Monica was not surprised at all; she had known for a long time that the Lord of Glory had two names. One was like an alias, and the other was his real name. But why did they both have such strange expressions on their faces? Was there something inappropriate about this name?
Although she had doubts in her mind, the tactful Monica didn’t inquire further.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ji Chen stepped in and said, “President Jiang is here to assist the Lienhardt Grand Duchy. Monica, I hope you can include them in our counteroffensive force.”
“We welcome any force that opposes the tyranny and ambitions of the Kingdom of Bass.”
Monica blinked and smiled, saying, “Just as Lord Ji Chen said back when we were walking in the woods of the New Moon Islands, you told me that we should unite all the forces we can.”
With these words, I_Love_Black_Stockings and Wang Shanyue both looked at Ji Chen, their eyes filled with shock and admiration.
Did you really manage to bring the daughter of a Grand Duke to your territory?
Clearly, the relationship between Monica and Ji Chen exceeded their imagination.
Ji Chen thought for a moment, realizing that he had indeed said that casually at the time. He was surprised that Monica remembered it.
“Yes, we must unite all the forces we can, as a great figure from our land once said.”
Monica nodded, “Now we have joined forces with the Thorey Kingdom, the Pelan Kingdom, and many other Lords of Glory. It is based on this principle that we are proceeding.
Over in Tressburg, the decision has already been made. We will march out the day after tomorrow, launching an attack from the eastern border of the Kingdom of Bass, directly towards Ilkand City. We will occupy it with the help of the naval fleet, use their resources for supplies, and then proceed to attack the capital of the Kingdom of Bass, Victory City.
Although the Eighth Fleet of the Kingdom of Bass was captured by you, and the Ninth Fleet was defeated by us, the enemy still has seven fleets roaming the seas. Once we launch a direct attack on Ilkand City, they are bound to attack like a pack of wolves…
Lord Ji Chen, we need your help.”
Looking at the hopeful expression in front of him, Ji Chen showed a gentle smile and reached out to touch her hair. “Of course, I will help you.”
Monica smiled in response, her beautiful smile instantly brightening the surroundings. I_Love_ Black_Stockings looked at her in a daze, while Wang Shanyue had a bitter expression on his face, muttering something like, “You really are something, making me feel worse than if you had killed me.”
The day of departure came quickly.
On the previous day, a total of two hundred thousand troops from the Lienhardt Grand Duchy had also arrived at Feiguang City from the rear.
While this army was far smaller in number compared to the player’s army, their quality was on a completely different level.
The lowest-ranked soldiers in this two hundred thousand-strong army were Tier 5,1-star units, well-equipped and well-trained, looking much more formidable than the player’s haphazardly assembled troops.
On the right flank of this indigenous army were the players, including the Shanyue Guild, King Kong Island Guild, and some smaller guilds. Their numbers were much larger, nearly reaching tens of millions, extending from the city walls to the distant forests, appearing endless and magnificent.
However, the armies of the solo players were not included in this count. Most of them had small forces, so they were tasked with smaller missions like infiltration, assassination, sabotage, and other small-scale operations within the Kingdom of Bass.
Monica began with an inspiring pre-battle speech as the daughter of the Lienhardt Grand Duke. Afterward, the massive army set off.
Ji Chen did not mix with them but instead led the Ocean Crown’s forces into the sea.
According to intelligence from the Lienhardt Grand Duchy, aside from the Eighth Fleet that had already been captured and the Ninth Fleet that had been defeated, the Kingdom of Bass had ordered the return of the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Fleets to defend their waters due to increased pressure. The First and Second Fleets had also been dispatched to reinforce Ilkand City several days ago.
The remaining Third and Fourth Fleets disappeared in the open sea two days ago, seemingly to lurk just beyond sight, exerting invisible pressure on the Lienhardt’s fleet. But Ji Chen always felt there was something fishy about it.
Therefore, the first thing he did when he set out was to search for the traces of these two fleets.
The Ocean Crown’s forces raced across the sea, entering the area where they were last reported in the intelligence.
For an ordinary person, trying to locate two fleets on the vast ocean would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
But for Ji Chen, who possessed the Tidal Dominator profession and commanded a powerful marine army, it wasn’t an impossible task. He had insider information from a certain source.
On the night before departure, Revered Envoy Katie finally revealed a clue. Several months ago, it seemed that the Kingdom of Bass had found a divine relic in a certain sea area. That relic appeared to contain something capable of bringing about the destruction of a nation.
In this moment when the Kingdom of Bass was facing a siege from three nations and was on the brink of destruction, they might be pinning their hopes of a comeback on this relic.
However, Ji Chen also noticed something peculiar. The location of the relic seemed to coincidentally overlap with the direction and gathering point of the sea beast tide that had plagued the entire Western-Mid Ocean in the past..
