The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

Chapter 837: The First Conflict, That Man!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ji Chen, who was discussing with Wilus about further strengthening the defense capabilities of the Crown of the Ocean, suddenly looked up and glanced outside.

“What’s wrong, sir?”

Ji Chen sighed softly, murmuring with a hint of regret and anticipation.

“The day has finally come.”

Seeing Ji Chen’s unprecedented expression, Wilus seemed to realize something, his face drastically changing.

“Arc the Oceanic Deities coming?”

Ji Chen nodded slightly.

“They can’t sit still anymore.”

Originally, he thought the Oceanic Deities would arrive later.

“Wilus, the Crown of the Ocean must immediately enter the highest level of alert, and all personnel must enter shelter status. Activate the camouflage systems of important facilities such as the Divine Power Tree Grove, the port, the city hall, and the strategic warehouse.”

“All troops must be on combat alert, and all defense facilities must be activated.”

“Yes!”

When the indigenous people and players who came to trade at the New Moon Islands heard the sudden piercing alarm, they immediately dropped what they were doing and headed for the safety of the Crown of the Ocean deep within the islands.

Within a dozen breaths, the Oceanic Deity forces, which poured forth to take over the entire island, were also stunned.

What was happening? Were the demons attacking? But weren’t the demons already on their last legs?

It wasn’t until squads of fully armed lizardmen soldiers ran over with solemn expressions that the players began to understand.

“Everyone, please follow us to take shelter.”

Upon hearing the urgency in their voices, the players hurriedly asked, “What’s going on?”

“…We’ve received orders from the Lord. The Divine Realm army is about to attack the Crown of the Ocean. The New Moon Islands are about to be engulfed in warfare and become a battleground.”

The players were astonished. “Is it the Dark Empire’s army?”

“No, it’s the Oceanic Deity’s divine army.”

???

The players were full of question marks, everyone was stunned.

Wasn’t the Oceanic Deity part of the Orderly Divine Lineage? Why were they attacking their own people?

If anyone among humans had made the greatest contribution, it was undoubtedly Ji Chen. When the lizardmen soldiers said this, they all wondered if they had misheard.

Why would they launch an attack on a hero who had contributed significantly without seeking any recognition or reward?

“Why attack when Ji Chen, who had single-handedly defeated three Demon Lords, crushed three demon legions, and achieved such remarkable feats and victories?”

“It’s not yet clear what’s going on, but the Lord’s words must be correct… If you don’t want to lose your lives, you’d better go to the shelter as soon as possible.”

The lizardmen soldiers didn’t say much more and quickly left to inform other residents of the Crown of the Ocean and outsiders.

The players looked at each other and followed the crowd to the shelter. Although they didn’t fully understand what was happening, the matter between the Divine Army and Ji Chen was not something they could intervene in.

Most of the residents of the Crown of the Ocean were successfully evacuated and took refuge, while the military forces formed formations and hovered over the New Moon Islands, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

Soon, the sky was abruptly filled with a towering ring of deep blue light, surrounded by a swirling vortex of countless stars. One by one, the awe-inspiring naval forces of the Oceanic Divine Realm emerged, sending shivers down the spines of all who beheld them.

There were the Trident-bearing Naga of the Nine Abysses, the merciless Executioners of the Fearful Crabs, the dreadful Death Krakens, the Nine-headed Sea Hydras, the Void Leviathans…

These ancient military units, depicted in terrifying murals adorning the walls of churches, emitted an aura of power that shook all who witnessed their arrival.

That momentum, surpassing all mortal beings, swept across the entire New Moon Islands like an eighteen-level gale.

Before those divine armies, there were commanding officers of the divine army standing tall, each with a sturdy physique, enchanting demeanor, or captivating appearance, holding their respective emblems.

Looking down on the New Moon Islands from above, their pupils, filled with restrained divine light, exuded coldness, anger, disdain, and sarcasm.

But there was no trace of anxiety or hesitation, only a sense of superiority.

In their eyes, mortals were nothing more than lambs confined to the sheepfold called the world. Their task was to obediently provide faith and power to the gods, allowing the gods to continue their existence and granting them even greater power.

Obedient lambs could receive appropriate rewards to serve the gods more diligently.

Rebellious lambs would be identified and punished to make them realize their mistakes and return to the right path.

As for the lambs that were unrepentant and had lost their value for salvation, there was no need to hesitate to deliver divine punishment promptly, demonstrating the inviolable majesty of the gods through destruction and death.

Using this territory as an example, as a small price to warn other lambs to behave, this was already the generosity and tolerance of the gods, and the lambs needed to recognize this.

They looked at the Ocean Crown army below, fully alert, and sneered one after another.

What a bunch of rubbish troops, still putting on a show of desperate resistance, malting themselves a laughingstock!

As soon as they arrived, it signaled the inevitable outcome for this territory. Even though the gods had warned that if the territory persisted in its defiance and foolish actions, it would be forcefully subdued.

But they believed that the gods would prefer not to see this territory continue to exist in the world. Therefore, they naturally had to obey the hidden intentions of their masters and directly bring destruction and death upon it..
