Chapter 24.2 (2/2)
Richard took a vertical leap from the back of the seahorse and landed on the raft. The relatively small raft shook violently due to the impact from his huge stature.
“Go ahead, pigman, make your magical beast pet attack me.” Richard threw away the fork-shaped bone spear that landed on the back of his companion. He rubbed his webby palms and laughed at Liu Zhenhan as if mocking him.
Other shark knights also laughed insolently.
“Clownfis.h.!.+”
“Ha ha! Go hide in a sh.e.l.l or something!”
“I think he is just a shrimp that knows how to play in shallow water.”
The scene was riddled with wild laughter, abuses, and ridicule, all aimed at Liu Zhenhan.
Hailun was also completely enraged by the mermaid princess’ phrase “You are as ignorant as your incompetent G.o.d”. She was literally fuming with anger. The flame of her anger was literally fueled by the mermaid’s princess’ overgrown arrogance.
But her anger was immediately replaced by worry when a grandiose shark night appeared in front of them. In fact, he was so big and bulky that he actually dominated a majority of s.p.a.ce on the raft by just standing there. His ferocious facial expression was fairly complimenting his domineering presence.
The horrifying legends of sea race had existed in a wide range of records on Qiu Mainland since times immemorial. 2000 years ago, an outstanding sea-mage led a team of sea people and did a detailed study on water magic. They subsequently developed supreme water spells but it took a long time for their army to learn and implement magic. After a long time of trial and error, they finally developed a method to survive on the land even after separating from seawater for long intervals. Now, the sea army was ready to invade the land.
The mere beginning of this war led to a ma.s.s-scale bloodshed, ultimately leading to the unification of humans and beastmen as well as elves and dwarves. Together, they fought and barely managed to defeat the sea army. The war finally came to an end but not before taking numerous innocent lives caused by the floods, which were actually manufactured by the sea race in order to invade Qin Mainland. Indeed, the sea race also lost a fair share of their people in the war.
The sea is vast and so is the sea kingdom with a lot of diversity and complexity, a number of biologically complex species thrive in the sea. There were wise species in the sea as well just like the wise humans of Qin Mainland.
If that sea magician had not been killed in the war by humans, then the sea race might have wiped out the entire Qin Mainland army.
Hailun clearly knew about the kind of strength these shark knights held. 2000 years ago in the war between land and sea, the warrior of Bulin clan const.i.tuted the main sea force. They had strong body, sharp teeth, and were truly hegemonic whether on ground or in water. Their powerful combat power was not something a pigman could take on. Only the most power elephant warriors or Bear warriors of Beamon Kingdom had strong physical capability to deal with magical shark knights.
Bulin shark knights did not just have tyrannical bodies, but also possessed innate water magic which was enough to instill fear in the hearts of their opponents. Personality wise, they were extremely aggressive, and once lost to a rival, one might even blow his body in a suicide attack.
It was a fact that Bulin shark warriors had left behind a deep trace behind, otherwise, they wouldn’t appear so frequently in the Beamon epics or in the human bard songs.
Hailun had no alternative but to be worried. Pigmen were not considered good at fighting, instead were famous for their intense love for food since childhood. Even though her Li Cha was a sacred sacrifice, practically speaking, he still didn’t stand a chance against a knight of Bulin clan who was not only superior in physical capabilities but also possessed magical superiority in the form of water magic. The gap between them was simply insurmountable. Of course, she knew about his newly obtained great strength but was it enough to face a magical shark knight?
Unlike other sacrifices, her Li Cha did not even have a magical pet to fight by his side. The only companion he had right now was a frost type Pichu beast that was considered an ordinary low-level magical beast. Fruit was more of an adopted son to him, not to mention his frost magic was not strong enough to be of any help.
However, Hailun did not get time to convey all these things to Liu Zhenhan because the battle between him and Knight Richard had already begun.
