated by the two "stupid apprentices" in ancient times, Woz showed great interest in teaching Rebi after returning. Looks like she's made up her mind to pass on her word magic.
After greeting the two presidents, the three of them left the hotel.
After they left, Makarov asked with some trepidation: "First Lord, is it really good to let them take risks like this? ”
Mebis nodded, "It's normal that you can detect anomalies. It feels ...... You are the one who inherited my will, after all. As for Woz, although he is also a member of the goblin, he is actually an existence of the same level as me, and I can't force him too much, he also has his own battles. Now all we have to do is believe in them. ”
Mebis's delicate and small face showed a look of relief: "He has grown up to be very strong, is he not weaker than your magician...... Even better than me in some way! So, don't worry about them. ”
Crocas, the royal capital of the Fiore Kingdom, is truly a "city that never sleeps", and even though it is already night, when you walk out of the inn, it is still brightly lit outside, even more lively than during the day.
Bustling tourists walk through the streets, enjoying the night view of the prosperous royal capital. Many people were still immersed in the daytime morning game, excitedly discussing aloud with their peers what had happened in today's game.
What a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere!" Rebi sighed slightly, but immediately quickened her pace to keep up with the two men in front of her.
As S-class magicians, Mira Jenny and Woz not only possess strength beyond ordinary magicians, but more importantly, their consciousness and experience are far beyond the average level.
The moment they stepped out of the Honey Bone Hotel, both of them entered the "mission state", and their spirit and will were highly concentrated, and they could enter the battle with the best posture at any time!
These two people, once gathered, it is really terrifying! Rebi hugged the magic book in her arms, and also put herself into serious mode as much as possible - referring to her usual state when she read books and read magic texts.
Although the "text note" in the morning was not released through the magic book, it can still be tracked through the magic book. The automatic secretary flew to the front to lead the way for the trio, leading them all the way to the edge of the city.
"It's ...... The arena of the Great Demon Fight?" Leibi suddenly recognized the majestic building in front of her, and in today's game, she had also seen this superstar gladiatorial arena from the outside like this, so she was deeply impressed.
Woz suddenly remembered something: "Is this the place?"
Instead of leading them into the arena, the automatic secretary turned around and walked down Toms Brau Hill until they reached the entrance to a remote mine.
"It turns out that there is still such a place near the royal capital. Mira Jenny said, her expression becoming serious, "The breath inside...... It's strange, strange but very strong, you have to be careful!"
"Well, be careful!" Woz narrowed his eyes, he was familiar with this aura, although it had been dimmed countless times here, it was indeed a magic wave exclusive to the dragons.
Thinking of the obvious "dragon" characteristics of those dragon monsters, many things can be explained.
Entering the depths of the cave, the two girls were stunned by what they saw.
Although it has been dead and weathered for hundreds of years, these bones still contain a trace of extraordinary magic fluctuations, silently telling the strength of these corpses during their lifetime!
The further you go, the more dragon bones you see, all of them in different postures and shapes, and it seems that they should be different dragon species, but the only thing that is the same is that these bones have some mutilated parts. It's not the weathering of the bones after death, it's the injuries they suffered during their lifetime, or rather, it's because of these injuries that they died!
Because these are fatal injuries from the point of view of location and degree.
"Here...... What the hell is this place?"
"Why is there such a place under the royal capital?"
The two women asked in surprise at the same time, but they were only exclaiming, but they didn't really want an answer, because they also knew that the answer would probably not be known by anyone.
"This is the Dragon's Graveyard. Unexpectedly, Wads gave an answer right away, but it also made sense, after all, he was Woz!
"The dragons who sleep here are the dragons that were slain by Akunorolia four hundred years ago!"
