"Alpha is an average guy, but even he managed to stumble upon the prestigious Crimson Queen. Unbelievable, but it's true."
Before Thorne could finish speaking, a breath of red gold dragon breath came from Alexrilla. He quickly shut his mouth and became serious.
Although Thorne's words were a bit arrogant, he had fought with Alexrilla in the void of the star realms before. The strength of this mutated ancient red dragon should not be underestimated and must be taken very seriously.
A huge, simple black and blue shield appeared in front of Thorne, resisting the terrifying red gold dragon breath that could melt all things.
The two sides started fighting again.
They fought all the way from the center of the main continent of Tal to the boundless ancient forest of poisonous miasma in the east. Soon, the ancient forest of poisonous miasma — a place almost impossible for living creatures to enter — ignited with raging flames.
This was the rage and madness of the Crimson Mother!
Dramatic changes occurred one after another, leaving the Crimson Nest and the legendary strongmen of the Alliance Army dumbfounded.
The Crimson Mother arrived.
Then the Dark Frost Giant Lord from the Abyss also came. It seemed he had a deep entanglement with the Crimson Mother from before and had been holding back for a long time, now finally seizing the opportunity.
"Where's that guy Alpha?"
Suddenly, a legendary powerhouse spoke up, drawing everyone's attention back from the two high-level legendary powerhouses.
Yeah, where's Alpha? This guy was the mastermind behind introducing the Dark Frost Giant Lord to the Tal plane.
After everyone searched, they discovered that this guy had quietly slipped away at some point.
"Sure enough, we shouldn't have trusted that guy! He's actually engaging in such a conspiracy behind our backs!" The legendary unicorn from the Alliance camp couldn't help but feel a little angry.
"You can't say that. If Alpha hadn't attracted the Dark Frost Giant Lord, we might have had no choice but to escape — and we might not even have managed to escape."
The one who spoke was the Gray Dwarf King of the Dwarf Iron Castle. When the legendary unicorn saw the Gray Dwarf King speaking, he wanted to refute, but in the end, he snorted and said nothing.
First, after the death of the Frost Giant King, the King of the Dwarf Iron Castle is now the top strongman in the Alliance Army. The third-level dwarf king's right to speak is not something that a legendary first-level unicorn can refute.
Second, the actual situation was indeed the same.
If Alpha hadn't attracted the Abyss Giant Lord, this war might already have ended. They belonged to the side that would have been terminated.
Now, with the arrival of the Abyss Giant Lord, although the final result may be more cruel and serious than when the Crimson Mother ruled the Tal Continent, there is at least a glimmer of hope.
If the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord both lose, the future direction of the Tal Plane may return to its previous track.
At this time, the legendary strongmen of the Alliance Army were silently praying for this outcome.
Otherwise, if either side wins, it will be a disaster for them.
After witnessing the incomparably terrifying strength of the two high-level legends—even after they proclaimed themselves to the fifth level—the legendary warriors of the Alliance Army only felt powerless and chilled in their hearts, unable to raise any motivation to resist.
Whether they are fifth-level legends or high-level legends, they are all peak powerhouses who can easily obliterate their entire existence.
"But didn't the Dark Frost Giant Lord just say that the Crimson Mother seems to have been poisoned by some Mora poison?" Elisa, Queen of the Prairie Elves, frowned slightly, feeling a little worried.
The expressions of the legendary strongmen of the Alliance Army present were all different.
If the Crimson Mother was defeated and the Dark Frost Giant Lord had won, everyone could not help but feel chills in their hearts.
The Crimson Mother dominates the continent, and the most that many races can do is surrender. Even with the laziness of the giant dragon, the so-called management is probably very loose.
But if the Dark Frost Giant Lord wins, this guy will not think about the "boring game" of dominating the continent but will definitely think about opening the door of the Abyss, leading countless demon armies to invade Tal, and letting the power of the Abyss infiltrate Tal.
Finally, he would sink the material plane of Tal into the Abyss to obtain the reward of the Will of the Abyss.
This is the common goal that all Pit Lords strive for.
It is also the common understanding of the Abyss Lords among all races in the star worlds.
As the fierce battle between the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord lengthened, almost all the legendary powerful men in the Tal Plane became aware of it.
The deep sea, the subcontinent, some old monsters hidden in the main continent, and the unknown low-key strongmen on the islands in the sea all focused their attention on the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord.
The two strongmen fought all the way, leaving the lands devastated and all life in ruins.
Whether it is the Crimson Mother or the Dark Frost Giant Lord, they are both strongmen who do not care about ant-like creatures.
Even Lords like the Dark Frost Giant are very happy to slaughter the weak.
During the battle, the Dark Frost Giant Lord would, from time to time, directly devour the souls of the creatures he killed.
