The Boss Behind The Game
chapter-87

At that time, there were only a handful of guilds that were capable of building warships with special abilities. That wouldn’t be a problem to fight against the small sea monsters. However, they were evidently no match for a commander of the Sea King Navy like Big Hammer.

But Big Hammer had picked the wrong opponent this time. The Great Dragon Warship contained the strength of the entire Great Dragon Guild. Big Hammer cannoned himself into the warship twice and ended with an agonized grimace on his face.

He did not insist on fighting the Great Dragon Warship. Instead, he swam forward, ready to change target and continue his destruction.

However, he was unable to just leave as Chen Ziyu did not allow him. The dragon hands extended from the bottom of the ship and quickly seized him.

As Big Hammer struggled against the restraint, he noticed that the five mages on the warship began to transform and turned into Water Turrets.

In the ocean, the water element would be significantly empowered. Five enormous Water Dragons were blasted from the cannon before they charged toward Big Hammer.

Boom!

A huge wave was triggered. The attack had made Big Hammer light-headed. It was suffering from excruciating pain as blue-colored blood oozed from his wound.

Big Hammer was intimidated. Obviously, the power of the Great Dragon Guild was way stronger than any of the other players that he had seen before. The fear of death overtook him.

However, the power of the Great Dragon Guild had not been fully manifested yet. Two silhouettes leapt down from the Great Dragon Warship, encircled by the shadow of the Night Killer.

Shadow Step, which was the iconic skill of the Assassins, had been activated. The two figures turned into phantoms, and at the speed of light, charged toward Big Hammer. Simultaneously, two bloody blades were thrust into Big Hammer.

Big Hammer, who had long lost his fighting ability, was stunned as he watched the bloody blades penetrate his body. Then, his body was slowly dismembered into pieces.

After they withdrew the shadow of the Night Killer, the two assassins took a step on the water before they hopped onto the warship.

Xue Li said, “Boss, mission accomplished!”

Wang Damang replied, “They are so weak!”

Chen Ziyu chuckled before he added, “Go ahead and help the other players to destroy the rest of the Sea King Navy!”

They nodded before they took a glimpse at the battlefield.

At that moment, many warships had been destroyed. This was a common sight for players who often sailed the ocean. After all, a majority of the players’ warships had not been upgraded, and the default rigidity of the warship would not be sufficient for the ship to withstand the attack.

However, when they encountered creatures like the sea monsters, although the ship would be destroyed, they would usually hit the monsters directly. After all, It wouldn’t matter as their warships could repair themselves. Therefore, the players did not fear the damage.

When a warship was severely damaged and sank into the sea, it would be recalled by the channel. They would then pull out their weapons, and engage in naval warfare with the warriors of the Sea King Navy.

Soon, all the sea monsters were annihilated by the players. Then the players set their eyes on the warriors of the Sea King Navy.

With a greater number of members and better skills, the players rapidly slaughtered the warriors.

The naval battle continued for approximately an hour and ended when most of the Sea King Navy was killed and the remaining warriors chose to flee for their lives.

The sea had turned dark blue after the bloodshed.

The players had obtained absolute victory for this small-scale team battle.

……

At the Steel Hammer Army Hall in the Crystal Palace.

“Big Hammer died?” looking at the extinguished Soul Orb, Steel Hammer widened his eyes.

He had only one son. The death of Big Hammer infuriated Steel Hammer, bringing it to roar in grief.

“General… my condolences,” a humanlike creature in a tortoise shell rushed forward to comfort him.

“Condolences? What kind of condolences? Have you ever lost your son? Do you know how I feel!?”

The tortoise instantly fell silent. It had no idea how to answer the question.

“Kill Gui Liu’s son!” Steel Hammer, who had nowhere to vent its rage, shouted as he could not help but feel angry at the sight of the tortoise.

“After his death, relegate him as the Junior General of the Steel Hammer division of the Sea King Navy,” Steel Hammer added before he ended his sentence.

Gui Liu was dumbstruck by Steel Hammer’s words. He did not expect that his words of consolation would lead to the death of his own son.

“I feel better now. How does it feel to have your son dead?” Steel Hammer asked as he looked at the silent Gui Liu.

Gui Liu was rendered speechless.

After Steel Hammer had sent his order, Gui Liu led the tiger shark, who was assigned to execute the death penalty, to his house.

Upon his father’s return, Gui Liu’s son welcomed him gleefully.

“Dad, you’re home. Did you bring me any toys today?”

Gui Liu looked at his son, and tears flowed down his cheeks, “My child, I have brought you both good news and bad news. Which one do you want to know first?”

Gui Liu’s son pondered the question, “What’s the good news?”

“You have been installed as the Junior General of the Steel Hammer division of the Sea King Navy!”

Upon hearing this, Gui Liu’s son was wild with joy, “Then, what’s the bad news?”

“You have to be mentally prepared to receive the bad news!” Gui Liu shed tears of remorse as he stared at his son.

……

At the same time, a greater war had broken out on Fallen Fish Island.

20,000 players fought fiercely with the Gillfish Clan.

However, the players had the upper hand as they significantly outnumbered the Gillfish Clan, causing the clan to be only able to defend themselves bitterly.

As the members of the clan fell, the elder of the Gillfish Clan stood at the center of the village. He trembled as he murmured under his breath.

He did not know if his clan was cursed by the Sea God, causing his clan to end up being targeted by such a horrifying race.

The killings continued. The ground was blanketed by the corpses of the Gillfish Clan members, while the fallen players turned into dark smoke and were sent back to the channel. This put great pressure on the Gillfish Clan as there seemed to be a constant decrease in their number, while the number of their opponents remained the same.

The trumpet was constantly blowing in the fishing village. The other tribes of Gillfish Clans continued to send help. However, the Gillfish Clan was still weaker and had a lesser number compared to the players’ enormous troops.

Eventually, the Gillfish Clan was forced to retreat to the fishing village.

“Kill them and bring out their cauldron. Don’t they love cooking? Throw them into the cauldron today. Steam, fry, and cook them all,” the resentful Fatty yelled in excitement.

Seven heard this and was stunned, “They are all humanlike. Are you sure you will have the appetite to eat them?”

Fatty rolled his eyes, “I just want them to experience the despair that we went through.”

After hearing this, the players recalled being controlled by the Gillfish Clan. The memory had brought a hint of fear to their eyes.

The time for revenge had finally come, and it was their turn to take charge this time!
