Chapter 422 I am Long Jun’s sister
When the Naruto Strait was breached, the first places to be hit were the coastal cities along the way.
All cities in the Seto Inland Sea are evacuating their personnel. No local government dares to take chances at this time, because fishmen will eat humans.
An hour later, in the island defense line between Takamatsu City and Okayama City, fighter planes cut through the sky at extremely high speeds, fighting the flying fishmen in an indissoluble battle. Bombers kept dropping bombs, creating white spots in the strait.
Even above the resistance base in Matsumoto City, hundreds of armed helicopters opened fire on the fishmen passing over the sea. Missiles and machine guns continued to fire, leaving behind corpses and wreckage, but they could not stop the fishmen at all.
The city of Matsumoto, which had only 5000 troops, quickly abandoned the urban area and evacuated to the mountains 10 kilometers away.
Neither the land nor the sky was able to do anything. The 5000 new troops sent by the Mermaid Kingdom were quickly defeated in the waters of Matsumoto City and fled back to the Mermaid Kingdom one after another.
Now the merman army has already penetrated deep into the heart of the Mermaid Kingdom. Originally the Mermaid Kingdom could have retreated from the south, but unfortunately the latest news has just arrived.
The Beppu Bay defense line of Kyushu and Shikoku was also breached by the fishmen, and the Kyushu First Fleet was completely wiped out.
Although the First Fleet was surpassed by the Angry Sea Fleet under the power of the Dragon King, it still far exceeds the other three fleets. It has two amphibious assault ships (helicopter light aviation), three missile cruisers, nine missile destroyers, seven Inari frigates, and eight submarines.
The existence that was once enough to destroy the small African country is now completely buried under the sea. Even the 10-strong army and cultivator army suffered heavy casualties, and they had no choice but to retreat inland.
This also shows that Kyushu, Shikoku, and even the southern part of Honshu no longer have any power to resist the fish-man army.
The war situation deteriorated rapidly. Not only the Mermaid Kingdom, but even the netizens could not help but despair when they heard that the southern defense line had collapsed and only the northern defense line was struggling.
There was chaos on the Internet for a while, and some people even took the opportunity to buy for free.
What should we do now? There is not much space in Shikoku and Kyushu. It is only a matter of time before they are swallowed by the fishmen. Even Honshu is hard to say.
Ryugu Palace in the Seto Inland Sea is located in the center of the inland sea, with the Seto Islands defense line to the south, the Matsumoto City defense line to the north, and the mountains of Shikoku and Honshu to the east and west.
The underwater kingdom, which was originally easy to defend and difficult to attack, has now been surrounded by fishmen, and the only way to escape is to go ashore.
However, only a small number of people could escape to the shore. After all, even some mermaids were unable to transform into two legs and could not get ashore at all, not to mention that some sirens even had difficulty breathing.
The remaining army of the Mermaid Kingdom all gathered around the palace, waiting for the final stand before the country's demise.
In the meeting hall of the royal palace, the senior leaders of the Mermaid Kingdom gathered and began to discuss.
The middle-aged man in the lead was named Seto Niou, the head of the Seto Kuro family and the king of the Mermaid Kingdom. The four people below him were all from the Seto Three Families.
The mermaid with long pink hair is named Seto Murasaki. She is very beautiful. She is the wife of King Seto Niou and the prime minister of the Mermaid Kingdom.
The head of the Seto Ai family is named Seto Can. She is a peerless beauty with long brown hair and a pink fish body. She has a graceful figure in a dress. Her proud plumpness is particularly obvious in the water. Her facial features are soft and delicate, full of maternal beauty.
She is Seto Akina's mother, an eighth-rank strongwoman, and the first mermaid royal family member to marry a human husband. Unfortunately, her husband had already died of illness.
The steady middle-aged woman next to her is named Seto Satoshi. She is the head of the Seto Shirai family and is also an eighth-level strongman.
The last woman is called Seto Ren, a mature woman with short dark blue hair, tall and plump figure, and the temperament of a strong woman. She is the aunt of Seto Niou, and is now the deity of the neutral faction of Takamagahara. When she was young, she was known as a mermaid genius, and in just 500 years, she became a late ninth-level.
Seto Shizuka reported with a serious expression.
"Your Majesty, our last thirty thousand troops have been assembled, ready to live and die with the Mermaid Kingdom."
Seto Niou sighed. He never thought that the mermaid kingdom, which had been passed down for nearly 2800 years, would be destroyed under his leadership. If he had known this earlier, he would not have gone to war with the mermaids and would have retreated directly back to the Seto Inland Sea.
Originally the Mermaid Kingdom had an army of 10, but now only one third of it remains, and there are still 28 civilians. He feels ashamed of his ancestors.
Seto Niou: "I see, Sang, how are the arrangements going on your end?"
Seto answered dejectedly.
"Your Highness, I have arranged for 3 civilians who can go ashore to go ashore."
"Well, thank you for your help. They will be the last flame of the Mermaid Kingdom."
The so-called landing plan is to go upstream along the Mizukawa River from Kurashiki City, then enter the Asahi River, a large river in the mountains of Yamanaka, cross most of the mountains in southern Honshu along the river, and finally reach the Neon Sea on the west coast of Neon.
Of course, this is only the main force, some nobles and talented sparks, which will be transported by plane and car.
Finally, Seto Niou looked at Seto Can, the woman he had a crush on, but unfortunately lost to a man named Manshio Nagatsumi. However, recalling how that human had grown from a weakling to a strong one, he had to praise the other as a real man.
I thought my son could fulfill his dream and marry Seto Chan's daughter. But Seto Akina disappeared half a month ago, and even the blood source ceremony was not completed. Otherwise, his Seto Kuro family would have become a real Seto royal family, and turning into a dragon would not be a problem. What a pity.
