Chapter 771: Clashing with the Sea Folk

Sam reached near enough to be in the visible range of the Sea folk that are guarding the bubble.

The Sea folks looked at Sam and they became a bit restless. It has been decades since aby human or elf came this deep into the sea.

The guards here are actually pretty lax because of that.

But now they already learned of someone causing trouble to them in shallow waters and their watchers are all gone. There is an anomaly the previous night and now there is a human coming towards them.

Three Sea folks swam towards Sam with water spears forming their hands. They are extremely fast. Sam aimed his harpoon gun and pulled the trigger.

The harpoon left the gun with the large wind jet blasting it forward and it impaled itself into the sea folk that is in the front.

The sea folks are obviously not as thick as a beast and their bodies are more or less the same sizes as a normal human.

But the harpoon didn’t just go through him. The gel-like thick, viscous flesh that has extreme resistance for stabs and impaling was pierced and the spear tip of the harpoon gun was stuck in the flesh. The body and the harpoon flew backward until the cable obtained the required tension and the wind jet is over.

After the required tension was attained the spear was open and the trap held the flesh, but some of the tips came out of the skin as the harpoon is obviously too big for this guy.

A path of blue blood was created in the water. The remaining two sea folks halted in their tracks and looked at Sam with furious expression. The remaining sea folks at the bubble were also stunned. They all went to quickly save their comrade.

But the sea folk that was impaled is struggling too much and had a chunk of flesh removed out of his body.

The flesh is also blue in color the harpoon trap was completely activated and the spear returned to its original shape as Sam retraced the cable.

This is the second generation of the Harpoon gun. It is superior to the first one in every way. The compressed air cylinders are actually upgraded and their effect is enhanced with an inscription array that could increase the thrust of the air jet.

All the metallic parts are upgraded with better materials. The spear traps that hold the chunk of flesh in the target are also upgraded. It became more sensitive to motion and force and finally, it can deal with Pre-transcendent stage cultivators.

Sam is really satisfied with this.

He stored this harpoon gun away and took another one. Another Harpoon gun is of first-generation. The one he used in the merman planet.

He locked it and loaded as he waited for sea folk to come.

The first target was clearly injured and couldn’t be recovered any time soon.

Two sea folks held that person and took him inside the large bubble with these weird pods.

Sam couldn’t see every single component of the hemisphere as it is as big as a village. But there seemed to be a healing means for them in that hemisphere.

The rest of the sea folks started sizing up Sam carefully as they moved forward in a formation.

Sam aimed the harpoon gun at a person. But they didn’t panic. They are extremely positive that it wouldn’t work again.

But Sam didn’t attack. He just waited for them to come a little closer and soon he is already dodging the water spears that are being shot towards him.

After they reached a certain distance, the wind energy riled up as an air jet was shot through the water in a direction. The sea folk in that direction dodged the wind jet and the rest of the group moved towards Sam in one swift motion as they thought the harpoon was fired.

But Sam only fooled them with a normal air-jet and as the rest of them let go of their defensive stance, he fired the harpoon.

The harpoon impaled into the flesh of the sea folk, but it didn’t go through it, in fact, the rear end of the spear tip is still visible. Even though the wind force is not enough to go past that stuck up gel-like viscous flesh, it still took the body far enough as the tension in the cable grew and the trap opened, but it didn’t hold the person in place, it just removed a smaller chunk of flesh.

Sam retracted the cable and checked the tip. The trap was completely destroyed. It is not reusable.

The Sea folk are stunned once again. They fell for a single and direct bluff.

Sam used this small moment of shock to his advantage and swam upwards to dodge the attacks that are coming towards him and took out his sword.

The sword was covered with the sword aura and the water elemental energy at the same time. Just like how he used the wind blades and sword in combination, he decided to use the sword and water as a combination and it is working great.

Just like how the sea folk managed to throw the spears made of water the water blades he is using are also cutting through the water and attacked the opponents.

The Sea folk surrounded Sam completely and the two sea folks who took their first companion inside came back but this time, they came back on sea horses.

The Sea horses are faster than Sam in his water elemental fusion.

They are easily catching up. If not for the fact that every water blade coming out of Sam’s sword is lethal, they would have easily overpowered him.

Even the sea folk are gaining in on the speed aspect as the time passed through the battle.

They are moving in certain patterns that are hard to predict and there is no communication between them like voice commands or gestures which Sam could study and take advantage of.

They are moving as if they can read each other’s thoughts and it might be even true. And the worst part is they are not extremely offensive. They are not wasting too much energy on large-scale attacks.

Now Sam understood how they managed to deal with the elves and the humans that attacked them. They are trying to make him feel tired and try to let him take a breath on the surface in which the attacker has to focus more on the breath than the enemies as they would hinder him.

Then that would be the time for them to attack him and kill him in a single strike.

But Sam is not going up. He can stay with that breathing device for a whole day and a half. He could easily last longer than them in terms of energy usage. In this battle of endurance, he would be the ultimate winner.

But he is worried that more sea folks would come if he delayed too much. So, he has to finish them off faster and he proceeded to do so.

While Sam is having a relatively easier time here as he dealt with the Sea Folk. The situation on the seashore is completely different.

The beach is currently dyed in blood as the Sea folk and the soldiers are clashing aggressively. Today, the Sea folk are much more aggressive and they are not holding anything back and they also didn’t come on any other beasts.

Even the transcendent stage Sea folks are coming off and started attacking the two transcendent cultivators that are on duty.

They are clearly a dead set of killing every person and the soldiers are having a hard time adjusting to it.

The situation became perilous and they don’t know why that happened.

The commander of the unit looked at the large-scale killing and cursed under his breath before yelling the commands.

"Retreat and activate the defensive formation. Let the backup troops get ready."

He ordered as he retreated and some soldier sent some flashy fireworks into the sky.

The troops that are resting and recovering inside the base all heard the explosions from the fancy fireworks and saw the flashy lights in the sky.

They hurried out of their residences and got ready for the battle as they prepared to activate the defensive formation of the base.

The Sea Folk are still extremely adamant about not letting anyone go and followed desperately.

A couple of them even slipped into the formation, but they were killed soon anyway.

But the attacks didn’t stop. The sea folk has great coordination and combination attacks. They are attacking the formation and the people inside through long-range attacks while the soldiers desperately defended.

"Why the fuck are they so aggressive today? They are not even caring about their own casualties now. What is wrong with them?"

The commander muttered to himself as he defended the base.

Meanwhile, Sam who is responsible for this didn’t know what is happening because of him and is currently dealing moving towards the bubble full of these Egg pods.

It is about time he explored and got some answers.
