The residents fell silent, gazing up at their beloved Lord.

Ji Chen surveyed the surroundings and spoke slowly, “This time at sea, we achieved unprecedented gains—resources, armies, and population. We have obtained enough resources to fill our warehouses, enabling the prosperity and better lives of all on the Ocean Crown. Our armies have grown stronger through extensive battles, capable of resisting any external threats!”

“But that’s not all; more residents and companions have chosen to join us. As a result, the New Moon Islands will become even livelier and more vibrant. While we fight for the future of the Ocean Crown abroad, you have not slackened at home.”

“I’ve witnessed the water fort rising rapidly, the budding commercial port, the sea of new homes, and the dedicated figures toiling under the scorching sun.”

“You have played a crucial role, no less than us, perhaps even surpa.s.sing us.”

With genuine emotion in his speech, Ji Chen touched the hearts of the residents, causing their faces to flush with excitement. They realized that their recent hardships and fatigue were nothing compared to the recognition and praise from their Lord.

An emotion began brewing within them, like the prelude to a volcanic eruption. Ji Chen could sense the atmosphere and emotions reaching their peak.

He opened his arms, his enthusiasm rising, and his voice became more fervent, “I am immensely proud of the residents of the Ocean Crown!”

“But this is not enough. We are still not strong enough because ambitious outsiders are greedily eyeing our land, wanting to seize it and take away our place of survival.”

“Can we agree to their demands?”

“NO!!!”

The native residents roared with defiance.

“Evil creatures from the deep sea want to invade us again, kill us, and devour our families and companions, turning this place into a desolate and lifeless wasteland.”

“Can we stop resisting and surrender?”

“NO! KILL THEM!!!”

The residents seemed to envision the scenes of grotesque monsters roaring and charging towards them, fearlessly expressing their determination.

“And those cunning adversaries hiding in the shadows, plotting malicious schemes, waiting for us to let down our guard and deliver a deadly blow.”

“Can we become complacent with our achievements and stop striving to become stronger?”

“NO! KEEP MOVING FORWARD!!!”

“Very well!” Ji Chen raised his right hand triumphantly, his demeanor impa.s.sioned. “In that case, we must continue to strive and fight. Every bit of effort today will make tomorrow’s life even better.”

“With each step forward today, we become stronger tomorrow!”

“As long as we keep marching, our vision high, our will unwavering, one day, the Ocean Crown will become the most dazzling gem amidst the boundless ocean!!”

“Long live the Lord! Long live the Ocean Crown!”

Suddenly, a resounding roar erupted from the crowd, igniting the “volcano”.

“Long live the Lord! Long live the Ocean Crown!”

“Long live the Lord! Long live the Ocean Crown!”

The thunderous sound reverberated like a roaring thunder, shaking the leaves, startling birds into flight, and drowning out the howling of the sea tide.

All the residents were in a state of fervor, waving their arms as if they could wave them off, pa.s.sionately shouting slogans, and gazing at Ji Chen on the high platform with intense excitement.

At this moment, Ji Chen was their deity in their hearts.

Outside the crowd, Lady Irona watched Ji Chen amidst the fervent people, her face filled with astonishment. Her heart pounded violently with the chants of the crowd, making her feel like she had become a part of them.

To be adored so pa.s.sionately by the residents, the Lord must be a wise and mighty leader who could guide them towards greatness.

Just as she felt relieved and rea.s.sured, she suddenly heard a voice coming from nearby.

“Long live the Lord! Long live the Ocean Crown!”

She turned her head and saw Daro, his face flushed with excitement and tears in his eyes, waving his arms and shouting slogans at the top of his voice. Thanks to his naturally loud voice, he had become the most eye-catching one among the crowd.

Lady Irona was speechless.

This guy sure adapted quickly.

“Ding- Due to your speech, the people’s sentiment has increased by 15 points. The current sentiment is 85 points, and the labor efficiency of the residents will be increased by 50% within the next seven days.”