If one is not a believer in the gods and cannot be led into the Kingdom of God at the moment of death, they will be devoured by the Dark Frost Giants.
In fact, with the strength and means of the Dark Frost Giant Lord, he has been able to 'intercept' the souls of even those believers.
But considering that this would offend a large number of gods, he restrained himself slightly.
On the first day of the battle between the two peak warriors, the boundless ancient forest of poisonous miasma in the east of the main continent was destroyed by the power of blazing golden flames and fallen frost, covering an area of tens of millions of square kilometers.
On the second day, the two strongmen reached the sea area under the jurisdiction of the Sea People Empire.
---
In the deep sea, hundreds of thousands of meters deep, a magnificent undersea city was located.
The emperor of the Sea People clan, a peak Sea People warrior whose strength had reached the legendary fourth level, listened to the reports from his subjects with an ugly expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, the tidal waters to the west were affected by the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord. Tens of thousands of the slave clan's golden-armored monster shrimps were killed and injured. The Sea People city there suffered a devastating blow, killing and injuring millions of Sea People."
"If this continues and the battle approaches the capital of our Deep Sea Empire…" the Sea People ministers were worried.
Many of these Sea People ministers were legendary powerhouses, even those in the second and third levels of legend.
But in the face of the terrifying power revealed by the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord, both the legendary first level and the legendary third level were nothing more than ants.
Run or die.
Listening to the reports from the ministers below, the Sea Man Emperor 'Georgos' looked gloomy and spoke slowly, his tone cold,
"Leave the Deep Sea Imperial City and run away? This is impossible! If that doesn't work, then we will sacrifice to the Heart of the Abyss and summon its follower!"
Hearing that His Majesty was going to sacrifice to the Heart of the Abyss, the faces of the Hairen ministers below changed slightly, as if there were some taboos in it. After a moment of silence, one of the ministers worriedly said,
"Your Majesty, the Abyss Servant summoned through the Sacrifice to the Heart of the Abyss cannot be predicted. It's fine if we summon the Sea Pressure Bringer, whom we can still communicate with, but if we summon the Doom Bringer, then…"
The Heart of the Abyss, the ancient god of the deep sea, is also the god the Sea People believe in.
Under the command of the Heart of the Abyss are servants imbued with its power. Among them, the weaker servants possess the power of high-level legends, and the more powerful servants even reach god-like levels, and can be called the gods of the sea.
"It doesn't matter. The Abyss Servants generally don't stay in the material plane for too long and can't cause too much damage. Besides, this is just the worst-case scenario," said the Sea Man Emperor 'Georgos' slowly.
In fact, he was extremely afraid of the Heart of the Abyss's followers. The Hairen clan had not worshipped the Heart of the Abyss for nearly ten thousand years.
Just as the atmosphere in the hall grew heavy and oppressive—
"Report to Your Majesty, the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord are heading north!"
A round bead suddenly spoke, spreading news that made the Sea People Emperor and Sea People ministers look happy.
"Haha, the ones who should be troubled now are the group of mermaids and the Metallic Dragon Island!" the Sea Man Emperor 'Georgos' laughed loudly, sweeping away the previous gloom, his tone rather gloating.
There are three overlord empires in the deep sea: the Sea Man Empire, the Mermaid Empire, and the Naga Empire.
The total sea area occupied by the three deep sea empires reaches 70% of the sea area of the Tal Plane.
Of the remaining 30%, 10% is the sea area occupied by Metallic Dragon Island, and the last 20%, a resource-poor sea region, is free land for other hundreds of millions of Sea People.
The Sea People in the areas governed by the three empires are either those who have submitted to the empires or deep-sea people who have been enslaved by the three empires for generations.
---
To the north of the sea, beneath the waves, there is a huge imperial city made entirely of colorful corals and shells.
The Mermaid Queen, who has long wavy pink-blue hair and a gorgeous fish tail the same color as her hair, couldn't help laughing when she looked at the scene in the water mirror suspended above the hall.
In the main hall, the faces of the handsome and beautiful mermaids also froze slightly.
In the huge water mirror, a red-gold dragon that had grown to more than 300 meters in size after using its special ability, and a dark frost giant more than 100 meters tall—looking like a sky-reaching colossus—were fighting fiercely as they moved toward the waters under the jurisdiction of the Mermaid Empire.
With the speed of these two powerful beings, it might not take long for them to reach the sea border of the Mermaid Empire.
"Queen, how should we deal with this?"
Below, a mermaid elder asked worriedly.
Mermaid Queen 'Shashamil' rubbed her eyebrows, her bright eyes—brighter than pearls—filled with trouble.
"If they want to fight, just fight. Why are they fighting in the sea if they have nothing to do?" Shashamil had a headache.
Originally, the war on the main continent was just a matter of fun for the Mermaid Empire. After all, no matter how fierce the war on the mainland was, it would be difficult to affect the deep sea.
