Before he could exert any force, the siren collapsed.
Lu Yao was satisfied.
He couldn’t wait for every battle to be a dump truck attack. If he could just run over them, why bother with complicated tactics?
When he was a student, his maths teacher had said that simplicity was beautiful.
Although Lu Yao wasn’t good at maths, he had always remembered this and thought it Avray.
Lu Yao observed the situation.
The little people on the island had already been subdued by the Blood Knights they operated, so much so that most of them didn’t move at all, lost their fighting spirit, and completely gave up resisting.
The villains had finished playing their roles, and it was time for the heroes to make their appearance.
He calculated the distance, the blood knight this amount of blood even if all the way back from the bottom of the sea hard walk. Deducting blood every second, he could also walk for more than forty minutes, enough to return to the castle.
Speaking of which, the Apostle could walk on the seabed without eating or drinking, as if it were a humanoid submarine. Unlike a paddle sailing ship, one has to stop and stop along the way, constantly replenish supplies along the way, and also have to avoid the wind and waves, which takes up a lot of time.
In terms of sailing efficiency alone, it was not as fast as the Blood Knights walking all the way under the sea.
Just as Lu Yao was about to retreat and replace Isabel to come over to save the island and spread Yao God’s love and peace, people from the East Sea Clan stopped the Blood Knights.
At the head of the group was a woman named Hai Mira, 25 years old and the [Matriarch].
“Please wait, you are an apostle of the gods right?”
Hai Mira said, “Now that the God of Prayer has abandoned the East Sea Clan, what do you want to do with us?”
Lu Yao frowned.
This plot development was a bit off.
He hesitated for a moment and decided to withdraw.
The Blood Knight’s persona was that of a fierce outlaw corner, slashing people on sight, a murderer who wouldn’t even spare a passing rabbit.
Having the good guy, Isabelle, take over the Donghai Clan, this was the script Lu Yao had written.
“The gods you follow are so powerful, the East Sea Clan wishes to follow in your footsteps and believe in the new gods, offering our faith and loyalty, your and the gods’ will is the mission of the East Sea Clan.”
Hai Mira was very direct in her defection.
Lu Yao was shocked.
It wasn’t right, it wasn’t right.
Wasn’t it clearly the stance of a fanatic believer before?
The fierce battle at sea, where the Donghai Clan cut through the ships with no lives and used human lives to delay the Blood Knights was still fresh in their minds.
They also cried out in pain and fear over the collapse of the Prayer God’s totem.
The killing of the Siren Kraken was even harder for the little people to believe, and their faith was shattered.
Yet only a few minutes after all of this, [Matriarch] Hymira very calmly stated that the East Sea Clan was willing to serve the new gods and offer their loyalty and faith.
This back and forth shift was also too fast.
As if he also knew that he would be met with suspicion for doing so, Hemila frankly spoke about the reasons for it.
“Lord Apostle, the East Sea Clan originally lived in the forests of the land. In the previous Era, our ancestors had always been followers of the Forest God.”
“After the Forest God fell, the ancestors fled to the sea to avoid the Corruptors and Molting Monsters.”
“That’s when the God of Prayer appeared and accepted us, so we’ve always been grateful to the God of Prayer.”
“Whatever the God of Prayer needed us to do, we faithfully carried out His will.”
“The God of Prayer told us to unite with the siren Kraken and give birth to sea monsters, and the women of our clan have been doing this for generations.”
“The East Sea Clan has learnt to live on the sea over a long period of time, and has also continued to breed sea monsters for the God of Prayer, offering these sea monsters as sacrifices to the gods through their totems.”
“Because breeding was something the gods needed us to do, our clan needed more women and no men. It wasn’t until the sirens went to sleep that we started catching outside men instead ……”
Through Hai Mira’s description, Lu Yao then figured out the origin of the East Sea Clan.
The reason why they were able to breed sea monsters was because they were asked by the Praying God to mate with the Siren Kraken. The babies that were bred, the females would keep their human features and the males would turn into sea monsters, which was the source.
The sea monster is a hybrid between a human and a siren.
After generations of bloodline mingling, the East River Clan had part of the siren’s bloodline.
The branching East River Tribe became more and more difficult to give birth to sea monsters because the bloodline kept diluting.
