Chapter 571 The three clans prepare to withdraw their troops, Bubble charges forward alone.
Chapter 571 The three clans prepare to withdraw their troops, Bubble charges forward alone.
The mermaid general said, "Continue the investigation; I need more detailed information."
The reconnaissance team continued their reconnaissance.
Bubble, who was standing next to the general, felt uneasy upon hearing the news.
Even she knew that the mermaids' forces were smaller than the other side's and were no match for them.
Two hours later, the scout returned with the news.
The findings were similar to those last time.
At this time, the messengers of the seahorse and manatee tribes arrived at the mermaid tribe's camp.
Seahorses are similar to manatees and mermaids; they have no legs but have hands, and their heads resemble those of a horse or a bull.
They are taller and stronger than the mermaids.
Even so, they were classified as a humanoid race among the deep-sea demons.
The seahorse envoy, with his pursed lips, said, "General, the enemy is too strong. Even if we all attack together, we have no chance of winning."
Although we promised your queen that we would send troops to help.
However, faced with the risk of total annihilation, we are powerless to help.
General, please order a retreat.
"Preserve these ten thousand troops and return to protect your people."
The manatee envoy with the big head said in a muffled voice, "Yes, General, you should withdraw your troops."
If we charge in, all three races will suffer heavy losses.
The general was in a dilemma. "There are still more than 10,000 elite warriors of our tribe in the Coral Trench. Abandoning them will also cause heavy damage to our tribe."
The group started arguing.
Bubble clenched his fists and remained silent.
……
In the Coral Trench.
More than 13,000 mermaid warriors took turns defending against attacks from the shark and octopus tribes.
Fortunately, the entrance to the trench is relatively narrow, preventing a large-scale invasion.
Only the warriors of the mermaid clan have been able to hold out until now.
The sharks roared overhead.
"Mermaid warriors, surrender now! Surrender and you will not be killed."
"If you continue fighting like this, you might be able to hold out for a while, but you will be completely annihilated."
The general below shouted, "We will never surrender!"
Her Majesty the Queen will send people to rescue us.
The great shark above let out a loud laugh.
"Hahaha, don't you know how many soldiers your tribe has?"
Are those few troops enough to provide relief?
Your tribe should have received the news long ago; if they had sent someone to rescue you, they would have arrived by now.
Don't be silly, you've already been abandoned.
"If you surrender, I can guarantee I won't kill you."
The general of the mermaid race in the trench was speechless.
The tribe really doesn't have many soldiers left, not enough to provide reinforcements.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, giving them up is the right decision.
But they cannot surrender.
The shark clan's guarantee is unreliable.
Under the jungle law of the deep sea, no one's guarantee is as reliable as the harpoon in one's own hand.
The general said to his deputy behind him, "Blue Tiger, if I die in battle, you will be the supreme commander of this army."
Even if no one comes to our aid, we will keep fighting until we are all dead.
We must do our best to deplete the shark clan's strength and give our kin hope.
Of the three humanoid races that were wiped out, two were wiped out because they took a chance.
We cannot repeat the same mistakes; we must fight to the very last moment.
The general had a piece bitten off his tail and was seriously injured, which is why he was giving instructions to Blue Tiger.
The man known as the Tiger nodded, his eyes filled with tears.
Blue Tiger is Bubble's father.
He thought of the bubbles at home and felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, Bubble didn't become a warrior, which saved his life.
He flew into a rage when he failed the bubble trial.
After he lost his temper, he regretted it; he had never been so harsh on his daughter before.
He had been trying to find an opportunity to apologize to Bubble, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
It seems I'll never have the chance to apologize to my daughter.
He glanced at his wife and children behind him, then gripped the steel fork in his hand tightly.
No matter how you look at it, he was determined to lead his people in a fight to the death.
……
The general on the support side is still negotiating with the envoys of the manatee and seahorse tribes.
The general is already inclined to compromise.
Ten centurions also joined the discussion.
In the end, everyone unanimously decided to withdraw the troops and preserve their strength to protect their people.
Upon hearing this news, Bubble, who had been spinning her fists so hard they were cracking, finally snapped.
She shouted at everyone, "No, no!"
Glistening tears rolled down Bubble's face.
Mermaids' tears are quite special; they can still be seen even underwater.
All the generals were shocked, and they all looked at Bubble.
The general shouted angrily, "Bubble, what are you yelling about?"
"Can you simply say no to the decisions made by the generals?"
Bubble cried and said, "How can we abandon the warriors who fight for our people?"
"Did Her Majesty send you out just to take a look and leave?"
Bubble let out a loud shout, attracting a lot of people.
Bubble turned around and said, "You can go back if you want."
My family is over there; I'm going to rescue them.
Bubble left after saying that.
The general shouted from behind, "Don't go over there, you'll die!"
Bubble shouted without turning her head: "Warriors of the mermaid race are not afraid of death."
Even if I die, I want to die with my family.
The bubble accelerated forward.
While on the road.
Bubble thought of her mother's meticulous care for her. Because of her poor health, her mother always saved the best food for her.
When I felt wronged, my mother would always hold me in her arms and comfort me.
When I was in school, my older siblings would wait for me to walk home together after school because they were afraid I would be bullied.
Although my father was a bit strict, he loved me very much.
Many of the good things we ate were obtained by my father from other people's homes.
Father always told Mother that Bubble was not in good health and that we should give Bubble some good nutrition.
He was scolded by his father for failing his trial.
Bubble overheard her father saying to her mother, "Oh, I shouldn't have scolded Bubble; she's been in poor health since she was little."
Perhaps it would be better if she didn't become a soldier; at least she wouldn't have to go to the battlefield.
We'll take care of her for the rest of her life and ensure she has no worries about food or clothing.
As Bubble thought about these things, the lingering fear in her heart vanished.
She said to Lin Feng in her mind, "Master, Bubble might not survive."
"May I be your apprentice again in my next life."
