After a brief moment of excitement at the upgrade, Anina looked at the corpses and filth everywhere, and her face was filled with sadness.

"Alas, after so many deaths, it seems that it won't be long before more sea heirs will attack, and big trouble is coming."

Ji Chen asked with some curiosity: "In that case, then how did you avoid Hai Hei before?" ”

"Of course it's a fight and a run, Hai Si is getting stronger and stronger every time, and the number is more and more every time, who can withstand it, so as long as you don't get chased by them, nothing happens." Anina's expression was a matter of course.

His face darkened suddenly.

People can run, but territory can't.

In the face of such an enemy, which will only get stronger and stronger, a better way is to take the initiative and completely eliminate the head of this sea heir group.

As a hive-thinking creature, an individual ordinary sea heir is meaningless, one is all, all is one.

As long as the head of the sea heir is killed, the rest of the sea heirs will be like rootless pings, and they will die.

But it's a pity.

At present, they have not yet known the habitat of this group of sea heirs, nor the location of their leader, and there is no direction to go if they want to take the initiative to attack.

This gave Ji Chen a little headache.

During this time, it is necessary to step up the plundering of resources, and continue to light up the class technology tree.

The current main troops, except for the dragonblood fishmen, are all lower than the level of the sea heir, if it weren't for Alice's strength this time, I'm afraid there would be a large number of casualties in the moment of contact.

This made Ji Chen ring the alarm in his heart.

During this time, he seemed to rely too much on Alice, and neglected the training of the troops.

No matter how powerful Alice is, there is only one, even if she advances to the red inheritance level, she will only control thousands of ordinary troops at most, and if it is a high-level class, it will be reduced.

What if there were tens of thousands of enemies in the future?

Thinking that there might be a four-digit or even five-digit sea heir in the future, Ji Chen suddenly felt a burst of pressure, and couldn't help but complain secretly.

How could he have already gotten into trouble with a strange race like the Sea Heir when other players were still fighting on a small scale and dealing with wild troops.

With a sigh in his heart, he waved his hand for the army to collect the corpses and liquids of the sea heirs on the beach and the sea, and then set a fire to clean them.

Watching the mountain of corpses burn into a volcano, the stench permeated.

Ji Chen beckoned to the others and set out on the way back.

Along the way, he was still thinking about how to properly deal with the attack of Haiji in the future.

It wasn't until I returned to the territory that I came back to my senses.

"My lord, have you dealt with those sea heirs?"

"It's been killed, but the situation is not optimistic, and now there are sea heirs who can fly."

"A sea heir who can fly? Wouldn't that territory be easily discovered by them? ”

"There is no other way to speed up the construction of the current buildings." Ji Chen shook his head, "In addition, I will also look for some blueprints of buildings that can defend against the air in order to defend against their air army." ”

"Well, that's all it can be."

Willus sighed, ready to lead the inhabitants of the Ocean Crown into battle against the Sea Heir.

The crown of the ocean is already their home, even if they die, they must defend this place!

Willus took his leave and left in a hurry, and began to speed up the construction of various buildings, urging kobolds and captives to gather resources.

The territory under Ji Chen's proper protection, under the pressure of long-lost survival, everyone was busy.

Raymond, who had just come out of the house, was stunned when he saw the people around him, looking like he was about to come and go.

Walked over briskly and asked.

"My lord, has something happened?"

"Nothing... Are you ready to go? ”

Raymond was stunned, knowing that something was going on, so he immediately responded.

"I'm ready to go."

Ji Chen nodded, the threat of the sea heir in front of him had begun to approach, and he was also going to start speeding up everything and preparing for the battle with all his might.

"Okay, you can set off early tomorrow morning, and sell the special products as soon as possible in exchange for resources and return."

Small boats carried specialty products between the merchant ships and the main island, loading the precious jungle wood and iron boxes containing golden sea bass into the cargo hold.

The specialty coffee beans have been dried, packed into a vessel that can extend the shelf life, and shipped to the ship.

