Chapter 725 Dragon Hunting Competition
Chapter 725 Dragon Hunting Competition
"It happened suddenly. Today's special competition is to compete in dragon hunting!"
The Pumpkin Judge said in the air, "Today there are 10,000 dragons in the special magic space. This space can last for another four hours. As long as you can kill these 10,000 dragons within four hours, the disaster of my Fiore Kingdom will naturally be resolved."
"There is no limit on the number of guild members that can participate in this match, but I suggest that everyone do what they can. The dragon is fierce, so try to only send out elite members to deal with it, otherwise casualties are inevitable."
Judge Pumpkin continued, "At the end of the game, the guild that has hunted the most dragons will be crowned the first in this round, and will also receive a special thank you from the royal family."
Although the referee Pumpkin was reading out the rules, few spectators were listening carefully. The main reason was that they felt that such a dangerous matter, involving the life and death of a country, had a prize added to the competition, which was really not exciting.
However, some people think that since the kingdom is so calm about treating this as a competition, it means that things may not be that bad and they don’t need to be too scared.
At this time, the space players also received task reminders.
[Competitive Mission: Dragon King Festival]
Mission content: In the competition phase of the Dragon King Festival, try to hunt as many dragons as possible to obtain higher team points.
In the magic space, the pioneer's guild will get 1 team point for every ten dragons hunted, and players from different guilds are not allowed to attack each other.
If all players fail to kill all the dragons within 4 hours, the remaining dragons will escape from the magic space. For each dragon that escapes, all teams will deduct 10 team points.
The team with the least number of kills will be eliminated immediately, the team with the second least number of kills will have three times the team points deducted, and the team with the third least number of kills will have two times the team points deducted.
【Tip: Space players will take the middle value of the attribute. 】
Mission difficulty: Easy ~ Difficult
Mission Rewards: Different team points
Failure penalty: deduct different team points
The rules of this competition are not complicated. Everyone can participate, and dragons killed by indigenous members of the guild can also be counted.
It’s just like previous competitions, players from their space will participate, and in order to show a certain degree of fairness, their attributes will be synchronized.
In other words, Lu Li, Valkyrie and Silk Stocking Milk Tea, who originally had an attribute advantage over most dragons, will have their numerical advantages wiped out.
Even if a team is a bit dirty, deliberately sending in fifth-level explorers with low attributes will lower their overall attributes, causing them to fight hard when they encounter a powerful dragon.
It’s just that the space probably took this into consideration and set up special rules for failure so that individual teams cannot give up.
For some teams, deducting points doesn't matter, even if it's minus 10,000 points. The rules of the competition don't say that they have to lose at the end, so it's possible that they want to deliberately play badly to disgust the teams in front of them. If they lose, everyone will lose points together, and the points of teams like Lu Li and Valkyrie will be completely deducted.
Especially since the brawl shop had just come out, those who had some extra money spent it, and the teams behind them knew they couldn’t win, so they didn’t care anyway.
But with the rule of eliminating the last one, teams like Gorilla Fire and My Big Stick Is A Bit Thick dare not give up. After all, no one wants to be eliminated, and they are afraid that they will not be able to pass this round of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Competition.
As long as the people behind are willing to work hard, the teams in the middle and late stages will not have to give up, because they may be squeezed to the last place and can only actively participate in the competition.
Anyway, as long as we send out strong men to fight, killing a group of dragons is not a difficult task for the elite in the space. Even if we can earn a few tens of points, it is good.
In addition, everyone has seen the good things in the Space Brawl Store, and now they are all trying hard to score more points to exchange for their favorite items.
"Dragon hunting..."
Natsu's hands were ablaze with flames, "I'm already ablaze! I want to join the fight!"
"Whether it's for the sake of the guild or the country and the people, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
Gray spoke up.
"Really? You made such a big fuss, but it was just a short notice. Let me see how powerful the legendary dragon is."
Lacusas also stepped forward. Although he was not raised by a dragon, he had a dragon crystal and was considered a dragon slayer magician.
"Everyone, it's time to protect the country and the people."
Erza is full of righteousness. She has already changed into combat attire, ready to conquer the magic space.
The strong men in the Fairy Tail Guild stood up one after another. Gajeel, Wendy, Juvia, Mirajane, and Jellal also expressed their desire to enter the magic space to fight, but he wanted to fight as Mistgun, otherwise it would easily lead to subsequent reckoning by the Council.
