The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

Chapter 807: Divine Power Troops (2)

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Now that the transformation had extended the range to a full three hundred meters, it was like switching from a small sniper rifle to a Barrett.

The suffix of divine power attached to the Ocean Crystal Wyverns indicated that although they were still sixth-tier troops, four of their skills had been upgraded to gold, which was a gratifying result of the enhancement.

The appearance of the Ocean Crystal Wyverns had also undergone significant changes. Their bodies had expanded several times over, transforming from four-wheeled carts into six-wheeled trucks, much larger than even land dragons.

Within their blue crystal bodies, golden liquid-like veins flowed like blood vessels, their bodies sharply defined, filled with lines and angles, resembling sculptures crafted by masters.

Three golden hearts were distributed throughout their bodies, emitting a continuous surge of vibrant energy. Even their breath emitted particles of golden light, sparkling in the sunlight.

If it weren’t for their rich oceanic aura, outsiders might mistake them for troops of the Radiant Church.

“Wilus, from now on, arrange for people to constantly pour rare resources, nurturing these divine power trees to grow. I need more divine power crystals.”

This statement awakened the stunned Wilus, who hastily responded.

Two hundred miles east of the western continent coastline.

The sea was anything but calm, as three squads of winged demons besieged more than ten ships fleeing in panic towards the east.

Sailors and guards struggled to operate ballistae on the decks, aiming and repeatedly pulling the triggers at the enemy.

“Several winged demons are diving down on the left, focus fire and shoot!” “We’re out of bolts, hurry to the cargo hold to get more!”

“Report, there is no more ammunition in the cargo hold, it’s all used up!”

“Damn it… Ah!”

Listening to the screams and cries coming from above, the dwarves in the cargo hold trembled in fear, dwarf children hiding in their mothers’ arms, male dwarves protecting their female counterparts and dwarf cubs inside.

“Elder, I think the humans might not hold out much longer. Should we go out and help them?” Dwarf guards clustered around a burly dwarf, nervously asking.

Since boarding the ship and leaving the western continent, these three squads belonging to the Decay Lord’s flying demon legion had set their sights on them. Fortunately, these human ships, belonging to the Starshine Commerce Guild, were sturdy enough, and their armament was relatively sufficient.

However, with only limited ballistae and bows, there was simply no way to pose an effective threat to the powerful demons who had air superiority. Rather than saying the demons were killing, it was more like they were toying with them.

The dwarf elder also realized the urgency of the situation and led dozens of dwarf guards onto the deck to help resist the demon attacks.

Seeing the dwarves coming out, the ship’s guard captain, in a frenzy, shouted, “What are you doing out here!?”

The dwarf elder hammered a winged demon swooping down with a hammer, full of vigor, and said, “We can’t let those who help us fight alone. Dwarves are not a race afraid of death!”

“You!” The guard captain gritted his teeth, “Don’t blame me if you die!”

They received orders to move from the Starshine Islands to the western continent and successfully located the dwarven tribe living in the mountains. With the pretext of the demon invasion, they persuaded the dwarven tribe to relocate to the New Moon Islands.

Everything went smoothly with this matter, but unfortunately, shortly after boarding and leaving the western continent, they happened to encounter these several squads of winged demons, which was extremely unlucky.

“Have you requested assistance from the guild?”

Gasping for breath, the guards clustered nearby replied, “We sent out a distress signal when the demons appeared, but it’s difficult for reinforcements to arrive in such a short time, considering the distance.”

A sense of despair appeared on the face of the guard captain. In just a few hours, their more than ten ships were likely to be sunk by the demons.

Despite the efforts of the sailors and guards, there was no sign of the demons in the sky decreasing. They flew through the sky like a swarm of locusts.

The sharp claws of the winged demons could easily tear through their bodies, crossbows were destroyed one after another, guards fell on the deck, and even many dwarves perished. The firepower erupting from the deck became weaker and weaker.

