And just as Qin Huang said, when the tide came, the focus of the battle appeared in the floating ice area.
This is the first time for the mages and the world to see the true appearance of the tide. Murlocs are constantly rolling in, fierce sharks, and octopuses dancing with huge tentacles. The complexity of the tide team is beyond everyone's imagination.
Most of these creatures come in chaos and without formation. Their intelligence is limited, but they are not afraid of life and death. However, once these creatures, which are usually not taken seriously by mages, form a group, their explosive power is beyond imagination.
All kinds of spells shine from the sky. With the support of battleships, the mages are not stingy with their mana. However, even though they exert their strength to their fullest, the number of enemies does not necessarily decrease at all.
The ocean is a treasure trove of life that far exceeds that of land, and there are so many creatures it can control.
Over time, the defense line in the floating ice area opened further and further, and the cold ocean surface was filled with fish carcasses. Although the mages won an overwhelming combat advantage, they were unable to curb the pace of the tide.
"Your Excellency Qin Huang, do you think these sea people are like pets driven by humans?"
Morpheus looked at the one-sided battle below thoughtfully: "Look, they didn't eat the corpses."
Qin Huang was slightly stunned and thought quickly. When Morpheus mentioned it, he quickly understood the metaphor in these words. None of the fish creatures that came up at this time had complete intelligence. According to the instinct of the creatures,
, they should appear to be competing for dead fish.
However, let alone fighting for food, this sea area was almost dyed red with blood. But not a single carnivorous fish stopped. These fish just rushed forward. This intention was so strong that they did not care about life, death, hunger and thirst, and something was obviously wrong.
The only answer is that someone is now manipulating them behind the scenes, and like humans driving sheepdogs and horses, these fish are being consumed as fighting pets.
"Lord, do you mean to kill the mermaids who control them?" Qin Huang asked. He knew that it was the mermaids who set off the tide. They are the most intelligent and powerful species in the underwater world, and are good at charm and control. No matter what, it is them.
Control behind the scenes.
"No, I think it would be more beneficial to us to capture some high-level mermaids alive." Morpheus nodded: "If we can know how they control fish, it will be helpful for the current and future battles."
A profound mage. When encountering an incident, he will inevitably think in a 'mage' way. Morpheus is a professional mage. When he discovered the problem, he was the first to think of cracking it, catching the opponent and forcing him to control the fish.
method, and then use magic to imitate and crack it.
"..."
However, Qin Huang thought for a moment and shook his head with a wry smile: "You can try it, but there is little hope."
Magic is said to be omnipotent. However, it is not yet mature enough to change everything. The vampires are an example. Research on races and their respective characteristics has always been full of mysteries. Qin Huang knows that mermaids are born with the ability to control many fish. This innate talent
It is difficult to be cracked by mages.
But everything needs to be tested, and there is no harm in it. Unfortunately, their plan is destined to fail, and there is no trace of the mermaid behind the incoming enemies.
Deep in the vast sea, a song came from the giant foam-covered mermaid city - the song was ethereal and graceful, filled with sadness and longing. It sounded like a girl crying, but it made the fish on the outskirts of the city restless.
of fighting.
"The Six Priests are so awesome. Such sad songs are full of morale." A fish-tailed girl who was playing looked towards the center of the city, which was a shell-shaped amphitheater, and the singing came from inside.
"What's so great about this? Only the new ten priests are so powerful!" Her companion, another mermaid girl, said: "The six priests are much worse than the ten priests."
"Ten Priests?"
The first mermaid to speak showed an unhappy expression: "That guy who can't even compare to humans? How can she compare with the Six Priests!"
"That guy just knows more songs than we do, and he was lucky enough to be favored by the Queen."
As he spoke, the mermaid showed a jealous look. The mermaid tribe is ruled by a queen and ten priests under her. Since ancient times, it has been a practice to determine the priest's seat by singing. Adult mermaids all have different singing voices.
For example, the power of the six priests is to boost morale. However, when the ten priests were elected to sing, they did not inspire any amazing power.
This makes many mermaids feel unwilling.
However, the mermaid girl who spoke for the Ten Priests obviously knew something about the inside story. She laughed and said, "Don't underestimate the Ten Priests. The team that melted the iceberg this time was jointly formed by her and Her Majesty the Queen. Do you see what the characteristics of that team are?"
?”
Features?
The first girl recalled in astonishment that she really noticed something unusual: "There was no one in charge of that team?"
As a prelude to the attack on land, no priest took the lead in the team that went to melt the iceberg, which made other mermaids full of doubts.
"Yes, there is no one to command, and there is no need for anyone to command." Another girl pinched her companion's nose and said with a smile: "This is the power of the Six Priests. She can control the troops from a distance. Her Majesty the Queen likes her the most!
"
"Ah? She is so powerful?" The girl whose nose was pinched forgot the pain for a moment, but a wave of doubt flashed in her heart - why would such a powerful priest lose to a human?
But then again, human singing is completely different from that of mermaids. No matter how good they sing, they cannot turn into power, but mermaids can actually convert their singing into power.
Mermaids have made a living by singing for generations. From protecting themselves, to establishing a country, to enslaving other life forms, singing has become their weapon. This weapon now exists for war.
Many mermaids want to use war to test their singing. This is their favorite tradition, and the priests are the best among them. However, the newly promoted Ten Priests are an unexpected figure.
This mermaid who had a brief relationship with Xia Han hated war. She never thought that one day she would become the leader of the war. However, she still participated and was elected as the youngest priest with her singing voice.
She knew very well that this war initiated by Poseidon was inevitable. Only by being in a high position could she have a chance to seize peace. She had no interest in the mainland at all. She just wanted to sing. If she could be in this
It would be great to meet that child again during the war. He will definitely make people around him understand the charm of the song itself. (To be continued...)
