Alok stood up again, causing the 'Demon Tail' and the other magicians to frown.

"The guy got up again?"

"Didn't that Laxus punch finish him off just now?"

"It's not an accident, at least it's worth that magic."

Makarov looked at Mebis beside him and asked, "First generation, can you see his details?" ”

"It's not close!"

Mebis's emerald green eyes were fixed on the figures in the arena, searching, sifting, and searching through the databases in their minds in an attempt to find the relevant type of magic.

"Although the attack just now is exquisite, it is not an uncommon magic, and he obviously hasn't shown his true strength yet!"

Makarov nodded, not talking.

Kira glanced at Mebis, thinking that the database in her head was probably being contaminated.

On the field......

Facing Aloke, who threatened to pay the price, Laxus had a strange expression: "Pay the price? Do you mean you want me to look good? ”

"Hehehe...... You'll soon find out! ”

Laxus frowned, he didn't have the slightest carelessness, and once again cheered up and became vigilant.

Judging from the temptation just now, the opponent's melee ability is vulnerable, but the magic power is real, that is to say, the opponent's magic is either very powerful, like Gildas, which exerts a magic to the extreme, or it is very weird, like Brantish and Timaria, which can catch most people off guard!

"No matter what kind of magic you use, as long as I knock you down first, I'll win!"

Thinking of this, Laxus no longer hesitated, and was ready to take advantage of the victory to pursue and end the battle in one fell swoop.

As if with a bullet under his feet, Laxus jumped to his feet and attacked with his fist again, but this time Aloke's response was different, and when he waved his staff, he no longer used magic cannonballs, but rows of transparent magic barriers like glass.

Winter!

Laxus's fist was blocked by the barrier, and a low, rapid thud was heard, and the barrier was extremely strong and not easily broken.

"Strange ......"

Seeing that the opponent's barrier blocked Laxus's attack, Kira's heart was full of doubts, "Does that guy's magic barrier have this level of defense?" ”

I clearly remember that in the 'Return of the Demon Tail Chapter', this move Natsu can be broken with brute force alone! Could it be that Natsu at that stage can be stronger than Laxus at this stage?

No way! When pigs fly!

At this moment, Mebius's affirmative voice came out of his ears: "It's the price of summoning magic!" ”

"The price of summoning magic? What is that?? Habi Tikira asked the question he wanted to ask.

"It's an ancient forbidden magic!"

Mebis thought for a moment, and after sorting out his words a little, he said, "A sorcerer makes a contract with something, or a creature, and if he 'loses' something, he can summon it for his own use at will. ”

"Contract...... Is it the same as astral magic? Lucy asked with a frown, obviously concerned about the 'price' in Mebis's mouth.

"There are commonalities, but not all the same!"

Mebis glanced at the key on Lucy's waist and said, "Lucy's star spirit is unique, right?" But that's not the case with the price summoning magic! This magic can be summoned to more than one object, for example, the barrier he is using now comes from the same contract, but the degree of 'loss' when summoned is different. ”

Lucy asked, "Then why do you say it's forbidden magic?" ”

"Because ......"

"Because the core of this magic is 'sacrifice'!"

Kira interrupted Mebis with a sudden voice and preemptively explained, "When using this magic, the more and more important things the sorcerer loses, the stronger the object will be!" Right? ”

He looked at Mebis with a (* ̄) ̄) smile on his face.

“￣へ￣…… Yes. ”

Can't you just let me show me my erudition? He interrupted me...... Today's children are so uncute!

Mebis was a little unhappy.

Kira didn't care, just explained to herself, "You all know, I made a 'Monster Summoning' type card for Kana before, right? ”

"Uh-huh......"

"That's right! That's the 'calling' too! Is there any connection between the two? ”

Everyone was curious and looked at Kana...... Kana was so drunk that she probably couldn't ask anything, so she looked at Kira again.

