Chapter 136 Ambush
The twelve priests of the Poseidon Cult are all named "Blue".
No matter what their original names were, once they dedicated their fate to the sea and became servants of the majestic and vast sea god, their names must be changed to some shade of blue.
The twelve of them are all important figures and rulers of the Poseidon Cult. They have long been in charge of the life and death of hundreds of thousands of island residents, and even have the enormous power to command some sea tribes.
On the pursuing ship, there was a big figure from the Poseidon Cult, Priest Valan, who possessed the powerful high-level blood power "Invisible Siren".
Qualitative change!
Walan looks to be in his forties, with blue lines painted on his face. He wears a blue and white priest robe and holds a long white cane. He stands on the deck and looks at the island not far away.
"Unfortunately, I am unable to help the God of the Vast Sea any more now. I can only kill some small fish as sacrifices to Him."
He looked very unhappy, and said to himself:
"That damn bastard Deep Blue actually said that I only have strength but no wisdom and looked down on me... When I regain my strength, I will definitely be able to prove myself."
Valan had always fought bravely in the naval wars, making the Siat people extremely hate and fear him. However, in the last great defeat of the Poseidon Cult, he used a powerful forbidden relic in order to save more people, causing his own power to decline greatly.
He is much weaker now, and only has the strength to reach the threshold of qualitative change.
It can be said that if Walan encounters any strong man of the same level in a one-on-one fight, there is almost no chance of winning.
Therefore, when assigning the task of pursuing the defeated soldiers, the sage Shenlan among the priests only arranged this route for him. The targets to be tracked were all small figures with mediocre strength, so the sage Shenlan did not even assign him other second-level strong men as helpers.
Those sea creatures, which were about the size of fingers and looked like swimming fish, kept reporting the whereabouts of the fugitives, and Walan caught up with them easily.
He looked at the distant coast and was surprised to find that there were two Syat sailing ships on the island, not just the one he was tracking.
"Two ships? Turns out there's an unexpected surprise."
"You all saw it, those dirty, muddy Syat people were repairing their bloody ships on the coast. Let's plunder those ships!"
Walan's tone became increasingly angry, and finally he roared!
"Then, use your life and soul to compensate for the pain you have caused to the people of the Sea God! Shameless and despicable Syat people!"
The Poseidon sect members on the ship also roared one after another! The blue facial lines on their faces also became ferocious with anger!
On the island.
The unconscious Byrne came into a dream, as if he was back in the snowy jungle, and could even feel the coldness around him.
"Byrne..."
"Byrne."
He heard a voice suddenly coming from his ear, it was the voice of his father Lucius.
"Byrne, you did a great job!"
Byrne turned his head suddenly and looked behind him in confusion and surprise. Lucius was standing there, looking at him with a smile.
"Byrne, from today on, you no longer need me. Go on your own journey."
He was about to reach out and grab Lucius, but then he stopped and put his hand down.
Byrne nodded slightly.
Lucius's figure gradually disappeared, and Byrne continued to walk forward calmly in the snow. After a long time, he finally came to the outskirts of the snow and jungle, greeting the bright sunshine from the sky.
"Byrne!"
The dream was suddenly shattered, and he opened his eyes abruptly. He soon saw Irene, Chris, Eric, and Archibald, all standing around him, looking at him lying on the ground with concern.
Irene smiled and said, "You woke up! I saw you talking in your dream just now! I knew you were about to wake up!"
She rarely smiled lately, but she was filled with joy when she saw Byrne wake up from his coma.
"Um……"
Byrne gradually woke up from his confusion, nodded, and sat up with Eric's help.
"What's going on? What's the situation now? Where are we?"
He found that all the members of the Fisher family were gathered on the top of an island, from where they could overlook the beach at the foot of the mountain.
This is just a small hill on the island, and the height difference between the top of the hill and the beach is only about two hundred meters.
There were two boats parked on the beach, one of which was the boat they and the Lion Family had rented. As for the other boat, he noticed that there were not only people from the Fisher family on the top of the mountain, but also another family.
Byrne had many doubts in his mind, but at least he was relieved that the Fisher family had not been destroyed last night.
Irene took a deep breath and said calmly:
"Byrne, there's no need to get excited. Let me explain to you what happened."
Afterwards, she explained what happened after Byrne fell into a coma. Finally, when Byrne heard that a powerful enemy who was suspected to have undergone a qualitative change was about to arrive, he stood up in surprise.
"That's unlikely. There are only a few strong men in the Sea God Cult who have reached a higher level. It's unlikely that we will encounter them!"
Having said that, he knew in his heart that there were always exceptions to many things.
Eric, who was supporting Byrne, suddenly spoke with confidence:
"We are ready for an ambush, Mr. Byrne. According to the military theory you told us before, we should attack from a high position. Now that we are on a high position, it will be easier for us to win."
