All of them were silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the wars they thought they knew, the current scene didn’t resemble a war at all; it was more like a gruesome feast exclusively for the Ocean Hunters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-dyed seawater was like a layer of mist. The Ocean Hunters, their eyes glinting crimson, moved like phantoms within this mist, appearing and disappearing without a trace, exceptionally bizarre.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crunch! An Ocean Hunter burst forth from the bloody water, its great maw gaping, and bit down ferociously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Sea Race warrior, distinguished by two whiskers beside its gills, was struck in the neck. The hands with which it wielded its harpoon froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gurgling sound arose—the sound of fresh blood gushing from its body, merging into the seawater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sea Race warrior’s life rapidly faded amidst this tearing and biting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar scenes played out one after another, a spectacle so filled with death it was horrifyingly suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the very center of the battlefield, the seawater seemed to be boiling. Ocean Hunters congregated, forming massive schools, so dense they were impossible to count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They moved like a unified army, their attacks ferocious, tearing apart any enemy caught within their schools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are these monsters?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, what kind of sea beasts are these?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These are devils!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Help me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wretched, miserable wails echoed throughout Mist Bay. The feeding Ocean Hunters had descended into a complete frenzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aboard the Sea-Devouring Warship, Lysinthia’s expression was icy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gazed at the Ocean Hunters, a flicker of uncertainty in her heart. If she were to issue the command to cease the attack at this moment, would the Ocean Hunters, in their current state, obediently listen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the brief moment Lysinthia was lost in thought, the gruesome slaughter continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ocean Hunters were tearing at their enemies, rending their flesh with sharp fangs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood sprayed out, splattering in all directions, dyeing the nearby sea region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flesh and blood flew everywhere—what a terrifyingly gruesome picture it was!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All hail the great Orion!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tidecrab Shield Warrior Clawpincher raised his giant, shield-like pincer, cheering for the scene before him, thankful that the Stoneheart Horde possessed such a terrifying army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Slagor and Drakthul were continuously swallowing, their throats seemingly trembling from the bloody spectacle, their speech faltering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All hail the great Orion!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Praise the Stoneheart Horde!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This sea region will definitely be ours!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lysinthia snapped back to reality, her eyes incredibly bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lysinthia raised the longsword in her hand.

The casualty figures for the Ocean Hunters seemed a bit high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The invading Sea Race army this time had numbered less than ten thousand, led by a few Alpha-level Merfolk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An eight-to-one loss ratio made Lysinthia soberly realize that the Ocean Hunters were not invincible; they possessed significant drawbacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When their numbers were large, the Ocean Hunters’ combat power was immense, their battle scenes were exceptionally bloody, and they could even intimidate their foes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Ocean Hunters were also fragile; they could be killed easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, after sustaining losses, the Ocean Hunters required rapid replenishment and a period of nurturing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the number of Ocean Hunters was insufficient, any losses would prevent them from bringing their full combat power and deterrent capability to bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was another point: rearing Ocean Hunters required vast amounts of resources and would consume enormous quantities of flesh and blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This level of consumption was not something an ordinary faction could afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Strengthen the defensive forces at the mouth of Mist Bay.
