Path of light

Chapter 525 526. Falling out

The waves hit the rocks and instantly turned into countless white foam. A few sea skuas glided in the wind. Occasionally, they would pass by the rough sea to pick up small sea fish that were knocked unconscious by the waves.

In such stormy weather, the fishmen of Sun Island would hardly get too close to the reefs in the shallow waters, because the waves would push their bodies against the hard rocks.

Even if they are good at swimming in wind and waves, they cannot withstand the strong impact caused by turbulent waves, and they can easily be shattered into pieces on the sea rocks...

These Sun Island fishmen will sink to the bottom of the sea when the wind and waves are strong and hide in the gaps of the coral reefs to avoid the wind and waves.

This group of Sun Island fishmen who usually guard the north coast of Sun Island Bay no longer go to the north coast beach to harass the mixed elves there, at least they haven't done so in the past two weeks.

In the coral reef waters, you can see the two seawalls built around the port pier from a distance. The two seawalls are like horns, extending from the beach to the depths of the sea. At the end, the two seawalls are like horns. They are pressed together, and the difference between the two ends is only fifteen meters.

This semi-open circular seawall completely protects the pier.

At this moment, even though the wind and waves on the sea were very strong, there was still a group of mixed-blood elf warriors guarding the seawall to prevent the Sun Island fishmen from sneaking into the port dock.

…

Hezena was lying lazily on the seabed surrounded by coral reefs. Under her body was a large bed made of pearl oyster shells from the frozen sea. Although Hezena stretched out her body for almost five meters, she could still relax. Lie comfortably inside the pearl oyster and sleep.

On such stormy days, sleeping on the seabed is the most comfortable.

During the recent period, she watched with her own eyes as the port terminals on the north coast were built bit by bit, first the outer protective seawall, and then the port terminal completely protected by the seawall.

In fact, recently, she had also planned to send some Sun Island murlocs to sneak attack the port terminal there.

After the first few attempts, they were discovered and repelled by the mixed-blood elf warriors guarding the seawall...

Later, because there were too many murlocs killed in the Sun Island murloc force in her hand, it was no longer possible for the murloc warriors to use the human sea tactic to destroy the dock.

The Toadfish Cavalry was not a unit under Jiezena's command, so she could not order these Toadfish Cavalry to attack the port docks on the north coast with 'giant waves'.

I can only watch the sailing ship that can fly into the sky, parked alone in the port every day.

In fact, the reason why the Toad Army refused to attack the mixed elves was because they had been frightened recently by the Griffin Cavalry Regiment's high-altitude attacks.

In recent times, the Griffin Cavalry has found a way to restrain the Toadfish Cavalry. They transported several meters of stalagmites from the stalagmite forest and wandered around the north coast. As long as the Toadfish Cavalry appeared on the sea, they would There are bound to be several stalagmites several meters long falling from the sky.

Once passed by these stalagmites, the toad fish cavalry will almost always be firmly nailed to the seabed by the stalagmites.

Although these toad fish cavalry are very strong, they have almost no defense against the stalagmites falling from the sky.

After this continued for a period of time, the Toadfish Cavalry no longer dared to approach the waters on the north coast.

The night raid tactics of the Sun Island murlocs have completely lost their effectiveness in the past two weeks. Due to the existence of the circular seawall, these Sun Island murlocs will almost always encounter a group of people hiding in the dark when they cross the seawall at night. Elf warriors chased him.

Those elf warriors will only show their physical form at the moment when they kill the fishmen of Sun Island.

Coupled with the deterrence of the magic airship parked at the pier, the situation on the north coast has been completely stabilized.

In the past week or so, the fish people of Sun Island have almost been unable to get close to the north coast.

Jiezena lay on the bottom of the sea and sighed softly. She knew very well that the best period of fighting against the Elf Legion had completely passed.

Now that this elven army has begun to build a harbor and dock near the beach, the next move of this elven army is also obvious. It is basically making final preparations for the attack on Sun Island.

Now there are not that many murlocs on Sun Island, but the Elf Legion is still actively preparing for war.

