buzzing.
Almost simultaneously, several house-sized carnivorous plants burst open from the ground, their gaping mouths spitting out saliva, locking onto Erza.
Cosmos, who uses plant magic, took a step forward and snapped his fingers.
The carnivorous plant's roots suddenly bent and exerted force, its large mouth covered with sharp fangs biting off mercilessly!
The transformation circle lit up, and a flash of sword light appeared. Erza used the high mobility of her Flying Armor to cut off all the branches of the carnivorous plants in an instant at an even faster speed!
Juice splattered, and before the enormous carnivorous flower's head even hit the ground, it was pulled upwards by the sudden reversal of gravity.
"Terrain Effects - Anti-Gravity Zone"
Seeing Erza also floating in mid-air in a state of weightlessness, Yuusuke smiled happily, "I've caught you, Fairy Queen."
It's easy to tell from the fish flag on his shoulder that this guy really likes fish, and he often treats people who need to be executed like fish on a chopping board, torturing them until there is no trace of their bodies!
"Fairies should perish in the forest, grow through the air currents, and nurture plants."
Cosmos's voice sounded quite calm, but the commotion he made was incredibly exaggerated.
As the shadows descended, a giant plant with a diameter of 100 meters suddenly appeared.
Before Erza could recover from the weightlessness, the deep stamen of the flower unleashed a terrifying suction force, sucking her in along with the suspended rubble and the carnivorous plant!
The enormous petals slowly closed, and the entire battlefield fell into a brief silence.
The relentless attacks, coupled with their near-perfect coordination, left the audience breathless, marveling at the executioner's terror, while Erza also felt worried.
But the next second, Erza showed them with her actions that such worries were completely unnecessary.
The surface of the giant, closed plant gleamed with a sharp, razor-like light, then slashed outwards.
Erza landed steadily amidst the falling, neatly cut pieces of plant flesh, her crimson hair fluttering in the wind, her spotted armor gleaming coldly.
"So easily—" Cosmos's pupils suddenly contracted.
This was the first time she had ever seen someone escape unscathed from a growth-inducing plant!
"After all, he's an S-rank mage of the guild; it would be too boring if he didn't have any skills!"
Beside him, the burly Nie Pa curled up a cruel smile.
He seemed to have been prepared, leaping out and creating a fierce gust of wind. His clenched right fist was already covered in highly corrosive purple acid.
Erza reacted swiftly, reaching out to grab the void and raising the heavy shield of her Vajra Armor in front of her.
"Acidic Fist!!"
boom!
The acidic fist slammed straight down on the heavy shield, but the force was weak and couldn't even shake Erza's body in the slightest. However, her brows furrowed.
White smoke billowed, and the popping sound of eggs came from the shield.
Just like solid ice meeting an open flame, the exploding purple liquid was continuously corroding the specially made heavy shield of the Vajra Armor!
"Heh heh, no matter how sturdy the armor, as long as it's metal, it's all gone in a flash before my magic!"
Before Nypa could finish his boastful words, Erza changed tactics at lightning speed, turning around and delivering a powerful flying kick that sent him flying.
Immediately afterwards, the heavy shield transformed into the Thunder Emperor's Spear, with cyan arcs of electricity leaping wildly at its tip.
The lightning cannon was fired rapidly, and it was about to hit Nie Pa, who was flying backwards, when a spinning scythe suddenly attacked from the side.
The moment the two made contact, the powerful lightning beam was completely defeated and vanished into nothingness!
"The scythe wielded by the leader of the Hungry Wolf Knights can nullify magic?" Erza thought to herself, her eyes narrowing slightly.
In a moment of shock, crisis loomed—the rapidly spinning scythe magnified rapidly in the depths of his pupils.
With her superb waist strength, Erza leaned back and barely avoided the sharp blade, but a small strand of her hair was still cut off!
"Terrain Effect - Lava Zone!"
The executioner's attacks were relentless, and crimson lava shattered the ground, spreading rapidly toward the area where Erza stood.
Erza bent her knees and jumped into the air, but suddenly a shower of blue papers came into view.
"Blue paper represents Cupid, a blue paper ball!"
The papers quickly gathered together, forming an impenetrable blue sphere, before sliding down and drifting away.
Erza changed into the Yuu-no-Kage, a kimono-like garment whose fabric was highly elastic, allowing her to disregard the constraints of the paper. A flash of light appeared from the changing magic circle, and a gust of wind scattered and tore apart the paper. She then hurled the Demon-Slaying Spear from the Giant Armor, aiming it directly at Kamika!
After a brief exchange, Erza roughly figured out the magic used by the five and their combat characteristics, and determined which targets to eliminate first.
There was almost no interval between dissolving the blue paper ball and throwing the Evil-Slaying Spear. Just as she expected, Kamika, whose combat power was relatively weak due to the paper itself, was unable to make an effective evasion.
"Gray paper represents a guardian deity; gray paper provides protection!"
Although she managed to piece together a protective shield from gray paper in the first place, it still couldn't withstand the high burst damage of the Evil-Slaying Spear.
The gray paper shield was instantly crushed by the spear tip.
"How—is this possible?!"
Amidst Kamika's incredulous exclamation, an explosion resounded throughout the entire venue, sending sparks flying everywhere!
"Spore Bomb, Lava Belt Love Song, Acid Shock!"
At the same time as the explosion, a combined magical bomb was launched by Cosmos, Nepa, and Yushu.
Rather than helping their teammates, these cold-blooded and ruthless individuals prioritize efficiency, seizing the opportunity when Erza launches an attack and unleashing a barrage of attacks on her while she is in mid-air!
Once the commotion on both sides subsided and the thick smoke dissipated.
Having suffered a severe blow, Kamika lay flat in the deep pit, having lost the ability to fight.
Erza stood on the corroded and riddled ground, panting slightly. Her Adamantine Armor was cracked, with fragments falling from it from time to time, indicating severe battle damage.
"Truly, a beautiful battle of magic offense and defense, relying on constant costume changes and keen and accurate judgment."
In the commentary booth, Chabadi, visibly excited, exclaimed, "Erza not only withstood the combined attack of five executioners, but she even managed to defeat Kamika!"
The seemingly back-and-forth battle actually lasted an extremely short time, so much so that the audience, who had been holding their breath the whole time, only came to their senses at this moment and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"However, her magic power is also severely depleted, and much of her armor is damaged."
Yajima narrowed his eyes, his expression grave, and sighed deeply, "The brutal battle has only just begun—"
Just now, he learned the hidden rules of this survival battle from Pumpkin Head.
That's definitely not good news for Erza personally or for the entire Fairy Tail team.
Following his gaze, we saw that the score screen unique to NPCs on Kamika's body had quietly disappeared from the big screen and had instead appeared above Erza's head!
