"Your Excellency, our attack has been thwarted. "Some distance from the human fleet, the huge underwater fortress of the Burning Waves Kraken is leisurely floating in the water. In the middle of this pyramid-like section are the priests of the Lady of the Tides and the military personnel of the Burning Waves Clan. The person who spoke just now was one of the adjutants or assistants of Qu Wa, the highest military general of the Lietao tribe, and he was also the main commander of this vanguard battle. The human side was much more resistant than the Krakens had anticipated, and whether it was anchoring to stabilize their positions, lighting torches on their ships, and building pallets between hulls to provide reinforcements, the Krakens realized that they were not fighting a group of brave opponents.

This is not surprising to Quwa. He never thought that this war would end so easily, otherwise the goddess would not have instructed her priests to mobilize the power of the entire clan to complete the battle. However, this did not mean that the Kraken General would be embarrassed by this, as neither he nor the other Burning Waves were convinced that the outcome of this war would end in victory for the followers of the Lady of the Tides. He nodded, his eyes scanning the chessboard in front of him, confirming the situation. This kind of chessboard is similar to the sand table used by humans in military warfare, the difference is that the sand table of the Kraken is three-dimensional, and the chess pieces that symbolize the enemy and your own forces are floating at different heights in the water, which is also in line with the more complex and changeable environment of the underwater world than on land.

"Can't the priests help?" said the general, looking at the tidal priests who were standing on the third step. In fact, the Kraken's initial battle plan was not like this, and they actually had more and better options than landing battles with huge casualties. But these options were thwarted by the fact that the three Witches' huge warships and the Witches on them used their magic to calm the waters beneath the mist, depriving the scorching Sirens of their agility and impact. Even, according to the priests' previous promises, the fog that enveloped the human side should have been thicker at this time, but now the humans just lit a fire was enough to light their own deck, which was a far cry from the help promised by the priests before. Of course, Quwa didn't blame the priests for this, he knew they had their own problems to deal with.

Sure enough, the female kraken, who had previously handed over the military love tablet to the chief priest, came to the general's side with an aggrieved look, and her hands firmly held the previous tablet. This behavior was somewhat strange, but this was not the time to think about it, and the soldiers and other priests took it as a sign that the young priest was too nervous, "Your Excellency Quwa, those witches' magic is too evil, and they disturb the normalcy of the tides around here. The other priests are trying to find a way to undo this evil sorcery, and I'm afraid you and your army will have to hold out a little longer. ”

Quwa didn't say anything more, the society of the Lietao was like this, the priests would take care of the mysteries, and all the warriors and the other Lietao had to do was do their job. However, this does not mean that they are absolutely separated from each other, "Please ask the priests on my behalf, do you need the warriors to attack those three ships to influence the witches?"

The priestess hesitated, but she soon heard a voice coming from the current, "Priests, thank you for your kindness, but those three ships are at the heart of evil sorcery, and sending warriors there will only increase casualties." You just need to keep putting pressure on the human fleet, and the priests will soon be able to deal with the witches. ”

"Understood, I wish you all the best. After the general finished speaking, he turned his attention back to the situation on the battlefield, "Here, here and here, increase the input of troops, and withdraw this part of the troops as appropriate, but do not let the other side discover it in a short time." We need to pull their energy so that they can't do it all the time. In addition, find someone to organize a team to destroy the human pallets, and try to cut their anchors. Report back to me when you're done. ”

The adjutant who had received the order departed, and the young priestess was slow to return to the priest's ranks. She hugged the slate, turning the cracked side towards herself, looking down and hesitating about something. However, because Quwa and the other soldiers were focused on the situation on the battlefield, they did not notice the strangeness of this priest for a while. The priestess struggled, and she looked back at her colleagues who were standing silently, knowing that they were merging their consciousness with the tide in this silent and static way, and she should have been in their queue, as a priest who could walk up to the twenty-nine steps, she had the qualifications. But since she picked up the slate, her heart has been flooded, and these raging waves have prevented her from sinking into the spiritual realm to fulfill her priestly mission, so she has to take the initiative to ask Ying to take up the task of liaison with the soldiers.

And the reason why she was in a state of agitation was actually very simple, the stone tablet that was seen by the chief priest was cracked, which was a bad omen! However, since the chief priest who sat on the red coral throne did not speak himself, and did not even say a word of rebuke after he had hidden the stone tablet himself, does that mean that this evil omen is not to be revealed? But if it is really unrecognizable, why did the high priest pass it down? A terrible conjecture was forming in her mind, that it was not that the high priest did not want to tell them about the omen, but that she could not. And the existence that would make it impossible for the High Priest to speak out is only one, Lady Tide. The Lady of the Tides forbade her priests to convey the message of the future of this war to her followers.

Why? The poor priest couldn't think of a plausible explanation. But she did not dare to tell the other priests what she had discovered, for she did not know what the chief priest meant. After thinking about it, she felt that the only person she could trust in this matter was General Quwa. After all, this slate was supposed to be returned to the general's hands, and she was the one who withheld it herself, perhaps this message was originally meant to be conveyed to Quwa. Just when she finally made up her mind to hand over the slate in her hand to Quwa...

"Jolani, we need you. The Goddess's will is still close to being executed, and she tells you to do it. ”

Young Jolani's body trembled, and she clung to the stone tablet, and finally, giving in to the goddess's command, turned to join the priests.
