Chapter 504

【The purple moon hung high in the sky.】

【Eerie moonlight spilled into the village.】

【Under the gaze of countless villagers, Black Natsu turned and walked toward the lookout tower not far away.】

【"Let's go, to destroy the moon."】

【Hearing Black Natsu's words, whether it was Lucy or Gray, all widened their eyes, and the look of horror was beyond words.】

【And contrary to the two, were the villagers waiting here.】

【After hearing that Black Natsu finally decided to go and destroy the moon.】

【They immediately became excited, and countless cheers kept ringing out.】

【"Is it really okay?? ~?"】

【"We have finally been able to wait for the moment when the moon is destroyed."】

【"Haha, we have finally been able to return to normal!"】

【Cheers were endless.】

【"Hey… wait! Wait!"】

【Gray couldn't help but shout at Black Natsu: "Destroy the moon? Are you serious??"】

【"Yeah, this kind of thing… no matter how exaggerated a mage is, it's impossible to do, right??"】

【"Aye, although things are a bit outrageous, as long as it comes from Natsu's mouth, then it must be feasible." Happy crossed his arms and spoke seriously.】

【"Is your brain broken? Little kitty, this kind of thing… this kind of thing…"】

【"Alright, let's go quickly."】

【Before Lucy finished speaking, she was immediately interrupted by Erza, who patted her on the shoulder and walked directly past Lucy.】

【"Hehe, little girl, learn from it, you're still far behind." Mirajane also smiled and walked past Lucy.】

【Lucy's expression was already dull.】

【Looking at the group of people who were acting as if it were true, she felt that her brain seemed to be a bit broken.】

【"Could it be… that these people are telling the truth??"】

【"Is it really that exaggerated??"】

【"This kind of thing??"】

【Soon, the group arrived near the lookout tower.】

【Excitedly, skeptically, looking at Black Natsu who had already climbed onto the lookout tower.】

【"Erza, lend me the Spear of Destruction!"】

【Black Natsu, who had arrived on the high platform, shouted at Erza.】

【"No problem!" Erza extended her palm.】

【As the crimson magic circle unfolded, a two-meter-long spear appeared in Erza's hand.】

【The Spear of Destruction, the matching weapon for Erza's regular armor, the Giant Armor, possesses the special effect of being able to break through darkness and dispel evil.】

【Using it here is just perfect.】

【Taking the spear thrown by Erza, Black Natsu gripped it tightly in his hand.】

【Then he aimed at the eerie purple moon in the sky.】

【After silently estimating the distance.】

【He took a deep breath.】

【Magic power began to circulate!】

【A crimson magic circle unfolded at the magic crystal on the spear.】

【Suddenly! Violent flames erupted fiercely from the bottom of the spear!】

【Boom!!!】

【In just an instant, the spear was thrown by Black Natsu toward the sky.】

【The powerful impact erupted by the massive amount of flames even directly triggered an explosion.】

【The top of the towering lookout tower was directly blown apart.】

【The violent roaring sound shook everyone's eardrums.】

【"Hey, hey~~" Gray's mouth grew wide.】

【"Destroying things again!!" Lucy covered her head with both hands, unable to help but complain.】

【But, those eyes were fixed tightly on the Spear of Destruction that was rising violently.】

【The flames were burning crazily at the tail of the spear, providing powerful power for the spear's continuous ascent!】

【Carrying the spear, it shot straight into the sky at an unimaginable speed!】

【Until! Under everyone's gaze, it inserted straight into the purple moon!】

【Accompanied by dots of light flashing past!】

【Crack… crack, crack…】

【Everyone heard that sound, like glass shattering.】

【Immediately following, the center of the purple moon! Fine cracks gradually began to emerge.】

【"No way?!!"】

【"What kind of joke is this???"】

【Gray and Lucy were almost collapsing, staring at this scene in a daze!】

【Even their hairs stood up involuntarily.】

【It was just… this scene completely overturned their cognition.】

【Crack, crack… crack, crack, crack, crack…】

【The cracks were still spreading, and even spread across the entire purple moon at an astonishing speed.】

【Just when everyone was scratching their heads, horrified and uneasy.】

【The cracks did not stop, but instead spread toward the surrounding sky at an even faster speed.】

【Countless cracks intertwined above everyone's heads.】

【Subsequently…】

【Bang————!!!】

【A crisp shattering sound exploded.】

【Countless fragments scattered from the sky, as if a layer of glass had shattered out of thin air.】

【Behind that shattered glass was the normal silvery-white moon, which was casting down silvery-white moonlight!】

【Lucy reached out her hands in disbelief, touching the countless ice-crystal-like fragments that were falling from the sky around her.】

【"What shattered… wasn't the moon?"】

【"But the sky??"】

【"Hey, hey… what on earth… is going on??" The village chief was also confused, his eyes full of bewilderment.】

【"This island has always been wrapped in a film of evil energy." Erza gave an explanation at this moment.】

【"What??" Gray still didn't understand.】

【"Simply put, it's a kind of waste gas produced by the Moon Drip ritual." Mirajane extended her finger and explained.】

【"These waste gases gradually increased over time, until they formed a crystal-like film in the sky, which is the film of evil energy."】

【"This is also the reason why the moon everyone saw was purple."】

【"Therefore, as long as this film of evil energy is destroyed, this island can be restored to its original brilliance." Erza added.】

【Seeming to confirm Erza's words.】

【On the bodies of the villagers present, dots of brilliance began to flicker.】

【Lucy and the others looked at the villagers curiously.】
