Chapter 779
Carter and Melinda had no idea what Gu Mengmeng was talking about. She gently pushed the three of them out beyond the battlegrounds, before instructing. “Everyone from the Giant Fish Tribe and the Mermaid Tribe are to retreat and stay behind your leaders.”
At her command, the scattered tribesmen retreated in a rather pathetic manner.
Shocked by Wabei, the enemy remained unmoving and just stared on helplessly as they left.
“Is that everyone?” Gu Mengmeng turned and asked.
Carter took a quick survey and nodded.
Gu Mengmeng smiled deviously. “Children, time to eat!”
The moment she finished her sentence, countless water snakes surged from all directions and surrounded the battlegrounds. The snakes gradually closed in, forcing the enemy into a tight group. Anyone who tried to break out of the boundary was immediately bitten by a water snake and swallowed whole.
No one else dared to escape and just huddled towards the center, trembling in fear.
And waiting for them right in the center was Wabei in full beast form.
His jaws were wide open, as if waiting for them to jump in by themselves.
Retreat, but there was nowhere to retreat.
Attack, but the mismatch in abilities was too great.
The original sure-win result had been turned around just because of the appearance of one female.
Damn, when did these snakes appear.
The enemy were squeezed together by the snakes like sardines in a can. Wabei could probably swallow all of them up in just two bites.
“Wait a moment!”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled and made a halting gesture. The snake beasts stopped compressing the group. Wabei also turned back into his half-beast form in a bored manner. He used his tail to fling the person who spoke, to land in front of Gu Mengmeng.
Fish would never look wretched in the water. Even though he had been tossed, the opponent landed steadily before Gu Mengmeng, looking rather stubborn and unbending.
“Great Messenger.”
Gu Mengmeng sized him up and gave a light laugh. “Wow, there are also stray beasts in the ocean.”
That person straightened up. He was not surprised at being identified as a stray beast. After all, although his side comprised enough people to make up a tribe, they were of different races. On land, a tribe could be made up of different races, but ocean tribes were mostly uniform. In addition, the females within a tribe would never partner outside of her own race, so as to preserve the purity of the racial bloodline.
This was one of the reasons why, although she had saved Carter, Melinda rejected and avoided him when he tried to woo her.
“Stray beasts might be beasts who have been abandoned by the Beast Deity, but even so, he should not get his Messenger to annihilate us all? Why is the Great Messenger interfering with our conflict?” It must be said that the person possessed a certain amount of will. He did not feel that it was wrong of him to have initiated a battle. After all, in this world, the powerful ruled over the weak.
Gu Mengmeng grinned at him. “The Beast Deity didn’t ask me to annihilate you all. If so, do you think you would have the chance to stand here now and spout nonsense to me?”
Gu Mengmeng slowly unleashed a whiff of her beast pressure. It was very subtle but enough to send a chill down everyone.
A Beast King-level pressure…
That person clenched his jaws and lowered his head in submission. He was submitting to a more powerful person, and to the instinctual fear of a higher being.
