Chapter Seventy-Nine: Encounter

The pitch-black ink could not block Richot's vision, the black serpent magic chased him straight towards the other party, the low spell sound in his mouth echoed in the sea, the magic gathered again, a thick whip composed of seawater locked the big octopus violently, and the barbs on the whip were like tiny hooks hooked to the soft body of the big octopus.

The big octopus monster had to struggle violently, but the weakness after the fury made it unable to break free, and even the whip became tighter and tighter, and the boneless body was squeezed together.

Leaning in front of him, the black snake faded, and the wand in Licourt's hand continued to wave, and a huge seawater harpoon quickly took shape and stabbed at the big octopus!

"Poof"

The spikes at both ends of the harpoon stabbed two huge wounds on the body of the large octopus, and then Lycott withdrew the mana supply, and the harpoon composed of seawater collapsed, and the two huge wounds completely leaked into the seawater, and various strange organs were squeezed out of the wounds with the squeezing of the magic whip.

Rao is like this, the strong vitality makes this big octopus not die immediately, the remaining tentacles are still twisting, but there is no longer the slightest combat power.

After the octopus's writhing amplitude became smaller, Licourt controlled the black snake to bite its body and quickly swam back to the middle of the kelp, since the twenty-meter level monster had appeared here, and the magic showed a one-way flow, there was no doubt that the Abyssal Territory was leaking.

If it weren't for the fact that this monster was a rare piece of experimental equipment, Lycott wouldn't have gone to great lengths to kill it.

On the other side of the Gollum Plain, Connors's group of merfolk had rested enough and set off again.

"It's close to the middle of the kelp, so let's go around it."

Connors pointed in this direction and said that there was no map at all, and the specific road conditions were said by a mermaid who had been wandering around for many years and had joined the Seaweed Division.

"Hmm"

Avriline answered on the side, but then frowned

"It's easy to run into monsters coming up from behind. ”

Originally, they were straight back, but suddenly swam sideways, and if there happened to be a wave of monsters swimming from this direction, wouldn't it be that the two sides would encounter each other directly.

"It's true that it was difficult for us to catch up with us on the road before we went straight back and more than an hour in advance, so the real danger is only starting now, and I need to trouble you, but it's a pity that we fell out with the seaweed group, otherwise it would be so dangerous, just hide in the middle of the kelp."

"Well, I'll be careful, but with the personality of the middle of the kelp, even if there is no falling out, he will not allow us to enter the shelter, and even if he agrees, the chief probably won't dare to let the inhabitants in."

Avriline said pointedly.

Connors smiled, he didn't dare to take the inhabitants of the tribe into the middle of the kelp, in case he was used as cannon fodder to resist the monsters, there was no way to resist, it was better than the current situation.

"I'll help watch too, you know I can 'see' the monster, don't worry so much"

The arrival of a large group of monsters would cause a drastic change in the magic particles, and Connors could not only see but also hear, and in any case, he would have discovered that if he had Cleveland's ability, there were few places he could not reach with the size of these two oceans.

Then the two mermaids monitored the surroundings at intervals, and after about half an hour, they finally encountered a dangerous creature, a sea shark, but it was not a monster just an ordinary creature, but the red eyes indicated that something was wrong with its state, and it rushed straight from the side of the mermaid, a little crazy.

"This one is very similar to the big tiger fish I encountered before, I'm afraid it was infected by the abyssal breath," Avrine whispered.

The four-meter-long sea shark completely ignored the fact that it only had one fish, and the small team in front of it had a huge difference in strength of two hundred mermaids, as if its mind was full of food, and there was nothing else to hold on.

But it's true, only with enough food can it safely transform into a monster, otherwise it will only die a painful death.

"Shark!"

"It's a sharp-horned shark, it's going to bite us!"

The mermaids began to stir, shouting loudly with frightened expressions, and the whole team immediately became chaotic, and some children who had never seen the world could not help crying

......

The hidden dangers mentioned by Avriline are now revealed, and the strange environment in the wild has lifted the hearts of the tribesmen, and the mood is like a bucket that has always been filled* can make it explode with a little spark.

Seeing such a scene, Connors frowned, the most taboo thing in the wild was to mess with himself, especially when he could clearly hear that several merfolk in the team seemed to be deliberately spreading their fear to other merfolk.

Fear can't be allowed to continue,

"Shut up!"

Connors's voice exploded suddenly, overshadowing the cacophony of the entire team, and fell silent like a duck being choked by the neck, if I remember correctly, this was the first time that Connors had been angry with his inhabitants since he came, although it was rapid, but the deterrence caused was extremely great.

After a few stern glances at the mermaids who were talking loudly just now, Connors nodded to Avriline, who made a quick move, and at the same time as the spell sounded, a three-meter-long water blade was formed, just an ordinary shark, and it was not a social creature, it was easily solved, but the two blood-stained corpses were likely to attract* Annoyed, Connors called a few stronger merfolk to throw the two corpses into the distance, and he swam in front of all the merfolk to reiterate the importance of discipline, and made it clear that if he deliberately spread fear, he would no longer be a mermaid in the seaweed.

