Chapter 669: White-hot
The 'Crow's Tail' position.
Seeing Narubudingku defeated and falling into the water, Ivan's face looked as ugly as if he had eaten nine turns of large intestine, and he didn't even care whether the staff would rescue him or not.
"What on earth is that idiot doing?! He can be killed in reverse? What a loser!!"
As he said this, he turned his head and looked at the black snake beside him, which was wrapped in bandages all over, and snorted angrily.
This is also trash!!
Ivan was in a very bad mood because the contestants had lost for two consecutive days. But what made him even worse was the petite loli in white who was jumping around lively in the Fairy Tail camp in his sight.
"What's going on?"
"If I remember correctly, that person should be the one I saw in the basement..."
"How did she survive?"
"Has the old man already activated Lumen Radiance?"
Ivan lowered his head and fell into deep thought, not even caring about the guild members who fell into the lake and were frozen.
Such an indifferent attitude made the other people in the team frown.
Even if it was a dark guild in its former form, the companions worked hard, but the president had no scruples about scolding them in front of others. Isn't this too inhumane?
Braya and Jerome looked at each other and saw the dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.
The two of them were originally lone travelers in the dark world, similar to mercenaries. They had been active in Yalock's territory before, and this time they were invited to form a team.
As the dark guilds had been purged vigorously by the "Witch's Sin" in the past two years, it had become difficult for lone travelers to survive, so they had long wanted to find a larger guild to join, and that's why they accepted the invitation from the "Crow's Tail".
But now, the two of them have already thought about leaving.
Then they turned their attention to Yaluo in the team. In their opinion, this priest-like talent was the most promising in the guild.
As for that Brian?
Who would want to follow a guy who has split personality and whose second personality is like a madman who only knows how to destroy things? !
Alok and Brian didn't react to Ivan's attitude, because Narubdinku and Black Snake were both Ivan's subordinates, so no matter how Ivan insulted them, Alok and Brian didn't care.
These three people were not originally in a superior-subordinate relationship, but rather an alliance within the Dark Guild, which was of the same nature as the original "Balram Alliance", except that they were weaker in strength.
This time, they integrated their forces together for the purpose of the competition.
As for why Ivan was chosen as the guild president, it was of course because the competition rules prohibited the president from participating, and Ivan was the weakest among the three of them, so this was a good opportunity for him.
On the other side, Erza didn't even look at Narubudingku who fell into the water. She didn't even know his name. Anyway, it was enough for her to know that he was the "Tail of the Crow".
Although there was a grudge between the two guilds, Erza would not go out of her way to attack them, as that would be too cheap; now that the other party came to her on their own accord to get killed, she was relaxed and just chopped them down with a single blow without any effort at all.
"Forget it, the focus now is Jura!"
With a graceful step, her body landed lightly on the frozen stone pillar. Erza turned her gaze again to Jura not far away. The other's bald head was particularly bright due to the reflection of the ice surface.
Hmm? This angle is not good, it's a bit blinding...
That's right! Is this the 'balder you are, stronger' theory that Kira always talks about? I thought he was just joking with the president, but he didn't expect it to be true?!
Fortunately, my right eye is a prosthetic eye, so the damage I took was reduced by half!
Jura didn't expect that the greatest damage he had caused to Erza so far was by the reflection of his head.
“Go on!”
In the stands, the spectators had a panoramic view of the changes in the situation of this naval battle.
According to traditional rules, there is no winner in the first round. In the second round, Erza increases her popularity and winning rate, so in the third round, it is very likely that Jura will regain the advantage.
But this is not a fighting match. In addition to Erza and Jura, there are two other arenas and four opponents. The battle situation is far more complicated than normal.
Before Erza and Jura could resume the fight, Siduo on the other side had already knocked Ivan into the water.
In front of the White Dragon Slayer Magic, the Snow Magic was only a way to get killed. Even the announcer who didn't know magic could see that. If it weren't for Narubdinku's presumptuous sneak attack on Erza, Ivan would have been the next person to be eliminated.
At this point, the four-person battle in the outer circle of the battlefield ended, and the final winner was Siduo from the 'Heart of the Dragon', who became the only player to join the 'Holy Level Ten Battle'.
But this also means that her game is about to end, because a wizard who has implanted the Dragon Slayer Crystal for less than two years has an overall strength level of only A at most. If she hadn't happened to meet Ivan, whose attributes were restrained by her, Siduo would not have won at all.
