The lizardmen in the city witnessed this scene, and they were all dumbfounded.

Their shock was beyond words.

My goodness, what did they just witness?

The water actually floated and gathered together?

Were they dreaming?

Several minutes later, Ji Chen looked at the small lake formed under his feet and nodded in satisfaction.

Though not abundant, the water was enough.

He raised his palm, and more mana surged out.

The water rose again, condensing into thousands of water blades in the air, covering half of the sky in an instant.

Amid the lizardmen’s terrified expressions, Ji Chen waved his hand, and the water blades rained down like a storm.

While slicing through the lizardmen’s bodies, they also destroyed the defensive mechanisms on the city walls.

The water blades kept pouring down until the small lake had shrunk rapidly, and the attacks ceased when the last drop of water was used up.

At this point, the city walls were in disarray.

Most of the lizardmen defenders on the walls had vanished, leaving behind a layer of scattered remains without any signs of resistance.

Their bodies and limbs littered the ground, and blood flowed down the walls, leaving deep scars on the stone fortifications.

The surviving lizardmen stared blankly at the scene, their gazes fixed on Ji Chen as if he were some kind of monstrous being.

Fear, genuine and profound fear, filled their hearts.

Boom!

The Ruins Guardians, already arranged in rows, marched towards the city gate with heavy steps, steadily and resolutely.

Their enormous hands slammed against the iron gates, causing them to resonate with a dull thud, leaving depressions on the surface.

Hearing this thunderous sound, the lizardmen soldiers didn’t come up to attack; they just watched as the city gates were smashed open, falling to the ground with a resounding crash.

Faced with an enemy they couldn’t defeat, there was no point in fighting.

They had lost all will to fight, and one by one, they kneeled on the ground, begging for mercy.

The army entered the city without any resistance, slowly advancing inside.

Standing on the shoulder of a Ruins Guardian, Ji Chen looked at the kneeling lizardmen on both sides of the street with a disdainful expression.

Even when he approached, the lizardmen still dared not raise their heads.

After entering the city, hundreds of Ruins Guardians scattered and took control of key points throughout the city, dealing with any remaining resistance.

As for Ji Chen, he led several squads to the center of the city, in front of a church-style stone building.

The stone doors of the building were tightly closed, and there were no soldiers guarding it.

Seeing this, he gestured, and a Ruins Guardian stepped forward and punched the stone door several times, causing it to collapse with a loud crash, raising a cloud of dust.

As the dust settled, Ji Chen walked in and was slightly surprised by what he saw.

In the center of the building, beside a finely crafted stone table, lay the bodies of more than a dozen lizardmen who had committed suicide.

Blood was still oozing out from them, gathering on the ground, painting it a bloody red and filling the air with a pungent smell of blood.

Among these high-ranking officials of the Bano Kingdom, there were generals and elders. However, faced with the fall of the city and the inevitability of defeat, they had chosen to end their lives resolutely.

Ji Chen glanced deeply at the scene, feeling a slight tremor in his heart. He muttered, “They still have some backbone.”

“Well, since that’s the case, let’s find a place to bury them.”

Without any unexpected incidents or obstacles, the entire city was successfully captured and taken over.

Under the suppression of the Ruins Guardians, no reckless lizardmen dared to resist.

Next, Ji Chen went to the treasury of the Bano Kingdom to receive the wealth stored there.

Being an underground lizardmen kingdom, their storage differed significantly from the surface-dwelling races.

What first caught Ji Chen’s eye were the piles of ore used for forging weapons and equipment, which accumulated into a mountainous heap.

Besides the storage in this warehouse, the Bano Kingdom had even larger quantities of ore stashed away in several secret caves.

Roughly estimating the current consumption rate of the Crown of the Ocean, these ores would be enough for hundreds of years.

Not only that, but the other three kingdoms also stored some ore, although not as much as the Bano Kingdom.

In the depths below, there was no shortage of ore!

Apart from the ores, the Bano Kingdom’s warehouse contained an enormous amount of fluorescent mushrooms, so much so that Ji Chen couldn’t even estimate their quantity.

These mushrooms were stored as a precaution in case the city got surrounded by enemies.

But little did they know that before they could even take a bite, the city would fall.

With these fluorescent mushrooms, the food problem for the Crown of the Ocean was easily solved. They could endure not only three months but even three years!

In addition to the ores and fluorescent mushrooms, the warehouse also held a considerable amount of advanced resources like mithril, crystals, and fine gold.

Being situated underground beneath a volcano with intense geological activity, even these rare resources could be produced in abundance.

This wave of plunder was like hitting the jackpot!

Feeling delighted, Ji Chen walked out of the warehouse. These items would later be transported to the surface by the lizardmen and transferred to the Crown of the Ocean’s warehouse.

Half a day passed, and finally, news arrived from the other two armies.

Undoubtedly, both armies had achieved victory and successfully captured the enemy’s capitals, but their methods of conquest were entirely different.

First was Daro’s army, which won through pure violence and bloodshed.

Daro led the half-orcs and charged straight through the Panda Kingdom’s capital, breaking through the city’s defenses under heavy fire.

They killed a large number of soldiers and even slaughtered the Panda Kingdom’s high-ranking officials who attempted to resist.

However, there was another version of the story claiming that after witnessing the city gate being breached, the high-ranking officials of the Panda Kingdom chose to surrender, but Daro, blinded by rage, killed them all with a few axe strikes.

However, Ji Chen didn’t particularly care about which version was true and which was false.

After all, he hadn’t intended to let these lizardmen kingdom’s high-ranking officials survive in the first place.

Would he have kept them around to cause trouble?

Next was Alice and Benbo’s expedition.

Alice and Benbo, along with their recruited troops, also swiftly captured the capital of the Lando Kingdom, but their methods were more elegant.

They didn’t choose to launch a direct assault; instead, Alice used her singing to control a portion of the enemy lizardmen soldiers from behind the city walls.

She manipulated them to open the city gate from the inside. Then, she controlled them to attack the other lizardmen soldiers.

Seeing their comrades attacking them, the soldiers of the Lando Kingdom’s lizardmen panicked and had no time to deal with Alice and Benbo’s forces. This made it easy for Benbo to take control of the city gate effortlessly.

Following this, Alice continued to control a large group of enemy soldiers in a snowballing manner, making them fight for her.

Facing Alice’s singing, the enemy had no idea how to respond and could only watch helplessly as Alice and her troops pushed forward with high spirits.

In the end, the city’s defenses were effortlessly dismantled.

Throughout the battle, their recruited troops didn’t have to lift a finger and simply watched the spectacle unfold, making them the most relaxed force in this campaign.

With the fall of the three capitals, it meant that the three lizardmen kingdoms had been annihilated.

Besides the capitals, there were still some caves of varying sizes in the three kingdoms that held a small number of resistance forces.

Ji Chen also had no intention of spending too much effort personally subduing each and every one.

He directly allowed the leaders and generals of the Dork Kingdom, along with their lizardman army, to go and eliminate them one by one, bringing them under his rule.

On a bright and sunny morning, Ji Chen finally finished dealing with the underground affairs and returned to the surface.

Looking at the azure sky, the lush forests, and hearing the chirping of birds and insects, his mood instantly improved.

In the underground lizardmen kingdoms, everything he saw was either rocks or magma, and the scenery was monotonous and dull, devoid of anything that could relax a person.

After spending so many days there, he longed for everything on the surface.

However, after a short moment of rest, Ji Chen once again immersed himself in his work.

Little did he know that a new crisis was slowly approaching the Crown of the Ocean..
