Cannons roared in the distance, smoke filled the air, and the vast sea was splattered with water.

The intense sound of explosions echoed across the white seascape, deafening to the ears.

Chris, paying no heed to the outside world, held his weapon and silently stared at the approaching Sea God Cult’s fleet.

The moment to board was upon them!

There were no Monarch Level powerhouses among the enemy fleet, and the number of Transmutation Extraordinary Exponents wouldn’t be too high, so he had no need to concern himself with anything else.

“Fire!”

Theo issued the command again as a cannonball struck the ship, immediately knocking everyone off their feet.

Immediately thereafter, another cannonball was about to fall, but was blocked by a red barrier created by Vanessa using the Punishment Gloves!

As the two fleets neared each other, they continued to bombard one another with cannon fire, gradually leading to some ships being unable to withstand the terrifying blasts and sinking.

Meanwhile, Chris stood on the deck, gazing at the flagship in the distance, sniffing out the scent of a high-level Transmutation Extraordinary Exponent through his Tracking Senses’ extraordinary trait.

Ah, confirmed.

That person was the only worthy opponent among the many enemies.

He waited until the ship drew near, and when the distance was still hundreds of meters away, he suddenly leaped into the air, crossing the vast distance like a large bird and abruptly landing on the enemy flagship!

The enemies were all stunned, as leaping over a hundred meters wasn’t something an ordinary Extraordinary could do—it had to be a very powerful expert!

“Board them! That’s Chris Fischer of the Fischer family, let’s kill him together!”

Chris immediately heard a female voice not far away, which also disclosed his identity, and then he quickly surveyed the situation on the enemy flagship.

There were many enemies, easily numbering in the hundreds, yet there were only fifteen Extraordinaries, three of them being Transmutation Extraordinaries.

One low-level Transmutation, one mid-level Transmutation, and one high-level Transmutation priestess.

The priestess, already of middle age, dressed in blue clothes and with a rigid face, looked very serious.

Based on information collected over the years by the Fischer family, Chris immediately judged that she must be one of the priestesses of the Sea God Cult, Priestess Cyan Blue.

Ah, aside from the three Transmutation Extraordinaries, he could disregard the rest, he quickly made the judgment deep within himself.

Priestess Cyan Blue’s power of Bloodline and her brother Azure Blue’s were identical, both could transform themselves into strange water beings and shoot out highly lethal cyan blue light.

“Shoot!”

Those soldiers wanted to shoot, but were quickly stupefied.

Chris’s Nimble Body was exquisitely effective, dodging the attacks with lightning-fast speed, moving so fast he even cast afterimages, leaving the ordinary natives clueless on how to attack him!

Even firing a gun was useless; he could truly dodge bullets!

“Chris Fischer is very strong, be careful!”

The other two Transmutation powerful experts also launched attacks. The more powerful of them, a mid-level Transmutation Expert, was a fire-type Bloodline Extraordinary Exponent rare in the Sea God Cult, capable of spewing lava.

He took a deep breath and expelled a massive amount of molten lava flames, completely disregarding the lives of his subordinate soldiers, and in the process, many of his own people were killed.

However, Chris easily dodged it.

The other, only a low-level Transmutation Extraordinary, had the ability to cover his body with sea dragon scales and control ice, possessing strong defensive power.

Suddenly, Chris burst forth like a flying spear, rushing towards the weakest Transmutation Extraordinary with incredible speed. On the way, he wielded his weapon, slaughtering a dozen people, their blood and remnants flying chaotically around, causing the panicked native members to scramble away in terror!

“Aaah! Help me!”

The Sea Dragon Bloodline Extraordinary was terrified, retreating quickly as he watched that terrifying individual raise a hand, attempting to make an ice defense!

The black Fire of Sin instantly destroyed his ice armor, and then burnt his body; Chris effortlessly killed the low-level Transmutation Extraordinary right on the spot!

There were only two Transmutation Extraordinaries left, Priestess Cyan Blue and the lava-spewing man, who, seeing their companion being ambushed and killed, were both filled with shock and rage, becoming even more aware of the exceptional strength of their enemy!

“How could this be, is that person from the Fischer family so strong?”

Priestess Cyan Blue found it hard to comprehend. Although both were high-level Transmutations, it seemed that the other’s strength was completely above her own!

She released cyan blue light over and over, only to have her attacks evasively dodged by her opponent, watching powerlessly as Chris Fischer, like a phantom, reached another one of her subordinates and swiftly decapitated him.

That head flew into the air; blood gushed from the severed neck, and the only remaining Priestess Cyan Blue realized the enormity of her predicament.

“I surrender! Stop!”

She immediately shouted out, no longer fighting in the form of a water being, having decided to completely surrender, hoping only to save her life and not to be killed like her brother and subordinates.

Meanwhile, Chris’s “Countdown Timer” he had set two minutes earlier was up, and the next moment, a gray light caused everything around him to freeze for two seconds!

He approached Priestess Cyan Blue expressionlessly and without hesitation, he chopped off all the limbs of the middle-aged priestess.

“Aaaaaaah!”

After the freeze subsided, Priestess Cyan Blue screamed miserably, writhing helplessly on the ground.

Chris, like a demon devoid of emotion, calmly grabbed her hair, climbed above the mouth of the sail, and displayed the mutilated body of Priestess Cyan Blue to all the natives of the Sea God Cult.

“Priestess Cyan Blue has been captured!”

