Me! The Strongest Alchemist Novel! - Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Murloc’s Fury
“How can there be nine big Murloc that are intermediate Level 5 and above?” Mas’ brows were tightly furrowed. The matter had become somewhat serious.
Although he already felt that the bounty in the Trun Kingdom this time was not so straightforward before coming to Salt Lake, he originally thought that there was a problem with the Murloc itself, but who would have thought that there were actually nine intermediate Level 5 Murlocs!
Seeing the nine big Murlocs charging towards the shore aggressively, Mas did not even think and immediately jumped onto the Red Crystal Gargoyle, preparing to flee. What a joke, even an advanced Level 6 professional might not be able to deal with them!
“Walter, Harry, come up quickly!” Mas urged the two stunned people on the ground.
The two of them regained their senses after being shouted at by Mas. They hurriedly jumped up and grabbed one of the feet of the Red Crystal Gargoyle, following it into the sky.
“Boss, something is wrong!”
“Generally speaking, the contents of the bounty will not be wrong. The bounty only mentioned one Murloc, yet now nine Murlocs have appeared in succession. I’m afraid there’s something fishy about this matter!” Walter said in a low voice as he looked at the Murloc who kept swimming ashore.
.
“You’re right, Walter. That’s what I thought, too. Either there’s something wrong with Trun Kingdom’s intelligence, or it’s a deliberate lie to hide some truth. I think there’s a high chance it’s the latter!” Mas nodded.
At the side of the Salt Lake, as the nine big Murlocs landed one after another, the mercenaries who were gathered together with the Red Leopard Mercenary Group felt a huge crisis.
Even though the big Murlocs were demi-humans, their intelligence was much higher than normal fishes. They had the intelligence of demi-humans and the body of the elves, causing their level of danger to increase exponentially.
Their method of attack was not complicated. On the contrary, it was very simple. They used their powerful claws and teeth that were sharp enough to shatter iron to engage in close combat.
As demi-humans, the big Murlocs did not have feet. Their lower bodies were fins but when they moved on land, their speed was not slow at all.
Its strength was not weaker than Naga, who was also a high-level creature of the Elf Tribe.
On the shore of Salt Lake, a bloody massacre against humans began.
200 mercenaries were unable to fight back against the nine advanced Level 5 big Murlocs and were utterly defeated.
This was because none of the mercenaries had the strength of a Level 5. They were simply unable to directly confront the Level 5 demonic creature.
Initially, these mercenaries were the same as Mas and the others. After seeing the bounty notice, they thought that there was only one level 5 big Murloc, but now there were nine big Murlocs opposite them. In front of absolute strength, they could not even have the heart to resist.
Mas did not make a move either. Instead, he hid hundreds of meters in the sky and watched.
He was still waiting. Everything was too abnormal. In a small Salt Lake, there were nine intermediate Level 5 and above monsters gathered.
Moreover, they seemed to have been specially drawn here to die.
“Boss, as an elf, I’m very responsible to tell you that there might be a leader of the Big Fish in this Salt Lake!” Walter said in fear.
“Leader of the big Murlocs?” Mas was slightly puzzled.
“Boss, although big Murlocs are also a branch of the elven race, they are violent by nature and are disliked by other races in the elven race, so they often pile up together. However, under normal circumstances, there would definitely not be more than five big Murlocs, and it’s even more common to see one big Murloc!
But for such a situation to occur, there is only one explanation. That is, there is a leader of the Murlocs whose strength is above Level 6 and above. These Murlocs are similar to its people. They gathered together and formed a demi-human tribe! ”
“You know so many secrets?” Mas looked at Walter in surprise.
“That’s what my father told me when I was a kid.” Walter scratched his head sheepishly at that.
“If there really is a leader of a big Murloc above Level 6 hidden in that calm lake, I’m afraid that the bounty offered by the Trun Kingdom is really up to no good. Indeed, there’s no such thing as having something fall into your lap!” Mas thought to himself.
If the leader of the big Murloc really appeared, then the aim of the Trun Kingdom’s bounty was very clear. They deliberately distorted the truth, not to capture ordinary Level 5 big Murloc, but the leader of the big Murloc who was at a level above Level 6.
The leader of the big Murloc was a magical beast above an intermediate Level 6, and he was extremely powerful. His scales were invulnerable to swords and spears, and he could withstand most water magic. Especially now that he was hiding in the lake, even if a Level 7 Mythical expert came, it would probably be useless.
Mas stood on the Red Crystal Gargoyle and watched the massacre below expressionlessly.
More and more mercenaries died. Even the clear blue lake water turned red.
In this battle, although the nine big Murlocs were also injured, this kind of injury was not fatal to them. Instead, it stimulated their beast nature and they charged towards the mercenaries without any regard for their lives.
At this moment, Mas saw a legion wearing silver-white alchemy armor not far away. They were holding a giant shield in their left hand and carrying several spears on their backs.
“This is the Spear Legion of the Trun Kingdom!” Harry said in shock.
“As expected, the bounty of the Trun Kingdom is a cake trap!” Mas looked at the army that was rushing over from afar and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
The Spear Legion of the Trun Kingdom was the Trun Kingdom’s most elite ace troop. It was a powerful troop that was both near and far.
There were a total of four squads in the Spear Legion. One squad had 250 people, and four squads had 1,000 people.
With the absolute advantage in numbers, the Spear Legion was more than enough to deal with these Level 5 Murlocs.
“Boss, it seems that the Trun Kingdom is treating us as cannon fodder.” Walter looked at the troops rushing over, still in shock.
Mas responded and did not continue speaking.
To be honest, the Trun Kingdom’s method of finding cannon fodder was a little strange. They used a high bounty to attract others and this group of people was also willing to bite this “fragrant bait”.
However, in the end, it was still uncertain who would become the biggest winner!
Mas let the Red Crystal Gargoyle continue to fly higher into the sky, then summoned two other Red Crystal Gargoyles from his alchemy space and let Walter and Harry take one each.
The corpses of these nine big Murlocs were the corpses of nine precious five-star magical beasts. These were rare alchemy materials.
Moreover, there was definitely a Level 6 big Murloc leader in this Salt Lake!
The other party’s corpse was an existence at the advanced Level 6 or even early-stage Level 7!
Furthermore, the Trun Kingdom had attracted cannon fodder to deal with the big Murloc in Salt Lake. It was obvious that their goal was not as simple as exterminating the big Murloc. They must have had other goals!