The temper of Commander Latimore on Sun Island has become more and more weird, and he has become more and more wary of her. Every time he summons her to Sun Island, the expression on his face is like he wants to devour her.

And Commander Latimore's body is becoming more and more smelly, and his injuries should be gradually getting worse.

Jiezena had waited for so many years, and the last bit of patience in her heart had worn away.

Lying in the shell, she couldn't help but touch the dagger stuck on her lower back. She closed her eyes and imagined herself boarding the pirate ship alone, sneaking into the cold pool cave and cutting off the head of Commander Latimore with a sword.

A relieved smile appeared on Jiezena's face, and then she fell into a deep sleep...

…

"What has Zezena been doing these past few days?" Commander Latimore leaned weakly against the stone pillar, half of his body sinking into the cold pool and freezing into ice.

The four Siren captains looked sad and complained to Commander Latimore:

"You'd better get rid of Jiezena as soon as possible. In order to preserve her strength, she has been restraining her fish-men warriors and prohibiting them from sneak attacks on the north coast."

"We asked her to attack the dock on the north coast, but she ignored us!" Another siren leader complained.

"Even if Jie Zena dislikes you, she dare not do anything to you." Commander Latimore shook his head slightly and said hoarsely: "Don't think that I can suppress her now. That was before I died. She might know how to restrain herself. But after I die, you have to make some countermeasures. All my restrictions on her will no longer have any effect."

The echo in the cave was very heavy, overlapping, making Commander Latimore's voice louder.

"She has now stepped into the ranks of the second-level strongmen, but she still wants to stay here. I know what she is waiting for..." Commander Latimore said casually.

"What is she waiting for?" The four siren leaders asked casually.

Commander Latimore's body swayed, and he pointed to the ground under his feet weakly, saying: "This deep-sea monster under the island."

"Isn't it your contracted sea beast?" The faces of the four siren leaders changed drastically.

Commander Latimore shook his head helplessly, and then explained: "Our magic contract is not a symbiotic contract, but an equal contract. If I die, the contract will be completely invalid, and the sea beast will regain its freedom." "It has been sleeping under the island, so this is the reason." The four siren leaders suddenly realized and said. "It's waiting for me to die, and so is Jiezena. Maybe you are waiting for me to die too, but this time I can try these undead magic again!"

The four siren leaders were so frightened that their faces changed drastically, and they couldn't help shouting: "Commander Latimore, we..."

Commander Latimore waved his hand and said: "I can't parasitize on you. You don't have the chance to become a second-level strongman. If I parasitize on your body, you will never be able to break through your current achievements... Go and call Jiezena over."

"Yes!"

...

Jiezena was awakened from her sleep by two Sun Island fishmen. The two Sun Island fishmen knelt tremblingly beside the huge shell, fearing that Commander Jiezena would wake up from her sleep and cut off their heads with a sword.

As the Sun Island fishman told the message to Jie Zena, Jie Zena suddenly sat up from the huge shell and frowned to ask the fishman monster:

"Commander wants to see me at this time?"

The fishman monster quickly said: "Yes."

Jie Zena stretched out a hand and gently pinched her temple, while responding with a smile: "Got it!"

Stretching out two white lotus-like arms to gather the scattered hair behind her head, Jie Zena was a little hesitant in her heart.

Commander Latimore suddenly summoned her at this time, which made her alert...

Usually, this commander would not summon her like this...

Unless Commander Latimore called the other captains to his side.

In fact, as early as five years ago, Jie Zena had already made plans to leave the Sun Island Bay. He wanted to venture alone in this sea area of ​​the Partington plane.

But until now, Jie Zena has not been able to leave the Sun Island Bay.

In fact, it is not that she was banned by Commander Latimore and could not leave here.

She chose to stay because she hoped that Latimore could give her some help. After all, Commander Latimore was a very powerful sea beast priest.

To become a sea beast priest, one must almost be promoted to a second-level strongman, then prepare a magic contract, and then go to the deep sea to find monsters. As long as she can sign a magic contract with a deep-sea monster, she can become a new sea beast priest.

