This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 148 The Territory Built by Captives

When the giant hand of water lifted all the enemy ships into the sky, the tidal domain suppressed them immobile.

All the enemies collapsed. The battleship didn't fire a single shell, didn't launch an attack, and they didn't even get off the boat when they came here, so they lost the will to resist.

He dropped his helmet and armor, looking depressed.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen withdrew his mana with a wave of his hand.

The giant hand of water instantly became a rootless duckweed, scattered into water, and fell into the sea with the battleship.

boom--

The battleship slammed heavily on the sea, sank suddenly, and was then bounced up by the sea water, splashing into the sky, drenching Gassani and others on the deck into drowned chickens.

At this time, the friendly forces that had ended the other two battlefields arrived late and took control of the warships and personnel of this fleet.

After gaining absolute control, Ji Chen released the Tidal Domain with a wave of his hand.

There is not much to say about this skill.

Three words.

Invincible!
Without taking care of counting the casualties of the enemy and ourselves, the three captured fleets merged together again, and the guards and sailors of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce looked at each other with embarrassing eyes.

Unexpectedly, within a few hours of separation, everyone became prisoners.

Can be described as

The three fleets merged again and sailed to the Crescent Islands together. After a circle, they stopped in the water village. 38 warships from the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce passed the gate of the water village in a row and entered the inner pier to berth.

Why not forty?

Because two enemy ships were severely damaged by giant squid during the battle, the hulls were flooded with water, and they fell into the deep sea with hundreds of people on board.

It was also the worst casualty ever seen by the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce.

After mooring to the pier, the captives were bound by their wrists one by one, and they were all driven off the ship in a line.

Seeing this scene, the residents of Ocean Crown began to discuss.

"These people belong to the Laoshizi Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce, right? They were defeated in just a few hours, aren't they too weak?"

"Indeed, there is one thing to say. I think they were defeated without even disembarking the boat. It's not an ordinary dish. What kind of confidence do they have to dare to attack the crown of the ocean? It can only be said to be very brave."

"With the lords around, they can't even set foot on the New Moon Islands. The only chance to set foot on them is to become captives after defeat."

"It's so terrifying! The lord's martial arts are prosperous!"

Looking at the residents pointing at them on both sides of the road, the prisoner was ashamed for a while, his face was full of frustration, and he wanted to bury his head in the ground.

Killing people has to be punished!

How aggressive it was at the beginning, how embarrassed it is now.

Among them, Gassani, who was hiding in the middle, was particularly embarrassing.

What is stealing chicken without losing rice?

Well now, not only did he not capture this archipelago, but he became a prisoner himself.

As the culprit who planned the two attacks, I don't know how to deal with him.

Soon, Gassani knew where he was going.

He was escorted to a dark mine that day. The environment was very harsh, the labor intensity was extremely high, and the guards were extremely strict.

Anyone who can be assigned here as a prisoner is full of evil.

On this day, when Willow came up from the mine, disheveled and dragging his exhausted body, to receive today's food.

He suddenly saw a familiar figure approaching the door.

Take a closer look.

He was stunned for a moment, then excited and ecstatic. He dropped the pickaxe in his hand and rushed over at a sprint speed.

this moment.

Gassani and Willow staged a touching scene of meeting master and servant.

When Willow rushed in front of Gassani, Gassani hadn't recognized him yet, but saw a man with a black face and unkempt hair rushing in front of him, scaring him.

Who is this guy?
Why is the skin so dark like the people on the southern continent?
The sphere of influence of this territory is really not small, it can actually buy slaves from somewhere in the Southern Continent
"My lord, it's me! Your loyal subordinate Willow!"

When the black man spoke with two rows of white teeth, Gassani recognized it with a look of horror.

"Willow, so you are not dead, but why are you here?"

Hearing this, Willow burst into tears like a diarrhea, and a pair of dirty hands grabbed the corner of Gassani's clothes.

"Stop talking, I was ordered by you to attack this territory last time, but I didn't expect to be attacked instead, and everyone became a prisoner."

