The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful
Chapter 272: Malicious existence, resources at hand, rushing to war
At noon the next day, Yali was invited again by Ji Chen to have lunch together.
On the table are various specialties from the crown of the ocean and food with a strong marine style, such as three- to four-meter-long deep-sea evil fish, a strange swordfish with a unique single horn, and a two- to three-meter-long giant squid that can only be found on the bottom of the sea. Produces deep-sea clams as big as a basin.
The appearance and taste of these foods gave Yali a lot of experience in living in the desert. His hands never stopped, stuffing various things into his mouth, and he never forgot to praise them again and again.
"Your Excellency Ji Chen, the taste of this clam is really great. I have never tasted such delicious marine food!"
"The meat of this fish is also very good. It tastes very soft and waxy, a bit like a silver beetle in the desert."
Ji Chen had a smile on his face, and waited until he was almost done eating before asking in a leisurely manner.
"I am very curious about the Southern Continent. I wonder if Sir Ari can introduce it to me later."
Eaters are short-tongued, and it was hard for Ari to refuse when he looked at the food he had eaten.
Anyway, it's just an introduction, just consider it as the accommodation and food expenses for staying here during this period.
After Yali finished his meal, he followed Ji Chen to a side hall and sat on a soft sofa. The fireplace beside the wall was burning, and the orange flames gave a hint of warmth.
"You should know that most of the southern continent is occupied by barren desert."
"Of course I know this." Ji Chen smiled, "Although I live in the ocean and have never been to the Southern Continent, I also know some basic information through other methods."
Yari nodded. He had been told before that Ji Chen was a Glory Lord and that many people had been born in the Ujisai Kingdom.
As far as he knew, there seemed to be a strange way for the Lords of Glory to quickly transmit messages, so he was not surprised at this time.
"The few places in the barren desert that can be inhabited are only a few large oases, scattered river banks and a few river outlets. The rest of the place is just like the name of the barren desert."
Ji Chen listened to the local snake's introduction, nodded from time to time, and had a rough impression and outline of the continent he had never set foot on.
Everything you see above the ground is a piece of yellow sand, which is filled with dangers that outsiders cannot imagine, such as sandstorms, getting lost, temperature differences between day and night, wild beasts and monsters, and hordes of horse thieves.
However, countless civilizations and relics that have disappeared in the long history are also buried in the yellow sand, waiting to be discovered and excavated by others.
It can be said that the barren desert stretching across the entire continent is a replica of the small Mediterranean, full of opportunities and crises.
But in the boundless desert, there are some oases like pearls, allowing humans to survive.
Listening to Yali's somewhat passionate words, Ji Chen became somewhat curious about that continent.
But he was just out of curiosity and had no intention of going there. Nonsense, for a profession like his that relied entirely on water, it was simply not fun to go to a place without water like the desert.
And I don’t know if it’s the influence of Tide Master’s career or other wishes, but he doesn’t like the environment that is too dry.
However, if you have the opportunity, you may be able to send caravans there to carry out commercial activities. Although the desert has poor resources, due to its unique environment, it sometimes produces some things that are rare in the outside world, and you can make considerable profits by transporting them to other continents.
"So, the naturally formed oasis feeds the entire Ujisay Kingdom?"
"No, the oasis is not naturally formed." Ari said seriously, "It is the pure land given to us by the spirit of the sand and sky, and it is a treasure for every desert people."
Ji Chen raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have heard some secret information that only the aborigines knew.
Ari seemed to have completely opened up his conversational box, showing a serious expression.
"Your Excellency, for some reason, I learned some secret information that ordinary people don't know. Let this information be regarded as your reward for helping us."
Ji Chen's interest increased greatly, secret information?
It seems that Yari's identity is not an ordinary businessman, at least he must be an aboriginal noble.
In this world, nobles have a firm grasp on knowledge and information.
"Speaking."
"A long, long time ago, so long ago that there are no records, the Southern Continent was not what it is now. Most of the area was covered by endless yellow sand.
Instead, it is a land full of water and grass, with green grass stretching to the sky. From the west coast to the east coast of the continent, it is a prosperous continent full of endless vitality. Everyone lives happily under the guidance of the spirit of Sand and Sky. "
"However, one day, a black gap suddenly opened in the sky, and endless malice like tentacles headed towards the ground, intending to devour all living creatures."
"While all living creatures were in fear, the spirits of Sand and Sky stood up for their people."
Speaking of this, Ari's face was full of pride and pride.
"The spirits of the sand and sky possess endless power, and their thoughts penetrate the heaven and the earth. With their combined efforts, the evil intentions are repelled and the cracks are blocked."
