They were deep-sea fish that lived at the bottom of the sea. Lilith deduced that this was definitely the deepest part of the sea. She didn't know what method they used to bring people here and imprison them.
There was air here, and with so many people, there was no suffocation. They used magic to exchange the air with the sea water.
Lilith had never heard of their magic. What kind of species were murlocs? They lived at the bottom of the sea without fire, so how could they have a culture? More importantly, why did they attack and imprison them?
Thinking, Lilith put down the grilled fish in her hand. It was too damp to make a fire here. She could only use magic to cook the fish, but this would make the food tasteless, like chewing wax. Gilbert paced back. He looked around the entire cave and knocked on every corner, trying to find an exit.
It was futile. They were at the bottom of the sea. As long as they couldn't breathe underwater, they couldn't escape. Or if there was a spatial magician here …
Lilith sighed and took out the communication stone. It became dim. In this deep sea, it couldn't contact Reina who was far away. Their situation was very desperate. Their life and death were already in the hands of the murlocs. In the dark cave, they did not know the time. Lilith also calculated the time according to the feeding time of the murlocs and her hunger level. They would only give them food once a day, and it could not satisfy everyone.
In a few days, people were defeated by hunger and despair.
At first, there were some rumors. They thought the murlocs were going to eat them. Lilith didn't know when humans became the food of other scourges. But thinking about it, if deep-sea fish and shrimp were delicious to humans, would the creatures on land be delicious to the murlocs in the deep sea?
This could be considered a good thing. There were even more terrifying rumors that followed. Some people said that these Fishmen wanted to mate with them and produce offspring. Because of this, some bad things happened amidst the chaos. Some people committed suicide and rushed out of the cave, wanting to swim to the surface of the sea. But in less than three minutes, the person's body slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.
Gilbert and Lilith, who were still rational, used violence to stop them from doing what they wanted to do. They also controlled the people at the entrance of the cave and forced them to follow the rules they set. It was very difficult to calm them down. The two of them felt that the crowd was breaking down and was on the verge of madness. They began to swallow the live fish. Although there were fishermen who ate sashimi, they held it in their hands and gnawed on it like wild beasts. It was very scary.
Lilith couldn't stop them. The fish she cooked had no taste at all. To these crazy people, the fishy smell became a delicacy.
This incident planted a seed of fear in her heart.
Perhaps on the seventh day, she opened her eyes and suddenly realized that the cave was eerily quiet. Gilbert also realized this. For safety, the two of them stayed away from the others and rested with their backs against each other. They looked into the dark cave, trying to figure out why the crowd was so quiet.
Lilith cast magic. The flame brought a dazzling light, and the cave was illuminated again.
Under the light of the fire, there were people with ragged clothes, scales all over their bodies, and crooked teeth. Their bodies were twisted, and they were curled up in a corner. They used their hands to cover their eyes, and there were bloody scars on their necks and chins. However, there was no blood, and they were still moving.
Lilith also saw that there was a mucous membrane between their fingers. They had become monsters!
At this moment, she immediately understood why the fish became tasteless under the roasting of her magic flame. It was because the murlocs' magic was on them! The murlocs wanted to turn them into the same as them!
No!
She remembered the murlocs' appearance. Except for the lower body of a fish, the upper body of the murlocs was very similar to that of a human. They didn't have these characteristics at all. What did they do?
