Chapter 205: The Elite Exhausted
The next morning, Lucy walked up to the bar with a nervous look on her face, and said to Mila Jeanne as if she had discovered something serious, "It's a big deal, Mila Jeanne!
Mira Jenny was not too surprised, and said habitually: "That's it...... It's nothing, Kana becomes like this every year at this time......" said the silver-haired girl with a look of guilt. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Mira Jenny probably knows what the reason for Kana's awkward trouble is. Kana is the oldest of the new generation and the one who has taken the S-Rank Magus Advancement Exam the most. For five years, beginning in 779, her name was on the list of candidates for the examination every year.
But tragically, Kana also suffered five consecutive defeats...... Strictly speaking, in fact, Kana's ability and strength are above the level, and there is always a possibility of passing the exam. The only downside may be her luck, after all, only one magician will be selected to be promoted to S-rank in the annual exam, and in the past few years, Kana has faced all the current new generation of S-class magicians except for Laxus.
Mila Jenny herself was also an important member of the "fight" against Kana, so she was somewhat embarrassed to mention this, so she didn't talk to Lucy in detail, but just comforted her.
The guild hall was still bustling. Most of the guild members are hurrying to make the final sprint. The only ones who can still spend their lives leisurely and leisurely are the old guild elders such as Macao and Wakaba who have given up on the upgrade exam, as well as Lucy, Wendy, and Lisanna, who have just joined and returned to the guild.
Of course, there is also Xia Lulu, as a kitten, even the magical transcendent race can't change the fact that they are not good at fighting. With the exception of freaks like Pansaria, no transcendent can be a magician in his own right. So Xia Lulu didn't have that thought at all, and she was chatting with Wendy and Lisana at this time.
After Xia Lulu learned of her background and met Charlotte, the queen of the Beondalian, she found that her "foresight" ability gradually awakened. At this moment, she is showing off a little bit of her new abilities to the two girls.
Suddenly, a layer of pitch darkness enveloped Xia Lulu's "vision", and an extremely unsettling feeling was transmitted in her foreknowledge of the picture, and then all the pictures were blurred, without color, only a pale and gray scene. A figure crossed in front of her eyes, and she didn't even have time to see who they were, but Xia Lulu was sure that they were all Fairy Tail's companions, and all of them were scarred. Finally, the picture freezes in a barren ruin, in the middle of a large area of dead woods, and a young mysterious man sits alone. The man was dressed in a simple sorcerer's robe, and the lines of his face were soft, making him look very handsome. But the moment Xia Lulu's eyes met it, she felt endless terror and evil!
Immediately afterwards, Xia Lulu was awakened in an instant, and fell on the table in shock, gasping, and unconsciously, a cold sweat broke out all over her body.
"What's the matter, Xia Lulu, are you alright?" heard Wendy's worried inquiry.
Xia Lulu was still recalling the scene she had just seen, and if it was before, she would probably have taken it as a hallucination or a nightmare. But now that she knows that she has the ability to "predict", Xia Lulu can be sure that this must be a certain future that she sees! But this prophecy has no beginning or end, the time and place are unknown, and the cause of the incident is unknown. Even if you see these images, they are of little use.
And just say it without a head?
Xia Lulu looked at Wendy, who was full of worry, and shook her head secretly, let's not say it yet, lest this kid worry again. And now the people in the guild are busy with the next big thing, and I'm afraid they don't have the time to help themselves investigate this inexplicable prophecy.
Xia Lulu decided to wait and see if there would be more specific prediction pictures in the future.
"No, it's nothing, maybe it's not very skilled, a little tired. Xia Lulu casually made up a reason, Wendy, an innocent girl, really didn't have the slightest suspicion, and Lisana tilted her head and thought about it, and didn't delve into it.
At this moment, a man with an inch head wearing a shirt with vertical stripes walked into the guild, and then walked straight to the bar where Mira Jeanne was.
