Chapter 455 Don’t break the boundary between life and death, understand? (Ch 455)

“Well, it can be said that without the first generation, there would be no Fairy Tail. It was the first generation who first proposed the establishment of Fairy Tail.
In April X686, the first generation, with the help of three other companions, built the first guild building in Magnolia, which was the guild building before we transformed the guild, and officially established Fairy Tail.
After the death of the first president was announced in X697, Precht Gelberg, one of the four founders, became the second president of the guild.
In X736, 48 years ago, the second-generation chairman handed over the position of chairman to my grandfather who was 40 years old at the time.
So my grandfather became the third-generation president and has been in office until now.”
Seeing that no one knew the history of the guild, Laxus sighed and gave everyone a brief explanation of the guild’s history.
When he was a child, because his grandfather was the president of the guild, he liked to read things related to the guild. He remembered the history of the guild very clearly and could recite the history of the guild without thinking.
“Fairy Tail was founded in April X686, and this year is X784. Does this mean that Fairy Tail has been established for 98 years?”
Kongno calculated the time and was shocked to find that the guild’s history was almost a hundred years old.
When the others heard her say this, they were also surprised.
There are many guilds on this continent, but they have never heard of any guild that has been established for nearly a hundred years.
“Since it has such a long history, why haven’t we heard any relevant news?”
Sorano asked curiously.
The others also looked at Laxus with some confusion. If other guilds had such a long history, they would probably want to let the whole world know.
Only Fairy Tail has such a long history, but no related news has been heard at all.
“Our guild does not need to publicize these things, nor does it focus on them.
And even without the publicity, aren’t we number one in the Kingdom of Fiore?”
Laxus said proudly.
After listening to this, everyone couldn’t help but nodded in agreement.
Everyone in the guild really doesn’t pay much attention to this aspect, otherwise they wouldn’t have known about it now. They are more concerned about their guildmates.
“What are you talking about?”
At this time, Noah and Mavis had finished teaching and came over, and Noah asked everyone.
“We talked about the history of the guild.”
Urrutia said with a smile.
“The history of the guild? This reminds me of the time before the guild was founded.”
After hearing what Urrutia said, Mavis’ eyes became a little dazed, and she recalled what happened before the establishment of the guild.
“What happened then?”
Sorono asked curiously, and the others looked at Mavis curiously.
“A lot of things happened back then. I’ll tell you slowly when I have time later. For now, let’s transform Tianlang Island first.”
Mavis said to everyone with a smile.
After she finished speaking, she pointed to the screen next to her, and everyone saw that it was the Sirius Island transformation plan that Noah had taken out earlier, but now some parts of this map had been changed.
“Hey, First Generation, have you already learned ancient writings?”
Sorono realized that the screen was floating next to Mavis, not next to Noah, so he asked.
“Well, the idea of ​​this magic is very novel, but it’s not very difficult. After listening to Noah’s teachings, I tried it and it worked.”
Mavis said calmly.
Kong Nai opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say. The others had a similar expression.
They were there just now, but they couldn’t even understand it, let alone learn it. Now that Mavis said she had learned it, they suddenly felt greatly shocked.
There’s already a Noah who can definitely be called a pervert, and now there’s another one?
“The first generation helped me improve the content of the plan. Now the transformation plan of Tianlang Island will be better.”
Seeing them like this, Noah quickly spoke to divert everyone’s attention.
“However, Noah’s transformation plan this time is a bit large, so everyone will need to work harder.”
Mavis pointed to the plan and said.
“Large scale? How big?”
Erza asked curiously.
“The scope of the transformation I set is a 100-kilometer radius centered on Tianlang Island.”
As soon as Noah finished speaking, everyone opened their mouths and looked at Noah. Mirajane even asked subconsciously:
“Noah, you’re not wrong, are you? A radius of 100 kilometers?”
“You are right, it is a 100-kilometer radius.”
