Chapter 158

No one slept well, but the teachers seemed to be in much better condition than the students. They were much more capable than the students, and their mental state was still okay even if they didn’t sleep for a whole night.

However, although his mental state was okay, his complexion did not look very good.

When Baiyin woke up, he saw the gloomy faces of Song Jianye and others. Well, he knew without asking that the situation outside was not very satisfactory.

They had to stay in the Mermaid Queen's sea area for a while longer. If they wanted to go out, they had to wait until the humans outside regained control of the sea area.

Now coastal cities including Haibin have been attacked by a large number of ferocious beasts. People from outside have entered the sea area to investigate and found that the situation is very bad. A rough estimate is that there are probably hundreds of thousands of foreign ferocious beasts in the sea area.

Part of the ocean front was breached by the beasts and rushed to the city's periphery, causing damage of varying degrees and causing certain casualties. Fortunately, the breach was quickly filled, and the beasts that entered the city's periphery and posed a threat to humans were killed or wounded with the help of other cities.

However, as they are responsible for protecting the cities inhabited by humans and more compatriots, they currently have no way to allocate manpower and material resources to support the teachers and students trapped in the secret realm.

Knowing that they are safe now, the higher-ups hope that they can hold on for a while longer and they will definitely take them home as soon as possible.

In a sense, they were "abandoned". Song Jianye and others looked unhappy, but no one complained or resented the decision because they knew that if they were the ones who gave the order, they would have made the same choice.

On one side is a city with millions of ordinary people living there, and on the other side are hundreds of beastmasters who have the ability to protect themselves and are not in danger of their lives. Everyone has to make this choice.

The decision of internal and external cooperation was put aside, and they had to help the queen regain control of the territory.

Fortunately, after breakfast, they got some good news from the Mermaid Queen.

The vortex that suddenly appeared at the entrance of the secret realm was not permanent. The energy fluctuations of the vortex were very unstable, and the barrier formed by the secret realm was not enough to allow a ninth-level ferocious beast to open two passages in the same place.

Once this happens, the secret realm is likely to face extremely terrible consequences, such as collapse.

This consequence was enough to completely infuriate the mermaid queen, causing her and them to perish together.

Within half a month, the vortex will disappear.

The mermaid queen planned to fight on two fronts. The big crab was assigned to the vortex, while their teachers and students were assigned to the border between the mermaid sea and the shark sea.

They were not separated, it was a request of humanity.

The mermaid queen readily agreed to the humans' request, saying again that she didn't want to kill these humans, so there was no need to force them to death.

This can be considered good news. Another good news is that the eighth-level sea tiger shark that led the sneak attack on them was completely left near the vortex yesterday.

Knowing that the evil tiger shark was dead, all the injured and the innocent students cheered. They were not stupid, and they did not have the stupid idea that it was a bargain if it did not die in their hands. It was enough for it to die, and it would not be enough to appease the public anger.

No matter who killed him. The big crab was in charge of the vortex, and the mermaid prince Nahum, who had met him a few times, was the deputy commander on the border. The commander was the second general, the eighth-level white silver pig, who had never met him.

Some people will be left behind to take care of and guard the injured and unable to fight, and 845 people will go to the border to participate in the battle together with more than other warriors from the Mermaid Palace.

There are more than 6,000 people in total. It is simply unrealistic to ask them to swim or run to the border to join the war. By then, it will be too late.

More than 800 people and 5,000 soldiers were thrown into a different space, which was more advanced than the dead space where Baiyin and his team placed their resources. With 40,000 people living in it, pets and fierce beasts below level 7 would not have any problems fighting.

The time inside the space is synchronized with the time outside the space. Baiyin felt that they were released after staying in it for half a day. This was not because the Tikong Silver Pig was fast, nor was it close to the Mermaid Palace. Instead, the Tikong Silver Pig was a space-attributed beast. It had a skill that made Baiyin drool - space travel.

As soon as they landed, Baiyin and his companions were not far from the battlefield. The ferocious beasts were not as prudent as humans who had to find a place to camp before fighting. They just rushed up to fight, and if they couldn't win, they ran away. If they couldn't run away, they bit. If they couldn't kill them with their bites, they would just reincarnate. There was no hope for them.

So, before Baiyin and his group were ready, they saw the five thousand soldiers rushing into the meat grinder without looking back.

As we all know, the size of the ocean and the richness of its resources are far beyond the reach of land.

Most sea beasts are large in size, and it is not uncommon to see sea beasts that are hundreds of stories tall. This is just the size. In the deep sea, without vision, the appearance of some sea beasts is hard to describe. Mermaids live in shallow and middle sea areas. For example, the Jiuzhang, which is still alive in the mouths of mermaids and crabs, is a deep-sea beast, and its appearance cannot be described as ferocious.

That's not quite the right word. What I want to say is that there are tens of thousands of sea beasts on both sides. Although mermaids look good, the warriors under their command are not that good-looking.

Baiyin and his friends couldn't tell who was the enemy and who was a teammate just by looking at their appearance.

Even the experienced teachers probably didn't expect that the first challenge they encountered when participating in the sea beast war was how to distinguish between teammates and enemies.

Faced with this century-old problem, not being able to kill the enemy is not the most troublesome thing. The trouble is what to do if you injure your teammates?
When I thought about how my group of people had diligently fought the beast for a long time, only to find out that it was my teammate after the fight, that scene was awkward and a little weird, funny and a little silly.

After a lot of chaos, Baiyin and the others finally found a suitable way to join the battle. They circled a corner of the battlefield, and Baiyin placed Muchu in front of everyone to prevent the beasts from jumping out of the sand and mud from harming their companions behind them. The students took Muchu as the core, and the pets surrounded Muchu, extending into the battlefield in a fan shape.

The ferocious beasts in the mermaid territory consciously kept a certain distance from them. The distance was not too big, so it would be impossible for the enemy to break through the front line, but it could also separate the unfamiliar people on both sides.

At this time, whoever approaches humans is the enemy.

Simple and crude, but effective.

As for the teachers, they were all very powerful, and they took their pets deep into the enemy's territory, launching large-scale indiscriminate attacks. They were all enemies, so there was no need to worry about who was the opponent and who was the teammate.

Baiyin's main task for Mu Chu is to protect the people behind him. The others are not stupid either. Basically, every student has a pet that is most capable of protecting their safety.

As for Lei Ting, he had been released by Bai Yin to go out and have fun.
