Chapter 393 R System
A blue-haired young man wearing a hooded robe walked out of the shadows: "Did you bring it back, Warri?"
"Yes, Xio is responsible for guarding her." The angular man said, "Do you want to see her, Jellal? As a gentleman, be careful."
Jellal shook his head slightly: "Where is the Three-Feathered Crow?"
"There seemed to be a fierce battle and as we were leaving we heard a commotion on the other beach and Simon stayed behind to meet them."
"Idiot, I already said it was an obstruction, not an assassination." Jellal shook his head, "I can't wait until tomorrow, go prepare the ceremony now!"
"Now? Not ready yet?"
Jellal turned and left: "Notify everyone and pay attention to greet the guests. I will complete the rest of the preparations."
‘Rely on the strength of the Senate. Ha ha……'
…
At the Council Headquarters, nine council members entered the conference room one after another in a hurry.
Ullutiya, who came earlier, was talking to Belluno.
"Lord Belluno, you seemed to have released a dangerous prisoner a few days ago."
"It's just a young man who was led astray by Joseph. As long as he has the right person to teach him..." Belluno looked at Ullutiya, "Isn't this the time to talk about this?"
The grumpy Michelo asked impatiently: "Chiklein? It's so late, what on earth needs to trigger an emergency meeting?"
"Of course there is something important." Qikerein asked, "Where is the Speaker?"
"The Speaker cannot be contacted. This meeting will be chaired by me, who is the second seat." Oger motioned for everyone to take their seats, and then said to Chiklein,
"You can say it now. If it is not an important matter, I will apply to revoke your qualifications as a council member. Power is not something that children like you can use as toys!"
Oger never liked this frivolous young councilor.
To be able to rank among the Holy Ten simply because of his powerful magic power, and then to join the council based on the prestige of the Holy Ten, is simply too hasty.
"Then, I'll get straight to the point." Chiklein folded his hands on the table, put away his cynical expression, and became solemn in a rare moment, "Is the discovery of the R system considered an urgent matter?"
A simple word, but it shocked everyone: "What?!"
…
Rhodes was surprised: "The R system...isn't that the magic used to resurrect people?"
Simon, who was brought aboard together, nodded: "Yes, the price is a lot of magic power and a person with excellent qualifications as a living sacrifice."
Lucy was confused: "What? What are you talking about, what resurrection?"
Seeing that others were also confused, Rhodes had no choice but to explain: "The R system, full name Revive System, is a magic that uses a living person as a sacrifice to resurrect another person.
Its existence violates the purpose of magic and humanity, and is a taboo that is absolutely not allowed to be touched. Eight years ago, the Black Magic Order invested a lot of financial resources and established 7 R systems, but all of them were destroyed by the Senate. "
Lucy covered her mouth: "Use one person's life to exchange for another person's life...how can there be such magic?"
"As expected of a goblin strategist, he even knows this little-known information." Simon praised.
Although he had been beaten and was now tied up and under strict guard, this made him feel more at ease.
Powerful yet cautious, these people will be able to save Erza.
After receiving the compliment, Rhodes looked up at the sky, knowing that this matter had nothing to do with the goblin strategist.
Mira held Rhode's hand, and when Rhode looked over, she smiled and shook her head, her eyes full of emotion and fear.
Others may not know why Rhodes knows this, but she knows it all too well.
She didn't know that Rhodes had secretly made so many efforts for her, even investigating such dangerous magic.
Fortunately, fortunately, Rhodes did not touch the taboo rashly, otherwise Mira would never be able to forgive herself.
It's not convenient to say this now. You must make it clear to him later and you can't do such stupid things.
Gray understood the key point: "You said Erza and Habi will be used as living sacrifices to resurrect someone?"
"No, Erza was taken away as a sacrifice. The kitten named Happy, probably because one of my companions likes cats."
"Huh? You want to kidnap Happy just because you like him?" Natsu said angrily, "Won't that guy hatch eggs by himself?!"
"Hatch...hatching eggs?" Simon wondered if he had been in the tower for too long and couldn't keep up with the thinking of people outside.
"Natsu, pay attention to the course and don't look back." Rhode reminded, and then said to Simon, "Tell me, why are you targeting Erza?"
Now two river crabs are pulling two small wooden boats side by side and sailing on the sea.
Rod and Mira rode with Simon and were responsible for interrogating and guarding him.
Gray, Lucy and Juvia were on the same boat, and Natsu was riding the river crab in front, responsible for smelling the way.
Simon had just stated the purpose of kidnapping Erza, and also used the magic used by his companions, which was basically consistent with what Lucy and Natsu described.
The one using the cubes was fine, but the black-skinned boy using card magic and the cat-eared girl using restraint magic were in trouble.
A person who can put people into cards when they are not prepared will have a hard time getting out without some means to deal with the space system.
The other one can shoot a rope with a sealing magic effect, which is equivalent to bringing a magic sealing stone. If she plots against him, he will almost definitely lose.
If these two people attacked the defenseless Erza, it is not impossible to kidnap her. Besides, they took Lucy as hostage first.
However, according to Simon, there may be other reasons why Erza did not want to resist.
"Eight years ago, we, including Erza, were captured by the Black Magic Cult and used as laborers to build the R system. At that time, we were still young, hungry and cold every day, forced to work, and often abused."
"Because we couldn't bear it, we decided to escape, but we were found on the way. It was Jellal who stood up to take responsibility, but those people took Erza away."
"When Erza was beaten to death, it was Jellal who broke out of the cell and killed three guards before being knocked down and punished for her."
Speaking of this, Simon was somewhat unwilling. If possible, he hoped that the person who stood up bravely would be himself.
It doesn't matter if he was beaten to pieces and all the bones in his body were broken.
Everyone thought that this man named Jellal was quite powerful. When he was still a child, he could actually kill three adult guards.
And he didn't know magic at that time!
"We couldn't stand it anymore, so we started a resistance under the leadership of Erza. People kept getting injured and fell down, and Grandpa Rob also sacrificed himself to protect us."
Simon looked at the people in front of him and said sadly, "He has the same emblem on his back as you."
"What?!"
