The moonlight was shining, and the sloping shadows of the tower were covered with dense black tentacles that were about to move. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info Fuko just glanced at it, and he knew that he was completely surrounded.

Using the last layer of [Putrefinage Potion], he finally completely removed the paralyzing toxin from his body. He stroked his still sore and aching muscles and joints, and called up the system interface.

[4 minutes and 28 seconds left until the end of Infinite Fire mode]

[113 seconds left until the end of the hourglass cooldown]

He looked up again and stared at Gerald on the tower, observing. Gerald stood on the tower as if he had never heard of what was happening under the tower, like a stone statue, his whole body in the moonlight, but his face was shrouded in shadows.

I'm getting a little impatient.

Thinking back to the series of battles just now, Fuko came to this conclusion. Gerald's failure to guard against this was the result of Gerald's hidden hand, and he almost lost his life for nothing. Despite his Guardian Angel's resurrection effect, death is always unpopular, and he fears that if he consumes Guardian Angel, he will be killed before its cooldown runs out.

Fortunately, he also kept a hand of his own and used the [Zhongya Hourglass].

However, what should he do in this situation?

After a while, the tentacles seemed to realize his presence again, and slowly crawled from all directions, and the scene was as if a person was walking on the road, and countless poisonous snakes crawled around him.

[Absolute Zero]!

Extremely cold storms of ice and snow exploded around him, and the wind spread out, and the frost quickly froze the tentacles. He took the opportunity to use [Ghost Walk] to step on the frozen ice cubes and flip into the clearing behind them.

As soon as he landed, hundreds of tentacles and hands once again came out of his shadow, and it seemed that wherever there was a shadow, it was their passage doorway. He frowned, and a pillar of starlight tucked them back into the shadows.

The tentacles chased after him, making a terrible brushing sound on the ground, in the air, and on the walls, constantly stimulating his nerves. Now he didn't want to get close to Gerald, but the distance between him and Gerald was getting farther and farther away.

To add insult to injury, Gerald's level rose again at this point.

【Gerald (Level 52)】

At this time, because he was too concerned about his battlefield, he suddenly discovered that several sword lights were stabbing at him!

In fact, those sword lights passed over him, piercing into the tentacles like knights, rampage, chopping melons and vegetables, and Fukou was stunned for a while.

Dressed in the armor of family, Elusa flew above his head and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine."

Fuko looked down with a complicated expression, and he felt a deep sense of frustration, but in the end, he still couldn't stop them from seeing each other. Perhaps, this is fate, once he asks for something, he will never be satisfied.

It's not just Elusa who has arrived, but all the members of the Combine on the Moving Fortress have gathered here!

Gula raised her hands, and several rocks rose between the tentacles, then quickly detonated one after the other.

Natsu is carried into the air by Harpy, who wantonly eats the flames created by the rock blocks detonated by the Turtle. He shrank and spewed a huge fireball into the ground.

Gray works with Wendy and Charlotte on the other side. Wendy wasn't good at attacking, but the nature of Sky Slayer Dragon's magic made her magic inherently aggressive - it was magic specifically designed to deal with dragons - and she manipulated the flow of the atmosphere, which was equivalent to controlling the wind.

She wrestled her face and spewed out a storm with all her might, knocking the tentacles back. She almost danced with joy at this.

Gray was concentrating on creating an ice wall around the perimeter of several of them, blocking the tentacles' sudden attack.

Even the night that came out of nowhere, he strengthened himself with his own perfume, turned into a giant like the old man Makarov, picked up the huge things nearby and threw them to the tentacles.

"Fuko." As she continued to detonate the rocks, she asked, "What the hell are these?" Can you explain the current situation? ”

Fuko fired a [Devastating Shot] into the air, and the huge cannonball fell to the ground, instantly blasting a large hole, and the tentacles there were bombarded to nothing.

"That's one of the magic of the 'Ten Primordial Saint Wizards' Gerald Fernandis, and because of these things, I can't get close to him." Fuko thought for a moment and added, "Also, tentacles can emerge from the shadows every once in a while, so be careful." ”

Gray used his ice sword to cut off the tentacles that emerged from his shadow and froze them with large ice cubes, and he complained, "Fuko, you can remind you later!" ”

[Infinite Firepower Mode has ended]

Before the end of this mode, Fuko used [Healing] and [Clarity] in a row, restoring the life and magic of himself and Elusa beside him. Elusa felt the change in her body and nodded at him.

"Where is he?" She asked.

"[Insight]."

The place where Gerald was was immediately exposed for all to see. In the white light, Gerald stood there expressionless, his eyes unblinking.

