When Someril finished speaking, Zhang Lisheng knew that things were gradually slipping out of his control. He also knew that the Atlanteans’ work might seem to be ludicrous in his eyes, but in fact, they were full of wisdom. The reason why he managed to deceive these smart people was because of the asymmetry of information.

When you think that the world is full of stupid people, the stupid one is, in fact, yourself…
The young man put on a contemplating expression and lowered his head. Covering his mouth, he muttered silently and sighed in secret before nodding his head,
Madam Someril, your plan is excellent. I’ll discuss with the Wizard Li’s headman.


That’s great, Doctor! I believe that, given your position in this tribe, this matter will work!
Someril took the last straw that overwhelmed the camel.
Before this, wasn’t it the US army’s airstrike on this island that allowed the Wizard Li to successfully unify the island? With that precedent example, the Wizard Li tribesmen will definitely accept this kind of simple request again.

Just like this, the detailed report made by the Atlanteans could only make the cautious Zhang Lisheng choose to compromise.
Six days later, on a rainy day, the explorers of the Shrimp World No. 2 boarded a steel battleship and sailed out with 1000 warships from the ports of the 17 outer islands. They gathered at the starting point that had been explored beforehand to become a steel torrent before sailing towards their target that was 2,500 kilometers away.


The expedition ships this time had been loaded with the artillery imitated by the Wizard Li tribe’s genius craftsman, Aruba. Because of the unique explosive characteristics of the unusually strong black iron produced by the Hellfire Archipelago, the Wizard Li’s artillery, that was made by merging the base of the gun carriage and the ship hull into one, had a far more formidable caliber than that of the mainlanders.
Unfortunately, due to the small output of the raw materials needed to manufacture the gunpowder blocks on the 18 Wizard Li tribe’s island territories, they couldn’t use these artilleries in the battle. Instead, they shared the burden of the chief warriors who successfully transplanted with the ocean spiritual monster’s Gold Core fragment by protecting the fleet against the invasion of the monsters in the sea.
After seven days of uninterrupted sailing in the sea, the newly acquired elite weapons on the battleship did not manage to be used at all. When the Wizard Li fleet was about to arrive at the destination smoothly, in the blue sky and the vast sea surface, several dozens of water columns suddenly sprouted out of the sea.
From afar, these water columns looked as thick as a pencil with the size of a bamboo pole. However, as they carefully observed through the telescope inlaid with bright and transparent crystals, Bansaru, the flagship captain of the Wizard Li fleet, turned solemn right away.
However, after undergoing repeated challenges of tribal expansion war, the young captain had become more composed now. Despite being confident that the animals spouting water from the sea were a group of giant sea monsters, he still kept a level-head.
There was an 80% possibility of the fleet’s navigation to coincide with their swimming trajectory, and that both parties would inevitably have a fierce collision if he just ignored it. Nevertheless, he still calmly waited until the last moment and only set down the telescope once he reached a 100% certainty.

Order the fleet to stop sailing at once. The vanguard battleships will form a circular battle array for my next order!
In the steering cabin, Bansaru held the rudder lightly, turning it around as he ordered at the top of his lungs.

Yes, Captain! The fleet will stop sailing at once and form a circular battle array awaiting orders!
The dispatch commander repeated the captain’s order and stride out of the steering cabin.
Soon, they spread the order to other captains with the Super Hellfiremen’s aid. Immediately, the fleet was arranged into five arrays on the sea. Meanwhile, the vanguard battleships that were hundreds of kilometers long formed five small circles that gradually merged to become a vast circle.
The Shrimp World No. 2 explorers who were in the cabin discussing their next step after arriving on the Scorpion Island started to feel the abnormality of the ship. Someril stood up and said,
Looks like some unexpected incident has happened. In that case, the conclusion will be like this—when we reach the Scorpion Island, Guteali, Kazanoerki, Kazanona, Captain Nordick, and I will lead the Earth warriors to the battle. Since Dr. Lisheng must go to the battlefield according to the Wizard Li’s custom, we must pay special attention to protect him. As for the rest of the people, all of you will stay on the ship. If there are no objections, let us go outside and take a look at what happened.



Upon hearing Someril’s final word, Hatton and Pocky, who were affiliated to the FBI and the CIA, frowned. It was clear that they were not happy with this arrangement.
However, they did not dare to break away from the protection of the Atlanteans and the elite soldiers of Earth’s military. After all, they did not want to go to the battlefield. For this reason, they could only swallow their bitterness and helplessly walked out of the cabin with the crowds onto the deck.
At this time, the Wizard Li’s vanguard fleet had already formed a circular battle formation, and the sea monsters were about to swim across the fleet’s scheduled sailing course. There was no longer any chance of an intersection between the two parties.
All of a sudden, the leader that was swimming leisurely at the foremost of the group of sea monsters suddenly let out an earth-shattering yak-like ‘moo moo’ cry. It raised its triangular snake-like head to squirt a water column of several hundreds of meters high before swaying its long neck and charging towards the fleet.
Under its leadership, all the sea monsters also changed their swimming direction and charged towards the Wizard Li’s fleet.

