60: Chapter 8 Who should I Fear, I’m the Dragon Priest_1
60 -8 Who should I Fear, I’m the Dragon Priest_1
The powerful collision sounds were incessant.
The wooden hull of the ship groaned underwater.
Liu Zhenhan and Helen saw more than a dozen panda sailors raising their enormous fishing spears, aiming at the water and cursing continuously.
In the cabin, several children who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen, their heads covered by white straw hats, were peeking out while clinging to the door frame.
Some of the panda sailors waved at them to go back inside the cabin.
“I have a very bad feeling about this.” Liu Zhenhan told Helen.
Helen shrugged off his hand and walked directly to the railing.
She stretched her neck to take a look below and nearly fell over.
Beneath the water’s surface, innumerable tiger heads emerged.
With their hanging eyebrows and white eyes, each one was marked with a character for “king” on their forehead.
If not tiger shark, then who?
Liu Zhenhan’s eyes were also wide open in shock.
He had encountered these ferocious tiger sharks with their teeth exposed before, but they couldn’t see clearly due to the dim lights last night.
It was broad daylight now, and Liu Zhenhan finally saw just how horrifying the sharp fangs of these tiger sharks were.
They lined up like daggers, and their open throats revealed nothing but darkness, reflecting the sunlight.
The sheer number of sharks had increased at least fivefold from yesterday, making the situation even more murderous and hair-raising.
“The main event is about to start.” Liu Zhenhan said with a cold smile.
“Warriors of the Seia Sea Clan, we are but ordinary travellers.
The covenant that permits us to traverse the seven seas was established by our ancestors and yours.
Is a covenant sworn before the highest gods and our own conscience just empty words?” The old man Xu said coldly, staring at the water.
His voice was steady, carrying a hint of irresistible firmness, like iron.
The sea water “plashed” and split apart as several Goblin Magic Shark Warriors, treading their mounts, emerged from the azure water.
At their appearance, all the Tigerhead Sharks immediately ceased their agitation, quiet as jellyfish.
A shark knight didn’t say a word, but disdained to glance at everyone on the ship.
He took off a large conch shell from his waist and started to blow it.
The clamor of the tidal waves was drowned by the resonating sound of the horn.
At what seemed to be a command, all the Tigerhead Sharks moved their dorsal fins and swam to one side.
A gigantic, terrifying shadow slowly emerged from the blank sea water in front of the vessel.
“Bang~~” A jet of water surged from under the sea, crashing down like an umbrella and spraying the deck with splashes of water.
A gigantic terrifying silhouette appeared above the sea surface.
It was a knight riding atop an unknown gigantic fish.
His proud expression drew all gazes.
The fish beneath him was at least a dozen meters long but still remained underneath the sea’s surface due to the colossal form of the knight.
The knight’s body seemed like it was from legends of giants; even though he was half sitting and half submerged into the water, he already stood more than three meters tall.
His body was like a mountain, an entire ridge.
It was as if the creator had concentrated all the vigor of a man and strong muscles into his body.
He was wearing an armor made from the bright red shells of lobsters and sewn with seaweed, and a pair of eyes were awash with the glow of destruction.
Wherever this glow swept across, even the sea seemed to stop its frothing.
On the chest part of the giant’s armor, a coat of arms in the shape of a shield was carved using sharp tools, surrounded by deer horn coral, and in the middle was a huge Sea God weapon—the trident and crown.
Seawater cascaded down his armor.
He was bald and his green scalp gleamed under the sun’s glow, and two long whiskers slung from his lips.
“Banilou Warrior!” Helen involuntarily cried out and then immediately covered her mouth.
No wonder he seemed to possess the power to destroy the sky and earth, turns out he was from the strongest Banilou Tribe amongst the Sea Clan, the Backward-blow whale warriors.
Liu Zhenhan also realized.
The position of the Banilou warrior in the Sea Clan was akin to the Orephin Mountain Elephant Warrior among the Beamon or the sub-dragon knights among the humans, or like the Colossal Giant in the realm of giants.
They were the warriors at the very top, the invincible existence.
It was a result of the gods’ total favoritism when creating the world.
All the Banilou warriors were on the guard detail for the royal family at the seabed.
That was why they wore a crown on the emblem on their chest.
The presence of a Banilou warrior indicated the inevitable appearance of the royal family of the sea.
Liu Zhenhan quietly glanced around.
The proud expression on Old Xu’s face had instantly disappeared, replaced by an inexplicable horror.
Liu Zhenhan then looked at the Clam Girl, Ning Yu, who was still calm.
This discovery made Liu Zhenhan feel a bit dejected.
He had thought that his psychological quality should be the best, but the appearance of the Clam Girl had struck a blow to his pride.
“My lord!” The several Magic Shark Warriors saluted the Banilou warrior in unison.
