Chapter 240 Forbidden and Death-Slaying God-Slaying Mage
"The divine realm you mentioned, does it include the god Ankhseram?"
After all, he was a transmigrator who understood the entire Fairy Tail universe. After a brief moment of shock, Chess quickly regained his composure.
The strongest enemy they are most likely to face right now is the black dragon Acnologia. Gods and the like are too distant and too mysterious for him and Fairy Tail as a whole.
However, one thing is certain: the power of the gods is definitely superior to that of Acnologia. This can be concluded from the fact that even Acnologia couldn't kill Zeref, who was arbitrarily cursed by the god Ankhseram!
Because there was almost no information, all Chase could do was become stronger in order to deal with the terrifying beings that were "gods" and were beyond the original plot—his deck also contained gods!
This is one of the reasons why he is so passionate about fighting, aside from his personal character.
Therefore, if we can learn about potential enemies from Edchas in advance, it will definitely be the biggest gain from this trip to Edolas!
"You actually know about the forbidden God of Death, buddy? You must be a resident of the divine realm too!"
Upon hearing An Shen's name, Edchez's eyes lit up. "Then what exactly was the 'odd changes, even remains unchanged' rule from before—"
"No, I'm not from the realm of gods. The situation is a bit complicated. First, tell me what your realm of gods is like. Besides Ankhseram, what other gods are there?" Chase asked.
Edchez looked suspicious and cast a strange glance at him.
Chase's eyes widened, and he clenched his fist, which was cracking loudly.
The timid Ed Chess immediately shrank back, and seeing the other person's strong, muscular physique, he had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and obediently provide an answer.
"To be honest, I don't know much. The realm of gods is vast and boundless, and I am just a commoner living at the very bottom."
"The level of magical technology there is far more advanced than that of Edolas. It has many large capital cities, and magic is completely integrated into daily life, becoming an integral part of people's lives."
"Get to the point!" Chase interrupted him directly. What he wanted to know wasn't the appearance or basic situation of the divine realm, at least not the focus right now.
"Ahem, we need to find a starting point first."
Edches scratched his head, inwardly complaining about how fierce he looked, before continuing, "The realm of gods consists of nine continents, each ruled by one of nine supreme beings, who are practically immortal gods."
"This includes Ankhseram, the god of death you just mentioned, as well as the god of time, the god of the sky, the god of fire, and so on."
"Perhaps due to boredom caused by their overwhelming power, they initiated the God-Slaying Plan hundreds of years ago. Some sent their descendants with their own bloodline to lower worlds, some spread ancient books of God-Slaying Magic based on their own power, and some directly selected targets in lower worlds to bestow power upon them."
"Their sole purpose is to get these humans, who possess the power to destroy gods, to try to overthrow them and replace them!"
"
Edchez sighed heavily, a deep sense of powerlessness on his face: "How could humanity possibly annihilate those beings? It's nothing but an arrogant god's game to fool the world."
"So, you, who transmigrated to Edolas, were one of those sent by the gods?" Chase asked instinctively.
"If that's the case, then I can use God-Slaying Magic—."
Speaking of this, Edoches was also extremely frustrated, "I was hit by a magic truck with four front and eight back, and then somehow ended up in Edolas."
Although they are still natives of the Fairy Tail world, the method of time travel can be described as very standard and classic.
In contrast, Lisanna's story is rather novel—she was slapped away by her own brother and snatched from Edolas.
"Damn it! If we hadn't run out of instant noodles at home, would I have had to suffer this undeserved misfortune?!"
Finally having someone to confide in, Edches became quite talkative, "I was thinking of finishing my instant noodles and continuing the battle, to get the Happyeng of the Holy Stone Boy!"
Sacred Stone Boy —
Chase guessed it was most likely some single-player game from the realm of the gods; speaking of which, there were similar computer-like devices in Asland as well.
So it's not surprising anymore.
With this name, it's definitely the Fairy Tail world!
"But you've actually benefited from this misfortune, haven't you?" Chase turned to look at the Fairy Tail guild with its lights on in the distance.
Edches followed his gaze and saw his companion laughing and chatting with the Dark Magician Girl inside the room. Immediately, memories of the happy and lively times in Fairy Tail, as well as those precious adventures, flashed before his eyes.
"Haha, you're right. That god realm is too oppressive! Although Edolas, controlled by the king, isn't much better off, it feels like home here."
