Chapter 419: You Are All My Tentacles

Karofish is a squid and the most powerful legendary warrior of their tribe!

From a great kingdom that stretches thousands of miles under the sea and on the seashore in a sponge without a trace.

is a prince who is qualified to mate with the queen of squid.

The word prince also comes from the intelligent creatures on the ground.

Originally, they lived in the Sea of No Trace, but they have always lived in ignorance, and rarely take the initiative to come into contact with surface creatures, because it represents unknown dangers.

That is, until one of their tribe, a deep-sea squid named Slater, accidentally visited an ancient ruin named Ascal who had been buried in ice.

It was an elven city destroyed by the Drow elves, and in that ruins, Saracla had found a record of their deep sea squid, and learned about the former glory of his race, hoping to restore it.

At the same time, he also became a spellcaster through the knowledge left behind by the elves, and gained the trust and favor of Ambori, the god of the sea, and became his chosen one.

Over the centuries, Slater built a network of agents under the sea to bolster his organization, and he also rescued many human sailors who had fallen overboard, asking them to act as his loyal coastal agents in exchange for their lives.

From this peculiar origin, this powerful group of intelligence traffickers was founded, and quickly recruited members of many races, such as the Sawa Fishmen, Sharks, Aquatic Gargoyles, Ferocious Sharks, and Narwhals.

Later, it slowly developed advanced intelligent creatures such as humans, benthic demon fish, and spirit sucking monsters, and developed rapidly, and gradually explored a development model that exchanged intelligence for wealth, influence, and privilege, and further expanded its goals through assassination and other evil acts.

That deep sea squid mage was so remarkable, he brought knowledge and glory to their squid tribe, brought a glorious past, and brought hope for a resurgence of hope.

So much so that their squid queen gave Slater the most trust and support.

This has always given Carlo Fish a very mixed sense of Slater, perhaps in terms of human emotion...

Is this envy? or is it jealousy?

Even so, Karlofesh could not deny the merits he had brought to the Race.

He has indeed brought a better life and more choice to the community, to their fellow citizens.

But Karofish was a little concerned about the rapid growth of the tribe and the organization, and over the years they gained more and more and more into disputes.

The strife of the human caravans and the coastal countries also has to spread faith for the goddess of the sea.

He feared that one day, these strife would bring ruin to their tribe.

46 years ago, it was undoubtedly a special day.

Their squid colony has welcomed a new partner.

It was a northern city-state called Luskan, and they also had an organization called the Arcane Brotherhood.

The human who collaborated with them on behalf of the Arcane Brotherhood was named Renate.

is a level 16 warrior/level 6 Legendary Wanderer Swordsman, one of the five Supreme Commanders of Luskan, and a member of the Arcane Brotherhood.

This layer of identity is also a handle that the other party takes the initiative to hand over to them to show sincerity.

But the content of the cooperation between the two sides made Carlo Fish extremely angry.

The other party actually offered to let their tribe provide ten prime-age squids with a length of more than 100 feet to their Arcane Brotherhood every year.

The Arcane Brotherhood, on the other hand, uses a constructing spell to fuse their people and hulls together to form a ghost ship capable of diving into the depths.

In Karofish's opinion, what is the difference between this and betraying one's own people?

Once they accept this kind of transformation and are forever enslaved by human beings, can they still be regarded as their own people?

Unfortunately, despite the strong opposition in the community, Lester agreed to the agreement despite their opposition.

To Carlofish's shock and disappointment, the queen was silent.

Because the conditions offered by the other party are also difficult for their race to refuse.

The Arcane Brotherhood has a technology that can dramatically increase the survival rate of their squid larvae, which can increase their squid's survival rate to 60% from less than 5% of their original squid!

This is truly an achievement that shocked the squid.

They really can't refuse.

But ten middle-aged squids with a length of more than 100 feet every year put too much pressure on their tribe.

There are very few squid that can reach a healthy adult, and the squid in the prime of life are indispensable warriors and guardians to maintain the safety of their tribe.

In the past few decades, although the survival rate of juvenile squid has greatly improved, due to the scarcity of warriors and the compression of hunting range, their tribe has gradually fallen into a very embarrassing situation.

Even many squids will be recruited by their mothers not long after they reach adulthood, and they will become left-behind squid children from now on.

Karofish told herself to endure and endure again, and when these little squid came of age, their tribe could become strong again.

But everything was ruined two weeks ago.