"However, the power of the battle between them was too powerful. In the process of fighting against the evil, it spread to the entire continent. The vitality of the earth was completely destroyed, and the manic yellow sand spread at a terrifying speed."
"But at the last moment before leaving, the Spirit of Sand Sky used his last bit of strength to open up several places that were not eroded by the yellow sand. These places are now several large oases in the barren desert, leaving a legacy for his people. Hope of survival.”
Listening to Yali's appearance as he recounted ancient secrets, Ji Chen felt a surge of emotion in his heart.
The information seemed to correspond to something he knew.
From the perspective of Blue Star people, some words are easy to understand.
There is a crack in the sky, and malice is heading towards the ground - doesn't this mean that some kind of existence has invaded this world?
He, the Spirit of Sand and Sky, is probably a god. After driving those malicious entities out of the world, he exhausted all his power. After using up the last bit of power, he created several large oases and then "left".
Did these gods not leave voluntarily, but because they exhausted their strength to resist the invasion, they had to leave the kingdom of God and their people behind.
And at this time, he also remembered what the ghost ship said to him.
"They" are coming back.
So does this "they" refer to the malicious existence that once invaded?
Moreover, will those malicious entities invade again?
The more he thought about it, the more Ji Chen felt uneasy in his heart.
Needless to say, even the gods, the highest point of apparent power in this world, could only repel but not kill those malicious entities, and even ran out of power and left.
Damn, do I know something extraordinary?
According to the meaning of Ghost Ship's words, it seems that he is required to develop quickly and then resist those malicious beings?
The corners of Ji Chen's mouth twitched.
Are you kidding me about another world?
After working hard for several months, I reached level 40 and now have many heroic units under my command.
Although they have a good army at least, for a power of the level of a god, it is not much more powerful than ants.
Such a big problem was thrown at him all of a sudden, which made him extremely stressed.
After finishing the conversation, Yali left the side hall, and Ji Chen leaned on the back of the sofa, his eyebrows already squeezed together.
There was a sudden sense of urgency in my heart.
If we really want to face an enemy with that kind of power, then the current development speed is far from enough, and we must increase the power of Ocean Crown faster.
Judging from the words of the ghost ship, there is probably not much time left for the malicious invasion and arrival.
Moreover, they cannot be limited to the already yellow sand of the Southern Continent, and their evil tentacles will inevitably extend to any corner of the world.
He must speed up the pace of becoming stronger!
Everything has to be sped up!
Ji Chen immediately checked the number of rare resources in stock. After the previous recruitment, the four million rare resources brought back from the Xingyao Islands were less than 200,000 units, which was not enough to even consume the next round of recruitment.
The biggest reason why he can quickly become stronger now must be the military technology tree.
Therefore, he needs to obtain more rare resources through various channels to enhance the strength of military units and hero units, and to recruit more military units.
He began to think about what information and resources he had now.
The trade in the Crown of the Ocean can steadily obtain rare resources by exporting various goods. However, although this method is stable, it takes a long time to cross the vast sea, and it is difficult to obtain a large amount of rare resources in the short term.
The dark water layer of the Great Fluorescent Sea, it is not difficult to see through the Dragon King City treasure house that it contains a large number of resources, but now he knows nothing about it, and needs to send an exploration team to explore the path first before conducting large-scale exploration.
He once obtained an adventurer's manual and learned about the underwater city of Argo, a lost civilization. According to the adventurer's notes, there was a huge amount of mithril in that underwater city.
But Argo's location is in the Eastern Mediterranean. Unless there is a quick way to travel back and forth such as a space gate, the distance is too far to explore.
The key to Megatooth City was stolen from the goblin merchant. The goblins are extremely rich, and they might get unexpected gains.
There is an elf treasure house in the ancient elf city of Gloria, but now he only has a key to the treasure house, and he doesn’t even know its location, so there is no chance for him for the time being.
The enslavement contract scroll also obtained from the goblin merchant can forcibly enslave a higher-level creature, but now it seems that there is no target worthy of his use.
The key to the Kingdom of God that can lead to a Kingdom of God, but it is extremely dangerous, and even epic-level experts dare not enter it rashly.
Thinking about it carefully, Ji Chen has many valuable things in his hands, but without exception, they are all currently difficult to use.
While thinking about it, it seems that currently only the war between the Principality of Reinhardt and the Kingdom of Bass is right in front of us and can be touched.
War can often lead to unexpected gains. If one can bite off a piece of flesh from the Kingdom of Bass, it will be enough to make the Crown of the Ocean's mouth full of fat.
So, he couldn't sit back and wait for the sea beast chaos to end.
