Chapter 371 Fatal Blow
Seeing what Natsu and Gray were carrying, several possibilities flashed through Rhode's mind.
Is it true that in order to clean up a few gangsters, the billiard hall was destroyed until only two tables were left?
"Welcome back, you've had a hard job." Mira greeted Lucy with a smile, "Did it go well this time?"
Lucy nodded: "How should I put it? Although the solution is a little different from what I imagined, at least the rent is enough."
"I always feel like something interesting happened." Mira poured Lucy a drink.
"Look, this is how billiards should be played!" Natsu shouted at the right time, "Oh!"
Bang! Snap!
The white ball was knocked out by Natsu, crashed through the pile of colored balls, broke the bottom box, flew outside the table, and broke the legs of the stool Lucy was sitting on without losing force.
"Yeah~" Lucy screamed and fell to the ground, picked up the white ball and threw it back, "Natsu!"
"Ah, thank you Lucy." Natsu caught the white ball easily. Lucy was very considerate and didn't need him to pick up the ball.
"I'm not helping you!"
Natsu had already given the white ball to Gray: "We only broke 6 of them, Gray, it's your turn."
Habi praised: "As expected of Natsu."
Gray argued: "Nonsense, only five of them were broken!"
"The gameplay is completely wrong!" Lucy couldn't stand these two people and walked over angrily, "You guys have been in the billiard hall for several days and haven't learned any rules?!"
There was a lot of noise there, and Rhodes just looked up at the sky.
Mira put her hands on Rhodes' shoulders and leaned forward against him, letting Rhodes' arms be swallowed by the abyss.
She smiled and asked in Rhode's ear: "What color?"
"B...I don't know if it will rain. Let's build a shelter later. It can also provide shade." Rhodes chose to play dumb and turned his head to look at Mira's big eyes, "What do you mean? What?"
Mira looked sad: "It turns out that when I talked to you, you didn't even pay attention."
"No, I..." Rhodes was a little panicked.
You're careless, why are you using this trick?
Mira chuckled: "You're just kidding, you don't have to be like this, you didn't mean to see it."
Just when Rhodes breathed a sigh of relief, he heard her ask again: "So what color is it?"
"I don't know, I didn't see it."
Even if the King of Heaven and I came today, he didn't see it either.
Mira finally let him go. She might not care much about this kind of thing, but it was fun to make trouble like this.
…
Lucy, who had suffered a terrible disaster, originally wanted to reason with Natsu, but was obviously misunderstood.
"Huh? Does Lucy want to participate too?" Gray wiped the club head with shell powder seemingly professionally.
"Come on, I'm making a bet with Natsu. The loser just has to take off one piece of clothing."
"No! Why do you want to bet on something like this? You don't even understand the basic rules, do you? And you only have one piece of clothing left!"
"What does the rules matter? Just have fun. Watch the moves!" Gray used the same powerful hitting technique as Natsu.
This time, the white ball crashed through the side bank and hit Macao's vital point from behind.
Macao fell down with the cart, and the stones in the cart rolled to the ground.
A penetrating scream resounded throughout the construction site, and Rhodes even thought he heard Tom Cat's cry.
Seeing Macao's posture, Rhodes felt strong sympathy in his heart, and was even so scared that he wanted to hug Mira.
"Ah la..." Mira covered her mouth. Although she felt a little sympathetic to Macao, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
When she saw Rhode's facial features that were about to wrinkle together, she gently patted his back to express comfort.
If anyone dares to do such a thing to Rhodes... let someone know why she is called a devil.
Fortunately, Macao was a powerful veteran mage, so there was no serious problem after he regained his breath.
But anyone who suffers such an attack will be unable to hold back his anger: "You stinky brats!"
He lifted the rocks on the ground and threw them at Gray and Natsu, then took some awkward steps to fight.
"Run Lucy!"
The two of them ran away, and Natsu didn't forget to drag Lucy with him. It wasn't that they couldn't beat her, but they felt guilty for doing this.
Lucy was dragged out of the construction site by Natsu in a daze, and then she realized: "Why should I run with him!"
Fairy Tail is always like this, even if the building is destroyed, as long as the guild is still there, there will be no lack of excitement.
…
Rod may be a crow's mouth, and it actually rained that night when he said it was going to rain.
There was lightning and thunder in the middle of the night. After being awakened, Rhodes lay on the window and watched the thunder and lightning for a short time. Then he jumped out of the window, turned his hands into the wings of a sharp-beaked bird, flapped them violently a few times, and went straight to the guild. Location.
Fortunately, enough tarpaulins were prepared, otherwise there might be trouble with so much wood soaked in water.
He ran as fast as he could with a tarpaulin to cover a pile of wood, and placed stones on the top and corners to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
While busy, I saw someone running towards the guild again.
First there were the girls such as Erza, Lucky, and Bisca who lived in the girls' dormitory, then Mira, and then the attentive and reliable people such as Gray, Macao, and Wakaba.
Everyone unexpectedly gathered together and smiled at each other.
There is no need to say anything at this time, Rhodes urged: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Everyone immediately got busy and covered all the places that needed to be covered. The low pressure and sultry heat before the thunderstorm made everyone sweat.
There was another muffled thunder in the sky, and the big raindrops fell, hitting the rainproof cloth with a clacking sound, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a downpour.
A group of people crowded in the tent behind the temporary counter, looking at the rain curtain in the middle of the night, looking at the small lights in the rainy night, and showing a relaxed smile.
Rhodes put a coat on Mira, wrapped her cool nightgown, and then pointed to a top submerged in muddy water: "Gray, do you think that lump looks like your clothes?"
Gray first looked at his naked upper body and covered his head: "Oh no!"
"Ice shape · fishing rod!"
Gray threw out the fishing rod, and an ice hook was connected to the thin ice line below, successfully hooking the clothes back.
I don't understand why his thin ice silk can hook a piece of clothing in the heavy rain without breaking.
Maybe this is magic, shape magic.
Wakaba said with a headache: "Although the wood is saved, I will definitely get wet when I go back. My wife will scold me when I get home."
Macao suggested: "Since we are out, let's just have a drink here and wait for the rain to subside before going back."
Bisca asked: "What if it continues to rain like this?"
Macao waved his hand: "Then drink until dawn and start working directly!"
"What about Romeo?" Wakaba was more concerned about Macao's son.
"It's okay, he sleeps soundly, and he's not a four or five-year-old child anymore, so he's not afraid of thunder."
That's right, Romeo is six years old this year, and he's really not a four or five-year-old child.
The two uncles took the lead in moving things in the tent to make room, and then encouraged Laqi to make a simple table and stool.
As soon as he sat down, he slapped the table arrogantly: "Rod, we have to work overtime today!"
"Okay, okay, since you still care about the guild."
Rod moved the beer barrels and took some Poro delicacies from the dressing space for everyone to drink with - those were all rations prepared for Worm, so he would use them first and restock them tomorrow.
Everyone sat around a table and raised their glasses together:
"For the carnival on a rainy night!"
"For forcing Rod to work overtime for the first time!"
"For the new guild!"
"Cheers!"
