Fairy Tail: I Don’t Want to Be the President

Chapter 395 The war begins

The other party's big ship may be equipped with some magic props, but after chasing it for most of the night, they still haven't caught it.

The red sun had already set when they set out, and now the sky in the distance was getting slightly brighter.

Everyone could see the outline of the mountains in the distance and a conspicuous shadow piercing the clouds.

Simon looked at the huge black shadow: "That's the Tower of Paradise."

Lucy exclaimed: "So high!"

Simon said: "Of course, because it's a thousand meters."

The height of one thousand meters is equivalent to hundreds of floors, about the height of two Oriental Pearl Towers.

The fact that the building took eight years to complete is already quite impressive, not to mention that during the construction process, magic arrays, magic crystals and other things were arranged to form the R system.

It should be said that he is worthy of being a fanatical believer of Zeref.

Rhodes calculated the distance and course for the night and felt like he was going abroad again.

Rhodes recalled the map he had seen: "The Tower of Paradise is built offshore of the Kingdom of Ka-Elum?"

The Kingdom of Ka-Elum is a large island with developed shipping industry. It is said that it also has a powerful naval force. There are often conflicts with the Kingdom of Mina in the northeast.

However, since the Kingdom of Fiore is a neutral country, it has trade relations with both countries.

It's just that pirates often appear in this area, the scenery and specialties are not outstanding, and it is not a regular route drawn between the three countries, so few merchant ships pass by. Tourists rarely come and go.

In addition, the shore is covered by mountains and is deserted for hundreds of miles, so the Black Magic Order must have carefully considered it when they chose to build the R system here.

Regarding the geographical location, Simon couldn't give an answer: "Because I haven't left since I was captured as a child, so I don't know which country this is."

Simon and his companions have been living in the Tower of Paradise. Apart from working and sleeping every day, they mostly learn about magic and have no idea about some of them.

The news about Erza was probably revealed by Jellal intentionally to deepen the hatred in their hearts.

If they were released into society, their ability to survive would probably be only slightly better than that of Rhodes when he first arrived.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know where you are. How many people are in the tower, where Jellal lives, and where the ceremony is held. You should know these, right?"

"Ah, yes. In addition to Wally and Miliana, there were originally workers and hundreds of guards in the tower."

"original?"

"Yes, just a few days ago, the laborers were temporarily sent away. Gerald said that too many people present would hinder the ceremony."

"The official start time of the ceremony should be tomorrow at noon. At that time, the guards will also be asked to go to the tower to wait for Zeref's arrival."

It saved a lot of trouble, Rhodes asked: "Is there a surveillance magic crystal in the tower?"

"Yes, and there are many." Simon said, "Everything that happens in the tower is under Jellal's control."

"Okay." Rhodes asked, "How is everyone's magic power and physical strength?"

Mira: "It has been restored."

Gray: "No problem!"

Natsu: "You can have a big fight at any time!"

Juvia: "Juvia will definitely help."

Lucy: "I...I will try my best."

Seeing that he was about to enter the reconnaissance range of the Paradise Tower, Gray made a large platform out of ice, and Rhodes summoned the Void Brood Insect.

When in doubt, detonate troops first.

Juvia used magic to create a one-way water film to hide everyone's traces.

The plan for this operation was quite simple. Natsu would take the lead and create a scene at the main entrance of Paradise Tower to attract as much attention as possible.

They're good at this.

Simon was temporarily used as a hostage to see if he could be exchanged for Habib. Erza would definitely not be handed over and could only be exchanged for Habib. As long as Habib can be exchanged for it, it doesn't matter if Simon can help instigate his companions.

Anyway, there are still worms to supplement the troops.

Rhodes and Mira were responsible for flying into the air, sneaking in from the top or body of the tower, and leaving after finding Erza. The matter of demolishing the tower was left to Worm and Pioneer.

The worst-case scenario expected was to confront Jellal before rescuing Erza.

Although Simon said that person was very strong, he didn't seem to have any idea of ​​how strong he was.

There is nothing Rhode can do. Erza may be in danger at any time. No matter how strong the enemy is, they will be able to defeat her.

Even if they were Saint Ten, he and Mira would not have no ability to resist at all.

The Tower of Paradise was getting closer and closer, and Rhodes stretched out a hand.

Mira put her hand on the back of his hand, followed by Lucy, Natsu, Gray, and (with red eyes) Juvia.

"Fairy Tail..."

"Must win!"

Simon shook his tied hands. He really wanted to join in, but he was too embarrassed to speak and there was no one to help loosen the bonds.

"Act." Rhodes summoned the golem, added the Crown of Insight to him and Mira, and then received the Shadow Wolf. Next, he had to rely on his sense of smell to find Erza.

Mira hugged Rhode's waist from behind, received the Soul of Satan, flapped her wings on her back, and flew upward with Rhode.

Not hugging the princess might be because he wanted to save Rhodes some face in front of his companions.

Juvia added a layer of water film to the two of them, trying to cover them up for a while, hoping that when they were in the air, people would mistake them for strange birds.

"Come on!" Natsu tugged on the crabs' tentacles, urging them to swim quickly toward the shore.

The water film disappeared, and several people landed directly on the island from the front.

Viewed from a distance, the Tower of Paradise looks like a strange tree covered with vines.

But when you get closer, you can see clearly that each 'tree vine' is a pipe made of unknown materials that is thicker than a human being.

The entire island is its 'roots'. Various pipes are spread all over the island, some of which are intertwined with each other, making it chaotic and disorderly.

Such a huge building looks like a joke and has no plan. But it looks quite like a wasteland machine.

Although it was still dark, as soon as the boat docked, the lights of the island came over. The guard immediately spotted them and shouted, "Who is it!"

It is both inquiring about the identity of strangers and reporting news to companions.

Natsu couldn't wait to jump onto the shore, shouting: "Bring Erza and Happy back!"

"Intruder! It's an intruder!"

The guards yelled and tried to rally their companions.

The few people who landed were not in a hurry to attack, but allowed these people to gather.

Gray was one step behind his companions and put his hand on the sea to create an ice road leading directly to the ice platform where the three brood worms were.

In less than ten minutes, more than 500 worms have been born. They are jumping uneasily on the increasingly crowded platform, not daring to run around because of the mother worm's order.

As soon as the ice road connected to the platform, the three female worms looked up and roared. The blue-purple worms happily jumped onto the ice road and rushed towards the building that looked big and delicious.

"I can't bear it anymore!" Natsu looked at the enemies surrounding him, touched his fists, and puffed up his cheeks, "The roar of the fire dragon!"

The fire lit up the night sky on the island, announcing the beginning of the battle.

The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel. With a thousand-meter-high tower, in eight years, I can’t see the Ka-Elum Kingdom no matter what...

Before the Council launches the magical elf power, it will also discuss the legal issues of launching an attack there, which shows that it is not a small country that can be slaughtered by others...

How strange o(╥﹏╥)o
