After the "Divine Apostle" Merfolk Spirit personally intervened, the negotiations between the Merfolk Race and the Skeletons proceeded surprisingly smoothly.
Especially when the Merfolk Race took the initiative to propose an alliance, Gu Sheng felt a sense of being flattered.
However, after understanding the needs of the Merfolk Race, Gu Sheng felt that this seemed quite reasonable.
Unlike the Skeleton Race sheltered by the Day of Sin,
the Merfolk Race faced significant difficulties in reproduction, leading to only a small settlement size after hundreds of years.
This was partly because most merfolk offspring transformed into mindless fish with human faces during growth.
But on the other hand, due to the merfolk's valuable nature, they constantly faced hunting from other species.
Weighing both aspects, forming an alliance with the Skeleton Race naturally became an inevitable choice.
[But... is it really just for this reason?]
