Chapter 1089 Confirm Capture? Outside Verell Town, hundreds of merfolk waited nervously as they looked out into the distance.The sky was pressed very low by the dark cursed barrier. They could already see the whirlpool formed from the three whirlwinds in the distance. The surface of the water was slightly unsettled.
Other than the garrison, the young and strong merfolk from the town had also joined them outside the town to reinforce the defenses.
The merfolk were all aware of how terrifying the Nether Sharks were. It was meaningless to run away from the town. For their loved ones in the town, the only thing they could do was stand strong and fight back.
Even if they could not defeat the ferocious Nether Sharks, as long as they could last till the reinforcements from Bulloch City came, there would be hope for Verell Town.
This was destined to be a deadly battle.
They had nowhere to retreat.
It would only take a large Nether Shark two cycles to destroy a small town. The large whirlwind that spanned almost 100 meters could easily destroy all buildings in its way.
The young Dewell was standing by the town’s wall, gripping tightly his speargun. The black speargun appeared fairly old, but the tip was very sharp.
This was the speargun his father used in war.
Eight years ago, as the captain of the garrison in Verell Town, his father died in the mouth of a Nether Shark with his mother, who was also a warrior, in order to protect the moving townspeople, leaving only this speargun behind.
Eight years was long enough to make many memories faint, but he could never forget that scene when his parents got torn apart by the whirlwind.
All these years, he had been training hard with the speargun just so that he would be able to fight the Nether Sharks and take revenge for his parents one day!
“Dewell, go back and protect Kelly,” Katol said as he walked towards Dewell.
“Being here is the best way to protect her,” Dewell said with resolution as he looked at Katol.
“That is a large Nether Shark. It’s pointless for you to be here.” Katol frowned. He had watched this child grow up. His father was one of the rising potentials in the younger generation, so he could not watch this boy court death.
“My parents knew that it was pointless for them to stay back then, but didn’t they still do that anyway?” Dewell shook his head. He tightened his grip on the speargun, his eyes glimmered with conviction.
“This child…” Katol saw the shadow of that burly man from back then in him. In the same way, once he set his mind on something, no one was able to talk him out of it. Katol sighed and turned to leave. After that, he beckoned a warrior to watch out for the boy.
“Incoming!” a merfolk exclaimed.
The huge whirlwind could be clearly seen. When large rocks were sucked into the whirlwind, they were immediately crushed into infinite small pieces by the grayish-black wind. Fishes swam away in all directions, terrified, but that whirlwind was just like a huge vortex of suction that sucked the fishes in crazily. After that, the fishes disappeared.
In that large grayish-black vortex, one could faintly make out a large silhouette.
There were two smaller whirlwinds following behind. As the three whirlwinds made their way over, they left three deep trenches in the ground and a mess in their wake.
The merfolk warriors’ faces turned pale when they saw that scene. Although they would be attacked by the Nether Whirlwind every year, Verell had yet to face such a horrifying Nether Shark alone.
Katol raised his trident high with both hands, and loudly shouted, “For Verell! For our loved ones! Be prepared to fight, my brave warriors!”
“FIGHT!” the other mermen warriors shouted together, looking ready to welcome the battle ahead.
Dewell also shouted loudly with the rest. His eyes were bloodshot, and his hand holding the speargun was slightly trembling—not from fear, but from excitement.
“HA!”
Katol appeared outside of the defense shield in the blink of an eye. The trident in his hand glowed with bluish violet light as he slashed out with all his might towards that whirlwind.
An enormous bluish violet trident appeared, and went straight for that giant whirlwind that was 100 meters tall and wide.
The trident grew bigger as it approached the whirlwind, and it was 100 meters long in the blink of an eye, bringing with it a giant current, and crashing towards the whirlwind.
Everyone watched this scene with wide eyes. Katol was the strongest out of all of them. Only he could stop that large Nether Shark.
“Boom!”
The large trident and the whirlwind crashed into each other, creating a loud boom. The unstoppable whirlwind only halted for a while, and there were no traces of damage on it.

Although that whirlwind stopped, it was still spinning crazily, and its wind was like an infinite amount of sharp blades, slashing that giant trident.
Sparks flew, and the trident was shortened at a visible speed. In the blink of an eye, the three prongs had already disappeared, and it was just a matter of time before that long pole would be ground up as well.
Meanwhile, that Nether Whirlwind just appeared a little smaller, and that shadow in that whirlwind became more obvious. Its large size put everyone under tremendous pressure.
“Together!”
Katol was not discouraged by that. The large Nether Shark’s whirlwind was difficult to defeat in the first place, and that was within his expectations. Besides, this Nether Shark was already about to evolve into a large Nether Shark. His goal was just to buy as much time as he could.
Countless spells flew out from the defense shield, looking like rays of light flying towards the three whirlwinds.
The spells blasted near the whirlwinds, exploding like beautiful fireworks, but the three whirlwinds did not move an inch.
The merfolk’s magic was completely useless in front of the Nether Whirlwind. It could not even penetrate the whirlwind, much less cause any substantial damage to the Nether Shark within it.
It could not even break through the Nether Sharks’ outermost line of defense. This huge difference was indeed despair-inducing.
“Sssss!!!”
At this moment, a sharp shrill sound came from within one of the whirlwinds, and was carried over by a water current. The largest whirlwind started spinning at a greater speed, and whatever was left of the trident exploded into small pieces. The whirlwind came speeding over towards Verell Town, making stones fly in the air.
“Oh no!”
Katol knitted his brows tightly together, and went straight towards the whirlwind with a trident in his hand.
The merfolk were equally strong and powerful.
The merfolk warriors were even fearless.
The bluish violet light from the trident enveloped him, and he soon became a ray of light bolting towards that whirlwind.
The merfolk’s magic was unable to cause any damage to the whirlwind, so the only way the mermen warriors could win against the Nether Sharks was to attack from close proximity.
Very quickly, a few merfolk powerhouses dashed out of the defense shield, moving toward the other two whirlwinds. They were in charge of holding the two middle-sized Nether Sharks back.
The trident made a hole in that whirlwind, and Katol entered.
The whirlwind stopped advancing. A small silhouette and a large shadow started engaging in a fierce battle within that whirlwind. Turbulence started brewing in the seawater, and there were occasional sharp shrieks coming from within the whirlwind.
“Pffft~”
The battle did not last long before Katol flew out from the whirlwind like a helpless shrimp, covered in blood. He only managed to stop himself from moving back with the trident that was broken into two when he was about to reach the defense shield. He spat a mouthful of blood out, and stared indignantly at the large Nether Shark that was no longer calling out the whirlwind.
“Fight till the end!”
The last of the merfolk warriors’ fear and desperation had fueled their conviction.
Even if they wouldn’t win, they would not retreat. The only way was to fight till their death!
The Nether Shark looked at the merfolk with killing intent. It revealed its two rows of razor-sharp teeth. They are the tastiest food every year. Although they’re small, they love to struggle, so it’s even more interesting during the hunt.
Bam!
Just then, an unknown object fell from above and landed with a loud bang… right on top of that Nether Shark’s head.
That Nether Shark, which was prepared to start its hunt, was suddenly smashed to the bottom of the sea as though it was hit by a heavy hammer, causing the stones at the bottom of the sea to fly up.
“Assessment: serious injury to one large Nether Shark and two middle-sized Nether Sharks. Confirm capture?”
A robotic voice sounded from within the cockpit of the submarine.
