The Lobster Guardian Knight hero, who had pretended to join, led his hundred-man squad, assisting the Seahorse Knight Centurion in searching for the sea clans.
Their rich combat experience and exquisite combat skills quickly caught attention.
The Lobster Guardian Knight hero led his hundred riders, forming a standard wedge formation, much like a sharp knife thrusting into the resisting sea clan tribe. With just one charge, they shattered the enemy’s formation, which was ten times their size, and then, with great coordination, split into ten smaller squads, further dismembering the enemy formation, reaping lives with their bone spears.
They felt no psychological burden about this since the nearby waters were supposed to fall under the jurisdiction of the Ocean Crown. Therefore, these sea clans were considered threats to their territory, and now was an excellent opportunity to clear them out.
Under such terrifyingly efficient attacks, the sea clan tribe soon chose to surrender and were escorted back by the Lobster Guardian Knights.
“Your combat prowess is impressive. 1 truly didn’t misjudge you!” praised the Seahorse Knight Centurion as he approached, patting the hero’s shoulder.
Their exceptional combat skills and flawless teamwork were on par with the regular army. These courageous warriors should join forces to conquer the sea alongside them!
“It’s just a small trick…” replied the Lobster Guardian Knight hero modestly, but in his heart, he couldn’t help but smirk. They had followed their Lord in numerous battles, encountering all sorts of enemies and situations. Even in situations where almost the entire army was annihilated, they had developed combat skills and awareness that were beyond the reach of ordinary sea clans.
The Seahorse Knight Centurion was unaware of what was going on in the hero’s mind.
He let out a sigh tinged with disappointment and remarked, “It’s unfortunate that your tribe’s population is still relatively small. If we had more of your folks, we could assemble a thousand-strong unit and catch the Lord’s attention.”
The Lobster Guardian Knight hero’s heart trembled, and he respectfully replied, “In fact, our Lobster Knight clan isn’t just limited to our Lobster tribe. There are several tribes scattered in other areas of the sea. If you need, I can try to call them to serve under Lord of the Waves.”
The Seahorse Knight Centurion was momentarily stunned, then pleasantly surprised, “That would be excellent! If you can bring them here, and if more sea clans join the Lord’s cause, feeling His grace, it would be a great achievement!”
The Lobster Guardian Knight hero nodded. “I will send my clansmen to inform them right away.”
A squad of ten individuals broke away from the group and left in various directions.
On the second and third days, they brought back nine hundred “clansmen,” forming a complete thousand-man formation with the original hundred-man squad.
The most terrifying aspect of cavalry was their numbers. After forming a thousand-man formation, the Lobster Guardian Knights’ combat prowess increased several times over, and each of them was incredibly brave, fearless in the face of death. In each battle, they charged at the forefront, and the heads of the sea clans they killed could easily pile up like a mountain.
Such outstanding achievements and performances caught the attention of Lord of the Waves, and most of his initial doubts were dispelled.
It seemed that there were indeed fierce sea clans out in the ocean.
After several days of battle, the Lobster Guardian Knights gained more trust and were allowed to bring in more clansmen. The size of their group once again increased, reaching over two thousand three hundred members.
Unbeknownst to anyone, all the Lobster Guardian Knights had seamlessly integrated into the Lord of the Waves’ army, holding the highest positions among all the subordinate forces.
During this time, the search range of the Lord of the Waves; army gradually approached the Stormy Sea.
“Milord, according to the reports, the Knight Legion has infiltrated the enemy’s army entirely,” Alice said with an expression of astonishment she couldn’t contain. She hadn’t expected it to be so easy to blend in with the enemy, and it seemed they had gained considerable trust.
Ji Chen smiled, and in truth, he was also somewhat surprised by how smoothly the plan was proceeding. If it weren’t for the Resurrection Altar as a backup, he wouldn’t have risked sending the Knight Legion into the enemy’s midst like this.
Over two thousand fifth-tier units were mixed among nearly a hundred thousand enemy troops. Once discovered, it would almost certainly mean death. However, if these two thousand-plus units were used effectively, they could provide a crucial advantage at critical moments.
“We also learned that the leader of this sea clan army is called Lord of the Waves. He usually hides within the water tornado and rarely reveals his true appearance to others.
Under Lord of the Waves, there is also a sixth-tier unit army, estimated to consist of three thousand troops, but we don’t yet know the exact type of units.”
Ji Chen expression grew slightly graver as he thought about these sixth-tier units. Each sixth-tier unit was not to be underestimated.
Among his subordinates, perhaps only the recently promoted 5th Tier 9-star Blue Dragon Blood Murloc could contend with one or two, aside from that, there was also Benbo, who had recently risen to Legendary tier not long ago.
Thinking of the tremendous boost Benbo’s promotion had brought, Ji Chen felt a bit more confident.
“Has Sonia returned?”
“She should be back on New Moon Islands today.”
After some consideration, Ji Chen decided to recall her from Starshine Islands.
Although this left Starshine Islands without protection, and problems might arise, New Moon Islands and the Ocean Crown were his fundamental bases and couldn’t afford any mistakes.
Facing Lord of the Waves, this formidable adversary, he knew he had to unite all available forces to contend with him..
