A group of the Pearl Institute’s students, dressed in black outfits, was standing

close to the dam.

Each of them held a lantern decorated with a white flower. The warm light was

shining on the petals, making them transparent.

The reflection of the lanterns on the surface of the sea resembled blossoming

lotuses as they were dropped onto the waters

The strong waves easily swallowed some of the lanterns and their lights, but

many of them drifted into the distance like little rafts, disappearing into the

mist.

“Senior, Ill give you one!” Zhang Zhuo held out a lanter?n to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan shook his head and turned down the offer. He did not want to

remember someone like this.

“Look, the sea monster’s dead bodies have sunk to the bottom of the sea. Our

lanterns should be able to reach that island!” a female student exclaimed

happily.

Not long ago, the surface of the sea was covered by the dead bodies of

countless sea monsters. They were all facing the sky with wide eyes, like they

were complaining to the Heavens indignantly.

However, as the lanterns drifted into the distance, the dead bodies sank to the

bottom of the sea. They would soon decompose into nutrients for the

microorganisms along the seabed.

“It seems like even the Heavens are hoping we can guide senior’s soul back,”

Zhang Zhuo said with a wry smile. He then turned to Mo Fan.

However, Mo Fan had already left. Zhang Zhuo quickly went after him, but he

only saw Mo Fan vanishing with a few silver flickers of light.

“He must be depressed too, but it was senior sister’s decision..” Zhang Zhuo

mumbled to himself.

A lantern hung with a white flower drifted aimlessly on the sea.

The sea was perfectly calm, like a lake on the mountains that was reflecting the

blue sky and the white clouds.

If the lantern had not ended up here, it was impossible to tell which side was

the sea and the sky.

The lantern suddenly touched the back of someone’s hand.

The person was sitting on the water, but her legs were soaking. It looked like

she was sitting on a mirror of ice.

Her hands were extremely pale and still. She turned around slowly after the

lantern reached her, and stared at the floating light for a long time.

She picked up the lantern and put it on her palm, then opened the cover and

blew out the candle inside it. She then opened the white letter inside it.

The letter was rolled up. She slowly opened it and read the words, “Let the soul

return.”

“It seems like everyone is praying for my return.

“I shall grant them their wish.”

The woman started laughing. Her hollow voice echoed across the calm sea

eerily.

She slowly rose from the sea. However, her lower body no longer had human

legs. An elegant dress made up of colorful corals was covering a long lower

body that resembled a fish.

Her long hair drifted in the wind. The calm sea suddenly became restless as

dark figures approached the surface. They were ghastly and hideous. They were

either covered in bloody spikes and had fangs like sharks, or their flesh was

rotten and covered in pus, with swollen poisonous glands and venomous tails

or stings.

The sea was quiet and still just a moment ago, but now a huge number of

demon creatures had gathered around the woman at their center!

A few workers were preparing the battlefields on the other side of the dam.

The first was the Wasteland Battlefield, which was stacked up with waste steel,

concrete, junked vehicles, aluminum alloy scrap, and other things. It was one

of the main battlefields, where the humans had once fought the Sea Skeleton

King.

Further to the south was another artificial land with an abandoned city, which

several expert Earth Mages had constructed using an Earth Pistil. It was a copy

of Japan’s East Maritime Fortress.

There were a great number of tall brown buildings without windows and doors,

looking like a half-completed residential project. The people could easily see

the gray sky on the other side between the buildings.

Councilman Zhuang was in charge of the project, so the people had named it

Zhuang City. It was less than four kilometers from the Pearl Institute. The

members of the Magic Association could watch the place clearly from the

Dongfang Oriental Tower.

That evening, Zhuang City was suddenly surrounded by dark red seawater. The

sturdy buildings that were designed to withstand the attacks of

Commander-level creatures all collapsed and sank into the water.

The Mages guarding the city all died before night had even arrived. Their

miserable cries reached the Magic City.

The Councilmen and generals on the Dongfang Oriental Tower were shocked.

They had no idea what had just happened. The sturdy maritime fortress had

been taken out in such a short amount of time!

Most importantly, the fallen fortress had exposed the dam, the last line of

defense for the Magic City!

“Did anyone find out which horde of the sea monsters was responsible for the

attack?

“It might be a new species. We have no information on them.”

“Damn it, none of them managed to take a close look at the enemy? How

useless!”

“Didn’t they say we would have a long time of peace after our recent victory?

Why are the sea monsters attacking so soon:? Was there a higher-level

existence, in addition to the powerful creature we took out?”

The trench demons were a kind of intelligent sea monster, and had the power

to control many hordes of the sea monsters. They proclaimed themselves as

prophets of the sea monsters. Even the imperious Rulers leading the sea

monsters had to obey their orders!

However, hadn’t they already killed the prophet?

It should have died with the Rulers and the rest of the sea monsters a week

ago, after the Disaster-bringer ended her own life. How did the tribe of the Sea

Gods recover so quickly?

“Was the information the Shoreline Alliance gave us inaccurate? They didn’t

even realize there’s another high-level Sea God!” Zhuang Yue snarled.

The Shoreline Alliance referred to the intelligent sea monsters who could

command the sea monsters to attack their city recklessly as members of the

Tribe of Sea Gods.

The Trench Demoms that served as the prophets of the sea monsters were one

of the Tribes.

The sea monsters did indeed have their own civilization
