Chapter 259: Lucy Competes Again
On the morning of the fourth day of the Great Demon Martial Arts Exercise, it was still the same as the previous three days, the morning competitive game, the afternoon duel competition, and this was also the last competitive competition and duel match announced by the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts, Elusa found a difference from the first three days on the competition date announced by the organizer, the official competition date was only five days, and if you count the day of the preliminaries, it was only six days.
With questions, Elusa asked Macao and they learned that the time of the competition was indeed six days, and each guild would be given a day off before the finals, because this year's competition method was different from previous years, the day of the preliminaries was already regarded as a day, you must know that in previous years there was no preliminaries.
At this time, Elusa and the others realized that today was already the end of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Competition.
On the support platform of Fairy Tail, unlike the previous three days, there is one more repair here.
"Today's athletic event is naval battles, what kind of competition it is," Romeo said.
"The super big water polo above should be the playing field, it seems that it should be compared there, but the specific comparison is still unknown" Xia Lulu pointed to the super large water balloon suspended over the entire Domus Arena that everyone was watching.
"In that case, you should be able to guess which of us will play, Team A should be Lucy, Team B should be Jubia," Lishana said after a moment's thought.
"That's good for us, a star spirit who can control water, a natural water magician," Rebi said.
"That's how we have to win all the way to the final...... Come on, Jubia......" Harpy shouted.
"Hey, it seems like you've forgotten about Lucy," Lili said as he looked at Harpy.
"Didn't you hear that, too?" said Harpy, looking at Lili.
"......" Lili was speechless, "Is it my hallucination......"
"Don't care about this cat with a brain like a fish, it will lower your IQ if you follow it," Xia Lulu said helplessly.
Xiu, who watched this scene, laughed directly, he hadn't seen such a scene for seven years, and now looking at these incomparably lightness in his heart, this is something that he couldn't get in those seven years, and it was difficult to get even four hundred years ago.
Xiu turned his head to look at Mebis, who was sitting on the stone fence, and saw that she was smiling at the scene like himself, and his smile turned into a smile when he saw Xiu look at her.
"It's worth guarding, isn't it?" said Mebis.
"Yes, it's worth ......" Xiu nodded and smiled slightly, although these words were vague in the ears of others, but it was a very happy thing for Xiu and Mebis, both sides almost understood what the other wanted to get, Mebiste's purpose for leaving the island, and what Xiu was standing here for.
It didn't take long for Kabaddi on the commentary stage to announce the start of the fourth day of the competition, the host and commentator were still the same Kabaddi and Yajima, while the guest was replaced by a bearded and power-looking middle-aged man, according to Kabaddi, this middle-aged man is the head of Fiore's largest and most famous theatrical song and dance troupe, Sherzadeh.
Just like Xia Lulu and their conversation just now, the name of the game is naval battle, fight in that big water balloon, drive the opponent out of the magic water balloon, determine the ranking according to the order in which the water balloon is dropped, and then add a special rule until the last two people in the water balloon are left, if whoever falls out of the water polo within five minutes will be the last place.
Among the people who participated in this experience competition, it was really as Lishana said, Fairy Tail Team A is Lucy, Team B is Jubia, and the rest of the team is Cyan Pegasus is Jenny who lost to Mira, Snake Queen Scale is Shellia, Mermaid Heel is Resley, a chubby, slightly dark-skinned girl, Sabertooth Tiger is one of the top five Sabertooth Tiger in Mineba's place of Xueno, because the crow's tail has been cleared out of the game, so there is no longer them in the later games, and there is a team that is about to be ignored, four puppies, almost all of this guild are men, and the people sent out are naturally men, because the teams sent out are all women and they are also in swimsuits, in this case, even Kabaddi subconsciously ignored his existence and did not even introduce his name.
And so the race began after the gong sounded.
"I'm sorry, guys, I'm not going to repeat the same horror of the first game this time" Lucy shouted at everyone, although it was in the water polo, because the organizer applied magic to the water polo, so everyone could magically breathe and talk freely in the water except for some inconvenience in the water, of course, this magic was dispensable for Jubia.
