Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At this moment, the fleet soldiers who remained in control of the warships came into play. Under Ji Chen’s coercion and threat, they obediently began to manipulate the warships.
One by one, warships carrying elves gradually sailed into the rift.
A burst of white light flashed, and suddenly, a warm sea breeze blew in front of them. Unlike the ice-blue sea of the frozen wilderness, what appeared before the elves was a deep blue ocean. Clouds lazily floated in the sky, creating a peaceful scene.
Fish leaped out of the sea and then splashed back in, whales spouted water columns, and rainbows appeared in their wake.
Marianne looked at this scene with excitement, her eyes filled with tears.
After so many years, they finally arrived at the main world they had longed for day and night!
Ji Chen stood on the bow of the ship, and as soon as he left the frozen wilderness and arrived in this vast ocean, he could feel a powerful force rapidly gathering.
The ocean was responding to his return, and the gentle sea breeze seemed to carry a sense of joy.
His spiritual tentacles extended far and wide, sensing the undulating waves of the sea, the rippies caused by the movement of marine life as if everything were under his control.
A joyful expression appeared on Ji Chen’s face, and he couldn’t help but shout loudly.
As if in response to him, the sea suddenly raised waves tens of meters high, and numerous water columns shot into the sky. Even the unintelligent marine creatures all came towards this direction, floating on the surface of the water as if in submission.
Was this the power of the ocean?
At this moment, his power was not just the strength within his body; he also had the assistance of the ocean. Even in battle, the ocean would help him.
As long as he was in the ocean, his strength and injuries would recover rapidly, and the power of his spells would also be enhanced. Compared to before, his strength had increased several times over.
The elves looked at Ji Chen, who seemed to have triggered a response from the ocean, and a look of astonishment appeared in their eyes.
Marianne couldn’t help but show a gratified expression. With Ji Chen so powerful, Elisya would probably be safer with him, and maybe he could even tap into her full potential.
Looking back, this journey had been quite fruitful.
Not only had his main profession been promoted to the epic tier, but he also absorbed the power of the ocean. This kind of growth had brought his personal strength to a whole new peak.
Furthermore, he obtained a bottle of extremely precious Water of Life. This rare liquid from the outside world possessed incredibly potent effects and could be considered priceless.
Then there was the taming of the North Sea giant, Kraken. With the addition of this epic-tier oceanic monster, the Ocean Crown’s dominance in the sea was further solidified. Ji Chen couldn’t imagine any enemy that could kill this hundred-meter-high, extraordinarily robust, and highly regenerative sea monster when coordinated with the various units of the Ocean Crown.
Lastly, there was the unexpected delight of Elisya. Her potential was beyond question, and if she were willing to fight, she would also become a pillar of the Ocean Crown. Her epic-tier potential was proof enough of her capabilities.
After months of hard work, Ji Chen’s current strength had reached a level where he unknowingly gained the capital to climb to the pinnacle of this world.
Since his profession had already reached the epic tier, his next major goal was to raise his level to its peak. Only then would he truly possess the ability to change the course of events and protect his territory.
Ji Chen snapped out of his myriad thoughts.
Seeing that all the warships and Kraken had emerged from the spatial rift, he didn’t waste any more time.
With a sweeping gesture, he exclaimed loudly, “Forward to our destination, Kaiserven City in the Kingdom of Bass!”
With this command, the fleet began to accelerate towards their destination.
Before delivering the elves of Vale to the Maple Principality, Ji Chen needed to thoroughly resolve the conflict between the Kingdom of Bass and the Lienhardt Grand Duchy.
When Ji Chen entered the frozen wilderness, the Lienhardt army had already successfully collaborated with and received assistance from the Wasteland Guild and the Jungle Guild. They launched an attack, broke through the city gates, and successfully captured the city of Ilkand.
This second-largest city of the Kingdom of Bass and the massive supply center had now fallen into Lienhardt’s hands. This indicated that the Kingdom of Bass had completely lost its chance for a counterattack. The Lienhardt army, with abundant supplies, was in high spirits and had extremely high morale.
According to the latest reports, the Kingdom of Bass was now under siege by the three nations and had lost control of more than half of its territory. Only the capital city, Kaiserven City, and its surrounding areas were still putting up resistance, with over four hundred thousand soldiers stationed there.

These three hundred thousand soldiers of the Kingdom of Bass were equipped with the most advanced weapons provided by the Deceiver, and their combat strength was formidable and astonishing. Together with the armies supported by the Deceiver, they stopped the advances of the three nations several times.
Kaiserven City stood on the river delta where the Kingdom of Bass’ mother river, the Kaiserven River, and the largest river, the Eiben River, converged. The Eiben River allowed them to sail upstream and reach the outskirts of Kaiserven City.
Therefore, regarding this important river, the Kingdom of Bass wisely chose to consolidate its defenses. They called back the remaining five fleets and mobilized two hundred thousand troops. They relied on a large number of coastal defense cannons to block the river’s entrance, preventing the Lienhardt fleet from sailing up the Eiben River directly to the city.
In the vicinity of the mouth of the Eiben River, both sides were engaged in extremely intense and brutal battles.
On a high ground more than ten kilometers away from the river mouth, Wang Shanyue watched the distant battlefield where the thunderous sounds and billowing smoke filled the air. His expression was extremely solemn..
