“They’re coming straight for us.”

Cole squinted his eyes.

Andrea said with a grim face, “Both the Deep Sea Naga and Siren Sea Demons consider the deep sea areas their territory, and they absolutely forbid outsiders from entering. Attacking ships is commonplace, and our three artificial islands under construction are frequently harassed by them.”

“I see.” Sherman half-smiled, “Seems like these neighbors really don’t like us.”

Cole said coldly, “Hit them hard a few times, they will naturally understand who’s not to be messed with.”

Nearby, Tajana and Fleming were already showing eager expressions.

Seeing this, Sherman smiled and said:

“In that case, let’s fight them freely and gather combat intelligence on the strength of the Siren Sea Demons.”

The entire group subtly regarded Sherman as their leader. Once he spoke, the other four naturally had no objections and began preparing for battle.

Andrea hesitated whether to bring up the Refined Gold Golem from the cabin, but seeing Sherman and the others silent, she chose not to mention it.

The Headhunter Shark, extremely swift in water, soon reached the vicinity of the ship.

More than ten Siren Sea Demons began singing, and the enchanting melodious song instantly spread through the surrounding sea area, a peculiar wave enveloping the entire ship.

The remaining Siren Sea Demons quickly climbed along the ship’s walls.

Their hands and snake tails seem to have abilities similar to octopus suckers, making their climbing extraordinarily smooth and nimble.

This is the common tactic used by the Siren Sea Demons to deal with ships.

First using the song to trap the creatures on the ship in an illusion and immobilize them, then boarding the ship during this opportunity, effortlessly resolving the creatures above.

They have used the same tactic countless times, achieving considerable success every time.

But this time, things went differently.

When the Siren Sea Demons jumped onto the deck, they didn’t see the expected dazed prey; instead, several humans were observing them with intriguing gazes.

Their eyes seemed as if the Siren Sea Demons were the ones surrounded as prey.

Before the Siren Sea Demons could react, those humans raised their hands, and the next moment, countless Magic Missiles swept across, overwhelming them.

The more than ten Siren Sea Demons at the forefront were instantly turned into sieves!

Odd chanting reverberated from the mouths of those humans right after.

Only then did the Siren Sea Demons recover, screeching as they charged at the enemy.

The illusion technique of the Siren Sea Demons had no effect on Level 3 Wizard Apprentices.

Attila, Fleming, and Tajana had also taken the alertness potions in advance, directly ignoring the singing and shrieking around them.

Their best illusion technique lost effectiveness, the combat strength of these Siren Sea Demons sharply declined, unable to approach Sherman and the others before being defeated.

In just three or four breaths, nearly half of the hundred Siren Sea Demons rushing onto the deck were already eliminated.

One Siren Sea Demon, seemingly the leader, shrieked sharply, leapt up, avoiding the incoming Magic Missiles, and swung her trident fiercely towards Sherman.

The sharp trident tip tearing through the air emitted an ear-piercing sonic boom, a rather impressive momentum.

But the next moment, a large gray claw phantom materialized out of nowhere, ghostly passing through the Siren Sea Demon’s body, and before it could even scream, it fell to the ground lifelessly.

Seeing their leader slain, the Siren Sea Demons finally feared, jumping back into the sea, riding on Headhunter Sharks and escaping with companions waiting below.

But soon, they were horrified to discover, those Wizard Apprentices were actually chasing them.

Either using Floating Skill or activating magical items, Sherman and his group flew high in the sky, relentlessly using magic to reap the lives of the Siren Sea Demons.

Until only five Siren Sea Demons were left, Sherman signaled the others to stop, using Sleep Skill to put them to sleep, bringing them back to the ship with Mage Hand.

“Lock them up, and wait until we return to the bay to interrogate them,” Sherman said.

“Yes, sir.”

Andrea bowed her head slightly, deeply convinced.

Today she truly witnessed the power of the Wizard Apprentices.

Just five people shattered over a hundred Siren Sea Demons into a rout, nearly annihilating them.

This kind of power is truly terrifying!

No wonder Lady Carolina held that person in such high regard.

If even Wizard Apprentices are this formidable, then how powerful must the legendary Official Wizard, who is said to be much stronger than the Wizard Apprentices, be?

With the battle over, Sherman and his group decided to end this field observation, the ship turned around heading back.

The Star Alliance established five city-states in Rainbow Sea Bay, arranged in an arc along the bay shore facing the sea.

Located right in the middle is White Bay City, the command center for the exploration of Rainbow Sea, also the city-state under Andrea’s jurisdiction.

Upon returning to White Bay City, Sherman and his group immediately interrogated the Siren Sea Demons.

The Siren Sea Demons are skilled in illusion techniques, possessing high resistance to Charm Humans and Hypnosis Skill.

Ultimately, it was Andrea herself who tortured the five Siren Sea Demons to the brink of collapse, their will almost shattered, allowing Cole and Sherman to successfully extract the desired information from them.

“So, did you find anything?”

Once Sherman and Cole returned to the assembly hall, Attila immediately asked impatiently.

“We did manage to extract something,” Sherman said with a somewhat odd expression, “Those Siren Sea Demons said the reason they were able to learn those combat skills and enhance their illusion technique power was because they received a divine revelation?”

Divine revelation?
