So, to stop it, we must simultaneously destroy the magic crystals at the base of all six legs. If we want to destroy it completely, we must also quickly destroy the main body. But..."
But the size of Nirvana is too massive.
The distance between each magic crystal is at least half a city apart, and even flying over, there's no time to destroy the next one after breaking one crystal.
This means at least six people are needed to simultaneously smash six gigantic magic crystals, each the size of a house.
If smashing such large magic crystals is considered easy, then destroying the main body of Nirvana is even harder.
Just imagine the materials used to build a base that can lift up and move an entire city with ease; ordinary attacks surely can't do anything to it.
Wendy and Carla listened, feeling somewhat hopeless. How long would it take to destroy a city itself? Even if it could be done, the Cat Transformation Inn would be wiped out, right?
But even so, we must try.
Rhode said, "May I ask, how strong is your power?"
Robin Lu shook his head: "Sorry, in my current state, I can hardly fight at all. Our entire guild doesn't have a mage that powerful."
"How about the method to control Nirvana? To make it self-destruct, or to stop it, or at least to turn it towards an uninhabited area?"
"If we could do that, we wouldn't have delayed until now."
"True." Rhode frowned, "Then we'll have to see how the Canyon Vanguard performs, and if it doesn't work, we'll have to eliminate the controller and slowly dismantle this giant."
Wendy, with tears still on her face, asked, "Brother Rhode... can it really be done?"
Even if it couldn't be done, Wendy would still go, she just wanted a bit more hope and courage.
"Don't worry, when it comes to causing destruction, you can completely rely on Fairy Tail." Rhode gave Wendy a confident smile, "It's just a city, we'll dismantle it for you right away."
Mira patted Wendy's head, smiling: "That's right, let's get ready to go."
"Mm!"
Rhode made a gesture, and the golem extended its hand, lifting Rhode and Carla, Mira and Wendy to its left and right shoulders respectively.
Then, it dashed towards the direction of Nirvana.
Rhode left with a final remark: "Please prepare to evacuate the people in the village, as long as the people are safe, the village can be rebuilt even if it's gone."
Robin Lu smiled helplessly, waving to them: "Be careful."
...
Just as Rhode thought, the allies hadn't given up on the fight.
The strategy of the head leaving five members behind had a bit of effect, but only bought some time; it didn't achieve his goal of directly eliminating the alliance.
Jura's raw power was indeed too strong.
One-on-one, no one was his match. Perhaps the unique magic of the Oracion Seis could cause him some trouble, but it couldn't change the final outcome.
Moreover, among the members of the Oracion Seis, there were some experts at arousing hatred. Except for Midnight and Cobra, the others were defeated before even reaching the stage of being surrounded.
Here, we must commend Angel.
As a Star Spirit Mage, after demonstrating the 'Two-Body Opening' technique to Lucy, she even revealed that she had killed Blue Pegasus's Kallen.
This enraged Kallen's boyfriend Hibiki, who, despite feeling unwell, got up to assist Lucy.
In the end, defeated under the Super Magic 'Star Map History' that Hibiki temporarily infused into Lucy.
Of course, lasting until the end isn't necessarily a good thing. Cobra and Midnight took the hardest hits, even the head of that purple snake got a bump from Natsu.
However, after the allies took a short break, handled the ambush from the Red Headscarf and White-tailed Eagle guilds, and pursued Nirvana to its location, the magic had already been activated.
The head was controlling Nirvana, continuously heading towards the Cat Transformation Inn, under the pretext of needing to eliminate the Nirubit Race to prevent them from sealing Nirvana again.
The condition of the allies couldn't be considered very good.
One Night from Blue Pegasus was seriously injured, but could still barely fight after using pain relief perfume, while Hibiki's group had slightly recovered.
Leon's team from Lamia Scale had some minor injuries, mainly due to heavy magic consumption. Jura only had some scratches.
