Chapter Twenty-Five: The Wizard of Thunder

Laxus threw his fist, and a golden thunderbolt suddenly slashed from the sky above where Woz was in front of him, striking at a speed that would not allow Woz to dodge. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Woz didn't try to match Lightning's speed, and unleashed the "Sanctuary" early, relying on the magic of words stored in the book to wage a war of attrition against Laxus.

In battle mode, Laxus is just like his nickname, "Thor", his whole body is shrouded in a layer of golden lightning, like an inoffensive god, incomparably majestic. Bolts of lightning slashed at Woz without reason.

"Why, Woz, you're not going to spend all the time hiding in your tortoise shell, are you?" called Laxus, smirking wickedly. At the same time at Woz's feet and above his head, a brilliant golden magic array appeared, slowly turning, and his exclusive thunder and lightning magic filled the room. It was clear that he was about to deliver a shocking blow, and this blow was enough to break Woz's defensive shield. If Wox still hides inside, then he's lost.

Woz no longer sat still, and borrowed the abundant thunder and lightning magic around him to cast a "thunderbolt", quickly out of the range of the magic array.

"Thunderbolt" is a magic developed by Woz with the positioning of assault and strong attack, and has the explosive power unique to electric magic. It's also perfect as a movement magic at the moment.

Never before had Woz moved at such a swift speed, and several bolts of lightning from Laxus subconsciously struck Woz's back. Woz rushed towards Laxus in an unprecedented manner to take the initiative to attack, and in the end, he spread out the magic book and used the cover as a shield to block the electric light that Laxus directly attacked.

In the dazzling light caused by the lightning being blocked by the writing, the various magic arrays blessed on the cover were activated one by one, and it was easy to resist the lightning strikes, and a little dark gold flew out from the other side of the back of the book, and by the time Laxus noticed it, it was already covered with strange words peculiar to Woz.

"Oh no, fooled! so quickly, when?" the thought crossed Laxus's mind, and Woz's magic was already activated.

"A word thirteen, relatively unequal, change: charge balance!" Woz activated the magic in a short word. Forcing the potential difference within the magic circle to be canceled, thus maximizing the use of lightning magic. In this way, even a powerful thunderbolt magician like Laxus would be limited for a certain amount of time.

As someone who keeps track of all the written information, Woz has a habit of writing something in his free time. And during his time in the guild, he even planned to simulate the battle with everyone in the guild. A rival as strong as Laxus is the focus of Woz's research. In response to the thunder and lightning magic, Woz has already prepared.

Laxus's next attack was forcibly interrupted as he found himself temporarily unable to harness the magic in his surroundings as he had done before. Laxus didn't have to rely on the thunder and lightning magic in the air to fight, but because he was a thunderbolt magician, the magic he mastered was powerful, but the corresponding magic power consumed to cast the magic was also very large. Normally, he might not care about this extra cost, but at the moment he was dueling with a guy like Woz, who had almost no upper limit in terms of mana reserves, so Laxus paid special attention to conserving mana, and naturally consciously used the free mana in the air to cast magic.

At this time, a sudden gap appeared in the supply of mana from the outside world, further interrupting the rhythm of his attack, making Laxus feel a little bad in his heart.

However, he did not panic after being experienced in combat, and like Woz using Thunderbolt, his body was full of lightning, and he also turned into golden lightning to break through Woz's magic array and rush towards Woz.

Look at the original "Thunderbolt"! Laxus crashes into Woz with the sound of wind and thunder, using his body as a weapon. The latter didn't seem to react and collided directly with him. Then, rightfully so, Woz was knocked back and flew backwards.

Laxus ignored inertia and jumped up and caught up with Woz in the air. The rhythm is finally back!Laxus was overjoyed, and raised his fist, wrapped in countless electric rays and smashed out.

"It's over, Woz!" Laxis shouted, his fist unanimous, striking Woz with lightning that pierced through the air...... of the book.

