Next came a line of silver-gray fishmen, wielding tridents, menacingly approaching the cave.
"This is it, this is the place."
The merman leader's eyes were filled with pain and anger. "The deputy leader's aura still lingers. He must be nearby."
"Chief, look, there's a cave ahead."
At this moment, a mermaid with sharp eyes pointed ahead and said, "That's strange. We've definitely passed by here before, so how come we didn't notice this cave before?"
"Yes, it's very strange."
The other mermaids also found it unbelievable and asked in confusion, "However, the deputy leader's aura is indeed there. We sensed it too, inside that cave."
"It seems those humans must be inside."
Upon hearing this, the mermaid leader said fiercely, "If we dare to kill the deputy leader, this time, no matter what kind of being he is, if we cannot kill him, we will have no face to return to the Endless Sea of Sin!"
"Yes, the deputy leader must be compensated."
After saying that, all the mermaids stopped hesitating and quickly moved towards the cave together.
"Watch out, there really is someone here!"
Soon, they saw a figure sitting inside the cave. It was a familiar figure—Jun Ran, who had previously routed them.
"It's him!"
The merfolk still harbored great fear of Junran, as everything that had happened before was still fresh in their minds.
"He is stating here that he killed the deputy leader."
Although the merfolk were somewhat frightened, their reason was quickly overtaken by anger: "Kill him and avenge our deputy leader."
"Killing him won't be easy; we must be fully prepared."
At this moment, the mermaid leader raised his hand to stop everyone and said seriously, "The strongest expert in the team will follow me to attack head-on, while the rest of you chant together to disrupt his mind with sound waves. This way, we will have a better chance of winning."
In order to deal with this human, they lost a deputy leader. This time, they must kill him no matter what and take his energy for themselves. Only in this way can they make up for the loss.
"yes."
Upon hearing this, all the mermaids agreed and began to set up according to the plan.
"ah…"
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, mermaid songs began to echo from the entrance of the cave, which was surrounded by people.
Like their ugly appearance, their singing voices were extremely harsh and unpleasant, yet they possessed a unique magic that caused the surrounding space to ripple.
Meanwhile, Junran, who was inside the cave, was already in a state of wavering. As soon as the song started, he immediately lost all ability to resist. His eyes were vacant and blank, and he looked like a puppet.
"careful."
The mermaids outside were unaware of Junran's current situation and remained extremely cautious, slowly approaching.
Based on their previous estimates, Junran was extremely powerful, so his willpower should also be very strong, and he certainly wouldn't be so easily influenced.
"He didn't respond."
The mermaid leader approached silently with a few of his men. Normally, when someone is being controlled, it's understandable that they would feel uncomfortable and resist.
Especially experts like Junran will react more readily.
However, Junran inside remained completely still throughout, an unusual phenomenon that made the mermaids hesitate.
"That's really strange."
The merman leader was also somewhat puzzled. "Could there be some kind of trap waiting for us?"
