Chapter 364 You and I are not on the same level (update 1)
On the second day after the Great Demon directed his martial arts, it was still the same conference venue, and the venue was still full of spectators.
When thirty teams of guild wizards entered the arena, the cheers from the audience were overwhelming.
Compared to yesterday when only Makao and others in Fairy Tail were shouting, today nearly a quarter of the audience at the venue was shouting for them.
This all stems from George's instant kill yesterday.
It is the nature of most humans to be strong. As long as you are strong enough, you will not lack followers and admirers.
After the host started the conversation, he gave the right to speak to the pumpkin man from yesterday.
"Now, I would like to ask our Mr. Pumpkin to introduce the rules of today's competition to you!"
A magical projection of the Pumpkin Man appears above the venue.
"What we are going to do today is an individual competition. Through our magic system, we will conduct random matching battles without excluding the wizards of our guild.
The winner will receive ten points for their guild, the loser will receive zero points, and each player in a tie will receive five points. "
As the pumpkin man's magic projection fell, ten magic arrays lit up throughout the venue, and ten large circular arenas rose at the same time.
"Note that if one party loses combat effectiveness or surrenders, it will be considered a loser. If someone kills someone, they will be disqualified from the competition, and the entire guild will be eliminated."
"This kind of space magic circle is quite interesting. After the great magician's military training is over, maybe you can go to the royal family's Magic Development Bureau and the Royal Library to have a look."
He noticed yesterday that the magic circle at the venue could not only transport items, but also take them back.
In fact, this world also has a large teleportation magic circle, which the Magic Council has used before, but he did not see any related magic books in Fairy Tail's library.
It is probably because this large-scale teleportation magic circle is a national strategic magic that is monopolized by the royal family and the Magic Council, or because the conditions for its use are very harsh, such as consuming magic crystals.
But even if the conditions of use are harsh, he feels that there is still value in learning.
It just so happened that he had learned how to make portkeys. Portkeys could also be used for teleportation, but they couldn't teleport too many people at once. If you learn from this large teleportation magic circle, you might be able to improve it.
Moreover, the Kingdom's Magic Development Bureau and Royal Library are also quite famous and worth a visit.
Maybe we can also find some clues about time magic.
"Now, let's start the first group of draws!"
The pumpkin man pointed to the big screen at the venue, and the names of one hundred and fifty magicians began to scroll rapidly on the big screen.
"stop!"
Ten seconds later, the names on the big screen stopped scrolling, and the first group of contestants appeared one by one from top to bottom.
And at the front of the first group were Fairy Tail George and Sword-biting Tiger Oga.
Seeing the two magicians who were most in the limelight yesterday, colliding with each other like this, the audience in the auditorium all stood up excitedly.
Yesterday, these two men killed the terrifying mechanical magic gorilla in one blow. They were both magicians with lightning attributes. The battle was absolutely exciting.
"There is definitely something shady."
When George saw this, he muttered to himself.
How could it be such a coincidence that the two players who performed most conspicuously yesterday collided with each other immediately, and they were still in the first group.
It was obvious that the hosting royal family wanted to bring in some heavyweight players from the beginning to warm up the competition.
This is just like those variety shows in previous lives. If you want to be interesting, you must design the script in advance and follow the script. Otherwise, there will be so many hilarious moments that are performed on the spot.
The royal family naturally hopes to attract the attention of everyone in the country and lay a solid foundation for future events, so it must have enough attractions.
The so-called random drawing is actually a secret operation.
What kind of battle arrangement can detonate the whole audience, then how to operate it.
Otherwise, those powerful magicians will randomly fight against average magicians, and they will be instantly killed when they come on stage, so what is there to see?
Observing the battle list above carefully, George found that the level of the magicians on the list were roughly the same.
That is, top students vs. top students, and poor students vs. poor students.
In this way, there will be no situation where the score gap between the major guild teams is too wide at the end of the individual competition, resulting in no suspense in the next two competitions.
Of course, it is also possible that the royal family wants to use this to allow all magicians to display all their magic as much as possible so that they can secretly register and collect intelligence.
He always felt that there was something strange about the way the great demon directed the martial arts.
"Invite the first group of contestants to come on!"
The nineteen people and one cat who were drawn stood on ten stages respectively.
"I didn't expect that my opponent would be a mere cat. I heard that you defeated Laxus before?"
On the ring, Oga crossed his arms and looked arrogant.
George asked curiously:
"Do you know Laxus?"
"I don't know him. I just heard that he is a magician who uses thunder dragon-slaying magic. He is very powerful, but it seems that he is not that good now. Otherwise, how could he lose to a cat."
Oga's face was filled with disdain.
Also a Lost Magic, also an S-class, he has always regarded Laxus as his opponent, hoping to have a showdown one day and prove that he is the strongest lightning mage.
It's a pity that Laxus was defeated by a cat and died at the hands of a dragon, which made him so disappointed.
"It turns out we're not acquaintances, that's good."
George nodded after hearing this.
Oga frowned:
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing."
George spread his cat paws.
If this Oga is Laxus's friend, he won't be able to use too much force later. Since he is not, it doesn't matter.
"The game begins!"
With the host's roar, two sturdy kingdom guards fiercely struck the big gong on the stone statue.
"It's time for you to leave."
Oga heard the gong and pointed to George:
"God-killing magic·Black Thunder Ball!"
The huge black ball instantly wrapped George's body, and countless black lightning flashed in the thunder ball, bombarding George one after another.
The audience who saw this scene exclaimed and worried for George, especially some girls who like cats.
However, to their surprise, all the lightning in those black balls, when hitting George, seemed to encounter a mirror, and bounced back automatically, and none of them really hit George.
"It's really interesting."
George raised his cat's paw, and the blue lightning burst out, wrapping the black lightning ball, instantly shrinking and condensing between his claws.
The black lightning ball does contain special power, much stronger than normal lightning, but this level of lightning ball is no threat to him who has already touched the essence of lightning.
"You and I are not at the same level at all, and there is a gap between you and Laxus."
The cat's paw flicked, and the blue lightning ball wrapped in black lightning was instantly bounced in front of Oga.
