218: Chapter 218 Deep-Sea Shrimp King Eggs

Arriving before the tsunami, Nie Ning used his water control skill, attempting to calm the raging waves.

However, facing the sheer power of nature, relying solely on water control was strenuous; the weight and impact force of the seawater alone were not something an ordinary person could withstand.

Not to mention that this tsunami stretched for over ten kilometers, already far exceeding the scope of his control.

With no other choice, Nie Ning could only condense several Ice Walls.

He used these to reduce the impact of the tsunami and divert the incoming seawater to both sides.

As Ice Walls nearly a hundred meters tall rose from the ground, people soon noticed the situation and stopped to watch this unbelievable scene.

Under the Ice Walls set up by Nie Ning, the tsunami instantly crushed two of them.

The crowd became restless again, beginning to flee frantically toward the city.

Nie Ning estimated the data regarding the tsunami's direction and immediately began to create Ice Walls in large batches in sequence.

A vast number of Ice Walls stood before the beach like a maze.

However, relying on this alone was clearly insufficient to stop the tsunami, so Nie Ning could only guide the tsunami toward the nearby mountains.

With the cover of large trees and mountain rocks there, the impact of the tsunami could be effectively slowed down.

Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion, and in the end, at the cost of dozens of Ice Walls collapsing, the tsunami was finally confined to a controllable range.

Although some seawater still invaded the city, it did not cause much damage, and the residents in the city had already hidden in safe areas in advance.

...

"Phew~"

As the seawater gradually calmed down, Nie Ning let out a long sigh of relief.

"The power of heaven and earth is truly not something an ordinary person can withstand."

Although his strength was great, facing a tsunami that spanned tens of kilometers like this, he could only barely control a portion of it.

He turned his head to look at the mountains on both sides.

The trees had collapsed, and the back-flowing seawater had even formed a lake inside.

Nie Ning found it strange; how could there be a tsunami for no reason?

Moreover, it was such a large-scale tsunami.

Unless there was continental drift, such things almost never happened.

But Nie Ning, who possessed the power of the earth, had not sensed any crustal movement, which clearly defied common sense.

And where had Heloise run off to? To think she was nowhere to be seen when such a big event occurred.

After a moment of thought, Nie Ning flapped his Ice Wings and flew toward the ocean.

...

After crossing several kilometers, a huge figure burning with flames came into Nie Ning's view.

It was the Crimson Feather Fire Demon!

Below the Crimson Feather Fire Demon, the sea surface was pitch black, as if something was chasing them.

Heloise, on the back of the Crimson Feather Fire Demon, saw Nie Ning and waved at him excitedly, as if she had met a savior.

Nie Ning frowned slightly and flew onto the back of the Crimson Feather Fire Demon.

"What are you doing?"

"The Crimson Feather Fire Demon said it wanted to eat Tide Shrimp eggs, but I didn't expect it to trigger a riot of the Tide Shrimp."

Heloise pointed at the Crimson Feather Fire Demon beneath her and said.

Hearing this, the Crimson Feather Fire Demon turned its head to look at Heloise in disbelief.

"Big sister, you weren't like this just now. It was clearly you who wanted to take the Tide Shrimp eggs back for research."

"It was clearly you, don't try to deny it!"

"What do you mean it was me? You want me to take the blame for your mistake?"

"It was you, if it weren't for you..."

For a moment, the human and the beast began to argue.

Nie Ning looked at the Tide Shrimp below, a look of gravity on his face.

Tide Shrimp were a low-class exotic beast; their bodies could only grow to about half a meter at most, but their numbers were extremely large.

They possessed a weak water control ability, at most capable of spraying water, and had almost no attack power.

Moreover, the Tide Shrimp's intelligence was not high, and their nature was relatively gentle, so they rarely came out to cause trouble.

Even if caught by fishermen, they would only offer normal resistance and would not cause an entire group to act abnormally.

But once the group rioted, the Tide Shrimp's water control abilities would stack, which was also the origin of the Tide Shrimp's name.

When the number of Tide Shrimp reached a certain level, it was not surprising for them to stir up hundred-meter giant waves.

"What exactly did you take!"

Nie Ning sternly questioned the human and the beast.

He had even seen a second-order Tide Shrimp among the Tide Shrimp just now, so it was clear that Heloise and the others had stolen more than just one Tide Shrimp egg.

And the number of Tide Shrimp was too huge; Nie Ning could not kill them all.

If they followed the tsunami into the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Seeing Nie Ning get angry, Heloise pouted and reluctantly took out a thirty-centimeter golden shrimp egg from her clothes.

Nie Ning beckoned, and the shrimp egg flew into his hand; he could even see a black shadow swimming inside.

Seeing this, the corners of Nie Ning's mouth twitched slightly.

Deep Sea Shrimp Emperor!

This was not an ordinary Tide Shrimp egg, but a creature capable of controlling the entire shrimp species; the Tide Shrimp were merely a branch under this group.

Generally speaking, such group leaders would be born among those powerful group branches; Nie Ning did not expect this Deep Sea Shrimp Emperor to be born among the Tide Shrimp.

But this did not mean the Deep Sea Shrimp Emperor's potential was low.

This creature relied on the strength of the entire group to grow, and the result would be about the same regardless of which group branch it was born in.

What was worse was that if this Deep Sea Shrimp Emperor was real, then the Tide Shrimp below were merely the vanguard troops.

It wouldn't take long before more terrifying shrimp creatures would arrive here.

Nie Ning glanced at Heloise.

He hadn't expected that after just sleeping, this girl had caused such a huge mess.

Let alone him, even if a fourth-order wizard arrived, they would probably find it difficult to quell the anger of the shrimp tribe, and the coastal city would suffer as a result.

Moreover, this kind of group emperor was difficult to raise; without the support of the group's power, it would slowly wither and die.

"I'll settle the score with you two later!"

Nie Ning snorted coldly, then took the shrimp egg and flew toward the interior of the ocean.

"What should we do? Will he roast me?"

Watching Nie Ning's retreating back, the Crimson Feather Fire Demon panicked a little.

Heloise curled her lips and spoke with disdain: "What are you afraid of? Isn't there me?"

Although she said that, she was still a little uneasy in her heart.

And the Crimson Feather Fire Demon was even more panicked when he heard this.

"You are of the same race as Bronk, of course you are not afraid."

"And if you are not afraid, why did you push the responsibility onto me just now? That shrimp egg was clearly taken because your hand was itchy."

Hearing this, Heloise was immediately displeased.

"If it weren't for you saying you wanted to eat shrimp, would I have gone into the sea to find food for you? Now it's all my fault?"

"It was your fault to begin with! I didn't beg you. Have you forgotten that you are my master? How can you listen to a pet's words!"

"Fine, fine, fine, that's how we're playing, right? Last time you stole and ate the teacher's experimental subject, I was the one who covered for you."

"So what? You still broke his precious puppet..."

"..."
