I traveled through time and space and became the Archbishop of Stormwind!

The meeting room in Nanhai Town Hall was packed with townspeople and militiamen.

Everyone was discussing how to deal with the murlocs, but now the air is filled with chaos.

Mayor Marcus stood at the front and tried to maintain order, but people were clearly very excited.

Everyone discussed various options, but there was still no clear solution.

"We should send more people on patrol!" a militiaman suggested loudly.

"This is useless. There are too many murlocs! Our patrolling guards are in greater danger!" another person retorted.

"Maybe we could set some bear traps?"

"A trap? Do you think the merman would be stupid enough to jump into it?" The voice of objection sounded again.

Alvin and Calpurnia were also invited to sit aside and listened patiently to the discussion, but he soon realized that this would lead to no results.

The meeting had been going on for several hours, but there was still no viable solution.

At first, Alvin could still patiently translate the content of the meeting to Caponia, but as the words became more and more heated, he finally gave up translating and just shook his head helplessly.

Alvin's mind began to wander, and he knew he had to take more direct action.

Finally, Alvin couldn't stand it anymore and stood up, interrupting everyone's argument.

"Everyone, we'll never find a solution if we keep going like this. How about this? I'll go explore the murloc cave myself and find out what these guys are up to!"

The conference room suddenly became silent, and everyone looked at Alvin.

Marcus frowned. "Mr. Priest, this is too dangerous. Can we just go to the murloc's lair? Our scouts have been there before, but they were too far away to move forward. There are simply too many of them. Although the attack power of one or two murlocs is very low, when hundreds or even thousands of murlocs are crowded together, believe me, you don't want to see this scene!"

"I understand, but we can't continue to do nothing. Only by understanding the murloc's motives can we find a real solution."

Alvin shook his head.

"Also, I believe that although murlocs are savage by nature, they are not completely without intelligence. Since everyone has been keeping to themselves all this time, why would they suddenly attack the town like crazy? Don't you want to know the reason?"

Everyone whispered to each other, and soon Mayor Marcus stood up.

"I understand the problem you're talking about, but I have to consider your safety. I believe that His Majesty the King would not want to see a rising star in Lordaeron suffer in Southshore. If you insist on going, please allow me to form a guard to accompany you."

Mayor Marcus spoke firmly.

"Also, you must follow my instructions. If there is any danger, we will immediately cover your retreat."

Alvin looked at the mayor's determined eyes and nodded helplessly.

"Well, as you wish, we will be careful."

Soon, Mayor Marcus assembled a team of five elite guards to escort Alvin, Caponia and Akalitraza to the murloc's lair.

Although the three of them didn't need any guards at all, Alvin thought.

There is the tank Alkaritasza, the mage Caponia, and a priest himself, a standard warrior-mage-priest combination. It is hard to say who will protect whom at that time.

But when he looked at Mayor Marcus and the guards, who were wearing sturdy armor and holding sharp weapons, all with serious expressions, ready to meet any challenge, he didn't want to say anything that would go against their good intentions.

"We headed south along the coast,"

Mayor Marcus instructed.

"My scouts told me that the murloc's lair is just south of the coastline. Everyone, please stay alert. These fishy guys may appear at any time."

Alvin nodded and set off with the team.

The sea breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of salty taste, and the sun shines on the sea, making the waves sparkle like a golden ocean.

However, as they gradually approached the merman's lair, they discovered something strange: there was not a single merman on the endless beach!

"The Murloc's defense is very lax!"

Mayor Marcus whispered, his brow furrowed.

"You could even say there weren't any murlocs defending the beach at all! The murlocs, who were so densely packed together and so disgusting to behold, have vanished from the beach!"

Caponia looked around and indeed did not see a single murloc. When she set sail from Sunsail Hill, she had seen murlocs on the distant beaches of Quel'Thalas from afar on the ship.

"Strange, don't murlocs usually hang out on the beach? Why is there no one here now?"

Caponia said warily, "Could this be a trap? Alvin, we must be careful!"

As she spoke, she tightened her grip on the staff in her hand.

Alvin agreed and asked everyone to hold their weapons tightly and remain highly alert.

They continued along the coastline, and the silence was unsettling.

The beach, which should have been filled with the noisy sounds of murlocs, now only has the sound of waves crashing against rocks.

"Everyone be careful,"

Mayor Marcus warned in a low voice, "This situation is extremely abnormal."

As the team advanced, the sky grew darker and darker, and the guards raised their torches to illuminate the road ahead.

They didn't know how far they walked, but when the sun had almost completely set, they finally saw the murloc's lair in the distance.

It was a desolate mudflat, and the air was filled with a fishy smell.

There are some wooden sticks stuck in the ground on the mudflats, and some simple little houses are built on the sticks. The little houses are built with rough wood and seaweed, and look dilapidated. They are arranged in a disorderly manner, as if they will be washed away by the waves at any time.

Behind these small houses is a huge cave.

At the entrance of the cave was a fish skeleton with its mouth wide open. The fish skeleton looked like a huge monster with its ferocious mouth open and sharp teeth exposed.

The fish bone's eye sockets are deep, as if they have become windows above the cave entrance, or as if the fish monster is silently watching the visitors, which is chilling.

The ground around the cave was littered with the remains of various marine organisms, mixed with seaweed and shellfish, creating a chaotic scene.

Everyone arrived in front of the cave without any hindrance. At this time, Alvin felt a strong sense of unease.

He took the torch from the guard and shone it into the cave. It was pitch black, with a fishy smell and faint sounds coming from time to time.

He gestured to everyone, indicating that he would walk in front. Everyone walked into the cave carefully. The shadow of the fish bones loomed over them, as if a monster would wake up at any time.
