Ji Chen nodded and didn’t rush to unfold the map, placing it in his backpack before continuing to select the second item.

Various rare treasures from the outside world were displayed on the shelves, each of them worth a fortune. There were at least hundreds of them, a testament to the heritage of a native family that had been pa.s.sed down for thousands of years, not to mention the indigenous forces that had inherited their legacy for tens of thousands of years.

This made him increasingly interested in the biggest reward of this war—the tenth of the wealth of the Kingdom of Ba.s.s’ treasury.

No doubt, among these treasures, there was a significant amount of gold coins, enough to satisfy his desires.

Finally, Ji Chen chose a rare architectural blueprint.

[Architectural Blueprint: Hero Fountain]

[Tier]: 7 Stars

[Effects]: 0 Increases the chance of heroes being born in the territory

(2) Slowly enhances the life potential of the residents in the territory

Talent is always a valuable resource that can greatly drive the development of a territory.

The girl, Leysha, created the brewing industry of the Crown of the Ocean, while the interior minister, Wilus, allowed him to set aside the complicated affairs of the territory and efficiently manage resources and construction. The half-orc hero, Irona, created potions, reducing the mortality rate of the residents. Heroes like Alice and Anina fought alongside him, achieving countless victories in battles… These clearly showed the tremendous impact of hero units.

The military talent tree could improve the tier of heroes, but it couldn’t conjure heroes out of thin air.

The Hero Fountain could increase the chance of hero units being born, which held extraordinary significance for the Crown of the Ocean.

When Julius saw Ji Chen choose this blueprint, a look of approval appeared on his face.

In terms of preciousness, this Hero Fountain blueprint was easily in the top five here.

The next day.

Ji Chen received a message sent by Julius’ messenger, stating that two fleets of thousands of elves had already arrived at the City of Tressburg. This meant that they were about to embark on their return journey.

After a brief stop to refuel and resupply, the fleet set sail once again with Ji Chen and his companions.

Before departing, the young girl Monica had a reluctant expression on her face. However, she also knew that Ji Chen had many things to do next, and the residents of the Crown of the Ocean needed him more than she did. It was impossible for him to stay here forever. So, she suppressed her feelings of reluctance and waved goodbye to Ji Chen on the deck with a smile.

With the loud sound of ship horns, the fleet slowly moved away from the mainland, gradually becoming indistinct on the horizon.

Ji Chen stood at the bow of the ship, feeling the sea breeze blowing against his face, and his heart was filled with a pleasant emotion.

The gains from this trip to Lienhardt exceeded what he had initially imagined. Not only did he settle the score with the Kingdom of Ba.s.s, but he also obtained a vast amount of wealth. It also resulted in a significant boost in his own strength.

It felt akin to hitting a jackpot, just like when Qin Shi Huang struck gold!

Ji Chen, as if recalling something, opened his backpack and glanced at the eight-digit gold coin balance. A satisfied smile curved his lips.

This was only a small portion of what Julius had promised earlier, a tenth of the wealth from the Kingdom of Ba.s.s’ treasury.

Although the Kingdom of Ba.s.s had spent more than eighty percent of its gold coins for the war, the remaining twenty percent was still an enormous fortune. It amounted to billions of gold coins, and a tenth of that was nearly seven hundred million gold coins.

To be more precise, it was 698,680,000 gold coins, which was almost seven hundred million.

At a literal glance, it was an astonishing number.

For this wealth, Ji Chen only took a small portion. The rest would be entrusted to Julius to exchange and purchase rare resources before he left.

He wasn’t the kind of dragon who liked to sleep in a mountain of gold coins; the gold itself held little meaning to him. It could only be put to better use when converted into various resources.

This nearly seven hundred million gold coins were expected to bring him a considerable number of rare resources, in the tens of millions of units.

The fleet sailed southeast in the sea for several days, gradually heading towards the central part of the Western Central Ocean.

One day, Marianne, the Elder of Vale, approached Ji Chen.

The elderly elf, who was at least a thousand years old, appeared somewhat anxious and asked with a puzzled tone, “Lord Ji Chen, why aren’t we following the northern continent’s coastline directly to the Maple Princ.i.p.ality? Instead, we’re taking such a roundabout route?”

Ji Chen looked at Marianne’s somewhat impatient expression and could somewhat understand her feelings.

Isolation for hundreds of thousands of years and being separated from the main clan for so long naturally made them eager to meet their kin from the outside world.

Ji Chen smiled and rea.s.sured her, “Lady Marianne, it’s not that I want to take a roundabout route, but 1 have no choice but to do so.”

With that, he took out a map and pointed to a long, narrow stretch of sea in the northwest of the Western Central Ocean, extending from the coast of the northwestern continent to the central region.

“This long, narrow sea area is a forbidden zone of life, known as the Death Zone. It was the battleground of the G.o.ds tens of thousands of years ago, and there are rumors of fallen G.o.ds there.

Even to this day, the lingering divine power still runs rampant there. It’s constantly shrouded in storms and raging waves, making it unsuitable for safe navigation. For your safety, 1 had no choice but to take the fleet on a detour.”

Marianne suddenly realized and looked apologetic. “1 see now, I misunderstood you..”
