"Lord, what on earth is going on?"

Xiao Jing pondered for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she asked Leo Ray.

"It's very simple, we just need to try it ourselves."

Leo Ray nodded at the ready Grey Elder, instructing: "Old Chairman, see if you can make a big hole here, don't hold back, just give it your all."

"As you command, Your Majesty."

The short blade in the hands of the already prepared Grey Elder flashed with a cold glint, instantly transforming into a phantom, shooting towards the nearest barrier wall.

Boom!

Accompanied by a dull sound of energy collision, the entire ship wall remained intact, and Grey Elder's face was filled with astonishment as he quickly returned to Leo Ray's side.

"Your Majesty, this place is enveloped by an imperceptible protective barrier, and it possesses an irresistible dispersing effect, making it impossible to penetrate."

Grey Elder shook his head helplessly and reported to Leo Ray.

"Is that so?"

Leo Ray nodded slightly, as if this was within his expectations.

At the moment Grey Elder attacked, a flow of magical light indeed flickered across the ship's wall, easily blocking the full force of the former's strike.

"Lord, this absolute defense barrier is extremely mysterious, seemingly containing infinite mana, far beyond Tier 6, I fear it is at least at the demigod-level Tier 7."

Little Jie's fair face was full of astonishment, blurting out.

"No, even in my days I've only seen such an absolute defense barrier during the peak times in the Land of Divine Favor, a demigod cannot achieve this."

Elder Bing's old face was full of solemnity, correcting Little Jie's statement.

Since many powerful warriors had some understanding of Elder Bing's identity, after hearing these words, the entire scene immediately fell silent.

So it is said, this is a means reaching the Domain of the Gods? It's simply unbelievable.

"Lord, if the people of this City of Ten Thousand Ships were so powerful, why have they ended up in this state?"

Xiao Jing tilted her head, full of confusion.

"The answer is actually very simple, because this is not their handiwork. The city they left behind was merely used as a special venue, or perhaps as the stage we initially mentioned."

Having said that, Leo Ray did not conceal it and shared his thoughts about the Lord Arena with everyone, omitting some details about the "prompting voice."

After listening to Leo Ray's words, the entire scene once again fell silent.

Everyone wore expressions of shock, almost unable to believe their ears.

The Lord's words were very clear, the one controlling all this behind the scenes is undoubtedly a true deity.

"There's no need for everyone to be too surprised, don't forget that our advent as otherworldly lords was a miracle itself, though I still don't understand the reasons behind it."

Leo Ray's expression remained calm, gently raising his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty of the Humans is right, that is a realm we cannot reach, yet now, being able to witness these beside Your Majesty of the Humans is undoubtedly our honor."

Shuert nodded heavily, echoing.

"Exactly, even if the deities are the invisible hands, it has nothing to do with us."

Crisis also stepped forward, agreeing: "As long as we stay by Your Majesty of the Humans' side, we have hope for the future amidst the impending Great Catastrophe."

Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement, quickly dispelling the oppressive atmosphere.

"Your Majesty, I'm still very puzzled by one thing."

Bruno, in addition to feeling awe, asked with curiosity: "But all of this began because Your Majesty came here to rescue our Minotaur fleet, so how did the deity know you would definitely come here?"

Saying this, a look of overwhelming gratitude appeared on Bruno's bovine face, and the surrounding Minotaur warriors showed the same expression.

It's known that the Human Majesty risked his life for them, rendering them unable to repay such immense grace.

"Perhaps the deities anticipated my trajectory, or maybe not, but it is certain that this place was not set up for me alone. Therefore, whether I came or not, it would continue, just replacing me with another gladiator. More precisely, it might be that my appearance as a Lord prompted the forced connection of the barrier area, guiding us to this pre-built dueling arena."

Leo Ray shrugged and responded: "Furthermore, even if I didn't come, if they wished, they have other means to bring me here, so the process of coming here is not important for either the deity or us."

"The Lord is right, this place is indeed not exclusive to us, and we are certainly not the first."

Jasper Richardson glanced at the lord's corpse on the ground, then nodded heavily, "But no matter what, we are willing to fight for the Lord."

"We are all willing to fight for the Lord (Your Majesty of the Humans)!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present echoed in unison, full of uplifting spirit.

"I feel everyone's confidence, which makes me forge ahead."

Leo Ray's eyes shone brightly, then he gestured with his hand: "Alright, let's continue moving forward."

Hearing Leo Ray's order, the strong warriors present immediately sprang into action, advancing into the unknown depths.

The group hadn't moved forward for long when the familiar prompting voice abruptly sounded in Leo Ray's ears.

[Respected Lord Leo Ray, welcome to the 000105th Lord Arena. The arena for this session is number 000078. The competition target is treasure acquisition. A lord who successfully acquires the treasure can exit the barrier area and return to the original sea area via the same route, and will have the privilege to decide the fate of other surviving lords.]

[Prompt: The last participating lord is navigating into the arena area.]

[Prompt: The competition is about to begin.]

[Prompt: The competition has begun.]

With the conclusion of the prompt, the rumbling of numerous magic cannons echoed through the sky, and even Leo Ray and the others inside the ship's cabin could hear it clearly.

"Lord, what exactly is happening?"

Xiao Jing gripped her finely made sword tightly, her small face full of a heavy expression.

"It seems my guess was indeed correct, we must seize the so-called treasure before the other lords to leave here."

Leo Ray simply described the prompting voice he had just heard, frowning slightly.

The prompting voice laid out the rules, but it did not specify other crucial details.

Such as the number of participating lords, the location of the treasure, and so on.

Moreover, one crucial point is that there are lords currently navigating into this sea area, outside the ship's cabin, while some lords, like himself, have already entered here.

This means that the battlefield is not just within the ship's cabin but also in the sea area. If our fleet is completely wiped out, even if I secure the victory, how to leave here will be a problem, as based on the rules given by the prompting voice, we must return the same way we came, passing through that dangerous area full of Tier 6 sea demon beasts.

In other words, for me, it is evidently a situation of being unable to attend to everything at once; I cannot be present in both separate battlefields simultaneously.

Moreover, not only is the number of participating lords unclear, but the strength of each lord is also unknown.

In such a situation, if the combat force is too scattered, I will undoubtedly be in a very unfavorable position, not to mention seizing the unknown treasure.

"Your Majesty, leave the outside to us! The Minotaur fleet has been sailing the sea area for over two thousand years and will never lose to anyone else!"

Bruno apparently saw Leo Ray's difficulty, patting his muscular chest: "No matter what, since Your Majesty ventured into this perilous place for us, we will not disgrace Your Majesty!"

"Understood, I will have Elusa and a few strong warriors accompany you, unless necessary, the fleet will stand by hidden under illusion."

Leo Ray quickly made a decision and immediately began to deploy.
