Horrifying!
Miracles did not always happen in life, and a savior would not always appear in times of crisis.
By the time the youths realized that this did not involve any grudges, nor was it a deliberate threat, and that the target was really just to destroy them, the battle had already unsurprisingly begun.
The cruelty of the Death Mist Zone was especially despairing at this moment.
What was the use of having a prestigious identity? Because of the mist, they could not send out any signals and wait for help. Even if they could only wait for a glimmer of hope, what about hope?
As for hope …
It was not completely hopeless! At this moment, it was all on one person, and that was Tang Ling.
At this critical moment, he stood up.
With the command staff in his hand, his voice echoed throughout the sea.
"Listen to my command."
It was just four simple words, but it immediately made the terrified and despairing youths feel a sense of relief.
The calmness did not mean that Tang Ling could save everyone. As long as the young geniuses were not so frightened that they could not think straight, they knew that they were surrounded by hundreds of Level 3 and above vicious beasts. No, most of them were Level 4 vicious beasts.
Even a high-rank Purple Moon Warrior would not be able to survive, let alone Tang Ling.
What calmed everyone down was the fact that someone stood up in such a desperate situation and shouldered the responsibility without hesitation. It proved that this person was fearless.
Since there was such a fearless person around, how could they not feel relieved?
Of course, Tang Ling did not stand up just to comfort the crowd. His command was as decisive as ever. First, he ordered most of the ships to use the firearms they had at the first sign of danger. What was the point of holding back when they were in a life and death situation?
Under the barrage of artillery fire, the ferocious Direbeast horde that surged in from all directions was slightly blocked.
Tang Ling did not waste the precious time either. He resolutely ordered most of the ships to be abandoned and all the crew members were quickly gathered on a few smaller ships.
These ships were the best in this voyage, be it in terms of defense or speed.
Twelve ships were more than enough to carry a thousand young geniuses.
"Dancing Pearls, can you help?" The young geniuses were fast. In less than a minute, they were all gathered on the twelve ships that Tang Ling had requested.
In the sea, the flames and tremors caused by the firearms had gradually subsided. Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, Tang Ling shouted at Samuel who was standing on the Whirlpool Blue Whale.
"Yes!" Cai Wuzhu answered decisively.
In fact, in that one minute, Dancing Pearl thought that everything was over. There were hundreds of marine beasts that were mainly at Level 4, and among them, there was no lack of Level 5 and even Level 6 existences. They didn't even need to attack. All they needed to do was release their innate instincts and the fleet of these young geniuses would suffer a devastating blow.
At least half of the ships would be destroyed, and more than half of the talented youths would die.
However, she did not expect Tang Ling to be so decisive. In a desperate situation like this, fear would hardly motivate a person to react, let alone a calm and correct command.
Back then, out of curiosity, he had placed his hopes and bets on Tang Ling, thinking that he could use Tang Ling to stop Wu Mingzhu.
But was it reliable? Cai Wuzhu didn't know.
Now, Tang Ling had used his strength again and again to give the Dancing Pearl an answer sheet that was more than what it needed to be.
Perhaps … there was still hope! So, why not help Tang Ling?
Right after Cai Wuzhu's words subsided, something flew over from the bow of the Harvest. It was the blade from the City of Science and Technology that Boss Huang had hidden at the bow of the ship as the Harvest's final weapon.
He originally thought that a blade charged with the Universal Energy Stone would be able to deliver an attack stronger than a Rank 3 Purple Moon Warrior, which would be enough to deal with dangerous situations.
However, even Boss Huang did not expect the situation to be this dangerous. Even if he was there himself, he might not be able to save many of the young geniuses.
Therefore, the blade's attack was no longer as powerful as before.
Tang Ling had another use for it now.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The blade spun and landed in front of Cai Wuzhu.
"Fix it under the Whirlpool Blue Whale. I want to borrow its power!" Tang Ling shouted after Cai Wuzhu picked up the blade.
A thick rope was tied to the handle of the blade. It was something that Tang Ling had collected from the other ships during the chaos. He then tied it together with Han Xing and Dongyang.
Cai Wuzhu hesitated for a moment. As a matter of fact, the Whirlpool Blue Whale beneath her was her war pet. It had grown up with her and was also her final trump card.
The Whirlpool Blue Whale was powerful. With it, they could handle most situations in the sea, but it would not be able to handle the vicious beasts that surrounded the sea.
What was Tang Ling trying to do?
The smoke on the sea had thinned a little. The first wave of vicious beasts that were stopped by the firearms had mostly recovered, and the next wave of vicious beasts would arrive at any moment.
I can't hesitate anymore!
A second later, Cai Wuzhu made up her mind. She fixed the rope that tied the blade to a bone spike on the Whirlpool Blue Whale's head.
Trust Tang Ling!
**
Just like that, the brutal battle began.
Tang Ling stood at the bow and activated his Precise Instinct to the maximum. Attack? There was no way he could attack!
In such a dire situation, other than dodging and delaying, he had no other choice.