Lucy took out the key to Aquarius directly, and since there was water all around, Lucy easily summoned Aqueia.
"It's the old lady's world in the water......" Akuiya shouted angrily as soon as she appeared.
"The other party is also a mermaid," Resli said with some surprise, can you not be surprised that a mermaid meets a mermaid.
"Aquaia, please get them all out," Lucy shouted as she hid behind Aqua.
"Get out of the way of the old lady......" With a shout from Akuiya, Akuiya raised the bottle in her hand and pointed it at everyone in front of her, and suddenly a waterspout in the water swirled in the entire water balloon.
In an instant, Jenny, Shellia, Resley, and the four-puppy contestant, who was closest to Lucy, were all involved.
However, when Akuia's waterspout asks Jubia after all, Jubia fights back.
"I won't lose, the water flow hurricane ......" Suddenly Jubia also sent out a waterspout and hit Akuiya's waterspout, Jubia is really the water element of the four elements of the ghost, and Aguia fought the water magic without falling behind.
Because of the evenly matched strength of Akuia and Jubia, the four players who were caught up in Akuia's attack took this opportunity to escape from the waterspout, hiding from afar and watching the two water-based magic powerhouses get into battle.
However, no one expected Jenny to make a move at this time, and surprisingly not easily, she directly lifted the water polo out of the four puppies who were watching Jubia and Aquia fight.
"Successfully take out the first ......," Jenny said triumphantly.
"The four puppies were the first to go out, but no one seemed to care, everyone was attracted by the girls in swimsuits, and it seemed that there were only four puppies ...... regret" Kabaddi shouted loudly, still not named as before, but better than just now, at least the four puppies were announced.
"What the hell am I out for...... the contestant of the four puppies screamed sadly as he lay on the ground without tears.
After seeing that Jenny had eliminated an opponent, Shirley gathered her hands and rushed towards Resli with a black wind, but a surprising scene appeared, the originally short and chubby Resli actually became tall and sexy in an instant, and because her body became slender and agile, she easily dodged Shirley's attack, and then was attacked by Jenny on the side, and Resli also immediately attacked Jenny, and under the two of them fighting, Shirley also joined the fight, and the three of them were stalemate for a while.
Akuiya and Jubia have also been in a stalemate, and it seems that it is difficult for the two sides to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, and Akuia's brows are slightly furrowed.
"There's no way to go on like this...... "Aquaia turned her head to look at Lucy.
"So?" said Lucy, a little confused.
"So I'll go back first...... Aquaya said.
"What, but you are the only one who has the most advantage in the water," Lucy said hurriedly, trying to keep Aqua.
"I have a date...... "Quiya looked at Lucy and said, after saying this, Quiya's voice softened a little, and then turned into golden light and disappeared in front of Lucy, which directly made Lucy dumbfounded.
"This is really unexpected, Aquaya actually went back because of a date," Kabaddi shouted excitedly.
"Because they're all girls...... Yajma laughed.
"Cut, it's boring......" Yet today's guest, Rabion, had a look of disdain in his eyes.
"Akuia is really as unreliable as before," Xiu laughed slowly on the support stage.
Due to Akuia's self-return, Lucy suddenly had no backstage, and looked at the somewhat stunned Jubia in the distance and laughed awkwardly.
"There is a chance to ......" Soon Jubia reacted, and the magic in his hand gathered a bigger and stronger water hurricane again and swept towards Lucy, Lucy reacted very quickly, and immediately summoned Aliyes, as soon as Aliyas appeared, a large pink wool wall appeared in the water balloon, and after seeing the soft wool wall blocking Jubia's water hurricane, Lucy also breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that Aliyes would not be able to block Jubia's attack just now, and now it seems that she is too worried.
When Jubia realized that the hurricane didn't have much effect on Arieth's wool wall, he stopped his attack and prepared to launch a more powerful move.
