The crowd immediately covered his mouth. “For heaven’s sake, don’t jinx us! I don’t want to die yet!”

Suddenly, the fleet sounded a piercing alarm. They exchanged glances and promptly got up to go to the deck to see what was happening.

A Paladin of the Holy Light Sect descended from the sky onto the deck, his landing reverberating loudly.

The Paladin spoke arrogantly, “You, deal with the sea beasts following us right away. Take care of them first before catching up.”

With that, regardless of whether the players agreed or not, he kicked his horse’s belly and ascended into the air, leaving.

The young player scoffed, “d.a.m.n, these fanatics really don’t know how to treat people properly. I bet they’ll crash sooner or later.”

“Being in a difficult position, there’s nothing we can do about it,” sighed the guild leader. “Let’s quickly go deal with those sea beasts, so those fanatics won’t come bothering us again.”

The wars.h.i.+p broke away from the fleet and headed towards the pursuing sea beasts. Soon, they encountered a wave of relentless pursuers.

These sea beasts weren’t particularly strong, mostly at the second or third tier, while they had dozens of cannons and several elite squads of fourth-tier hundred-men teams, making it quite easy to deal with them.

The cannons thundered, blasting the sea beasts upside down. Soldiers leaped from the wars.h.i.+p and quickly killed all the pursuing sea beasts.

The guild leader wiped the sweat off his forehead, which was drenched by the scorching sun. “That’s it for today. Let the sailors quickly change direction so we don’t fall behind the fleet of those fanatics.”

“Yes, sir!”

Meanwhile, above the clouds, a squadron of ten Sea Crystal Wyrms flew in a V formation, their gem-like blood-red eyes scanning the sea surface, trying to spot any anomalies.

But no matter how they looked, all they saw was an endless expanse of azure sea.

Several reconnaissance teams composed of thousands of people formed a reconnaissance network, which was nothing compared to this vast ocean. Hundreds of such reconnaissance teams were scattered in the sea east of the Stormy Sea, searching towards the east.

The ocean was just too vast, making it as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack to locate a fleet that had set off at an unknown time, with an unknown route, and without a trace.

After completing their scheduled reconnaissance range, the squadron of ten Sea Crystal Wyrms decisively flapped their crystalline wings to return. However, after flying a short distance, they suddenly saw a s.h.i.+p on the azure sea beneath the clouds.

On the immaculate sails of that s.h.i.+p was engraved a golden eye emblem.

—That was the emblem of the Holy Light Sect, signifying the gaze of the G.o.ddess of Light.

The s.h.i.+p was sailing northwestward as if pursuing a certain target. The squadron of Sea Crystal Wyrms immediately changed direction and began to slowly track the s.h.i.+p from above the clouds.

Soon, they saw the vast fleet stretching for several miles. The golden eye emblems engraved on the sails formed a continuous expanse, dazzling under the sunlight.

“Lord! We’ve spotted the fleet of the Holy Light Sect!”

Alice hurriedly walked in, her expression joyful.

Ji Chen looked up, a bit surprised.

“You found it so quickly?”

When he learned that it was a squadron of Sea Crystal Wyrms that had accidentally discovered a lone s.h.i.+p of the Holy Light Sect on their return journey, and followed it to discover the fleet, he couldn’t help but smile.

Indeed, this turned out to be quite the guide. If an opportunity arose later, he’d owe this s.h.i.+p a thank-you.

Now that they had found the fleet of the Holy Light Sect, there was no need to hesitate. Instead of waiting for other fleets to come to their doorstep and spread the flames of war to their territory, it was better to take the initiative, keeping the enemy out of the country’s borders.

“Pa.s.s my command, deploy all main forces of the Ocean Crown. Ensure to block the fleet of the Holy Light Sect a hundred miles away!”

With this command, the Ocean Crown, already in a state of war mobilization, quickly accelerated into action. Troops emitting a formidable aura rose into the air, flying over the territory and heading to the open sea.

