Ye Yu traveled to Fairy Tail and became a rookie wizard.
He struggled to survive with the help of his reincarnation memories and the flames of the void.
After meeting Fairy Tail member Yanagi Yuki, he actively seeks out powerful powers.
However, fate played a trick on him and he was exiled because of the slander.
However, he was not discouraged. During his exile, he used the Flame of the Void to devour fire magic to strengthen his physique, and continued to climb up the Fairy Tail wizard level system, moving towards the strongest.
Fairy Tail: Growing into the Strongest Entei
Chapter 1: First Visit to Fairy Tail
“Who are you, you little brat? How dare you cause trouble in Fairy Tail?” A burly man with a face full of flesh stopped Ye Yu, his saliva almost spraying on his face.
Ye Yu looked around, and the unfamiliar environment made him feel alarmed.
Fairy Tail?
Isn t this the anime I stayed up late to watch?
I actually traveled through time!
Now is not the time to be idle, I have to find a way to get in first.
He rubbed his temples, trying to digest this sudden change.
The guild’s gate was just around the corner, and a loud noise came from inside, mixed with the explosion of magic colliding, which made him feel a little eager and a little uneasy.
He had to enter the guild before sunset today, otherwise sleeping on the streets would be no joke.
“I’m not here to cause trouble,” Ye Yu suppressed the panic in his heart and explained calmly, “I want to join Fairy Tail.” Several guild members burst into laughter, as if they had heard a huge joke.
“Just you? You want to join Fairy Tail when you haven’t even grown all your hair yet? Defeat us first!”
Just when they thought Ye Yu would beg, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, “I know that there is a barrel of century-old rum hidden in the guild warehouse, and Miss Mirajane’s pajamas are actually…” As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell silent.
At this time, a short but imposing old man walked out. He was the president of Fairy Tail, Makarov.
He glanced at Ye Yu with sharp eyes and said slowly: “Young man, you are very interesting. I will give you a chance to prove yourself.”
Ye Yu was secretly delighted that the first step of the plan was successful!
He took a deep breath and said calmly, “President, please enlighten me.”
Makarov stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Young man, since you want to join Fairy Tail, you must first pass the test of our guild members.” Before he finished speaking, a young man with fiery red hair rushed out from the crowd. It was Natsu.
He pointed at Ye Yu and shouted, “Come on, let me see what you are capable of! Do you dare to fight me?”
Ye Yu thought to himself: You came just in time.
He originally wanted to keep a low profile, but this guy was obviously a battle maniac and there was no way he could hide from him.
“I don’t really want to fight…” Ye Yu tried to resolve the situation peacefully, but Natsu didn’t listen at all and threw a fireball at him.
“Stop talking nonsense! Come and fight if you’re a man!”
The surrounding guild members shouted excitedly, each waiting to see Ye Yu make a fool of himself.
Mirajane crossed her arms, watching the scene with interest, while Lucy looked at Ye Yu with a worried look on her face.
Gray snorted coldly at the side: “You don’t know your own limitations.”
Natsu’s fireball was extremely fast and came towards him with scorching heat.
Ye Yu was prepared and easily dodged it by turning sideways.
“Although Natsu’s fireball magic is powerful, its accuracy is poor and it is easily restrained by wind magic…” Ye Yu silently recited the knowledge he learned from the anime in his heart, while forming seals with his hands, and a layer of black flames ignited on his body.
This is the ability he awakened after crossing over – Flame of the Void.
“What?!” Natsu was stunned when he saw this. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be able to dodge his attack so easily.
“Take my punch!” Natsu roared and rushed forward again.
However, when his fist hit the black flames on Ye Yu’s body, it was like hitting cotton and did not cause any damage.
“What kind of magic is this?!” Natsu widened his eyes in disbelief.
The surrounding guild members also exclaimed in amazement.
“This kid has something!”
Ye Yu’s mouth corners rose slightly: “Natsu, your fire magic has no effect on me.” He slowly stretched out his hand, and the black flame condensed into a ball in his palm, emitting a heart-pounding breath.
“Not bad, quite interesting.” Makarov looked at Ye Yu and said, “If you want to truly become a member of Fairy Tail, you still have a long way to go.”
Ye Yu knew clearly that this old man was obviously painting a rosy picture for himself.
However, now is not the time to turn against each other.
The old hands around him still looked at him with suspicion and scrutiny. It seemed that if he wanted to fully integrate into this guild, he would have to work harder.
Sure enough, the following “onboarding process” made Ye Yu fully understand what “PUA in the workplace” is.
He was assigned to the dirtiest and most tiring chores in the guild – cleaning and moving goods. He was literally transformed from a “high-powered boss” to a “logistics brother”.
“Tsk tsk, this kid is quite good at pretending, but it turns out he’s just good at doing odd jobs.”
“Exactly. I thought it was so impressive, but it turned out to be just an embroidered pillow.”
Those guys in the guild who were looking for trouble were snickering and pointing at him as if he were some rare animal.
Although Ye Yu had a thousand horses galloping through his heart, he still pretended to be calm on the surface.
When you live under someone’s roof, you have to bow your head!
He firmly believed that gold would always shine and dragons would always soar. All he had to do was to quietly accumulate strength in the darkness and wait for the moment to make a splash!
Just as he was sweating profusely, a message came from the guild: the selection for the D-level wizard mission is about to begin!
Ye Yu’s eyes lit up, the opportunity had come!
This is a great stage to showcase your abilities.
As long as you can pass the assessment of the D-level wizard mission, you will prove that you are not just here to make a living, and you will have a better chance of gaining recognition from the guild!
He immediately put down the broom in his hand and found the guild task release board.
However, when he saw the mission selection rules, his brows couldn’t help but frown.
Those who are prejudiced against me will definitely not let go of this opportunity easily and will definitely make trouble!
He must prepare in advance!
Ye Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.
He wants those who look down on him to open their eyes and take a good look!
He started walking towards the mission selection site, where Natsu and Gray were standing side by side with playful smiles on their faces, waiting for his arrival.

The road to selection: full of difficulties
As soon as Ye Yu stepped into the selection site, he felt a wave of heat coming towards him. It was the breath of fire emanating from Natsu.
Natsu and Gray stood side by side like two gate gods, their eyes like two cold knives, staring straight at him, with a playful smile on the corners of their mouths.
That look seemed to be saying: Boy, you’re going to have a hard time today!
“Hey, Gray, how many questions do you think this kid can answer correctly?” Natsu grinned, revealing his signature fangs. His voice was not loud, but just loud enough for Ye Yu to hear.
Gray crossed his arms and snorted, his tone filled with disdain. “I guess he can’t even understand the most basic magical fluctuations? He’s only fit to sweep the floor.”
Ye Yu sneered in his heart. These two guys really have the mentality of children. How dare they use such a small trick to embarrass themselves?
He remained calm, but became alert in his heart.
It seems that this selection is definitely not that simple.
The selection officially began. A host dressed in a gorgeous robe and a monocle stepped forward. He cleared his throat and said in a slightly sarcastic tone, “Dear new wizards, welcome to the D-rank mission selection. The first item, the magic quiz, begins now!”
As soon as the host finished speaking, he asked the first question, which sounded normal.
However, the following questions were like a flood, each one more difficult than the last.
Those questions seemed to have been dug out from some remote corner, so obscure that one would wonder if they were studying the history of ancient magic.
“The third known form of elemental magic is cloud. Could you please tell me the seventeenth application of cloud elemental magic?” The host deliberately dragged out his voice and looked at Ye Yu.
People around began to whisper, all of them with expressions of enjoying the show, and some even started to laugh in low voices.
“This kid is going to be embarrassed this time!”
“Looking at him, I guess he doesn’t even know what Lian Yun is!”
Ye Yu felt as if he was under a huge spotlight. The laughter around him was like buzzing mosquitoes, making him a little irritated.
His brows were furrowed, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
Although he has reincarnation memories, these questions are obviously designed for him, and reincarnation memories cannot cover such detailed knowledge points.
As time passed, he felt like he was being roasted on a stove, and every second was extremely painful.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. His brain was working rapidly, desperately trying to recall the fragmented knowledge in his mind…
Just when everyone thought Ye Yu was going to be unable to answer, the host spoke again: “Time…” “Time’s up!” The host was about to announce that Ye Yu had exceeded the time limit, but was interrupted by his next words.
“The seventeenth application of cloud elemental magic is to use the electrostatic ions in the clouds to create high-frequency vibrations, thereby triggering miniature thunderstorms and accurately striking targets. This is an advanced application of thunder magic, which usually only appears in the advanced assessment of S-class wizards. Isn’t it a bit too much to use it to test a newcomer like me?” Ye Yu answered slowly, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. His eyes swept across the host sharply, and finally fell on Mirajane, with a meaningful look.
The whole place was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone looked at Ye Yu in amazement as if they were under a spell.
This kid actually got the answer right!
And he even outwitted the host!
“This…how is this possible?!” The host pushed the monocle on his nose, and a trace of panic flashed across the lens.
He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be able to answer such an out-of-scope question, which made him feel that his authority was challenged.
Natsu and Gray’s expressions also became interesting. Their originally playful expressions froze in an instant, replaced by shock and disbelief.
Gray couldn’t help but touch his nose and coughed awkwardly.
Chairman Makarov, who was sitting on the high platform, stroked his long white beard.
“Ahem, it seems this newcomer has a pretty good grasp of magic knowledge.” The host, trying to hide his embarrassment, moved on to the next assessment. “Second item, a test of magical power!”
Gray walked up to Ye Yu, his hands in his pockets, with a proud look on his face, “Boy, don’t think that answering a question correctly is a big deal. A true magician relies on strength! I bet you are absolutely a weakling!”
Ye Yu ignored Gray’s provocation, but walked silently to the test magic crystal, took a deep breath, and put his hand on it.
Gray saw this and snorted coldly, then took the lead in demonstrating his ice magic.
He just waved his hands, and a powerful cold air instantly swept across the whole place. A dazzling blue light quickly rose from the test magic crystal and finally stopped at the scale of B-level wizard.
“What do you think, kid? Are you scared?” Gray challenged proudly.
Ye Yu still didn’t say anything, but just quietly injected magic power into the magic crystal.
When it was Ye Yu’s turn, he didn’t use his normal magic…
Ye Yu stood in front of the test magic crystal, took a deep breath, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
He did not perform conventional magic like the others, but quietly mobilized the Void Flame in his body. His fingertips trembled slightly, and a small cluster of faint blue flames gradually emerged, like the brightest star in the night sky.
The flame seemed to have some incredible power, and the air around it was distorted, making a slight “hissing” sound.
Gray frowned upon seeing this, and the others were stunned. The intensity and unique color of the flames were clearly far beyond any magic they had ever seen in the guild.
Natsu’s eyes widened, his mouth gaping. Even Mirajane, who was usually aloof, had a glint of disbelief in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a hint of interest.
“What kind of magic is this?” an old member asked in disbelief.
“This is the Flame of the Void!” Ye Yu responded softly, with a hint of pride in his voice.
The flames of the void spread across the magic crystal, rapidly rising until they finally stopped at the scale of a B-class wizard.
The whole place was silent, with only the light emitted by the magic crystal flickering.
Ye Yu’s performance drew everyone’s attention to him, and even the old members who had originally been dismissive seemed a little at a loss.
However, just when everyone was looking at Ye Yu with admiration, an old member suddenly said, “This kid must have used some shady means!”
Ye Yu’s face instantly darkened, and the anger in his chest almost burst out of his chest.
But he took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the impulse in his heart. He knew that he couldn’t act impulsively at this time.
Chairman Makarov stood up from the podium, stroked his white beard, and said calmly: “I will investigate this matter thoroughly. The selection results will be put on hold for now.”
Ye Yu’s heart sank, worried that he would be disqualified.
He turned to look at Natsu and Gray, and found that they were actually plotting something in a low voice, with malicious glints in their eyes.
Ye Yu’s heart tightened, he clenched his fists, and his vigilance rose again.
He knew he couldn’t let his guard down, as new challenges were coming.
“I won’t give up easily before the investigation results come out.” Ye Yu said to himself silently in his heart.
Feilu novels, Feilu will make you look good!
Chapter 3: Accepting D-level missions (old version)
Ye Yu stood at the foot of the platform. The air around him seemed to freeze, and everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
President Makarov stroked his white beard and announced in a deep voice: “The results of the investigation are out. Ye Yu did not cheat. He has the right to participate in the D-rank wizard mission.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar.
The old members who had originally looked down on Ye Yu now showed complex emotions, including shock, unwillingness, and even anger.
Chairman Makarov’s gaze swept through the crowd, finally landing on Natsu and Gray.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He nodded gratefully to President Makarov and turned to the mission board.
The mission board contains a wide variety of tasks, ranging from simple letter delivery to dangerous demon exorcism.
However, those members who excluded him had already prepared a seemingly impossible task for him.
“Ye Yu, you are a newcomer, go and complete this task.” An old member pointed to a corner of the task board with a disdainful tone.
Ye Yu looked in the direction his finger pointed. The mission name was “Monsters in the Abandoned Castle”. The mission description read: “Go to the abandoned castle and eliminate the monsters hiding in it. There are multiple traps in the castle, which can be seen at the entrance.” Reward: 10,000 gems.
Ye Yu didn’t say anything and silently took the task.
There was no emotion on his face, only a determined gaze.
He knew it was a trap, but it was also his chance to prove himself.
“Boy, your courage is commendable, but don’t forget, the abandoned castle is no joke.” Mirajane reminded gently with a hint of concern in his eyes.
Ye Yu smiled slightly and nodded: “Thank you for your reminder, I will be careful.”
He turned and walked towards the castle, each step he took seeming particularly determined.
The abandoned castle stands quietly in the depths of the dense forest, surrounded by a gloomy atmosphere.
The surrounding trees seemed to be shrouded by some dark force, and even the sound of the wind had a hint of coldness.
The moment Ye Yu stepped into the castle, a chill hit him in the face, almost making him shiver.
In the dark corridor, the floor creaked as if it would collapse at any moment.
He advanced cautiously, when suddenly one of his feet stepped on a loose floorboard and spikes shot out from all directions.
Ye Yu quickly dodged the attack of the spikes, sweat dripping down his forehead.
He clenched his fists and thought to himself, “This is just the beginning. There are more dangers waiting for me later.”
He continued to go deeper into the castle, taking every step with extreme caution.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in the darkness: “Welcome to the abandoned castle, mortal…” Inside the gloomy castle, Ye Yu was like an experienced explorer. Relying on his reincarnation memory, he easily avoided one trap after another.
A mechanism on the floor?
He had anticipated this and dodged it with a light leap.
Darts shot from the wall?
He moved his body to the side, causing it to miss.
This is not a castle full of dangers, it is simply his back garden.
However, Natsu and Gray, who were following Ye Yu secretly and wanted to see him make a fool of himself, were not so lucky.
They were like two headless flies, jumping up and down when pricked by thorns in the ground, and running away in panic when chased by darts.
Seeing their dusty and miserable appearance, Ye Yu almost laughed out loud, thinking: “That’s it? You still want to laugh at me? You two should take care of yourselves first!”
“Oh my god, is this kid cheating? How did he know where the trap is?” Natsu rubbed his butt which was hurt by the ground spikes and looked at Ye Yu who was strolling in front of him in disbelief.
Although Gray didn’t say anything, his furrowed brows and the occasional twitching of the corners of his mouth revealed his inner shock.
When they finally arrived at the central area of the castle, a huge monster appeared before their eyes.
This monster has sharp fangs and claws, and exudes a rotten smell. It looks like it is not someone to be trifled with.
Natsu and Gray immediately assumed a fighting stance, intending to fight the monster for three hundred rounds.
However, Ye Yu raised a hand to stop their actions.
He did not start fighting as usual, but narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the monster in front of him.
“Wait, there seems to be something wrong with this monster…” Ye Yu muttered to himself.
He slowly stretched out his hand and released a faint flame.
This flame is not ordinary flame magic, but a special fluctuation with a hint of void power.
A surprising scene appeared!
The monster’s originally fierce eyes suddenly became gentle. It lowered its head and gently rubbed Ye Yu’s hand, like a docile kitten.
“This…how is this possible?” Natsu’s eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Gray was also confused. He felt that his worldview had been strongly impacted, as if he had seen that “the end of science is theology.”
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile: “It seems that sometimes, playing against the rules can bring unexpected gains.”
He patted the monster’s head and said calmly, “Okay, let’s go.”
Just when Ye Yu was about to leave, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the castle.
In the darkness, a pair of blood-red eyes slowly opened…
Deep in the darkness, those blood-red eyes were like two will-o’-the-wisp lights, emitting a heart-pounding cold light.
Then, with a deafening roar, a monster with a larger body and more ferocious aura walked out from the shadows.
The monster was covered with thick scales, like a moving fortress, and every step it took made the ground tremble slightly.
“Oh my god, there’s a boss?!” Natsu’s fighting spirit was instantly ignited. He roared and rushed towards the newly appeared monster.
Gray followed closely behind, icy cold air gathering in his hands.
However, in the face of absolute power, all skills seem pale and powerless.
The monster just casually waved its claws and swatted Natsu and Gray away like flies. The two fell to the ground in a mess and couldn’t get up for a long time. There were several bloody wounds on their bodies.
“That’s it? That’s too weak!” Ye Yu secretly complained in his heart. He knew that now was his time to show his ability.
He walked forward slowly, the flames of the void igniting in his palms.
The flame was like a hungry glutton, greedily devouring the remaining fire magic energy in the castle. Ye Yu felt a powerful force surging in his body, as if it was going to burst his body.
“It’s my turn!” Ye Yu’s eyes narrowed. He did not choose to fight head-on, but attached the Void Flame to his legs, and moved around the monster like a ghost.
He seized the opportunity and struck the monster’s soft spot with a flaming punch containing the power of the void.
“Bang!” With a dull sound, the monster’s huge body shook and let out a painful roar.
Ye Yu did not stop. He crossed his hands, and the flames of the void turned into chains of fire in his hands, wrapping around the monster’s limbs. At the same time, he muttered something, combining the various fire magics he had swallowed before to form a unique magic combination. A huge fire cage appeared out of thin air and trapped the monster inside.
“Boom!” The fire cage exploded instantly, the intense flames engulfed the monster, and the violent explosion echoed in the castle.
When the flames dissipated, only a pile of charred ashes was left. The powerful monster was killed instantly by Ye Yu!
Natsu and Gray stared at everything in front of them in amazement, their hearts filled with shock. Only then did they realize that the gap between them and Ye Yu was a world of difference.
Ye Yu turned and walked out of the castle, completing the mission easily. Not only did he bring back the mission items, he also rescued a little magician trapped in the castle.
When he returned to the guild, he was no longer greeted with ridicule and questioning, but with looks of surprise and admiration.
The old members who had excluded him before now lowered their heads and did not dare to look him in the eye.
President Makarov even walked up to Ye Yu personally, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled with satisfaction: “Ye Yu, you did a great job. Your strength and courage have been recognized by everyone!”
Ye Yu knew that this was just the beginning and there would be more challenges waiting for him in the future, but he would never back down.
Just as he was thinking to himself, he noticed that Mirajane was looking at him with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. That smile seemed to contain some special meaning.
Ye Yu’s heart moved, and an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.
“Could it be that she has something to tell me?” Ye Yu muttered to himself.

Chapter 4: A New Journey (Old Version)
Mirajane’s smile was like the afternoon sun shining on the calm lake, shimmering but bottomless.
Ye Yu couldn’t understand the meaning behind this smile. Was it a new test or a hidden opportunity?
He had a vague feeling that something was about to happen.
An inexplicable feeling of anticipation and nervousness intertwined together, causing his heartbeat to speed up slightly.
In the guild hall, the original recognition of Ye Yu’s strength gradually began to change as time went by.
Some jealous and dissatisfied guys began to whisper in private again.
“Tsk, that guy must have been incredibly lucky to complete his mission!” A burly bearded man curled his lips in disdain. “What powerful monsters could there be in an abandoned castle? Maybe he just happened to get lucky.”
“That’s right, looking at his pretty face, he probably can’t even defeat a goblin!” Another skinny wizard echoed, “Maybe he used some shady means to survive.”
These rumors spread quickly throughout the guild like wildfire.
Ye Yu’s originally calm state of mind began to waver.
He clenched his fists, his knuckles crackling, and a surge of anger burned in his chest.
“You think you can deny my efforts with just rumors? How ridiculous!” He sneered to himself, “Since you want to see my strength, I’ll show you what true power is!”
He stood up suddenly and looked around, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
“Who is gossiping behind my back? If you have the guts, come out and let’s have a fair competition!” His tone was cold, with a hint of unquestionable majesty.
The guild hall fell silent in an instant, and everyone’s attention was focused on Ye Yu.
Those who spread rumors were so scared that they shrank their necks and dared not look him in the eye.
They didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so tough. They originally just wanted to use this to hit his morale, but unexpectedly they angered him instead.
Mirajane looked at Ye Yu, and the smile on her face deepened.
She walked up to Ye Yu, patted his shoulder gently, and said gently: “Young man, it’s good to be energetic, but you also have to learn to control your emotions.”
Ye Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm the anger in his heart.
He knew Mirajane was reminding him not to be affected by these boring provocations.
He nodded and said firmly, “I understand. I will prove everything with my strength.”
Mirajane smiled slightly, turned and walked towards the guild task board, tore off a task commission and handed it to Ye Yu.
“Since you are so confident, try this.”
Ye Yu took the task, took a look at the content, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
“Subjugating… the dark guild ‘Skull’?”
The task that Mirajane gave to Ye Yu was not an easy one. It was to defeat the dark guild “Skeleton”, which was no joke.
Although they were just some minions outside the “Skeleton” guild, they were enough to give the newcomers a hard time.
At the same time, a new D-rank mission was released in the guild hall: an exploration of a mysterious cave near the town of Harugeon.
It is said that there are mysterious magical items hidden inside, but also unknown dangers lurking.
This mission sounded like a “Lucky Guys dungeon” and Ye Yu naturally wouldn’t let go of this opportunity, so he decisively applied to go.
However, the guild arranged for Gray to act with him.
Gray looked reluctant, as if saying, “What? You want me to act with this pretty boy? Are you serious, President?” Along the way, Gray mocked Ye Yu, and his venomous tongue was comparable to Natsu’s destructive power.
“Hey, isn’t this our hero? Why, is it too dangerous to defeat the Dark Guild, so you changed it to exploring the cave?” Gray said sarcastically, and did not forget to roll his eyes. That expression was even sourer than eating expired yogurt.
Ye Yu’s inner monologue: “I can endure it! If it weren’t for the fact that you will take off your clothes in the future, I would have…” He took a deep breath and decided to ignore this arrogant ice-faced man.
After entering the cave, as expected, they were attacked by a group of magic puppets.
These puppets’ movements were stiff, but their attack power should not be underestimated. Gray was in a tough fight from the start, with several scratches on his body, looking very miserable.
Ye Yu used his reincarnation memory to quickly find the control center of the puppet, which was a crystal stone shining with magical light.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile, and then with lightning speed, a burst of void fire accurately hit the crystal.
With a “boom”, all the puppets stopped attacking instantly, as if time had stopped.
Gray looked at all this with a confused look on his face, his eyes almost popping out.
Ye Yu’s image in his mind instantly became taller. This operation was simply awesome!
“Ahem, I’m just lucky.” Ye Yu said modestly, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
At this moment, a strange wave came from the depths of the cave, as if something was awakening…
“Wait, what is that?” Gray pointed deep into the cave with a hint of fear in his tone.
Deep in the cave, an ancient and mysterious magic circle emits a faint blue light, and its complex patterns move around like a living thing.
Gray looked at it and scratched his head. “How…how do I do this? Should I just go up and confront it?”
Ye Yu ignored Gray’s “reckless” remarks. He carefully observed the magic circle, and the knowledge about the magic circle in his reincarnation memory came flooding in like a tide.
The energy flow of this magic circle is closely related to the distribution of elements around it. Simply put, it is like a precision instrument, and any slight change will affect its normal operation.
“I can’t force it,” Ye Yu thought to himself, “I have to find the key point.”
He closed his eyes slightly, sensing the flow of elements around him.
The earth element is a little sluggish, the wind element is too active, and the fire element has been almost absorbed by the magic circle.
“Got it!” Ye Yu’s mouth curled up slightly. He mobilized the power of the Void Flame and began to change the distribution of the surrounding elements.
He is like a sophisticated tuner, adjusting the balance of the elements around him.
Inside the cave, the elements began to become disordered. The wind element stopped being noisy, the earth element became active, and the fire element began to surge again.
Under Ye Yu’s control, the blue light of the magic circle gradually weakened, and finally with a “pop”, it completely failed, as if the power was unplugged.
Gray was stunned, his mouth opened so wide that he looked like he could swallow an egg. “Holy crap, this is even possible?!”
After the magic circle failed, a magic ball emitting soft light was suspended in the air. This should be the mysterious magic item mentioned in the mission.
At the same time, a translucent soul body slowly appeared, emitting powerful magical fluctuations all over its body, guarding the magic ball like a guard.
“Looks like it’s time for the BOSS battle!” Ye Yu rubbed his hands excitedly.
The guardian spirit let out a sharp roar and pounced towards the two of them.
Gray instantly entered combat mode and threw ice magic as if it were free. However, the guardian spirit was as slippery as a loach and could not hit the vital parts at all.
Ye Yu calmly analyzed the guardian spirit’s attack pattern and waited for an opportunity to act.
During a confrontation, Ye Yu seized the opportunity and the flames of the void instantly erupted like a fire dragon, enveloping the guardian spirit.
The magical power of the guardian spirit is constantly devoured by the flames of the void and transformed into new power.
Ye Yu felt as if his body was inflated and full of strength.
He concentrated this power into his fist and punched the guardian spirit hard.
With a loud “bang”, the guardian spirit let out a wail and turned into starlight and dissipated.
Gray looked at Ye Yu,
The two returned to the guild with the magic ball. Ye Yu handed it over and received unanimous praise from the guild members.
But he always felt something was strange, especially the way President Makarov looked at him, which contained a subtle worry.
Ye Yu’s heart sank slightly. This feeling was like the calm before the storm.
He looked at President Makarov, but the president just patted his shoulder, said nothing, and turned away.
Chapter 5: Undercurrent of Crisis (Old Version)
Ye Yu keenly caught the worry in President Makarov’s eyes, like a small stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples and rapidly expanding the sense of unease in his heart. His intuition told him that this was definitely not a good thing.
He wanted to grab the president’s shoulder and ask for clarification, but the old man just patted his shoulder earnestly and sent him away with a “good rest”.
This made him even more confused. He felt like he was kept in the dark and that there must be some big conspiracy brewing behind the scenes.
Back in the bustling guild, the atmosphere seemed a little off.
Those guys who had given him a thumbs-up before now looked at him in a strange way, as if they were looking at some rare animal.
When Ye Yu walked in the crowd, he could always feel some vague eyes staring at him, which made him feel uncomfortable and gave him goose bumps.
He listened carefully and vaguely heard some whispers.
“This guy has only been here for a few days and he’s already doing so well. It’s really annoying.”
“Does anyone know if he used any shady means? Doesn’t it seem like he’s getting along a little too smoothly?”
“Maybe he’s a spy sent by another guild, deliberately coming to sabotage our guild?”
These words were like sharp knives, piercing Ye Yu’s ears word by word, making him frown.
Only then did he realize that not everyone was cheering for him. Jealousy was like a vine, silently entwining around him and even threatening to devour him.
In particular, when he saw several “old hands” in the guild gathered together, pointing at him with malicious smiles on their faces, Ye Yu instantly became alert.
A chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He felt like he was standing on the edge of a cliff, and if he was not careful he would fall into the abyss.
Ye Yu couldn’t help but clench his fists, his nails digging deep into the flesh, but the pain made him more awake.
He knew that he had to figure out what was going on, otherwise, even bigger trouble would be waiting for him.
“Hey, what are you talking about?” Ye Yu decided to take the initiative. He walked towards those people with a half-smile on his face.
“Nothing, just chatting about the nice weather today.” The man in the lead immediately put away his smile, shifted his gaze unnaturally, and his tone became stiff.
The air seemed to freeze, with only faint whispers continuing.
Ye Yu took a deep breath. He felt that the atmosphere around him was becoming more and more weird at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He felt that the people around him looked at him with suspicion again.
“Hey, you guys, are you free? I have something to say.” Ye Yu did not back down. He walked straight up to those “old foxes” with a firm tone.
Several people exchanged glances with a half-smile on their faces.
“Go ahead, what do you want to say?” The leading man (the “/taskleader.pi????” here may be garbled content, so just keep it as it is) threw out this sentence with obvious distrust in his eyes.
“I just want to say that if you have any dissatisfaction or doubts, just say it directly, and don’t do anything behind my back.” Ye Yu spoke bluntly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
Several people looked at each other, as if they didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so direct.
The leader laughed heartily, his laughter filled with sarcasm. “Just say it? Okay, then we’ll deal with it business-like and hold a guild meeting so you can explain yourself in public.”
Ye Yu was secretly shocked, but he remained calm on the surface: “Okay, that’s exactly what I meant.”
The atmosphere in the conference room was tense.
President Makarov sat in the main seat, his eyes dark, while the other members sat in a circle, with Natsu and Gray standing off to the side, their faces showing clear disapproval.
Lucy looked at Ye Yu with a worried look on her face, as if she was worried about him.
“Ye Yu, you speak first.” Although Makarov’s tone was calm, the majesty in it was unquestionable.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and spoke slowly: “I know some people doubt me, and even suspect that I am a spy sent by other guilds. But what I want to say is that all my achievements are obtained through my own strength.”
He pulled out several mission commissions and mission completion certificates from his pocket and placed them on the table. “This is a detailed record of my first mission, including the mission location, enemies encountered, and mission results. You can send someone to verify it.”
Then, he took out several more magic items, each with proof of their origin. “These are all magic items I obtained from missions. Each one has a clear source.”
The atmosphere in the conference room gradually eased, and those who had originally questioned Ye Yu began to talk in a low voice.
Lucy’s
“Also, I can make my Void Flame public so that everyone can test it for themselves.” Ye Yu’s voice was firm and powerful.
As Ye Yu demonstrated, the flame of the void burned in the air, emitting a faint blue light.
Just when everyone thought the matter was over, a cold voice sounded behind them: “This is not enough to prove anything unless you can complete a more difficult task.” Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Natsu stood up and said that he believed Ye Yu was not a spy, but he asked Ye Yu to have another fair duel with him.
This was beyond everyone’s expectations, and there was an uproar in the conference room.
“Natsu, you actually believed him?” Gray asked in disbelief, with a teasing tone in his voice.
“I don’t trust people easily,” Natsu glared at Gray, a spark of fighting in his eyes, “but my intuition tells me that this guy is not an enemy. However, I also want to see his true strength.”
Ye Yu’s heart trembled, but he understood that this was an opportunity to prove himself and the best way to eliminate everyone’s doubts.
He stood up and said firmly, “Okay, I accept the challenge.”
Guild Master Makarov nodded, a hint of approval in his eyes. “Very good, then we will follow the guild’s rules. The duel will be held in the guild’s backyard. You will be given half an hour to prepare.”
Half an hour later, many members had gathered in the guild’s backyard, and everyone was looking forward to the duel.
Natsu and Ye Yu stood in the center of the duel arena, and the audience around them held their breath.
Natsu took the lead in launching the attack, flames burning around his fist, and punched Ye Yu fiercely.
Ye Yu quickly dodged and escaped danger.
Natsu’s attack was like a storm, with fireballs, fire tornadoes, and flame shock waves, one after another, making it difficult to cope.
Ye Yu took a defensive stance, using the characteristics of the Void Flame to absorb Natsu’s flames and transform them into his own power.
“No wonder you’re so strong,” Natsu gasped.
Ye Yu’s heart moved. He knew that although Natsu’s attacks were fierce, there was a pattern to them.
He used the fighting skills from his reincarnation memories to quickly adjust his strategy, find the gap in Natsu’s attack, and punch Natsu in the chest with his backhand.
“Bang!” Natsu’s body swayed and fell to the ground.
However, he stood up with a smile and patted the dust off his body: “As expected of you, Ye Yu. You are indeed very strong!”
The surrounding guild members burst into applause and cheers, and even the usually aloof Mirajane cast an admiring look.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the uneasiness in his heart temporarily dissipated.
However, at this moment, he received an anonymous letter.
The handwriting on the envelope was blurry, but the content of the letter made his heart sink: “Don’t be too complacent too soon, Fairy Tail is not safe for you. Leave as soon as possible, otherwise a greater disaster will befall you.”
The letter paper in Ye Yu’s hand trembled slightly. With a flash of thought, he decided to secretly investigate the source of the letter.
He raised his head and glanced at everyone with a determined look, but he couldn’t hide the doubt in his eyes.
Chapter 6: Towards a New Path (Old Version)
Ye Yu tightly grasped the anonymous letter. The rough touch of the letter paper seemed to carry a cold chill, piercing his palm.
The handwriting on the letter was as scribbled as a ghost’s scribbles, and the content was like a fog, foreshadowing unknown dangers.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were as sharp as a hawk as he scanned every face in the guild hall.
The noisy conversations and laughter, the clinking of glasses, and the occasional “Natsu, you’re tearing the table apart again!” all seemed to have become background noise, but in his ears at this moment, they were like whispers before a storm, making him nervous.
He was like a lurking hunter, observing the subtle movements of the guild members silently.
Natsu was still making a lot of noise and quarreled with Gray again. Lucy covered her forehead with her hands, obviously she was used to the daily life of these two funny guys; Mirajane was still smiling gently, as if she was chatting with a new wizard.
Everyone seems normal, but there is also a hint of suspicion in them, just like playing Werewolf, where everyone could be a wolf.
He wondered to himself, who wrote this anonymous letter?
Could it be that someone is displeased with him?
Or is there really some conspiracy?
Ye Yu did not act rashly, as he knew that alerting the enemy would be counterproductive.
He pretended to be nonchalant and joined his companions’ conversation, while observing everyone’s subtle expressions with his peripheral vision, trying to catch any trace of something unusual.
It feels like playing an escape room game. You think you’ve found the clue, but it’s actually the entrance to a new maze.
However, as the investigation deepened, Ye Yu found himself trapped in a huge whirlpool, and all the clues seemed to have been deliberately erased.
The little clues he had finally found disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, as if they had been erased with an eraser.
He began to wonder if he was really too sensitive.
However, every word in the anonymous letter was like a sharp knife, constantly reminding him that danger was approaching.
He felt a deep sense of powerlessness, as if he was being played a trick by fate. It was like when the internet connection was suddenly disconnected while he was playing a game, and he could only stare at the frozen picture on the screen, feeling anxious.
He gritted his teeth secretly, refusing to believe it!
As a reincarnation, if you can’t even overcome this little difficulty, how can you survive in this magical world?
He decided to change his strategy and no longer blindly search for clues. Instead, he took the initiative to expose the mastermind behind the scenes.
He slowly stood up, walked to the bar and ordered a glass of liquor.
He raised his glass and looked deeply into the liquid in the glass, as if he was looking through it and piercing through the thick fog. His resolute gaze was reflected in the wine.
Suddenly, he felt a chill on his back, as if someone was licking his back with an icy snake’s tongue.
He turned around suddenly, only to find that there was no one behind him except Natsu and Gray playing there.
“Hey, Ye Yu, do you want to have a man-to-man fight?” Natsu’s excited voice reached his ears, but Ye Yu’s gaze fell on a young waitress behind Natsu who was quickly clearing away wine glasses. He felt that the waitress seemed to have given him a strange smile.
Ye Yu’s eyes fixed
Ye Yu felt like he was being stared at by a group of mosquitoes, the buzzing sound was very annoying.
Wherever I go, I can feel several pairs of eyes following me closely, just like a classic scene in a horror movie.
He touched his nose and cursed in his heart: “Tracking? These guys really underestimate me!” He deliberately walked around the guild a few times, pretending to admire the task notice on the wall, but actually he was observing those sneaky guys.
Well, one hid behind the pillar, one pretended to wipe the table, and the other was even more exaggerated, he actually hid on the ceiling!
It would be a shame not to perform acrobatics with this kind of performance.
“Brothers, have you had enough of playing hide-and-seek?” Ye Yu sneered in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
He took out a gadget he brought from the world of reincarnation – a magic crystal that could distort space.
This thing looks like a glass ball at ordinary times, but it can be a life-saving artifact at critical moments!
Ye Yu calmly crushed the crystal, and a wave invisible to the naked eye spread out, and the sights of those following him disappeared instantly.
Hey, space magic, do you know something about it?
After getting rid of the annoying tail, Ye Yu came to a corner of the guild where no one usually went.
There were some miscellaneous items piled up here, and a faint musty smell filled the air, just like a scene from a horror game.
He squatted down and looked at the ground carefully.
Um?
There are some strange traces of magic here, like some kind of dark magic.
Ye Yu touched it lightly with his hand, and a cold breath instantly spread throughout his body, giving him goose bumps.
Following these traces, Ye Yu came to a big tree in the backyard of the guild.
The shade of the trees blocked the sunlight, making it look particularly gloomy.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed out from behind the tree, holding a dagger that was shining with cold light!
“You’re finally here!” The black shadow laughed coldly. This voice…
Sounds a little familiar!
Ye Yu looked closely and found that this was Jason, the wizard who was expelled from Fairy Tail before.
This guy actually dared to come back!
“So it was you who did it!” Ye Yu suddenly realized that this guy must be holding a grudge and wanted to take revenge on the guild, and he was just being used as a pawn by him.
“That’s right! I’m going to make Fairy Tail pay the price!” Jason’s face was ferocious, just like the villain in an online novel.
Ye Yu shrugged, looking calm: “Just you? You think too highly of yourself!”
Next, it s time to witness a miracle!
Ye Yu no longer hid his strength, and the flames of the void erupted instantly, surrounding Jason in raging flames.
Jason’s screams echoed throughout the entire guild, making everyone’s hair stand on end.
Ye Yu made Jason’s conspiracy public, and the guild members were immediately furious.
They didn’t expect that they would be fooled by an expelled guy.
“Ye Yu, you did a great job!” President Makarov patted Ye Yu on the shoulder.
Mirajane looked at Ye Yu with a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Natsu and Gray were shocked. They didn’t expect that this new guy was so powerful!
“Tomorrow, I will announce an important matter at the guild meeting…” President Makarov looked at Ye Yu meaningfully.
The next day, the guild hall was packed with people, even busier than a vegetable market.
Chairman Makarov stood on the podium, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: “Today, I want to announce something important! That is… Brother Ye Yu has officially become a member of our Fairy Tail!”
The audience burst into applause, whistles and cheers one after another, it was even more exciting than a concert.
Ye Yu stood in the crowd and felt like an Oscar-winning actor. It was a great feeling!
President Makarov continued, “Also, to commend Ye Yu for his heroic act, I have decided to reward him with a special opportunity to learn magic! As for what kind of magic it is… hehe, it will be kept secret for now!”
Now, the guild hall was in an uproar!
Special magic learning opportunities?
This is the reward that many wizards dream of!
Those guys who had mocked Ye Yu before now wanted to rush up and hug his thighs. The speed at which they changed their faces was comparable to the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.
“Brother Ye Yu, I was wrong before. Please be magnanimous and don’t take it to heart!”
“Brother Ye Yu, I will follow you from now on!”
“Brother Ye Yu, I was just joking with you before…”
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and calmly accepted everyone’s apologies and compliments.
Well, this is how the protagonist is treated!
Natsu, Gray, and Lucy also squeezed over. Natsu put his arm around Ye Yu’s shoulders and said, “Good boy, you are so talented! We are brothers from now on. Let’s work hard together!”
Gray rarely smiled: “Congratulations, Ye Yu.”
Lucy blinked her big eyes and asked curiously: “Ye Yu, how did you do it? Can you teach me?”
Ye Yu smiled and shook his head, pretending to be mysterious: “The secret cannot be revealed!”
The celebrations began and the guild hall turned into a sea of joy.
The air was filled with the aroma of wine and delicious food, and the wizards were singing and dancing, making the scene extremely lively.
Ye Yu and his friends raised their glasses and drank, feeling this rare warmth and happiness.
At this moment, President Makarov quietly walked to Ye Yu and whispered, “Young man, there is a higher-level mission. Are you ready?”
Ye Yu was stunned. Before he could speak, President Makarov added: “This mission… may change your destiny…”
After saying that, President Makarov patted Ye Yu on the shoulder, turned and left, leaving behind only a meaningful back.
Ye Yu looked at the president’s back, his heart filled with curiosity and anticipation…
“A mission to change destiny?”
Chapter 7: First Encounter with Magic (Old Version)
A flame called “expectation” ignited in Ye Yu’s heart, which was even hotter than his Void Flame.
The president’s words “a mission to change destiny” were like triggering a hidden plot in the game, sending his adrenaline soaring.
He knew that his goal in this world was not just to be a useless wizard who lived a life of idleness and waiting to die.