Fairy Tail was not doing well; Lucy was severely depleted of Magic Power, Natsu and Erza suffered some snake poison, but fortunately had an antidote prepared, so it wasn't too serious.
However, after Nirvana started moving, Erza was still okay, but Natsu had almost lost the ability to move, relying on Gray for support. Such a massive city even counted as a means of transport for him.
If there's going to be a fight later, we'll have to rely on Hapi.
"It's impressive that you managed to pursue this far… even Midnight was defeated by you?"
At this moment, the head appeared somewhat different from before, with the six face marks gone except one, but no one among the allies noticed this detail.
Jura brought his sword fingers together, pointing at the head: "Stop Nirvana immediately!"
The head laughed: "At this point, do you think it's possible?"
Jura lifted his finger, decisively launching an attack, as a stone pillar emerged from the ground, instantly sending the head flying.
This was followed by dozens of boulder-sized rocks relentlessly battering the head's body, rendering him incapable of counterattacking, almost burying him under rubble.
Jura extended his right hand forward, with his palm facing up, saying solemnly, "Since that's the case, I have no choice but to persuade you through force. Until Nirvana halts, I won't cease my assault."
Jura's headgear had been torn off, revealing a shining bald head symbolizing strength, his imposing presence emanating a Magic Power even Erza would marvel at.
The head spat a mouthful of blood, struggling to maintain composure: "To possess such power, the title of the Ten Wizard Saints is indeed not for show. However… the Oracion Seis must not lose!"
He leapt out from the rubble, dodging the next two stone pillars, about to counterattack when he suddenly felt the earth beneath his feet tremor.
The tremors were so intense as if the ancient buildings nearby seemed to shake along with it.
The head instinctively thought it was Jura's Earth Magic causing the quakes, stumbling before preparing to defend.
But he saw everyone else, including Jura, almost losing their balance.
This was Nirvana itself shaking!
Is someone attacking Nirvana?
From the angle they couldn't see, a colossal purple creature had just rammed into Nirvana's left front leg.
Just as President Robin Lu described, the Canyon Vanguard was smaller than Nirvana's toe.
But even with such a size disparity, when the Canyon Vanguard rammed into Nirvana's (let's call it) ankle, dense cracks extended all the way from the leg to where it was ground-rooted.
Although it didn't manage to break it in one blow, countless large and small fragments fell out from the cracks.
'Fragments' in comparison to the entire city.
Visually, large chunks of rock fell, enough to snap an entire tree upon impact, or create a crater upon hitting the ground.
In the forest, various animals fled in panic, as the existing earthquake had already unsettled them, the resulting rain of stones had them fleeing for their lives.
Just as the Canyon Vanguard was about to continue its attack habitually, using pincers to destroy the target before it, to its surprise, Nirvana's stride didn't pause; the impacted leg proceeded forward, and when its 'foot' was placed down again, the cracks were already healed.
Nirvana's legs were too long, with strides too broad that it flung the Canyon Vanguard off after stepping on it one step.
Luckily, it was flung off early, otherwise, the Canyon Vanguard might have been at risk of a deadly fall should the leg have risen too high.
It climbed back up from the forest, staring at the left foreleg spanning hundreds if not a thousand meters, it was about to continue the chase when it noticed the left middle leg about to step down before it.
Likely, the only thing left in the Canyon Vanguard's mind was Rhode's order to 'demolish,' seeing that the left middle leg was closer, it started a running lunge, colliding again.
Nirvana trembled once more, with cracks covering the entire left middle leg, shedding innumerable construction materials but then began healing again.
The Canyon Vanguard couldn't comprehend why today's tower was so difficult to dismantle, but continued to execute the command it received repeatedly.
The three legs on Nirvana's left side were all rammed by it, and those fighting in the city above only felt a continual tremor, each time originating from a different source, making it impossible to defend against.
The head could scarcely fight effectively, while Jura used his Earth Magic to create stones anchoring his own body, making it nearly impossible for the head to retaliate.
