Negotiating Terms

It's hard to imagine that such a colossal creature, over a hundred meters tall, could be pierced through by a single arrow from a Second Rank Half-Elf.

The Half-Elf Warrior on the entire battlefield were stunned at this moment; they had ultimately underestimated the power of this earth ranger.

However, that is indeed the case. Although this Deep Sea Magic Beast is the Sea Beast Priest's Contract Partner, the Sea Beast Priest's power is completely confined to the body of a siren, and a siren that has entered rigor mortis after death.

Lord Commander Latimore couldn't even protect himself, let alone offer any help to this Deep Sea Magic Beast in this battle.

Although this Deep Sea Magic Beast is an extremely powerful level four monster, it emerged from the Endless Sea Abyss. Even if it reaches the shallow sea area, its power will be greatly weakened, let alone on the North Coast coast of Sun Island Bay.

It can be said that the surrounding environment put this Deep Sea Magic Beast at a great disadvantage.

To put it bluntly, if this were in the desert, the Half-Elf Warrior a finger; they'd probably just be dried into squid right there in the desert...

Moreover, for Deep Sea Magic Beast, although the stronger the individual, the greater the power they possess, the greater the energy consumption required to maintain themselves.

This Deep Sea Magic Beast came to the shallow waters. In order to keep its body from breaking apart, it needed to use tremendous strength to maintain its body. In fact, without the wave of tide pushed by the Toadfish Cavalry, it would not have been able to fight in such shallow waters.

It was precisely this wave of tides that directly cut off the last escape route for this Deep Sea Magic Beast.

Of course, the power of this Deep Sea Magic Beast is self-evident. When it is swimming in the deep sea, it may be able to swallow an Killer Whale with its abilities. But it can't do that here. This is the North Coast of Sun Island Bay.

At the last moment, Byron.Toll pierced the Deep Sea Magic Beast with an arrow, preventing it from launching its most powerful attack...

There's not much to say about the death of Lord Commander Latimore; in the eyes of this Sea Beast Priest, he probably didn't even notice the Half-Elf carrying a Hammer of Judgment Book on the Magic Airship.

Lord Commander Latimore's gaze was completely drawn to Sabrina, who was dancing the ' Dance of Radiance,' while he was constantly on guard against the Earth Tyrant Bear at the stern of the ship.

Indeed, the Wood Elf ' Treant Legion and druid legions had left an indelible impression on this Sea Beast Priest during the naval battles of the past...

Furthermore, he never imagined that with the siren's powerful physique, he couldn't withstand a warhammer casually thrown by a human Priest! The zombified Lord Commander Latimore was not only somewhat sluggish in action, but also in thought. He didn't expect that the Silver Hammer would leave him defenseless, nor did he expect that an assassin would be so audacious as to rush up behind him at this moment and cut off his head.

At this moment, Lord Commander Latimore was merely a wandering spirit, unable to move under the threat of the Holy Light, and could only watch helplessly as his head was severed.

I originally thought it was going to be a bloody battle...

Unexpectedly, the battle had barely begun when Byron.Toll, Second Rank powerhouse standing on the seawall and known as the Earth Ranger, ended the fight with a single arrow.

As the Deep Sea Magic Beast's body sprayed out a large amount of black fluid, its body quickly shriveled up.

The tentacles wrapped around the Magic Airship quickly turned into a large amount of black water, staining the deck. The magic Magic Airship, freed from its restraints, rose rapidly. Moira and Roy, who had jumped onto the Deep Sea Magic Beast, did not have time to return to the Magic Airship and could only fall from a height of 100 meters.

Kaka and the other Griffon Cavalry were watching the battle. When they saw Roy and Moira fall as the Deep Sea Magic Beast shrank, they quickly swooped down on their griffins and caught Roy and Moira.

Other Half-Elf Warrior who fell from the sky were also caught by the Griffon Cavalry.

Meanwhile, the other Griffon Cavalry swept across the waves, attacking the Toadfish Cavalry standing on the crests...

Byron.Toll. He stood on the seawall, the waves surging past him on either side, instantly destroying the harbor that had been built less than a month prior. Huge waves crashed into the jungle, even uprooting countless trees from the dense forest...

