136 The Hypnotising Attack (1/2)

As soon as he did, he felt a shockwave, pass by and all the windows around him cracked.

”What... The...? What happened?” Zakaragi asked as he looked around

One by one, people started to drop to the ground, while others remained motionless as they stood up.

The guards didn't drop but they were staggering as they began walking towards the water.

[What's happening to them?] John asked

[Their minds are being manipulated. Those who were knocked unconscious were lucky, those who stayed standing, are going to drown themselves.] Zestari replied

[I know that, but why?] john asked

[Look over at the water.]

John did as she was told, and when he did, his eyes widened.

There was a horde of fallen mermaids far off shore, Ray couldn't fully count as some submerged themselves in water, while others stayed above.

”Oi... John, what's happening?” Zakaragi asked once more

”The beach was hit by a full-scale mermaid attack...”

After john said that, he quickly turned towards the umbrella where Serena and Ariel were at.

There was a dark sphere in that area, which was big enough to cover, their whole group and a few others. Seeing this, john let out a sigh of relief

”Master made it in time...” John muttered

But now was no time to relax himself, as he spoke, there were people slowly walking towards the water.

”Zakaragi... Listen carefully, go over to the dark sphere with Wilma and keep her safe. Okay?” john asked

Zakaragi who heard this nodded

”Let's go wilma” Said Zakaragi as he stretched out his hand

Wilma who saw this then jumped on to John's arm

”Hero, where are you going?” Wilma asked with a worried look

”Hm... Hero is going to save the day, which is why, hero needs you to follow big brother zakaragi okay?” Said john with a smile

”Okay...” Wilma muttered as she let go

She then walked over to zakaragi and grabbed on to his hand

[Zestari, is it safe to walk out of the field?] John asked

[Yes, it was a shockwave attack which already passed through. However, from the looks of it, they're preparing another attack.]

[I see...]

”Zakaragi, go now.” Said John as he deactivated the anti-sound field

The sound field stopped sound from coming in, so the moment, john deactivated the field, the sound of a screech could be heard coming from the ocean.

Zakaragi ignored that sound and started to run off towards the dark sphere with Wilma. Meanwhile, John was on his way to the ocean.

Once he reached the shoreline, he looked around to see how many people were hypnotised and moving towards the water.

And the amount was shocking, it was half of the people who were on the beach, and judging from what john could see, it was in the 200s

[Zestari... Do you think I could create a wall big enough over the shoreline to prevent people from passing through?] John asked

[… That is impossible.]

[…]

[For someone normal. You can try, but if you fail and end up fainting from overusing your magic power, then those who are currently swimming further into the ocean will die.]

”As long as there's a small chance...”

John looked back, at the where master and the group were, when zakaragi and Wilma reached it, the Dark Sphere opened up and gobbled them in.

”Seriously... Master is so trustworthy...” John muttered as he placed his arms on the ground

”Verum Resurgens terra...” Translation: True Earth Wall

Slowly, sand and the earth under it, started to rise around the beach.

Instead of covering the whole shoreline, John simply made half a curving wall rise around the shore line. It curved and formed Half a circle if you looked at it from above

And as it continued to rise, john felt like chunks of his body was getting dragged out of him.

”Come on... Nearly done...” John muttered as he poured every ounce of his strength into it.
