"You're here so quickly! That's wonderful!"

Everyone was overjoyed. With reinforcements arriving, they now had an army of 400,000, giving them much more confidence than before.

With the combined power of the Great West Empire and the Frostwest Empire, they would surely be able to sweep across the Great Liang Great Liang, seize its terrifying wealth, and embark on a life of riches.

James Quinton couldn't help but pump his fist, exclaiming excitedly, "This is fantastic! Now that reinforcements have arrived, let's take over Great Liang! Or how about we sail straight there and attack Great Liang -on?"

He had been listening to tales of the prosperity of Great Liang for days, and had long coveted it. Now that the opportunity had arrived, he was naturally eager to seize it.

Even the opponent's excrement is golden. If I could obtain even one-tenth or one-hundredth of it, it would be enough to expand my family's power, buy a territory, and reach the pinnacle of life.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he was willing to be a vanguard.

"Hey, hold on, buddy!"

"Going by sea would be quite risky. Those who went to scout ahead have all disappeared; clearly, this ocean isn't easy to cross. It's better if we go by land!"

"With the Great West Empire and the Frostwest Empire as our vanguard, we only need to help them share some of the pressure. Anyway, the wealth isn't going anywhere; even if it falls into Abaddon's hands, it will be ours sooner or later."

Seeing his brother's urgency, Abide Leier knew what he was thinking, so he whispered words of advice.

Hearing his words, James nodded slightly, accepting his statement. The two then headed outside to meet the reinforcements.

When the two arrived at the beach, they indeed saw a dense array of warships heading their way, and they couldn't help but cheer.

"Haha, they actually came! This is the best news of the day!" Abide Leier exclaimed excitedly.

We've been idle long enough; it's time to get moving. This continent will become our family's private property—that would be perfect!

James was also thrilled, exclaiming, "The person who's come looks like your uncle Abide William. He's an extremely ruthless man. It seems the council is going to unleash a massacre this time!"

"Um!"

Abide Leier nodded and laughed, "Whenever we conquer a continent, we naturally have to start with a massacre to terrify the local natives, so that it will be easier for us to rule them."

With my uncle coming, we can go on a killing spree this time, letting everyone on this continent know how powerful we are, and making them willingly become our lackeys!

Over the years, the law of the jungle has long been his life motto, so naturally he has no sympathy to speak of. In his eyes, foreign natives are not even human beings.

The two men gazed at the densely packed warships, their eyes filled with anticipation, both fantasizing about wreaking havoc on Great Liang and plundering its wealth.

With so much wealth in Great Liang, we should prepare more mules and horses to transport it.

But just then, a deep horn sounded in the distance, echoing across the vast sea. The sound, initially low and indistinct, gradually became clearer.

What's going on?

Abide Leier's expression changed; the sound was definitely not from his own fleet, but more like some kind of signal.

He looked into the distance and immediately noticed something was wrong. A dark mass seemed to be approaching them from afar, like a tide heading straight for his fleet.

As they drew closer, his pupils constricted; they were clearly massive warships heading in his direction.

These warships were not only enormous, but also towering multi-story ships, several times larger than their own warships, and their sails could be vaguely seen.

His face instantly turned grim, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "This is terrible! It seems someone is attacking my uncle. Who dares to be so bold?"

Boom!

As if to confirm his statement, a burst of fire suddenly appeared in the distance, followed by an explosion on the sea, and the next moment, one of the Abide Family's warships was instantly torn apart.

Ahhh!

The soldiers on the warship were all in disbelief, and they began to struggle frantically, trying to move to the warship next to them.

The ships on the surrounding vessels were completely bewildered. They couldn't believe it—the enemy had attacked from such a distance and sunk their warship. What on earth was that thing?

On the lead ship, Abide William's face darkened, and he roared, "What? Someone actually dares to attack my Abide Family's fleet? They're courting death!"

Men, charge forward and slaughter them all!

We've dominated this sea area for years, always the ones fighting back, but now they're being attacked on our own. This is simply intolerable.

He was the ruler of the sea, yet they treated him like an easy target. Well then, he would die in the ocean.

"Kill!"

The order for a bloody massacre was given by Abide William, and the warships immediately began frantically signaling with flags. The warships that were originally preparing to dock instantly turned around and charged towards the enemy.

Abide Leier, standing some distance away, frowned slightly but didn't say much. After all, it was his uncle who had intervened, and the old man knew what he was doing.

However, James's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh no, it's that flag! It's those pirates!!"

His eyesight was excellent, and he was famously farsighted. Although he couldn't see the specifics of the situation, he would never forget the other side's flashy flag!

"Pirate?"

Abide Leier's expression changed slightly, and a bad thought immediately flashed through his mind: Could this be the pirate who plundered his spoils last time?

His heart skipped a beat, and he whispered, " James, take a closer look, isn't that one of those flashy flags?"

If it really is the other side, then that's troublesome. Their naval combat capabilities are no worse than ours, and may even be stronger and more agile.

Now they're even taking the initiative to attack; they wouldn't be so reckless if they weren't confident.

James shook his head, gritting his teeth, and said, "I'm absolutely certain. Their flag is flashy, with a Black Skull on it. It's definitely the same group from last time, and they have more of them!"

call!

Upon hearing this, Abide Leier's expression changed drastically, and she nearly collapsed to the ground, muttering, "This is a huge problem. They're probably after us!"

He wasn't stupid; the fact that the other party attacked him just before his uncle reached the shore was clearly a premeditated act.

Once you reach nearshore waters, a quick evacuation becomes difficult.

At this moment, his uncle was caught in a dilemma, forced to fight back against all odds, which put him at a disadvantage.

Now we can only hope that there aren't many enemies, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
