Chapter 371: Don't play around at a critical time
The huge crab claws swung through the blood as if there was no resistance, and with the carapace that encased his body, the crab man had successfully killed a fish-man warrior in a life-for-wound manner.
And now his opponent, another fish-man warrior, has also been severely damaged, and the weapon in his hand, even if it is made of the hardest cold iron that the fish-man can mine, has no way to resist the opponent's attack, and even his left hand has been taken away by the opponent.
Not only this crab man, but the legends from the Allied forces all had the upper hand in the battle against the fishmen, and in the Colosseum built by the [Ice Ring], they did not need to worry about the tide of fishmen drowning them.
The casters of merfolk and krakens in the distance are fulfilling their promises, constantly casting frozen spells, freezing the surrounding waters into ice, maintaining the existence of the Colosseum, and the hope of defeating the merfolk chief has been completely placed on the nine surviving legends.
Some people may ask, since you can cast the [Ice Ring] to such a long distance, why not take advantage of the opportunity when the enemy is entangled by those legends and directly attack the Fishman Chief? If the [Ice Ring] that built such a huge Colosseum hits the Fishman Chieftain, it will definitely kill him directly.
"Kemiri, if it weren't for the fact that you merfolk and krakens were also hit hard in this battle, and that at least half of the adult members of the tribe died here, I would have thought that you were in collusion with the fishmen. ”
Seeing that at the cost of six more legends, the shamans of the fishmen were swept away, and now only the chief of the fishmen and the other two fishmen warriors with wounds on their bodies remained.
The surviving leaders of the Crab People, Lobster People, and Whale People on the side of the Allies are also the three strongest legends among the Allies, and after eliminating their respective opponents, they can still maintain a large part of their combat effectiveness.
"Those guys, dead. ”
Alice gestured to the three legendary warriors a few kilometers away who were confronting the fish-man chieftain Komiri, with a mocking smile on her face.
"What do you want to say, Your Highness Alice, do you want to say that we merfolk and kraken, in collusion with those filthy fishmen, have eliminated the other races, and then we will have a winner?"
No one knew whether it was out of anger or to hide the panic in her heart, but there was not a trace of expression on her face, she looked straight at Alice, and said in an extremely cold voice.
"No, no, no, it's just a baseless guess, if the fishmen win, with their character, they will never let you two go, and after seeing the strength of the fishmen, you will not use such a stupid plan to cross the river and tear down the bridge, or kill two birds with one stone. ”
Unless this battle, which has taken hundreds of millions of lives, is a stage play created by the gods behind you, intent on sweeping all the Baltic fish off the chessboard.
The last thought, of course, Alice will not speak directly, but in her heart, the level of vigilance has been adjusted to the highest level, and the hands hidden in her sleeves are preparing the magic to escape from here, and if anything goes wrong, she will leave this place and flee back to the city where Semiramis is located.
Even for Alice, who has become a lich, the loss of this body is not a big deal, but it is difficult for her to accept that she who has always thought she is very smart will die in other people's political methods.
I don't know if it's growth or regression, Alice has become very different from before, at least if it was the previous teenager who focused on practicality, now it's not about escaping, but about how to use this battle to hit the merfolk and the Kraken together.
If they win this battle, it must be a tragic victory, and for a long time to come, they will certainly not have the energy and ability to complete the unification of the entire Baltic Sea, at least until they alleviate the danger of the extinction of the race, they will not be able to rule the vast sea with a few people, which will only make countless careerists turn the spearhead of the struggle against themselves.
Only then will the plan conceived by Alice and Semiramis be realized, and the city, which has just begun to be built, will become the pearl of the Baltic Sea, extending Alice's influence in all directions to every corner of the Baltic Sea.
"Don't worry, after today, in the Baltic Sea, the fish-man and we will inevitably fall, because the Baltic Sea is a ...... It's too small. ”
"If you can tolerate us, you can't tolerate the fishmen, either the fishmen die, or we die. ”
Kerry didn't answer Alice's question directly, but gave them the attitude of the merfolk and the kraken in a light-off manner, and said nothing about why they didn't take advantage of the great opportunity to directly use magic to kill the merman chieftain and save those legendary combat powers.
Because there are some words that everyone knows are one thing, and it is another thing to say them, even if Alice and Camiri are surrounded by those loyal mermaids now, she will not put those things in the sun with Alice.
Running away from Alice and Cmile is a good way to get along, after all, the relationship between the two is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface, even if Cmile takes the initiative to sign a magic contract with Alice and invites her to participate in this war against the Fishmen.
Because of the difference in race, position and interest between Alice and Cmile, after solving the fishman, the two sides are likely to become enemies for the Baltic Sea.
This was something that Cherry had been preparing for the moment she learned of Alice's identity, because she was a legendary spellcaster, the next chief of the mermaid clan, and a mermaid princess known throughout the Baltic Sea for her wisdom.
She wouldn't believe that the city Alice had built was really just a clumsy excuse to build a city to give her dolphinmen a place to live, but even the fishmen wouldn't believe it.