The next day, Ye Yu arrived at the guild’s magic study room early.
This place is more like a simple warehouse than a study room. The walls are covered with dust and the air is filled with a damp smell.
Warren, the legendary magic mentor who was so strict and rigid, sat upright, motionless like a statue.
His serious face seemed to say, “Boy, are you ready to receive the baptism of knowledge?”
Ye Yu felt an invisible pressure, but his inner fighting spirit became even stronger.
He took a deep breath and told himself: This is the real challenge. How can I become the strongest in this world without fighting hard?
“Ahem,” Wallian cleared his throat and began to explain the magical principles of Fairy Tail. His voice was a little hoarse like an old machine.
Ye Yu listened very carefully, not missing any details.
He tried to guide the magic power according to the method that Volian said. However, when he tried to condense the magic power into shape, he found that his magic power was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and could not be controlled at all.
He felt that the magic power in his body seemed to be rejecting this magic, just like water and fire cannot coexist, and there was even a faint burning sensation.
Ye Yu frowned and kept adjusting the way his magic power worked, trying over and over again, but the result remained unchanged.
The looks around him began to become complicated, mixed with doubt, ridicule, and even a hint of disdain.
Laxus snorted coldly, his tone full of contempt: “Tsk, I thought you were a great person, but you can’t even do the most basic magic guidance.” Cana held the bottle of wine, looking at Ye Yu with a smile, and there was a hint of amusement in her eyes.
Although Elfman didn’t say anything, the “you can’t do it” expression on his face said it all.
Only Bigusro squinted his eyes and stared at Ye Yu thoughtfully, as if he was studying some unsolved mystery.
Ye Yu felt like he was playing a difficult game, but he was stuck at the tutorial level, and the NPCs around him were still making sarcastic remarks.
The fire in his heart seemed to be extinguished by reality, and he began to feel anxious.
This is not just a matter of learning magic, it’s more like a trick of fate.
He felt like he was fighting against some mysterious force, and this feeling of powerlessness made him feel deeply frustrated.
However, just when he was about to give up, Warren’s next words made his heart tighten.
“Your magic… seems a little special…” Wallian pushed his glasses, his tone was a little doubtful, but more of it was scrutiny.
Wo Lian’s words were like a small stone, causing ripples in Ye Yu’s calm heart.
special?
What kind of special method is this?
Could it be that his Void Flame has been exposed?
Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface, trying hard to maintain a calm expression.
The following days were simply hell for Ye Yu.
Fairy Tail’s magic was like a tough bone for him to chew, and he couldn’t digest it no matter how hard he tried.
Every time he tried to cast magic, it would cause a backlash of magic power. It felt like there were thousands of ants gnawing at his meridians, so painful that it made him question his life.
“Hiss–” Ye Yu covered his chest, feeling as if his internal organs were about to be shattered.
He exhaled a breath of foul air, and his vision went dark.
Teacher Worian’s expression also became serious. This kid’s magic power was indeed very strange.
The frustration of studying and the physical pain made Ye Yu suffer a lot.
He locked himself in the guild library, running around like a headless chicken, trying to find a solution.
The library was filled with the scent of ancient books mixed with the smell of dust, which made him feel suffocated.
The whispers of people around him only made him feel more depressed.
“Is this kid a loser?” “Looking at him, he probably can’t even pass the exam to become a D-class magician.” “Haha, I thought he was a master, but it turns out he’s just a rookie.” These words pierced Ye Yu’s heart like needles, making him feel extremely irritated.
Just when Ye Yu was about to become autistic, he suddenly remembered a special magic adjustment method in his reincarnation memory.
This method is said to be the secret of an ancient magic school. It can help magicians better control magic power and even combine magic of different attributes.
Let s try our best to save the situation!
Ye Yu gritted his teeth and began to adjust his magic power according to the method he remembered.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly guided the magic power in his body to his dantian.
A miracle happened!
The originally violent magic power actually began to become docile, like a tamed beast.
The fluctuations of magic power gradually stabilized, forming a perfect cycle.
Mentor Warren’s eyes widened, as if he had seen something incredible.
Even those who originally sneered at Ye Yu couldn’t help but look at him sideways.
“This brat…” Laxus narrowed his eyes. This brat was not defeated by his “friendly” greeting just now?
This is unscientific!
He is an S-class wizard. Just by releasing some magic power, he can make a D-class wizard kneel down and call him daddy.
“Hmph, quite interesting.” Laxus sneered and decided to add some more “explosive stuff”.
He deliberately walked closer to Ye Yu and released even stronger magical fluctuations, like a super tweeter bombarding his ears, and the air began to tremble.
The surrounding wizards all dodged, fearing that they would be affected by this force.
Ye Yu felt a powerful magical power coming like a tsunami, and his internal organs were about to turn upside down.
He gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down.
This feeling is like playing extreme sports, where you can be smashed to pieces if you are not careful.
But he was not overwhelmed by the force as Laxus expected.
On the contrary, the corners of Ye Yu’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
This powerful magical fluctuation was like a whetstone, making his magic flow more smoothly.
He absorbed this chaotic magic power, studied it in reverse, and adjusted the way his magic power operated.
He felt that his magic power was like a sponge, greedily absorbing this powerful force.
Laxus originally wanted to see Ye Yu make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly he became Ye Yu’s “power bank” instead.
His face turned pale in an instant, and he felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
This kid is simply a bug!
The wizards around were also stunned. They didn’t expect that this seemingly ordinary rookie could withstand the impact of Laxus’ magic and use it to improve his strength.
This wave of operations is simply 666!
“Damn, is this guy cheating?” Elfman scratched his head, looking confused.
Kana was holding a bottle of wine. She looked at Ye Yu with interest, as if she was looking at a rare animal.
Although Ye Yu temporarily solved the problem of magic incompatibility, he knew in his heart that this was just the beginning.
In this world where the strong prey on the weak, he needs to become stronger in order to control his own destiny.
He felt the gazes around him and suddenly found that Kana was secretly observing him. Her eyes were deep and unfathomable, like a bottomless black hole.
This woman doesn’t seem as simple as she appears…
Ye Yu’s heart trembled. He slowly stood up and said softly to the air: “Interesting…”
Chapter 8: Destruction (Old Version)
Ye Yu stood up and dusted off the non-existent dust on his body. He knew very well that Kana’s look was not kind.
This woman, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, could give him a fatal blow at any time.
He needs more powerful strength to deal with this complex world.
Without further ado, he turned and walked towards the woods on the edge of the town.
There was his secret training ground.
The breeze blew gently, the leaves rustled, and the sunlight shone through the branches, casting dappled spots of light.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the fragrance of grass and soil.
He closed his eyes, feeling the magic power surging in his body, like a sleeping dragon, waiting to be awakened.
He once again took out the magic item he had modified, which was the key to his condensing the Void Flame.
In the past few days, he has gradually figured out how to use the Void Flame. He only needs an opportunity to fully master this power.
He carefully injected magic power, feeling it flowing smoothly through his body, as if hot magma was flowing in his veins, and he was getting closer and closer to successfully performing this magic.
Just as he was immersed in the joy of cultivation, a shadow quietly descended.
Kana shook the wine bottle with a sneer on her lips. While Ye Yu was not paying attention, she quietly touched the magic props he placed aside.
She moved her fingers slightly, and a barely perceptible magical power blended into them.
This is a special kind of magic that can temporarily change the trajectory of magic power and make the user lose control.
“Hmph, let you be so proud!” Kana muttered softly and quickly retreated into the darkness.
Ye Yu didn’t know that danger had quietly arrived.
He concentrated all his attention and mobilized the magic power in his body again, preparing to cast the Void Flame.
When he began to use his magic power at full strength, he felt that something was wrong.
“Fuck, what’s going on?” Ye Yu’s eyes widened instantly.
The magic power that should have flowed smoothly was now like a wild horse running wild in his body.
His body seemed to have turned into a bomb that could explode at any time. Energy continued to accumulate, but he could not find an outlet to release it.
“Bang!”
With a loud bang, Ye Yu’s body was knocked back several steps by a powerful force and hit a thick tree. He felt a sharp pain and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
The surrounding trees also suffered, being knocked down by the uncontrolled magic power, and the soil on the ground was lifted up, leaving the scene in a mess.
“Someone is messing with me!” Ye Yu reacted instantly. He was furious and his eyes were red. He quickly checked his magic props and found the trick hidden in them.
“Click”, he heard a light sound of footsteps coming from far away.
“Who is it!” he shouted harshly, his tone cold and filled with suppressed anger.
“Hey, isn’t this the rising star of our guild? Why are you in such a mess?” The person who came was Laxus. He crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Ye Yu with a playful expression, his tone full of sarcasm.
Ye Yu endured the pain in his body and looked at Laxus coldly.
“It’s none of your business!” Ye Yu replied unhappily.
“Tsk tsk tsk, you have quite a temper.” Laxus sneered, “With your limited ability, you still want to stay in Fairy Tail? I think you should get out as soon as possible.”
“You…” Ye Yu was furious and wanted to rush up and punch this guy immediately.
“Hey, Laxus, are you bullying the newbie again?” Cana staggered over with a bottle of wine in her hand, looking drunk.
“Kana, don’t say that. I’m just teaching him the rules.” Laxus shrugged with an innocent expression.
Kana walked up to Ye Yu and asked with pretended concern: “Handsome boy, are you okay? Do you want me to help you?”
Ye Yu looked at her coldly and said nothing.
He was now certain that Kana was the murderer who framed him.
“Oh, you’re quite cool.” Kana giggled.
Ye Yu ignored them and silently cleaned up the damaged magic props.
He knew very well that now was not the time to break up with them.
After returning to the guild, Ye Yu felt sore all over and his magic power was disordered.
This accident not only injured him physically, but more importantly, it disrupted his training plan.
Seeing other wizards making continuous progress, he felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
In the next few days, Ye Yu worked hard to recover his body and adjust his magic power.
He checked the tampered magic item over and over again, and finally found the traces left by Kana.
On the surface, he pretended to be still troubled by his failure in cultivation, but secretly began to plan how to fight back.
“Kana, you wait…” Ye Yu swore secretly in his heart.
That day, Ye Yu deliberately revealed his flaws in front of Kana, making her think that he was going to practice again…
“I won’t let you succeed this time…” Ye Yu sneered and turned away.
Ye Yu deliberately took the repaired magic props and went to the previous training place.
He pretended to be worried, sighing from time to time, as if he was still brooding over his last failure.
Kana really took the bait. She followed Ye Yu secretly with a smug smile on her face.
“Hmph, kid, let’s see what tricks you have this time!” Cana thought to herself and immediately notified Laxus.
Ye Yu came to the woods and began to prepare according to the previous steps. He deliberately slowed down his movements and pretended that his magic power was not flowing smoothly.
Seeing this, Cana and Laxus, who were hiding in the dark, thought that Ye Yu was going to repeat the same mistake again, and a gloating smile appeared on their faces.
“I must make him lose face this time!” Laxus clenched his fists.
However, just when they thought Ye Yu was about to fail, Ye Yu suddenly shouted: “Void Flame!”
A ball of black flame gushed out from Ye Yu’s hand, burning fiercely and emitting a terrifying pressure.
The air around seemed to be ignited, the temperature suddenly rose, and the leaves of the trees withered instantly.
Cana and Laxus were both stunned. This power far exceeded their understanding of Ye Yu.
“This…how is this possible?!” Kana widened her eyes, unable to believe what was happening before her eyes.
Ye Yu ignored their shock. He controlled the Void Flame and slowly led it towards the magic item that Kana had tampered with before.
Black flames wrapped around the tool, making a sizzling sound, and the remaining traces of Kana’s magic on it were completely burned away.
“Now, what do you have to say?” Ye Yu looked at Cana and Laxus coldly.
Warian and other wizards who rushed over after hearing the news also saw this scene. They were shocked by Ye Yu’s magical power, and at the same time they were disgusted by the despicable behavior of Cana and Laxus.
“Kana, Laxus, you actually framed your companions secretly. This is such a disgrace to our Fairy Tail!” Elfman roared angrily.
Cana and Laxus were so ashamed that they lowered their heads and dared not look at anyone.
Ye Yu ignored them and turned to walk towards Wo Lian and said, “Master Wo Lian, I think I have found a cultivation method that suits me.”
Wu Lian looked at Ye Yu, his eyes full of admiration: “Ye Yu, you did a great job! I believe you will become a powerful magician in the future!”
Ye Yu smiled slightly, but he didn’t completely relax in his heart.
He noticed that Bigusro in the crowd was looking at him with a complicated look, which seemed to contain a hint of…
“What are you thinking about?” Ye Yu thought to himself.
Chapter 9: Magic Mastery (Old Version)
A trace of…
hostility?
Ye Yu calmly remembered Bigusro’s expression in his heart, but pretended to be indifferent on the surface.
He nodded slightly to Volian, then turned and left the crowd, heading towards the Fairy Tail training ground.
Now is not the time to worry about Bigusro. The most important thing is to improve your strength.
On the training ground, Ye Yu summoned the Void Flame again. The black flame danced in his hands like a nimble poisonous snake.
After practicing for a while, he has become able to skillfully control the shape and temperature of the Void Flame.
Whether shaping it into a sharp blade or turning it into a sturdy shield, it is as natural as breathing.
“Hu ” Ye Yu took a deep breath, compressed the void flame into a small ball, and then threw it fiercely at the target in the distance.
With a loud “bang”, the target was instantly blown into pieces.
“Not bad, but it’s not enough.” Ye Yu said to himself.
He knew that although he had mastered the basic usage of the Void Flame, he still had a long way to go before he could truly “control” it.
He needed to control every bit of the flame’s energy more finely in order to unleash the true power of the Void Flame.
In the next few days, Ye Yu spent almost all his time in the training ground.
He practiced continuously, and continued to improve. Each practice gave him a deeper understanding of the Void Flame.
He even began to try to combine Void Flame with other magic to create new magical skills.
However, as time went on, Ye Yu felt that his progress was getting slower and slower.
He is like a climber scaling a mountain. The higher he goes, the steeper the path becomes and the harder it becomes to progress.
He began to wonder if he had reached a bottleneck.
“Is this my limit?” Ye Yu couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the dusty magic books in the guild library.
Perhaps he could find the answer he wanted there.
In a corner of the library, Ye Yu was flipping through ancient magic books, hoping to find a way to break through the bottleneck.
Suddenly, a page of yellowed parchment caught his attention.
It records a magic called “Flame Spirit Fusion”, which is said to be able to completely fuse flames with one’s own magic power, thereby greatly increasing the power of the flames.
“Flame Spirit Fusion…” Ye Yu muttered to himself, “Perhaps, this is the key to my breakthrough!”
He carefully put the parchment away and turned to leave the library.
At this moment, a cold voice came from behind him:
“It seems that you found something interesting…”
Time passes by relentlessly like a leaking hourglass.
Ye Yu felt like a bird trapped in a cage, unable to fly high.
He watched helplessly as the other wizards in the guild all seemed to have cheats, and their magic skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Natsu’s fire magic is becoming more and more violent, Gray’s shaping magic is also coming up with new tricks, and even Lucy, the celestial wizard, is summoning more and more powerful celestial spirits.
Looking at myself again, my progress in cultivating the Void Flame was as slow as an old ox pulling a broken cart, so slow that it was maddening.
“Damn! Am I really going to be the last one in the guild?” Ye Yu couldn’t help but swear.
No, he needs to work harder!
Ye Yu started the devilish training mode. Except for eating and sleeping, he spent the rest of his time in the training ground.
He practiced various techniques of Void Flame over and over again like a madman.
Sweat soaked his clothes and his muscles ached as if they were about to split, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.
He kept challenging his limits and even started trying some difficult magic techniques, but he failed repeatedly and even got himself into a mess.
“This is not a solution…” Ye Yu slumped on the ground, gasping for breath, feeling his body hollowed out.
He needs to find a new breakthrough, otherwise it will be a waste of time and energy.
Just when he was about to give up, a dusty memory suddenly emerged from the depths of his mind.
It was a hidden skill he accidentally discovered when he was playing an RPG game called “Void Flame” in his previous life – “Flame Spirit Blast”.
This skill requires compressing the Void Flame to the extreme, and then releasing it instantly, creating a huge explosive force.
“Wait, this skill might work…” Ye Yu immediately stood up and summoned the Void Flame again.
This time, he no longer practiced blindly like before, but focused all his attention on compressing the flame.
He carefully controlled every bit of magic power and compressed the Void Flame into a fist-sized black fireball.
“Hu ” Ye Yu took a deep breath and injected all the magic power in his body into the fireball.
The black fireball began to tremble violently, as if it would explode at any time.
“Flame Spirit Explosion!” Ye Yu suddenly threw the fireball at the huge rock in the distance.
“boom!”
With a deafening bang, the boulder was instantly blown into powder, and a powerful shock wave swept across the entire training ground.
Volian stood at the edge of the training ground, looking at the scene in front of him, “Is this… is this really the Void Flame?” he muttered to himself.
“This kid… actually did it!” Laxus, who had been paying attention to Ye Yu, had a terribly gloomy expression on his face.
“This…how is this possible…” The bottle in Kana’s hand fell to the ground and shattered.
“This kid… is quite interesting…” Elfman said.
Bigusro, who was hiding in the dark, had a strange smile on his face.
“Interesting, this is getting more and more interesting…” He muttered, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.
“Ye Yu, come here.” Wo Lian waved to Ye Yu, with a hint of excitement in his tone that was hard to conceal.
Ye Yu walked up to Wo Lian, and the old man excitedly grabbed his shoulders with such force that he almost crushed Ye Yu’s bones.
“Boy, you are such a genius! Even I can’t use this Fire Spirit Blast!” Worian was so excited that his beard stood up, like a bear that had stolen honey.
The news spread quickly throughout the Fairy Tail Guild as if it had wings.
The deafening noise on the training ground made everyone run out to watch the fun.
When they learned that Ye Yu had mastered such powerful magical skills, they were all shocked.
“Fuck! This guy is too awesome!”
“Is this really the Flame of the Void? Why does it feel even stronger than Laxus’ lightning magic?”
“This kid…will definitely become an S-class wizard in the future!”
Those who were jealous of Ye Yu and tried to trip him up before can only hide in the corner, trembling in fear, with their faces slapped.
Laxus’s face turned even darker, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh.
Kana, on the other hand, was holding a new barrel of wine, drowning her sorrows in alcohol while muttering, “Impossible… This is impossible…”
Ye Yu became the focus of the entire guild. He enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, but his heart was calm.
He knew that this was just a small success and there was still a long way to go in the future.
At this moment, Ye Yu’s eyes fell on Bigusro in the crowd.
He walked straight up to Bigusro and asked calmly, “Bigusro, do you have anything else to say?”
Bigusro was startled by Ye Yu’s sudden action. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so direct.
He originally wanted to do some tricks in secret, but now he is completely confused.
He stammered, “Nothing…nothing…”
Ye Yu smiled, turned and left.
His action once again made everyone take notice.
This kid is not only strong, but also very courageous!
Just as Ye Yu was immersed in the joy of success, a message came from the guild hall: there was a C-level mission that needed manpower.
“Ye Yu, are you willing to join this temporary team?” Mirajane said to Ye Yu while standing at the counter in the guild hall.
Ye Yu nodded and walked towards the guild hall.
He didn’t know what kind of members would be in this team, nor what difficulties he would encounter during the mission, but he knew that a new adventure was about to begin…
“Hey, newcomer, are you Ye Yu?” A rough voice sounded.
Chapter 10: Team up and set off (old version)
As soon as Ye Yu stepped into the guild hall, he felt a “lively” atmosphere coming towards him.
The so-called liveliness does not mean that everyone is enthusiastic, but rather an awkward atmosphere where everyone has their own ulterior motives.
A muscular man was shouting in his eardrum-shattering voice: “Hey, newcomer, are you Ye Yu?” He was Tomaru, a typical man with more muscles than brains.
Ye Yu took a glance and thought, with these muscles, he could be a fitness coach in real life, right?
Standing next to him was a man in fancy clothes, Jed, with the words “I’m the best” written all over his face, looking at him with squinted eyes.
Leon, on the other hand, had an arrogant look on his face, his nose turned up, as if to say, “That’s all? You’re worthy of teaming up with me?”
In the corner, the little girl Xueno was shivering like a frightened little rabbit, and Ye Yu wanted to put a coat on her.
The only one who could be considered “normal” was probably the infatuated Zhu Bian. Unfortunately, she only had eyes for Gray and didn’t even look at Ye Yu. She just said “hmm” coldly.
this
What a collection of “problem children”!
Ye Yu complained silently in his heart, this is not a team, it is clearly a “pig teammate concentration camp”.
He smiled awkwardly as a greeting, and the air was filled with an awkward atmosphere that seemed as if one could grab a handful of it.
Sure enough, conflicts arose not long after the guild was formed.
Jed cleared his throat and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: “I think I should be the captain. After all, I have the most experience.”
Leon immediately joined in, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: “Huh, a newcomer dares to be on the same level as us? Of course the captain must choose someone with strength!”
Tomaru also joined in the fun: “Yeah, yeah, yeah, pick someone awesome so we can complete the mission faster!”
Zhu Bian crossed his arms and watched coldly, as if he was watching a farce.
Yukino was so frightened that she almost buried her head in the ground.
Ye Yu instantly felt a strong sense of oppression. This was not a teammate at all, it was clearly someone setting a trap for him!
He felt like a little white rabbit being targeted by a pack of hungry wolves.
This script is wrong. Shouldn’t we overcome all obstacles and become the strongest?
Why did we encounter the crisis of team destruction at the very beginning?
Ye Yu took a deep breath, but remained calm on the surface.
He knew that if he confronted this group of people head-on, he would get nothing good, so he had to change his approach.
“Everyone is right,” Ye Yu said slowly, with a meaningful smile on his face. “Since everyone agrees so well, then…”
He suddenly paused, leaving everyone in suspense, and glanced at everyone present.
“So, who wants to be the unlucky captain?”
The desert wind was like a gritty slap in the face, slapping everyone hard.
The scorching sun baked the earth, and the air was filled with suffocating heat.
The group trudged through the sea of sand, their clothes soaked with sweat and their lips cracked.
“This damn place doesn’t even have a tree!” Tomaru complained, wiping the sweat from his face.
“If I had known it would be so hard, I would have taken a D-rank mission!” Yukino dragged her steps weakly, her voice filled with tears.
Leon turned around and glared at her impatiently: “Can you hurry up! You’re dawdling. Do you want to kill everyone?”
Yukino shuddered with fear, tears streaming down her face, and she walked even slower.
The atmosphere in the team was worse than the desert weather.
Ye Yu sighed. These stupid teammates were more difficult to lead than he had imagined!
He tried to smooth things over: “Everyone, stop arguing. Unity is strength…”
“Shut up! Newcomers have no right to speak!” Leon interrupted him rudely.
Ye Yu: Okay, as long as you are happy.
At this moment, Ye Yu had a flash of inspiration and remembered a magical story about teamwork in his reincarnation memory.
“There once was a group of powerful wizards, each of them possessing the power to destroy the world,” Ye Yu paused, observing the expressions of the crowd, “but due to internal strife, they were eventually defeated by an enemy far less powerful than them. Do you know why?”
Tomaru scratched his head. “Because they’re too weak?”
“No,” Ye Yu shook his head, “because they didn’t know how to cooperate. Later, they learned their lesson, joined forces again, and finally defeated the enemy and became legends.”
He looked at everyone and said sincerely, “This mission isn’t about us fighting over who’s the captain. It requires us to work together to accomplish it. Just like the heroes in the stories.”
Tomaru nodded, not quite understanding. “That seems to make sense…”
Ye Yu was delighted. There was hope! It seemed that this trick of being a “storyteller” was quite effective.
“I think Ye Yu is right!” Tomaru said in a deep voice, “We should unite instead of blaming each other.”
Ye Yu gave him an appreciative look, brother, that s very nice!
Jed snorted coldly and was about to speak…
Jed’s eyes rolled. This big idiot was actually fooled by Ye Yu?
No, we have to nip this in the bud immediately!
He leaned close to Tomaru’s ear and lowered his voice, “Do you really believe his lies? I think this guy wants to keep the treasure for himself! Then we will get nothing!”
Tomaru was already stunned by Ye Yu’s story, and now after being provoked by Jed, he immediately began to waver and looked at Ye Yu suspiciously.
Ye Yu seemed not to notice Jed’s little action. Instead, he took out a purse from his pocket and said, “How about this? To show my sincerity, Jed will keep the treasures we find first, and we will distribute them after the mission is completed. How about that?”
When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Even Zhu Bian, who had been watching coldly, couldn’t help but look at Ye Yu again. This kid is quite interesting.
Jed was even more stunned. This…
The script is wrong!
He originally wanted to take this opportunity to incite everyone to oppose Ye Yu, but he didn’t expect Ye Yu to use a counter-tactic and directly blocked his words.
Leon smiled contemptuously: “Pretending! Who knows what you are planning!”
Ye Yu shrugged: “Whatever you think, I’m leaving it at that.”
Tomaru looked at Ye Yu, then at Jed, and finally scratched his head: “I think… what Ye Yu said makes sense…”
Jed was so angry that his teeth itched, but he could do nothing.
The team continued to move forward. Although the atmosphere was still awkward, it was not as tense as before.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew, sand and rocks flew everywhere, covering the sky and the sun.
“Sandstorm!” Tomaru shouted.
Everyone panicked and fled in all directions.
Ye Yu remained calm in the face of danger and shouted, “Everyone, move in! I’ll clear the way!”
He put his hands together, and black flames burned in his palms, forming a huge flame shield that enveloped everyone.
Flame of the void, devour!
Ye Yu muttered in his heart, and the flame shield greedily absorbed the surrounding sand and dust, forming a relatively safe area.
Everyone hid behind the shield and watched Ye Yu control the flames.
Sandstorms come quickly and go away quickly.
When the wind and sand cleared, everyone found that they were unharmed, but Ye Yu was pale, obviously having consumed a lot of magic power.
“Ye Yu, are you okay?” Xue Nai asked with concern.
Ye Yu waved his hand: “It’s okay, just a minor injury.”
Leon couldn’t help but look at Ye Yu with admiration. This kid’s strength was much stronger than he had imagined.
Finally, they saw the destination of their trip – an ancient desert ruin, half hidden under the sand dunes, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
However, just as they were about to enter the ruins, they discovered several figures not far away, also walking towards the ruins.
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes, a sense of vigilance rising in his heart… “Who are those guys?”
Chapter 11: Exploring the Ruins (Old Version)
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at the uninvited guests, secretly alert in his heart.
Most of the people you meet in this remote place are not good people.
He signaled everyone to be careful, then took the lead and stepped into the gate of the ruins.
“Wow, so eerie!” Zhu Bian followed Ye Yu closely, muttering softly, his body almost sticking to Ye Yu’s back.
A rare hint of fear appeared in her infatuated eyes. It seemed that this relic was indeed a bit strange.
The entire ruins were extremely dark, with a damp and decaying smell blowing in the face, and an inexplicable sense of oppression hanging in the air.
Everyone couldn’t help but slow down their pace, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
“Oh my god, this place is such a hell!” Tomaru scratched his head, and a look of uneasiness appeared on his silly face.
Ye Yu ignored their discussions. He carefully observed the surrounding environment and walked forward slowly after confirming that there were no other threats.
At this time, a narrow passage appeared in front of them. Both sides of the passage were covered with dense spikes, and quicksand gushed out from the ground from time to time. It was obvious that this person was not someone to be trifled with.
Leon took a quick glance and said disdainfully, “Tsk, isn’t it just a broken mechanism? Look, I’m going to charge right through it!”
As he said this, he was about to step into the passage.
“Wait!” Ye Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and grabbed him.
“What are you doing? If you’re scared, just say it. Don’t hold us back!” Leon shook off Ye Yu’s hand, his tone full of sarcasm.
“You know nothing!” Ye Yu rolled his eyes at him unhappily. This guy must be a fool.
He carefully observed the mechanism in the passage, trying to find the pattern. If he forced his way through this kind of mechanism, he would definitely be doomed.
Seeing that Ye Yu ignored him, Leon became even more furious and cursed in his heart: What a pretense!
Ye Yu felt the double pressure from the organization and his teammates, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He really couldn’t lead this group of stupid teammates!
At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly broke the silence in the ruins “Ah!”
Yukino’s eyes widened in horror as a small depression appeared under her feet.
Yukino’s screams echoed in the empty ruins, trembling like a frightened rabbit.
A poisoned crossbow arrow shot out from the depression and headed straight for Yukino’s face.
In a flash, Ye Yu threw Xue Noi to the ground. The crossbow arrow flew past his arm and got stuck in the wall with a dull “bang” sound.
“Oh my god! What a weird place! There are traps everywhere!” Zhu Bian was so scared that his face turned pale. If Ye Yu hadn’t reacted quickly, Xue Nai would have lost her life here.
“Wow… I’m scared…” Xueno was so scared that her face was covered with tears and snot. She cried like a wronged young wife.
“What a guy who’s always causing trouble instead of helping others!” Jade glared at Yukino with disdain, “You just keep holding us back!”
Seeing that the atmosphere in the team was about to explode again, Ye Yu rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.
It’s already this time, and there’s still internal strife?
“Shut up!” He growled, and his powerful aura instantly shocked everyone.
“Now is not the time to quarrel, find a way to leave here!”
Ye Yu recalled that he had come across a similar mechanism in the reincarnation world.
This kind of mechanism usually has a core control point. As long as you find it, you can crack the entire mechanism.
He carefully observed the walls on both sides of the passage and finally found a small rune in an inconspicuous corner.
“Found it!” Ye Yu was delighted and immediately called everyone over.
“This rune is the key to the mechanism. As long as you touch it in a specific order, you can disable all the traps in the passage.”
Everyone followed Ye Yu’s instructions and touched the runes carefully.
With a series of “clicking” sounds, the spikes on both sides of the passage slowly retracted, and the quicksand on the ground stopped flowing.
“Oh my god, that’s awesome, brother!” Tomaru looked at Ye Yu with admiration, “How do you know all this?”
Even Leon, who had always been sarcastic about Ye Yu, had to admit his strength and shut up silently.
Ye Yu smiled faintly without explaining.
He looked around again, confirmed it was safe, and stepped into the passage first.
“Come on, let’s keep moving forward.”
The deep passage seems to lead to a deeper unknown…
A strange wave quietly spread in the air…
“Wait…” Ye Yu suddenly stopped and looked forward with sharp eyes…
“Oh my god, has this relic stirred up a hornet’s nest?” Tomaru just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he tensed up again.
A few uninvited guests rushed out from the corner ahead. They were wearing uniform magic robes and looked like they were not good people.
Without saying a word, they started working, and all kinds of magical lights flickered in the dim ruins.
“Fuck, they’re coming again?” Jed exclaimed, his face turning green. His first reaction was not to fight back, but to hand over the valuables on him in order to protect himself.
“How about we give them the treasure so that they don’t…”
“Shut the fuck up!” Ye Yu roared, interrupting Jed directly. He didn’t want to be killed before he could touch the treasure.
“If you want to be a wimp, get out of here!”
A raging fighting spirit burned in Ye Yu’s eyes, and the flames of the void instantly covered his entire body. The scorching flames distorted the surrounding air.
The opponent’s magic attack fell on the flames and was directly swallowed up, turning into pure power and merging into Ye Yu’s body.
“What…what the hell is this?” The magicians on the opposite side were stunned. They had never seen such strange magic.
“Brothers, grab your weapons and beat them!” Tomaru was infected by Ye Yu’s strength, and his whole body was full of strength. He swung his fists and rushed forward.
“Water magic, water dragon roar!” Zhu Bian was not to be outdone. The water flow gathered into a huge water dragon, roaring and rushing towards the enemy.
“Ice and snow magic, dancing ice blades!” Leon’s magic came like a blizzard, blocking the enemy’s retreat.
Although Yukino was still a little scared, seeing how brave her teammates were, she also started to use some auxiliary magic.
Under Ye Yu’s command, everyone cooperated well and gradually gained the upper hand.
He continued to devour the enemy’s fire magic, his body became stronger and stronger, his strength became more and more terrifying, and every punch and kick was accompanied by an explosive sound that tore through the air.
The fight ended quickly and all the opponents were knocked to the ground.
However, during the battle, Zhubian’s arm was scratched by a magic spell, and it was covered in blood, which was heartbreaking to see.
Ye Yu frowned slightly, raised his hand quickly, and a soft light surged out from his palm, wrapping Zhu Bian’s wound.
“How do you feel?” Ye Yu asked softly.
“Much better, thank you.” Zhu Bian said in a low voice with a slight blush on his cheeks, and his eyes became gentle when he looked at Ye Yu.
After dealing with this group of troublesome guys, everyone set out on the road again. Soon, they came to a huge stone door.
The stone gate is engraved with dense and bizarre runes, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Ye Yu stepped forward and carefully observed the runes, searching his mind for memories about them, hoping to find a way to crack them.
At this moment, he felt a suffocating sense of oppression slowly approaching, as if some terrifying existence was lurking in the dark, watching them…
“Something’s wrong…” Ye Yu slowly raised his head, his eyes scanning the surroundings, his expression becoming serious…
Chapter 12: Treasure Finale (Old Version)
Ye Yu looked up at the huge stone door. The runes on the stone door were densely packed, as if every stroke was filled with ancient and mysterious magic.
He took a deep breath and began to study the runes carefully, searching his mind for memories about them, hoping to find a way to crack them.
The other team members were resting on the side, and Yukino looked around nervously from time to time, obviously feeling uneasy.
Zhu Bian stood quietly beside Ye Yu, with more trust and expectation in her eyes. Looking at Ye Yu’s focused look, she couldn’t help but feel a little admiration in her heart.
“These runes…” Ye Yu whispered to himself, his fingers gently stroking those strange runes.
He felt an ancient power flowing through the runes, as if the runes were a portal to another world.
At this moment, a mysterious force suddenly surged into Ye Yu’s mind, causing his head to split with pain, almost making him kneel to the ground.
Ye Yu gritted his teeth and used all his strength to resist the invasion of this force.
The team members around them also began to feel uneasy. Zhubian’s face turned pale, and Xueno held the wand tightly in her hand, as if ready to deal with unknown dangers at any time.
“Are you giving up just like that? Trash!” Jed sneered, his eyes full of greed and disdain.
Leon was also a little shaken. He frowned and obviously doubted Ye Yu’s ability.
The team’s morale began to decline, and for a moment, the air was filled with tension and anxiety.
Ye Yu felt the double pain of body and mind, but he did not give up.
He took a deep breath, stared at the stone door again, and silently recited the meaning of the runes in his mind.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, as if he had found a solution.
He quickly told the other team members this information.
“Follow my steps, we will definitely be able to unlock this stone door!” Ye Yu said firmly.
Hearing this, Zhu Bian nodded, and Xueno also tightened the wand in her hand, ready to provide support at any time.
Although Jed and Leon still had some doubts in their hearts, they had no choice but to follow Ye Yu’s instructions.
Just as Ye Yu led everyone to implement the cracking plan, the mysterious power surged again, this time even more violently.
Ye Yu felt his consciousness being pulled and he was almost losing control.
But at this moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the runes on the stone door began to emit dazzling light, as if responding to his will.
“Hurry, concentrate!” Ye Yu roared, his voice filled with unquestionable authority.
The team members concentrated their attention and acted according to Ye Yu’s instructions.
The runes on the stone door became brighter and brighter. Finally, with a deafening roar, the stone door slowly opened, and a golden light poured out from the crack in the door, shining on everyone.
Just when everyone thought everything was going well, Ye Yu suddenly felt an even more terrifying aura coming from behind the stone gate. His heart tightened and he hurriedly shouted, “Prepare for battle! There are enemies!” Before he finished speaking, a huge shadow quickly approached from behind the stone gate, and the air was filled with a suffocating murderous aura.
The stone door burst open, and golden light burst out, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.
Wow, this light is even brighter than the light show at a concert!
The team members were like groundhogs, peeking out from between their fingers.
“Fuck! I’m rich!” Tomaru was stunned and his saliva was almost flowing.
However, before they could be happy for long, a fishy smell mixed with cold magical fluctuations surged out from the door, making them feel sick.
“What the hell is that smell? It’s even stinkier than my socks that haven’t been washed for three days!” Tomaru complained, covering his nose.
Before he could finish his words, a huge creature rushed out from behind the door.
This thing looks like an octopus, with tentacles all over its body, and each tentacle flashes with a strange purple light.
“Oh my god, what the hell is this? Cthulhu?” Jed was so scared that he sat down on the ground, his face turning green.
Before he could react, a tentacle whipped towards him, as fast as lightning.
“Ah ” With a scream, Jed was directly thrown out, and his life or death was uncertain.
“Jade!” Yukino was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hid in the corner and trembled like a frightened little rabbit.
“Don’t panic!” Ye Yu shouted, stabilizing the troops. “Tomaru, you’re tough, go and attract its attention! Leon, you’re fast, look for opportunities to attack its weaknesses! Zhubian, provide long-range support!”
“Okay!” Tomaru swung his sledgehammer and rushed forward, fighting the monster head-on. The scene was very chaotic for a while.
“Oh my god, this thing is quite powerful!”
Leon circled around the monster like a gust of wind, looking for a chance to attack.
Zhubian also began to chant the spell, and the water turned into sharp blades and shot towards the monster.
The battle was extremely fierce. Ye Yu was giving orders while observing the monsters’ every move.
Suddenly, he noticed a subtle movement of the monster, and his eyes lit up, “Wait, its weakness…”
“Its weakness is in its eyes!” Ye Yu roared, like a commander on the battlefield, instantly igniting the fighting spirit of his teammates.
His eyes were burning with flames, which was the power of the Void Flame surging.
He flashed and appeared in front of the monster like a ghost, and a ball of hot flame condensed in his hand, hitting the monster’s eyes directly.
“Ah !” The monster let out a shrill scream, and its huge body began to tremble violently.
It waved its tentacles wildly, but was unable to stop Ye Yu’s attack.
Ye Yu seized the opportunity and slashed with fire, directly cutting off one of the monster’s tentacles.
“This feels really great!” Ye Yu felt secretly happy, and his attacks became more fierce.
“Damn, this kid is so fierce?” Leon was stunned. He felt that his previous contempt for Ye Yu was simply a joke.
Zhu Bian’s water magic also became more precise, constantly interfering with the monsters’ actions and creating opportunities for Ye Yu.
Tomaru was like a chicken with its blood pumped up. He swung the sledgehammer and smashed the monster hard, making it scream.
“Bang!” With a loud bang, the monster fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
There was a burnt smell in the air, which was the trace left by the Void Flame.
There was silence all around, and everyone was stunned by the scene before them.
“Awesome, Ye Yu!” Tomaru was the first to react and jumped up excitedly like a child who got candy.
Leon also put away his previous arrogance. Xue Nai looked at Ye Yu’s back, and Zhu Bian smiled rarely. She looked at Ye Yu,
“The treasure is over there!” Ye Yu pointed to a corner behind the stone gate, where there was a treasure chest shining with light.
“Everyone be careful, there may be a trap.”
However, before they could get close to the treasure chest, a noise came from outside the stone gate.
The team of wizards that they had defeated before actually came back with more helpers.
“Damn, they really won’t give up!” Jed was so angry that he jumped up and down.
“Don’t be afraid, brothers!” Ye Yu shouted loudly, “Our journey is to the sea of stars! Today, let them see that we are the strongest!” After that, he rushed out first.
His teammates followed closely behind and joined the battle again.
This time, Ye Yu opened fire at full power, and the flame of the void transformed into various forms in his hands. Sometimes it turned into a flaming whip, whipping the enemy’s skin and flesh; sometimes it turned into a giant flaming sword, and with one sword, the enemies fell to the ground one after another.
The teammates also cooperated well. Leon moved flexibly on the battlefield, looking for the enemy’s flaws; Jubian’s water magic was like a big net, trapping the enemy; Tomaru was like a tank, rushing forward and no one could stop him.
After a fierce battle, the enemy was defeated again.
“Hmph, a bunch of clowns!” Leon spat with a look of disdain.
“Hurry up, take the treasure and go back to the guild!” Ye Yu urged. He felt a little uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.
When they returned to the guild with the treasure, they were greeted with loud cheers.
However, amid the cheers, Ye Yu felt some unusual gazes, those gazes were full of scrutiny and inquiry…
“I always feel that something is wrong.” Ye Yu said softly, frowning. He felt that a conspiracy was quietly brewing.
Chapter 13: Guild Suspicion (Old Version)
Ye Yu frowned, the feeling of being spied on lingering, as if a pair of invisible eyes were staring at him in secret.
He walked calmly around the guild hall, his eyes scanning every corner like a scanner, trying to catch any unusual sights.
The air was filled with the noise after the cheers, but Ye Yu felt an inexplicable depression, like the calm before the storm, which made people feel uneasy.
