From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star
Chapter 350: Dramatic Changes in the Siren Tribe
When the Dark Iron Dwarves and the Sirens were negotiating on the Moon Turbid Beach, a major event was happening in the Sirens' Temple of Vashj.
The Sirens in the Tidal Sea are divided into three tribes. All three tribes believe in the Sea God, but there are some differences.
The tribe ruled by High Priest Sona worships the Temple of Vashj and is also known as the Vashj Sirens.
This tribe holds the scepter of the Sea God, and the scepter is inlaid with the gem [Heart of the Tide] that contains the power of the Sea God.
This is the strongest foundation of the Vashj Sirens.
In addition, there are two other Sirens tribes in the Tidal Sea, namely the Tide Sirens and the Shallow Sirens.
The three Sirens tribes are separated from the same Sirens tribe. The reason for the formation of the three Sirens tribes is mainly because of their different habitats.
The Tide Sirens live in the deep sea and prefer to live in the darker deep sea, while the Shallow Sirens live in the Storm Bay with high winds and rough waves.
The Shoal Sirens are more like an amphibious race, spending more time on land than other Sirens.
Of course, this is only compared with the other two Sirens. The Shoal Sirens spend most of their time in the sea, and only about a quarter of their time on land.
Even so, the Shoal Sirens are indeed the most adept at land operations among the three Sirens tribes.
Among the three Sirens tribes, the Vashj Sirens have always been the most powerful branch, because of the gem [Heart of the Tide] on the Scepter of the Sea God.
This is the embodiment of the supreme authority of the Sirens.
[Heart of the Tide] is managed by the high priest of each generation of the Vashj Sirens tribe, and is also responsible for governing the Tidal Sea.
It is precisely because of the importance of this Sea God gem that the three Sirens tribes want to master this gem.
In the history of the Sirens, there was an internal fight among the three tribes for the Sea God Gem.
However, this infighting will not develop into a fight between tribes, but will only start a small-scale competition among the tribal leaders.
...
At this moment.
The Tide Sirens and the Shallow Sirens appeared outside the Temple of Vashj, and the priests and elders of the two tribes were confronting the High Priest Sona in the hall of the temple.
In addition to the priests and elders of the Tide Sirens and the Shallow Sirens, there was another elder in the dome hall, the elder of the Vashj tribe, Onatu.
Onatu was placed under house arrest by High Priest Sona, but this order was not mandatory.
Even if the guards wanted to stop him, they could not.
However, at this moment, he did not stand on the side of High Priest Sona, but stood with the elders of the other two Siren tribes.
High Priest Sona had a cold expression and asked, "Onatu, what are you doing?"
Onatu bowed his head and saluted: "High Priest, you are too kind. Some things are not decisive enough. I hope to correct some of the High Priest's wrong decisions."
Sona scolded: "Do you want to take my position?"
Onatu knelt on one knee: "I have the highest loyalty to the High Priest and the tribe, but I must do something for the future of the tribe.
"As long as the High Priest agrees to my three conditions, I will still be the High Priest's most loyal supporter."
Obviously, what happened in this temple today was a coup d'état by the Sirens.
Or to put it another way, it can be called forcing the palace.
Onatu's own power was not enough to fight against the authority of High Priest Sona, so he joined forces with two other Sirens tribes to besiege the Temple of Vashj in order to achieve the purpose of forcing the palace.
Sona's face was gloomy and asked: "Tell me, what are your demands? "
Onatu stood up and said seriously: "First, unlock the seal of the deep frozen trench and release the embers of Gros inside."
Sona's eyes sank and asked: "Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?"
Onatu said as a matter of course: "I know, this will make the fire demon Gros revive earlier."
Sona: "Since you know, you still dare to make such a request?"
Onatu spread his hands and replied: "Did the high priest misunderstand something? The fire demon Gros and our sirens have never been hostile.
"On the contrary, we have a common enemy with the fire demon Gros, that is, the Dark Iron Dwarves.
"I have communicated with the will of the fire demon Gros. When the fire demon Gros is revived, it will immediately leave the tidal sea and return to the lava crown.
"By then, the deteriorated environment of the Tidal Sea will recover quickly, the rising sea temperature will slowly drop, and the habitat of our Sirens will return to what it was before."
The High Priest Sona's eyes condensed, and she angrily questioned: "How dare you contact the will of Gross in the Deep Frozen Trench privately!"
Onatu answered frankly: "I am considering the future of the tribe. The Fire Demon Gross is an elemental creature on land, and a fire creature, and will never enter the ocean.
