Chapter 455: I Think I’m Throwing the Game

Witch, I Swear I’m Not a Deep Sea Ancient God!

Blood Lion turned his head, glancing at the elegant figure at the far end of the deck.

A man clad in crimson armor, with a long red braid and golden dragon-like eyes, was holding a glass of red wine, drinking it heartily.

Red Dragon, like the Black Hunter, was a newly ascended fifth-tier Goblet affinity Transcendent Chimera.

He had achieved unprecedented military exploits on the battlefield where the Black Blood Empire fought the Goldenfinch Kingdom. He had personally slain a forest titan with fifth-tier strength and single-handedly taken on everyone in a border city of the Goldenfinch Kingdom!

His profession itself was the complete form of Chimera: a dragonkin.

To support the Witch Sea, Blood Lion had expended great effort to recruit this new generation fifth-tier powerhouse.

And Red Dragon possessed a special inspiration talent called 'Gluttonous Dragon', an ability that allowed him to devour the flesh and blood of powerful beings to continuously strengthen himself.

And the deep-sea titans of the Witch Sea were the best flesh and blood!

However, ever since arriving in the waters of the Witch Sea, some of the deep-sea titans that were once here had completely vanished, their whereabouts completely unknown.

Based on past experience, as the dimensional rifts continued to expand, these powerful entities that foraged in the deep sea should have surfaced after sensing the resources from the rifts.

These titans were fearing some power... Red Dragon swirled his glass of red wine.

The only deep-sea titan with any trace was the Black Hunter's Deep-Sea Twelve-Tentacles.

Furthermore, the bodies of fifth-tier Transcendents were themselves targets for digestion.

It was these various benefits that made Red Dragon travel thousands of miles to come here.

Blood Lion retracted his probing gaze:

"Red Dragon, maintain reverence. The Black Hunter's profession is Sea Shepherd, a Beast Tamer profession born for the sea.

On land, he is no match for you, but on the sea, both you and I must maintain reverence."

Red Dragon stood up:

"As you command, General Blood Lion! Rest assured, I'm just testing the Black Hunter's power, I won't engage in a deep battle."

Their goal was to destroy all structures and living forces in Moonstone City, so that the people of Beiguo could no longer compete with them for the vast resources of the Dimensional Tide.

They had no need to fight the Black Hunter to the death.

In war, life-or-death battles between fifth-tier Transcendents rarely occurred.

After all, every fifth-tier Transcendent had undergone lengthy cultivation.

Especially fifth-tiers who had mastered domains; every life-or-death battle, even if victorious, would leave eternal scars on them!

Hayer versus Blood Lion, the Ice Witch versus the Blood Hunter, the Whale Father waiting for the right moment to destroy everything...

And I'm just delaying the Black Hunter, that's not difficult at all... Red Dragon thought.

Blood Lion nodded and stretched out his hand:

"Then, from now on, we split into two forces."

Under Blood Lion's direction, the fleet divided into two groups.

Among them, the War Ship, plus two thousand warships, and the Black God troops led by the Blood Hunter, densely packed, all headed towards the bridgehead of this sea, Moonstone City.

Meanwhile, five hundred warships turned one after another, charging towards the location of Chen Qi and the Ice Witch's base, the Damarro Islands.

"All soldiers! Ready your weapons!!!"

"In half an hour, your enemies will appear before you!!"

Blood Lion shouted loudly.

The densely packed fleet erupted with an unprecedented roar.

Red Dragon spread his dragon wings behind him, took out his rift weapon, and leaped onto a warship.

Suddenly, Red Dragon, with his high inspiration, heard some strange noises amidst this boiling sea.

"Run! Run! Run!"

"Don't go over! Absolutely don't go over!!"

What does that mean? Is it telling me not to go? Red Dragon inexplicably felt these voices sounded somewhat familiar.

However, he scanned around but couldn't determine any source.

More rift noises?

Because of the collapse of the A-rank rift, causing massive leaks of supernatural power, strange noises often appeared over the sea.

This noise was so difficult for even the highly inspired Red Dragon to pinpoint its direction.

Just what is happening on this sea... Red Dragon stroked his chin, making a curious expression as he headed towards the Black Hunter's direction.

......

Damarro Islands.

News of the impending war quickly spread among everyone on the islands.

Everyone immediately entered a state of war, rushing to the island's circular defensive arrays, while the fleet led by Palu also immediately entered wartime status.

On the island's circular city wall, the Ice Witch asked:

"Little blonde, does the Meteorological Bureau have their specific movements?"

In a state of war, the Meteorological Bureau would be responsible for monitoring the entire sea to pierce the great fog of the battlefield.

Only by understanding the enemy's force distribution could they take specific actions.

Pelu scratched her head and said:

"Recently, too many strange noises and illusions have shrouded the sea, making long-distance observation impossible.

Rose, the leader of the Beiguo Meteorological Bureau, has already withdrawn to the Moonstone City observatory.

They need to concentrate all their eyes on Moonstone City's defense."

