Chapter 523: Army of Stags, Mysterious Behemoth – This is the ‘Graveyard’

The flagship of the Bass Kingdom’s third fleet.

“The things you’ve provided are quite useful,”

Inside the steel-clad command room, Duoru, with a slightly surprised expression on his face, gazed at the sea beasts lurking around the fleet. The sea beasts appeared reluctant to approach.

The Deceiver, who had never taken off his mask, spoke in a throaty voice as if he had eaten charcoal.

“We used a powerful tool and some interesting materials to create this treasure that can drive away and repel sea creatures.”

“A powerful tool?” Duoru’s interest showed on his face.

The Deceiver chuckled ominously. “You don’t need to inquire about that, sir. Just know that we can help you enter that ‘graveyard.’”

Upon hearing this, Duoru no longer pressed for details but instead looked with increasingly fiery eyes toward the depths of the sea.

A few days ago, when they received the news of the declaration of war from the Thorey Kingdom and the Pelan Kingdom, and the retreat of the land expeditionary force, they had been planning to return to the kingdom’s waters to assist in the defense. However, they suddenly received direct orders from the king – to go to this sea area and explore what appeared to be a relic left by the gods, searching for divine treasures that could turn the tide of war.

As the highest commander of the third fleet, which was second in military strength only to the first and second fleets, Duoru still didn’t believe that the kingdom would fail even if they had to wage war against three nations simultaneously. As long as their mighty navy sank the Lienhardt Royal Fleet and gained absolute naval supremacy, then transported soldiers like dumplings to the enemy’s rear, everything would turn out fine.

At that time, they could make up for the mistakes made by those damn land-based fools.

However, this was a direct command from the king, and as a loyal soldier, he could not disobey it. Therefore, on the way back, he and the fourth fleet had detached from the main force and took a different route.

But even so, Duoru couldn’t help feeling angry and disdainful. Those damn land-based fools were consuming so much of the military budget, yet they had not gained an advantage in the war. Their efforts to tie down the Lienhardt Royal Fleet were all in vain.

And that Eighth Fleet, led by that fool Shalifa, was a disgrace to the Bass Kingdom’s navy. An entire fleet was captured, and even the personnel were taken as prisoners.

Duoru didn’t care about the life or death of that idiot Shalifa, but his actions undoubtedly severely damaged the honor and image of the navy.

He had heard that the Eighth Fleet was captured by a Lord of Glory. Thinking about it, he couldn’t help but sneer.

If that Lord of Glory appeared before him, he would make him understand the anger of a Bass Kingdom soldier. He was no Shalifa.

After calming his emotions, Duoru looked towards the depths of the sea, his emotions surging.

In that place, there was a divine relic, and inside it, there was a high probability of the existence of powerful treasures left behind by the gods, which could reverse the current situation of the kingdom’s defeat.

They were determined to obtain it.

Soon, the two fleets gradually approached the depths of the sea and began to see a colossal blue water gate hundreds of meters high.

In front of this gate, the warships, tens of meters tall, seemed like insects, and they themselves were like ants.

Duoru’s gaze became even more fervent. Such a magnificent gateway could only have been created by the gods who once controlled this world and possessed supreme power.

As long as he obtained the divine treasure from it, he could more quickly reverse this damned situation. At that time, even someone like Russell, who had a reputation but lacked the ability, would be crushed under his feet!

Just as he was envisioning this beautiful scene for the future, the warship he was standing on suddenly slowed down, and eventually, it crawled at a speed like a turtle.

Duoru cursed, “What’s going on? Why did we suddenly slow down!?”

“I’ll go check the situation,” the vice-captain left the command room and quickly returned.

“Reporting, Commander, the engineering department says that two propellers suddenly stopped spinning as if something was jamming them.”

Duoru frowned, feeling a growing sense of unease, but he knew that getting agitated now wouldn’t help. He could only suppress his anger and urge, “Then go and clear it!”

“Yes, sir!”

“Damn it, why is there a problem at this crucial moment.”

Duoru grumbled, then had the vice-captain inform the other ships to reduce their speed. Since the flagship had a malfunction, the other ships couldn’t just leave it behind. They had to slow down together.

In the deep waters, a group of Dragon Blood Murlocs, led by a Murloc hero, returned.

“Lord, we’ve used seaweed to jam the propeller of that warship.”

Ji Chen nodded with a sinister smile. This seaweed trick was really effective; it could render a warship useless in no time.

However, once the enemy saw that it was seaweed causing the issue, they would quickly realize that someone was causing trouble covertly. So, they had to enter the so-called divine relic as quickly as possible.

While the Bass Kingdom fleet slowed down, Ji Chen and his group moved underwater, gradually approaching the colossal gateway that seemed to connect heaven and earth.

This gateway was not entirely above the water; it extended to a depth of dozens of meters below the surface.

Underwater, the gateway still rippled like water, as if it concealed another world inside.

Ji Chen paused for a moment and quickly realized something.

Could this gateway be something like a portal to a realm?

Did this so-called divine relic turn out to be a mystic realm?

Several heroes realized this possibility, and Alice spoke cautiously, “Lord, there might be danger inside. Let us go in first..”