"Thanks to the liberation of the second source of mana, Jubia has mastered a new special move," Jubia said to Lucy.
"Let this trick prove Jubia's intentions, Wings of Love......" With Jubia's shout, the entire water balloon suddenly spun around Jubia.
"Mistress Gray...... LOVE......" Jubia also shouted loudly while releasing Jubia's own new special move.
"Stop......" At the same time, Gray, who heard this, blushed and shouted, why do you still say these things, at this moment Gray seemed to find that many eyes were staring at him, Gray began to break out in a cold sweat on his forehead, I remember that Elusa deliberately said this the night before, how could he not be clear about Jubia's intentions, but Jubia's usual "sneaky" The performance was too much for him to accept, and now he was talking about some kind of nonsense, and he felt like he wanted to dig a hole and get into it now.
Although the name of Jubia's new special move Love Wings is a little rotten, but the power is extremely strong, in just a second or two, Jenny Shiria and Resli were thrown out by Jubia, Lucy barely blocked Jubia's attack under Arieth's full defense, but she and Arieis's body is also moving out of the water balloon little by little, and there is one person who has not been thrown out of the water balloon by Jubia, that is, Mineba of the Sabertooth Tiger, so far her position has not moved, even under the attack of Jubia's Love Wings, her body exudes a strange light, it seems that this light blocked Jubia's attack, and her expression was very relaxed, not at all as laborious as Lucy and Arieth.
Jubia's attack lasted for ten seconds before slowly stopping, and the audience erupted in cheers.
"Jubia, who is incomparably powerful in the water, eliminated three opponents in an instant," Kabaddi's voice also shouted.
Listening to the faint voices of the audience around her, Jubia laughed, and she turned her head to look in the direction of Fairy Tail A.
"Lord Gray must have accepted Jubia's heart by now," Jubia said excitedly.
However, after zooming in through the water balloon to look at Gray in the distance, Jubia realizes that Gray is petrified.
"Scared off?" said Jubia's heart suddenly cooled.
However, this is the feeling of water oppression that Jubia found that there was no water around his body, and after coming back to his senses, he actually found that he was already outside the water balloon, and his body was actually stagnant in the air, as if he was supported by some force.
Jubia blinked his eyes a few times in confusion, and then the power disappeared, and his body fell to the ground in an instant.
"Jubia was very sad to be out of the tournament after a big event, but it could already finish third, and if you're lucky, you can get second," Kabaddi continued.
"How did Jubia come out?" said Rebi.
"Yes, suddenly outside the water polo," Lishana wondered.
"Space magic, it was the saber-toothed tiger player who did it......" Xiu said at this time.
"Space magic, that Mineba," everyone was taken aback when they heard Xiu's words.
"Well, it looks like Lucy has already lost......" Xiu nodded, and if it was him, he would have directly removed Lucy out of the water balloon.
"However, I'm a little puzzled why that Mineba didn't just move all the players off the field in the first place, wouldn't that be more convenient?" Xiu said with some confusion.
On the side of the saber-toothed tiger, Stinger looked at Mineba in the water polo and smiled faintly, "Originally, with the magic of the eldest lady, you can eliminate everyone in an instant, but it seems that the eldest lady thinks it's a little boring, hehe"
Stinger's self-talk inadvertently answered Xiu's doubts, and at this moment an hourglass appeared under the water balloon, and there was a countdown below it, which was the special rule that Kabaddi had said at the beginning.
"The five-minute countdown begins, and whoever drops the polo within five minutes will be the last one standing, and now the special race begins," Kabaddi announced, announcing the start of the special time trial.
After seeing this, Xiu seemed to understand something, "This is the purpose of that Mineba?" Xiu said with a slight frown.
At this time, Lucy in the water balloon had already let Ariyas go back, although her magic was restored, but her magic power was slightly less than before, and now there were no star spirits suitable for fighting in the water, and now the only way she could think of was to save a little magic now, and then see if she could find a chance to get Mineba out of the water balloon.
