Chapter 297: Hailuga Kingdom

It was not a dark night on the sea, as the starry sky lightened the lands. However, the dawn mist blurred the sea, obstructing visibility. Covered by the night, mermaids landed secretly. The noise of fighting and killing filled the air on the island.

One after another, battleships of the Kingdom of Mermaids closed on the Alast Isles through the mist. Peripheral stations and hidden posts were destroyed one by one.

They knew the terrain and the position of every station and post. It seemed they calculated the weather, the time, the location and the plan perfectly ahead, and sneaked into the Barast Isles silently.

The alchemy sea monster Hellem who was hiding under the sea gave a terrifying roar at sunrise. The howling sounded like horns played from the bottom of the sea. Soldiers stationed in the City of Adventures got up. Crowds gathered on the decks of the ships ported in the bay. They looked around with eyes half open.

“What’s going on?”

“What was that sound?”

“It’s the mad warlock’s monster!”

“That damn monster has gone crazy again!”

“It’s probably gone mad, just like its master!”

At the same time, one-eyed mad warlock Isaac walked out his castle hastily. Johnathan put on his cloths and walked to him, said, “What? What’s going on?”

Many loyal subordinates followed Isaac. Isaac looked to the distant bay, shook his head and said, “Something is wrong. Something is wrong with Hellem. The sound is different. What has happened this time? Damn, I need to have a look!”

At this moment, Isaac sensed something was wrong, turned around and looked to Johnathan, and saw a blue stone marble exploded. Instantly, the freezing air spread across dozens of meters, forming a pillar-sized ice crystal, and made the castle burst into ruins. The castle was frozen into a world of ice, and Isaac was frozen in it as well.

“The Tear of the Sea from the Kingdom of Mermaids! Damn you, you traitor, traitor!”

Isaac struggled in ice, as he felt both his body and soul were getting frozen gradually. The moment he was hit by this special witchcraft item created by the mermaid queen Gina, he was left with no hope.

Jonathan and the loyal subordinates of Isaac made a move at the same time. A giant fire ball crashed to the frozen Isaac. Immediately the one-eyed warlock Isaac disintegrated, the level three alchemy warlock was ripped into pieces.

Johnathan raise the badge of Marina Bossa and said, “In the name of Lady Marina, kill the traitor of alchemy warlocks, Isaac!”

All alchemy warlocks saluted and said, “Your order is above all!”

Johnathan walked into the cracked ice, retrieved a silver metal sphere from the frozen corpse pieces of Isaac. The sphere had intricate patterns carved on it, giving out waves of mind power.

“The Contract with Hellem! Finally!”

Jonathan held onto this silver metal ball with great excitement. Part of the soul of the alchemy sea monster Hellem was sealed within, along with the soul contract of Hellem and Isaac. With the sphere, one could control Hellem.

Johnathan held high the Contract with Hellem. The carvings lighted up, giving out strong waves of mind power. A terrifying roar rose from the bay outside.

“Roar!”

In the bottom of the sea outside the port, waves were flipped and raised to the sky. Hellem had lost control and fell into madness. Giant tentacles crawled to the surface of the sea from the deep bottom like pillars, ripping many ships anchored off the bay into pieces.

Waves rose dozens of meters high, crashing into cliffs. Glaring lights beamed from the bottom of the sea, lighted the sky. The sound of explosion echoed. Countless battleships ported din the bay burst into flames instantly.

The entire bay turned into a sea of fires. Most people on the ships burned to death immediately. The remaining few who luckily escaped death fell into water, struggled to swim to land.

A giant metal-skinned head rose from the bottom of the sea. The eye balls rolled up and down, beaming lights from within. The entire sea bubbled and boiled. All those struggling in the sea died one after another, sinking into the deep water.

“Oh my god! What on earth is happening? Has it gone crazy?” Pirates and soldiers in the City of Adventures all stood aghast, watching the bay and port turning into a sea of fires, looking pale and uneasy.

Fleets of the Sean City-State Alliance, the Kingdom of Mara and the Kingdom of Rosa d’Oro were destroyed on the sea. The rest of the ships set off immediately to escape. However, red lights glimmered in the distant fog.