“Small and fragile creatures, declare yourselves!” The Banilou warrior’s voice resembled thunder rolling in the storm.
His vocal chords gave the impression of a gigantic war drum, and his eyes looked like the king of beasts scanning over ants.
“We are the descendants of travelers from the Far East continent a thousand years ago, our ship’s bow bears the emblem of Cardiel and a ram as a mark.” replied Ferguson Xu respectfully.
“The pact we’ve formed, Sea Clan has not forgotten.
Having granted you the freedom to walk our skies, why did you decide to hunt our brethren the day before yesterday?” asked the Banilou Warrior sternly.
“If that’s the case, I, Louis Philippe Figo, the Supreme Commander of the Seia National Guard and hereditary viscount of the Banilou Tribe, will help you humble beings comprehend the fury that comes from the sea!
A rage potent enough to melt an alliance as ancient as Mount Tamerlarya.”
“Please listen to me, sir!” started Ferguson Xu.
“We held no intention to slaughter the sea creatures.
Honestly, it happened when an arrowfish pierced through our ship while swimming at high speed.
By the time we removed it from the ship, it had already damaged its head severely, and had bled profusely.
We couldn’t bear to see it suffer any further and hence, decided to euthanize it.
Look, our ship had just been repaired and anchored here from today.”
“So, we’re not at fault.” Liu Zhenhan whispered, subtly winking at Helen.
“Silence!” roared the Banilou Warrior, infuriated.
“Each of our arrowfish is a long-distance weapon for the kingdom, each one painstakingly trained.
How will you compensate us?”
“Sir!” The Clam Girl, Ning Yu, couldn’t help but interject.
“The demeanor of nobility isn’t about oppressing the weak.
If you insist on distorting the truth, then we can’t do anything about it.”
The panda sailors aboard the ship all picked up their fishing forks, their faces full of suppressed anger, directed at the Banilou Warrior in the water.
“Ignorant creatures of the Far East!
Standing before a formidable foe, you fail to show respect.
This ignorance of yours could scatter your souls across our azure seas!” With a laugh that rang with fury, the Banilou Warrior reached for a huge weapon lodged under the coral saddle—a rusted iron anchor.
The whale warrior holding the giant iron anchor in his hand like a toy said, “The millennium-old pact, it’s time to put an end to it.
I will teach you a lesson, show you the invincible strength of the Sea Clan.”
Everyone’s eyes were fixated on the iron anchor, undoubtedly salvaged from a giant sunken ship.
Its hooked tip formed a strange arc, covered from top to bottom with red rust.
Fear was visible in everyone’s eyes, impossible to hide.
Except for Liu Zhenhan.
He was wondering if his strength, amplified by the dragon power he acquired through the curse, could withstand this whale warrior.
The thought filled him with an explosive impulse.
A pair of delicate hands tightened around his.
There was a ripple in the sea again, and the imposing Mermaid Princess, riding her majestic black seahorse, once again appeared before everyone.
“Shut up, Figo!” The Mermaid Princess was as haughty as ever.
The Banilou warrior immediately bowed his enormous head.
“People of the Far East Continent!” Mermaid Princess Avril raised her head, looking at Ferguson Xu indifferently, “You carry the missions of peace, but that should not be at the expense of our living environment.
We have no intention of breaking the covenant laid down by our ancestors.
That is an oath sworn to the supreme sea god.
To this day, the reputation of the Cardiel tribe’s alligator warrior, which your boat previously belonged to, is still engraved on the cliff of the Sea Clan.
However, we cannot let this mean arrowfish murder go unpunished.
I have spent three precious days searching for you amidst the vast ocean.
The appearance of a Mermaid Princess represents the patience of our Sea Clan and respect for the covenant.
Now, if only you hand over two crew members to apologize, and promise not to make such foolish mistakes again, I, on behalf of the royal family of the seabed, will guarantee to drop this matter.”
Liu Zhenhan tried to pull back upon seeing her, but it was too late.
His eyes met the Mermaid Princess’ eyes.
Liu Zhenhan’s head began to tingle and wondered how he could be so unlucky.
The Mermaid Princess’s eyes lit up, and a light smile spread on her face like a coral flower in the seabed.
“Them.
Is that acceptable?” The Mermaid Princess pointed her slender, Phoenix flower juice-covered fingernail at Liu Zhenhan and Helen, her smile filled with sinister delight.
There was silence on Ferguson Xu’s part.
“Bullshit!” Liu Zhenhan’s blood rose to his head, and he cursed.
**
Updated a chapter yesterday, if any fellow reader missed it.
I admit I have quite a few typographical errors, sweat.
My culture is relatively low, some tribal English names are hard to apply, such as crocodile and whale, and makes Cardiel and Banilou sound ridiculous.
As for those readers who do not enjoy my subtle integration of ancient legends, I apologize.
I didn’t do a good job.