“Something’s wrong, absolutely wrong.” Ye Yu’s heart was filled with alarm. He knew very well that anything that could make him feel this way was definitely not a trivial matter.
He clenched his fists, his knuckles making crisp sounds, and swore in his heart that he must find out the dark hand behind the scenes.
Just as Ye Yu was thinking to himself, a discordant voice broke the noise of the guild.
Jed’s greasy face was covered in smiles, but his words were filled with greed. “I say, shouldn’t we divide up the treasure this time? I’ve put in a lot of effort. Without me, how could you guys be so relaxed?”
Leon immediately exploded when he heard this: “Bah! You dare to take credit for the little effort you put in? If it weren’t for us, you would have been defeated long ago!” He crossed his arms and said proudly, “Everyone contributed, why do you deserve more?”
Yukino hid in the corner like a frightened little rabbit, not daring to interrupt.
Tomaru scratched his head and smiled innocently, not knowing which side to stand on.
Zhu Bian looked at Ye Yu indifferently, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, as if he wanted to see how he would deal with this sudden conflict.
For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, the air was filled with gunpowder, and an internal conflict was about to break out.
Ye Yu felt a pressure coming towards him. He took a deep breath and knew that he had to stand up.
These guys really gave him a big trouble. Before he even figured out who was behind the scenes, they were already fighting among themselves?
“Wait a minute,” Ye Yu was about to speak, but was interrupted by a sharp voice.
“Oh, it seems that this time the harvest is not bad.”
In the guild hall, the original noise was gradually replaced by whispers, and eyes were fixed on Ye Yu and his group like spotlights.
Some people began to point and whisper words like “unequal distribution of spoils” and “cancer of the team”. The voices were not loud, but they pricked Ye Yu’s eardrums like needles, making him feel irritated.
“See, I told you this guy is unreliable. He only knows how to eat all the food by himself!” A sharp-nosed and monkey-faced wizard said sarcastically.
“That’s right, I thought he was a good guy, but I didn’t expect him to be a money-grubber.” Another strong man echoed, his tone full of disdain.
The discussions around him grew louder and louder, surging like a tide, almost drowning Ye Yu.
He felt like a monkey in a zoo, surrounded by people watching and judging him, and this feeling made him feel suffocated.
“Shut up!” Ye Yu roared like a thunder in the guild hall, making everyone’s eardrums buzz.
His sharp eyes swept across the entire audience, and those who were whispering fell silent instantly, like chickens with their necks strangled, not daring to make a sound.
“What are you making so much noise for? It’s like a vegetable market!” Guild Master Makarov appeared at the railing on the second floor at some point. His loud voice, with a hint of majesty, instantly quieted the entire guild hall.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to act on impulse.
He walked up to the group, his eyes firm as he spoke, “Everyone has a contribution to make on this mission, and I will distribute the treasures fairly based on everyone’s performance. Jade, you’ll be in charge of reconnaissance and discover the target location, earning 5 contribution points. Leon, you’ll be in charge of the main attack, earning 7 contribution points. Yukino, you’ll be in charge of support, earning 3 contribution points. Tomaru, you’ll be in charge of the rearguard, earning 4 contribution points. I’ll be in charge of planning and commanding, earning 6 contribution points. As for the treasure distribution ratio, it will be calculated based on contribution points. Does anyone have any objections?”
Ye Yu analyzed everyone’s contribution in a clear and logical manner, with solid evidence, leaving everyone speechless.
Even Jed, who originally had a greedy look on his face, could only shut his mouth in disappointment.
“I agree.” Leon was the first to speak out.
“I agree too.” Yukino and Tomaru nodded.
Seeing that all the team members agreed to this plan, Ye Yu felt relieved.
He turned around and bowed slightly to President Makarov, “President, I’ve taken care of it.”
President Makarov nodded, looked at Ye Yu with a deep gaze, and said, “Well, well done. Young man, remember that teamwork is the most important thing. Let’s end this matter here.”
Ye Yu returned to the bar, poured himself a glass of iced juice and drank it all in one gulp.
He looked up at the window. Night had fallen and the lights were on, but they could not cover up the undercurrent in the guild.
“Things don’t seem to be that simple…” He muttered to himself, his eyes falling on an inconspicuous figure in the corner of the bar, “Who are you?”
Ye Yu just picked up the juice, and before he had time to taste it, he felt a surge of anger rising up.
I originally thought that after resolving the internal conflicts, I could peacefully complete the tasks and upgrade, but this group of people started to make trouble again.
He put down the cup and moved his ears slightly, catching the subtle discussions around him. Those strange words buzzed like mosquitoes, giving him a headache.
“Tsk, a C-rank mission? Why do I feel like they got lucky and got it?”
“Exactly. Look at those guys. If they hadn’t held on tight, what could they have accomplished?”
The corners of Ye Yu’s mouth twitched slightly. Did these people eat sour juice?
So sour?
He put down the cup and sneered. These people were really not afraid of death. They were still in the guild, yet they dared to do such blatant tricks?
He decided to figure out the situation first, so he opened the guild’s task list, trying to find a few suitable C-level tasks.
The result left him dumbfounded. The C-level tasks on the task list either had ridiculously low rewards or were ridiculously difficult.
Isn’t this clearly bullying the newcomers?
“This group of people is really enough!” Ye Yu sneered in his heart. It was obvious that someone was behind the scenes and wanted to make things difficult for them.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and decided not to confront them head-on, but to cut off the source of the problem directly.
He carefully studied the task list and found some clues.
Those so-called “difficult” tasks, although they seem difficult, actually contain some loopholes that can be exploited.
He suddenly had an idea and a bold idea came to his mind.
He deliberately avoided those rigged missions and instead chose a C-rank mission that looked very difficult but actually had a hidden route.
“This is the task!” Ye Yu pointed to a C-level task on the task list, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile.
The location of this mission is a place called “Misty Oasis”, which is said to be guarded by powerful magical creatures, so it is considered an impossible mission by the guild members.
Jade, Leon, Yukino, and Tomaru were all shocked to hear the mission that Ye Yu had chosen.
“Brother Yu, are you sure you’re not mistaken? This mission is notoriously difficult!” Jed was so shocked that the melon seeds in his mouth fell out.
“What are you afraid of? It’s just a C-level mission, right? With me here, it’s safe!” Ye Yu patted his chest, looking confident. He showed a mysterious smile, which made the others stunned, and hope was rekindled in their hearts.
In the next few days, Ye Yu led his team to prepare for this mission carefully.
Relying on his reincarnation memories, he developed a detailed plan.
He borrowed a map from the guild, carefully studied the terrain around the “Misty Oasis”, and made corresponding countermeasures based on the magical knowledge he possessed.
“This time, I want to see what tricks you can play!” Ye Yu sneered. He felt like a game player who was cracking the levels, and those who were secretly making trouble were like NPCs who could only act according to a fixed pattern.
He believed that with his wisdom and strength, he could break this unfair situation.
On the eve of departure, Ye Yu looked at the bright moonlight outside the window and felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.
He knew that this mission was not just a battle, but also a resistance against unfair fate.
He wants to let those who look down on him know that he, Ye Yu, is not so easy to bully!
“Are you ready, everyone?” Ye Yu glanced at his teammates who were eager to try. He raised the torch in his hand. The orange flame swayed in the night, reflecting his determined face.
“It’s time to go…” He uttered a few words slowly, his voice firm and low.
Chapter 14: Oasis Changes (Old Version)
The light of the torches tore through the night and illuminated the road ahead.
Ye Yu and his group stepped into the misty oasis.
The misty water vapor filled the air, with a hint of sweet fragrance, making people drowsy.
The surrounding vegetation was unusually lush, and huge flowers bloomed in the night, their colors so bright that they were almost eerie.
The sound of gurgling water coming from afar is like a lullaby, making people unconsciously relax their vigilance.
“This place… is a bit weird.” Ye Yu whispered. He tightened the sword in his hand. The memory of reincarnation told him that this place was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface.
Zhu Bian crossed her arms, looking disdainful: “Tsk, coward, it’s just an oasis? Can it grow carnivorous plants?” Although she said this, she unconsciously moved closer to Gray, seeking a sense of security.
Jed looked around, his greedy eyes scanning the surrounding plants, as if looking for something valuable.
Suddenly, a buzzing sound came from far away, breaking the tranquility of the oasis.
The sound grew louder and louder, more and more frequent, like countless bees flapping their wings.
“What’s that sound?” Tomaru asked nervously, his huge body trembling slightly and his grip on the giant axe in his hand tightening.
Almost in the next moment, a large black shadow fell from the sky, covering the sky and the sun, sweeping in like a plague of locusts.
“It’s magic locusts!” Ye Yu’s face changed. Not only were these locusts numerous, but their mouthparts were also flashing with a strange green light, which obviously had a magical corrosive effect.
“Oh my god! There are too many of them!” Jed screamed and quickly released magic to defend himself.
Leon, on the other hand, looked eager to try. He raised his chin proudly and said, “Humph, just a bunch of bugs. Look at me…”
Before he could finish his words, a magic locust slammed into his shield with a dull “bang”.
Leon’s face changed. The power of this insect was much greater than he had imagined.
“Be careful! The attacks of these locusts are corrosive!” Ye Yu warned loudly, while waving his sword and cutting down the magic locusts one by one.
The battle broke out instantly, the light of magic flickered in the oasis, and various magical attacks were intertwined with the sound of locusts colliding, forming a chaotic picture.
While fighting, Ye Yu observed the situation around him. He found that the number of these locusts seemed to be increasing, and their attacks were becoming more and more fierce.
An ominous premonition came to my mind…
Suddenly, he heard a cry of surprise: “Ah!”
Ye Yu turned around suddenly and saw Xue Nai covering her arm, her face pale, with bright red blood flowing from between her fingers…
“Yukino!”
Xue No’s scream cut through the night sky, and Ye Yu’s heart tightened.
He was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He used his sword to swipe away several locusts that were flying towards him and rushed to Yukino’s side.
There was a charred wound on Yukino’s arm, with blood oozing out. The skin around the wound was a strange green color.
“Ah… my magic power… seems to be draining away…” Yukino said in pain, her face as pale as paper.
“Damn it!” Ye Yu cursed softly. The corrosive effect of these magical locusts was even more terrible than he had expected.
“Hey, what’s going on? Why are there so many bugs!” On the other side, Leon was also in trouble.
In an attempt to show off his prowess, he accidentally stepped into a magical quagmire, and his feet were stuck to the mud, making him unable to move.
“Leon!” Seeing this, Zhubian wanted to go forward to help, but was blocked by the swarm of locusts flying in the sky. The water drop magic could not penetrate the swarm at all.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jed immediately started complaining: “What kind of mission is this! I quit! This is not a treasure hunt, this is a suicide mission!”
Tomaru was also a little panicked. Although he was extremely strong, facing the overwhelming swarm of insects, he could only swing his giant axe and chop randomly without any method at all.
For a moment, the entire team was in chaos and morale fell to the bottom.
Ye Yu looked at the chaotic situation in front of him, feeling extremely anxious. “If this continues, everything will end here!”
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and the memory of reincarnation told him that there was a most effective way to deal with magical creatures living in groups – to make a feint to the east and attack in the west!
“Tomaru! Use your greatest strength to make a huge noise!” Ye Yu roared.
“Ah? Oh!” Although Tomaru was a little confused, he subconsciously raised the giant axe and smashed it hard on the ground.
With a loud bang, the ground shook and a powerful shock wave spread out instantly, shaking the surrounding plants.
Sure enough, most of the locusts were immediately attracted by the sound and flew towards Tomaru.
“Leon! Zhubian! Cooperate with me! Use your strongest defensive magic!” Ye Yu seized the opportunity and immediately gave orders.
Leon endured the discomfort under his feet, roared, and an ice-blue light shone around him.
Zhu Bian also immediately mobilized the magic power in her body, and countless water droplets condensed around her body.
“Ice wall!”
“Shuimu Tianhua!”
Ye Yu also released the Void Flame in his body without hesitation, and the black flames condensed into an indestructible barrier in his hands.
The magic of the three people intertwined to form a huge magical barrier, trapping most of the locusts inside.
Seeing that Ye Yu’s method worked, the team members’ morale was boosted and they began to cooperate with Ye Yu to clear the remaining locusts.
Yukino also quickly took the healing potion and treated the wound simply.
“Huh… finally stable…” Ye Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around. Everyone looked a little embarrassed, but at least they were safe.
However, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Zhu Bian pointing to the distance, his voice trembling: “That… what is that…”
Zhu Bian’s voice trembled slightly. Everyone looked in the direction of her finger and gasped.
Deep in the oasis, a huge ancient tree slowly stood up. Its trunk was covered with eyes, each of which flashed with a strange light.
The branches twisted into all kinds of strange shapes, as if a sleeping giant beast had awakened.
“Oh my god, what the hell is this thing?” Jed exclaimed, and the magic wand in his hand could hardly be held steadily.
Leon also put away his previous arrogance, his face solemn: “This guy’s magic fluctuations… are so strong!”
Tomaru was so frightened that his face turned pale, and his huge body trembled slightly: “No way, are we going to die here today?”
According to common sense, a fierce battle should follow.
However, Ye Yu unexpectedly raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop attacking.
“Don’t move! This guy is not an enemy!”
Everyone looked at Ye Yu in confusion, not understanding what he was up to.
“Are you going to reason with this thing?” Jed looked incredulous, as if he had heard some huge joke.
Ye Yu ignored Jade’s complaints. He slowly walked to the front of the team, bowed slightly to the tree man, and said in a calm tone, “We didn’t mean to offend you. We were just passing by. We’re very sorry if we disturbed you.”
As he spoke, Ye Yu took out some magical herbs he had collected on the road from his backpack and placed them carefully on the ground.
“These are just a small token of our appreciation, and serve as an apology.”
The tree man stared at Ye Yu, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
After a moment, it slowly bent its branches and rolled up the herbs on the ground.
What happened next surprised everyone.
The tree man actually released a green light, shining on Yukino’s injured arm.
“Hiss…” Yukino gasped, but soon revealed a surprised expression, “My wound… is healing!”
The tree man’s healing magic was so miraculous that the wound on Yukino’s arm began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the magic power that had been lost before was slowly recovering.
“Oh my god, this is too amazing!” Jed was shocked. He felt like his worldview was about to collapse.
“Could this tree man be… the guardian of the oasis?” Zhu Bian couldn’t believe his eyes.
The tree man seemed to understand what everyone said. It shook its head slowly, then stretched out a branch and pointed to the depths of the oasis.
Everyone immediately understood that the tree man was showing them the way.
“It seems that there are secrets in this oasis!” Ye Yu’s eyes lit up and an excited smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Under the guidance of the tree man, everyone soon arrived at a hidden cave.
The entrance to the cave was blocked by dense vines. If it weren’t for the tree man’s reminder, they would never have found this place.
“Is the treasure in here?” Tomaru asked curiously, rubbing his hands excitedly.
Ye Yu nodded and led everyone into the cave.
The cave is not deep. At the end is an empty underground space. In the center of the space, a huge magic crystal emits dazzling light.
“Oh my god, such a big magic crystal! I’m going to be rich!” Jed screamed excitedly and wanted to rush over.
“Don’t move!” Ye Yu quickly stopped him, a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.
Sure enough, just as they approached the magic crystal, a powerful magical wave came from the darkness.
A terrifying magical creature slowly walked out of the darkness.
This creature’s body was covered with spikes, and it exuded an evil aura. Its blood-red eyes stared at everyone.
Ye Yu looked at the terrifying magical creature in front of him, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down.
Chapter 15 Defeat the Porcupine Monster (Old Version)
“Oh my, what is this?!” Jed screamed and almost jumped up.
This magical creature is covered with sharp spikes, like an enlarged porcupine that has become a spirit. It also comes with dark background music, and it seems that it is not easy to deal with.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He quickly glanced at his teammates. Everyone’s face was full of tension. Even Zhu Bian, who was usually a crazy fan, now had a serious look on his face.
“Everyone be careful, this thing is not easy to deal with!” Ye Yu reminded in a low voice.
Before he could finish his words, the magical creatures attacked.
A black magic flame spewed out of its mouth and rushed towards Ye Yu with a hot breath.
“I’ll hide!” Ye Yu nimbly dodged the attack and shouted, “Disperse the formation, don’t engage in a head-on confrontation!”
Leon snorted, and quickly condensed an ice sword in his hand, slashing at the magical creature.
“Is that all you can do? Look at my Ice Shaping Magic!”
However, the moment the ice sword touched the black flame, it melted quickly like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun, and could not cause any harm to the magical creature at all.
“What?!” Leon’s face changed. He obviously didn’t expect that his attack would be resolved so easily.
Zhubian and Yukino also cast water magic together to try to suppress the black flames, but the effect was very small.
The black flames seemed to have the power to devour everything, and water magic could not get close at all.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jed suddenly had evil thoughts. While no one was paying attention, he secretly moved towards the magic crystal.
“Jed, what are you doing?!” Ye Yu saw Jed’s little movement out of the corner of his eye and scolded him sternly.
Jed was startled and froze in his tracks, and the magical creature took this opportunity to launch a second attack.
This time, the black flames it spewed out were even more violent, and the entire space was shrouded in darkness.
Ye Yu felt tremendous pressure. The strength of this magical creature was much stronger than they had imagined.
He dodged the attacks and directed his teammates to defend, but the team still fell into a passive position.
“This won’t work. I have to think of a way…” Ye Yu thought to himself.
At this moment, he felt a strong murderous aura locking onto him.
“Ye Yu, be careful!” A voice suddenly rang out…
“Ye Yu, be careful!” Liu Xue’s voice was like a flash of lightning that pierced the darkness. Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light came from the side, dispersing the black flames of the magical creature.
Liu Xue arrived in time!
In order to protect Yukino, Tomaru took a blow from the magical creature. His burly body flew out like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground. His life or death was unknown.
“Tomaru!” Yukino screamed in horror, threw herself on Tomaru’s side crying, and covered the blood that kept flowing from his chest with her trembling hands.
The team’s morale plummeted in an instant.
“Damn, who is this monster?!” Leon’s ice magic has been exhausted, beads of sweat the size of beans are oozing out of his forehead, and his breathing has become rapid.
Even Zhu Bian, who was always calm, was a little panicked at this moment, and the offensive power of the water magic was obviously weakened.
Ye Yu clenched his teeth and struggled internally.
This can’t go on any longer, we must find a way to break the deadlock!
Suddenly, a dusty fragment of memory flashed through Ye Yu’s mind.
Memories before reincarnation!
He remembered that the weakness of this magical creature was a special magical pattern located on its abdomen!
“Let’s fight!” Ye Yu
The magical creature obviously didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so bold, and was unable to react for a moment.
“Now!” Ye Yu roared, and the flames of the void slammed fiercely into the magic pattern.
“Ah ” The magical creature let out a shrill roar, and its huge body began to tremble violently.
Seeing this scene, the fire of hope was rekindled in the team members’ eyes.
“Good job, Ye Yu!” Leon shouted excitedly.
“Let’s go too!” Zhu Bian also cheered up and the water magic surged out again.
Ye Yu landed slowly, looking at the magical creature struggling in pain, with a hint of a sneer on his face: “This has just begun…”
“Ah ” The howling of the magical creature became even more shrill, as if it was the wail from hell.
The spikes all over its body stood up, the black magic flames became more intense, and a disgusting burnt smell filled the air.
It suddenly opened its huge mouth, and a black energy vortex formed deep in its throat, as if it wanted to swallow everything.
“Oh shit, they’re going to use their ultimate move!” Jed shouted in horror, his calves starting to tremble.
“We can’t let it succeed!” Ye Yu roared, and all the magic power in his body surged out like a flood.
Instead of retreating, he rushed towards the terrifying black vortex.
“Everyone, focus all your magic power on me!” Ye Yu shouted to his teammates, “Trust me!”
Although everyone still had some doubts in their hearts, when they saw Ye Yu’s determined eyes, they chose to believe it.
Leon was the first to inject the remaining ice magic in his hand into Ye Yu’s body, followed by Zhubian’s water magic. Xue No hesitated for a moment and also contributed her meager strength. Even Jade, who had just wanted to escape secretly, chose to believe Ye Yu at the critical moment of life and death.
With the infusion of everyone’s magic power, Ye Yu felt the void flame in his body boiling like a volcanic eruption.
A powerful force filled his limbs and bones.
He raised his hands above his head, and the flames of the void condensed into a huge black fireball in his palms, emitting a destructive aura.
“Break it for me!” Ye Yu roared and threw the black fireball fiercely into the dark vortex of the magical creature.
The two powerful forces collided in the air, causing a deafening roar that shook the earth.
The entire space seemed to be distorted, and the powerful energy fluctuations blew away everything around it.
The air waves came one after another like a tsunami, making people’s eardrums hurt.
Ye Yu gritted his teeth, struggling to control the void flame in his body, and fought fiercely against the dark vortex of magical creatures.
The flames of the void were like hungry beasts, constantly devouring the magic power in the dark vortex.
Crack!
A crisp cracking sound was heard, and the dark vortex of the magical creature was torn apart by the flames of the void.
Then, the crack expanded rapidly and eventually collapsed completely.
“Ah–” The magical creature let out a desperate wail, and its huge body quickly dissipated in the dazzling light and turned into nothing.
“We won!” Leon jumped up excitedly, waving his fists.
“That’s great! Ye Yu, you are so awesome!” Zhu Bian also excitedly hugged Xue No beside him and cried with joy.
Everyone cheered, their voices echoing throughout the room. They looked at Ye Yu who was standing not far away.
The battle was over, everyone got the magic crystal, and after returning to the guild, they were treated like heroes.
Those who once mocked them now dare not even breathe.
Ye Yu’s status in the Fairy Tail Guild reached an unprecedented height, and his teammates also received generous rewards and became famous because of this victory.
The entire guild was immersed in the joy of victory, and the noise and cheers were deafening.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the crowd, feeling everyone’s admiring gazes, his heart filled with pride.
At this moment, President Makarov slowly walked up to Ye Yu with a serious look on his face.
“Ye Yu, come with me, I have something to tell you.” Makarov’s voice was low and serious, with a hint of unusual meaning in his tone, which made Ye Yu’s heart tighten.
Chapter 16: Mission Starts (Old Version)
President Makarov’s words were like a huge rock, pressing on Ye Yu’s heart.
He followed the president to a secluded room and frowned after listening to the brief description of the new mission.
This isn’t a mission, it’s like opening a blind box. It’s exciting, but if you’re not careful, you could die on the spot.
“President, I accept.” Ye Yu’s eyes were firm and his tone was unquestionable.
Back at the guild, Ye Yu gathered his team members.
Zhu Bian still looked like a cold beauty, with her arms crossed, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Yukino was like a frightened little rabbit, rubbing the corners of her clothes constantly.
Tomaru scratched his head, confusion written all over his honest face.
Leon was still as arrogant as ever, with his nose almost turned up in the air, while Jed’s eyes were rolling around, and it was obvious that he had something bad to say.
“Ahem,” Ye Yu cleared his throat and briefly stated the content of the new task.
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the crowd’s reactions became exciting.
Yukino’s face turned pale instantly, as if she had seen something terrifying.
Tomaru’s eyes were as big as copper bells and his mouth was open so wide that it seemed as if he could swallow an egg.
Although Zhu Bian appeared calm on the surface, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
“What? Are you going to die again? No, no, I have half of the reward for this mission, no, 70%!” Jed jumped out immediately, his greedy nature exposed.
“Why?! You’re not the main force!” Leon instantly exploded, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and loudly retorted, “If there’s going to be a share, I’ll get the lion’s share!”
“That’s enough, you two!” Ye Yu rubbed his temples and looked at the farce in front of him with a headache. As expected, a mob is a mob.
“Hey, stop arguing. If you keep arguing, we’ll have an internal conflict before the mission even starts!” Tomaru was so anxious that he kept jumping up and down, but it was obviously no use. Jed and Leon’s quarrel became even louder.
Yukino hid in the corner in fear, covering her ears with her hands, tears almost coming out.
Zhu Bian watched coldly with a sarcastic smile on his face.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart. He felt like a kindergarten teacher, taking a group of naughty kids on a hike, and these naughty kids were always thinking about destroying the house.
“That’s enough!” Ye Yu growled. His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty.
He knew that if this continued, the team would break up sooner or later.
He had to calm these guys down as quickly as possible and unite them into a team in order to complete this mission.
He looked at the sky and thought to himself that he must set off as soon as possible.
“Let’s go!” Ye Yu didn’t wait for their reply and walked out of the guild.
Everyone looked at each other, and could only put away their thoughts and hurriedly follow.
After leaving the city gate, the atmosphere in the team was still weird.
Jed and Leon were still bickering quietly over the division of the spoils, like two fighting cocks.
Xue Noi shrank her neck and followed Zhu Bian closely, like a bullied young wife.
Tomaru scratched his head from time to time, looking confused.
Ye Yu sighed. He couldn t lead this team!
Just as we reached a dense forest, something strange happened!
“I planted this tree and built this road. If you want to pass by here, you have to leave some money for passage!” With a rough voice, a group of ferocious bandit magicians rushed out of the woods and surrounded them.
“Damn it! I didn’t check the almanac before going out!” Ye Yu cursed in his heart. What he feared would come true.
There were many robbers in this group, and each of them had a weapon in his hand. It was obvious that they were not good people.
“Ah!” Yukino was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hid behind Tomaru and trembled.
Leon’s expression also changed. This situation was a bit tricky!
The battle is about to begin.
The robbers pounced on them like hungry wolves, all kinds of magic flew everywhere, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
Although Leon was quite strong, he was no match for four people with two fists. He was soon injured and gasped for breath while holding his arm.
“Yukino, assist! Tomaru, go!” Ye Yu shouted commands while resisting the attacks.
Tomaru is indeed a power player, he can kill one kid with one punch, but he can’t handle the large crowd, and soon he feels overwhelmed.
Although Yukino was scared, she was still very capable at the critical moment. She used the auxiliary magic skillfully and finally stabilized the situation.
No, this is not a solution!
Ye Yu’s mind raced, and a tactic from his reincarnation memory flashed through his mind.
“Tomaru, you fight head-on and attract fire! Leon, you are fast, flank from the left! Zhubian, you cover Leon! Yukino, control the situation!” Ye Yu quickly gave orders.
Everyone quickly adjusted their formation and the robbers were caught off guard.
Tomaru rushed forward like a tank, Leon turned into an assassin, appearing and disappearing at will, and Jubian’s water magic also worked wonders, controlling many bandits.
The bandits were thrown into chaos, Ye Yu seized the opportunity, and the Void Flame erupted instantly!
The black flames swept out like a fire dragon, defeating all the remaining bandits!
“Awesome! Brother Yu!” Tomaru shouted excitedly.
Even Zhu Bian, who had always been cold, gave him an approving look.
Leon covered his wound and walked in front of Ye Yu, “You commanded properly this time.”
Ye Yu smiled and was about to speak when suddenly his expression changed and he looked towards the depths of the forest…
“Wait, something seems to be coming…”
“Fuck, what’s that smell?” Tomaru covered his nose with a look of disgust.
The sight before them made them gasp a fetid swamp, green and lush, like a pot of thick poison.
“Ugh…” Yukino almost vomited, her face greener than the swamp.
“Be careful, there may be danger in this swamp.” Ye Yu reminded. In his reincarnation memory, this swamp was a dangerous place, with all kinds of strange magical creatures appearing one after another.
“I know, I know. You’re so nagging.” Leon waved his hands impatiently, looking like he was the best in the world.
After just a few steps, an accident happened!
“Ah!” Zhu Bian screamed and sank into the swamp, with only his upper body exposed.
“Zhu Bian!” Ye Yu rushed over to pull her without thinking.
“Awooo!” A huge magical crocodile suddenly jumped out of the swamp, opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Ye Yu.
“Oh my god! What the hell is this thing!” Ye Yu quickly dodged. If he was bitten by it, he would be crippled if not dead.
“Ice shaping magic!” Seeing this, Leon immediately cast ice magic, trying to freeze the swamp.
However, a strange thing happened. The ice magic was ineffective against the swamp!
The swamp is like a huge magic absorber, swallowing up all the magic.
“What’s going on?!” Leon was dumbfounded. This swamp was too weird!
“This is trouble…” Ye Yu felt under great pressure. This swamp not only has magical creatures, but can also absorb magic. It is simply hell mode!
Suddenly, Ye Yu had an idea. Since the swamp can absorb magic, can it also absorb other things?
“Tomaru, use your great strength to stir up the swamp!” Ye Yu immediately ordered.
“Ah? Will this work?” Tomaru was confused, but still did it.
As Tomaru stirred the swamp, the magical creatures in the swamp were attracted one after another.
Ye Yu took the opportunity to grab Zhu Bian’s hand and pulled her out of the swamp with force.
“Hurry up!” Ye Yu shouted and led everyone across the swamp quickly.
The magical creatures behind were trapped by the suction of the swamp and could not catch up with them at all.
“Huh, I finally escaped.” Leon breathed a sigh of relief. It was really thrilling just now.
“Brother Yu, you are so awesome! You actually thought of this idea!” Tomaru looked at Ye Yu with admiration.
Ye Yu smiled and said nothing, but he thought in his heart that this was all thanks to the memory of reincarnation.
After crossing the swamp, they finally arrived at the mission location – an ancient magic castle.
There is a mysterious atmosphere surrounding the castle, which makes people shudder.
“Wait…” Ye Yu suddenly stopped and stared at the castle gate with a serious look, “I feel… something is not right…”
Chapter 17: Castle Exploration (Old Version)
Inside the dark and damp castle, the air was filled with a stale smell, as if time had stopped here.
The stone walls of the castle were covered with moss, emitting a faint musty smell. The stone slabs underfoot were uneven, and every step made a dull echo.
Ye Yu walked at the front of the team. He keenly felt the danger lurking around him, like the magic particles in the air, invisible but real.
Zhu Bian, who was following Ye Yu closely, unconsciously grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Although she usually behaves indifferently towards Ye Yu, she still subconsciously seeks a sense of security in this environment.
Jade and Leon were observing their surroundings vigilantly, while Yukino and Tomaru were huddled in the middle of the team, looking pale and trembling.
“Everyone, be careful. There are traps everywhere here.” Ye Yu reminded in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in the center of the hall suddenly cracked, and countless sharp blades spun out from the cracks, making a “whooshing” sound.
“What the hell! What the hell!” Leon screamed and quickly dodged to the side.
These blades are extremely fast and seem to have tracking capabilities. No matter how the team members try to dodge, they will keep chasing them.
Leon tried to freeze the blade with ice magic, but found that the blade could not be destroyed at all. Instead, it rotated faster due to the stimulation of magic.
“These blades are made of special materials, and magic has no effect on them!” Ye Yu dodged the blades while observing the operating rules of the mechanism.
He noticed that the blade’s attack range was limited, and as long as he found the pattern, he could find a safe area.
“Everyone, try to get as close to the wall as possible!” Ye Yu shouted and moved towards the wall first.
The team members followed suit, and sure enough, after getting closer to the wall, the frequency of the blade’s attacks decreased significantly.
However, the danger was not over. Ye Yu felt a huge pressure, as if something was approaching…
“Ah!” A scream broke the tense atmosphere.
Yukino’s scream cut through the air, breaking the suffocatingly tense atmosphere.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xueno stumble and fall to the ground, about to be devoured by the dense blades.
“Damn, this woman is holding us back again!” Leon couldn’t help but complain, his tone full of impatience.
Jed rolled his eyes and took the opportunity to slip to the back of the team. He had no intention of stepping forward to help, and acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
“Yukino!” Tomaru roared and rushed over like a bull, trying to pull Yukino up.
His huge body seemed extremely clumsy in the narrow space. He was not careful and his arm was almost cut by the blade. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly retracted his arm.
“What a bunch of pig teammates, they are really hard to lead!” Ye Yu cursed in his heart. The scene in front of him made him furious. These guys really have ulterior motives!
But he knew that now was not the time to get angry, saving people was the most important thing!
He quickly activated the Void Flame, and a faint layer of flame appeared on the surface of his body. He rushed to Yukino despite the attack of the blades, pulled her up, and at the same time dodged several oncoming blades by turning sideways.
“Thank you, Brother Ye Yu…” Xue No’s voice was filled with tears and her face was as pale as a piece of paper.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Ye Yu comforted her, but his tone carried a hint of unquestionable majesty, which warmed Xue Noi’s heart, as if she had found her backbone.
He held Yukino’s hand with one hand, while observing the pattern of the blade mechanism, leading the team to dodge continuously, and at the same time, he was also quickly thinking of a way to crack it.
After this experience, everyone’s morale was low. Zhu Bian also grabbed Ye Yu’s clothes tightly, his face full of fear.
“No, this is not a solution!” Ye Yu’s eyes narrowed. He remembered the description of this ancient castle in his reincarnation memory, and his heart moved.
He carefully observed the trajectory of the blades and found that they seemed to be orbiting a hidden control hub in the center of the hall.
“Damn it, wealth and honor can only be achieved through risk!” Ye Yu muttered to himself, and he decided to take the risk!
“You guys hide here!” Ye Yu reminded, and without giving anyone a chance to object, he rushed straight to the control hub.
“Is he crazy?!” Jed exclaimed when he saw Ye Yu’s actions.
Ye Yu ignored the exclamations of the people behind him. He moved extremely fast, like a red lightning, weaving through the death net formed by blades.
The flames of the void danced on his body, pushing back the surrounding blades slightly and giving him a chance to breathe.
Finally, Ye Yu arrived in front of the control hub, which was a stone slab inlaid with magic gems and engraved with complex magic patterns around it.
He quickly scanned the patterns on the stone slab, found the weakness of the mechanism, and injected the Void Flame into it without hesitation.
“Click!” With a crisp sound, the blade mechanism suddenly stopped working and the entire hall returned to calm.
Everyone was stunned as they watched this scene. They couldn’t believe their eyes. The mechanism that seemed so dangerous just now was actually solved so easily by Ye Yu!
Yukino’s eyes were filled with tears and she was so excited that she couldn’t speak.
“Thank…thank you.” Yukino said softly, with a hint of trembling in her voice.
“No need to thank me, just be careful next time.” Ye Yu said lightly, but it made Xue Noi feel even more grateful.
Jed’s face turned pale and blue. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so powerful. He couldn’t help but regret his selfish behavior just now. However, he still said stubbornly: “Humph, it’s just good luck!”
“Hmph, is that so?” Leon sneered, with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Ye Yu ignored the discussions behind him, walked to the other side of the hall, and suddenly pressed on a protruding stone on the wall.
With a “click”, the wall slowly opened, revealing a deep passage. Without any hesitation, he walked in first.
“Follow me!” Ye Yu’s voice came from the depths of the passage, carrying an unquestionable command. It also filled everyone’s hearts with curiosity. How many secrets does this castle hold?
In the dark passage, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they were troubled again by a new fork in the road.
The passage on the left was pitch black, like a monster with a bloody mouth, while a faint hint of damp air came from the passage on the right, making it look particularly weird.
“Left, we have to go left!” Jed’s eyes lit up, and like a gambler, he pointed to the road on the left and shouted, “I have a feeling there must be treasure over there!”
When Leon heard this, he immediately got furious. He snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain: “Tsk, what kind of crappy feeling are you having? I think the right side looks like there’s a treasure. Don’t forget, I’m from a noble family!”
The two began to quarrel like two fighting cocks again, with saliva flying everywhere. Yukino shrank back in fear. Tomaru scratched his head and looked at Ye Yu in confusion, as if waiting for him to give orders. Zhu Bian crossed his arms, looking like he was watching a show, completely ignoring these noisy guys.
Ye Yu felt a terrible headache when he looked at his teammates.
What kind of pig teammates are these!
Internal strife broke out faster than anyone else. It seems that verbal attacks alone cannot solve the problem.
“Shut up, everyone!” Ye Yu roared impatiently, and his powerful aura instantly shocked everyone.
He walked to the fork in the road and carefully observed the entrances to the two passages.
At the entrance of the passage on the left, some tiny magic runes were faintly visible, emitting faint magical fluctuations. At the entrance of the passage on the right, there were some messy footprints on the ground, as if someone had just walked through.
“There are traces of people walking on the right passage. It should be the correct road.” Ye Yu analyzed in his mind, but in order to prevent them from starting to quarrel again, he decided to go to the left passage to explore the way first.
“I’ll go to the left to check out the situation first. You guys wait here.” Ye Yu said this and walked into the passage on the left without hesitation.
“What?” Everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect Ye Yu to make such a decision, but they also stopped arguing. After all, the strength shown by Ye Yu made them dare not have any doubts.
Ye Yu walked alone in the passage, the flame of the void pulsating around him, illuminating the surrounding environment.
This passage is even more eerie than the previous one. Various strange patterns are carved on the stone walls, which makes people feel a little creepy.
He walked carefully, and from time to time he could see some hidden magic traps, but these were a piece of cake for him. After all, he was an old driver who had experienced countless reincarnations.
Suddenly, a huge roar came from the front, and the entire passage began to shake, as if some huge monster was approaching.
Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat. Is there any danger ahead?
This doesn’t sound good!
He did not retreat at all, but instead quickened his pace and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
A loud “bang” echoed in the deep passage, making the surroundings even more unusually quiet.
Ye Yu approached cautiously, the Void Flame in his hand flickering with a dim light…
Chapter 18: The Treasure Finally Appears (Old Version)
Beads of sweat oozed from Ye Yu’s palms, and the light of the Void Flame illuminated the scene in front of him – a huge magic puppet, as tall as three stories, made of hard rock, with strange magic runes flashing on its joints.
This guy is definitely a BOSS-level existence!
In front of the puppet, an ancient treasure chest lay there quietly, emitting a faint magical glow. Needless to say, this must be the treasure they were looking for.
“Tsk, it seems that if I want to open the box, I have to fight monsters first!” Ye Yu’s mouth curled up slightly. He couldn’t wait to try the power of this body.
The magic puppet took the lead in attacking, and the huge stone fist smashed down towards Ye Yu with terrifying power.
The compressed air made a sharp explosion sound, as if it was going to crush everything into powder.
Ye Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He rolled sideways and narrowly avoided the attack. The stone wall behind him shattered instantly, and stone chips flew everywhere.
“Oh my god, this power is definitely cheating!” Ye Yu exclaimed, and quickly mobilized the magic power in his body. A ray of void flame instantly shot out from his palm and hit the puppet fiercely.
The flame of the void hit the puppet, but only left a shallow black mark and caused no substantial damage.
“Fuck, this defense is a bit outrageous!” Ye Yu frowned, secretly surprised.
This puppet is as hard as an iron turtle.
The puppet swung its huge fist again and launched a fierce attack on Ye Yu.
Ye Yu could only dodge left and right, as agile as a loach, while thinking of countermeasures quickly in his mind.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the passage, “Ye Yu, we are here to help you!” Leon’s arrogant voice came.
They finally arrived.
“Don’t just stand there now that you’re here, come on!” Ye Yu roared and rushed forward first.
Seeing this, everyone used their best skills to attack the puppet.
Jubian’s water magic, Jade’s earth magic, Yukino’s auxiliary magic, Leon’s ice magic, and Tomaru even swung his fists and tried to fight hard.
However, the puppet’s defense was so amazing that their attacks were like tickling and posed almost no threat to the puppet.
On the contrary, the puppets’ attacks became more and more fierce. Every time they swung their punches, they brought with them a strong airflow that forced everyone to retreat again and again. The stone wall also began to shake as the puppets fought. The whole space was filled with a tense atmosphere that was suffocating.
“I can’t go on like this!” Ye Yu was anxious. Just as he was thinking of a way to break the impasse, suddenly, a muffled sound was heard, and then Tomaru’s burly body fell heavily to the ground…
Tomaru fell heavily to the ground like a kite with a broken string, stirring up a cloud of dust.
His honest face was filled with pain, and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth.
“Tomaru!” Yukino exclaimed, tears instantly welling up in her eyes. She wanted to rush forward desperately, but the strong wind caused by the puppet’s fist shook her back like a rag doll. She fell to the ground and cried inconsolably.
Leon was also a little out of breath, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He held on to his body and released ice magic, but it had little effect.
“Damn it, this guy’s defense is too abnormal! My magic power is almost exhausted!”
Zhu Bian bit his lips anxiously, and the water magic attacked the puppet non-stop, but with little effect.
She secretly glanced at Gray’s back, then looked at the people who were passively being beaten, and a feeling of powerlessness rose in her heart.
Jed smiled sinisterly. While releasing earth magic to interfere with the puppet, he secretly moved towards the treasure chest, ready to wait for an opportunity to take the treasure for himself.
“This group of teammates is so unreliable!” Ye Yu frowned, and the pressure instantly exploded.
He looked at the seriously injured Tomaru and the nearly collapsed Yukino, and knew that this could not go on.
We must find the weakness of this iron lump as soon as possible!
In a flash, some fragments of his reincarnation memories flashed through his mind, including information about the magic puppet!
Eye!
Yes, it s the eyes!
