Chapter 8

Author: Willow Tree
The rest were filled with despair, but when they saw the faint shadow of the giant turtle under the water, they did not dare cause trouble. They silently paddled away.

With more people, demand for fresh water rose sharply.

I took the newly joined carpenters and laborers to open a second ranch on the other side of the giant turtle's nesting cave.

The current there was calmer, perfect for large-scale bubble jellyfish farming.

When the last wooden stake was driven into the seabed, a prompt rang

    It raised its forelimb and aimed at the Cult's largest flagship.Boom.Steel twisted. Wood exploded.The warship split in two from the center and slowly sank.The believers screamed as they fell into the sea, where the venom-sting jellyfish wrapped them in tentacles. Their voices soon died away."Retreat! Retreat!" the priest shrieked hysterically.The remaining two warships desperately turned around, their oars beating wildly against the surface.But it was too late.My swordfish burst out from below, moving almost too fast for the naked eye.Like a streak of silver lightning, it pierced the rudders of both ships in succession.The ships lost direction and spun in place.The sawtooth sharks swarmed in and tore at the bottoms.Ironclad crabs crawled over the sides, chewing through boards and rigging.Within minutes, both ships capsized. The believers fell into the water and were stunned one by one by the sentry eels.The priest clung to a broken plank, drifting miserably

    The Cult's vanguard ship had no time to turn. Its hull was instantly wrapped in dense tentacles.Venom seeped through the vessel. The believers on deck began vomiting and convulsing, collapsing one after another."Fire! Burn them!" the priest roared.The believers hurled burning oil jars into the water.Flames spread across the sea. The venom-sting jellyfish curled under the heat and made piercing hissing sounds.But more jellyfish surged up from the depths, one wave after another.The priest's face turned iron-gray. He waved his staff."Sea beasts, forward! Tear them apart!"A dozen berserk sawtooth sharks and venom-fanged eels charged toward the market. The water below immediately boiled.I closed my eyes and spread my will outward.My sawtooth sharks met them head-on. Three against one, we were outnumbered, but my sharks fought in perfect coordination.Two feinted from the front while the third struck from the side, biting into an enemy beast's gills. Blood dyed the water

    I stood on the reef and looked at him."Try it."He drove the sea beasts toward the market.The three sawtooth sharks opened their bloody mouths and charged in my direction.I released Dragon pressure.Not to suppress the sea beasts.To cut off the Cult's control over them.The three sawtooth sharks froze at the same time.The madness in their eyes disappeared, replaced by confusion.Then they turned and rushed toward the Sea God's Apostle's boat."What?!" The apostle's expression changed drastically.He tried to regain control, but the suppression of Dragon pressure made it impossible for him to interfere.The three sawtooth sharks overturned his boat.The apostle fell into the water and crawled onto the reef in a sorry state.I walked up to him."Go back and tell your High Priest that Shallow Bay doesn't look for trouble, but we don't fear it either."He gnashed his teeth."The High Priest won't let you off!"I had the sentry eels shock him unconscious and throw him

    "You're Finn?""Sit." I pointed at the wooden stool opposite me.She did not sit. She went straight to the point."The Dragon Court hopes Shallow Bay Market will join our trade network and become an official supply point.""Conditions?""The Dragon Court provides weapons and defensive facilities in exchange for twenty percent of the market's tax revenue."I shook my head."We won't join. But I can accept a trade agreement based on mutual noninterference."Cora narrowed her eyes."Do you know the consequences of refusing the Dragon Court?""I do." I looked at her."But Shallow Bay is not a vassal of the Dragon Court. We do business. We don't take sides."Cora was silent for a few seconds."I heard you can command creatures of the sea. Care for a spar?"I knew she was testing me."How do you want to spar?""You don't have to fight personally. Let your sea beast fight me."I nodded and walked to the edge of the reef.Under the water, an elite swordfish was patrolling. It

    It was like planting pasture grass on the seabed.The explosive growth of plankton not only provided abundant feed for the tamed fish, but also attracted large numbers of wild fish from the outer waters.Half a month later, the system's red warning disappeared and turned green.[Ecological balance restored. Nearby wild fish population has increased by 20 percent.]The waters of Shallow Bay became clearer than ever. Fish swam through coral and reefs, full of life.The merchant ships that had complained before discovered that fish from Shallow Bay tasted even better now, and they were willing to pay higher prices.One evening, I sat on a reef with a handful of homemade fish feed, calmly feeding the carp below.An old traveling merchant stopped and looked at me."Lord Hiddleston, with the sea beast power you control now, you could absolutely swallow the surrounding forces and become the tyrant of this entire sea region."He shook his head in confusion."Everyone else is fighting

    Every electronic device failed on the spot and started smoking. The machine gunners were shocked black and screamed as they fell into the sea.Then, a shadow like a small island slowly surfaced beside One-Eye's boat.The cracked-shell giant turtle raised one thick forelimb and brought it down on an empty escort boat nearby.Boom.Steel twisted and groaned.The sheet-metal boat was slapped into two pieces and sank into the sea.The whole process took less than a minute.The Black Flag Gang's armed force collapsed.One-Eye sat limp on the deck. When the turtle's head, larger than his entire body, leaned toward him, he wet himself.The B-class body enhancement he had been so proud of was not even a joke before the strength of a giant beast.I walked down the reef and stopped beside his boat."Who did you say you were going to slaughter?"One-Eye dropped to his knees on the deck and bowed his head wildly, his forehead banging against the metal with dull thuds."Sir! I was wron
