Without making anyone wait any longer, this year’s assessment list was quickly announced.
Chairman Makarov's gaze paused in the crowd and loudly announced, "Natsu Dragneel!"
Natsu, who was qualified to participate for the first time, immediately cheered excitedly.
President Makarov continued to loudly declare "Gray Forpasta!"
"Jubian Rox!"
"Elfman Strauss!"
"Kana Arupelona!"
"Rebbe Macugaden!"
"Philide Justin!"
"And the last one!" President Makarov looked among the crowd, then stared at a member and loudly announced, "Meister Glade!"
After the list was announced, all the members turned up their volume and cheered loudly.
Those who were selected were very proud, while those who were not selected were inevitably disappointed, but they quickly regained their energy and cheered themselves up, hoping to be selected next year.
As for those members who had no idea that they were qualified, they were discussing which candidate to support this time.
For a time, the entire hall was noisy.
President Makarov waited for a moment, then coughed again and spread the sound with magic power.
After everyone gradually calmed down, he said slightly seriously, "Although there are eight candidates this year, I want to emphasize that the qualified candidates this time are those who can become 'super' magicians."
, there is only one in the end!”
The hall fell silent for a moment, then suddenly erupted into an uproar.
"Only one!?" Lucy couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is it so strict!?"
"Quiet."
Ke Wen spread the voice and said, "There are still rules to explain."
"That's right." President Makarov folded his hands and said, "This assessment allows each of you eight candidates to choose a partner to accompany you during the next week's preparation period."
"There are two rules for choosing a partner. First, you must be a member of the guild; second, you cannot choose a 'Super Mage'."
"Finally, the content of the assessment will be announced after arriving at 'Sirius Island', and this time all 'super wizards' will participate to conduct an obstacle test on the selected candidates!"
"That's all I have to say."
As soon as the words fell, the crowd became noisy again, and many people exclaimed in disbelief, shocked that a 'Super Mage' was involved in the obstruction.
…
After the meeting ended, Ke Wen and President Makarov chatted for a while, then left, preparing to return home and seize the time to conduct magic research.
When he was about to walk out of the door, a figure crossed the front.
Gajeel blocked Koven's path and asked in a low voice with a slight complaint, "Hey! What are the qualifications for a candidate!? Why is it that even Jubian is qualified, but I am not!?
"
Kewen stopped and looked at Gajeel, then chuckled and explained, "Because you are too withdrawn. As the face of the guild, how can the 'Super Mage' make outsiders feel that he is inseparable from the guild?"
?”
Hearing this, Gajeel couldn't help but fell silent, and there was a reflective look in his eyes.
Kewen smiled and stepped forward. When he passed by the other party, he raised his hand and patted Gajeel on the shoulder. "If you want to gain qualifications, try to love the guild and your companions more."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kewen passed over the other party and quickly walked out of the guild gate.
However, Gajeel quickly caught up with him, stopped Coven again and asked unconvincedly, "Aren't you lying to me? So what did that Meister Glade say!?"
"What's wrong with Meister?" Ke Wen was slightly stunned.
"That guy is mysterious all day long! I don't see how much he loves the guild!"
Gajeel turned his head and looked inside the guild. After finding no target, he turned back and continued, "Besides, I can smell ill intentions towards the guild from that guy! Why did he get the qualification!?"
"That's it..."
Ke Wen was stunned, then shook his head slightly and responded with a smile, "Okay, but don't tell anyone else about this."
"Okay!" Gajeel immediately assured.
"Mester has a similar identity to you." Ke Wen explained in a low voice, "He is also a member who loves the guild very much. For this reason, he deliberately erased his own memory and infiltrated the 'Council' for the guild.
"
After hearing this, Gajeel, who had no eyebrows, frowned and said in a low voice, "That's not right. Then what's with his malice?"
Ke Wen sighed slightly, "Because he has temporarily forgotten his true identity, and now he thinks he is a spy from the 'Council' who broke into the guild."
Gajeel was stunned, and after thinking for a long time, he finally figured out the cause and effect, and then he couldn't help but asked in shock, "Isn't this going to cause problems? What if he identifies himself as a spy of the 'Council' and causes damage to the guild!"
?”
Kewen was pleased that Gajeel could think of the guild. He raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder again, "Don't worry, the memory can be changed, but the magic power will not lie. Once something goes against the guild, he will
I will subconsciously side with the guild."