It seemed that the winged demons were tired of playing. The remaining winged demons swarmed out, ready to engulf the dozen or so ships loaded with dwarves.

Swoosh-

Thousands of golden beams of light shot into the battlefield like lightning. The extreme heat directly vaporized a squad of winged demons, and crystal wyverns, resembling ancient beasts, swooped in from the side.

They tore the winged demons apart with their claws, vaporized them with beams of light, and even used crystal wings as sharp as claws to slice the enemy in half.

Like wolves among sheep, the once arrogant and domineering winged demons were helpless. In just a few minutes, they were completely wiped out.

The guard captain quickly jumped aside, avoiding a winged demon falling from the sky.

Looking down, he suddenly felt chills all over his body. The chest of the winged demon had a terrifyingly large hole, and only its edges remained, reminding him of a square bun that had been gnawed clean, leaving only the hard parts around the edges.

A dwarven elder stepped forward and spoke solemnly.

“Are these troops yours?”

The guard captain nodded, looking at the dragons flying in the sky, shimmering with golden light, with reverence in his eyes.

“Yes, that should be the elite army under Lord Ji Chen’s command.”

Lord Ji Chen?

The dwarven elder fell silent. He had heard this name mentioned frequently by these humans recently, always with reverence, admiration, and fear.

These humans told him that it was Lord Ji Chen who ordered them to go to the western continent to find them. At first, they were unwilling to leave until they saw a weapon forged with the technique of Black Iron Fortress.

Black Iron Fortress, the place where their ancestors lived thousands of years ago, later declined for some reason, and the remaining dwarves migrated to the western continent to evade enemies. Until today, they had to leave because of the demons.

Was the territory called the Crown of the Sea really the dwelling place of their dwarves?

A dragon slowly descended, and on its back, Patheia looked at them coldly.

“The Lord has ordered me to escort you back to the Crown of the Sea.”

The guard captain dared not delay and hurriedly said, “But there are many wounded, and some ships are severely damaged…”

“It doesn’t matter. The Lord has sent the giant turtle to assist. If the ships are too severely damaged, then abandon them and board the giant turtle for the return journey,” Patheia said gravely. “I have received intelligence that the decay demon legion has arrived near the coast, which may pose a threat to you.”

The guard captain’s expression changed as he glanced at the giant turtle. Despite not knowing what it was, he refrained from arguing and promptly went to carry out the orders.

Soon, a huge turtle appeared before the astonished eyes of the guards and the dwarves.

So, it really was a giant turtle!?

Seeing them in a daze, Patheia frowned and urged, “Quickly board the giant turtle; time is running out.”

Only then did the guard captain and the dwarven elder awaken from their stupor and nod hastily.

An hour after the giant turtle carried thousands of dwarves and guards away from the area, ten squads of high-level winged demons arrived.

Seeing the bodies of winged demons floating on the sea and several abandoned ships, they realized they were too late.

“Lord, what should we do next?”

“These human insects run quite fast. Go back and report to Lord Zlatko, let him decide on the next plan,” the demon leader said with hatred. “We will eventually exterminate these two-legged cattle and make them slaves for generations to come!”

“But now we have lost two demon kings, and the undead legion, which had the strongest land power, has collapsed in a riot. The situation seems unfavorable for us demons…”

“It is indeed so in the Central Ocean.”

The demon leader shook his head. “But in reality, we have a great advantage on land. The lawful camp is no match for us, and the goblins are being pushed back by us. Soon, we will push the front line northward by hundreds of miles.

As long as we continue to acquire resources, we will surely achieve final victory.”

The winged demon attendant hesitated, “But how should we deal with the human strongman who killed the Undead Lord and the Dreadlord?”

“We don’t need to deal with him ourselves; there are higher beings to handle that.” The demon leader pointed cruelly to the sky.

The winged demon attendant’s eyes lit up. Higher beings? Could it be…

The demon leader chuckled.

“This time, we’re just trying to lure that human out. That way, we’ll find an opportunity.. With those beings intervening, that human strongman is doomed to die!”