This guy, what a nasty book!!! His attacks have always been indestructible, and being repeatedly blocked by the book makes Laxus very unhappy, and he angrily attacks to destroy it.

However, Woz threw the book to the ground with a force, and quickly retreated with the help of the lightning effect to dodge the blow of Laxus. Laxus was not affected by Woz's unexpected actions this time, and immediately threw a third punch, and the momentum rose again, and the electricity on the fist was so strong that it directly electrolyzed the air and made a roaring sound, which was Thor's blow!

But at this moment, Woz's counterattack also came. The corners of Woz's mouth were raised, revealing a smile that had succeeded in his plan, and he pointed at Laxus with his sword in his hand: "Word chain, bind." ”

Laxus, who was very upset, immediately felt a sinking of his feet, as if he was tied to something. Glancing down, he saw a dark gold chain tied around his left ankle, the other end of which was attached to the magic book that had just been thrown down. Laxus was furious, the "lightning strike" he was using at this time was completely a melee attack technique that wrapped lightning in his hand, and he was embarrassed to find that his fist couldn't reach Woz with his left foot tied!

Woz clasped his hands together, then knotted the outer seal, and said solemnly: "Proverbs, obelisk bronze tower!"

Dozens of dark gold words condensed into substance floated out of Woz's magic book, and suddenly shot out, smashing into the ground around Laxus with a sharp whistling sound, and the small words were like a thousand pounds, smashing into three large craters. Subsequently, three majestic obelisk bronze towers rose from the ground, forming a regular triangle to enclose Laxus in the middle. The copper tower is not high, but it is extremely dignified, not at all like it was made of magic, and it exudes an unshakable aura like a Dinghai Divine Needle. The moment he was surrounded, Laxus felt a burst of pressure - he was actually suppressed in momentum! And many chains flew out of the tower, and the three obelisk towers were used as fulcrums to form a cage.

"A word 16, cage, change: prison dragon tower, Faraday cage. Woz stood still, reaching out to recall the magic book on the ground, "Eleven word B, magic isolation." ”

Laxus was furious, and endless lightning burst from his body to bombard Woz's cage. But it was evident that his lightning was seen flowing down the chains to the Copper Tower, eventually leading underground.

"It's useless. Woz said outside, "This is the sealing magic developed with the guild leader, originally specifically used to lock down the confinement of Natsu, the definition of the original development was a cage that can imprison dragons, and in order to deal with you, I have also made special improvements, so even you in Laxus don't have to want to escape easily."

As he spoke, Woz raised his hand and pressed it, countless words appeared on the surface of the cage, and then they were shuffled and re-hidden, this is another magic "Wen Lock" developed by Woz according to the original text magic of this world, which is specially used to seal and lock the cage type magic, and no one can unlock it except Wox himself. You can only wait for the mana of the cage to run out or force force it.

"Stay in peace, your magic will run out in an hour or so. Wadsz closed the book, ignoring Laxus's angry gaze and walked away.

As for whether he would be annoyed and angry when he came out, Wads didn't care. Because Woz has decided to take a leave of absence to rest for a while, so that he can recuperate from his injury and think about what will happen next, after meeting Zhang Xuqian, many of his principles and strategies will change.

Laxus unleashed even more intense thunder and lightning, and the golden light filled the cage, looking like a magic lamp that was about to get out of control.

"Damn, what a nasty magic. Laxus was speechless, and when he saw Woz leaving, he couldn't help but complain and curse, and punched the tower. The solid copper tower was covered with fist marks, but there was no sign of damage.

At this time, three people arrived outside the tower, led by a green-haired man, followed by a man and a woman. Seeing the trapped Laxus, they all ran over in surprise.

"Are you alright, Laxus?" asked the green-haired man with concern, "because we saw Woz going back alone, so we came to take a look." ”

The bewitching woman behind her covered her mouth with a folding fan and exclaimed in a very exaggerated tone: "Eh, eh, I didn't expect you to be locked up here, boss." It's a rare scene!"

