Edward was much calmer when he faced the Murloc High Priest and the surrounding murlocs again.
Previously, it had been difficult to obtain the Sea Sapphire, but now that the quest had changed to clearing out the monsters, there was no need to worry so much. They could start slowly nibbling away at the edges.
Of course, due to the presence of high-level fishmen such as the Raymen Priestess, Sharkmen Warriors, Grouper Assassins, Pufferfish Self-Destructing Soldiers, and Salted Fishmen Mummies, the clearing process was dragged out to two whole days even with the support of other Players. It was only then that the Players finally defeated the personal guards of the Fishman High Priest and faced the Big Boss at the Central Zone.
The Murloc High Priest of unknown species glared at the Players surrounding him, his hand tightly gripping the fin staff, his green face solemn. "Jijijijiji (Do you dare to spare my life)!"
"What is it saying?" Eggface asked softly.
"I don't know, but looking at its determined expression, it's probably looking for a good fight," Qiao guessed.
The Murloc High Priest obviously understood Shumen, but the unique throat structure of the Murlocs prevented it from speaking human language. It pointed at Charle and yelled, "Cuckoo cuckoo (No, I didn't say that)!"
Joe, who was called out by the Merman High Priest, was overjoyed. He said to Eggface, "Look, he must be saying that I'm right!"
The other Players looked at the scene before them, all of them agreeing with Charle's reasoning, and couldn't help showing respect for the Murloc High Priest who was surrounded. Even if he was definitely going to die, his fearlessness toward death and his determination to die heroically against the enemy like a hero at the very last moment of his life left the Players in awe.
Of course, this did not change the fact that it was definitely going to die this time.
Charle pulled out his legendary weapon, the Giant's Toe. "Back off, all of you. I want to fight it one-on-one as a sign of respect!"
"Qiao, can you do it?" Eggface jeered from behind. "He's ten levels higher than you."
"A man can't say no! One-on-one combat is the romance of warriors! "
With that, Charle summoned his familiar spirit.
Instantly, Goudan and the other players booed. "What happened to the one-on-one duel?!"
"Shut up! A familiar spirit is part of a duel, don't play if you don't like it!"
Charle activated his Evil Sword skill and fused his familiar spirit into his sword, before turning to face the fishman and assuming the starting stance for Sliding Slash. As one of the few movement skills of the warrior class, the three-stage Sliding Slash was almost a standard move for warrior players before a fight.
"Chirp chirp chirp! Guji Guji! (Wait a minute, I surrender! I can bring you to the nearby Murloc settlement, please spare my life! "
The Fishman High Priest could no longer maintain his nonchalant demeanor. Instead, he raised his fin staff with both hands and made a gesture of surrender.
Be that as it may, the Players present had slain many murlocs, but none of them had fought one before. That was why the Murloc High Priest looked as if he was facing a great foe, raising his weapon as if ready to attack at any moment.
"Could it be that he's still saying that he won't surrender even if he burns his life to launch a final attack?!" Feeling his blood boiling, Charle gave up on the fancy Sliding Slash in favor of the more ferocious and direct Collapsing Mountain. "I, Joe Paul, acknowledge you as the bravest of the Murlocs. Let us duel fair and square!"
The air between the two tensed at once, just as the Murloc High Priest's small back looked immeasurably desolate.
Clap, clap, clap …
Goudan began to clap, and the other Players were soon infected by the bleak atmosphere, applauding the last murloc on the island who was so staunch.
Hence, the Murloc High Priest that had won the respect of every Player shrieked at Charle as if it was absolutely irreconcilable. "Chirp chirp chirp! Chirp chirp chirp! (Holy shit! Ni * * *!) "
"Come to think of it, I remember Croakatoa mentioning that he knows a little Murloc." Edward, who had been watching from the start felt that something was off, clapped his hands together and told Eleena.
"Oh." Eleena, who had been munching on a lollipop, made a 'seems like it' expression and whipped out her red-and-white Follower Ball to summon Croakatoa, asking, "Croakatoa, what's that murloc saying?"
Croakatoa listened for a while, before turning to Edward with a troubled look.
"It's fine, just say it."
Edward encouraged.
The other Players had noticed the situation and gathered around in interest, perking their ears to listen to what the valiant Murloc High Priest was saying.
"Uh …" Croakatoa tried his best to use the Murloc Common he understood to speak tactfully. "That murloc … is using a rather crude tone to say that he wants to have an unpleasant relationship with Mister Paul's maternal relatives who are twice his age."
Aside from Eleena, none of the Players present were good people and instantly understood.
Hence, the Players all had indescribable looks on their faces.
Joe, on the other hand, was pointing at the Murloc High Priest with a look of uncontrollable rage. "And here I thought you were a respectable opponent … I didn't expect you to spout such vulgar language. I shall uphold justice for the God of Games and kill you today!"
The Murloc High Priest had a look of immeasurable rage on its face. It didn't even cast a sacred spell, and simply grabbed its staff and charged at Joe as if there was nothing left to live for, as if it didn't care about anything other than smashing Joe's head to vent its anger.
Even with the buff of Giant's Toe, Joe couldn't win against the Murloc High Priest, who was ten levels higher than him and was a Boss template.
Still, even with Joe's death, the evil murlocs were ultimately vanquished by the righteous Players. Still, for some reason, the Murloc High Priest appeared satisfied after killing Joe, and was killed by the Players without putting up much of a fight … it was fortunate that it didn't see Joe being revived with full HP after consuming a Superior Resurrection Spell, or it would have died with regrets.
After killing the Murloc High Priest, Edward waited for a moment, but couldn't help frowning in confusion when he didn't get a System notification that the event was over.
Wasn't the Murloc High Priest the last murloc on fishmen island? Why wasn't the fight over?
