Chapter 995: Chapter 0992: The Furious Knight
Three Mermaid Devils were hunted down by Ach, who then, with the help of seven mermaids, eradicated the remaining Naga Devils.
A Devil-constructed tower thereby vanished.
All that was left was a thick layer of Devil corpses on the seabed and that dense, lingering aura of the Cursed Dragon.
“These corpses must be purified, or else, after some time, the power of the Cursed Dragon will infect new Devils,” Eternia said.
“We’ve run out of materials to set up a purification Magic Array, so we can only let the Devil corpses lie here and see how the sea’s own purification abilities handle it.”
“Perhaps we can start with the tower; there must be a reason for so many Devils to have built it.”
“Take the three Mermaid Devil corpses with us; they’re important research materials.”
The mermaids cleaned the battlefield while Liszt swam to Ach’s side and said with concern, “Your combat performance was brilliant, with magical barrages that were both powerful and exhilarating. If Dragon Knights could also fight underwater, I fear they wouldn’t match your speed at hunting Devils.”
“Hmm, Ach also had a great time; it was finally a chance to test my combat skills.”
“How was the magic consumption for this battle?”
“Magic consumption wasn’t much of an issue; the Magic Web supported Ach in continuously drawing power. However, it’s mentally exhausting, and now Ach feels a bit fatigued.”
“Then you should rest well, and I will go with the mermaids to investigate the tower.”
“It’s okay, brother; Ach is just a bit tired, it doesn’t affect the research.” She still insisted on joining the investigation of what caused the tower to disappear and obtain firsthand observations for the study of Devils.
The tower had already disappeared, but amid the carcass rubble, the intense aura of the Cursed Dragon could still be felt.
The mermaids cleared the debris, and soon Liszt saw the source of the Cursed Dragon’s aura; it was a piece of rotting flesh emitting an aura of Superior Magic. Just like the piece of decaying flesh that had condensed to form a dragon claw during the purification ritual, it was a special power structure.
“It’s the dispersed Dragon’s Super Magic; energy like this is surely scattered in every nook and cranny of the Devil’s Sea. Only by cleaning all of it can we completely purify the sea. The Devils gathered here by the Cursed Dragon’s Super Magic, seeking its protection to continue surviving.”
“No rush, we’ll take our time; there will come a day when it’s all purified.”
After packing the rotting flesh, the group began their return.
Without venturing further, encountering a Devil Tower had already been dangerous enough; they didn’t want to come across another.
Now everyone was in poor condition; the mermaids had not recovered, Ach was mentally drained… As for Liszt, underwater, he could only shout “666” to cheer them on.
…
Back at the Overmarine Laboratory.
Ach and the mermaids immediately immersed themselves in the study of Devils, while Liszt, along with the youngest mermaid Bluposi, headed to Estuary City.
His plan was to construct a large sea city in the shallow waters near Estuary City, to be the residence for the Fish Ugly Race.
Then, through the management of the mermaids, he hoped to enlist the Fish Uglies into the labor force, engaging in construction, marine aquaculture, and the like.

Of course, the specific arrangements would be handled by the Development Committee; he personally lacked the patience for such detailed mundane matters.
“Dimaria, the arrangements for the mermaids and Fish Uglies will be left to you. My father is currently at Azure Sky Peak Palace helping the Sapphire Family with funeral preparations, and I need to rush there in a few days too. You should consult with Emily more about the work of the Development Committee. From now on, I’ll entrust the management of marine tasks to Emily,”
Liszt instructed Dimaria Yuhua Stone at the administrative office in Reed City.
Among his most trusted followers, Emily undoubtedly was going to shoulder more important tasks in the future, and dealing with the Mermaids’ affairs would eventually be given to her.
However, Emily now needed to learn how to manage a vast territory, and Dimaria would make a qualified teacher.
Additionally, he planned to have Bluposi get along well with Emily for a while before finally handing over Bluposi’s Heart of the Mermaid contract to Emily—he didn’t need so many Hearts of the Mermaid himself, after all, when he went underwater, he could only sit on the Mermaids’ shoulders and shout “666”.
“I understand, Your Majesty,” Dimaria was still in a state of shock.
Since he had arrived in the Flame Kingdom, one startling event after another had occurred: he had seen the Sacred Dragon, the Unicorn, the Phoenix (mistakenly thought to be a Flame Dragon Bird), passed through the magical Magic Teleportation Array, each event being shockingly overwhelming. Now, he was additionally astonished by the Mermaids.
“Moreover, don’t forget to hire a few Serpent Script teachers for the Mermaids; they don’t speak the official language.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Seeing Liszt rise, Dimaria quickly stood up to see him off and asked somewhat incredulously, “Your Majesty, did Mermaids truly rule over the ocean?”
“Who knows? Anyway, I am now the master of the sea. You must remember this. Don’t be overly humble when dealing with Mermaids.”
“I will pay attention to my attitude.”
Leaving the office.
Liszt then went to the Magic Guild and met the executive vice president: “Chris, I have a task I need to entrust to the Magic Guild.”
“Just give your commands, Your Highness.”
“Kenley should have already sent you a message. I’ve recruited a new batch of Mermaid followers and have obtained several million Fish Ugly race laborers.”
“I have heard, Your Highness. I would very much like to visit the Overmarine Laboratory to see the Mermaids myself… Being able to follow Your Highness and witness so many wonderful things that exist only in legends… Dragons, Unicorns, Mermaids…”
“You will have plenty of time to meet Mermaids later. Right now, I need you to gather a group of Magicians who are relatively knowledgeable about the Source of Vitality Potion and arrange for them to go to Estuary City to collect samples. I want the Magicians to research a Source of Vitality Potion suitable for the constitution of the Fish Uglies.”
“Are the Fish Uglies facing reproductive issues?” Chris asked curiously.
“Yes, it is precisely because of the reproductive difficulties of the Fish Uglies that the once densely populated seas are gradually becoming silent and disappearing. If I don’t intervene, in a few hundred years, the Fish Uglies could truly go extinct.”
“I will arrange for Magicians to go to Estuary City to collect samples and research the Fish Uglies’ Source of Vitality.”
After giving the task and reviewing a batch of the latest Magic Guild research topics, Liszt finally returned to Flame Castle. He then saw the Gourd Minor Elf in the midst of a temper tantrum.
“Master, the Marquis has already come to confirm that this Gourd Minor Elf is evolving. Its physical development is very good, and the probability of a successful evolution is very high,” said Butler Carter joyfully. Liszt hadn’t lived in the Castle for a long time; these Elves were like children he looked after.
He was filled with affection for each and every one.
He rejoiced sincerely for the Gourd Minor Elf’s evolution.
“Bupiji bupiji!” The Gourd Minor Elf stood on Liszt’s arm, expressing its recent troubles; it absolutely despised the Greater Elf bully in the Castle.
Liszt couldn’t help patting its head: “Remember this feeling, once you’ve successfully evolved, you’ll be able to resist Jela’s oppression.”
He actually felt like laughing; he hadn’t expected Jela to really trigger the Tuna Effect.
The Gourd Minor Elf was the first Elf stimulated to evolve by the Tuna Effect.
“Bupiji bupiji!”
“Since you’re about to become a Gourd Greater Elf, you should have your own name… You’re quite angry now, so why not call you Furious Knight-Klay!”