After finishing speaking, seeing that Gajeel had no more questions, Kewen couldn't help but smile and walked away again.
…
…
Kewen never closed his eyes for the next three days.
In the second half of the night on the third day, Ke Wen hurriedly hurriedly worked out the 'program' that he had been studying for almost a year.
Directly opening the 'portal' to enter the closed guild, he took the 'master control terminal' inside the bar, passed through the basement, and entered the guild's underground secret room.
At noon the next day, Ke Wen crawled out of the basement.
After drinking three bottles of energy-replenishing 'magic potion' in one breath, Coven informed President Makarov, then went home, packed his things, and left town directly.
In the evening, Ke Wen arrived at the guild’s holy land, ‘Sirius Island’.
Without enough time to rest, he immediately started new work, surrounding the upper and lower islands, and began to arrange magical barriers...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The workload this time is very huge, because Tianrou Island is composed of three parts.
At the bottom is an island base, in which grows a towering tree nearly two hundred meters high, and there is another small island above the tree crown.
Therefore, if you want to arrange a barrier, you must arrange it in a 'combined barrier' manner, including the upper and lower islands and the big tree in the middle.
Fortunately, Kewen had already designed the barrier structure in advance, and he already knew how to arrange the barrier.
Two days later, Ke Wen finished carving the last spell text on the ground and finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He just stood up, but due to the sudden relaxation of his mental strength, his vision suddenly went dark, and he felt a severe dizziness.
His body was very weak, and Kewen finally failed to maintain his balance and sat down on the ground with a 'pop'.
After a long time of relief, the severe dizziness gradually dissipated.
However, there were still many small stars twinkling in front of Kewen's eyes, like 'floaters', and everything he looked at seemed to be blocked by spots.
After all, I haven't slept for six days.
Ke Wen was extremely tired and took out the potion to replenish 'energy' from his pocket, but after thinking about it, he put it back.
After slumping on the ground and continuing to relax for a moment, he slowly stood up, summoned the 'Magic Screen', and walked towards the distance.
After sending a communication to President Makarov, discussing the assessment, and deciding on the location where he would 'guard' the checkpoint, Kewen ended the communication and went directly to the location of the checkpoint.
Half an hour later, Ke Wen arrived at the location where he was going to 'guard' and immediately found a piece of flat land in the cave.
He took out the bedding and managed to find a place for himself to sleep.
He didn't even have time to take off his clothes, so he fell directly into the quilt and fell asleep completely in less than five seconds.
Not long after, a short shadow appeared at the entrance of the cave.
After standing quietly and observing for a moment, the figure slowly left again.
…
…
December 15th at noon.
A wooden sailboat gradually approached the ‘Sirius Island’.
There is a large goblin emblem on the sail. On the first deck, the eight selected candidates gathered with their partners.
At this time, President Makarov jumped onto the fence on the second floor, greeted everyone, and began to explain the specific content of this assessment.
He raised his hand and summoned a 'Magic Information Board' beside him. President Makarov pointed to the simple map on it and said, "This assessment is divided into several stages. In the first stage, you need to land on the island first.
, and at the 'Wolf Smoke Signal', choose one of the eight passages to enter."
"Each channel only allows one group of partners to enter. Only by successfully passing the channel can they be qualified for the second assessment."
"President, what's in the passage?" Lucy couldn't help but ask.
President Makarov smiled when he heard this, and tapped his finger on the 'Information Board', causing different patterns and words to appear in the eight channel patterns on the simple map.
"As you can see." President Makarov said with a smile, "Four of the eight passages are guarded by the 'levels' in the guild, and the four teams that choose the other four paths need to fight each other to win.
who passed."
Hearing this, Lucy couldn't help but exclaimed, "Erza! Covin! Gildarts! And Sister Mira!? Who can beat them!!!"
"No, thick, thick..."
President Makarov chuckled a few times, and then reassured, "Don't worry, if you want to pass the test of the four of them, you don't have to rely solely on strength."
"What should we rely on?" Lucy continued to ask stupidly.
This time, President Makarov did not explain. He just bared his teeth and shook his head with a smile, "Then, you have to rely on your own wisdom to find out."
After speaking, President Makarov waved his short arm vigorously, "I announce! The assessment begins now!"
Everyone was caught off guard. After reacting, they immediately showed off various skills and prepared to cross the ocean that was still some distance away to land on the beach...
