[The ancient Dragon Whale with revitalized bloodline can freely switch between human form and whale form.]

After the transformation, in addition to upgrading all skills to the Red tier, Anina gains two new abilities, “Incarnation of the Giant Whale” and “Mental Resistance”.

By the literal meanings, the former allows her to switch freely between her human form and the whale form. The latter seems to have been acquired due to the previous mental attack by the Sea Heir, making it a pleasant surprise.

Other heroes learned of Anina’s awakening and came to visit.

Seeing her transformed appearance, they were even more astonished than Ji Chen.

If it weren’t for the signature silvery-gray long hair and somewhat familiar facial features, they would never believe that this tall, well-built, and formidable young woman was the same petite girl they remembered.

It was an eye-opener!

The residents of the Crown of the Ocean were even more stunned. When they saw Anina’s current appearance, they were deeply shocked. The little girl had turned into a strong and valiant young woman!

Especially the younger girls, who gazed at Anina with eager eyes, appeared to have stars in their eyes.

Now, Anina, clad in fine armor, wielding the Dragon Slayer Great Sword, her hair neatly tied in a long ponytail, and her gallant face, appeared extremely handsome.

She instantly won the hearts of these girls who had daydreamed about her.

“Lady Anina looks so handsome now, just like a real knight. It’s like my dream lover!”

“Oh, my goodness! I feel like she’s even more handsome than our lord. My heart is racing!”

Anina looked at the enthusiastic gazes from those around her, accompanied by the girls’ excited cheers. She was a bit puzzled but still smiled and waved at them.

“All, Lady Anina is waving at me! I’m going to suffocate.”

“Oh, my goodness! I can die happy now!”

Watching their exaggerated reactions, Anina looked a bit puzzled as she glanced at her lord. She couldn’t understand why these humans had become like this.

There was indeed a generation gap between humans and whales.

In the days that followed, the commotion caused by Anina’s transformation gradually subsided, and the Crown of the Ocean returned to its steady development.

A fleet consisting of five ships, loaded with fluorescent mushrooms and various weapons and equipment, set sail for King Kong Island as the first batch of goods under the trade agreement between the Crown of the Ocean and King Kong Island.

This marks the first trade conducted between the Crown of the Ocean and player factions, which could be seen as a milestone.

Meanwhile, Raymond, leading a large fleet tasked with delivering weapons and equipment to the Northern Continent, almost crossed paths with the first fleet, returning smoothly to the Crown of the Ocean.

Upon his return, Raymond wasted no time and hurried to the Lord’s castle to report.

In the hall, Ji Chen looked at the dusty Raymond and patted his shoulder with satisfaction.

“You’ve worked hard.”

Raymond had a hint of fatigue on his brow, but his eyes were bright. He shook his head and said, “Serving the Crown of the Ocean is my honor. This was nothing.”

“Alright, how did the trade go? Was the journey smooth?”

“Report, my Lord. The mission to transport the weapons and equipment went incredibly well. Despite encountering a few pirates during the journey, we managed to repel and defeat them without much trouble. We also didn’t face any harsh storms or unfavorable weather conditions. The entire voyage was remarkably peaceful.”

This outcome was not surprising to Ji Chen.

Whether it was due to the Lord’s talents or the protection of the territory, from the beginning until now, Ji Chen had never encountered any adverse weather conditions at sea, not even heavy rain.

And this seemed to extend to his army and residents as well; they hadn’t encountered any adverse sea conditions either.

In the treacherous and stormy Mid-Ocean, this was quite incredible, and the countless shipwrecks on the ocean floor served as ample evidence.

This unique advantage had brought the Crown of the Ocean to the forefront.

“…We reached the Northern Continent swiftly, and the harbor was bustling with numerous arms merchants. The moment they discovered we had brought dozens of top-notch weapons and equipment, they went wild, buying up everything in a frenzy!

In just two days, all thirty-two ships of goods were sold out. Moreover, many merchants asked me if there were more weapons and equipment available. They are willing to establish a long-term procurement channel with the Crown of the Ocean and are willing to pay high prices.

This time, the reputation of the Crown of the Ocean has soared!”

Raymond spoke with enthusiasm, his face full of excitement.

“My Lord, 1 request your permission to transport another batch of military equipment to the Northern Continent immediately, to expand our market share and establish our reputation completely!”

Seeing Raymond’s enthusiasm, Ji Chen smiled and waved his hand.

“Your idea is commendable, but I believe that wars can’t be concluded quickly, and the military equipment market in the Northern Continent is substantial. There’s plenty for the Crown of the Ocean to compete for.

But after your strenuous journey, it’s best to take a few days to rest and then consider this matter. If you exhaust yourself, 1 won’t have anyone else to rely on.”

Hearing the concern in Ji Chen’s words, Raymond felt a bit touched. After some contemplation, he seemed to have made a decision.

“My Lord, there’s something I’d like to request.”

“What is it?”

“I want to bring our family to live in the Crown of the Ocean. Is that possible?”

This surprised Ji Chen.

Even though Raymond appeared loyal and diligent, he couldn’t hide the business relationship between them.

Most of the time, Raymond put in such effort because he could earn a substantial financial reward from the Crown of the Ocean’s trade.

Without this financial incentive, it’s uncertain how devoted he would be.

However, with Raymond’s proposal to relocate his family to the Crown of the Ocean, it suggested a strong commitment to this place.

This also signified his wholehearted dedication to our cause.

After a brief moment of thought, Ji Chen replied, “Of course, the Crown of the Ocean could use more fresh blood. 1 believe your family will be well-protected here, and you won’t need to worry about any living arrangements.”

Upon hearing this, Raymond’s face lit up, and he expressed his gratitude.

“By the way, when the next fleet sets sail, I want you to take a few special guests with you to the Northern Continent and escort them back to their homeland.”

“Special guests?”

“Yes, a dozen or so elves.”

“Elves?” Raymond was taken aback. When did the Crown of the Ocean have a dozen or so elves?

After Ji Chen explained, Raymond realized what was going on.

As a merchant who operated on the ocean, Raymond had heard of the greed of gnome merchants. However, he hadn’t expected them to engage in the trafficking of elves. It was quite audacious.

Soon, Raymond grasped the key point and said, “If we can transport a dozen or so elves back, it should greatly improve the favor of the elven race. This will be extremely beneficial for future trade between the Crown of the Ocean and the elves.”

Ji Chen glanced at him and nodded, saying, “That’s right. So, I will also accompany you to the Northern Continent when the time comes to formally engage with the elven race.”

“The Crown of the Ocean cannot remain confined to just the New Moon Islands…”

Raymond shuddered suddenly, as if he had sensed the ambition in Ji Chen’s words. His expression turned serious.

He looked around cautiously.

As good as the New Moon Islands were, they could only accommodate a maximum of around a hundred thousand residents and nurture a few tens of thousands of troops.

However, a kingdom was much more than just a small number of people.

The Crown of the Ocean needed to extend its reach outward….