Lucy stayed in place and looked at Mineba vigilantly, although she didn't know the magic used by Mineba, but just now Jubia fell out of the water balloon silently, it should have been Mineba's doing, but then she still didn't know what Mineba's magic was.
"I can throw you out of the field in an instant with the magic of the concubine, but it's too boring, try to put up with it, Fairy Tail" Mineba said coldly as she looked at Lucy and stretched out her right hand to Lucy, with a strange glow on her palm.
At this moment, Lucy felt the fluctuation of magic behind her, and turned her head to see that a white light was moving in an irregular way not far behind her.
"What is this?" Lucy wondered.
"Stupid, get out of the way......" Just as Lucy was confused, a voice suddenly appeared in her head calling to herself.
"Ah Xiu?" Lucy was stunned, but before she could react, the white light behind her suddenly exploded, and suddenly Lucy felt an extremely hot heat enveloping her.
"Ah...... Scald...... Scalding ......" because it was too hot, Lucy couldn't help screaming, no matter who it was, if the water temperature was too low and too hot in the bath, she would scream, Lucy felt that she was almost ripe, and at this time her head was hit hard by something hard, the heat around her began to dissipate, and the water temperature quickly returned to normal, at this time Lucy's bare skin was a little red, which was scalded by the water temperature.
"Lucy, if you react faster, you can dodge the attack, don't say much, remember that the other party seems to have left you on purpose, and it is possible that you will continue to use the same attack on you as just now, as long as that white light appears, you have to quickly move away from the white light, don't think about defeating her, you are not her opponent" This is Lucy's voice sounded in her mind again.
"It was meant to remind me, but is it a foul to be found to be doing this?" Lucy said secretly in her heart, but when she looked at Mineba, she found that she was still looking at her coldly as just now, and knew that Xiu's reminder should not have been discovered by anyone, but this kind of reminder just told her what to do, and in the end, she still needs to play by herself.
"I really need to use the star spirit," Lucy whispered, and then touched her waist, to her surprise, she actually touched an empty space.
Lucy quickly looked down at her waist and found that her key was missing, and when she looked up at Mineba, she found that her key was in her hand.
"When was it taken away" Lucy's face changed suddenly, and then Mineba laughed and lost the key in her hand under Lucy's surprise.
"It's over, you can't use magic without the key, and there's no chance of winning at all," Xia Lulu cried.
"Even if you have a key, you don't have a chance of winning, that Mineba is just "playing", relying on space magic, she can easily throw Lucy out of the field, but now she doesn't" Xiu said, just now he specially reminded Lucy, I don't know if Lucy can make the right choice.
"So what now? Can't you win?" asked Harpy.
"The rules of this competitive competition are too advantageous for the magicians of the space department, and Lucy has no chance of winning," Xiu shook his head and said.
"How can this be......" Everyone looked a little disappointed.
At this time, Mineba, who didn't know where to get Lucy's key, began to attack Lucy again with exactly the same attack as just now, Lucy also remembered Xiu's reminder to swim away from the white light when she saw the white light appearing there, but the speed of swimming in the water was too slow, and Lucy was surrounded by the heat of the white light before she could swim much, and was scalded by the rapidly rising water temperature again, although she was scalded by the water, Lucy still swam towards the white light away from the burst of heat, but Lucy was attacked by something hard just now, and her body couldn't help but let her swim backwardsAfter being hit by this strange attack, Lucy also found that the heat was also gone, and it seemed that Mineba could not control both attack states at the same time.
"So I was deliberately left behind for such a thing" Lucy also began to understand Mineba's intentions.
"In that case, I'll put up with any attack on you," Lucy said as she looked at Mineba, who had already decided what she had decided, and then said the same thing to Mineba.
Mineba didn't care about Lucy's words at all, or beat Lucy back as she did just now, wait for Lucy to swim back and then continue to fight Lucy, Mineba's attack was not heavy, but barely able to hurt Lucy's skin, and couldn't hurt Lucy's muscles and bones at all, which showed that she was still a little measured, and time passed slowly.