“We’ve lost!”

In an instant, he caused a complete collapse in the morale of all the enemies, leading to the natives on the sea choosing to surrender or flee quickly.

“Long live Lord Chris!”

“We won!”

“Hahahahaha!”

The members of the Fischer family all cheered and jumped for joy, and then Theo immediately began to organize the crew to salvage the sailors and items that had fallen into the water, while Vanessa took charge of organizing a crew to repair the ship and treat the injured.

Chris, facing the sea breeze, took a deep breath, knowing clearly in his heart that there were actually not many among the Extraordinary Exponents below the Monarch Level who could threaten him now.

“Hmm…”

Among the people he knew, only Viscount Bast could be considered one, perhaps.

Undoubtedly, capturing the Priestess Cyan Blue of the Sea God Cult was a great achievement, and soon after, Chris found a Treasure-class mysterious rare artifact on her.

“Green Feather,” it looked like a cyan feather, but in reality, as long as the “Green Feather” had touched any trace of the target, it could automatically seek the enemy and drift slowly toward the location of the target, and the most impressive thing was that there was no limit on distance at all.

“This guy is a priest of the Sea God Cult?”

Before long, Theo and Vanessa both saw the middle-aged woman whose limbs had been cut off and who was unconscious from the severe blood loss, Chris nodded calmly.

He did all this effortlessly, as though he had just caught a chicken instead of a high-level Transmutation powerful expert, a priest who ruled over a faction of the Sea God Cult.

Theo felt reassured for the Fischer family to have such a powerful warrior, and Vanessa, seeing Chris uninjured, sighed in relief.

Vanessa stared at the unconscious Priestess Cyan Blue and said solemnly,

“It was this person who came to kill us… It’s strange, they seemed to know our shipping route in advance, the timing is a bit too coincidental.”

Theo also felt that this was the case and nodded slightly, saying calmly, “Perhaps someone leaked the information about the route. After we clean up the aftermath, we need to question this person, as well as the other captives, and by comparing their statements we will know the truth.”

Several hours later, after the interrogation was done, they learned of an astonishing piece of news!

The Priestess Cyan Blue had actually been commissioned by the Spirit Communicator of Radiance Island to intercept them. According to the agreement, they would take the money and resources the Fischer family had gained through trade, with the Sea God Cult obtaining thirty percent of the profits and the Spirit Communicator taking the other seventy percent.

Even after the attack and plunder, the Priestess Cyan Blue was instructed by the Spirit Communicator to deliberately leave one ship for the Fischer family to report back, not affecting the subsequent business between the Spirit Communicator and the Fischer family at all.

Vanessa was shocked and said with her eyes wide open,

“I really didn’t expect that these people overseas would be so greedy and brutal! Their moral bottom line is even lower than that of the nobles on the continent!”

Theo hadn’t expected it to be such a matter, but Chris was not very surprised.

Because, at the time, the Spirit Communicator had been too easy to talk to.

But considering the living environment of the residents on that island, the strict hierarchy, and the Spirit Communicator’s image, he was definitely not a kind and orderly being.

Overseas is a barbarous land with no moral bottom line, where almost everything is starkly about the survival of the fittest.

——

The fleet finally returned to the port of Nasir Town, and as the ships gradually docked, everyone couldn’t help cheering, with tears welling up in their eyes as they sang, touched that they were alive to return!

Many members of the Fischer family had come to the port to welcome them, and when Chris disembarked, he looked towards Byrne and the others who had come to greet him. He was about to ask about Darren’s matter when he felt that something was very wrong.

The atmosphere was unusually heavy, and everyone was looking at him as if there was some very important matter that also involved him.

“…”

Chris calmly approached Byrne and suddenly realized something, unable to help himself, he spoke up,

“Where’s my sister?”

He hadn’t seen his sister, who had returned to the family, after coming back from the sea—it was logically impossible!

Byrne took a deep sigh, said nothing, and Chris felt stunned as if struck by lightning.

So that was it.

He felt a heart-wrenching pain surge like never before. It was the greatest agony he had experienced in his life, even more so than if his limbs had been smashed to pieces.

Soon, everyone was shocked to see a scene they had never witnessed before, nor could have ever imagined.

Tears slowly trickled from Chris’s eyes.

His face was expressionless, yet he couldn’t stop crying, his body trembling slightly until he was tightly embraced by Vanessa, who was also crying.

“Chris, Chris…”

Vanessa was also someone Hospital Director Irene had watched grow up. To her, Irene was also the best sister, an irreplaceable family member.

Archibald in the welcoming team couldn’t help crying as well.

“Hospital Director Irene, she’s gone, and didn’t even get to see Chris for the last time… Damn it, why did it have to be this way?”

Theo sighed and asked, “Did Madam Irene return to the Lord’s embrace because her time had come?”

“No.”

Lilian stepped forward, shook her head in denial, and explained the events that had recently transpired to the stunned few.

“That’s how it was. I believe my aunt was happy in the end. She has returned to the Lord’s embrace, so we need not feel sad for her.”

Lilian truly felt that way, and she wasn’t afraid of death at all either because the great Lord of the Lost would surely take all of his devout followers.

“It’s the Meyer family again!”

After hearing the whole story, those who had returned with the fleet were filled with hatred. Everyone but Chris gritted their teeth with a desire to rush immediately to the front lines.

Only Chris remained silent, saying nothing, his cold eyes filled with a purest form of killing intent.