"What's his state?" Elusa asked.

"I don't know. I suppose that in order to keep these tentacles alive, we have to make them like that, right? ”

"Is there anything else you haven't told us?"

"Huh? Well...... He now has two more terrifying magics, one is super-fast regeneration, and the physical damage caused by physical and magical attacks will be quickly recovered, and the other is mana absorption, he is absorbing the magic of the atmosphere, and these tentacles are also absorbing mana, with the help of which he is becoming stronger at an extremely fast rate. ”

Everyone gasped.

"Faster than you?" Natsu asked curiously.

"Much faster...... I'll give you an example, when I first met him, he was only at Natsu's level. But as he fought, he became Elusa. ”

"Hmph." Elusa was suddenly a little upset, and she said, "Why didn't you wait for us and just come over to deal with him?" If Richard, who wasn't one of the six demon generals just now, sacrificed himself to help us win a chance to resolve the battle in an instant, you would have been entangled to death by his tentacles by now! ”

Fuko was stunned for a moment, and looked at her.

"What's wrong?" Elusa couldn't help but ask, seeing that he had been looking at herself.

"Are you really Elusa? Are you sure you haven't been dropped by the Six Demon Generals? ”

"She's Elusa." "Her taste has always been like this, it hasn't changed," Natsu said. ”

Elusa also said strangely, "What exactly do you want to express, do I have any questions?" Ah, by the way, don't you change the subject, why did you come over and face Gerald alone without saying a word? Didn't I tell you? Don't go it alone, you can't be so lucky every time you win with the limit. ”

Listening to her mention "Gerald" so naturally, Fuko felt a little strange about him.

"Are you worried that if I meet Gerald, it will be difficult to do it?" She thought of something and asked with a somewhat ugly face.

He nodded honestly. He found himself like a naïve child in front of Elusa.

"Are you stupid?" She angrily shouted at Fuko, Natsu and the others were all startled by her sudden loud voice, and she said, "You still don't understand? Since that day, you rescued me and Simon from that hell, and a lot of things have been different. You are more important than him, especially you, you are more important. I won't make the same mistake again, because Gerald's few words of rhetoric have been deceived into not knowing anything, and the 'Queen of the Goblins' is not the kind of cowardly and incompetent person! ”

She said it righteously and without delay.

He was silent and stared at Elusa's face, finally calming down.

What...... In the end, am I worrying about nothing?

Indeed, I'm such a fool, so stupid that there is probably no one in the world who is more stupid than me.

He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Elusa, but I was too impulsive to take your feelings into account. Of course, you're also at fault, you sneaked away, didn't you have the same idea as me? ”

"Huh?" Pierced in her mind, Elusa blushed.

Elusa actually thinks about it like Fuko. She also doesn't want her partner to see Gerald again, as she doesn't know what Gerald will do to her partner. Beyond that, Gerald is her nightmare, and she needs to be redeemed herself.

Two men and women with "ghosts in their hearts" made almost identical decisions without any communication.

"Love! Peace of mind! Harpy smiled like a child in the air and said, "Elusa is ours!" ”

Elusa's face turned even redder and she glared at the Harpy with a sneering look. Natsu thought it was glaring at him, and was so frightened that she almost fell off Harpy's hand.

At this moment, the tentacles finally retreated under the successive attacks of the Gilla, and slowly shrank back to Gerald on top of the tower, and the tentacles that had absorbed enough mana replenished him with more mana.

【Gerald (Level 53)】

Gerald finally regained his movements. He twisted his neck and stared condescendingly at the Combine below, his eyes narrowing slightly when he saw Elusa.

He had heard Elusa just now, too.

He felt like he had been betrayed, his knuckles clattering. He tried his best to calm himself, and he said to himself, so what, I'm the inheritor of Jelf now, I'm not interested in it, what does she want and what does it matter to me?

It's just a pity that I couldn't create another infighting between those two dog men and women......

Now that the United Army has formed a situation of encircling and suppressing Gerald, he said unhurriedly: "You are all here, is it okay?" Nirvana hasn't stopped yet, do you know where it's going? I'm guessing someone has already seen it, yes, it's heading towards the 'Demon Cat's Lodge' guild, and the first big operation after the launch of Nirvana will be in that place! In addition, I would like to warn you that besides me, there is another enemy that you have not defeated. ”

Nirvana is heading to the location of the Demon Cat's Lodge, which is likely to be true from the panicked looks of Wendy and Xia Lulu. And in the second half of Gerald's sentence, Fukou also got a positive answer directly from the system.

【Brian (Level 54)】

Not only was that guy not completely defeated, but he also became so much stronger in this short period of time!
