Chapter Seventy-Three Reaches the Top of the Tower

"What's going on" Gray looked at the scene in front of him in amazement, and in the huge space inside the tower, a man who looked like an owl was swallowing Natsu into his stomach.

"The bird swallowed Natsu, Gray, save Natsu," Harpy said anxiously.

"I see, if Natsu is here, then Asho and they should have run into the warrior that Gerald mentioned, and I wonder what happened to Asho?" Gray whispered.

"Hey, I said you weren't chasing Hugh and Elusa, why are you here?" said Gray, looking at Simon as he stood by.

"Blocked by this guy," Simon said, pointing to the birdman standing in the inner space of the tower in the iron cage used to hold prisoners.

"How could Natsu be swallowed by this man?" asked Gray.

"After we heard what Gerald said about the game, we were about to fly directly to the top to find Gerald, but on the way we were blocked by this birdman, and Natsu got into a fight with him, who knew that this birdman knew Natsu's weakness, easily defeated Natsu, and then swallowed it," Harpy said.

"It's not that simple to be swallowed by Uncle Ben, look at the flames," the birdman said, patting his stomach, and then spat out a hot flame from his mouth at Gray, and it is worth noting that a strand of hair on its head turned cherry red.

Gray picked up Harpy and flashed to the side, looking at the birdman in surprise.

"It's Natsu's Flame ......," Simon said in shock.

"That's right, once he is eaten by Uncle Ben, his magic will belong to Uncle Ben, and in another ten minutes, the fire dragon will be digested by Uncle Ben," the birdman said.

"Is this the owl of the three crows?" said Simon, shocked.

"Gray, save Natsu, please" Harpy heard the owl say that Natsu would be digested in another ten minutes, and immediately cried nervously in Gray's arms.

"Yes, I'll save Natsu, really, the one who always gets into trouble," Gray said dissatisfied.

Gray put down Harpy and jumped in front of the owl, "In that case, then I'll clean up the mess" Gray said as he looked at the owl.

"ICEMAKE Ice Gun," Gray shouted, sending out several ice guns to attack the owl.

"It's useless, the roar of the fire dragon" Owl roared, and a magic array different from Natsu appeared next to Owl's mouth, and then a huge flame erupted from Owl's mouth, and the ice spear sent out by Gray was instantly dispersed by the flames, and Gray himself was engulfed by a huge pillar of fire.

"Gray, dodge, his flames are on the same level as Natsu," Simon shouted.

"Gray......" Harpy also shouted, looking worriedly at Gray who was engulfed in the pillar of fire.

"Lord Gray, Jubia is here to save you" Suddenly Jubia's voice sounded, leaving Simon and Harpy stunned.

Then a cloud of water fell from the sky, spewing flames from the pouncer.

The water pounced on the flames and made a "bang" sound, which was the sound of water vaporizing.

"Ahh

"It's so messy, it turns directly into water against the same level of fire as the fire dragon, it's completely like hitting an egg against a stone," Simon said.

"Damned" Gray's voice rang out in the flames.

"As a companion of the fire dragon, you should know the power of this flame, give up resistance, and let me destroy you in the name of justice," Owl shouted to Gray in the flames as he breathed fire.

"No kidding, how can this level of flame be Natsu's flame, you impostor, freeze it for me" Gray's voice sounded in the flames, and the flames spewed out by Gray with a shout were actually frozen and dissipated by the ice in an instant, this is because at this moment, the temperature of Gray's ice far exceeded the temperature of the flames, making the flames unable to burn.

"The flames are frozen, really...... It's amazing," Simon looked at the scene with a shocked expression.

"Hey, Jubia, are you alright?" asked Gray, looking at the iron dragon behind him.

"Jubia is fine," Jubia said as she crawled out of the cage, but there was a trace of blood on her body, apparently she had been injured in the collision just now.

"Fire has some strong restraint ability for water, although water can also restrain fire, but because of that kind of flame, water is completely weak, so Rain Girl will be injured by a blow, but ice, which is more offensive than water, is completely capable of restraining fire" Simon looked at Gray and analyzed.

"Didn't you tell you to go to Ashu, why did you come back?" said Gray, looking at Jubia.

"That, that, because ...... Because "Jubia looked at Gray's angry face and didn't know what to say, he wanted to make things clear, but he was afraid that he would be scolded, so he had to stop talking about it for the time being.

"Your magic is also very good, you can actually seal the flames, and your magic will be given to me," Owl looked at Gray and said, and the figure disappeared in front of Gray in an instant.

