A day later, Xiao Chen's fleet broke through the violent sea without any trouble and re-entered the waters of the Pearl Islands. They were going to sail to Grote Island, which was the forward base, and Xiao Chen and others could get in touch with the River Bay New City through the communication array on Grote Island.
However, when the journey was halfway through, a fleet of sea creatures appeared in front of the fleet. The one leading this fleet was the mermaid wizard Trina, who had been separated from Xiao Chen and his friends for some time.
This fleet was not large, with only five ships, but they were all high-quality fast ships built by humans. The soldiers on the ships were all extremely elite, and many of them were real masters.
Trina at this time was very different from when she separated from the ghost ship. She was no longer wearing the mermaid wizard robe, but a golden robe, and on her head, she wore a crown. In the middle of the crown, there was a huge aqua blue gem, emitting surging water magic.
Trina rushed here after receiving a report from her subordinates waiting outside the Sea of Violence. The report she received at that time said that Xiao Chen led an invincible fleet back from the Western Continent. Her first reaction was that the report was exaggerated. Although she had previously expressed her submission to Xiao Chen, she also felt that her strength was no longer the same as when they parted. How to adjust the alliance with Xiao Chen depends on the strength comparison of both sides.
But when she saw Xiao Chen's fleet, she knew she was completely wrong. Not to mention the Seven Towers of Light that was located in the middle like an island, even any other large iron ship could destroy her entire fleet. There were many medium-sized ships with countless soldiers on board. Trina's shock was indescribable. She suppressed all her restless thoughts, cast amplification magic, and respectfully said to the largest ship: "Sea Trina Queen is here to pay her respects to Master Xiao Chen."
Xiao Chen stood at the bow of the Seven Towers of Light and said loudly: "Trina, it seems that you have done a good job and did not disappoint me. Come on board and talk."
When Trina stepped onto the Seven Towers of Light, she found that her metaphor about the island was very apt.
The deck of this ship could easily accommodate the entire fleet she brought. The four towering pillars around it made the scene on the deck even more magnificent. However, what gave her the greatest sense of oppression was Xiao Chen and the group of people standing beside him.
After Trina obtained the artifact, the Sea King's Crown, and bound it to herself, her strength increased rapidly, breaking through the threshold of the Saint Rank and becoming a Saint. With the special powers of the Bay Crown, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the top expert of the Sea Clan. However, she was surprised to find that each of the more than ten people in front of her could give her a lot of pressure. That can only mean that they are all Saints.
When did saints become everywhere? And they all followed Xiao Chen and seemed to obey his orders.
The guards and ministers who followed Trina didn't even dare to breathe, and stood behind her with their heads lowered and their eyes submissive.
Trina became more respectful. She performed a humble ceremony and then said, "Master Xiao Chen, with your help, I finally unified the Sea Clan. Even the Undercurrent Alliance pledged allegiance to me. I came here today to fulfill my covenant with you. From today on, your enemies will also be my enemies."
"Congratulations, Queen Trina. I believe that when the sea tribe has a true king, earth-shaking changes will occur." Xiao Chen returned the greeting with a wizard's gift, "However, this place is far away from the center of the Pearl Islands. You were able to find me so quickly. Have you been waiting for me in the west of the Pearl Islands?"
"Yes." Trina said, "Soon after I became the Sea King, I learned important news from the mainland: the City of God has arrived. So in order to let you know the news as soon as possible, I sent a lot of people to wait for your return at the place where you might appear. I also stayed in the western part of the sea, ready to meet you at any time."
"The City of God has come to the world? What have they done in recent days? Have they started a war with the Tower of China?" Xiao Chen took a few steps forward and came to Trina.
Other people from the Tower of China, such as Luo Ling, Mao Kai, Mei Tiantian and others, immediately became nervous, and even the saints from the Western Continent who were listening gathered around.
"The first step after the arrival of the City of God is to control the various natural temples and the armies belonging to them. As for the battle with the Tower of China, it had not yet broken out before I came here. However, since they are preparing the army, the war should be coming soon. According to the intelligence we have obtained, this will be a war that will mobilize a large number of secular armies. The Empire, the Kingdom, and some southern city-states will all participate."
Xiao Chen said: "I see, thank you for your reminder, we will speed up to Grote Island. In addition to the reminder, do you have anything else to say?"
Trina said: "The sea tribe's troops have gathered in the waters near the southern city-state and are ready to fight for you at any time. But we dare not act without your permission. After all, the war between the sea tribe and humans has only been over for two hundred years. If we rashly go ashore, I am afraid it will cause unnecessary panic.
I know that the Chinese Tower's army is powerful, but you have too many enemies. The sea tribe warriors are willing to serve you."
"Oh? Are they really willing to fight for me?" Xiao Chen said.
Trina pointed to the crown on her head and said, "As long as they are willing to do this for me, it will be fine. You know that many tribes of the sea people are still in a very ignorant state. Those warriors only know to be loyal to the lord, but do not know the meaning of fighting. But it is not important. Even so, they are still the best warriors and will bravely fight the enemy to the death. As long as you can finally recognize their value, the value of the sea people, and my value, then everything will be worth it."
Xiao Chen said: "I understand. But can you control these warriors and not cause additional damage to the world on land?"
"Yes. As long as we, the royal family, control them, you will find that the warriors of the sea tribe are pure and simple, and are the most obedient soldiers."
"Well, this is a war that all races have to face together. As long as the Sea Clan can stick to their position, the Tower of China will not let you down. You will definitely gain more than you lose.
However, only when we understand the overall situation, will we selectively mobilize your forces. You should follow me to Grote Island now."
Trina bowed again and said, "As you wish, we sea people have our own way to communicate with each other. As long as you make a plan, I can notify them to join the battle."
