Chapter 232: The Forces Who Changed Their Worldview
Faced with Hei Sui’s threat, Lang Tie felt as if his breath was stuck in his chest.
Having done as he pleased in the Kuilong Ocean for so many years, this was the first time someone dared to scold and rain curses down on his ancestors right in front of him. He simply could not stand for this.
However, he couldn’t pick a fight now as his military strength was weaker than the Sea King’s. Hence, he could only look at the players with an indignant face while his heart burned with rage. He then turned his head and looked at the Sea King.
“Sea King, what is this now? Are you protecting them?”
The players lost their temper again before the Sea King could speak.
“Who do you think you’re threatening, motherfucker? Sea King, don’t be scared! We will help you to destroy him after you’ve established your nation!”
“What the hell do you mean by protecting!? Come on, let’s go outside and have a talk!”
“Useless fool, do you know how hard this was for the Sea King? You have no empathy and you only think about making a fuss. You deserve to die. I can’t stand this anymore. Come, let’s take this outside!”
…
From the players’ viewpoint, the Sea King was like a treasure mine that they had anticipated for a long time. Thus, to go against the Sea King would mean to go against them as well. That was why all of them were enraged and ready to flip the tables to start a fight.
The other forces standing around were contemplating while watching the scene unfold.
They reckoned that the Sea King had made allies with a powerful force and the force was rooting for him. Thus, their appraisal of the Sea King went up to another level.
However, the Sea King was still clueless at this moment.
He was suspecting whether there was anything wrong with his memory. He remembered that they were enemies and he even wiped out some of their clan members before. What is happening now?
Something was off somewhere, especially their gazes. Are they actually giving me a… comforting gaze?
The Sea King went into deep contemplation again.
“Good! Since all of you want to pick a fight, come on!” angered, Lang Tie took his hammer and walked toward the coast.
Of course, the players feared nothing. All of them placed their presents down and followed him to the coast.
They wanted to educate Lang Tie so that he could understand what losing was like.
None of the forces expected the Nation Establishing Ceremony to turn into the current situation.
However, they were more curious as to which force these savage creatures belonged to that they actually have the guts to provoke Langya Island.
Thus, they also followed them to the coast to witness their abilities.
“My king, should we send some soldiers to assist them?” observing the scene, Sha Shui quickly asked the Sea King.
“Assist them? I would rather help Langya Island!” the Sea King said while smashing the table furiously.
Speechless, Sha Shui, Hei Sui, and Tian Kun were all sent into a state of confusion.
As for the lords who were standing at the side, they were also surprised when they heard this. They simply could not understand the current situation.
Is the Sea King this cold-blooded? His friends went all out for him yet he’s thinking of helping the enemies. This is disappointing.
“Follow me, let’s go have a look!” the Sea King decided to check them out after pondering for a while. He rose into the air and the other kings followed behind him.
…
At the same time, near the island’s coast.
Lang Tie and his people reached the coast first. Following his cry, countless sea monsters emerged from the sea and started crawling ashore.
Then, the players arrived.
“Dumb fool, I’ll let you choose to battle on land or sea!” Liu Chai spoke.
As he was scolded again, Lang Tie was on the verge of losing his cool. He took a deep breath.
“This is the Sea King’s territory. We will fight on the sea!”
Then, he waved his hand and immediately, the Langya soldiers behind him rode onto the sea monsters and went to the sea successively.
Langya threw the players a provocative gaze.
However, he was instantly stunned.
The players were boarding fleets of warships and there were a huge number of them.
He initially thought that the warships belonged to all the forces who attended the ceremony. He did not expect that all the warships were from these strangers.
Langya felt a heavy thump in his heart as he could feel that this situation was far from good.
A force with such a huge fleet of warships would definitely not be weak. Furthermore, they were only here to attend the Nation Establishing Ceremony, hence these warships would definitely be only a small portion of their force.
Lang Tie was shocked by his own assumption. However, there was no way to escape. With so many forces spectating, Langya Island’s reputation would be ruined if he didn’t fight. Hence, he could only grit his teeth and go on.
However, he placed his plan to fight on the sea on hold.
He was clear about the power of the Specter Warships. This huge fleet would definitely win a landslide victory if they really started a war on the sea. Hence, he turned his head to give a gaze to his subordinate and the sea monsters crawled ashore again.
The forces behind were also in shock when they saw the players’ fleet of warships.
They were aware that a huge amount of money would have to be spent in order to build a Specter Warship. The players’ pageantry had them in shock.
At that moment, their appraisal toward the Sea King heightened again.
The Sea King arrived at the scene, his eyes full of hatred as he saw the warships.
How could he not be familiar with these warships? It was none other than these degenerates who drove these warships and robbed his jewelry and spiritual materials.
“Wait, there’s a problem with our sea monsters, so we choose to fight on land now!” Lang Tie shouted at the players after getting ashore.
The players showed their middle fingers to Lang Tie in unison upon hearing his words.
“Trash will always remain as trash… you’re intimidated so easily. So damn weak!”
“With your behavior, you don’t even deserve to hold the Sea King’s shoes, moreover provoke us. How brave of you!”
“Shame on you. Where did your guts go?”
“It’s embarrassing to have a battle with you. You are the first boss that we have to go easy on. How shameful!”
…
Lang Tie’s face turned pale upon hearing the players’ sneers.
However, he knew that he would definitely lose if they started a battle on the sea. Thus, he could only grit his teeth and continue.