The enormous corpse of the Deep Sea Magic Beast, accompanied by countless drops of black water, plummeted from the sky, continuously falling into the huge 'swimming pool' formed by the ring-shaped seawall.

When Roy threw out the ' Hammer of Sanction ', he sensed a dense aura of death emanating from the siren standing atop the sea monster's head.

The ' Hammer of Sanction ' in his hand slammed into Lord Commander Latimore, and a burst of intense holy light erupted, instantly purifying the zombie. Combined with the ' Hammer of Sanction's' ability to force a stun, it could be said that Lord Commander Latimore pinned to the spot.

As Moira severed the head of Lord Commander Latimore, Roy even saw a phantom of a soul appear on Lord Commander Latimore's body, which scattered amidst constant screams and wails, and the deathly soul was completely purified in the holy light.

A soulstone, almost the size of two palms, condensed from Lord Commander Latimore's body and fell downwards along with Lord Commander Latimore corpse...

Roy felt the tentacles beneath his feet rapidly shrink, and he fell along with the corpse of Lord Commander Latimore. But during the fall, Roy managed to pick up the Soul Stone.

When the Soul Stone touched Roy's fingertips, it instantly transformed into a vast amount of nourishment, a nearly pure White Mist. This White Mist was continuously drawn into the magical vortex formed around the Sacred Tree within Roy's body, and a large amount of White Mist even formed a milky white cocoon of light around Roy's body.

Roy felt that at the moment of his fall, the Sacred Tree within his body began to grow rapidly.

Even the Light Flower on the Sacred Tree bloomed one after another, and after Roy's body was cleansed and purified by countless pure holy lights, a small-scale breakthrough followed...

The Sacred Tree within her body even emitted an unprecedented radiance...

Roy had just been promoted to a first-level High Priest, actually broke through again by force. Roy felt that his body became almost completely transparent under the holy light.

The next moment, Kaka's figure appeared in Roy's sight.

Roy landed on the griffin's soft back, and Kaka turned around, grabbed Roy's hand, and cheered, "Roy, hold on tight, I'll take you up..."

Almost at the same time, Little Eugene also caught the falling Moira...

Even as she fell, Moira remained remarkably conscious. During the fall, she even flipped over and moved closer to Roy, hoping to catch Roy just before they hit the sea and jump in with him.

As an assassin, she has a way of cushioning her landing, whether it's the sea below or a vast grassland.

Unfortunately, the Griffon Cavalry didn't give him a chance to show off, and caught them both easily.

Seeing that Roy and Moira had been caught safely, a cheer even erupted from the Magic Airship...

Jiezena leaned against the railing of the Ship Building. Just moments before, when the Magic Airship was about to capsize, Miss Tiffany had tied her to a railing post with a rope, preventing her from being thrown into the sea.

Even if she fell into the sea, Jiezena wouldn't be afraid. As a siren, her body was strong enough to withstand the impact of jumping into the sea...

Miss Tiffany was right next to her, but Miss Tiffany hid herself inside a bubble, almost avoiding all the impacts. She even calmly cast an Ice Armor on Woods.

Woods transformed into a Earth Tyrant Bear, its body covered in a thick layer of Ice Armor. It relentlessly tore at the tentacles on the Ship Building, and the bear's low growl reached the ears of the other Half-Elf Warrior, causing almost every Half-Elf to erupt with intense fighting spirit...

Miss Tiffany, hiding in a bubble floating in mid-air, saw Moira jump over and immediately severed the head of Lord Commander Latimore; her alluring red lips could almost swallow an egg.

"Wow... how did this girl do that? She severed Lord Commander Latimore's head with a single stroke. Jiezena, did you see that... the Sea Beast Priest you've been so wary of for so long died so easily. You plotted for so long, and you almost died at her hands..."

Jiezena face was as pale as paper, was indeed surprised, but her gaze was very calm. She casually said, "The Deep Sea Magic Beast was restricted by the power of the contract and recklessly ran to the sea. Lord Commander Latimore possessed an ordinary sea monster. What's so strange about him dying like this?"

"What you said does actually make some sense..."

Miss Tiffany also largely agreed with Jiezena's opinion.

