Chapter 97: Chaos
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As the fleeing players rushed towards the mystic realm gate in a panic, without even explaining the situation outside to them, Ji Chen and Alice exchanged a glance and made an immediate decision.
“Raise the sails urgently and evacuate at full speed behind them!”
“Leave the two-masted sailboat behind, let the pirates return immediately!”
“Yes!” Sparrow shouted loudly.
Ji Chen manipulated the water currents, creating a waterway between the two ships, allowing the pirates on board to quickly return.
Soon, the large sails were hoisted, and the fierce wind of the Blood Sea blew, inflating the sails.
The New Moon, as if pushed by the hands of a wind giant, swiftly merged into the fleet.
On the distant surface of the sea, the Crimson Warships were manned by Blood Spirit warriors with murderous intent, relentlessly pursuing at full speed.
Although they had died in the flesh, the Blood Spirits, who had transformed after death, still retained their consciousness and will from their previous lives.
Before their deaths, they had met various fates.
Some were killed by players with a single slash, some drowned in the previous naval battles, and some were shot to death by crossbow arrows.
Of course, there were also those who were controlled by Alice and killed by their own kind.
Regardless of how they died, they all had some connection to the players and Ji Chen, so their hatred was beyond words. Resentment surged from their foreheads, almost reaching the sky.
Each of them wished to dismember the players and Ji Chen in a brutal manner.
“Fire!”
The Blood Spirit sergeant on the warship brandished his sword and commanded the Blood Spirit Warriors to fire the cannons.
The cannonballs continued to land on the nearby sea, splashing water into the sky. Ji Chen was terrified when he saw this.
Fortunately, his luck was not bad. The shells either hit the other players’ ships or landed on both sides of his ship. The New Moon was intact.
He turned around.
Dozens of Krieg battleships were chasing from all directions like a pack of wolves, pouring fire on them.
Among them was an especially huge warship.
It was over a hundred meters long, with five towering masts and extremely gorgeous decorations.
At the bow of the ship, Krieg’s expression was cold as she watched the players fleeing like rats in the distance. She could not help but smile.
What goes around, comes around.
Now is the time!
“My Lady, they are about to leave. Should we continue pursuing them?”
The officer beside her asked with a lowered head.
“Of course! We must slaughter these invaders completely!”
“But once the Blood Spirit Warriors leave the Blood Sea, their power will gradually diminish, and by then…”
Kreig furrowed her brow and said sharply, “Death is their honor. Only by killing the invaders quickly can they wash away their previous shame.”
“Yes.” The officer fell silent and dared not say anything more.
Thus, the Crimson Warships advanced at full speed, relentlessly pursuing their prey.
Ji Chen followed the player ships and entered the mystic realm gate. In an instant, the bloody sky transformed into a blue sky with white clouds, and the crimson sea turned into a deep blue ocean.
In the distance, there were over forty warships of the Bauhinia Alliance surrounding the mystic realm gate.
“All Glory Lords who have emerged, listen up! Stop your ships!”
“You must surrender half of your loot from within the mystic realm before you can leave. Otherwise, we will sink you here!”
Upon seeing so many ships emerging, the officer of the Bauhinia Alliance flagship quickly spoke loudly using a specially designed amplifier.
However, to his astonishment, these Glory Lords seemed to ignore his words completely and showed no intention of stopping. They continued full speed ahead without the slightest hesitation.
His anger surged instantly.
How dare they ignore his words!?
He would give these ungrateful Glory Lords a severe lesson and make them realize that the Bauhinia Alliance was the true ruler of these seas!
So, he immediately ordered the bombardment of the place.
But soon, he realized that something was wrong.
Why did these Glory Lords appear to be in such a panic?
It was as if something was chasing after them.
This thought had yet to fade away.
The door to the mystic realm suddenly shook violently.
Warships sailed out one after another, and the sails were engraved with a golden tree.
Was it Krieg’s warship?
The Bauhinia Alliance soldiers were stunned.
Hadn’t Krieg’s Holy City already been captured? And the majority of the soldiers should have been killed or injured. Where did these many soldiers come from on the ships?
In their extreme shock, they even forgot to fire their cannons.
During this lapse of time, the players’ ships swiftly moved away from both sides.
Only the ships of the Bauhinia Alliance and Krieg’s forces remained facing each other.
The Blood Spirit soldiers piloted their ships through the Mystic Realm’s gate and, upon seeing the surrounding environment, involuntarily opened their mouths wide.
The sky was a deep blue, adorned with white clouds. The sea was a vibrant azure, filled with flying birds and leaping fish—a scene brimming with vitality.
Compared to that, the Blood Sea seemed like a lifeless wasteland, inhabited only by ferocious blood beasts and desolate land.
They were captivated by this beautiful sight, but then they noticed the fleet in the distance, with a violet flower adorning the ship’s sails.
They quickly realized that it was another group of invaders!
The Bauhinia Alliance had clashed with Krieg and his forces several times before the players entered the Mystic Realm, leaving a deep impression on them.
In terms of hatred, they held no less animosity towards Krieg’s forces than they did towards the players.
As they say, when enemies meet, their envy becomes even stronger..