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the sea beasts and the Kingdom of Bass being distracted by the Principality of Reinhardt, it would be wise to give him a hard blow in the back.
Calm down your mind.
Ji Chen summoned Velus.
Seeing his serious look, the loyal chief internal affairs officer also realized something.
"Give me the order, and I will leave with the army in the near future to participate in the war between the Kingdom of Bath and the Principality of Reinhardt."
"During this period, you must guard the Crown of the Ocean and wait until I return."
Wilus bent his straight back without hesitation, with a solemn expression.
"Follow your sovereign will."
One day later.
Less than two days after the shipwreck, Ari and his team once again boarded a battleship in the Crown of the Ocean.
They will separate from Ji Chen halfway and head to the Maple Forest Principality as agreed, while Ji Chen and the others will transit to the Xingyao Islands before heading towards the northwest coast of the Mediterranean where the two countries are located.
Ari had no objection to this. It seemed that for him, the sooner he could get to Maplewood Principality, the better.
Two days later.
The two parties reached the point of separation.
Ari gratefully said to Ji Chen: "Thank you for extending a helping hand to us. If you go to the Ujisai Kingdom, I will definitely repay your generosity."
Ji Chen smiled and nodded. He also wanted to thank this desert man whose identity was not very clear.
If he hadn't taken the initiative to tell some secrets buried in the dust of history, maybe he didn't realize the importance of the matter at this time and was still developing slowly.
After a brief farewell.
The fleet was separated from the army.
This time, the Ocean Crown fleet took the risk of the sea monster chaos and chose a relatively safe voyage to forcefully cross the ocean to the Maple Forest Principality.
Ji Chen also had to risk being attacked by sea beasts and headed to the northwest coast.
And that's where this massive tide of sea beasts finally arrived.
He believed that there must be something that attracted the sea beasts to go to that place, and he might be able to explore it during this trip.
Two days later, they arrived at the Shining Star Islands one day early as they sped up their journey.
During the days he left, under the suppression of Sonia and the Coral Palace army, there was no chaos here. The three Shakas faithfully implemented the policies left by Ji Chen, using commissions to mobilize the enthusiasm of the players, so that They devoted themselves to the construction of the Starry Islands.
In just a few days, the southern side of the archipelago, which was destroyed by sea monsters, took on a new look and returned to life.
The extremely unsightly slums in Xingyao City were all demolished and rebuilt, and replaced by two-story buildings, during which the residents' laughter and laughter could be faintly heard.
After briefly listening to the report, he then asked them to continue implementing the policy.
Ji Chen and his army hurriedly left the Xingyao Islands again and rushed to their destination.
The three Shakas looked at Ji Chen's leaving figure with worries in their eyes.
It's okay not to worry, because due to the master-servant contract, once the master's party dies, the servant's party will also be directly obliterated by the contract rules, which is very overbearing.
But at this time, they could only pray secretly in their hearts, hoping that Ji Chen could return safely.
The border between the Kingdom of Bath and the Principality of Reinhardt.
The night was dark and the moon was obscured by dark clouds.
On a border watchtower in the principality, soldiers stood guard holding powerful crossbows.
Suddenly, he noticed a dark shadow flickering in the jungle in the distance, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
But it was too dark to see anything.
Just when he thought it was his illusion, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the darkness, and the next second a sharp arrow shot straight through the air, and the soldier fell down in response.
In the darkness, a marksman from the Kingdom of Bath put down his strong bow with a stern look on his face.
He waved to the back.
Soon, groups of soldiers from the Kingdom of Bath in plain clothes filed out of the jungle, lowering their steps and heading towards the loopholes in the border between the two countries, with a touch of cruelty and coldness in their eyes.
But just as they were about to cross the border.
The soldier who had just been shot down by the sharpshooter suddenly stood up holding on to the railing. The moment he saw the flash of light, he subconsciously turned his body sideways, but the arrow did not hit his vital part.
At this time, the soldier endured the pain and stood up. Seeing thousands of enemy troops sneaking in, a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
The Kingdom of Bass actually wants to attack at night! ?
Damn it, we must not let them succeed!
The soldier covered his wound and quickly sounded the alarm.
Woo——
The shrill sound broke through the silence of the night, and the military camp of the Reinhard Principality suddenly exploded. A large number of soldiers put on their equipment in a panic.
The moment they saw this soldier stand up, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Bath knew that something was wrong, so they simply didn't hide it, ran with all their strength, and crossed the border to kill the enemy soldiers.
The officer raised his sword high and shouted loudly.
"All charge!"
"The first person to break into the enemy camp will be awarded a title and a bounty! You can also get an audience with His Majesty!"
"Destroy the Principality of Reinhard, today!"
"kill!"