These specialties will become the first batch of goods exported by Ocean Crown, and they are also the first step to make a name for themselves!

One day, the name of the crown of the sea will be resounding all over the world.

The next day at noon.

A group of people stood on the beach and said goodbye to their companions who were about to sail away.

"My lord, I will return in more than twenty days in the morning and a month later, and I will bring you what you want at that time."

Raymond held up his big belly like a ball and patted his chest with confidence.

"I have faith in you, let's go." Ji Chen didn't say much, and waved his hand.

Seeing this, Raymond did not stop any longer, turned around and waved the last group of personnel to board the small boat, and slowly sailed towards the ocean fleet of four ships in the distance.

Halfway through, he stood up and waved goodbye to Ji Chen.

It wasn't until he drove farther and farther and couldn't see the figure clearly that he sat down.

The ocean-going fleet set sail and headed out beyond the stormy sea, gradually disappearing above sea level.

Four ships carrying 200 elite pirates, 150 fish-man swimmers, a few slaves in a supporting role, and five giant squids that had been recruited just yesterday beneath the surface.

In addition, Sparlo also goes with the ship's heroes and plays a monitoring role.

In addition to selling the two ships of specialties on this trip, Sparrow would also take the opportunity to plunder other merchant ships to subsidize the "family".

It is believed that this configuration should allow the fleet to reach its destination smoothly and bring back the resources safely.

After sending Raymond away, Ji Chen had other plans next.

He plans to go to sea again in the next two days.

The target is the lair of the Black Skull Pirate Map.

After the last battle outside the Gate, the Black Skull Pirates suffered heavy losses and fled back to their lair overnight to lick their wounds, and were in their weakest period.

The Bauhinia Alliance, as well as many business alliances, want to take this opportunity to wipe out this pirate that has caused them a lot of trouble, once and for all.

But the Black Skull Pirates were able to roam the middle of the West, and in addition to the firepower and powerful warships, they also had enough hidden nests to allow them to escape the pursuit.

And it just so happened that these elite pirates recovered by Ji Chen knew the location of their lair.

As their lord, they naturally knew everything about this, and told them all about the location of the specific sea area.

Although the Black Skull Pirate Regiment had suffered heavy losses before, there were still several intact pirate ships left, and it was not for nothing to go there.

Just after the departure of the ocean-going fleet, the ships that remained in the Crescent Islands, including the Crescent and a three-masted warship, appeared rather empty.

This time, I happened to grab those pirate ships.

Hey, why did I say another word?

But this is not important, the important thing is that in the past, the Black Skull Pirate Regiment had a large number of warships, and he was quite jealous, but now they have suffered heavy losses, and only a few are left.

The so-called beating of the water dogs.

Naturally, you can't let go of this fragrant dumpling.

It is even rumored that the Black Skull Pirate Regiment once looted a treasure ship sent to a certain principality in the Northern Continent two months ago, and a batch of precious resources looted from it did not have time to sell, and now they are piled up in the lair.

I heard that it includes a batch of high-level resources such as Mithril and Adamantite Gold.

If this rumor is true, then he will have to go even more.

Anyway, now that so many people are thinking about them, these rare resources will be snatched away by others sooner or later, so it is better to be cheaper than cheaper.

According to the pirates, the Black Skull Pirates' lair is located northwest of the Crescent Islands and northeast of the Silver Islands, in between.

It takes three to four days to get there without any obstacles.

Once back and forth, plus the time required for the attack, it will take about ten days to say the least, which is quite long.

So he planned to take care of all the affairs of the crown of the ocean before setting off.

Ji Chen thought about it and decided to go and see how the seawater rice was growing.

Walk quickly through the roads carved out in the jungle.

Half an hour later.

The jungle vanished, revealing an open lowland.

The green ocean grows on the lowlands, and the salty sea water is brought from the ocean to the lowlands through the canals, and a paddy field that is most suitable for seawater rice is gathered.

