Chapter 7: The Water Demon

The experiment being conducted is a new idea proposed by Rhaegar who, after initial success, is no longer satisfied with creating explorers on a small scale, and if this experiment is successful, then henceforth they will be able to create sapient geyers in droves. For this reason, Rhaegar's monsters have captured almost all of the sea creatures in the nearby seas in order to exchange their souls for a large number of geisms.

The crystal that was originally quietly suspended suddenly began to flash with dazzling bright light, and those who had experience knew that this was the manifestation of the impact from quantitative change accumulation to qualitative change, and those wandering spirits in the crystal were initially awakening, and the next work was no longer their business.

Slowly retracting the 'spirit' divine power into their bodies, the members of the team opened their eyes and let out a long breath. After a long period of exercise, each of them has made considerable progress in their 'spirit' spiritual power, which also makes these people's attitude towards this experiment gradually change from the initial subconscious rejection to habit, and then to the current acceptance and even a little enthusiasm.

One by one, translucent shadows flew out of the crystals, and these newly-acquired geisms were in a brief state of ignorance, and before they could learn more about the world, the glowing magic symbols had already submerged into them, and these servant contracts would accompany them for eternal life until the end of the universe.

Along with the Servant Pact is the attack skill created for these geyers by the Ragar Gate, which is incorporeal and cannot physically affect even a grain of sand as disembodied shadows. But on the other hand, these spirits closest to the soul can use even more 'spirit' divine power than some mages, which makes it possible to teach them magic - the soul 'shooting' line, this magic evolved from Nevin's soul destroying 'shooting' line, although not as powerful as the former, is enough for ordinary creatures to make their souls fly away, even if a powerful mage is not immune to continuous hits.

"You've made it," Tomahawk said as Rhaegar opened his eyes, "Looks like I don't have to stay on this island for too long." "Staying in the same place for a whole year is no different from going to jail for a dwarf.

A wave of magic formed in the 'hole' and 'hole' quickly passed into Rhaegar's mind, and almost at the same moment, he already understood all the contents.

"We've got guests," Rhaegar said, "but they don't seem very friendly." He waved his hand, and a passage to the outside world appeared in front of the team, "Interested in going and having a look?" Rhaegar asked.

Knight's eyes widened, and he stared unblinkingly at the island ahead of him that was blocked off by an invisible barrier, though inaccessible, and the power of the contract allowed him to be completely sure that his pet beast was being held somewhere on the island.

"We can't break through that shield," a stout water demon swam to his side with a swing of its lower fishtail, "it's a very powerful magic that can even deflect our attacks, and several people have already died because of it." ”

Shui *** Zi turned his head, and the red 'colored' eyes that symbolized the status of the royal family stared at each other, although the eyes were covered with a transparent film used to isolate the seawater, and the gaze condensed into a substance still tightly covered his entourage.

"I want Halle!" Knight cried out in the shrill voice of the water demon, "Go and get it back for me, or you will all die!" The prince, whose mind had been forever stuck in his infancy due to a magical accident, swung his fishtail angrily, and the red 'color' light 'shot' out of his eyes, causing the water demon who was with him to curl up in the water and tremble violently - the royal gaze has always been one of their most powerful weapons against their kind, and any water demon who comes into contact with their gaze will feel the spirit of '' The double pain of the flesh and body.

"Get Halle back," Knight eventually withdrew his gaze - not because of kindness, although his intelligence was far from matching his body, and the water knew that he had to rely on these people to find his favorite pet beast, "Go!"

"They're so ugly," said the dwarves hiding in the shadows, looking at these creatures with human upper bodies, fish on their lower bodies, gills on their faces, and gray skin, "What kind of monsters are they, fish-people?"

"Water Monsters, to be exact," said Heim, "I have read about these creatures, they live in the deep sea, and any intelligent creature that invades their territory will be killed, and in the water there is no creature that can match them. ”

"What are they doing?" Nack felt uncomfortable, even though the huge bubbles outside his body provided enough air while isolating the seawater, whether it was a giant or a sub-giant, it belonged to the earth, "Are there any rituals going to be held?"

