Chapter 138 The Great Tide Arrives
The next day, the entire city of Donghai was enveloped in a dense magical aura. It felt as if different magical elements had transformed into visible force fields, colliding fiercely throughout the colorful city...
The tide kept surging up, initially a hundred meters away from the low dike, exposing a patch of mud and sand. The seawater gradually crashed against the low dike, each impact becoming stronger, the sound of the waves like a roar, the spray like a torrential rain!
Donghai City was divided into thirty-two blocks, and several mages stood on the rooftops of the buildings in each block. From a high vantage point, the number of these mages was equally astonishing.
The tidal wave crashing against the city at this moment is not the natural tide, but a demonic tide sung by countless sea monsters. Its surging height easily swept over the low dike, like a giant blue and white tongue, about to engulf this sea city in the belly of the sea!
A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire East Sea City, and even the force of the crashing tides caused the ground to tremble.
Amidst the blue and white surging tide, countless black dots are scattered throughout. From a distance, it's impossible to tell what they are; only upon reaching this place do you realize they are sea monsters emerging from the ocean waves!
After the tide rushed into Donghai City, it was divided into countless streams by the buildings. Each stream, like a flood, filled the streets and submerged the lower half of the buildings.
"These buildings were specially reinforced to withstand the tidal surge, but so many of them were still washed away, which has drastically reduced our activity area."
Jiang Yu stood on the edge of the building, watching the torrents rushing and crashing down below, his heart pounding in his chest.
"Waaaa~ Waaaa~ Waaaa~~"
Just then, the sound of a baby crying came from below, the sound filled with unease and fear of the approaching tide.
"Holy crap, whose kid got swept into the waves!" Zhao Manyan exclaimed as he heard it.
"Go save them!" Nan Rongni didn't think too much and immediately tried to jump towards the building next to her.
"That's not a child." Lu Jie stopped her, his gaze quickly locking onto the source of the crying.
The air was thick with fog, and people could only rely on sound to distinguish objects; they couldn't see distant objects at all.
"How can you be so heartless? What makes you think that's not a child?" Nan Rongni questioned.
Lu Jie glanced at her and said, "Believe it or not, your Nanrong family is quite knowledgeable about sea monsters. Don't you know that some sea monsters can imitate the cries of infants?"
After saying that, he threw a fireball toward the source of the crying. As a result, a bald head suddenly popped out of the sleeping bag. But it was not the small head of an infant. It was clearly a fleshy tumor that had grown on an extremely ugly head!
Seeing that its disguise had been seen through and that humans were attacking it, it stopped pretending and jumped out directly.
"It's Bai Qi Yao!" Nan Rong Ni exclaimed in disbelief.
Bai Qiyao let out a sharp, piercing cry, her eerie eyes fixed on Lu Jie on the rooftop.
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss!"
Bai Qiyao opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of venom, smearing it all over a wall.
The corrosive power of this venom was terrifying. The rock walls melted at a visible speed, and several layers of walls were completely hollowed out.
Everyone was startled by what they saw. This thing was no ordinary warrior-level demon; its venom was terrifying.
"Quickly, jump to another building!"
Suddenly, someone shouted, and Jiang Yu and the others, who were standing in the corroded building, jumped up.
Seeing this, the White Cry Demon stretched out its arms, intending to attack the people leaping in the air.
The long arm, as sharp as a steel spear, stabbed fiercely towards him!
"Holy crap!" Jiang Yu yelled.
Seeing this, Lu Jie grabbed a vine and wrapped it around Jiang Yu, then threw it at him. He then used spatial magic to knock away Bai Qiyao's arm, which was as strong as a steel spear.
"Thank you very much," Jiang Yu said after landing on the building.
At this moment, the White Cry Demon leaped up with its powerful hind legs, its entire pale body transforming into a color-changing sharp cone as it charged toward Lu Jie.
Lu Jie remained calm upon seeing this. His Sharingan detected its movement trajectory, and he immediately used space-based magic to control and disperse it, sending it back into the water.
Lu Jie landed on the rooftop, and Ai Jiangtu then said, "The Siren Legion is here! Everyone, be careful!"
Ever since Bai Qiyao was knocked back into the water by Lu Jie, his gaze has never left the constantly surging seawater below.
At this moment, many creatures with fan-shaped fins on their heads appeared below them. Their bodies were green with rough skin, and their lower bodies were similar to the White Cry Demon from before, resembling frogs. They could swim in the water and stand on the shore!
"Without scales, they should be easier to deal with," Nan Jue immediately analyzed.
She could roughly tell from the skin and flesh of these jagged green monsters that they were probably a group of warrior-level creatures.
These people didn't have much trouble dealing with the warrior-level creatures, but soon more heads emerged from the seawater along the entire street. Because they all had spikes on their heads, they looked like giant sea urchins floating on the surface of the sea, almost covering the entire wide street.
This street was guarded by their team, and as the spikes became denser, everyone's mood grew heavy.
With their amazing jumping ability, the jagged green monsters leaped directly out of the water and clung to the narrow balconies of the buildings. These balconies were originally meant for mages to rest on, but now they were all occupied by these sea monsters. Their gray eyes stared with deathly light, full of a thirst for battle!
"Form ranks!" Nan Jue shouted as he saw the sea monsters attacking.
The team members immediately dispersed to the rooftops of several other buildings, keeping them close enough to each other while still having sufficient space to fight.
"The Sawtooth Green Demon excels in close combat, enjoys dismemberment, and is non-toxic, but be careful of its fan-shaped sea urchin spines on its head, which have a paralyzing effect on the nerves. Once you are stabbed, you will be unable to move." Jiang Yu quickly relayed the information about the Sawtooth Green Demon to everyone.
"Are there any obvious weaknesses?" Ai Jiangtu looked around, roughly memorizing the number of the jagged green monsters that had climbed up.
"no."
"Do you possess any sorcery?"
"I can walk on water and spew water, but I don't have any special sorcery," Jiang Yu said.
Nan Jue closed his eyes and used his sound system to detect the number of the jagged green monsters that had climbed up.
"A total of 37 have climbed up; the number in the water is currently unknown."
"So you're a sound-based mage." Zhao Manyan was somewhat surprised; this was even rarer than a space-based mage.
"Zhao Manyan, you are at six o'clock." Lu Jie's voice came at this moment.
Zhao Manyan turned around, and the next second a jagged green monster climbed up from under the wall and stared at him intently.
