Chapter 376: Losers and Winners

"How is that possible? How can there be an earthquake here?"

Fish-man Chief Komiri was alone on the wide seabed, exclaiming, his face no longer calm as a fish-man chieftain.

He couldn't understand why there was such a natural disaster as an earthquake in this place at this time, because in the Baltic Sea, there was absolutely no such thing, even if he used a spell such as [Seismic], there was no way to shake the rocks on the seabed that had been washed by the sea for an unknown number of thousands of years.

"How is ......that possible! It's ......"

Stunned by the situation around him, Ke Miri stayed motionless, not knowing if it was because he was too surprised, or if he knew that even if he swam as hard as he could, there would be no way to avoid the impending disaster.

Dense bubbles appeared from the bottom of the sea, and rushed quickly towards the sea above, the icy water became warmer, the temperature rose at a very rapid rate, and in just a few minutes, Komiri had to leave the seabed.

At his feet, the original black rock became extremely red, and countless small animals living in it frantically rushed out of the cracks between the rocks and gravel, and some crabs and shrimp could even be seen in Kemiri, and in a few seconds, their whole bodies turned red and fell to their deaths.

"Volcano! Why does volcanoism happen!"

Like boiling water, the sea water around Komiri began to boil, and the hot water that enveloped him brought him unimaginable pain at this time. As the chief of the fishmen, of course, he would know this famous spell that can change the entire terrain like a natural disaster.

Suddenly, a white light flashed through him, and a white barrier appeared around him, shielding him from the hot waters outside him and dragging him up from the abyss of death.

However, this was only delaying the time of his death, with the vast attack range of the volcano, there was no way for him to leave this place before the eruption, and at the same time, with his strength and the only remaining magic items on his body, there was no way to resist the volcanic eruption.

"I ...... Not ......"

The last words left behind could not even form a single sentence, and the red, hot magma had already broken through the hard seabed below, engulfing Kemiri's body, and the enchantment he had summoned with the magic scroll did not hold on for even a second.

However, it is not only Komiri who has disappeared, the sea is in the range of volcanic eruptions, and from this gap, rich red magma continues to gush out, and after coming into contact with the cold seawater, it quickly cools and turns into a harder volcanic rock covering the seabed.

Between hot and cold, ash and bubbles filled the entire sea, turning the sea into hot water in a boiling pot, and this was different from the meteorite technique used by Alice before, this volcano made by mermaids with spells is more powerful and has a wider range.

After all, for this spell, the merfolk pressed everything on it, whether it was the entire elite spellcaster army or their two mermaid princesses, they all sacrificed their lives for this spell.

That's right, at the moment before the spell was completed, the casters, including the two mermaid princesses who had reached the legendary strength, all of them died, and it was not only a fish-man chief who was buried as a burial companion, but also those fish-people who had not completely retreated from this sea area.

The Kraken's troops, the troops of other races, and Alice, they were all within the range of the attack, and the magma emitted by the volcano had no ability to distinguish between friend and foe, and in an instant, it burned the Krakens who also had no time to dodge to ashes.

If the Krakens' deaths were generously sacrificed for strategic purposes, then the warriors of the other races who survived with great difficulty, fighting the fishmen at the last moment and buying time for the mermaids, seem much more innocent.

Originally, it was just a last effort to survive, but I didn't expect that this situation was in the plan of the mermaid and the kraken from beginning to end, and I had to be tied to a chariot called decoy and drive to the abyss of death.

Of course, if other people are innocent, then Alice belongs to that type that is absolutely not innocent, and at the last moment, she was still in the dark by Ke Millie, and she didn't expect that the other party would use the trick that would end up together.

And she was also classified by the other party as an enemy who was bound to be killed in a war like those fishmen...... There is no way, if the fish-man has been an old enemy for thousands of years, but Alice, who intends to extend her power to the Baltic Sea, is a potential enemy who has not yet started hostility.

Kmiri didn't think that she had killed the sea monster, and the Lord of Jutland, known as the Daughter of Calamity, had built a city at the bottom of the sea on a whim, spending a few months a year vacationing here.

So whether it was so polite to Alice before, or the magic contract signed, it was for now, at the final blow, along with Alice, to kill together, under the attack of this volcanic spell that cost the lives of five hundred spellcasters, she didn't think that Alice would be able to break free from here and survive under the boiling sea water and hot magma.

After all, the current main plane, there is no way to cast spells such as [Teleportation], and other spells such as [Acceleration Dafa] have no way to make Alice leave from the same place to a place a few kilometers away from here in an instant.

Not to mention that in Ke Milli's eyes, Alice, who had cast several powerful spells in a row, was already in a state of weakness at the end of the strong bow, and her face and the breath coming from her body clearly revealed such information.

But even so, Cherry was ready to do it, and the two mermaid maids she had left behind to serve Alice exploded a second before the eruption, turning into two balls of blood.

Without giving Alice time to react, the two balls of blood turned into chains that bound Alice in place, and firmly bound her hands, preventing her from having a chance to cast her magic.

Alice, who was taken aback by the sudden change, reflexively wanted to activate the magic in her hand that had been prepared for a long time, forcibly break through the plane wall of the main plane, and leave this place, but she didn't expect that Ke Millie would actually think about things to such a point.

"Blue ......"

