Chapter 276: The Might of the Tyrant Azure Dragon, a Familiar Figure (2)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
This creature was a genuine sea monster, with every aspect of its body and organs seemingly designed for one purpose: destruction. Even just its presence, floating on the water’s surface, exerted tremendous pressure on anyone who encountered it.
One, two, three…
The golden pyramid only began to close once the three Tyrant Azure Dragons were positioned in front of it.
As Ji Chen gazed upon these three creatures, he couldn’t help but believe that the resources invested in them were truly worthwhile!
Leaving aside their strength, just their size and appearance alone were enough to be intimidating.
With this, the Crown of the Ocean had a high-end combat unit.
Ji Chen’s excitement grew as he thought about testing the power of these Tyrant Azure Dragons.
He promptly approached the head of one of the dragons, manipulating the seawater to create a watertight shield around it. With a simple gesture, he ordered them to submerge into the water.
As soon as they were fully submerged, the seemingly short and thick fin limbs on the sides of the Tyrant Azure Dragons erupted with tremendous strength. With just a gentle stroke, their entire bodies leaped forward.
Their tails, which accounted for almost half of their body length, perfectly matched the swimming style of fish, providing a second source of propulsion, much like a crocodile wagging its tail.
Wherever they went, all the fish and low-level monsters were frightened and scattered in all directions by the enormous bodies and imposing presence of the Tyrant Azure Dragons. Some even trembled in place, afraid to move.
Ji Chen just glanced at them casually and ordered the Tyrant Azure Dragons to continue swimming.
These low-level monsters weren’t worth his time.
In just a few minutes, they had already traveled dozens of kilometers and could see the boundary of the Stormy Sea in the distance.
In the shallower regions of the Stormy Sea, following the daily sweeps and patrols by the Ocean Crown’s forces, high-level and prominent monsters had mostly vanished. They were either defeated, driven off, or retreated to the deeper sea to survive.
After some consideration, he commanded the Tyrant Azure Dragons to continue swimming toward the outer part of the sea.
Outside the Stormy Sea, the density and strength of monsters were still quite high. At the very least, they were all above the second tier, and there were also quite a few third and fourth-tier creatures.
After only a short time, Ji Chen saw a group of fish monsters swimming towards them from not far away.
[Toothfish Fiends]
[Race]: Toothfish
[Tier]: Third Tier, 3 stars
[Level]: 15
[Skills]: N/A
[Mutated Toothfish with a strong desire for group combat]
These mutated Toothfish Fiends are relatively common in the nearby waters, much like marching ants on land, with thousands and even tens of thousands appearing each time.
Although their tier isn’t high, their sheer numbers deter many higher-tier monsters from approaching.
They typically don’t attack large floating objects like ships, but when it comes to aquatic creatures, they show no mercy and have a strong inclination to attack.
At this moment, tens of thousands of Toothfish Fiends gathered closely together, their mouths filled with fine, sharp teeth, moving vigorously toward their prey.
Any other fish or creatures that couldn’t escape in time were swarmed by them, leaving only bones behind.
At this moment, they saw three exceptionally enormous “fish” appearing in front of them, swimming directly towards them, and couldn’t help but get excited.
Such a large prey would be enough to satisfy their entire group.
Suddenly, the school of Toothfish Fiends accelerated, charging towards their “prey”.
Ji Chen watched as this group of Toothfish Fiends didn’t flee but instead rushed towards them. Instead of feeling alarmed, he was rather pleased.
“Tyrant Azure Dragon, take them down.”
With a command, the three enraged Azure Dragons also accelerated. When they were only a hundred meters away from the enemy, they opened their huge mouths and spewed out a frosty blue breath.
[Skill]: Icy Breath (Red-tier skill, capable of spraying icy breath that inflicts massive damage to the enemy’s physical and spiritual aspects)
The three streams of icy breath spread in the water like spreading paint, rapidly freezing the seawater in a fan-shaped pattern. The approaching Toothfish Fiend group was frozen in ice, forming a conical iceberg that slowly sank into the deep sea.