The Ice Witch fell into hesitation.

Rationally speaking, the enemy's target was undoubtedly Moonstone City.

But if she went to Moonstone City, and the enemy sent two Saints to attack them first...

In this kind of war, the distribution of combat power among fifth-tier Saints was crucial.

Soon, Chen Qi's voice dispelled her worries:

"Big White Hair, you go to Moonstone City first. I can handle the fleet attacking our island."

Chen Qi, having upgraded to Sea Shepherd, naturally had an extremely large spiritual vision range.

Combined with the deep-sea perception from his Deep Sea Affinity and the shared perception between him and his pets, his spiritual vision surpassed that of the Ice Witch.

Five hundred warships, plus a Saint-level Goblet affinity powerhouse.

The Ice Witch nodded.

Time was of the essence; Hayer and Madame Oli alone could not withstand the combined forces of the Black Blood Empire and the Blackfin Crew.

Soon, the Ice Witch arranged the fleet to head for Moonstone City.

Among them, Palu's fleet, the new fleet formed by the Sea God Pirates and the Blood Blade Pirates, as well as Little Crow and others, all followed the Ice Witch to Moonstone City.

Considering the compatibility between Chen Qi and Fen, their coordination, and possible special circumstances.

The Ice Witch did not take Fen and the Book Saint.

Currently, their Saints were already scarce; if they lost Chen Qi, the consequences would be unthinkable.

It's finally beginning... the Ice Witch said coldly.

Her intuition told her this wasn't a fight of the past; this was a war between two nations, a life-and-death battle between Saints.

Eventually, someone would step over the corpses of other Saints to tread a higher path!

And undoubtedly, Chen Qi, who had recently ascended, was the most likely target... A rare, almost motherly tenderness appeared on the Ice Witch's cold expression:

"Be careful, Little Black Hair, Fen."

Now, Fen can only be left to Little Black Hair... the Ice Witch thought secretly.

Don't jinx it, Big White Hair! Chen Qi said with a smile:

"Don't worry, that Saint is no match for us."

"Teacher, take care! We'll come to support as soon as possible!"

Fen also said.

"Be careful..."

Little Crow chimed in as well. During these days, Chen Qi and Fen had taken care of her so, so much.

One could even say they treated her better than her deceased parents.

Little Crow followed the Ice Witch onto the ship.

Set sail!

The fleet raised its sails and set off towards Moonstone City.

As a large number of ships headed for Moonstone City, the shelter island quickly became much quieter.

And the strong individuals left on the city wall were only the Book Saint and Fen.

"Finally finished talking, Black Hunter, good luck. This Saint will sleep for a while, just a little while~"

The Book Saint plugged in earplugs that could block all sound.

She hadn't slept more than four hours in a row for seven whole days.

You have to understand, she was a patient suffering from Knowledge Worms disease.

She was sick!

Only sleep could bring comfort to her brain.

Never mind, sleep first!

The Book Saint silently lay down on the city wall and closed her eyes.

"Hmm..."

Chen Qi glanced at the Book Saint.

At her age of several hundred years, this was the time for striving, how could she sleep?

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a massive black blood fireball shot across the sea, attacking from the edge of their vision.

Boom!

This cannonball directly struck the Book Saint's little head.

"I—"

The Book Saint raised her middle finger.

"Activate the protective shield."

Chen Qi commanded.

Soon, the guardians on the city wall deployed a thick protective shield.

This was a protective shield guided by the Book Saint and jointly built by many Transcendents.

Although it couldn't compare to the Noah's Wall built by the Steam Hand Workshop, it could withstand attacks from fifth-tier Transcendents as long as they weren't fourth-tier Releases.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thousands of cannonballs poured down like a torrential rain, turning the entire protective shield into a giant, ignited firework.

Without any hesitation, the Black Blood Empire's ships immediately used their maximum firepower.

Unprecedented cracks appeared on the huge protective shield.

"Pity, the War Ship isn't here. If it were the War Ship, a protective shield of this level would shatter at a touch."

Red Dragon looked at the battlefield scene and drank a glass of red wine.

"Is that all the people on the city wall?"

Red Dragon pointed again:

"For me, level this island to the ground!!"

With his command, the five fourth-tier powerers under Red Dragon's command swarmed out, each using their own skills to bombard the protective shield.

Boom! Boom!

The protective shield shattered instantly.

Red Dragon smiled slightly, preparing to command the fleet to attack the island from five directions.

"Charge!"

However, the next moment, fifty massive shadows rose from the sea.

Roar—

The heavy trumpet of elephants resounded across the sky.

"Admiral Red Dragon! There's movement under the ships!"

"Admiral Red Dragon! The Black Hunter's sea beast army has made its move!"

Facing five hundred ships in formation, fifty Black Sea Mammoths, plus the Deep-Sea Titan Twelve-Tentacles, were enough to block them all!

Numerous ship cannons struck the bodies of the Deep-Sea Twelve-Tentacles and the Black Sea Mammoths.

