Chapter 158: I Love Black Stocking’s Request, Ancient Ruins

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ancient Ruins?

A key?

Ji Chen’s eyes sparked with interest; it seemed quite intriguing.

After traveling a long distance to get here, it would be great if he could bring something back along the way.

With this thought in mind, Ji Chen nodded slowly. “What do you want me to help you with?”

Upon hearing this response, I_Love_Black_Stockings showed a hint of excitement on her face.

“Help me eliminate, no, completely destroy several players near my territory and their territories,” she said without hesitation, her tone decisive.

There was no politeness, only a ruthless determination to exterminate her enemies.

As expected, Ji Chen narrowed his eyes in response, having already guessed the nature of her request.

Aside from harmonious trade, communication, and mutual a.s.sistance between players, there was no shortage of mutual killing and slaughter.

Unlike the New Moon Islands, where he was the only player and didn’t have to kill others for survival s.p.a.ce from the beginning, King Kong Island was characterized by bloodshed and killing.

Perhaps when a dominant player appears who could easily suppress others, or when the entire island was left with enough resources to support a certain number of lords, this situation might disappear.

After a long silence, Ji Chen looked at I_Love_Black_Stockings and spoke slowly.

“Alright, but you better ensure that the key is genuine and that the ancient ruins actually exist. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”

Finis.h.i.+ng his words, a cold glint appeared in his profound eyes as the power of the Tidal Lord profession burst forth within a hundred meters radius.

On the surface of the sea, waves surged upwards, creating a colossal water giant that stood tens of meters tall. Its gaze was fixed firmly on her.

Within a hundred meters, all the residents and troops of I_Love_Black_ Stockings looked at him with fear in their eyes.

Their bodies felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, unable to resist the pressure, and they knelt down on the ground.

Even her Blue Excellent-Tier hero, in the face of this overwhelming might, was caught off guard, tense all over as they resisted with all their might.

l_Love_Black_Stockings looked at Ji Chen, who had become merciless like a deity, and the water giant behind him, swallowing hard.

After taking a deep breath, she spoke with determination.

“If I have deceived you even a bit just now, 1 am willing to bear ail the consequences!”

Silence followed.

After a moment, she suddenly felt the pressure on her shoulder loosen.

The water giant dissolved, transforming back into water that splashed into the sea. However, a sudden water barrier materialized, preventing the water from reaching them.

“Very well, tell me everything you know about these players—their levels, military units, territory locations, and anything else, without missing a single detail.”

“Yes!” l_Love_Black_Stockings breathed a sigh of relief, then pointed to the Lord’s Manor on the high ground. “It’s not convenient to talk here. Please come to the Lord’s Manor for a detailed discussion.”

Ji Chen nodded and walked towards the mansion with Alice, Anina, and Benbo, leaving the rest of the troops behind, on standby.

l_Love_Black_Stockings’ territory was at the Village level, but the Lord’s Manor was not a thatched hut; it was a two-story wooden house.

Although not large, the interior and exterior were warmly decorated, resembling a home and showing a woman’s attentiveness.

Sitting in the chairs inside the house, I_Love_Black_Stockings poured a gla.s.s of water for Ji Chen before starting her introduction.

“There are four players near my territory, and their strengths are relatively close. Their military units range from Tier 1, 5 stars to Tier 2, 6 stars, with a total quant.i.ty of around 300 to 350.”

“What can a Tier 1, 5-star military unit do?” Ji Chen asked, puzzled.

l_Love_Black_Stockings chuckled twice, saying, “Well, they can still be used as cannon fodder to consume the enemy’s mana and stamina.”

She had seen the troops Ji Chen brought with him, most of which were Tier 3. The Murlocs, in particular, were even Tier 4 units.

With so many powerful units, Ji Chen naturally didn’t think much of these lower-tier ones.

In fact, at this stage, the mainstream forces of players mainly consisted of Tier 2 units, but due to the limited recruitment capacity of the recruitment camp, they had to recruit some Tier 1 lower-tier units to serve as cannon fodder and suicide squads.

“Continue,” Ji Chen urged.

