Chapter 725: The Avengers!

“I read about it in the books, a fairly ancient species. Something worth mentioning is, their fighting capacity underwater is a lot higher than on land. We managed to kill the Scarlet Soaring Demons quite easily because there wasn’t any body of water nearby,” Mu Ningxue nodded.

——.

A few clouds were drifting slowly in the blue sky.

There were a few islands nearby on the ocean. It was hard to tell how long they had existed in this area.

The islands were not large, a lot smaller than the island they were on previously. Each of them was between two to three times the size of an auditorium. Their diameter was less than five hundred meters.

The Magician’s hearts sank when they saw the islands.

If the nest was located on a huge island, they would be able to fight the Scarlet Soaring Demons on land, far away from the water, securing an advantage.

However, on small islands like these, it was impossible to stop the creatures from going into the ocean.

Since they were sea monsters, their sharp claws were not their scariest weapons, but the sea water.

They would be able to execute powerful moves that were several times stronger than their attacks on land. If that was the case, it would be a tough fight to take on the whole nest of Warrior-level Scarlet Soaring Demons with their numbers.

Gong Yu returned to the ship after he was done with the scouting. “I’ve scouted ahead, there are four islands in total. One in the middle, with the other three surrounding it like an irregular triangle. Those three islands are inhabited by Sea Monkey Monsters covered in brown fur. The island in the middle is dominated by the Scarlet Soaring Demons!”

“Why would there be Sea Monkeys here?” Nan Yu was confused.

“The Sea Monkeys are a rather timid species. Every tribe of strong demon creatures in the ocean treats them as their servants. Their fighting capacity is average, but their ability to find food, steal, and flee are quite outstanding. They are quite common in the ocean,” answered Nan Rongni, who came from Yuhai College.

Similar to Mo Fan, Nan Rongni was also from the south. She was quite the talkative type in the team, and was slightly closer to Mu Ningxue.

Mu Ningxue was from the south, too. It seemed like they knew one another before the training. Every time Mo Fan went to improve his relationship with Mu Ningxue, Nan Rongni would automatically back away to give them some privacy. Mo Fan did have a good impression of her… most importantly, the girl was gorgeous too, she looked like the gentle type, her temperament completely different from Jiang Shaoxu, who kept trying to raise her presence in the team.

She was rather familiar with the Sea Monkeys, and immediately told the team what she knew.

Nan Rongni suspected that the Sea Monkeys were responsible for bringing the infants to the Scarlet Soaring Monsters. These creatures were slightly bigger than normal monkeys. They could easily sneak into the safe zone at night and snatch away kids in the remote fishing villages without alerting anyone.

“How many Sea Monkeys are there?” asked Ai Jiangtu.

“Between two to three thousand based on my rough estimation. It’s not many, but it’s going to be a hassle,” said Gong Yu.

“How about the Scarlet Soaring Demons?” asked Ai Jiangtu.

“That’s harder to estimate, the Scarlet Soaring Demons are a lot more sensitive than the Sea Monkeys. There’s no way I can get too close to their nest. I think there are around two hundred of them,” said Gong Yu.

“No wonder they said the sea monsters are from a pack. More than a hundred Scarlet Soaring Demons is indeed comparable to a pack of demon creatures,” said Nanyu.

“If the strength of every Scarlet Soaring Demon is similar to those we encountered before, we won’t have any problem eliminating them, but if they are stronger in the water, it’s likely that we’ll be pinned down here. We no longer have the advantage…” said Ai Jiangtu.

Being furious did not mean they had lost their rationality. They would not act recklessly…
