Landfall! Landfall!

As mentioned earlier, Ringwater Continent is the dividing line between the Tianpiao Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and it is a series of islands.

But that's not entirely accurate.

The reason why Ringwater Continent is called an "island" rather than an "archipelagic" is that the main large islands of Huanshui Island are all connected to the seabed, which is significantly higher than the surrounding area.

It is indeed a continent, but more than half of its land sank below sea level a century ago.

If you look closely at the seabed Ringwater Continent, you can still see traces of war that even seawater erosion cannot erase.

Moonlight streamed down, gently caressing the scars left by the Sea Race's last invasion through the shallow waters.

The next moment, the soft light was obscured by the enormous creature that had sunk into the sea.

Then, more and more shadows appeared above the seabed.

The latest mechanical creation to appear in the sea gently unfolded its front end.

Seawater did not flow back into the giant object's gaping maw; instead, Psychic Energy rapidly gathered at the protruding cannon muzzle.

"Boom--!"

First came a blinding light in the darkness, followed by a deafening sound.

"Target: Tianpiao Ocean Temporary Command Center of the Sea Race, hit."

Inside the underwater ship, a calm and steady report came from an ordinary soldier.

He spoke rapidly but clearly, and his hands never paused while he was giving his report.

"Activate the underwater detectors and proceed at full speed."

"Yes."

The cannons of the steel behemoth retracted and began charging.

The bow of the ship returned to its original state, while on both sides of the submarine, peculiar Psychic Energy fluctuations began to spread, constantly probing the underwater situation.

The submarine was extremely fast, and it quickly overtook the allied fleet located above.

They need to locate the Sea Race' encampments nearby as their army heads towards the Profound Grand Canyon.

Meanwhile, the Ringwater Continent the departing ships was brightly lit.

On the islands surrounding the Ringwater Continent where settlements exist, broadcasts are relaying evacuation notices.

"Repeated. Ringwater Continent has been designated a forward base immediately. All residents are requested to evacuate via the nearest coalition vessel."

"Repeat. From this moment on the Ringwater Continent will be..."

The outdated equipment gave the broadcast a hoarse, hissing electrical sound.

The residents, unwilling to abandon their homes, cried out in anguish, their cries mingling with the broadcast.

However, this place is about to become a battlefield; staying means certain death.

Therefore, no matter how resentful or saddened they were, the ordinary people, powerless to resist, still boarded the ship bound for Mao City.

What awaits them is a new home that needs rebuilding, a home that has just been flooded.

The actions of the two races naturally did not escape the surveillance of the Sea Race's spies.

The news of the recapture of Mao City and the departure of the Allied forces at sea were sent out one after the other.

The Third Prince Yuanli was closer to the front lines, received the news before Chong Ming.

He directly intercepted the military report about the fall of Mao City, and only relayed the news of the joint forces of the two tribes to the rear.

Mao City was a crucial factor in his bid for the Crown Prince position.

As the youngest of the three sons, he entered officialdom too late and failed to gain the support of powerful forces.

Although this created a Third Prince Faction who was completely obedient to him, it also made him relatively weak compared to his two elder brothers.

Therefore, he needs real achievements to rightfully take over that position.

Thinking of this, a frenzied killing intent ignited in Yuanli's eyes, and he waved his hand to give the order.

"The entire army will land and simultaneously attack Mao City and Ringwater Continent."

"But... but, Your Highness," an advisor was pushed forward, his voice trembling as he offered his advice.

"Our largest garrison has lost contact. With the sea monsters now numbering in the hundreds, we're facing a two-front war, and I'm afraid..."

"So I'm keeping you guys around so you can slack off in the rear, just using sheer numbers to achieve a Pyrrhic victory, right?"

The staff officer was instantly locked onto by the scarlet vertical pupils, his legs went weak, and he knelt down with a thud.

Before he could even open his mouth to defend himself, Yuanli, as always, raised his signature warm smile that was known to outsiders.

"Drag him away and chop him up."

"No... no, Your Highness, I..."

"It's so noisy."

The soldier who came in and dragged the staff officer away quickly covered his mouth and left amidst everyone's fearful gazes.

Yuanli's gaze swept over the other staff officers. "Next, let's discuss your battle plans."

"Before dawn, we saw their fleet urgently return to defense, and the ruins of Mao City were back in the water."

"Hmm, the fleet is setting sail? That makes it hard to say where the battlefield will be."

When Shisui arrived near the Ringwater Continent, he only caught a glimpse of the Allied fleet in the distance.

If they were to encounter the Sea Race in any sea area and war broke out, Shisui would absolutely not have time to collect the spilled Psychic Energy.

That would be such a loss!

"No, we have to bring them back to the Ringwater Continent."

Shisui leaped out of the water, his Ukaku shaking off the seawater, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.

He quickly ascended to a high altitude, his cold, Kakugan fixed on the harbor several miles away, where a large number of civilians and soldiers had gathered.

The Sea Race probably also don't want the allied forces to head towards their main camp.

Since I've already helped you attack Ringwater Continent, then you can take the blame.

A large number of Radiant Feathers gathered power beneath the sea surface, their Psychic Energy being completely transformed into violent Spatial Energy.

Then they aimed at the nearby docks and fired a volley of bullets!

"Bang!"

The harbor near the sea was instantly blasted apart, and then the air began to distort, with a chaotic spatial storm sweeping in.

Creatures, ships, and buildings were all shredded and mixed together before crashing into the sea.

The stench of blood instantly filled the coastline.

Then, "Roar--!"

From the depths of the ocean came the deafening roar of a horde of sea monsters.

Driven by the scent of blood, the sea creatures that had come to attack rushed toward their terrified prey.

The Spatial Turbulence was dispersed by the frenzied sea beasts' blood and flesh, but Shisui showed no dissatisfaction.

Because more flesh and Psychic Energy emerged.

"Get ashore! Get ashore!"

Behind the charging sea beasts, organized Sea Race legions stepped onto the Ringwater Continent.

They rushed into densely populated areas and began a massacre, occasionally letting some seemingly wealthy Human Race escape.

The commotion here was so great that military reports of the attack on the Ringwater Continent were immediately transmitted to the Allied command.

Also presented was the counterattack of the Sea Race from the Mao City area.

"Send the First Legion back to defend!"

"General, you mustn't! The enemy attacked Huanshui and Mao City precisely because they feared a fleet attack on Chongming City."

"Yes, rather than retreating, we should continue our attack on Chongming City according to the original plan..."

"Idiot!" the general sitting at the head of the table cursed.

"Just reaching the Profound Grand Canyon is enough for them to conquer the surrounding waters!"

"Without supplies, a base of operations, and follow-up troop support, can you conquer Chongming?"

"Return to defense immediately! Encircle this Sea Race army from the rear!"

The general, his face grim, gritted his teeth and said, "Since you're here, leave them all here!"
