Becoming the Master of a Mermaid Island From Today - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Reinforcements Arrived!

“How spectacular!”

“Too big! Too tall! I’ve never seen such a tall tree!”

A group of creatures who had newly arrived exclaimed.

From afar, they didn’t think much of it. However, when they got closer, they immediately felt the grandeur of the Ocean Tree. Everyone was shocked by the object in front of them, and their eyes held an even stronger desire.

The creatures could not move their eyes away. When they saw the Ocean Tree that had grown to such a height, both Dark Mount and Mighty Serpent knew that the Ocean Tree was about to mature. Their expectations rose.

When they thought about how they had lost almost ten of their own clansmen for the sake of the Ocean Tree, their hearts ached. Fortunately, the Ocean Tree in front of them made them satisfied.

Now, each of them only had a dozen or so clansmen left, and they couldn’t bear any more losses..

“Attack!”

While Dark Mount, Mighty Serpent and the others were immersed in the spectacular sight of the Ocean Tree, Lei Xiu had already been waiting by the side and shouted.

Immediately, Sharkwood and the others who had been lying in ambush in the surroundings opened their fangs and charged towards the enemies.

“Not good! There’s an ambush! Get out of the way!” Mighty Serpent immediately shouted, then turned around and twisted his body to dodge the fangs that were coming towards his heart from a strange angle. The sharp fangs brushed past Mighty Serpent’s body, causing a trace of blood to appear.

Dark Mount was the second creature to discover the ambush. He also used the same method to avoid Sharkwood and the others’ attacks.

The rest of the clansmen did not have such a quick response. They were already immersed in the spectacular sight of the Ocean Tree and had already let down their guard. Now that they were suddenly attacked, they naturally did not react so quickly.

Immediately, a few creatures had their hearts pierced by the fangs of Sharkwood and the others, and they died on the spot. There were even a few slightly stronger creatures who were heavily injured and fell to the ground, vomiting blood and losing their ability to fight.

It seemed like a long process, but in fact, it only took an instant. When Dark Mount, Mighty Serpent, and the others regained their senses, they realized that they had lost five or six more of their clan members in a single raid. Some of them even lay on the ground and lost their ability to fight.

Upon closer inspection, there were only six or seven clansmen left who still had fighting strength.

When they saw this result, the excitement of Dark Mount and Mighty Serpent when they first saw the Ocean Tree plummeted to rock bottom.

“Razor Tiger Shark! How dare you attack us! Do you want to die!” Dark Mount fixed his eyes and realized that it was the Razor Tiger Sharks that attacked them. Although he was a little surprised that the Razor Tiger Shark would appear here, the death of his clansmen had already made Dark Mount furious. He immediately shouted angrily.

“Razor Tiger Shark! Who gave you the guts to actually attack us!?” The pupils of Mighty Serpent’s narrow eyes fiercely constricted as he stared venomously at SharkWood and the others as he spoke. Even though he seemed calm on the surface, everyone familiar with the Sea Serpent Clan knew that this was the expression of the Sea Serpent Clan when they were extremely furious.

Sharkwood and the others did not say anything. They just stared at the remaining enemies.

“I told them to attack!” Lei Xiu walked out from the side and said indifferently.

“Razor Tiger Sharks, you actually joined the human!” Dark Mount said angrily.

At this moment, even a fool would know that Sharkwood and the other sharks were listening to Lei Xiu’s orders.

“Sharkwood! You guys did well. Now, it’s not like we don’t have a chance anymore!” Lei Xiu looked at the remaining 10 plus enemies and said lightly.

“Island Master! You are truly wise, allowing us to set up an ambush ahead of time! This is the only way to have such an effect!” Sharkwood flattered appropriately.

“Have you asked me for the Ocean Tree? I already said that it belongs to me, how dare you still continue to have desires for it?” Lei Xiu looked at Dark Mount and said.

“Human! Don’t think that you can be arrogant just because you have the Razor Tiger Shark Clan on your side. Don’t forget that the Razor Tiger Shark is only the weakest among the four great clans!” Dark Mount replied confidently.

“Brother Dark Mount! Looks like we have to work together again. Let’s kill these Razor Tiger Sharks first, then kill this human brat. After that, we’ll split the Ocean Tree!” Mighty Serpent said to Dark Mount.

