The Ocean Lord Is Unusually Powerful

Dragon Island’s Dragon Team, Serena’s Ambition

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Under Herald’s lead, the dragon party managed to evade the suppression effect of the “Small Twin-Winged Demon Statue” and enter the Crown of the Ocean.

When Babatos saw the rumored Lord of the Ocean Crown, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat surprised.

Originally, he thought this Lord of Glory was just an ordinary Epic tier, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a “Domain” Epic tier.

Epic tiers also had different levels, and those who possessed a domain were undoubtedly the most formidable.

Ji Chen looked at the gigantic dragon, resembling a small hill, staring at him with eyes filled with surprise.

In a calm tone, he said, “Sir Dragon, welcome to the Crown of the Ocean. The defense against the demon invasion will undoubtedly rely on the wholehearted efforts of the members of Dragon Island.”

The golden dragon spoke in a human voice, sounding solemn, “Since you have enough gold coins to pay our fee, we will fulfill our duty to defend your territory against demon attacks as previously agreed with you and Serena.” “Naturally, but where is Serena?”

“Lord Ji Chen.”

A familiar voice sounded from beside him, followed by a white light and a tall and cold figure, wearing white scales and snow-white hair cascading down like a waterfall, with blood-red eyes resembling high-quality rubies.

It was none other than the dragon maiden Serena.

“Let me introduce you. This is our mission captain for this hire, Elder Babatos,” Serena said. “We have brought all the dragons without tasks this time, totaling three hundred and five. The rest of the dragons will arrive one after another in the next week.”

Ji Chen nodded slightly. “Could you introduce the strength of these dragons to me?”

“Of course, the employer has the right to know about the hired dragons,” Serena nodded. “These dragons are roughly divided into five tiers. The first tier naturally includes Elder Babatos, who is the most powerful dragon in this hire, just half a step away from being an Epic tier.”

Half a step from being an Epic tier?

Ji Chen paused. Dragon Island seemed to be taking this quite seriously. No matter how greedy dragons might be, they wouldn’t use a powerhouse of this level as mercenaries.

Among humans, there were specialized mercenaries who engaged in combat, and naturally, there were also bosses who held high positions and were only responsible for collecting payments. And this golden dragon named Babatos was obviously one of those bosses.

Seeing Ji Chen had no objections, Serena continued, “The second tier consists of three legendary dragon heroes, including myself. The third tier has nineteen legacy-tier dragon heroes, the fourth tier has sixty-five rare-tier dragon heroes, and the fifth tier has two hundred and seventeen excellent-tier dragon heroes.”

Ji Chen raised an eyebrow slightly.

They were all hero units. Was this army the pinnacle of Dragon Island’s strength?

Only pure-blooded dragons could be considered true members of Dragon Island. Each dragon’s lineage was traceable, and the strong bloodline ideology meant that every Dragon Island dragon was at least an excellent-tier hero.

If it came to individual strength, Dragon Island thoroughly followed the elite soldier route.

However, even though there were many dragons here, Ji Chen didn’t believe that these were all of Dragon Island’s strength. Those dragons who had truly aged were like nuclear bombs in terms of deterrent power.

Serena said, “Lord Ji Chen, do you find this team of hired dragons satisfactory?”

“Of course, but there’s something I need to emphasize.”

Serena and Babatos looked at each other, then Serena said in a solemn tone, “Please speak.”

Ji Chen said slowly, “The commission will only be paid in full after completely repelling the demon army.”

This demon invasion was not a small war. One misstep and the Crown of the Ocean would be submerged, causing mass extinction. He couldn’t guarantee that these Dragon Island dragons would exert their full strength in executing such a highly dangerous commission.

Serena was momentarily speechless. According to Dragon Island’s past hiring regulations and practices, employers generally paid thirty to fifty percent of the commission upfront, with the remainder paid after the mission’s completion.

Such a request clearly violated the customary practice.

Babatos stared with dragon eyes, pondered for a moment, then looked at Ji Chen and said, “Very well, I agree to this condition.”

Ji Chen’s expression relaxed, revealing a smile.

“Hope we have a pleasant cooperation.”

He instructed Wilus to arrange a place for these dragons to rest, which essentially meant letting them find a place to rest on their own in the jungle in the northwest part of the main island. With so many dragons, the Crown of the Ocean couldn’t afford to build nests for each of them individually.

Only Babatos and the three legendary-tier strong dragons, including Serena, who could transform into human forms, were arranged in special guest rooms.

As for the issue of dragon food, Ji Chen had already discussed this with Serena. The dragons would catch sea beasts in the waters around the New Moon Islands to solve their own food problems.

This arrangement was quite beneficial for the Crown of the Ocean. After all, dragons were such large creatures that even a small portion of them would consume a considerable amount of food. If all three hundred dragons relied on the Crown of the Ocean for food, there wouldn’t be enough to go around.

Furthermore, the insurance fees and time costs that employers usually had to bear for Dragon Island’s dragons when they went on missions were all borne by Dragon Island itself, something unprecedented in the history of dragon hiring..