Although others, such as Lucy, were also full of enthusiasm, they were suppressed by Lu Li.
These natives don’t have much knowledge, but creatures like dragons are quite powerful to them.
It's ok for Lucy to show off in her daily life, or fight with the same celestial wizard, but it takes a lot of effort to protect her in the Dragon King Festival where there are ten thousand dragons.
In terms of efficiency, it would be best if only a few of Lu Li's space elites were allowed to enter this battle, but his guildmates did not know that this was just part of the space brawl and truly believed that it was a matter of life and death for the country.
Therefore, it is impossible to let him go alone at this time. This does not involve the issue of trust, but the difference between big and small things. Everyone in Fairy Tail can still distinguish them.
The other guilds also quickly decided on their candidates and rushed straight to the magical space in the arena.
"Don't worry, future me. We are all very strong and will definitely survive this dragon disaster."
Lucy didn't feel any regret for not being able to fight, she was just comforting her future self.
"But... these are ten thousand dragons!"
Future Lucy looked worried, she didn't want to say it so bluntly.
In the future timeline she is in, Fairy Tail and other guilds also fought hard, but were eventually wiped out.
Moreover, at that time, the dragons were not trapped anywhere, they were flying everywhere and had no concentrated power.
Although the magic space has now trapped the dragons and bought time for the people in the real world, it has also gathered them together, making it more dangerous if they fight.
"Lucy, you have to trust your friends. Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy are dragon slayers. And Brother Lu, who joined the guild while we were asleep on Tenrou Island, is a dragon tamer. He will definitely defeat the dragons and protect everyone."
Lucy said this to herself, not only to comfort her future self, but also to strengthen her confidence.
"Brother Lu..."
Future Lucy looked at Lu Li who rushed into the magic space in a daze. She suddenly realized that something was wrong. "Huh? I remember that on the eve of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts, Brother Lu suddenly accepted a 100-year mission and went to another continent. Since then, there has been no news from him and he did not participate in the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Competition?"
"Is that right?"
Lucy was also a little surprised, "But Brother Lu has led the team to win three days of competitions, and we are currently in first place."
"what?"
Future Lucy was a little confused, "I remember we only started winning on the third day?" After she returned to her residence with Lucy last night, she was exhausted and felt safe after meeting her friends after a long time, so she fell asleep immediately. Therefore, she did not tell Lucy about what happened in the past few days.
Now hearing Lucy say that Fairy Tail was currently victorious, she suddenly felt that everything was messed up. The past she traveled to this time might not be the past she had experienced.
But even if it is different, what can change?
Ten thousand dragons still appeared. Faced with such a desperate gap in combat power, how could the magicians of the Fiore Guild be their opponents?
"It's strange, but Brother Lu is very strong. He took first place in the secret competition and also fought against a hundred monsters in the Demon Subduing Hall."
Lucy was a little confused and explained to Future Lucy.
Now Future Lucy opened her mouth wide, feeling even more strange, because she clearly remembered that in the Secret Tournament it was Gray who played and lost, and it was Erza who took the field and broke through the Demon Hall.
But now Lucy's words also gave her some hope, because in her line, she was not very familiar with Lu Li. She had only met him twice after returning to Tianlang Island, and she knew that he was a member of her own guild.
I didn't expect Lu Li to be so strong? Then, if he is here today, does he have a chance to lead everyone in Fairy Tail to escape unscathed?
Just as he was thinking this, a cry of surprise came from the audience, attracting the attention of the two Lucys, causing them to quickly look towards the magic space.
The organizers of the Great Magic Fighting Show were very considerate and provided various split screens in mid-air to broadcast the situation of each contestant in the magic space.
Because the interior of the magic space is huge, as big as the Kingdom of Fiore, each contestant landed in a different area when rushing into the space.
At this time, the two Lucys saw that the place where Lu Li was was the capital of Fiore in the magic space, surrounded by more than a dozen giant dragons.
Among them are fire dragons, water dragons, wood dragons and earth dragons, each one is ferocious and powerful.
I don’t know if it was Lu Li’s fault or just a coincidence, but he was the first person to encounter a giant dragon in the magic space, and he faced more than a dozen of them at once.
