Chapter 533: [532] Lick Dogs Can't Have Houses, Are You All Sick, Hai Clan?

Garden platform.

"Do you want a little snack?" Water Lotus said, and quickly chewed a few times in her mouth.

It was obvious.

The leader of the Flower Mica Clan had just stolen a few pieces.

Cheng Han keenly noticed this scene, feeling a bit amused in his heart, but calmly said, "Put the food aside."

Water Lotus exclaimed, deftly arranging the table and chairs, then quickly opened the food box and neatly arranged the food.

Each dish was made from extraordinary ingredients, not only delicious but also beneficial to the body.

Water Lotus glanced at the dazzling array of food, and her throat moved imperceptibly.

"Gudong!"

That was the sound of swallowing saliva.

It was almost indistinguishable amidst the sea breeze.

Cheng Han, with his superior hearing compared to Xuan Shi, could hear it clearly.

He smiled silently and ordered, "If you want to eat, go ahead!"

Water Lotus didn't feel embarrassed about being caught drooling, but instead looked happy, saying, "Heya!"

She happily picked up a pair of chopsticks and quickly picked up a few pieces of food and stuffed them into her mouth.

This was a special delicacy for the leader, even though she was the sea domain lord who had joined the Wan Hao Clan, she didn't receive such treatment before.

In the past, she was still a Flower Mica.

Water Lotus was only interested in fresh meat, especially the hearts of prey, and avoided cooked meat.

Later, she was transformed into a human by the Sea Goddess Hai Bei.

Her body structure underwent a huge change, and her taste buds also became different.

Although she still didn't care much for cooked meat, she developed a liking for desserts and pastries.

Cheng Han glanced at Water Lotus, who was eating voraciously, feeling somewhat amused.

Honestly speaking, the leader was not pretentious, straightforward, and genuine, very different from traditional Wan Hao women.

This appearance was truly not annoying, but rather quite cute, giving people a refreshing feeling.

Seeing her focused on eating, seemingly forgetting about the main matter, Cheng Han couldn't help but ask, "Is there something you came here for?"

The leader couldn't have just come for pastries, most likely she had something to report, and coincidentally ran into a maid carrying pastries, so she temporarily "intercepted" them.

Water Lotus exclaimed, reluctantly putting down her chopsticks, quickly chewing a few more times, and then began to talk about the main matter:

"Noble Elder, I received important intelligence. The 'Sea Mouse Clan' has been targeted as a sacrifice by the White Squid Clan, and many tribes have been wiped out.

"Some Sea Mouse tribes are very angry about this. We have secretly contacted several tribes, and they seem to be willing to join the war zone."

The leader was the commander of the Flower Mica reconnaissance team, and the information gathered by each team would be summarized and reported to her.

The so-called "Sea Mouse Clan" was a kind of sea clan that lived in the lower depths of the Bright Sea.

Due to their generally weak individual strength, they can only be considered a relatively small and weak sea tribe.

Cheng Han's expression revealed surprise: "Is that so?"

In fact, through the insight of the All-Knowing Eye, he had long known about the news of the Sea Cucumber Tribe.

Water Lotus nodded excitedly: "If we can win over the Sea Cucumber Tribe, we can weaken the White Squid Tribe and strengthen the power of the war zone."

Cheng Han neither agreed nor disagreed, but instead asked a question: "The three major sea tribes have been rooted in the Bright Sea for tens of thousands of years and have deep control over many sea tribes. How can you ensure that the Sea Cucumber Tribe's surrender is not a plot by the White Squid Tribe? Is their purpose to infiltrate the war zone?"

Water Lotus seemed to have considered this question long ago and decisively said: "We can have the Sea Cucumber Tribe provide a pledge of allegiance and, at a critical moment, launch a surprise attack to disrupt the White Squid Tribe's plans from within."

This sounded like a good plan.

If the Sea Cucumber Tribe did this, it would demonstrate their strong determination to surrender.

If the Sea Cucumber Tribe refused to do so, it would indicate the possibility of deception.

In short, no matter what, there would be no loss!

Cheng Han pondered for a moment and instructed: "Then maintain limited contact with the Sea Cucumber Tribe."

Water Lotus immediately responded: "Yes!"

Cheng Han remained calm on the surface but felt a great sense of relief in his heart.

According to the deduction of the All-Knowing Eye, there was an 80% chance that the Sea Cucumber Tribe's surrender was a plot by the White Squid Tribe.

And this precisely indicated one thing - the Mother of the Sea did not predict everything.

Otherwise, Water Lotus and her group of advisers would not have proposed such a risky suggestion.

