Chapter 111: Attack on Coastal City
On the Outskirts of Coastal City
Boom!
A large fire dragon roared towards the upcoming fishman and tried to engulf them with a single bite.
But a massive water dragon emerged and blocked it on its path, creating a confrontation between the two dragons.
At the same time, several water arrows were shot towards the walls of the Coastal city, but before they reached there, they were frozen in mid-air.
Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!
A figure was moving through the shadows of those fishmen.
With a single strike, the shadowy figure was either decapitating or seriously injuring them.
"Damn it! Jackor, I need your help."
A tall fishman with blue skin and tough texture roared, holding a trident while attacking the shadowy figure.
This forced Elena to come out of the shadows and block the strike, as staying in the shadows required a functioning shadow.
But with the fishmen dead around her, their shadows had also fallen.
The fishman named Jackor tried to run towards his comrade, but a large wall of ice blocked his way.
"Hey, hey, where do you think you’re going?"
"Damn it, you bitch! Face me seriously!"
Jackor roared as he watched Daisy turn his comrades into ice sculptures before breaking them into pieces.
He could neither save them nor help his comrade.
"Augen, we need to do something."
He helplessly turned towards the blue fishman who was fighting Elena and shouted.
Seeing the situation of his comrades, the fishman fighting Alfred raised his hand and shouted.
"Retreat! We need to retreat. Cover for our forces."
He looked at three humans and gritted his shark-like teeth. He was beyond angry. He lost nearly two hundred fishmen in this battle.
But humans barely lost twenty. That loss also forced those two women to take things seriously, making the battle even more devastating for them.
"You will not leave here."
Alfred roared, releasing a large axe from his spatial ring. The flames roared out of his body, cumulating into his axe as he jumped.
His arms swung, the axe roared down, creating a massive torrent of sharp flame.
The fishman sneered.
"An artifact might increase your power, but don’t forget I am a fishman. We control the seas."
He raised his hand, holding a trident as he began spinning it rapidly, creating a vortex of water above his head.
The flaming ax rained down like a meteor, but the water vortex managed to block it.
Augen and Jackor also did their best to give their people a chance to run away by attacking the weaker humans.
This forced Daisy and Elena to protect their people instead of targeting the fishmen.
After all, those two were Masters. A single attack from a Master could easily kill an Apprentice.
Even if there were hundreds of them, they were at the peak of the Mana Condensation Realm.
No one had the power to block those attacks.
"None of you are leaving!"
Daisy roared.
Her fury transformed into a massive blizzard that covered hundreds of fishmen at once.
Although some of those fishmen managed to break the ice and come out alive, most of them were frozen to their bones.
"Humph! You think you can leave so easily after waging war against the Coastal City."
Elena sneered and raised her hand as she condensed a large amount of dark energy above her head.
Before those fishmen raised their heads, that dark energy transformed into foot-long swords with sharp tips.
There were nearly hundreds of those swords that rained down on those fishmen.
"No, no, no, this wasn’t supposed to happen."
[Water Rage]
Augen roared, throwing a large blob of water that transformed into a massive shield, blocking dozens of those swords.
But before it could block all of them, most of those swords still managed to reach the fishmen and kill with ease.
"Retreat!"
Jackor’s eyes looked bloody as his body began producing red steam.
"Jackord, what are you doing?"
Augen couldn’t help but roar at him upon seeing his situation.
"Someone has to stop them! Go!"
Jackor roared, and his body produced red liquid that he shaped into ropes and threw them towards Daisy and Elena.
Daisy and Elena tried to dodge this, but the red rope was too fast. It instantly wrapped around their bodies.
Gritting their teeth, they tried to break it, but they found that their mana was suppressed.
At the same time, Jackor’s mana was also suppressed.
"Go! I can’t hold them for long."
When Jackor felt his mana depleting like crazy, his expression drastically changed. He turned his head and roared.
The fishmen teared up at his sacrifice but ran away.
Augen gritted his teeth and turned back to his comrade, running like hell.
On the other hand, the fishman fighting Alfred immediately ran away. Alfred didn’t chase him; instead, he rushed towards Jackor.
Although he wasn’t sure how long Jackor could find his mistresses, he didn’t like the sight of this.
Without any hesitation, he conjured a flaming sword in his hand and sliced his head off.
Thud!
"Damn! What kind of freaky technique was that?"
Elena cursed upon being freed.
On the other hand, Daisy calmly replied.
"It must be the forbidden Blood Manipulation of the Fishmen Race. Unlike Vampires, Fishmen can’t directly control blood."
"But if their strength is high enough, their control over water increases to control over liquid, which allows them to control Blood."
"He must have used a sacrificial technique to increase his strength to use that."
Hearing that, Alfred nodded.
"I’ve also heard about such a technique when I was searching for that information."
Elena turned around, looking at hundreds of people injured in the previous battle.
She cleared her throat before saying.
"I am very glad that all of you have fought this hard against the enemy. Before this battle, I didn’t make any promises."
"But now that the battle has ended, we will give each of you three Grade Two Mana Condensation Pills."
"The family of those who died here will receive the same benefits on top of five hundred spirit stones."
Her words sent shockwaves through those people.
When they joined this battle, they weren’t expecting any rewards. They just fought because this city and the Grant Family had truly been their home.
"Miss Elena, we didn’t fight this war for any rewards. This city is our home. It is our duty to protect it."
One of the older men stepped forward and spoke with a hoarse tone.
Although his decision caused some displeasure, most of them still nodded together.
Among thousands of humans, they were the only ones who came forward to fight this war. Naturally, they weren’t selfish people.
Elena smiled and said.
"I understand, Mr Robin. But if you don’t reach the Treasured Body Realm, you will lose your life at any moment in this war."
"So, this is not just a reward but also my expectations for you. Most of you have D-Grade Technique, so reaching the Treasured Body Realm shouldn’t be a problem."
Hearing that, Robin realized her intention but also felt incredibly glad to be working under the Grant Family.
"Thank you, Miss Elena!"
"Hmm! Get our fallen heroes to the city. We will hold their funeral tomorrow."
Elena gave them a command before turning towards Alfred.
"Alfred, please check our surroundings! There could be the forces of fishman waiting to attack."
Hearing that, Alfred nodded and left immediately.
Daisy walked closer to her and clicked her tongue.
"Wow! I never thought you would be so commanding. Are you trying to be the Mistress, Elena?"
Elena gave her a disdainful look and said.
"I was already the mistress, Daisy."
Daisy smirked and closed the gap as she asked.
"Tell me, why are you in such a hurry to consolidate your power? I noticed your performance, from assembling the army to strategizing the entire battle; it’s almost like you are worried someone will take away your position."
Elena wanted to ignore her, but then she realized something. Her expression darkened as she said.
"If you don’t want to be stepped on by those bitches, you should improve your strength, Daisy."
"Also, seal these words in the depths of your soul!"
Daisy’s expression darkened as she asked.
"What do you mean? What did you discover? Wait, is it about that technique and those women?"
Although Daisy didn’t know much about Tyler’s situation, she managed to learn a few things from him.
She knew about the existence of women who wanted to forcefully dual cultivate with Tyler.
"One of them has become Tyler’s teacher. Although I am grateful for what she did, I can never forget the look she gave me."
Elena ground her teeth. She was furious, but only her eyes glowed red as she continued.
"Checking your memories is child’s play for them! They don’t see us as his women but just as servants."
At this moment, Elena looked at Daisy and asked.
"Do you think I will not figure out your lust for Tyler?"
