Simulation: Start with one person

For some S-level tasks, no matter how sufficient the relevant information is, it will not bring any help to the task.

At most, it’s just to make people quit when faced with difficulties~

"Don't you know..." Fang Rui did not continue to ask, but changed to another topic, "President Makarov, do you know where some of the more dangerous monsters are entrenched?"

"Of course the prerequisite is...that the current team can solve it."

"Find it yourself." Makarov refused to answer the question.

Chapter 305 S-Class Mission

As the night grew darker, the RV version of the Magic Four-Wheeler parked next to a huge rock. It did not turn on the defense mode. Instead, one person was responsible for the night watch while the others rested.

The person on duty tonight was Gray. He sat in the driver's seat and looked at the night scene outside the glass window without saying a word.

The second floor of the RV, where the bedrooms are located.

Since the RV was not designed to carry so many people when it was first built, there was only one bedroom.

So Makarov slept on the sofa on the first floor, and the bedroom belonged to Lucy and Erza. As for Fang Rui...

In his study, he was studying the magic flute "Larabai" and carefully exploring the structure of the magic flute.

Feeling the external energy rushing through the body, the magic flute did not dare to show the slightest expression...

Because the guy playing with it is ridiculously strong.

"So that's how it is..." Fang Rui put the magic flute on the table, thoughtfully.

After a period of research, Fang Rui understood a little bit about Zeref's method of creating demons.

Zeref, whose full name is Zeref Dragneel, is known as the "ancestor of the black magicians". In terms of personal combat power, he is undoubtedly among the top five in the world, and in terms of knowledge, he is also among the top in the world. Damn it, there is no problem in saying "top five in the world".

After all, he was called a genius when he was young. He delved too deeply into various forbidden knowledge and was cursed by the god Anxeram. This is enough to illustrate his knowledge.

After hundreds of years of accumulation, knowledge may have been further advanced.

Even if he doesn't learn new knowledge, just some insights can bring about a lot of improvement.

Of course, there is no need to delve into how advanced Zeref's knowledge is now, because it has nothing to do with this matter, but it is difficult to prove.

It was mentioned earlier that Zeref was cursed by the god Anxelam precisely because his research touched the taboo between life and death. To be precise, he had successfully broken the taboo... He had mastered the ability to create life.

After all, the devil was in front of him.

"It's quite profound knowledge. If you want to study it thoroughly, you can't do it in a short while. How about..."

"Can you ask me in person?"

Thinking like this, Fang Rui turned his gaze to the glass window and looked at the starry sky outside the window.

Calculating...

"Huh? You're actually already at Tianrou Island~"

Fang Rui's tone was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zeref would already be on Sirius Island at this time.

"Some trouble."

Tenrou Island, as the holy land of the Magisters Guild "Fairy Tail", ordinary people...cannot board it...

It doesn't seem right either...

He seemed...not to understand the rules of Tenrou Island at all.

Moreover, it is not convenient to ask casual questions regarding the secrets of the Magisters Guild.

"emmm..."

"Speaking of which, Tenrou Island is on the sea! Karna Island is also on the sea! How about getting lost?"

"Seems like... a good idea?"

After muttering to himself for a while, Fang Rui chose to give up thinking. He seemed to have no better idea~

"Send your clone to find Zeref!"

A piece of hair fell slowly, flew out the window on the wind, and disappeared into the vast night.

"It always feels like..."

Gently brushing his black hair, Fang Rui complained: "...There is a danger of baldness!"

………………

The next day, the group returned to the guild, accepted the S-level mission, and set out again...

Arrive at the port and take the magic ship provided by Fang Rui to Karna Island...

"Speaking of which, do you know where Karna Island is?!"

After driving the magic ship for a certain distance, Fang Rui noticed something was wrong. He seemed to have seen the same island three times. It must be my... illusion, right? !

Fang Rui, with a bad premonition lingering in his heart, looked at Erza, who was responsible for guiding the way, hoping to get a positive answer from her.