Without warning, a silent purple beam of light crossed the entire Traceless Sea, and the entire Ocean Kingdom was devastated.

And their squid tribe is unfortunate to be in that path of death...

One-fifth of their people disappeared on the spot.

The affected tribesmen also died violently due to the continuous failure of their body tissues.

The only thing that makes Carlo Fish happy is that the nursery reef was not affected, but they still seem to be very frightened and even bite each other.

But where fate is a bastard, when you are given a glimmer of hope, despair is often followed.

After the young squid was safely evacuated, Karlofish saw bad news in the chaotic halo pigment of her people.

Their queen, who has been hit hard, is likely to be in danger.

Carrofish spat out all the ink, propelling his body to the deep lair, where he saw a scene that caused the pigment to stop flowing all over his body in an instant.

Once upon a time, Karlofeish believed that their squid was invincible and would be immortal like the gods in the sky.

And at that time, the appearance in front of me, the squid queen the size of a mountain, the original pink and sexy tentacles seemed to fuse most of them, and they rolled ugly.

On the wounds that rolled up, purple hedrons were still condensing.

The majestic queen in the past was in great pain at this time, and the ink was flowing out uncontrollably, slowly eroding the entire tribe.

Originally, their squid was immune to the magic juice of the same kind, but at this time, the magic juice flowing out of the queen not only increased exponentially, but also had an indescribable corrosiveness.

Karofish had just come to the queen, and he had already been immune to most of the magic, but he felt a tingling all over his body.

What made him even more angry was that he saw the damn creature in the deep lair, in front of the queen!

Slater!

The sinner thief of this squid tribe!

It must have been some terrible existence that they provoked outside, so that the squid tribe would be punished so harshly!

Almost as soon as they met, Caro Fish's eight tentacles bound Lester, who seemed to be unconscious.

As the most powerful legendary warrior of the entire squid tribe, with a slight push from him, this weak spellcaster was turned into a puddle of rotten meat.

But the queen used the only remaining halo to stop his impulse.

In Carrofish's disbelievable gaze, the queen temporarily handed over the control of the entire squid tribe to Lester, and asked Karo Fish to cooperate with the other party unconditionally.

"Karlofish, you are the most powerful warrior of our tribe,

"Slater, you are the most outstanding spellcaster and wise man of our tribe.

"In my heart, you are all my tentacles...

"I don't want to end my life with you killing each other.

"I've lived long enough, and I'm glad to be able to see the change of the tribe at the end of my life, and the hope of the re-emergence of the squid tribe.

"As long as the nursery reef is still there, as long as you can work together, our squid tribe will still have a bright future.

"I hope that one day, we too will no longer be able to live in the deep sea, but will be able to have the right to sacrifice on the land of the sun like other living beings.

"I can learn the latest and most cutting-edge spell knowledge, and I can travel to a wider sea of stars and a more colorful plane like those Nethar mages.

"It's a pity that I won't see that day after all..."

With that, the Queen's mouthparts full of sharp teeth inexorably erupted more pitch-black ink:

"You... Get out of here, I... I can't control the erosion in my body..."

It was the last sentence Carlo Fish saw, a glowing pigmentation message that broke his heart.

Then, he was dragged away by Slater, and could only watch as the Queen's majestic figure disappeared into the thick black fog, watching his tribe gradually engulfed in darkness.

It wasn't until that moment that he finally understood that Slater was more than just a weak mage.

He has... Not inferior to their own strength.

Even if Carlo Fish didn't like the other party again, he decided to trust his queen.

Together, they led the remnants of the tribe to migrate to the sea near Lantan Island.

It was originally the territory of the Sawa fish-man tribe.

They paid a price for it.

But three days later, Slater suddenly told him.

Luskan has declared war on Lunaris Island.

This is an opportunity for their tribe.

According to the agreement between the two sides, the squid community will fully support the Moon Sea War initiated by Luskan.

To Karlofish's point of difficulty, the Arcane Brotherhood named their tribe to send two hundred adult clansmen to participate in their construct-modification program to replenish the Ghost Battleships they had lost in the war.

That's almost half of their tribe's remaining warriors.

But Slater agreed.

This time, Karlo Fish remained silent.

Because the Arcane Brotherhood promises a reward that makes it hard for them to refuse.

As long as the war is won, their squid tribe will gain offshore control of the entire Lunaris Islands, where there are large areas of safe and well-fed coral reefs, where the future of the squid cubs holds.

