The Magic Associations had different levels of influence. The highest Magic Association in the country was the Dongfang Oriental Magic Association. It was a national-level Magic Association, and above it was only the Asia Magic Association, based in Dubai.

The Donghai Magic Association was rather special. It was a subsidiary of the Asia Magic Association, not the Dongfang Oriental Magic Association. Strictly speaking, its level was on par with the Dongfang Oriental Magic Association, which explained why it had three advisors who were strong enough to fight Qiu Zi and Qiu Chi.

Mo Fan was not too familiar with these big shots, but judging from the situation at Jimei Bridge, the Sound Mage was indeed an experienced commander. The tasks the man had assigned to him and Zhang Xiaohou had been crucial in the battle.

It was not the commander’s fault for not discovering Qiu Zi’s existence earlier on. After all, the order to gather at Jimei Bridge was sent out not very long ago, yet two Great Ruler-level creatures had already shown up. It was already a miracle that the bridge was still standing!

“Brother Fan, I must go to the airport. The military has assigned us a mission. It sounds pretty urgent,” Zhang Xiaohou told him.

“Go ahead, Old Zhao and I will defend the bridge,” Mo Fan said warmly.

“Alright, let’s hope Brother Zhao can slay Qiu Chi. That way, the army of sea monsters is definitely going to lose their morale,” Zhang Xiaohou said with great anticipation.

Qiu Chi was most likely the commander of the army of sea monsters. Once it died, the sea monsters would definitely lack cohesion, making it easier for them to drive the sea monsters away.

“Slaying it is impossible, but beating the crap out of it until it flees into the ocean like a beaten dog shouldn’t be a problem!” Mo Fan agreed.

Creatures of their level surely had insane vitality and ways to escape from a fight, not to mention their outstanding strength. The Black Totem Snake had failed to kill the Silver Skyruler, even though the bird’s level was significantly lower, let alone Baxia, whose strength was merely about on par with Qiu Chi.

Unfortunately, the Black Totem Snake had been resting and recovering since the battle at the Parthenon Temple. Otherwise, if he could Summon the Black Totem Snake here to join hands with his brother, they would be able to smash Qiu Zi and Qiu Chi!

“Brother Fan, what level are those creatures?” Zhang Xiaohou could not help but ask.

A single storm had brought two Great Ruler-level sea monsters here, but everyone knew it was only the beginning of the crisis along the shoreline. More battles were going to take place from here on. The country had allocated most of its firepower to defend the coastline by building the breakwalls and headquarters cities.

What would the real battle look like?

Were there many more creatures like Qiu Chi and Qiu Zi in the ocean?

Or perhaps… there were creatures that were even stronger than them?

“Among the Ruler-level creatures, the strongest I’ve stumbled into are the two Gods of Death of the Ancient Greeks: Hayla and the Sphinx. Both of them are land creatures. If they were in the water, they might end up in a draw against these two, but if these sea monsters were on land, Hayla and the Sphinx were stronger without a doubt. Even the Black Totem Snake could take on these two sea monsters at the same time on land,” Mo Fan declared.

Qiu Chi and Qiu Zi were not Supreme Rulers. They were at most Great Rulers.

The sea monsters tripled in strength compared to land creatures when they were in the ocean, which was why they seemed oddly strong when fighting in the strait.

“What about Baxia?” Zhang Xiaohou was slightly confused.

“Baxia is injured… Old Zhao told me before that if Baxia is really the Black Totem Snake’s brother, his strength should be much crazier than what we’ve just seen. At least Qiu Zi and Qiu Chi wouldn’t have a chance against him without relying on a dirty trick like the parasites,” Mo Fan said.

“I see…” Zhang Xiaohou nodded.

“Major General Zhang, time is running out!” The captain’s face had darkened. She had no clue what the two were discussing.

“Oh, time to go! Take care, Brother Fan!” Zhang Xiaohou jumped onto the Hurricane Hawk’s back.

Mo Fan watched Zhang Xiaohou and the slender captain lift off into the sky. He shook his head, smiling, “Damn that monkey; the country has already assigned such a beautiful cold subordinate under him. Should he consider joining some organization, too…”

Mo Fan looked into the distance after Zhang Xiaohou left. He saw how cunning Qiu Chi was. It pretended like it was fleeing deeper into the ocean to have a proper showdown with Baxia, yet it had gathered the sea monsters to surround Baxia instead!

Qiu Chi did not stand a chance against Baxia in a duel, so it had decided to abuse their numbers.

However, Baxia was not intimidated in the slightest. He mercilessly crushed every sea monster that attacked him. The disgusting parasites might be a threat to him, but that did not mean he would treat the Viscera Hunters and the Scarlet Soaring Demons seriously! If he was cocky enough, he could just take a nap and let the Viscera Hunters and Scarlet Soaring Demons attack him. He would surrender right away if these creatures could even leave a wound on him!

Baxia was not afraid of the Viscera Hunters and Scarlet Soaring Demons. He swung his claws furiously, shattering the Viscera Hunters into pieces and smashing the Scarlet Soaring Demons. The sea monsters completely lost their courage after Baxia swung his claws around briefly.

After the Ocean Father had passed away, Baxia was basically the only Ruler left in the East China Sea. These Viscera Hunters that came from some unknown ocean only knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong. They quickly retreated and avoided contact with Baxia.

The Scarlet Soaring Demons were even worse. Their species had always stayed in the East China Sea, and they knew about Baxia in the first place. When the true ruler of this sea unleashed his wrath, they had no choice but to submit themselves to him!

Baxia stared down at the Scarlet Soaring Demons. His eyes were showing no mercy.

If it was any other species which was forced to submit themselves to Qiu Zi and Qiu Chi just to stay alive, Baxia would consider sparing their lives. However, the Scarlet Soaring Demons were not necessarily any better than the outsiders like the Viscera Hunters. They deserved to die!

Baxia exhaled a destructive breath across the surface of the sea!

The Scarlet Soaring Demons did not dare to move. The breath swept past them and erased them from the surface of the Earth. Even their souls had perished!

Qiu Chi was extremely mad after seeing that. The army of sea monsters had almost filled up the area, yet not many of the species dared to step forward to fight Baxia. They were all trembling in fear like cowards!
