"It's okay, Xia Lulu." Wendy was still crying a little, "Mr. Rhodes has the magic to help me restore my magic power, so it's okay."

Xia Lulu said in surprise: "Can you restore your magic power? Why did you last time..."

"I was so exhausted last time." Rhodes said helplessly, "Let's not mention this for now, have you discovered anything?"

Xia Lulu said: "It looks like an ordinary town, nothing special."

"Love! Xia Lulu is right. But..." Habi hesitated a little.

Erza asked, "But what?"

Habi looked at Xia Lulu and said, "We seem to have seen a strange light."

Xia Lulu folded her hands and said, "As I said, what does the light so far away have to do with this place?"

There were no other clues anyway, so Rhodes asked one more question: "What kind of light is it and in which direction?"

"It's the light that shines on the mountain. It's purple, gold, and blue again. It changes back and forth."

Hubby tried to remember for a while, pointed to the north and said, "The direction is over there."

Rhodes and Erza looked at each other. Isn't that the direction of the altar of the Black Magic Order?

Rhodes waved his hand: "Summon, Canyon Swift Crab!"

Erza followed him and jumped on the crab's back: "Xia Lulu, you and Wendy go back to the hotel to rest first! Habi, where is Natsu?"

"Natsu said he smelled the smell of being beaten and ran out of town. The direction... eh~~~!!!"

Happy squeezed his face with both hands, looking shocked, "It seems to be in that direction too! Why? Did Natsu burn the mountain?"

"It might be more troublesome than burning the mountain." Rhode said, "Anyway, let's go check on Wendy and Xia Lulu first. Remember, if there is anything unusual, we don't have to wait for us to leave immediately."

After Rhodes gave the order, the river crab immediately started running.

Hubby spread his wings and chased after him: "Wait, we are going too!"

Thinking that Natsu might have gone to a dangerous place, Habib couldn't even care about Xia Lulu.

"Hey, what's over there?" Xia Lulu said dissatisfied, "Really, they are all talking to themselves."

Xia Lulu had some bad guesses. The black magic sect and demons mentioned earlier were not over there, right?

Wendy watched them leave and hesitated before saying, "Xia Lulu, let's go back. I have something I want to verify."

"Even Wendy is like this..." Xia Lulu felt that Wendy had learned from Fairy Tail, "Let's make a deal first. If there is any danger, I will take you away immediately."

…

Where the mountains and sea meet on the north coast, among the mountains less than ten kilometers southeast.

There was originally an altar here, but it was first destroyed by Erza's evil-destroying spear, and then the magician invited by the Senate drew a magic circle seal.

Later, earth magicians were invited to use magic here to change the terrain, filling the valley into a hill.

There are also illusion magicians who have set up illusion formations that ordinary people cannot get close to.

In addition, people are regularly dispatched to patrol the surrounding mountains to investigate suspicious persons. Under various insurances, the possibility of the devil's resurrection has been repeatedly reduced.

In fact, the once-and-for-all solution is to summon the demon and defeat it completely, but various information shows that in order to summon this man-eating demon, the body and soul of a child must be used as a sacrifice.

The Senate was unable to do such a thing of harming children, and was unwilling to perform such black magic, so it had no choice but to settle for the next best thing. And now, a reckless guy was running rampant outside the phantom formation.

"I'm so annoyed! Why are you back to the same place?!"

Natsu scratched his hair and banged the big rock next to him twice to vent his anger.

He obviously smelled someone who deserved a beating nearby and wanted to go over and have a fight, but he always found himself back where he was as he walked.

Very angry.

Natsu touched his fists, and fire burst out: "In this case, why not..."

"Natsu!"

The familiar voice made Natsu's body stiffen, and cold sweat flowed down his face:

"Ai Ai ... Ailusa? I am not going to destroy it! Ahaha, ahahahaha ..."

Rhodes laughed dumbly, he was just asking for it.

"Natsu, are you okay?" Habi flew to Natsu's shoulder, "We thought you were going to burn the mountain down."

Natsu said with a guilty conscience: "How could I possibly do something like that, hahahaha!"

Erza did not pursue Natsu's reckless thoughts and asked, "Did you find anything when you came here suddenly?"

Natsu became more serious: "I always feel a strange smell, and it was glowing inside before. Isn't that the demon you were talking about inside?"

"There was only one altar here before, and it was smashed by Erza. The Council sent people to deal with it. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any strange smell? And why does the good one glow?"

Rhodes tried picking up the Shadow Wolf on the road and didn't smell any special smell at all.

And how could such a far away place have anything to do with Liz’s illness?

Is there magic that can kill targets from a distance?

Happy hid behind Natsu with some fear: "Ai Yi... is the devil coming out of hell?"

Erza muttered: "We can't rule out the possibility of some factors causing the seal to loosen and the demon to resurrect. We have to see it with our own eyes."

"But it's impossible to get through at all!" Natsu was a little irritable, "You can't go very far before you come back here!"

"There is an illusion magic circle set up nearby, which can affect people's sense of direction unknowingly. This method..." Erza evaluated it, "It may only be slightly worse than the level of Mist Gang."

Natsu covered his head with his hands, and his cherry-colored hair was messed up by him: "Is Mystergon stronger than the person who did this? Then how to defeat him?"

Natsu is not afraid of fighting, but if he can't even touch the corners of his opponent's clothes, then how can he fight?

How can he become an S-class mage if he doesn't defeat Mist Gang?

Erza asked: "Rhode, what would you do if it were you?"

"No matter what kind of magic circle it is, it requires magic power to maintain it. Generally, it can be lifted by defeating the caster."

"However, this kind of magic array obviously needs to be maintained for a long time. Compared with the formal sealing array, it is unlikely that the caster will always bear the magic power. Then it should be powered by magic crystal, or use a living body to connect the magic will

The burden of magic is passed on to someone important in the Senate."

"As for the illusion magic circle, the first possibility is more likely, and in order to continue to operate, it should use magic crystals that can collect and 'charge' the surrounding magic by itself."

"The simplest way is to just blast them randomly and smash the mountains, trees, and rocks into pieces. Sooner or later, you will be able to break the magic crystal and dispel the phantom formation."

Aren't you going to cause destruction? Natsu suddenly became excited: "Leave this kind of thing to me!"

Rhodes grabbed him and said, "Don't make trouble. We are just here to take a look, not to destroy. That kind of magic crystal is very expensive."
