Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 101 Persuading to Leave
After all the players left, only Weiwei and Wang Yue were able to stand up in the mermaid palace. The other female mermaids were seriously injured due to the sudden shock.

"Backlash, I can only say it's backlash."

Wang Yue had already seen that the huge shock just now interrupted the skill of maintaining the bubble, causing the female mermaid to suffer energy backlash and making it impossible for the mermaid queen's wound to heal.

He looked at Vivi standing beside him. If the queen died tonight, Vivi would be the mermaid with the highest status.

"The barrier protecting the palace can only last for one night. Tomorrow is when we will have our final battle with the demons."

Weiwei also stared at Wang Yue. Now was the time when the mermaid was at its weakest, so she had to remain vigilant enough.

Although the person in front of her was also an adventurer, Weiwei could vaguely smell the aura of the little devil on Wang Yue.

"If necessary, please ask the Trialist to take our cubs away. They are our last hope."

But it’s not the right time yet, the task will not be triggered until tomorrow.

After saying a few words to Wang Yue, Weiwei shut up again and stared at Wang Yue, meaning to let him leave on his own.

"None of this matters. Just wait for me here."

Wang Yue thought to herself, this little NPC wants to drive me away, but I will come back to find you after I finish my job.

Now that all the players have left, he also has to complete the task of [Training New Soldiers].

"If I stand by and watch, the final outcome will definitely be the destruction of the palace, and the players will flee with their cubs."

"But the demons will destroy the game map environment. If they succeed, how can I, as the creator, put my face aside?"

While Wang Yue was thinking about countermeasures, he single-handedly defeated the level 9 [Mermaid Recruit].

He only needed to use two swords each time to allow a recruit to activate his amulet, and soon reached the training target.

"At least the Mermaid Queen is still alive. If I can find a way to treat her injuries, maybe things will turn around."

When Wang Yue returned to the palace, he saw Weiwei carrying the injured female mermaids out of the palace one by one and placing them on the road in front of the palace.

Seeing Wang Yue coming back, Weiwei first put down the female mermaid she was carrying. She blocked the gate to the palace, and her beautiful face was full of dissatisfaction.

"I'm here to collect the mission reward. Don't forget to give me a talisman."

Weiwei threw the amulet to Wang Yue without saying a word, then continued to stare at him with her hands folded, without saying a word.

"I have a way to clear out all the demons here, but since you don't have a teleportation array here, it's too troublesome for me to find this place."

"Thank you, Trialist. This may be the fate of the mermaids, but we will fight against fate until the last moment."

Wang Yue raised his eyebrows. This conversation was too official and it showed that the other party was rejecting his kindness.

"What if I can keep your queen alive? It would only take one night."

"Just one night?"

Weiwei began to avoid Wang Yue's gaze, but after thinking about it, she met Wang Yue's gaze again.

"And you have an obligation to help the trialists, don't you?"

Seeing that the other party was wavering, Wang Yue stepped up her firepower and used the rhetoric of moral kidnapping, and her persuasion with the responsibility of the mermaids obviously had an effect.

Weiwei put down her guarded hands and signaled Wang Yue to continue with her eyes.

"I don't know if this method is feasible, that is, you let this giant swim to my castle and make sure it doesn't run aground."

"Rus, the guardian of the mermaids, is in great pain. It cannot swim too far, let alone seek help from the human kingdom."

"You misunderstood. My castle is in the direction where the sun sets. It didn't take me too long to walk here. If it were you, you would be there in a short swim."

The so-called "not too long" is a common expression used by "doves" to fool others.

The mermaids living under the sea are still too naive. Weiwei easily believed that Wang Yue’s castle was not far from here, and she was willing to help with such a small favor.

"Okay then, I'll try to communicate with Ruth. If it doesn't respond to my request, there's nothing I can do."

Weiwei made way for the entrance and returned to the queen with Wang Yue.

Because she lost the help of energy, blue blood continued to flow out of the mermaid queen's wounds, and the blood had now dyed her entire body blue.

Her brows were furrowed, and even though she fell into a coma, the pain did not subside at all.

"Please keep quiet."

Weiwei slowly bent down and finally lay on the queen. The two women's bodies were pressed tightly together. Weiwei leaned against the queen's chest, listened to something with her ears tilted, and then opened her mouth to send out notes.

The two's tails were entangled together, and blue smoke could be vaguely seen coming out from Weiwei.

The close contact lasted for a while, and Weiwei was already looking a little tired.

She pushed her body upwards with her hands and used the buoyancy of the water to leave the queen, but her body was also covered with blue blood.

"Ruth has started his journey westward."

Wang Yue nodded, he took out the [Evil Spirit Map], and moved his fingers on the map to change the display content from the current map to the large map.

The map shows a whale and land representing Trial Island. The whale is moving away from the land at a speed visible to the naked eye on the large map.

"While Russ is drifting, the trial-taker can go to the back of the palace to select warriors and let them cover you to break out of the encirclement."

"No need, I have my own way back."

Wang Yue's doubts grew even more serious. Weiwei always wanted to drive him away, and move all the mermaids out of the palace, as if she was going to do something shameful.

"Why don't you go outside and see what's going on with the demons? There's no point in wasting time standing here."

“When I stand next to a beautiful mermaid, I feel that time passes very quickly.”

Weiwei clenched her fists. She didn't expect the trial-taker to be so shameless. She couldn't throw Wang Yue out in a rough way, so she could only endure it.

"Okay, no more jokes. I'm going to go back first. By the time I find help, the whale will probably have swum under the castle."

Wang Yue took out the [Teleportation Pocket Watch], but before pressing the button, he had one last word to say to Weiwei.

"Your AI may not understand what I said, so just treat me as a psychopath."

Wang Yue looked at the blood-stained Weiwei from head to toe and continued.

"You are an NPC. There are some things you have done that cannot be undone. Unlike players, you can be resurrected after death and you can repeat failed tasks indefinitely."

Thinking of this, Wang Yue took out the bone fragment of the Snowman King from the package.

"Whatever your purpose is, I'll still help you. Its attack power is very high, but its health is low, so you have to protect it well."

The magic of summoning the undead took effect, and a huge skeleton snowman appeared beside Vivi. The summoned creature obeyed the command and would protect her safety.

"Teleport, start."

After pressing the button, Wang Yue completely disappeared from the mermaid palace.