The seawater rice is growing well, and the ears are half-hanging down, revealing a dark green color.

The green appearance is very attractive.

Some natives walk through the rice fields, busily tending to the rice, believing that it will not be long before this place will turn into a sea of gold.

At this time, some natives saw Ji Chen, and immediately ran over one by one to salute and ask.

"My lord, why are you here?"

"I'm just here to see how the situation is here, these seawater rice grows well, thank you for your hard work."

"No hard work, no hard work, this is what we should do." The natives hurriedly waved their hands, their faces full of simple smiles.

They were praised by the lord, and when they saw that their work was affirmed, they instantly felt that their bodies were not tired.

"How many acres of seawater rice have been planted now, and how long will it take for it to mature?" Ji Chen patted one of the natives on the shoulder and asked kindly.

The native, who was patted on the shoulder, was suddenly flattered and hurriedly said.

"Report to my lord, there are now more than 500 acres of seawater rice fields, and it will take more than one month to mature.

If you add those extremely nutritious guano as fertilizer, the yield can reach 1400~1600 units."

More than 500 acres... According to the average output of 1500 units per acre, that is a total of... 750,000 units of food!?

Ji Chen, who came up with this answer, was suddenly shocked.

That's 650,000 units of food!

According to the daily consumption of three units of vegetarian food for residents, it is enough for the current 2,000 people to eat the crown of the ocean for 125 days.

If you include the troops, it will be at least 100 days or more.

But seawater rice only takes two months and 60 days to ripen in one wave, and 125 days is almost enough to ripen twice.

In other words, the crown of the ocean has now begun to enter the stage of self-sufficiency.

This conclusion made Ji Chen's heart suddenly happy.

Finally, don't worry about food!

"You continue to expand the planting area of seawater rice, and more people will join in the future, these seawater rice fields are the lifeblood of the territory, and there can be no mistakes!

If there is a good harvest in the future, I will reward you according to the situation, so as not to disappoint my expectations. ”

"Yes!"

Hearing this, the natives shouted earnestly.

Seeing this, Ji Chen nodded with satisfaction and asked them to continue to work.

Then I looked at the clear sky.

It's a nice day, so let's go to the island and around it to sweep the beasts and monsters, it seems like I haven't hunted for a while, and I don't have anything to do today anyway...

Thinking like this, he waved his hand and set off with the army.

Begin to sweep the Crescent Islands of wild monsters and beasts.

These beasts and wild monsters that had been born for a few days with great difficulty began to panic again on this day, and the terrifying Homo erectus was back!

For a whole day, not only the beasts and monsters on the island suffered, but also the marine life near the coastline.

Their screams and wails rang out everywhere.

It wasn't until dusk fell that Ji Chen returned with an army full of prey, piled up in the square.

When the residents saw so much prey, they immediately cheered, and one by one they took the initiative to carry the prey, and dealt with it in full swing.

Even Willus, who was entangled in complicated affairs and worried, couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

With so much food coming in, even the people's hearts have been improved a few points.

When the Chamber of Commerce guards and prisoners who were working with tools saw this scene, their eyes were about to pop out, and they wanted to rush up and gnaw on them.

In the past few days of being captive, they have not even eaten any oil meat, they have eaten all dry food and vegetarian food, and a bird has long faded out of their mouths.

Just when the captives were looking to see through it.

The resident who was supervising them behind him stabbed them with a stick, pouted, and said, "What, you want to eat meat?" If you work a little harder, maybe the merciful lord will be merciful and reward you with a meal of meat. ”

The captive was stabbed, and his heart was furious, but he did not dare to show the slightest anger on his face.

In the past few days, they've tried to get angry — they don't have anything to eat all day, and they have to double the next day.

As for rebellion and escape?

There have already been a few people who have done such a substantial act, and the spikes of those fish-men swimmers have penetrated their bodies, and they are already dead and can no longer die.

The grinding disc of life has already smoothed out their sharp angles.

They look up to the sky and sigh, when will they get out of here!?

On it together
