Fang Heng felt that the situation outside was very abnormal.

If the Island of the Sea God were to be attacked by a tide of sea monsters, more guards should be deployed along the coast to prevent the sea monsters from attacking. Why deploy so many guards here?
It was more like restricting their movements and separating them from Howell's group on the merchant ship.

Fang Heng thought for a moment and said, "I understand. Leave it to me. You all stay here, I'll go check the situation."

"But……"

Cao Ge hesitated.

He wanted to say that he had tolerated such a big conflict with the Lehman Empire before, so wouldn't it be a waste of all his previous efforts to start another conflict now?

Huh?
Cao Ge's pupils contracted as he watched Fang Heng's figure vanish rapidly before his eyes.

Gone?
Cao Ge's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but look at Meng Qingyu beside him.

Meng Qingyu's face was full of respect.

joke!

With Your Majesty's strength, wouldn't it be easy for you to leave without alerting the guards?
Fang Heng entered his soul form and left the house directly through the living room.

The guards stationed outside the rest area on Poseidon's Island had been alerted by the priest and had been reinforced to keep a close watch on Fang Heng and his group, preventing them from leaving suddenly.

Unfortunately, the guards couldn't see through the soul's abilities.

"Hmph, let's see what tricks you're up to."

Fang Heng snorted coldly in his heart, maintained his soul form as he passed by the guards, and sped towards the harbor.

The Island of the Sea God is not large.

Fang Heng quickly arrived at the port where the merchant ship was docked and hovered in mid-air to observe.

They really did encounter a sea monster attack.

The first wave of sea monsters has already begun to erode the coastline.

The sea monsters are not of high level; most are molluscs or octopuses that move slowly on the beach. They come ashore with each wave of the tide and attack the guardian team at the edge of the island.

Howell and his crew had disembarked and were now on the shore with sailors from other ships, cleaning up the sea monster.

Once out of the water, the sea monster's attributes are greatly reduced, making it almost impossible for it to cause any real harm to the sailors.

It seems that withstanding the attack shouldn't be a problem at the moment.

Fang Heng looked up again in the direction of the merchant ship.

Merchant ships have activated their defensive barriers.

Perhaps because there was no one on the merchant ship, the sea monsters were not very aggressive towards it, and most of them rushed towards the guards on the shore.

Huh?
Fang Heng frowned slightly.

He sensed several unfamiliar presences inside the ship.

Is someone inside?
who is it?

Fang Heng's right eye spun rapidly.

With the help of the Divine Eye, his vision penetrated the ship and he immediately saw more than ten people gathered in the lower deck, searching for something.

People from the Lehman Empire?

Fang Heng could tell what the people were wearing at a glance.

In addition to the soldiers of the Lehman Empire, there were also two priests from the Island of the Sea God.

Oh?
Is he here too?

Fang Heng noticed Reginald in the crowd.

Only after landing on the island did he learn that Reginald, the third prince of the Lehman Empire, was also on the ship.

No wonder Poseidon's Island was so anxious to threaten them to stop the attack.

strangeness.

What are they looking for inside the ship?
Fang Heng was somewhat confused.

He is now certain that the sea monster is the result of a joint operation between Reginald and the Island of the Sea God.

But what is the purpose?
It's just an ordinary ship. Why did they go to such great lengths to stir up a sea monster tide and lure their people out of the ship just to enter it and search for something?
There's clearly nothing inside...

Let's go in and take a look!

Whoosh!
Fang Heng remained in his undead form and quickly flew towards the merchant ship, entering it.

More than a dozen of Reginald's elite bodyguards had sneaked into the merchant ship during the chaos of the sea monster tide not long ago, and were now carefully searching the ship's bottom hold.

Reginald glanced at the two priests from the Isle of Seagod who were accompanying him and asked coldly, "Where are the things?"

"Sorry, we can't sense it."

The two priests shook their heads repeatedly.

Deities?

nonexistent.

Not even a trace of divine power could be sensed.

"Why! When that group of people disembarked, you also said you couldn't sense the power of the deity statue, and that the deity statue must still be on the ship!"

Reginald's temples throbbed, and he felt a surge of anger rising within him.

So much effort was spent, and in the end, nothing was found?
Just kidding!
Reginald cursed, "You can't sense this or that? What are you all doing here? A bunch of useless trash!"

The two elite priests from the Island of the Sea God immediately looked rather embarrassed.

Because of Reginald's identity, the two chose to remain silent.

One of the guards frowned and asked, "Could it be that Howell took the deity statue with him when he left the cabin?"

“No,” one of the older priests said. “I watched Howell and his party when they left the ship, and I didn’t see them carrying anything. I think they probably used some kind of special container to shield the power of the divine statue.”

"Then it must still be in the cabin! I refuse to believe they could hide such a huge statue of a deity anywhere! Search it!"

Reginald turned to his men and barked, "Find this place upside down!"

"Yes!"

The imperial guards began searching every corner of the ship for the statue of the deity, but they found nothing. At that moment, Fang Heng was floating not far from them in his soul form.

Fang Heng overheard everyone's conversation clearly.

He was a little confused too.

Deities?

What deity?
Deities obtained from the Empire?

That thing is unusable.

Moreover, because assembling it was too troublesome and he was in a hurry to leave, he had no intention of assembling it at all, and it is still in the Imperial Merchant Guild's port warehouse...

So how did they determine that the deity was on the ship?

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.

However, this did remind him.

“Statue of a deity…”

Fang Heng muttered to himself.

During the day, he had become somewhat interested in the deity on the Reginald ship.

That thing was of a higher rank than the deity he obtained from the Oz Empire.

Unfortunately, the Island of the Sea God intervened at that time, and he was unable to seize it.

What a coincidence!

While the sea monster is causing chaos, we can go and check on the condition of the deity statues.

It's likely that the deities on Reginald's ship were also obtained from the Isle of the Sea God.

Let's test the quality of the deities on the Island of the Sea God first, and see if they can withstand the erosion of hellish power.

Fang Heng, too lazy to continue paying attention to Reginald and the others, left the cabin in his soul form and quickly flew towards the southern port where Reginald was located.

Soon, in his soul form, Fang Heng arrived at the south side of the Sea God's Island.

This part of the sea is calm, with only a few scattered islands of the Sea God guarding the coast.

The sea monster's attacks were all concentrated on the location where Howell and his men were.

really.

The sea monster's attacks were manipulated by humans. (End of Chapter)
