The King of the Sea was sitting on the throne, with the patrolling guards and bloodline warriors standing solemnly on both sides. The five high-ranking priests and other high-level officials of the Sea Tribe all saluted the King of the Sea in a very orderly manner, even more respectfully than before the rise of the high priest.
Neptune's methods were actually far superior to those of the high priest. The reason why the high priest suppressed him was simply because the high priest's strength expanded too fast, causing Neptune to be unable to react in a short period of time.
After the death of the high priest, it is even more impossible for the priests of this series to play Neptune. To say that the strength of these five high priests is barely equivalent to the masters of the Earth Knight level, it is just because their magic is not systematic and has obvious
Weakness can only be regarded as the weakest level in the earth hierarchy.
But as long as they unite together, they will definitely be a force that cannot be ignored. At least it is not something that Neptune can control at will, but Neptune can eliminate this possible confrontation invisible with a simple differentiation.
The authority of the high priest was divided into three, and they restrained each other. There was no longer the possibility of challenging Neptune. This eliminated the hidden dangers of the dual leadership system. The other two suppressed first and then attracted each other. Over time, it was not impossible to completely win over the king's party.
, What’s even better is that the resources used to win over the five high-ranking priests were all captured by the high priest in the early stage with the giant deep-sea whale and his own group of people. After the death of the high priest, the power of the entire sea clan was even more concentrated in the Sea King.
On hand.
As for Sandro, who killed the high priest, he was hidden by Neptune in the name of punishment. No one had doubted some of the ulterior truths, but with Neptune's temptation and coercion, he could only remain silent. After all,
Neptune is originally orthodox, and the high priest has always given orders, which is a transgression. Now it is just returning to normal. And some die-hard loyalists who can't see the form will soon disappear without a trace.
In a few days, Neptune has basically completed the reshuffling and integration of the integrated forces of the Sea Clan. There may be some leftovers, but the impact is not significant. There is no one in the entire Sea Clan who can challenge the majesty of Neptune. Now he is gathering people.
Get up and get ready to think about human affairs.
In fact, for Neptune, he is unwilling to fight such a meaningless land war with humans. Although the relationship between the sea clan and humans is not harmonious, there is nothing irreconcilable or contradictory. Everyone's hostility is just due to two reasons.
Intelligent creatures living in different environments are naturally vigilant.
Originally maintaining relative peace with humans, collecting some tolls, and occasionally attacking human merchant ships to clean things up, the benefits gained were better than going to war directly. The benefits gained from going to war with humans on land were far less than the normal relationship before.
At that time, the high priest had other plans, but he did not need to rely on such things to gain prestige.
It is not difficult for him to come back to the negotiating table. As the top leader of the Sea Clan, Sea King is very realistic. He does not have any hatred towards human beings, but considers it more from the perspective of interests. So from the perspective of
In his heart, he is ready to negotiate with humans, but the war has already reached this point. If he takes the initiative to negotiate, he may not be able to negotiate a good price. He needs to negotiate with humans as a winner.
"The human fleet is still heading towards the southern clam farm. We must stop them no matter what."
"Sandro, please tell me about the situation."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Now Sandro is placed beside Neptune and all power has been taken away, but as the commander of the previous battle, Neptune still needs him to talk about the situation of the human army.
Others below, especially those who still had doubts about the death of the high priest, felt a little uncomfortable when Sandro came out. However, no one dared to mention it at the moment and could only wait for Sandro to finish explaining the situation.
.
"The strength of the human army is much stronger than before. In addition to the giant dragon, they also control a terrifying sea beast, and there is even a strong man who can kill the giant deep-sea whale in the water."
When Sandro said this, even Aquaman, who had just regained his power, had a slightly unnatural expression. He wanted to say how terrifying the sea beast was, and Aquaman had no intuitive comparison. But Sandro said that he could directly kill the deep sea monster.
The powerful giant whale is a bit scary. The fear of the giant whale in the deep sea is engraved in the heart of every sea tribe. At this moment, the Sea King even has the idea of negotiating directly with humans.
"However, we are still confident of defeating humans."
Having said this, Sandro paused for a moment. No matter what his current status was, after all, he had personally directed the war with humans and was one of the people with the most say. The attention of others was also attracted.
"Human beings are different from deep-sea giant whales. We have no way to use our numerical advantage to kill a dangerous ocean beast like a deep-sea giant whale. When a deep-sea giant whale feels threatened, it will run, and no one in the sea can stop it.
But the human race is different. Ships are the only support for human beings on this sea. Without ships, strong human beings will have no place to stand. As long as we don’t forget the losses, we will definitely defeat the human race.”
The translation of Sandro's words is that as long as there is enough cannon fodder to fill it, sooner or later those terrible human strongmen can be killed with cannon fodder. The Sky Knight can defeat ten thousand people or even one hundred thousand people. The sea tribe has a population of 100,000.
If there is a surplus, even if a million troops are lost, Neptune will not feel any physical pain.
"How many troops do we have now?"
"There are 600,000 ordinary warriors, 100,000 patrol guards, and less than 100 bloodline warriors. After a while, we should be able to recruit more warriors."
Although the combat effectiveness of the Hai Clan's army is somewhat inferior, their huge numbers can fully make up for their lack of quality, and their consumption has also depleted humanity.
"Let's go. We don't have to wait for the follow-up army. The three priests will accompany them and launch the attack at night."
As for the purpose of human beings, as long as you are not stupid, you can guess a little bit. The other party's goal is very clear, which is to take the sea clan's clam field. Human beings obviously have dragon knights. If they don't block the human fleet, wait until the dragon knights get close enough.
In terms of distance, the passive ones are the Sea Tribe.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Several high-ranking priests quickly fell into their roles. Anyway, it is not difficult for the Sea Clan to switch their allegiance to the Sea King.
The dispatch of hundreds of thousands of sea tribes caused the surrounding fish schools to shun away. Seeing hundreds of thousands of troops from the sea is definitely more shocking than the actions of hundreds of thousands of troops on land. It must be a scene that makes the scalp of those who are intensively afraid go numb.
…
On the dragon boat, Richard rode on the back of the red dragon and prepared to set off. Because of a misjudgment of Richard's ability to travel, the Hai Clan thought they could stop them in time.
"Brother-in-law, my life is entrusted to you."
"rest assured."
Richard said this with a relaxed look on his face. Although Parley could still trust Richard, after all, he was risking his own life, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried. This distance was far farther than the limit of movement of the Dragon Knight in the past.
Quite a few.
"But you guys have to hold on for at least one day."
Richard is not worried about himself. He is just on his way anyway. As soon as he shows up in Bengchang and the Sea Clan has passed on the message, the battle will naturally end. He is afraid that even the Sea Clan will not know his ability to rush and will think he is bluffing and continue.
When he attacked the fleet, the entire fleet was wiped out before he even reached the clam farm. Even if he destroyed the Hai Clan's clam farm out of revenge, it would still be a lose-lose situation.
"It's okay, we can still hold on for a day!"
Parley nodded fiercely. Although he was willing to risk his life, he was willing to risk his life. He had already ordered the fleet to move closer, stop moving forward, and concentrate supplies and troops on some ships to defend it, just waiting for the good news from Richard.
"Natalis, if things are in crisis, you should try your best to take Parley away. If that doesn't work, ensure your own safety first."
"Yes, sir."
Richard warned Natalis alone that there was no danger at all for him to go to the clam farm. The sea tribe could not threaten the dragon. There was no need to bring Natalis with him as an important combat force. He should keep her to ensure the fleet.