Gray was startled, and because he didn't have time to react because he looked at Jubia, he was swallowed by the owl's wide open mouth, leaving only his lower body outside.

Jubia Simon and Harpy watched in shock, they didn't expect the owl to swallow the second person.

"Lord Gray," Jubia shouted, trying to rush over to help Gray but couldn't do it for a moment because of the impact.

Just when everyone thought that Gray would be swallowed by the owl, a layer of ice formed in the owl's mouth.

"Good ice, good ice," the owl suddenly shouted.

Gray also took this opportunity to escape from the owl's mouth.

"Now is not the time to stay here, we need to find Elusa quickly," Gray said with an angry look on his face.

With Gray's shouting, he rushed towards the owl again, but was repelled by the owl once.

"You get out of here" Gray shouted again, a cold breath appeared around him, Gray's arm out of two ice blades appeared, Gray rushed at the owl again "Ice Blade.Seven Dances" The ice blade instantly slashed on the owl's body seven times in a row, and seven deep wounds on the owl's chest appeared, and an object fell on the iron prison in the owl's mouth, and Natsu was spit out.

The owl knocked down the iron prison, and the iron prison broke the rope in time, and fell straight down with the owl.

"Win," Simon said in surprise.

"Natsu," Harpy shouted as he flew over to Natsu, who was spit out.

Natsu collapsed on the iron prison with an uncomfortable face, and the "dizzy" Natsu's weak voice rang out.

"Gotta get to Elusa," Gray's voice rang out, and Gray fell to the ground.

"Lord Gray," Jubia shouted worriedly as he jumped up to Gray.

"I'm fine, I need to get to Elusa quickly," Gray said.

"But you're hurt," Jubia said worriedly.

"This injury is nothing, compared to Elusa who is always crying alone," Gray whispered.

"Uh," Jubia looked at Gray's expression in surprise, understanding something.

"Rest assured, you can sense from the fire spirit that Ashu is at the top of the tower," Jubia said.

"What do you mean, Ashu is at the top of the tower?" Gray was startled.

"Well, that's why I'm following Master Gray," said Jubia.

"Could it be that Asho and Gerald are up to each other?" said Gray, surprised.

"No, it seems that Mr. Qin Xiu is controlled," Simon said at this time.

"What did you say?" Gray was shocked.

"Just now news came from Woolley that Miss Lucy had been discovered, and that Qin Xiu was now controlled by one of the three crows," Simon said.

"What about Lucy?" asked Gray.

"I asked Woolly and Miriana to take Lucy out of the tower, after all, the magic spirit is going to fall, and it's best to leave the tower," Simon said.

"Gray, Jubia, Harpy, you are also leaving the tower, it will be troublesome if the magic spirit power falls, I will take Natsu to the top of the tower, and I will also bring Mr. Qin Xiu down, you guys go quickly" Simon said, then lifted Natsu's back behind him and walked towards the top of the tower.

"Hey, hey," Gray shouted a few times, and Simon had already turned to leave.

"Damn, don't be so self-assertive, what can that guy Natsu do, how can Ashu be controlled" Gray scolded.

"Master Gray, I'll take you out," Jubia said, looking at Gray.

"What, you're hugging me?" Gray looked at Jubia dumbfounded.

"Don't worry, Jubia will treat Gray like his own baby, no, no, Jubia will treat Lord Gray like a doll...... No, no......" Jubia blushed and muttered to himself.

"Sounds horrible," Gray spitted.

Near the top of the tower, in a mahogany corridor, a woman dressed in a thick Dongying dress stood in the corridor holding a sword.

Hugh frowned and looked at the woman, "Who are you?" Hugh asked.

"My name is Turtledove, please advise," the woman named Turtledove said softly.

"Get out of here," Hugh shouted, and countless cards struck at the turtledove.

The turtledove's eyes flashed, and the sword he was holding flashed in the blink of an eye, and the cards that flew towards the turtledove were instantly cut open and scattered all over the ground.

"What?" Hugh was startled, and the next moment Hugh felt that his body was completely unable to move, and he fell straight to the ground, and a card slowly fell.

"My sword can cut everything, not clothes and flesh, only nerves, this is my moonless flow" said Ikarugya, who seemed to have fallen to the ground after being cut off by Idove.

"Hugh, let me out, you're no match for her," Elusa's voice came from the card.

"Sister, don't worry, the card is covered with a protective film, and you won't be harmed in any way," Hugh said.

