Considering that the interval between the author's updates before and after the bacteria is too long, let's first review the previous situation:

As mentioned last time, the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts was held for the first time, with the participation of four guilds, including [Fairy Tail], [Snake Scales], [Cyan Pegasus], and [Four-Headed Hound]. At the beginning of the tournament, in order to test the skills of the magicians, the preliminaries were suddenly added. Only magicians who pass the preliminaries are eligible to enter the official competition.

…… And then there's the body......

"It's impossible for this kind of thin stone flakes to stop the goblins!The iron fist of the fire dragon!"

The crimson dragon flame exploded in an instant, and the thick rock wall was more than thirty centimeters long, and it was blasted into pieces before it even touched the fist. The heat wave from the explosion swept out, blowing the people in the audience into a hot sweat.

Ordinary people don't usually have the opportunity to see magic with such destructive power reaching this level, and they all opened their eyes wide, their hearts beat wildly, and they cheered excitedly.

"Okay!" Natsu clenched his fists and turned to the other two teams, "Let's go first!"

Seeing the three of them disappear into the passage, and the leaders of the other two teams of Fairy Tail glanced at each other, Elusa showed a doting smile: "Let him take the lead." ”

Then she picked up a sword and swung it a few times, and it was as if she had cut through the paper instead of the rock wall.

Lacasas said quite calmly: "There is no point in robbing this kind of thing." ”

Sticking out his finger, lightning flashed and thundered, and the rock wall collapsed with a bang.

"That's right. Elusa smiled and shook her head, "See you in the official competition." ”

The host who was so shocked that he lost his voice for a while... (Pumpkin) finally came back to his senses and yelled into the microphone, "Surprise... It's amazing! The magicians of the three teams of Fairy Tail all showed amazing destructive power and passed the preliminaries with great ease! It's amazing! It's worthy of the problem guild that was once famous for destroying public property! Sa, the other three union members, it's time to work hard!"

The audience's already boiling emotions were suddenly ignited, and they applauded with all their strength and shouted hoarsely.

Infected by this fanaticism, the captains of the three teams of the other three unions were also serious.

Snake Queen's scales, Gura: "Oh! Sure enough, this is the tail of the fairy!

The hardened rock tip easily carved a huge hole in the rock face.

Teal Pegasus, one night: "The long-lost aroma is still so hot!Power Perfume Max, eat me a punch!"

The strengthened fist shatters the rock wall with a single blow.

Four-headed hound, Pacas: "Cool!!It's been less than a year, and it's become so cool!

At first glance, it seems to be an unremarkable palm split, and the rock wall is actually perfectly slapped into a huge hollow in the shape of a palm.

The pumpkin host was excited again: "It's too ~ amazing! After the fairy tail, the teams of the other three unions also showed us extraordinary strength! Although it is not like the fairy tail that all the people pass, but in terms of strength, it is not weaker than them at all!"

"Presumably...... There's no way to make all the powerful magicians enjoy this level of preliminaries. So let's start the first round right away!"

"Today's contest part, the content is - break, puppet war!"

Twenty openings opened in the playing field, and twenty dolls of different patterns but the same shape were ejected from them. Judging by the fluctuations in the magic power on their bodies, there is no doubt that they are magic items.

"The rules are simple, two teams compete at a time, three in total. Each player on each side of the match can use any means and magic to destroy the dolls!When the number of puppets destroyed by one side reaches ten, the match ends! Both teams get the same number of puppets as they destroy! However, if both teams fail to achieve the goal of destroying ten dolls, then no matter how many puppets they have destroyed before, no points will be scored!

"Friendly reminder, there are a total of sixty dolls in the three competitions, all of which are sponsored by a powerful magician, and it is said that the strength of a single is comparable to that of an A-level magician!

When Pumpkin said this, the people in the audience of Fairy Tail almost subconsciously looked at Luo Xiu, and at the same time, their first reaction in their hearts:

"That's a puppet made by Uncle Luo Xiu. ”

"It should be sponsored by Uncle Luo Xiu. ”

"The style of that pattern, you can't be wrong, it must be Uncle Luo Xiu!"

Luo Xiu smiled and met their gaze: "Alas~ You don't watch the game to see what I do?Ah, don't you think those dolls are provided by me?"