The core energy of these puppets is usually hidden in their eyes.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He began to mobilize the magic power in his body and prepared to launch the final attack!
He connected his magic power with the magic power of the surrounding team members like a silk thread, and instantly, a powerful force surged into his body.
“Lend me all your magic power! Give it a big one!” Ye Yu roared, and the void flame in his body suddenly surged, like a huge vortex of fire, madly absorbing the magic power connecting everyone!
“Void Flame Explode!” Ye Yu shouted, and a void flame that was several times thicker than before, with a destructive momentum, slammed towards the puppet’s eyes.
“roar–“
A shrill roar resounded throughout the entire space, and the hard rock puppet began to tremble violently as if struck by lightning. The originally flashing magic runes also began to flicker and became shaky.
“There’s hope!” When everyone saw this scene, their morale was immediately boosted, and they burst out with amazing fighting power again, launching fierce attacks on the puppet.
At this moment, Ye Yu felt an even more powerful force surge within him. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he once again concentrated his magic power. The flames of the void pulsed in his palm, becoming even more dazzling…
A confident arc appeared on Ye Yu’s lips. He raised his right hand again. The void flame in his palm was like a miniature sun, emitting a heart-pounding heat.
“It’s time to send this piece of iron on its way!”
He integrated the power of the Void Flame into a brand new magic “Void Flame Bomb!”
Whoosh!
A fireball condensed from the flames of the void, with a sharp scream, cut through the air and headed straight for the puppet.
The fireball continued to expand in the air, and eventually turned into a huge fireball, slamming heavily into the puppet.
A deafening explosion sounded, and the entire space seemed to be shaking. The violent shock wave shook the surrounding rubble into the air.
The puppet howled in pain under the bombardment of the void fire bomb. The rocks on its body began to crack and eventually disintegrated into countless fragments, scattered on the ground.
“bite!”
A crisp sound signaled the end of the battle.
The puppet completely turned into a pile of scrap metal. In its original place, an ancient treasure chest lay there quietly, emitting an alluring light.
“Holy crap! I won already?” Tomaru was completely bewildered, feeling like he was dreaming.
“Yeah! We won!” Yukino jumped up excitedly, tears almost coming out.
Zhu Bian also smiled rarely. She glanced at Ye Yu secretly and couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, this guy is really something.
Ye Yu ignored the cheers of the crowd. He walked to the treasure chest, took a deep breath, and slowly opened it.
“Wow!”
Everyone exclaimed in surprise. Inside the treasure chest, there lay quietly a magic gem emitting a soft light. This was exactly the goal of their trip – an ancient magic treasure.
The greed in Jed’s eyes could no longer be concealed. He stepped in front of the treasure chest and wanted to snatch the treasure, but Ye Yu grabbed his wrist.
“Jade, put away your little thoughts!” Ye Yu looked at Jed coldly.
Jade was intimidated by Ye Yu’s aura and dared not act rashly again.
At this moment, Ye Yu’s prestige in everyone’s hearts reached its peak.
However, just as they were about to leave with the treasure, a noisy sound of footsteps was heard at the entrance of the passage.
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect you little brats to actually find the treasure!”
The bandit wizards who had escaped before appeared in front of them again, each with a ferocious smile on their face.
“Hmph, these guys are really lingering around!” Ye Yu snorted coldly, with the flames of battle burning in his eyes.
“Prepare for battle! Let them see our true strength!” Ye Yu gave an order and everyone quickly entered combat status.
This time, Ye Yu did not fight alone, but began to command everyone and give full play to their respective strengths.
Jubian used water magic to restrict the robbers’ movements, Jade’s earth magic created traps on the ground, Leon’s ice magic froze the enemy’s hands and feet, Tomaru used brute force to directly break up the enemy’s formation, and Yukino’s auxiliary magic enhanced everyone’s combat effectiveness.
Under Ye Yu’s command, everyone cooperated with each other and had a tacit understanding, defeating the bandits and rendering them in disarray.
“Damn it! How did these guys become so powerful!” The bandit leader looked terrified.
“Retreat! Retreat quickly!” The bandit leader gave an order, and the remaining bandits threw away their weapons and armor and fled in panic.
Ye Yu looked at their fleeing backs, with a slight smile on his face. They successfully protected the treasure and returned to the Fairy Tail Guild with the glory of victory.
After returning to the guild, Ye Yu and his team became the focus of everyone’s attention. Not only did they complete the task, they also taught the bandit magician a lesson and won honor for the guild.
But Ye Yu knew that this was just the beginning. Next, he would face the magic competition within Fairy Tail. He didn’t know what challenges he would encounter in the competition, and his heart was full of anticipation and nervousness.
“Ye Yu, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time…” A voice came faintly from the corner of the guild hall, with a hint of amusement and a hint of…
With ill intentions.
Chapter 19: First Tournament (Old Version)
“Ye Yu, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time…” From the corner of the guild hall, Philid’s sinister voice came with a hint of amusement.
Ye Yu turned his head and saw Philid leaning against the wall, holding a competition registration form in his hand and a meaningful smile on his face.
An ominous premonition came over me.
The Fairy Tail Magic Competition is an annual event within the guild.
Ye Yu came to the arena with a nervous and expectant mood. The air was filled with gunpowder. People around him were talking, and everyone’s face was filled with excitement and nervousness.
He walked to the drawing area, took a deep breath, reached out and pulled out a slip of paper.
“Gajeel Redfox.” Ye Yu read out the name on the note, and his heart sank.
Gajeel, Fairy Tail’s “Iron Dragon,” is known for his destructive power and fierce fighting style.
There was a cry of surprise all around, and everyone turned their eyes to Ye Yu. He knew that he had drawn the worst lot, and the pressure was like a mountain.
“Hehe, newcomer, I didn’t expect to meet me so soon.” Gajeel grinned, revealing his sharp teeth. Alba Green, who was standing beside him, also cast a contemptuous look and whispered, “You don’t know your own abilities.” Ye Yu clenched his fists silently. He knew that this game would be extremely difficult.
The bell rang to signal the start of the match.
Gajeel launched the attack without hesitation, “Roar of the Iron Dragon!” The huge iron dragon roared and rushed towards Ye Yu, and the deafening roar resounded throughout the arena.
Ye Yu dodged quickly, and the roaring iron dragon flew past his body, leaving deep grooves on the ground.
“Is that all you can do? A newcomer is a newcomer.” Gajeel laughed wildly as he continued to launch a fierce attack, using iron fists, iron claws, and iron tail, each move was fatal.
Ye Yu was so busy dodging that he had no chance to fight back.
“Too weak, too weak! Is this the newcomer of Fairy Tail?” Gajeel’s mocking voice continued to come, pricking Ye Yu’s self-esteem like a needle.
Anger began to burn in his heart, but reason told him not to act impulsively.
The eyes of the surrounding audiences were all focused on the field.
“This won’t work.” Ye Yu thought to himself.
He must find a way to turn the situation around.
Facing Gajeel’s violent attack, Ye Yu’s eyes suddenly became sharp.
“Do you think…I can only hide?”
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer.
“Let me show you what real magic is!” He stopped dodging and rushed towards Gajeel’s attack.
This display of skill stunned the entire audience, with comments flooding the screen instantly: “666, this guy is quite something!”, “Giving away a kill? I think he just wants to die!”
Ye Yu quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something.
Seeing this, Gajeel thought to himself, “A mere trifle!” He increased the intensity of his attack, and his iron fist, wrapped in a strong wind, smashed towards Ye Yu fiercely.
“Dance of the Void!” Ye Yu shouted softly, and a faint purple light suddenly appeared around his body.
This layer of light acted like a shield, neutralizing all of Gajeel’s attacks.
The audience exclaimed in surprise: “What kind of magic is this? So cool!”, “Holy crap, can it be done like this?”
Gajeel was also surprised by this sudden change. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to have this trick.
The brief moment of daze gave Ye Yu an opportunity. He flashed and went behind Gajeel.
“Try this!” Ye Yu slapped Gajeel on the back, and a powerful force burst out instantly.
Gajeel stumbled a few steps and nearly fell to the ground.
He roared, turned around and pounced on Ye Yu.
“Bang!” The two men clashed again, and a powerful shock wave swept across the entire arena.
Although Ye Yu used the Void Dance to neutralize most of the attacks, he was still hit by Gajeel’s iron fist. He felt a sharp pain and felt like his bones were about to break.
“Damn it!” Ye Yu cursed inwardly and involuntarily took a few steps back.
Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but there was no fear in his eyes. Instead, his eyes were burning with an even stronger fighting spirit.
Gajeel saw this,
“Hahaha, newcomer, admit defeat! You are no match for me!” Gajeel laughed wildly, he felt that victory was just around the corner.
“Give up?” Ye Yu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared at Gajeel with cold eyes.
“The game… has just begun…”
A sneer appeared on Ye Yu’s lips, “This is my true power!” He growled, and between his palms, a ball of dark purple flame burned fiercely, emitting a suffocating and terrifying aura.
This is exactly the golden finger he obtained after traveling through time the Flame of the Void!
“Void Devour!” Ye Yu pushed out the Void Flame in his hand fiercely. The dark purple flame was like a flexible poisonous snake, instantly wrapping around Gajeel’s iron fist.
A shocking scene occurred. The Iron Dragon Magic Flame that Gajeel was proud of was actually being continuously devoured and absorbed by this strange purple flame!
“What?!” Gajeel widened his eyes and looked at the scene in disbelief.
He felt his strength rapidly draining away, and the flame on his iron fist became dim.
The audience was in an uproar, with all kinds of exclamations and discussions coming one after another.
“What the hell! What kind of magic is this? It can actually devour the flames of an iron dragon!”, “This kid is really good at hiding himself, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!”, “Now we’re going to see some fun!”
Ye Yu seized this opportunity and launched a counterattack without mercy.
“Void Explosion!” The dark purple flames transformed into countless sharp blades and shot towards Gajeel.
Gajeel was caught off guard and was knocked back repeatedly by the sudden attack, leaving several charred marks on his body.
“Impossible! I am the Iron Dragon Gajeel!” Gajeel roared and attacked again, but the power of his magic was no longer as strong as before.
Ye Yu dodged his attacks flexibly, while constantly using the Void Flame to consume his strength.
The audience was completely conquered by Ye Yu’s wonderful performance, and the cheers came one after another like waves.
“Ye Yu! Ye Yu!”, “Down with the Iron Dragon! Down with the Iron Dragon!”
Alba Green, hiding in the crowd, saw Ye Yu gaining the upper hand, and the flames of jealousy burned in her eyes.
She sneaked up to the judge and whispered, “Mr. Judge, the magic used by Ye Yu is forbidden magic. He violated the rules of the competition!”
The staid judge, believing Alba Green’s words, frowned and immediately announced, “The competition is suspended! Ye Yu is suspected of using forbidden magic and is disqualified!”
Ye Yu was stunned by the sudden verdict. He angrily argued, “I didn’t use forbidden magic! This is my…”
“Shut up! The judge’s decision cannot be questioned!” the judge shouted.
There was an uproar in the audience, and many people stood up for Ye Yu.
“This is so unfair! Ye Yu clearly has the upper hand, why should he be disqualified?” “Did the reviewer accept bribes from Alba Green?”
Ye Yu looked at the reviewer’s serious face and was filled with worry.
He knew that if he could not prove his innocence, he would be in danger of being expelled from the guild…
“Come with me to the referee’s room.” The judge said coldly and turned away.
Chapter 20: Void Flame is Taboo? (Old Version)
The road to appeal: another difficult battle
Ye Yu followed the judges into the dimly lit referee room, where the air was filled with the smell of stale wood.
He took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart.
“Mr. Councillor, Void Flame is not forbidden magic. It is me…”
“Stop it,” the reviewer interrupted him impatiently, drumming his fat fingers on the table. “Someone saw with their own eyes that the magic you used was extremely bizarre, clearly forbidden magic! Still trying to quibble?”
Ye Yu felt like he had punched cotton, and all the explanations in his heart were stuck in his throat.
“I can show you with magic…”
“No need!” The councilor slammed the table so hard that the teacup jumped up. “We have invited Lidasu to prove whether your injury was caused by forbidden magic.”
Ridasu came in timidly, like a frightened rabbit.
He hesitated for a long time before whispering, “That…Ye Yu’s injury…looks…like…ordinary…”
“Like what? Speak more clearly!” the reviewer shouted.
Lidasu shuddered with fear, and beads of sweat ran down his forehead.
“It’s like… an ordinary… game injury…”
Ye Yu was extremely anxious and wanted to kick him.
“Ridasu! Take a closer look. My injuries are healing very quickly. This is clearly a characteristic of the Void Flame. It can…”
“Shut up! Are you threatening the witness?” The judge stood up suddenly, pointed at Ye Yu’s nose and cursed, “I see that you not only used forbidden magic, but also dared to intimidate the witness in the courtroom. Your crime is even more serious!”
Alba Green, who was watching the show from the sidelines, did not forget to add fuel to the fire: “Mr. Councillor, I have long felt that this boy’s magic is very suspicious. His flames are of strange colors, and…”
Ye Yu felt like a wrongly accused prisoner. The air around him became thin, and he felt so depressed that he couldn’t breathe.
He glared at Alba Green angrily, wishing he could tear her face, which was covered with cheap powder, into pieces.
“Enough!” The judge sat back heavily in his chair, picked up a quill and wrote something on the document, “Ye Yu, considering that you used forbidden magic, violated the rules of the competition, disrupted the order of the competition, and intimidated witnesses, I declare…”
He paused, and glanced at Ye Yu coldly, “Disqualify you from the competition, and…”
“Wait a minute!” A deep voice came from outside the door.
The door was pushed open with a creaky sound, and the person who came in was the Fairy Tail president – Makarov!
He leaned on a cane, his hoarse voice making the referee room buzz: “What’s going on? Such a noise, how disgraceful!”
Ye Yu seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and quickly shouted: “President! I’ve been wronged!”
Makarov’s sharp eyes swept across everyone and finally landed on Ye Yu: “Tell me slowly, what’s going on?”
At the critical moment, Ye Yu suddenly remembered the fragment in his reincarnation memory where Naz was also slandered for using forbidden magic in the original work.
An idea suddenly struck him, and he came up with a plan: “President, Void Flame isn’t forbidden magic! There must be records of it in the magic tome in the Guild Library! As long as we find the records, I can prove my innocence!”
The judge frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, “Well, I’ll give you one last chance. If you can’t find any relevant records, then prepare to be punished!”
A ray of hope illuminated Ye Yu’s heart.
He walked quickly towards the library, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly.
However, things did not go so smoothly.
“Hey, isn’t this Ye Yu? What? Do you want to go to the library to turn over?” Philid’s sarcastic voice came from behind.
Ye Yu turned around abruptly and glared at him: “Felide, what do you want to do?”
Felide’s mouth curled up into a cold smile, and he quickly wrote some strange words in his hand: “Nothing, just want to see the excitement.”
Ye Yu keenly noticed that the words exuded a strange magical power, which seemed to be interfering with the magic circle of the library.
He immediately understood that Philid was doing something behind the scenes!
“You…” Ye Yu was furious and grabbed Filid’s collar, “How dare you…”
Felide met his gaze fearlessly, his eyes filled with provocation: “What? You want to hit me? Do you still think you are qualified to participate? I advise you to admit defeat and avoid embarrassment!”
Ye Yu fiercely pushed Philide away and said through gritted teeth, “Philide, just wait for me! I will definitely make you regret this!”
Felide smiled disdainfully, turned and left, leaving behind a contemptuous back.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He knew that now was not the time to act on impulse.
He must find evidence to prove his innocence as soon as possible, otherwise everything will be over.
Just when he was at a loss, a timid voice came from behind him: “Ye Yu… I… I can help you…”
Ye Yu turned around and saw that it was Lidasu!
He held a thick magic book in his hand, his eyes filled with hesitation…
Lidasu timidly handed the magic book in his hand to Ye Yu and whispered, “This… this… I found it…”
Ye Yu quickly took the book and began to flip through it quickly.
He knew this might be his last chance.
His fingers slid across the pages quickly, his eyes scanning every line of text, his heart pounding nervously.
“Found it!” Ye Yu shouted excitedly, pointing to a passage in the book and saying, “Mr. Councillor, please look! The characteristics of the Void Flame are clearly recorded here. It is not forbidden magic!”
The reviewer took the book and read it carefully, his brow furrowed and his expression shifting from gloomy to happy.
“This…” The commentator’s tone softened noticeably. “It seems… we misunderstood you…”
Alba Green and Felide on the side looked very ugly, as if they had eaten a fly.
“Ahem,” the judge cleared his throat. “In that case, Ye Yu, your eligibility is restored. Now, you can continue the competition.”
Thunderous cheers erupted from the audience: “Ye Yu! Ye Yu!”
Ye Yu took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and returned to the field.
He felt like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, full of strength!
“Don’t think you’ve won, kid!” Gajeel grinned, revealing his sharp teeth. “I won’t show mercy!”
“That’s exactly what I want!” Ye Yu retorted without showing any weakness, “Today I’ll let you see my true strength!”
The game begins again!
Gajeel’s iron fist smashed towards Ye Yu with a whistling sound. Ye Yu dodged flexibly, and the void flame jumped in his hand, dissolving Gajeel’s attack.
“Roar of the Iron Dragon!” Gajeel roared, and a stream of blazing flames spewed out of his mouth.
“Flame of the Void, devour!” Ye Yu was not in a hurry. He raised the flame in his hand and devoured Gajeel’s flame completely.
The two fought back and forth, and the fight was difficult to determine. The audience was dazzled and kept exclaiming in surprise.
However, at this moment, Ye Yu’s old injury relapsed and his movements began to become slow.
Gajeel noticed his abnormality, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and his attack became more fierce!
“Iron Dragon’s…”
Ye Yu gritted his teeth and dodged Gajeel’s attack with difficulty, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead.
He could feel that his physical strength was rapidly draining away…
“Damn it…” Ye Yu cursed softly, his heart full of worry.
He didn’t know how much longer he could hold on…
“Boy, I wonder how long you can hold on!” Gajeel’s attacks became more and more fierce, his tone full of teasing, “Give up, you…”
Chapter 21: A Narrow Victory Despite Injury (Old Version)
“Iron Dragon’s Sword!” Gajeel’s arm turned into a sharp steel blade, and with a sharp sound of breaking wind, it pierced Ye Yu’s chest!
Ye Yu dodged it with a backflip, but the sharp sword energy still cut through his clothes, leaving a bloody mark on his chest.
“Hiss–” Ye Yu took a breath of cold air. The old injuries plus the new injuries made him feel like his body was burning.
“Boy, that’s all you can do!” Gajeel grinned and attacked again.
Ye Yu gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and dodged Gajeel’s attack with difficulty.
He knew he couldn’t fall, he had to win!
The audience around him were all worried for him, and the atmosphere in the entire arena was extremely tense.
“Come on, Ye Yu!” “Hold on!” Cheers came one after another from the audience, but Ye Yu felt that he could not hold on any longer.
“Bang!” Ye Yu was hit by Gajeel again and fell heavily to the ground.
He felt like his bones were about to fall apart and all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away.
“Haha, weakling! You want to fight me with this little ability?” Gajeel stood in front of Ye Yu and sneered condescendingly.
“You…don’t be too proud!” Ye Yu struggled to stand up, but his body refused to obey him.
“Give up, you’ve already lost!” Gajeel raised his iron fist, ready to give Ye Yu the final blow.
“Stop!” Liu Xue’s voice suddenly rang out, but she was stopped by the judges, “The game is not over yet, no one can interfere!” “But…” Liu Xue looked at Ye Yu who was lying on the ground anxiously, her heart full of worry.
Ye Yu’s vision began to blur and he felt that he was about to lose consciousness.
Could it be that…
Is this how it ends?
No, I won’t give in!
At this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through Ye Yu’s mind…
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a strange smile, “Haha, the game has just begun…”
Just when everyone thought Ye Yu was going to lose the game, he suddenly burst out with strong willpower.
In Ye Yu’s mind, it was like a movie being played, and an extreme magic technique from his reincarnation memory emerged.
He was delighted and suddenly increased the power of the Void Flame to the extreme.
In an instant, Ye Yu’s body was surrounded by flames, and the scorching temperature caused the surrounding air to distort.
Visually, the flames are like living spirits, jumping happily.
Audibly, the burning flames made a whooshing sound, like a roar.
In terms of touch, Ye Yu only felt a powerful force surging in his body, and the pain seemed to be dispelled a lot by the flame.
The audience was so shocked by his aura of rebirth from the ashes that their eyes widened and their mouths opened so wide that eggs could fit in them.
Ye Yu began to fight back. He waved his hands and a magic attack roared out with the powerful force of the Void Flame.
The attack’s increased power caught Gajeel off guard by his sudden outburst, forcing him to scramble to defend himself.
Ye Yu would not give him a chance to breathe and continued to attack.
Each attack was like a blockbuster bomb, carrying such powerful force that the ground shook slightly.
Gajeel gradually fell into a disadvantage and was defeated.
The audience around him cheered continuously, “Ye Yu, awesome!” “This is real strength!”
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, his eyes firm and cold. He stared at Gajeel and said coldly: “Today, I will let you see that I am more powerful than this.” After that, he began to make seals with his hands quickly, and an even more powerful force gathered in his hands.
“Void Flame Explosion!” Ye Yu shouted loudly and pushed his palms forward.
I saw a huge ball of black flame, mixed with blue flames, roaring towards Gajeel like a roaring beast.
This flame seemed to come from the depths of hell, with the power to burn everything, making people afraid.
Visually, the black flames and the dark blue flames intertwine, like flowers of death blooming in the night sky, gorgeous and dangerous.
Acoustically, the flames erupted with a deafening roar, like the roar of an ancient beast.
To the touch, the air around became extremely hot, as if you were in a furnace.
Gajeel’s face changed drastically. He instinctively felt the horror of this move and wanted to dodge, but found that his body seemed to be locked and he couldn’t move at all.
The black flames instantly engulfed him, and the huge impact force slammed him to the ground.
There was a loud bang, and the entire arena shook.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Gajeel was seen lying in a huge pit, motionless. The armor on his body was shattered, revealing the flesh and blood inside.
He struggled to stand up, but eventually fell down weakly.
“The winner is Ye Yu!” The referee’s voice resounded throughout the arena.
Thunderous cheers broke out in the audience, “Ye Yu! Ye Yu! Ye Yu!” They waved the flags in their hands and cheered for Ye Yu’s victory.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, bathed in the cheers of the crowd, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
He felt the power surging within him
Alba Green and Felide’s faces turned pale and they left the arena in shame.
The previous contempt and ridicule towards Ye Yu now turned into a slap in the face, burning with pain.
The judge walked up to Ye Yu and solemnly announced: “Ye Yu, congratulations on advancing to the next round. Your strength deserves the respect of all of us.” His previous doubts about Ye Yu also disappeared at this moment.
Ye Yu looked at the cheering crowd, his heart filled with pride.
He took another step towards the final, but he also knew that the next challenge would be even more severe.
Who will be the opponent in the next round?
He was filled with anticipation and nervousness.
Chapter 22: Fighting Gajeel Again (Old Version)
Return to the battlefield: encounter powerful enemies again
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, with deafening cheers in his ears, like waves hitting his eardrums.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the surging power in his body, which was a symbol of the growing strength of the Void Flame.
He knew that this was just the beginning and that more powerful opponents were waiting for him.
“The next game is about to begin!” The commentator’s voice was amplified by magic, resounding throughout the arena, instantly igniting the passion of the audience again.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and scanned the passage. He held his breath and waited for his opponent to appear.
When he saw the figure slowly walking out of the passage, his heart skipped a beat. It was Gajeel!
This iron dragon is coming to challenge me again.
“Oh shit, it’s Gajeel again!” The audience erupted in laughter. “This is going to be a good show! Gajeel lost so badly last time, he’s definitely going to get revenge this time!”
Gajeel walked onto the arena, emitting a cold murderous aura. He stared at Ye Yu with eyes like a beast, his mouth wide open, revealing a bloodthirsty smile: “Boy, you were lucky last time. This time, I will let you know how powerful the Iron Dragon is!”
The corners of Ye Yu’s mouth rose slightly. He was eager to fight and wanted to become stronger in the battle.
He spread out his hands, his palms flickering with void flames, as if responding to Gajeel’s provocation.
“The game begins!” With the order from the reviewer, Gajeel launched an attack instantly, rushing towards Ye Yu like a steel cannonball.
He was no longer as reckless as last time. His attacks became more methodical. His fists made sharp sounds of breaking through the air, and his attacks came like a storm.
Ye Yu’s eyes flashed, and he moved quickly, constantly dodging Gajeel’s fierce attacks.
Gajeel’s attack was sharper and more powerful than last time.
The steel armor on his fists rubbed against the air, making a harsh metal collision sound, and every attack seemed to tear the space apart.
Although Ye Yu dodged most of the attacks with his agility, he was still hit several times. There were a few shallow blood marks on his chest and arms. The old wounds were affected, and the burning pain made his movements a little slow.
“Damn, this guy is really serious!” Ye Yu cursed in his heart. He could feel that Gajeel’s strength had improved a lot.
This battle was far more difficult than he had imagined.
He was like a small boat in a storm, which could be swallowed by the huge waves at any time.
Just when Ye Yu was distracted for a moment, Gajeel suddenly punched him in the chest with a heavy punch. The huge force directly knocked him out and he fell heavily to the ground. It seemed as if his internal organs were displaced.
Before he could recover, Gajeel rushed up again, like a tireless steel beast, his attack wave after wave.
Ye Yu’s face turned pale and he felt like he was about to collapse.
He felt that this challenge had far exceeded his expectations.
Just when his mind was in a mess, a long-forgotten memory suddenly flooded into Ye Yu’s mind, like a flash of lightning, breaking through the darkness.
“Wait, I seem to have seen this move somewhere…” A light bulb went off in Ye Yu’s mind, and a dusty fragment of memory suddenly emerged.
That was the defensive magic he had seen in an anime in his previous life – “Guardian of Flame”!
In the blink of an eye, Ye Yu clasped his hands together and muttered something. The flames of the void quickly condensed in front of him, forming a flame shield that flashed with a faint blue light.
“Bang!” Gajeel’s iron fist slammed hard on the shield, making a deafening noise.
However, the shield remained motionless, protecting Ye Yu firmly.
“Holy crap! What kind of magic is this?” There were exclamations from the audience, and everyone was stunned by this sudden change.
Even Gajeel was stunned. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be able to use such defensive magic.
Ye Yu’s mouth curled up slightly. He slowly stood up, dusted himself off, and said, “This is just the beginning!”
Gajeel roared, attacking again.
He released all the magic power in his body and smashed Ye Yu with his fists like raindrops.
“A mere trifle!” Ye Yu sneered. The shield of the Void Flame not only has amazing defensive power, but can also absorb flame energy.
Every attack of Gajeel is equivalent to replenishing Ye Yu’s energy.
“This kid is quite something!” The commentator touched his chin and watched the game with great interest.
After Ye Yu absorbed enough energy, he began to fight back.
His body was as fast as lightning, weaving through Gajeel’s attacks, and every punch he threw was filled with scorching void flames.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
A series of attacks forced Gajeel to retreat repeatedly, leaving several charred marks on his body.
“How…how is this possible?” Gajeel
The audience around was excited and cheered for Ye Yu’s wonderful performance.
“Ye Yu! Come on!” Liu Xue’s voice came from the audience, adding infinite motivation to Ye Yu.
Ye Yu took a deep breath. He knew it was time to end this battle…
He slowly raised his right hand, and in the center of his palm, a ball of even more dazzling void flames was gathering…
“What…what is this?” Gajeel felt an unprecedented sense of crisis…
The void flame in Ye Yu’s palm seemed to have life at this moment, spinning wildly and gradually forming the shape of a burning dragon head.
“Let me show you this. This is specially prepared for you – the roar of the fire dragon!” Ye Yu curled the corners of his mouth and suddenly pushed out the “dragon head” in his hand.
The fire dragon let out a deafening roar and pounced towards Gajeel with the momentum to burn everything.
Gajeel’s face changed drastically, and he hastily gathered his magic power to form a steel barrier in front of him.
With a loud “clang”, the dragon crashed into the barrier, bursting into a dazzling light, and the entire arena trembled.
Although Gajeel tried his best to resist, the power of the Fire Dragon’s roar was too strong, and the steel barrier shattered after only a moment.
Gajeel was knocked back several steps by the huge impact, and his legs plowed two deep grooves in the ground.
“It’s not over yet!” Ye Yu took advantage of the victory and continued to attack, waving his hands continuously. The roars of fire dragons bombarded Gajeel like a machine gun.
Gajeel was caught in a dilemma and was exhausted from dealing with the situation. Several blackened burn marks appeared on his body, and his originally violent aura was gradually suppressed.
“Fuck, this is too awesome!” “Ye Yu is awesome!” Cheers and shouts came from the audience, almost blowing the roof of the arena off.
Liu Xue was also waving her arms excitedly in the crowd, her eyes full of pride and admiration.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and poured all the remaining magic power into the Void Flame.
The flame in the palm of his hand suddenly expanded and turned into a huge fireball.
“Let’s end it!” Ye Yu shouted and threw the fireball at Gajeel.
“Boom!” The fireball exploded on Gajeel’s body, with a deafening roar, and the entire arena was shrouded in flames.
When the flames died down, Gajeel was seen lying on the ground, motionless, unconscious.
“The winner is Ye Yu!” The judge’s voice resounded throughout the venue, and the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, feeling the joy of victory
However, the fierce battle also consumed a lot of his physical strength, and he felt waves of fatigue surging in his heart.
What kind of challenges await him in the finals?
He didn’t know, but his heart was full of anticipation and worry…
Ye Yu dragged his tired body and slowly walked down the arena.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear: “Boy, good job…”
Chapter 23 New Challenges (Old Version)
Ye Yu dragged his tired but excited body and slowly stepped into the final arena.
What caught Ye Yu’s eye was a strange figure. The man was wearing a black cloak that covered his entire body tightly, leaving only a pair of cold eyes exposed. He looked like a poisonous snake lurking in the darkness. Ye Yu felt scared at the sight. This opponent was quite something!
The audience around them were also in an uproar, discussing this mysterious magician:
“Who is this person? Why have I never seen him before?”
“Yeah, is there such a person in Fairy Tail? He’s not a dark horse who came out of nowhere, is he?”
“Looking at his outfit, he looks very sinister. Could he be a villain?”
Ye Yu listened to these voices with a frown on his face. Who is this guy?
He quickly flipped through the reincarnation memories in his mind, trying to find any clues about this opponent, but he found that there was no such person in his memory at all, as if this guy appeared out of thin air. This was unscientific!
Is it the butterfly effect?
He felt a little uneasy. It seemed that this competition would not be that easy.
The game begins!
With the somewhat old-fashioned voice of the judges, the competition officially began.
However, what surprised Ye Yu was that the mysterious magician on the opposite side did not launch an attack directly as in the usual games. Instead, he stood still, muttering to himself as if he was chanting some spell. A strange aura emanated from his body, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling. This routine was a bit abnormal!
Ye Yu carefully condensed the flame of the void, and a ball of red flame danced in his palm. He planned to test the opponent’s strength first. After all, knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles!
He threw the flame in his hand fiercely towards his opponent. However, just when the flame was about to hit the mysterious wizard, something strange happened. The flame actually changed direction in mid-air and flew back towards Ye Yu at a faster speed. What the hell was going on?
Ye Yu was unable to dodge and was hit head-on by the flames he had emitted. He felt a dull pain in his chest and felt as if his internal organs were about to shift. A burnt smell followed, and it seemed that he had been roasted by himself.
“Damn! Is there such a thing?” Ye Yu was shocked. He never expected such a thing to happen. Could it be a counterattack?
This is a lack of martial ethics!
There is definitely something wrong with this opponent!
He stared at the mysterious wizard warily, trying to figure out what kind of magic he was using.
“Interesting.” The mysterious wizard raised his lips slightly, revealing a strange smile.
Ye Yu’s heart beat faster and his eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to catch a glimpse of the mysterious magician.
He leaped suddenly and dodged to the side, his whole body tense and his nerves stretched like a fully drawn bowstring.
There was a suffocating tension in the air, and even the noise of the audience seemed distant and vague.
“Snap!” A slight sound came to Ye Yu’s ears, and then a chill rushed straight up his spine from behind.
His heart shuddered, and before he could fully react, a cold fist had already grazed his shoulder, causing a stinging pain.
Ye Yu rolled over and barely avoided the fatal blow, but the skin on his shoulder was scratched and blood slowly seeped out.
“This kid is so difficult to deal with!” The voice of the mysterious magician came from behind Ye Yu, with a bit of surprise and unwillingness.
The audience also exclaimed continuously, obviously shocked by this sudden anti-routine style of play.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, endured the severe pain in his shoulder, and quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
He couldn’t continue to passively take the beating, he had to find a way to break the deadlock.
He closed his eyes, feeling the surge of the void flame, and gradually spreading this power throughout his body.
The crimson flames were like a layer of armor, wrapping him tightly.
“Come on!” Ye Yu shouted and rushed to the empty center of the venue.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed from behind the nearby pillar, and the mysterious magician launched another attack.
But this time, the Void Flame was like an indestructible shield, blocking every attack from the opponent.
Mysterious Wizard
Ye Yu seized the opportunity, jumped up suddenly, and the flame in his hand was like a cannonball, hitting the mysterious magician directly.
The mysterious wizard dodged in panic, but was still hit by the aftermath of the fire and staggered back.
With a gleam of victory in Ye Yu’s eyes, he pressed forward step by step.
“Who are you?” Ye Yu’s voice was low and firm, and the flame of the void was burning in his palm, as if cheering him on.
“You will regret this…” The mysterious wizard’s words came to an abrupt end. He suddenly disappeared from the spot, as if swallowed by an invisible force.
And there was an even more determined light flashing in Ye Yu’s eyes.
The mysterious magician was not to be outdone, and he used all kinds of strange and bizarre magic, which was as colorful as fireworks and very beautiful to see.
Sometimes black tentacles appeared out of thin air, and sometimes poisonous butterflies flew all over the sky, which was dazzling to watch.
Ye Yu thought to himself: This guy must be from a circus, right?
Juggling?
But he did not dare to be careless. The flames of the void burned fiercely, forming a wall of fire, which dissolved these fancy attacks one by one.
During the battle, Ye Yu keenly discovered that although the magic of this mysterious wizard looked intimidating, its attack power was actually not strong, and it was more like a interference tactic.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly: That’s it?
I’m a veteran, I’ve seen all kinds of storms!
He began to take the initiative to attack, and the Void Flame was no longer just for defense, but turned into fire dragons, roaring and rushing towards the opponent.
Ye Yu’s attacks became more and more fierce, and the flames of the void were cleverly integrated with his own magic, doubling the power.
He even developed new moves, such as “Fire Explosion Rasengan” and “Fire God’s Wrath”. Although the names are childish, their power should not be underestimated.
The mysterious wizard gradually couldn’t stand it anymore, and his original playful expression turned into horror.
“Void Flame Prison!” Ye Yu shouted and injected all his magic power into the void flame, forming a huge fireball that emitted suffocating heat waves.
The fireball hit the mysterious wizard like a meteorite, completely devouring him.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, a huge mushroom cloud rose in the center of the arena. After the smoke dissipated, the mysterious wizard had fallen to the ground, unconscious.
The whole audience was silent, all shocked by Ye Yu’s shocking attack.
A moment later, thunderous applause and cheers broke out in the audience.
“Ye Yusheng!” the reviewer announced loudly, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, bathed in the gazes of the crowd, feeling the supreme glory.
Immersed in the joy of winning the championship, Ye Yu suddenly felt a chill on his back. A deep voice rang in his ears: “Young man, congratulations, come with me…”
Chapter 24: A New Test (Old Version)
Peak of Glory: A New Journey
Ye Yu was still immersed in the afterglow of victory. The thunderous cheers from the audience surged like a tide, one wave higher than the other, making his eardrums numb.
He enjoyed this hard-earned glory, felt the awe and envy of the crowd, and couldn’t help feeling a little elated.
“Congratulations, young man. Come with me…”
A low voice suddenly sounded in Ye Yu’s ears, exploding like thunder.
He was suddenly startled, and a chill instantly ran down his back, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
He slowly turned his head and saw a man in a black robe, his face hidden in the shadows.
This person exudes an aura of majesty without even being angry, making people dare not look directly at him.
Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat, and his intuition told him that this person was a high-ranking member of the Fairy Tail guild.
“Yes… yes, sir.” Ye Yu tried hard to calm himself down. Although he was panicking inside, he pretended to be calm on the surface and responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.
He followed the man in black robes and left the noisy arena.
Along the way, countless eyes were focused on Ye Yu, some with envy, some with curiosity, and some with confusion.
People were whispering and speculating about why Ye Yu was summoned by the guild’s top management.
Ye Yu felt like a monkey in a zoo, being watched by so many people, making him feel uncomfortable.
He followed the man in black robes all the way to a simply decorated room.
The room was empty except for a rustic wooden table and a few chairs.
The man in black robe slowly turned around, and the face hidden in the shadows finally appeared.
He was an old man with a stern face and sharp eyes.
“Ye Yu, we have all seen your strength.” The old man spoke slowly, his voice low and magnetic, full of majesty.
“You truly have the potential to become the strongest wizard.”
Ye Yu nodded slightly, secretly alert in his heart
“However, if you want to truly become the pillar of Fairy Tail, strength alone is not enough.” The old man’s tone changed and became sharp.
“You need to pass a test.”
“Test?” Ye Yu was shocked and had a bad premonition.
“Yes, an extremely harsh test.” The old man stared at Ye Yu with eyes as sharp as knives, as if he wanted to see through his heart. “You must complete an almost impossible task within a limited time. If you fail, you will lose the glory of the championship and be expelled from Fairy Tail forever.”
When Ye Yu heard this, his heart felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over it, and he instantly felt cold.
He was just enjoying the joy of victory, but in the blink of an eye, he was facing the danger of falling into the abyss.
This was a roller coaster experience, so exciting that his heart almost jumped out.
“What?!”
Ye Yu felt like he was being pressed to the ground by fate. Is this really what someone who just won the championship should experience?
He felt like he might have gotten a fake script.
The old man looked at Ye Yu’s shocked expression, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, “Think about it carefully…”
Ye Yu’s brain was working rapidly, and this sudden change made him a little confused.
What is going on?
Are you kidding me?
You’re trying to intimidate me right after winning the championship?
He tried hard to force out a smile that was uglier than crying. “Um… Sir, can you tell me what the mission is? That way I can be mentally prepared…”
The old man smiled mysteriously and shook his head, the secret cannot be revealed.
He paused, then added, “However, I can give you a hint: it has something to do with fire.”
“Related to fire?” Ye Yu’s heart moved, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.
Wait, fire?
Isn t this my home turf?
Flame of the Void, hehe, it seems that my golden finger will come in handy!
He appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually beaming with joy in his heart.
Ye Yu’s eyes rolled, and he began to search frantically in his reincarnation memories, just like entering keywords into the Baidu search engine, trying to find information related to “fire”, “test”, and “Fairy Tail”.
Surprisingly, he actually found a clue!
A fragment about “lava lizard” and “fire in the earth’s core” came to his mind.
The “Lava Monitor” lives in a dangerous area filled with magma in the Fairy Tail world. It guards a special flame called “Core Fire”.
This flame is not only powerful, but also has extremely high alchemical value. It is a treasure that many magicians dream of.
“I got it!” Ye Yu was secretly happy, and a bold plan gradually took shape.
He remembered that in his reincarnation memories, he had seen a special technique that used the flames of the void to absorb other flames and increase their power several times.
If he could absorb the Earth’s Core Fire, not only would he be able to complete the test from the guild’s higher-ups, but he could also further enhance his own strength. It would be like killing two birds with one stone!
Ye Yu took a deep breath and looked at the old man with a firm gaze, “Sir, I accept this test!”
The old man was slightly stunned, as if he didn’t expect Ye Yu to agree so readily. “Oh? It seems that you are very confident. I hope your strength can match your confidence.”
Ye Yu’s confidence also infected the others present, and the atmosphere instantly became tense and full of anticipation.
Those who were originally waiting to see Ye Yu make a fool of himself now began to doubt their own judgment.
Could it be that this guy really has some hidden cards?
Ye Yu ignored everyone’s gazes and turned to leave the room.
He is going to prepare to challenge the lava giant lizard and seize the fire of the earth’s core!
After leaving the guild, Ye Yu rushed to the lava monitor lizard’s habitat without stopping.
Along the way, he kept recalling the information and coping strategies about the lava giant lizard in his reincarnation memory, and repeatedly practiced the techniques of absorbing the earth’s core fire.
“Lava monitor, here I come!” Ye Yu stood on the edge of the crater, feeling the heat wave coming towards him, with a confident smile on his face.
