A moment later, Ezreal withdrew his finger, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
He stood up and said to Levy and the others, "Phantom Lord Guild is deploying all its members, preparing to ambush us completely in the Northern Territory. Their target isn't just the cargo; they also plan to kill all the caravan members."
Levy frowned, a touch of worry in her voice, "It seems the journey ahead won't be peaceful."
The black-robed man on the ground seemed to realize he was about to die, glaring at them with venom in his eyes, "Fear! Heartfilia has been targeted by Phantom Lord. Every step you take forward, countless disasters will be waiting for you."
Ezreal nodded, his gaze sweeping over the black-robed man lying on the ground, his tone icy, "A good last will and testament."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black smoke wolf head darted out from Ezreal's shadow and swallowed the black-robed man whole.
The wolf head's eyes glowed crimson, then slowly sank back into the shadow, disappearing.
Jet clapped his hands, his voice light, "That's dealt with. What do we do next?"
Ezreal's gaze was firm, his voice carrying a hint of resolve, "Keep moving forward. Since Phantom Lord Guild dared to come, we'll make sure they don't return."
Levy pushed up her glasses, a touch of worry in her voice, "Phantom Lord Guild won't stop here. There might be more intense attacks to come."
Ezreal nodded, his gaze sweeping over the caravan members lying on the ground, "Let's wake them up first; we need to continue our journey."
Jet pulled out a few vials of antidote from his in my arms and handed them to Levy and Droy, "Here, help out."
The four quickly sprang into action, administering the antidotes to the caravan members.
Not long after, the caravan members gradually woke up, looking around with bewildered expressions.
Ezreal briefly explained the situation, and the caravan members thanked them before being arranged by the dignified Charlotte to continue resting.
The bodies in the carriage were all thrown out by Droy through the carriage door, and Charlotte arranged for a few caravan members to clean up the blood on the ground.
The Phantom Lord members had merely infiltrated the carriage; the chef and a few waiters were killed, but the other staff members were all still present.
There were also accompanying chefs in the caravan, so the impact was not significant.
The carriage quickly returned to quiet.
Charlotte and Lucy sat opposite each other.
Looking at the blonde girl sitting cross-legged on the chair in deep meditation, Charlotte's brows furrowed slightly.
Although the bloodstains on the ground had been cleaned, Droy's Thorn Strangulation of the Phantom Lord members had caused a significant amount of bleeding, and a faint scent of blood still lingered in the air.
Charlotte pondered for a moment, then gestured to Lucy's personal maid to wake her.
The maid gently tugged on Lucy's sleeve, "Miss."
Lucy opened her eyes, a little bewildered, "What is it?"
Charlotte cleared her throat, "Miss, would you like to communicate more with Mr. Ezreal and his companions? They seem to have rich experience in magic cultivation, and since you are similar in age, you should have a lot to talk about."
"If this trip goes smoothly, perhaps the guild will establish a long-term cooperation with Fairy Tail in the future. It's very necessary to build friendly relations in advance."
Having encountered two attacks just two days after setting off, the caravan leader became even more cautious.
Although the cargo was important, it was nothing compared to the future heir of the guild.
Charlotte spoke very tactfully, but combined with the recent attack by Phantom Lord members on the caravan, and thanks to her good upbringing and inherent intelligence, Lucy immediately understood that the other party was reminding her to stay as close as possible to Ezreal and his three companions to reduce the possibility of encountering danger.
Lucy blinked, thought for a moment, then nodded, "Mr. Charlotte makes a good point."
She stood up, straightened her skirt, and walked towards where Ezreal and his companions were.
Ezreal was talking with Levy, Jet, and Droy. Levy was holding a notebook, seemingly writing something. Seeing Lucy approach, they stopped talking and greeted her with a smile, "Lucy, is something wrong?"
Lucy sat down gracefully next to Levy, smiling, "What are you all talking about? Can I join in?"
Levy gently hugged Lucy and explained, "Little Lucy-chan, I'm asking Ezreal for guidance on the development direction of Solid Script Magic. Would you like to listen too? Ezreal is very knowledgeable."
The group had already become familiar with each other on the transport ship, and because they were similar in age, they quickly became close.
Especially Lucy and Levy, the two girls of the same age got along very well.
"Of course." Lucy looked at Ezreal with anticipation, "If possible, I'd also like to ask for guidance on Celestial Spirit Magic cultivation."
Ezreal smiled, "No problem. I'll finish talking to Levy first."
Then the blonde youth turned his head and glanced in Charlotte's direction.
He saw Charlotte holding a wine glass and nodding slightly to him.
Ezreal thought for a moment, immediately understood the other party's meaning, returned a smile, and retracted his gaze.
"So, let's continue."
"Your Solid Script Magic is not like Droy's and Jet's."
"Their development directions are actually quite easy to find."
"Jet's God Leg Magic is among the best in speed-type magic, essentially a physical enhancement magic."
"It can enhance body speed, but the most important thing is to strengthen the power of the legs. So, Jet only needs to cultivate his martial arts, and with the enhancement of potent potions, his strength improvement will be very significant."
"Droy's development direction is also very clear. Cultivating various mutated plants can give him a rich array of combat methods. How strong he can become depends entirely on how he cultivates the characteristics of various plants."
"As for your Solid Script Magic, with all due respect, you haven't grasped its true usage."
Ezreal's words made Jet and Droy nod in agreement.
Levy said frankly, "Before, I learned everything by myself from magic books. The cultivation and usage of Solid Script Magic in them were all very similar. I can feel that the power of Solid Script Magic should be more than this, but I haven't thought of a more suitable development direction."
Ezreal continued, "Your Solid Script Magic is not complete."
Levy was slightly taken aback, "Not complete, what do you mean?"
Ezreal took the notebook in front of Levy and drew a chibi Happy on it, "Do you remember Lidas's Drawing Magic?"
Levy was puzzled, "Drawing Magic?"
Ezreal held up the notebook, showing the sketched Happy to the others.
"A bit sloppy!" Jet commented.
"Barely looks like a cat." Droy said while eating potato chips.
Lucy also chimed in, "Hmm... abstract art."
Ezreal put down the notebook and silently raised his fist.
Jet, who was sitting closest, immediately chuckled awkwardly, "Very aesthetic!"
Droy, eating potato chips, said earnestly, "Happy looks just like that!"
Lucy leaned closer to Levy, "I quite like abstract art..."