Therefore, this was what it meant to survive in the crevice and search for hope in a hopeless situation. If he did not utilize his Precise Instinct to the maximum, what else could he do?
"Move left, 45 degrees …"
Tang Ling's voice echoed on the sea. The fleet that had shrunk back to its maximum speed and with the help of the Whirlpool Blue Whale, they moved forward in every direction that Tang Ling pointed out.
Yes, it was Tang Ling's idea. The remaining 12 ships were still tightly connected to each other, and the Whirlpool Blue Whale would drag them forward. Together with the ships' own strength, the fleet would have enough speed to dodge the beasts' attacks.
The scene of him commanding the ships to dodge the beasts replayed itself, but the difference was that they were in the vast sea, so there was a lot of space for them to dodge the beasts.
Now …? All the ships were compressed to a small part of the sea that was close to the terrifying crevice, so the space for them to move was limited.
Since they could not contact the outside world, no one knew what was the point of dodging and dodging the beasts' attacks.
However, Tang Ling did not give up. Looking at Tang Ling's figure, how could the others give up?
At that very moment, there was only one thought in everyone's mind: believe in Tang Ling. Maybe it would not be despair until the end.
The heavy pressure weighed heavily on everyone's heart.
Precise Instinct was indeed magical. It could always find a way out of despair, but it was not always there. Occasionally, the young warriors who were in charge of fighting had to work together to fight the vicious beasts. Only then could they find a way out in the limited space.
No one could imagine how terrifying it would be when a few hundred frenzied vicious beasts attacked!
Crashing, biting, and using their talent abilities, the small part of the sea had turned into a hellish battlefield in less than 10 minutes!
Broken ships, frenzied vicious beasts that did not differentiate between friend and foe, and after the frenzied vicious beasts attacked recklessly, bodies were left behind. There were also the broken bodies of the young warriors who sacrificed themselves in the battle.
Indeed, there was no way for them to leave their bodies in one piece. It was so cruel that no one could collect the bodies of their comrades!
Shouldn't they be proud of their success? They had just come out of the Nirvana Tower, received their rewards, and their future was confirmed!
Tang Ling's eyes were bloodshot. He did not think he could save every single one of them. Whether he stood up and commanded or gathered all his forces, it was all for himself and his friends that he cared about. He wanted them to have a better chance of survival.
However, for some reason, as the battle went on, each and every death weighed heavily on his heart.
It was all because he had enjoyed the cheers from the young warriors and accepted their trust in him. He had also seen how they risked their lives to survive.
However, what else could he do? It was already a miracle that they could last for almost 10 minutes, but miracles were called miracles because they did not happen often or continuously.
A total of 67 of the young warriors had sacrificed themselves, and all their hard work was a joke. They were running out of space to maneuver and dodge. They were getting close to the danger zone of the giant crevice. Once they entered it, the ship would inevitably slide into the crevice.
To make matters worse, the Vortex Blue Whale's stamina was also limited. At this time, it was obviously swimming slower than before.
What should I do? The thought lingered in Tang Ling's mind.
As a matter of fact, even with his intellect, he could not think of a better way. 10 minutes was his limit. Anyone else with the same level of combat strength could not achieve the same result.
At that moment, Cai Wuzhu, who had been standing on the Vortex Blue Whale, shouted with a sobbing tone, "Wu Xiazhu, isn't it enough?"
The Vortex Blue Whale stopped, so did the young warriors' fleet.
Who was Wu Xiazhu? Could it be that all of this was done by a person called Wu Xiazhu?
Who was that woman named Cai Wuzhu who was standing on the Vortex Blue Whale? What did she have to do with all of this?
However, Cai Wuzhu's shouts were useless. The vicious beasts continued to attack the fleet in a frenzy.
It was then that Cai Wuzhu took out a knife and pointed it at her chest. She shouted, "Wu Xiazhu, if you don't show yourself, you'll force me to my death! I swear in the name of the God of the Sea! "
Miraculously, after she said that, the vicious beasts suddenly stopped. They started to swim a little anxiously on the surface of the sea but no longer attacked the young warriors.
It was at that moment that the vicious beasts in the southeast automatically opened up a path. A Level 5 vicious beast swam towards them. As the distance closed, the young warriors clearly saw a pale young man standing on top of the Level 5 vicious beast's head.
Is this Wu Xiazhu? A vicious beast encirclement of this scale was done by a young man?
Tang Ling finally got some rest, but he dared not let his guard down. The huge sense of danger and anxiety in his heart did not go away just because of that. He took out a bottle of spirit potion and a piece of vicious beast meat and swallowed them in big mouthfuls.
He did not want to know who Wu Xiazhu was. He did not want to know the reason behind all of this. All he did was quickly think of a way out of this situation.
"Cai Wuzhu, must you stop me?" The fierce sea beast Wu Mingzhu was standing on stopped about two hundred meters away from the Vortex Blue Whale.
Both of them faced each other from a distance.
Facing this scene, Cai Wuzhu revealed a bitter smile and said, "Wu Xiazhu, when you were young, did you ever think that there would be a day when you and I would face each other with enmity?"