“Roar ” A deafening roar came from deep within the crater…
Ye Yu leaped into the crater, the flames of the void burning around him, forming an indestructible shield that resisted the high temperature and erosion of magma around him.
The huge body of the lava monitor slowly rises from the magma. Its mountain-like size exudes a suffocating sense of oppression.
Its scarlet eyes stared at Ye Yu, as if it wanted to eat him alive.
“Come on, little lizard!” Ye Yu was not afraid at all. The flame of the void turned into a fire dragon, roaring and rushing towards the lava lizard.
A shocking battle began.
Relying on the fighting skills from his reincarnation memories, Ye Yu flexibly dodged the attacks of the lava lizard and continuously consumed its physical strength with the void flame.
Although the lava lizard was huge in size and had amazing strength, it gradually fell into a disadvantage in the face of Ye Yu’s agile body and powerful void flame.
In the end, Ye Yu seized the opportunity, condensed the flames of the void into a sharp fire blade, pierced through the defense of the lava lizard, and absorbed all the core fire in its body.
The Void Flame, which absorbed the fire from the earth’s core, suddenly increased in power, emitting an even more terrifying aura.
Ye Yu was bathed in golden flames, like a god of war, majestic and awe-inspiring.
At the last moment when the limited time was about to end, Ye Yu returned to the guild with the Earth’s Core Fire.
When he presented the Earth’s Core Fire in front of the guild’s leaders, everyone was shocked by the dazzling light.
“It worked!” Ye Yu was secretly delighted, but on the surface he remained calm and said calmly, “I’m glad I have fulfilled my mission.”
The guild leaders were very satisfied with Ye Yu’s performance. They announced that they would give Ye Yu a special reward and spread his deeds throughout the Fairy Tail.
Ye Yu instantly became the focus of the guild, and his prestige reached an unprecedented height.
Inside the guild hall, Ye Yu stood in the center, accepting everyone’s cheers and congratulations.
He became a role model for young wizards in Fairy Tail, and countless people regarded him as an idol, and their admiration for him was beyond words.
Ye Yu’s heart was filled with pride and joy. He knew that his future was full of infinite possibilities. He would continue to move forward with this glory and strength, moving towards greater goals.
However, at this glorious moment, Ye Yu suddenly felt an inexplicable chill…
“This breath is…” Ye Yu suddenly raised his head, his eyes fixed on an inconspicuous corner outside the guild gate.
Chapter 25: Breaking the Deadlock with Flames (Old Version)
Ye Yu stood at the edge of the arena. Although he was surrounded by the afterglow of the previous victory, his heart was shrouded in a faint haze.
He knew that the real tough battle was just about to begin.
Glancing across, Felide was walking slowly towards the center of the venue with a sinister smile on his face.
That smile was like a venomous snake about to hunt, and Ye Yu was muttering in his heart: “This guy, it’s obvious that he is not a good person!”
The noise from the surrounding audience came like a tide, and all kinds of discussions came into Ye Yu’s ears, making him feel like a group of flies buzzing in his ears, and a feeling of irritation arose spontaneously.
He took a deep breath, forced himself to concentrate, put all distracting thoughts behind him, and prepared to face the next challenge like a precision instrument.
“The game begins!” Following the judge’s order, Philid immediately launched an attack.
He just waved his hands, and words solidified in the air, transforming into invisible traps that silently filled the entire venue.
“Are you playing words? Let me show you how I can break your little trick!” Ye Yu sneered and was about to take action when he suddenly felt his feet go empty.
“Fuck!” Ye Yu couldn’t help but swear. His body lost balance instantly and one of his legs accidentally stepped into the trap set by Philid in advance. A sharp pain came instantly.
“There’s something about this trap!” He gritted his teeth, frowning, and had to admit that Felide’s text magic was indeed a bit tricky, and his movements became a little slow.
Felide’s attack came like a tide. He kept waving his hands, and the words seemed to come alive, turning into swords, ropes, chains and other attacks, smashing towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu could only rely on his amazing reaction speed to barely dodge. It felt like he was playing dodgeball, and it was an enhanced version.
“No, we’re definitely going to be dead if this goes on!” Ye Yu was anxious. He felt like a mosquito trapped in a spider web, being suppressed by Philid and unable to resist at all.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Am I really going to have a car accident here today?” He began to doubt himself.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his brain, and a fragment of dusty memory suddenly flooded into his mind like sunlight breaking through the clouds…
“Wait, this feeling…”
A bright light flashed through Ye Yu’s mind, like an epiphany, and a long-forgotten memory fragment was activated.
It was in a certain reincarnation that he had seen a technique of using the rhythm of the body to avoid attacks. The feeling was extremely mysterious, like dancing on the water.
He tried to recall the details of what happened, his body trembled slightly, and he miraculously avoided a fatal attack from Felide.
“Wow!” There was a burst of exclamations from the surrounding audience. They originally thought Ye Yu was going to be finished, but they didn’t expect that he could actually escape. This was simply a stroke of genius.
Ye Yu took the opportunity to take a breath, feeling the rhythm of his body. His eyes became more determined and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He knew it was time to fight back!
“Hmph, a mere trifle!” Philid snorted coldly, as if he didn’t care about Ye Yu’s avoidance. He waved his arms again, and countless words rushed towards Ye Yu like a storm.
This time, Ye Yu no longer dodged. He took a deep breath, and his hands suddenly ignited with blazing flames of the void.
The flames jumped and tumbled in his hands like living things, emitting a heart-pounding scorching breath.
“Fuck, this flame is something!” Someone in the audience couldn’t help but exclaimed.
Ye Yu covered his hands with flames, like two burning fists, and rushed directly towards Philid.
Those originally indestructible text magics melted instantly when they came into contact with the flames of the void, just like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun, and were completely swallowed up by the flames.
Felide’s face turned pale in an instant. He looked at Ye Yu in horror, his eyes full of disbelief: “This…how is this possible?”
“The counterattack has begun!” Ye Yu’s mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sneer. He was like a tiger coming down the mountain, his speed getting faster and faster, and his momentum getting stronger and stronger.
His counterattack made the cheers from the audience louder and louder. Everyone thought Ye Yu was bound to lose, but unexpectedly he fought back and turned the situation around in one fell swoop. It was simply the plot of a passionate anime!
Punch after punch, Ye Yu’s fist roared out like a fire dragon. Philide could only retreat continuously, losing step by step, with no power to fight back at all.
Philid, who was originally so arrogant, now looked like a monkey being teased, in a miserable state.
“This…this is impossible!” Felide’s eyes were filled with fear and his voice trembled a little.
Ye Yu did not give him a chance to breathe. He concentrated all his magic power into his fists. The flames became more and more intense, as if to devour everything.
He suddenly stopped, took a deep breath, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the void flame spun wildly in his hands, gradually forming a small tornado.
“Let me show you my new move – Fire Tornado!” He growled, and the fire tornado in his hand suddenly expanded, turning into a roaring fire dragon, sweeping towards Philid with a destructive breath.
“Text shield!” Philid’s face changed drastically, and he hurriedly built layers of text shields in front of him.
However, this seemingly indestructible defense was like paper in front of the fire tornado, and was instantly torn apart and burned to ashes.
With a loud bang, the fire tornado hit Felide hard and swallowed him whole.
The surrounding air instantly became scorching hot, and a heat wave swept through the entire venue. The audience covered their faces with their hands, fearing that they would be affected by the terrifying flames.
Although Felide tried his best to resist, he was still knocked back several steps by the powerful impact, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
“Damn…this kid…” He gritted his teeth.
Ye Yu did not give him any chance to breathe. He took advantage of the victory and pursued him. His figure flashed in front of Philid like a ghost, and he punched out with a blazing flame, hitting him hard in the abdomen.
“Ah!” Philid let out a scream and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string. He fell heavily to the ground and couldn’t get up for a long time.
“Come on! Ye Yu!”
“Knock him down! Ye Yu!”
The audience around was boiling with excitement. They cheered for Ye Yu’s wonderful performance, and the shouts were deafening.
Even the reviewer had to admit Ye Yu’s strength. He solemnly announced: “The winner is Ye Yu!”
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, enjoying the joy of victory.
He knew that this game was just the beginning and the challenges ahead would be even more difficult.
He clenched his fists.
However, he also felt a little uneasy in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
“Next match…” Ye Yu murmured softly, his eyes casting towards the contestant passage, where a figure slowly walked out…
Chapter 26: The Beginning of Ambiguity (Old Version)
The audience’s cheers were deafening, as if they were going to overturn the entire arena.
He clenched his fists, but felt a vague sense of unease in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen.
“Next game…” Ye Yu murmured softly, his eyes looking towards the contestant passage, where a figure slowly walked out.
It was Alba Green, the wizard in Fairy Tail famous for her petrifying eyes. Her eyes were full of hostility, as if challenging Ye Yu’s limits.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He looked up at the audience and saw Liu Xue’s encouraging eyes. She clasped her hands together and cheered him on.
At that moment, he felt a warmth in his heart and was also filled with fighting spirit.
He knew that this game would be more difficult, but with Liu Xue’s support, he must not back down.
“Ye Yu, come on!” Liu Xue’s voice was particularly clear amid the cheers of the audience, as if it penetrated the noise and reached his ears directly.
The bell rang to signal the start of the match, and Alba Green quickly launched an offensive.
Her eyes instantly turned gray and the petrifying eye magic was activated instantly.
Before Ye Yu could react, his left arm was hit by a gray light. He suddenly felt a cold numbness, and his left arm became stiff and unable to move.
“Hehe, try my petrifying eyes!” Alba Green laughed coldly, and then her hands turned into sharp claws and pounced on Ye Yu with the sound of wind.
Ye Yu could only dodge with difficulty using his right arm and legs, which were the only thing he could move. He felt that his movements were becoming more and more difficult, and every step was like walking in the mud.
“Damn it!” Ye Yu was extremely anxious. He knew that he was at a disadvantage and had to find a way to reverse the situation as soon as possible.
He glanced at Liu Xue in the audience; her expression remained firm and encouraging.
At that moment, he seemed to be blessed by some kind of power.
At this moment, Alba Green attacked again, her claws almost touching Ye Yu’s throat.
Ye Yu felt a sharp pain, but he did not flinch. Instead, he clenched his teeth and fixed his eyes.
“Void Flame, burn!” Ye Yu’s heart suddenly erupted with a low roar, and a certain part of his body began to heat up…
Liu Xue’s heartbeat suddenly quickened, and her clenched hands trembled slightly, as if she had a premonition of something.
In her arena, Ye Yu’s body was like a volcano about to erupt, and a hot breath gushed out of his body.
With a “boom”, a ball of black flame suddenly ignited on his left arm, and the originally stiff part instantly regained its vitality.
The flames not only dispelled the coldness of the petrifying magic, but also brought with them a brutal force, as if to burn everything to ashes.
“Oh my god? What the hell is this?!” The audience exploded in an uproar, with exclamations coming one after another.
Even the experienced reviewers stared with wide eyes, looking at what was happening before their eyes in disbelief.
Alba Green was even more confused. The petrified eyes that she was so proud of were actually broken by the other party with a strange flame. This made her feel that her three views were shocked.
The corners of Ye Yu’s mouth rose slightly, outlining a confident arc.
He moved his arms, feeling the power brought by the Void Flame, as if he had the power to control everything.
“Hey, this feels so fucking good!”
Alba Green didn’t give Ye Yu much time to show off, and her attack came again.
The sharp claws made a sharp sound of breaking through the air and went straight to Ye Yu’s vitals.
Ye Yu’s body flashed and he dodged Alba Green’s attack like a ghost.
He took advantage of the opportunity to dodge and quickly approached the audience.
“Be careful!” Liu Xue’s worried voice came.
Ye Yu turned around and landed right in front of Liu Xue.
Liu Xue quickly handed him a handkerchief embroidered with delicate patterns and gestured for him to wipe his sweat.
Ye Yu took the handkerchief and his fingertips accidentally touched Liu Xue’s soft palm.
Their eyes met, and there was a strange atmosphere in the air.
A ripple also appeared in Liu Xue’s Ye Yu’s heart. This ambiguous atmosphere distracted him a little. The fighting spirit that was just boiling with passion seemed to be sucked away by a gentle vortex.
“Focus!” A magnetic voice came into Ye Yu’s ears. It was Alba Green’s voice, mixed with a hint of anger.
Ye Yu came to his senses and found that Alba Green’s claws attacked again, but this time it was faster and more powerful.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, and the fighting spirit rekindled in his eyes.
He knew that the battle before him was not over yet and the real test had just begun.
“Hmph, this time, I’ll teach you a lesson!” Ye Yu whispered, his voice full of confidence and determination.
He clenched his hands, and the flames of the void began to flow slowly around his body.
Alba Green’s claws struck again, faster and more powerful than before.
Ye Yu did not dare to be careless and quickly adjusted his state. The void flame formed a black barrier around his body.
“You think you can beat me with this little ability? You underestimate me!” Ye Yu sneered.
Alba Green’s petrifying eye magic was activated again, and gray rays of light shot towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu did not dodge or evade, allowing the light to hit him.
However, to Alba Green’s surprise, the rays did not petrify Ye Yu. Instead, they were swallowed by the black flames and transformed into Ye Yu’s power.
“Wow! Can we play like this?” The audience exploded again, with exclamations coming one after another.
Alba Green’s petrifying eye magic actually became a tool to provide energy to Ye Yu. This is simply ridiculous!
“It’s my turn!” Ye Yu growled, and his figure flashed and instantly appeared in front of Alba Green.
He swung his fist burning with black flames and smashed it towards Alba Green like a storm.
Alba Green was caught off guard and retreated repeatedly in a miserable state.
“Ahhh! It hurts so much!” Alba Green’s screams resounded throughout the arena, causing the audience to burst into laughter.
Ye Yu seized the opportunity and cast a powerful magic – “Void Flame Explosion”.
The black flames condensed into a huge fireball, carrying a destructive aura, and headed straight for Alba Green.
With a loud “bang”, the fireball hit Alba Green, blew her away, and she fell heavily to the ground, losing her ability to fight.
“KO!” The referee announced that Ye Yu won, and thunderous applause and cheers broke out from the audience.
“Ye Yu! Ye Yu! Ye Yu!” The audience shouted Ye Yu’s name as if he was their hero.
Ye Yu walked up to Liu Xue and returned the handkerchief to her.
“Thank you.” Ye Yu said softly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Liu Xue took the handkerchief, her cheeks slightly red, and a sweet smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“Congratulations, you’re amazing.”
The two smiled at each other, and the air around them was filled with a hint of ambiguity.
However, Ye Yu did not indulge in this ambiguity.
He knew that the final would be even tougher and he had to be fully prepared.
Ye Yu arrived at the finals with anticipation and anxiety, and pushed open the door… “It’s you?!”
Chapter 27: The Flame God Arrives (Old Version)
Ye Yu pushed open the door of the finals arena, and the first thing that came into his sight was a tall and burly figure – Gajeel!
With muscles of steel and a rebellious look in his eyes, he exudes a strong fighting spirit from head to toe.
“It’s you?!” Ye Yu’s eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, “It seems this finals will be difficult…”
Gajeel grinned, revealing his sharp teeth, his eyes flashing with excitement: “Hey, kid, I didn’t expect that we would meet again so soon! You got lucky last time, but I won’t show mercy this time!” The audience around him also became excited, talking about this much-anticipated duel.
“Who is this kid? How could he make it to the finals?”
“I heard that he defeated Alba Green before. His strength should not be underestimated!”
“Gajeel is an iron dragon! This guy is probably going to be beaten to a pulp!”
The judges also sat upright, their eyes fixed on the two people on the field, looking forward to this ultimate showdown.
The air was filled with tension, like a taut string that could break at any moment.
“The game begins!” With the referee’s order, Gajeel launched an attack instantly, turning into a black lightning and rushing straight towards Ye Yu.
“Roar of the Iron Dragon!”
A powerful force hit Ye Yu’s body, and he felt that his internal organs were about to be shattered.
Ye Yu dodged quickly, but Gajeel was too fast and he was still hit. He was injured in many places and blood seeped through his clothes.
“Hiss… This guy’s strength is stronger than I thought!” Ye Yu gritted his teeth and said in his heart.
Gajeel’s attack came like a storm, Ye Yu’s physical strength was quickly consumed, and he felt a little overwhelmed.
He kept dodging and blocking, but could never find a chance to counterattack.
“Hahaha! Boy, is this all you can do? It seems you’re just so-so!” Gajeel laughed arrogantly, and his attack became more fierce.
Ye Yu’s breathing became more and more rapid, and sweat soaked his clothes.
He knew it was a tough battle and he would lose if he wasn’t careful.
He took a deep breath.
Ye Yu’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Oh, the game is over.” He whispered.
He put his hands together, muttered something, and a mysterious and powerful energy wave burst out from his body.
In the memory of reincarnation, the long-forgotten forbidden magic – “The Coming of the Flame God” is finally unleashed!
The flames of the void surged wildly, completely enveloping Ye Yu’s body, like a fire god reborn from the fire!
The blazing flames illuminated the entire arena. The scorching heat distorted the surrounding air, and a suffocating pressure spread.
“What the hell! What kind of magic is this?!”
“This kid…hid so deeply?!”
The audience was in an uproar, and everyone was stunned by Ye Yu’s sudden change.
Even the reviewers couldn’t help but stand up, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
Gajeel also felt the terrifying aura emanating from Ye Yu. A strong sense of unease rose in his heart, and his original arrogance disappeared without a trace in an instant.
“This…how is this possible?!” He widened his eyes in disbelief.
Ye Yu slowly opened his eyes, with flames burning in his eyes, as if he could see through everything.
“Now, it’s my turn!”
Before he finished speaking, Ye Yu’s figure disappeared in an instant, and when he appeared again, he was already in front of Gajeel.
He swung his fist, which was burning with void flames, and smashed it hard at Gajeel.
With a loud bang, Gajeel flew backwards like a cannonball and fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Ahem…” Gajeel struggled to get up, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, “What…what kind of power is this?!”
Ye Yu ignored Gajeel’s questions and launched an attack again. Each attack was carried with the power to burn the sky and destroy the earth.
Gajeel tried his best to resist, but was still beaten back by Ye Yu and his body was covered with wounds.
“Too strong! This guy is simply a monster!”
“Gajeel is going to lose!”
The audience was boiling with cheers and shouts.
Ye Yu’s figure flashed on the field like a ghost. Gajeel was completely unable to catch his trajectory and could only passively take the beating.
“it’s over!”
Ye Yu shouted softly, raising his right hand, which was burning with void flames…
Ye Yu’s raised right hand suddenly fell down, and the flame of the void turned into a roaring fire dragon, carrying the power to destroy everything, swooping towards Gajeel!
This move combines all of Ye Yu’s magic and is his ultimate secret – “Flame God World-Destroying Dragon Flame”!
There was a deafening roar, and the entire stadium shook violently.
The fire dragon engulfed Gajeel’s figure, and the terrifying explosion created a gust of air that swept across the entire arena.
People in the audience covered their ears and watched the scene in horror.
When the smoke cleared, a huge deep pit appeared on the field. Gajeel was lying at the bottom of the pit, his body charred and motionless.
He tried hard to stand up, but found that his body was numb and he had no strength at all.
“Holy crap! Seconds?!”
“This is too strong! It’s like a humanoid Gundam!”
“Ye Yu is awesome!”
The audience was in an uproar, filled with cheers, shouts, and whistles.
The reviewers also stared at the scene in amazement, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses.
“The winner is Ye Yu!”
The judge’s voice trembled as he announced the result of the competition.
The audience’s cheers reached a peak, and Ye Yu’s name resounded throughout the stadium.
He stood in the center of the arena, basking in the gazes of the crowd and feeling the joy of victory.
He became the champion of the Magic Tournament, became the glory of Fairy Tail, and his prestige reached its peak.
However, there was no trace of pride on Ye Yu’s face.
He knew this was just the beginning.
The road ahead is still long, and even greater challenges await him.
He clenched his fists, his heart full of anticipation for the future.
“A new chapter is about to begin…” He murmured softly, his eyes looking into the distance.
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “Hey, someone is coming…”
Chapter 28: Battle with Felide (Old Version)
The cheers came like a tide, deafening.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, bathed in the light of glory, with a faint smile on his lips.
The championship trophy felt a little cool to the touch, but the feeling of victory was as hot as fire, surging in his chest.
However, Ye Yu’s heart was calm.
“The next match is between Ye Yu and Philid!” The commentator’s loud voice was like thunder, exploding above the arena.
Ye Yu’s eyes flashed, Philid, the guy who plays magic with words!
This is not an easy opponent to deal with.
The audience around also began to talk, and the air was filled with tension, as if it was a taut string that could break at any time.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, clenched his fists secretly, his eyes burning with fighting spirit, and silently said in his heart: “Come on, let me see how much weight you have!”
Following the reviewer’s order, Philid immediately cast his magic. Obscure words danced like fireflies, quickly interweaving into a huge maze, trapping Ye Yu inside.
The walls of the maze were as hard as steel. Ye Yu tried to punch them, but it only left shallow marks and caused tingling pain in his knuckles.
“This kid is quite interesting.” Ye Yu whispered to himself.
The interior of the maze is intricate and the passages are winding, like a huge spider web, trapping Ye Yu tightly inside.
He bumped into walls everywhere and had several scratches on his body. The burning pain continued to irritate his nerves.
Time passed by minute by minute, Ye Yu’s physical strength was constantly consumed, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his forehead.
In the audience, everyone was worried about him and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
“This guy, he’s not really trapped, is he?”
“I don’t think it’s going to work. Felide’s word magic is notoriously difficult to deal with!”
“Ye Yu, come on!”
The discussions around him reached Ye Yu’s ears, but he turned a deaf ear to them and concentrated on finding a exit.
However, this maze seemed to have life, constantly changing its shape, making it impossible for him to find the right direction.
Anxiety began to spread and Ye Yu’s breathing became rapid.
Suddenly, he stopped…
The corners of his mouth curled up in an intriguing arc.
“Oh, this won’t do…”
Ye Yu suddenly stopped and an intriguing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Oh, this won’t do…” He whispered to himself, with a determined glint in his eyes.
Just when Philid thought Ye Yu had been trapped in the maze and victory was about to be achieved, Ye Yu made a move that was beyond everyone’s expectations.
He took a deep breath, flipped his palm, and the flames of the void instantly burned in his palm, and the raging flames roared like an angry beast.
Ye Yu slapped the wall of the maze without hesitation.
“Boom!” The flames hit the wall, making a deafening noise. The words on the wall instantly turned charred and then collapsed into pieces.
The structure of the maze began to collapse, and Ye Yu finally saw the light of day again. He rushed out of the ruins with a grim face and eyes as sharp as knives.
There was a burst of exclamations in the audience, and some people even stood up, staring at the scene in amazement.
Philid’s face became solemn. He didn’t expect that Ye Yu could solve the maze he carefully designed so easily.
“You are indeed not simple!” Philid said gritting his teeth, and immediately an order came, and countless words flew towards Ye Yu like sharp arrows, and each word contained powerful magical power.
Ye Yu snorted coldly, his figure flashed, and he nimbly moved between the words, avoiding every attack as if dancing.
At the same time, he released the Flame of the Void. The flame was like a greedy beast, devouring the surrounding magical energy and transforming it into its own power.
He felt the strength in his body rising continuously, and the boiling blood made him more confident.
“Come on, I’m not afraid of any number of attacks!” Ye Yu shouted, gathering the flames of the void into a blazing arrow and shooting it towards Philid’s heart.
Felide was horrified and dodged quickly. Although he avoided the fatal blow, the flame at the arrow tail still burned his arm, and the pain made him take a few steps back.
In the audience, cheers rang out one after another, and people applauded Ye Yu’s wonderful counterattack.
Felide’s face turned ashen, and his eyes flashed with resentment and anger.
Ye Yu stood firmly in place, with a smile on his face.
“This is just the beginning. The real trick will be used now…” Ye Yu whispered to himself, clenching his fists. The void flame in his body and the special magic in his reincarnation memory began to blend, and a powerful force was gathering in his body.
Ye Yu’s eyes were burning with fighting spirit, the void flame in his body surged and began to merge with the special magic that had been sealed for a long time in his reincarnation memory – “Flame Dragon’s Roar”!
The two forces intertwined with each other, and eventually erupted with a devastating energy.
He pushed his palms forward, and a lifelike fire dragon roared out, rushing straight towards Philid with the power to burn everything!
“Text shield!” Felide’s face changed drastically, and he hurriedly mobilized all his magic power. Countless words intertwined into a huge shield in front of him.
The fire dragon crashed into the shield, making a deafening roar that shook the entire arena!
Although the shield withstood the frontal impact of the fire dragon, it also had dense cracks on it, as if it would break at any time.
“Is this all you can do? You underestimate me too much!” Ye Yu showed a trace of disdain on his face, and took advantage of the victory to launch another attack.
The flames of the void transformed into countless fireballs, pouring down like a meteor shower. Felide was exhausted and caught in a dilemma. His originally steady steps began to become disordered.
“Damn it! How come this guy’s strength suddenly increased so much?” Philid cursed in his heart. He felt that Ye Yu’s strength was far beyond before, as if he had been cheated, leaving him powerless to resist.
“Let’s end it!” Ye Yu seized the flaw revealed by Philid, condensed all the remaining void flames on his right fist, and punched out with a heavy punch!
Philid was unable to dodge and was hit hard. He flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and vomited blood.
“The winner is Ye Yu!” the judges announced loudly, and thunderous cheers broke out in the audience, and people applauded Ye Yu’s wonderful performance.
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, enjoying the joy of victory again, and he took another step towards the next round of competition.
However, his eyes did not relax at all, but became more solemn.
He knew that the next opponents would only become stronger and stronger, and he had to stay vigilant at all times in order to survive in this cruel magical world.
He slowly clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his body, and a confident smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
“Who will be next?”
Chapter 29: Hope of Advancement (Old Version)
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, the cheers of the previous victory still echoing in his ears.
He took a deep breath, calming the surging magic in his body, his eyes filled with anticipation and a hint of imperceptible vigilance.
When he saw his opponent slowly walking into the field, his pupils suddenly shrank and his heart skipped a beat.
Alba Green!
The woman who had strong hostility towards him actually became his next opponent!
Ye Yu frowned slightly, thinking to himself, “What a narrow road for enemies to cross!”
Alba Green’s lake-green eyes, like poisoned daggers, stared at Ye Yu closely, filled with undisguised disgust and anger.
In the audience, discussions rose and fell like a swarm of buzzing bees.
“Alba Green? She’s a very powerful wizard in Fairy Tail!”
“That new guy might have to stop here.”
“Yes, Alba Green’s petrifying eye magic is notoriously difficult to deal with.”
Listening to the discussions around him, Ye Yu’s heart became even heavier, but he knew that now was not the time to panic. He had to calm down and find a way to deal with Alba Green.
He took a deep breath, forced himself to clear his mind, and his eyes became sharp again.
Following the order from the reviewer, Alba Green cast her petrifying eye magic without hesitation. Her green eyes instantly flashed with a strange light, like two green gems, with a fatal attraction.
Ye Yu had been on guard for a long time. He didn’t dare look directly into Alba Green’s eyes and could only rely on his feeling to dodge. His body moved quickly in the arena like a gust of wind.
However, the range of the petrifying eye was extremely wide, and Ye Yu was accidentally caught by the peripheral vision. He felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and then his left leg became stiff and his movements became obviously much slower.
“Hit by the Petrifying Eye?!” Ye Yu’s heart trembled, thinking that this was not good.
Alba Green curled up a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and the magic power surged in her hands. Then, several green beams of light shot out from her fingertips like poisonous snakes and rushed straight towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu was unable to move at the moment and could only dodge with difficulty. He felt the sharp sound of the magic beam cutting through the air, and the severe pain of the aftermath sweeping across his body. He was extremely anxious and felt that he was in trouble. This feeling of powerlessness made him a little panicked.
“Damn it, this can’t go on!” He gritted his teeth and tried hard to find a way out of the predicament.
At this moment, he felt a flash of inspiration in his mind, as if he remembered something.
He stopped his meaningless dodging, his eyes flickering with an inexplicable light, and he muttered to himself, “Right, this is it…”
Ye Yu stopped suddenly, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
In the reincarnation memory, a hint of a method to break the petrification magic flashed through his mind – using powerful magic power to impact the petrified part can break the magic’s shackles!
He did it right away. He mobilized the dormant void flame in his dantian. The black flames quickly wrapped around his stiff left leg like nimble fire snakes.
There was a burning sensation, accompanied by crackling sounds, as if something was breaking.
The next second, his left leg regained consciousness and Ye Yu felt his body was full of strength again!
“Fuck! How did this guy do that?”
“The petrification magic has been lifted?!”
The audience erupted in exclamations, as if a pot of boiling water had exploded.
Alba Green was also shocked. She couldn’t believe that her petrifying eyes had failed.
The corners of Ye Yu’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.
He no longer dodges, but takes the initiative to attack!
“It’s rude not to reciprocate. Now you’ve tasted my power!” He growled, and the flames of the void instantly enveloped his entire body. He turned into a burning black meteor, rushing towards Alba Green at lightning speed!
“What?!” Alba Green was horrified. She hurriedly mobilized her magic power for defense, and green magic barriers quickly formed in front of her.
However, the flames of the void were like a greedy glutton, constantly devouring her magical energy, and the barriers were broken layer by layer, making a teeth-grinding “crackling” sound.
“This flame… can actually devour magic?!” Alba Green was horrified.
Before she could react, Ye Yu was already close to her. His fist was wrapped in the blazing flames of the void, and with a sound of breaking through the air, he smashed it hard at Alba Green.
Ye Yu’s attack poured down like a storm, and Alba Green was beaten back step by step and was in a miserable state.
The audience around were so excited that they cheered for Ye Yu.
“Good job! Beat her!”
“This kid is so fierce!”
“Awesome! This is a real man!”
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Ye Yu’s momentum grew stronger and stronger.
“Next, let me show you my true strength…” Ye Yu said softly with a mysterious smile on his face.
“Void Flame Explosion!” Ye Yu shouted loudly, and the spinning black fireball in his hand suddenly expanded, and then shot towards Alba Green like an arrow.
Wherever the fireball passed, the air seemed to be burned out, leaving a black trail.
Alba Green’s face was pale. She felt an unprecedented sense of crisis and wanted to escape but it was too late.
boom!
There was a deafening explosion, and the entire arena shook violently as if there had been an earthquake.
At the center of the explosion, black flames rolled like huge waves, completely engulfing Alba Green.
“Holy crap! This move is too powerful!”
“It’s like a nuclear explosion scene!”
“This kid is really a hidden talent!”
In the audience, everyone stared at the scene in amazement and exclaimed in surprise.
When the flames died down, Alba Green’s figure appeared in front of everyone. She was in tattered clothes and her body was charred. She fell to the ground in a mess, struggling to stand up but was unable to do so.
“The winner is decided!” the reviewer announced loudly.
Ye Yu slowly walked up to Alba Green and looked down at her condescendingly, without a trace of pity in his eyes.
“You lose.”
Alba Green gritted her teeth,
Ye Yu turned and walked to the center of the arena to accept the cheers and congratulations from the crowd.
He knew that he was one step closer to final victory.
“Congratulations, you have successfully advanced!” The reviewer walked up to Ye Yu and handed him a badge symbolizing promotion.
Ye Yu took the badge, his heart filled with pride.
He knew he couldn’t relax, as there were tougher games waiting for him.
What kind of challenge will be waiting for him in the final?
Ye Yu took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with determination.
He turned and left the arena, walking towards the passage leading to the finals, his steps firm and powerful.
“Finals…” He muttered to himself, pushing open the door to the finals venue, and he saw…
Chapter 30: Decisive Battle with Iron Dragon (Old Version)
When the door of the finals venue was pushed open, the deafening cheers almost knocked Ye Yu over.
The auditorium was packed with people and the atmosphere was as warm as a pot of boiling water.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and tried to keep calm in this noisy environment.
The opponent in the finals stands at the other end of the arena the Iron Dragon Gajeel!
Gajeel’s body was wrapped in iron-like muscles, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, staring at Ye Yu as if he wanted to eat him alive.
Ye Yu looked back without showing any weakness, with a confident arc on the corner of his mouth.
“Come on, let me see how strong you are!” he thought to himself.
“The game begins!” The judge’s loud voice resounded throughout the arena.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gajeel moved.
His arms turned into steel claws and he rushed towards Ye Yu with a roar at an astonishing speed.
“Roar of the Iron Dragon!” Gajeel roared, and a torrent of steel wrapped in violent magic power rushed towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu did not dare to delay and quickly released the Void Flame to try to resist the fierce attack.
However, Gajeel’s attack was more powerful than he imagined.
With a loud bang, Ye Yu was shocked by the huge impact force and retreated repeatedly, and his feet plowed two deep grooves on the ground.
“Cough cough…” Ye Yu covered his chest. The severe pain made him cough uncontrollably.
The old injuries from the previous battle were also affected, making him feel weak all over.
Gajeel would not miss this opportunity. He turned into a steel whirlwind again and pounced towards Ye Yu.
“Iron Dragon’s Sword!”
The sharp steel claws swung like the Grim Reaper’s scythe. Ye Yu barely avoided the fatal blow, but a deep wound was still left on his arm, and blood instantly dyed his sleeves red.
There was a cry of surprise from the audience, and many people were worried about Ye Yu.
“This kid is doomed…” someone whispered.
Ye Yu’s physical strength declined rapidly and his movements became slow.
He felt like a prey trapped in a spider web, and could only watch the prey approach step by step.
Gajeel’s attacks became more and more fierce, and Ye Yu had almost no chance to breathe.
“Am I… going to lose?” A trace of despair flashed through Ye Yu’s heart.
At this critical moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to Ye Yu’s mind.
“Wait, I seem to…” he muttered to himself.
In Ye Yu’s mind, countless reincarnation scenes flashed like a movie, and those dusty memories came flooding back like a tide.
He remembered that in a certain reincarnation, he had cultivated the Void Flame to the extreme and mastered a forbidden ultimate magic – “Void Devouring Flame”!
In an instant, Ye Yu’s body seemed to turn into a huge furnace, and the flames of the void gushed out from his body, instantly enveloping him completely.
The flames were a strange black color, as if they could swallow up all light.
The moment Gajeel’s steel claws touched the flames, they were completely swallowed up, and the energy of the attack was absorbed by the void flames like a whale.
“What the hell is this?!” Gajeel exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.
The audience was in an uproar, with exclamations and screams coming one after another.
“Did I see that right? What just happened?” “This guy must be cheating!” “This flame is so cool, it’s simply a miracle!”
Ye Yu bathed in the black flames, feeling the powerful force surging in his body. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, outlining an evil smile.
He stretched out his right hand, and the flames of the void condensed into a ball of beating black flames in his palm, like a black heart from hell.
“Now, it’s my turn!” he said softly, his tone full of confidence and dominance.
With a tap of his toes, Ye Yu’s figure turned into a black lightning and instantly appeared in front of Gajeel.
He didn’t give Gajeel any chance to react. He punched out and black flames erupted instantly, like a roaring black dragon, hitting Gajeel’s chest hard.
“Puff!” Gajeel spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, hitting the edge of the arena heavily.
Before he could get up, Ye Yu appeared in front of him like a ghost, another punch, another black flame!
Gajeel was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back and could only barely raise his arms to resist.
He desperately released his magic power and tried to fight back, but all his attacks seemed pale and powerless in front of Ye Yu’s Void Flame, and were even absorbed and transformed into Ye Yu’s power.
Ye Yu’s attacks became faster and more violent, pouring down like a torrential rain.
“This kid’s strength… is so strong!” The reviewer was dumbfounded and forgot to take notes with the quill in his hand.
“So cool, Ye Yu!” “Crushing, this is simply crushing!” The audience cheered wildly, applauding Ye Yu’s wonderful performance.
Ye Yu stepped on Gajeel’s chest and looked down at him. Black flames jumped around him, as if the god of death had arrived.
Gajeel
“The game is over.” Ye Yu slowly raised his right hand, and a more powerful black flame condensed in his palm again, and the air around him became distorted.
“You…you, what on earth are you going to do?” Gajeel said with difficulty.
“I’ll send you on your way!” Ye Yu showed a sneer, and the black flame in his palm suddenly expanded and turned into a huge black pillar of fire, rushing straight into the sky!
This is Ye Yu s most powerful fusion magic – “Void Purgatory”!
The flames of the void madly devoured the surrounding magical elements, integrating all the magic mastered by Ye Yu into one, and erupting with devastating power.
The black pillar of fire, with a terrifying pressure, fell heavily towards Gajeel like a judgment from hell!
Gajeel’s pupils suddenly shrank. Facing this devastating blow, he was completely unable to resist.
He could only watch as the black pillar of fire engulfed him and let out a desperate roar.
There was a deafening roar, and the entire arena trembled.
The black flames dissipated, leaving behind a huge charred pit. Gajeel’s figure had long disappeared, leaving only some broken steel fragments.
The whole place was silent, and everyone was so shocked by the terrifying power that they were speechless.
It was a long time before someone reacted and burst into deafening cheers.
“Win! Ye Yu wins!”
“Too strong! He’s simply a god!”
“Ye Yu! Ye Yu! Ye Yu!”
The judge announced tremblingly: “The champion of this magic competition is – Ye Yu!”
Ye Yu stood in the center of the arena, basking in the cheers of the crowd.
He felt the surging magic power in his body, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
He knew that at this moment, he had become the glory of Fairy Tail and his name would be remembered forever!
However, Ye Yu was not carried away by victory.
He has a more important task – to find the magic crystal.
“Magic crystal…” Ye Yu murmured softly, a gleam in his eyes, “A new adventure is about to begin!”
He turned and left the arena, heading towards the guild’s door.
There, a mysterious figure was waiting for him…
Let s go, the man said, to the Enchanted Forest.
Chapter 31: Journey to the Magic Crystal (Old Version)
Ye Yu stepped into the magical forest, and the humid air carrying the scent of soil and rotten leaves filled his nostrils.
The towering ancient trees blocked out the sun, and only mottled spots of light filtered through the branches and leaves, forming swaying spots of light on the ground.
“Magic crystal, oh magic crystal, where are you hiding?” Ye Yu whispered to himself. The memory of reincarnation told him that deep in this forest there was a magic crystal containing powerful magical energy, but this forest was also full of dangers.
Not far away, a low roar broke the silence of the forest.
The bushes rustled, and pairs of green eyes flickered in the shadows.
“No way, the monsters are going to start attacking so soon?” Ye Yu complained. A group of magic wolves rushed out from all directions, showing their sharp fangs, and surrounded him.
“Awooo–” The leading demon wolf let out a long howl, and the rest of the demon wolves pounced on Ye Yu like arrows.
Ye Yu quickly chanted a spell, “Roar of the Fire Dragon!” A fire dragon spewed out of his mouth, blasting away the few demon wolves rushing in the front.
However, the number of magic wolves was too large, and they came like a tide. The roar of the fire dragon could only repel them temporarily.
Surrounded by the magic wolves, Ye Yu felt as if the surrounding trees were pressing towards him, the air became thinner, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.
He waved the magic wand in his hand, and tongues of fire shot out, igniting the approaching demon wolf.
“How does the grilled wolf meat taste? Do you want to add some cumin?” Ye Yu kept talking while fighting, but his heart was getting heavier and heavier. This was not a solution, his magic power would be exhausted sooner or later.
“Looks like I have to use my ultimate move…” Ye Yu took a deep breath,
“Void Flame…” he muttered to himself.
Ye Yu let out a low roar, and a deep purple flame surged out of his body. Unlike ordinary flames, this void flame had a strange sense of distortion, as if it could devour everything.
Flames swirled around him, forming a blazing wall of fire that drove back the charging demonic wolves.
“Awooo–” The demon wolves howled in pain. They looked at the strange purple flame in fear and did not dare to get any closer.
A sizzling sound came from the approaching demon wolf, and its fur was instantly burnt, emitting an unpleasant barbecue smell.
“Wuhu, take off!” Ye Yu seized the opportunity, and the flames of the void turned into sharp arrows, shooting towards the pack of magic wolves like a rainstorm.
The screams of “howl” came one after another, and the group of demon wolves scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing into the depths of the dense jungle with their tails between their legs.
The little squirrel hiding in the tree covered its eyes, looked secretly through its fingers, and couldn’t help but squeak.
A few birds in the woods were chirping, as if discussing this wonderful battle.
Ye Yu dusted himself off, raised his eyebrows proudly, and continued to go deeper into the forest.
He had not gone far when a figure blocked his way.
He was a tall young man, wearing animal skins, holding a huge wooden stick, with tribal totems painted on his face, and eyes as sharp as an eagle.
“Who are you? What are you doing here?” The young man’s tone was cold and hostile.
“My name is Ye Yu. I’m here on behalf of the guild…” Before Ye Yu could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by the young man.
“Stop talking nonsense! I know that you outsiders are here for the magic crystal! How can you touch the sacred object of our magic tribe!” The young man’s name is Mavis, and he is a young warrior of the magic tribe.