"Moreover, the reason why we are troubled by the Fire Demon Gross is entirely because the Dark Iron Dwarves dumped volcanic ash into the Tidal Sea.
"I did this just to let the Fire Demon Gross return to where it should be. It is the master of the Lava Crown, and it was the Dark Iron Dwarves who robbed its territory.
"The Dark Iron Dwarves have occupied the Lava Crown for more than a hundred years. It is time to return it to its original owner. "
The high priest Sona fell silent.
From the perspective of the Sirens, Onatu's statement is not completely unreasonable.
Under normal circumstances, the Fire Demon Gross cannot enter the Tidal Sea, after all, water and fire are incompatible.
The Sirens live in the deep sea, and there is no conflict in living environment with the Fire Demon Gross.
In other words, the resurrection of Balrog Gross will not pose a direct threat to the Kraken clan.
On the contrary, sealing the Ember of Gros in the deep-frozen trench increased the temperature of the seawater and destroyed the habitat of the Sirens.
From this perspective, it is in the interests of the Kraken clan to release the Balrog Gross and let the Balrog Gross go back to seek revenge on the Black Iron Dwarves.
This is why Onatu has received a lot of Siren support.
High Priest Sona's face became more and more solemn as she asked, "The Flame Demon Groth may not threaten the fate of our tribe, but what about the Abyss? Have you ever considered the issue of the Abyss?"
Onatu waved his hand and responded: "That is another matter. Things must be dealt with one by one. The matter of the Black Iron Dwarf and the Fire Demon Groth should be solved first, and then the problem of the pollution of the abyss."
Sona took a deep breath, forced herself to remain calm, and asked, "Where are the other two requests?"
Onatu continued: "Second point, issue a pursuit order to hunt down human recruiters, and prohibit these recruits from approaching the deep-frozen trench and our clan's territory.
“Third point, it doesn’t matter if Selian has signed a settlement agreement with the Dark Iron Dwarves.
“The end of the Dark Iron Dwarves has come, whether we reconcile with them or not will not affect what happens next.
"But there is one requirement. If the Dark Iron Dwarves ask for help from our clan, the High Priest shall not provide assistance to the Dark Iron Dwarves for any reason."
After listening to his request, Sona already guessed what would happen next.
He even blocked the idea of aiding the Dark Iron Dwarves.
The reason for this requirement is simple.
Once the Balrog Groth recovers, there will inevitably be a fight with the Dark Iron Dwarves in the Crown of Lava.
In this world, among the races that have the ability to fight against the Balrog Gross, the Sirens are undoubtedly the number one.
Because the Kraken clan controls the most powerful ocean power in the world, and water restrains fire, the Kraken clan is the nemesis of the Balrog Gross.
Once the Balrog Gross recovers and fights with the Dark Iron Dwarves, the Dark Iron Dwarves are likely to request rescue from the Sirens.
Onatu has already calculated this, so he made this request in advance.
Sona thought for a long time and asked coldly: "What if I don't agree to your request?"
Onatu bowed his head and replied: "Then please ask the high priest to temporarily hand over the [Heart of the Tide] and let me keep it temporarily. After the incident of Balrog Gross is over, I will apologize to the high priest."
Sona clenched her fists and yelled angrily: "Onatu!"
Onatu said in a deep voice: "High Priest, time is pressing. Please make a decision immediately and agree to my request. I will only keep the [Heart of the Tide] temporarily. After the Dark Iron Dwarves destroy the country, the High Priest will still be the leader of the Vashj Temple." host."
"Onatu!" Sona's eyes turned cold, she raised the Poseidon's scepter and stomped on the ground, releasing a whirlpool of water that rolled up Onatu and trapped her in mid-air.
Onatu opened his arms, allowing the high priest Sona to restrain him, and said, "High Priest, you can kill me, but everything I do is for the future of the tribe."
Seeing Sona take action, the other two elders and priests of the Kraken tribe took action together, releasing various attack methods such as water currents, ice crystal harpoons, etc., to attack Sona.
Sona raised her palm and released the power of [Heart of the Tide] to hold up a water curtain barrier to resist the attack.
Both sides fought with restraint, not wanting to damage the decorations in the temple.
After all, this is the temple of their Kraken clan, the most sacred place in the hearts of the Kraken.
Although the two sides fought with restraint, the level of power released was not low at all.
The collision of water currents shook out circles of energy ripples, causing the entire sea area to shake.
High Priest Sona angrily shouted: "Are you going to rebel too?"
The two elders of the Kraken tribe responded solemnly: "We are also doing this for the future of the tribe. Sona, you are not suitable to sit in the position of high priest."
