Chapter 926: Chapter 575 Koutao Fishmen_2

Serlemon nodded as well, "All right, the Prophet must be careful and never engage that monster head-on."

The arrangement of Laurantice was the most reasonable one, but what he now worried about was that this old mage would confront the monster, whose strength was unknown, directly.

Although they had only encountered briefly and exchanged blows for two rounds, he still did not favor Laurantice’s odds. That creature definitely possessed strength beyond the legendary, and with a stronger legendary necromancer possibly hiding behind it, carelessness could easily cost him his life.

Laurantice couldn’t help but laugh, "Rest assured, other skills of mine may be average, but escaping death is one where I excel. I’m only responsible for keeping an eye on it, and unless absolutely necessary, I will not engage it in battle again."

After the terrifying undead creature entered the Black Prison, there had been no movement, as if it had completely vanished. However, the faint but terrifying aura suggested it was merely lying in wait.

Instead, it was the Koutao Fishmen that kept pouring out incessantly; the tribe in the Black Prison was not small at all.

Then again, if this is truly their doing, the Black Prison’s current state could not have been caused by a small tribe of a few hundred, but would require at least a few thousand, if not tens of thousands of a giant tribe.

Having arranged for the messengers to send the news, Serlemon led a small force of the Sword of the Deep Forest with flying mounts, following the vast Koutao Fishmen army.

This was not difficult to do because this group of Koutao Fishmen made no effort to hide their tracks, slaughtering all living beings they encountered along the way.

Yet they seemed to have a very clear objective.

Upon reaching the Sanbo River via the temporary watercourse, without hesitation and utterly disregarding the upstream Lake Seber, they directly followed the Sanbo River downstream, heading straight for Yewen Pond and Ashaba River.

This made Serlemon breathe a sigh of relief; Lake Seber was the main habitation for Deep Forest Valley, which was not only home to numerous lakeside villages and towns but also to three Sea Elf Villages.

If this group of Koutao Fishmen were to enter Lake Seber, the consequences would be unthinkable—a chaotic battle would be inevitable.

But now a new problem arose, what exactly did this group of Koutao Fishmen, who had always squatted in the Black Prison, want to do? How had they obtained information from the outside?

Mm, that undead creature had burst in from the outside and released these Koutao Fishmen, and these fishmen had a very clear target, indicating that everything was no coincidence, but a premeditated collusion from inside and outside.

The Koutao Fishmen were the inside, that terrifying undead creature and the power it represented were the outside.

After the Koutao Fishmen entered Yewen Pond, there were many potential targets for attack; they could go up the Ashaba River, attacking Mist Valley and Shadow Valley.

They could also strike Taser Valley and Bow Valley via the Glaemrei River, but the immediate target would still be Battle Valley.

Especially since it had not been long since Duke Gaven of Battle Valley was inaugurated. His manor and Weizemay New Village were situated right by Yewen Pond, putting them under direct threat should these Koutao Fishmen come ashore.

They wouldn’t be targeting them, would they?

No, that’s not right. If it was just a matter of convenience, their Deep Forest Valley, their Lake Seber should be the closest target. It was only a few dozen kilometers upstream and there was no need to go hundreds of kilometers to Yewen Pond.

Speaking of the undead, Lord Serlemon involuntarily remembered the legends he had heard recently. In Siren Valley, which lay to the east of Deep Forest Valley and had disappeared, it was rumored that the Huang Hun Lord had resurrected as a powerful Death Knight, preparing to take revenge on Bow Valley.

Could they possibly be in league with these Koutao Fishmen and aiming to attack Bow Valley? That seems a bit too roundabout, doesn’t it?

Seeing that they were getting closer to Yewen Pond, if the enemy were to make a detour back to Lake Seber, there would be enough time for him to make a trip to Battle Valley and warn the Count of Battle Valley.

Serlemon no longer hesitated, spurring the Pegasus to full speed, heading straight for the Three Rivers Region of Battle Valley.

He had heard much about this young duke in recent times, and although he had never met him, he had a very favorable impression of him. Not just him, all residents of Deep Forest Valley felt the same.

Firstly, having organized the spectacular Ghost Grape Auction, he gathered all the merchants from the Valley and Sambia, creating a considerable momentum. Even Deep Forest Valley benefited from this as those merchants all adhered to the principle of not leaving with empty ships. Many ships made a round to Lake Seber in Deep Forest Valley afterward and sold off all their goods.

Then it was the resolution of the disaster on East Road at Slarcosta. Highmoon, the capital of Deep Forest Valley, was located on East Road. Highmoon’s role to Thunder Mountain Range was like Ruitawen’s to Snowflake Mountain Range, serving as an essential supply transfer station. Half of Deep Forest Valley’s income came through this trade route, highlighting its importance to Deep Forest Valley.

But most crucially, he had helped Deep Forest Valley remove a potential security threat.

The closest Valley to the den of the young Red Dragon in Blood Horn was not Bow Valley but their Deep Forest Valley.

When they found out they had been neighbors with this fierce and cunning Red Dragon for over a decade, many Deep Forest Valley inhabitants broke out in cold sweats.

Luckily, this Red Dragon had a relatively stable source of wealth on East Road and had refrained from preying on the common folk. Otherwise, Deep Forest Valley would have been the first to suffer.