Before he finished speaking, the wooden stick in his hand hit Ye Yu with a whistling sound.
Ye Yu quickly dodged and released a roar of a fire dragon at the same time.
With a loud “bang”, the flames collided with the wooden sticks, producing a strong shock wave that shook the surrounding trees.
“I’m not here to steal the magic crystal! I just…” Ye Yu tried to explain, but Mavis didn’t listen at all and her attack became more fierce.
“Stop! Let me explain…” Ye Yu shouted anxiously while dodging Mavis’s attack.
Mavis’s attack speed was extremely fast, and each strike carried great force. Ye Yu could only barely parry it.
Seeing Ye Yu was dodging, Mavis thought he was scared and sneered, “What? Are you scared? It’s not too late to beg for mercy now!”
Ye Yu’s eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, “Haha, the game has just begun…”
Ye Yu’s figure flashed like a ghost, as if he had a cheat, and he avoided Mavis’s fatal blow at an incredible angle.
This “Z-shaped shake dodge” is a secret technique he dug out from his reincarnation memories. Ordinary people can’t learn it at all!
Mavis was stunned. This kid is quite capable!
Before Mavis could react, deep purple void flames erupted instantly, surrounding Mavis like a dancing giant python.
“Oh my god! What kind of will-o’-the-wisp?” Mavis exclaimed. The temperature of the flame made him feel suffocated. The surrounding trees were all illuminated red, as if he was in a furnace.
“Sizzle, sizzle ” The burning sound of the Void Flame echoed in the forest, the leaves curled up and turned black, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.
Mavis felt like the hairs on his body were about to be singed. The power of the flames was far beyond his imagination.
Just when Mavis thought she was going to be roasted into a suckling pig, Ye Yu suddenly retracted the flames, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
“Don’t be nervous, I just want you to calm down.” Ye Yu clapped his hands and said with a relaxed look.
Mavis was gasping in shock. He looked at Ye Yu. This kid’s strength was unfathomable. Who was he?
“I’ve already said that I’m not here to steal the magic crystals.” Ye Yu spread his hands, “I’m willing to negotiate with the Magic Tribe and obtain the magic crystals peacefully.”
Although Mavis still had doubts, Ye Yu’s strength and magnanimity forced him to re-examine this outsider.
He was silent for a moment, and finally put down the stick in his hand.
The tense atmosphere in the forest also eased a lot. The birds began to sing again and the little squirrel poked its head out of the tree hole.
Ye Yu smiled slightly and continued walking towards the depths of the forest.
Little did he know that in the dense bushes, a pair of cold eyes were watching his every move.
Eligore looked at Ye Yu’s receding back, a sinister smile on his face: “Haha, quite interesting. Sera, you go…”
Chapter 32: Fight for the Magic Crystal (Old Version)
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes. The light in the depths of the forest was a little dim, but his perception was extremely sharp.
There was a faint fishy smell in the air, which was the special scent brought by the fluctuation of magic power.
He knew that Eligore’s gang were like a group of hyenas hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
“Oh, it’s really haunting.” Ye Yu curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer. It’s not like he hasn’t seen this kind of small scene before. He will kill these weaklings one by one.
But now, the most important thing is to reach an agreement with the magic tribe. He doesn’t want to get involved in a meaningless battle. After all, the real treasure is still behind, and the magic crystal is his goal.
He gently pushed aside the branches in front of him, his steps steady, like an experienced hunter.
At this moment, a charming figure suddenly blocked his way.
Sera, this woman really showed up.
She was wearing revealing leather armor, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, and her charming smile made the air feel sticky.
“Little brother, don’t be in a hurry to leave.” Sera’s voice was so gentle and charming, as if it carried some special magic that made people want to indulge in it.
Every word she said seemed to have a small hook, plucking Ye Yu’s heartstrings.
Ye Yu only felt that his consciousness was a little fuzzy. The woman in front of him was like a cloud of fog, making him a little confused about the directions.
He bit the tip of his tongue hard, and the stinging sensation made him sober up a little. Fine cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.
“This woman is poisonous!” Ye Yu cursed in his heart, and stepped back slightly, trying to get rid of Sera’s charm magic.
He could feel that the magic power in his body was being disturbed, which was a very dangerous signal.
“It seems that you are quite resistant to my charm.” Sera giggled, her eyes became more charming, like a cunning fox staring at its prey.
“Don’t waste your energy. Not every man can resist my charm.” As she spoke, she slowly approached Ye Yu, her fingertips almost touching his skin.
Ye Yu felt as if the air around him had solidified, his ears were buzzing, and his body was somewhat out of control.
Seeing this, Sera opened her red lips slightly, with a hint of victory in her smile, and said in a voice full of temptation: “Tell me the clue of the magic crystal, and I will love you well.”
“You wish!” Ye Yu gritted his teeth, and the dormant void flame in his body began to surge, like a fire dragon, roaring and running through his meridians.
This burning force instantly dispelled the fog brought by Sera’s charm magic, and Ye Yu’s consciousness returned to clarity.
The smile on Sera’s face froze. She obviously didn’t expect Ye Yu to be able to resist her charm magic. “Interesting…” She licked her lips, and there was a bit more greed in her eyes.
Ye Yu sneered, “A mere trifle!” Taking advantage of the moment when Sera was stunned, he condensed a ball of blazing void flame in his hand and pushed it forward fiercely!
“Boom!” With a loud bang, the flames shot towards Sera like an arrow.
Sera rolled backwards in embarrassment, barely avoiding the fire attack.
The surrounding leaves were curled up by the high temperature of the flames, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.
Ye Yu did not continue to pursue, he knew that Sera was just a small character and the real trouble was yet to come.
He snorted coldly, turned around and continued walking deeper into the forest.
Not long after, Ye Yu met Bob, the elder of the magic tribe.
Bob looked serious and looked at Ye Yu with vigilance.
“Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Ye Yu knew that Bob was hostile to him, but he did not show any impatience. Instead, he said sincerely: “Hello, elder, I am here to seek cooperation.”
“Cooperation? What qualifications do you have to cooperate with us?” Bob snorted coldly, obviously not believing what Ye Yu said.
Ye Yu ignored Bob’s question and continued, “I know your tribe has been looking for the magic crystal, and I happen to know the whereabouts of the magic crystal.”
Bob’s expression changed slightly. He was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “What do you want?”
Ye Yu smiled and said, “I want to help your tribe improve their lives. If I can get the magic crystal, I will share some of my power with you.”
Bob looked at Ye Yu’s sincere eyes and began to waver in his heart.
Ye Yu’s words were like a warm current, slowly flowing into his heart.
The atmosphere around them also became a little warmer because of Ye Yu’s sincerity.
“You…” Bob was about to speak when suddenly a gust of wind came howling…
The wind suddenly blew up, and the trees swayed, as if a giant beast was roaring.
Eligore and his minions rushed out from the woods like a flock of crows, all with fierce looks on their faces, and it was obvious that they were not good people.
“Hey, isn’t this our ‘great hero’?” Eligore said sarcastically, with a hypocritical smile on his face, like a weasel that has become a spirit.
He waved his hand, and his men immediately surrounded Ye Yu. Magical light flashed, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
“Boy, if you know what’s good for you, hand over the clue about the magic crystal. Otherwise, today will be the day you die!” One of the men shouted arrogantly, and the magic wand in his hand began to buzz.
Ye Yu looked around, a disdainful smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. That’s it?
Do you dare to be arrogant in front of him?
He looked at a clown as if he was looking at him. His body shook slightly, the void flame in his body began to stir, and a powerful aura burst out instantly.
“Go!” Eligore gave an order and his men immediately launched an attack.
Magic of various attributes rained down on Ye Yu, frost, fire, thunder and lightning intertwined together, illuminating the entire forest.
Ye Yu was shaken slightly by the impact of this powerful magic, but he quickly stabilized his body. The void flame in his body was like a hungry beast, greedily devouring the surrounding magical energy.
He felt the strength in his body growing rapidly, as if he was playing the game “Snake”, and his experience points were rising rapidly.
“Haha, this little attack is just tickling me.” Ye Yu sneered, and the Void Flame in his hand suddenly erupted, forming a flame barrier that blocked all attacks.
He stomped his right foot on the ground, and a powerful shock wave spread out from him, shaking the surrounding trees.
“Fuck! This kid is some good stuff!” Eligor’s men were caught off guard by the sudden counterattack. They took a few steps back, their faces full of horror.
Ye Yu combined the Void Flame with the special magic in his reincarnation memory to form a brand new skill.
The flame in his hand condensed into a huge fireball, which was wrapped with complex magic patterns and emitted bursts of heart-pounding energy fluctuations.
“Go!” Ye Yu shouted angrily, and the fireball hit Eligor’s men with terrifying power.
Wherever the fireball passed, the ground was burned black and the air seemed to be on fire.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, a fireball exploded in the crowd. Eligor’s men were blown to the ground, and screams rang out one after another.
When Eligor saw that Ye Yu was so powerful, he felt a little fear in his heart. He originally thought that Ye Yu was just an ordinary magician, but he didn’t expect that he possessed such powerful power.
The surrounding magic tribe members were also shocked by Ye Yu’s powerful strength.
Ye Yu stood in place, flames dancing around him, as if a fire god had descended.
He glanced at everyone coldly, and an invisible pressure made everyone feel frightened.
He knew that Eligor and the others would not give up, and the magic tribe was not united, so his journey to find the magic crystal still faced many obstacles.
He turned around and walked towards the depths of the forest, leaving behind a sentence, “The real battle has just begun…”
Chapter 33: Finally Obtaining the Magic Crystal (Old Version)
Ye Yu stood in front of the ancient mine, and a strong wave of magical power hit him in the face, almost knocking him to the ground.
He knew that the magic crystal was inside!
The air was filled with the smell of damp earth, mixed with the unique metallic smell of ore, stimulating his sense of smell.
A faint blue light flickered at the entrance of the cave. It was a barrier protecting the magic, like a giant beast that would choose its prey and lay dormant quietly.
“This thing looks like it’s not easy to deal with…” Ye Yu muttered to himself, rubbing his hands. A ball of beating void flame condensed in his palm, and the scorching temperature dispelled the coldness around him.
Almost at the same time, Eligore’s disgusting voice was heard: “Hey, isn’t this our ‘genius magician’ Ye Yu? What, you want to eat alone?”
Ye Yu turned his head and saw Eligore and his men looking at him with a joking look on their faces.
Not far away, Elder Bob and Mavis also arrived with the warriors of the magic tribe. The atmosphere instantly became tense and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
“Hmph, not everyone can get the magic crystal, how can you?” Sera twisted her waist and walked in front of Ye Yu, her eyes as charming as silk and her breath as sweet as orchid. A sweet fragrance penetrated Ye Yu’s nostrils, trying to disturb his mind.
Ye Yu sneered: “Just me? Then you’d better open your eyes and watch carefully!” Before he finished speaking, his figure flashed, wrapped in raging flames, and rushed straight to the entrance of the mine!
“Bang!” With a loud bang, Ye Yu was bounced back by the protective magic and fell heavily to the ground. His internal organs seemed to be displaced, and a fishy and sweet taste surged into his throat.
“Hahahaha…” Eligore and others suddenly burst into shrill laughter, as if they were watching a clown show.
Ye Yu gritted his teeth and rushed towards the mine again, but was still bounced away.
After trying again and again and failing again and again, his body was already covered with scars and his strength was almost exhausted.
“That’s it? You still want to get the magic crystal with this? Go home and take a shower!” Mavis sneered without any concealment.
Ye Yu’s breathing became more and more rapid, and sweat soaked his clothes, but the fire burning in his eyes became brighter and brighter.
“I… I just don’t believe it…” Ye Yu struggled to stand up. Suddenly, his eyes fixed, “Wait…”
Ye Yu’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and a confident arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“Wait…” He murmured, and a picture flashed through his mind. It was the method to crack this kind of protective magic in the fragments of reincarnation memory!
It turns out that this ancient magic is not indestructible, its weakness lies in frequency!
Ye Yu took a deep breath, quickly formed seals with his hands, and the void flame in his palms began to change. The originally violent flame became soft and stable, rhythmically rhyming like breathing.
He concentrated his mental power, carefully sensing the fluctuation frequency of the guardian magic, and constantly adjusted the output frequency of the Void Flame so that it gradually became consistent with the guardian magic.
This scene stunned everyone present.
The playful look on Eligor’s face froze, Elder Bob stopped stroking his beard, and Mavis widened her eyes, as if she had seen something incredible.
“This…how is this possible?” Sera murmured to herself. The charm magic that she was proud of was like child’s play in front of Ye Yu and could not shake him at all.
With Ye Yu’s control, the flame of the void gradually penetrated into the barrier of the protective magic. The originally dark blue light began to flicker, swaying like a candle in the wind. Fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the protective magic, spreading like a spider web.
“Oh no! He’s going to succeed!” Eligore was the first to react and shouted, “Everyone, come together! Stop him!”
In an instant, Eligor’s men drew their weapons one after another, and the magical light intertwined into a gorgeous light net, sweeping towards Ye Yu.
Elder Bob and Mavis also joined the attack. For a moment, various magical elements collided in the air, explosions sounded one after another, and the open space in front of the mine turned into a small battlefield.
Ye Yu was at the center of the attack, but he was not at all panicked.
While mobilizing the flames of the void to continue breaking the protective magic, he nimbly dodged attacks and occasionally seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, turning the incoming magical attacks into ashes.
“You think you can stop me with just this little ability?” Ye Yu sneered. Those magicians who claimed to be masters were like paper in front of Ye Yu’s flames and broke into pieces at the slightest touch.
“Fuck, this kid is cheating!” One of Eligor’s men screamed as he was whipped away by Ye Yu’s flaming whip and hit the rock wall directly, foaming at the mouth.
“This is impossible, how can he be so strong!” Sera widened her eyes in horror. The charm magic that she was proud of was like a joke in front of Ye Yu and had no effect at all.
Eligore was so angry that his face turned blue. He didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so difficult to deal with. He was like an indestructible cockroach who became more and more courageous as the battle went on.
“Come on, don’t be afraid, he is just bluffing!” He shouted at the top of his lungs, but his men were like frightened birds, shrinking back in fear and not daring to move forward.
“That’s it?” Ye Yu sneered, clasped his hands together suddenly, and the flame of the void instantly expanded, turning into a huge fire tornado, sweeping towards Eligor and others with unparalleled power.
The scorching air wave hit my face, and the air became distorted, as if it was going to burn everything to ashes.
“Ah!” Eligore and others screamed as they were swept into the fire tornado and blown away like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, looking very miserable.
Ye Yu took this opportunity, tiptoed, and rushed towards the entrance of the mine like an arrow. The Void Flame in his hand was inserted into the barrier like a key. With a “click”, the barrier shattered, revealing the path to the magic crystal.
“The magic crystal is mine!” Ye Yu
Eligor and the others came to their senses and saw Ye Yu entering the mine. They immediately became anxious and wanted to rush in to rob him, but they were blocked by the fire barrier that Ye Yu had prepared in advance and could only stare blankly from outside.
“I’m unwilling to give up. This magic crystal must be mine!” Eligor roared and organized an attack again, but what greeted him was Ye Yu walking out of the mine with the magic crystal.
“Haha, you still want to rob?” Ye Yu held the magic crystal in his hand, with a sarcastic smile on his lips, and the flame of the void was beating in his palm. This time, it was no longer a single flame, but a fusion of all the magic mastered by Ye Yu. It was like a miniature universe, containing infinite power.
“Feel my strongest power!” Ye Yu roared, and swung his hands violently. The flame of the void burst out with dazzling light, illuminating the entire mine like the sun. The powerful force instantly swallowed up Eligor and others.
“Boom!” With a loud noise, the entire mine seemed to shake. Eligor and others were directly blown away by the power of the flames, thrown out like kites with broken strings, and fell heavily to the ground, howling in pain.
They were no longer able to resist and could only watch Ye Yu leave with the magic crystal.
Elder Bob and Mavis were also stunned when they saw this scene. They did not expect Ye Yu s strength to be so powerful, far beyond their imagination.
“Ye Yu, you are so amazing!” Mavis said excitedly,
Elder Bob stroked his beard, a pleased smile on his face. “Young man, you really should not be underestimated. Take the magic crystal. I believe you won’t abuse it!”
Ye Yu nodded, put away the magic crystal, turned around and left under the admiring gazes of everyone.
“Next, it’s time to return to the guild…”
Chapter 34: Ambush on the Way Home (Old Version)
After leaving the mine, Ye Yu hummed a little tune happily, as if he had seen the envious eyes of everyone in the guild, and the exclamations of “Boss, you are awesome!” seemed to ring in his ears.
This magic crystal can not only make his status in the guild soar, but can also be used to strengthen the Void Flame. It’s really a good deal!
He walked briskly, completely unaware of the strange atmosphere around him.
The dense woods were silent, without even a breath of wind, and only the clattering sound of his footsteps echoed.
Wait, something seems wrong?
Ye Yu suddenly stopped and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
In the blink of an eye, countless magical attacks came from all directions. The explosion was deafening, and the shock wave made Ye Yu stagger and almost fall flat on his face.
“Damn, are you playing dirty?” Ye Yu cursed inwardly, and the flames of the void instantly ignited, forming a wall of fire, barely resisting this sudden attack.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Eligore’s sinister face appeared in front of Ye Yu. He brought a group of men and surrounded Ye Yu.
“Boy, do you think you can run away? Leave the magic crystal to me and I will spare your life!” Eligore grinned, with greed flashing in his eyes.
Ye Yu was surrounded in the center, holding the magic crystal in his hand, and had difficulty moving.
The attacks from all around came like a violent storm. Although the Void Flame was powerful, it could not withstand the overwhelming force of numbers, and cracks began to appear on Ye Yu’s shield.
Damn, are these guys cockroaches?
How come he can t be killed?
“Boy, surrender!” A charming figure appeared in front of Ye Yu. It was Sera, Eligor’s subordinate.
Her eyes were charming and her voice was so sweet that it made one’s bones melt.
“Hand over the magic crystal obediently, and I’ll consider letting you…”
Ye Yu endured the discomfort. This charm magic was like a tickle to him.
He sneered: “You wish! Just because you are a bunch of misfits, you think you can steal my magic crystal?” He suddenly put the magic crystal into the space ring, put his hands together, the temperature of the void flame suddenly increased, and the air around him began to distort.
“Oh, a dying struggle!” Eligore snorted disdainfully and launched another attack.
At this moment, a voice came from a distance: “Wait!” A figure in a black cloak fell from the sky and landed between Ye Yu and Eligore.
“I want a share of this magic crystal too!” The man who came was the wandering wizard Talos. A devilish smile appeared on his face. “How about we work together…”
Ye Yu’s eyes flashed, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Why is there another one?
Are these guys a group here to attack me?
etc
Ye Yu suddenly noticed that the frequency of Eligore and the others’ attacks seemed to have some regularity…
Ye Yu’s pupils shrank slightly. He was not a fool. Although these guys were shouting loudly, their attacks were not invulnerable.
He calmed down, carefully observed the frequency and angle of the attacks, and soon found a loophole – there seemed to be a brief fire vacuum behind the woods on the right.
“Haha, since you want to play so much, then I’ll play with you!” Ye Yu curled up the corner of his mouth with a sneer. He took a deep breath and madly poured the magic power in his body into the flame of the void.
The flames condensed and compressed in his hands, eventually forming a dazzling huge column of flames.
“Die for me!” He roared, and the column of flames shot out like a cannonball, with the momentum to burn everything, and slammed into the woods on the right.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, wherever the flame column went, the trees turned into ashes in an instant, and the ground was scorched black. The wizards who were originally hiding behind the trees were knocked to the ground by the shock wave and screamed in pain.
A huge hole was torn in the encirclement in an instant.
“Now is the time!” Ye Yu seized the opportunity, his feet moved like the wind, he turned into a ray of fire and quickly rushed towards the gap.
He was extremely fast, like an arrow shot from a bow, and broke out of the encirclement in the blink of an eye.
“Damn it! Don’t let him get away!” Seeing this, Eligore’s face turned pale. He didn’t expect that this young man would be so difficult to deal with.
He clasped his hands together, and a powerful dark magic surged through him, making the air around him become oppressive.
“Shadow Binding!” Eligor shouted angrily, and countless black chains flew out from his hands, wrapping around Ye Yu like a python.
Ye Yu felt a sense of crisis coming from behind, and suddenly turned sideways, avoiding most of the chains.
But one of the chains still scraped his arm, leaving a deep bloody mark.
“Tsk, how insidious!” Ye Yu cursed inwardly. He dodged Eligor’s attack while looking around.
He found that Talos was standing aside with a playful smile on his face, as if waiting to see the show.
“Haha, do you want to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?” Ye Yu’s eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind.
He suddenly dodged to the left, and his body moved strangely around behind a thick tree.
“Boom!” Eligore’s attack followed immediately, and the black chain hit the tree trunk hard, breaking it in half.
However, Ye Yu had already disappeared from the spot.
“Not good!” Eligor’s face changed. He suddenly found that the direction of his attack had deviated and was flying straight towards Taros.
Talos also noticed something was wrong, and he quickly dodged, but was still hit by the black chain and let out a muffled groan.
“You kid, are you looking for death?” Talos glared at Eligore.
“No, no, no, I didn’t mean it…” Eligore hurriedly explained, but Talos obviously didn’t buy it, and the two of them started to wrestle in an instant.
The minions around were dumbfounded. They had originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos, but they didn’t expect that the boss and the new guy would actually fight.
They looked at each other, not knowing who to help.
Ye Yu looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He had seized the opportunity.
He slowly raised his hands, the flames of the void pulsing in his palms, and a faint, dangerous glint could be seen flickering in his eyes…
Ye Yu curled up the corner of his mouth with a sneer, and murmured: “There is a road to heaven but you don’t take it, and there is no door to hell but you break in! Since you want to play so much, then I will let you see what full firepower means!” His hands flew, and the flames of the void jumped and spun in his hands like elves, and finally turned into hot fireballs.
“Fire Explosion!” Ye Yu shouted softly, and fireballs poured down like a meteor shower, hitting the enemies in chaos.
“Boom boom boom!” The explosions rang out one after another, and screams were heard everywhere.
Those magicians who were originally so aggressive were caught off guard and ran away crying for their parents.
Seeing this, Eligore was so angry that his face turned green.
He roared angrily: “Boy, you dare to play tricks on me!” He condensed the dark magic power again, and the black chain shot towards Ye Yu like a poisonous snake.
“Swallow!” Ye Yu uttered the word lightly.
The flames of the void were like a black hole, swallowing up all the dark magic that was attacking. Eligor’s expression changed from anger to horror, and his eyes almost popped out.
This how is this possible?!
Ye Yu sneered, clasped his hands together, and merged the absorbed dark magic with the flame of the void. An even more powerful energy surged in his body.
Try this!
“The Fire Demon’s Roar!” Ye Yu roared, and a red energy wave burst out from his body, like a volcanic eruption, sweeping everything around him.
“Ahhhh!” The screams were continuous. The enemies hit by the energy waves flew out like rag dolls and fell heavily to the ground. Their life or death was unknown.
Eligore and his men were knocked to the ground by the impact and could not even stand steadily. Their ambush plan completely failed.
Looking at Ye Yu’s receding back, Eligore and others never imagined that this seemingly inconspicuous young man actually possessed such terrifying power.
Ye Yu continued to move forward with the magic crystal. Aligor and others would definitely have subsequent conspiracies, so he had to stay vigilant at all times.
Suddenly, a sweet voice sounded in his ears: “Handsome boy, wait for me…”
Chapter 35: Stick to Your Heart (Old Version)
Ye Yu walked quickly through the dense jungle, and the branches of the bushes scraped against the corners of his clothes, making a rustling sound.
He glanced around vigilantly. Eligore and his gang would definitely not let it go after suffering such a huge loss.
The air was filled with the fragrance of earth and grass, but this fragrance seemed to be mixed with a strange sweetness that made him feel a little uncomfortable.
“Handsome boy, wait for me…” The sweet voice sounded again, like sticky syrup, carrying some kind of irresistible magic.
Ye Yu stopped suddenly and saw Sera walking out from behind a giant tree. Her light gauze dress outlined her graceful figure. The air around her seemed to become hot, and the leaves rustled without wind, as if responding to her charming whisper.
Sera twisted her waist and moved closer to Ye Yu step by step. The fragrance on her body became stronger and stronger, pouring into Ye Yu’s nostrils like a tide, making him feel dizzy.
Her fingers gently stroked Ye Yu’s face, soft as if boneless, yet with a hint of burning temperature.
“You must be so lonely in the forest all by yourself,” Sera’s voice was as soft as a feather, yet it held a hint of indescribable temptation. “Why don’t you let me accompany you…”
The warm breath sprayed on Ye Yu’s ears, and his body reacted instinctively. His heartbeat accelerated, and blood flowed wildly in his veins like a galloping wild horse.
Some confusing images began to appear in his mind, and some erotic scenes flashed before his eyes, making it difficult for him to concentrate.
Ye Yu gritted his teeth and tried hard to restrain himself.
He knew that all this was caused by Sera’s enchantment magic.
He took a deep breath and circulated the Void Flame in his body, trying to dispel the hot air.
Seeing Ye Yu’s reaction, Sera was secretly delighted, thinking that victory was in her grasp, and she cast her charm magic even harder.
Her breath was as sweet as orchid, and her voice was so sweet that it was sickening, like poison wrapped in honey, eroding Ye Yu’s will bit by bit.
Ye Yu felt that his consciousness was like a lonely boat falling into the fog, drifting and the scene in front of him became hazy.
It seemed as if the only thing left in the world around him was Sera’s enchanting figure. Her laughter, her breathing, and the fragrance emanating from her body were like a spell, tightly entangling him and making it difficult for him to breathe.
His heart was like a battlefield, where desire and reason clashed fiercely, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed out of his forehead.
“Just obey me…” Sera’s voice echoed in his ears like a devil’s whisper.
Ye Yu’s vision became increasingly blurred, and his body began to involuntarily move closer to Sera.
At this critical moment, the figures of his guild mates suddenly flashed through Ye Yu’s mind. He remembered the mission he was shouldering and his loyalty to the guild.
A powerful willpower surged from the bottom of his heart, and he bit the tip of his tongue fiercely. The severe pain made him wake up instantly.
“How can I, a tall and strong man, be fooled by your little charm!” Ye Yu roared in his heart, forcibly mobilizing the void fire in his body, letting it run wildly in his body.
The purple-black flames were like a galloping dragon, instantly sweeping over the whole body and completely dispelling Sera’s charm magic.
Ye Yu’s eyes became firm again, like two sharp swords, piercing Sera’s heart.
When Sera saw that her magic had failed, she showed an expression of surprise and unwillingness on her face.
She looked at Ye Yu in disbelief, as if she was meeting him for the first time.
Ye Yu sneered, “You are such a jerk, and you dare to show off your skills in front of an expert!”
Sera’s face changed, and just as she was about to speak, she saw a fierce murderous look flash in Ye Yu’s eyes…
Ye Yu sneered, a cold light flashed in his eyes, “You dare to show off your skills in front of an expert!” The flames of the void swirled in his hands, turning into purple-black chains, like a hunting python, sweeping towards Sera with a scorching breath.
Sera’s face changed drastically. She never expected that this seemingly immature boy could possess such powerful strength.
She dodged in a hurry, and her thin gauze dress left a trail of afterimages in the air.
However, the Void Flame was too fast, like a maggot on the tarsal bone, chasing her closely.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!” With a few sounds of breaking through the air, the flaming chains wrapped around Sera’s body like a spirit snake, binding her tightly.
Sera screamed and fell heavily to the ground.
She struggled to break free, but found that the chains were as hard as steel and could not be moved at all.
With a “hiss”, Sera’s gauze dress was torn by the flame chains, revealing a large area of snow-white skin.
She lay on the ground in a mess, her charming image gone, replaced by fear and humiliation.
The surrounding leaves were curled up by the high temperature of the flame chain, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.
Ye Yu looked down at Sera with cold eyes, “This time I’m just teaching you a little lesson. If you dare to stop me again, I won’t let you go so easily next time!”
Sera looked at Ye Yu in horror. She struggled to get up, not bothering to tidy up her messy clothes. Like a stray dog, she fled into the depths of the forest without looking back.
Ye Yu looked at Sera’s fleeing back, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.
He put away the Void Flame and continued to move towards the guild.
Although he successfully resisted Sera’s temptation, he did not relax at all.
He knew that Eligore and his gang would not give up, and there were more challenges waiting for him ahead.
He took a deep breath, his eyes becoming more determined. He had to bring the magic crystal back to the guild!
Suddenly, a breeze blew by, bringing with it a faint smell of blood.
Ye Yu’s heart trembled, and he stopped suddenly…
Who is it?!
Chapter 36: Triumphant Return (Old Version)
Ye Yu was getting closer and closer to the guild and could almost smell the familiar aroma of ale in the air.
He quickened his pace, wishing he could grow wings and fly back to that warm place immediately.
The dawn of victory is just around the corner, and the light of the magic crystal seems to be even brighter.
But just as he was about to step into the guild’s door, a suffocating wave of magical power suddenly erupted, forcing him to stop in his tracks.
The space twisted, the earth trembled, and the strong wind carried the fallen leaves and dust to form a spiral airflow, rushing straight into the sky.
“Ye Yu! Do you really think you can escape from my grasp?”
Eligore’s figure slowly walked out of the distorted space. He was in tattered clothes, his hair was disheveled, his face was covered in blood, but there was a fire of madness burning in his eyes.
It was a desperate madness, a despair on the verge of collapse.
The surrounding buildings were trembling under the pressure of this powerful magic, as if they would collapse at any time.
The magic crystal in Ye Yu’s arms also felt this dangerous breath, trembling slightly and making a low buzzing sound.
“Eligor, you have gone crazy!” Ye Yu said in a deep voice, feeling the pressure that almost crushed him.
His legs sank deeply into the ground, as if they had taken root.
Eligore laughed loudly, his laughter was shrill and sharp. “Becoming possessed? I just can’t accept it! This magic crystal is mine! It should have belonged to me!”
He suddenly raised his hands, and the surrounding magic power rushed towards him frantically, forming a huge energy vortex.
The space was violently distorted, and even fine cracks appeared, as if it would collapse at any time.
“Go to hell! Ye Yu! Take your magic crystal with you to hell!”
Eligore roared and smashed the energy vortex in his hand towards Ye Yu.
Ye Yu only felt a huge overwhelming force coming towards him, which made it almost impossible for him to breathe.
His body was under tremendous pressure, and his bones creaked under the heavy load.
He knew that this was Eligore’s final madness and the biggest crisis he faced.
He gritted his teeth and tried his best to resist this terrifying force.
The magic crystal in his arms trembled even more violently, emitting a dazzling light.
“Want to steal my magic crystal? You are not qualified!” Ye Yu roared,
“Void…”
Ye Yu roared,
“Void Flame, burn everything!” Ye Yu stimulated the full potential of the Void Flame in his body.
In an instant, his body was completely enveloped in flames, the raging flames shot straight into the sky, the surrounding air was distorted by the heat, and Ye Yu only felt a powerful force surging in his body.
The flames burned his skin, but also filled him with strength.
Eligor’s attack hit the flames, but Ye Yu not only resisted it firmly, but also bounced all the force of the attack back.
Eligore’s eyes widened, and before he could react, he was hit by his own power.
His body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, blood spurting out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground with a “puff”.
The enemies around were so shocked by this scene that their jaws almost dropped.
Ye Yu took advantage of the victory and cast the most powerful magic in his reincarnation memory, merging it with the flame of the void.
The magic rushed towards Eligore and others like a meteor.
Seeing this, Eligore’s men were so scared that they fled, shouting “My life is in danger”.
Eligore tried to resist, but found himself powerless.
After the magic hit him, there was a loud bang and he fell to the ground, unable to stand up again. A big hole was blasted out in the ground around him, and dust flew everywhere.
Ye Yu put away the flame, patted the magic crystal in his arms, and walked towards the guild gate with a determined look.
When the guard at the door saw him, his eyes widened instantly, as if he had seen an incredible existence.
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and walked towards the guild without stopping. The smell of gunpowder from the battle still lingered on his body, and every step he took carried a powerful aura.
The door of the guild was pushed open, and Ye Yu walked into the noisy hall step by step in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The air was filled with the aroma of ale, mixed with the scent of sweat and magic, a familiar smell, the smell of home.
“Fuck! Ye Yu is back! And he brought the magic crystal with him!” Someone shouted, and the hall instantly exploded.
The noisy conversation and laughter suddenly stopped, and all eyes were focused on Ye Yu, as if time had stopped.
The next second, deafening cheers filled the entire hall, even more lively than the firecrackers during the New Year.
“Awesome! Master Ye Yu!”
“666, this operation is amazing!”
“As expected of my brother, you’re awesome!”
Ye Yu’s mouth corners slightly raised as he enjoyed this long-lost moment of glory.
He walked straight to the guild leader and handed over the magic crystal that was emitting brilliant light.
“President, I brought back the magic crystal.”
The president took the magic crystal and looked at it carefully, his eyes full of admiration.
“Ye Yu, your performance this time was truly outstanding! The guild is proud of you!”
The senior executives around also nodded and praised Ye Yu highly.
He was like a rising star, illuminating the entire guild.
Ye Yu was surrounded by the crowd, standing in the center of the guild hall, accepting everyone’s congratulations and admiration.
His name will be forever etched in the guild’s honor roll and become a legend.
He recalled the thrilling journey in search of the magic crystal, feeling filled with emotion.
From a fledgling rookie wizard to the current guild hero, he has experienced so much and grown so much.
He looked at the familiar faces around him and knew that he had truly become part of this big family. This was his home.
There is still a long way to go in the future, and the wizarding world is full of unknown challenges and opportunities.
Ye Yu took a deep breath. A new mission might come soon…
“By the way, how do I use this magic crystal? I’m waiting online, it’s urgent…”
Chapter 37 Controlling the Magic Crystal (Old Version)
In the noisy guild hall, cheers and clinking of glasses were deafening.
Ye Yu was surrounded by the crowd, as if he was in a grand concert. He said he enjoyed the aura of being the protagonist.
“666, worthy of being me!” He silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.
Seeing the magic crystal being carefully placed into the guild’s treasury by the president, Ye Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally able to complete his task!
If he lost this thing, he would have no place to cry.
However, just when Ye Yu was about to enjoy this hard-earned “sage time”, he caught a glimpse of a strange light flashing in the direction of the treasure house. The light was gone in a flash, like an illusion.
“Hmm? Is it an illusion?” Ye Yu rubbed his eyes and looked towards the treasure house again.
This time, he clearly saw that the light emitted by the magic crystal was no longer the pure brilliance as before, but a strange, flickering dark purple light, like breathing, flickering.
“Damn, no way! This thing has after-sales service?” Ye Yu’s heart tightened, and an ominous premonition arose.
He quietly separated himself from the crowd and approached the treasure house without making any noise.
As the distance got closer, the strange magical fluctuations became more and more obvious, as if an invisible hand was constantly scratching his chest, causing him to feel palpitations.
The guild hall was still bustling with activity, and everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, not noticing anything unusual.
Looking at the laughing faces around him, Ye Yu’s heart became heavier and heavier. This contrast made him feel like he was watching the protagonists of a horror movie committing suicide.
“It’s over, it’s over, Barbie Q!” he muttered to himself.
He took a deep breath, reached into his pocket, and his fingertips touched a cold stone…
That was the only item he brought from the previous world.
“It seems that I need you again…” Ye Yu took out a gray, inconspicuous stone from his pocket.
The surface of this stone is bumpy, like the surface of the moon, and has no aesthetic appeal at all.
But only Ye Yu knew that this thing was a treasure – the Void Stone!
Void Stone, as the name suggests, can absorb and store the energy of Void Flame.
And the flame of the void is Ye Yu s greatest golden finger!
He held the Void Stone tightly in his hand, took a deep breath, and felt the slight coolness coming from the stone.
The energy of the Void Flame slowly flowed into his body, gradually calming his restless heart.
“Keep calm, don’t be impulsive!” he said to himself.
Relying on the remaining knowledge in his reincarnation memories, Ye Yu began to try to stabilize the magic power of the magic crystal.
He placed his hand gently on the door of the treasure house, closed his eyes, and felt the violent fluctuations of magic coming from inside the door.
It feels like listening to Lao Wang next door singing through a wall. He is out of tune and loud, it’s simply noise!
“Tsk, this rhythm is wrong!” Ye Yu frowned and began to adjust the void flame in his body, trying to resonate with the magic power of the magic crystal.
This process is like debugging an old radio, where you need to constantly turn the knob to find the best frequency.
As time passed, beads of sweat appeared on Ye Yu’s forehead.
The noise in the guild hall seemed to be blocked by a thin film, and the only sounds in his world were the magical fluctuations of the magic crystal and the rhythm of the void flame.
Finally, when Ye Yu was about to give up, he felt a subtle change.
The magic fluctuations of the magic crystal were no longer so violent, but became slow and rhythmic, like a soothing lullaby.
Done!
Ye Yu suddenly opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
The dark purple light on the treasure house door gradually faded and returned to its previous brilliance.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled triumphantly.
“Hey, little guy, still want to fight me?”
In the guild, everyone was still celebrating, completely unaware of the thrilling scene that had just occurred.
Ye Yu returned to the crowd and enjoyed their cheers and praises.
However, the good times didn’t last long. When the guild leaders learned that something was wrong with the magic crystal, they immediately found Ye Yu.
“Ye Yu, are you sure there is no problem with the magic crystal you brought back?” President Makarov asked seriously.
“President, I can guarantee with my personality that there will be absolutely no problem!” Ye Yu patted his chest and guaranteed.
“But, the magic crystal just now…”
“It was just a small accident just now, I have solved it!” Ye Yu interrupted quickly.
“Accident? Do you know that this magic crystal concerns the safety of the entire guild and even the entire magic world?” an elder said sternly.
Ye Yu suddenly felt aggrieved. He had worked so hard to bring back the magic crystal, but was questioned by others. This made him feel very uncomfortable.
“I “
“Enough!” Makarov interrupted their argument, “Ye Yu, although you have resolved this crisis, we must be cautious. We need to re-evaluate the matter of the magic crystal…”
Ye Yu wanted to argue, but was stopped by Makarov’s eyes.
He could only shut his mouth helplessly, feeling extremely aggrieved.
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the treasure house…
“President, this is bad! Magic crystal…” a wizard shouted in horror.
“Boom!” There was a loud noise, like thunder striking out of nowhere, and the entire guild trembled.
The door to the treasury was blown open by a powerful magical force, with wood fragments flying and dust filling the air, just like an explosion scene in a Hollywood blockbuster.
The magic crystal was suspended in mid-air, emitting a dazzling dark purple light. The magic fluctuations swept across like a tsunami, impacting the guild’s protective magic.
“Damn, it really exploded!” Ye Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He threw the president who was closest to him to the ground and avoided the flying wood.
“President, are you okay?”
“Ahem, I’m fine…” Makarov got up covered in dust and dirt, his face ashen as he looked at the mess in front of him.
“What the hell is going on?!”
“President, now is not the time to assign responsibilities. Let’s control the magic crystal first!” Ye Yu pointed at the violent magic crystal in the air and spoke in a hurried tone.
He took a deep breath and mobilized the void flame in his body.
The gray void stone emitted a faint fluorescence in his hand, and a cool breath flowed through his body, calming him down instantly.
“Void Flame, come at me!”
Black flames gushed out from his palms, like a nimble fire dragon, sweeping towards the magic crystal.
The flames of the void collided with the magic power of the magic crystal, making a harsh sizzling sound, like the sound of oil dripping onto charcoal when grilling meat.
However, the magic power of the magic crystal was too strong. Although Ye Yu’s Void Flame could resist it for a while, it gradually became unsustainable.
“No, I can’t hold on much longer like this…” He clenched his teeth, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
The magicians around were all stunned. The power of this magic crystal was too terrifying!
They all retreated, fearing that they would be affected.
“Ye Yu, be careful!” Liu Xue shouted anxiously.
At this moment, Ye Yu had a flash of inspiration and thought of a new magic combination.
“Let’s fight!” he shouted, fusing the Void Flame with the guild’s protective magic.
Two different magical powers intertwined together, creating a wonderful resonance.
A powerful force erupted instantly, suppressing the magic power of the magic crystal.
The dark purple light gradually faded, and the magic crystal slowly returned to calm, like a tantrum child finally calming down.
“Huh…” Ye Yu let out a long sigh, collapsed on the ground, feeling his body was hollowed out.
“Finally done…”
The guild leaders were all stunned. This kid actually controlled the magic crystal!
They gathered around and praised Ye Yu highly.
“Ye Yu, you are so amazing!” “I didn’t expect you to come up with this method!”
Ye Yu felt a little embarrassed by the praise and scratched his head.
