209: Chapter 209 South China Sea City

"All of my assets were left in the Myriad Spirit Realm."

"Never mind three or four million spirit realm coins, even thirty or forty billion is just a drop in the bucket."

Tang Mo: "What use is telling me this? Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst."

"Besides, you've been exiled to Blue Star. Your assets might have long since been seized by your enemies; they might be completely gone by now."

A cryptic smile appeared on Shi You's mask; his assets were something only he could retrieve.

"Don't worry about those vermilion blood fruits; the divine hero stone in your hand is the most valuable thing."

"The divine hero stone is used to craft divine-grade equipment; it is extremely rare even in the Myriad Spirit Realm."

Tang Mo: "Really? These stones are more valuable than the vermilion blood fruits?"

Shi You nodded and said: "That goes without saying. After all, even without vermilion blood fruits, we have other ways to level up, but without the divine hero stone, it is truly impossible to craft good equipment."

"Once you actually go to the Myriad Spirit Realm, you will know its value."

"The value of just that one piece in your hand far exceeds the ten vermilion blood fruits you have."

Tang Mo: "Really? Alright then, it won't be too late to go to the Myriad Spirit Realm after I deal with these Sea Clan and those Beast Lords on Blue Star."

This wasn't just Tang Mo speaking off the cuff.

Ever since he killed the Flying Shadow Leopard, Tang Mo had developed a keen interest in these creatures from other worlds.

Killing one granted double equipment rewards; it was simply too cost-effective.

Furthermore, the equipment forging technology of the Myriad Spirit Realm that Shi You spoke of also interested Tang Mo greatly.

There were quite a few Professionals on Blue Star who had transferred into classes like Forger or Blacksmith.

But at most, they could only craft gold-grade equipment, and the success rate was not satisfactory.

If the forging technology of the Myriad Spirit Realm could be introduced, Blue Star's strength would definitely rise to a new level.

Just as Tang Mo was daydreaming, the heavenly sword token suddenly began to tremble.

It turned out that Si Yueze had sent a message; the Sea Clan army had finished assembling and could launch an attack at any moment.

"Are these Sea Clan so impatient to die?"

As he spoke, Tang Mo used the Gate of All Things to arrive at the Senyang City teleportation station, then used the station to travel directly to Nanhai City.

Nanhai City, a city located in the southern waters of Daxia.

Tang Mo walked out of the teleportation station. Not a single person could be seen on the streets; occasionally, he could see a few squads responsible for the Guard Army's logistics transporting strategic supplies.

"Come on everyone, let's hurry and transport these giant city-defense crossbow bolts over!"

A familiar voice immediately caught Tang Mo's attention.

"Wang Kaiwen!"

Hearing the voice, a logistics soldier turned around quickly; it was Tang Mo's high school classmate, Wang Kaiwen.

"Tang Mo!"

Wang Kaiwen was greatly surprised; he put down the crossbow bolt in his hand and ran toward Tang Mo.

"Why did you run here? And dressed like this?"

Tang Mo asked, puzzled.

"What else would I be doing? Obviously defending our home and country! Don't talk about me, aren't you the same?"

"Is this your classmate? Hello, my name is Wang Kaiwen, Tang Mo's high school classmate."

Wang Kaiwen said as he reached out his hand to shake hands.

Shi You was clearly stunned.

He saw Wang Kaiwen's level clearly: level 31.

He never expected such a day would come, where garbage of level 30-something would dare run up to him and even want to shake his hand.

But he understood that since this was Tang Mo's friend, he could no longer treat him with that high-and-mighty attitude.

Therefore, Shi You reached out and shook Wang Kaiwen's hand, saying:

"Shi You."

After the introduction, Wang Kaiwen patted his chest and said proudly to Tang Mo: "Old Tang, I'm already level 31 now! How about that? Impressive, right!"

"Among the freshmen in our school, my level can be considered upper-middle!"

Tang Mo was also surprised. He remembered that during the Unified Examination, Wang Kaiwen was only level 10-something.

"Not bad, I didn't see that coming; you kid are doing alright!"

Only about two months had passed, and Wang Kaiwen had actually leveled up from the teens to level 31. This leveling speed could not be called slow.

"Hehe, I can't compare to Brother Tang."

"The achievements I have now are all thanks to the gold-grade equipment you gave me back then. Otherwise, I'd probably still be muddling through life."

Shi You couldn't help but mutter to himself: "You're not much different from muddling through life right now."

Roar~!

Hum~!

Suddenly, countless roars of fierce beasts came from outside the city.

Then, a huge curtain of light rose from the city, enveloping the entire Nanhai City.

"Oh no! Those sea beasts have already started attacking the city!"

"I can't talk anymore; I have to get these crossbow bolts up there. You two should hurry and report in as well!"

After saying this, Wang Kaiwen picked up the crossbow bolts and rushed up the city wall in a panic.

Watching Wang Kaiwen's figure, a look of astonishment appeared on Shi You's face.

"No, does this guy not know what level the Sea Clan outside the city are?"

"A level 31 Professional like him dares to charge up there?!"

Turning around, Tang Mo had already taken out his staff and flew toward the city wall.

Shi You had no choice but to follow.

Only by staying by Tang Mo's side could he maintain the human form that others saw.

Flying to the top of the city wall, Tang Mo met another old acquaintance.

Luo Heng was directing the Guard Army on the city wall to install the crossbow bolts, waiting for the protective shield to break so they could deliver a fatal blow to these sea beasts.

The moment he saw Tang Mo, Luo Heng was also stunned.

But he quickly realized that this was someone sent by the higher-ups to provide support.

After the incident in Jiangkou City, Luo Heng didn't quite know how to face Tang Mo.

After his gaze merely swept over Luo Heng, Tang Mo's eyes returned to the sea.

He saw that the vast sea surface was already densely packed with Sea Clan Fierce Beasts.

Most of them were huge in size, and their levels were all above seven or eight hundred.

Just looking at them across the sea revealed a tremendous sense of oppression.

Even through the saint-grade protective shield, the bodies of some weaker Guard Army soldiers were trembling uncontrollably.

There was no helping it; the gap in level and strength was too great.

The average level of the Guard Army side was only around 200.

Moreover, due to the arrest of the Duanmu, Li, and Wang families, the production of magic energy crystals had almost come to a standstill.

Therefore, this time, they could only rely on Tang Mo alone.

After a series of roars, the Sea Clan Fierce Beasts on the opposite sea seemed to have completed their pre-battle deployment.

As a huge, lobster-like sea beast at the front of the formation waved its large pincers,

the fierce beasts on the sea surface all followed suit and dove into the seabed.

"Eh? Why did they run away?"

On the city wall, the Guard Army soldiers looked at each other in confusion, not understanding.

Soon, someone discovered with horror that the sea level in front of them was rising rapidly at an alarming speed.

Before long, a tsunami nearly a thousand zhang high appeared before everyone.

You must know, the walls of Daxia were only 200 zhang high.

Given the thickness of that giant wave, the saint-grade shield in front of them probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Once the shield shattered, Nanhai City would definitely not escape its doom.

A feeling of despair spread rapidly across the city wall; they could only watch helplessly as the giant wave swept toward them.
