[Theresa (Hero)]

[Race]: Siren

[Tier]: Above Epic

[Level]: ????

[Abilities]: ????

[Ruler of the Heraklion Ocean Kingdom, a member of the Heraklion royal family]

Theresa was the most powerful hero unit Ji Chen had ever encountered. The four words “Above Epic” prove that she was more powerful than the elf hero Elin and the dwarf hero Thotmudo, on the same level as the Infernal Fire Demon that once destroyed the Black Iron Fortress of the dwarves.

Her level was most likely already above level 79, reaching level 80 or even higher.

However, under the gaze of such an unfathomably powerful figure, Ji Chen neither shows arrogance nor timidity. He met her gaze without being haughty or timid, showing neither submission nor fear.

His tone was calm and decisive, as if stating a fact.

!!..

“In the not-so-distant future, demons will extend their claws towards the sea clans and engulf this splendid marine civilization with extreme malevolence.”

Theresa furrowed her brows slightly and sat up straighter.

Her majestic presence, like a vast ocean, permeates every inch of seawater.

“No matter how evil and arrogant the demons may be, they can never reach this place. The ocean is our best barrier.”

“Human, your fearmongering words cannot shake my determination, nor can you persuade the sea clans to join that meaningless, ugly, and impure war.”

The queen, being a ruler, had long seen through the purpose of the human visit from their words and actions.

Ji Chen’s eyelids twitched slightly, but then his expression became calm.

“I do have such thoughts indeed, but these are not empty words. Lady Theresa, if I’m not mistaken, you must have already reached an agreement or treaty with the demons, probably something like non-aggression between the two sides?”

Theresa’s expression remained unchanged as she leaned back against her throne. “And if 1 have?”

Ji Chen suddenly smiled, “Since you are not afraid of the demons, why did you make such an agreement?

Could it be… you also have concerns of your own?”

Theresa’s eyes flickered slightly, and her expression became somewhat more serious.

Ji Chen noticed Theresa’s subtle reaction and became certain.

He guessed it right! The sea clans indeed have some kind of agreement with the demons or even the forces of evil!

This was a conjecture he had made based on his knowledge of the history of divine wars and his strategic thinking.

In the colossal divine war that spanned hundreds of thousands of years, involving countless races and nations, resulting in widespread suffering and devastation, the sea clans, even in their isolation, couldn’t possibly be oblivious to it.

Elves, humans, and other orderly divine factions may be seen as acting in self-defense, but the sea clans, perhaps, wouldn’t harbor any hostility, even showing compassion. But how could they not have a shred of concern when it came to the evil faction that had actively triggered the Divine War?

Imagine two neighbors wielding weapons, fighting fiercely in your yard, with blood flowing and chaos reigning. How could anyone remain indifferent to such a situation?

No matter how strong one might be, they would still fear that their fence, flowers, and plants in the yard would be damaged.

According to common sense, one would probably hold defensive weapons and hide behind the window, secretly observing, or even proactively warning the neighbors not to let the conflict spill over into their territory.

At the very least, something along those lines.

Perhaps it wasn’t apparent from Theresa herself, but the changes in the expressions of those sea clan nobles and officials easily revealed these sentiments.

Once this was confirmed.

The next steps would be straightforward.

It’s all about creating an information gap that couldn’t be bridged between the two sides.

He knew what happened to the sea clans during the divine war, how they were invaded by demons, and so on, but the sea clans in this instance, like replicas replaying a segment of time, were completely unaware of these facts.

In other words, he could exploit this “foreknowledge” information gap to influence Theresa and the sea clans’ future decisions.

For example, in this replica, the Battle of Panas was nearing the middle of the divine war, the point in time when the demons and other evil forces were about to target the sea clans. He couldn’t believe that the demons hadn’t started nurturing new underwater units for the impending attack.

In a word, it’s all about bluffing!

“Based on the information I’ve obtained, the demons have been secretly cultivating a large number of units adapted to underwater environments. Their purpose is to launch a surprise attack on the sea clans at some point in the future, annihilating the sea clan civilization once and for all.”

Ji Chen spoke with a calm tone, saying, “If you don’t believe it, Lady Theresa, you can send soldiers to secretly investigate.

If there’s even a trace of falsehood from me, you’re welcome to deal with me.”

Theresa looked at Ji Chen, who was confident and calm, and couldn’t help but feel a hint of doubt.

Could it be true?

Have the demons indeed harbored malicious intentions towards the sea clans?

Theresa signaled with her eyes to the merfolk general who had brought Ji Chen in and then turned her gaze to Alice, showing a hint of interest.

“You’re a Siren?”

Alice remained unfazed and just looked at Ji Chen.

Ji Chen nodded slightly.

Only then did Alice look at Theresa, nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then transformed back into her Siren form.

As the faint blue tail fin and the aura that symbolized the Sirens spread through the vast space, the sea clan nobles and officials were astonished, looking at Alice with incredulous eyes.

It was actually a Siren!?

Sirens were a noble lineage among the sea clans, with an extremely high and esteemed bloodline. If one were to distinguish bloodline based on rank, Sirens would undoubtedly be at the level of dukes..