Seto Niou: "Chan, has Lady Otohime come out of confinement? The Mermaid Kingdom needs her help."
Seto Can looked bitter.
"No, Lady Otohime is still in seclusion, preparing to complete the final step of her transformation into a true dragon."
Seto Niou couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "It seems that the Mermaid Kingdom is doomed this time, so let's not disturb Lady Otohime."
Seto-chan suddenly suggested.
"Why don't we submit to the Dragon King Shrine again? Maybe they can send troops to help us. The Dragon King is a great and powerful god."
Seto Shizuka retorted angrily.
"It's useless. Have you forgotten that we proposed surrender more than half a month ago? As long as the Dragon King helps to deal with the merman army, the Mermaid Kingdom is willing to pay the price. But they refused without hesitation. Those guys in Tokyo wish to see us die."
Seto nodded in agreement.
"You don't even know that the lips and teeth are interdependent. You are such a short-sighted guy." This is indeed true. More than half a month ago, Longting was in the most important expansion period. The four armies of the east, west, north and center were all busy. Only a fool would get involved in the war with the fishmen at that time, so Yuzuru Nagayama refused straightforwardly.
After all, standing by and watching is beneficial to Longting in every way.
The meeting room fell silent, and Seto-chan no longer proposed that as a mermaid royal family, she would live and die with the kingdom.
At this moment, Seto Ren spoke.
"You don't have to despair. In addition to asking a few good friends for help, I also asked a real great master, Lady Kikurihime-no-Mikoto. She is a localist and will not sit idly by and watch the fall of the homeland."
"Great and powerful god?"
Everyone is very energetic this time. If there are powerful gods in charge, it should not be a problem to defend the Seto Inland Sea, let alone defeating the army of fishmen.
At this moment, although there were 9 ninth-order gods on the fishmen's side, no powerful god took action.
Hope came again, and the mermaid leaders began to disperse, planning to organize an army for the final resistance. No matter what, they would live and die with the Mermaid Kingdom.
When Seto Chan left the royal city, a call froze him.
"Mother."
Seto Chan turned around and saw a girl with long brown hair standing not far away. Upon closer inspection, the two were exactly the same, except that one was more mature and the other was full of youth, like a pair of sisters.
Seto Chan excitedly hugged his only daughter.
"Silly daughter, why did you come back if you left? No, you need to leave Seto Sea now."
Seto Akina: "Mother, the Mermaid Kingdom is saved."
"what?"
In the northern part of the Seto Inland Sea, on the battlefield of Kitagi Island, under the leadership of Seto Ren, 4 troops and true god helpers rushed towards the enemy. At this time, the sea surface opposite was pitch black, and there was no way to know how many fishmen there were on the seabed.
50, 500 million, or 8 million, no one knew, all they saw was a dense mass of people like a black tide. Among them, there were 50 ninth-order true gods and eighth-order monsters, which could be said to be out in full force.
When the mermaid army fearlessly broke through the thickness of 300,000 mermen in front, it was finally trapped by the human wave tactics.
Death and screams filled the battlefield. Seto Ren injured the merman god with one blow. Looking at the sacrifice of the last batch of elite soldiers of the Mermaid Kingdom, his heart was truly broken.
I hope the second generation god, the shrine goddess Kikurihime-no-Mikoto, can help quickly.
Suddenly, a fish-man god let out a wail, and his entire soul was torn out of his body, and then disappeared into thin air.
Suddenly, a pink-haired goddess with a plump figure and wearing a shrine maiden's costume appeared from the head of the corpse. Her face was cute and friendly. It was Kikurihime.
The mermaids were extremely excited at this moment, but more than that, unexpected events happened one after another, and then a dragon roar was heard.
A real dragon rushed out of the mermaid secret realm, its divine power reaching the extreme of the ninth level. Its waves of dragon power were no weaker than those of an ordinary tenth-level dragon. She was none other than Yiji who had completely transformed into a real dragon.
This time she had to thank the legacy of her brother who had died 2600 years ago. Not only did it allow her to completely transform, but she even inherited her brother's tenth-tier artifact, the Dragon Vein Halberd.
Otohime changed back into human form and rushed directly towards a fish-man god. With a swing of her halberd, she cut the enemy in half, severely injuring him.
A shout suddenly broke out from the mermaid formation.
"Otohime-sama, Princess Otohime, the princess of the Mermaid Kingdom."
"My lady Princess."
It is conceivable that Otohime's reputation cannot be compared with that of foreign masters.
Of course, Kikurihime-no-Mikoto didn't care about this reputation issue. She was more interested in Otohime, who was supposed to be dead. She was the fuse of the dragon disaster, and she was also an acquaintance she had chatted with several times.
Kikurihime: "Otohime, you are actually fine. I am really surprised. Could it be related to Lord Longjun?"
Otohime thought for a moment and gave an answer: "I am his sister."
"what??"
The fate of Kikurihime is a bit confusing. Nagayama Yuzuru has promised that he has nothing to do with the old dragon god, so how come there is a dragon girl sister?
Otohime smiled slightly.
"Master Kikurihime, why don't we talk after we've dealt with this filth."
"Alright."
Then the entire battlefield changed dramatically. Two powerful men who were comparable to gods joined forces to fight the enemy. In just one minute, four fish-man gods were killed, and the other five all fled backwards with injuries.
As for the lower-level murlocs, they could only flee as well, and millions of them were killed in just a few minutes.
Just when the mermaids thought they had won, a terrible breath suddenly came from afar, and a 500-meter-tall merman came back with the head of a merman monster in his hand.
A dark, foul cloud came over here, covering the land and the sea.
After seeing the fishman's appearance clearly, Kikurihime couldn't help but scream.
"Dagon."