And the path to handing the sea monsters over to the Praying God was the totem that had only just been blasted to pieces by itself.
“Once, we would have fought to the last man for the God of Prayer.”
Hemera continued, “But the gods have stopped responding to us for many years, and the great sea demon Kraken was all but abandoned by the gods, indicating that Lord Prayer God has banished the East Sea Clan.”
“As a member of the East Sea Clan, I feel great pain and loss. But as the leader here, I must shoulder the responsibility of keeping everyone alive.”
“Lord Apostle, I once again sincerely and heartily request that you accept us, the 1,678 members of the East Sea Clan I. We are willing to offer everything for you and the gods in order to gain the shelter and guidance of Lord God.”
Matriarch Hai Mira knelt on the ground with a very humble attitude.
Seeing this, the surrounding East Sea Clan members followed suit and knelt.
However, the Blood Knight’s fierce persona could not fall.
So Lu Yao operated the Blood Knight to turn around and leave.
On the other side, he took a glance. Isabelle had already turned back from the forest after receiving the order and flew all the way here on a paddle sailing boat.
Shortly after, Isabelle landed on the island and started the reception of the East Sea Clan group.
……
Matriarch Hai Mira immediately knelt down and swore, “From now on, the East Sea Clan will fight for the faith of the Yao God!”
Lu Yao saw that both the population and faith in the upper right corner of the screen had increased by more than 1,600 points.
Population: 15,073 Faith: 5,588
Conquest in the Tribal Era was still relatively open.
If you are strong, then your faith is right and we follow you.
If you abandon us, then we have no choice but to find another way to seek refuge with a new god.
Patriarch Hemila added at this time, “Lord Apostle, the God of Prayer hid a secret treasure on this island. It is a key that was originally under the totem, guarded by the Kraken, the siren.”
“Now, we are willing to go and retrieve the key and offer it to the Yao God.”
With that, she commanded a sea monster to go underwater. It didn’t take long for the sea monster to surface again and spit a golden leaf onto the ground.
Isabelle picked up this golden leaf and observed it carefully for a while.
She looked off-screen, “My lord, this is a portal key that can open a door to another dimension. It contains incredible power on it.”
Hearing this, Lu Yao hurriedly called in the Blood Knights who didn’t speak and pretended to be experts on the side to stand guard.
For safety’s sake, he also had Isabelle evacuate the surrounding East Sea Clan humans.
Only then did Lu Yao drag the mouse and click on the key. The key immediately flew to the upper left corner and turned into a golden spoon type icon.
A prompt surfaced on the screen.
[Later Enlightened One, do you wish to enter here?]
[This is the root of the Tree of Sylvanus, and has left behind my most precious legacy and regrets ……]
[If you possess enough courage and wisdom, then come and gain access to my most hidden power.]]
[Yes] [No].
Lu Yao froze.
Why was it something from the Forest God again.
Last time it was the [Golden Wilderness], can’t it be that the God of the Forest has multiple main god spaces?
Lu Yao thought about it for a while, but he clicked [Yes].
The golden leaves unfolded into a golden door of light.
Lu Yao touched the light door with the key in the upper left corner, opening a black gap.
Lu Yao then selected the Blood Knight and told him to go in and explore.
As soon as the Blood Knight entered it, the black gap disappeared without a trace and the light door closed.
Lu Yao clicked on the light door, and suddenly the screen turned.
Inside the golden leaves was a grey world that looked like a dilapidated dune, with dead trees withered and twisted everywhere, and the ground was littered with stone burial mounds without tombstones.
A line of text slowly emerged on the screen.
[Level 1 of the Black Abyss]
Suddenly, the graves on the ground trembled, and a grey humanoid monster burrowed out from within.
It displayed above its head: [Ghoul LV40].
After it, more ghouls drilled out of the ground as if they had smelled the flavour. They pounced on Blood Knight Nevid from all sides.
Lu Yao’s eyes glowed as he watched.
It turned out that this was an advanced levelling spot!
No wonder the Forest God said that this place hides His power …… Maybe, the monsters here will even burst some equipment or something.
Lu Yao felt out his mobile phone and quickly ordered a Green Pepper and Shredded Pork Covered Rice, preparing to watch the Blood Knight fight monsters for his meal.
