Chapter 1210: Chapter 1210

It took an entire day to prepare, and this was only because these people were his own subjects, absolutely loyal soldiers. If it were any other country preparing such a large military operation, who knows how much time it would take.

Elsa had also arrived in her territory with her group of Holy Temple Priest branch of the armed forces, thanks to the convenience of the Teleportation Array.

According to Du You’s requirements, this time Elsa only brought some Sacred Fox Kings and Holy Temple Priests. Pouting discontentedly, Elsa said, "Really, my forces are very strong, too. Why can’t they be allowed to join in directly?"

Even though she understood the reasoning, as a woman, Elsa was still prone to acting coquettishly.

"Alright, let’s set off now, no more talking," Du You said with a bit of a headache. It was indeed difficult to manage when surrounded by so many women. Even a little girl was still a woman, after all.

Since he couldn’t bring his entire force recklessly, Du You only brought some Shadow Assassins and Dark Knights, and the rest were the Griffin King, Vajra Gryphons, and the Griffin Knights.

Du You would not bring the powerful branches of the armed forces like the Lava Warriors and Fire Lizard Cavalry. The sea environment was really not suitable for them. However, Du You did bring a large number of Frogmen Kings. The Frogmen Kings were not very strong, but they were a powerful force in the water. Once the battle began, they would also prevent the enemy from escaping.

It was a pity about the Dragon Rider Camp. Though it had been upgraded to tier five, it still didn’t have any tier five soldiers. Otherwise, tier five Dragon Rider soldiers would certainly be able to exhibit powerful combat strength.

With a group in tow, Du You and his party set out. Of course, they traveled aboard the Platform Floating Cloud. The Platform Floating Cloud, once arranged, was like a small villa, very comfortable to live in.

Below them, various ships and some troop transports followed closely. The entire process was completely secretive, not witnessed by anyone who didn’t belong to the territory’s subjects. They entered the deep sea and, after taking a wide turn, finally headed towards even deeper waters. According to the map, a powerful tier six Magical Beast had appeared on an island there.

"Is it over here? How exactly did you find this place?" Du You spoke to the Communication Mirror, and on the other side was Luo Jia, who had the mirror turned on constantly. Luo Jia was not aboard the Platform Floating Cloud but on the ships below, where they were all Du You’s own people.

"Lord, it was . Initially, our merchant ships encountered a storm at sea and accidentally deviated from the course to that place. After we learned of this, we temporarily detained those people, preventing them from revealing any news to the outside world."

"Wouldn’t that cause any trouble?" Du You was talking about the merchant.

"Not at all. The merchant is one of our territory’s people. Although he isn’t a subject, he is among the first group of foreign subjects who joined, and his loyalty is very high. After we offered appropriate compensation, he was very happy."

Du You nodded, that was good news. Looking around, Du You felt a bit depressed. He’d originally planned to enjoy himself on the journey, having not seen Shaliya for some time and missing her quite a bit.

But it wasn’t just Shaliya and her two sisters; Elsa had also come aboard, leaving no opportunity for indulgence. In Du You’s heart, Elsa was like his own sister, and he couldn’t possibly do that sort of thing in front of her. The Platform Floating Cloud wasn’t very large, and given Elsa’s strength, she could probably hear any activity, no matter what it was.

Thus, under a cloud of gloom, Du You spent three days traveling, finally reaching the destination.

The reason for the lengthy travel time was mainly due to the slow speed of the ordinary ships. Even though they were protected by multi-purpose troop transports, the speed was still not fast, and this time it was a miscalculation.

For future operations, he must make better plans for navigation ahead of time; if necessary, he could set off later himself.

But now it was pointless to talk about it. Upon reaching the destination, Du You saw the small island in the distance. No, it wasn’t really a small island, but rather, a vast area of rocks. The rocks covered a large area, but there was no soil, no vegetation growing. Around it, the sea water was constantly washing back and forth.

On top of the rocks were a large group of turtles, emitting a strong cold aura. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✦𝓷𝓮𝓽

However, in the center was a gigantic figure, distinctly different from these turtles. It had limbs not like typical turtle flippers but claws like a terrestrial tortoise, glinting with a sharp, cold light.

On its back were spikes, just like a hedgehog, and its head was immensely fierce. At the moment, the tortoise hadn’t noticed them or perhaps it had but simply didn’t care. After all, given its own strength, there were few natural enemies to worry about.

"This is a Sea King Turtle," Shaliya suddenly spoke up.

"What? Sister Shaliya, you recognize this creature?" Lin Yushi asked curiously.

"Yes, it’s a legend of the sea. I thought it didn’t really exist, but here it is. According to legend, the Sea King Turtle is a messenger of the sea god, commanding water and thunder from the sky. Look at the spikes on its back; there should be a total of eighty-eight. If there’s a pattern of thunder and lightning on them, then that’s it."

"Indeed, there are thunder and lightning patterns, and there are eighty-eight," Lin Yucha said. Her eyesight was the best, and she had seen it from afar.

"Not only does it have the ability to control water, but it also possesses the power of thunder and lightning," Du You muttered to himself, believing Shaliya’s words.

Shaliya was no ordinary person. Having grown up as a princess of the island Duchy, unlike Luo Jia, who had lived on land all his life, she knew some of the legends of the sea.

However, a tier six Magical Beast becoming a legend wasn’t that strange. Especially a turtle species; these creatures had long lifespans, and reaching tier six nearly guaranteed an endless life.

"Okay, let’s stop here. If we go any further and get discovered, it won’t be good. Also, Luo Jia, just command from a distance and get everyone else ready," Du You started giving orders. He didn’t want anything to happen to his military commander-in-chief. Besides, this operation was all about taking a chance, minimizing losses was the most important thing.

Luo Jia nodded and then stopped the ship. He began to establish a simple command center from a distance. The other ships dispersed, encircling the whole rock formation. The tier five soldiers also began to get ready.

The Gryphons and Griffin Knights rose into the sky, carefully watching the enemy ahead. The atmosphere began to shift; a portion of the turtles around sensed the tension and gradually became restless, looking around and growling softly.