You have to know that although the dragons are big, Fiore is a vast country. It is not clear whether he should be said to be lucky or unlucky to encounter more than a dozen of them at a time.
Lu Li was seen standing in the ruins of the city. The surrounding terrain had changed due to the Earth Dragon's ability. The Fire Dragon's flames were still burning everywhere. Smoke and dust rolled by, floating on his clothes.
There were more than a dozen giant dragons, some on the ground and some circling in the air, looking down at the tiny Lu Li.
Lu Li remained calm and just grinned, "A Huo, dinner is ready."
The next moment, a huge red fire dragon appeared behind Lu Li. It looked mighty and majestic, and it let out a majestic dragon roar towards the many giant dragons.
Apparently Ah Huo also knew the situation well. When facing these giant dragons, it no longer communicated with them in friendly language, but instead made intimidating sounds.
This group of explorers who entered the magic space generally had high quality, but Lu Li's comprehensive attributes were also pulled down to 148 points. On the contrary, Ah Huo, Lu Li's pet, was not affected.
Lu Li's power from the animal realm can permanently enhance Ah Huo's power, allowing Ah Huo to directly break through the attribute barrier and reach the seventh-level realm of 151 points.
There are differences between dragons. The strength of the black dragon Akuro Nokia can reach the world's upper limit of difficulty, but ordinary dragons are considered strong for ordinary people, but their strength will not step into the seventh level.
Most dragons were still at the peak or late stage of the sixth level. The dragons surrounding Lu Li, for example, had comprehensive attributes between 148 and 150 points, and there were no seventh level master dragons.
Although Ah Huo looked a little fat at this time, he was quite brave when he fought.
It’s still a dragon, but it has an additional BOSS template, so it’s much tougher and very ferocious in close combat.
Ah Huo attacked and instantly bit off the neck of a wooden dragon, then rushed towards a fire dragon.
This mighty and domineering posture made many spectators cheer for Ah Huo's performance and marvel at the power of this dragon wizard of Fairy Tail.
"Lu...Brother Lu also has a dragon?"
Future Lucy was stunned when she saw this scene outside the field.
"do not you know?"
Modern Lucy tilted her head and said, "Brother Lu is a dragon tamer."
"Dragon Master?"
Future Lucy felt nervous because she had heard of this name before. The Rogue who was chasing her called himself a dragon wizard.
"Just watch. Ah Huo is very strong, but since Brother Lu was able to recapture Ah Huo, he must be even stronger."
There was admiration and trust in Lucy's eyes. Seeing that Ah Huo could deal with several dragons, she thought that perhaps Brother Lu could also deal with other dragons.
As they were talking, the dragons had already started attacking Lu Li.
Lu Li watched Ah Huo's battle and shook his head, "It's still not cooked enough. Let me cook it myself and you just need to eat."
As he spoke, Lu Li unsheathed the Demon Prisoner from his waist.
This was also the first time that all the audience at the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Show saw Lu Li draw his sword.
I saw a pitch-black blade light streaking across the sky, spreading out in a ring. The pitch-black ink mixed with dragon blood formed a huge circle between heaven and earth.
And the ten giant dragons that rushed towards Lu Li were all cut in half!
Dragon blood rain fell from the sky. The man in black clothes and black knife walked in the rain and stood on Ah Huo's dragon head, with his knife pointing to the north.
This scene was broadcast on the big screen, and the professional director also switched between close and long shots, making the visual impact extremely strong.
In addition, the audience of the Kingdom of Fiore were originally frightened and desperate because of the dragon disaster of ten thousand dragons. Now they were directly excited when they saw Lu Li kill so many legendary dragons with one sword.
For a while, cheers and shouts were heard in the stands.
Future Lucy was a little confused, and then she was ecstatic. She didn't expect that Brother Lu, whom she had no deep impression of, would be so strong!
The panic of the audience has now gradually calmed down, and they just clenched their fists, waiting for the result of the Dragon King Festival that will decide the fate of mankind.
In the magic space, the space elites of each family also began to encounter dragons. They used their own skills, and in front of Lucy's surprised eyes, they were able to fight back and forth with the dragons and even kill them.
At this moment, the Valkyrie of Mermaid Heel found a place where dragons gathered. Looking at the evil dragons burning the city, she had a cold look in her eyes and pressed one hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist.