However, Cheng Han was not worried about falling into the trap set by the enemy.

Playing tricks and conspiracies was nothing. He, as the leader, had never been afraid of anyone!

As long as the White Squid Tribe dared to play, he could make them doubt their own lives!

No, their squid lives!

Water Lotus glanced at Cheng Han and suddenly changed the topic: "Our tribe will hold a coming-of-age ceremony for a group of young Flower Mica soon. I wonder if the noble Elder would honor them with your presence and witness it with your own eyes?"

Cheng Han firmly refused: "I'm busy lately."

Even with just a little thought, he knew that the coming-of-age ceremony was most likely just an excuse.

The true purpose of the invitation was probably the Seed of Life ceremony.

Just imagine, if he were to enter the nest of the Flower Mica alone and the leader made a slight move with the help of the Mother Goddess Sea Shell, wouldn't he fall into a trap without realizing it?

He must be on guard!

Water Lotus looked disappointed, her face full of sorrow as she said, "Alright then."

Cheng Han ignored it and said, "You can go now."

The water lotus did not dare to resist and could only obediently leave.

Cheng Han, on the other hand, sat down calmly, enjoying the scenery of the misty rain while leisurely sipping his afternoon tea.

After a while, he glanced at the Sea Overlord Legion from a distance.

A halo of light flashed.

The figure of sailor Liu Yan appeared on the screen.

What he saw was Liu Yan holding small cards, earnestly teaching Hua Yunmu the language of the Wan Hao tribe.

"This character is pronounced 'feng'!"

In the glass opposite, Hua Yunmu nodded, her hair dancing in the water, and she pronounced a word, "feng!"

This scene made the corners of Cheng Han's mouth twitch involuntarily.

Even an idiot could see that Liu Yan had squeezed out precious rest and sleep time to carefully make these teaching cards.

After all, this was a submarine, how could they buy such things?

Cheng Han muttered under his breath, "A lickspittle can't have a house!"

If Hua Yunmu could do certain things, it would be understandable for you to lick a little harder.

But it was obvious that Hua Yunmu could only look and not touch. Yet this guy was more dedicated than teaching his own son. Isn't this being a lickspittle?

Cheng Han sighed lightly, a bit resentful, "Can't you learn from this general and maintain your composure in the face of temptation?"

The next day.

North An Military Region.

In the central hall.

Above a mysterious formation, a large illusion measuring tens of meters wide floated.

It was a massive fleet of war hawks.

One-fourth of them were Flame Hawks, while the rest were ordinary war hawks.

A rough estimate would put the number of the fleet at no less than 15,000.

It was the First War Hawk Legion.

And below.

The boundless ocean surged with layers of waves.

Qiu Qiguang took a deep breath and gave a decisive order, "Attack!"

This command immediately transformed into an extraordinary wave and instantly traversed hundreds of kilometers, reaching a flying mysterious boat.

One second later.

After two more jumps, the wave successfully transmitted to the War Hawk Legion.

The next moment.

The illusion changed.

Nearly ten thousand new-style mysterious weapons were dropped by the large fleet.

"Woo~ Woo~"

The sound of whistling filled the sky.

Trails of light extended rapidly towards the sea, collectively painting a magnificent picture.

The first shot of this major battle was fired.

Qiu Qiguang watched this scene, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.

Not only him, but everyone in the central hall was stunned.

In the past, only a cluster of thousands of mysterious boats could create such a massive attack.

But now, a legion composed of tens of thousands of soldiers could easily achieve this.

Times have indeed changed.

Soon after.

"Boom! Boom!"

Accompanied by countless thunderous sounds, a sea area with a radius of over ten kilometers bloomed with giant lotus flowers.

Just then.

A mysterious master hurriedly ran over, shouting before he even approached, "General, the patrol team sent by the Sea Hawk Legion has discovered a large force of sea creatures in the deep sea."

He took a breath and continued, "According to preliminary estimates, there are at least 300,000 sea creature troops converging towards our battle zone through deep-sea currents."

The reason it was called "deep-sea currents" was because they had learned from the previous disastrous defeat of the Black Scale Tribe and dared not advance from the surface of the sea.

Qiu Qiguang's face changed upon hearing this.

Damn it!

Are you sea creatures out of your minds?

I just wanted to put on a show and comply with the orders of the Imperial Palace. Why do you have to react so strongly and directly gather your troops to attack?

Although Qiu Qiguang didn't want to see this scene, from the moment the war started, he completely lost control of the situation.

*

Lingyan Lotus Island.

Cheng Han watched the battle scene and smiled satisfactorily.

Everything was in perfect accordance with his deduction results.
