Chapter 242, Easily Solved

underground tunnel.

When Arugadios saw that Natsu and the others had not started to escape, he quickly said: "What are you waiting for? They are murderous guys, and they also use murderous magic."

"Ang?" Natsu tilted his head slightly to look at him and said, "So what?"

Arugadios was stunned.

Are these people not afraid of this murderous Knights of Magicians at all?

"Anyway -" Natsu looked at the Hungry Wolf Knights and said, "You are enemies, right, and you are murderous guys. Now you are going to be our enemy, so be mentally prepared."

"Big?" A guy with a rope wrapped around his head and a simple style of painting tilted his head slightly and said: "Of course you are ready, what about you, the magicians in the greenhouse."

greenhouse

Everyone was silent for a while, even Lucy didn't want to complain.

"Forget it, they're just a bunch of idiots." Natsu waved his fist: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to guys like you."

"You are the strongest, right?" Natsu looked at the guy carrying two scythes and said, "You look a little stronger than the other guys."

'boom'

Natsu suddenly attacked.

"Hmph!" The man quickly blocked with two scythes, but was still knocked away by Natsu's powerful impact.

"Are you really going to go to war with the strongest executioner in the kingdom?" Arugadios couldn't believe it, with a shocked expression on his face.

"Don't underestimate the Magisters Guild, let alone our strongest guild, Fairy Tail." Gajeel turned his eyes at the other party, feeling very unhappy.

Although he is a high-ranking figure in the kingdom, but he has no vision to see this situation, it is no wonder that he would come up with something as naive as the solar eclipse plan.

Arugadios was silent. These guys really don't know how powerful the executioners are, they will suffer, they are a bunch of naive guys.

"Let's go." Habi helped Arugadios up and took him and Lucy away from the battlefield. After all, the two of them have no fighting ability now.

"You look okay." Gajeel looked at the strong man who could spray acid.

"I wonder if your acid can corrode my iron skin." With that, Gajeel rushed forward.

"Xia Lulu!" Wendy shouted.

"Wendy!"

The two girls each chose the other's female mage to fight.

"Then let me deal with you." Lili looked at the last person, the guy with a rope wrapped around his head and dressed like a fisherman.

‘Boom boom boom’

Fighting breaks out.

"Be so strong"

Until the fight started, Arugadios showed a shocked expression.

Fairy Tail, whom he thought was the weaker side, actually had the upper hand during the fight!

The boy with the flames all over his body looked so embarrassed in front of the Eclipse Gate before, but he didn't expect that his fighting power would be so exaggerated when he actually fought.

Arugadios has also paid attention to Dai Mo Dou's martial arts, but because of the screen and lack of familiarity, it is difficult to have a true perception of Natsu's strength.

Now that Natsu's flames came out, the temperature in the entire space directly exceeded forty degrees. This was something he had to suppress, after all, there were still injured people here.

Otherwise, it is normal for it to soar higher - Natsu's flame temperature can turn steel into molten iron. Think of a sweltering steel factory, how exaggerated it would be if there was no cooling at all, and Natsu is only higher than that. Not low!

Arugadios felt like he couldn't breathe, and his skin was burning. It was obvious that he had been moved far enough away.

He turned to look at Lucy and found that this weak-looking girl was actually very calm and not feeling any discomfort at all.

Isn't she a Celestial Spirit Mage?

Without the key, how could he be able to withstand such an exaggerated high temperature, just like ordinary people?

"Huhuhu——"

Arugadios's heavy breathing was heard by Habib.

Habi turned his head and glanced at it, and said: "I don't know how to create ice magic, you can only hold on."

"I'll try my best," Arugadios said with difficulty.

"Natsu—" Lucy shouted: "Hurry up as fast as you can, Mr. Arugadios won't be able to hold on anymore."

"I know, please," Natsu replied casually.

Arugadios: "." So embarrassing.

"Then I won't play with you." Natsu looked at his enemy.

"Huh? Playing?" As the leader of the Hungry Wolf Knights, he smiled and said, "Didn't you notice the mark on yourself?"

"So what?" Natsu didn't care.

"My two extremely sharp scythes will chase the marks on your body and hunt you to the ends of the earth!"

