The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

The artificial lake used for the competition was surprisingly clear. Even though Kira was standing in the audience, he could still clearly see the white-gray stone bricks at the bottom of the water, and hundreds of stone pillars of different shapes scattered here and there. In the lake, it looks like a reef that has been eroded by sea water all year round.

The shape of the lake is circular, so the staff cut the circle into eight equal parts with irregular shapes but almost the same area, and then asked everyone to stand at the center of one of them, which resulted in their very special position when they started the war. , looking from top to bottom, there is a very comfortable sense of uniformity.

This is much better than simply cutting it into eight identical fan-shaped pieces and then having them stand in an octagonal shape.

And this seemingly even distribution of positions forced these contestants to be very alert, take into account their enemies in all directions during the battle, and be wary of their sneak attacks.

Those standing in the outer circle are fine. They only need to pay attention to the 180° fan-shaped area in front of them. Those standing in the center are miserable. There are people 360°. Although there are a few far away, it is not impossible to attack. arrive.

Mage is a profession that is good at long-range attacks!

"Who came up with this kind of stance? It's so unlikable!"

Urrutia was full of complaints at this time.

Looking around, the one closest to him is Jura directly in front of him, then Imber on the right, and Erza on the left in front. The other four are standing a little further away, but they are also spinning around in several directions. You can have a panoramic view of everyone’s location,

In fact, this position is clear to the authorities, and the audience is a bystander. Looking from top to bottom, they can clearly see the intention of the competition to have the eight players stand in this way - the stronger ones stand inside, and the weaker ones stand outside. !

In other words, this is a state of ‘four inside and four outside’.

As for how the competition determines the strength of the contestants, it mainly depends on their past records and current achievements.

Among these eight people, Jura ranks among the 'Holy Ten'. He is obviously the strongest, so in fact he should be the unlucky guy closest to the center of the lake. However, based on Urrutia's magic and resume, the competition team decided She was given a position alongside Jula.

(Urutiya: Someone must be setting me up! And it’s probably the old man sitting on top!)

(Yajima: Oh haha ​​~ It’s such an exciting game!)

Then there are the famous 'Fairy Queen' Erza, and Imber, who instantly froze the field yesterday. Their strength is only as strong as Urrutia's.

So the real position of this scene is actually: surrounded by four people outside, Jura, Erza, and Imber stand on three sides inside, and then Urrudia intervenes, turning into a battle between the three demons (guides). Jiula'.

In this game, the person with the greatest pressure is actually Jula!

In the entire venue, only people with enough intelligence like Kira and Mavis could see this, and then there was Jura who was in the middle of it himself. He might not be able to see the purpose of standing like this, but he could definitely feel the coming from him. Pressure in seven different directions.

On top of the stone pillar, Jura's eyes kept wandering between Erza and Imber, wary of their every move. He could see that among the seven opponents, they were the strongest.

'Miss Erza is strong in close combat. Her changeable armor and solid combat skills are the weight of her reputation. ’

‘This wizard named Yinbel is strong in magic. Yesterday he easily defeated Leon, but he obviously didn’t use his full strength. Now it seems that his magic power is not inferior to mine! ’

'Just feeling his magic power from a distance like this, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my body. Where did this guild come from? How come there are so many powerful magicians? ’

After looking at Erza and Imber up and down, Jura finally set his sights on Urrudia.

'Compared with those two, the lady named Urrutia's magic power is still a little bit behind, but her magic has a great advantage in this competitive game! ’

Thinking of this, Jula sighed helplessly.

"Hey...this is really embarrassing for me!"

When Jiula was sizing up the other seven people, these seven people were also sizing up their opponents.

In the shadow of a famous tree, the people standing in front of him are all stars in the magic world. No one dares to trust others and underestimate the enemy.

The sense of oppression from Jula and Yinbel was too strong. Ivan was trembling with fear and did not dare to be careless. He just wanted to end the game as soon as possible and then find the two big sisters to calm his frightened little heart.

Narubudinku's neck was shrunk, his cunning eyes were full of calculations and conspiracies, and his slovenly appearance was disgusting to look at.

Warek of the 'Four-Headed Hound' has already begun to shed tears. This guy who was bitten by a sword in the original work by Oga in one move, is praying in his heart at this moment that the big bosses can see that he has enough tears and For the sake of crying loudly, try to clean yourself up as late as possible.

This is the only thing he can do now.