"And you are right. It is very likely that the enemy coming here is not a qualitatively improved enemy. The probability of that happening is actually very small."
The Vaughn family was lying in ambush on the other side of the mountain, so that people from both sides could support each other during the battle.
This battle is winnable, and it is a battle that must be won.
Byrne nodded, but he was still unsure, because no one could predict how powerful a person who had undergone a qualitative change would be.
He could only hope that the other party was not a priest of the sea god who had undergone a qualitative transformation.
Both ships suffered heavy damage, and the Fisher family had nowhere to escape, so they could only fight and kill the enemy here!
Irene, dressed in a black robe, stood out calmly and looked at the more than one hundred people who were ambushed on the mountain. Those people were all from the Fisher family.
She looked around at the extraordinary people and ordinary family soldiers and said loudly:
"I think everyone knows that for several years, our Fisher family has been ridiculed, slandered, and spurned by people all over the East Coast!"
"They say we are cowards, wimps, and disgusting cowards, but you all know that you are not! You are actually heroes who can kill enemies on the battlefield, and you are also brave and powerful Siat people!"
"Now that a powerful enemy is about to arrive, and the Vaughn family is right over there, let us let them witness it here! Let them see our courage and strength!"
Byrne and Chris were both silent, and they both knew one thing deep down in their hearts.
She is ready.
If the enemy is truly a powerful enemy who has undergone a qualitative transformation, the most sensible choice is for Irene to use a holy object with powerful powers and sacrifice the rest of her life in exchange for the life of the powerful enemy.
Chris finally couldn't help but pray, Great Lord of the Lost, please don't take my sister Irene away.
Byrne also murmured to himself, saying: "She has always been loyal to you and extremely devout. She deserves a better ending!"
Everyone became nervous and sweated.
Finally, the members of the Poseidon Cult landed.
On the top of the mountain, the Fisher family held their breath and used the plants on the mountain to cover themselves. Everyone was filled with tension; the madness and fear of last night had not yet subsided in their hearts.
Chris has used his ability as a "trap master" and the numerous alchemical explosives and kerosene on board to set up sophisticated and hidden serial traps on the road leading from the beach to the mountain.
As long as those people come over here to search, the large number of traps on the hillside will be triggered immediately, and the enemy will suffer heavy casualties in an instant!
After they saw the members of the Poseidon Order land, they were full of caution and did not touch the two ships immediately, but slowly searched the beach.
It took them more than half an hour to grope their way up the mountain, and just as the believers of the Poseidon Sect climbed up the hillside.
Suddenly, the trap was triggered!
“Boom boom boom!”
The continuous chain of explosions resounded throughout the entire island in a blink of an eye, followed by tragic wails and desperate screams. The followers of the Poseidon Cult suffered heavy casualties!
“Success!”
"good!"
When the people from the Fisher family and the Vaughn family saw this scene, they couldn't help but cheer!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If the opponent had been cautious enough and not triggered the chain traps, the subsequent battle would have been much more difficult.
At the same time, Baron Vaughn, the head of the Vaughn family, displayed his powerful bloodline power "Dawn Roaring Tiger", releasing a huge ball of light full of heat energy to bombard from a long distance, immediately causing a new explosion of considerable scale!
"boom!"
On the hillside burning with blazing flames, the followers of the Poseidon Sect, who had already suffered heavy casualties, suffered another heavy blow and were almost wiped out.
Byrne was also extremely happy. The ambush was very successful and they were about to win. As long as the opponent did not have a strong man who had undergone a qualitative change, victory would be in their pocket!
[Disaster has come]
There was no sadness or joy. The sudden voice from deep within their hearts completely stunned everyone in the Fisher family.
That was the voice of the great Lord of the Lost, which undoubtedly meant that the battle was not over yet, but had just begun.
Moreover, an existence that can be called a disaster to the Fisher family is, isn't it, at least, an extraordinary and powerful person who has undergone a qualitative transformation!
"What's wrong with you? Don't be afraid!"
Elder Allen, who had not heard the prompt, stood up. Seeing the strange looks on the faces of Fisher and his companions, he drew his sword and was ready to charge forward bravely as an example.
"Stop being a coward! Give the order and completely wipe out those bastards of the Poseidon Cult!"
A stream of pure water suddenly shot out from the hillside at an extremely high speed, instantly crossing a distance of one hundred meters and shooting towards the top of the mountain, smoothly cutting off Allen's waist with lightning speed!
"How is this possible? This is simply impossible!"
Allen couldn't believe it at all. His eyes were wide open and bright red blood kept oozing out of his mouth. Byrne, Irene and others also looked at this scene in astonishment.
Byrne looked at Allen's death in a daze. Suddenly, he felt a huge horror in his heart and couldn't help shaking all over.
He carried with him the ideal of saving the Silver Race and many unfulfilled ambitions, but he died so easily and peacefully, without even a sign.