Noah nodded seriously, and then explained to everyone’s “are you crazy?” expressions:
“Of course, the most important transformation area is Sirius Island. The places outside Sirius Island are just set up with nodes to collect the surrounding magic power and then transmit it to Sirius Island.
The first generation and I calculated that places outside Sirius Island would need about 108 nodes, 36 main nodes and 72 auxiliary nodes.
The main node is responsible for transmission, and the auxiliary node is responsible for absorbing the surrounding magic power.”
After hearing Noah’s words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if they didn’t need to deploy the nodes densely. The worst thing was that they would need to deploy a large number of nodes, which would be too much work.
However, it would not be easy to set up nodes that could affect such a large area, so they were mentally prepared.
“So when do we start setting up?”
Erza asked.
“Now, let’s transform Tianlang Island first. I have prepared enough materials for this transformation.”
After Noah finished speaking, he took out a stack of magic cards from his arms, and then released a large amount of materials from them.
These were collected by him through various channels in recent years. In order to avoid being out of materials when needed, he prepared several times the amount originally planned.
When everyone saw the materials sorted into categories and piled up like mountains, they immediately knew that Noah had been preparing for this transformation for a long time.
So everyone started to take action. Noah was responsible for assembling the processed materials and providing magic power to Mavis.
Mavis is now in ghost state and has very little magic power of her own, so she needs to be provided by Noah.
Mavis was responsible for directing everyone using the ancient documents she had just learned to bury the device assembled by Noah about 10 meters underground at the designated location on Sirius Island.
The others acted according to Mavis’s instructions.
They are all wizards, and each of them is very powerful. They can move, dig, and bury devices very quickly. Noah even divided his thoughts into several bodies to assemble them.
So by the evening, the transformation of Sirius Island had reached one-third of the plan.
“Everyone has worked hard, come and have dinner first.”
Noah invited everyone to come for dinner, and everyone sat down on the wooden chairs Noah had made.
“These are all famous delicacies from various places. I just packed them up and brought them back.”
Noah pointed to the wooden table in front of everyone, which was filled with delicious and fragrant pastries.
Naturally, everyone was not polite to Noah and started eating with their bowls and chopsticks.
When Mavis saw the pastries on the table, her eyes suddenly lit up. She reached out to pick them up, but passed right through them.
She didn’t give up and reached out her hand again, but every time she tried, her hand went through the pastries.
Suddenly she puffed up her face and looked at Noah with resentment. It was really a torture for her that she could see him but couldn’t eat him.
Noah could only touch the back of his head and smiled awkwardly at Mavis.
“By the way, what is the current status of the first generation?”
Sorono asked Noah and Mavis.
She had been very curious before, but a series of things left her no time to ask. Now that she had time, of course she had to ask.
The others also looked at Noah and Mavis as they ate.
“I am in ghost form now. Only people with the guild emblem can see me.”
Mavis said to everyone.
“Ghost state? I remember Noah said the first generation’s state was very special, not alive, but not dead either.”
Mirajane said.
“Hmm? You know my situation?”
Mavis asked, looking at Noah.
“Grandpa didn’t tell me too much about you. I just found some information about you before you died from the guild’s files.
But I have learned so much magic knowledge and have done a lot of research on life-related content, and I can see that your current state is very strange, neither alive nor dead.”
Noah answered while looking at Mavis.
“Do you study life?”
Mavis’ expression became very serious when she heard what Noah said.
She stared into Noah’s eyes, and Noah looked at her calmly and replied:
“My research is all conducted within a safe range and does not cross the line between life and death. It can even be said that my research has completely avoided that aspect.”
When everyone saw how serious Mavis’s expression was, they stopped eating and looked at the two worriedly.
Mavis looked at Noah for a long time before her expression slowly relaxed:
“Remember not to break the boundary between life and death, okay?”
She was very worried that Noah would go astray and end up regretting his life.
“Of course, I pay attention to my own safety.”
Noah answered seriously.
“That’s good.”
Mavis let out a long breath, then turned back to look at the others:
“There are many secrets about my condition that I cannot reveal. I will tell you later if I can.”
