Chapter 3134 Cunning
It was also when the army of the Western Islands was advancing with great success on the battlefield of the Western Sea.
As the strongest man in the Western Islands, Locke, together with the sixth-level knight Volta, the star beast Pulao, and the sixth-level black magician Nigel, came to a giant cave in the deep sea.
The height of this deep-sea cave is over a thousand meters, and its depth is tens of thousands of miles.
Through proprietary detection instruments, it can be discovered that this bottomless giant cave actually runs through two-thirds of the vast nearby sea area, and even reaches the deepest point into the center of the earth.
"Is this the lair of Jormungandr? Is there no sign of life?" In this deep and empty cave, Locke only stayed for a moment and felt the deep loneliness and emptiness.
This special environmental atmosphere is also the norm in the deep sea of the Neptune Realm. However, as the home of Jörmungandr, the overlord-level Neptune, it gives people a stronger feeling.
"Yes, because there is still part of Jörmungandr's aura remaining, no sea kings or marine creatures dare to approach nearby." Nigel said.
A total of four level six strong men came to trouble Jörmungandr, which was enough to give this overlord-level sea king enough face.
But unfortunately, Locke and others were in vain.
According to the investigation of the sixth-level black magician Nigel, Jörmungandr has left this deep sea cave for at least two years.
Leaving his nest early two years ago is enough to show Jormungandr's caution and prudence.
And this time the attack was in vain. Next time Locke and others want to find Jörmungandr, it will probably be more difficult.
This guy doesn't even want his own nest. Who knows where he will hide.
"Could he have escaped from this world?" Volta asked suddenly.
Being roped in by Locke as a man, Volta naturally didn't help for free. (first published by Zongheng)
Among the groups of black magicians and black knights in the Western Islands, Volta and his former Dragon Knights of the Moonstone Legion are undoubtedly the most hard-working and serious group of 'mercenaries'.
Because of the special identities of black magicians and black knights, they do not have the right to carve up the world's subsequent development resources like Locke and other powerful men from the Western Islands.
Therefore, the hard-earned magic coins and other tradable resources are the rewards Locke pays them.
Calling the black knights and black magicians, who total nearly a million in number, as ‘mercenaries’ is undoubtedly a realistic adjective.
The real legion combat strength of the black magicians and black knights in the black domain is in the millions, because what those black magicians are most indispensable for are various corpse-training synthetic beasts and other enslaved servants.
As a sixth-level knight, Volta has earned at least the equivalent of 20 million magic coins from Locke through more than thirty years of struggle.
This is only the income of Volta alone, and does not include the group of dragon knights with outstanding combat power under his command.
As for the sixth-level black magician Nigel, this guy makes more money.
After all, Volta worked tirelessly to get rewards from Locke by killing powerful sea people, destroying stubborn sea kingdoms, and occupying territorial areas.
Nigel, on the other hand, directly benefited from a percentage of the war proceeds by researching the new Black Death virus.
In terms of real income over the past few decades, Nigel's is more than four times that of Volta!
Of course, as the actual controller of the Western Islands, Locke and his Western Islands forces have made more money in these years!
Many large and medium-sized forces in the wizarding world have complained about this. They worked hard in the Zhonghai battlefield, but the benefits were all taken away by the Western Islands in the West Sea battlefield.
It is foreseeable that after the Neptune Realm War is over, the Western Islands will inevitably have to give up part of the subsequent development interests of the Neptune Realm because of the large amount of immediate profits gained during the war.
Locke was also mentally prepared for this.
He has already earned enough, and there is no need to have trouble with other forces in the wizarding world because of some extraneous things.
Although he has a good relationship with other sixth-level powerhouses in the wizarding world, sometimes interests cannot be sorted out through personal relationships.
After all, behind those sixth-level powerhouses in the wizarding world, there are corresponding forces that need to be managed, and there are also a large number of low-level knights and magicians that need to be cultivated.
Finally, looking around this giant deep-sea cave, Locke shook his head and said, "Let's go. Jormungandr should not have left this world yet, because we have a dimensional barrier that has been monitoring this world."
"As long as it hasn't left, we will cause trouble for it!" Locke said firmly.
His words were specifically meant for Pulao to hear.
Pulao, who had transformed into a human form, couldn't help but soften his cold face after hearing Locke's words.
In fact, Locke and others have made more preparations to destroy Jörmungandr. In addition to the four sixth-level powerhouses on the scene, there is also a sixth-level peak star beast, the prisoner cow, who is ready to join the battlefield at any time.
It can be said that as long as Jörmungandr dares to show up, it will inevitably die.
Unfortunately, this earthly python is too cunning.
It sensed danger in advance and escaped to nowhere.
...
Fifty years later.
After leading the army of the Western Islands to conquer the entire Western Sea, Locke did not lead his army further north to the North Sea Bingyang, the home of the overlord-level Sea King Okanagan.
Nor did they advance eastward to help the Zhonghai battlefield, which was still in an anxious situation.
Instead, he chose to lead a considerable portion of the Western Islands Level 4
The above powerful men crossed to the East China Sea to help Master Sarafa's Mamet Alliance fight.
Most planes are spherical. This is common knowledge that all knights and magicians above level one know.
Therefore, Locke's cross-theater battle did not actually span a long distance. He just continued to move west and arrived at the East China Sea battlefield where the Mamet United Alliance was located.
Even because of the different geographical locations, when Locke led his army to the battlefield of the East China Sea, he almost stabbed the indigenous sea tribe in the back of the East China Sea.
In an instant, the indigenous sea tribe in the East China Sea battlefield also plummeted thousands of miles away.
The threat of the Black Death Virus to these indigenous sea tribes is really too great.
Even the invaders from the wizarding world got the customary title of demonic creatures - devils from the mouths of the native sea tribe of the Neptune Realm.
Calling opponents devils is actually the fear and cowardice shown by the weak towards the strong who are unable to resist them.
To the powerful invaders of the wizarding world, the fragile nature of the native creatures of the Neptune Realm after peeling off their tough shells is not much different from the frogs waiting to be dissected on their test benches.
In the process of helping the Mamet Alliance, Locke sent the sixth-level black knight Volta to assist Sarafa and Lilith of the Mamet Alliance in encircling and suppressing the overlord-level Sea King Charybdis.
But this overlord-level sea king was as cunning as Jormungandr, and was ready to escape in advance.
In the end, as a trophy, only a few tentacles of Charybdis were taken.
It can be regarded as enriching the experimental collections of Sarafa, Lilith and others.
