With the last Earth Realm being hunted down by Zi Sui, there was no longer any rival for him on this battlefield.
The rest is just blood and nutrients.
The armies below were still fighting fiercely, and the battle was difficult to resolve.
Before they could react, the unbridled murderous aura no longer subsided but erupted completely.
The vast sea surface suddenly became silent as if its lifeline was strangled.
All the people who were shouting and fighting were frozen in place in an instant as if they were under a spell.
The pressure from the top predator froze the movements of all creatures present.
The fear that came from the soul made their hands and feet instinctively cold, frozen in place, and they even briefly forgot how to breathe.
The moment the murderous aura that frightened them appeared, the thick fog outside began to spread inward at an accelerated speed.
In the blink of an eye, the mist opened its bloody mouth like a ferocious beast and suddenly shrank.
The entire battlefield was ruthlessly engulfed, and all contact with the outside world was instantly cut off.
The next moment, Zi Suifei's figure in the sky suddenly disappeared.
Disappearing along with him were the two armies that were originally "fighting fiercely" below.
This also includes the small force previously sent by the Third Prince's Party.
…
"What? You mean, an entire army of our sea tribe just disappeared like that?"
"Where are our people?"
"Our people are gone too?!"
When Jiang Ning heard the news, the first thing he did was to doubt the authenticity of the matter.
I suspect this was just an excuse some idiots came up with on the spur of the moment after the defeat on the front lines.
Then, when he heard the liaison officer's trembling but firm affirmative response, he belatedly realized the fear rising in his heart.
Although that is not all the troops sent by the sea tribe this time.
But since they were ordered to intercept the first fleet of the two ethnic groups' coalition forces, they would naturally not be weak.
In addition, the small force they left there for liaison and the coalition army also disappeared.
This adds up to at least 100,000 people. How could they just disappear like that?
Why would such a powerful fighting force that could seriously affect the outcome of the battle suddenly appear?
Jiang Ning's face darkened, and he quickly walked into the core area of this secret base.
He stopped in front of one of the exquisite villas, bowed towards the gate of the villa, and lowered his head to greet.
"Your Highness, I, Jiang Ning, request an audience with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a deliberately leaked aura of terror sweeping across his body.
After a while, most of the aura dissipated, and the door of the villa suddenly opened by itself.
As Jiang Ning stepped inside, he saw the villa's elegantly decorated porch.
A vague gaze had been fixed on him since a while ago.
He didn't care about it, but walked quickly to the villa study with familiarity, and then raised his hand to knock on the door.
“Knock knock knock…”
The door opened from the inside and a waiter welcomed Jiang Ning into the study.
Afterwards, the waiter politely brought the teacup, then turned around, bowed, and left the study.
Jiang Ning looked at the Third Prince, to whom he was loyal, and spoke quickly after he saw him signaling for him to speak directly.
"Your Highness, a unit of our army has disappeared along with the Allied Forces' First Fleet off the coast of Huanshuizhou."
"The liaison team we sent out also lost contact."
"Considering the unplanned incident that occurred earlier, I'm afraid there are other forces secretly taking advantage of the situation."
Jiang Ning was referring to the death of Bixu, a researcher sent by the First Research Institute in Mao City.
After listening to this, Yuan Li still had a gentle smile on his face. He picked up the fragrant tea, took a sip, and then said.
"Jiangning, don't be nervous. Things haven't deviated from their course yet."
"But, Your Highness," Jiang Ning rubbed the tea bowl uneasily.
"The disappearance of our first dispatched army is likely to affect the dispatch of subsequent troops. Then, Mao City will soon..."
"It's okay," Yuan Li said, his eyes tinged with scarlet blood. "I'm just returning it to the human race for the time being."
"What's more, the other side has lost a larger fleet, and Huanshuizhou is already in our pocket."
Without the Allied First Fleet, it will take time to rebuild it.
Not to mention the Huanshui Continent, which was originally controlled by the human family, is far away from the human base camp.
A large number of human combat forces were killed or injured in the previous civil unrest in Mao City.
The rest of the people relied on the soldiers under the command of the third prince and other subsequent troops of the sea clan.
This delay was enough to empty Huanshuizhou and establish a passable line of defense.
Seeing that Jiang Ning was still a little anxious, Yuan Li stopped persuading him and just changed the subject.
"Instead of worrying about this, why don't you hurry up and contact the people from the Second Research Institute?"
"We've already captured enough primitive bodies in Huanshuizhou."
While there is still time, throw out this "stepping stone" quickly, we don't have any extra military rations to feed our people.
Jiang Ning knew Yuan Li's general plan, so he immediately understood his implication.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will do it right away."
He seemed to be distracted by the next matter he was going to deal with. He agreed immediately and stood up to say goodbye.
"Don't worry," Yuan Li stopped him and placed a black jade token on the table, "Take this with you."
The token was only the size of a palm and was shiny black. It must have been carved from rare natural black jade.
On the black jade token, there are complex dragon patterns swirling around, and the word "贰" is engraved in it.
"This is?"
Jiang Ning was a little confused.
Although he knew that a piece of natural black jade of this size was priceless and very valuable.
But what does this have to do with contacting the Second Research Institute of the Sea Clan?
"This is the token bestowed by His Majesty. Show it to the people in the Second Research Institute, and they will naturally understand."
"yes."
Seeing that His Highness did not explain, Jiang Ning naturally did not ask any more questions.
Sooner or later he will know what he should know, and he will naturally not care about what he should not know.
He is sensible, prudent and efficient; these are his advantages as a tool.
This is also the reason why he can meet the third prince at any time.
In front of the Third Prince, he took the token and summoned a gorgeous wooden box.
After properly placing the token, lock it and put it into the storage ring.
Then he respectfully left the study.
After leaving the Third Prince's temporary residence, Jiang Ning immediately went to serve His Highness.
He knew very well that since the token was bestowed by His Majesty, the matter of contacting the Second Research Institute would be a sure thing.
After all, the fact that the three major research institutes of the sea clan are the private properties of successive Dragon Kings is a well-known secret among the top leaders of the sea clan.
