Chapter 246 Dragon Slayer Research Institute
Dozens of half-human-height mechanical soldiers turned their hands into sharp blades, their eyes glowed scarlet, and they all jumped into the air and pounced towards the crowd.
A few slightly peculiar words almost made Kira suspect that he had walked into the wrong set.
"Since we have decided to start a war, it will be easy. I just want to take them apart and take a look." Kira stretched out his hand and waved it back, "These mechanical soldiers are in your hands , Markbeth!"
"You should just call me Dark Night!"
Dark Night walked forward slowly, and just as he was about to attack, he turned to look at Kira and asked, "Don't you want to leave one or two behind? Maybe they'll be useful later."
Kira thought about it and felt that what he said made sense, so he replied: "Okay, then let's leave one!"
"I see!"
Dark Night responded, but just stood there motionless, staring at the jumping mechanical soldier with sleepy eyes. The next moment, magic power instantly surged around his body, and then, the space in front of him began to distort and fluctuate.
Clank, clank, clank…
As long as it is a dead object, no matter what the atomic arrangement of the metal it is made of is, distortion magic will be effective on it!
In just a moment, all the mechanical soldiers in front of him were distorted.
The sharp blades in their hands became as soft as the thinnest strips of cloth, and after several twists and turns, they were crumpled into a ball of metal, losing their original cutting power; their bodies lost their original power after being folded several times by the dark night like origami, and by the time they fell to the ground, they had become ugly and strange "freaks".
Plop! Plop! …
The heavy metal hit the ground with a series of thumps.
To show his appreciation for his subordinates, Kira clapped his hands softly from behind: "Well done! Our team's configuration is really perfect... Wait! It seems that we are lacking a powerful attack wizard who can punch hard!"
"Come on, what kind of strong attack is a wizard pursuing?"
Listen! What kind of talk is this? If a wizard can't fight with real people, what kind of wizard is he? This kind of ideological awareness needs to be improved!
Kira sighed helplessly: "Hey! This is why you can't beat 'Fairy Tail'!"
…
What Kira didn't know was that when he was dealing with all the mechanical soldiers that appeared before him, their every move was being recorded by the surviving mechanical soldier and transmitted to another secret place through wireless signals.
Deep in the woods, in a room in a mechanical castle, a black figure was meditating in front of the crystal screen on the wall.
"How did the 'Sage' of 'Fairy Tail', Kira Hopelet, former Council members Jellal and Urrutia, and the 'Six Demon Generals' get together? And why are they here?"
The person who spoke was a young man who looked to be around 20 years old. His lush short black hair covered his right eye, and the exposed left eye had a gloomy and cold light. He had black hair and black pupils, a cold face, and pale skin. He looked like a patient with a terminal illness.
This person is none other than Disizu, one of the five existing “researchers” in the Dragon Slayer Research Institute.
While he was thinking, a cheerful female voice came from behind him: "According to the latest information, the 'Six Demon Generals' have been jointly eliminated by the regular guilds, and 'Fairy Tail' is one of them. I didn't expect that they were not imprisoned by the Council?"
The newcomer had long light pink hair tied into a knee-length braid; her light brown skin and pink lipstick made her look sunny and healthy; she carried two holy swords engraved with golden magic runes on her back, and she was covered in silver-white armor from head to toe, which made her look powerful and beautiful.
The female swordsman, Macara, is the most experienced and oldest person in the Dragon Slayer Research Institute, but in fact, she is only 30 years old this year, which is the age for maturity and stability.
Although she was in the research institute, she was always paying attention to the movements of the magic world, so she was already well aware of the incident that happened yesterday. Of course, this was also thanks to the powerful intelligence network in this mechanical castle.
Tap tap...
Accompanied by two light sounds, a gray cat walked over on two feet. It had three white whiskers on each side of its face, golden pupils, a pure white belly, red and tender pink palms, and a tail swinging freely behind it, looking quite cute.
Although its body is only as big as its head, it emanates special magical power, demonstrating that its magic is different from that of ordinary humans or even ordinary monsters.
Nicole, the transcendent of Edras, is six years old and the youngest researcher here.
It said proudly: "The people in the Council have been eating dry food for a long time. Even if we replace them with a new batch, I think they are not even as good as cats."
Behind it, there followed a woman with a graceful figure, her face covered by a mask.
At this moment, the woman was staring at the image on the screen. After a long while, she spoke: "Hmm... there seems to be a very familiar guest. I originally thought that our destinies would not meet, but I didn't expect that we would bump into each other."
Nicol unfolded his wing magic, flew to the crystal screen and took a closer look, then turned around and said, "Do you want to stage a touching drama of 'reunion after a long separation'? The book says that if two hostile parties encounter this kind of situation, their strength will be greatly reduced, but no matter what danger they encounter in the future, they will be able to turn danger into safety. I want to see if it's true!"
McCalla grabbed the gray cat's tail, held it in his arms and squeezed it hard: "You should read less nonsense, Nicole!"
The hard armor made the cat’s face look bloated and cute, and it cried out incoherently: “It hurts… It hurts so much… Let me go…”
Disizu still had a blank expression on his face, ignoring the interaction between the gray cat and the female swordsman, as if he had gotten used to such a daily routine: "Now the point is, what are they doing here?"
The gray cat emerged from the armor with difficulty and guessed, "Could it be that he just came in by mistake?"
"It shouldn't be!" McCalla stepped forward and pointed at Eric on the screen and said, "According to the intelligence, this person has the poisonous dragon-slayer crystal purchased from here buried in his body. I think they came here for this, right?"
Disizu nodded silently: "That makes sense! If that's the case, then it looks like they've made this trip in vain."
Nicole finally broke free and asked the two people who were talking, "I remember you said that the one I had was the last one, right?"
Disizu looked up at the clever gray cat flying in the air and said, "That's right! And since Silver took over here, we no longer do this kind of business!"
"Why?"
McCalla jumped on the spot, grabbed the cat in his arms again, and explained, "In this day and age, where can we find so many dragons? Not to mention defeating dragons and taking out their hearts! Even we use magic crystals left behind who knows how long ago."
Nicole asked softly, "We are dragon slayers, using dragon slayer magic, so can't we defeat dragons?"
"Don't be so naive!"
Macalla reached out and tapped its head gently, saying, "A dragon is not something that can be defeated so easily. Maybe it would take all five of us to tie it."
Seeing that the senior was speaking seriously, Nicole asked curiously, "McKara, have you ever seen a dragon?"
The female swordsman denied: "No!"
The gray cat breathed a sigh of relief: "Hey! I thought..."
"But I have seen the heart of a real dragon, and the man who killed the dragon!"
"Nani?! Really?!"
Hearing her words, Nicol couldn't help but exclaimed, and the other two people next to him also looked over with curiosity.
"Really! That happened when I was a kid..." McCalla cleared his throat and said slowly, "At that time, I followed the former director to other research institutes for technical exchanges, and happened to run into a transaction. When I saw the heart, it was still beating from time to time!"
"The seller was a rough man from the northern continent. Later I heard that he had hunted several dragons by himself and ate all their meat, leaving only their hearts for trading."
"Eat dragon meat?!" Nicole was shocked by what McCalla said, and then changed his tone, "Is dragon meat delicious?"
"I don't know, but I heard from that person that it was delicious."
"What about the dragon bones?"
"No normal person would eat bones! But if used to make soup, the nutritional value should be very high."
Nicole was immersed in his fantasy and soon couldn't help drooling with envy: "I really want to taste the dragon bone!"
