Chapter 2442: Always Target the Healer First As the underworld’s master, Zu An should have had the authority to control the Ox Heads, Horse Faces, and Generals of Chains and Shackles, but for some reason, he couldn’t communicate with them. Did something happen to the underworld’s authority, or is there a problem with these fellows? “You two wait here. I’ll help them,” the Mermaid Queen said. As they weren’t from the Ocean races, neither Zu An nor the Peacock Princess had to involve themselves. However, the Mermaid Queen, as a member of the Ocean races, couldn’t sit still as her comrades struggled to keep the Eye of the Ocean under control. As for the rule forbidding her from approaching this place, no one would nitpick about that when they were already in a desperate situation here. A blue surge of water gushed toward the battlefield. The Deep Sea Harp appeared in the Mermaid Queen’s hands; this time, she had decided to play it with her own hands. A pleasing melody spread across the battlefield. Glowing, light blue music notes fell on the Ocean races’ warriors and banished their exhaustion, bringing them back to their peak condition. On top of that, they found themselves stronger and faster than usual. “It’s the Mermaid Queen!” “For the queen!” When they saw the beautiful figure above them, the Ocean race army's morale was roused, and they charged at their enemies with greater fervor than before. Astonishingly, that helped them to stabilize their collapsing formation. The Four Dragon Kings gave the Mermaid Queen a nod of acknowledgment before leading their subordinates on another charge against the Ox Heads and Horse Faces. Amazed that the Mermaid Queen’s presence made such a huge difference, Zu An remarked, “I can see how your saintess led your people to victory after victory now.” The Peacock Princess chuckled. “There’s a difference. The Mermaid Queen enjoys great popularity thanks to her beauty and amicable personality, whereas our saintess...” Realization suddenly struck her halfway. “Ah, you’re right. It’s ultimately the same.” All means were the same as long as it united the people. “Those monsters are formidable!” the Peacock Princess suddenly exclaimed. Be it the Ox Heads, Horse Faces, or Generals of Chains and Shackles, they had incredible strength and shocking regeneration prowess. Furthermore, they appeared to have a high level of resistance to abilities, as they easily shrugged off most attacks. It was as if they were born warriors. But with the Mermaid Queen’s support, the Ocean race warriors’ sudden morale boost, and the arrival of more experts to reinforce the Eye of the Ocean, the Ocean races slowly gained the upper hand. The Four Dragon Kings also noticed the monsters’ unusually high ability resistance, so they transformed into humongous dragons which were over three hundred meters long and plunged into the monster horde, ramming their formation apart. Dragons were renowned for their superior physical resilience! Despite the monsters’ hulking physiques and swelling muscles, they were still far too small compared to the giant dragons. Many monsters were swiftly ripped to shreds. Even with their absurd regenerative prowess, they couldn’t recover when ripped apart completely. “All hail the Dragon Kings!” “Long live the Dragon Kings!” ... Cheers erupted on the battlefield. The Peacock Princess heaved a sigh of relief. “It looks like the Ocean races have the situation under control now.” But Zu An continued to stare grimly at the gorge. “That’s not necessarily so.” A guttural roar suddenly echoed from the gorge. “Who dares to hurt my people?!” A massive hand rose from the gorge and grabbed the nearest North Sea Dragon King despite the latter’s massive physique, as if he was just a mere snake. The North Sea Dragon King howled in agony. He struggled with all his might, but he was unable to break free from the hand. Seeing that, the other three Dragon Kings quickly unleashed their strongest skills on the hand, and only then did they manage to rescue the North Sea Dragon King. However, a grayish-white hand imprint was left on the North Sea Dragon King’s body. Soon, he couldn’t maintain his massive physique anymore and transformed back into human form. He looked so withered that he couldn’t even speak. He quickly channeled his cultivation method to suppress the invading death energy. The other three Dragon Kings were horrified. They quickly cast their skills on him. Even the Mermaid Queen rushed over to heal him. If the North Sea Dragon King succumbed to the death energy and turned into a monster, it would be a fatal blow to the Ocean races’ morale. Fortunately, the North Sea Dragon King eventually suppressed the death energy thanks to his high cultivation and the aid he received. However, he couldn’t force out all the death energy, so it was unlikely he could join the battle in the short term. Just then, loud exclamations rippled through the battlefield. The crowd looked over and immediately understood why the Ocean races’ warriors were so frightened. A humongous Ox Head monster boasting a mountain-like physique was climbing out of the gorge. He resembled the other Ox Heads, but his body was so much larger that the others looked like mere ants. He scanned the battlefield and saw his dead brethren. As his eyes turned red, white gas spurted out of his massive nostrils. He raised his humongous halberd and brought it crashing down on the Ocean races. He keenly noted that a mermaid was the central figure of the Ocean races. Her support raised their prowess by at least 30%. Needless to say, she was the first one that had to go! A powerful aura bore down on the area. Those with lower cultivation were paralyzed with fear. The others felt suffocated as a chill surged up their bodies from their toes to their head. It was just an ordinary halberd swing, but its momentum looked as if it could split the world apart. There was no doubt that even the seabed would be split into two if this halberd landed, let alone the Mermaid Queen’s body of mere flesh and blood. Many of the Ocean races’ experts were so nervous that they unleashed their strongest skills against the falling halberd in hopes of saving their goddess. But against the devastating halberd, their attacks were no different from ants trying to move a tree. The Mermaid Queen tried to dodge the attack, only to find that she was locked in place. Left with no choice, she played her Deep Sea Harp so swiftly that her fingers produced afterimages. Music notes strummed into a melody swarmed at the halberd in an attempt to gently curb its force. But the gap in their strength was so huge that her effort was futile. The halberd only stopped for a brief moment before smashing through the music notes to crash down on the Mermaid Queen.
