The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

On the road from Hams City to Demisor Magic Academy, figures of children shuttled in the wild.

On this section of the road, there are flat lands, hillsides, grasslands, woods, and rivers. Everywhere can be used as an ambush point and is an excellent hunting ground.

However, what is being fought for here today is not the prey, but the magic stone that can become a student of Demisol Magic Academy, the most famous magic academy in the Kingdom of Fiore.

At this time, in addition to the candidates, there was also a beautiful figure in this hunting ground, a tall and graceful woman with long black hair, cool white clothes, and holding a crystal ball.

The heart of the devil, one of the seven descendants of purgatory, Urrutia!

…

On the flying carpet, Kira and Hayberian looked at the candidates below.

The candidates do not all form groups and cliques, but more often, like the Ikaji people, they gather a few people of similar strength and walk together in twos and threes to alert each other, survey the terrain, and guard against sneak attacks. Of course, there are also many talented people who are brave, or lone rangers who can’t squeeze into the crowd.

The distance between the teams is not far, the nearest one is twenty or thirty meters, and the further one is only about a hundred meters. They probably have the idea of ​​"as long as there are many people here, the losing team will not dare to attack."

Farther away, there were several people who looked like college teachers looking at these candidates. Kira knew that they were arranged to monitor the candidates to prevent them from using magic vehicles or to ask for foreign aid.

Hayberian sat next to Kira, shaking the milk glass, seemingly leisurely and contented, but in fact, his heart was not as relaxed as he showed, but rather worried.

Ever since Kenas told him this morning that the devil's heart was about to attack Demisol Magic Academy, he had not been able to concentrate.

When Kenas received the news, the exam had already begun, and half of the 120 candidates who were carrying the magic stone had already left the city, not to mention that since last night, the candidates from the "failed group" had been ambushing the road one after another. The exam cannot be terminated.

They didn't know the purpose of the Devil's Heart, nor how they would attack. Based on the idea that "the dark guild has no lower limit," they could only divide their forces into two groups.

Cornas is the dean of the college and one of the Ten Saints. She should go back no matter what. Gulan has always been tough in the Council, and his attitude towards the Dark Guild is zero tolerance. When it comes to this kind of thing, I will do my best.

Therefore, Heibelien could only choose to protect the candidates; and since none of the three knew Kira's specific combat power, they assigned him the relatively safe task of protecting the candidates, and they were afraid that he was young and impulsive, knowing that After hearing the news, Hui ignored it and rushed directly to the college, causing accidents among the candidates, so he did not tell him the truth.

"coming!"

Hayberian, who was deep in thought, was awakened by Kira's voice. He thought that the devil's heart was really crazy and attacked these children. His expression immediately changed, his eyes shot out red light, and at the same time, the magic power on his body gathered, and he entered in an instant. combat status.

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing Kira's question, Hayberian realized that he was too sensitive. He shook his head and said, "It's nothing. What did you just say?"

Kira pointed underneath: "Those little guys from yesterday are here!"

Hayberian looked down, and sure enough, when the candidates were passing by the hillside, a small wave of people emerged from the other side of the hillside. It was those who had been eliminated yesterday.

"Everyone, come on!!"

Someone shouted, and this team of losers swarmed forward and instantly dispersed the marching army of candidates.

They had obviously been waiting and observing for a long time, and there were even people directing and cooperating with each other, just like well-trained bandits, bandits, and bandits, specifically targeting those candidates who were alone or with a small number of candidates.

For a time, all kinds of magic were flying on the hillside.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... This scene is simply more spectacular than the normal civil wars in the Fairy Tail Guild." Kira cursed in his heart, with a light smile on his face as he unconsciously clenched his fists, "Go... go up ah……"

Heibelien turned around and saw Kira's small fist, thinking that he was worried about the safety of the candidates, and couldn't help but secretly admired: "It seems that Mr. Kira is more stable. If Mr. Marklov is here, If you were here, you would have been shouting excitedly..."

When he thought of Marklov's style of watching the excitement like a child and not taking it too seriously, Heiberian found it incredible.

"It seems that not every wizard in Fairy Tail is like Mr. Marklov..."

If Kira knew what Heiberian was thinking, he would definitely not be able to help but laugh out loud and then praise him for his vision with a thumbs up.

On the chaotic hillside battlefield, bright magic arrays kept lighting up and disappearing, disappearing and lighting up again in the hands of young hands and in front of the short body. At the same time, the candidates' shouts shook the sky and the earth, rushing straight up. Yunxiao.

The strong impact of sight and sound made Kira feel unavoidable.

I don’t know how long it took, but a voice sounded: “I can’t hold it anymore, retreat quickly!”

After this sound, less than half of the people began to retreat in a certain direction.

"Oh~ I didn't expect that they had even thought about their retreat plan. It seems that there is a strategist among this group of people..." Kira showed an interested look on his face, "But it seems that some 'robbers' can't find their way. "

Kira noticed that several children ran in the wrong direction and lost the assistance of their teammates. They were caught and given a lesson.

The first raid in the third exam retreated quickly, probably because it was just the first wave of testing, but this method did work. Some people did grab the magic stone, and then...

The companions around you become enemies, and the enemies in front of you become companions.

The situation between the enemy and ourselves changes instantly!

It may be a bit harsh for these children who have little social experience to rely on their little brains to cope with such changes, but at any time, following the crowd and hiding in the crowd is the best way to defend themselves.

Those children who succeeded were like the wolves hiding in the husky team, temporarily avoiding the edge and waiting for the opportunity.

They are waiting, and when the next time the bandits attack, they will show their sharp teeth and claws again, attack the prey they have already targeted, and grab another magic stone.

Those candidates who were robbed of the magic stone, because they had to hold their own magic stone to pass the examination, chased after the person who had robbed the stone, stood up again and again, and were knocked down again and again, until they could no longer climb. Until you get up.

When they found out that the person they were chasing didn't have his magic stone in his hand, they all started biting like crazy dogs, hitting one after another until they forced the other person to reveal the magic stone in his hand.

"Poor child, when he saw that man didn't have his own stone in his hand, he must have been very heartbroken..."

Kira sighed while blowing the cool breeze in the sky, expressing deep sympathy for the examinee who beat people like a mad dog.

Hayberian didn't say a word. His focus was not on the candidates, but on other places along the way. His scarlet eyes moved like the eyes of a vampire, surveying the ground for disturbances in the sky, not letting go of any potential candidates. A place where people from the Dark Guild appear.

"More than three hours have passed since we came out of Hams City, and we haven't seen any suspicious people except candidates and college teachers." Heiberian pondered in his heart, "Don't the people in Devil's Heart have any plans?" Doing something to the students? If that’s the case, then we couldn’t be more lucky!”

"Just because of this, doesn't it mean that their main force is in the academy! Can it be supported by Dean Cornas and Speaker Gulan alone?"

While his thoughts were racing, the candidates below had already reached the next unfavorable terrain, the river.

"According to the map I bought yesterday, as long as we cross this river, we will only be half way to the end!"

The leader turned around and said to the friends behind him, "This river is very wide and deep. Please be careful when crossing the bridge later. Those guys are probably ambushing nearby, waiting for us." Launch a surprise attack when crossing the river!"

There is no established art of war in this world, and even if there is, these children probably don't know about it, so naturally they don't understand what "attacking halfway through" means, but they must know which terrain is unfavorable to them.

In front of him, a child asked: "Where did you go from just now?"

The tour leader didn’t know why he asked, so he repeated: “Bridge!”

The child pointed to the empty river behind him: "Where is the bridge?"

There is no bridge on this river, or in other words, there has been no bridge here since yesterday.