"So Miss Elusa is here," Turtledove said as he spotted Elusa in the card, and drew his sword again and slashed at the card that trapped Elusa.

There was a "bang" sound on the card, and the sound of swords colliding sounded on the card, and I took a closer look at what Elusa had blocked with her sword in the card.

"Attacking through space," Hugh said in surprise.

"Not bad," Turtledove said, slashing at the card again, and the clash of swords continued to sound in the card, and with a clear explosion, a flash of golden light appeared in the golden light.

"Thanks to you, I wouldn't have been able to cut off the space," Elusa said, looking at the turtledove.

"Amazing, I can actually find an opportunity to cut off the space under the space attack and come out by myself, it is worthy of my sister," Hugh said in shock.

"Your name is Turtledove, isn't it? one of Gerald's three warriors?" Elusa asked.

"That's right, I'm the captain of the three crows, Turtledove, please advise," Turtledove saluted Elusa.

"Then you don't need to, you go away for me," Elusa said, and then Elusa was stunned, and the armor on her body instantly broke and scattered all over the ground, covering her arms and looking at the turtledove in surprise.

"Didn't you see the shadow of the sword around you when you were in a hurry to find Mr. Gerald?" said Turtledove.

"You're so talkative," Elusa said, looking at the turtledove dissatisfied, her eyes full of gloom.

"That's a good look, I'm just looking forward to this," Itardove said, looking at Elusa.

"Sister is serious," Hugh thought to himself when he saw Elusa's gloomy face.

Elusa's whole body flashed with golden light, and an armor instantly changed to Elusa's body.

Elusa changed into a knight's armor and rushed directly to the turtledove, who looked at Elusa and rushed over and smiled coldly.

"Moonless," Turtledove shouted in a low voice, and Elusa and Turtledove quickly slashed each other countless times.

"I actually fought with my sister," Hugh said in surprise.

"Tianlun, the sword of circulation" Elusa jumped up and sent out a dozen swords at the turtledove, but they were cut off by the turtledove one by one and fell to the ground.

Elusa let out a muffled grunt as she landed on the ground, and the knight's armor shattered.

"No Moon Stream, Garudayan," the turtledove shouted in a low voice, and a fierce ball of flame rushed towards Elusa.

Elusa looked at the rushing flames and changed her armor again.

After the flames dispersed, Elusa, dressed in fiery red armor, came into view.

"The Flame Emperor's armor can greatly reduce the damage of the flames, is that all?" said Miss Elusa," Ikaruga said, looking at Elusa.

As the turtledove's words fell, Elusa's Fire Emperor's armor burst open.

This time Elusa was slightly injured and knelt on one leg looking at the turtledove.

"Miss Elusa, if you don't take out your strongest armor then you're going to fall," Ikaruga said.

"In that case, then as you wish, the armor of Purgatory, no one has seen me take out this armor except Joseph, and no one has been able to stand up, you get out of the way" Elusa changed her outfit again, this is the armor that was changed against Joseph that time, but the weapon was replaced with something similar to a mace, and you can know that this weapon has a strong attack power at a glance.

Elusa roared angrily and rushed straight towards the turtledove again, and Elusa, who had changed into a purgatory armor, was much stronger than just now, and the armor did not shatter after several rounds of fighting with the turtledove, but the turtledove was repelled several meters by Elusa's blow.

Ikaruga steadied himself and laughed, "Is this your strongest armor?

As soon as the words fell, the almost invincible Purgatory Armor was actually shattered like the Knight's Armor and the Flame Emperor's Armor, and Elusa fell to the ground weakly.

Hugh looked at this scene in shock, and didn't dare to whisper confidently, "Sister, I can't beat her"

Hugh then shouted at Elusa, "Sister, you're the fairy queen, and you have a lot of powerful armor, take it out."

When Elusa heard this, she looked at Hugh and smiled, "Hugh, the armor is not the strongest, it is just used to protect yourself from harm, I have been wearing the armor since I left you eight years ago, you should understand"

Hugh was startled, and looked at Elusa in a daze, "Sister......" At this time, he remembered what Elusa said to her when he caught Elusa and went to see Elusa himself, "Hugh, let me go, don't worry, I won't run away, I just want to change my armor"

"Sister, you ......" Hugh's eyes were a little sour.

"Because of this, in order to avoid ignoring you, I secretly hid in the dark and wept alone, but not now, I don't need such a thing as armor, because I have to make a short deal with Gerald" Elusa slowly stood up and said, a flash of light flashed all over her body, and Elusa changed into a set of clothes.