“Attack!” Dark Mount shouted loudly and charged forward first.

The Snitches behind him followed suit and rushed towards the Razor Tiger Sharks. They had their pride. They would not allow themselves to lose to the weakest clan.

Mighty Serpent and the serpents were not to be outdone either. They charged towards the Razor Tiger Shark Clan as well.

Lei Xiu’s side naturally didn’t have anything to say. After the assault from before, the number of enemies on the battlefield was the same now, and Sharkwood and the others moved forward to greet them.

Although they were at the bottom of the four great clans, that was only the overall strength of the clan. Now that their numbers were the same, it gave them a chance to fight against the Snitches and the Sea Serpents.

“You are actually working for the human! How embarrassing for our four clans! Today, I will clean up the sect!” As he spoke, Dark Mount opened his huge tentacles and charged towards the Razor Tiger Sharks.

“Hmph! So what if you’re a member of the Snitches? That’s just your overall potential. You might not be able to defeat them in a one-on-one fight!” Sharkwood was not to be defeated. He opened his bloody mouth and bared his sharp fangs, colliding with the tentacles that were charging towards him.

The soft tentacle was not pierced by the sharp fangs as expected. Instead, it let out a series of clashing sounds. The tentacle was like steel, invincible.

Both sides were forced back, the seriousness in their eyes showing their strength.

Mighty Serpent spat out a green thorn towards the Razor Tiger Shark.

This was a common technique used by the Sea Serpents. The sharp thorn was filled with venom, and any ordinary creature that came into contact with it would die. Even the stronger creatures had to be extremely careful.

The Razor Tiger Sharks obviously knew the power of this thorn and did not dare to touch it with their tusks. They quickly turned their bodies and could no longer dodge. They could only use the fins on their backs to block it.

As soon as the thorn made contact with the fin, it stuck to the surface, emitting a sizzling sound and emitting a puff of smoke. The fin was rapidly corroding and the venom was flowing along the fin towards the body.

The Razor Tiger Shark also knew that it could not survive if this continued. It painfully cut off the fin on its back.

The fins that fell to the ground were completely corroded by the venom in a short while.

Looking at the battlefield, it seemed like Sharkwood’s party was being suppressed.

As time passed, Sharkwood’s side became worse.

Not far away, Lei Xiu was also extremely anxious as he overlooked the situation. His gaze was fixed on the sea not far away.

“This… this is… the Ocean Tree!”

At this moment, something even worse happened. The last wave of undersea creatures that came to watch the show had arrived.

“There’s actually an Ocean Tree here! No wonder Dark Mount and Mighty Serpent came here. Look! There’s also the Razor Tiger Sharks! They’re fighting.”

These creatures spoke one after another, their eyes revealing their desire for the Ocean Tree.

“Brothers! While they’re fighting, we’ll fight for the Ocean Tree with our own abilities!” A voice sounded.

Immediately, one of the creatures rushed over. With the first creature taking the lead, the rest of the group followed, afraid that they would not even get any portion if they were late.

“Rumble!”

At the same time, when they were within a hundred meters of the Ocean Tree, booming noises echoed in the air.

Six cannonballs were fired at the same time and charged at the group of approaching creatures aggressively.

“Not good! There’s a turret! Hide!”

Despite someone’s reminder, due to the large number of people, everyone was affected by the explosion.

The lucky ones only suffered minor injuries, while the unlucky ones died on the spot, leaving not even scraps behind.

Those who had survived the calamity gasped for breath. They were shocked. They didn’t expect there to be such powerful turrets here.

“Brothers over there, I can tell you how to get in here, but you have to help us kill these Razor Tiger Sharks!” Mighty Serpent saw the group of people who were frowning and said loudly.

“Alright! Then you have to share some of the reward with us!” After thinking for a moment, the group of creatures agreed.

Hence, the group followed the instructions given by Mighty Serpent and arrived at the Ocean Tree.

They kept their promise and joined the battle.

Sharkwood and the other sharks, who were already unable to hold on, were in even more danger now.

“Stop!”

Just as Dark Mount was about to deal a fatal blow to Sharkwood, a voice rang out from not too far away. Then, a spear shot over from not too far away.
