Chapter 90 The Strange Death of the Old Witch

There is an uninhabited desert island near the route between the Kingdom of West Asia and the German Empire.

The king leaned against a tree, looking at the soaked soldiers around him, feeling that everything that had just happened was like a dream.

The monarch of the West Asian kingdom couldn't even believe that he was still alive.

The howling wind, the cold rain, the deafening thunder, all the horrific scenes seemed to be not far away, and they appeared again and again in my memory.

"I didn't expect that a group of mermaids would save us. It seems that mermaids are not the evil creatures that bring disasters as the legend says."

Neptune and other mermaids rescued the king and everyone else on the ship, and everyone survived, with no one dying in the terrible storm.

They sent the king and others to the shore and started chatting with them.

The mermaids told stories about the sea and curiously asked humans about things on earth.

That sounds interesting.

A surprising scene appeared on the shore of this deserted island.

Hundreds of humans gathered on the beach, and in the sea ahead were hundreds of mermaids, sharing the scenery on the shore and in the sea with each other.

There has never been such a scene in the history of the Sea Kingdom.

Many humans are only realizing today that they have too many misunderstandings about the mermaids of the deep sea.

Beneath the deep blue sea, there is a magnificent, fantastic and beautiful country that they do not know about.

Those mermaids are creatures similar to them. They have similar emotions. They can love, hate, feel sad, suffer, and have moments of joy.

Aside from legs and tails, and the difference between land and sea, what are the differences between mermaids and humans?

The Sea King told the human king about his next plan: "We can drive huge sea beasts. They are like horses on land in the sea. They are called horses, right? However, they are much bigger than horses!

"After a while, my servants will call those big fish and sea snakes from the sea kingdom. You can ride on the backs of those sea beasts and let them drag you back to your country!"

The king was very surprised when he heard this:

"The people of the sea are truly amazing. This is much more convenient than human ships!"

During this time just now, the king felt that chatting with the monarch of the sea was a very pleasant thing. The monarch of the sea was not like those kings on land who liked to put on airs and always had many hypocritical ideas.

"By the way, it will take some time to mobilize that group of sea beasts." The Sea King said again.

"It's a rare opportunity to meet a large group of humans. King of the land, how about coming to my palace as a guest?"

The palace of the Sea King? The palace in the deep sea beneath the waves? The king almost thought he had heard it wrong, when he heard the Sea King say:

"We have a way to allow humans on earth to go to the sea, but of course only a dozen people are allowed. Your Majesty can choose the most loyal servants to come to my palace as guests."

I saw a big fish floating on the sea at some point, and its belly was as transparent as pure glass.

——This was the idea that the Sea King came up with after Rhine and Aurora visited the deep sea palace.

He searched for all kinds of strange fish in the deep sea that had never been seen by humans on earth, and finally found a fish that was suitable as a means of transportation that could allow humans to travel to the kingdom of the sea.

"Thank you for your invitation, respected Lord of the Sea!" The king looked delighted.

He had been to many places on land, visited snow-capped glaciers and lush forests, climbed to the top of the mountain, watched the clouds flow by his feet, but he had never seen the kingdom in the sea!

The king then selected a dozen loyal servants and guards and entered the belly of the big fish that served as a means of transportation.

The big fish slowly dived into the sea.

…

"ah!"

Screams of pain echoed somewhere on the streets of Ender Imperial City.

The old witch's last desperate counterattack was also suppressed. She was bitten in half by the huge dog and died completely.

Rhine watched the bodies that had been broken into two pieces fall to the ground one by one.

The next moment, the little magician felt that some magical power in the city was mobilized, and strange magical fluctuations appeared nearby.

The backup plan that an old witch had arranged in this city in advance was triggered.

On the upper half of the corpse, an illusory and transparent figure emerged, which was the image of the old witch.

"Even though I'm dead, I won't let you go! Just wait, I'll become an evil spirit, a wronged soul, but I'll still kill all of you. Including the Emperor of Ende who abandoned me, I won't let him go!"

The old witch screamed.

She is now a wandering ghost, most of her memories and human emotions have dissipated, leaving only her obsessions and inextinguishable resentment from her lifetime.

"It's a bit annoying. After all, in this world, human souls are immortal." Rhine put his hands in his pockets and looked at the old witch who had turned into a vengeful spirit.

The other party had obviously triggered the corresponding arrangements at the moment of death, so that after death, the immortal soul did not lose all memories and go to other worlds or reincarnate.

Her spirit will continue to linger in the world.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I've seen similar necromancy in books," Rhine said calmly, "Do you think you still exist like this?"

"You are already dead. Your current wandering image is just the embodiment of resentment, an obsession that still wanders in the world. You will never be able to generate new goals, and you will never be able to have emotions other than resentment."

The old witch, who had become a vengeful spirit and lost most of her human thinking, was unable to think about the questions raised by Rhine. She was already filled with pure hatred and opened her mouth to curse Rhine in front of her.

Suddenly, a dark vortex appeared on the old witch's body. The vortex did not bring any substantial wind pressure, but it seemed to have a strange attraction to the soul.

The old witch's vengeful spirit screamed and was sucked into the whirlpool, disappearing without a trace.

Rhine slowly approached the old witch's body.

"After death, the soul was sent to an unknown place by the spell arranged in advance..."

Rhine calmly watched the old witch disappear, not feeling sorry that she would still exist in the world in some form after her death. He had not yet mastered the magic of imprisoning souls, so he really could not do anything about it.

Anyway, after becoming a vengeful spirit, the old witch lost most of her magic in her previous life, and she could no longer have clear thinking. It was impossible for her to weave any conspiracy anymore, and she could not have much influence on reality. She could only follow her last bit of obsession and wander the world by instinct.

Rhine commanded the smallest of the three dogs and searched for a mirror from the old witch's body.

For a magician, a mirror is usually a tool for them to communicate with distant places, and it often hides huge secrets.

"It's like checking the communication records..."

Rhine recalled some things from his past life and couldn't help but laugh. He gently stroked the surface of the mirror, summoning the magic of prophecy and divination, and chanted in a low voice:

"The content of the last image I used this mirror to communicate with."

In the mirror, there appeared a tall woman in a black and purple robe.

Although the forced reproduction of the image was extremely blurry, Rhine still recognized her cold face at a glance.

The black witch Maleficent! Rhine took out the crystal ball and injected more prophetic magic into the mirror.

Maleficent in the picture began to move, and past conversations appeared one after another in the mirror.

"What's wrong? Didn't you come to me yesterday? I said that when you achieve your goal, I will allow you to join us..."

"I was just discussing with my sisters what method would be the most exciting and interesting way to kill the sea witch who is about to be kicked out of the Witch Association..."

"Respected Lord Maleficent, I want to remind you something about the magicians and warriors of the Kingdom of Rose. I think they must be thinking of finding you and killing you to lift the curse of the kingdom..."
