nChapter 20

nIt felt like being cradled in a mother’s embrace, enveloped in a sense of security.

nIt was akin to a long-awaited reunion with loved ones, filling him with joy and warmth.

nIt was like the soothing comfort and warmth of lying on a vast field basking under the gentle spring sun.

nSong of Temptation (Blue skill, can use beautiful and seductive singing to confuse the enemy, causing them to fall into a state of absent-mindedness)

nIn a mere moment, the Shallow Water Trolls went from fierce and menacing to completely stunned.

nTheir eyes lost all their life as their attacking movements slowed to a crawl, their faces taking on a look of obsession and happiness as if they were witnessing something truly beautiful.

nThey ignored the Murlocs that had already rushed in front of them.

nThe Murlocs were not affected at all, and they stabbed the pitchforks into the trolls’ bodies without any hindrance.

nStab~

nThe piercing sound of weapons entering flesh echoed continuously, accompanying the clean and sharp song that carried a murderous aura.

nDespite the numerous wounds on their bodies, the Shallow Water Trolls remained entranced and unable to free themselves.

nEven in death, their eyes were filled with bliss. As the gentle singing ceased, the ground was already littered with the corpses of Trolls.

nThe green shallow water was dyed red, and a thick smell of blood filled the air, rushing straight to his nose.

nAfter a long time, Ji Chen finally came back to his senses. His eyes were filled with shock.

nThe scene was shocking, too terrifying to comprehend. To watch the enemy die in such a beautiful and warm manner seemed almost romantic, but seeing it first-hand sent shivers down their spines.

nThe Siren was truly a noble of the sea. With this ability alone, she could easily be considered a hero. Ji Chen’s admiration for Alice grew stronger.

nWith Alice by his side, he had no worries about not being able to conquer and rule the entire island.

n“Ding ~ The battle has ended. You have won a glorious victory.”

n“None injured 40% extra experience. Defeating a large number of opponents with fewer opponents 20% extra experience. Overwhelming victory 40% extra experience.”

nYou have received 600 experience points. Current experience is 80%

/100%.

nThe intensity of this battle had filled up 60% of his experience bar, nearly reaching the maximum experience for this level.

nIt was truly overwhelming.

nOnce the battle was over, the coldness in Alice’s eyes dissipated and she began to proudly take credit like a child.

n“My Lord, I did well, right?”

nJi Chen smiled and gently stroked her hair. “You did well. You’re amazing.”

nAlice’s eyes formed a crescent shape, like the moon.

nNext, it was time to collect the spoils of war.

nHe waded through the shallow water and came to the beach in the middle of the lake.

nHe first walked to the treasure chest.

nThe chest was glowing with stars, and it looked even more beautiful than the treasure chest he had seen on the stranded ship.

nUnlock Treasure Chest

nLevel: 3 stars

nThere seems to be something good inside.

nWill the Goddess of Luck notice you?

n3 stars!

nIt was definitely better than the last treasure chest!

nLast time, he had only gotten a resource collection tool. What would he get this time?

nJi Chen opened it with a hint of anticipation.

n“Goddess of Luck! If you don’t give me something good, I’ll believe in other goddesses!”

n“You have opened a 3-star treasure chest. Obtained The Crown of Omniscience (3-star treasure).”

nThe Crown of Omniscience

nLevel: 3-star treasure (single)

nEffect: Activate the full-view map. Greatly increases the user’s field of vision in the wild

nYou need a map that can cheat.

nA 3-star treasure!

nThe effect was simply awesome!

nCurrently, he planned to use not only the hack for upgrading troops, but also the hack for X-ray vision!

nJi Chen placed the Crown of Omniscience under the head equipment slot.

nIn the next second, a circular light screen map appeared in front of him, showing the surrounding terrain from a bird’s eye view.

nAt the center of the map was a green dot in the shape of a water droplet, representing himself.

nThere were some circular green dots surrounding it, representing the Murlocs.

nThe green triangle that represented Alice was right next to him.

nSome of the beasts and monsters in the nearby forest appeared as red dots on his map. Some remained stationary, while others were moving slowly.

nJi Chen smacked his lips in surprise.

nWasn’t this a radar made for human?

nHe calculated that the Omniscience Map covered an area of about one kilometer around him, displaying a circular field of view with a diameter of two kilometers.

nIt could track allies and even hostile targets such as monsters and wild beasts within this range.

nAdditionally, it could provide information on the terrain and buildings within a certain distance, as if they were playing an action-adventure game.

nThe Goddess of Luck had truly favored him this time, gifting him with an item that could be considered a divine artifact in the dense forest.

nWith it, he no longer had to worry about sudden attacks from wild beasts and monsters. The actual effect of using it could even surpass that of a 4-star or 5-star treasure.

nObtaining this item alone was worth the entire trip.

nIt was a bloody profit!

nHe shifted his focus to the neutral recruitment camp situated at the center of the beach.

nWith the massive number of trolls guarding it, it couldn’t be just any ordinary army recruitment camp, could it?

nHe took a closer look.

nNaga Warrior Altar

nTier: 2, 5 stars

nType of soldier recruited: Naga Warrior (Tier 2, 5-star)

nNumber of recruits per week: 14

nCurrent Recruited: 14

nRecruitment cost: 30 units of wood, 30 units of fiber, 30 units of clay.

nClick to recruit

nJi Chen felt extremely happy to see that he had recruited a Tier 2 5-star Naga Warrior.

nSince Nagas and Murlocs were both aquatic creatures, they were very suitable for the island’s terrain.

nHe was worried that the neutral recruitment camp might only offer land or sea units, which would not be as valuable to him.

nHe immediately claimed it and clicked on recruit.

nWith a soft sound.

nThe altar-shaped Naga Warrior recruitment camp in front of him trembled slightly, and the patterns in the center of the altar emitted a green light.

nThe green light wiggled and gradually formed into tall and sturdy figures.

nHis face and body slowly became clearer.

nIts head was a combination of human and dragon features, with fins protruding on either side. Its body had two powerful scaly arms with sharp, half-meter long bone blades on the back of each hand.

nThe upper half of its body resembled that of a human and extended down to its waist, where it transformed into a snake-like body.

nUnlike Alice’s delicate and beautiful scales, the scales of these creatures were thick and wide like those of a general’s armor, indicating strong defensive capabilities.

nHis gaze was cold and cruel, and he stood there like a ruthless executioner.

nNaga Warrior

nLevel: 1

nTier: 2, 5 stars

nSkill: Bloodthirsty frenzy (green skill, once it smells blood it will become frenzied and attack wildly).

nNaga’s Body (Green characteristic. Large and thick scales provide considerable defense, ignoring some damage)

nBloodline Regeneration (Green characteristic. The meagre bloodline of the Great Flood Dragon gives it a certain regeneration ability. Other than the head, heart, and other core parts, all parts can be regenerated)

nMilitary characteristic: Out of control (once a Naga smells blood, it will lose control to a certain extent and even ignore orders to attack the enemy crazily)

nI’m the Northwest King of Assassins!

nHis eyes lit up.
