The Sea Dragon Egg, sealed for so long, requires high-quality sacrifices for perfect hatching, and they must be living creatures.
Due to Celinisās current operation needing to be conducted secretly, and with the caveās location currently under human control, itās impossible to hunt large Sea Beasts as sacrifices.
Thatās why Celinis dispatched someone to the distant Shipwreck Bay to invite the remaining few members of the Siren clan.
This was a plan she came up with after extensive deliberation.
Silently eliminate the elite human squads sent to inspect, and leverage the repeated scouting parties to gather fresh and high-quality sacrifices required for the ceremony.
Moreover, she believed that by the time humans fully react, the Awakening Ceremony would be over, and she would have successfully hatched the Sea Dragon and departed.
But unexpectedly, she failed at the last moment!
"Damn you! Die!"
Celinis forced herself through excruciating headache, her face filled with anger, and serpentined rapidly toward Rein.
She wanted to kill this bastard!
....
Upon hearing Reinās warning, everyone quickly retreated.
Furthermore, judging from the aura emanating from the six-armed Naga, it was undoubtedly a Legendary Level powerhouse!
That tangible sense of oppression couldnāt be faked.
Neoro and the others knew that advancing forward wouldnāt hold much significance besides needless casualties.
Yet, they were stunned in the next moment!
They hadnāt expected their Captain to be so reckless, directly engaging in a head-on confrontation with the opponent, at once causing everyoneās heart to jump into their throat.
Then, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, although their Captain was injured, the wounds seemed noticeably lighter than the opponentās.
However, seeing Reinās ribs bleeding profusely, Anna couldnāt hide her worry.
Only hesitating for a second or two, Annaās expression tightened, making a decision, and immediately began chanting a spell.
Seconds later, glowing small green leaves appeared before her, and as Anna swiftly pointed, the luminous green leaves gathered together, resembling a rolling green serpent, charging directly toward Reinās fallen position.
This was one of the few Level 1 Nature Witchcraft spells Anna had masteredāāHealing Spell.ā
As Rein barely stood up, the green serpent coiled around him, and the glowing leaves spontaneously attached to the wound under Reinās ribs.
Instantly, Rein felt strands of coolness and itching emanating from the wound.
Lowering his gaze, he saw the bleeding had quickly stopped, and the wound was visibly healing at a rapid pace.
Nevertheless, Rein felt no joy, because Anna casting the Healing Spell could very likely draw the attention of the six-armed Naga directly toward her.
In other words, Annaās recent action was extremely risky!
But soon, Rein felt relieved.
Perhaps because he had shattered the Magic-tailed Three-headed Sea Dragonās egg, or maybe the True Damage from āSoul Shatter Strikeā muddled her consciousness.
At this moment, the six-armed Naga ignored Anna, who was casting Cure Technique, and instead, with eyes burning in furious flames, charged relentlessly at him!
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Sealing Gate, Angus shouted cautiously, sword and shield in hand:
"Watch out, everyone, those Blood Curse Naga are charging toward us."
Just now, he acutely sensed that perhaps due to the six-armed Nagaās scream or a certain summons, the Blood Curse Naga from the underground tunnels were quickening their march toward here.
"Letās hold our ground here and try not to let them inside, easing the Captainās pressure," Angus shouted.
Several individuals nodded and immediately got into combat stance.
Apart from Anna, the other four had undergone squad training, swiftly positioning and casting according to the previous tactical plan.
Yet knowing the situation, Rein might have had them allow ten Blood Curse Naga in.
The reason?
Naturally, to stack ten units of Soul Energy, facilitating the use of āSoul Shatter Strikeā again!
...
To Reinās left, several meters away, about a dozen open-mouthed bags woven from certain water plants hung from the dim cave walls like net bags.
These elastic bags outlined humanoid figures inside, but the most revolting thing was that each face had a gray creature akin to a scorpion yet soft like an octopus clinging to it.
The tail chamber of these monsters pointed at the trapped individualsā mouths and noses, occasionally spitting out yellow-green gas.
This gas seemed hallucinogenic or sleep-inducing; if you approached, youād see these restrained individuals had their eyes shut tight, yet the eyeballs under the eyelids were rapidly moving.
...
Facing the approaching six-armed Naga, Rein intended to sidestep but immediately felt something amiss in his feet; looking down, he saw two transparent streams of water emerge from nowhere, binding his feet.
The one casting āWater Flow Entangleā was Celinis.
Celinis suddenly halted, while the uppermost pair of arms swiftly aimed a small fishbone bow at Rein.
The Level 3 danger perception instantly bombarded Rein with warnings.
