When an unexpected prompt came in, Ji Chen couldn’t help but pause for a moment.
His mind raced as he searched through his backpack, and quickly discovered a metal fragment emitting runic light in a corner.
Another treasury key fragment?
The very key fragment that the gnome merchant had mentioned as being lost in the Western-Mid Ocean was right here in this dragon’s nest!
Including this one, he currently possessed three key fragments. He got one from the gnome merchant, another from the 7-star dungeon of the Irante Temple, and this most recent one from the ocean dragon’s lair. This meant he had acquired nearly half of the seven key fragments required.
Currently, aside from these three, two key fragments were with the elves, one with the dwarves, and one was still missing. If he could obtain the one from the dwarves and find the elusive final fragment, perhaps he could unveil the ancient elven capital lost in the river of time.
He needed to remember that he had Gloria’s map!
However, the fact that two key fragments were with the elves posed a bit of a challenge. The elves were not to be underestimated, and he had no idea how they would react if they found out he had so many key fragments.
Ji Chen shook his head, putting this matter aside for now. Regardless of the circumstances, he first needed to obtain the other scattered key fragments and then inquire and test the elves’ attitude on this matter.
After confirming that there was nothing valuable left behind, he exited the cave.
At this moment, Benbo had just arrived with the Naga Legion and the Dragonblood Legion.
“Benbo, you’re late. We’ve already finished,” Anina said with a playful smile.
This dragon-blooded Murloc, who had recently been promoted to a legendary tier, froze for a moment, a hint of frustration in his eyes.
Damn, he had rushed all the way here, wanting to make a good impression, and as soon as he arrived, he was told that it was already over!?
Seeing him feeling a bit down, Ji Chen couldn’t help but smile.
“Take the Ocean Dragon Sovereign and these Ocean Dragon corpses with us, we’re returning to the Ocean Crown.”
“Yes!”
Several Sea Crystal Wynns grabbed the paralyzed Ocean Dragon Sovereign and took flight, while others each carried a ocean dragon corpse. The remaining corpses were carried by Ji Chen, using the seawater to support them.
They headed back in the direction of their territory.
Two days later, they returned to the New Moon Islands.
When the massive body of the Ocean Dragon Sovereign and the two hundred ocean dragon corpses landed heavily in the square in front of the Lord’s Castle, the residents of the Ocean Crown gathered around, looking at their lord with astonishment and admiration in their eyes.
They cheered without exception.
Even immensely powerful dragons could be defeated, cut down like a mere pig, and brought back with all four limbs removed. So, what other foe was there that their great Lord couldn’t overcome?
Even the three hundred elves who had pledged their allegiance to the Ocean Crown looked on in surprise. After all, the dragon that had been decapitated and had its limbs cut off was a legacy-tier Ocean Dragon Sovereign, a high-level dragon species, not some ordinary land dragon.
In addition to these two hundred ocean dragons, it seemed like they had just wiped out an entire ocean dragon tribe, right?
Back in the day, the dragon race had shone brightly in the Divine War, just like their elven race. Countless dragon species, under the leadership of the Dragon God, had united and occupied the fertile land of the Dragon Wilderness, building a formidable Dragon Kingdom.
Unfortunately, now, let alone dragons, even the second-generation dragons and sky dragons were few and far between. What was more common were lower-tier dragon species or dragon descendants. The decline of such a powerful race was truly lamentable.
Ji Chen spoke a few words to the residents before instructing the lizardmen to move the dragon corpses to the Half-Orc Tribe. Half-Orcs were skilled in handling hunting games, and they could maximize the use of materials from the dragons, reducing waste.
There were a total of two hundred ocean dragons here, and just the dragon blood alone amounted to ten thousand units. Other parts were equally valuable materials that were rarely found.
Dragon scales and dragonhide could be used to make armor, dragon claws, and bones for crafting weapons, dragon tendons as bowstrings, and dragon meat was also a good source of food.
The harvest from this expedition was bountiful and not something that could be processed in a short time.
Feeling weary from the journey, Ji Chen gave some brief instructions and then returned to his Lord’s Castle to rest.
He lay down on the soft, cloud-like bed and fell into a deep sleep, only waking up the next morning.
Ji Chen emerged from his room feeling refreshed, and the maid waiting at the door greeted him with delight.
“Lord, you’re awake? Sir Wilus has been waiting for you in the hall since early morning. He said he has something to report.”
“Wilus? Why didn’t he wake me up?”
The maid looked a bit dejected. “Sir Wilus said not to disturb your sleep. He thought you must be exhausted after several days of campaigning.”
Ji Chen paused and then said, “Alright, I’ll go to him now.”
In the hall, Wilus was already waiting.
Whether it was his imagination or not, it seemed like Wilus had a bit more white hair on his head than before. There was a mixture of black and white strands, and a few more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
Although he looked sharp and capable, there was an unmistakable sense of deep exhaustion in his eyes.
For a moment, Ji Chen felt a mix of relief and sympathy.
During his absence, Wilus had managed the Ocean Crown on his own, and the responsibilities and pressure he bore must have been immense. The Ocean Crown had grown far beyond its initial size, with tens of thousands of human residents and over a hundred thousand lizardmen. It had various industries, and managing such a territory was no easy task..