“Hehe, good luck, good luck…”
However, just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, Ye Yu felt something strange.
He looked at the magic crystal, “This is just the beginning…” he whispered, reaching out and touching the void stone again.
Chapter 38: Crystal Exploration and Source Search (Old Version)
Ye Yu sat cross-legged on the ground, placed his hand on the Void Stone again, and felt the energy fluctuations contained in it.
Unlike before, this time the energy feedback from the Void Stone gave him a strange feeling, like a turbulent undercurrent lurking beneath the calm surface of a lake.
“This thing… isn’t right.” He muttered to himself.
With doubts about the strangeness of the magic crystal, Ye Yu plunged into the Fairy Tail library.
It would be better to say it is a mountain of books than a library. Ancient magic books are piled up like mountains, emitting the scent of old ink and dust.
Ye Yu was rummaging through the pile of books like an archaeologist, pulling out a thick ancient book from time to time and studying it carefully with his eyes narrowed.
The surroundings were so quiet that the only sounds left were the rustling of pages being turned and Ye Yu’s occasional sigh.
“The origin of magic, the outline of alchemy, the analysis of ancient runes… these things have nothing to do with the mutation of magic crystals!” Ye Yu rubbed his sore eyes, feeling that he was about to become nearsighted.
The air in the library was heavy and dry, making his mouth dry.
He grabbed the kettle on the table, tilted his head back and took a big gulp. The cold water slid down his throat, bringing a hint of coolness.
Time passed minute by minute, and Ye Yu read more and more books, but he still didn’t find any useful information.
The reason for the magic crystal’s mutation remains a mystery, like a fog shrouding his heart.
He scratched his hair irritably, feeling like he had fallen into a huge maze and couldn’t find the exit.
“Is there really no clue?” He couldn’t help but feel discouraged.
The books piled up around him like mountains, like invisible walls, trapping him inside.
The library was silent, with only his own breathing audible.
This lonely exploration made him feel inexplicably depressed.
Ye Yu sighed and rubbed his sore eyes. Just as he was about to give up, his eyes fell on an inconspicuous ancient book.
The cover of this book was badly damaged and the title was unclear, but for some reason, Ye Yu felt an inexplicable attraction to it.
He reached out and picked up the book, gently blew off the dust on it, and opened the first page.
“Huh…” He uttered a soft exclamation, his eyes fixed on the words on the page.
“This…could it be…”
When Ye Yu was about to give up, his eyes fell on the inconspicuous ancient book.
The cover of the book was worn and the title was unclear, but for some reason, he felt an inexplicable attraction to it.
“Huh…” Ye Yu exclaimed softly, his eyes fixed on the words on the page.
His eyes suddenly lit up, his fatigue disappeared instantly, and his heart was filled with hope.
This ancient book records an ancient magical ritual that can change the properties of magic crystals, making them unstable.
Ye Yu’s heartbeat quickened as he realized that this might be the truth behind the magic crystal’s mutation.
“Could it be…” Ye Yu muttered to himself, a sneer on his face, “So that’s it, someone is behind this!”
He quickly memorized the contents of the book, then immediately stood up and decided to tell the guild leaders the news.
Ye Yu walked quickly out of the library, passed through the bustling guild hall, and headed straight for the president’s office.
Guild members came and went, some were discussing tasks, some were exchanging magical experiences, but Ye Yu had only one thought in his mind: to reveal the truth.
Ye Yu knocked on the door of the president’s office, and a low voice came from inside: “Come in.”
He pushed the door open and saw President Makarov sitting behind his desk with a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about something important.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and told Makarov all the evidence and inferences he had found.
“President, I found that the abnormality of the magic crystal may have been deliberately created by some evil forces. This ritual will not only destroy the stability of the magic crystal, but may also cause a greater disaster.” Ye Yu said seriously.
Makarov frowned even more when he heard this. After a moment of silence, he raised his head and stared at Ye Yu sharply: “Do you have any evidence?”
Ye Yu nodded firmly: “I found a clue in the ancient books in the library. I can take people to verify it.”
Just then, there was a noise outside the door.
Several wizards rushed in, led by Elsa, a senior wizard in the guild.
Her eyes flashed with distrust, and she sneered, “Ye Yu, you’re speaking too lightly. What evidence do you have? Don’t tell me you’re talking nonsense again!”
Ye Yu’s face darkened, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: “I won’t talk nonsense, I will prove it to you with facts!”
“Prove it with facts?” Elsa pressed forward, her eyes challenging. “Then let’s see if you’re right or wrong!”
Ye Yu took a deep breath, his eyes firm: “Okay, I accept your challenge, but before that, I must verify my inference first.”
After saying that, he turned and walked out the door with firm and powerful steps.
The guild members all cast complicated glances at him, and a tense atmosphere hung in the air.
“Then let’s see who will have the last laugh.” Elsa said coldly, watching Ye Yu leave.
Ye Yu had just stepped out of the guild gate when Erza’s dressing magic blinded his titanium dog eyes – “Heavenly Wheel Armor!” The huge chakra knife whizzed towards Ye Yu. This was not a challenge at all, it was clearly an attempt to cremate him on the spot!
Ye Yu dodged the attack with a lazy donkey roll, yelling, “Hey, hey, hey, if you don’t plan carefully, you’ll die quickly! Can you please listen to me finish my words?”
Several other wizards also displayed their magic, and colorful spells such as fire, ice, snow, and lightning came towards him.
Ye Yu jumped up and down to dodge the attacks while explaining his discovery in the library: “That ancient book records an evil magic ritual that can change the properties of the magic crystal! Think about the abnormal fluctuations of the magic crystal recently, don’t you think it’s very suspicious?”
“Stop talking nonsense! Show me the evidence!” a magician roared, throwing fireballs at Ye Yu like they were free.
Seeing that Ye Yu was about to be hit in the face by the fireball, he quickly activated the Void Flame. The black flame formed a barrier around him, swallowing up the fireball.
“Here’s the proof!” He pointed at the black flame in his hand, which was flickering slightly after absorbing the fireball. “The Void Flame can devour other flames and sense their fluctuations! I’ve discovered that the fluctuations of the magic crystal are very similar to the fluctuations of evil magic recorded in ancient books!”
When everyone saw what he did, their attacking movements paused.
Elsa put away her Sky Wheel Armor and frowned, “Are you sure?”
Ye Yu took the opportunity to pull out the tattered ancient book and pointed to a passage: “Look! It’s written clearly here!”
Everyone gathered together to take a look, and they saw that it indeed recorded an ancient ritual that could change the properties of the magic crystal and even cause a large-scale magical disaster.
Now everyone finally believed Ye Yu’s words and showed shocked expressions.
“So, someone is really doing something behind the scenes?”
“This is no joke!”
“They must be stopped as soon as possible!”
Everyone in the guild started discussing the matter. Ye Yu successfully reversed the situation and went from being a suspect to being the key figure in saving the guild.
But Ye Yu felt vaguely uneasy in his heart. He looked up into the distance and muttered to himself: “Who is the mastermind behind this? What is their purpose…”
At this time, Makarov walked out of the guild and patted Ye Yu on the shoulder: “Kid, you have worked hard. Leave the rest to us.”
Ye Yu nodded, but suddenly felt a chill coming from behind. He turned around suddenly, but saw nothing.
“What’s wrong?” Makarov asked.
Ye Yu shook his head and said in a low voice: “President, I always feel…”
“What do you feel?”
Chapter 39: Dark Magician (Old Version)
The truth is clear: a new path is waiting to be opened
“The mastermind behind this? Haha, I think they think their lives are too long!” Ye Yu sneered, his eyes as sharp as a knife, sweeping across every guild member present.
“Since you dare to set your sights on our Fairy Tail, you must be prepared to pay the price!”
Chairman Makarov waved his hand and shouted heroically, “Men, grab your weapons! If you dare to challenge me, don’t teach them a lesson. Do you really think we are vegetarians?”
Everyone in the guild roared in response, and the atmosphere instantly turned from low to high.
Looking at this group of passionate companions, Ye Yu also felt a burning desire to fight in his heart. He must find the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible and never let their conspiracy succeed.
“Let’s go! Target: Magic Forest!” Ye Yu was the first to walk out of the guild gate, followed by a large group of Fairy Tail wizards.
There was a strange atmosphere in the magic forest. The trees were towering into the clouds, and the branches and leaves were so dense that they blocked out the sun, and the sunlight could not penetrate.
It was unnaturally quiet here, like the calm before a storm.
From time to time, some creepy moans came from the darkness, making everyone nervous.
“Be careful, there’s something weird here.” Ye Yu reminded his companions while keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings.
Sure enough, not long after they went deep into the forest, the ground suddenly cracked open, and countless vines stretched out like living things, wrapping around their ankles.
Everyone was caught off guard and was dragged underground by the vines.
“What the hell! What the hell is this!” someone exclaimed, struggling in panic.
Ye Yu dodged the attack of the vines with a flash of his body, and condensed a ball of void flame in his hand. The flame instantly engulfed the vines wrapped around his feet.
Seeing his companions trapped, his heart tightened and the Void Flame erupted again, trying to burn the vines.
But these vines seemed endless. When one was burned, two more would grow, making it impossible to guard against them.
“Damn it!” Ye Yu gritted his teeth and felt a sense of guilt as he watched his companions groaning in pain under the restraint of the vines.
He was the one who brought everyone here, and he would never forgive himself if they got hurt!
What’s worse is that as time goes by, dangerous creatures begin to appear around.
Groups of fanged demonic wolves jumped out of the woods, their eyes glowing green as they bared their teeth and pounced towards them.
“Everyone be careful, the demon wolf is coming!”
“Damn it! Why are there so many demon wolves?”
The battle broke out instantly, and the light of magic shone in the dark forest, but the enemies seemed endless, and fatigue gradually crept into everyone’s hearts.
The air was filled with the smell of blood, and the screams that came one after another hit Ye Yu’s heart like a heavy hammer.
“No, this can’t go on!” Ye Yu roared angrily. He looked at the vines that were attacking again not far away. A nameless fire burned in his chest and his eyes became extremely firm.
At this moment, he suddenly heard Liu Xue exclaim, “Ye Yu, be careful behind you!”
Ye Yu turned around suddenly and saw a thick vine coming from behind like a giant python at an astonishing speed.
He had no time to dodge, so he could only bite the bullet, condense the flames of the void into his fists, and smash them hard into the vines.
With a loud “boom”, the vines exploded and turned into countless fragments that flew out.
“Brothers, follow me!” Ye Yu shouted, and the flames of the void burned around him, forming a flame barrier that burned all the attacking vines and magic wolves.
“Charge!” Everyone’s morale was boosted, and they followed Ye Yu closely, plunging into the enemy formation like sharp knives.
“Wow, Brother Yu is awesome!”
“Brother Yu is the eternal God!”
“Brother Yu, take me flying!”
Ye Yu’s Void Flame was like a cheat. Wherever it went, no grass grew, and the magic wolves and vines turned to ashes.
He was like a human bulldozer, forcibly clearing a path for his companions to the lair of evil forces.
Finally, they stopped in front of a dark cave.
The entrance of the cave was filled with a strong dark atmosphere, which made people shudder.
“This is it.” Ye Yu took a deep breath, his eyes determined.
“After searching high and low for something, I finally found it without any effort. You little scum are finally here!” A gloomy voice came from the depths of the cave, and then a figure in a black robe and a hooded head walked out slowly.
“Are you the mastermind behind this?” Ye Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at the dark magician in front of him who was emitting powerful magical fluctuations.
“Yes, it’s me.” The dark magician laughed strangely. “I didn’t expect you could find this place. But since you’re here, stay!” He slowly raised his hands, and a powerful dark magic gathered in his palms. “I will let you experience what true despair is!”
“Oh, you’re quite arrogant.” Ye Yu sneered, “It’s still uncertain who will win!”
The dark magician laughed sinisterly, “Then give it a try!” He suddenly blasted the dark magic power in his hand towards Ye Yu and others…
“Flame of the Void, explode!” The dark magician’s attack came like a storm, and countless black energy bombs, wrapped in the breath of corrosion, bombarded Ye Yu and his companions.
“Damn, this old guy is firing on all cylinders!” Natsu couldn’t help but complain as he dodged in a panic.
Ye Yu activated his “Fire Eyes and Golden Pupils” and, relying on the combat skills acquired from his reincarnation memories, narrowly avoided the attacks while commanding his companions to fight back.
However, the dark magician’s attack methods were endless. Sometimes it was a sharp blade transformed from black mist, and sometimes it was a gloomy curse. Everyone was exhausted from dealing with it, and scars began to appear on their bodies.
“This guy is quite capable!” Gray spat, and a cut was made on his body, and a trace of cold air came out.
Ye Yu saw this and felt a chill in his heart. He must fight quickly and decisively!
He shouted, “Brothers, concentrate your fire! Lend me your strength!”
Hearing Ye Yu’s instructions, the Fairy Tail members quickly adjusted their formation and continuously channeled magic power to Ye Yu.
Natsu’s Fire Dragon Roar, Gray’s Ice Blade, Lucy’s Celestial Magic…
Magical powers of various attributes intertwined together, converging into a powerful torrent of energy.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and merged this power with the flames of the void. “Void Flame Explosion!” He roared, and a ball of extremely hot flame condensed in his hand, like a small sun, blasting towards the dark magician.
With a loud “boom”, the shock wave of the explosion shook the entire cave and the figure of the dark magician was instantly engulfed by flames.
“How is this possible?!” The dark magician roared unwillingly. He didn’t expect that he would be forced to this point by a group of juniors.
“Ah! I won’t give up!” After struggling in the flames for a few times, he finally turned into ashes.
Crisis averted!
“Yeah! We won!” The Fairy Tail wizards cheered and celebrated their victory loudly.
Ye Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of accomplishment in his heart. He had finally become stronger again.
At this time, his name had already resounded throughout the Fairy Tail Guild and he had become a hero in everyone’s eyes.
However, at this moment, a mysterious visitor came to the guild.
He was wearing a black cloak and a strange mask on his face, so his true appearance could not be seen.
He walked straight to Ye Yu and said in a hoarse voice, “Ye Yu, I know you are hiding a big secret…”
Ye Yu looked at the mysterious visitor in front of him, his heart full of doubts, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
The visitor looked at him with a half-smile, a meaningful glint in his eyes, and then he slowly spoke…
Chapter 40: A Guest Arrives to Provoke a Provocation (Old Version)
“Ye Yu, I know you are hiding a big secret…”
The mysterious visitor’s hoarse voice echoed in the noisy guild, like thunderclap out of the blue, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
Ye Yu frowned slightly, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.
He stared at the mysterious man in front of him, who was wrapped in a black cloak. Behind that strange mask, there seemed to be a secret as unfathomable as the abyss.
The air seemed to freeze, and the originally lively atmosphere was instantly replaced by tension. Everyone held their breath, waiting for what would happen next.
“Haha, interesting.” The mysterious visitor raised his lips with a smile that was not a smile. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Ye Yu’s soul, making people feel a chill.
“Do you think you’ve hidden it well? Your background isn’t as simple as you think.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the guild members looked at each other in confusion, whispers rising and falling.
Makao even stepped forward, his weather-beaten face filled with doubt as he demanded, “Hey, kid, who are you? Is what he said true? Are you really hiding something from us?”
Ye Yu was speechless. This sudden plot twist caught him off guard.
What the hell is this bloody plot?
As soon as this mysterious man came, he put a big blame on him, and it was a big blame for the mystery of his life experience. He was really more wronged than Dou E!
He took a deep breath and tried to explain, “I don’t know what you are talking about. My life story is clean and there are no secrets at all.”
However, the mysterious visitor seemed to have anticipated his words and immediately sneered, “Haha, the more you try to hide something, the more obvious it becomes! Do you think your lies can fool everyone? Your power is not something an ordinary person can possess.”
“Power? Are you referring to the Void Flame?” Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this guy was coming for the Void Flame?
This is really outrageous.
He tried to explain again, “I got this by accident, there’s nothing wrong with it!”
Makao and other guild members looked at Ye Yu one after another. The surrounding voices of doubt came like a tide, making Ye Yu feel as if he was being roasted on fire.
He felt a deep sense of powerlessness. No matter how he explained, it seemed to be in vain. The oppressive feeling was like a huge rock pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe. The more he tried to explain, the more doubts he saw on other people’s faces.
Just when everyone thought that Ye Yu would continue to defend himself and stage a “Dou E Injustice” 2.0 version, he suddenly stopped explaining.
Ye Yu slowly raised his head, a playful smile on his lips.
He is not some little white rabbit that can be slaughtered at will.
Reincarnation memory is not vegetarian!
This mysterious visitor seemed to be coming with great force, but his words were full of loopholes, like a sieve.
His eyes instantly became sharp, like two sharp swords, piercing straight at the mysterious visitor.
An aura of confidence emanated from him, like a firefly in the dark night, so dazzling and outstanding.
The air around them seemed to freeze, and you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was staring at Ye Yu, waiting for his next move.
This sudden change in style made the people who were originally just watching the show a little confused.
“You said my life story is not simple?” Ye Yu’s voice was low and powerful, with a hint of sarcasm. “Then tell me, what exactly is my life story not simple? Is my father the Dragon King? Is my mother a Phoenix? Or did I jump out of a crack in a rock?”
The mysterious visitor’s expression under the mask changed slightly, obviously he didn’t expect Ye Yu to suddenly counterattack.
He hesitated for a long time but couldn’t make any clear answer, just like a primary school student scratching his head when being asked a question by the teacher.
“You keep saying that I’m hiding secrets, that my power is unusual,” Ye Yu pressed on, his tone full of teasing, “Then may I ask, Your Excellency, how well do you know me? Do you know what I had for breakfast? Do you know what I dreamed about last night? Do you know…”
Ye Yu’s series of soul-searching questions bombarded the mysterious visitor like a machine gun, making him unable to cope.
The guild members around him also began to waver. They originally thought that Ye Yu was at a loss for words, but now it seems that there was another hidden story.
Ye Yu’s counterattack was textbook-level, catching the mysterious visitor off guard.
“You…you are making excuses!” The mysterious visitor was so angry that his voice trembled.
“Sophisticated?” Ye Yu sneered. “Who is making specious claims? You have no evidence, you are just making up lies, and yet you accuse me of making specious claims? This is truly ridiculous!”
Ye Yu’s wit and sharp words made the surrounding guild members look at him with admiration.
This kid is really good!
Ye Yu was secretly happy in his heart. This feeling of being overwhelmed by others in terms of intelligence was really great!
“You…” The mysterious visitor was speechless and glared at Ye Yu angrily.
“What do you mean by ‘I’?” Ye Yu stared back at him without showing any weakness. “What? You’re out of words? Do you want me to give you some more hints?”
The mysterious visitor was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he could do nothing to Ye Yu.
He swung his sleeves fiercely, said, “Just wait for me!”, then turned and disappeared through the guild gate.
“I’ll wait.” Ye Yu shrugged and said with a relaxed look, “But next time, remember to bring some real stuff. Don’t be like today, where you get something for nothing and make a fool of yourself.”
“Ye Yu…” Makao walked in front of Ye Yu with a complicated expression.
“Ye Yu…” Macao walked up to Ye Yu, his tone a little complicated, his brows furrowed like an old cadre.
“Although you seemed quite pleased with yourself when you confronted that mysterious man just now, I still can’t fully trust you.” He paused, then continued, “For the safety of the guild and to uncover the truth, I’ve decided to temporarily restrict your movements. You can’t leave the guild until you prove your innocence.”
Macao’s words were like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the little flame of hope that Ye Yu had just ignited from head to toe.
What the hell, he was just pretending to be so cool, and now he s doing this to him?
Restricted movement?
Isn’t this simply house arrest?
Ye Yu looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him, feeling mixed emotions and a sense of loneliness.
My former partner now doesn’t trust me. This feeling is so sour!
The air around them seemed to have turned icy cold, and even the laughter and chatter in the guild seemed particularly harsh.
“Okay, I’ll cooperate.” Ye Yu shrugged helplessly. Instead of complaining like a shrew, it would be better to cooperate actively and take the initiative.
“I accept your investigation, but at the same time, I also want to find out what this so-called ‘mystery of my life experience’ is all about!” Ye Yu’s eyes were firm and his tone was resolute. He was not a soft persimmon that could be manipulated by anyone.
His attitude changed the views of the guild members who were originally skeptical of Ye Yu.
There was a hint of hesitation and wavering in their eyes. This boy might not be as simple as he seemed.
Ye Yu keenly caught these changes and smiled secretly in his heart.
He knew that he had regained some initiative and could no longer passively take the beating as before.
His eyes became more profound. He wanted to seize this opportunity to completely solve all the mysteries.
At this moment, in a dark corner, the mysterious visitor was smiling grimly.
His eyes, hidden behind the mask, flickered with an unsettling glint.
He stroked the strangely shaped magic prop in his hand as if he were stroking a beloved toy.
He muttered to himself, his voice as sinister as a venomous snake: “Ye Yu, Ye Yu, do you think this is the end? The good show has just begun…”
Ye Yu didn’t know that a bigger conspiracy was quietly approaching.
He took a deep breath. He had to investigate his life experience as soon as possible and clear his name. He didn’t want to be treated like a guinea pig.
He walked quickly towards the guild’s basement, where there might be some clues hidden that would allow him to dispel the fog and find the dawn of truth.
Chapter 41: The Mystery of Life (Old Version)
The air in the guild basement was heavy, filled with the musty smell of ancient magical items and books.
The dust danced in the dim light, like a group of ghosts whispering.
Ye Yu moved among them carefully, fearing that he would damage these precious “antiques”.
He squinted his eyes, his gaze swept over the thick magic books, and his fingers brushed over the strangely shaped magic props. He felt nervous and expectant, as excited as opening a blind box.
“Flame of the Void…Flame of the Void…” Ye Yu muttered in a low voice, like a spell.
He always felt that his life experience was closely related to this mysterious flame.
The basement was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, with only the rustling sound of Ye Yu flipping through books and the occasional creaking of wooden boards.
He felt like he was playing an escape room game, which was both exciting and brain-burning.
Suddenly, a dark shadow appeared at the entrance of the basement, as silent as a ghost.
The mysterious visitor is coming!
He hid in the shadows, his eyes flashing with conspiracy behind the mask, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he was enjoying the show that was about to take place.
At the same time, Arzak and Bisca quietly came to the door of the basement.
They received a commission from Macao to secretly observe Ye Yu’s every move.
The old fox Macao is still worried about this kid Ye Yu.
“This kid is sneaking around, there must be something wrong!” Bisca whispered, the magic gun in her hand was ready to go, ready to give Ye Yu a “Friendship Face-Breaking Punch” at any time.
Arzak pushed his glasses and calmly analyzed, “Let’s take a look at the situation first and don’t act rashly.”
Ye Yu was so immersed in searching for clues that he had no idea that danger was approaching.
He opened a thick magic book, which contained various ancient magic spells.
Suddenly, he felt a chill on his back and a strong sense of unease came over him.
He turned around suddenly, only to see Alzak and Bisca staring at him warily.
“What… are you doing here?” Ye Yu’s heart skipped a beat. He knew he was misunderstood again.
“Humph, there’s really something wrong with you! What are you doing sneaking around in the basement?” Bisca asked bluntly.
“I’m… I’m looking for some information.” Ye Yu explained, his tone a little weak.
He felt like a mouse trapped in a cage, unable to escape the invisible net no matter how hard he struggled.
At this time, the mysterious visitor’s smile became even more pronounced.
He quietly placed a small magical device in the corner of the basement and left quietly.
This device emits weak magical fluctuations, which are enough to interfere with the magic detectors in the guild, making Ye Yu’s suspicion even more unclear.
Ye Yu was still trying to explain, but Alzak and Bisca didn’t believe him at all.
They looked at Ye Yu with suspicion and hostility.
Ye Yu’s heart sank to the bottom. He felt like an orphan abandoned by the whole world, lonely and helpless.
Suddenly, Ye Yu’s hand touched an old diary. The cover of the diary was worn and tattered, with a few unclear words written on it.
His heart moved, and an inexplicable premonition came to his mind…
“What…what is this?”
Ye Yu opened the ancient diary with trembling hands. The yellowed paper exuded an old smell, and the crooked handwriting on it seemed to hide a huge secret.
At this moment, the mysterious visitor appeared like a ghost, snatched the diary, and shouted: “Look, he wants to destroy the evidence!” The voice was sharp and piercing, echoing in the silent basement.
The eyes of Alzak and Bisca instantly became colder, like two sharp blades stabbing at Ye Yu.
Although Ye Yu was shocked, he quickly calmed down.
The magical knowledge from his reincarnation memories quickly flashed through his mind. He quickly formed seals with his hands and chanted ancient spells.
In an instant, there was a flash of light, and the diary was back in his hands.
Ye Yu held up the diary high and showed it to Alzak and Biska: “Look, there is nothing in it that he said!” The two of them took a closer look and saw that there were only some records of ancient magic and some vague family emblem patterns.
They looked at each other, and their suspicion of Ye Yu was slightly alleviated.
Seeing this, Ye Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the mysterious visitor sneered, took out something from his arms, and said sarcastically: “Hmph, how do you explain this?” Everyone’s attention was attracted again, and the tense atmosphere spread again.
Ye Yu frowned, staring at the thing in the visitor’s hand, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
In the mysterious visitor’s hand was a badge emitting a strange black aura, on which was engraved a hideous demon head. The black aura was wriggling like a living thing, which made people shudder.
“This… this is the symbol of the Dark Guild!” He screamed in feigned terror, his voice as sharp and piercing as fingernails scraping against a blackboard. “Ye Yu, you’re colluding with evil forces! No wonder you’re so sneaky!”
When Bisca heard this, she instantly loaded the magic gun in her hand. The crisp sound of metal collision was particularly harsh in the silent basement.
She stared at Ye Yu, her eyes full of vigilance and suspicion, as if she was about to pull the trigger in the next second, “Tell me! What is going on?!”
Ye Yu looked at the badge and his heart sank. He had never even seen this thing before. It was a complete slander!
He felt like he was caught up in an elaborate conspiracy, and a suffocating feeling came over him.
This rhythm was a typical “Werewolf” start, and he was directly pinned to the ground and rubbed.
Instead of panicking, he became calmer.
Ye Yu carefully observed the badge. Although the black aura was intimidating, a closer look revealed that the workmanship was extremely rough, almost at the level of “street stall goods”.
He curled his lips and instantly understood that this was just another clumsy performance by the mysterious visitor!
Ye Yu sneered and suddenly raised his hands. A ball of purple-black flame jumped in his palms, and the scorching temperature instantly dispelled the coldness in the basement.
“Flame of the Void!” He shouted softly, and the flames instantly engulfed the black badge.
Under the terrifyingly high temperature of the Void Flame, the so-called “evidence” was instantly reduced to ashes without leaving any residue.
“See? This thing is fake!” Ye Yu pointed to the remaining ashes on the ground. Alzak pushed his glasses, looked at the burnt badge on the ground, and then looked at Ye Yu’s calm face. His doubts about Ye Yu were slightly reduced, and there was even a hint of admiration.
This kid is really something!
Bisca was also a little shaken, but still remained vigilant, “Even if this badge is fake, how do you prove that you have nothing to do with the Dark Guild?”
After all, these days, villains like to use “sleight of hand” to confuse people.
“Proof? I don’t need proof!” Ye Yu sneered and shrugged. “The innocent will be innocent. If you don’t believe me, forget it!”
“Wait, this diary…” Ye Yu suddenly remembered the ancient diary he had just picked up in a hurry. He immediately opened it and found that it seemed to contain a mystery. He began to study it carefully…
Chapter 42: The Story of My Life Revealed: The Letter Returns to Me (Old Version)
Ye Yu quickly flipped through the diary in his hand. The yellowed paper made a rustling sound and a faint musty smell entered his nostrils.
The diary contained some strange magic symbols and obscure spells, but he keenly discovered that one of the symbols that appeared repeatedly was exactly the same as the birthmark on his arm!
This shocked him. Could this diary be related to his life experience?
He continued to flip through the pages and finally found the key clue on a torn page of paper – “Obsidian Hotel, Room 304”.
Ye Yu slammed the diary shut. So that’s it!
He immediately stood up and rushed out of the basement like a gust of wind.
Obsidian Hotel, a place whose name sounds very “middle school”.
Ye Yu stood in front of Room 304. The corridor was quiet, with only the dim magic lamp emitting a faint light.
He took a deep breath, and an inexplicable sense of tension surged in his heart, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
He gently turned the doorknob, and the door was not locked!
He slipped into the room and closed the door behind him.
The room was dimly lit and filled with a strange fragrance, a bit like…
Burnt feathers?
Ye Yu frowned and looked around.
The room was simply furnished with a bed, a table and a wardrobe, nothing special.
Suddenly, he felt a slight movement behind him. Before he could react, a black shadow flashed by, accompanied by a gust of wind, and a fireball came towards him.
With a “bang”, the fireball flew past his cheek, and the scorching temperature made him feel a stinging pain.
Ye Yu dodged in a panic. The tables and chairs in the room were blown to pieces, and wood chips flew everywhere.
“It seems you’ve discovered my secret.” A cold voice came from the corner. The mysterious visitor slowly walked out with a strange smile on his face. “But you won’t leave here alive!”
Ye Yu sneered, and the flame of the void burned fiercely in his hands like a violent fire dragon.
“Just you? Are you qualified to say such things?” He waved his hand and a ball of purple-black flame roared out, instantly illuminating the room like daylight.
This flame is different from ordinary magical flames. It carries an all-consuming aura, and the air is filled with a suffocating burning sensation.
The mysterious visitor obviously did not expect Ye Yu’s flames to be so overbearing. He hastily released a wall of earth to try to block it. However, in front of the flames of the void, the wall of earth was as fragile as a piece of paper and was instantly burned to ashes.
The mysterious visitor dodged in a panic as flames swept over him. Several large holes were burned in his gorgeous magic robe, making him look extremely miserable.
“You guy…what kind of monster are you?!” the mysterious visitor shouted in horror. He felt that his magic power was being devoured by this strange flame, and his body was becoming weaker and weaker.
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, “Want to know? Go to hell and ask the King of Hell!” He waved his hands again, and several tongues of fire wrapped around the mysterious visitor like poisonous snakes, trapping him tightly.
The mysterious visitor let out a scream and was about to collapse when the door was suddenly kicked open.
“Stop!” Ryan rushed in and saw the scene in front of him, and was immediately furious. “Ye Yu, what are you doing?!”
Ye Yu was slightly stunned. He did not expect Ryan to suddenly appear. He quickly retracted the flame and explained: “Ryan, you misunderstood, this guy…”
“Misunderstanding?” Ryan pointed at the burnt-out room and the disheveled mysterious visitor. “You call this a misunderstanding? Look at what you’ve done!”
“This guy is not a good person, he…” Ye Yu wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Ryan.
“Enough! I don’t want to hear your excuses!” Ryan pulled out his wand and pointed it at Ye Yu, “You must be responsible for your actions!”
Ye Yu helplessly spread out the diary in his hand and pointed at the familiar symbol, “Rian, I found this diary in an abandoned basement. It is related to my life experience! Look here, this symbol, it is exactly the same as the birthmark on my arm!” He pointed to his arm, and the purple-black mark on the skin looked particularly weird.
Ryan took the diary, his eyes swept over the obscure symbols, then looked at the mark on Ye Yu’s arm, his brows furrowed, “What…what’s going on?”
Ye Yu recounted everything about his discovery in the basement and the events at the Obsidian Hotel. His tone was calm and firm, and Ryan was stunned. A look of shock gradually appeared on his hard face.
“So, this guy is coming for me? And he wants to silence me?!” Ryan’s tone was full of anger. He looked again at the mysterious visitor who was burned to a crisp by the flames of the void. His eyes were burning with anger, and the wand in his hand began to flash with dazzling light.
“That’s right, there’s something wrong with this guy! Let’s take him down first!” Ye Yu’s eyes were burning with fighting spirit, and the flame of the void was jumping in his hands again.
Ryan nodded heavily, turned around, and pointed his wand at the mysterious visitor, “Hmph, you dare to cause trouble in Fairy Tail’s territory, you must be tired of living!” A strong magical power burst out from his body, and the magical fluctuations in the air became chaotic.
The two men attacked at the same time. The void flame was like a roaring fire dragon, and Ryan’s magic poured out like a storm.
Under the attack of the two, the mysterious visitor couldn’t hold on any longer. He let out a terrible scream, and his magic robe was burned into tatters.
“Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I…I said!” The mysterious visitor finally couldn’t bear it anymore and begged for mercy again and again.
Ye Yu and Li En stopped. Li En pointed his wand at his nose and said viciously, “Tell me! Who are you? Why did you attack Ye Yu?!”
The mysterious visitor trembled and said, “I…we are employed by an organization…They say Ye Yu is…a descendant of an ancient magic family, and the flame in his body is a family inheritance. In order to avoid trouble, they want to…get rid of him!”
“What?!” Ryan exclaimed. He looked at Ye Yu in disbelief. It turned out that he was the real hidden boss.
Ye Yu was also stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect that his golden finger was actually a family inheritance.
No wonder this Void Flame is so domineering, it turns out it has a origin.
“This kid is actually a descendant of an ancient family? No wonder he’s so awesome!”
“It seems like we’ve found a treasure this time. From now on, we’ll just follow him and have a good life!”
A large group of Fairy Tail members had gathered outside the door at some point. After hearing the mysterious visitor’s confession, they began to talk among themselves, and looked at Ye Yu with eyes full of awe and envy.
Ye Yu looked at everyone’s trusting eyes and felt relieved.
He knew that he was finally truly accepted by the guild. He was no longer an object of suspicion, but a partner of Fairy Tail!
“But this is just the beginning.” Ye Yu thought to himself that the secrets of the Void Flame are far more than these, and there are more challenges waiting for him in the future.
Chapter 43: Tug of War of Trust in the Mist of Life (Old Version)
Ye Yu looked at the suspicious eyes around him and felt depressed.
He knew that although the mysterious visitor’s confession had solved part of the mystery of his life, the guild members’ suspicions had not been completely eliminated.
He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said to himself firmly, “I must find more evidence to completely prove my innocence.”
At this moment, Makao walked over angrily and questioned Ye Yu directly: “Ye Yu, what is your relationship with that mysterious visitor? Why did he say that you are a descendant of an ancient magic family?”
Ye Yu looked up at Macao and tried to explain: “Macao, that visitor might have been taken advantage of. I don’t know why that organization said that, but I can assure you that I have no ill intentions.”
Makao, however, refused to accept his words and snorted coldly, “Hmph, you say you have no ill intentions? Then tell me, how did you get the Void Flame?”
People around also gathered around, each with a suspicious and wary look in their eyes.
Ye Yu was surrounded by the crowd, feeling isolated and helpless, and the atmosphere was very tense.
Bisca held the bow in her hand and aimed the arrow at Ye Yu. The slightly trembling bowstring seemed to foreshadow that a battle might break out at any time.
“Ye Yu, what Macao said makes sense. You must give us a reasonable explanation.” Alzak said calmly, with a hint of imperceptible anxiety in his eyes.
“Yes, Ye Yu, we believe you, but you also have to understand our concerns.” Ryan said from the side, trying to ease the atmosphere, but he could hardly completely hide his inner uneasiness.
Ye Yu felt the pressure from all around him, but his heart became more determined.
He took a deep breath, raised his head, and scanned the area with a determined gaze before speaking slowly, “I understand your concerns, but please listen to me. The Void Flame within me does indeed come from an ancient family, but that family has long since vanished. I’m not some hidden tycoon, just an ordinary person who gained this power by accident.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him still seemed skeptical.
Ye Yu knew that just a few words would not be enough to completely dispel their suspicions.
He secretly thought that he must find more evidence to completely prove his innocence.
At this moment, Ye Yu suddenly remembered a detail in his reincarnation memory, which was a secret legend about an ancient magic family.
Something in his heart moved. He looked up at everyone, smiled slightly, and said, “I have a way to completely prove my innocence. But I need everyone’s cooperation.”
Seeing Ye Yu’s confidence, everyone’s doubts were slightly reduced and they all lowered their guard.
Although Makao still had some doubts, he nodded and said, “Okay, but if you lie again, you will bear the consequences!”
Ye Yu took a deep breath, nodded, and had a plan in mind.
He suddenly turned around and walked straight to the door of the guild, leaving behind a sentence that made everyone’s hearts hang in suspense: “Follow me, there is only one truth!” Ye Yu stopped abruptly, turned around to face everyone, with a confident light in his eyes.
“I know a secret that only the descendants of an ancient magic family know!” He said in a firm tone, “Three hundred meters underground in the Fairy Tail Guild, there is a magic stone engraved with the mark of the first president!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
This secret is only known to successive presidents and a few elders. How could a new wizard know it?
Some guild members who originally doubted Ye Yu began to waver and whisper.
Ryan clenched his fists excitedly: “I knew you were not a bad person, Ye Yu!”
Seeing that everyone’s attitude had changed, Ye Yu felt a glimmer of hope in his heart, as if he saw a ray of light in the darkness.
He knew that as long as he found the Philosopher’s Stone, he could prove his connection with the ancient magic family and clear his name.
However, Arzak poured cold water on it.
“Wait,” he analyzed calmly, “this detail may also be forged by you. How do you prove that you know this secret and not get it from other channels?” His sharp eyes locked on Ye Yu like a hawk, as if he wanted to see through all his disguises.
Ye Yu and Arzak looked at each other. The air was filled with tension, like a taut string that could break at any time.
The temperature around them dropped sharply, and an invisible pressure enveloped everyone, making them feel suffocated.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, “In that case…” The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a mysterious smile, “Then let me prove it with practical actions.” He slowly raised his right hand, and a ball of dark blue flame burned in his palm, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations.
###Chapter 43: Tug of War of Trust in the Mist of Life
Ye Yu stood in the center of the guild, surrounded by more than a dozen pairs of vigilant eyes.
He took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with determination.
The flame of the void burned in his palm, and the dark blue flame seemed to contain endless mysterious power, which was heart-pounding.
“Since you don’t believe what I say, let me prove it with practical actions!” Ye Yu’s voice was sonorous and powerful, as if every word carried irresistible majesty.
He slowly raised his hands, and the void flames spread along his arms, forming a slender chain of fire that lightly surrounded his body.
“Have you seen this kind of fire magic?” Ye Yu’s voice was a little provocative, and his eyes swept over everyone.
Under his control, the Void Flame was like a spirit snake, constantly changing its shape, sometimes turning into a sharp blade, sometimes into a shield, which was a dazzling sight.
“This… this is the Void Flame that can only be used by the descendants of an ancient magic family!” The members of Alzak’s guild also showed shocked expressions, and the tense atmosphere surrounding Ye Yu gradually eased.
The bowstring in Bisca’s hand loosened, and her frown gradually relaxed.
“Ye Yu, since you have such powerful abilities but have never harmed the guild, you should give us a chance to explain.” There was a hint of guilt in her words, but more of a desire for the truth.
Ye Yu felt a little relieved and felt a little warm.
He knew that this might be the crucial moment to break the deadlock.
“Thank you, Bisca.” He smiled slightly, then looked at the people around him and said firmly, “I believe that as long as everyone gives me a chance, I will be able to prove my innocence.”
Ryan clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with determination: “Ye Yu, why don’t we go to the guild basement to investigate some ancient materials, maybe we can find more clues.”
Ye Yu nodded, and new hope ignited in his heart.
He looked at Arzak with determination in his eyes: “Arzak, are you willing to come with me? We need a calm head to analyze the clues.”
Arzak was slightly stunned, then nodded: “Okay, I’ll go with you. But remember, there is only one truth, and we must be prepared to face any possibility.” After he said that, he turned and walked towards the basement of the guild with firm steps.
Ye Yu followed closely behind, secretly calculating in his mind.
He knew that this tug-of-war of trust amidst the fog of his life experience was about to take a new turn.
Ye Yu grinned and patted Ryan on the shoulder: “Good brother, that’s very nice! Let’s go and look through the antiques!” He was so excited as if he had found a box of fat otaku happy water, and he wanted to rush into the basement immediately to uncover the mystery of his life.
It feels like playing a puzzle game and finally finding the key clue, just one step away from success!
The guild basement was dark and damp, the air was filled with the smell of ancient dust, and the walls were covered with wet moss, like a scene from a horror movie.
Ye Yu took a deep breath. This smell is amazing!
It’s like a live version of “Tomb Raider”!
The basement is filled with dusty bookshelves and boxes, exuding a “smell of history.”
Ye Yu felt like an archaeologist, searching for treasures in the long river of history.
He rubbed his hands together and began to search through boxes and cabinets with great enthusiasm, humming a little tune: “I’m searching, searching, searching, a mysterious life story~~~”
The atmosphere in the guild also became subtle.
Some were whispering, some were frowning, and some were looking expectant.
Macao stood aside with his arms folded, looking at Ye Yu’s busy back with complicated eyes. His heart felt like a bottle of five flavors had been overturned, with all kinds of tastes, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty.