However, in order to ensure that as many people as possible survived the war, and to fight for more rights for the people, Karlofish decided to participate in the operation herself.

Now that the plan is irreversible, he hopes that at least he can fight for more.

After a week and a half of rectification, the entire Traceless Sea, the team under the command of the squid colony was finally assembled.

In addition to the two hundred adult squid of their tribe, there are nearly 30,000 Sawa fish-man warriors, four hundred sharks and ferocious sharks, and two narwhals.

For these sea monsters with low intelligence, Karo Fish did not take it to heart, because even if they were numerous, they were completely incomparable to them in terms of strength and intelligence.

Only a benthic motfish from Skull Harbor near Drawing Water City made him feel a little jealous.

The benthic demon fish, which is a powerful species that can fight with spirit-absorbing monsters, is also good at psionic spells, but most of them live in the deep sea or the sea of shimmer in the dark region, which is very mysterious and rarely comes into contact with the outside world.

But this tribe of devilfish seems to be a little different.

It is said that there is also a benthic Mobasil Lord living in Skull Harbor, who controls at least 40% of the living creatures in the entire harbor by relying on psionic energy.

Although Karo Fish has absolute confidence in his own will, this kind of guy who plays with the minds of other creatures still makes him instinctively hostile and resistant.

Especially when this guy is still his 'ally'.

Sometimes Carrofish felt that there was some truth in what Slater said, that order and knowledge could make a race stronger.

Although the journey was relatively smooth, perhaps due to the favor of Ambori, the goddess of the sea, they did not encounter stormy weather.

Otherwise, an ocean army of such a large size as theirs could easily be torn apart under the impact of stormy currents.

But even so, the low-intelligence Shahua fishmen still made him speechless.

The group swept through like locusts in transit.

Small fish, shellfish, crabs, almost nothing is spared, and even the beautiful coral reefs are ruined by them!

Because of this snatching of food along the way, they clashed with the ferocious sharks more than once.

If it weren't for the benthic devilfish named Salakra who mediated in the middle, I'm afraid they would have had a fight between themselves due to infighting before they could meet with the human fleet from Luskan.

Just as Karlofesh was secretly glad that he had finally approached the continental shelf of the Lunaris Islands and was about to arrive at the rendezvous with the Luskan Navy, the halo pigment on the body of the clansmen in front of him kept changing:

"There's a human fleet ahead of us, is that a human working with us?"

But soon came the negative voice of the benthic devilfish Salakra:

"No! that's not Luskan's fleet, you have to learn to read the type of ship and the flag on the mast, friends. ”

"That is, it could be an enemy?" asked Karlofish.

"It doesn't matter if it's an enemy or not, as long as it's not Luskan's ship, it's all a merit that can be exchanged!, and the human brain is the most delicious, do you want to try it?" asked Sarakra.

Karlo Fish vetoed it firmly:

"No, I think we should wait! We're about to get to the rendezvous and the place, and we should have fewer surprises until then. ”

Salacla came with a low laugh:

"Slater is right, you have a dead brain like a human paladin, I really don't know how in this deep sea, such a strange thing was born of you. But trust my judgment, when all is ready, it will be too late, only eighteen ships, we are the absolute superior, so why can't we prepare some small gifts for our friends before the meeting?

"Do it!"

"Wait!"

Before he could stop it, one of his own people had spurted a stream of ink onto the water, grabbing one of them with eight tentacles, tearing him apart.

And the squid's actions undoubtedly became the fuse, and the Shahua fishman with a low IQ was the first to rush up.

"You see, these humans are much more fragile than we think. Salakra spread two fins at him.

"How dare you!"

Karofish glared at the other party angrily, for he knew that with his prestige among the clan, his own people could not be the first to strike without his own orders!

Then there is only one explanation:

This damn benthic demon fish used its psionic energy to lure that clansman!

This damn salted fish!

But before Carlo Fish could think about how to solve the conflict with the other party, Salakra's eyes showed a strange look:

"What's the situation, why is there no one on board?

"It's all fishmen?

"Or the Kou Tao Fishman?"

At this moment, the Kou Tao fish who were thrown off the boat were also angry.

They pulled out their coral forks, and a large string of bubbles came out of their mouths, and they purred and slurped and killed the Sawa Fishman.

Bang bang!

The other sea ships also began to resound with a dull shelling sound!

This sudden encounter, when all the creatures are not ready...

Imminent!
