Chapter 165 Whose Victory Is This?
On the judges' podium, Disper was still giving explanations from time to time.
"Gray attacked first, using his familiar ice spear. Kana summoned the Fire Ape to fight back. The temperature on the stage has obviously risen. Let's take a look at the temperature on the field now. Oh my god, it's 40 degrees Celsius! But it's been hot recently, and with such a high temperature, it shouldn't just be a problem with this monster..."
With the Fire Demon Ape present, the slender attacks were not effective because the attack power was not enough. Gray judged this at a glance and changed his hand to a large and thick ice shape.
"Ice-made, hammer soldier!"
An ice hammer suddenly appeared above Kana's head and struck down hard, fiercely and powerfully. This was magic that could not be easily melted by fire and high temperature.
At this moment, under Gray's astonished gaze, the Fire Demon Ape actually spoke in human language: "Enemy detected, the enemy is a guild member, [Civil War] mode activated."
"Oh my god, listen up! This monster is entering civil war mode! Was it programmed to fight with its guildmates when it was created? What kind of person would make a magic item like this!"
Elfman in the audience shouted excitedly: "That's it! I also encountered this kind of monster yesterday. That Weasel was very powerful and very fast!"
"That's Kira's tool, right? This guy always gives special treatment to girls, Erza, Mira, Cana, Levy, Bisca..."
"Who told them that their magic requires magic weapons and props?"
"Mira's magic is not needed!"
“But she’s rich! ”
“…”
An ice hammer several times larger than her own fell from the sky, and Kana dodged it by lunging forward again, but Gray had anticipated this.
"Ice floor!" With a wave of his hand, magic was released, and the entire arena was instantly covered with ice, as smooth as a mirror.
This time Kana was caught off guard, and she slid uncontrollably on the ground with a whoosh, looking quite embarrassed.
"hateful!"
As she flew out, Kana's mind worked quickly and she thought of a countermeasure in an instant. She took out a card from her waist and inserted it into the ice to stop sliding.
"Ice-made, prison!"
"Ice creation, chains!"
Gray did not miss this opportunity. He used the next magic after the ice hammer and the floor, preparing to trap Kana, but at this moment, an accident happened.
The Fire Demon Ape that had been summoned earlier launched an attack. As it stepped forward, its eyes shot out golden lasers, which hit the chains and blew them into ice chips. At the same time, a flame bomb spit out of the Fire Demon Ape's mouth. A huge high-temperature fireball exploded on the prison that was about to trap Kana, melting it into water and vaporizing it into steam.
Whoosh! Boom!
The two spells made a loud noise and at the same time stirred up a strong wind that spread outwards. Under the wind pressure, the Fire Demon Ape continued to attack. He pressed his hands on the ground, and an invisible ripple spread in all directions. Wherever it passed, the ice and floor liquefied, revealing the original stones.
"Ice-made, Ice Holy Sword!"
Seeing this, Gray changed his attack method again, creating two ice swords and attacked.
"The long-range attack of ice magic is ineffective, so Gray chose close combat. He used all his magic power to maintain the shape of the two ice swords. This method can indeed concentrate the cold air and prevent the ice from being melted by the flames of the magic ape to the greatest extent! So how will Kana deal with it?"
Before Disper could finish his words, the Fire Demon Ape jumped into the air, and the earrings on its six ears fell off and fell into its hand, forming a short golden stick!
"Oh my god! The Fire Demon Ape is actually a warrior. I didn't expect its earrings to be a magic item. This short stick is so shiny and bright. It's not simple at first glance!
The Fire Demon Ape held his short stick horizontally, standing between Kana and Gray. The stick and sword collided, making a loud sound of metal collision.
Gray looked at the little monkey in front of him in surprise: "You actually have this trick? It's really not easy. I underestimated you before!"
The Fire Demon Ape did not answer. There was no function for chatting in its program. It just focused on defending against the enemy's attacks and trying every means to break through the enemy's defenses.