“Who is this kid?” He muttered to himself, hoping that Ye Yu could prove his innocence, but also worried that he would cause trouble.
Bisca prayed silently, hoping that Ye Yu could find the truth as soon as possible so that the guild could return to its former peace.
Deep in the basement, Ye Yu dug through a pile of worn scrolls and suddenly found a complex magic circle engraved on the floor.
The magic circle emitted a faint blue light, similar to the color of the void flame on his body, which made his heart tremble!
“Shit! This can’t be such a coincidence?” He squatted down and carefully observed the patterns of the magic circle. It felt like some kind of ancient seal.
He reached out and touched the magic circle, and a strange energy wave instantly spread throughout his body, making him tremble.
At this moment, a dangerous aura approached quietly, and the air around seemed to solidify, so oppressive that it made people breathless.
Ye Yu suddenly raised his head and looked around vigilantly. The basement was quiet, with only his rapid breathing echoing.
“Who?!” he asked in a deep voice, the flame of the void burning fiercely in his palm, illuminating the dim space around him.
A cold voice rang out from the darkness: “Hehehe…Have you discovered it? Unfortunately, it’s too late…”
Chapter 44: Dawn of Life (Old Version)
Ye Yu squatted down and carefully observed the patterns of the magic circle. It felt like some kind of ancient seal.
Ye Yu looked around vigilantly, the dangerous atmosphere was getting stronger and stronger.
He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and prepared to deal with any possible danger.
This basement was full of unknowns, and his heart beat faster involuntarily.
Suddenly, some dark magical creatures emerged from the darkness and attacked Ye Yu.
He was unable to dodge and was hit. He felt pain and staggered a little.
The dark magical creatures around are still approaching, and the situation is very critical.
“Hmph, come on!” Ye Yu’s eyes flashed, and the void flame in his palm suddenly surged, illuminating the entire basement.
The void flame in Ye Yu’s palm erupted like a volcano, instantly dispelling the haze in the basement and illuminating the dim space as bright as day.
The dancing flames were like greedy beasts, licking the surrounding air and making crackling sounds.
With a thought, the flames quickly condensed into a solid barrier, blocking out those ferocious dark magical creatures.
“Is this all you can do? That’s too weak!” Ye Yu looked at the dark creatures that were restless outside the flame shield, with a hint of disdain on his lips.
The embarrassment of being ambushed just now was swept away, and he felt a surge of heroic fighting spirit in his body, like an unparalleled god of war.
However, these dark magical creatures are obviously not easy to deal with.
Seeing that they could not break through the flame defense by fighting alone, they began to unite in an organized manner, and dark energy flowed among them, forming an even more powerful shock wave.
The shock wave hit the flame shield hard, stirring up circles of energy ripples visible to the naked eye. Ye Yu could clearly feel that the shield was crumbling and groaning under the heavy burden.
“Tsk, it seems that I can’t just be a turtle shell!” Ye Yu frowned, realizing that blindly defending was not a solution.
His eyes fixed, and the flames of the void instantly became violent under his control. The flames were no longer just a defensive barrier, but turned into burning whips of fire, lashing towards the dark creatures like nimble poisonous snakes; or they turned into flaming hammers, smashing down on the creatures with the momentum of destroying the world.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” A series of dull impact sounds rang out in the basement, and each impact was accompanied by the wailing of dark magical creatures.
The aftermath of the battle shook the entire basement, and dust from the walls fell down, forming a thin mist in the air.
At this moment, Ye Yu noticed that the dark magical creatures that were hit by the flames did not seem to disappear completely, but instead turned into black mist.
And this mist was drifting towards a certain direction deep in the basement.
“This is…” He was puzzled and was about to investigate further when a low laugh came from the darkness: “Hehehe… Interesting, you really have some skills. But the game has just begun…”
Ye Yu narrowed his eyes and observed the creatures that turned into black mist.
They seemed to be instinctively afraid of something, and they were not dispersing very fast, as if they were avoiding something.
Ye Yu had a flash of inspiration and remembered that in his reincarnation memories, he seemed to have seen similar dark creatures. They were afraid of an ancient magic rune!
Ye Yu got down to work right away. He took out a handful of special magic powder from the storage space. It was something he had prepared when he was bored, according to the recipe he remembered.
He took a deep breath, recalled the complex patterns of the runes, dipped his fingers in magic powder, and quickly drew on the ground.
As the last stroke was completed, the rune glowed brightly, like a miniature sun rising in the basement.
The drifting black mist made a sharp hissing sound and quickly dissipated like ice and snow encountering a raging fire, disappearing without a trace.
“Done! As expected of me, this operation is simply awesome!” Ye Yu clapped his hands and boasted proudly.
The crisis was over, and he felt a sense of accomplishment, as if he had just finished a game.
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came from afar, and Macao appeared at the entrance of the basement, staring at Ye Yu with a vigilant look.
“What’s going on? I heard some noise over here.” He glanced at the glowing magic runes on the ground, then looked at the dissipating black mist around him. “Is this… all your doing?”
Ye Yu shrugged, spread his hands, and said innocently: “I was just fighting back in self-defense. If you don’t believe me, just look, I have eliminated all these dark creatures.”
Macao didn’t buy it. He snorted coldly, “Who knows if you released it on purpose? What you did before has made it difficult for people to trust you anymore.”
“Hey, hey, hey, this is too unreasonable! I worked so hard to help the guild solve the problem, and you still doubt me?” Ye Yu suddenly felt speechless. Why is this brother so stubborn?
“Hmph, whether it’s true or not remains to be investigated.” Macao said in a firm tone, with no intention of backing down.
“Just investigate, who’s afraid of who?” Ye Yu also got angry. He hated being wrongly accused the most.
The atmosphere between the two was tense and ready to explode…
Suddenly, another voice broke the deadlock, “What happened?”
Ryan ran into the basement panting, and seeing the two people at loggerheads, he quickly stepped forward to try to reconcile.
“What are you doing? We’re all family, let’s talk it out!” He first comforted Macao, then turned to Ye Yu with a hint of concern in his eyes, “Ye Yu, are you okay? I heard a lot of noise over here.”
“I’m fine, it’s just that some people don’t believe me.” Ye Yu shrugged, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Ryan patted Ye Yu’s shoulder, then looked at Macao seriously, “Macao, Ye Yu is not that kind of person. He came to the basement to look for clues about his life experience. I saw it with my own eyes.” He paused and continued, “Think about it, could it be that someone deliberately released these dark creatures to prevent Ye Yu from finding out the truth?”
After hearing what Ryan said, Macao looked at the glowing runes on the ground, then looked at Ye Yu who had a calm expression, and his heart began to waver.
He knew very well that the guild was not a monolithic entity and that someone might be secretly plotting something.
Seeing that Macao’s attitude had softened, Ye Yu didn’t want to continue arguing. He felt that the mystery of his life was right in front of him, and he was eager to solve it.
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to argue with you. I’ll continue looking for clues.” He muttered and plunged into exploration again.
He walked deep into the basement and found a dusty bookshelf with some ancient books on it.
He casually flipped through a few books, most of which were about magic theories and historical records, and did not find anything special.
Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by a thick ancient book in the corner of the bookshelf.
The cover of this book was a bit worn, and there was a name written on it in ancient characters. Although Ye Yu did not recognize these characters, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart.
He carefully took the book down and gently brushed off the dust. The name of his family was written on the cover.
“Oh my god! Could this be the legendary family secret history?” Ye Yu felt like he was playing a puzzle game, his adrenaline soaring.
He excitedly opened the book, and lines of ancient text came into view.
He read quickly and found that the book contained the secrets of his family and a shocking conspiracy that seemed to be closely related to the entire magical world.
He was reading intently when Macao suddenly rushed over and tried to snatch the book from his hand.
“Give me the book!” Macao
Ye Yu was startled by Makao’s behavior and held the book tightly.
“What are you doing? I found this book!” He looked at Macao warily, his heart full of doubts. Why did Macao steal the book?
Makao’s expression turned ferocious. He reached out and grabbed the book again, growling, “I’ll say it again, give me the book!”
Ye Yu held the book tightly and was in a stalemate with Makao.
Chapter 45: The Truth About My Life (Old Version)
Ye Yu tightly grasped the ancient book, his knuckles turning white. He stared at Macao like a young animal guarding its food.
What’s wrong with this old guy today?
It was like eating dynamite. Could it be that this book contains some “unspeakable” secret?
He was confused and itchy, just like a cat scratching a mouse. This ancient book gave him a strong intuition that it must contain the truth about his own life experience!
Macao’s expression was as serious as an old man who had been constipated for years, with veins bulging on his forehead. He stretched out his hand, like a pair of pliers, firmly locking the ancient book in Ye Yu’s hand.
“Give me the book!” Macao growled, with an unquestionable sense of oppression in his voice.
The air was filled with tension, as if a fierce battle was about to break out in the next second.
“What the hell are you doing?” Ye Yu complained. He was not a soft persimmon that could be bullied. He used all his strength to tightly grasp the book. The veins on the back of his hand were exposed, as if shouting: “I won’t give it to you!”
“Give it to me!” Macao exerted force again, and his calloused hands almost snatched the book from Ye Yu’s hands.
Ye Yu only felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and the ancient book was about to fall out of his hand.
“Oh my god! This old man is so strong!” Ye Yu exclaimed in his heart. He felt like he was playing tug-of-war, and the other party was a strongman.
He didn’t understand why Macao did this?
What secrets does this book hold?
His heart was in his throat and his adrenaline was surging, as if he was back to the tense moment when he was ambushed by the enemy while playing PUBG.
The air in the basement seemed to be frozen. It was so quiet that only the sound of each other’s breathing could be heard. It was like the calm before the storm, which made people feel oppressive.
Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Ye Yu’s forehead. He stared at Macao’s ferocious face, his heart full of confusion and vigilance.
He realized that this book must not be taken away by Macao, as it must contain a shocking secret!
The two men were in a stalemate, their muscles tense, like two bulls with red eyes fighting in a silent contest.
At this moment, Macao suddenly said, “You can’t read this book! It will harm you!”
A series of techniques from his reincarnation memories quickly flashed through Ye Yu’s mind, and his body reacted almost instinctively.
He quickly twisted his wrist and cleverly broke free from Macao’s grip, then took a few steps back and held the ancient book tightly behind him.
Macao’s
“I can’t give you this book!” Ye Yu said firmly, his tone full of determination, as if declaring his determination.
His eyes were like sharp eagle eyes, staring at Makao, as if he wanted to penetrate his heart and see the hidden secrets.
Makao was stunned for a moment, his nervous breathing a little disordered. His voice became gentle: “Ye Yu, listen to me, the things hidden in this book are not something you can bear. It will harm you and even threaten the safety of the entire guild!”
Ye Yu frowned slightly, the doubts in his heart did not dissipate, but he could feel Makao’s sincerity.
He nodded slowly, his tone softening slightly. “I understand your concerns, but this book is too important to me. Only by knowing my life story can I better protect myself and the guild.”
Finally, Makao took a deep breath and said slowly: “Okay, I understand your idea. But you must be careful, the contents of the book are not that simple.”
Ye Yu nodded, his heart full of anticipation.
He gently turned the first page of the book, feeling the old paper with his fingertips, as if he could hear the whispers of history.
His eyes wandered between the lines, and the ancient symbols began to become clearer.
“Macao, thank you.” Ye Yu looked up, took a deep breath, and was about to turn the page when he suddenly stopped.
“I finally understand that I should control my own destiny.” Ye Yu’s voice was low and firm, as if he was swearing an oath to the entire basement.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and gently turned the yellowed pages of the book with his fingertips. A dusty smell came to his face, as if an ancient secret was about to be revealed.
On the pages, the ancient words seemed to come alive, jumping before his eyes, telling a long-forgotten family story.
He saw a powerful family, brilliant glory, and…
Top disaster.
It turned out that his family was once a famous guardian of the magic world, but was framed by villains, slandered as an evil force, and eventually fell into decline.
And he is the family’s last hope, shouldering the mission of reviving the family!
“Fuck! This plot is so melodramatic!” Ye Yu couldn’t help but complain, but a surge of blood welled up in his heart.
This is simply the script of The Chosen One, a perfect template for the protagonist!
He looked at Makao and Rian,
Makao and Ryan came forward, eager to know the truth.
Ye Yu told them everything about his family’s experience and his mission.
After hearing this, their expressions changed from shock to admiration, and finally to deep emotion.
“Awesome, brother! This is an epic mission!” Ryan patted Ye Yu’s shoulder excitedly, as if he was also involved in this great adventure.
Macao was in tears, holding Ye Yu’s hand with tears and snot: “Child, you have suffered!” At that scene, those who didn’t know would think that they were father and son who had been separated for many years.
Ye Yu’s heart was filled with pride, as if he was carrying the glory of his family, and he exuded a kingly aura.
He brought Makao and Ryan back to the guild hall, which was still bustling with activity, the sounds of clinking glasses and the laughter of the members intertwined.
“Everyone!” Ye Yu’s voice was loud and firm, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
He told everyone his life story and family mission without reservation.
The guild hall fell into complete silence, everyone deeply shaken by this story.
When Ye Yu finished his story, thunderous applause broke out in the guild hall.
The members who had previously held grudges against Ye Yu were now full of admiration and support for him.
They stepped forward one after another to express their welcome and encouragement.
“Ye Yu, welcome home!”
“We are all your family!”
“Let us fight together!”
Ye Yu felt an unprecedented warmth, a feeling of home, a sense of belonging.
He finally understood that Fairy Tail was not just a guild, but also a big family full of love and tolerance.
His position was completely consolidated at this moment.
Makao walked up to Ye Yu, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly…
Macao’s old face turned red and he coughed, looking like a mouse with its tail caught.
“Um… Ye Yu, I was old and confused before and wronged you. Please don’t take it to heart.” He rubbed his hands, with a hint of embarrassment in his tone, completely different from his previous aggressive appearance.
The guild was in an uproar instantly. This reversal came too fast, like a tornado, catching everyone off guard.
“Fuck, has old guy Makao changed his personality?”
“The sun rises from the west?”
“Could it be that he has been possessed?”
Everyone was talking about it, their eyes flicking back and forth between Ye Yu and Makao, as if they were watching a wonderful drama.
The corners of Ye Yu’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a smile that said “everything is under control”.
“It’s okay. President Makaro said it all. Admitting one’s mistakes and correcting them is the greatest virtue.” He extended his hand generously. “Please give me your guidance in the future.”
Macao grabbed Ye Yu’s hand, excited like a fan who had successfully chased his idol, “That’s a must! From now on you are my real brother!” He patted Ye Yu’s shoulder hard, as if he wanted to pass on all his life’s skills to him.
The guild was suddenly filled with a joyful atmosphere, as festive as the New Year.
The sound of wine glasses clinking became clearer and the laughter became louder, as if celebrating this harmonious moment.
Although he gained the trust of the guild and solved the mystery of his life, Ye Yu knew that this was only the first step in a long journey.
His eyes are cast into the distance, which is full of unknown challenges and adventures.
“System, open the attribute panel!” Ye Yu muttered in his heart.
“Ding! Host: Ye Yu
Rank: C-class wizard
Magic: Void Flame (upgradeable)
Skill: Reincarnation Memory (upgradeable)…”
Ye Yu clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his body. He knew that he needed to become stronger!
The guild members are also full of expectations for the future. They believe that under Ye Yu s leadership, Fairy Tail will become even more glorious!
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed by, and Ye Yu’s heart was filled with alarm.
He turned around suddenly, but saw only an empty corner.
“Who is it?”
Chapter 46: The Visitor Returns: The Mystery Returns (Old Version)
“Who is it?” Ye Yu shouted softly, his hawk-like eyes swept around, but he only saw an empty corner.
Is it an illusion?
A chill ran up his spine from the soles of his feet, making him shiver.
The noisy atmosphere in the guild seemed to be paused, and everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
Ye Yu recalled the mysterious visitor’s previous actions and was filled with doubts.
The visitor’s appearance was too abrupt, and his words revealed strange messages. All signs indicated that he was hiding many secrets.
Ye Yu’s intuition told him that this mysterious visitor was inextricably linked to the mystery of his own life.
He must find him!
“I’m going out for a while.” Ye Yu said this and rushed out of the guild without looking back.
Makao looked at Ye Yu’s departing back, his brows furrowed. “This kid, what’s up with all this mystery?”
Ryan patted Macao’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry.”
Ye Yu ran all the way to the hotel where the visitors were staying.
However, when he arrived breathlessly, the hotel owner told him that the guest had already checked out and left.
“When did you leave?” Ye Yu asked.
The boss glanced at him and waved his hand impatiently, “He left so early in the morning. How would I know when he left? Are you annoying, kid?”
A feeling of powerlessness surged in Ye Yu’s heart, as if he had punched cotton.
The clue is broken…
The noisy sounds and pungent smells around him made him feel extremely irritated.
He wandered aimlessly on the streets like a headless fly.
Suddenly, Ye Yu stopped. “Wait…” he muttered to himself.
Ye Yu slapped his forehead suddenly, and the floodgates of reincarnation memory burst open!
Wait, that guy…
Definitely left something behind!
He remembered that before the visitor left, he seemed to accidentally stroke the table with his finger.
It was an extremely subtle movement that ordinary people would not notice at all, but Ye Yu caught it.
He quickly returned to the hotel. The owner was wiping the table with a rag, cursing: “What a lousy guest! He made such a mess…”
Ye Yu grabbed the rag and looked at the table carefully.
Sure enough, in an inconspicuous corner, a flame mark the size of a fingernail was clearly visible!
This is a special magical mark that can only be detected by people who are extremely sensitive to fire magic.
This mark was not caused by burning, but was a magical residue, similar to a “I was here” mark.
“Kid, what are you doing! That’s my desk!” the boss yelled angrily.
Ye Yu was too lazy to pay attention to him. Based on the remaining magic fluctuations in the mark, he easily determined the visitor’s destination – an abandoned mine on the outskirts of the city!
“Wuhu! Take off!” Ye Yu clenched his fists excitedly and rushed out of the hotel like a cannonball.
The noise and smell around him became a driving force, pushing him forward.
Depressed?
Doesn’t exist!
The abandoned mine was dark and damp, and the air was filled with the smell of decay.
Ye Yu held his breath and sneaked in carefully.
Deep in the mine, a faint blue flame flickered, and the visitor’s figure suddenly appeared before his eyes.
“You’re here after all.” The visitor’s voice was low and hoarse, like sandpaper rubbing against the eardrum.
“Who are you? What do you want to do?” Ye Yu asked straight to the point.
The visitor chuckled. “It doesn’t matter who I am. What matters is that you… are the key.”
“The key? What’s the key?” Ye Yu frowned.
“Flame of the Void?” At this moment, Makao’s voice suddenly sounded.
He stared at Ye Yu with a vigilant look on his face, “There really is something wrong with you! What is going on?”
Ye Yu thought to himself, “Oh no! Why did this guy follow me?”
“Macao, please listen to my explanation…”
“Explain? What else is there to explain?! The ‘Void Flame’ that person just mentioned is the legendary forbidden magic! You actually…”
“Shut up! You know nothing!” Ye Yu roared.
“Enough!” The visitor suddenly shouted, he stepped forward and stood between the two of them, “Some things are not the time to know now…” He turned to Ye Yu,
“Ye Yu! What else do you have to say?” Macao’s eyes were wide open and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, “I…”
Ye Yu’s brain was working rapidly, disassembling and reassembling the visitor’s words in his mind, analyzing the logical loopholes in them like a butcher cutting up an ox.
“‘Those chosen by the Void Flame are destined to be extraordinary’? It sounds impressive, but on second thought, isn’t it just nonsense? Who would say that the person they choose is ordinary? Isn’t this pure self-aggrandizement?” A mocking smile curled his lips, and he stared directly at the visitor, demanding bluntly, “You keep saying that the Void Flame chose me. Then, tell me, what exactly did the Void Flame choose? What is it about me that makes you think I’m ‘destined to be extraordinary’?”
The visitor was speechless for a moment, and a hint of panic appeared in his originally deep eyes.
He obviously didn’t expect that the young man in front of him would be so difficult to deal with, and he exposed his carefully woven lies with just one sentence.
Looking at the speechless look of the visitor, Macao’s heart began to tilt towards Ye Yu.
He scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: “Well… maybe, Ye Yu is not a bad guy after all?”
Hearing Macao’s words, Ye Yu felt a little relieved, as if a misunderstood child was recognized.
Confidence returned to him. He looked at the visitor with disdain, and raised the corner of his mouth. “What? You can’t make up any more stories? With your limited skills, you dare to play tricks on me?”
The visitor was furious and seeing that the situation was not good, he flashed and tried to escape.
“Want to run? No way!” Ye Yu shouted angrily, and the flames of the void surged out instantly, turning into chains of fire that trapped the visitor tightly.
“Lien! Why are you still standing there? Help me!” Ye Yu shouted.
Ryan finally came to his senses and hurried forward, and together with Ye Yu, forced the visitor into a corner.
“Tell me! Who are you? What is your purpose in approaching me?” Ye Yu’s tone was like a judge from hell.
Under the immense pressure, the visitor finally revealed a flaw. He gasped and said, “I… I was just being instructed. Someone asked me to tell you that your parents… didn’t die in an accident, but… were murdered by a mysterious organization!”
When Ye Yu heard this, his pupils suddenly constricted and a nameless fire burned in his chest.
“A mysterious organization? My parents’ death…wasn’t an accident!” He felt his blood boiling, as if he saw the dawn of the truth about his life.
Although he got new clues, Ye Yu knew that there might be a bigger conspiracy behind it.
He watched the visitor being taken away, but his heart could not calm down.
At this moment, he felt that some people in the guild were whispering about him again, and a feeling of unease grew in his heart.
After returning to the guild, Ye Yu found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes. Liu Xue’s concerned look did not make Ye Yu feel at ease, but instead made the haze in his heart even heavier.
At this time, he heard someone whispering behind him: “Have you heard? Ye Yu seems to be with that mysterious man…” He turned around and saw several people avoiding his gaze and hurriedly dispersing.
Ye Yu didn’t say anything, but walked towards his room thoughtfully. He knew that peaceful days…
Chapter 47: New Chapter of Life (Old Version)
…maybe it’s coming to an end.
After returning to the guild, Ye Yu walked straight to the bar, poured himself a full glass of iced juice, and drank it all in one gulp.
The cold liquid slid down my throat, but it couldn’t extinguish the fire burning in my heart.
“Mysterious organization? Ha, I want to see what kind of monsters you are!” He whispered to himself, his tone full of cold murderous intent.
He knew that more efforts would be needed to solve the mystery of his life.
The guild was still bustling, but Ye Yu felt an unprecedented loneliness.
He looked around, and the curious, suspicious, or worried gazes made him feel very uncomfortable.
He knew that he had to prove his innocence as soon as possible in order to regain everyone’s trust.
“It seems that I have to start with that magic ritual.” Ye Yu returned to the room, took out the clues he had collected before, and studied them carefully.
The clues point to a long-forgotten magical ritual – the “Stardust Festival”.
This ritual is said to be able to communicate with the power of the stars and gain great strength, but it is also full of dangers.
Ye Yu searched through all the books in the guild library, but could not find any records about the “Stardust Festival”.
He even mobilized the guild’s intelligence network, but still found nothing.
“Has this ritual really been lost?” Ye Yu felt anxious. The clue ended here. He felt like he had fallen into a maze and couldn’t find the exit.
In the guild, whispers were heard again, and Ye Yu could even hear someone saying something like “There is indeed something wrong with him.”
It felt terrible, like ten thousand ants gnawing at his heart.
The feeling of depression surged like a tide, almost drowning him.
“No, I can’t give up!” Ye Yu stood up suddenly. He suddenly remembered that there was an old magician in the guild who was very knowledgeable. Maybe he knew something…
“Wait, I think I’ve seen this pattern somewhere…”
Ye Yu slammed the table so hard that the new wizard who was secretly watching him almost threw away the beer cup in his hand.
“Great! How could I forget about the old man!” He thought of the old wizard in the guild who was about to turn into ashes – the scholar Rob. He was a walking magic library!
He rushed into Rob’s room in a hurry and almost knocked over the magic potted plant that the old man had carefully cultivated.
“Mr. Rob, help me!” Ye Yu spoke quickly, telling his situation in full.
Old man Rob stroked his long white beard and took a sip of tea slowly. “Don’t be impatient, young man. You can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry.” He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Yu. “You kid is more persistent than I thought.” After speaking, he walked tremblingly to the bookshelf and pulled out a thick magic book from a pile of dusty ancient books. There were several mysterious symbols written in ancient Elvish on the cover.
“This…what is this?!” Ye Yu took the magic book, his hands trembling a little.
He opened the book, and an ancient breath hit him. The book recorded the “Stardust Festival” that he had been searching for!
Detailed ritual steps, spells, and even possible unexpected situations are recorded.
“It’s done! It’s stable now!” Ye Yu clenched his fists excitedly, and the originally dull atmosphere around him seemed to be broken by his excitement.
However, all of this was seen by Arzak.
He walked up to Ye Yu and said in a serious tone, “Are you sure you want to continue investigating? This may bring danger to the guild.”
“I must find out!” Ye Yu refused to back down. “This concerns my life experience and my future path!”
“Your path? Will your so-called path lead us into the abyss as well?” Alzak’s voice rose a few degrees. The surrounding wizards gathered around and watched curiously.
“I…” Ye Yu took a deep breath and was about to explain, but he found that there was a complex emotion flashing in Arzak’s eyes, not just worry, but also…
Suspect?
He paused, his tone slowing down. “Arzak, I understand your concerns, but I promise you, I won’t do anything to harm the guild.”
“Promise? What can you promise?” Arzak pressed on. “There are too many suspicious points about you!”
The argument between the two gradually escalated, and the air around them seemed to freeze. Ye Yu’s eyes were firm.
“I…” Ye Yu started to speak, but suddenly stopped. He recalled some scenes he saw in his reincarnation memories, as well as the secrets hidden in the magic book in his hand…
A bold idea emerged in his mind, “I know the true purpose of the Stardust Festival…”
“The true purpose of the Stardust Festival isn’t just to gain power!” Ye Yu took a deep breath and spoke loudly, “It…it may be related to the future direction of the guild!” He flipped the magic book to a specific page and pointed at the complex constellation map. “Look, the layout of this constellation map corresponds to the location of our guild!”
Arzak frowned and studied the drawings carefully. The doubt in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a hint of shock.
“This…how is this possible?” he muttered to himself, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.
“Don’t believe me? I have something even more exciting!” Ye Yu’s mouth curled up slightly. He knew this script very well. His reincarnation memories were no joke. “To activate the Stardust Festival, we need a special kind of star energy. And this energy… is very likely hidden beneath our guild’s ground!”
Makao, who had always been suspicious of Ye Yu, couldn’t help but come over and carefully observe the pattern on the magic book. His bearded face was full of shock, “This… is this really true? Has our guild been stepping on treasure all this time?”
“Old Ma, what you said makes sense!” Ryan also scratched his head with an expression of sudden enlightenment. His eyes softened when he looked at Ye Yu. Who doesn’t like someone who can bring benefits to themselves?
“I’ve always thought he wasn’t a bad guy!” A new magician echoed, his voice wasn’t loud but loud enough for everyone to hear.
Ye Yu felt the change in the attitudes of those around him, and his heart warmed. “It seems that my personal charm is still very strong!” He silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.
“So,” Ye Yu looked around and said in a steady and powerful voice, “My life experience may be closely related to the future of the guild, and what I have to do is to find the truth and avoid unnecessary crisis!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into warm applause. Those who had doubted Ye Yu before now showed admiration for him. After all, who doesn’t like a prophet who can bring hope to everyone?
Ye Yu took a deep breath. He could feel the atmosphere of trust in the guild, like a fire in winter, warming him. He felt that he was no longer alone.
He turned to look at the ancient magic book. The mysterious symbols on the pages were like hidden codes, waiting for him to decipher.
Suddenly, Ye Yu noticed that on the edge of the star map, there was a tiny pattern that looked like an open mouth, revealing an indescribable weirdness.
He pointed at the pattern and said to everyone, “There’s something wrong with this pattern.”
Just as he finished speaking, a cold wind suddenly blew in from the window, causing the candles in the room to flicker, the light flickering, and the whole room instantly fell into an eerie silence.
Ye Yu felt a chill on his back and subconsciously tightened the magic book in his hand. He felt that beneath the calm surface, there seemed to be a more terrifying truth hidden.
Chapter 48: Life Story Revealed (Old Version)
Ye Yu frowned, his eyes sharp as torches, staring intently at the strange pattern on the magic book.
He could feel that this thing was definitely not a good thing. It might be the key to unlocking the mystery of his life experience, or even Pandora’s box.
He took a deep breath, started up the CPU (central processing unit, here can be translated as “thinking mechanism”) in his brain, and began to work frantically, trying to dig out some useful information from the depths of his memory.
He knew that this was the last step, success or failure depended on it, and he absolutely could not let it go.
The entire guild was shrouded in a tense atmosphere at this moment.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes focused on Ye Yu, not daring to breathe for fear of disturbing him. After all, who doesn’t want to know the true identity of their brother?
This concerns the future of Fairy Tail!
Ye Yu was highly focused, and everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him.
He is like a precision instrument, every cell of his body working frantically to solve the puzzle before him.
The magic book in his hand seemed to sense his determination. The pages trembled slightly and emitted a faint light, as if responding to his call.
Just when Ye Yu was about to touch the edge of the truth, a strange force suddenly descended.
It was like an invisible tentacle, tightly wrapping around Ye Yu’s consciousness, trying to drag him into the endless abyss.
All kinds of bizarre illusions flashed before his eyes rapidly, like a horse-drawn show, dazzling and overwhelming.
He saw his former comrades, each with a hideous face, roaring and roaring at him; he saw the enemies he had fought before, each becoming extremely powerful, as if invincible; he even saw himself, transformed into a cold-blooded demon, ruthlessly reaping the lives of others.
Ye Yu seemed to be in a bizarre dream, lost his way, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.
He felt confused and helpless, with an indescribable sense of oppression rising from deep within his heart, as if an invisible hand was tightly strangling his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He wanted to break free and see the truth, but the mysterious power was like a huge black hole, constantly devouring his consciousness, making him sink deeper and deeper, unable to extricate himself.
Just when Ye Yu was about to get completely lost, he vaguely heard a voice whispering in his ear. The voice seemed familiar, yet out of reach.
“Ye Yu, don’t be confused…” “Oh my god, what the hell is this!” Ye Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyeballs were bloodshot, as if he had been awake for three days and three nights.
Those messy illusions were like low-quality virtual reality (VR) games, with lags, frame drops, and ridiculous plots, which were an insult to his IQ.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Luckily, my buddy is a seasoned reincarnationist. Do you think he can defeat me with such a little trick?
You re dreaming!
“Reincarnation memory, start it for me!” Ye Yu muttered in his heart, and a cool breath instantly flowed through his body, as if a plug-in was turned on, and the central processing unit (CPU) of his brain was overclocked.
The remaining fragments of the illusion quickly reassembled in his mind, like a puzzle, gradually piecing together a complete picture.
“So that’s it!” Ye Yu was so excited that his whole body was shaking and he got goosebumps.
He finally understood everything. It felt as refreshing as finally having a bowel movement after being constipated for three days!
The oppressive atmosphere around him was instantly broken by his sudden excitement, and the air was filled with an indescribable excitement.
“Brothers, I…” Ye Yu was just about to announce the truth when the guild door was kicked open with a bang.
A group of men in black rushed in aggressively. They all looked ferocious and had weapons in their hands. If you didn’t know, you would think they were here to collect debts.
“Ye Yu, your background will bring disaster to the guild! You can’t tell it!” The leading man in black spoke with a cold tone, as if he was a messenger from hell.
“Oh my god, what’s going on? Is this a scam?” Ye Yu was completely confused. This plot wasn’t going in the right direction!
Just as he was about to explain, the group of men in black rushed over and cast all kinds of magic at him.
“Oh my god, are they serious?” Ye Yu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, dodging the attack with a flash.
The scene instantly became chaotic, with magical lights intertwined together, like New Year’s fireworks, gorgeous and colorful, but a bit expensive.
“Stop it!” Ye Yu roared, and the flames of the void erupted instantly, and a scorching breath swept across the entire guild.
The light in his eyes was like a sharp sword, piercing the leading man in black. “Who are you? Why are you stopping me from telling the truth?”
The man in black sneered, “You don’t need to know, you just need to shut up!”
Ye Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a wicked smile, “I’m sorry, my biggest shortcoming is that I talk too much…” “That’s it?” Ye Yu curled his lips in disdain. The strength of this group of men in black was nothing more than a minions among minions in front of him.
He activated his reincarnation memories and recalled his previous experience of defeating bosses in role-playing (RPG) games. With a series of smooth and flowing moves, he defeated the group of men in black and made them look miserable.
“Brother, please spare us! We won’t dare to do it again!” The leader of the men in black had a bruised face and nose and was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy. He looked as cowardly as he could be.
“Want to run? Have you asked my Void Fire?” Ye Yu sneered, and the Void Fire turned into a fire dragon, surrounding the men in black, scaring them so much that they trembled and almost wet their pants.
“Oh, forget it. I don’t want to bother with you guys.” Ye Yu waved his hand, and the fire dragon disappeared instantly. The man in black crawled out of the guild, running faster than a rabbit.
The guild members were stunned, each of them looked like they were struck by lightning, and it took them a long time to react.
They didn’t expect Ye Yu to be so strong, he was simply a human god of war!
“Ye Yu, you are so awesome!” Macao excitedly held Ye Yu’s hand, his eyes flashing with admiration, as if he saw his idol star.
“Ye Yu, you are so handsome!” Bisca’s eyes were shining, and she wanted to rush over and give Ye Yu a warm hug.
Ye Yu stood in front of everyone, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a kingly aura emerged spontaneously.
He cleared his throat and prepared to reveal the truth: “Brothers, actually…”
Ye Yu spoke slowly, telling about his family’s mission to protect Fairy Tail and the purpose of his coming here.
The guild members were stunned as they listened to a fairy tale.
“It turns out Ye Yu is here to help us!”
“Ye Yu, we wronged you!”
“Ye Yu, you are our hero!”
The guild members cheered excitedly, and Ye Yu’s status in the guild soared instantly, faster than a rocket launch.
Just when everyone was immersed in a sea of joy, Ye Yu’s face suddenly changed. He discovered that an important magical item in the guild – the Fairy Heart – was missing!
“Not good…” Ye Yu’s heart sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
Chapter 49: The Missing Fairy Heart (Old Version)
“The fairy heart is gone!” Ye Yu’s voice was not loud, but it exploded in the guild hall like thunder.
The originally noisy guild suddenly became quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.
The air seemed to freeze, and a tense and oppressive atmosphere spread.
Ye Yu’s heart was pounding like a drum, deafening.
The Fairy Heart is the treasure of Fairy Tail. It contains powerful magical power and is of vital importance to the guild.
Its disappearance is no joke!
He immediately activated the information about the Fairy Heart in his reincarnation memories and began to search carefully within the guild.
He searched the bar, under the table, and even the trash can, searching every corner for any clues.
The guild members looked at each other and whispered.
“Why is the Fairy Heart gone?”
“No way? Such an important thing…”
“Could it be that someone stole it?”
The seeds of doubt spread silently among the crowd, and some eyes began to drift towards Ye Yu intentionally or unintentionally.
After all, he had just become the focus of the guild, and now the Fairy Heart was missing. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Ye Yu was keenly aware of these gazes and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Just then, the guild enforcer Yego appeared.
He is tall and strong, with a serious face and a stern expression, like a moving Iron Man.
In his hand, he held a piece of parchment with the Goblin Heart drawn on it, and…
Ye Yu’s portrait!
“Ye Yu,” Yego’s voice was as cold as the north wind in winter. “You are suspected of stealing the guild’s important magical item – the Fairy Heart. Now I am arresting you as a law enforcer!”
“What?!” Ye Yu was stunned. What was going on?
“Impossible! How could I steal the fairy’s heart?” Ye Yu immediately retorted, but Yego didn’t listen to his explanation at all.
“We’ve caught you red-handed, and you still want to quibble?” Yego pointed at Ye Yu’s portrait on the parchment and some blurry “evidence” next to it, his tone firm and unquestionable.
Ye Yu took a closer look and found that the “evidence” was actually the fingerprint left by him when he was browsing the magic books in the library. It was deliberately smeared and modified to form “evidence” that he had come into contact with the fairy heart!
“This is a frame-up! Someone is trying to frame me!” Ye Yu roared, but it was like a stone falling into the sea, unable to cause a single ripple.
The guild members around him had already begun pointing fingers at him, and their suspicious looks had turned into contempt and disgust.
I didn t expect Ye Yu to be this kind of person!
“You can only judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart!”
“Stealing the goblin’s heart is an unforgivable crime!”
Ye Yu was surrounded by the crowd, isolated and helpless, as desperate as a trapped beast.
He felt a huge pressure, like a mountain pressing down on his head, making it hard for him to breathe.
His heart was filled with grievances and anger, but he had nowhere to vent them.
At this moment, a clear voice rang out… “I believe Ye Yu!”
“I believe Ye Yu!” Although Wendy’s voice was not loud, it was like a ray of sunshine that penetrated the haze and illuminated the darkness in Ye Yu’s heart.
She is clear
Wendy’s words were like a breeze, quietly blowing away the doubts in the hearts of some guild members.
Their whispers gradually died down, and some began to hesitate, as if weighing Wendy’s words against Yego’s accusations.
A few even nodded in agreement.
“Wendy, thank you.” Ye Yu felt warm in his heart and looked at Wendy with gratitude.
Wendy nodded slightly.
However, at this moment, a familiar and sharp voice suddenly sounded.
“How ridiculous, Wendy, you are too naive! How could a newcomer like Ye Yu be worthy of your trust?” Loki put one hand on his waist and pointed at Ye Yu with a sneer on his face.
Ye Yu turned to look at Loki and immediately understood his intention.
Loki has always disliked him, and now he is taking this opportunity to frame him.
Loki’s words were sharp, and every word was like a needle, piercing Ye Yu’s heart.
“Loki, you are exaggerating!” Ye Yu roared angrily, his fists clenched and veins bulging.
He felt the pressure on him grow heavier, but the anger in his heart also grew stronger.
“Exaggerating?” Loki sneered. “Ye Yu, you know exactly whether you stole the goblin’s heart or not! You’ve only just joined the guild, yet you’ve performed so well. Don’t you know this will make people jealous?”
“My strength is the result of my own hard work. There’s no need for you to be jealous!” Ye Yu showed no sign of weakness, and the tension between the two almost reached its peak.
The surrounding guild members began to talk among themselves, and some were even ready to join the quarrel.
Ye Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, “Loki, who is behind you? Why are you targeting me like this?” Although his voice was low, it echoed in the hall like thunder. Everyone was shocked by this sudden question.
At this moment, Ye Yu’s gaze suddenly became sharp, like a sharp blade, piercing through everyone’s sight and pointing directly at Loki’s heart.
Ye Yu took a deep breath, his brain working rapidly, analyzing the existing “evidence” like a supercomputer.
Wait, this fingerprint…
Something is wrong!
“Law Enforcer Yego, isn’t the clarity of this fingerprint a little too perfect?” Ye Yu pointed at the so-called “evidence” on the parchment, a cold smile curling his lips. “I was browsing books in the library before, and my hands were covered in dust and ink. How could the fingerprint be so clean? It’s obvious that someone deliberately forged it!”
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Some guild members who had originally firmly believed in Yego began to waver, and whispers were heard again.
“It seems… a little strange…”
“So, Ye Yu was wronged?”
“Did we blame him wrongly?”
Yego frowned, and he carefully observed the fingerprints on the parchment, and couldn’t help but feel a little suspicious.
The fingerprint was indeed unusually clean, as if someone had deliberately processed it.
“Even if the evidence is questionable,” Yego said solemnly, “you cannot escape suspicion until the real thief is found. You must be temporarily detained!”
Ye Yu cursed in his heart as “old stubborn man”, but he also knew that he couldn’t explain it clearly now, so he could only accept this result for now.
He was escorted by two guild guards to the guild’s temporary cell.
The guild members looked at his back with complicated expressions.
Some people’s eyes were still full of suspicion, while others had a hint of sympathy and apology.
“Alas, I hope Ye Yu can prove his innocence as soon as possible.”
“If he was really wronged, that would be too pitiful.”
After being locked up in the cell, Ye Yu sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to sort out the whole story.
Loki’s frame-up, Yego’s ruthlessness, and the guild members’ suspicions and discussions all flashed through his mind like scenes from a movie.
“Who is behind this? Why did he steal the fairy’s heart? And why did he frame me?” Ye Yu was puzzled and frowned.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something strange.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside the cell.
A dark shadow flashed by at such a speed that it was almost impossible to catch.
“Who?” Ye Yu shouted in a low voice.
