Makarov and Gar exchanged glances.
Gar suddenly remembered what Ultear was there for: to take control of the R System under Hades' command.
However, Ultear's Life Card suddenly burned up, and they were in a hurry to deal with Bluenote and return to notify everyone not to take on missions recently. They didn't ask Ultear for the specifics, treated her, and then returned to Fairy Tail.
Gar rubbed his chin. Perhaps he could use the R System to mess with Hades.
Makarov stood up, walked to the railing on the second floor, and said to Ur at the stairs on the first floor:
"Come up, Ur, and Ultear."
"Tell me in detail."
Ur nodded and said:
"Okay."
She then led Ultear up to the second floor.
Gar brought two stools and placed them next to the small table. Makarov also righted the chair he had knocked over.
Ur and Ultear walked up and sat on the stools.
Then Ur spoke:
"Ultear just told me something."
"She and that Bluenote were ordered by Hades to go to the island controlled by the Black Magic Cult to seize control of the R System."
"They hadn't succeeded yet when they received Hades' transfer order."
"After that was the battle."
"I don't know if this information is helpful to you."
Makarov frowned:
"The R System again?"
"We've already destroyed seven of them, why are they still building?"
"These guys really won't give up."
As a Ten Wizard Saint, he had participated in missions issued by the Council, and destroying the R System was one of them.
He remembered that the Council had destroyed seven of them over the years.
He didn't expect the Black Magic Cult to still be building them....
Gar asked:
"Seize the R System?"
"How would you seize it? By controlling their person in charge?"
"How far along were you?"
Ultear trembled slightly when she heard Gar's words.
Her fear of Gar wouldn't go away anytime soon. The treatment with ten times the pain while all her bones were shattered made her instinctively fear Gar, and she quickly said:
"More or less."
"It's just that the cultists of the Black Magic Cult on the island have too deep a belief. Brainwashing is useless, and using Magic is very easy to expose."
"So after discussing with Bluenote, we decided to start with the talented children among the laborers."
"As long as those talented children are successfully brainwashed and the cultists see their potential, they can then pretend to be brainwashed by the Black Magic Cult and definitely gain entry into the Black Magic Cult's high ranks."
"Then they would gradually display their talents and control the construction of the entire island's R System."
"It was almost done. I used Magic to disguise myself as Zeref's undead and had already brainwashed them. I was preparing to incite a riot to have them kill the cultist cadres on the island and demonstrate their value."
"But...."
"Suddenly, I received a message saying they were to be transferred."
"Coupled with the sudden huge tsunami."
"Now I don't know what the situation is like on the island, or if that child successfully rioted."
"But it's only been one night, so they probably haven't had time to start the riot yet...."
As she spoke, Ultear's voice grew smaller and smaller, and she finally lowered her head, fiddling with her fingers.