Everyone nodded. Seeing Mavis’s expression just now, they knew that the matter was not simple, so they did not ask any more questions.
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. No one spoke and just focused on eating.
“I saw a lot of very large creatures on Tianlang Island this afternoon.”
After a while, Kong No couldn’t help but speak.
“This is because the magical energy of Tianlang Island is rich, which is why these creatures grow so large.”
Mavis began to explain.
When someone started talking, the atmosphere at the table suddenly relaxed and everyone started chatting about this topic.
After everyone finished eating and cleared away the dishes, Noah took out the tents. Everyone took two tents, washed up, said good night to each other, and went to bed.
The next morning, everyone got up early and after breakfast, started to get busy just like yesterday.
We were busy until the evening when we finally put all the equipment in place.
Everyone gathered under the huge tree in the middle of Sirius Island. Noah stretched out his hand and kept pointing in front of the tree, and magic circles appeared in the air.
After operating for a while, Noah stretched out his hand and slapped the magic circle in front of him, and magic power continued to pour in.
“Buzz!”
With the land beneath Noah’s feet as the center, huge magical fluctuations continued to spread outward.
After those magical fluctuations passed through the ground, countless spell characters appeared.
Then, countless spell characters quickly rose up around Sirius Island, and finally converged above the big tree, forming a huge barrier that enveloped the entire Sirius Island.
Then, the entire barrier slowly disappeared into the air.
“Is that all right?”
Kana asked, wiping the sweat from her head.
“Let me take a look.”
Noah opened the ancient document and released magic at the same time, checking the barrier and recording the data.
After some inspection, Noah smiled and said to everyone:
“No problem, the barrier is functioning normally.”
“yeah!”
Kong Na couldn’t help but cheer, and smiles appeared on the faces of others.
“But what is the use of this barrier?”
Mirajane asked Noah, and the others looked over.
They only knew that Noah needed to help transform Sirius Island and set up a barrier, but they had no idea what the effect of the barrier was or what it was used for.
“Well, let me think about how to say it… Oh, by the way, let’s start with the most obvious tree on the Tianlang Island, the Tianlang tree.”
Noah thought for a moment and pointed to the big tree next to him.
“Sirurus tree?”
Erza asked back with some confusion.
“Yes, this is Sirius Island, and this big tree is called the Sirius Tree.
Do you know?
The Sirius Tree will protect those who bear the Fairy Tail emblem, preventing them from dying on this island, and will also enhance their magic power.”
Noah said to everyone with a smile.
“That’s why this is the holy place of Fairy Tail.”
Uru spoke up.
“There are reasons for this.”
Mavis said with a smile.
“Isn’t this very similar to the effect of the barrier you set up in the guild?”
Urrutia asked Noah.
“Yes, I made that barrier based on the situation on Sirius Island.”
Noah nodded, and Mavis asked curiously:
“You also set up a barrier in the guild?”
“Yes, in order to increase the safety of the guild, I set up a multifunctional barrier.”
Noah nodded, then told Mavis about the effects of the barrier he had set up.
Mavis sighed after hearing this:
“Why didn’t I think of setting up a barrier inside the guild?”
“I only had this idea after I learned how to set up a barrier.”
Noah said with a smile, then he turned around and said to Urrutia and the others:
“One of the functions of the barrier we are setting up now is to strengthen the ability just mentioned, so that people with the Fairy Tail emblem can become stronger here and prevent everyone from dying.
The second function is to prevent people without the guild emblem from entering the island, and only allow people with the guild emblem to enter Sirius Island.
The third function is to put up a protective shield when being attacked to block the attack.
The fourth function is to collect the surrounding magic power, prevent the magic power from escaping outward, and keep the magic power inside Sirius Island within a higher concentration range.
That’s roughly what the barrier we set up does.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Everyone nodded. Many of the functions Noah mentioned were similar to those of the guild and the training ground, except that their scope was larger.