"I don't know..." Erza closed her eyes, lowered her head, and admitted her mistake.

"It's my fault, so give me a good beating first!"

"No, you should have told me if you didn't know the road!" Hearing this, Fang Rui was speechless.

Seeing how confident you are when giving directions, I thought you knew the way~

In this case, the reason why we saw the same island...

Are you trying to find the road and turning in circles?

This method may not be useful on land, let alone at sea.

Sighing, Fang Rui turned his eyes to Gray and Lucy: "Do you know where Karna Island is?"

The two shook their heads simultaneously, highlighting a tacit understanding.

"So... do you know which direction to go back to the port?"

The two shook their heads in sync again, once again highlighting a tacit understanding.

'ah!What about unexpected opportunities~'

'It's an opportunity to act out a way of getting lost, and get lost directly to Tenrou Island~'

To complain, Fang Rui did not take action in the end, but handed over the helm to Erza.

"It's just a matter of luck, just drive as you please."

After saying that, Fang Rui left the cab, came to the deck, took out the fishing rod, and started fishing.

Don’t say it~ Let’s show off!

After that, the magic ship began its lost journey.

after an hour……

The number of open-minded people increases by one.

Gray sat next to Fang Rui, also holding a fishing rod, looking into the distance and watching the changing scenery.

After becoming completely disoriented, Gray had given up on giving directions.

"Fang Rui, how long do you think we will be lost?"

"Let's see when Erza gives up."

Fang Rui lightly shrugged. As long as Erza gave up the idea of ​​finding Karna Island by chance and headed straight in one direction, she would be able to reach land sooner or later.

And at night, he can use the stars to divine the location of Karna Island.

"Is that so..."

Not paying attention to the conversation between the two, Habi's eyes were fixed on the fishing rod: "Hey, Fang Rui, Gray, haven't the fish taken the bait yet?"

"No oh~"

Fang Rui explained: "The ship is moving too fast, which has some impact."

"...The speed is indeed quite fast."

Gray agreed, and as Erza became more and more furious, the ship's speed continued to gradually increase.

"Ugh..." Natsu, who was lying on the railing, agreed.

Another half hour later, Erza, who was lost, happened to encounter a pirate ship. After a friendly exchange, the pirates expressed their willingness to lead the way.

So, after several hours of getting lost, the magic ship finally found the correct route.

A few hours later, Natsu and others arrived at Karna Island.

Due to the long ride on the vehicle, Natsu still needs to recuperate for a period of time before he can return to normal even after leaving the vehicle.

Therefore, Natsu was supported by Gray.

The group of people walked along the road and arrived at a village built in the mountains.

The village is surrounded by defense facilities, but in Fang Rui's opinion, the defenses should be quite poor. A slightly more destructive attack magic should be able to destroy it...

On the watchtowers at both ends of the village gate, there is a villager standing guard.

The villagers found several people near the village gate and sent a message to the villagers guarding the wooden wall. Some of the people who received the message followed the passage on the wall to the top of the village gate and looked down at the few people in front of the village gate.

"who?!"

The words of inquiry came from above.

"We are the magicians of Fairy Tail. We are here to handle the request."

Lucy looked up at the two figures on the city wall and explained the identities of herself and others.

The two villagers on the city wall looked at each other for a while, then turned their gaze back to the open space in front of the village gate and said, "Fairy Tail? We didn't receive the notification of accepting the commission!"

"The notification letter is here with me." Erza took out a letter from her pocket and explained amidst the dull eyes of everyone, "When we set off, I thought that we should arrive in Ga before the messenger. Erna Island…”

"Got it~" Fang Rui snapped his fingers, already understanding what Erza meant.

Karna Island is an S-level mission location. It is impossible to deliver letters by conventional delivery methods. There are only magic tools and magical beasts specially used for delivering letters.

Magic tools are not available in the village that issued the request.
