Chapter 222 Sea Tribe Invasion
When the main force of the Eternal Night Army was attacking Jubei City, there were also movements in other places in the Western Continent.
Port of Alutonka.
This is a super port of the Blood Empire, located in the heart of the east coast of the Blood Empire. It is like a sleeping giant, quietly guarding the endless ocean.
As an important maritime gateway of the empire, it is not only a key node for the transportation of materials, but also a frontier position for the projection of military force. Ships shuttle back and forth in the port, and the shadows of their sails are like clouds, like a flowing ocean painting.
The Blood Empire's navy is not weak. In the past, it was only slightly weaker than the Hundred Nations Alliance. Now, after decades of development and catching up, it has already surpassed the alliance navy.
There are many reasons for this, but the two most important ones are:
One is "licking the bag". When the Hundred Nations Alliance was destroyed, although the "big experience package" was absorbed by the Eternal Night Empire, the Blood Empire was not without gain. They took advantage of that chaotic time and took away a lot of naval information and talents from the Hundred Nations Alliance.
Afterwards, as the situation in the Northern Continent stabilized, some old citizens who missed the kingdom, seeing that there was no hope of restoring their country, fled directly to the Western Continent and surrendered to the Blood Empire.
There were also many talented people among these old people, who indirectly promoted the development of the imperial navy.
The second is learning. After opening trade with the Eternal Night Empire, a lot of new materials and knowledge inspired the Blood Empire, thus strengthening its own navy.
Although they have not undergone real combat tests, the Blood Empire is full of confidence in the strength of its own navy.
Maybe they can't defeat the navy of the Eternal Night Empire, but if they just defend the Western Continent, there will be absolutely no problem.
That’s right. After seeing the previous performance of the Eternal Night Empire and the in-depth understanding over the years, the Blood Empire, from top to bottom, has given up the idea of engaging in a head-on battle with the Eternal Night Empire.
Can't beat it, really can't beat it.
We don't need to fight outside, as long as we can defend our own piece of land.
……
evening.
The outbound ships, fully loaded with cargo, returned to the port one after another. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sparkling sea, covering the returning ships with a layer of golden glow.
The port was bustling with people. A small number of vampires stood on high places, waving long whips and hitting the workers from time to time. The dock workers were busy shuttling between the piles of cargo, loading boxes of goods onto the ship, or unloading them.
Most of these laborers come from the monster race. In the Blood Empire, they have a very low status. Not only do they have to do a lot of heavy work every day, but they also need to donate blood regularly.
They came from forces conquered by the Blood Empire, and after hundreds of years of domestication, they had long lost the will to resist. Under the indoctrination of the Blood Empire, they believed since childhood that this was the treatment they deserved.
They were born slaves, born to serve the noble vampires of the Blood Empire.
Everything seemed so peaceful, the workers were working hard, hoping to return home as soon as possible and have a delicious dinner.
The vampire stood on a high place, his eyes scanning the surroundings. He seemed to be monitoring, but in fact his mind was already wandering, thinking about where to go to enjoy himself later.
Should I go to the tavern to drink a glass of the best "Blood of Ten Thousand Beasts" or go to the underground fighting arena to watch the "Life and Death Duel"...
Everything seemed so peaceful until someone noticed something unusual.
"Why is the sea water still rising?" Someone asked in confusion as he looked at the sea water spreading to his feet.
clap clap...
In response, a whip was swung at him. The blood clan supervisor standing on a high place waved the whip and scolded him coldly: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and work. You don't want your wages for today, right?"
"Your Excellency Lord Dalico, the tide is rising!" replied the whipped laborer, enduring the pain.
"Stop talking nonsense. The tide rises every day here. I think you just want to be lazy. Hurry up and work. If you don't, I'll beat you to death!" The vampire supervisor glanced at the ground and saw that sea water was indeed surging up. However, he did not pay too much attention to it. He swung the whip, making a "swish" sound that broke through the air.
"Yes, yes, I'll go to work right away..." The laborer felt something was wrong, but facing the long whip that was about to hit his face, he dared not say anything more. He quickly lowered his head and trotted to move things.
