Chapter 1195: Drawn by corruption (3)
With the way that they turned to look at the royal guard, there was no need to guess what was about to happen.
The royal guard couldn't help moving back when he saw all of these corrupted sea creatures turn to look in his direction.
He looked like he wanted to go back to the group, but he didn't get to go far before the corrupted sea creatures started moving. It wasn't all of the corrupted sea creatures that moved, just the nearby corrupted sea creatures.
With the way that they moved in a group, it seemed like they wanted to surround him and cut off his path of escape.
It seemed like they finally took him as a threat and wanted to deal with this threat.
The royal guard was a well trained member of the royal guard and had good combat skills, so he did what he could against this group of corrupted sea creatures.
The trident in his hand swept out at the corrupted sea creatures that came towards him, it was just that it didn't seem to have any effect. No matter how he cut them up, it seemed like the corrupted sea creatures just kept reforming.
It was as if there was nothing that he could do to the corrupted sea creatures that could actually hurt them.
Since he wasn't able to destroy the corrupted sea creatures, he was actually being pushed back by the corrupted sea creatures. They were coming closer and closer and the royal guard had no choice but to move back.
It seemed that it was only a matter of time before he was taken down by the corrupted sea creatures.
That was until there were several more tridents that suddenly swept out.
These tridents made quick work of the corrupted sea creatures, cutting them into pieces that were too small to reform quickly. That created a gap for the royal guards that came out to help to pull the one that was stuck back to the group.
After pulling him back, the leader of the royal guards flashed a look at him that seemed to be saying, "You'll get it later."
The royal guard had an awkward look on his face, but he knew that it was his mistake and he accepted this.
After all, to even receive this punishment, they had to get out of this place first.
Puffer finally made a move after watching the corrupted sea creatures for a while.
She threw her potion out at them and it formed ice that froze the parts where they had been
cut.
It seemed at first that the ice that formed on the surface of these cuts were enough to keep the corruption energy from spreading out, but that soon changed.
"Crack!"
That was the sound of the ice cracking.
The ice that Puffer had created to stop the corrupted sea creatures from recovering was shattered when the dark tendrils broke through. It seemed like the dark tendrils were able to drill through the layer of ice covering it and were reaching towards the other tendrils that had appeared.
The ice wasn't strong enough to stop them.
But at the very least, it seemed like the ice was enough to delay their healing a bit which gave the royal guards time to catch their breath.
The bad news was that once they were able to catch their breath, the attention of more of the corrupted sea creatures were drawn.
It was as if they noticed that their current companions weren't enough to take care of these merman that were here, so they were planning on fighting together.
But what I noticed was that the ice had actually temporarily stopped the tendrils that came
from the parts of the corrupted sea creatures.
That was more than enough of a clue for me.
I turned to the Merman King and said, "Send out the streams of water at the ones that they cut
down."
The Merman King was surprised to hear this, but he gave a nod before he raised his trident.
