Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Currently, the Crown of the Ocean Prosperity Level had reached 17,000, and its ranking had risen from 900 to 32nd place. The Level 5 Towns ranked ahead of him all had relatively high Prosperity Levels.

However, what surprised him was…

At this moment, the first place on the leader board was already a level 2 city. It was a whole level higher than him and a small level higher than the second place.

It seemed that the lord of this territory had spent a lot of effort on upgrading the territory.

Shaking his head, Ji Chen wasn’t in the mood to fight for the rankings.

He only sighed slightly and did not care anymore.

However, he did not know that his upgrade had attracted the attention of many players.

“Did you see that? A person named Ji Chen on the territory ranking suddenly rose to 32nd place!”

“It’s only a Level 1 town, but its Prosperity Level is 17,000? What kind of joke is this? 1 feel like my Level 2 Town is fake…”

“Doesn’t this mean that others have obtained more prosperity in other aspects…”

“I don’t think so. He probably used some kind of trick to forcefully obtain it. Is there a need for this?”

“Don’t be sour. I can smell the sourness coming from you through the screen.”

“I think he can’t compare to the ‘Lonely Islander.’ Who agrees, and who disagrees?”

“I agree. The ‘Lonely Islander’ has a purple-grade hero and a powerful army. Plus, they’ve obtained so many crystals. He must be well-known in the rankings! I just wonder what their real name is…”

At some point, the title of the ‘Lonely Islander’ had spread among the player community along the coast of the Western Central Ocean and various islands. They had gained quite a reputation.

Most of these players had experienced the Blood Sea Mystic Realm firsthand and knew that breaking through the Holy City was made possible with the help of the ‘Lonely Islander.’ This made a deep impression on them.

However, other players couldn’t understand why there was such excessive praise for the ‘Lonely Islander’ and started to argue, sparking a heated debate.

The conversation gradually shifted from Jichen’s prosperity to the ‘Lonely Islander.’

Little did they know that these two individuals were the same person.

Ji Chen naturally had no idea about the discussions happening in the chat channels, and even if he did, he would simply brush it off with a smile.

“Who is the ‘Lonely Islander’? What does it have to do with me, Ji Chen?”

At the moment, Jichen was busy selecting a suitable location for a Large Water Fort.

A Large Water Fort had certain requirements for its placement. The water needed to be deep enough for ships to enter without running aground, and it was best to have a sheltered harbor.

After upgrading to a Level 1 Town, the area of Crown of the Ocean had expanded to 600×600 meters, approximately 3.6 square kilometers. It seemed quite large, but compared to the main island, which spanned over hundreds of square kilometers, it was relatively small.

From an aerial view, one could see that the Crown of the Ocean occupied a small square area in the southeast of the main island.

To the north was the jungle, to the south was the ocean, to the west was the rainforest, and to the east was the tidal flat.

Ji Chen was currently searching for a suitable location for the water fortress near the eastern tidal flat.

Although Crown of the Ocean was very close to the beach in the south, the water there was flat sand and shallow corals. The water depth was only three to four meters. It was fine to park small boats, but it was impossible to park large ships.

After some inspection, he found that the beach from the southeast to the east of the main island was a good location. It was only a few meters into the water, but the water depth was already more than ten meters.

As long as there was a suitable dock, not to mention two-masted merchant ships or three-masted warships, even the New Moon could dock there!

In addition, the terrain of the main island, with its tall cliffs protruding in the southeast corner and the rocky walls extending north-eastward from the north, formed a natural sheltered harbor in the curved area spanning several kilometers.

Moreover, the tidal flat was not only spacious but also flat, making it convenient for construction.

With these three conditions combined, it became a valuable and excellent harbor.

After finalizing the specific construction site, Ji Chen returned to his territory and handed over the blueprint for the Large Water Fort to his subordinates, instructing them to start construction as soon as there were enough resources, especially wood.

Just as he finished dealing with this matter and was about to take a break, a warning came from the alert lighthouse.

A ship appeared on the sea surface, about ten nautical miles southwest of the lighthouse, slowly heading towards the New Moon Islands.

Jichen was momentarily surprised, then suddenly realized.

Raymond had arrived!

Onboard White Sands Princess, Willow looked at the calm sea around him, feeling a sense of disbelief.

It was as if the towering waves and thunderstorms from two hours ago had been nothing but a dream.

But when he looked at the chaotic mess on the deck, he realized that it wasn’t a dream.

A week ago, he had been ordered by his master to embark on Princess White Sands and set sail for the Stormy Seas.

At first, when they entered the outer periphery of the stormy seas and saw the towering waves, he had deeply doubted the truthfulness of Raymond’s words. He wondered if Raymond was deceiving them.

But what he didn’t expect was that after gritting their teeth and forcefully traversing the outer periphery of the sea, the surrounding sea conditions suddenly stabilized.

It was as if a switch had been flipped.

The sky instantly cleared, and there was not even a ripple on the sea surface. Whales and schools of fish leaped above the water, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

“Raymond’s words turned out to be true…” Willow murmured to himself. “Does that mean there really is an archipelago here?”

At that moment, his expression became instantly excited..
