Chapter 290 - 290: Pursuit! Killing the Sea Heir Leader, the Black Orb
In the spiritual realm, the Sea Heir leader, who was currently engaged in a mental battle with Alice, was driving all of its psychic power to resist the overwhelming onslaught, shouting wildly in its mind.
How could this Siren mature so quickly?
At this moment, he pondered the idea of withdrawing.
Before it started attacking this human territory, it was quite confident.
After two months of targeted evolution and breeding, the Sea Heirs had made a qualitative leap in their strength, with tens of thousands of third and even fourth-tier Sea Heirs more than enough to break through a territory with only a few hundred third-tier units.
Plus, with itself personally overseeing and commanding from nearby, it didn’t see any reason to lose.
However, the current strength of this territory surprised it.
Not only did it command thousands of fourth-tier troops, but its defensive capabilities were also remarkable, and it boasted dozens of heroes. The Sirens it had encountered earlier had reached maturity and could rival its strength.
Damn it!
How could this territory’s development be faster than their Sea Heirs’ development and evolution?
Especially among those sea tribe units, it detected a subtle essence that resembled their own.
But how could these sea tribes be related to their Sea Heirs?
Could this be a joke from the “Master”?
Aren’t they supposed to be the “Master’s” only favorites?
It thought bitterly.
It looked at the waves of mental attacks coming from the Sirens and gradually sensed that something was amiss.
Despite the seemingly powerful and surging impact, the actual intensity was not exaggerated. Both sides maintained a controlled balance, and it appeared as though the Siren was attempting to seize control, but in truth, it was more like she was stalling for time.
Delaying time?
Suddenly, within the ocean trench, the Sea Heir leader experienced a sudden tremor, pushing out the remainder of its psychic power and extending it to the vicinity.
To its horror, it sensed hundreds of fourth-tier Naga, led by a powerful hero, slowly approaching the trench it was in.
Damn it! How did that human know its location?
After only a moment of hesitation, the tendrils of the Sea Heir leader’s body began to sway, urging thousands of elite fourth-tier Sea Heirs guarding it to go forward and confront the enemy. It itself slowly moved its massive body.
In proportion to its powerful mental control abilities was its extremely weak physique. Its safety was entirely entrusted to other Sea Heirs.
In the sea, Anina was intensely searching for the trench where the Sea Heir leader was hiding, looking at the complex terrain of the deep sea floor. Her eyes were almost hurting.
According to the information received, the approximate location of the Sea Heir leader was nearby, but there were dozens of trenches in the vicinity, making it an exceptionally challenging task to locate it.
Suddenly, at this moment, she saw a large group of Sea Heirs rushing out from a seemingly inconspicuous trench, which immediately caught her attention.
In the middle of the ocean, Anina had shed the human armor she used on land, leaving only a lightweight, finely-scaled armor. Her strong yet slender legs effortlessly propelled her forward with a single kick, sending her body flying.
As the Sea Heirs drew closer, she held her Dragon Slayer Great Sword high in her right hand.
Swish!
She passed by one of the Sea Heirs without any hesitation, continuing forward. The Sea Heir behind her abruptly stopped, and a line quietly appeared on its body. Then, its body split from top to bottom, spewing green blood.
A level-thirty-something purple-rare-tier hero, a formidable Dragon Whale from the Dragonblood clan, had more than enough power to crush these Sea Heirs.
Behind her, hundreds of Naga Berserkers followed her like soldiers following a general, bravely charging into the enemy ranks, zealously killing enemies to gain merits.
Their momentum was unstoppable.
However, in the face of such a fierce onslaught, these Sea Heirs displayed remarkable resilience, fighting to the death and holding them back outside the trench.
Seeing this scene, Anina became even more certain that the Sea Heir leader was inside this trench. She no longer held back and went all out.
The icy seawater enveloped her body, but it couldn’t cool her increasingly fiery heart. Every vein in her body was coursing with scorching blood, from top to bottom, from inside to outside, permeating her entire being.
Drawing the sword, she swiftly wielded it.
Several Sea Heirs had their bodies severed and fell into the deep sea.
The Dragon Slayer Great Sword, now fully repaired, displayed astonishing power. Not a single Sea Heir could withstand its edge. With a light sweep, they were decapitated.
The saying “taking down a whole nest” rang true as, under Anina’s extraordinary leadership, the Naga Berserkers unleashed 120% of their combat strength, and with every swing of their blades, they slew countless enemies.
Gradually, the Sea Heirs were struggling to hold their ground, and their defense line began to crack.
When Anina tore apart a Sea Heir with a sideways swing and saw that there were no other Sea Heirs blocking her path, she decisively issued a command.
“You all keep these Sea Heirs occupied, I’ll take care of their leader!”
Hearing this, the Naga Berserkers went even more berserk, willing to hold the Sea Heirs back no matter the cost.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Anina’s figure suddenly moved and quickly plunged into the trench.
Soon, after searching the trench for a while, she found a slow-moving mass of flesh on a gentle slope a few kilometers from the trench’s end.
It was the Sea Heir leader!!!
Seeing that familiar form, memories deep within her heart were stirred.
She would never forget.
On a day more than a decade ago, her mother had screamed in agony amidst the siege of countless Sea Heirs, while she could only watch as her mother’s voice grew weaker and weaker until she managed to escape..