“Stop talking! Do you dare to fight or not?”
The players laughed at his words.
There wasn’t anything they wouldn’t do in this world. Even if a deity was here and spoke to them in a rude manner, they would still fight him even though they were certain that they would lose.
Thus, the players jumped down from the warships one after another and gathered at the coast.
“Sea King, it should be alright if we mess up this place, right? Please don’t be angry if we do so,” Liu Chai said to the Sea King smilingly right before the commencement of the battle.
However, the Sea King only snorted coldly, as if he was implying his consent.
“Come, come, it’s almost time. Let’s fight! We don’t deserve to be called a disaster if we don’t smash your head today!”
“Kill them!” Lang Tie who was being scolded again made a loud roar and the Langya Army standing behind him instantly charged forward.
“Finish him!” the players also charged forward following Liu Chai’s chant.
The battle started. The surrounding spectators were focused on seeing which side would win.
However, it wasn’t long before they were sent into a state of shock.
The players’ skills were not as strong as they expected.
Although the Langya Army was far low in numbers, their combat skills were way stronger than the players.
“My king, the situation is not going well. We should send some assistance!” when Sha Shui saw what was happening, he quickly spoke to the Sea King.
“The army from Langya Island will lose to them!” the Sea King said coldly while looking at both forces in the battle.
It was familiar with the battling tactics of this force.
These degenerates were not afraid to throw their lives. The Langya Army might have a mental breakdown if they choose to have a protracted battle with them.
Again, Hei Sui and the others were disappointed at the Sea King’s refusal of rendering assistance. They felt that the Sea King was too cold-hearted.
On the coast.
Lang Tie was extremely delighted as their side seemed to have the upper hand.
He had made his mental preparation of losing and returning with nothing. However, to his surprise, these creatures were weak in fighting a land battle. He felt fortunate for having chosen to have the battle on land.
Lang Tie’s confidence was boosted tremendously. He believed these creatures would surrender very soon under the Langya Army’s savage attacks.
However, as time passed and the more Lang Tie fought, the more he felt that something wasn’t right. He realized that these creatures were actually not afraid to sacrifice their lives.
They kept changing their battling strategies. Without any intention to defend, they kept attacking in a way that they just had to slash an enemy before they died.
Also, these creatures’ skills were peculiar, too. They had all types of tactics such as healing, controlling, assassinating, and face-to-face attacking.
The most unbelievable thing was that whenever their comrades were defeated, these creatures wouldn’t even care. Instead they would only continue charging forward like crazed devils.
In this battle, the longer the Langya Army fought, the more exhausted they felt. Nevertheless, these creatures were still energetic.
All the forces at the scene were surprised by their crazy spirit.
They initially thought that this battle was only a trivial dispute caused by personal feelings. They thought that it would be equivalent to a martial arts demonstration and that it was only a mere formality to fight. They expected that one of the parties would surrender eventually. However, this was not the case.
Looking at the players’ battling manner, they quickly concluded that this was not a demonstration of martial arts. They were actually putting their lives on the line to fight.
The more they fought, the more exhausted and timid they felt. At this moment, Lang Tie really wanted to scold, “Do all of you not value your lives!?”
The players were indeed not afraid to sacrifice their lives. For them, death was only a wait of three hours. What they wanted to do most now was to beat Lang Tie up badly until his face was destroyed.
When the battle reached the third hour, Lang Tie realized that the Langya Army was full of terror and their capability to fight had weakened substantially.
Their comrades’ deaths had given them too much mental stimulation.
Lang Tie knew that the battle could not continue anymore.
Currently, the mental states between both sides were on opposite ends. The Langya Army would be slaughtered completely if the battle continued.
Thus, he shouted quickly, “We surrender! Surrender!”
However, how could the players agree to Lang Tie’s surrender?
This was because they realized that the Langya Army provided quite a lot of experience points and soul coins for them. Where else could they get these if they stopped the battle now?
Thus, the players chose to ignore their surrender and continued attacking.
The morale of the Langya Army slumped upon Lang Tie’s surrender. The players started a new wave of attack but the Langya Army could not unleash their fighting capability anymore.
They were having a mental breakdown.
“Stop! We’ve surrendered, so there should no longer be any grudges between us!” when Lang Tie saw what was happening, he shouted again in an attempt to stop the players from attacking.
“I only have to kill three more before I can level up. You’re saying that you want to surrender? Declined, declined!”
“I refuse to accept your surrender. Continue fighting! Fuck, I haven’t obtained enough soul coins!”
“What do you mean by asking us to stop during our happiest moment? I refuse!”
“Fucker, you have no right to stop us. Who the hell do you think you are? Come at me!”
“I’m not listening! I’m not listening!”
…
Refusing to reconcile, the players raised their weapons and charged toward the Langya Army while growling loudly.
The forces who were spectating the scene had cold sweat dripping down their foreheads.
Currently, they have labeled the players as extremely dangerous.
Many of their comrades had died but they were still shouting unmerciful things.
To them, it was not a battle. It was a carnival for a bunch of psychopaths!
Even some forces who were recognized as fighting veterans in the Kuilong Ocean region had the desire to cover their faces after witnessing the players’ craziness.
They paled in comparison with the players. The players should be named the fighting veterans instead. Not only did they not care about their comrades’ lives during the battle, they didn’t care about their own lives as well. They really went all out!
The players’ performances could be said to have completely changed the worldview of the guests at the scene.
