[Food Storage]: Fluorescent Mushrooms (584,000 units), Seafood (209,000 units), Sea Rice (426,000 units), Miscellaneous Fruits and Vegetables (over 150,000 units).

[Territory Specialties]: Rare Jungle Wood (4-star specialty), Premium Coffee Beans (4-star specialty), Golden Sea Bass (2-star specialty), Merfabric (7-star specialty).

[Territory Unique Buildings]: Jungle Plantation (12).

[Territory Blessing]: Ocean’s Blessing (residents and troops can capture more fish in the ocean, and their water skills and sense of direction are greatly improved in the ocean).

After several months of development, the Crown of the Ocean was no longer the impoverished and backward place it used to be; it had already undergone a transformation.

Compared to the beginning, it was now unimaginably powerful.

One of the most important factors in determining the prosperity of a territory, the population, has grown from just over 40 people at the beginning to over a hundred thousand.

In addition, the number of troops was in the thousands, and the military strength of the territory has increased hundreds of times.

When it came to heroes, there were dozens of heroes in the white, green, and blue tiers, and there were even two heroes in the purple and red tiers, which made their top-tier combat strength quite impressive.

Having so many heroes means that the Crown of the Ocean’s army is highly autonomous. Even if they did not have Ji Chen’s command, they could still independently unleash strong combat power.

In the food storage category, thanks to Ji Chen’s numerous explorations and battles, they had gained considerable harvests and dividends. contemporary romance

At this point, the territory’s resource and food reserves were both in the tens of thousands. The food was so abundant that it not only met their own needs but could also be exported to the outside world.

The previously almost blank city defense works now include two powerful five-star defense buildings, as well as varying numbers of watchtowers and arrow towers, turning the territory into a hedgehog covered in thorns, causing harm to those who touch it.

The four distinct territory specialties had also made the Crown of the Ocean famous abroad.

It could be said that the Crown of the Ocean had gradually begun to live up to its name, becoming more and more prosperous and powerful, advancing toward the goals Ji Chen set at the beginning.

He was proud in his heart but not the least bit arrogant.

Getting closer to the initial goal didn’t mean they’d arrived there. To truly become what he envisions, there was still a long way to go.

Looking through the castle’s bay window, Ji Chen’s gaze turned toward the distant sea, murmuring to himself.

“After so long of development, the Crown of the Ocean currently has no obvious weaknesses, but the development dividends from the previous adventures will gradually disappear over time.

Therefore, the pace of external adventures cannot stop. Continuously bringing back and importing resources will keep this dividend going and allow the territory to develop more rapidly.

However, it seems that there are no immediate conquests or explorations to undertake. If we want to venture out, we must set our sights on more distant places.

It looks like putting the journey to the Northern Continent on the agenda is necessary.”

After thinking for a while, Ji Chen made a firm decision. His gaze sharpened as he summoned Wikis, Raymond, Irona, and other heroes with expertise in governance and daily life.

After receiving the summons, they quickly arrived, bowing respectfully and greeting, “Lord, good day.”

“No need for formalities; I’ve called you here because there’s something I need to discuss with you.”

Seeing the seriousness on Ji Chen’s face, they grew tense, their expressions becoming solemn.

“I plan to personally lead the fleet to the Northern Continent in a few days to initiate formal contact with the Elven race.

The Stormy Sea is quite a distance from the Northern Continent, so I won’t be in the Crown of the Ocean for a considerable period.

Therefore, during this time, the four of you must manage the territory diligently, and make sure no issues arise.”

As Ji Chen spoke, Wikis and the others immediately replied, “Lord, you can rest assured that we will do our utmost to manage the territory and wait for your return.”

Ji Chen nodded, knowing that these heroes were all of the Purple Rare Tier, and with them in charge, the territory should operate smoothly as usual.

“I trust in all of you. Wiius!”

“At your service.”

“During my absence, you will be the nominal highest commander in matters of governance. Even when I’m not here, you must ensure the orderly operation of the territory, including goods production, agriculture, personnel management, and so on.