"Alright, it's time to throw you off the field" Countdown to less than the last minute before Mineba stopped attacking.
"Let's let the horses come, although my strength in the guild is not strong, but it is not easy to get all the way to now, I will not admit defeat like last time, so I will definitely not give up this time...... Behind me, there are still expectations from everyone......" Lucy said loudly as she looked at Mineba, although Mineba's attack was not heavy, but the attack that lasted for a few minutes still caused Lucy to suffer a certain degree of skin trauma.
When Lucy said this, Mineba actually lost her mind, didn't know what she was thinking, didn't continue to attack and didn't move Lucy out of the field, and just like that, the hourglass under the water ball was over, and the five-minute time was over.
"It's five minutes, it's time to settle the final standings," Kabaddi's voice suddenly sounded, which meant that whoever dropped the water polo was not the last one to fall.
After hearing this news, everyone in Fairy Tail not only breathed a sigh of relief, although I don't know why Mineba didn't continue to attack Lucy just now, but in this way, Fairy Tail A will not be the last one this time.
"What are you kidding...... but at that moment Mineba roared, and a strange white light began to glow in her hands.
"Don't underestimate people, Fairy Tail" With a loud roar from Mineba, Mineba began to attack Lucy again.
"The strongest guild, the strongest guild in this world is the Sabertooth Tiger......" Lucy's body kept retreating under Mineba's attack, and soon drifted towards the water balloon.
"It's really over now" Lucy also knew that she was really over this time, the attack just now seemed to be Mineba's full attack, and under this kind of attack, she couldn't raise her strength to stabilize herself at this time, and she was indeed not Mineba's opponent as Xiu said.
However, just when Lucy was about to get out of the water balloon, a white light actually appeared behind Lucy, and in an instant, Lucy actually appeared in front of Mineba, and then was hit by Mineba's angry kick, this scene directly stunned everyone, and Xiu didn't expect this Mineba to act like this.
Then in the eyes of everyone, Mineba actually didn't let go of Lucy, and attacked Lucy, who had no strength to resist in the whole body, and attacked violently, maybe Lucy could lift her strength, Dakai could barely dodge this physical attack, but Lucy, who couldn't lift her strength at all, couldn't fall down in the water and could only be forced to bear Mineba's attack, this scene directly chilled many people's hearts, and Mineba, the saber-toothed tiger, did a little too much this time, and it was obvious that Mineba was really abusing Lucy.
However, the saber-toothed tiger laughed at this scene, and Elusa Nazgray gritted her teeth and looked at the saber-toothed tiger at this time, at this time they wanted to fly over the group that abused the saber-toothed tiger in the same way.
Shuya got up from his seat in the audience and walked to the fence of the support stand to get Lucy out, who seemed to have lost consciousness under Mineba's attack.
Just as Xiu was about to make a move, a tall white-armored knight somewhere in the Domus Arena shouted in a panic, "Stop the game immediately, the life of the Star Spirit Wizard is ......in danger if it goes on like this", and then the rapid gong sounded, which meant that the competitive competition was over.
After hearing the gong of the game in the water polo, Mineba also stopped attacking, smiled very proudly, stretched out the water polo with one hand, and this hand also pinched Lucy's neck, and Lucy's whole person was pinched by Mineba's neck to dry out of the water polo.
"The match is over, the winner, the saber-toothed tiger Mineba......" Kabaddi's voice was a little hurried.
Kabaddi's voice was followed by a figure suddenly appeared between the unconscious Lucy and the smiling Mineba, slapped Mineba's hand around Lucy's neck with one hand and slapped Mineba's hand directly into the water balloon, and then hugged Lucy with the other hand, and then the empty hand also nodded a little at the water balloon, and suddenly a surprising scene appeared, the huge water ball quickly froze, and in just a second or two, the water balloon became an ice ball, and Mineba was also frozen in the ice ball.
When everyone came back to their senses, they found that a teenager in a black power suit was holding an unconscious Lucy under the hockey puck, and there was a stunned Wendy standing next to her.
