The Second Prince Arrives

Thick fog enveloped the entire Iceland.

None of the researchers realized that they had lost contact with the outside world, or even with their own colleagues.

Under the influence of the toxins, they became immersed in the hallucinations created by their own brains, conducting experiments without a care in the world.

As for Shisui, it hovered above the sea lake and began to digest the enormous energy brought by the Heaven Realm flesh and blood.

The biological cocoon formed instantly, and the outer Kagune did not revert to Rc Cells, but instead coiled around the central body.

The Psychic Energy Suppressor was removed, and the fluctuations of the Earth Realm Fifth Realm instantly spread out, only to be quickly contained again.

He still has some time before the Second Prince arrives, during which he can advance two more realms.

The remaining energy was used to control all the researchers at the base.

As for its use in preserving researchers' Psychic Energy...

He received a message from [Survival in Desperate Situations], and the Second Prince's guard also included a Heaven Realm.

Furthermore, the other party does not need to use their own Psychic Energy to support the ice wall, unlike the base leader.

Therefore, although he was only at the Heaven Realm Second Realm — First Realm lower than the person in charge—his Psychic Energy reserves were several times greater than the person in charge's.

The amount and quality of the Flesh Crystals he condensed were more than enough to support all the Alternate Space he created.

Without further thought, Zi Sui closed his Shisui inside the cocoon, and began to circulate the Psychic Energy within his body, digesting the Psychic Energy that had accumulated there.

Meanwhile, Chongming City.

At this moment, the Second Prince Yuan Yuan had already left the capital Chongming City, and traveled to the Arctic Ocean to rebuild his physical body.

The Third Prince Yuanli the forefront commanding the war, and had no time to attend to trivial matters outside the court in the city.

This gave the eldest prince Yuan Rong, an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Shortly after the morning court session, rumors began to circulate about the Second Prince's battlefield defeat and the Third Prince's missed opportunity at Mao City.

Immediately afterwards, official announcements followed.

It contains a collection of various policies issued by the royal family in previous years to benefit the people, as well as a list of frontline battle results.

The most eye-catching part is the military achievements of the Second Prince and the Third Prince.

However, when this propaganda is viewed in conjunction with the rumors circulating in the public, it becomes increasingly ironic.

Then, the news spread like wildfire, and the reputation of the eldest prince, who had not appeared on screen, actually improved.

As a result, public attention to the struggle for the Crown Prince position has skyrocketed.

"Is Yuan Rong trying to save his life by using his so-called public support?"

Lu Qianyu finally had some free time. Looking at Chongming City, which was being stirred up by all sorts of rumors, she glanced at Yan Fei, who was still busy beside her.

"Does he really think that the decisions made by those in power can be swayed by these ordinary people?"

If that's the case, then that's hilarious.

"He not only wanted to win over the common people, but also the opportunists in the court."

Yan Fei replied while reviewing the next ambiguous rumor to be circulated.

"It doesn't really matter how many people we win over."

The unified Sea Race of today were established through the efforts of the recent Dragon Kings; the ants below cannot influence the Dragon Kings ' will.

It's one thing for powerful families and some high-ranking officials to still be indulging in the illusion of "dynasties come and go, but powerful families remain unchanged."

You, a prince, dare to try to exert pressure on the royal family through high-ranking officials and nobles.

You deserved to be carried to the trial grounds as a sacrifice.

Despite having these thoughts in mind, Yan Fei did not stop her plan to help the eldest prince win over the hearts of the people.

The more popular the eldest prince is now, the more intense the turmoil will be when he dies.

He mixed a lot of his own opinions into these rumors.

If this could trigger an anti-war movement within the Sea Race, it would be enough to hinder the Sea Race legions at the front lines.

Meanwhile, on the southern shore of the Moonfall Continent, at the battlefield of Mao City.

Several days ago, the regular legion of the Sea Race had already arrived.

The Sea Race legion, which had previously withdrawn due to insufficient troops, has returned and clashed once again with the second allied forces of the two tribes stationed in Mao City.

The sounds of even more intense artillery fire rose and fell, day and night.

However, neither side planned to deploy too many high-end combat forces, nor did they activate their top-tier lethal weapons.

Besides the increasingly fierce battle below, many other Earth Realm have also mobilized, yet not a single powerful figure from the Heaven Realm has made a move.

Both sides seemed to be wary of something, and the battle reached a stalemate.

This delay has dragged on until now.

"Third Prince, urgent report from the rear!"

A liaison officer quickly stepped forward and, taking advantage of a break in the command, presented the communication device connected to the Ringwater Continent.

"Your Highness, I have received intelligence from Chongming City that public opinion among the lower classes has recently become somewhat unfavorable to you."

Jiang Ning's voice came through the communicator.

Yuanli held the communicator in one hand, while casually moving the pieces representing his own army on the sand map with the other.

As he moved, one of the messengers standing nearby stepped forward and immediately left the command room to relay the military order.

After doing all this, Yuanli finally spoke leisurely.

"It's nothing, just a clown's last struggle before death."

"Just let the White Owl left in Chongming City record the 'big shot' who chose the wrong side."

After he finished speaking, Jiang Ning asked, "Do you still need that guy?"

Why not use it?

Yuanli's smile was warm and gentle, but his eyes revealed undisguised malice.

"How can I catch them all in one fell swoop if he doesn't provoke all the undercover agents first?"

Moreover, it's time to give that old man at home, who hasn't moved an inch in decades, an excuse to unleash a massacre.

He didn't want to have to deal with undercover agents, traitors, and incompetent people after he came to power.

They discussed some less confidential political matters Ringwater Continent, then ended the communication.

After that, the stalemate in the war on the Moonfall Continent will continue until the Crown Prince is determined.

Two days later, on the outskirts of the Arctic Ocean.

A fleet of ships, not many in number but all equipped with lethal weapons, finally arrived in the Arctic Ocean.

Although there were no obvious flags, the clearly extraordinary weapons were enough to demonstrate the fleet's exceptional nature.

Upon closer inspection, dark dragon patterns can be faintly seen on the hull of the main ship in the center of the fleet, which is protected by layers of armor.

Those were clearly ships belonging to members of the royal family.

And that was indeed the case; the Second Prince, in his spirit form, was currently in the command center of the main ship.

Yuan Yuan opened his eyes inside the container and sighed.

"We've finally arrived."

Inside the ice cave, Psychic Energy had already invaded the Shisui within the ice walls, sensed the approaching ship, and a bloodthirsty crimson flashed in his eyes.
