Chapter 230: "Commander-in-Chief" Erza
In the current situation, Jura needs to deal with the 'Six Demon Generals' and Jellal who just had an unexpected change.
Apart from Jura, the strongest person here is Laxus, so there is nothing wrong with giving the task of dealing with Kira to Laxus. The only problem is whether he can defeat him.
Just after Laxus uttered this arrogant remark, the entire White Forest suddenly began to shake violently!
Everyone felt a shake under their feet, and Lucy, who had just stood up, lost her balance and fell directly onto Erza.
Boom!
The armor was very hard, and Lucy was further injured.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Happy was running around in panic, but he was just held in Natsu's arms, so nothing happened.
Boom boom...
"There seems to be something underneath!"
The ground cracked, sand and soil poured down, grass and trees sank, and the bodies of several people swayed uncontrollably, forcing several people who had already been injured to face the danger again and take steps to defend themselves.
“Oh…”
"careful!"
Realizing that the vibration was unusual and possibly related to Nirvana, the allied forces sprang into action, each looking for something nearby to lean on, taking care of their injured companions, and scrambling to deal with the shaking ground.
Fortunately, this place seems to be very close to the center of the earthquake. The ground is just shaking slightly. In addition to the trees, grass and stones that keep falling down, there is more of a feeling of being lifted up. At the same time, there are rows of ancient buildings around that are constantly rising, just like an ancient city that has been covered in dust for many years is awakening again.
"What is this?!"
As their sights moved upward, everyone finally saw the huge mechanical creation emerging from under the White Sea. Several experienced people immediately realized something: "It seems that this is not an ordinary sea of trees. There is an unknown place under it."
The harpy flew high in the sky to look down, circled for a while, then rushed down and shouted, "It seems like there's a giant mechanical spider under our feet, with six legs, and now we're on its back!"
In fact, needless to say, when everyone was lifted up, they had already followed the trajectory of the vibration and saw six giant claws emerging from the ground in the distance, and the surrounding buildings also showed that this was an ancient city abandoned in history!
The mechanical behemoth that has been sealed for 400 years, 'Nirvana', has awakened!
"Is this... the true face of 'Nirvana'?!"
Kira's previous changes almost made everyone forget the existence of 'Nirvana'.
"It really is raining cats and dogs!" Erza had already changed back into her original armor skirt. She turned around with a frown, "I can't help it. I'll leave Kira to you, Laxus??"
However, Erza looked around, left and right, but couldn't find Laxus.
"Where's Laxus?"
Gray shook his head and replied, "I don't know, maybe he just fell down?"
Erza hesitated and said, "That shouldn't be the case, right?"
In an unknown place, Laxus' face was covered with sweat. He covered his mouth, trying hard to resist the urge to dizzy and vomit, and sat on the ground: "I was almost discovered... Damn it! This... is so ugly!"
Erza closed her eyes helplessly and sighed. When she opened her eyes again, her expression had become serious. She looked at everyone and said solemnly, "There's nothing we can do. We can only rely on ourselves now!"
Among all the people here, only Erza has sufficient command awareness. She can calmly analyze the situation and find countermeasures when encountering problems. In this regard, even Jura cannot compare with her.
"As a matter of urgency, we need to obtain more information about Nirvana! It would be best if we could find a way to control, stop or destroy it, so that it does not cause a greater impact!"
Xiang stood up and said, "Leave this part to me! My magic 'Ancient Book' can find the information of 'Nirvana' as quickly as possible!"
"In that case, thank you for your help!" Erza nodded, then turned around and said, "Let's go and deal with the rest of the 'Six Demon Generals'. Natsu, can you smell... Natsu?!"
At this time, Natsu was lying on the ground with his mouth puffed out, trying to hold back the constant dizziness and vomiting, and he was about to collapse.
Natsu was barely able to breathe, and his voice was trembling as he slowly said, "Transportation..."
Everyone: “…”
No way? Nirvana is clearly not moving!
