164: perturbed

Soon, the Demon Dragon got busy again. Large amounts of flesh and blood fell away under its attacks, and were ultimately swallowed into its belly.

Nourished by the massive amount of nutrients, the Demon Dragon's strength improved rapidly, and those two "tumors" on the sides of its shoulders were also growing and taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Leviathan naturally also felt the pain inside its body; it had not expected that any creature could actually hop around inside it.

As the Demon Dragon's attacks went deeper, the pain in its stomach continued to worsen.

This was a situation it had never encountered since it was born, and it could not help but feel a bit panicked and at a loss.

It did not have very good means to deal with the enemy inside its body, and at this moment, it could not care about the remaining enemies; Leviathan quickly rushed back to the Merfolk Kingdom, preparing to seek help.

Seeing the enemy quickly disappear from view, Fire Kirin and the others looked at each other, not understanding why the mighty Leviathan had suddenly fled.

As for the army of sea monsters following behind Leviathan, they were miserable. The group of Tier 7 powerhouses, having lost their target, vented their anger on this group of sea beasts.

Facing this group of Tier 7 powerhouses, the sea beast army was soon wiped out, and after being ruled by the abyss, they joined Cain's navy.

The intense pain caused Leviathan to rampage on the seabed, churning the seawater along its path into mud.

The sea fish and sea beasts were unlucky again; under Leviathan's impact, who knows how many creatures were turned into blood.

Finally, it slammed into the coral palace of the Merfolk Kingdom, its massive tail fin directly sweeping away and collapsing nearly half of the palace, scaring the patrolling merman guards into scrambling away from the area.

The Mermen King was attracted by this huge commotion; unable to care about the casualties within the palace, he hurriedly came before Leviathan and asked, "Ancestor... what is this?"

Leviathan opened its bloody maw, and a low voice echoed in this sea area. "Something is wreaking havoc in my stomach, and I cannot digest it."

Upon hearing this, the Mermen King was shocked; he had not expected that his ancestor would actually suffer such an unexpected failure.

He hurriedly summoned the kingdom's ministers to discuss how to solve that "parasite."

Soon, the ministers crowded beside Leviathan, watching the ancestor caught in pain, and began to whisper and discuss among themselves.

The Minister of Military Affairs proposed sending the Merfolk Kingdom's Royal Guard into the ancestor's body to kill the enemy, but it was quickly rejected.

The ancestor's digestive ability was unquestionable; the Royal Guard would probably turn into a puddle of water before they even saw the enemy.

The Minister of Finance proposed injecting the venom of a Deep Sea Demon Snake into the ancestor to poison the enemy to death with strong toxin.

But looking at the ancestor's massive size, he couldn't help but shut his mouth.

In the end, a scholar proposed finding the general location of the stomach, slicing open the flesh from the outside, then dissecting it layer by layer, and finally cutting open the stomach to find the enemy.

But this was an extremely massive project, and implementing it was fraught with difficulties.

If the sliced area was too small, it wouldn't keep up with Leviathan's healing speed.

If the sliced area was larger, it would take too much time, and the ancestor would probably be tortured to death before the stomach was even found.

And even if all kinds of difficulties were overcome, what would happen after finally cutting open the stomach?

The stomach is so big; the enemy could completely avoid this area.

They would have no solution then; they couldn't just go inside after it, right?

The ministers reached a dead end, not knowing how to solve this difficult problem.

In the end, it was the High Mage of the Merfolk race who brought forward two plans.

First, find the enemy's location, have the High Mage lead a mage group to cast spells jointly, and use space magic to banish it to another place.

Second, gather all the War Song Sirens in the kingdom, chant the Dirge of Destruction together toward Leviathan's mouth, causing reflective resonance within the stomach to strengthen the power and eliminate the enemy.

After hearing this, the King felt that the High Mage's proposal was more reliable, and he hurriedly ordered the assembly of the mage group and all the War Song Sirens.

Not long after, the mage group of over ten thousand people arrived first. Under the guidance of the High Mage, the mage group formed an array and began to chant the spell of "Spatial Banishment" together.

The High Mage closed his eyes tightly, fully exerting detection magic to find the enemy's location.

Soon, the location of Leviathan's stomach was detected, and there was a "vacuum" area inside the stomach.

Having found the enemy's location, the High Mage felt reassured and guided the nearly completed Spatial Banishment spell to act on that area.

Soon, the joint spellcasting was nearing its end, and the Spatial Banishment was immediately unleashed.

The Demon Dragon, currently in the stomach, only felt the surrounding space fluctuate, and then... there was no then.

The Demon Dragon snorted, extremely disdainful of such petty tricks.

Its End Land domain had always been active; what could this tiny space magic do to it?

The Demon Dragon ignored it and continued to bury its head in eating.

At this time, the solemn-faced High Mage once again used detection magic to check the situation inside Leviathan's body.

The familiar "vacuum" area appearing again in his perception proved that their efforts had been in vain.

Looking at the expectant gazes of the King and the ministers, the High Mage sighed and slowly shook his head.

It seems this method did not work.

Everyone was a bit disappointed, and then they waited for the War Song Sirens to arrive.

Under the mobilization of the kingdom's massive machine, one Siren after another was sent to the palace by extremely fast sea beasts.

War Song Sirens are world-renowned for their singing voices. Their war songs can not only cause damage and chaos to enemies but also boost the morale of friendly forces, making them an extremely good support unit.

Relying on singing voices that can make people resonate emotionally, every War Song Siren is a master-level singer.

And in times of peace, countless "singing stars" have appeared among the War Song Sirens.

Soon, a large number of Sirens gathered within the palace.

These Sirens appeared extremely "fashionable" among the palace officials, each one dressed flamboyantly and dripping with jewels.

Clearly, the treatment of singers in this world is quite good.

After learning the purpose of the King's summons, the Sirens did not idle; they gathered together to discuss the repertoire to be used later.

Soon, they reached a consensus and decided to use the most powerful divine song — "Uneasy"!

This song has extremely strong lethality; if used on the battlefield, it could cause large-scale damage to enemy forces.

As time passed second by second, a large number of War Song Sirens had already gathered within the palace.

Seeing that there was little point in waiting any longer, the King immediately ordered the Sirens to assemble at Leviathan's head and enter its mouth to chant the war song.

Hearing that they had to enter Leviathan's mouth to sing, this group of Sirens was immediately displeased.

They were not soldiers; they only came here because of the King's summons.

Seeing that the ancestor was now in agonizing pain, what if it shivered and swallowed them?

Although it was their ancestor, they couldn't take such a huge risk; there were still many wonderful lives waiting for them.

So they protested loudly, "We are artists, not a suicide squad!"
