The waves gradually returned to their familiar appearance. The effect of ebb tide is not obvious in deep water. When the seabed under the body rapidly drops into the shadow that can''t be seen clearly, the thrust behind him disappears. But even so, the thrust of Jacqueline''s heart still forced her to swim as fast as possible towards the position of her tribe in her mind. In front of the female hunter, the current turned into a wall that was hard to break through, which prevented the wounded hunter from returning to her hometown. The cry of her companions gradually weakened in her ears, which is not to say that she has left her companions far behind. On the one hand, Jacqueline''s mind is full of mixed thoughts and confused thoughts, and has no intention to read the information in the water; on the other hand, although the ebb tide current is not detected in the sea, another disturbing wave is flooding the sea area The sound affects the siren''s hearing more or less.
The last words of the Witch and the vicious expression on her face were repeated in jequia''s mind. The tide was not on this side. A very bad prediction gradually emerged in the mind of the Huntress. She had to get back to her tribe faster, faster, so that she could calm down the burning flame in her heart.
The sea monsters who follow Jacques seem to realize something. They believe that the respected female hunter will never fall into a frenzy for no reason. There must be some reason that forces her to move forward rapidly. No matter what the reason is, they should stand behind Jacqueline as the shark toothed sea demon. This is why the more organized Nu Tao tribe has been unable to defeat the shark teeth in the environment for many years. Like the sharks around them, these hunters are usually loose and free, but when faced with danger, they will form a frightening team to defend their interests with the primitive violence from the bottom of the sea.
The smell in the sea is familiar, which is the unique flavor of the sea area where the tribe is located. There are subtle differences in the composition of sea water in different sea areas, and these differences are a powerful tool for sea monsters to distinguish their positions. Jacques gradually slowed down the pace of her progress, she was still in a hurry to get back to the community, but if things were as she thought, she and her fellow countrymen behind her had to be careful to approach, ambush, and could appear anywhere. "Keep the people behind you alert. This sea area is not safe." She said in sign language to the people behind her.
Sharks swim in the dark blue water, searching for potential enemies for their companions, just like the hounds that nomads in some places carry in combat. The world under the sea is quiet. The deeper the place is, the quieter it will be. It seems that the silent world usually only makes hunters feel comfortable, but now it makes people irritable. The team is getting closer to where the tribe is. Under their bodies, the sea bed rose and turned into a large stretch of submarine hills, in which the reefs cast a lot of shadows in the weak light, and each shadow seemed to hide a pair of hostile eyes. This is the place where every shark toothed sea demon played since childhood, but it seems so strange here. Something''s wrong.
The huge black shadow gradually becomes clear from the distance. It is a barrier composed of rocks almost protruding from the sea. This is the landmark of the shark tooth tribe. After this natural barrier, it is the gathering place of the tribe. For many years, the sea demons of the shark tooth tribe have thrived under the protection of this rock barrier. For hunters, this barrier can not only shield the raging current, but also provide them with countless small shelters. Even if there is a large invasion of enemies, they can also rely on this natural danger to hunt and kill their opponents one by one.
Jacques stops at a distance from the rock barrier, gesturing to disperse behind her. Several of the best and most qualified hunters followed Jacques, while the other hunters and sharks went in three directions to bypass the barrier. This is to make the potential ambush unable to grasp which team to attack. It is also a common trick used by fish schools in the face of large predators.
Among the four groups, the team led by the female hunter chose the shortest and most dangerous path. There are some fishing ideas in this kind of behavior. Jacques is confident that even if she is ambushed, she and the experienced hunters around her will have a way to minimize the loss. Then the other teams will be relatively safe and have more reaction time.
Fortunately, the imaginary ambush did not happen. Jacqueline and her team managed to get through the tunnel through the rock barrier, some too well. When these sea monsters stand on the high barrier overlooking their community, their eyes can hardly believe what is in front of them. The city, which was originally made of rocks and sand, disappeared, leaving only a large number of debris. All the sea monsters were stunned. They didn''t expect that when they went to fight for the shark father, their hometown would be like this.
"Father shark, what''s going on?" A sea demon couldn''t help saying. Instead of exclamation, Jacqueline realized that things were heading for the worst as she had expected. She jumped off the cliff and shrunk her body into a bunch as much as possible to reduce friction with the current. The other hunters looked at each other, clenched their weapons and followed closely. After the shock, they begin to pour out more feelings in their chest, and those of them will dominate, depending on the damage of the settlement.The hunters only hope that the damage to the building is the biggest loss they have to face. But as several people get closer, the smell of blood in the sea and all kinds of carnivorous fish sniffing at it can no longer maintain this optimistic attitude. The worst happened. Jacqueline''s hand is still holding the long handled weapon, which symbolizes the power of command. Her keen vision has made her see the corpses of the same clan lying on the building and sea bed. There are many children and old people among them. It''s also true that most of the adult harpoons hunt in individual or small groups, and the residents who will settle here are mostly the elderly and the young.
"Who is responsible for protecting this place?" Jacqueline asked her companion behind her in a trembling voice. The sea demon standing behind her did not answer in words, but raised her hand toward the center of the ruins, where you could see an upright stone pillar with a man nailed to it. It was the corpse of a sea demon who had lost his right arm and left leg. His flesh and blood were eaten by carnivorous fish, leaving only his head relatively intact. This may be because the expression on his face was so ferocious that the fish did not dare to eat.
Jacqueline walked slowly through the ruins of the town she once knew. Behind her, the other three groups of sirens also bypassed the barrier and saw the terrible sight. Crying and swearing gradually rose on the bottom of the sea. It was the hunters who found the bodies of people they knew or even related to in the ruins. However, even if they are not their immediate relatives, the sea monsters of the shark tooth tribe are close like brothers and sisters. All the old people are their elders, and all the children are their younger generation. Nowadays, the most determined hunter can''t help but let the painful emotion flow from his chest to his brain. In this howl, Jacques came to the body nailed on the top of the body, a long spiral shaped spear pierced through the latter''s chest, making the body and the pillar firmly into a whole. Female Hunters know this kind of spear, which is a common weapon of the Nu Tao tribe.
But Jacqueline did not confirm the murderer of the tragedy. She was afraid that it was a trick deliberately set up by the witches. Until, from the left hand of the corpse, she found a talisman with dim and shining light. The amulet was held in her hand, and even though the flesh on the hand was gradually rotting, it was still not released. The Huntress took out her knife and cut open the body''s left hand. She saw the three-thirds wave on the amulet, a sign only used by the tide lady priests. And this is not something witches can fake.
"Ah The roar of anger and pain reverberated on the bottom of the sea.
