Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Fishman Alliance

Although an hour had passed, the quarrel was still as intense as before, and there was no sign of stopping, which made Livada-Gollum, who had been trying to endure it from the beginning to the present, completely unable to hold on.

"Have you had enough of the noise?" With a roar, it threw several small balls at the six fishmen in front of it.

The "click" sound made by being hit on the cheek by a water balloon is like a switch to end the originally fierce quarrel. The faces of the six fishmen showed different expressions, some frightened and some angry, but the only thing they had in common was that they all looked at Livada in unison.

"We're not here today to blame each other, if you think infighting can defeat the goblins, you can keep arguing!" Livada's voice was loud in the room that had suddenly fallen silent.

Perhaps sensing that Livada's words did make sense, the red-faced fishmen who had been arguing sat down in silence, the fish-people were fish-like-looking, with thin teeth as dense as a comb, and webbed limbs, and because they had no neck between their heads and bodies, they looked like sandbags when they sat down.

"There are so many goblins that we can't resist them, and 30 of my family have already died, including my ......son," said an old fishman with black markings, choking up.

"Indeed, my family's river was also captured yesterday, and there were many casualties." The sturdy green fish-man sighed.

"That's why we're gathered here, because there are so many goblins, and the number of each of our families is only about one hundred and fifty, so we have to put aside strife and unite to fight the enemy together!" Livada walked among the fishmen, his voice impassioned.

"Hmph, Livada, you said lightly, your family hasn't suffered any losses yet, you are afraid that you will be plundered by the goblin army next, so you said that you want to unite and fight. In fact, you just want us to help you protect your family's territory, which is a little too cunning! With obvious sarcasm in her tone, a black female fish-man said, although black, it was not as dark as the night sky, but shone with a hint of dark red luster, and it looked quite beautiful.

"Black-Pur, what do you mean, your family is the closest to the canyon, and the most secretive, do you think the goblins won't find you and want to stand by?" Livada turned to Blackstripe and looked at it with a sword-sharp look, "And if it's to protect my family, I can definitely propose a war on Ath's territory, after all, its territory is where the goblins will arrive next, so why should I ask for trouble to let it retreat to me with everyone?" ”

"This ......" Blackstripe seemed to want to refute but couldn't find any loopholes, which made it avoid Livada's gaze and lowered its head, indeed the words just now were quite convincing.

"Even if we collect all the members of our seven families, there are only more than 800 people now, and including the elderly and children, the number of people who can fight is estimated to be only about 400, the goblin army is 5 times our size, and the weapons and equipment are better than ours, we have no chance of winning at all!" A brown fishman with a scar on his forehead spoke his mind.

However, this is indeed an indisputable fact. Instantly, the whole room boiled again, with sighs of pain and curses of self-abandonment.

"That's enough!" Livada's roar cooled the atmosphere again, its voice loud and full of leader's bearing.

Seeing that the few family representatives in front of him were quiet again, Livada took a deep breath and said, "What Rak said just now is indeed true, even if we join forces, we may not be the opponent of goblins at all, but is there any other way?" Do you want to give up here and escape? ”

The fishmen looked at each other, the expressions of the thoughts that Livada had in mind.

"Escaping may be one way to go, but where are we going to flee? Into the canyon? Or do you want to go through the steppe? Once we leave the current, we are not vulnerable to attack, and if we don't find water for a long time, we will soon be exposed to the sun and die, and if we do escape, our chances of survival are probably similar to fighting goblins. No matter what, I, Livada-Gollum, will not give up my territory, even without your help I will fight the goblins myself, even if I die, to let those bastards know that we fishmen are not easy to bully! ”

Livada clenched his fists, and the intensity of emotion caused the silver scales all over its body to stand on end.

"Livada, thank you for letting my family retreat here, I, As-Kalu, will fight alongside you!" With spiky fins on its back, a lanky fish-man stood up.

"I want to avenge my son, and my Daven-Maro clan will support you!" The old fishman also agreed.

"My Gusma-Ohlu family is not a coward! I wasn't prepared last time, but this time I'm sure to give the goblins some color! The green fish-man also let out a very imposing shout.

"Are you really not going to run away? However, what Livada said is indeed true, it is more likely to survive than to flee and stay and fight, although the possibility of both is very small. Then count me as Lac-Mulr! Scarred Fishman sighed and joined in.

"That, that, I, I, Yu, Yoanda-Di, Dilu are coming!"

"Just you? It's really worrying that he can't speak fluently," Lark patted Yoanda on the head.

Then there was a burst of happy laughter, and although Yoanda was the target of the countdown, he did not show any dissatisfaction and laughed with the others. Such a relaxed atmosphere made the fish people temporarily forget about the threat of the goblin army.

After that, the fishmen's eyes fell on the last fish-man in the room who had not yet spoken, and the only female fish-man present, Black-striped Dulu.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, the black stripe unconsciously retreated.

"Blackvein, do you want to join?" Livada took a step forward and extended his hand to it in a friendly manner.

Blackstreak's eyes shook violently a few times, it was a manifestation of its inner fierce struggle over whether to participate in the battle, but after a moment it held Livada's outstretched hand, so everyone knew the answer in its heart, "Hey, I originally wanted to avoid the attack of the goblin army this time, but you are right, you can't let the goblins underestimate us, I will also help, so do you have any good countermeasures for Livada?" ”

Livada looked around, and the fishmen looked at him with anticipation in their eyes. Let's hope I can live up to everyone's expectations, Livada prayed inwardly, and then said, "Before I say what I think, I want to ask Blackvein to grant me a request. ”

Heiwen first froze for a moment, and then jokingly said, "As long as it's not a marriage proposal, you can just talk about other things." ”

"You were rejected before you even said it, Livada, you're really embarrassing!" Lark teased as the fishmen burst out laughing again.

After a short laugh, Livada continued, "Your territory is relatively hidden, and even if we are defeated, we will not necessarily be found by the goblins, so I want each of our families to select some old people and children to take refuge in your territory, okay?" ”

"You don't need to ask me about this kind of thing, you can just come directly, but my territory is not very large, I'm afraid it can only accommodate 200 people at most."

"Then let's select 30 members of each tribe to take refuge in the territory of the Black Stripes, hoping that they will survive in the end, and even if we are defeated, we can tell the deeds of our seven great families to future generations."

The fishmen nodded at Livada in agreement.

"Then let's talk about my countermeasures," the response from everyone added a sense of confidence to Livada's heart, and although this confidence was unfounded, it still sincerely believed that as long as the fish people joined forces, it would be able to overcome this difficulty, so it continued in a confident voice, "There is a reason why the territory where I live was chosen as the venue for the decisive battle, because ......"

On this night, the fishmen made a major decision, and the fishmen who had been scattered in various tributaries outside the canyon were all gathered together, and in order to fight against the huge goblin army, seven small fish-man families were united, and the Fishman Alliance Army with Livada-Gollum as the commander-in-chief was officially formed.