"It's Mester. Mila Jenny greeted with a smile, "Are you finally back?" ”
Mestre seemed to be a taciturn person, and in the face of the greetings of Mila Jeanne and the others, he simply nodded in return, and then took out a stack of task lists from his arms and handed them to Mila Jeanne: "At this time, the last two months, the previous ones should have been sent back." ”
Mira Jeanne pondered for a moment, then nodded: "That's true, Mester is still the same workaholic as ever, and no one in so many mission guilds can compare." ”
Mace nodded, then asked, "When will the list be announced?"
Mira Jenny knew that he was asking about the list of candidates for the promotion exam, and she didn't hide it: "It just so happened this afternoon." ”
Mester finally showed a smile of satisfaction, in order to successfully obtain this place, he specially used the channels of the Senate to "get" hundreds of task lists! These tasks are now completely counted on the head of the fairy tail, which is simply a big gift for nothing. If it weren't for the fact that the location of this exam was the sacred place of Fairy Tail, the legendary Sirius Island, the Senate would probably not be willing to pay such a price to send Mester in.
You know, Sirius Island has always been shrouded in powerful magic, and no one can find its specific location unless it is the Fairy Tail! Moreover, the Wolf Island is the holy place of the Fairy Tail, which is said to hold countless secrets, and is one of the gathering places of magicians that existed in the last era of the wizarding world, and its history is far older than the Senate itself. And it may contain valuable information and information that the Senate is eager to obtain.
In the previous day's preliminary investigation, Mester had already mastered the mission completion data of everyone in the guild, and he could be sure that no one would be able to surpass him! Getting on the list of candidates is already a sure thing.
After doing this, Mestre turned to leave. There were a lot of people in the hall, and there was a lot of uncertainty, so as a spy, he didn't want to stay long. What Mester left in the minds of everyone in the guild was images such as "withdrawn" and "lone ranger". So leave at this time without worrying that someone will feel wrong.
"Meester, you're back!" but soon someone stopped him.
Woz walked in through the doorway, the blindfold on his eye had been removed, and he could no longer see anything unusual in his right eye, it was as bright and deep as before.
"Long time no see. Woz walked up to Mestre and greeted him with a warm expression.
Meester's body stiffened, and he reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "Yo, Woz, long time no see!"
Of all the people in the guild, the last thing he wanted to face was Woz, because Woz was most likely to see through his disguise!
Mester's gaze quickly swept down, skimming the magic book at Woz's waist, full of fear.
But Woz didn't have anything unusual, but patted him on the shoulder very familiarly: "It's just right to come back, and it will be announced in the afternoon." Go and take a break. ”
Mester hurriedly strode out of the guild. But he muttered in his heart: "It seems that he really doesn't know my identity...... And my magic seems to work exceptionally well for him, doesn't I remember instilling in Wox the memory that we had a good relationship?"
Mira Jenny was looking at Woz carefully, and it was the first time she had seen a prosthetic eye that could be messed with, and she couldn't help but reach out and shake it in front of Woz's right eye.
Wox reluctantly pressed the white little hand in front of him: "It's really good, you can see it, there is no problem anymore." ”
Lucy also asked curiously, "Is there really no difference, compared to real eyes?"
"My left eye is still normal, and when you compare the two sides, it's no different," Waz said. ”
Mira Jeanne asked, "And what about your 'reading' ability, will it be affected?"
"As long as you can see it, there will be no problem. Wadsz reassured, "Mira, don't worry too much. Look at Elusa, she also used her prosthetic eye, isn't there nothing wrong with it? ”
Mira Jeanne let go of the worries in her heart, but still warned: "You can't mess around like this in the future, you have to take more care of your body!"
Knives and guns have no eyes, this is not something I can control!" Woz smiled bitterly, but in order to reassure the girl in front of him, he still nodded in agreement.
Soon after, President Makarov and Elusa and Kildas came down from the upper floors - they had been discussing the examination and the battle plan until this point, when it was finally over.