Most likely, Alice took advantage of the fact that Siegel in Scandinavia was tossing an empire that did not yet have a shadow, and when the snow melted in the spring and winter, when the fierce fighting Atila had no time to go south, and included the entire Baltic Sea into the other's sphere of influence.
As long as Alice can successfully bring the Baltic Sea into her sphere of influence, then she will be invincible in the confrontation with Siegel and Attila, after all, the current main plane is not so easy to cast space magic for long-distance teleportation, and she can only use the most primitive tools, carriages on land, and ships in the sea wherever she wants.
It didn't take long for Cherry to see through Alice's thoughts from some clues, or that Alice, as a lord, could support her in entering the Baltic Sea for development, and only such a reason could be justified.
If it weren't for the coincidence of time, those fishmen would have started this great war for the survival of the race at this time, and involved the entire aquatic race in the Baltic Sea and its surrounding water systems, so that her various plans could only stay on paper and could not be implemented.
Originally, there was a gap in the power balance between him and the fish-man, and it would undoubtedly be a very unwise choice to offend a powerful legend at this time, especially since that legend still has a good reputation in this sea area, which is even more stupid.
Even so, before seeing the power of the Fish-Man, Camiri was still thinking about how to unite with other forces to destroy Alice's city that was still under construction and drive her power out of the sea after solving the Fish-Man.
However, the development of things is very different from that of Ke Milli, she never thought that the battle that should be evenly matched and there is no way to distinguish the winner in a short period of time would actually become a crushing party, she could never have imagined that in this cold sea, there would be so many fishmen hidden.
The heavy pressure made her mind focus on how to deal with those fishmen, and Alice's side became less important in the face of the fish-man threat now, the magic treaty signed before actually inadvertently added a strong man to her side who could change the situation on the battlefield a little.
It can be said that Ke Millie, a mermaid princess who always has an elegant smile on her face and a noble atmosphere between her demeanor, is actually an excellent superior, that is, commonly known as a politician.
No matter what these superiors do, they are from the point of view of their own interests, no matter what kind of people they face, they will put them in the position of potential opponents, for the sake of their own race, they can abandon all the unwanted emotions in their bodies, whether it is friendship or love, they all belong to the category of sacrifice, exchange, and betrayal.
For these people, the world will only be divided into two kinds of people, temporary friends and temporary enemies, and the current fish-people are their temporary enemies, who need to be weakened, attacked, and eliminated, and temporary friends like Alice are the objects of wooing, using, and befriending.
Alice is immature and conservative when compared to a superior like Clemon, and if she can ignore the reaction of the gods and speed up the pace of development a little, then her territory will definitely not be limited to Jutland and Schleswig.
On the contrary, Semiramis, a young girl who was abandoned in the forest by her divine mother and raised by pigeons, possessed all the elements of a typical superior, and was very skilled and mature in her means.
It can be seen from the fact that in Alice's absence, in order to get enough refugees, she had her army go against her principles, pretending to be from Timmy's army, and massacre Attila's army and the people who got in her way.
It can be said that Alice's character has slowed down her progress, if she can firmly implement the pragmatism in her heart 100%, and act in her own interests, after killing Torongo in the first place, she did not go to Assyria, did not go to Alexandria to waste those precious time, then the current Baltic Sea and the nearby coastal areas may have surrendered to Alice's skirt a long time ago.
Perhaps after ruling such a vast territory, Alice will be able to rely on the faith of her people to hold up the throne of God, become an eternally shining star in the sky, and become the first mortal to become a pure god.
Of course, if Alice hadn't traveled thousands of miles to Assyria to retrieve Semiramis at that time, she wouldn't have been Alice, and she wouldn't have been the girl who fascinated kings like Gilgamesh and Cyrus, and even gods like Loki were caught up in.
Alice, who has complex emotions, puts feelings first, and everything else serves for feelings, is the worldview, values and outlook on life that constitute the core of Alice's personality.
"Well, we've signed a magical contract anyway, and as long as you don't plan to break it, it doesn't matter to me. ”
Even from Alice's point of view, it would be good news for those legends if they could die in this battle...... The death of the legendary sea beast has weakened the combat power and influence of the Kraken and the merfolk, and the deaths of the leaders of the whale people, crab people, seal people, lobster people and other races will plunge their races that have been hit hard in the war into chaos.
Only in troubled waters can it be easy to fish, and only without the control of the leader can Alice easily fool the people below into her city that she is building, otherwise it will take me to develop the city in two ways: normal growth and slave purchase, and I don't know how many years it will take to complete the plan she has made.
"Your Highness Alice, please take action. ”
Suddenly, C. Millie, who had been maintaining the frozen Colosseum, had a rare look of panic on her face, even when the Allies were on the verge of being wiped out, C. Millie had never shown such an expression.
The crying, extremely surprised, and at the same time with a half-point unbelievable expression, even Alice, who was leaning sideways, could clearly see that from this expression, the trace of fear that Kemili wanted to hide, which is also commonly known as the expression of playing away.
"Otherwise, we're going to lose!"
Following Cmile's gaze, through the layers of fish-man barriers, Alice saw the inside of a building made of ice.
