Faust's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in the cockpit.
"Impossible! How is this possible! He severed Troma Arnim's magic cannon with a single strike?"
Just then, a muffled rumbling sound suddenly came from the sky.
On the highest point of the capital city wall, a huge tubular metal device slowly rose.
A blinding red light shone from the front of the device, and a terrifying pulling magic force was rapidly gathering.
"That's the Dragon Lock Cannon!" Nancy pointed in that direction in horror.
The Dragon Lock Cannon's muzzle was already firmly aimed at the Floating Island in the sky.
" Nancy."
Lu Chongwei decisively sheathed his sword.
"Take me up there, as fast as you can."
Nancy didn't hesitate at all; she knew this was a matter of life and death.
It spread its small white wings on its back, and its two tiny claws gripped Lu Chongwei's collar tightly.
"Hurry up!"
"Whoosh--!"
With all her might, Nancy, carrying Lu Chongwei, transformed into a swift streak of light and shot straight into the sky.
They rushed toward the Dragon Lock Cannon at top speed.
Just one second before the Dragon Lock Cannon was about to fire its tractor beam.
Lu Chongwei landed steadily in mid-air directly in front of the Dragon Lock Cannon.
He stood alone, with only a knife, blocking the path of this ultimate weapon capable of destroying two races.
Lu Chongwei placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword, unleashing a violent spiritual pressure from his body, heating the surrounding air to a terrifying degree.
"All things in the universe will turn to ashes."
Lu Chongwei's cold voice echoed in the sky as he prepared to block this earth-shattering attack.
In the distance, Edolas Erza-Natevoka are engaged in a fierce battle in the sky.
She happened to turn her head and saw this scene.
Knightwalker's usually cold and ruthless face finally broke down at this moment.
Her eyes widened, and she almost dropped the Ten Commandments Spear in her hand; she was completely stunned.
He thinks he can stop the Dragon Lock Cannon all by himself?!
"Has he gone mad?!"
Knightwalker cried out in disbelief, his eyes wide with utter astonishment.
She stared at the tiny black figure in the distance, her voice trembling slightly with extreme shock.
"That's the Dragon Lock Cannon! It's the ultimate traction weapon, forged from countless magical powers of the kingdom! Even a giant dragon would be torn to shreds if it stood in its way! How could human strength possibly stop it!"
You have no idea of his power.
A calm yet confident voice rang in her ear.
Erza of Earth-land, holding a longsword, hovers in mid-air.
She watched Lu Chongwei's retreating figure, smiled proudly, and showed no worry in her eyes.
"If Zhongwei says he can stop it, then he can stop it. That's what Fairy Tail Mage all about!"
Meanwhile, on the giant Floating Island directly above the royal capital.
"Bang!"
Gajeel stomped wildly on Panza Lily's chest.
At this moment, Lily was covered in wounds, and the huge Buster Sword had long since shattered into scrap metal. He was panting heavily and had completely lost his fighting ability.
"Hehe! I won!"
Gajeel smugly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
He pointed at Lily on the ground and laughed arrogantly.
"A bet's a bet! From today onwards, you're my cat!"
Just as Gajeel was preparing to show off...
"Ga... Gajeel! Something terrible has happened!"
Happy terrified scream came from beside them.
It flew in mid-air, its little claws pointing tightly at the capital below, its whole body trembling like a sieve.
"Look down there! That huge cannon!"
Gajeel looked in the direction Happy was pointing and his expression changed.
At the highest point of the capital, the massive Dragon Lock Cannon was fully charged, its blinding red light turning half the sky blood red.
And the cannon was pointed directly at the Floating Island beneath their feet!
"What the hell is that thing? And it's targeting us?" Gajeel gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
Lily, who was being trampled underfoot, coughed up a mouthful of blood with difficulty, his eyes filled with despair.
"That's... the Dragon Lock Cannon."
Lily gave a weak laugh and explained.
"This is His Majesty the King's ultimate plan. The Dragon Lock Cannon will fire a powerful traction beam, forcibly pulling this Floating Island and sending it crashing directly into Extalia in the sky."
"What?!" Gajeel and Happy were both shocked.
"His Majesty intends to use this method to annihilate you Earth-land Mage in one fell swoop, and at the same time destroy the Exceed race. When the two massive sources of magic collide and explode, they will be able to secure an inexhaustible supply of Eternal Magic for the kingdom..."
As soon as Lily finished speaking, everyone panicked.
"Are you kidding me! If we really run into each other, the whole guild is doomed!"
Gajeel was so anxious he was jumping up and down. He turned around, wanting to use Dragon Slayer Magic to attack the Magic Crystal beneath his feet.
At this critical moment...
"Look up at the sky, everyone!" Happy shouted.
In the sky, Wendy and Carla were leading a dense army of thousands of Exceed rapidly in.
Those Exceed were afraid, but their eyes remained resolute.
They flew to the edge of the Floating Island, stretched out their tiny claws, and actually tried to use their physical strength to push the island, attempting to change its trajectory before it collided.
" Wendy!" Gajeel shouted.
Wendy, covered in sweat, struggled to push the Magic Crystal. She looked up, about to respond to Gajeel, but suddenly froze.
Not only Wendy, but also Carla, Happy, Gajeel, and all the Exceed, stopped moving at this moment.
They were shocked to see the void between the Dragon Lock Cannon and the Floating Island.
Lu Chongwei stood alone, proudly blocking the Dragon Lock Cannon!
" Zhongwei!" Wendy's eyes reddened.
" Ryujin Jakka!"
Lu Chongwei's furious roar echoed through the sky.
He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, and blazing golden flames shot into the sky, enveloping him like a fiery war god.
"Boom--!!!"
The traction beam of the Dragon Lock Cannon was unleashed with ferocity at that moment!
It was a thick, red beam of light, tens of meters in diameter, carrying a terrifying power capable of tearing space apart, which slammed into Lu Chongwei.
"Stop right there!"
Lu Chongwei did not back down at all. He bravely swung his Ryujin Jakka, slashing at the red tractor beam!
"Bang!!!"
Two terrifying forces collided violently in mid-air.
A ring of air blasts spread outwards, Crush the surrounding clouds.
The air beneath Lu Chongwei's feet was stomped out in distinct white shockwaves.
His muscles bulged, veins popped on his forehead, and he struggled to resist the terrifying force.
" Lu Chongwei! I'm here to help you!"
Nancy let out a shrill scream, clinging tightly to Lu Chongwei's clothes, her white wings flapping wildly behind her as she desperately tried to propel him Lu Chongwei.