Besides, every once in a while, war breaks out on the mainland.
Even if there is no Crimson Mother, there will be other evil, powerful people. For example, there was once a terrifying undead archmage who set off a natural disaster of the undead that swept across the entire main continent. The noise caused by it at the time would not have been much smaller than it is now. But what?
The ending is that almost half of the life on the continent became extinct before the natural disaster of the undead was eliminated.
Then, as time passed, in just a few hundred years, the main continent became prosperous again, and a large number of life forms were once again active on the main continent.
Moreover, even without the Crimson Mother and the Archmage of the Necromancer, as time goes by and conflicts accumulate among the various races on the main continent, they will start wars, which will eventually turn into a war that sweeps the entire continent.
The three overlord empires of the deep sea, which have a long history and a profound foundation that spans tens of thousands of years, have witnessed so many rises and falls of the main continent that they are almost indifferent.
Compared with the main continent, which would encounter at least one major turmoil every hundreds or thousands of years, the three overlord empires in the deep sea were very stable.
This is related to the inheritance of the three deep-sea overlord empires and also has a lot to do with their heritage. Although they will fight each other, they will never go to the extent of annihilating each other.
Because as deep-sea races with a long heritage, they three know each other's heritage quite well.
The Heart of the Sea Abyss of the sea people.
An ancient giant snake of the Naga clan.
The Sea Gods of the Mermaid Empire.
The ethnic groups on the mainland actually believe in gods more or less, such as the elves, the frost giants, humans, jackals, kobolds, etc.
But why, faced with the disaster of the Crimson Mother, are they so powerless and unable to turn to the gods for help?
That's because, in the long history of the material plane of Tal, the gods and gods of the deep sea have frequently cast their sights, leaving a lot of marks on the world with the deep sea, and those elf gods, human gods, kobold gods, etc., naturally do not project power here. At most, they will naturally develop some believers. Therefore, whether it is humans or elves, it is basically impossible to seek help from gods.
There is also a sense of 'territory' between the gods.
In some planes, human gods have faith everywhere, and the gods of the deep sea and other racial gods naturally retreat, defaulting to that plane as a world dominated by humans.
In some planes, the faith of the orc gods flourishes, and that is the 'territory' where the power of the orc gods radiates, and the other gods naturally retreat.
The Tal plane is the place where the power of the deep sea gods radiates. Here, the miracles descended only exist among the sea people.
If the power of other gods comes down, then this is a 'provocation.'
Many times, this is how wars between gods are triggered.
The competition for 'territory' and 'belief' in each plane continues to increase, and the accumulated conflicts will eventually explode, and then the divine war is coming.
Mermaid Queen Shashamil sighed, put down the hand that was rubbing her brow, and said softly,
"Be prepared in advance to receive the divine envoy."
"Yes." Several mermaid elders retreated and went to make preparations.
After giving the order, Shashamil sat on the throne and meditated.
She was a little confused.
The Dark Frost Giant Lord is not sure, but the Crimson Mother Alexrilla, as a red dragon born in the Tal plane and a high-level legendary ancient red dragon, must know some of Tal's secrets and must know them. Why would she still do this if she knows the background of the Deep Sea Clan?
The Sea Tribe was not present during the initial fierce battle between the Crimson Mother and the Dark Frost Giant Lord, so naturally, they didn't know that the Crimson Mother Alexrilla had been poisoned by Mora.
If she knew it, Shashamil would probably suddenly realize it.
Because—Alexrilla has been fighting fiercely for so long, and her strength has been greatly reduced by Mora's poison, so she is naturally anxious.
In the Tal plane, there are only two directions to find the power to fight against the Dark Frost Giant Lord. One is the three overlord races of the deep sea, and the other is the Metallic Dragon Island.
The original plan of the Crimson Mother Alexrilla was to attract the background of the sea people, but she was probably afraid of the chaos and unpredictability in the heart of the deep sea and was afraid of attracting a more terrifying existence than the Dark Frost Giant Lord, so she decided on a temporary diversion to the mermaids.
---
In the North Sea, the foundation of the Mermaid Empire is the gods of the sea, and on the Metallic Dragon Island is Alexrilla's old enemy—the legendary fifth-level ancient golden dragon 'Ignis'.
North Sea.
The huge red-gold dragon was covered in blood, and its scales were broken.
The Dark Frost Giant Lord had a fierce look in his eyes. He held a simple spear in one hand and a simple giant shield in the other. When he attacked, he was fierce and fast. He could beat the red-gold dragon into chaos, and every time the red-gold dragon fought back angrily, the ancient giant shield shimmered with a black and blue luster, perfectly resisting the destructive attack of the red-gold dragon.
"Hmph, fearless struggle." Dark Frost Giant Lord Thorne sneered several times, and his mood gradually became happy.