As he spoke, the two sickles merged into one and spun at high speed at the same time.

‘Huhuhu——’

The scythe spun wildly and rushed towards Natsu.

"Pursuit?" Natsu tilted his head slightly.

He looked at the pursuing scythe and took a step back: "The fire dragon's roar!!!"

'boom'

The terrifying magic output knocked the rotating sickle away.

"It's useless. No matter how powerful your magic is, you can't resist my sickle." The leader said.

"Ah, your magic only has the scythe?" Natsu asked.

"What?"

‘Click’

Suddenly a hand stretched out and grabbed the crazily spinning sickle.

"What?!" The team leader was shocked and turned to look.

It turned out that the spinning scythe was knocked away by Natsu's roar and flew towards Gajeel. When Gajeel saw the scythe flying towards him, he reached out and caught it.

"Still want to leave?" Gajeel turned around and saw that the scythe was still struggling. Although it was very powerful, it could not escape from his hand.

"what are you doing?!"

Next, Gajeel's actions directly shocked the outlook of the group leader and Arugadios.

I saw him holding the sickle, biting a notch on it with one bite, and then praised: "Not bad."

"Gajeel is the Dragon Slayer of Iron. He can eat any steel and replenish his magic power," Lucy explained.

"My sickle, damn it!" The leader quickly separated the two sickles, and then wanted to take the other one back.

'Snapped'

But halfway through, he was intercepted by Natsu again.

Natsu also grabbed the rotating scythe with one hand and used his force directly.

‘Kacha’

The scythe broke into pieces and fell to the ground.

"How can it be?!"

"You know nothing about the power of the Dragon Slayer." Happy mocked.

"It's over." Natsu rushed forward and knocked down the unarmed leader with one punch.

"It's that simple. The leader of the Hungry Wolf Knights was" Arugadios was shocked.

This murderous guy was actually solved so easily.

Fairy Tail. How strong is it? !

the other side--

"I don't believe it!" The strong man with strong strength and acid spray also made a shocked voice.

Faced with his powerful fists and acid attacks, Gajeel didn't even bother to avoid them.

Doesn't break defense at all.

After punching the opponent a few times, he saw that Natsu was winning and didn't want to fall behind, so he just punched him.

"Iron dragon stick!"

The most basic skill was to protrude a lot of iron rods from his arms and beat the strong man until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he fell down with a look of resignation on his face.

"this"

Arugadios was dumbfounded.

Being defeated so easily, he felt that the Hungry Wolf Knights were like trash.

He is clearly the strongest team of executioners in the kingdom, a figure who is feared by countless people.

At this time, he was doubting whether the Hungry Wolf Knights would be able to get second from the bottom if they participated in the Great Demon Fight, which he didn't like very much.

perhaps

Arugadios suddenly sighed, they were too self-righteous, thinking that they were just folk magicians, but now it seems

But it's them.

"Xia Lulu!"

Wendy shouted.

"Okay, Wendy."

The two have a similar mind.

Wendy and Xia Lulu are naturally not as strong as Natsu and Gajeel, so in order to quickly defeat the enemy, they have to use more strength.

"Disintegration——"

Wendy immediately disintegrated, tripling the power of her magic.

Then, she and Xia Lulu combined and roared at the same time: "Tianlong's roar!"

A terrifying tornado swept through the underground passage.

Wait for the wind to subside and the dust to settle.

Their two opponents were already lying down in ragged clothes.

In the end, only Lili was left. Lili was relatively weaker, so the fight with the opponent was back and forth at this time.

But suddenly——

A ray of light appeared, a figure emerged from it, and then he punched the enemy in the back of the head.

"Big?" The other party fell to the ground on the spot and lost consciousness.

"Leo?" Lucy was stunned: "Why are you here?"

"Because I can pass through the gate freely, Lucy, go on." Leo threw the Protoss Key to Lucy: "Don't lose us again."

After saying that, he went back.

"At this point -" Habi covered his mouth and said in a somewhat sinister tone: "The so-called knights composed of the top magicians who support this country, the strongest executioners in the kingdom, as enemies who have no chance of survival when they meet. This is where it ends. Defeated."

"." Arugadios blushed.

