Chapter 79 The Murloc Prophet's Ambition (Please continue reading)

The fish has two huge eyes protruding from its head, but they are large but lifeless. If you look closely, you can see that the whites of their eyes are extremely cloudy and their eyesight is poor.

These murlocs are warriors of the blind murloc tribe, a vassal race of the night elves.

"Lord Blaka, what should we do now? The night elves have been driven back by the human wizards and returned to the Underdark," asked a green-scaled merman wielding two swords.

The person he was asking, Braca, was a strong merman warrior who was over two meters tall, wielding a huge, shiny steel fork, and whose body was covered with dozens of scars!

Braca was seen casting some kind of healing spell on himself.

Instantly, dozens of tiny, snake-like streams of water swirled around him. These clear streams, rich in special energy, slowly nourished and merged into Braca's wounds.

In the blink of an eye, the wounds on Blake stopped bleeding and began to heal gradually.

This is the unique talent ability of intermediate and higher-level murloc warriors—Secondary Healing Technique.

At this moment, Braca finally spoke up and replied, "Slaraka, we blind fishmen can only rely on ourselves. Look at these crisscrossing underground rivers, they are perfect for us to hide in."

I believe that it won't be long before the Night Elves return in force. That will be our best chance to return to the Darkwaters.

However, we still need to find a way to reunite with the Prophet as soon as possible. I can sense that the Prophet should be nearby.

Now, once the sentries are in place, the rest of you should rest and recover from your injuries. In a little while, we will set off to find the Prophet.

"Yes, sir!" Slarka and the surrounding merman warriors felt that Lord Blarka's words made a lot of sense, and their confidence was immediately boosted!

One of the thin merman warriors, though shouting loudly, was filled with unease.

Its name is Dick, a blind merman warrior who has just come of age. He is skilled at throwing spears and nets, and he recalls how high their morale was when they first set out from the Dark Waters.

Led by their chieftain Gakira, they followed the night elves and broke through the seal of the human wizards, rushing from the Underdark into the surface.

Just when everyone thought that humans were so weak and vulnerable, they didn't expect that what followed would be a head-on attack from human wizards!

Chief Gakira, who was over three meters tall and the strongest warrior among the blind fishmen, was instantly smashed into a pulp by a giant bone dragon that fell from the sky.

This terrifying bone dragon was merely a summoned creature of a human wizard.

This scene is absolutely terrifying!

Immediately, the entire tribe of merfolk warriors began to flee in panic, scattering in all directions.

Ah! The dark waters may be barren, but at least they're safe.

I really want to go home.

Not far from the previous underground cave, on a shallow beach of an underground river.

Another group of merfolk, not far off, were working hard to build a small altar in a secluded rock crevice.

Judging from their appearance, this group of fishmen seems to belong to the same blind fishman tribe as the previous group, but their numbers are significantly larger.

Moreover, the elderly fishman leading the group was clearly more evolved.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that, apart from the head and dorsal fin, the webbing on the hands and feet of the elderly fish-man has degenerated, and is not much different from the hands of an ordinary human.

Its scales are also finer and denser; without careful observation, it is almost impossible to tell that they are fish scales, and one might mistake them for some kind of rough skin.

The elderly merman wore a tattered robe, held a long fishbone staff in one hand, and carried a fresh human head in the other.

Blood was still dripping from the head and neck.

A merman warrior glanced at the human head in the old merman's hand and exclaimed, "Prophet, it's fortunate we met you, otherwise we would have been doomed! I didn't expect humans to be so strong! But, Prophet, you are still the strongest."

"Hmph! Stop flattering me. The one who died by my hand wasn't a formal wizard among humans. According to them, he was merely a third-level wizard apprentice."

"By the way, have you found Bulaka and Muyad?" the old fishman asked.

"My Lord Prophet, the underground rivers are complex and intricate. Although we merfolk can easily search by swimming around along them, it may still take some time before we find those two lords," the merfolk warrior replied meekly.

"Speed ​​up! Once our tribe's warriors have gathered, we'll hunt down these human wizard apprentices who have followed us. Once we've collected enough flesh and blood, we can use it as a sacrifice to summon the ancient dark murlocs!"

"Hehe, if I succeed, I won't be afraid even if I encounter a formal wizard among humans!" The merman prophet smirked and laughed sinisterly.

In the center of the Ignis School Square.

Just as the apprentices of the three necromancer schools were chatting casually, suddenly, seven or eight black-robed wizards appeared on the platform in the middle of the arena.

By looking at the different patterns on their chests, it's easy to tell that these seven or eight black-robed wizards all come from the three major necromancer academies.

Immediately, the conversations in the venue, which had been filled with thousands of people, fell silent.

After a while, a slightly older-looking black-robed wizard stepped out from among the seven or eight black-robed wizards and casually cast an amplification spell, saying, "First of all, welcome to the wizard apprentices of Gurus Academy and North Ring to the Ignis School to participate in this cleanup mission."

This cleanup mission was jointly planned and assigned by the three major necromancer academies.

The mission involves clearing the remaining subterranean creatures from the muddy swamps and surrounding areas over the next two weeks.

The reward points for defeating underground races vary depending on their strength; please check the recently distributed Mark Crystals for details.

Oh, and remember to collect as many raw materials as possible, such as the vertebrae of the Iron-skinned Lizard, the eyeballs of the Evil-finned Fishman, and the eyes of the Petrified Lizard. These can all be used to exchange for points.

The reward points will vary depending on the raw materials used; please refer to the Mark Crystal for details.

Points can be used to redeem various rewards, as detailed in the section on Imprint Crystals.

As they were talking, another black-robed wizard began chanting incantations and performing some kind of witchcraft.

The next second, a massive sorcery covering the entire area was unleashed.

Every apprentice present felt a chill on their forehead, as if they had been injected with some kind of message.

Richard used his mental power to look at it and found that it was a map, which simply marked the approximate areas where the underground races might exist.

The entire area was divided into three main sections, each corresponding to one of the three colleges.

Each area was further divided into dozens of smaller sections, which Richard guessed represented the areas that small teams would search.

At this moment, the black-robed wizard said again: "All wizard apprentices participating in the extermination mission, among whom level three wizard apprentices will be in single-player mode."

Second-level wizard apprentices are mixed with first-level wizard apprentices to form teams.

However, the number of people in a team shall not exceed five, and the number of second-level wizard apprentices in a team shall not exceed two.

The next step is free team formation time. The clearing mission will officially begin in two hours!
