Lord of Arcane

Chapter 916 Sudden Surge of Murlocs

The Southern Territory, the Tower of Time.

Xia Duo didn't expect that a New Year's celebration would involve such a wide range, and he was already ready to go to Severton.

If he hadn't gone to Sevington now, he might not have the experimental conditions here at the Tower of Time, and he might have brought Niya there.

On this day, he had just finished the final question-and-answer session of the advanced training class for intermediate mages in the Tower of Time, and was about to ask Niya to have lunch with him when a message that should not have appeared suddenly came.

The content is very simple, only a string of seemingly irregular numbers.

But Xia Duo immediately realized that something might be wrong. This is the summons scroll he gave to Savile's scouts as an early warning during the Dragon Disaster.

Those numbers are indeed irregular, but they represent different early warning positions, and even different scout groups.

And the direction of the warning this time is the north?

Is there another dragon attacking?But hasn't Kingkiller Dissipated long ago?
Xia Duo's heart tightened, and he first sent a message to Niya and Eberke for a brief explanation, and then quickly came to the teleportation room.

Through the fixed portal set here to connect Savile Town, Xia Duo quickly came to the original site of the Tower of Time in Savile Town.

As soon as he walked out of the portal, he heard roars from the north, mixed with strange calls of non-human species.

These voices come and go, intertwined, like a battlefield that is being fought!
Near the portal, there were even more soldiers gathering here from far away. Xia Duo immediately realized that something was wrong, and hearing that non-human voice, he even felt a little familiar.

"Sir, you are finally here!"

Just as he was recalling, a person suddenly walked into the temporary building where the portal was located, and his thoughts were interrupted. Xia Duo was a little annoyed, but he did remember what the voice was.

Looking at the person again, it is the mayor of Sain, but at this time he is a little embarrassed, half of his body is wet, and his face is covered with dust. He ran to Xia Duo and said out of breath:
"My lord, a wave of murlocs suddenly broke out in the Wolfburg River. The situation is very critical. Please help me, my lord!"

As they were talking, Niya and Abeck walked out of the portal one after another. Seeing them, Thain seemed to have seen a savior, and hurried over to grab Abeke's hand, dragging him to go out. go and say:

"Quick, those murlocs are crazy!"

Abeck didn't make any resistance to the old friend's dragging, but just nodded to Xia Duo and Niya, and left the temporary building.

"Xia Duo, let's go too!"

Niya's face was solemn, and she called Xia Duo together, and while going out, she explained: "Just after you contacted me, I received a message from De Parker, saying that a mage who received a duty duty report to Zhenbei A wave of murlocs suddenly appeared, like crazy, attacking humans desperately."

Fish crowd?
Xia Duo chanted this word that was very similar to the tide of orcs. At this time, the non-human voices coming from outside were the sounds of a large number of murlocs. From this, he thought of the murlocs in Lake Mecht in the north.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the murloc farm of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce?
……

Walking out of the temporary building that "protected" the portal, Xia Duo and Niya followed the rapidly advancing soldiers to the north of the original site of the Tower of Time that had been filled.

Once here, the shouts of killing and the roars of the murlocs became louder, and there were hardly any traces of water nearby, and the water surface was densely covered with dark green fish heads!
At first glance, it makes one's scalp tingle!
On the shore, most of the murlocs gathered on the south bank. Only a few murlocs landed on the north and west.

As soon as Xia Duo and Niya came over, an elf suddenly appeared in the crowd. Niya was taken aback, but Xia Duo was much calmer. He recognized that the other party was Orepus, the patriarch of the Silver Leaf Family.

In a sense, he can be regarded as Xia Duo's friend.

At this time, Orepus didn't have much of the elegance of an elf. Not only was his hair very sharp, but he also exuded an unpleasant stench. It seemed that he had fought murlocs a lot before.

"Lord Xia Duo, I was just about to contact you! These murlocs are really crazy, even though they know that there is a dead end ahead, they still keep rushing upwards!"

Xia Duo looked around at the scene where the murlocs were crazily attacking the Savile soldiers' defense line, and he nodded, "Patriarch Orepus, thank you for your help. The Savile leader will never forget the friendship of the Silverleaf family!"

This was supposed to be said by Niya, but Nya and Orepus are not familiar, and Xia Duo will take care of it in an emergency. Anyway, the husband and wife are one, so it is the same for him to say.

Orepus was very satisfied with Xia Duo's words. He wiped the water drops from his hair, suppressed his disgusted expression, and squeezed out a smile, "Lord Xia Duo, you are welcome. Now the Silver Leaf family is in Savile Town Long stay, protecting this place is also our duty!"

It is not easy for an elf to voluntarily appear on such an occasion. Xia Duo can feel the sincerity of the other party, "The situation is urgent, so I won't say anything unnecessary. After the murloc tide is resolved, we will have a good communication."

"no problem!"

Orepus saw that Xia Duo was about to take action, and he stepped aside with a response, cast a cleaning spell on himself, and waited quietly.

……

In fact, just looking at the murlocs constantly appearing in front of him, Xia Duo was at a loss for a moment. He noticed that there were not many corpses on the battlefield.

Of course, this mainly refers to the murloc corpses. There are almost no deaths on the human side. At most, they are tired or injured, and then there are replacements.

However, this situation cannot last for a long time. When the limit is reached, even without waiting for the limit, the defense line will collapse as a whole.

At the same time, Xia Duo also noticed that Eberke had already tried to cast several spells, and indeed caused a lot of damage.

But for the densely packed murlocs on the surface of the water and the number of murlocs under the water, it didn't hurt or itch at all. Even after the spell passed, there were no traces of the spell.

The corpses and wreckage were dragged underwater by the murlocs, which was why there were few corpses on the battlefield.

Even the murloc corpses on the shore were also pulled back into the water. There were only muddy dark red blood stains on the shore, indicating that a real killing had indeed taken place here.

Otherwise, Xia Duo really thought it was a farce played by humans and murlocs!

"Lord Xia Duo, you are finally here!"

Just as he was thinking, another elf flew over from the crowd not far away. Xia Duo sized up the other party's face for a while, and recognized the other party's identity after a little thought——

"It turned out to be Elder O'Brien, thank you for your help!"

O'Brien is the father of Orepus and a high-ranking mage. He once had an intersection with Niya's great-grandfather, Savile, and his identity is still there.

Moreover, there are no fewer elf mages in Savile Town this time, but only the mages of the Silver Leaf family are willing to stand up and help, and Xia Duo naturally expressed his gratitude.

And O'Brien was not polite, and accepted it completely, and said: "I'm tired of helping you block the murlocs for so long, and you can figure it out from now on!"

It was only then that Xia Duo realized that the murlocs did not extend the front along the south of Worfburg. It turned out that O'Brien was exerting force. He thought that the murlocs were really completely attracted by humans!
Fairy magic really has something unique!