Pay special attention to the White-scaled Merfolk in producing Merfabric and Leysha in brewing wine. Do your best to assist them.

These two things will be the next breakthrough opportunities for the Crown of the Ocean.”

“I will spare no effort,” Wiius replied once more. At the same time, he felt the increasing pressure on his shoulders as the population of the Crown of the Ocean continued to grow, and affairs in various aspects multiplied exponentially.

Although often feeling tired, his heart was filled with immense fulfillment and joy.

This was a kind of fulfillment and joy born from being needed by others.

Upon hearing the Lord’s instructions, his heart immediately resolved, swearing not to disappoint the Lord’s expectations.

“Irona, prepare a batch of potions; they might come in handy on this journey.”

Irona’s white ears perked up, and her tail wagged happily as she promptly agreed.

In fact, since coming to the Crown of the Ocean, she hadn’t stood out much among the several Purple Rare Tier heroes.

Her expertise in potion-making didn’t seem all that important to the Crown of the Ocean, which had always had a military advantage.

Most of the time, the Crown of the Ocean’s army charged forward like a horde of brutes, breaking the enemy’s ranks without the need for potions. So, her role was even smaller than that of the Blue Rare Tier hero, Daro.

Therefore, being able to be of use made her quite happy.

Ji Chen didn’t notice Irona’s thoughts as he turned to the next hero.

“Raymond, you will accompany me on this journey. Coordinate with Wiius and make preparations for sea voyages and trade.”

“Don’t worry, Lord, I’m experienced in this matter. I guarantee that 1 will handle it perfectly for you!”

With his round belly resembling that of a seven-month pregnant woman, Raymond promised confidently.

This sort of thing was as familiar to him as going home.

Seeing this, Ji Chen nodded with reassurance. He couldn’t help but tease Raymond when he noticed his increasingly rotund figure.

“You need to pay attention to your body. Don’t eat like a pig, or you won’t even be able to fit on the ship.”

“Lord, that’s so unfair! I haven’t eaten anything at all, and this belly just swelled up on its own. I didn’t want this,” Raymond exclaimed, looking wronged.

His pitiful appearance, combined with his somewhat comical figure, made the others burst into laughter.

This was just a small interlude.

Ji Chen continued to instruct the others until the sun began to set.

After dinner with everyone, he allowed them to disperse.

Before parting, Ji Chen asked Irona to stay behind.

He took out a bottle of potion from his backpack: Holy Healing Elixir, and handed it to her.

Irona looked at the golden liquid potion in her hand, her expression filled with surprise.

“Lord, where did you get this potion?”

“It’s called the Holy Healing Elixir. It doesn’t matter where 1 got it. What’s important is, can you reproduce this kind of potion?”

“Well…” Irona’s face showed some hesitation. “The life energy in this Holy Healing Elixir is exceptionally potent, almost on par with a 5-star potion. It’s already considered an advanced potion. The odds of reverse-engineering a potion of this caliber are extremely slim…”

She said it was extremely low, but in reality, it was nearly impossible.

If not, people could easily figure out how to make advanced potions, and they’d become common, right?

Although Ji Chen felt some regret, he didn’t feel disappointed. It was just a casual question.

“If that’s the case, then there’s nothing else. You should go back and rest early. If you lack materials for brewing potions, you can talk to Wiius.”

Irona nodded, and it seemed like she had thought of something. Her face flushed slightly, “Actually, I’m missing a special material, and only you, Lord, can provide it.”

Ji Chen was puzzled. Only he could provide it?

Then, he noticed Irona’s seductive expression and immediately grasped the situation, his expression turning serious.

“As a lord, I should do my best to fulfill my subordinates’ requests. If that’s the case, I will try my best to provide you with that material.”

“Thank you, Lord, for your generosity-”

The next morning, Irona left with a bag full of materials, feeling weak in the knees. Ji Chen, on the other hand, was pleased to have helped his subordinate and went about his business with a refreshed spirit..