However, for the thick-skinned mammoths and titans, these attacks were far from enough.

The Twelve-Tentacles' tentacles and the giant elephant trunks wantonly destroyed everything in the sea.

Almost instantly, the fleet erupted with huge cries of agony.

Amidst these agonized cries, Red Dragon couldn't help but grin.

The strength of a Beast Tamer lay in their ability to handle groups.

But the weakness of all Beast Tamers was their fragile true bodies!

And now, the Black Hunter before him had actually deployed such powerful pets as the Deep-Sea Titan to attack his fleet!

This meant the Black Hunter himself was currently lacking in defense!

And this was undoubtedly an opportunity for him, with his powerful individual combat strength, to kill Chen Qi!

No, that thought is too arrogant, just cripple him... Red Dragon spread his dragon wings behind him, his scales burning, as he charged towards Chen Qi like a burning giant meteor!

"First time meeting, Black Hunter. My name is Kiel, also known as General Red Dragon!"

"On this sea, let's have a good, proper fight!!!"

Red Dragon's muscles tensed, battle lust burning in his eyes!

Every powerful combatant of the Black Blood Empire was a bloodthirsty maniac!

Only battle could excite them, only battle could bring them joy!

"Come! A fight between real men!"

Red Dragon flexed his thousand-times-tempered muscles!

It had been a long time since he wrestled with a fifth-tier Transcendent!

"Hmm?"

Chen Qi glanced over.

He hadn't expected that, after the Book Tower incident, there would still be a fifth-tier Transcendent daring to directly charge into his attack range.

Chen Qi's spiritual energy perception swept across the entire sea area.

Unlike the situation at the Book Tower before.

There were no other reinforcements, nor any signs of a Rift Gate being opened.

The Red Dragon before him was isolated and without aid!

This guy is just a piece of free experience delivered to my doorstep... Chen Qi casually raised his hand.

Over the sea, the Coastal Apex Predator raised its boiling head, opening its mouth, preparing to fire the Dragon Furnace Cannon.

Boom!

Deafening!

"Hah! Not enough!!"

Red Dragon swung his hand sideways, catching the scorching Dragon Furnace Cannon blast with one hand.

At that moment, Chen Qi looked up and said:

"Book Saint, stop slacking off. Kill this fiery lizard before us, and I'll reward you with twelve hours of sleep time."

Book Saint? Red Dragon was stunned, pondering this name.

Fen, meanwhile, gaped.

Chen Qi was actually commanding the Book Saint!

You have to understand, although the Book Saint had been following their commands for a long time, all of that was the result of Chen Qi and the Ice Witch working together.

Now, with only the Black Hunter present, the Book Saint had no reason to obey Chen Qi's commands.

Sure enough, amidst the smoke of the cannon fire, a petite female figure walked out, looking angrily at Chen Qi.

Now, she had no need to obey Chen Qi's commands!

The Book Saint's feet slowly stepped over the rubble as she glared fiercely at Chen Qi:

"What joke is this? Black Hunter, do you think this Saint would simply obey your demands!"

Chen Qi looked at the Book Saint, snapped his fingers, and called for Water Spirit Number Seven.

Suddenly, the Book Saint sharply raised her head, changing her tune:

"Fifteen hours, is that okay? Also, that damn Big White Hair, does she agree?!"

"???"

Fen glanced at the Book Saint.

In this situation, the Book Saint actually didn't resist.

Could it be that the Book Saint had already been fully trained by Water Spirit Number Seven and the teacher?

But the Book Saint was the pride of the Book Tower!

"Fourteen hours."

Chen Qi said coldly.

The Book Saint continued:

"Fifteen hours."

"One hour."

"Fine, fourteen hours!"

The Book Saint's gaze turned cold as she threatened Chen Qi:

"Don't get too cocky! If you don't keep your promise, don't blame me for working one hour and slacking off half an hour during work!"

This threat... A little blue flower of speechlessness bloomed above Fen's head.

"Deal..."

After Chen Qi and the Book Saint reached an agreement, he looked at Red Dragon in the air.

Although the Book Saint had lost most of her spiritual energy due to forging rift weapons and couldn't serve as the main force, she could help Chen Qi control the enemy.

With the Book Saint's help, capturing Red Dragon would take at most thirty minutes.

"Book Saint..."

Red Dragon looked down, incredulously, at the petite, arrogant-looking white-haired girl with a resentful expression beside Chen Qi.

This spiritual energy, though it felt somewhat drained, was undoubtedly that of a fifth-tier Transcendent!

The Book Saint was the leader of the Book Tower, wasn't she!

Aren't you supposed to be guarding the Book Tower? What are you doing on this island?

Abandoning your home?

Wait! Red Dragon's gaze turned cold, his robust body involuntarily trembling.

Legend said that Book affinity Transcendents were meticulous and strategic, planning every step!

Could it be that this was also part of your plan!

And as his body trembled, Red Dragon seemed to realize a crucial issue:

He seemed to be delivering himself to his doom.
