Lords of Hegemony: Conquer from the Mermaids

Chapter 296 Coming to Help
"Tang Yu, this thing is very evil, we have to be careful." Gulugua said in a low voice.

Tang Yu nodded and said, "I'll try to seal it first. It will be safer to take it back this way."

After saying this, Tang Yu formed seals with his hands, and spiritual energy surged throughout his body. A transparent spiritual film slowly covered the light ball. When the spiritual film touched the light ball, a sharp sound was emitted, like metal rubbing against each other. The corrosive aura on the surface of the light ball became more intense, trying to break through the seal.

Tang Yu gritted his teeth and increased his spiritual power output, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. Seeing this, the merman shield spearmen beside him injected their own spiritual power into Tang Yu's body to help him seal the light ball.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the spiritual power film finally succeeded in wrapping up the light ball, and the corrosive aura was temporarily suppressed.

"Huh, it's finally sealed temporarily."

Tang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at everyone and said, "Everyone, be careful. This thing could malfunction at any time. Let's return to the camp and hand it over to the Lord."

So, under the leadership of Tang Yu, everyone headed towards the camp cautiously.

Tang Yu arranged several mermaid shield spearmen and tidal fishmen to take turns guarding the light ball, and did not dare to slack off at all.

As soon as we approached the camp, we found that a large number of monsters were gathering towards our camp.

Along the way, Tang Yu and the mermaid shield spearmen killed countless monsters, but the closer they got to the camp, the more monsters appeared.

"Tang Yu, why are there so many monsters suddenly here again?" Gulugua frowned. After resting along the way, Gulugua had recovered most of his spiritual power with the help of spirit stones and pills.

Tang Yu's expression also became extremely serious. He stared closely at the monsters that continued to gather in front of him and whispered, "This is not right... We just destroyed the teleportation array, and the monsters' teleportation should have stopped.

But now there are even more monsters, and they seem to be gathering towards our camp in an organized manner."

"Could it be that monsters from elsewhere have discovered our camp?" Gulugua speculated, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes. "That's not good. Although our camp's defenses are strong, there are simply too many monsters."

"No matter what the reason is, we must return to the camp as soon as possible." Tang Yu said firmly.

Looking at these monsters that kept charging towards them, Tang Yu had already guessed that the camp was definitely surrounded.

As a loyal warrior, Tang Yu was eager to return home and couldn't wait to return to the camp to protect the safety of the patriarch.

Tang Yu made a quick decision: "Chief Gulugua, you lead some of the Tidal Murlocs to make a detour from the side, trying to attract and distract the monsters. The remaining Merman Shield Spearmen and I will break through from the front and return directly to the camp."

Gulugua nodded in agreement and shouted to all the tidal murlocs, "Little ones, follow me!"

After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the flank of the monster group, with the tidal fishmen behind him following closely. They walked lightly and moved freely in the complex terrain, and soon disappeared from Tang Yu's sight.

Gulugua ran, chanting a spell under his breath, and the surrounding water elements quickly gathered around him. When he was close enough to the group of monsters, he turned suddenly, thrust his hands forward, and a surging wave of water instantly swept towards the monsters.

Sharp ice spikes crisscrossed the waves like blades, instantly piercing the approaching monsters with holes. The monsters screamed in agony and turned their attention to Gulugua. "Haha, everyone, look here!" Gulugua shouted triumphantly, continuing to cast spells. Water blades flew from his hands, precisely slicing the monsters' bodies.

The tidal fishmen were not to be outdone. They all cast their own water spells. Some summoned huge water balls and smashed them at the monsters; others condensed sharp water arrows and shot them at the monsters' vital points.

For a moment, the flanks of the monster group fell into chaos.

Meanwhile, Tang Yu took advantage of the monsters' distraction and led the merman spearmen in a fierce charge. "Fish scale formation, kill!"

The mermaid shield spearmen quickly formed a fish scale formation, with their shields tightly connected and intertwined like pieces of fish scales, forming a solid defense and attack formation.

It can not only effectively resist the attacks of monsters, but also thrust out spears from the gaps to counterattack at any time.

Tang Yu took the lead, the spear in his hand flashing with cold light, like a black lightning, rushing left and right among the monsters.

A blue light flickered from his spear, burning fiercely like a raging blue flame, with ancient runes faintly visible within. Tang Yu shouted loudly and thrust his spear forward. A powerful blue beam of light shot out from the tip of the spear.

In the beam of light, countless tiny streams of water were like nimble snakes, carrying terrifying power, and instantly pierced through the bodies of the monsters in front.

The monster that was hit let out a shrill scream, and its body was shattered by the powerful water flow, turning into a bloody mist and dissipating in the air.

Under Tang Yu's leadership, the merman shield spearmen worked closely together. They chanted spells in unison, and the spears in their hands burst into dazzling blue light.

They thrust their spears into the ground, and instantly cracks appeared on the ground, with torrents of water gushing out from the cracks.

These water streams quickly converged into huge water dragons, each of which was dozens of meters long. They pounced towards the group of monsters with their fangs and claws bared.

Wherever the water dragon went, the monsters were knocked to the ground by the powerful water flow, and some were directly swept into the water and cut into pieces by the sharp blades in the water flow.

Tang Yu led the mermaid shield spearmen to charge all the way and finally approached the camp.

However, the sight before him made his heart tighten—the camp was surrounded by a dense swarm of monsters, a dark mass that surged forward like an endless tide. The monsters' roars and growls echoed one after another, and the air was filled with a strong stench of decay.

But in a flash, Tang Yu saw a scene that excited him - the major armies of Canghai Camp were rushing from all directions and launching the most fierce attack on the tide of monsters besieging the camp.

The first thing Tang Yu saw was the Xuanbing Sea Lion tribe, with Shi Han and Shi Bing, father and son, rushing in the front in a majestic manner.

Shi Han held a huge ice axe in both hands, and the axe blade flashed with a cold light, as if it could freeze everything in the world.

Shi Bing held a huge ice hammer in his hand, which was engraved with mysterious runes. He hammered the nearby enemies crazily.