With such strength, it is naturally impossible to gain any benefits in battles at the same level as Jura, Erza, Inbel, and Ultear.
Facts proved that this was indeed the case. When Siduo's feet just stepped into the battle circle of Urrutia and Inbel, she was immediately frozen into an ice cube by Inbel's cold air, and then quickly fell into the water.
"Is the gap really too big?"
“What a pity!”
At the 'Heart of the Dragon' position, a group of second-generation dragon slayers felt sorry for their new comrade who had fallen into the water. Only the eldest brother Silver was complaining angrily.
"Really? What on earth was Siduo doing? Wasn't she supposed to promote our newly invented magic weapon? And she's eliminated now?"
The team's cute pet, Black Hat Nicol, wagged his tail and said, "Forget it, forget it. The weapons you developed aren't any good anyway. They're not as useful as magic."
"What did you say?!"
Silver was immediately displeased and punched the black cat on the head. "You actually said that my weapon is not as good as magic? Think about where the money for your food, drink and accommodation these two days came from! It was all earned from selling weapons!"
As the head of the guild and the only money-making machine, Silver can be said to be both a father and a mother, taking care of this family of disobedient kids.
Although the other people all have the title of research scholars, none of them has been able to produce anything useful over the years, and they all rely on him for their livelihood.
After waiting for so long for the 'Great Demon Fighting Games', I thought I could take the opportunity to sell a wave of new technologies, but in the end, I was the one left out and no one took the matter seriously .
"If the Kingdom of Fiore wasn't a neutral country, my magic weapons would definitely be a best-seller!"
Twenty minutes passed and the game came to the final stage. At this time, the four people no longer fought in pairs, but fought together.
Rocks and ice were constantly created, chopped off, and collapsed in the elusive cold light of a knife and the invisible passage of time, forming horrifying scenes of landslides, earthquakes, wind and snow.
“Yanshan!!”
"cut!!"
"Ice Absolute Divine Cloth!!"
“Time afterimage!!”
Jura stomped his clogs hard, put his hands together, and summoned a rock giant that looked like a god of war. He was majestic and his rock punch was unstoppable. Erza wore the armor of the Ice Emperor and held the magic sword Hongying. She looked heroic. Neither rock nor ice could stop her beautiful sword.
Inbel created a divine robe of ice to cover his body, freezing and shattering everything it touched; Urrutia's figure kept flashing and jumping, leading the rocks and ice in front of her to the past or future, and at the same time created powerful ice roses to decorate the battlefield.
Fairy Queen, Rock God of War, Ice Knight, and Goddess of Time, these four nicknames are praised by the audience.
Of course, there are nicknames like "Rock Fist Bald Man", "Ai Yidao", "Cold Glasses Boy", "Honkai Girl", etc., but those were all given by vulgar and uncultured people and are not worth mentioning.
These nicknames are easy to understand. As for why a beauty like Urrutia is called "Honkai Ninja", it is all because of her ability to instantly age rocks into ash, sublime ice into gas, and liquefy into water.
The four men fought until there was no good water under their feet. It was either hard, yellow rocks or glaciers that changed between soft and hard. The original lake appearance was long gone.
"How will the game end now? There's no water under our feet, and the four people fighting seem very strong..."
On the judges' stand, the announcer had a gloomy face because his commentary could no longer keep up with the speed of the four people's spellcasting and attacks. He even suspected that he might not be the host of the next 'Great Demon Fighting Show'.
"Don't worry, they are playing very seriously, so it will be over soon!"
"Huh? Why is this??"
Yajima said nothing, but just watched the four people on the field quietly.
On the battlefield, Jura controlled the rock and punched it hard. Erza cut it off with a knife. In the blink of an eye, the blade was frozen into ice by Inbel. The next second, the ice dissipated as if it had never existed. It was Urrutia who used the arc of time to turn it into the future after evaporation. Urrutia's figure was pierced by the stone pillar that rose from the ground. The afterimage dissipated, and the stone pillar aged and disintegrated into pieces, attacking in all directions, and was frozen again in an instant. With a flash of the knife, it all scattered into scattered ice crystals...
The four of them fought continuously. They had just resolved the opponent's attack in the previous second, and the attacks of others followed one after another, making the battle on the second day of the Great Demon Fighting Exercise reach a white-hot level.
