Chapter 224: A Corner of the Mysterious Sea People World!

"My Lord Allen, it is possible! As long as one consumes the Bubble Clam, any creature can stay freely in the sea for three days!"

"Besides, for the safety of our Merfolk Tribe, the environment of our tribe's location is actually quite similar to that of the Human Race; we also use giant bubbles to exclude seawater!"

After Wa Ga's explanation, Gervas learned for the first time that Merfolk like Wa Ga do not actually live in seawater all day when they are at the bottom of the sea.

Within the range of their tribe, Bubble Fish are used to create giant bubbles that separate the seawater.

This allows their tribe to exist in a dry environment.

As for the reason for doing this, it is very simple: it is for safety.

One can imagine that if the entire Merfolk tribe were surrounded by seawater.

Then if enemies launched an attack against them, could they not charge in from all directions?

This would be extremely disadvantageous for the defending side.

Conversely, if the seawater around the tribe is drained, then enemies can only attack from the ground, just like on land.

In that case, the defending side only needs to build city walls or fences to defend well against enemies.

Moreover, this method of defense is not unique to the Merfolk.

It is said that basically all intelligent Sea Peoples continue this tradition.

Even the powerful Sea Kingdoms in the North do the same.

In fact, those powerful Sea Kingdoms have even built magnificent underwater cities inside the bubbles.

And Merfolk like Wa Ga are at most like the weak, marginal Goblin race on land.

The only difference between them and Goblins is that they do not survive by raiding other races, but by catching sea fish to fill their stomachs.

Good heavens! Gervas exclaimed, "Good heavens!"

He felt that Wa Ga had opened a corner of the mysterious Sea People world for him.

In the past, he had no chance to learn about such information.

Of course, this may be related to the fact that the powerful Sea Kingdoms in the North have cut off communication with the Human Race.

Therefore, for a minor noble, one can only occasionally see a fragment of news about the Sea People in some books.

But more information and details about the Sea People are secrets held by the great noble families.

After all, in such a world, information monopoly is one of the control methods of the great families.

"Gervas, our tribe has urgently collected over a hundred Bubble Clams this time, but I know such a request is truly too excessive..."

"No, Wa Ga! We are good friends! When a good friend is in trouble, I, Gervas, have no choice but to help! Now, say no more; where are the Bubble Clams? I will immediately assemble my subordinates!" Gervas interrupted Wa Ga's words, who felt ashamed again!

"Gervas, the Bubble Clams cannot stay out of seawater for too long, so they have been kept by the seaside!"

"Good, then let us go to the seaside immediately!"

Gervas did not delay; he directly assembled a group of Knights and Knight Squires, plus fifty Barbarian Warriors and over forty crossbowmen!

In short, take as many subordinates as there are Bubble Clams!

Upon arriving at the seaside, Wa Ga fished the Bubble Clams out of the sea.

They were indeed clams with effects; the moment Gervas saw the Bubble Clams, he felt a surge of magical power.

Without further delay, he ordered his subordinates to open the clams directly and took a bite of the refreshing and chewy clam sashimi.

"Oh! Delicious, my lord! These clams are truly too delicious; I just wonder if there are any more!" After finishing, Knight Mi Gen's eyes immediately sparkled.

After all, these are clams containing magical power, not comparable to ordinary clams.

Of course, Knight Mi Gen's fate was predictable; a helmet was slapped onto his head by Gervas with a "smack."

"You rascal, do you really think magical clams are shells by the roadside?"

"Uh... my lord, I was just asking; please do not be angry!" Knight Mi Gen shrank his head and dared not make another sound.

And the effect of the Bubble Clam takes effect immediately; seeing Gervas and others eat them, Wa Ga immediately urged Gervas and others to try it.

It is said that even armor does not need to be removed, and there is no need to worry about water getting in.

Gervas naturally also wanted to see it for himself, so he immediately led his subordinates to try it out by the seaside.

When he walked into the seawater, he immediately discovered a miraculous situation.

He saw that after walking into the water, a thin film naturally formed on his feet, separating him from the seawater; neither his pants nor his skin were wetted by the seawater.

"Heavens! It is truly too miraculous! My lord, look at me; I have even laid down completely, yet nothing is wrong, and I can even breathe underwater!"

This fellow Knight Mi Gen has always been unrestrained; his actions were much faster than Gervas's. Seeing a membrane appear under his feet, blocking the seawater.

In the next moment, he actually threw himself directly into the seawater.

Fortunately, the effect of the Bubble Clam lived up to its reputation; not only did it block the seawater, but it also allowed people to breathe freely underwater without feeling any sense of suffocation.

One must know that this is not some round bubble, but a thin film clinging to the body; achieving such an effect is truly too miraculous.

Gervas felt carefully again; this magical film must be able to separate oxygen from the surrounding seawater, which is how one can breathe freely.

Moreover, they could not feel the water pressure of the seawater, which also means that they can indeed enter the deep sea relying on this film.

Although it is incredible, this world has combat qi and magic.

Therefore, anything is possible.

After verifying the effect of the magical clams, Gervas and others did not delay and immediately began to board the ship.

Yes, they needed to take a sea ship to the area where the Buwa Tribe was located, and then jump into the seawater to arrive.

After all, traveling from here to the area where the Buwa Tribe is located would take at least half a day if relying solely on swimming.

Although Gervas and his group could breathe freely and were not afraid of water pressure, it was absolutely not as easy as taking a boat.

And the sea surface location of the original Merfolk Tribe would definitely not be revealed to the Human Race.

But at this moment of survival or extinction, the Buwa Tribe naturally could not care less about such things.

"Haha! Toka! Surrender! How many people are left in your Buwa Tribe? If there is another battle, you will all be wiped out!"

"Lada, you're dreaming! Even if we die, we warriors of the Buwa Clan will never surrender!"

"Is that so?" Lada's smile faded, his expression turning ferocious. "Buwa, considering we were neighbors in the past, I am kindly advising you!"

"But if you do not listen, then do not blame me for being unkind. Once we conquer your Buwa Clan, I will kill your women and children one by one right before your eyes!"

"So, you must decide now whether to surrender immediately, or there will be no chance left!"

"You... Lada, you shameless scoundrel! Even after our Buwa Clan became powerful, I never thought of annexing your Daka Clan, yet now you actually want to force us with such cruel means?"

Toka's eyes turned blood-red; Lada was simply too shameless and ruthless.

In the past, although there were conflicts among the Merfolk, after defeating an enemy, women and children were absolutely never massacred; at most, they were reduced to slaves.

Yet Lada actually spoke of killing women and children; this had truly reached a state of madness!