Edches's eyes flickered, and he clenched his fist slightly. "That's why it's even more necessary to find a powerful source of magic!"
Although he doesn't have a simple and straightforward cheat code like Chase, as a semi-transmigrator, he still has his own unique skills.
That is advanced magical knowledge and concepts.
With this, he, who could barely be considered a tech geek in the divine realm, perfected and improved devices such as the magical teleportation device, the magical positioning watch, and the magical energy cannon, so that Fairy Tail, which was fighting against the kingdom, would no longer suffer any casualties!
If not for the constraints of limited magic power, defeating the king's army would only be a matter of time!
Okay, judging from his tone, this guy also has the "both parents dead" buff.
After silently complaining to himself, Chase turned his attention back to the main topic and began analyzing Edchase's descriptions of the gods in the divine realm.
The so-called "Godslaying Plan" is clearly manifested in Aisland.
The Twelve Shields of Dimalia, who can use time-destroying magic and receive the soul of the God of Time, should correspond to the "Descendant of God";
The Fire God-Slaying Magic that Hades, the guild master of Demon Heart, taught Zankro, and the Sky God-Slaying Magic that Sheria later learned from the Serpent Scales, both follow the ancient book route.
As for those who directly select targets in the lower worlds to bestow power, for some reason, a lifeless black hair suddenly appeared in Chase's mind.
"What conditions need to be met to be chosen by God, as you just mentioned?" Chase asked.
Upon hearing this, Ed Chester was immediately startled and hurriedly warned, "Don't you dare think about such dangerous things!"
"Humans must pay an extremely heavy price to obtain the power of gods. On my continent, there once was a fire mage with exceptional talent who was granted power by the Flame God, but he turned into a monstrous madman who could only burn everything to ashes, and in the end, he burned himself to death!"
After a brief encounter, he roughly understood the reckless nature of the burly version of himself in front of him, and therefore exaggerated the matter to a great extent.
Of course, that's true.
"Don't worry, I know more about divine power than you do," Chase said with a calm smile.
Although he had never met him, he firmly believed that his own god was no less powerful than any Ankhseram!
However, I really didn't expect that the Ankhseram curse on Zeref would come from this. According to this, wouldn't Zeref be a forbidden and death-destroying god mage?
"To forcibly bestow power (a curse) without anyone's consent—what arrogance this so-called god possesses!"
Edchas stared intently at Chase, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Chase wasn't as interested in the power of the gods as he had imagined.
"Well then, buddy, can you tell me about your world?" Edchez asked curiously.
"In my world, although the technology is very advanced, there is no magic or other such magical thing."
"It is impolite not to reciprocate," Chess said, organizing his thoughts slightly before shifting to the less important part and beginning to recount the era in which he lived.
The two decided to sit down on the edge of the floating island and, truly in front of each other, began to talk about the basic situation of their respective worlds.
The next day, after a night's rest, everyone gathered in front of the vine-covered building.
Edchez and the others originally planned to explore the sixth altar today, and then return to develop a strategy while collecting magic crystals.
But this was disrupted by Chase's words, "No need for that, let me handle it."
Since he was already there, he also wanted to see what exactly was the source of the enormous magical power detected by Edches's team!
Anyway, it was just a quick thing to do. "Hey, Chess, where's Dark Magician Girl? I haven't seen her today."
On the way to the altar, Edfried clung to Chess like a leech.
"She drank so much fruit wine last night that her master locked her up when she got home."
Perhaps because he had talked a lot about other worlds with Edchace last night, looking at Edchace's fairly gentlemanly face now, Edchace inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu for Sanji from One Piece.
"I'm telling you, it's time you changed this bad habit of falling in love with every girl you meet," Edgildas sighed, rubbing his forehead.
Thank goodness Lucy didn't come along, otherwise she would be complaining: This womanizing old man is actually lecturing Fried on how to pick up girls!
"That's terrible, Fried. Can't you learn from Elfman?" Ed Abram Greene chimed in.
"He's starting to talk about how great my boyfriend is again—" Ed Biguslow shook his head helplessly.
Roar! !
Suddenly, the roar of a ferocious beast rang out from ahead, interrupting their conversation.
?
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the location of the sixth altar.
Similar to yesterday's place, this place is also a scene of ruins and desolation. However, the original blue-striped giant python has turned into a red-eyed black bear that is nearly ten meters long and has explosive muscles all over its body!
"Ahhh! It's here!"
Edchas' performance remained consistent, swiftly protecting everyone in front of him.
