When Ji Chen and his companions appeared, a look of pleasant surprise washed over Anina’s face as she stood on the top floor of the castle.

The Lord had finally returned!

A few days ago, when they had spotted these unfamiliar enemies through the warning lighthouse, she realized their malevolent intent. Immediately, she ordered the evacuation of many residents of the Crown of the Ocean to the Kobold caves and the underground Lizardmen world for refuge.

She led the remaining defending forces to withstand the enemy’s onslaught.

However, facing the formidable firepower of the enemy’s warships and the sheer number and average strength of their soldiers, even her personal strength couldn’t withstand the direct assault of the cannons. Thus, they had to retreat, step by step, back to the Lord’s castle.

Although they had temporarily held the castle, without reinforcements, it was only a matter of time before it would be breached.

But fortunately, the Lord had returned in the nick of time. At this moment, her heart, as well as the hearts of others, hung in suspense, but now they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as the Lord was here, no enemy was invincible.

This unwavering belief had supported them through many victories.

Morale surged suddenly, stabilizing the Lord’s castle.

However, Ferode had no time to pay attention to these developments. His whole body was tense, and his expression was incredibly serious because he had been completely locked onto by this Lord of Glory.

If he made even the slightest move, he would undoubtedly be subjected to a storm of attacks.

Damn it!

Ferode had seen those Lords of Glory before and naturally knew their despicable nature and feeble strength.

Up until now, he hadn’t paid any attention to those guys at all.

But at this moment, he completely reconsidered.

How could there be a Lord of Glory with such immense power?

Not only did he dispatch two escort ships at lightning speed, annihilating them without a survivor, but he also prevented them from sending out a distress signal.

Among the many Lords of Glory, this was truly an exceptional and unusual occurrence!

Ferode admitted that at this moment, he felt somewhat intimidated.

The bravado and revenge-driven mindset from before had quietly disappeared.

Doubts crept into his mind.

He had just started thinking about how to escape when he quickly dismissed the idea.

He had brought his fleet into someone else’s territory, and he had set a fire that had nearly destroyed half the domain, causing hundreds of casualties among their soldiers. He had even been prepared to breach the Lord’s castle where they found shelter.

In essence, he had done everything to draw their hatred.

After deep contemplation, Ferode reluctantly managed to muster an awkward smile, tossing his weapon to the ground and raising his hands.

“I surrender!”

This left the chief of staff, who had been prepared to sacrifice himself for his country, dumbfounded, his eyes filled with disbelief.

His subordinates were ready to fight to the death, so why was their commanding officer surrendering first?

Even with the chief of staff’s excellent qualities, he couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

“What the hell happened to your earlier ambitions? Weren’t you the one who said you’d take down this Lord of Glory and redeem your honor?

How come you’re surrendering before the battle even starts?

What a disgrace!”

Feeling the gaze of the Lord of Glory fixed upon him, the chief of staff took a deep breath and also cast aside his weapon. “1 surrender too!”

Seeing their top two commanders surrender, the other soldiers of the Kingdom of Bass exchanged bewildered glances and began to surrender as well.

Then, under Ji Chen’s threat, the four warships that had blockaded the New Moon Islands from the other three directions, following Ferode’s orders, came to the harbor and were unexpectedly seized by the prepared soldiers of the Crown of the Ocean. The soldiers on board became captives.

This abrupt battle ended in a dramatic fashion.

Ferode and his companions were disarmed and placed in cages, awaiting their fate.

Inside the Lord’s castle, Ji Chen sat in the main seat, listening to the report that had come from Wilus, who had returned from the Kobold caves.

At this moment, Wilus didn’t look well at all. His face was marked by an unmistakable sense of discouragement.

“Lord, this time, the Crown of the Ocean has suffered the heaviest losses since its establishment.

The Bass Kingdom’s army launched an attack from the east of the New Moon Islands, using long-range artillery to destroy all wooden warships and subsequently the fortress on the northeast sub-island.

After causing extensive damage to defensive structures like the Elemental Arrow Tower, they landed through the harbor… and along the way, they burned down a large number of residential houses. Preliminary estimates indicate that over seventy percent of the housing has been burned or destroyed.

Our military recruitment camps have also suffered severe damage. Two Murloc Ranger camps, one Giant Octopus recruitment camp, ten Self-Detonating Water Spider camps, and two Deep Sea Prowler camps have all been reduced to ruins due to indiscriminate artillery fire. The rest of the recruitment camps have varying degrees of damage.”

As he spoke, a trace of sorrow crossed Wilus’s face. “The losses among the garrisoned troops were even more devastating. All Ruins Guardians were destroyed during the harbor defense, and the Ocean Guardians are now reduced to fifty. Sky Guardians have also suffered significant losses, with less than half remaining.

Half-Orc Warriors and Lizardmen joined in the harbor defense and endured the onslaught of the second artillery bombardment. Except for His Excellency Daro’s survival despite severe injuries, all other Half-Orc Warriors perished under the artillery fire. Four thousand Lizardmen Warriors saw three thousand casualties, and their formations were shattered.

All Self-Detonating Water Spiders and Murloc Rangers sacrificed themselves to buy precious time for the retreat of the remaining troops, allowing them to fall back to the Lord’s castle.”

Ji Chen’s heart sank as he realized the extent of the losses for the Ocean’s Crown. This time, the defending army had suffered nearly catastrophic casualties, with thousands of troops reduced to just a few hundred. Even Daro’s Half-Orc warriors had all perished under the relentless artillery fire, leaving him as a commander without a force to lead..