As the Magic Airship gradually stabilized, Woods returned to his Half-Elf form. Roy and Moira were carried back onto the Magic Airship by Kaka and Little Eugene, and together with Sabrina, everyone stood on the Ship Building. Even a faint black figure crouched in a corner of the Ship Building's roof.

The Griffon Cavalry around were still fighting the Toadfish Cavalry, but when the Toadfish Cavalry saw their commander Lord Commander Latimore, they instantly lost their courage to fight and retreated to Sun Island Bay almost with the tide.

"Good heavens, Roy, just who is this Second Rank expert you invited? He actually killed a level four sea beast with a single arrow..." Woods shouted excitedly.

"He said his name was Byron.Toll, and that he used to be the captain of a Mercenary Group, a Second Rank powerhouse," Roy explained.

"Even if it's a Second Rank expert, there's no reason why they could kill a level four sea beast with a single arrow. If hunting sea beasts is this easy, wouldn't it be great if we just sailed into the ocean and hunted high-level sea beasts in the deep sea?" Woods was still somewhat excited.

"This sea monster isn't as powerful as you think. It emerged from the deep sea, so it can't use many of its abilities!" Tiffany replied, popping the bubbles covering its body with her wand and standing steadily on the deck of the Ship Building.

However, Jiezena was tied to the railing with ropes, spoke a string of Naga Language that no one could understand.

All eyes turned to Miss Tiffany Miss Tiffany, who was the only one among the elves who was fluent in Naga Language.

"Although this Deep Sea Magic Beast was seriously injured, it did not die. Its body has a splitting ability similar to that of a starfish. Even if it is broken and only a small part remains, it can slowly recover as long as it is soaked in seawater..." Miss Tiffany recounted.

Roy instructed the Half-Elf captain standing at the control panel, "Descend the Magic Airship. We need to hurry and deal with that Deep Sea Magic Beast..."

"Yes, Boss Roy!" The Half-Elf captain, whose legs were trembling, quickly stood up and replied.

"...&&%&#@&..."

Another string of Naga Language came through, which Roy couldn't understand at all. The heavily injured Jiezena spoke very quickly, Miss Tiffany listened attentively. Then she said to Roy, "Roy, this siren wants you to hand over that Deep Sea Magic Beast to her. In return, she said she owes you a favor and is willing to take the Deep Sea Magic Beast away from Sun Island Bay and never come back..."

After hearing Miss Tiffany's translation, Roy couldn't help but complain, "It's as if I couldn't get Sun Island without her!"

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Miss Tiffany, tell him that I can give her this Deep Sea Magic Beast, or I can let them go, but she must make a promise that can move me. Otherwise, what reason do I have to give her such a level four monster for nothing!"

At this moment, the Magic Airship began its slow descent...

Seeing that the siren was still hesitating, Roy said, "If we don't let her think about it quickly, once we jump off the seawall, we won't consider your suggestion anymore. We'll find the magic core as soon as possible."

Upon hearing Miss Tiffany's translation, the siren Jiezena lowered her head and pondered for a long while before finally raising her head and saying a few words.

Miss Tiffany quickly translated, and Roy finally understood the conditions that Jiezena had stated. In addition to completely ceding Sun Island Bay, she would also take away all the Sun Island fishmen and Toadfish Cavalry in the bay, and these fishmen would settle in a sea area outside Sun Island Bay.

The area they occupy will separate Sun Island Bay from the open sea, thus preventing dangers from the ocean from easily reaching Sun Island Bay.

Roy shook his head repeatedly, muttering, "We saved your life, and now we're giving you the Deep Sea Magic Beast? These are two completely different things! Two benefits!"

"Based on the principle of equivalent exchange, I need a promise from you: you must help us unconditionally once in the future. The Sun Island fishmen must not only give up Sun Island Bay, but also give us 20% of their catch when they fish in the Sun Island Outer Sea."

Actually, Roy didn't care too much about the first two conditions. What Roy cared about most was the fishing harvest of the Sun Island fishmen. If he could keep a portion of it, then all the Half-Elf of Pattington Plane could eat the fish produced in Pattington Plane.

This is extremely important for the entire Pattington Plane; the Half-Elf won't have much strength just from eating fruit...

Only by occasionally eating some sea fish can the elves become healthier.
