Chapter 116: Chapter 89: Monster (Seeking

Recommendation Tickets)

In the pitch-black night, the sea was calm and the waves were gentle.

Three medium-sized fishing boats and eight small ones were moored at a small island, all part of the same fishing fleet that had agreed to meet near this island before heading back home.

“How was the catch on your side?”

“Eighty percent.”

An eighty percent storage rate meant the boats were nearly full to the brim.

The remaining twenty percent of space was left for safety reasons, to avoid overloading the boats.

It was also left so that on the homeward journey, they could cast a few more nets, which might lead to the discovery of a precious school of fish.

“How about you?”

The bonfire flickered; after topping up with enough fresh water on the island, the five to six days of sailing that lay ahead seemed like a leisurely vacation.

However, nobody actually treated these days as holidays.

After all, they all had families, and no matter how beautiful and free the scenery at sea was, gazing upon it too much could still become tiresome.

Those who had never been to sea could never comprehend how monotonous and oppressive the uniformity of sea life for several months could be.

Those who couldn’t get used to it would probably be crying to go home within a week.

Thankfully, the fishermen had the joy of a rich harvest.

Just the thought of selling the seafood from the boats and exchanging it for money to improve the lives of their families and themselves brought a faint smile to almost every fisherman and crew member’s face.

This is the Azure Duchy, different from the Iron Eagle; Azure is a country that pays a lot of attention to the welfare and development of its people.

The Three Dukes of Azure do not treat their citizens as harshly as the Seven Kings of the Iron Eagle.

In fact, the Iron Eagle Kingdom is a feudal system with seven autonomous territories.

In many places, it may be that just across a river, the laws are completely different.

Among the seven Princely Kings, the Iron Eagle King was elected as the leader of the kingdom for having overthrown the reign of the Kingdom of Yatun.

As mentioned by Uncle and Bailuo, among the Seven Kings, five were Masters of Miracles who treated the common people extremely poorly, including the Iron Eagle King and Count Thorn.

The former does not regard mortals as human, while the latter is just a super homebody who doesn’t care about affairs at all.

Count Thorn delegated all the affairs, big and small, in his territory to those greedy and idle dignitaries.

The wretched state of Thistle Province owes much to Count Thorn’s indulgence and the brazenness of the privileged.

Besides that, the territory of the Lord of the Birch Trees is more like a hell on earth.

Even Uncle did not want to tell Bailuo more, saying that he definitely wouldn’t want to know how terrifying that place was.

Of course, not all the Seven Kings were incompetent.

The Marchioness, who had received Miracle Power for over 4,000 years, had created the Eternal City, which was simply the Las Vegas of this world (4,000 years is correct).

It could be said that eighty percent of the GDP of the Iron Eagle Kingdom was contributed by her.

Then there’s the Archduke, an immensely powerful being with over 800 years of Miracle Power, who is the main reason the Brilliant Duchy, the island nation to the east, does not dare to rashly invade the Iron Eagle.

But as strong as the Archduke is, he is but one man.

Indeed, this man has no Miracle Citizens under him, nor a Miracle Army at his command.

The Archduke’s subjects are nothing more than a mere 200,000 or so common residents.

Among the many lords of the Iron Eagle Kingdom, with per capita subjects numbering in the millions, even close to tens of millions, the Archduke is certainly an anomaly among anomalies.

However, not many know why the Archduke does not cultivate his own base.

“Thank goodness we are Azure Citizens.”

“Yes, absolutely.”

“A toast to Azure!”

“For Azure!”

Azure Citizens feel a strong sense of belonging to their country, and the efforts of the Three Dukes of Azure over the past five hundred years have not been in vain, as they have truly built their nation into a paradise at sea.

“Boom!!!”

As everyone on the island was enjoying a joyful banquet, a world-shaking noise came from the distance.

“What’s going on?”

The fishermen immediately rose to their feet and looked towards the horizon.

The next moment, they saw the most terrifying sight of their lives. Giant sea monsters of various shapes surged up from the depths of the ocean and swiftly approached the island.

“It’s sea monsters!”

“No, that’s impossible!”

“How can there be sea monsters on a clear day?!”

“Why is this happening?!”

The Azure Duchy may have provided its people with a high quality of life through Miracle Power, but they still resorted to keeping the ignorant in the dark, sharing secrets only with the chosen Miracle Citizens capable of harnessing Miracle Power.

This meant that often, when mortals witnessed a battle involving Miracle Power, their fate was sure to be tragic.

“Boom!”

A gigantic mouth rose from the depths of the sea and bit a boat in half.

The creature had a body tens of meters long with tentacled maws, resembling a Bobbit Worm.

“Bang bang bang!”

Apparently deeming the boat not tasty enough, a centipede-like sea monster with countless limbs rushed towards the shore.

Wherever it passed, rocks, sand, and ground were left with countless traces shredded by its myriad legs.

“Ah!!”

“Help!”

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh!”

A giant sea monster resembling a crab waved six sharp blades around, and in the blink of an eye, it chopped the people on the island, along with trees, forests, and boulders, into pieces.

“Hahaha, humans, it’s the taste of living humans.”

A group of fierce pirates with gills, scales, and bodies covered with shells and barnacles surged up from the bottom of the sea to the beach.

They laughed maniacally as they killed the fishermen, extinguishing flames as though they loathed anything that gave off heat and light.

“Monsters! Help, help me, ah!!”

A fisherman was pinned down by a creature with an octopus-like head, which swallowed the upper half of the fisherman and sucked on it as if enjoying a delicious popsicle.

“Disgusting.”

Just then, a silver-blue rope, like a bolt of lightning, descended from the sky. It lashed out from the darkness, striking straight at the Octopus Monstrosity.

“Ahh!!!”

The Octopus Monstrosity wailed in agony as the silver-blue whip struck it, causing the skin to split and blacken as if seared by a red-hot iron.

“Ugh.”

“Gurgle gurgle.”

In pain, the Octopus Monstrosity hastily retreated, expelling the fisherman from its mouth.

But seeing the man, covered in slime, even his head pierced by sharp appendages, was almost enough to make the newcomers vomit on the spot.

“That’s truly revolting. And you call yourselves Miracle Citizens? Is this all you’ve got?”

Moonlight spilled down, lighting up the edge of the forest like stage lighting.

And out of nowhere, a group of men and women wearing silver cloaks and standing beside colorful giant eagles watched the sea monsters and monsters on the shore.

At their forefront was a tall woman holding a massive Cavalry Spear and wearing a helmet adorned with feathers.

She surveyed the surroundings, her face growing darker as she observed the bloody carnage and the bodies and dead fish floating on the sea.
