Chapter 863 Mermaid Mutation
"Sir Thor." A wizard ran over and said to Thor respectfully, "The black tide has retreated ten nautical miles. The wizard in charge of monitoring has issued a notice that the black tide has ended. Do you want to stay here or return to the Palace of Eternal Night?"
Thor was now confused. He looked at Emperor Aiello who was flying from the sea to the coast and was somewhat skeptical of the warning in the diary.
Everything went smoothly, and the wizards of Neflete once again withstood the attack of the black tide. Now that the crisis has been resolved, the wizards on the sea are returning to the coast one after another, preparing to pack up and go back.
"Could it be that I have completely misunderstood, and this Black Tide attack is not the masquerade ball mentioned in the diary? Or is it because I asked Floco to come here that the predicted future has changed?"
Just as Thor was thinking about whether he should call Xander 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.
The wizard who was pushed away by Thor had no time to be surprised before he was frightened by the situation of the sea behind him.
"I, I'll go report..."
He left anxiously without even having time to say who he was reporting to.
The Black Flame Emperor Ailo, who was about to reach the shore, immediately stopped and looked down at his feet.
The sea surface had become calm due to the receding black tide, and the control array of the Judgment Tribunal had not been removed, so the sea surface was only slightly fluctuating due to the water current.
But now, tiny bubbles appeared under the water, rising to the surface and exploding with a "pop".
The bubbles became more and more numerous and bigger, just like a pot of boiling water with firewood constantly being added under the stove.
Thor also came to the sea surface, more than a hundred meters away from the Black Flame Emperor, and he was also looking at the sea surface.
"The sea temperature hasn't risen. Could it be an earthquake?"
He used his mental power to scan the situation deep in the sea.
The Black Flame Emperor not far away had already rushed into the sea.
Not only him, there were also several second-level wizards who rushed in.
This sea area is very close to the Red Sea trees, so nothing can go wrong.
Soon, more people gathered on the sea.
However, the first group of people who entered the seabed have not returned yet, including the Emperor of Black Flame. Therefore, although the remaining people are anxious, no one dares to move.
The bubbles on the sea surface became increasingly dense, but Thor's mental scan did not reveal anything abnormal.
There is no mutated mental power, no chaotic magic power.
Even apart from the unusually vigorous breath of life, Thor found almost no noteworthy phenomena.
"Go down and take a look?" Thor narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, dark shadows suddenly rose from the bottom of the sea.
Those dark shadows broke through the confinement of the sea at an extremely fast speed and flew into the sky.
Only then did Thor see clearly that these dark shadows were actually the wizards who had just entered the seabed.
But at this moment, their faces were full of disbelief.
"What happened?" other wizards asked loudly.
"Mermaids, mermaids are alienated! They are all alienated!"
There was a tremor in the voice of the person who answered.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, huge waves exploded on the sea surface, as if a heavyweight cannonball fell into the sea.
The waves rushed towards the sky, and soon the figure of Wizard Ailo appeared from the waves.
What the other wizards didn't expect was that this fourth-level Black Flame Emperor actually looked a little embarrassed.
Thor's eyes narrowed.
Although it was only a moment, he still discovered the flaw in Emperor Ailo.
The other party's mental power was briefly interrupted.
It was as if a crack had appeared in the mask covering his face.
A little bit of the true face beneath the mask was revealed.
The Black Flame Emperor in front of him was indeed Stuart in disguise! 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 just to deal with him.
The defensive magic circle behind him was still shining, and Thor discovered that an even larger black shadow was 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 on the seabed is unclear, let's retreat to the back first." Thor whispered to Stuart.
Stuart looked at Thor in surprise, and the expression on his face was almost unable to hold back.
But he quickly revealed an expression of pride mixed with a bit of disdain, "Since the situation is not right, it is natural for me to stand 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 danger arises, and the fourth-level wizard is the first to run away, then the other wizards participating in the defensive war will probably be thrown into chaos.
The more accidents there are, the more someone needs to keep things under control.
Stuart was already wearing the "mask" of the Black Flame Emperor at this time, so he couldn't do anything that would lower morale while wearing the mask.
Thor 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 we just going to watch Stuart die?
At this moment, the bubbles finally stopped bubbling up from the sea surface and the boiling disappeared, but an extremely powerful oppressive force spread from the bottom of the sea.
The culprit who had just sent several wizards to explore the sea and was frightened out of the deep sea finally appeared! When Thor saw the guy emerging from the sea, his eyes widened.
"What's this?"
What emerged from beneath the sea was not the modified merman Thor had seen many times before.
Rather, it was a dark giant whose shape could not be identified from its outline.
The surface of the giant seemed to be covered with a layer of mud, which was constantly being peeled off by the sea water as it emerged from the sea.
"A giant mud monster?"
The monster looked like a pile of mud, with no visible limbs, torso or head, but Thor could feel an extremely strong vitality from it.
Just like what he felt when he used his mental power to explore the seabed.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have thought that such mental power was emitted by the mud monster in front of me.
The mud monster was moving, but no bones or muscles were visible to support its movement. And even though the mud on its body was always dripping to the sea surface, its body size kept expanding.
"That's not mud, it's the rotten flesh of a mermaid." Stuart, who was still performing on the side, whispered to Thor.
"Mermaid's rotten flesh? It's so large. Could it be that all the mermaids in the sea are dead?"
Stuart seemed to be afraid that Thor would notice something wrong with his identity, so he stopped talking.
But Stuart didn't say much, so naturally someone spoke up to tell everyone what happened.
Although the wizard Roye who was in charge of this area was not there at the moment, the Tribunal had already gained a lot of experience from years of fighting against the Black Tide.
Almost immediately, someone temporarily replaced Roye and became the new commander.
That was one of the wizards who had once traveled deep into the sea.
The surprise on his face had been replaced by anger. With the help of witchcraft, he shouted, "This monster is made of a large number of mutated and dead mermaid corpses. Their vengeful spirits are curled up inside the meat paste and blocked by the black tide pollution. We can't let it continue to develop, otherwise the remaining black tide pollution in the sea will become nutrients to help it grow stronger! Now, kill the mermaid mutant with all your strength!"
