Chapter 1193: Drawn by corruption (1)
I turned around to see that it was the Merman King who had sent this stream of water at the wave of corruption.
It was a trident that had suddenly appeared in his hand that shot out this stream of water.
I didn't even need to think to know where this trident came from.
After all, the trident pendant that had been around his neck had disappeared when this trident appeared. At the same time, the trident that he was holding in his hand was giving off the same aura that the pendant had been giving off.
There was no doubt that this was one of the relics that Aquaron left the Merman Empire's royal family.
"What are you looking at? Gather yourself and get ready to freeze it!" The Merman King shouted at me when he saw that I was looking at him.
A bitter smile appeared on my lips before I focused on regaining my mana.
Once I had regained enough mana, I suddenly said, "Release it!"
The stream of water stopped and the wave of corruption that it had held back was revealed. Only this time, I was prepared for the wave of corruption as I raised the button up above me towards it.
The moment that I did, there was a powerful glow that came from the button before a layer of ice appeared above me.
This layer of ice quickly spread out in front of me before covering me completely. Though it didn't remain like that for long as it wasn't there to protect me like a barrier, but rather it was there to form a sort of net for the wave of corruption.
The wave of corruption tried fighting back, but it was actually smaller now that I was able to see it clearly without the stream of water blocking the way.
Once again, I didn't need to think to know what had happened.
The stream of water that had come from the trident that the Merman King wielded was considered sacred water, just like how the ice that was released from the button that I had was considered sacred ice.
After all, the trident in the Merman King's hand was a relic that came from Aquaron, so it was one that was filled with divine energy. The water that it released was also filled with divine energy and was considered sacred ice.
But I wasn't going to give this relic to them.
I had no idea what they would do if they got their hands on this button, but I knew it wouldn't
be good.
So they were the last people that I could give this button to.
After it seemed like the corruption energy was half purified, the Merman King and former crown prince let out sighs as if they were relieved.
The Merman King then said, "It seems like the problem has been solved."
I looked at him with a bitter smile as I thought, "Can you not raise a flag like that?"
As if on cue...
"Roar!"
There were loud sounds that suddenly came from all around us.
It seemed that we had been completely surrounded without even knowing it. Perhaps it was because we were too invested in the corruption energy, or perhaps it was the ability of whatever had surrounded us that allowed them to hide themselves.
It was unknown how it happened, but it was a fact that we were surrounded.
The royal guards immediately prepared themselves for a fight after hearing these sounds, but
they were surprised by what they saw.
It wasn't just them that were surprised by this.
All of us were surprised, including Zyra and Puffer.
These two knowledgeable sea witches that had seen all kinds of things were surprised by what surrounded us.