“What light is that? What’s ahead us?”, said the captain of the lead ship. He raised his monocular and looked to the fog. He shouted, “Damn! Cannons! It’s the fleet of the Kingdom of Mermaids!”

The huge fleet fired unstop. Lights and fires shone. Many human battleships were hit. Rows of cannons were fired, taken the human allied force by surprise.

At the same time, the alchemy sea monster Hellem attacked them from behind. The humans were enveloped inside the bay.

“It’s the Queen! Mermaid queen Gina is also here!”

On a gigantic four-decked alchemy ship, the ram was a mermaid statue holding high the scepter. It’s the Queen of the Kingdom of Mermaids, the royal ship of the mermaid queen Gina. Many saints recognized the Queen as soon as it cut through the dense fog.

Massive number of children of the sea and priests of the God of the Sea covered the surface of the sea. Even the mermaid queen Gina had come in person. The fleet of the allied force was now completely in despair.

“What the hell is happening?”

“Where’s Isaac? Why did his monster go crazy all the sudden?”

“How did the fleet of the Kingdom of Mermaids come this far without been spotted? Are our posts and stations nothing but pigs?”

Commanding officers and captains did not see this coming at all. They all started to cursing Isaac furiously. However, it was futile, and nothing could save them now. Under the attack of the fleet of the Kingdom of Mermaids, priests of the God of the Sea, as well as the alchemy sea monster Hellem controlled by Johnathan, they all fell into fear and despair.

—

Under the attack of a level-four mermaid priest, a level-four alchemy sea monster and the huge fleet of the Kingdom of Mermaids, the fleeted was cornered inside the Barast Bay, hit and damaged. Al last, they had no other option but surrender to Johnathan and the Kingdom of Mermaids.

As the agreement before, Johnathan took the Barast Isles, accepted many human marines and a few fleets, and integrated with the remaining force of the Adventurer Business Alliance on the Barast Island. Johnathan signed a Covenant with the Kingdom of Mermaids afterwards regardless, betrayed all humans and his own country and joined force with the Kingdom of Mermaids.

The Kingdom of Mermaids hit the Sea Alliance fleet hard. The Sea Alliance had lost their bridgehead, the Barast Isles. They could no longer port or get supplied on the sea in long-distanced wars.

The situation took a sudden turn. The Kingdom of Mermaids started to recover their power on the sea, reopened channels to the Yala Continent and the Kingdom of Orcs. A massive amount of fleets of the Kingdom of Mermaids emerged on the sea, subdued the human forces on the sea and limited the scope of human’s activities. Johnathan made a huge fortune from the war and continued to profit from it.

Johnathan’s power grew in the war of the Kingdom of Mermaids and the human kingdoms. With a massive amount of alchemy warlocks, pirates, adventurers, mercenaries, slaves and refugees, cities after cities started to form and establish on the Barast Isles, utilizing the power of the Brown family and the largest shipbuilding factory.

The first true sea kingdom rose from sea trades and the war between mermaids and humans, the Hailuga Kingdom.

It was a newly formed island kingdom. Its founder, king Johnathan Brown was a controversial man. Both Sean City-State Alliance and the alchemy warlocks had attacked Johnathan Brown’s shameless conduct on newspapers and official reports. He was called the traitor and the betrayer of the human kingdoms. Moreover, Marina Bossa announced that Johnathan Brown was no longer her student, or the student of Akkad Alchemy College.

The Sean City-State Alliance searched the entire country for the Brown family or any one related to Johnathan to show their rage. However, Johnathan was prepared and had already moved everything, indicating premeditation. The three kingdoms of the Sea Alliance declared war on the Hailuga Kingdom continuously in the following decades. Even time could not lessen their hatred.

Some consider Johnathan a shameless speculator who would do anything to achieve his goal. Some on the other hand, consider the tactful move of Johnathan Brown, the king of the Hailuga Kingdom, to profit from the conflict between the three kingdoms and the Kingdom of Mermaids highly commendable.

Transforming from an adventurer to a kingdom with his own kingdom, Johnathan had become the idol of many adventurers, as well as their goal. Moreover, Johnathan started the life he had long wanted.
