After the turbulent water waves passed, several figures emerged from the damp cave.
Corwin was lying on the ground against the cave wall, while Lucy and Kana were on the other side, coughing dizzily.
Uncomfortably coughing up the water in her nose and trachea, Kana shook her head still dizzy, and then complained to Lucy who was not far away from her, "Xiaolu! What's wrong with you, a star spirit? You can't tell the difference between us and the enemy.
?"
At this time, Lucy's symptoms were much milder. She was too experienced. After summoning the star spirit, she closed her mouth tightly and pinched her nose with her hands, so she did not choke on the water at this time.
After hearing this, Lucy couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, Kana, that's what Akuya is like..."
Kana shook her head speechlessly, patted her forehead to relieve her dizziness, then quickly glanced around, and finally found Ke Wen lying in the distance.
With a look of surprise in her eyes, Kana exclaimed excitedly, "I, we won!?"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Kewen in the distance suddenly sat up.
Kewen's actions made Lucy and Kana freeze again, and then Lucy quickly shouted in panic, "Aquaya! Quick! Keep attacking!!!"
"Uh-huh..." Akuiya sneered in disgust, but she also raised the water bottle in her arms again.
Lucy quickly reminded Kana loudly, "Quick! Grab something! The waves are coming again!"
"etc!"
Ke Wen's voice suddenly sounded. He wiped the water stains on his face with his left hand, and stretched his right hand forward to stop it. "That's it! That's it, Miss Akuya! The battle is over!"
"It's over?" Lucy was a little confused. "So...are we a failure? Or a success?"
Ke Wen glanced at the two nervous-looking women, then stood up with a chuckle, and raised his hand to press on his chest.
The water stains on the clothes disappeared instantly and the body was clean again.
Snap!
After applauding twice, Ke Wen smiled and said to Lucy and Kana, "Congratulations to you, congratulations to you for successfully passing my test."
"We passed!!?" Kana exclaimed in disbelief.
"Ah, that's right."
Ke Wen nodded, and then said, "I have seen your faith and awareness, and recognized your fighting wisdom, so you passed."
Kana and Lucy were still in disbelief. They looked at each other for a long time before accepting the reality.
Both of them showed excited smiles, stood up quickly, couldn't help but clapped each other's hands, and then cheered loudly.
Akuiya rarely saved face for Lucy today. Seeing that nothing happened without her, she nodded slightly to Kewen and then returned to the "Star Spirit Realm" on her own.
Lucy and Kana came to their senses because of this. Kana quickly rushed to Ke Wen, jumped up, and threw herself on Ke Wen.
Holding Kewen's neck with both hands, Kana laughed and said, "Kewen! Thank you this time! I'll give you a reward!"
After finishing her words, Kana suddenly stuck her head in and kissed Ke Wen forcefully on the mouth.
After feeling the stiffness of Ke Wen's body, Kana smiled and let go of her hands, jumped over and grabbed Lucy and urged, "Let's go, little Lulu! Let's go to the next trial!"
"Oh, oh!" Lucy responded happily, then turned back and waved to Kewen, "Thanks, Kewen! See you later!"
The sound of joyful celebration faded away. Ke Wen watched the two women leave and couldn't help but chuckle.
Soon, the smile on Ke Wen's face completely disappeared, and he teleported outside the passage, looking up at the small island in the canopy of the tree.
After a while, he whispered, "It's coming..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a reaction suddenly appeared in the emblem.
Summoning the 'Magic Screen', connecting the communications, Ulrudiya's figure immediately appeared on the screen.
At this time, Ulrudiya was in a bathroom, her fair and attractive body half hidden under the sink.
Ulrudiya's face was very anxious. After discovering that the communication was connected, she immediately whispered, "Kewen! I finally found an opportunity to contact you under the excuse of taking a bath!"
"Listen! The 'Devil's Heart' is about to arrive at your guild's holy land! Hurry up and organize your people to retreat!"
After hearing this, Ke Wen did not show any surprise, but instead asked, "Are you here too?"
Ulrudiya looked helpless, "There is no way. There is a child among them. She found me with her magic ability, so I can only show up and join them."
Ke Wen nodded and then said, "Okay, I understand the matter. Don't worry about us. Just end the communication to avoid exposing yourself."
"Are you okay?" Ulrudiya said worriedly, "Not including me, the other six 'Seven Families of Purgatory' have arrived! There are also the vice-president and many ordinary magicians!"
"No problem." Ke Wen smiled and said, "Let's do this for now, hide yourself."
Ulrudiya looked at Kewen through the screen, then nodded silently and hung up the communication.
