Half an hour before.
"Armament!!!" A red-haired player calmly activated his armament haki to block the graphorn's final counterattack, taking minimum damage and was just knocked back tens of meters.
Patting away the dust on his body, the red-haired player stood up mostly unscratched.
"Another one bites the dust!" Another player wearing a jacket made out of graphorn hide playfully jokes around while proficiently tying the graphorn corpse with a rope and was about to bring it back to the sect.
'Whoosh'
But at this moment, something flew by, and before the red-haired player could react, a bone spear pierced through his shoulder and nailed him into a tree trunk!
"Who's there?!"
The player wearing the graphorn jacket was startled and when he turned around, what he saw was eight strange figures.
Their bodies were covered in scales, with a fish-like head that resembled human, but that just made them even creepier, and he even spotted what he suspected to be gills on their cheeks!
They strongly remind him of the Murlocs in WOW!
These eight Murlocs, covered in scaly armor and equipped with a bone spear, surrounded the two bewildered players.
"Holy shit, what the hell is happening?
"What in the world are these creepy monsters?"
Both of the players were very confused.
"I didn't think you humans still dare to come here...hahaha, show them no mercy!"
The leader of the Murlocs spoke in a hoarse voice and order the other Murlocs to attack!
"Armament!!!"
Seeing a spear flying toward him, the player wearing the graphorn jacket, activated his armament haki in a panic trying to block the attack!
"Puff!"
However, the bone spear pierced right through his armament haki protection like a hot knife through butter and punctured the player's heart.
One-hit KO!
"Who the hell are you guys?" The red-haired player asked in a panic.
Not only are these Murlocs powerful, but they can also talk?
"We're the noble Seafolks! You lowly and despicable human beings should quietly accept your death!"
The leader of the Murlocs spoke in a hoarse voice and then raised his spear.
"F***ing hell, I not going to let myself easily get killed!" The red-haired player plucked the spear out of his shoulder and ran for his life!
After all, once he kicked the bucket, all of his cultivation will be gone and he'll have to start back at square one!
"Water Manipulation Spell!" However, with a soft whisper of the Murlocs leader, a stream of water suddenly appeared out of thin air and formed a raging river that rushed toward the red-haired player's back, knocking him down!
"Isn't this flat ground? Where in the world did this water come from?" The player struggle to stand up but before he could even make another move.
"Die!"
The Murlocs leader was already one step ahead, he swiftly close the distance and beheaded the red-haired player!
"These humans are so puny!"
"Hahaha, those humans fled this land one hundred years ago, and they will flee this land once again, inferior beings like them can't stand before the noble Seafolks!"
"Leader, let's continue our hunt! There should be more humans not far from here!"
....
The other Murlocs proposed.
"That's for sure, no matter how many times these lowly humans dare to step into our Seafolk's land, we will not only hunt them down but we'll also devour their flesh! Hahaha, it's been such a long time since I have some human flesh, just thinking about it is making me drool!"
"But we can't stop now, there are still more preys to hunt!"
"However, a small bite won't hurt."
The leader of the murlocs gave a cruel look as he picked up the decapitated head of the player and put it into his mouth.
Subsequently, the players who were originally farming graphorns come under attack from the Murlocs, almost getting wiped out!
Armament haki was not able to block their spears and even if they try to run, they will just be knocked down by a raging stream of water, becoming easy prey for the Murlocs!
One of the first players to be killed, the red-haired player, immediately rushed toward He Yi Ming as soon as he was resurrected to report of their presence.
"Murlocs? Seafolks?" He Yi Ming's expression changed.
Although He Yi Ming had never faced a Seafolk before, when he was studying at Heaven Academy, many of the textbooks mentioned this race.
Seafolks mainly dwell within the deep sea and only occasionally appear in the coastal areas.
The majority of the Seafolks are considered mortal enemies of humans!
The reason was that many of the Seafolks find human flesh to be very delicious and will even regularly come ashore to catch a few to snack!
Therefore, most meetings between these two races end in one party's death!
"Disciples, gather!!!"
Without further ado, He Yi Ming immediately gathered all of his disciples.
"The Seafolks are here, until I return, don't move an inch from the sect so as to not be killed by them!" He Yi Ming warned them before rushing down the mountain.
"Holy shit, the Seafolks are here?"
"A new plot? A new race?"
"Shit, how can I miss this, I need to see the legendary battle between Master and the Seafolks!"
....
The players exploded, they put down whatever they were doing and followed after He Yi Ming.
"Hahaha, these human cultivators are so weak!"
"Yeah, they're scared silly, they have even fewer guts than our children!"
"Since they're so feeble, let's just go straight after their sect master! With such trash disciples, their master should be a pushover too!"
....
At this time, the Murlocs had already stomped on and killed dozen of players, each of them became arrogant as hell.
"Nice! I didn't expect the humans that dare to step back in our Seafolks land after a hundred years to be so weak! It seems like the older folks were exaggerating about the powers of these humans! They're nothing in front of the Seafolks!"
The Murlocs leader also swept away his previous worries.
After all, the human cultivators he encountered were so weak!
They had such a slow reaction time and many of them even stood still begging to be hit, they were all easily killed by his spear!
Or they will just flee at first sight, not even trying to fight back!
This was completely different from the story of the cunning and scheming humans describe in the older Seafolks' stories!
With that being the case, then he will quickly end this by destroying their sect!
"Follow after me, we're going to massacre this sect, slaughtering all of those lowly human beings, and then we will feast on their flesh!!!" The Murlocs leader roared ferociously.
"Who did you say you're going to slaughter?"
He Yi Ming calmly spoke as he fell from the sky before the Murlocs.