"In the end, I was escorted here, eating food like pig food, sleeping in a dilapidated house like a cowshed, and living a mining life with no hope!"

"But since you have appeared here, Lord Gasani, doesn't that mean that you have captured this place and expelled that lord?"

Speaking of this, Willow seemed to have been redeemed, raised his hands to the sky, and laughed

"The Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce and your lord's light finally shines here!"

"I have suffered a lot here, but don't worry, I have not succumbed to the enemy's majesty, even if I was tortured like this, I haven't revealed any news about you!"

"My loyalty can be learned from heaven and earth!"

"However, Mr. Gasani, why don't you speak? Isn't it a happy event to kill that lord? Why does your face look a little strange..."

At this moment, Willow suddenly felt something and asked inexplicably.

Gassani immediately turned his head in embarrassment, pretending not to hear the words.

"Clap clap~"

Applause sounded behind him, accompanied by a voice that made him have nightmares.

"What a lesson in loyalty! Well said!"

At this time, Willow saw Ji Chen walking behind, and was stunned.

Glancing at Gassani, then at Ji Chen, he suddenly reacted, as if he had lost all hope, and said with a sad face: "What I just said was just a joke, do you believe it?"

Ji Chen showed a kind smile, and told the foreman who was following him, pointing to him, "This week, his food will be lowered to another level, and he will be responsible for carrying the excrement of the miners in the future."

"Do not!!!"

Willow's screams resounded through the sky.

This time, the aggressive and confident offensive of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce collapsed in just a few hours, and a large number of sailors and guards became captives of the Crown of the Sea.

But the number of captives this time far exceeds any previous time.

According to statistics, in addition to those who died or disappeared in the battle, more than [-] people from the fleet of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce became prisoners.

Most of them are guards and armed sailors, accounting for about 80%, and the remaining 20% ​​are various crew members, including craftsmen, cooks, maids, slaves, etc.

With such a large number of prisoners, it took half a day even to escort them off the ship.

Among them, those with skills will be assigned to work in the territory after they are determined to be harmless after review.

Without skills, only guards and sailors who fight and kill.

They will be assigned to various resource points and places that require labor, and do some heavy physical work such as mining, logging, etc., completely freeing the hands of the residents of the crown of the ocean.

They contribute to the development of Ocean Crown until the last drop of blood and tears is burned.

Moreover, Ji Chen also noticed one thing.

If the kobolds at the beginning were also counted as captives, then from that time until now.

Before and after the crown of the ocean, more than 6000 captives have been captured.

This number is even much more than the official number of residents, almost twice the number.

This leads to a very distorted population structure.

It can be said that at least half of the current development and prosperity of Ocean Crown is based on these captives.

It is also because of this wave of captives that the population of Ocean Crown is now approaching the [-] mark, and the food problem that was not a worry before has also become prominent at this time.

In the Lord's Mansion.

Ji Chen sat in the first place, and Willus was reporting the situation of the territory.

"My lord, the sudden addition of so many captives will definitely have a huge impact on the food reserves of the territory! And the sea rice still has some time to mature, and the food consumption is too fast."

There was concern on Willus's face. As the internal affairs officer of the Crown of the Ocean, he had a natural sensitivity to food issues.

Not to mention thousands of captives, even thousands of fish would eat a lot.

The food in the warehouse flowed out like water.

Thinking of this, Willus felt a lot of resentment towards the half-orc who had only been here for a few days.

Those big guys can eat more than one, and the food they can eat in one meal is comparable to that of five humans.

The problem of too fast food consumption now also has their share of credit.

"How long will the current food reserves in the territory last?"

"We found a lot from the ship of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce, but according to this consumption rate, it is estimated that it will last for less than half a month."

half a month?
Ji Chen rubbed his chin, the amount was indeed less.

As a territory with a population of nearly [-], it would be relatively safe to store food for at least three months.

