Chapter 3660: ExcitementEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Fang Heng had once again focused his attention on the three Lyman Empire battleships he had seen during the day.

The ships had been damaged from earlier and had not yet been repaired.

Many Oz Empire soldiers were still stationed on the ships, keeping night watch.

Fang Heng rubbed his chin.

If he directly acted, it might trigger a mission and cause a drop in friendship with Sea God Island.

He had to think of another way.

Fang Heng slowly levitated upward and looked toward the distant sea.

Now that he thought about it, how had Sea God Island been controlling the sea monsters?

Fang Heng released his perception.

Only then did he realize that the sea monsters seemed to have been summoned by some kind of power, and a large number of them had gathered beneath the seabed around Sea God Island’s perimeter.

In fact, only a very small number of low-level sea monsters had been actively attacking Sea God Island.

"They had restricted the intensity of the sea monster attacks..."

As for the source of the summoning power...

It came from there!

Fang Heng suddenly raised his head and looked back toward a tall tower in the center of the island.

He recalled hearing Raygynold mention it when he first arrived on the island.

The High Priest Sawyer lived in that tower.

"Faith power... divine statues..."

It was roughly being used to control the movements of sea monsters through the power of faith in the god.

"Heh, interesting. Since I’m already here, I might as well play along."

A cold smile appeared on Fang Heng’s lips. He turned and quickly flew toward the distant sea. He hovered above the area where large numbers of sea monsters had gathered and once again released his perception.

"Come."

Whoosh!

Fang Heng opened his eyes.

Psychic power.

Mental shock.

A large-scale mental shock instantly covered the massive group of sea monsters on the seabed.

In an instant, the sea monsters that had been lying dormant were violently stimulated, and their eyes were instantly covered in crimson.

Under the psychic piercing effect, the sea monsters immediately lost their sanity and frantically rushed toward the western coast of Sea God Island.

"It worked, and it was easier than expected."

Fang Heng opened his eyes again.

It was simple.

The opponent’s method of controlling the sea monsters relied on summoning and guidance, which was slow and easily disrupted.

He now understood why they had only lured low-tier sea monsters to attack Sea God Island.

On the one hand, it reduced risk. On the other hand, the summoning method was unstable, and the sea monsters could easily break free.

His method was much simpler.

Pure stimulation.

He directly stimulated the ferocity of the sea monsters through psychic power and guided them into a frenzy.

The control effect might have been slightly weaker, but it was far simpler.

In an instant, large numbers of sea monsters surged from the seabed toward the shore of Sea God Island.

At the same time, on the tower.

Priest Darcy’s expression changed drastically.

What had happened?!

The sea monsters he had summoned had suddenly gone out of control.

He quickly tried to regain control.

But the next moment, a terrifying backlash struck.

Not good!

Darcy immediately cut off his connection with the god.

"Puff, puff!!!"

More than thirty priests involved in the ritual all spat out blood and fell backward.

The ritual instantly failed.

At the center of the ritual, the Sea God statue dimmed instantly, and fine cracks appeared across its surface.

Darcy also spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale.

"Priest Darcy!"

Several priests rushed forward to support him.

"I’m fine."

Darcy wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the statue in the center of the ritual.

He could not understand why, in an instant, the sea monsters summoned by the siren song had broken free of control.

Was it an accident caused by the large number of sea monsters summoned?

For now, that was not important.

The sea monsters might affect the coastline.

Darcy immediately ordered his subordinates loudly:

"The sea monsters have broken free of divine control and are heading toward the southern shore of Sea God Island. Sound the alarm. Cancel all current missions and defend Sea God Island. Send people to the southern coast to stop them. Go now!"

"Yes!"

...

On the southern coast of Sea God Island.

The Lyman Empire soldiers stationed on the ships were the first to notice the abnormal movement on the sea.

"Look! On the sea! What is that?"

"There’s something underwater! It’s coming toward us!"

"Turn on the searchlights!"

Dozens of powerful searchlights illuminated the sea surface.

When they saw the shadows beneath the water, the soldiers’ faces turned pale.

Countless sea monster silhouettes were rapidly approaching the coast from beneath the sea.

"What is going on? Didn’t they say the attack was limited to the east?"

"Sea monsters! It’s sea monsters!"

"Fall back to shore! Activate ship defensive barriers and retreat!"

The soldiers hurriedly activated the defensive barriers on the ships and retreated to shore.

Before they could catch their breath, large numbers of sea monsters surged onto the beach with the waves.

The sea monsters were clearly enraged, their eyes blood-red, rushing onto land along the shore.

The Sea God Island guard forces were also stunned.

Weren’t they supposed to only attack the eastern coast?

And why were these sea monsters so much stronger than the previous wave, all rushing toward land?

"The number is too high! Fall back!"

The imperial soldiers, seeing so many sea monsters, felt their scalps go numb and retreated together with the Sea God Island guards.

But if they kept retreating, what about the ships?

Looking up, the ships at the shore were still protected by defensive barriers, but they were already surrounded by sea monsters.

"Go report to the captain!"

The sea monsters had little interest in attacking unmanned ships, but they were not completely uninterested.

However, there was nothing they could do.

Faced with the overwhelming tide of sea monsters, staying would only mean death.

Now they could only hope the sea monsters would retreat soon.

The ship’s defensive barriers were strong and should hold for a while.

"Boom!"

Just as the deputy captain was praying, a loud explosion came from the flagship.

What?

He looked up in shock and saw the defensive barrier of the flagship suddenly shatter.

Huh?

The flagship barrier was extremely strong. How did it break so quickly?

Before they could react, the barriers of the other two ships also collapsed one after another.

Countless sea monsters quickly climbed onto the ships, engulfing them.

"D*mn it! Fall back! Fall back!"

The deputy captain shouted, ordering an orderly retreat deeper into the island, sweat covering his forehead, and shouted again, "Report to His Majesty immediately!"