Nodding nodding nod.

"You guys, how can you misunderstand me like this?" Luo Xiu sighed: "This is clearly what I did." Is there anyone else in this world who can make such a delicate thing except me?"

The eyes of the demon-tailed wizards in the audience widened: "!

Luo Xiu looked happy: "Actually, there is one more thing I haven't told that pumpkin - those puppets are at the level of A-level magicians, but in a group of ten, every time one is destroyed, the rest will become a little stronger." When the last one of the remaining groups is left, that puppet will have the strength to defeat S-class magicians~"

Seeing that the faces of the others changed, Luo Xiu added in time: "But don't worry, I have a good security setting, and I won't die~"

They naturally believe in Luo Xiu's ability, since they will not die, they can only pray silently for the participants in their hearts: I hope you will not be beaten too badly.

The first contestant entered.

Pumpkin announced: "The players are in! The red side is, Fairy Tail Team A - the magician known as the fire dragon, Na~ Z Doragnier!

Twenty magic puppets were activated, neither gold, nor wood nor stone, and the puppets that couldn't see the material at all, and at the same time exuded the magic power of A-level magicians, coupled with uniform movements, so that the two people who confronted them couldn't help but widen their eyes, and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Pumpkin: "Both sides are in place!

"Oh oh!!! I'm on fire!" Natsu intuitively understood the danger of these dolls, and immediately took it seriously. The magic control that Luo Xiu had trained had initially shown results - although he was now wrapped in flames all over his body, it was not a meaningless fire that would only float like before, but a dense covering of the body like dragon scales, forming a layer of fire dragon coat.

"It's really different. Gula could see the change in Natsu at a glance, compared to the time when he fought with him against the Six Demon Generals nearly a year ago, although Natsu seemed to have become weaker, his actual combat power was several times stronger.

The corners of Gula's mouth couldn't help but rise: "These puppets are also terrifying, so it's okay to be serious!"

"Oh roar~ are you just going to be serious?" In the audience, Luo Xiu took in the attitudes of the two: "Then you have to suffer a little." ”

The words fell, and the puppet moved!

Groups of ten, in unison, while sprinting quickly towards Natsu and Gula.

Natsu yelled and greeted him.

The magic of the doira flows all over her body, not moving like a mountain.

Seeing that it was about to be a hand-to-hand battle, two rows of small openings suddenly opened on the back of the puppet, and a violent air flow was sprayed from inside, accelerating instantly!

"Nani?!" "It's fast!"

Luo Xiu: "Built-in combat assist function one, instant acceleration." Store air, compress it, and blast it out when you need it for an explosive speed boost. It's a doll, so you don't have to worry about acceleration~"

Faced with the suddenly speeding up of the dolls, Natsu and Gula's bodies couldn't keep up with the speed of their brains.

Ten puppets swarmed up, two by two locked their hands and feet with joint techniques, one strangled their necks, and the last one hit them in the face! And with each punch, the puppet's elbow would be sprayed with air to accelerate!

No matter how hard Natsu and Gula tried, they couldn't break free with their own strength (joint technique suppression). And these puppets are all quite sensitive, once they use a little more magic, the nine puppets that control their bodies will suddenly put pressure on their joints, forcing them to give up the magic they are going to use, and they can't use it at all!

Luo Xiu: "Built-in combat assistance function two, martial arts program." It's a very rigid technique, and it's easy to deal with, but don't forget that you have ten opponents!"

The brutal back-to-back fist attacks lasted a full three minutes......

The audience was in a cold sweat, and in the end, the puppets suddenly stopped attacking, let go of the two, and returned to their original positions to stand.

Pumpkin came back to his senses: "Out, unexpected! The first game actually ended with the failure of two highly anticipated powerful magicians! Obviously, the strength of these puppets is even stronger than everyone thinks, so, again, please be careful!"

"Let's get ready for the second game!RED, Fairy Tail Team B - Elucin Queen, Elusa Shukaletto!BLUE, Four-Headed Hound - Pakas!"

Elusa and Pacas, who entered the venue, looked at the two people who were carried away by the medical staff from their side, with blue noses and swollen faces, and their eyes instantly became sharp: You must do your best!