The elder man, who had arranged everything, seemed to be relieved at last, and sat down at the bar and sipped a beer comfortably.
Elusa nodded at Woz and Mira Jenny, "Everything is ready, just wait for the list to be announced in the afternoon, and start all this!"
Soon, as more and more people returned from the mission, no one took the new mission to go out. Everyone is waiting for the last moment.
In the afternoon, in the guild hall, the stage for the beauty contest during the celebration was once again set up. All the members of the Fairy Tail Guild gathered under the stage, bustling and noisy.
President Makarov and the four S-class magicians stood majestically on the stage and announced to everyone simply and directly, "This year's S-class magician upgrade exam has officially begun!"
With a burst of cheers from below, President Makarov began to announce the list of candidates.
"First of all, Naz Doragnier!"
Natsu clenched his fists and burst into flames, "Great! S-class, I'm done!"
"And then, Gray Folpasta!"
Gray just snorted coldly, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"Eluffmann Strauss!" the next name was read aloud by the president.
Elufman shook his fist vigorously and shouted in a low voice, "Good!
"Jubian Rox!"
Zhu Bi'an had been staring at Gray intently, when he suddenly heard his name, and suddenly exhaled in surprise: "What?
Makarov ignored her surprise and continued to announce: "Kana Arupelona!"
Unlike the excitement of the other candidates, Kana looked downcast, as if it wasn't her name.
"Fillid Justin!"
"I won't let you down, Lord Laxus!" Fillid swore silently, closing his eyes.
"Lebi Makugaden!"
The blue-haired petite girl was even more surprised than Zhu Bi'an just now, she had already given up this exam! Lebby looked at Woz on the stage suspiciously, if there was really any reason, she believed that her teacher must have done something to open the back door for her or something.
Makarov paused before saying his last name: "Mestre Glade!"
Mester, who was in the crowd, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief that he had been selected after all! Although the reasons may be different, he was just as excited as the other candidates.
"The above 8 people are all the candidates for this promotion exam!" President Makarov continued, "You are all excellent magicians of Fairy Tail, but as we all know, there is only one winner in each exam!
Mira Jenny took a step forward holding the document board: "Next, let me explain the requirements and precautions for this exam. ”
The three of Elusa, Woz, and Kildas also stepped forward together. They didn't do anything deliberately, but the four S-class magicians simply stood on the stage, which brought a strong sense of oppression to the people below. The whispers in the crowd quickly calmed down, and the originally lively and relaxed atmosphere gradually became solemn.
Mira Jenny still has a cute expression with a clever smile, but the announcement made everyone below frightened: "In this exam, the four of us will be your hindrance!"
……
In the vast hall of the guild, there was a deathly silence.
Kildas suddenly spoke: "Every S-rank mage has gone through this level, since you want to level up, don't be afraid!"
Everyone was still silent, and it might have been fine if it had been a different person, but Kildas's words were completely unconvincing. It's hard to imagine how Laxus and Woz passed the exams -- the two years were all presided over by Kildas.
Lucy whispered to Lebi below, "I don't think I'm going to go all out, right?
Lucy was suspicious in her heart that before Laxus was successfully upgraded, Fairy Tail would only have an S-class magician for nearly twenty years, and it was the uncle who eliminated all the candidates in the exam!
Mila Jenny also said: "Don't be careless, even I won't release water in the exam." ”
Then, after the wails of the crowd, Mira Jeanne continued: "The rules of this examination require each candidate to choose a companion as a partner, and the two will face the next challenges together. The stakes are high, so be sure to think carefully before making a decision. ”
"There are two requirements for choosing a partner: first, it must be a companion of Fairy Tail, and second, it must not choose our S-class mage or leader. ”
"Please hurry up and choose a partner, the venue of this exam is set in our guild's holy land, Sirius Island. Mira Jenny finally looked at everyone, "Tomorrow night, all the members who took the exam will gather at the port and take a boat to Sirius Island!"
