Chapter 121 Why didn't you hit me?
Many more wizard apprentices looked grim. The ocean was originally an environment in which the sea creatures had an advantage. Now, the sea creatures were charging in recklessly. Their bodies, as hard as steel, carried a fierce aura. Wherever they passed, the water rippled violently. The casualties would certainly not be small.
"Everyone, get out of here!" the wizard Ian, leading the group, roared, his voice booming through the chaos. He quickly formed hand seals, and beams of magical light shot from his fingertips, striking the giant shrimp in front of him. The shrimp was hit by the magic, its body trembling violently, cracks appearing on its shell, and it emitted painful hissing sounds.
"Let's go too, these sea creatures are clearly trying to clear the area," Ysera, the Wrath of the Mountains, shouted as well, her eyebrows furrowed and her eyes revealing determination. With that, she pushed off with her legs and swam out of the spring like an arrow, leaving a long trail of water in her wake.
The wizards followed the trail of the two figures, fleeing for their lives. Some swam frantically, using both hands and feet. Others cast spells, trying to increase their speed. However, they were soon entangled by the sea creature. A sea creature resembling a seal, with its gaping maw revealing sharp teeth, lunged at a wizard apprentice. The apprentice stared in terror, trying to unleash a spell, but was struck hard by the seal's claws, his body falling like a kite with a broken string. One wizard apprentice after another began to perish on the spot.
"I'm not reconciled!" a first-class wizard apprentice roared before his death, his eyes wide open, his face filled with anger and resentment. He was surrounded by several sea creatures, and one of them, resembling a turtle, rammed him hard with its hard shell. He couldn't dodge in time, and his body was twisted and deformed by the impact, making it impossible for him to even cast spells.
Those with greater strength, including Ian, were enraged. Ian's eyes were bloodshot, like burning flames, and he moved his hands rapidly, shooting spells at the sea creatures. "It seems to be related to that big blue fish in the center of the sea creatures." During his departure, he had clearly observed Lin Wei's appearance among the sea creatures.
"Have you seen these sea creatures before? They look brand new." Ian asked around, shouting as he fought, his voice filled with doubt.
"Never seen one before. This big fish looks pretty good. I'll catch it someday." A wizard apprentice was so angry that his teeth itched. He gritted his teeth, a fierce expression on his face, and gripped his magic wand tightly, swinging it at the sea creature.
"I don't know. Right now, only this big blue fish is absorbing the water in the spring. We've all been driven out," a wizard apprentice said helplessly. He shook his head, his face full of frustration, and his body kept retreating under the attack of the sea creatures.
Upon exiting the elemental spring, the wizard apprentices discovered that even more sea creatures had attacked. The densely packed sea creatures surged forward like a black tide, unleashing deafening roars. "Everyone, run!" Ian unleashed several spells, magical light exploding like dazzling fireworks among the sea creatures, and he began to swim upwards.
Several sea creatures had already surrounded him, and one octopus-like creature stretched out its long tentacles to coil around him. Ian dodged to the side, the tentacle grazing his body, and he seized the opportunity to cast a spell on the octopus's head. The octopus, in pain, retracted its tentacles. He was only able to deal with it because he was relatively strong.
The other wizards were in dire straits, and within moments, several more male wizards perished. One wizard was pierced through the body by the tusks of a walrus-like sea creature, his blood staining the surrounding seawater red.
"Why aren't you attacking me?" Dora's eyes widened, her head tilted, her face full of confusion. She noticed that the sea creatures seemed to be attacking her aggressively, and then they were attacking the male witch next to her aggressively, which was very strange.
"These sea creatures don't attack me either." One of the witches was equally puzzled. He scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face.
"Me too, the sea creatures treat me like I don't exist." Ysera, the Wrath of the Mountains, looked puzzled, her brows furrowed and her eyes filled with confusion.
This phenomenon was beyond the wizards' knowledge. "It's like being commanded," Doraemon murmured to herself, a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"Yes, I think so too. Let's leave quickly," urged a timid witch beside her, her body trembling slightly and her face showing fear.
"Okay." Dora didn't hesitate and swam upwards continuously. She moved her legs quickly, her body darting through the seawater like a nimble fish, moving smoothly and gracefully all the way.
She looked back down and saw that the male witches were in terrible condition. Except for the stronger ones, most of them were being attacked by several sea creatures, and they were surrounded by blood. A sea wolf-like creature had bitten one of the male witches' legs, and the witch was screaming in pain as he struggled in the water. The female witches, who were fewer in number, were swimming upwards with ease.
"This elemental spring has been swallowed up by this giant blue fish." Beside Dora appeared Ysera, the Wrath of the Mountains, her face grim, her brows furrowed, and her lips slightly pursed.
"Isra, should we go and help?" Dora asked, looking at Isra with anticipation in her eyes.
"Aid is out of the question." Isela shook her head. "Dora, my dear sister, we've known each other for so many years, and you're still so kind and innocent."
"It's our good fortune that the sea creatures didn't attack us witches. It's as if some unseen force is protecting us so we can leave safely. If we had gone to help the male witches, we might have been attacked ourselves."
"These people, including Ian, all have the idea of monopolizing the spring water. They just want to take advantage of their numbers to get a share. Look, Ian betrayed a male wizard from another organization," Ysera said, pointing to Ian not far away.
He stepped on the shoulder of a male wizard and swam upwards. The wizard was almost dead and lay limply in the sea. After being stepped on, he had no more energy to leave the sea.
This scene unfolded everywhere, with everyone desperately trying to escape. Those who were weaker were used as bait to draw fire and were trampled on. One sorcerer, being chased by several sea creatures, panicked and crashed into another sorcerer, who stumbled and nearly got caught by the sea creatures.
"Let's go, we're almost at the water. Don't worry about anything else, as long as we survive," Isela said. She had met Dora during an expedition, and the two were like best friends.
"Alright, Ysera, how many mouthfuls of spring water did you swallow?" Dora asked with a smile, her lips curving upwards in a playful expression.
"About five mouthfuls, over 100 elemental factors, that's pretty good," Ysera replied with a smile. "This brings me one step closer to the 10,000 elemental factors needed to become a first-ring wizard. Even for me, 100 elemental factors would take at least seven or eight years of arduous training. This saves a lot of time."