Naga Iron Colossus, Ocean Blood Dragon, Dragon Hom Beast, Sea Crystal Wyrm… Rarely seen on ordinary days, these main forces were now flying in formation in the sky, stunning many pa.s.sing s.h.i.+ps.

Following closely behind were squads of Lobster Guardian Knights, Heavy Armor Toothfish Knights, Lobster Nymph Spirit Archers, and Leviathan Dragons, rus.h.i.+ng over the sea, creating waves of turbulent water.

At this moment, they all had one question in mind.

Who was the fool who dared to provoke the Ocean Crown?

On the flags.h.i.+p of the fleet of the Holy Light Sect.

“Bishop, we are only about a hundred miles away from the New Moon Islands. We will soon enter the waterway, and by then those pa.s.sing merchant s.h.i.+ps will discover us.”

Plas waved his hand indifferently. “Even if they see us, it’s useless. That territory absolutely wouldn’t expect us to be here, with no time for preparation. All they can expect is destruction.”

“It’s a perfect opportunity to show the strength of our Holy Light Sect to those merchant s.h.i.+ps, spreading our reputation and attracting more believers!”

A senior steward flattered, “You’re absolutely right, those evils will surely be purified by our Holy Light Sect. Our reputation will spread throughout the entire Mid-Ocean!”

Plas burst into laughter. “Let the believers speed up. Once we enter the waterway, advance at the fastest speed and catch the enemy off guard!”

Suddenly, there was a deafening roar outside, accompanied by screams.

“Enemy attack!”

Above the clouds, thousands of Ocean Crown troops flew leisurely, hiding their figures within the clouds.

Below the clouds, the fleet of the Holy Light Sect was slowly sailing on the sea surface, with the believers on deck chatting and laughing, showing no sign of tension for battle.

Although they were called believers, they looked nothing like believers. Each of them was burly, with their chests bare, bald-headed strongmen leaning against the s.h.i.+p’s railing with iron axes, discussing how much fun they could have on this journey.

The bishop had already told them in advance that once they breached that territory, they would be allowed to plunder and revel for three days and nights. They eagerly antic.i.p.ated chopping off the heads of their enemies with axes, purifying evil with blood, so they could attract the attention and blessing of the G.o.ds.

“The last time those heretics surrendered too quickly. How dull. This time, I’ll have to chop off a couple more heads.” A scar-faced fanatic, wielding an axe, grinned viciously.

“I hope this time will be more fun…” Another fanatic smirked lewdly. “I want to purify a big one properly this time. Only then can we truly cleanse the evil.”

Talking about battle and plunder always made their blood boil. These days of being able to wors.h.i.+p the G.o.ddess and enjoy themselves were simply fantastic.

The scar-faced fanatic was about to say something else when he suddenly caught sight of many black dots appearing in the sky, growing larger and larger, causing his pupils to shrink suddenly.

“Enemies!!”

Sea Crystal Wyrms opened their translucent mouths, and beams of light shot into the unprepared fleet in an instant. The fanatics on the deck were instantly vaporized by the extreme heat, leaving behind only fragments of limbs.

The beams not only pierced through the decks but also penetrated the wooden hulls at the bottom, causing the sea to rush into the watertight compartments.

Just as the fanatics panicked and attempted to retaliate, the second wave of attacks arrived without any pause.

Sea Crystal Wyrms spewed out thick red lightning bolts, beginning their first battle with enhanced ferocity. The lightning exploded on the deck like bursting sh.e.l.ls, electrocuting dozens of fanatics into charred remains.

Following closely, blue-scaled giant dragons, each over ten meters long, swooped down. Deep blue dragon flames plowed through the deck like farming machines, carving out paths of blood.

Flesh melted, souls annihilated.

The screams were brief and soon silenced.

Naga Iron Colossi flapped their wings and swiftly descended. With their bone blades empowered by speed, they became terrifying weapons, sending heads soaring into the sky, decapitating the fanatics attempting to retaliate one by one.

Plas had just stepped out of the cabin when he witnessed this gruesome and b.l.o.o.d.y scene.