In the Siren Clan, each generation of high priests of the Vashj tribe selects the strongest Tidecaller from the tribe to inherit the [Heart of the Tide].
Sona is now the most powerful Tidecaller among the Sirens, and has the ability to control the water in the entire sea.
She could easily pull up the tide, but now she was facing a fellow siren, and she couldn't kill him.
The battle continued, and the concussive energy caused the entire temple to shake.
The entire Kraken tribe was suddenly panicked. They knew something big had happened in the temple, but it was not something they could participate in.
As the energy of the attack became more and more fierce, cracks began to appear on the pillars of the temple.
The high priest Sona's face became even more angry, and she used the power of the Poseidon Gem to send a stream of water flying away an elder of the Trench Tide Siren.
The elder of the Groucho Siren flew backwards, hit the wall of the temple, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood instantly dyed the sea water red, filling the entire temple with the smell of blood.
The high priest of the Trench Sea Monster turned around and saw that his elders were seriously injured and dying, and angrily shouted: "Sona, you are so soft-hearted towards foreign races, why are you so cruel to your own race?"
Sona also saw the seriously injured Groucho Siren Elder, her heart trembled, she sighed, and slowly withdrew the Poseidon's power.
After the battle, the two sea monsters immediately stepped forward, surrounded Sona, and ordered him to hand over the [Heart of the Tide].
If Selian were here, she would choose to hand over [Heart of Tide] to Selian for safekeeping, but now Selian has gone out and is responsible for the peace talks with the Dark Iron Dwarves.
If you give [Heart of the Tide] to the Trench Tide Siren and Shoal Siren, it will be difficult to get it back later.
By that time, the power structure within the Sirens will undergo a dramatic change.
After much thought, she could only hand over the [Heart of the Tide] to Onatu.
Onatu knelt on one knee, took the Seagod Scepter with both hands, and received it respectfully: "I will definitely keep the [Heart of the Tide] safe, and return it to the High Priest in person after the Fire Demon incident is over."
Sona didn't want the Sirens to kill each other, so she waved her hand and closed her eyes.
...
On the other side.
On the Moon Turbid Beach.
The peace talks between the Dark Iron Dwarves and the Sirens have ended.
When Celian was about to return to the temple to report, she received urgent intelligence from her subordinates.
As the tide-calling elder of the Sirens, Celian has a high status in the Sirens, no less than Onatu.
She may even be the candidate for the next generation of High Priest.
However, the current High Priest Sona is still at her most prosperous period, and it is too early to mention the replacement of the High Priest.
Among the guards of the tribe, many are Celian's confidants.
Therefore, when something happened in the Temple of Vashj, she was far away at the Moon Turbid Beach, but she still received the information in the first place.
However, the Moon Turbid Beach is at least half a day's journey away from the temple. If she rushes back now, she can't do anything.
Such a forced palace incident, whether successful or unsuccessful, will not last too long.
By the time she rushes back, the forced palace incident has already ended.
If the high priest Sona wins this incident, she doesn't need to rush back, and can return according to the normal plan.
Once the high priest Sona loses, then Onatu and the other two sea monster tribes will be in power. At that time, if she goes back again, she will most likely be arrested.
After all, she is Sona's confidant and an extension of Sona's will.
In other words, if she rushes back now, not only will she not be able to help the high priest, but it will make the tribe more unfavorable.
As she expected, she received the news that the high priest Sona was under house arrest in the temple, and the [Heart of the Tide] was also handed over to Onatu for safekeeping.
Celian was very angry, but she calmed down quickly. She did not choose to return to the tribal territory as soon as possible, but turned to find the leader of the human recruiters.
The leader of the human recruiters she was looking for was naturally Lu Heng.
"I have something to tell you. Onatu joined forces with the other two sea monster tribes to rebel and seized the sea god scepter of the high priest."
Lu Heng heard the news and showed surprise on his face: "This is... a coup in your sea monster tribe?"
While speaking, Lu Heng quickly searched for relevant information in his memory.
However, he did not find any information about the coup in the sea monster tribe in his memory.
After a little thought, he understood what was going on.
One of the important reasons for the coup in the sea monster tribe this time was that Onatu was demoted and placed under house arrest by the high priest Sona.
Because Onatu was demoted, he launched a coup.
In other words, if there had been no conscripts to facilitate reconciliation between the two tribes in the previous life, there would have been no peace talks.
If there had been no peace talks, Onatu would not have been demoted, and naturally there would have been no coup.
The current situation is the result of a series of butterfly effects, and the development of events is completely different from the previous life.