“Ding- Your army has killed a group of Toothfish Fiends (Third Tier, 3 stars), gaining 4,800 experience points.”
“Ding- Your army: Tyrant Azure Dragon has gained 5,800 experience points.”
Due to the tier and level suppression, killing so many Toothfish Fiends only yielded a negligible amount of experience.
But Ji Chen was still very happy.
The performance of the Tyrant Azure Dragon exceeded his expectations. With just a breath, it killed tens of thousands of Toothfish Fiends.
The destructive power displayed by these three Tyrant Azure Dragons was even higher than that of all the other troops under the Crown of the Ocean combined.
In high spirits, he continued to search for more sea creatures.
Wherever they went, the sea creatures were either frozen into icebergs or torn apart and devoured by the gaping maws of the dragons.
It wasn’t until he had his fill of killing that he planned to return.
When he turned around, he was somewhat astonished.
Unconsciously, they had already moved quite a distance from the Stormy Sea, almost ten nautical miles away.
Ji Chen slapped his head; it seemed he had left Alice and the others waiting at the port.
With a wave of his hand, he began urging the Tyrant Azure Dragons to return.
Perched atop the mighty Azure Dragon’s wide back, he was surrounded by a water-repelling shield, which shielded him from the water’s pressure and the turbulence caused by their movement through it.
This was something he could achieve only after his spell control had reached a new level.
Watching the bubbles created by the rapid movement outside, he began to consider whether he should build a small house on the back of the Azure Dragon.
This way, he could ride around on it, looking impressive and dignified.
While others built small pavilions on the backs of dragons, he could do the same on the Tyrant Azure Dragon, which still had the word “dragon” in its name.
Perhaps in this fantastical world, the Azure Dragon was indeed a branch of some kind of dragon evolution.
Just as Ji Chen had made up his mind to go back and instruct craftsmen to design a small house, he suddenly sensed a group of lowly sea Murlocs attacking a three-masted warship in the distance.
The number of sea Murlocs reached over a thousand, and they were climbing up one after another, attempting to board the ship.
However, the person commanding the ship was very organized. With a relatively small number of soldiers, they managed to keep the sea Murlocs at bay below the ship’s railing, killing and injuring countless of them.
Out of curiosity, Ji Chen floated up to the sea’s surface from a distance and looked over.
It seemed to be a ship belonging to a lord?
He felt that this group of sea Murlocs shouldn’t be able to breach the ship’s defenses. Ji Chen decided to quietly slip away into the sea.
However, at this moment, he suddenly saw a familiar figure on the ship?
He took a closer look.
Wasn’t that I_Love_Black_Stockings?
How could she be here!?
Although he was quite surprised, his relationship with I_Love_Black_Stockings was decent, so he couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
Immediately, he sent one of the Tyrant Azure Dragons over to deal with the sea Murlocs, instructing it not to harm l_Love_Black_Stockings’ ship.
“Team Three, hold the line and wield your weapons. Stab these stupid sea Murlocs down!”
“Team Six, replace Team Two, and come back to heal!”
“Mage team, conserve your mana and focus your spells in the densely packed areas of the enemy! Try to inflict maximum damage on these ugly creatures!” l_Love_Black_Stockings directed her crew while occasionally uttering some words with an elegant tone.
Seeing the various teams orderly defending against the Murlocs, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She glanced at the chat window with the Big Boss Islander but saw that there was still no reply, which made her sigh.
Considering the risks she had taken to cross the ocean for this visit, it would be comical if she couldn’t even get through the gates of the territory.
Along with her sighs came worries.
The Big Boss Islander had previously invited her, so he should have seen the messages she sent…
But looking at the current situation, with no response for such a long time, could it be that something had gone wrong?
Thinking about it, l_Love_Black_Stockings’ heart tightened, and she dared not think any further.
If even a powerhouse of the Big Boss Islander’s level had encountered an accident, that would be an extraordinary situation..