Are they treating us like prey? Well then, it looks like I can offer sea monster sashimi to the great Lord!
Bansaru, who had been watching the movement of the sea monster, had a cold sneer at the corner of his mouth as he howled,
Implement combat plan No. 3! Fire the artillery at full speed!

As he shouted his order, the 100-shots canon at the side of the flagship with a 2-meter caliber spouted dazzling red light. With a terrifying speed of one shot every two seconds, it exploded its rage of fire at the sea monsters.
While the first round of the artillery shells that the flagship fired was still drawing a striking graceful arc in the sky, all warships facing the sea monsters began to shoot at once.
The artillery fire exploded in the sea and set off waves of several dozens of meters high. When the waves rippled out, it caused the warships parked several kilometers away to sway as well.
Looking at the mountain-like waves in the distant, the explorers of the Shrimp World No. 2 turned horrified right away.



I thought the reason these natives produced such bizarre artillery with large calibers were that they didn’t understand artillery casting! I thought the cannons they used were huge iron balls…
Harman’s lips were trembling maniacally as he said in dumbstruck,
Sht! The fck? The power of these cannons is like a light tomahawk missile. Look at that speedy launching frequency! How is this even possible? Be it the material of artillery or synthesis of ammunition, none of this should have appeared in the hands of a nation living in bark houses…


Mr. Harman, this is the terrifying thing about the foreign world!
Sweltman looked at the distant with bright eyes and shouted loudly, overshadowing the artillery roaring to interrupt the CIA intelligence officer.
We can’t use the law of our ‘universe’ in this place.

While both men were speaking, the sea monsters, that were attacked by the circular battle formation were already covered in severe injuries as the artillery bombarded them. Black thick blood gushed out of the wounds on their bodies and floated onto the sea surface.
After receiving injuries, the giant sea monsters that had been accustomed to staying on top of the food chain refused to surrender and roared maniacally. They did this before diving into the water to continue slamming onto the Wizard Li’s fleet.
The surging wave showed the location of the sea monsters. Some of the several thousands of the chief warriors who had successfully undergone the sea spiritual monster’s Gold Core fragment transplant howled. They then changed into all sorts of different figures, casting their sorcerous power.
A blue light radiated from their bodies and gradually flowed into the sea along the deck. This set off tumbling waves from top to bottom in the distant sea, causing the monsters in the sea to reveal themselves one after another. As they did so, they allowed the artillery on the battleships to resume their intense bombardments.
The Super Hellfiremen did not have enough power to lift the sea monsters out of the sea but were enough to shackle them and make them reveal their heads on the sea surface from time to time. The sea monsters that the artillery fire targeted quickly realized that they would die if they did not escape soon. Finally, they turned around and fled to the distant.
Just like this, the situation was completely reversed. It was the Wizard Li fleet that did not have the intention to let the giant sea beasts to escape alive. One after another, the dragon hawks flapped their wings. They flew up from the deck of the iron ships, rapidly swooping towards the escaping sea monsters. The native warriors seized the opportunity when their partners were the closest to the prey. They fiercely stabbed the wounds of the giant beasts using their wooden spears.

Oh, what are these native midgets riding on the big birds trying to do? Stabbing the whales to death using toothpicks?
Pocky, who was taken by surprise by the fierce battle, could feel that his mouth had turned dry. Unlike his usual solemn demeanor, he joked instead.
Beside him, Allison watched how the injuries that the artilleries caused on the sea monsters’ bodies had turned into a metallic luster. This happened once the indigenous warriors who were riding the dragon hawks stabbed them. She saw all of these through a telescope. She observed that the blood flowing out of the wound was gradually turning from black to green. After witnessing this, she pondered for a while before saying in solemness, entirely out of her character.
Mr. Pocky, it’s true that you’d not be able to kill a whale no matter how many times you stab it with a toothpick, but it’s a whole nother story if the toothpick is covered in poison. Don’t look down at these Wizard Li people with contempt. They can produce great ships and weapons. They also have incredible ship-maneuvering skills, war literacy, and supernatural power. They’re a nation worthy of respect.



Being taught a lesson by the Department of Defense’s intelligence officer who was over ten years younger than him, a dissatisfied expression crept upon Pocky’s face. As he was about to open his mouth to say something, he suddenly heard a series of loud sorrowful cries. Then, he saw that a giant sea monster that was over 200 meters long turned over. It showed that its belly was covered with thick white scales amid green oily dark blood, dying miserably floating on the sea.

Lieutenant Alison, I was already a qualified intelligence officer when you were still in elementary school.
Looking at the scene unfolding before his eyes with an even paler expression, the FBI intelligence officer grew silent for a while.
New York’s neighbor is far stronger than we thought. You don’t have to remind me of this, and I’ll still write this in the report.
