"The Nether Shark is attacking!" Duer's expression changed. The conch sound was the highest level warning, which meant that the attacking Nether Shark was very powerful.
"Didn't you say there are still five days left? Why are we here now?" Carly's face suddenly turned pale. She was very aware of the horror of the ghost shark. She thought she wouldn't have to worry about it when she went to the capital this time. Unexpectedly, before they set off, the Netherworld Shark came to attack.
"Carly, you stay at home and don't run around. I'm going to check on the situation." Duer picked up the long spear gun standing aside, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Durr..." Carly reached out and grabbed the corner of Durr's clothes.
"Huh?" Duer looked back at her.
"Be careful." Carly let go and whispered.
"No big deal, I'll be back soon." Duer reached out and rubbed Carly's hair, said with a relaxed smile, turned and left.
The sound of the conch horn spread throughout the town of Freir, and a light blue light shield rose from the town, locking the town in it.
Hundreds of mermaid warriors gathered outside the town, looking solemnly into the dark distance.
"Mayor, the news came back saying that a large ghost shark is swimming towards our town with two medium-sized ghost sharks. They will arrive soon. What should we do now?" A mermaid looked at the one standing in the center. The old-looking mermaid said, looking quite anxious.
The expressions of all the mermaids are also quite sad. The most powerful among them, Mayor Cator, is only an eighth-level expert. In addition, there are only three sixth-level mermaids in the town. The rest of the mermaids are not strong enough. Below level six.
Although Cator's strength is at the same level as that of the large ghost shark, the ghost shark's terrifying ghost whirlwind and recovery ability are naturally invincible among those at the same level.
With Freir's defensive capabilities, there is no way it can survive in the hands of these three ghost sharks for too long. Once it loses its defense, the town will face catastrophe.
Cator rose slowly, turned to look at the mermaid warriors, and said loudly: "I have sent the news back to Rock City and Capital City. I believe that reinforcements will come to support us soon. What we have to do is to wait before the reinforcements arrive. , drag the three ghost sharks and prevent them from entering Freir!"
"Dumped!"
The mermaid warriors responded in unison, and their morale suddenly rose!
…
Around the altar, the high priest was calling the names and distributing the mud shells. Every powerful mermaid whose name was called was happy, holding the mud shells respectfully, took a deep breath, and then stepped into the shelter. In the water space, he put the mud shell into his mouth, chewed it, and then swallowed it.
"Cough cough cough!"
"Ho ho ho!"
Various choking sounds could be heard endlessly. Each mermaid covered his throat and coughed out tears, but he still didn't dare to spit out any of them.
This is the magic medicine that Her Royal Highness the Princess obtained from the hands of the chosen one after going through many difficulties and dangers. It is also the hope of their mermaid tribe. Even if it is difficult to swallow, you must swallow it and pretend to be happy with it. .
"Don't eat it dry. In fact, it's not that hard to swallow if you mix it with sea water." Jina looked at the blushing mermaids and quickly warned.
After hearing this, the mermaids quickly put their heads out and took a big sip of sea water. Sure enough, after soaking in the sea water, the mud shell that was as hard as a stone and difficult to swallow softened a lot and became easier to swallow.
What's even more amazing is that although the mud shell has no taste, after swallowing it, it turns into a stream of heat and melts into the limbs and bones. A strange feeling gradually appears, the steps begin to become light, and the body seems to want to move on its own. It generally floats.
The mermaids who were holding their breath in the water-sheltered space began to have a magical feeling. The air that was originally unbreathable began to become a little friendly, and gradually they could even get some oxygen by inhaling through their noses to relieve the feeling of holding their breath.
The change is slow but clearly visible.
The high priest, the king, and the queen were the first to eat the mud shells. At this time, they were already trying to expel the seawater around their bodies, and then tried to breathe air in the water-proof space.
Although it is more awkward than breathing directly in the water, and the air breathed into the body through the nose seems a bit clumsy and blocked in the body, this novel feeling still surprises them. The mermaid tribe can breathe air for thousands of years. The ancestors of the mermaid clan were thinking about something, but they got it after taking a piece of magic medicine.
Happiness comes so easily, making everyone feel unreal.
Once they fully control this breathing ability, they should be able to pass through the cursed seal and no longer be restricted by this small seal.
At this time, ordinary mermaids also looked at the murlocs who had taken the mud shell with burning eyes. Although most of the mermaids present were not eligible to take the magic medicine for the time being, it did not mean that they would not be able to take it in the future.
"Your Majesty, the latest news is that three ghosts have invaded in advance and have entered the border and are heading towards Freir!"
At this moment, a mermaid warrior wearing armor came forward and looked at the king anxiously.
The lively medicine giving scene suddenly became quiet.
The excitement brought by the magic medicine still cannot make people ignore the threat of the ghost shark.
"How strong are the invading nether sharks?" The king's face also darkened. The residents of the border towns have not yet evacuated. If the three nether sharks are too strong, they may march in and cause immeasurable damage.
"One large ghost shark and two medium-sized ghost sharks. After Rock City received the distress signal, they have sent troops to rush to rescue." The mermaid responded quickly.
The king pondered for a while and said in a deep voice: "Send the order and ask the border troops to rush to the rescue of Freir. At the same time, he ordered the residents from all over the country to leave for Ivo City immediately. The invasion of the Nether Shark may be advanced."
"Yes!" The mermaid responded and left quickly.
The king walked up to the high priest and lowered his voice a bit: "High priest, look now..."
The high priest directly sent a message to the king and said: "It is better to have all the tribesmen evacuate into Ivo City according to the original plan. Although we have found the person chosen by God, it is probably difficult for him to evacuate this large-scale attack by himself. All the ghost sharks have been dealt with, and we must be more fully prepared.”
The king nodded thoughtfully.
"The Nether Shark's behavior is strange this time. I will go to the border personally." The high priest said again, but this time he did not use sound transmission, but said it loudly.
"But the person chosen by God is still waiting for us, the high priest..." The king hesitated to speak. Now, compared to a border town, the meeting with the person chosen by God is obviously the most important.
"The effect of the magic medicine has not yet fully taken effect. I estimate that it will take two hours at the earliest before I can try to pass through the Cursed Wall." The high priest shook his head, waved his hand, and two pale golden gems fell on the altar next to the altar. On a formation, golden light flashed very quickly.
"I'll come back as soon as I go." The high priest stepped onto the teleportation array.
"High Priest, I'll let you go." Jina also landed on the teleportation array and stood aside respectfully.