"A bunch of bastards, just thinking about being lazy all day long!" The vampire supervisor snorted coldly and cursed with a smile. He took off the wine bottle from his waist, opened the cap, and immediately a strong smell of blood filled the air.
After taking a big sip, the vampire supervisor inspected the workers below. His eyes were as sharp as a falcon, making people feel cold on the back of their necks.
After a while, the sea water was getting higher and higher. The workers silently stopped their work and looked at the supervisor above. At this time, even if the vampire supervisor was stupid, he would have found something wrong.
"What's going on? Normally, would the sea water rise to this level?" the vampire supervisor asked himself in confusion.
The entire port came to a halt and the scene began to become chaotic. The vampire overseers waved whips, maintaining order on the scene while waiting for orders from above.
However, instead of receiving the order, more and more waves came.
On the distant horizon, the roar of the tsunami was like a roar from hell, deafening and irresistible.
The sea water suddenly surged up, forming huge waves that smashed towards the shore like countless giant beasts. The port's dock became shaky under the impact of the waves, as if it would be swallowed up at any time.
"Tsunami, how could a tsunami suddenly break out?!"
"Run, run into the inner city. There is a defensive magic circle inside the city. Don't stop here."
"Help!"
Faced with the irresistible natural disaster, people fled in all directions, screams and cries were heard one after another, and the entire port fell into chaos. No matter how the vampire supervisors whipped their weapons, it was of no use.
In the face of death, pain no longer matters.
Even most of the vampire supervisors had already run away.
When the tsunami hit, those who ran slowly were swallowed up directly, while those who ran fast rushed forward all the way and headed straight for the city.
"Close the city gates, activate the magic circle, and resist the tsunami." The vampires inside the city discovered the tsunami earlier than the docks, and when the tsunami came, they were already prepared.
The energy shield instantly covered the entire city, wrapping it inside. The violent waves hit the shield, just like hitting an invisible wall, and were instantly bounced back. The sea water splashed high, but it could not break through the solid energy shield.
The vampires in the city hid in a safe place, watching the raging waves outside, and couldn't help feeling a little relieved.
"What is that?" someone exclaimed.
At this moment, a huge black shadow swam in the sea, approaching at an extremely fast speed, and then suddenly accelerated and crashed into the city gate.
In addition, there were countless sea warriors swimming in the sea. They surrounded the city and looked at the vampires inside with cruel smiles on their faces.
With a bang, the whole city began to shake as the huge sea beast hit it.
The vampires in the city were horrified at the scene outside.
"The sea clan is invading? How is that possible? I clearly didn't receive any news!" The blood clan city lord looked at the sea clan warriors outside the city with an extremely ugly expression.
The Blood Empire has connections with the sea tribes in the surrounding waters, and they have even conquered several sea tribes in order to know the situation in the ocean world in advance. For a super power at the continental plate level, this couldn't be easier.
Although we cannot go to the deep sea, with so many high-level warriors, it is easy for us to deal with the shallow sea forces.
However, the problem now is that no sea tribe force has passed any information to them.
The situation couldn't be more obvious.
This sea clan force came from the deep sea area and attacked suddenly, leaving our own forces no time to notify them.
Giant beasts of extremely large sizes kept hitting the energy shield with their bodies, causing the entire city to shake.
"It's really a troublesome turtle shell, but fortunately we have rich experience in dealing with it." On the mount of a giant beast in the distance stood a Naga lord who was at the peak of the ninth-level holy domain and close to the realm of demigod. He looked at the energy shield outside the city and grinned grimly.
"Big guys, keep attacking and smash this turtle shell." In response to the lord, the deep-sea monsters worked even harder.
After completely unifying the ocean world, the development of the Naga Kingdom over the years has been like a plug-in, with ninth-order strongmen emerging like crazy, expanding more than ten times than before.
Not only did they develop the ocean world of their own plane, they also extended their reach to those void half-planes.
Over the years, the Eternal Night Empire has never stopped its conquest of the demiplane.
However, the Eternal Night Empire is a land country. Even though it has many powerful people, it will not be able to deal with the sea tribes and sea beasts in the sea unless the entire sea area is roused.