She has always hoped that Commander Latimore can give her some advice. She is only half a step away from breaking through the bottleneck of the second level.

Of course, this was just her previous idea...

Now, Jie Zena has changed her mind a long time ago, because she has not waited for Commander Latimore's guidance until now...

Jie Zena is currently waiting for Commander Latimore to die quickly, so that it is possible to reach a magic contract with the sea beast hidden under the island, and then start sharing power, and then push open the door to the second-level strongman.

She also knows that Commander Latimore's injuries have gradually worsened in recent years, and his physical condition is getting worse year by year.

Recently, Commander Latimore couldn't even get out of the Cold Pond Cave...

The only reason she stayed in the Sun Island Bay was to wait for Commander Latimore to die.

In fact, both sides had their own selfish motives...

Jizena didn't want to provoke Commander Latimore at this time, she just wanted to wait quietly for Commander Latimore to die.

But Commander Latimore summoned her at this time, and Jiezenna had a bad feeling.

...

At least half of the fishmen on the Sun Island were reduced. Jiezenna twisted her long snake tail, swam slowly, leaned forward, and boarded the island alone...

The fishmen on the island saluted her one after another.

Jiezenna ignored the fishmen at all. She pursed her lips and looked ahead silently.

When she came to the entrance of the Cold Pond Cave, Jiezenna hesitated for a moment, but in the end she gritted her teeth and swam in...

A cold breath made Jiezenna shiver, and a faint stench emanated from the cave.

The light in the cave was very dim, with only the cold water in the pool reflecting the bright light.

Commander Latimore leaned against a stone pillar, half lying and half sitting on it, with his entire snake tail resting in the cold pool, frozen into ice.

Commander Latimore's face was covered with a faint layer of white frost, and he was trembling constantly even when he spoke.

And his body has continued to rot, with only the white skeleton of his six arms left, a lot of rotten flesh hanging all over his body, and his face is also severely rotten.

Seeing Zezena walking in, Commander Latimore showed a gentle smile on his face, waved to her, and motioned for her to come closer.

Then a very worn-looking parchment booklet was thrown at Zezena's feet. Commander Latimore lowered his head very tiredly and said in a heavy voice:

"This is all my experience before I was promoted to a second-level powerhouse. I have prepared these for a long time and wanted to give them to you, but unfortunately I never had the chance."

When Jiezena saw the very old sheepskin book, her heart moved slightly, she took a step forward, and then stretched out her hand to pick up the magic book.

But just when her hand touched the sheepskin book, the rocky ground beneath the sheepskin book suddenly burst out with eight magic stripes, and these magic stripes quickly formed a magic pattern array.

Several chains appeared all around, wrapping around Zhezena's body almost at the same time, trapping her firmly.

Hezena tried to struggle hard with six arms, but she didn't know what material these chains were made of. Shezena couldn't tear open these chains with her own strength. When she saw Commander Latimore raised his head pitifully, , Jiezena asked loudly:

"Why are you doing this?"

Commander Latimore walked towards Zezena with a smile, his rotten arm holding a long sword, and his other hand holding a magic contract scroll.

"This is a soul contract scroll. If possible, I would like to exchange bodies with you. Your soul will live in my body, and my soul will be injected into your body. In this way, I can have a young and full of vitality. Body. Haha..."

Commander Latimore's voice was hoarse. He was not worried that Zezena would run away. After getting closer, he unfolded the magic pattern array.

Then there was a burst of spells, but what made Commander Latimore feel a little weird was that Zezena was actually reciting the same spell as Commander Latimore at the same time.

Commander Latimore looked at Zezena trapped in the chains with wide eyes.

"..."

"If I had met you in your heyday, I would have been able to capture you at this moment. But now you... If you want to capture me, you have to come up with some other means, Lord Commander!"

Zezena said in a soft voice.

"break"

As she shouted, the chains originally wrapped around her body shook off.

There was a "crash" sound.

Jiezena suddenly stood up from the broken chains...
