Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 1119 - 725, Water-converging Bead
Chapter 1119 -725, Water-converging Bead
Sea Tribe’s main island, Rainbow Pearl Island.
At the center of the island lay a lavishly built, massive palace.
At the top, a huge, round pearl shone brilliantly under the sunlight.
Inside the palace.
Upon a resplendent throne sat a majestic Sea King.
Broad-shouldered, with dense hair and beard, he wore a golden crown and golden scale armor.
His serpentine tail was thicker and stronger than those of the rest of the Sea Tribe.
The scales, thick and robust, resembled more the tail of a dragon.
[Deep Sea Turbulence – Sainsbury (Orange Tier 9 Hero)]
The ruler of the Sea Tribe.
A powerful, ambitious king.
“Your Majesty, the Sea King, the port of Giant Claw Island and several surrounding outposts have suffered a severe beating. The cost of repairs is basically tantamount to rebuilding,” a Sea Tribe member dressed in a blue brocade robe stepped forward and spoke loudly.
No sooner had this been said than many others joined in agreement.
“Yes, Your Majesty, this is the most substantial loss in decades; the Federation must pay a price for it.”
“These losses must all be counted on the Federation’s head.”
Today, a meeting of the Sea Tribe high command was called to address the Federation’s attack on Giant Claw Island.
The Federation Army had been repelled, and naturally, the losses would be charged to the Federation.
The Sea King nodded his huge head and said, “Have the losses been tallied?”
“Not yet, Hirosh has just returned to Giant Claw Island and is redeploying to prevent further aerial ship harassment by the Federation. It’s estimated that the loss report will be drawn up in the next two days,” said the blue brocade-robed Sea Tribe member.
“Good, too slow, tell him to submit the losses by tomorrow.”
This was somewhat hasty.
But it didn’t matter. Just inflate the numbers a bit; after all, it was the Federation’s account.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The matter of compensation reached a unanimous decision.
Next on the agenda was the issue of the Sea Tribe’s defense security.
Immediately, a Sea Tribe general came out, bowed, and said, “Your Majesty, the Sea King, this operation by the human Federation still brought a grave threat to our islands, and I believe we should significantly fortify the aerial defense of each island.”
The Sea King nodded in agreement with the decision.
Merely twenty-some aerial ships had already reached the island areas.
If the Federation were to have more aerial ships in the future, or other types of flying troops.
Then wouldn’t all the islands be in danger?
Even threatening this place.
“What do you all think we should do?” the Sea King continued.
“I suggest we first purchase anti-aircraft weaponry from the Dwarves to quickly increase our aerial defense capabilities.”
“We could also expand the breeding scale of the Sea Eagles.”
“Cooperate with species adept at flying, provide them with housing in exchange for aerial defense.”
Everyone present began to speak up.
They proposed their ideas and opinions.
There were only so many methods of anti-aircraft defense; it was just that the Sea Tribe had not prioritized it before.
Now, arranging for it wasn’t too late.
The crowd discussed noisily, while the Sea King intermittently interjected.
At this moment, a palace guard approached.
He spoke, “Your Majesty, the Sea King, a transmigrator claims to bring news from Giant Claw Island.”
Huh?
Everyone was taken aback.
The Sea Tribe did welcome transmigrators but only in a utilitarian sense.
Messages between islands were relayed through Sound-transmitting Shells; why utilize a transmigrator now?
“Let him in!”
Although doubting the veracity of the transmigrator’s claim, the Sea King still wanted to meet him.
Soon, a male transmigrator with a sneaky appearance walked in, his eyes roaming curiously about.
It seemed as if he was intrigued by his surroundings.