Seeing that everyone was so studious, Kira was very relieved, and generously popularized science: "The concept of magic with 'sacrifice' as the core is one of the initial magic theories that magicians thought a long time ago. ”

"It's often called 'Summoning Magic', but of course, some people found it too awkward, so there were a series of other names such as 'Sacrificial Stream', 'Insurance Stream', 'Sacrificial Stream' and 'Self-Harm Stream'......"

Crowd (?w?) "Oooh...... I see!

”

Mebis (?_?) ：“……”

Why have I never heard of these names?! The 'some' you call are yourself!

"The magic of the 'summoning system' that is popular now is actually the derivative magic of the 'price summoning', and the same is true of the 'Warcraft card' I made."

In order to make it easier for this group of listeners to understand, Kira began to use herself as an example and said: "When summoning a demonic beast, the user needs to pay a large amount of mana at once, and when controlling the demonic beast, the user's mental power is consumed relatively large. ”

"That's the 'price'!"

"The cost can be permanent or temporary, and magic and spiritual power belong to the latter; There is also a difference between permanent and temporary summoning rights, depending on the cost of the contract. ”

"Under normal circumstances, the 'price' of gaining power is generally set as 'magic power' and 'spiritual power', which can be restored and is in line with the magician's cultivation system."

Speaking of this, Kira's tone suddenly changed: "But some people don't do it this way!" ”

"Because the power obtained by sacrificing magic is too weak, there are some people with extreme temperaments and even falling into darkness, in order to get the so-called power, they choose to pay more."

"Blood, hair, countenance, limbs, senses, talents, instincts, reason, longevity, faith, freedom, emotion, soul, life, memory, existence...... All of this can be a price! ”

"And through the sacrifice of these powerful forces, it is easy to make people go to extremes and become uncontrollable!"

Grunt......

The more they listened, the more serious they became, and after hearing the series of examples given by Kira, they immediately thought of the horror of this magic, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva and suppress their shock.

Suddenly, several people looked at Makarov's Mediterranean, and an incredible thought came to their minds: "Do you say...... Hair that will grow long...... No way?! ”

Makarov looked confused: "?? ”

"What do you think I'm doing? I've never used this type of magic!

”

Everyone nodded again and again: "Ah, yes, yes, yes......"

"That's right! As you guys think! ”

"Nani?! President, you are indeed ......"

"Not really!

”

"Ahem...... Listen to me!

”

Kira's voice suddenly became eerie: "In order to become stronger, many magicians have signed contracts with powerful demonic beasts or demons at the cost of some important things on their bodies, and have obtained the power to drive them at will, so there is a saying of 'self-mutilation'. ”

"There are even some more cruel people who choose to sacrifice their lives!"

"Isn't there often news like this? Some dark guild slaughtered the entire town, and in exchange for it, summoned a demon or being named Jelf......"

Everyone: "......"

You're talking about Presitto, right? It's almost time to name names!

"Pigs, cows, sheep, fish and other livestock used in sacrifices actually have a similar effect!"

"And then, there is no shortage of such people in history."

"They thought they were sane enough and self-controlled, so they chose to sacrifice other types of beings, such as powerful monsters, in exchange for power. But most of these people will not stop at sacrificing magical beasts, but will continue to search for more types of life, and in the process, their minds will be consumed by darkness, and by the time they realize that something is wrong, it will be too late. ”

Saying this, Kira sighed and admonished in a tone of 'I'm from here, listen to me': "So, don't ever think you can control it, just try something you shouldn't do!" ”

Seeing everyone's serious faces, each bowing their heads and thinking about something, Kira was quite satisfied and nodded secretly.

Not bad...... Recently, my mouth has improved, and I am getting more and more like a president!

Syllable!

Feeling that the atmosphere had become heavy, Kira suddenly slapped her palms, attracting the attention of several people: "By the way, this kind of thing must be useful for the contract to be established, so what wisdom teeth, pimples, leftover fish bones, and can't be released, all of them are useless!" ”

"Who's going to use that kind of thing?!

”xn

Natsu, Harpy, and Lucy collapsed with regret at the same time: "Huh?! Doesn't it work?? What a pity!

”

"Are you really thinking about that?!