“Ding- Due to your speech, the newly joined residents will not lower the sentiment.”

As Ji Chen saw the system notifications pop up, he felt pleasantly surprised. In ordinary situations, with so many new residents, especially from different races, the sentiment would typically plummet by dozens of points in an instant.

But now, not only did the sentiment not drop, but it even increased significantly—what a fantastic gain!

Feeling the energy and loyalty of the residents, Ji Chen’s heart swelled with pride and determination.

With such a devoted and pa.s.sionate group, he was more certain than ever that the Ocean Crown would become an unshakable bastion of strength and prosperity. He could sense the potential of this land, and with the support of his people, they would face any challenge and emerge victorious.

The speech had ignited a burning spirit in the hearts of the residents, and this fiery pa.s.sion would fuel their journey towards an even brighter future. The Ocean Crown was now not just a land of survival, but a land of dreams and aspirations, a realm where hope and determination thrived.

The Lord of Glory, Ji Chen, smiled as he basked in the heartfelt cheers of the people, vowing to lead them to achieve greatness and defend their beloved home, the Ocean Crown, against all odds.

“Wikis, stay behind, and the rest of you, go about your work!”

With Ji Chen’s order, all the residents rushed enthusiastically to their respective posts, and the previously crowded dock suddenly became empty.

Wilus walked over, his face still filled with excitement from the earlier speech. “My Lord, your words were simply marvelous! I have never seen such a magnificent Lord like you!”

Ji Chen smiled and said, “Calm down now, there’s still a lot of work for you to do.”

“Please, give me your orders!”

“Take the new human residents from the ship and a.s.sign them housing in the territory.”

“Be sure to keep them separate from the original residents for a while to allow them time to get acquainted and adapt to each other.”

“Unload all the supplies from the ship and move them into storage, but prioritize organizing the personnel first.”

“Here are the building blueprints for you. Coordinate the resources and start construction when it’s appropriate.”

“And, I brought back a batch of alchemical guards from the outside. They will be responsible for the defense of the Ocean Crown and the New Moon Islands. The original army can return to their posts.”

“That’s it for now.”

Ji Chen rapidly gave a series of instructions.

Wilus accepted the stack of blueprints, bowed, and immediately set to work. A loyal and dutiful subordinate like him was someone any lord would cherish.

Soon, groups of new residents were led into the territory, and box after box of supplies were unloaded and carried away.

As for the Half-Orcs, Ji Chen had promised to allow them to find a place to live on the island. So, he instructed Benbo to lead Lady Irona and Daro to explore the islands and find suitable locations for settlement.

Of course, they would have to build their own houses, as the current human residences in the territory would probably make them feel cramped due to their size.

After settling the new residents, Ji Chen and the others returned to the Ocean Crown and disbanded the army. He then took out the Control Crystal from his backpack and connected it to the territory.

“Ding- Control Crystal has been bound to the territory.”

Following the system prompt, Ji Chen released the alchemical guards from the s.p.a.ce Storage Sphere.

The residents were thrilled and filled with admiration when they saw these guardians, knowing that they were here to protect them.

Ji Chen spent some time releasing all eight hundred Ruins Guardians, filling the territory to the brim, making it quite crowded.

With a thought, he quickly commanded them to various locations – the outskirts of the territory, the water fort, the commercial port, resource points, warning lighthouses, and the subsidiary islands.

The Ruins Guardians either patrolled in plain sight or concealed themselves in inconspicuous corners, ready to act when the time came.

Next, Ji Chen went to the beach and released all the Ocean Guardians as well.

With over two thousand of them, they would patrol the New Moon Islands day and night, providing defense and vigilance against any invading enemies.

Lastly, more than forty Sky Guardians soared into the sky, becoming a pair of watchful eyes from above.

With the addition of the alchemical guards, the defense system of the Ocean Crown became even more robust, and its protection capability improved significantly.

Everything was completed!