"Really? You always fail at the crucial moment!" Erza gritted her teeth for the first time and shouted to the sky: "Happy!"
"Leave it to me!" Happy responded, flew over nervously, grabbed Natsu and flew again.
Seeing that Natsu had regained his energy, Erza asked, "Natsu, can you smell Kira and the Six Demon Generals?"
Natsu sniffed the air carefully, then pointed in a direction and said, "Hmm! They are all in that direction , and that Jellal is there too!"
Just then, Jura stepped forward and said, "Leave Mr. Kira to me!"
Jola had selfish motives when he took the initiative to propose this. Although he had a good temper, he was not completely without the desire to fight. Occasionally, when he got hot-blooded, he would want to find an opponent to compete with.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a gap in the magic world during his generation. Jura is 27 years old this year, but in all the major magic guilds in the Kingdom of Fiore, at least on the surface, there is no one of similar age who can be Jura's opponent.
Until two months ago, Jura still felt that the person closest to him among the younger generation was Gerard, or rather, Ziklein.
But since the "Tower of Paradise" incident, he changed the candidate to Kira, and today, Laxus was added.
Although Kira is 7 years younger than Jura, he is famous. Jura has always wanted to fight with Kira, but he never had the chance. Now that the opportunity comes, he naturally takes the lead.
Erza nodded. Although she had a strong personality, she knew in her heart that even when Laxus faced Killer, the odds of winning were only 40% and 60%. If it were her turn, the odds would be even lower, and this was under normal circumstances!
Therefore, handing Kira over to Jura is indeed the best solution at the moment.
"Fortunately, Jellal is gone... Erza, what are you thinking about? Now is not the time to think about that!"
Erza shook her head to dispel the distracting thoughts and continued, "If I remember correctly, the woman who appeared last was the former council member, Urrutia, right?"
Ichiya came over and nodded, saying, "That's right! Her magic is also very special. I heard that the collapse of the Council was caused by her, MEN~"
"In that case, leave her to me..."
Suddenly, Gray interrupted her and said in a mysterious manner: "Eruza! Leave that person to me!"
Leon walked up to Grace and continued, “And me!”
The brothers looked at each other, their eyes meeting, and there was a message in their eyes that only they could understand.
Although Erza noticed that there was something wrong with the two's attitude, she still trusted Gray and just said, "Okay, but the other party's ability is not simple. You have to be more careful when facing him!"
"Don't worry!"
Erza turned her head and continued, "Among the remaining four people, the one wearing glasses is very fast, but during the fight just now, I found that he couldn't dodge the rain of swords at all, so I suspect that it was a kind of somatosensory slowing magic, and this kind of magic is ineffective against non-living things. As long as we keep a distance and use long-range attacks, we can block his speed."
"A person with a poisonous snake can predict the opponent's movements. If you encounter him, as long as you attack fast enough , or block his ability to move, or use a large-scale attack so that he can't dodge even if he predicts it, you can win. At the same time, you have to pay attention to the poisonous snake on his body!"
"The only female seems to be a Celestial Mage. Her Celestial Spirit has the ability to transform into another person and use that person's magic. But since she's a Celestial Mage, her own strength won't be too strong. You can win by choosing close combat or taking her key!"
Lucy murmured to herself, "Astral Mage..."
"I'll leave these three to you! The last person to wake up has very strange magic. He can even deflect Natsu's attacks while he's sleeping. I have no idea about this yet and need to investigate further. Let me deal with this person personally!"
Erza's analysis left everyone around dumbfounded.
"Erusa..."
"Don't worry about me! Since Laxus was able to knock him away with one punch, it proves that he has a very obvious weakness. At least his close combat ability is not strong. I will be fine!"
Everyone: Look at the twinkle in our eyes before you speak. Who is worried about you...
"How amazing! In just less than 5 minutes, you have completely understood the opponent's abilities and even thought of a way to deal with them. You are truly worthy of being called the Fairy Queen!"