“Alright… Among them, three players have a white common-Tier hero each, belonging to the amphibious ocean cla.s.s, which can be quite effective in water. My Blue Excellent-Tier hero is a human and unable to kill them in water. And one of the players has a green elite-Tier hero. These four players’ territories are located in different positions, with a certain distance from here. But once one of them comes under attack, the other three will come to support or launch a surprise attack on my territory. So, if we want to completely eliminate them, we need to take out two of them before they can react. Then, even without your intervention, I can handle the remaining two,” l_Love_Black_Stockings explained.

“No need for that, let’s settle it all at once,” Ji Chen casually waved his hand.

“All at once?” l_Love_Black_Stockings hesitated, “Wouldn’t that be too direct?”

Ignoring her concerns, Ji Chen turned to Alice, Anina, and Benbo.

“Alice, Anina, Benbo, each of you lead a group of troops to attack a territory and completely destroy it. Don’t let anyone escape.”

“Yes, as you wish. Should we leave no ordinary residents alive as well?” Alice asked.

“If they don’t resist, you can spare them. But if they put up a fight, deal with them on the spot.”

“I understand.”

However, it was Anina who spoke up, her slightly chubby face showing some dissatisfaction. “I can handle all of them alone. Why do I need troops to accompany me?”

“Although your strength can easily deal with them, if they scatter and flee, you won’t be able to catch them. So, let these troops a.s.sist you in surrounding them,” Ji Chen explained.

After thinking for a moment, Anina seemed to understand the reasoning and reluctantly nodded.

Handle them alone?

l_Love_Black_Stockings looked at the girl, whose height only reached her shoulders but carried a sword taller than herself, with surprise.

That sword looked intimidating, but she didn’t seem to possess a formidable combat power.

Could she also be a hero?

“Lord, who is this…” l_Love_Black_Stockings began to ask.

“Anina is also a hero and fully capable of handling this mission,” Ji Chen replied without explaining further.

l_Love_Black_Stockings nodded, muttering to herself about Anina being a green elite-Tier or blue excellent-Tier hero.

She secretly glanced at Anina’s character panel.

[Anina (Hero)]

[Race]: Deep Sea Dragon Whale

[Level]: 20

[Current Tier]: Purple (Rare Tier)

[Potential]: ?

[Skills]: ?

???

That long-finned silver-haired girl being a Purple Rare-Tier hero was already surprising enough.

But why is this little girl also a Purple Rare-Tier hero?

And what kind of race is a Deep Sea Dragon Whale?

A combination of a dragon and a whale, it must be an extraordinary race, right?

With these thoughts in mind, she quietly glanced at the silver-haired girl’s character panel.

[Alice (Hero)]

[Race]: Siren

[Level]: 15

[Current Tier]: Purple (Rare Tier)

[Potential]: ?

[Skills]: ?

l_Love_Black_Stockings’ heart skipped a beat.

Siren.

No one who fought in the ocean would be unfamiliar with this race.

Their population is even scarcer than artifacts.

Countless legends tell of the horrors a.s.sociated with this race.

At this moment, she finally felt completely relieved.

With such powerful heroes, let alone those four players, they could wipe out the entire island.

At this moment, a sense of relief surged within I_Love_Black_Stockings.

She was grateful that the Big Boss Islander was just a pa.s.serby and would leave after the task was completed.

Otherwise…

She shook off the chaotic thoughts in her mind and gained a surge of confidence.

This plan was solid!

After considering it, l_Love_Black_Stockings directly took out the “key” and decisively handed it over with both hands.

“Boss, I’m giving you this ‘key’ right now.”

Ji Chen looked at the “key” in her hands, raising an eyebrow.

He casually took it and examined it closely.

Bearing the name of a key yet devoid of its traditional form, it resembles a metallic implement reminiscent of a Lu Ban lock.

Forged from an enigmatic metal, its incredible hardness is matched only by the ethereal glimmer that emanates from its silver texture, creating an aura of peculiarity and extraordinary craftsmans.h.i.+p.

Could this be the key to unlock the secrets of the ancient ruins?