“What news do you have, speak!” the Sea King directly commanded.
The transmigrator opened the Book of Lords and said loudly, “I have a friend on Giant Claw Island. He just sent me some photos, saying the Undead Army has attacked the port of Giant Claw Island.”
“What?”
“Nonsense, how could the Undead appear here?”
“Who told you to fabricate lies?”
“Guards, take him down…”
Voices of reprimand shocked the transmigrator, and as the palace guards surged forward, he quickly said, “Your Majesty, I have the photos. Whether they are real, you’ll know with a glance.”
The Sea King gestured to stop the palace guard and turned to look at the transmigrator.
He said, “Bring them here!”
The transmigrator adjusted the photos and handed them to a guard, who presented them to the Sea King.
The Sea King took the photos with a puzzled look, and upon seeing herds of Bone Dragons, his expression abruptly darkened.
They truly were Undead.
Further, there were the castle’s crossbow-toting palace guards visible in the photos.
The photos were indeed real.
But why?
Why had the Undead appeared here?
And launched an attack against the Sea Tribe?
“What is the situation over there now?” the Sea King asked, staring at him intently, his expression grim.
The transmigrator answered at once, “They’ve lost contact. This kind of situation indicates that the transmigrator either died or the book has been devoured.”
The Sea King’s frown deepened as he commanded, “Use the Sound-transmitting Shell to inquire about the situation on Giant Claw Island.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Giant Claw City.
Dang dang dang!!
A loud and grating bell toll resonated throughout the entire city.
Before the Sea Tribe soldiers could assemble for defense,
flocks of Bone Dragons had already obscured the sky above the city.
Sweeps of Dragon Breath cloaked the city walls and defense towers.
The Sea Tribe, attempting to scale the walls with their devices, died in the Dragon Breath, turning into terrifying white skeletons.
All devices were destroyed.
More Skeleton Giant Bats, like dark clouds covering the sun.
They dropped a large number of thunderbolts with crackling sounds.
Boom!
The entire island trembled with the sounds of explosions.
With no Defense, the Bone Dragon group and Skeleton Giant Bats, with overwhelming strength, cleared all the soldiers attempting to defend.
After the explosions.
Everyone hid inside buildings, shivering with fear.
Not a single person dared to come out to challenge the Dragon Breath of the Bone Dragons.
Whoosh!
The sound of the air being torn apart rang out.
Beata transformed back into human form, and slowly walked into the central building.
“Who’s there, looking for…?”
As soon as she stepped through the doorway, two War Halberds swept towards her from both sides.
In an instant, Thunderbolt flashed, and the two Jiao guards who had struck fell to the ground, smoking.
No signs of life remained.
The Jiao guards and witches blocking the way changed their expressions in an instant.
They dared not approach further, instead retreating step by step following the silver-haired girl’s footsteps.
“Your leader has been captured, if you don’t want to die, just be obedient,” Beata said without stopping her feet, heading towards the center of the building.
No one dared to continue to seek death.
Under everyone’s gaze.
Beata went up to the second floor, and when she came back down, she was holding a golden chest in one arm, and on her back was a huge bundle.
Through the gap not completely closed in the bundle, shiny gemstones and Gold Coins could be seen.
Carrying both items, she swaggered out.
She summoned down a Bone Dragon, mounted its back, and soared away.
It took a long time before the Sea Tribe hiding in the houses dared to come out.
Looking at a city full of ruins, everyone’s expression was grim.
Soon…
Those who had avoided calamity by hiding in rooms, all rushed out.
Carrying their belongings, they hurried towards the city gates.
This place was no longer safe.
They needed to head to the coastal cities, where near the sea, they could take refuge in the waters in case of danger.
Rather than like now.
Where there was nowhere to run from the explosions.
…
Aboard the giant ship.
Fang Hao had crafted a large number of shackles.
Groups of captives, with shackles on, were being taken by Skeleton soldiers into the lower deck of the ship.
Roughly counting.
There were at least five or six thousand people.
Apart from the Sea Tribe, most were transmigrator soldiers.
All types of soldiers, disarmed, were imprisoned together.
And those transmigrators, having lost their Book of Lords, were no different from militiamen.
Even less so than ordinary soldiers.
With their scrawny arms and legs, many couldn’t even wield weapons.
The Demon Doll was commanding, separating the Sea Tribe and humans to be imprisoned.
With a thud, a golden chest fell from the sky.
Stopping just short of the toes, it landed on the deck.
Beata leaped down from the Bone Dragon’s back and said, “All defense devices have been destroyed, and the city has been bombed once over; there shouldn’t be any forces left.”
“Okay, you’ve had a hard time,” the Demon Doll dully took a step back, then said, “You go and rest first. After all these captives are locked up, we will head back.”
“What do you want with these captives?”
“The territory is short of people; we just need these folk,” Fang Hao explained casually.
Beata did not understand, muttering, “A broken city, short of people?”
She then walked away to the side.
The captives were successively pushed into the ship’s hold, occasionally the pleas for mercy from transmigrators were heard.
Fang Hao did not pay attention, ordering people to carry the two chests into the Stone Castle.
His true body, instead, went directly to open the golden chest.

Dazzling light flickered, covering the floor.
First was the [Battle Jiao White Steel Set], armor belonging to the ‘Jiao Guard’ set.
Tier 3 Defense, although only three pieces of equipment, but still had set attributes.

[Water-converging bead (purple)]
[Category: Item]
[Effect: Attracts the convergence of lakes and seas.]
(Description: An item made from magic pearls, often used for lake and sea water diversion.)
A purple-colored item.
From the description, it could attract water flow convergence, usable in lake construction.
If it also works for freshwater rivers, it could be used for farmland irrigation.
After looking through the first chest, Fang Hao moved to the second chest.
The first item was.
[Sea Eagle Nest: Vines 2800, Tough Wood 1200, Leather 850, Soft Leather 280.]
(Description: A special structure for raising Sea Eagles, within which the corresponding type of soldiers can be recruited.)
Sea Eagle Nest?
It was a special structure.
That being said, perhaps I could try building a Sea Eagle Nest on the ship.