The two swords used different weights in an orderly manner, with flexible changes. The short stick used force to break cleverness, and great cleverness appeared clumsy. The man and the monkey fought for several minutes with no clear winner.
"Gray thrusts forward with his right sword, and the demon ape jumps up and chops down with his short stick...Gray blocks with his left hand sword, and turns around to try to knock away the short stick, while striking back with his right hand...The demon ape raises the short stick, and then thrusts it down quickly, and his body sinks along with the stick to dodge...It's wonderful!"
"The battle has lasted three minutes and they are still tied. Gray is indeed one of the most promising players of the younger generation of Fairy Tail..."
"This Fire Demon Ape is also unusual. Intelligence shows that it is a magic prop produced by Hope House. Although it looks no different from a real monster, it is actually a mechanical prop. It's incredible!"
"While they are fighting, let's ask the creator of the Fire Demon Ape, Mr. Kira, how much does such a magic item cost?"
Kira took the phone and said, "Only 4.99 million J!"
"4.99 million J?! Did you hear that? Such a powerful mechanical beast only costs 4.99 million J. It's an incredible discount!"
Disper's product placement was very effective. Kira saw that many viewers were looking at him. He estimated that after this competition, the store would receive a large order. Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably better.
On the stage, Kana controlled the Fire Ape to fight Gray. Actually, it had an automatic combat mode, but that mode was too brainless and easy to be targeted, so she finally decided to operate it manually. Besides, if she did nothing and just stood there, it would seem too stupid.
Summoning beasts consume a lot of mana and are difficult to control. With Kana's current magic power and mental strength, she can only control one at most, but one is enough.
Under Kana's control, the Fire Ape fought and cast magic at the same time, with flame explosions, fireballs, and lasers exploding continuously. The weapons in Gray's hands kept changing, with swords, hammers, axes, and shields changing in turn, and he was able to respond flexibly.
Ten minutes passed in this battle, and the shouting from the audience gradually died down. After getting used to Kira's style of killing people with one move, this kind of evenly matched battle seemed too long, and interest gradually waned. Even Disper gave up the commentary and sat in the judges' seat to drink a beverage.
In fact, fighting for such a long time is the norm for wizards. It takes a certain amount of time to accumulate magic, launch attacks, dodge, and predict. After all, not everyone can be as evil as Kira, and there are endless traps in battle.
The Fire Demon Ape stood in front of Kana. If Gray wanted to attack Kana, he had to get rid of it first. However, because Kana was controlling the Demon Ape, she could not use other attacks and the battle came to a stalemate.
Twenty minutes later, the battle finally took a turn.
The continuous use of shaping magic caused Gray's physical strength and magic power to decline, and he became sluggish. Kana had consumed a lot of mental energy because she had been controlling the Fire Demon Ape, and her face gradually showed signs of fatigue.
"You are really tenacious!"
"Same here..."
Gray was sweating all over and Cana was pale. Normally, the two of them could fight in the guild for a whole day without rest, but today they couldn't hold on any longer. Of course, the main reason they couldn't hold on was that this was a one-on-one duel, not a multiplayer melee, and there was also the factor of attribute restraint.
"Let's decide the outcome with one move!"
"Sure!"
Gray took a long breath, mobilized the remaining magic power, clapped his hands in front of his chest, and pushed the magic to the extreme; Kana also controlled the Fire Demon Ape in her mind to use the strongest move. It put away the short stick, turned it into earrings and hung it on Liu'er again, then gathered all the energy in the body to form a dark red flame concentrated at the mouth of the Fire Ape, compressed into an energy ball with red and black, and black and red.
"Here they come, their ultimate move is coming!" Noticing the rising aura of the two people on the field, Disper knew that the next moment would decide the outcome, and he immediately stood up and shouted, "Everyone be careful, these two people are about to use their final trick!!!"
As expected, as Dispere finished speaking, Gray and Kana shouted at the same time.
"Ice-made, the Demon King's eternally frozen broken fang!"
"Fire Demon Ape, Flame Rasengan!"