Chiefs are free to dispose of any inhabitant of their tribe, and this behavior is mostly protected by sea whales.

Seeing that all the merfolk looked cautious, Connors shook his head, he was not used to using the chief's deterrence to bully other merfolk, and tyranny since ancient times would not end well.

Although the tribe is small, he is also trying his best to be a leader, but now all the mermaids are facing a life and death crisis, and the monster tide is like a sharp sword hanging high above the heads of all the mermaids, and now what he needs is to order and prohibit!

Soon the mermaid who disposed of the corpse returned, and the group set off again, but it seemed much more disciplined.

However, the appearance of this shark is like turning on a switch, and then one after another appeared creatures infected by the abyss breath, fortunately, they are not big and they are all lone wanderers, which are easily solved by Aveline, the only dangerous situation is a group of sharp barracudas, this kind of social fish is small and fast, Aveline can only block most of them, and the rest bypass her and attack the mermaid team behind, injuring a lot of mermaids.

Thankfully, Connors brought all the tribe's medicines with him during his travels, and he didn't die from his injuries.

......

Three days later, the group tiredly circled to the back of the middle of the kelp, where there was a watchtower mountain, which was the meeting place that had been agreed upon.

"Chief!"

Before they got close to the top of Watchtower Mountain, a few familiar figures swam down, it was Maypot and Jer, and many of the mermaids they led were fishermen or adult males, although there was no magician in charge, but the speed was the fastest, they had arrived here a day ago, and set up a temporary gathering place, and just now they saw Connors and others swimming down from the top of the mountain to greet them.

"You've come, are there any dangers on the way?"

There was no time to rest, Connors asked hurriedly, this has always been his worry, for fear of hearing some bad news, the seaweed is weak and can't withstand many blows.

"Fortunately, there were a few fish attacks in the middle, but there were no monsters"

Mabel said.

"Huh~Goo"

Connors spat out a mouthful of seawater, and if nothing was lost, three teams arrived safely, leaving Thomas and Cleveland.

In the afternoon of the same day, Tumas led two hundred mermaids over, and they encountered a five-meter monster, but fortunately, with Tumas in charge, this five-meter monster was easily dealt with, and the inhabitants of the tribe were not harmed at all.

Now only Cleveland is left.

The whole night passed, and there was no news, and Connors was a little impatient, and his heart was even more faintly worried.

Until the evening of the next day, a group of sparse mermaids swam from the north side of Watchtower Mountain, and when they looked at it with one eye, there were at most more than 100 mermaids, and Connors immediately chuckled in his heart and hurriedly swam down the mountain.

Before he could get closer, a figure from the group of merfolk swam out quickly, and with a grunt he was half-kneeling in front of Connors

"Chief, I have failed to live up to your expectations"

The voice was Cleveland, and he was ashamed at this point.

"What's wrong? What about the other merfolks?"

Looking at the merfolk standing behind Cleveland, Connors's voice trembled slightly, and he could know what was going on even without asking.

"Chief, we've encountered a small group of swordfish monsters"

Cleveland slowly told the truth of the matter, their team was unfortunately encountered a group of swordfish monsters, there were more than a dozen, although the two-meter level, but the swordfish was already famous in the ocean, and the strength of becoming a monster was several times greater.

And most importantly, there are no magicians in this team!

In the face of more than a dozen swordfish monsters, the mermaids had no way to resist at all, they could only scatter and escape, and in the end, there were only more than 100 mermaids who could be gathered.

"Chief, we can't blame Big Brother Cleveland, if it weren't for the fact that he lured away the five swordfish monsters alone, we wouldn't have had time to escape, and Big Brother Cleveland was also injured a lot"

Ami watched her sweetheart kneel at the bottom of the sea, and said timidly in distress that she couldn't care about Connors's identity.

Connors then noticed that Cleveland had a scar on his back, which had been stitched together by a mermaid with thin threads, and this wound took up most of his back, and it was easy to imagine how dangerous the situation was at that time.

Jasmine, who was carried out by Jer, saw this scene, and purple tears couldn't stop flowing.

"No, I don't blame Cleveland, encountering a swordfish group monster is something that no one can imagine, Cleveland, you've done good enough"

Even if his whole body was soaked in seawater, Connors still felt that his throat was dry, this is more than a hundred mermaids, it is so easy to disappear, in the modern era of the earth, except for the war, where more than a hundred people died at once, I am afraid that it will shake the whole world, but here, it is really common.

"Mepot"

Connors shouted

"In"

"You hurry up and arrange for people to treat the wounded, enough merfolk have died, I don't want other merfolk to die!"

"Yes"