The chest of the upper body is wrapped in a layer of cloth, the lower body is long cloth pants, and he holds a sword in each hand, looking at the turtledove.

"What kind of dress is this, Miss Elusa, can this cloth protect against my sword?, and is it a shame to dress in front of men," said Ikaruga.

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't need armor anymore, come on, fight it out," Elusa said, looking at the turtledove.

"This is exactly what I want" Ikaruga lowered her voice, holding the sword in her hand tightly, she also understood what Elusa was dressed for, giving up all defenses, just to attack, the two swords in Elusa's hand are swords that can gather magic power, at this time it has gathered Elusa's huge magic power, so that the sword that gathers magic power can withstand a lot of damage without shattering, and just like Ikaruga herself, she also wants to know who is stronger and who is weak when she has a hard fight with Elusa, the fairy queen of the Daimyo Peak.

The two jumped tacitly, and the moment they approached each other, they both slashed each other, and then withdrew the sword and kept it on the ground without moving, not knowing who won.

Suddenly, a crisp sound sounded, and one of the swords in Elusa's hand shattered, while the other was not broken, and there was still a trace of blood on it.

"What a beautiful sword" The turtledove's voice sounded, and then the turtledove fell to the ground, and some red blood stains could be seen from the clothes, which was injured by Elusa, one sword blocked the turtledove's attack, and the other sword injured the turtledove.

"Win," Hugh said in surprise.

"Don't rejoice too soon, Elusa, the fairy queen, I'm defeated, but you're both defeated, fifteen minutes to go," Turtledove's voice whispered.

"What do you mean," Elusa startled.

"Just wait fifteen minutes, and the light of justice will fall," Ikaruga whispered.

"Is it the magic elf power, Hugh, you quickly inform Simon and let everyone leave" Elusa said to Hugh.

"What about you, sister?" Hugh asked.

"I'm going to have a short deal with Gerald," Elusa said.

"Oh, do you think that Mr. Gerald is alone at the top of the tower? you are wrong, and your companion, but that companion is your enemy," said the turtledove's voice again.

"What?" said Elusa.

Hugh soon contacted Simon and told him about his situation.

"It's Ashu, is it controlled?Hugh, you leave quickly, I'm going up to save Ashu" Elusa said to Hugh, and immediately ran to the top of the tower.

Seeing this, Hugh had no choice but to turn around and run down, and by this time his body could already be controlled by himself.

On the sea outside the Tower of Paradise

A small boat floated on the surface of the sea, above which were Grejubia and Harpy from the tower, and Lucy was also there, as well as Woolley, Miliana, and Hugh, and when Hugh reached the bottom of the tower, several people immediately rowed to the surface of the sea, ready to hide from the magic elves.

"Get back to the boat, hurry," Gray shouted, but the crowd didn't say a word, just looked at the land that was getting farther and farther away, and Gray looked at Lucy, who was bowing her head as everyone looked silent.

"I said Lucy, you are the same, Ashu is controlled, you are not in a hurry" Gray looked at Lucy and said.

"Who said I'm not in a hurry, I'm more anxious than you, what's the use of being in such a hurry, I can only believe that he can succeed" Lucy said excitedly after hearing Gray's words, and her voice lowered after speaking.

"Success, what do you mean," Gray froze.

"Ah Xiu was not controlled, he was just pretending, in order to get close to Gerald, ready to give him a fatal blow," Lucy said.

"You're telling the truth?" said Gray, surprised.

"Well, I just don't know how Ashu is now," Lucy whispered.

"Then what do you say that Ah Xiu is controlled?" said Woolly in surprise.

"That's what Ah Xiu said, to hide it from you so that no one will find out that he is pretending, besides, I don't know if you are friend or foe at that time," Lucy said.

"It's just that I'm worried about Alusa and Natsu going up now, and if they go up, will it disrupt Asho's plan," Lucy said.

"In that case, I'm afraid Asho's plan will fail, because that Natsu guy is also there," Gray said.

"I'm most worried about the magic elves," Lucy said.

"Since Ashu has made this decision, then he has considered the magic elf power, he can fly and escape at any time, but Natsu and Elusa are ......," Gray said, and fell silent before he finished speaking.

"I believe in Nazi Ashu Elusa them, they won't die," Harpy's voice rang out.

Lucy was stunned for a moment, nodded in unison, and looked at the top of the towering Tower of Paradise.
