Chapter 140: Wilus, Glorious Excess (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Having successfully evolved into a hero, Wilus was naturally grateful to Ji Chen. He immediately swore absolute loyalty and devotion to him, vowing to give his all for his lord.

After a few encouraging words, Ji Chen let Wilus leave.

Through the partially open door, he noticed that the sky had already darkened.

He stood up and stretched lazily, remarking how quickly the day had passed. It seemed like just a blink of an eye.

Recalling the events of the past few days, a lot had happened. After returning from the sea, he immediately faced an attack from the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce. After defeating them and subduing Raymond, he began exploring the Dragon’s Nest on the mountain peak, only to be startled and quickly retreat…

One thing after another, but undoubtedly, the rewards obtained from these events were plentiful.

Compared to the day he returned from the sea, the Crown of the Ocean had become even more powerful.

All of this… couldn’t have happened without his efforts as a lord!

As he pondered, he couldn’t help but praise himself in a conceited manner.

Seeing that the sun was already setting, he contemplated whether to rest or continue managing the territory.

At that moment, six graceful and beautiful maidservants with large white breasts walked in, each holding delicate plates of food.

Seeing this, Ji Chen immediately dismissed the idea of inspecting the territory. After all, he had worked the whole day, so what’s wrong with taking a break?

However, he realized that he hadn’t instructed these maidservants before.

So he asked them, and the answer he received was:

“Lord Wilus sent us. He said that you were exhausted and hungry after a long day of work, so he asked us to serve you food and assist you with bathing.” Upon hearing this, Ji Chen immediately gave a thumbs up to Wilus in his mind. Great! He truly deserved to be the chief administrative officer. He was indeed a loyal vassal! It seemed that the effect of advancing to a hero was immediate!

Since it was a gesture from his subordinates, he couldn’t refuse. He reluctantly accepted, so as not to be seen as ungrateful.

With this in mind, Ji Chen smirked and waved at the maidservants.

The faces of these charming maidservants blushed with allure, and their eyes were sparkling as if they could drip water. Each of the six maidservants had their own charm—adorable, enchanting, pure, shy, bold, or even longing—as they looked at Ji Chen.

Several of them had arrived here through the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce’s ship and knew the importance of having a lord who could provide them with a stable life.

If they could attach themselves to the ruler of this territory, their future would be more secure…

That night, they spared no effort to please Ji Chen, allowing him to truly experience the indulgent life of a lord, which was ten times more stimulating than the attire of the blonde girl from before.

Fresh fruits and fine wines were brought to him whenever he opened his mouth. A mere gesture of his legs would summon soothing massages. Incomparable pleasures were readily at his fingertips, defying any adequate description.

It fully embodied the concept of an extravagant lifestyle.

The next day at noon, Ji Chen looked at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror and felt uneasy.

He made up his mind and said firmly to himself, “1 have been harmed by wine and lust, resulting in such haggardness. From this day forth, I shall quit drinking!”

As he stepped out of the lord’s mansion, he saw Wilus approaching with a smile, bowing and greeting him.

“Lord, did you have a pleasant night? Those maidservants were carefully selected by me among the slaves. They perfectly match your aesthetic taste. Dealing with one would be enough for most people, but you managed to handle six. You truly are a great lord!” Wilus said, his face showing admiration.

Ji Chen was about to praise him, but he caught sight of Alice walking towards them. His expression instantly changed, and he scolded, “Do you know that 1 can barely get up today because of what happened last night? It’s all your fault!”

Wilus was stunned by the sudden outburst of scolding.

But as a hero, his mind was now much sharper, and he quickly recovered, apologizing, “I’m sorry for my shortcomings. 1 failed to understand your intentions. 1 hope you can forgive my mistake.”

Seeing this, Ji Chen’s expression improved slightly, but he still wore a stern face. “1 hope you reflect on this and don’t disappoint me.”

At this moment, Alice had also arrived and looked at him with a slightly aggrieved expression, remaining silent. She just stared at him.

Awkwardly, Ji Chen coughed a few times and gestured to Wilus with his eyes.

The moment their eyes met, they understood each other. Wilus quickly said, “Lord, I have something important to report, a matter of utmost urgency!” “An urgent matter? Then let’s discuss it inside the lord’s manor,” Ji Chen said, closing the door after they entered.

Through the crack in the door, Ji Chen sighed in relief after seeing Alice leave.

How should 1 put it? He had a guilty feeling of being caught by the main concubine, as well as a… sense of excitement.

Turning to Wilus, he smiled and praised, “You did a great job. I’m very satisfied with those maidservants.”

“As long as Lord is satisfied…” Wilus replied. “Actually, 1 have something to report.”

“What is it?”

“Just now, the fishermen who went out to fish discovered traces that resemble the Sea Heir!”

“Why didn’t you say it earlier?” Ji Chen’s face changed. “Where were they discovered?”

“It was near the northeastern sub-island. According to the fishermen, there were only about twenty of them, like a reconnaissance team, wandering around the nearby sea area.”

Ji Chen relaxed a little. It seemed that the Sea Heir hadn’t discovered the location of the territory. It was probably because all the Sea Heirs that had come here for food had died, so they sent a reconnaissance team to investigate. Near the northeastern sub-island…?

After encountering the Sea Heirs last time, Ji Chen had already prepared himself for a battle against them.

But naturally, in a battle, one had to choose a favorable location.

He had already selected the location on the northeastern sub-island. Abundant remnants of city walls were present, offering the opportunity to establish a defensive system against the assaults of the Sea Heir.

As a result of its geographical position, the Crown of the Ocean was situated on a sea island, unlike other mainland players who had managed to establish certain fortifications. In contrast, the Crown of the Ocean remained entirely defenseless.

Once the battlefield expanded to the main island, it could potentially affect the safety of the territory if the Sea Heir’s numbers were large enough, resulting in losses beyond his imagination.

So it was best to limit the battle to the northeastern sub-island.

“Lord, how should we deal with that Sea Heir reconnaissance team?” Wilus asked.

He had already learned about the tenacity of the Sea Heirs and their unlimited evolution, which was a nightmare for any living being.

Perhaps they could be defeated once, but who could guarantee what would happen after the second or third encounter? They might develop targeted abilities.

“Now, how much stone material does the territory have?” Ji Chen didn’t answer but asked instead.

Wilus was taken aback but answered truthfully, “During the time you were away at sea, we discovered several stone resource points in the underground storage. So far, we have accumulated quite a lot of stone material, about twenty thousand units.”

Twenty thousand units?

Although it was not enough, it was close.

During the battle against the skeleton army on the northeastern sub-island, Ji Chen noticed the remaining fortifications and the warning lighthouse. They could be repaired.

However, repairing such a large section required an astronomical amount of stone material that the Crown of the Ocean couldn’t currently afford.

If he repaired only a few sections, it would be within his capabilities.

As long as he could complete the repairs on those sections, even if a Sea Heir’s force several times their size arrived, Ji Chen had confidence in holding them off!

But for now, the priority was to quickly eliminate that Sea Heir reconnaissance team.

Otherwise, if they discovered the territory on the main island, their hive mind would instantly relay the information, and Ji Chen would no longer have control over the location of the battle..
