160: Sea Beasts War
Merfolk World
At this time, the Abyss Army led by Cain had already penetrated deep into the ocean, and his navalMain force had also been replaced by various sea beasts and monsters.
There was no other way; whether it was the Demonized Frogmen, Abyssal Snakemen, or Demonized Salamanders, their combat effectiveness was acceptable in shallow sea areas, but they became somewhat weak once they reached the deep sea.
Fortunately, many sea monsters had been resurrected during this period, which allowed the invasion war to continue.
At this time, the Merfolk Kingdom's army was not far from the Abyss Army; neither side rushed into battle, but instead sent out scouts to gather information.
The sea beasts on the Merfolk Kingdom's side had been carefully selected and cultivated over countless years; they were not only powerful in combat and numerous, but also cooperated extremely well with the Merfolk Kingdom's troops.
In contrast, the sea beasts on the Abyss's side were extremely disorganized; during their rampage, they killed whatever they encountered, without any discrimination.
Therefore, their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
When the Merfolk Kingdom's troops scouted the strength of the sea beasts, they showed extreme disdain.
How dare such a motley crew provoke the Merfolk Kingdom? It was like lighting a lamp in a latrine—courting death!
However, Cain was not in a hurry at all; even though the opposing sea beast army seemed to have an overwhelming advantage, if a real battle broke out, the Abyss's army would only grow stronger with each fight.
And the enemy was his own source of soldiers.
Soon, the Merfolk Kingdom's troops launched the first attack.
Under the command of their leader, countless sea beasts formed a formation and charged towards the Abyss Navy.
Leading the charge were the massive, fat-bodied "Pig Fish."
They were the best meat shields, capable of absorbing enemy damage.
Behind the Pig Fish were a group of Megalodon Sharks, a bloody and brutal group of predators that would never turn back once they charged forward.
Closely following them were a group of Thunder Electric Eel Dragons, known as "Ocean Lightning Attractors," whose high-voltage currents were invincible in the ocean.
And arrayed in the distance were also long-range attacking sea beasts such as Ice Shard Jellyfish and Wind Blade Swordfish.
The long-range attacks of these sea beasts were enough to tear apart enemy formations and cause heavy casualties.
Meanwhile, the native Merfolk Kingdom's troops of the Merfolk Kingdom's army were calmly nestled among these sea beasts.
Under normal circumstances, they did not need to act; they just needed to watch the battle from the sidelines.
The lives of those low-intelligence sea beasts were not valuable; they were abundant in the ocean, and if they died, they died.
As the ruling class, their lives were precious.
Of course, their combat effectiveness was also a notch weaker than that of the sea beasts.
The Abyss's scouts immediately reported the news of the incoming sea beasts to Cain.
However, Cain did not send his navy forward to meet the enemy; instead, he had them quickly surface and find a small island as a stronghold.
He planned to fight the enemy in shallow waters, trying to limit the opponent's advantages, and at the same time, leverage his own air force's advantages.
As expected, the massive bodies of the Pig Fish could not approach the shallow sea area and could only circle the small island.
The Megalodon Sharks then took on the role of vanguards, with large groups of Megalodon Sharks charging and killing their way towards the Abyss Navy.
And the long-range units were not idle either; ice shards, wind blades, and electric currents assailed the Abyssal sea beasts.
The sea beasts on the Abyss's side were extremely disorganized and appeared somewhat chaotic when facing long-range attacks.
Cain did not let them directly charge at the long-range units in the deep sea, to prevent being kited by the enemy.
Instead, he had them all encircle the Megalodon Sharks, preparing to gradually wear down the Merfolk Kingdom's army.
These Megalodon Sharks charged up and immediately started biting, completely disregarding their own safety; sometimes, when they got too excited, they even attacked their own comrades.
But it must be admitted that the attack power of these madmen was extremely astonishing; the Abyssal sea beasts gained no advantage whatsoever against the Megalodon Sharks, which were far fewer in number.
Cain had the air force also focus fire on the Megalodon Sharks, which only slightly turned the tide.
And the Merfolk Kingdom's long-range units were even more formidable, killing a large number of sea beasts with each round of attack.
Soon, this sea area was dyed red with blood.
And the Megalodon Sharks, affected by the strong scent of blood, also had their eyes turn red.
When the Abyss Army had completely annihilated all the Megalodon Sharks, their navy was already very few in number.
The Merfolk Kingdom's army leader felt greatly reassured; now, as long as they eliminated the flies in the sky, they could return victorious.
It commanded the long-range units to kill the remaining sea beasts, then pressed forward, surfacing to bombard the air force.
As the long-range units slowly ascended to the surface, Cain's message also reached the Abyss.
In an instant, dozens of teleportation portals opened amidst the Merfolk Kingdom's troops; some Merfolk Kingdom's and sea beasts that couldn't dodge in time were swept into the portals, instantly disappearing from their original positions.
Subsequently, countless sea beasts rushed out of the teleportation portals, directly crashing into the Merfolk Kingdom's army and initiating a bloody massacre.
And among this group of sea beasts, there was even a considerable number of Megalodon Sharks!
However, these Megalodon Sharks were slightly different from those of the Merfolk Kingdom's troops; their eyes glowed green, and black lines coiled around their bodies.
These Megalodon Sharks charged into the Merfolk Kingdom's army, their massive mouths constantly tearing at nearby enemies.
Once bitten by them, unless the Megalodon Shark was killed in time, one would be torn to shreds.
This caused great chaos for the Merfolk Kingdom's army, catching them off guard by the Abyssal sea beasts.
The Merfolk Kingdom's leader was startled by this sight; it had not expected the enemy to have such a trick.
It hastily ordered the army to form small square formations to defend against the enemy and dispatched close-combat sea beasts to provide support.
As for the dozens of teleportation portals, they were avoided from a distance.
No matter where the other side was, for these marine creatures, their own ocean was the safest place.
The Merfolk Kingdom's troops, entangled with the Abyssal sea beasts, could no longer pay attention to the enemies in the sky, each trying their best to shake off the enemies around them.
Meanwhile, the elves and bloodline army in the sky seized this opportunity to unleash their attacks without restraint.
The high-ground attacks caused significant casualties to the Merfolk Kingdom's troops.
And although the small square formations formed by the Merfolk Kingdom's troops gradually stabilized, they were still somewhat constrained when facing the close-quarters entanglement of the Abyssal sea beasts.
Cain, who had been observing the battle, felt greatly reassured.
As long as he could tie down this force, he could wear them down with infinite resurrections.
Once this Merfolk Kingdom's army was defeated, he would also have a respectable army, and he would not be caught off guard when facing the Merfolk Kingdom.
The Merfolk Kingdom's leader also realized at this point that something was wrong.
These sea beasts seemed endless, no matter how many were killed, they were quickly replenished.
Moreover, as their own sea beasts died, the enemy's forces gained corresponding sea beasts.
Although their appearance and demeanor had greatly changed, one could still see the shadow of their own sea beasts.
An extremely alarming thought appeared in its mind.
The enemy had a means of resurrection!
Not only could they resurrect their own army, but they could also resurrect the Merfolk Kingdom's army!
The most outrageous thing was that the resurrected army even gained enhancements, becoming significantly stronger than when they were under their control!
This discovery somewhat horrified the Merfolk Kingdom's leader.
It quickly summoned a small swordfish to relay this message to the kingdom.
Facing this rogue resurrection mechanism, the only way was to directly destroy the enemy forces with absolute overwhelming power.