"It's really more." Looking at Willus, who is suffering and worried for the crown of the ocean, Ji Chen is quite relieved, and then smiled and said: "But don't worry too much, I have found a solution."

"A solution has been found!?" Willus's eyes were full of surprise, seeing Ji Chen put a few glowing mushrooms on the table.

The slightly old face was a little puzzled, "This is the solution?"

"That's right, it's called a fluorescent mushroom. Even though it's so small, ordinary people only need to eat two or three to satisfy their daily food needs."

Hearing this, Willus showed a look of suspicion, and after getting Ji Chen's permission, he took one and ate it.

After chewing carefully and swallowing it into the stomach, a feeling of fullness suddenly came to my heart.

"It's so amazing!?" Willus looked at the fluorescent mushrooms on the table in great surprise, as if he was looking at some peerless treasure.

Although the taste is very woody and the taste is extremely weird, it still cannot hide its huge effect.

And to take a step back, this kind of mushroom can also be used exclusively for captives, which can save a lot of decent food.

"Such a magical mushroom, where did you get it, my lord?"

"The fluorescent mushrooms are produced in the underground lizardman kingdom."

Underground Lizardmen Kingdom.
Willus muttered to himself, he had also heard about this place in the past two days, and there is a deeper and wider underground space under the kobold cave.

But this is not what he cares about at this time. What he is most concerned about now is the yield of this mushroom.

First guessing what he was thinking, Ji Chen quickly continued.

"This kind of fluorescent mushroom can only grow underground. As long as there is enough soil and the powder of the luminescent plant, it can grow quickly. The time from planting to maturity is almost the same as that of seawater rice."

Willows' eyes widened suddenly, a burst of ecstasy.

If it can be planted on a large scale, let alone 1 people, 10 people can afford it!

"In the next few days, a batch of fluorescent mushrooms will be sent from the underground lizard kingdom to alleviate the current food problem. Remember to send someone to receive them."

"After I have conquered and unified all the underground lizardman kingdoms, I will let the lizardmen try their best to plant them, and then they will be able to harvest continuously."

"In addition, when the stock of fluorescent mushrooms is full, it will also become one of the signature products of Ocean Crown's foreign trade."

Sending Willus to deal with things, Ji Chen began to think about the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce.

Through interrogation, it was learned that in this attack, the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce directly mobilized three-fifths of the entire Chamber of Commerce's strength in order to be "safety", which can be described as the best.

As long as this force does not encounter the large fleets of principalities, kingdoms and other forces, it can almost exist in the Western Mediterranean.

However, under Ji Chen's strong blocking, the result was not good.

Not only the battleship was captured and sunk, most of the personnel were captured, but also several members of the leading chamber of commerce were also reduced to prisoners, enjoying a lifetime of prison food.

It can be said that the loss was extremely heavy.

But the remaining two-fifths of the power of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce is still not a small force.

According to Gassani, however, the remaining two-fifths were controlled by the remaining members, who shared Raymond's ideas or were ambivalent about them.

But no matter what it is, I believe that the huge damage they suffered this time is enough to make them fully awake, and they no longer have the idea of ​​​​infecting the Crescent Islands.

If they're smart enough, they know that the Ocean's Crown is a territory they can't afford to mess with.

But if he is still obsessed with his obsession, Ji Chen doesn't mind leading his troops to the Western Continent after freeing up his hands, and let them be completely destroyed and disappear in this world.

Handle the matter of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce properly.

three days later.

Ji Chen led the army through the passage again and came to the underground kingdom of lizardmen—the kingdom of Doc.

Started to deal with the war with the other three lizardman kingdoms.

At this time, on the borders between Doc Kingdom and other kingdoms, the smoke of war is getting thicker and thicker, and there are more and more frictions between the two sides.

But even so, the other three lizardman kingdoms couldn't even think of it. Why did the Doc kingdom take the initiative to start a war with them?
And the sea water hits three.

Is this lizard head watts?

As everyone knows, at this time, the lizardman elders of the Doc Kingdom also looked bitter and helpless.