Before she could spit out the initials of the curse words, Alice's figure was engulfed in the eruption of magma, with no dodge and no defense.

It's dead, right...... After all, the doppelganger used by Alice now is, in essence, just an ordinary human girl body that has undergone some superficial modifications, and the transformation of this body is only to use the leaves and veins of the World Tree to improve the resilience of this body, whether from a defensive or other point of view, it should not be, and cannot survive, from the engulfment of these magma.

Maybe these lava under the sea can't destroy part of the World Tree, but other places that originally belonged to Alice's human body can't withstand that kind of heat, and when these magma are completely cooled by the sea water and turned into hard magma rock, those last parts of Alice will appear.

Of course, the above is all speculation from the possibility that Alice was swallowed by magma without the slightest resistance, whether it will continue according to such speculation, and whether Alice, the doppelganger she cherishes the most, who represents the past, will fall in this sea area because of Camiri's calculations, no one can predict.

In any case, Alice is now a strong person who has touched the ceiling of the main plane, and if she is killed by Ke Milli so easily, Beowulf and Dorengo, who are the strong people who were calculated to die by her, will crawl out of hell and laugh at her.

-------------

I don't know how long it took, maybe a day, maybe a week, but the magma created by volcanomy was completely turned into hard magma rock under the action of the infinite sea water, and at the same time, it also sealed the possibility of the magma below continuing to erupt upward.

The sea area, which had become extremely cold due to the death of too many lives, became warm and full of life under the flood of these magma, and those thick layers of corpses were burned out as soon as the magma appeared, and the abundant materials brought by the seabed magma will greatly promote the growth and reproduction of microorganisms in this sea area.

A large number of microorganisms will become food for other seabed creatures, so that other seabed creatures can get enough energy and nutrients to recuperate, and in terms of the terrible fecundity of sea creatures, it will only take about a year or two for this sea area to return to its original state.

It will take a long time to recover under the surface of the sea, but on the surface of the sea, the feast of seabirds and fish has begun, and the corpses of the fish people who have not been swallowed by the magma, and who have been scalded to death by the hot seawater, now float on the surface of the sea, forming a small island with an area of more than a dozen acres.

The enchanting aroma of the cooked carcass attracts the attention of the surrounding seabirds, who stop by and feast on their appetites.

Below the surface of the sea, some sharks are also infested in it, constantly devouring the corpses of fish people, the number of sharks is very large, dense and difficult to count, and the species are very numerous, the big ones are more than ten meters and twenty meters long, and the small ones are not even one meter.

These sharks were undoubtedly very lucky, they did not dare to go deep into the battlefield due to the previous battle, they left the battlefield at the first time of the eruption of the volcano, waiting for everything to calm down, and what awaited them was food that they did not know how long it would take to eat.

"It's dangerous...... I almost died!"

In the dark and invisible environment, there was a painful and happy girl's voice, in the plan of the dead Cmile, Alice, who had absolutely no way to escape her calculations, actually survived the devouring of those magma.

But even if she survived, her current situation was actually not very good, and even couldn't be worse, because Alice was now completely inhuman, and the parts from her heart down had disappeared, and the wound was charred black and solidified stone.

"Like, it's not that hot anymore?"

A faint green light appeared from Alice's neck down, and even after losing most of her body, the remaining veins of the leaves of the World Tree still provided Alice with unimaginable vitality, allowing her to survive with only her heart and brain after losing her internal organs.

If it weren't for the black char at the wound that hindered the regeneration of the body, presumably the rest of Alice's body would have been restored by this time under the effect of this continuous life force.

Now, Alice, who has lost most of her abilities, can only quietly wait for the arrival of rescue, and when her mind is clear and she understands her current situation, Alice transmits her message to the body located in the void, and asks the Pale Book to take Semiramis and Kraken here to clean up this mess.

Because the stone that wrapped her head was not an ordinary stone, it was a special stone called basalt after the magma cooled, and only such a stone could isolate the heat in the magma at the last moment, but the stone that once protected Alice has now become a cage that imprisons her so that she has no way to leave.

At the moment when the volcano was formed, Alice, who was attacked by two mermaids and had no way to cast magic, activated a magic item that she hadn't used since she got it...... It was a trophy from the goblin Charreel, who had been killed by Alice, a cloak that could activate the magic in it with a single thought as long as the magic scroll was stored inside.

After being bitten by Smir's sneak attack in the last battle with Smir, Alice retrieved the magic item that had been considered useless again, and stuffed it with the magic scroll of the [Body Shield].

At the last moment when her head was about to be swallowed by the magma, the activated stone shield formed a stone ball layer by layer, protecting her head and allowing her to escape.

"This time, did you actually become a loser?"

Alice, who has nothing to do, begins to look back on what had happened up to this point, and finally she realizes that no matter which side it is, it is the loser.

The Fishmen have lost all their legends, and at least close to eighty million Fishmen have died.

The rest of the race were wiped out, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled who did not participate in the war.

Alice herself, she didn't get anything, and even the magic contract that she signed seriously for the first time and didn't do anything was torn up, and now she can only wait for Semiramis to rescue.

And even the only winners, the merfolk and the kraken, have lost more than 90% of the casters in the tribe, and if there are any more moths in the Baltic Sea at this time, then the two tribes with heavy losses will only make wedding dresses for others.