It was not until the Naga Kingdom unified the ocean world of this plane that they truly possessed the ability to completely clear those seas. Before that, it was at most a trial ground for the Naga Kingdom, and they would send strong men there from time to time.
just now……
The sea clan army attacks!
While clearing these waters, the power of the Naga Kingdom expanded rapidly.
Not only did they conquer the sea tribe, they also subdued many deep-sea beasts. These beasts were extremely powerful and basically possessed high-level talents when they reached adulthood.
Under the continuous impact of the deep-sea monster, the city’s energy shield soon collapsed.
It’s no wonder that the defense system here is so poor. After all, who could have thought that there would be a force that could land here directly and bring so many strong people with them!
"Bam—"
With a loud bang, the energy shield began to shatter.
The sea water poured in, and the vampire warriors screamed in fear and fled in all directions.
If they were faced with other invading forces, they would still fight for the glory of the vampires, but seeing the current situation, most of the vampires no longer had the will to resist.
The sea water swept in, and the city beneath their feet became an isolated city. Everywhere visible to the naked eye were sea warriors. The only support, the energy shield, was shattered!
Just asking, how do you fight this?
Can't fight.
They really couldn't fight with the sea creatures in the ocean, which was really difficult for them.
It is true that they possess the extraordinary strength of the sixth level and can ignore the influence of some environments.
But the problem is that the opponent is also a level six fighter!
No one cared about the fleeing vampire warriors, and the city was in chaos with no order at all.
Because the vampire lord of this city fled with his cronies as soon as the energy shield was broken.
With the situation so clear, the Blood Clan City Lord had absolutely no intention of being buried with the city.
His idea is also very simple.
The city is gone, and as long as the other party is still there, we can use the power of the empire to take it back. At that time, we can just recruit a group of vampires from the mainland and buy a group of blood slaves, and the city will be back.
Even if he takes a step back and cannot win back the battle, the worst that can happen is that he will give up being the city lord and return to his family. With his strength as a ninth-level saint, he can still live a good life.
"Kill! Fight for the God of Fear!"
Under the leadership of the Naga warriors, countless sea warriors jumped out of the sea, climbed onto the city wall, and charged into the city.
"For the glory of the fearful ancestor god!"
"Kill, kill, kill!!!"
The blood clan warriors who failed to escape in time were completely powerless to resist the attack of the sea clan army.
The sea clan warriors easily killed the blood clan warriors.
One by one, the blood clan warriors fell, their bodies sank to the bottom of the sea, and their blood completely dyed the sea red.
Occasionally, the vampires would fight back, but they would be easily suppressed.
Compared with the sea clan warriors who are considered the elite in the world, the blood clan warriors in this city are not that powerful.
Because of the different positioning, no one had ever thought that one day this place would become a priority target and be invaded by sea forces.
As long as the front line was not lost, the Blood Empire could not imagine how a large-scale army could directly invade the coastal city.
So naturally, not too many elite vampires were sent over.
Coupled with the stinginess of the blood clan city lord, the various defense facilities were somewhat perfunctory, so that this very important city in the Blood Empire did not even hold out for half a day before it fell.
"What a weak race." The sea clan general looked at the surrendering blood clan warriors, sneered and said.
"Not only are they weak, but they are also stupid. They actually think that a few small tribes can monitor our movements. They are completely unaware of such obvious signs of a large tide." Another sea clan general also laughed.
"It's boring. I've prepared for so long in vain. If I had known it would be so boring, I would not have applied to come here." Another sea clan general complained.
"Let's go into the city. The Empire asked us to control our subordinates and not kill indiscriminately." The Naga Lord shook his head and rode his mount into the city.
Not only here, all the coastal cities of the Blood Empire were attacked almost at the same time.
The tsunami swept across the entire coastline, and the sea water covered it, providing favorable conditions for the invasion of the sea tribe.
Millions of sea clan warriors, divided into dozens of armies, led by the sea clan lords, launched an attack on the Blood Empire.
In just a few days, nearly a hundred cities fell.