The last man with the strange mask looked at the cage carefully, saw the flowing square text, and turned to the green-haired man, "Filid, can you unlock this barrier?"

The green-haired man shook his head, "No." Woz's word magic and mine word magic are two different things entirely. And that strange magic of his should be unique in the world. Except for himself, I'm afraid only Rebi can solve it, right?"

The bewitching woman stroked her brown wavy hair, and said dissatisfiedly: "What, you are not as good as that little girl? ”

Filid said helplessly: "Leby's kind of writing was taught by that Woltz himself, and he can be regarded as half a student." But from my standpoint, it's impossible to learn magic from Woz anyway, right?"

"Hey, hey, is it true that your magic has been completely restrained by him?"

"No, as I said, we're two kinds of magic, and there's no absolute connection...... So to say who is stronger than whom, it depends on the strength of the mana of the respective user. ”

Abba Greene said, "...... Aren't you better than Woz?"

“……”

Laxus, who had calmed down, walked over: "I was careless in this duel, and I didn't guard against Woz's strange magic at all. Is he back in the guild now?" despite his repeated provocations against Woz, Woz has always refused to avoid fighting, so today's fight was actually the first meeting between the two in five years, and it did catch Laxus a little off guard.

Fillid replied, "Woz, he just returned to the guild and went home to rest." ”

"Hmph, he's pretty quick to hide. Laxus snorted disapprovingly. With his knowledge of Woz, he had already guessed Woz's thoughts, and then he must have avoided contact with him for various reasons, so as not to give himself another chance to challenge him.

With Laxus's self-esteem, he would not be so willing to be locked up in the magic barrier by his opponent for so long. And although this duel was still evenly matched, Laxus knew that he had already lost the moment he was trapped by Woz, and from his subordinate Filid, he knew that once a first-class word wizard was given enough time, he could set up a fortress!

In short, after knowing his shortcomings and carelessness, Laxus will not easily give up the opportunity to defeat Woz, after all, he wants victory rather than self-inflicted humiliation.

Philid studied the cage and said to Laxus, "This enchantment seems to be similar to the one in the basement of the guild, and it has been consumed a lot by Laxus. I think it's already possible to unravel. ”

"Really, how?" asked Abba Greene.

Philid drew his sword and slashed at the bronze tower: "Dark text, erosion." A black and purple text was engraved on the body of the tower, and it spread rapidly.

"You don't have to unlock Woz's magic, you just need to destroy the magic itself. He explained, slashing a few more times in succession, "And this barrier is not strong on the outside, so it can be easily broken through." ”

Soon, a copper tower collapsed as a pile of decaying debris. After losing one of the fulcrums, the remaining copper towers and chains turned into bits of golden light and dispersed.

After coming out, Laxus immediately walked towards the guild, obviously angry after being locked up for so long.

"By the way," said Pygusrow, "Elusa was captured by the council just now. He tried to ease the atmosphere, after all, when the boss was embarrassed, it was undoubtedly the best consolation to have a more unfortunate presence.

"What?" Unexpectedly, instead of gloating, Laxus was furious, "When did we become so weak?

"No, it's supposed to be nothing more than a formality......" Fillid explained.

"I know!" said Laxus, "but why would the Senate be in such a situation? It's not the result of the naïve guys in the guild getting into trouble all day, the old man and the Woz being too weak!" he said angrily, "This guild is so disappointing. This goblin's tail ......"

Abba Greene agreed, "yes, yes, there are too many naïve guys. Even Elusa is, there are too many children who haven't grown up. ”

"Such a guild is not the strongest. Fillid concluded.

"So what, boss, are you going to make some changes?"

Laxus sneered, "If the old man agrees to give up the position of leader, I will turn Fairy Tail into the true strongest guild...... However, the stubborn old man could not just give way. Just wait. ”

"See when they regret it. Laxus's eyes sparkled, "When the time comes, I can't help them." The tail of the fairy will surely be led by me to glory!"

"Yes, Laxus, you will make it. Fillid nodded in agreement.
