Chapter 731: Chapter 731
"Hahaha, so it is indeed true!"
Helian Ba couldn’t help but burst into delighted laughter, looking toward the direction Bai Ting was pointing at.
Lo and behold, it was indeed the course that the two still undamaged ships were taking.
It was very likely that this course truly pointed directly to Hero Island’s location.
Hearing this, the various trusted subordinates nearby were also overjoyed.
Just then, a long cry from the Demon Hawk rang out in the sky, and it turned back and flew away.
Helian Ba immediately ordered his Abnormal People to contact the two ships at that location and to continue sailing straight at increased speed.
Not long after, the Abnormal People relayed the thrilling news that they had discovered the outline of a massive island within the fog.
Standing at the bow of the ship, Helian Ba excitedly laughed, "Black Wind Village Chief, that’s all there is to you. We should thank you for your Demon Hawk leading the way and helping us find Hero Island, hahahahaha!"
The members of Sea Shark Palace around him couldn’t help but burst into laughter as well.
Many Sea Shark Palace players also found a great sense of achievement and joined in the mocking laughter, capturing the moment to post on the Jianghu Forum. They posted to taunt and belittle Black Wind Village and the Black Wind Village Chief, seeking the thrill of mockery.
The commotion on the Jianghu Forum was naturally seen by the players on Hero Island.
They all exploded in an uproar, utterly frustrated.
Had their Village Chief become a pig-headed teammate this time?
To have carelessly revealed the island’s location and be subjected to mockery and belittlement by the enemy.
The fatso immediately went, with a thick skin, to report the situation to Jiang Dali, mentioning the incident of the Demon Hawk leaking the island’s location, and that Sea Shark Palace might soon set foot on the island.
Jiang Dali clapped his hands and said, "They’re not too stupid, yet they’re not clever either. I had my great bird circle in the sky and point the way several times, and it has taken them until now to find it. They are really quite slow."
The fatso was astonished. "So you had already planned this, Chief? You actually wanted them to land on the island?"
Jiang Dali said indifferently, "For those itchy-boned enemies who come knocking on our door, I’ve always welcomed all comers. Only by beating them hard will they understand whether they should stand or kneel when facing me."
Those nearby, Dragon, Master Mu, and the many experts were all startled upon hearing this.
They would occasionally look up at the Demon Hawk circling in the sky, unsure how to interpret Jiang Dali’s arrogance.
A resonant and powerful horn sounded from the foggy sea across from them.
Two huge ship shadows emerged from within the fog, their outlines faint and mingled with the cheers of the players.
However, these two ships, although their silhouettes were revealed, seemed to stop on the sea and wait, not moving forward.
A flurry of signal flares suddenly rose into the air near the two ships, exploded, and left a very clear trail for guidance.
A deep-toned horn responded from afar, resembling a charging call to battle.
At the horizon, coming through the fog, three even larger ships surged forward, breaking through the waves with their massive sails unfurled, like three beasts choosing their prey and charging straight ahead.
Everyone on the island felt a chill in their hearts.
More than eight hundred people along the coast all had their hearts in their throats, their nerves taut.
"The moment has finally arrived!"
Jiang Dali stood up and looked into the distance, taking the initiative to walk towards the shore.
With his movement, Dragon, Master Mu, and the many heroes of the Martial World also followed closely.
Half a stick of incense later, the distant large ships closed in, looming like three mountains moving upon the lake.
At this time, the two ships in the front also resumed their voyage forward.
With a "boom," the two giant ships docked against the shore, shaking some of the rocks just a bit.
Ropes flew from the ships down to the rocks, wrapping around them and securing the large vessels.
The figures of many players appeared on the decks, surveying Hero Island with eyes filled with surprise, anticipation, greed, fear, and curiosity.
Next, the three ships that followed docked in succession, like a series of luohan figures, with ropes connected to ropes.
Many elite martial artists from Sea Shark Palace with superb Lightweight Skills disembarked swiftly and landed ashore.
The division heads from the Sea Shark Palace’s Thirty-Three Layered Palace were the most impatient.
Anxious to show themselves, they raced onto the shore, followed by the sight of more than eight hundred Eight Desolate Disciples and many disciples of Hero Island, all arrayed in battle formation and waiting.
A dense crowd of people.
Yet the Black Wind Village Chief was still not in sight.
Such an array even caused the thirty-three division heads of the Sea Shark Palace’s Thirty-Three Layered Palace to unconsciously halt their march.
At this point, more elite martial artists from Sea Shark Palace swarmed out, quickly filling the beach and forming a standoff against the many players and experts of Hero Island.
"Fatso, do we fight or not? They don’t have as many people as we do."
"If the enemy doesn’t move, we don’t move. Wait for the chief’s command. It seems the chief has lured them onto the island on purpose."
"With the chief’s temper, luring them onto the island definitely won’t be for a dinner invitation. There’s bound to be a fight later."
"Hmph! I’ve long wanted to pound these Sea Shark Palace jerks; they’re always causing trouble for our Supreme Alliance."
The players on Hero Island were eager, with glittering eyes, somewhat itching to start the battle themselves.
On the other side, the players from Sea Shark Palace also had many who were eager for a fight and bore the same expression.
A gap appeared in the crowd on the side of Sea Shark Palace.
Two tall figures with an imposing and majestic air made their way through the throng, flanked by the division heads of the Thirty-Three Layered Palace.
After Helian Ba stepped out, he glanced around and directly looked past the players and various disciples like Zhang San and Li Si, laughing loudly, "Sea Shark Palace Master Helian Ba, along with my sworn brother, Divine Fire Sect Leader Bai Ting, have come to visit the two Island Masters of Hero Island, as well as the Black Wind Village Chief. I wonder if the three of you would dare to come out and meet us?"
