Lords of Hegemony: Conquer from the Mermaids

Chapter 140: Dark Frogman
"It's me, my king. I have important information." The dark frogman answered in a trembling voice and lowered his voice.

Deep in the cave, Canhu's face covered with hideous scars slowly appeared at the door.

His eyes widened, flashing with blood and cruelty: "Come in."

The dark frogman stepped into the cave cautiously, his heart filled with fear of the piranha leader Canhu.

"Tell me, what information have you brought?" Canhu's voice was low and powerful, as if it could penetrate people's hearts.

The dark frogman swallowed hard, trying to keep his voice steady. "Your Majesty, I've noticed some unusual activity within the frogman tribe lately. They seem to be secretly preparing something, and the atmosphere is tense, as if they're planning some major operation."

Canhu frowned when he heard this: "Oh? Are you sure what they are planning?"

The dark frogman shook his head. "I'm not sure what it is, but I suspect it's related to escaping here. They also seem to have made contact with the Blue Flag Dolphins and Shadow Merfolk. I'm worried they might join forces against us."

His expression grew increasingly gloomy, his eyes gleaming with anger. He suddenly raised his head and glared at the dark frogman. "Is this true? Do the Silver Scale Frogmen really dare to betray me?"

The dark frogman lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly. "It is absolutely true, my king. I have personally witnessed their secret meeting with the Blue Flag Murlocs and Shadow Murlocs, so I hurried to report to you."

After hearing this, Canhu showed a ferocious smile on his face, and a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes.

He slowly walked up to the pitch-black frogman, gently patted his shoulder with a huge claw, and said, "Very good, you did well. The Silver-Scaled Frogmen actually dared to betray me. They are courting their own destruction."

The dark frogman felt the terrifying aura emanating from the crippled tiger, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

He whispered, "My King, what should we do? Do I need to go back immediately and disrupt their plan?"

Canhu shook his head, a sly look flashing in his eyes. "No, it's not the right time yet. Since the Silver Scale Frogmen want to escape, then we'll let them. However, they can only escape temporarily, not forever. Once they get out, we'll slowly take care of them."

Hearing this, the Dark Frogman felt a wave of fear. He knew the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Tiger, and if he were to target them, they would be doomed. So, he asked cautiously, "My King, what should we do next?"

Canhu sneered and said, "You continue to lurk in the frogman tribe and keep a close eye on their movements. Once they begin to act, you must report back to me immediately. Then, I will personally lead the army to give them a 'surprise'."

The dark frogman's heart trembled, and he quickly nodded in agreement. He knew that he was now a pawn in the hands of the crippled tiger and could only obey his orders.

Meanwhile, the Silver Scale Frogmen's defection plan was proceeding intensively. The old frogmen had carefully considered every detail, waiting only for the right moment to act.

However, they were unaware that the Piranha Tribe had already become wary of them. The secret reports from the Dark Frogmen had given Canhu complete knowledge of the Silver Scale Frogmen's movements.

In the frogman tribe's camp, the silver-scale frogmen are holding final discussions with the leaders of the blue-flag murlocs and shadow murlocs.

They planned to defect as soon as the Piranhas launched an attack, looking for a new way out and escape the brutal rule of the Piranha tribe.

However, they did not know that a crisis was quietly approaching.

"We must hurry up, the remaining tigers of the Piranha Tribe are becoming more and more crazy." The voice of the Silver Scale Frogman Elder was low and firm. His eyes swept over every leader present, trying to convey his determination and courage.

The leader of the Blue Flag Dolphin Fishmen, a fat and honest fellow, nodded in agreement: "Yes, Canhu is a lunatic. We can no longer live under his rule."

The new leader of the Shadow Fish seemed hesitant. "But can we really succeed? The Piranha Tribe is formidable. If we were discovered, the consequences would be disastrous." The Silver-Scaled Frogman elder took a deep breath and tried to calm everyone. "I know this is dangerous, but we have no escape. Only by escaping here can we find a new life, new hope."

He paused, his gaze more determined than ever before. "I've already contacted the tribe outside, and they're willing to help us. As long as we can successfully escape, they'll offer us shelter and a new home."

The leader of the Blue Flag Dolphin Fishmen said worriedly: "Why hasn't Canhu taken any action yet? Has he discovered our plan?"

In a shadow outside the shack, a dark frogman was listening to their conversation silently.
He sneered inwardly. These foolish fellows actually tried to escape from the rule of the crippled tiger.

Suddenly, the sound of rushing water and shouts of killing broke the tranquility of the frogman camp.

When the dark frogman heard the noise outside, he felt secretly delighted, knowing that this was the signal for Canhu to take action.

He quietly left the shack and prepared to stay away from this place to avoid being accidentally injured. These stupid guys ate anything alive they saw without even checking whether it was one of their own.

On the other side, the chief elder of the Silver-Scaled Frogmen heard the shouts and screams and immediately realized that something was wrong.

He quickly organized the frogmen and prepared for battle.

At the same time, he said to the leaders of the Blue Flag Dolphin Fishmen and the Shadow Fishmen, "Quick! Act according to the plan and lead your people to evacuate immediately! We will hold them here!"

The tone of the Great Elder of the Silver-Scaled Frogmen was filled with unquestionable determination. Time was pressing, and every second of delay could lead to irreversible consequences.

Although the leader of the Blue Flag Dolphin Fishmen was still worried, under the firm gaze of the Silver Scale Frogmen Elder, he nodded, quickly gathered his people, and began to evacuate according to the pre-planned route.

The Shadow Fish leader followed closely behind, leading the Shadow Fish to leave the camp quickly and orderly.

Under the command of the Great Elder, the Silver Scale Frogmen warriors quickly deployed a defensive formation, ready to meet the attack of the Piranha Tribe.

However, when they rushed out of the camp, they found that the enemy was far more numerous than they had imagined, and their attack was extremely fierce.

Everywhere were piranha warriors gnawing frantically. These guys had gone completely crazy under the stimulation of blood.

Under the fierce attack of the enemy, the Silver Scale Frogmen warriors tried their best but were still defeated.

Their resistance seemed so powerless in front of the sharp teeth and strong bodies of the Piranha warriors. Many frogmen fell in the battle and became food for the Piranha warriors.

"Great Elder, they are too strong! We can't stop them at all!" A frogman warrior reported to the Great Elder anxiously.

The Silver-Scaled Frogman's chief elder gripped his weapon tightly, his voice hoarse, "No matter what, we must persevere! Buy time for our people to evacuate!"

Canhu personally led a team of elite piranha warriors, broke through the defense line of the silver-scaled frogmen warriors, and headed straight for the great elder.

There was a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes, as if he wanted to completely devour the Great Elder.