Hundreds of meters away from the seaweed where they were hiding, dozens of water demons were forming a circle, and the water demon that had been punished by Knight stood right in the middle of them. These half-human, half-fish creatures held hands, and a faint light emerged from their bodies, but they did not enter the body of their companions in the center, and with the entry of these lights, the water demon standing in the center began to emit a strong light all over his body, and finally, when the light around his body was almost solid, an extremely sharp whistling sound came out of his mouth, like a sharp cone, 'shooting' towards the magic shield in the distance.

This kind of scream is one of the unique weapons of the water demons, even in the water, these whistling sounds can reach up to two kilometers away, even the rocks at the bottom of the water will be turned into powder under its action, and after merging the power of their companions, the scream of the water demon will definitely turn the internal organs of a dragon into rotten 'meat' - as the guardians of the crown prince, they are all the 'elite' of the water demon clan, as long as they do not leave the water, they are enough to crush ten times their own enemies.

The resistance of the sea did not affect the transmission of the sound in the slightest, and the awl-like scream hit the barrier protecting the Black Rock Island after a few seconds, and a wave of water ripples 'waves' then rose from the place where the two met, spreading rapidly, and then, a thin line of water pierced through the 'waves', and 'shot' at the water demons like arrows, and under the power of the rules, the water demons' attacks were rebounded again.

The water demons who were gathered in a circle fled in all directions in panic, they were well aware of the power of their attacks, and between the orders of their masters and their own lives, these water demons did not hesitate to choose the latter.

"Go back!" Knight screamed as he danced in the distance, "Go back and break that shield and get Haller back for me, or I'll break your tails......"

A large black shadow crept above him, swallowing him into his stomach as he transformed into Cato.

"They don't have the power to threaten us," Haim frowned at the giant beast that had no scruples about killing the water monster, "you don't have to, besides, that red-eyed water demon should be their royal family, and this will provoke a war." ”

"If we let these water goats away, they'll get the word out about it," Willy replied on Rhaeggar's behalf, "and we don't want anyone to know about the island." ”

"That's right," said the last of the water monsters, now devoured by Cato, reclaiming their shadows, and Rhaegar said to his companions, "This island means a lot to me, and I must keep its secrets until it grows to the point where it is not afraid of any threat." ”

"It's just a bunch of water monsters," Tomahawk said, "no different from the monsters we killed." He shook his head, regretting that he couldn't join the fight against the water monster.

"Rhaegar has killed them all," Nack reassured the Spirit, "I'm sure his magic will disguise it all well." He stretched out his broad palm and patted Heim's shoulder lightly, "Don't worry, it's not the first time we've fought against an enemy who outnumbered us. ”

However, Heim did not let this ease his worries, and since he had never interacted with humans, few people knew how difficult this retributive race was, and he happened to be one of them.

"These water demons," said Heim, "were once a branch of the 'elves', and in ancient times they were called the sea elves. ”

In the astonished gaze of the crowd, he continued: "As a result of their betrayal of the spirit gods, they have received a terrible curse, they can no longer leave the sea, and they have become ugly and greedy, but at the same time, it is this curse that makes them one of the most ferocious beings in the ocean. He took a deep breath, "What's more, after being cursed, they have a powerful sense ability, any slain water demon will send the murderer's information back to their clan before they die, after that, his compatriots will go crazy to retaliate, and the killing of one royal clan is enough to drive the entire clan crazy." ”

"That's good," cried the dwarf, "and I will be glad to wash my axe with the blood of these ugly fellows." He had completely forgotten that he was in the water, and that no one had learned to swim since the birth of the dwarven race.

"Are they hard to deal with?" Nack asked, "You said they can't get out of the sea, and as long as we stay on land, these water demons shouldn't be able to threaten us." ”

Heim shook his head: "You don't know about these creatures, in fact, if it weren't for the records in the texts that have been passed down from generation to generation by the 'elves', I would have found it hard to believe that a cursed race would have such great power - after countless experiments, these monsters have learned how to transfer the curse to their opponents at a certain cost, albeit only temporarily." He looked at Rhaegar and said, "This curse from the gods is definitely not something that other creatures can resist, even if we hide in the deepest part of the continent, the message from the dead water demon can still make it easy for its companions to find our whereabouts and cast a curse." ”