Ke Wen took a deep breath and then walked to the rest area.
Soon after, he saw others in the lounge area.
Erza and Mira have completed their 'examiner' tasks and are resting in the rest area. In addition, there is the team of Lisanna and Jubian. They failed to pass the first level of the assessment and are lying weakly on the table.
Lost.
Ke Wen's appearance attracted the attention of the four people, and they all greeted him.
After responding, Ke Wen looked at Lisanna who was pouting, and couldn't help but smile and asked, "Failed?"
"Yeah..."
Lisanna secretly glanced at Erza, then sighed, "Erza is indeed too powerful."
"You guys are pretty good too."
Erza praised seriously, "Jubian's magic is very comprehensive, good in offense, defense and support. As for Lisanna, you also surprised me. Unknowingly, your strength has improved to such an extent."
.”
"Brother Kewen helped me." Lisanna responded weakly, then sighed again and lay on the table.
Ke Wen looked at Erza in a funny way, secretly feeling bad for Jubian and Lisanna. After all, Erza was the only one among all the 'examiners' who didn't know what it meant to be merciful or to be accommodating.
that.
At this time, Mira put down the palm that had been covering her left cheek, and the sight revealed made Ke Wen couldn't help but feel funny.
"Mira?" Ke Wen pointed to the other person's swollen cheek, "How did you do it?"
"Oh~ It's Elfman."
"Speaking of which..." Erza took over the topic, "How did Mira, Elfman and Abba Green pass the test from you?"
Mira smiled bitterly and explained in a dumbfounded way, "They almost failed at that time, but Abba Green suddenly jumped out and said that she was pregnant with Elfman's child..."
“Child, kid, kid, kid—?”
Erza and Lisanna exclaimed at the same time, and Jubian's face turned red instantly, wondering what else he was thinking about.
"Really?" Mira said with a bitter smile, "I had the same reaction as you at the time. Because I was so surprised, they gave me a hard blow."
"Wait! Wait!" Erza suddenly became energetic and said enthusiastically, "That's not important! I mean! Do they really have a child!?"
"How is that possible..." Lisanna smiled and said, "Erza, you really take it seriously. That's obviously a lie to my sister."
"Is that so..." Erza showed a disappointed expression.
Ke Wen smiled and listened for a long time. Then he took out the swelling potion from his pocket, handed it to Mira and asked, "What about the other groups? Who else passed?"
"Natsu passed Gildarts' test."
Lisanna replied, "Then Philid and Bigslow lost to Gajeel and Lebby, and Gray and Leo defeated Wendy and Mester."
Ke Wen suddenly nodded. It seemed that even with his intervention, the plot remained unchanged.
"By the way." Erza asked everyone, "Have you seen Wendy? Their group has never come to gather."
Everyone shook their heads.
Ke Wen let go of his sense of magic and discovered Wendy's aura and said, "They are still on the island, on the beach."
At this time, Ke Wen's expression suddenly became solemn, but after he let go of his perception, he felt that a strange magical aura was secretly landing on the island. He did not expect that the 'Devil's Heart' would arrive so quickly.
"What's wrong Coven?"
Erza noticed the change in Coven's expression and immediately asked, "What happened?"
"Prepare for war!"
Ke Wen took out the flare from his pocket, and after activating it, the red flare quickly rose into the air.
"War!?" Erza instantly put on her armor and asked seriously, "Where is the enemy!?"
Kewen responded while sensing, "A lot! We are landing on the island!"
After saying that, Ke Wen immediately took out a lot of potions from his pocket and said seriously, "Divide the potions! You'd better not disperse from now on! Be ready to fight at any time! I'll help others!"
Without waiting for the four women to respond, Ke Wen instantly turned into a bolt of thunder and rose directly into the sky.
Hovering over the island, Kewen let go of his magic perception with all his strength and captured the breaths in his mind.
Afterwards, Kewen raised his hands to the sky and recited a mantra from his mouth.
Rumble——
The clear sky suddenly changed its appearance, and white clouds began to gather from all directions high in the sky above Tianlang Island. Then, the white clouds were quickly immersed in black.
Thunder snakes rolled wantonly in the clouds, occasionally dispersing the shadows on the island for a moment.
Kewen closed his eyes, like a radar, marking all incoming enemies in his mind.
After a moment, there was no more magical reaction in his perception. Ke Wen suddenly opened his eyes and pressed down his raised hands with great force.
boom--
The thunder gathered into a loud noise that shook the earth.
Countless thunders were one step ahead of the sound, suddenly emerged from the dark clouds, searched for the target marked by Ke Wen, and plummeted from the sky...
