Ji Chen circled around the Sky Guardian, carefully observing it, and then stored it back into the Space Storage Sphere.

Returning to the underground space, Ji Chen asked, “Any other discoveries?”

Benbo, who stayed behind to search, shook his head, “My Lord, there haven’t been any other discoveries since you left.”

Ji Chen felt a tinge of disappointment but quickly realized that he had already gained a lot from this expedition. It would be greedy to expect even more.

Back on the surface, he called all the Ruins Guardians to gather by the lakeside.

Arranging them in neat rows of five, he packed them into the Space Storage Sphere, one row at a time, as if packaging them for transport.

After over an hour, all eight hundred Ruins Guardians were safely stored.

Next were the Ocean Guardians residing in the lake.

Again, he organized them into rows of five, but with their numbers reaching two thousand, it took him three hours to store them all.

With the mission accomplished, Ji Chen gestured with a wave of his hand, leading the entire army back to the opening of the cliff.

As soon as everyone stepped into the range of the gorge, the rocky wall behind them rumbled shut.

Ji Chen didn’t linger and immediately led the army back through the gorge, retracing their steps.

Along the way, he pondered the rewards of this expedition.

Firstly, his Tidal Lord profession had evolved into Tidal Dominator, granting him a domain ace skill and significant improvements to all his abilities.

Secondly, he obtained a total of eleven Advanced Crystals. This meant that the Crown of the Ocean would give rise to ten Tier-4 military recruitment camps and one Tier-5 military recruitment camp, upgrading the quality of his troops by a significant margin.

Then, Benbo successfully evolved, becoming the third Purple-Rare Tier combat hero of the Crown of the Ocean and gaining the opportunity to transform into a dragon.

Including Wilus, the internal affairs hero, Ji Chen now possessed four

Purple-Rare Tier heroes, a number that others could only dream of achieving through arduous efforts.

Lastly, there were nearly three thousand Alchemical Guardians and a Space Storage Sphere. This force of guardians would fortify the entire New Moon Islands, creating a tightly-knit defense across land, sea, and air, ensuring no enemy could breach their defenses.

Just as Ji Chen delighted in the bountiful rewards of this expedition, the crowded gorge reached its end, revealing a dense forest ahead.

The lush greenery uplifted everyone’s mood, bringing Ji Chen’s thoughts back to the present.

He wondered how l_Love_Black_Stockings was doing now. She should still be in the process of capturing the resource points from those four players, right?

After returning, he also planned to utilize her territory temporarily, gathering the players from King Kong Island for a trading event to purchase Dragon Blood Murlocs, Naga Warriors, and Pure Water Sea Pixies—core units for the military recruitment camps.

At the same time, he intended to inquire about the locations of the territories belonging to the three players who had been eliminated by the Ruins Guardians, as well as absorb their resources and population.

Just as he contemplated these matters, his Omniscience Map, which had returned to normal, displayed four to five hundred red dots scattered along his return path.

Judging by the distribution of the red dots, it wasn’t a roaming monster group but rather intelligent beings with order and organization.

Observing this, Ji Chen instructed the army to stay put while he, accompanied by the three heroes, went to investigate.

They passed through the dense foliage until an open space emerged before them—a crude campsite.

Wooden stakes unevenly erected around the perimeter served as makeshift walls, and inside stood dozens of tents made from wood and tattered cloth, exuding a rugged and barbaric aura.

Ji Chen glanced left and right, confirming that he hadn’t taken the wrong path. This was the same route he had taken before.

If that was the case, then this shabby camp must have been established after he passed through here.

Based on the architectural style, it resembled a certain race…

Just as Ji Chen entertained these thoughts, two burly figures emerged from the campsite.

Anyone familiar with them would immediately recognize them as half-orcs upon seeing their towering two-meter-tall frames.

Ji Chen observed these half-orcs, piquing his curiosity. In the chat channels and forums, discussions about half-orcs were common, but this was his first encounter with them in reality.

Human-like facial features with fangs protruding from their mouths, chests bearing numerous scars, and bodies covered in dense fur—holding crude and brutal spiked clubs in their hands, exuding a wild, rugged, and violent aura.

It perfectly matched his preconceived image of half-orcs.

But were these half-orcs simply carefree, or did they have enough confidence in their own strength?

The biggest question, however, was: How did half-orcs end up here?

After a moment’s thought, Ji Chen decided to assess the capabilities of these half-orcs.

Taking cover behind a tree, he squinted his eyes and observed.
