Inside the protective shield, the ocean pixies watched all of this with numb expressions.

…

In a council chamber within the city.

Dozens of noble ocean pixies sat on either side of tables made of coral, discussing animatedly with a mixture of unease and anxiety in their eyes.

“When will these corrupted creatures stop? It’s been two whole years! Don’t they need rest at all!?”

“They indeed don’t need rest. These corrupted creatures have been completely tainted by the demonic aura which controls their bodies and souls. They won’t stop until they’ve consumed their own lives.”

“At this rate, our reserve resources will run out sooner or later. Forget about food; we can hardly maintain the shield any longer. Once the shield is gone, we won’t last a day with so many corrupted creatures!”

“But there’s no other option, is there? Going outside means certain death. Staying within the shield allows us to cling to survival for a bit longer.”

“What about our allies?”

“You mean the Featherfolk tribe? They reside on the floating mountains and probably haven’t been attacked by the corrupted creatures yet. But don’t count on them for support; Featherfolk can’t venture into the water.”

Seeing the commotion in the council chamber, Chief Elwin furrowed his brows, and slammed the coral table forcefully, creating ripples in the water that gradually calmed the many noble ocean pixies.

As they all turned their attention towards him, Elwin seemed determined and said, “I propose a plan: we find an opportune moment to forcefully break through the encirclement of corrupted creatures and leave this realm for the main world.”

“Forcefully break through? How many of our kin will have to sacrifice their lives for that?”

“Indeed, I’m not optimistic about this proposal. Even if we manage to break through the corrupted creatures outside the city, there’s no guarantee of successfully leaving the realm; these corrupted creatures are everywhere!”

As soon as these words were spoken, several noble ocean pixies voiced their opposition.

Elwin spoke with a solemn tone, “Everyone knows that if we continue to hold our ground, it’s a slow death. Sooner or later, we’ll deplete our resources, and when the corrupted creatures breach the shield, I fear not many of our kin will survive.

Now, we must gather our strength and resources to carve out a path while our capabilities still suffice. We should ensure that as many of our people as possible can evacuate. Otherwise, if we delay further and our strength continues to wane, our ocean pixie lineage will come to an end.”

Elwin looked around and his voice grew even heavier, “What’s more crucial is that we must inform the outside world’s races about the situation here, warning them to be vigilant against the demon’s invasion.

This is our duty and responsibility.”

Upon hearing these words, those who had been silent earlier among the noble ocean pixies nodded involuntarily, and even the few who had opposed fell silent.

After two years of investigation, they had also learned the source of these corrupted creatures – demons.

More specifically, it was the Dreadlord Balzarna, a member of the demon clan, who had been the primary spreader of the corrupted beings during the ancient divine war hundreds of thousands of years ago.

This time, Balzarna sought to implement the same plan from hundreds of millennia ago, intending to sow destruction and death once again into the main world.

Although they had distanced themselves from their fellow pixies on the mainland for quite some time, and their physical appearances were noticeably distinct, when confronted with a worldwide crisis, they had no choice but to take a stand without hesitation, just as their pixie ancestors had done hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Elwin made a decisive statement, “It’s settled then. Everyone, go and make preparations.”

Just as the noble ocean pixies were leaving, a soldier rushed in from outside with a hurried expression.

“Lord Elwin, there’s a commotion among the corrupted creatures outside the city… a human with an army has started to intrude!”

Elwin was momentarily surprised but quickly reacted, “Quick, go and assist them! Be ready to open the shield to let them in!”

Several minutes ago.

“My goodness, there are so many corrupted creatures here!”

Solidus looked at the countless corrupted creatures surrounding the shield one after another, exclaiming in disbelief, “It seems that this underwater city still has survivors; otherwise, these corrupted creatures wouldn’t have gathered in such numbers.”

“This might be why the ocean pixies stopped communicating with the Featherfolk tribe,” Ji Chen remarked, observing the dense, swarm-like mass of corrupted beings.

Seeing this scene, all the heroes understood. The ocean pixies didn’t want to sever their communication with the Featherfolk tribe, but they were blocked at their doorstep by these numerous corrupted creatures, making it impossible for them to establish contact.

This was good news; at least the ocean pixie race still existed.

However, to enter this ocean pixie city, they would have to pass through the horde of corrupted creatures. There were at least a hundred thousand of them outside the shield, and forcibly barging through didn’t seem like a good idea.

But the solution was simple.

“Benbo, lead a portion of the Dragonblood Legion to distract the corrupted creatures and create an opportunity for us to enter. Utilize your speed advantage to shake off pursuit, and the Featherfoik will provide support.”

Benbo had done this kind of task before, and he immediately responded, ”1 will follow your orders.”

This tactic was quite similar to the one they used during the previous Sea Beast Tide to lure the sea beasts. These corrupted creatures and the sea beasts from the Sea Beast Tide shared a common trait – when lacking proper leadership, their cognitive abilities weren’t very functional.

Particularly when these corrupted creatures became tainted and polluted, their mental faculties were limited to thoughts of attacking and causing destruction. Saying they had an IQ. of 10 would be considered generous compliment to them. Hence, it was clear that this strategy was highly effective..
