However, after the events of the past, the entire family and the princ.i.p.ality had been thoroughly controlled by the Elves, becoming mere puppets and va.s.sals with no chance of rebellion.

The Elven Emba.s.sy, reception hall.

Ji Chen sat across from Miligas, the atmosphere pleasant, with goblets clinking.

“Lord Miligas, are you satisfied with this outcome?”

“Of course, I am more than satisfied. I never expected Lord Ji Chen to find the flaw in the Gremolagen family from such a unique perspective,” Miligas laughed heartily, his eyes filled with delight.

He truly hadn’t expected that the breakthrough in solving this challenging case would come from a kept young man. The effect had been incredibly good, as they had effortlessly caused the Gremolagen family to bleed profusely, resolved the disruption to the Queen’s ceremony, and strengthened their control over the Maple Princ.i.p.ality.

This was killing two birds with one stone!

Thinking about the credit for this matter, Miligas was in a great mood and said, “I am deeply grateful for your a.s.sistance in breaking this case in just a few days. I’ve already had my soldiers transport the agreed-upon crystal rewards, and they will be delivered to you soon. I a.s.sure you, it won’t disappoint you!”

Ji Chen smiled and said, “Thank you in advance, Lord Miligas.”

Soon, Elven soldiers brought in chests filled with luminescent crystals, and Ji Chen, to the surprise of the Elves, began to collect the crystals from each chest one by one. When the last chest was emptied, the counter on the item panel stopped its continuous movement.

“Ding- You have collected a total of sixty thousand units of crystal.”

With this sixty thousand units, his crystal inventory now reached a total of 67,500 units. It was more than enough to cover the crystals needed for the construction of the Heraklion Temple.

Just by talking a bit and spending some gold coins, he could get a reward of tens of thousands of crystals. This deal was truly worthwhile!

Under Miligas’s warm farewell, Ji Chen left the Elven Emba.s.sy and returned to the Black Gold District Cat’s Tail Tavern.

“Have you done what I instructed you to do?”

Luo Yang replied respectfully, “As per your instructions, 1 gave that player two hundred thousand gold coins and sent him on his way to Lienhardt. He’s probably on the road by now.”

The young player had provided crucial information, making him well deserving of this hefty reward.

Ji Chen nodded and, with a flick of his hand, placed a gla.s.s bottle containing golden liquid into Luo Yang’s hands. He said lightly in the face of Luo Yang’s surprised look, “You’ve done well with these tasks. I’m very satisfied. This is a potion that can enhance your life potential. Consider it a reward.”

Luo Yang looked at the potion in his hand, his eyes filled with excitement.

Even for a player like him who had no combat capabilities, he knew how valuable something that could increase life potential was.

Enhancing career tiers, increasing lifespan, improving hero potential, and so on—this potion was an invaluable item!

“Thank you, Young Master Zhao! As long as you give the word, I won’t hesitate to face any danger, even if it means going through h.e.l.l!”

Ji Chen smiled faintly. “As long as you sincerely help me with my tasks, 1 won’t let you down.

Next, you’ll clean up the shop on the south-facing street in the city. We’ll soon have a batch of wine to be delivered there for sale.”

“But I mentioned to you earlier that selling alcohol requires…”

Ji Chen waved his hand. “I’ve already talked to the Elves about this. You don’t need to worry. Our wine, along with other goods, will enter the Maple Princ.i.p.ality without tax. The permit to sell alcohol will be issued shortly.

Later, you’ll go to Maple Port and find a merchant named Raymond to coordinate with him.”

Luo Yang suddenly realized the magnitude of what they had accomplished for the Elves this time, so this task seemed like a minor issue.

“I understand.”

Ji Chen thought for a moment and added, “When you meet him, tell him it was

Ji Chen who sent you.”

“Ji Chen?”

Luo Yang paused, feeling like he had heard that name before. After a moment of reflection, he suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Ji Chen, wasn’t that the Islander from the forums?!

And the Islander turned out to be Young Master Zhao?

Luo Yang realized this only now, but Ji Chen had already left. His heart remained unsettled for a long time.

