Chapter 8: The Water Demon (2)
Rather than the curse of the god of the 'spirit', Rhaegar was more interested in what was revealed in Haim's words - even among the red-haired 'spirits' of the royal family of 'spirits', not everyone could read the classics passed down from their ancestors, only those of the most noble 'spirits' were qualified to do so, and it was clear that, although he was reluctant to say more, this partner of his own had an unusual identity.
"You have a way to deal with it, don't you?" Willy looked at Rhaegar with confidence, in the heart of this 'female' warrior, she was once a god lover who could do anything.
"If I were still the God of Judgment," Rhaegar said, "this curse wouldn't even make us sneeze, and now," a cold gaze 'shot' out of his eyes, "there's only one way," he said word by word, "to destroy them before they cast the curse." ”
This sentence decided the fate of this tribe that dominated the bottom of the sea.
It is a huge submarine mountain, with a cone-shaped mountain covering an area of nearly 100 square kilometers, and between the dense aquatic plants and corals that cover the entire mountain, several dark 'holes' are cleverly hidden behind the craggy rocks. This is the entrance to the lair of the Haino tribe, one of the more than a hundred water demon tribes scattered in the mortal world, and like their kind, the water demons who live here never welcome any outsiders, including other tribes, and they will mercilessly turn the creatures that approach the lair into their prey, and it is a forbidden place for life for the intelligent creatures of the nearby seas.
But at this moment, the forbidden place welcomed its first visitors in thousands of years.
"I don't like it here," Tomahawk looked at his surroundings with a slight unease, and although Rhaegar's magic allowed him to move freely on the ocean floor without being affected by the resistance of the sea, and without worrying about the lack of air, the dwarf felt an inexplicable nervousness, "Are you sure your magic won't fail halfway?" he asked.
"You can choose to quit now," Willy said, magic that allowed them to talk to each other through their minds, "but I warn you that you insisted on coming here and no one forced you. ”
"I never said I was going to quit," Tomahawk retorted to his companion, and it was a great insult for a belligerent dwarf to be asked to quit before a fight, "I can't wait to teach those ugly wretchs a lesson now." ”
"I think you can do that now. Nack on the side said, and at the same time pulled out his war hammer, facing the group of water demons rushing on the opposite side, beside him, long arrows with green 'color' light flowed out of the Alor bow in Haim's hand, and the first few water demons immediately struggled to sink to the bottom of the water, blood gushed out from their chests, making the surrounding *** sea water turn green.
The water monster's patrol team clearly underestimated the strength of the inders, and when they managed to survive the oncoming rain of arrows, Willy's sword, the axe of the battle axe, and the war hammer of Nack caused them to suffer more casualties, and the water monsters could not understand how these creatures that advanced through the water on their 'legs' were so agile that the resistance of the sea seemed to be completely ineffective. With this kind of confusion, the water demons were hit by the squad's weapons one after another, and in the blink of an eye, there were only five or six people left in the patrol of more than twenty people. However, this casualty was not without cost, and while the companions were fighting fiercely with the team, one of the water demons left behind had successfully sounded the alarm, and in a few minutes at most, a large number of water demons would arrive.
Except for the initial elimination of a few water demons, after the melee combat began, Haim did not participate in the battle, he just stood in place, watching his companions slaughter their opponents, even when the other party raised the alarm, and by his side, at the same time as the battle began, Rhaegar had already disappeared without a trace.
Countless thin lines crossed the sea at this time, 'shooting' at the team that was chasing the opponent, it was the water arrows sprayed by the water demons, and after receiving the alarm, the other water demons patrolling nearby rushed over as soon as possible. These ugly monsters with a ferocious glint in their eyes surrounded the squad from all sides, wielding weapons made from the bones of underwater creatures in their hands, ready to tear these daring intruders to shreds.
The Aloel Divine Bow in the Spirit's hand flashed green again, and long arrows containing destructive 'sexual' energy rained down on his opponent, "Now," he said loudly to his companions, "Let's get to work!" His body flashed lightly in the water, and he quickly joined the rest of the team, and the next moment, the four terrifying warriors began to use their true strength.
Floating in the water, he moved lightly and ethereably, the effect of invisibility magic completely dismissing him from sight, and the currents of the ocean floor obscuring the traces that he might bring with him as he moved, and in this near-perfect state of lurking, he quietly approached the lair of the water demons.