In contrast, while Eddildars and the others didn't appear too badly off, they still looked tense and subconsciously took a step back.
Without powerful magical artifacts to support them, they simply couldn't withstand such a dominant, giant magical beast!
Therefore, Chase, who was standing at the very front of the group, naturally became the one to stick his neck out.
Seeing no fear in the eyes of this tiny human, the red-eyed black bear felt its dominant position challenged. It roared, put all four paws on the ground, and ran wildly toward this direction.
The ground around them trembled violently and rumbled as that primal force erupted.
A gust of wind carrying a foul stench swept over him, and in an instant, a red-eyed black bear with gaping, gaping maw appeared before Chase.
It cast a shadow.
"Compared to Aisland, the monsters here have such poor eyesight—"
As the magic circle rotated, Chess, who was holding the right wrist of the sealed one, leaped up and threw a punch despite the giant paw of the red-eyed black bear slamming down on him.
boom! !
The whistling wind from the punch exploded like a cannonball.
Immediately afterwards, the shadows dissipated, and bright sunlight shone down again, illuminating Edchas and the others who were so shocked that their eyes seemed to pop out of their sockets.
"I... I didn't see that wrong, did I? One punch and the monster guarding this place was sent flying?"
"Hey, hey, that's no ordinary magical beast!"
"You call this 'just average'?!"
Edgildars felt a strange sense of loss, as if he wondered what they had been busy with for the past six months.
"Hahaha! Not bad, not bad." Chase laughed heartily.
Normally he'd be too lazy to show off, but these people around him were all familiar companions from another world, so he felt pretty good. "No matter what, they've been a huge help. Now it's up to me and my senior!" Edragas couldn't wait to prove himself.
Being able to fight doesn't mean being able to break the altar's magic circle; the Fairy Tail members on their side are also very capable!
Unfortunately, this is also Chase's area of expertise.
"Your method is way too slow," Chase said with a smile, revealing the card held between his fingers.
Amidst the dazzling light of the magic circle, the dark mage, holding a staff in both hands, slowly walked out.
After a brief introduction, under the bewildered gaze of Edragas, the Dark Mage approached the ancient altar.
The staff in his hand tapped lightly.
hum!
A dazzling purple light shone, condensing into the unique barrier characters of the spell.
Since obtaining the spellbook containing a wealth of magical information from Ferid, the Dark Mage has long since grasped the essence of Fairy Tail magic and possesses a high level of expertise in this area.
Moreover, the magic set on the altar was not complicated, so in just over ten minutes, the sealing array shattered and dissipated into countless points of light, just like yesterday!
Edragas and the others, who witnessed the entire process, were completely stunned and stood there speechless for a long time.
No wonder this guy can cross two continents in half a day. At this terrifying speed, he could complete all their work in the time it takes to have an afternoon tea!
"Dude, tell me the truth, are you even human?" Edches nudged Chase and couldn't help but ask.
After a long chat last night, he and Chess got much closer.
"That's nothing in Asland, there are plenty of guys better than me!" Chase said.
That's the truth. With his current level, he wouldn't even be considered top-tier in Esland!
"Just how terrible is that world?"
Edchez felt a little uneasy just thinking about it.
Looking at it this way, it's really lucky to have been able to travel to Edolas!
"Haha! Don't be discouraged, he's still Chase after all."
Edgildars patted Edches on the shoulder with a smile, though his tone was somewhat sarcastic.
So it turns out this calm and collected uncle has his less serious moments too.
"Oh, right, our Gildarts could do the same thing," Chase added mercilessly.
Upon hearing this, Eddildar, who had been shot in the knee, put his hands on the ground and could no longer laugh.
Having witnessed Chase's power and reliability, Ed's team had no more reservations and took him directly to the location of the next, and final, ancient altar.
The same procedure applies.
Chase punched the monster guarding the place away, and the Dark Mage followed up to break the seal. The whole process was done in one go.
Yu Weng Yu!!
The moment the altar's magic array shattered, seven white beams of light, imbued with immense magical power, shot into the sky from different directions, causing the entire forest to tremble violently!
White light intertwined and swirled high in the sky, forming a super-large ancient magic array with a diameter of several thousand meters.
Then, a scene that horrified everyone present, including Chase, unfolded.
The sky suddenly darkened, and an enormous white foot, seemingly endless, appeared from behind the magic circle, stomping down and instantly obliterating most of the forest!
