Chapter 938 · Return of the Dead
How many murlocs are there in the main plane?
No one has counted them in detail, but the number can be estimated.
The fertility of murlocs is ridiculously strong. Adult murlocs can lay eggs once a year, about a thousand eggs each time. The eggs can hatch after thirty days, and they can grow large enough to reproduce in about three years. Theoretically, a pair of adult murlocs can become a thousand adult murlocs plus two thousand juvenile murlocs in three years, and in another three years they can become... Let's not calculate it, that number is enough to make anyone with normal intelligence feel despair.
Ordinary people often use "millions of troops" to describe the size of the army, but for murlocs, a mere million is not a "large army" at all - any time the sea tribe invades, the number of murloc troops is at least several million, and tens of millions are not uncommon.
That is generally just the number of murlocs in a sea area.
If murlocs were not barely considered monsters, and could survive only by absorbing magic power, and had a low survival rate and a high mortality rate, I'm afraid that it wouldn't take many years for the world to be full of murlocs.
This time, all the fishmen from the entire main plane gathered in the sea area south of the Supreme Tower. How many of them could there be?
Billions? Hundreds of billions? Or more?
Anyway... even if the mages of the Secret Tower Federation continued to bombard and kill hundreds of fishmen every second, it would not be a big loss for the entire army of fishmen.
This loss would not be taken seriously by an ordinary large fishman tribe, let alone the army of fishmen from the entire main plane.
Watching the endless army of fishmen rushing onto the land from the sea, one after another without stopping, the mages in the Supreme Tower looked a little ugly.
"There are too many of them!"
"Aren't these fish usually bullying the weak and fearing the strong? They scatter after a little fight. Why are they so brave today?"
"Could they be controlled by that fish Sila?"
"It's possible. If they are not controlled, who would die like this?"
"In fact, for fish people, dying is nothing. Their most common problem is that there are too many of them..."
Amid the messy whispers, the legendary wizards had gloomy faces and discussed with the sound transmission spell.
"Yusila's aura hasn't disappeared, and this guy hasn't left yet."
"What is it thinking? Can it still take advantage of staying here? It's better to get out of here as soon as possible!"
"I guess it wants to get more sacrifices. After all, those fishmen have less of everything but more people. Population, isn't that equal to sacrifices?"
"The devil's thoughts are not something we can understand. We just need to do our own things well."
"Should we try to attack? Maybe we can drive Yusila away."
"...Don't make things complicated. Anyway, at most it can last for a day. After a day, even if Yusila doesn't want to leave, he will be rejected by the main plane."
"That's good, safety first. Now is a turbulent time, and there are wars everywhere. If we can avoid trouble, we should not cause trouble."
"But now the trouble has come to us!"
"There's nothing to be afraid of. If it's just the current level, it doesn't matter how long we fight. A mere fishman, do you want to break through our Supreme Tower? That's a joke!"
At this point, the legendary wizards couldn't help laughing.
Just as the mage said just now, the fighting power of the fishmen is very weak. Not to mention that there are so many mage defenses in the Supreme Tower now, even if it is just an empty magic tower, they may not be able to break through - the solid walls and gates are enough to stop them.
In this case, what is there to be afraid of?
After the legendary mages discussed it, they arranged the work. The middle and high-level mages formed teams and took turns to enter the defense position to launch attacks, while the middle and low-level mages continued to meditate and replenish the mana of the magic pool. The legendary mages took turns to rest to ensure that there were two or three on duty at any time.
Such an arrangement should be enough.
As for those fishmen who stupidly kept attacking the defense line, let's give the young people some practical experience at that time, or practice shooting.
From legendary mages to magic apprentices, no one took the fishmen seriously.
Under the sea, the incarnation of Yusila was gradually shrinking.
Along the wonderful connection between the incarnation and the main body, the energy of its main body was also being continuously extracted.
The extracted energy was not directly absorbed by the glowing phantom, but was first absorbed by the golden-green spear, then filtered through the skeleton altar, and finally only pure power was left, flowing into the glowing phantom.
This arrangement can be called ingenious. It uses poison to fight poison, using the crazy power of large-scale blood sacrifice to absorb the chaotic attributes from the abyss. The two powers merge with each other and stay in the skeleton altar, allowing the altar to continue to strengthen, and eventually it will become a chaotic and evil artifact.
At the same time, the filtered pure power is supplied to the fictitious "Murphy God", so that this god who is being born can get the best nutrients and grow most stably.
And the spear that was once the halberd of the sea king was also constantly tempered and improved in this process, and finally restored to the level of an artifact.
When the newborn Murphy God grows up, there will be two powerful artifacts to use immediately. Among those new gods, he can be regarded as a top figure.
This idea is so ingenious that the elders of the fishmen studied and pondered for a long time, but could not find any problems. That is why they acted according to the arrangement of the God of Conspiracy without worrying about any conspiracy.
Besides, no matter what conspiracy there is, the God of Conspiracy has fallen anyway, so what is there to be afraid of? What is there to worry about?
Even if the God of Conspiracy sets a trap, can the dead Him come back to life and receive the spoils?
In the abyss, Yusila's body gradually weakened.
The key point of the God of Conspiracy's plan is to plunder its power.
As a demon in the form of a fishman, it does have an indescribable relationship with the fishmen in the main plane. If it can wash away the chaos and madness in its soul, or even just weaken it a little, and then leave the abyss, it can easily become the God of the Fishmen.
But Yusila did not do so after all. It would rather be the king of the abyss with a group of fishman-shaped demons than to really embark on the path of gods.
Demons are demons after all. Their extremely chaotic nature makes them unable to tolerate being bound, even if they become gods.
Now, it has paid the price for its chaotic nature.
If it is the God of Fishmen, then all the arrangements are useless to it - the power from the sacrifice of fishmen will not work for the God of Fishmen.
However, it refuses to become the God of Fishmen.
Then the part of its power that belongs to "fishmen" cannot refuse the call from the sacrifice of fishmen, and is being drawn continuously.
I don't know how long it took, but the connection was suddenly interrupted. The Abyss Lord, who was so weak that he could hardly stand, immediately screamed and completely cut off the connection with the main plane.
In the next few hundred or thousand years, it probably won't dare to contact the main plane again.
And under the sea surface of the southern sea area of the Supreme Tower, the glowing shadow finally became clearer.
He has scales similar to those of a murloc, but has pointed ears and long smooth hair that murlocs never have. His slender figure and upright posture are completely different from the murlocs who always hunch over.
Facing the bewildered murloc elders, He smiled slightly, and a hooded robe was already on his body, covering the whole person in a shadow.
In the Pantheon, the seat of the God of Conspiracy, which had collapsed and disappeared before, reappeared.
Not long after his fall, the God of Conspiracy resurrected!