The girl Sika looked at her opponent curiously. Although she appeared in public for the first time, her blue twin ponytails + white sailor suit, as well as the image of an 18-year-old girl with bright eyes, good vision, and youthful vitality, attracted a wave of fans for her. .

Even Kira's eyes were on her.

Of course, this does not mean that he is obsessed with twin ponytails and sailor suits. Although young girls are very eye-catching, Kira has never been biased in appreciating and evaluating beautiful things.

This time he was simply curious about the girl's magic.

Dang, Dang, Dang! ! !

"On the second day of the Great Demon Fight, the competitive mode [Naval Battle] officially begins!!"

As the broadcast spread throughout the venue, the players on the stone pillars each took action.

"Rock and iron walls!!"

Jiula did not hesitate. He raised his right hand and pointed his fingers together, and four thick stone pillars were pulled up from the bottom of the lake four to five meters deep.

The thickest one, about two meters in diameter, easily shattered and replaced the stone pillar at Jula's feet, lifting him up into the sky; the other three were controlled by thoughts, as if they were alive, and floated in the air after coming out of the water. They turned a corner and attacked Imber, Erza and Urrutia respectively.

This hand is as fast as lightning, and it is powerful and heavy. No one with A-level or above strength can't react at all. Fortunately, the three attacked people have two brushes, and they are not novices who can handle it easily.

"Change into Black Feather Armor!!"

Seeing the stone pillar attack, Erza calmly put on her lightest armor with the ability to fly, and then quickly jumped up to avoid the attack.

After hearing the rules, she thought that if she wanted to avoid falling into the water during this competition, flying would be the best option besides freezing the lake.

Yinbel's response was as expected. His body was as stable as a mountain. He stood with his hands behind his back. He raised his head and glanced at the stone pillar that hit his head.

Clang——!

The stone pillars froze instantly, and even the lake around Imber froze into ice.

"Oh! No surprise! Player Yinbel froze the arena into an ice battlefield! This gave the players a foothold!! But... is the situation really as simple as we see?"

As if to confirm what the announcer said, the next moment, the ice surface was like a video tape with the rewind button pressed. Time went back and the lake returned to its original appearance.

"It's the magic of Urrutia's players! She turned the ice into a lake again!! It seems that as long as she is around, the players can only fight on the stone pillars!!!"

As for the big stone pillar that Jura attacked her, it also aged instantly under the action of the arc of time. It was first broken into several pieces, and then either scattered into fly ash, or fell directly out of Jura's control and fell into the water. It made a thumping sound.

The four big guys inside were fighting together, and the four outside were also busy.

"My strength is too different from theirs, so I was right not to rush in rashly! Since Mr. Jura and Miss Erza didn't attack me immediately, let's wait until they decide the winner before joining the battle."

Ivan, the blond boy from Cyan Pegasus, looked at the four people not far away who were already fighting with swords, stone pillars, and ice, and chose to wait and act.

In fact, whether it was him or the remaining three people, this was a good plan, but there were just some people who had nothing to do and wanted to open up a second battlefield to determine the winner.

"drink!!"

A short, ugly, fat, wretched man with purple skin kept moving between the stone pillars with his impressive jumping ability.

Narubudinku of ‘The Tail of the Crow’!

His right hand has expanded and is covered with spikes. He swings it like an enlarged version of a mace, but its destructive power is stronger than a mace and it is easier to use. It is a true arm-like driver!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Nalubudinku used his strength to destroy the stone pillars under his feet, obviously intending to reduce the space for players to stand. He rose and fell several times to come to Volek's side, and then hit him with a blow to the head!

"Nani?!"

"Is that guy an idiot?! Attacking potential teammates at this time? 1"

"They were defeated by the 'Four-Headed Hounds' yesterday, so they must be seeking revenge!"

"But this is a competition, so I can't say anything..."

The audience was talking about the ugly fat man's behavior. Although the other party's actions were completely in line with the rules of the game, the personal grudges mixed with this kind of battle and the behavior of destroying the stone pillars and draining the bottom of the cauldron made everyone's reputation of this guild and this person continue to decrease.

"Well done! Scold them hard!!"

Hearing that at least half of the people on the field were cursing at Narubudinku, Makarov felt refreshed and wanted to take out a few bottles of wine to celebrate.

"No! Not only do you have to scold, but you have to beat me! Beat me hard!!"

On the field, Volek reacted in time, tears flew out of his eyes, turned into two huge fists, and blocked Nalubudinku's wolf-fang fist!

In the original work, this sidekick who was defeated by Oga in one move and didn't even show his strength finally showed his strength.