Wu Xiazhu chose to remain silent in the face of Cai Wuzhu's words.
"Wu Xiazhu, stop it. If my life isn't enough in your eyes, then what about the entire mermaid race? What about the entire mermaid race? If you destroy these people here today, there will be no room for reconciliation between the mermaid race and the humans! Tomorrow, we might even face the humans who will wipe us out at all costs! Do you want the mermaid race to be destroyed in your hands? "Cai Wuzhu shouted desperately.
This time, she did not have the thought of completely convincing Wu Xiazhu. As she spoke, she tightened her grip on the knife and a trace of blood seeped out from her chest.
If there was no other way, she could only use the same method as Wu Xiazhu to control the vicious sea beasts.
Perhaps she could not control them completely! After all, when Wu Xiazhu did it, he had enough time to fully control these vicious sea beasts.
However, this would at least give these youths a chance to survive and also fully express the attitude of the mermaid race.
Wu Xiazhu's expression changed. He frowned and looked at Cai Wuzhu, wanting to say something but hesitating.
At this moment, although the youths were shocked by the sudden appearance of the mermaid race, a trace of hope rose in their eyes.
If this Dark Pearl were to stop …
"Wu Xiazhu!" At this moment, Cai Wuzhu shouted again. The blade had already pierced into Wu Xiazhu's chest. Originally, there was only a trace of blood, but it was already flowing down.
"Cai Wuzhu, have you forgotten what I said? Put down your knife first, I … "At this moment, Wu Xiazhu was finally moved.
However, at this moment, the originally anxious group of vicious sea beasts suddenly moved again. Wu Xiazhu, who was standing on the head of the tall fifth-level vicious sea beast, suddenly saw a ship.
At this time, there was actually a ship here? Impossible, this was the Death Fog Zone that had a great restriction on humans.
Wu Xianzhu frowned once again. But at this moment, a voice that captivated his dreams, intoxicated him, and also broke his heart rang out.
"Wu Xiazhu, save me."
"Sma?!" Wu Xiazhu's body stiffened. With a wave of his hand, the vicious sea beasts gave way and the warship quickly moved forward.
As the warship approached, Wu Xiazhu saw the scene on the ship clearly. He gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to break and his body was trembling.
Sma! The woman he loved the most, the woman he was willing to give up his life for, was now hanging on the bow of the warship. Her face was full of Imperial Marks, her clothes were tattered and bloodstained, and one of her legs was twisted abnormally. It was obvious that she had suffered a great deal of damage.
Cai Wuzhu stood on the head of the Whirlpool Blue Whale. When he saw this scene, his heart sank to the bottom!
This woman had actually appeared in such a manner at this time. Then, what chance did she have of persuading Wu Xiazhu?
And why hadn't the elders of the Mermaid race arrived yet? The Death Fog Zone might have a great restriction on humans, but it did not affect the mermaid race! Moreover, he had used a special method to notify the mermaid race.
"Wu Xiazhu, save me!" Sma fell on the bow and continued to cry at Wu Xiazhu.
Wu Xiazhu, who was infuriated to the extreme, could no longer care about the conversation with Cai Wuzhu. He looked at Sma's pitiful face and shouted, "Let her go! Otherwise, we'll all perish together!"
Tang Ling had already swallowed the vicious beast meat and drank the spirit potion. The scene before him gave him a rough idea of what was going on.
It was not for any other reason but because the ship was from the Stardust Council!
Perhaps this was the biggest reason why he was in a dead end. A sneer flashed over Tang Ling's face. It was at that moment that Higan somehow appeared beside him and held his hand.
Compared to Tang Ling, all the young geniuses at the scene were confused. Did the mermaid race really exist? Why did they destroy everyone? Why did the Stardust Council appear again? What exactly was going on?
"Hehehe." A clear, cold laugh interrupted Wu Xiazhu's madness and everyone else's thoughts.
A high-ranking officer from the Stardust Council appeared on the deck.
"Wu Xiazhu, you want to perish together with me. Do you think you can keep me here? " As he spoke, the officer raised his hand and waved in a seemingly casual manner, but the small gesture was enough to display his strength.
Six purple spots and a blurry purple spot that had yet to take shape. The officer was at the peak of rank 6 Purple Moon Warrior!
"What do you want?" Wu Xiazhu clenched his fists.
"What do you want? This woman betrayed the Stardust Council and wanted to leave the council to elope with you. The Stardust Council has zero tolerance for betrayal, "the officer said calmly with his hands behind his back.
He then looked at Wu Xiazhu, whose arms were trembling in agitation. "Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor! It's easy to kill her, but I'm afraid you have to give us an explanation, don't you? "
The young geniuses on the ship were on the verge of breaking down. What kind of melodramatic love story was this? Why did it have to involve them?
However, at that moment, Tang Ling had a completely different thought.
He had a rough idea of what was going to happen and he knew that there was a 50% chance that the young geniuses would survive.
As for himself, he would fall into a real dead end! On top of that, a basin of dirty water would be poured on him!
