Chapter 16: Strange Sculptures

The mountain range thousands of miles away from the town is a relatively dangerous area, with monsters running rampant, there are not a few A-level beast kings, and there are many stronger monsters.

If you don't have a little strength, you can't move in this mountain range at all, and in terms of danger, it's much more dangerous than the mountain range near Magnolia Town.

However, if you can enter and leave here freely, the monsters can become a natural barrier.

Perhaps the previous magicians also found clues and came here to look for them.

Either he died at the hands of the monster, or he died at the hands of the Silver Crow.

Esther squatted on a large tree, using the trunk to hide his figure, and his aura had been restrained to the extreme.

Under the tree, a beastmaster slowly made his way forward.

Esther didn't want to fight this guy, and if there was a fight, it would be easy to attract other monsters here.

Esther is not afraid, but a large-scale battle will inevitably alarm the guys of the "Silver Crow", and he will be exposed at that time, which is not in line with his infiltration plan.

After the Beastmaster had passed, Esther moved on.

……

Hundreds of miles away from the mountains, a cave mouth exudes a faint luster.

The cave is deep and leads to the depths.

At the end of the cave is a huge underground cavern that can accommodate hundreds of people without being crowded.

In the deepest part of the cave is a three-story altar with a sculpture erected on it.

The sculpture is not human-shaped, with three eyes, a curved head, and bat-like wings on its back.

On the chest of the sculpture, there is a crystal that exudes a faint glow with a hint of blood.

Around the altar, at regular intervals, there is a crouching bat sculpture, with a blazier burning above its head.

In the cave, there are more than 100 people, roughly divided into three classes.

At the front is a man wearing a silver crow mask, and the whole person is hidden in a silver-white robe, and it is impossible to distinguish between men, women, and children.

Behind him were thirty-three men, dressed in silver-gray masks, but not wearing the wide cloak as the people at the front.

Finally, there was a ten-by-ten square, a total of 100 people, all of whom wore one of the three masks of gray, white, and black.

This is where the members of the Silver Raven come in.

Except for the silver crows, the missing children were kept in cages on both sides.

One by one, the children were curled up in their cages, their eyes dead as if they had lost hope.

The stench was terrible, but it only permeated the cage area, and the passage of spread was cut off by magic.

"President, the recent investigation by the Senate has been relatively tight, and it has been difficult to catch the sacrifices." One member spoke.

"Don't worry, we still have some sacrifices, it's a big deal to wait for the rumors to pass!" Silver Crow said indifferently, "It's really not good, let's go to a farther place!" ”

"By the way, boss, that little ghost has appeared!" Then another person spoke, "It is said that the guy is back in Fairy Tail!" ”

"Is it finally there?" I couldn't see the look under the mask, but the exposed eyes had a blood light that didn't look like a human and vertical pupils.

"Take a third of the people, go and stare at each other, as long as the other party comes out, just do it, the artifact is not something that a ghost can have!"

"Don't worry, boss, now we have thirty-three S-class magicians, and we can still be afraid of him alone.

Even if Makarov's old ghost makes a move, we are not afraid. ”

An S-class magician spoke.

"No, if you meet Makarov's old immortal, run directly.

Thirty-three of you together can't help that old immortal.

The Holy Ten is not just for fun.

The last position of the Holy Ten, it's good to say, Makarov's old immortal is the first to get the Holy Ten, and his strength is quite terrifying, at least much stronger than me.

Silver Crow said indifferently, "But it won't be long before I can have the power to surpass the Holy Ten, and at that time, the whole world will definitely belong to us!" ”

There was fanaticism and madness in the eyes of the silver crow, "We will surely become the ruler of the world, the god of all things, of all people!" ”

All the members of the Silver Raven chanted, their voices fanatical, like a bunch of fanatics, or madmen.

……

Esther, who was looking for the cave where it was located, suddenly stopped, time went crazy on his body, and he jumped onto a tree.

Nearly forty people, quickly moving forward.

They didn't hide or hide in the slightest, and they moved forward fearlessly.

To Esther's surprise, the monsters ran away directly when they encountered them, even the A-level beastmaster turned around and ran.

It's as if they're higher-level monsters, and they're human.

"No, their breath has a human character, but more of an inhuman breath.

And they give me a very strange feeling, obviously I feel that my strength is not low, but there is an illusory feeling.

Odd! ”

Esther turned her head to look in the direction they were coming from, and there was a good chance that the cave was over there.

Then he turned his gaze to the thirty or so people in front of him.

These are the people of the "Silver Crow", and there is a high probability that the beast wants to catch the child.

Esther hesitated, then turned and chased after the thirty-odd men.

You can't let them catch the children anymore, otherwise if something happens, you may not be able to protect them.

In the mountains, Esther didn't move, but he didn't follow him.

Soon the group left the mountains, but unexpectedly they did not go to the town, but from the wilderness, in one direction.

"In that direction, it's the town of Magnoria.

These guys are going to Magnolia to catch the kids.

No, it's not worth it, it's too far away.

Their goal is me! ”

Esther came back to his senses, Magnolia was a child, and the only one who could attract their attention was herself, or rather herself with the artifact.

There was nothing to hide when he came back, and Silver Crow knew it was normal for him to come back.

Esther estimates that not only the silver crow, but also other guilds are most likely aware of it.

They must not be allowed to go to Magnolia Town, or who knows what crazy things these lunatics will do.

Esther quietly appeared above the group.

Time kept twisting on him, putting him in a different time from the group below, insulating them from their perception.

The cangyan on Esther's body continued to condense and compress, and slowly gathered into his hand, under the characteristics of "infinite magic", the small Cangyan fireball in this hand has continued a large amount of magic power, but Esther feels that it is not enough, and he is still constantly entering.

When all the mana equivalent to an ordinary saint-level mage was gathered, Aster's expression also became solemn and no longer increased.

He couldn't control the fireball a little bit.
