Duoru’s face changed as he snatched the binoculars and looked to the north. A large group of black creatures were swiftly running across the snowy ice field, heading straight for the fleet.
These creatures had limbs as well as tough skin covering their bones. They had sharp teeth in their mouths, three rows of menacing bone spikes on their backs, and metallic-like hooks growing at their joints.
Their humanoid body structure made them chilling to behold.
“Those are deviant ghosts, likely survivors from the war who failed to leave in time and evolved into these grotesque beings
It’s probably your previous bombardment that woke them up from their nests.
You’d better deal with them from a safe distance, or your soldiers won’t be enough for them.”
Duoru gave the Deceiver a deep and penetrating look, then issued his order without the slightest hesitation.
Without hesitation, Duoru issued the order, “All cannons, shift your aim to the enemy deviant ghosts, unleash saturated firepower.”
“Don’t hold back the firepower; eliminate these damned creatures from a safe distance.”
Listening to the commotion outside once again, Ji Chen crawled out of the hole and observed the situation outside. He saw thousands of black creatures aggressively attacking the Bass Kingdom fleet, and he couldn’t help but smile.
Well, it seemed like there were treasure chest-like creatures here, after all?
Watching the Bass Kingdom fleet trying hard to stop the monsters from getting closer with their cannons, Ji Chen felt that if he didn’t take advantage of this opportunity now, it would be unfair to them for all their hard work and intensity in battle.
“Herald, take a hundred Naga Guardians with you, and follow me to explore that grassy area. The rest of you stay here and provide support at any time.”
The heroes nodded in agreement, and Ji Chen wasted no time.
With a wave of his hand, he led the Naga Guardians and Herald to land once again, relying on the cover of the towering icebergs as they headed towards the grassy area. The Bass Kingdom fleet was completely absorbed in dealing with the incoming monsters, oblivious to anyone passing right under their noses.
One kilometer was not far, and over a dozen minutes later, they arrived at the edge of the grassy area. Following his signal, several Naga Guardians advanced first and did not encounter any attacks. Even when they reached the tree canopy, they remained unharmed.
Seeing this, Ji Chen walked in with confidence, treading on the soft grass until he reached the shade of a large tree. He then looked at the faint golden liquid.
Under the sunlight penetrating the branches and leaves, this liquid displayed a remarkable brilliance, reflecting a color more dazzling than gold itself, resembling liquid amber.
A sweet fragrance wafted around, making one feel that even a sip could prolong one’s life.
As Ji Chen looked at the liquid that could fill only a wine jug, his throat gulped, and he had a faint feeling.
If he were to drink this liquid, perhaps his strength would experience a growth that rivaled the blessings from the gods.
As the sounds of artillery from the other side gradually subsided, Ji Chen no longer hesitated. He took out a crystal bottle with the intention of collecting the liquid.
“Little one, if you use a regular bottle, the Water of Life will lose its effectiveness quickly.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ears, causing Ji Chen, who was caught off guard, to take a few steps back and instinctively place his hand on the Void Ring, ready to teleport at any moment.
However, when he saw the familiar figure in front of him, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
“Lady Elin!?”
