Chapter 16

“Our new king! Long live the new king!”

A deafening shout broke the silence of the night, and then everyone followed, “Long live the new king!”

The voices shouting were mixed with shrieks and laughter. This was a grand banquet.

Although there were only a few old, weak, sick, and disabled people in the Naga Tribe, their enthusiasm could not be extinguished.

Just as everyone was celebrating, a restless voice suddenly came from outside the tribe.

“You guys are really lively here. You actually have a new king. Is your old king dead?”

The voice sounded very young, and it was filled with provocation and ridicule.

Instantly, everyone in the tribe was furious.

They looked over and found that it was a group of Murloc Tribe. They were wearing all kinds of strangely shaped scales, holding bone weapons or wooden clubs, and were sneering.

This made the people of the Naga Tribe even angrier, and they all protested, “What is your Murloc Tribe doing in our Naga Tribe?”

“That’s right, do you want to fight? Come on! Who’s afraid of who!”

“Hmph! Today is the day of birth of the new king! You’re simply courting death by coming here to cause trouble!”

Seeing the unyielding attitude of the Naga Tribe, the leader of the Murloc Tribe’s face darkened.

“We’re not interested in attacking your Naga Tribe today. We’re here to ask if you’ve seen the other group of murlocs.”

The team leader scanned the crowd and finally fixed his eyes on Long Tian.

Long Tian had transformed into his human form. He had a tail of an unknown race on his back, and his eyes were fixed on the leader.

[Name: Murky]

[Specie: Murloc-Whale Shark]

[Gender: Male]

[Energy: B]

[Speed: S in water, C on land]

[Physical Attack: B]

[Physical Defense: B+]

[Magic Attack: C]

[Magic Defense: A]

[Skills: Seeking Formula]

Long Tian couldn’t help but chuckle in his heart as he looked at Murky. This guy wasn’t even as good as Chu Bo’er Ben.

However, this was good too. If they were too strong, it would not be easy to deal with the current situation. They still had to go to the Tigermen Tribe to save people.

“No one here has seen your so-called murloc group. Please leave now.”

Medusa had already passed through the crowd and arrived in front of Murky. Her tone was cold and unquestionable.

Murky snorted coldly.

“Don’t talk nonsense. I used my ability to smell the blood of the murlocs. It’s the strongest in your tribe, and you say no one in your tribe has seen them? Who are you trying to fool?”

As he spoke, Murky snatched a tree branch from his companion behind him. He pointed at Long Tian, who was beside Medusa, and continued, “I ask about the smell of our murloc blood on your so-called new king of the Nagas. We’re going to take him away now, so you’d better cooperate!”

These words seemed to have exploded within the Naga Tribe. Immediately, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and began to curse.

“How can we hand over our new king to you so easily?”

“That’s right. You don’t have any evidence. Who knows if it’s true based on the smell you mentioned?”

“That’s right, maybe it’s your own Murloc Race who’s deliberately framing us?”

As they spoke, everyone from the Naga Tribe stood in front of Murky.

Their intentions were clear. They would never hand Long Tian over to the murlocs.

Long Tian was feeling a little embarrassed. After all, he was the one who killed Chu Bo’er Ben and the other murloc.

However, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with it, because those guys wanted to catch him and make him into soup. If it wasn’t for the system, the dragon would probably be gone by now.

Medusa’s reaction was even more intense. She had already held the spear in her hand horizontally in front of her.

“The new king of our Naga Tribe, so what if he kills your Murloc Race? There’s no way you’ll be able to take him away from us today!”

Upon hearing Medusa’s words, an adjutant beside Murky quietly came up and said, “Leader, what should we do now? Do you want to report back?”

Murky shook his head after hearing this. He then narrowed his eyes and stared at Medusa and the Naga beside her.

“What are you thinking? Can’t you see that this is a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people? We’ll kill them and bring that guy back as an explanation, then we’ll be rich!”

Murky’s eyes were shining. He could not help but gulp at the thought of obtaining a large amount of treasure. His entire body was trembling.

Murky quickly pointed his trident at the Naga Tribe.

“Very good. This is your Naga Tribe refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit! Murloc Race, attack! Kill this group of naga and take away their new king!”

Murky gave the order, and the dozens of murloc behind him immediately brandished their tridents and charged toward the naga.

“Protect the new king!”

The nagas roared and charged at the murlocs. In an instant, the two groups of people were engaged in battle.

At this moment, Long Tian had no intention of making a move at all.

Even Murky, who was leading the group, was only around B-Rank. Now, he wanted to see how much stronger the Naga Tribe would become after eating his Spiritual Rice.

Of course, Long Tian did not dare to let his guard down. He would not sit still and wait for death if he encountered any danger.

On the battlefield, Murky was the first to attack, while the murloc soldiers he brought with him attacked the Nagas in a frenzy.

However, even the old, weak, sick, and disabled members of the Naga Tribe had become more powerful. They were not people that the murlocs could easily injure.

In the beginning, the two sides were evenly matched, and that was because the murlocs had brought twice as many people as the Naga Tribe.

But gradually, Murky began to feel that things were getting worse.

He had brought a lot of people with him, but why were the murlocs around him getting fewer and fewer?

There were only forty to fifty murloc soldiers left out of the original one hundred and twenty. From the looks of it, the battle would be lost once they had exhausted all the murloc.

If he were to die here, wouldn’t he suffer a huge loss?

At the thought of this, Murky quickly shouted, “Retreat! Hurry up and retreat!”

After his loud shout, all the murloc soldiers were stunned. Then they turned around and fled, not caring about the people from the Naga Tribe who were chasing after them.

At this moment, Murky finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that he had reacted quickly.

But at that moment, Medusa appeared in front of Murky in an instant.

“Petrification!”

Medusa’s lips curled into a cold smile. She instantly used her skill, and Murky was immediately petrified.