After defeating the Hungry Wolf Knights.

Everyone continued to move forward.

Soon, I saw two huge stone doors.

"This is the exit, right?"

Natsu happily ran over and was about to push the door open.

But, suddenly, the door opened by itself.

"Why?"

A figure appeared at the door.

Natsu could have stopped in his tracks, but he smelled something familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time. For a moment, he was stunned and fell flat on his face.

‘Plop’

He knocked down the man at the door.

This man was originally wearing a mage cloak and a hat, but Natsu knocked him down and took off his hat.

Natsu jumped into the man's arms.

"Why?!!!"

Lucy and others made shocked sounds.

"Lucy?" Natsu looked up from between the two peaks and saw a familiar face but with a little more vicissitudes of life and sadness written all over it, with joy and nostalgia in his eyes.

This person--

It's Lucy!

"Natsu, I finally see you again." This Lucy wanted to laugh, but couldn't help crying.

royal palace.

"Your Highness, something bad has happened!" The messenger ran frantically to where the princess was to report the situation.

"The scheduled contact with Naraku Palace was interrupted. The last message received was that the Hungry Wolf Knights were defeated!"

"How is that possible? It's just a few magicians." The other soldiers were shocked.

"Have those criminals escaped from Naraku Palace?!" Others worried.

Princess Emerald lay on the windowsill, looking at the scenery outside.

From here, she could just look at the arena where the Great Magic Fighting Martial Arts was held on the other side of the city.

Upon hearing the news, she smiled with relief.

As expected of Fairy Tail.

As expected of the companion of Yevlit and Emily.

Yes, she was not surprised by this result, and this was also the result she expected.

"Your Highness, your expression has revealed your feelings."

"Denton?" Princess Emerald's face changed slightly, and she turned to look at the visitor.

The visitor was a short old man, the Minister of Defense Denton.

"Didn't you go to the arena with your father?" Princess Emerald said.

"Because there are more important things to deal with." Denton said.

As an old minister, and the current king is still very open-minded, he will not give up his principles on some major issues because of fear of the princess's authority.

"Your Highness, don't you have anything to explain?" Denton asked.

"I want to ask you something else." Princess Emerald said, "What does it mean to send Algadios to Naraku Palace without trial?"

"That's exactly what I want to ask." Denton said, "Your Highness, you used Fairy Tail for the Eclipse Project. I remember that Fairy Tail's Yevlit was your childhood playmate, and his disciple Emily is also your close friend. You did such a thing of betraying friendship for a very dangerous Eclipse Project."

"You are too selfish and self-righteous both in public and in private!"

Denton roared, "Your Highness, time must not be played with!"

"The Eclipse Project is definitely not as simple as you think!"

Hearing Denton's words, Princess Emerald trembled.

This remark hit her heart.

Yevlit and Emily are her few good friends.

When she was young, because of her status, as a pampered princess, she was always treated with respect by children of the same age, or some nobles would teach their children to approach her with ulterior motives.

Only Yevlit was not like this.

At a noble banquet, she saw a little boy in a cheap suit. He was obviously the lowest class of nobles, and his father was only a viscount. However, he was not afraid of her at all when he saw her, nor did he want to approach him with bad intentions. He just performed magic by himself, and soon gathered a large number of friends around him.

In the banquet atmosphere where everyone was a little adult, imitating adults to pretend to be aristocratic, Yevlit's magic performance made all the children return to their innocent side.

He pierced everyone's masks and disguises, allowing everyone to show their most original and real appearance, and at the same time get happiness - this is Yevlit's magic and magic.

Princess Emerald admired him and even yearned for him.

That was the first time she mustered up the courage to approach her peers.

Then the man smiled and accepted her - as a friend.

That person didn't look at her with any strange eyes, just treated her normally, but this is what Princess Emerald wanted.

This is her friendship with Yefrit, not deep, but rare.

Princess Emerald cherishes this hard-earned friendship very much.

Although the two did not have many opportunities to meet after that, Yefrit would only participate in banquets that were difficult to refuse occasionally. Most of the time, he would stay in Magnolia, where he belonged - the Fairy Tail Guild that made him happy every time he talked about it, and made Princess Emerald look forward to it.
