Watching the Naga getting closer and closer,
Hai Yuan, the Mermaid Clan Leader with an aged face, suddenly tightened his grip on the coral hammer in his hand and said sharply,
"No, if this continues, none of our Tide Tribe will escape."
"All Five-tier Elders, stay and block the Naga with me. The rest of the tribesmen scatter and escape. Save whoever you can!"
After Hai Yuan said this, his eyes were full of determination,
He had already prepared to die.
He hadn't expected that the Naga, who had always been evenly matched with the Mermaid,
Would suddenly produce a Seven-tier expert, instantly overturning the delicate balance between the two races.
"Yes! Clan Leader!"
Four Mermaid Elders of Five-tier strength answered in unison, their eyes also full of determination.
They knew deeply what choosing to stay meant—facing the Naga, those cruel creatures who fed on the hearts of the Mermaid to gain stronger power, the hope of survival was slim.
Although fear lingered in their hearts, there was no trace of wavering in the eyes of these Elders.
The tribe consisted of their blood relatives and descendants.
To buy them even one more second of survival time, they were willing to offer their lives without hesitation.
"No, Grandpa Clan Chief, Uncle Hai Qiong, don't give up, you must believe me!"
Seeing Grandpa Clan Chief and the Elder Uncles preparing to stay and die,
Fu Yao was almost crying with anxiety, her voice full of urgency and pleading.
"That Human Big Brother, he can definitely help us block those Naga."
"He, he's on Giant Lizard Island ahead. Let's just hold on a little longer, we'll be there soon, soon!"
"C-Clan Leader, Fu...Fu Yao is right,"
Although Hao Qi in Fu Yao's arms was weak,
He still tried his best to squeeze out words, "That Human, he is really powerful..."
"Mhm mhm mhm, Grandpa Clan Chief, my brother and I would never lie to everyone. I don't want to lose any more relatives..."
Fu Yao's voice was choked with sobs, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Several of her friends had already been caught by the Naga behind them and had their hearts eaten.
Hai Yuan gazed at Fu Yao, complex emotions flashing in his deep eyes.
He knew deeply that if they chose to scatter and escape at this moment, they might still preserve the lives of some tribesmen.
But if they went to Giant Lizard Island as Fu Yao said,
And that Human was not an opponent of the Naga, then the entire tribe would fall into an abyss of eternal damnation.
However,
Looking at Fu Yao's expectant and resolute eyes, a strange trust surged in Hai Yuan's heart.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice,
"Alright, I believe you siblings. Everyone, head towards Giant Lizard Island with all your might!"
Soon,
The outline of Giant Lizard Island gradually became clear in the sight of the Mermaid group,
And a mysterious black boat, completely enveloped in thick black mist,
Quietly came into Fu Yao's view,
It was the Netherworld!
Just then, a familiar voice with an upward inflection, slightly playful, sounded,
"Yo, little Mermaid, we meet again."
Hearing Jack's voice,
A bright smile instantly bloomed on Fu Yao's face,
"Zombie Big Brother! It's Zombie Big Brother!"
Then, she turned and said to Hai Yuan and the other Mermaid beside her,
"Grandpa Clan Chief, everyone, we are saved!"
"This is the ship of that super super powerful Human Big Brother I told you about before!"
However, unlike Fu Yao's excitement,
Hai Yuan, Hai Qiong, and the other Mermaid looked at the black boat, their brows tightly furrowed.
Above that black boat,
Hai Yuan did not sense the aura of a Seven-tier expert,
Let alone a Seven-tier expert,
Not even the aura of a Six-tier expert.
"Fu Yao, you...that Human you mentioned, what realm is he in now?"
Hai Yuan's voice was unusually heavy.
"Uh, Big Brother is currently...probably Five-tier?"
Fu Yao tilted her head, recalling as she spoke.
Hmm, Human Big Brother was originally Tier 2,
After fighting with Gorgon, he rose to Five-tier. Big Brother is too amazing!
However, upon hearing Fu Yao's words,
A sigh immediately arose from the crowd,
"Fu Yao, ah Fu Yao, child, you've really harmed everyone!"
Mermaid Elder Hai Qiong slammed the water fiercely, his voice full of despair.
He originally wanted to scold Fu Yao,
But looking at her innocent face, the words of blame were swallowed back.
He understood that Fu Yao had good intentions.
Hai Yuan and the other Elders also sighed and shook their heads, their expressions full of disappointment and despair.
"E-everyone... why the long faces? Human Big Brother is very powerful, even Gorgon was not his opponent. He can definitely help us deal with those Naga!"
Fu Yao clenched her small pink fists, clearly full of confidence in Lu Chen.
"Fu Yao, it's true that he is powerful for being able to defeat the peak Five-tier Gorgon,"
"But this time, a Seven-tier expert suddenly appeared among the Naga from who knows where. No matter how strong this Human is, he is only at the Five-tier realm. How could he possibly be an opponent of a Seven-tier Naga?"
Hai Yuan shook his head helplessly, sighing as he explained.
"No, Big Brother defeated the demonized..."
Fu Yao eagerly wanted to explain, but her words were cut off by a burst of extremely arrogant laughter as soon as they left her mouth.
"Hahahaha, you timid Mermaid, run, why aren't you running? Have you found a helper?"
Along with this wild laughter, dozens of Naga warriors with snake heads, fish bodies, and thick arms had tightly surrounded the Mermaid.
The Naga leading them,
Had a striking scar across his face, a ferocious expression, and was laughing wildly, mocking the Mermaid.
Sabas, as the Clan Leader of this group of Naga, was currently filled with irrepressible smugness and ecstasy.
He never expected that
A Lord from the Naga Royal Family would condescend to visit their small place.
With the strong assistance of this Lord,
The Mermaid, who had always given them headaches, would soon become delicious food in their mouths.
It was just that those agile Mermaid escaped too quickly,
Originally, it would have taken some effort to catch them all in one go,
But these Mermaid, for some reason, lost their minds,
And actually chose to flee towards the dead end at Giant Lizard Island,
This time, it truly came without any effort,
Hahahaha.
"Clan Leader, I just heard the Mermaid imply that there should be reinforcements for the Mermaid on that black boat."
A Naga warrior quietly approached Sabas and reported in a low voice.
"Human warship?"
Sabas gazed at the black boat ahead, shrouded in black mist and faintly visible,
His brows furrowed unconsciously.
The Human race, this race has always been not to be underestimated,
They have infinite potential and are vast in number.
When did the Mermaid get involved with Humans?
Just as his thoughts were racing,
The black mist on the black boat suddenly surged, as if gently pushed aside by an invisible hand,
Revealing a tall figure standing on the deck.