Bands of water demons swam past him, but no one noticed his presence, and all of them hurried, angry-faced water demons all rushed in the same direction, and Rhaegar knew that his plan had been successful, and that most of the troops in the area were now attracted by his allies, which would greatly reduce the obstacles he might encounter.
If it was on land, Rhaegar didn't have to do this at all, and there was no obstacle that could stop a forbidden mage, but at the bottom of the sea, he had to be more careful - the enormous pressure caused by the ubiquitous sea water, the 'shooting' lines of some material present at the bottom of the sea, and all the strange creatures that did not exist in his memory made him have a lot of scruples when casting magic.
Rhaegar traveled quite smoothly, and the water monsters lost their vigilance due to their dominance over the seas for thousands of years, and they didn't even set too many magic traps around the lair, until a creature resembling a giant octopus appeared in front of him, and Rhaegar encountered a real obstacle for the first time.
This large octopus, which is at least three stories tall, is one of the demonic beasts raised by the water monsters, it has an extremely keen perception, and at the same time as Rhaegar approached, this monster instinctively sensed the existence of a threat, it waved its eight tentacles, wisps of detection energy emitted from the tentacles, forming a huge reconnaissance net in an area of 100 meters.
This kind of detection does not allow Rhaegar to ***, if it is on land, he has at least a thousand ways to easily bypass these energies, but in the sea, it will undoubtedly take a certain amount of time to pass the exploration of the big octopus without movement, looking at the water demon lair 'hole' less than 100 meters away from him, Rhaegar decided to use another method.
A red light emerged from the giant octopus's body, quickly encircling the monster, and before it could struggle, the heat that erupted from the inside had already incinerated its body, and in an instant, the huge monster turned into a pile of ashes.
Waves of water rippled from Rhaeggar's location to the surrounding area, and the magic that killed the big octopus still touched the magic trap near the nest. "There's an intruder!" the guarding water demon was alerted at the first time, and in an instant, at least hundreds of heavily armed soldiers rushed to Rhaegar from their respective hiding places, and a series of highly poisonous black water arrows spewed out of their mouths and "shot" at their opponents. Compared to the patrols on the periphery, the soldiers responsible for guarding the entrance to the lair were undoubtedly much sharper, not only in terms of strength - the water arrows sent by ordinary water demons only penetrated but were not highly poisonous, but also in their strict discipline, even when the alarm came from the front, they still stuck to their posts, and those places where they hid were, from the point of view of the 'flesh' eye, were just rocks a second ago.
A huge 'shadow' shadow formed in front of these soldiers, and the next moment, Cato quickly formed in front of them. The size of this giant beast was ten times the usual at the moment, and at the same time as it appeared, it opened its huge mouth, and the infinite suction power turned it into a terrible black 'hole', and those water demons and the water arrows they 'shot' had no resistance at all, and were sucked into Cato's mouth like leaves falling into a whirlpool, and hundreds of soldiers became food in the belly of the giant beast in the blink of an eye, and Cato's body size did not even change in the slightest.
"Destroy them. "Rhaegar gave orders to his shadow, and his body was once again hidden in the water, and he swam swiftly towards the nearest 'hole', and behind him, the behemoth, who had no self-consciousness and only knew how to obey, faithfully carried out his orders, and the water monsters that came from everywhere were wiped out by its powerful onslaught.
Soragat stared at the crystal ball in front of him with red eyes, and the scene of the battle between the team and the water demons was faithfully reproduced in front of his eyes. However, to the anger of the king of the water demons, despite their numerical superiority, the warriors who were proud of themselves did not have even the slightest advantage in this disparity of numbers, and the four invaders were like four efficient killing machines, and everywhere they went, the corpses of the water demons floated in the sea like aquatic plants, and the green 'colored' blood that flowed out made the whole picture seem a little blurry.
"Is that them?" said Soragat's voice as cold as a rock at the bottom of the sea, and even an idiot could hear the bitter hatred contained in it.
"Knight's body didn't have their breath on it, but they should have been nearby. An elderly water demon closed his eyes and meditated for a moment, then said.
"Inform the Council of Elders," Soragat said, word by word, "I am going to hold the ceremony now." ”