After leaving Black Gold District, Ji Chen went to Maple Port to instruct Raymond about importing goods. Then he led his troops back to the Ocean Crown.

This trip to the Maple Princ.i.p.ality had yielded many rewards.

Tens of thousands of crystals, unique wonder blueprints, reaching level fifty, recruiting five sixth-tier units, a legendary Druid certificate, an above-epic Siren potential template, and Alice’s potential upgraded to epic tier…

Plus the t.i.tle and list of “Silvermoon Dynasty Friendly Territory” given by the Elves.

Thinking about these rewards, any one of which could drive players crazy, a satisfied smile formed at the corner of Ji Chen’s mouth.

However, there were still some regrets on this trip.

He had instructed Luo Yang and the Elves to find a merchant named Ari Camp who had come from the Desert Kingdom of the Southern Continent.

According to Miligas, Ari Camp had arrived in the Maple Princ.i.p.ality and had requested to see him at the Elven Emba.s.sy. However, he and Black were not in the emba.s.sy at the time, so the guards ignored him.

Then, according to customs records, Ari Camp had seemingly left the Maple Princ.i.p.ality with his servants not long after, by s.h.i.+p. His whereabouts were unknown.

Ji Chen’s plan to develop a route to the Southern Continent had fallen through. He had asked Luo Yang, Raymond, and the Elves to keep an eye out, but he didn’t dwell on it.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to find Ari Camp; it was just that there was no direction or clue to follow, so he could only go with the flow.

This forced him to start thinking about other ways to develop the route.

After thinking for a long time, he couldn’t come up with any effective plans immediately. Ji Chen closed his eyes, blew the gentle sea breeze, and temporarily cleared his mind.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a long and deep roar coming from the east, which surprised him slightly and made him open his eyes.

Was that… a dragon’s roar?

Was there a dragon nearby?!

Ji Chen’s interest was piqued instantly.

Dragons were rare creatures, and judging from the majestic roar that sounded like it could pierce through gold and stone, it was at least a second-tier dragon species!

Without the slightest hesitation, Ji Chen immediately changed the direction of his army and rushed towards the direction of the dragon’s roar.

As the saying goes, “Thirty years on the east bank of the river, thirty years on the west bank.” (T/N: A Chinese idiom that emphasizes the fluidity of life and the need to adapt to changing circ.u.mstances.)

The Ocean Crown’s current power had grown to the point where it could contend with powerful dragon species. He had two legendary-tier heroes and two legacy-tier heroes by his side. Even if it was a second-tier dragon species, they could give it a run for its money!

This unknown dragon species seemed to have no intention of concealing its whereabouts at all. It roared loudly all the way, spreading throughout the entire sea area.

They soon saw a dragon with a deep blue body soaring in the sky, playfully chasing a group of large sea eagles.

It was more like teasing than hunting.

This deep blue dragon was about twenty-five meters long, with wings on its back and four limbs with sharp, metallic-like claws.

With a flap of its scaly wings, it created a sharp hurricane that sent the panicked sea eagles tumbling in all directions. It caught up to them but didn’t attack, just flying up and down around them, creating chaotic air currents that left the sea eagles in a sorry state.

The high-pitched dragon roars sounded more like mockery of its prey.

[Ocean Dragon (Adult)]

[Race]: Dragon

[Tier]: Sixth Tier, 6 stars

[Level]: 50

[Skills]: N/A

Dragons in the second generation were usually quite powerful, often at or above the sixth tier. However, this particular Ocean Dragon was comparatively weaker, sitting at the sixth tier with 6 stars.

If there were a large group of Ocean Dragons, Ji Chen might have been more cautious, but a single one didn’t pose a significant threat.

At this moment, the Ocean Dragon, which had been chasing its prey, also noticed Ji Chen and his group of “intruders.” It instinctively let out a loud roar and started flying towards them. However, upon closer inspection, it saw dozens of weaker auras and a few auras that seemed unusual among the sea creatures. The entire dragon stopped in its tracks.

Just a moment of hesitation, and the Ocean Dragon flapped its wings and fled into the distance.

Ji Chen was momentarily stunned and quickly shouted, “Chase after it!”
