Chapter 863 Mermaid Mutant
"Your Excellency Thor." A wizard ran over and said to Thor respectfully, "The black tide has withdrawn ten nautical miles. The wizard responsible for monitoring has issued an announcement that the black tide has ended. Do you want to stay here now? Or go back Eternal Night Palace?"
Thor was confused now. He looked at Emperor Ai Luo who was flying from the sea to the coast, and he doubted the warning of the diary.
Everything developed so smoothly, and the wizards of the Nephrite continent once again resisted the attack of the black tide. Now that the crisis has been resolved, the wizards at sea are returning to the coast one after another, preparing to pack up and go back.
"Is it because I completely misunderstood that this Kuroshio attack is not the masquerade mentioned in the diary? Or is it because I asked Floco to come over, which caused the predicted future to change?"
Just when Thor was thinking about whether he should call Sander over to continue his plan, the sea... suddenly boiled.
Thor immediately pushed away the wizard standing in front of him, took two steps forward, and walked to the edge of the cliff.
Before the wizard who was pushed away by Thor had time to be surprised, he was frightened by the situation of the sea behind him.
"I, I will report..."
He didn't even have time to say who he was reporting to before he left anxiously.
The Black Flame Emperor Ai Luo, who was about to reach the shore, immediately stopped and looked down at his feet.
The sea surface has become calm due to the receding of the black tide, and the Tribunal's control circle has not yet been removed, so the sea surface only fluctuates slightly due to the current.
But now, tiny bubbles emerged from the water, rising to the surface and exploding with a "pop".
There were more and more bubbles, getting bigger and bigger, like a pot of boiling water, with firewood still being filled under the stove.
Thor also came to the sea, more than a hundred meters away from the Black Flame Emperor, and he also looked at the sea.
"The temperature of the seawater has not risen. Is it an earthquake?"
He used his mental power to scan the depths of the sea.
Not far away, the Black Flame Emperor had already rushed into the sea.
Not only him, there were several second-level wizards present who also rushed in.
This sea area is very close to the red sea trees, so there is absolutely no problem.
Soon, more people gathered on the sea.
It’s just that the first batch of people who entered the seabed have not returned yet, including the Black Flame Emperor, so although the remaining people are anxious, no one dares to move.
The bubbles on the sea surface became denser and denser, but Thor's mental scan found nothing unusual.
There is no spiritual power of mutation, no magical power of chaos.
Even apart from the unusually strong breath of life, Saul found almost no noticeable abnormalities.
"Go down and take a look?" Sol narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, black shadows suddenly rose from the bottom of the sea.
Those black shadows broke through the confinement of the sea at extremely fast speeds and flew into the sky.
Only then did Thor see clearly that these black figures were actually the wizards who had just entered the bottom of the sea.
But their faces were full of disbelief at this time.
"What happened?" other wizards asked loudly.
"Mermaids, mermaids are alienated! They are all alienated!"
The answerer's voice was actually trembling.
"boom!"
Huge waves suddenly exploded from the sea, like a heavyweight cannonball falling into the sea.
The waves rushed into the sky, and soon they were almost gone, and Wizard Iroh emerged from the waves.
What none of the other wizards expected was that the fourth-level Black Flame Emperor actually showed a trace of embarrassment.
Thor's eyes narrowed.
Even though it was only for a moment, he still discovered the flaw in Emperor Ai Luo.
The other party's mental power briefly experienced a break.
It was as if the mask covering his face had cracked.
A little bit of the true face behind the mask was revealed.
The Black Flame Emperor in front of me is indeed Stuart pretending to be the emperor!
Thor didn't have the energy to think about where the Black Flame Emperor had gone. It was impossible for a fourth-level wizard to disguise himself specifically to deal with him.
The defensive array behind him was still shining, and Thor noticed an even bigger black shadow rising from the bottom of the sea.
Thinking of the death warning about Stuart, he immediately rushed forward and came to Stuart who was at the front.
"The situation at the bottom of the sea is unknown. Let's retreat to the back first." Saul said to Stuart in a low voice.
Stuart glanced at Saul in surprise, his expression almost unbearable.
But he quickly showed a look of pride mixed with disdain, "Since the situation is not right, naturally I am standing in front."
Thor's heart sank. He knew that what Stuart said and did now was more in line with the identity of the Black Flame Emperor.
If there is danger, the fourth-level wizard will be the first to run away, and then other wizards involved in the defensive war will probably follow suit.
The more accidents happen, the more someone needs to be there to calm things down.
Stuart has already put on the "mask" of the Black Flame Emperor at this time, so he cannot do anything that lowers morale while wearing the mask.
Saul also understood Stuart's thoughts and knew that unless he exposed his identity on the spot, the other party would definitely not leave with him.
Are you just going to watch Stuart die like this?
At this moment, the bubbles finally stopped rising from the sea surface and the boiling disappeared, but an extremely powerful pressure spread from the bottom of the sea.
The culprit who had just sent many wizards to explore the sea and was so frightened that they escaped from the deep sea finally appeared!
Thor's eyes widened when he saw the guy emerging from the sea.
"What's this?"
What emerged from the sea was not the modified mermaid that Thor had seen many times before.
Instead, it was a huge dark object that could not be discerned from its outline.
The surface of the giant object seemed to be covered with a layer of mud, which was being peeled off by the sea water as it emerged from the sea.
"Giant mud monster?"
The monster looked like a pile of mud with no visible limbs, torso, or head, but Thor could feel the extremely strong vitality from the opponent.
Just like how he felt when he used his mental power to explore the bottom of the sea.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have thought that such spiritual power was emanating from the mud monster in front of you.
The mud monster is moving, but the bones and muscles supporting its movement are invisible. And even though the mud on its body is always dripping to the sea, its size is constantly expanding.
"That's not mud, it's mermaid carrion." Stuart, who was still performing on the side, told Thor softly.
"The carrion of a mermaid? With such a large volume, are all the mermaids on the bottom of the sea...all dead?"
It seemed that he was afraid that Saul would find out that there was something wrong with his identity, so Stuart said nothing.
But Stuart didn't say much, and naturally someone spoke up to tell everyone what happened.
Although the wizard Roye in charge of this area is not here at this time, the Tribunal has already learned a lot of experience from many years of fighting against the Black Tide.
Almost immediately, someone temporarily replaced Royer and became the new commander.
That was one of the wizards who once went deep into the sea.
The surprise on his face had been replaced by anger. With the help of witchcraft, he shouted loudly: "This monster is the fleshy mud formed by the corpses of a large number of mutated and dead mermaids. Their resentful spirits huddled inside the fleshy mud, polluted by the black tide." Block it and don't let it continue to develop, otherwise the remaining black tide pollution in the sea will become the nourishment to help it become stronger! Now kill the mermaid mutant with all your strength!"
