Sometimes centuries of accumulation can return to square one in an instant.
The destruction of this fleet also meant that the Alliance Navy had completely lost hope, extinguished along with its spark.
They still possessed technology and resources, but it was meaningless.
According to the current trend, before the Eternal Knight Empire annihilated the Hundred Kingdoms Alliance, they would not be able to reassemble a strong navy.
The history of the Hundred Kingdoms Alliance's navy ended here.
After annihilating the Alliance Navy, the Eternal Knight Empire had no more scruples and directly surged toward the four corners of the northern continent, occupying the coastline, establishing camp defenses and preparing for subsequent offensives.
Meanwhile, a massive army was also assembled, being transported to this location on warships.
Another new battlefield was opened.
Meanwhile, in another sea area, deep in the ocean, the capital of the Naga Kingdom, the city of fear, a vast and spectacular underwater city, this city seems to be a masterpiece of nature, harmoniously coexisting with the surrounding marine environment, exuding enchanting charm.
The main structure of the city is composed of enormous corals, which have become exceptionally strong after billions of years of growth.
They intertwine to form massive domes and towers, resembling art pieces meticulously sculpted by nature.
Sunlight filters through the sea surface, casting colorful reflections on these corals, resembling a dreamlike castle palace.
To be honest, the style of this city does not quite match that of a Naga kingdom, as their methods are too brutal.
The combination of the two styles is as odd as a 2- m tall, muscular man enjoying playing with dolls.
As the royal city, the construction here is relatively complete with a magnificent statue standing in the center of the city.
It represents the ultimate faith of the Naga kingdom, the fear of the ancestral god.
As a subsidiary force of the eternal knight empire, the Naga kingdom also has a tradition of recording history.
They're well aware of how today's situation came to be.
Looking back, the Naga were just an ordinary marine race.
Not weak, but not particularly strong either.
The fishermen were the lowest marine race, existing merely as slaves and food.
Then one day, they received a summon from a great being and were allowed to enter the divine realm to worship the great deity.
There all beings underwent a trial, a life and death test.
In that divine trial, the timid perished while the brave survived.
The warriors who lived through it all transformed and grew stronger.
They were then sent to the seam mouth to establish what would become the Naga kingdom, the Naga tribe.
Subsequently, they embarked on conquests east and north, annihilating countless marine tribes, leading to their current scale.
Because of this, the Naga kingdom both rever and fears that deity.
Naga figures are seen everywhere on the streets, each exuding a powerful aura.
As a royal city, there's a clearer hierarchy here.
Ordinary marine races do not even qualify to enter.
Only those brave marine races recognized by the temple and who have passed the trials are qualified to step into the royal city.
Inside a gigantic palace, dozens of tall figures have gathered of various races, including both Naga and fishmen, all generally over 10 meters tall, covered in scales muscular, with crimson eyes filled with brutality and slaughter.
At the highest position sits a massive Naga nearly 20 m tall whose presence overwhelms all others present.
Although he's also a ninth tier saint realm, he is nearing the peak.
He is the king of a Naga kingdom and also the first lord of the Naga.
The system implemented in the Naga kingdom is quite strange.
Initially they followed the eternal knight empire system but later found it unsuitable.
The marine races mentality does not allow them to manage so many subjects.
Thus, with the help of the empire's think tank, and after many experiments, they ultimately adopted a rather peculiar system, the Lord system, the Naga kingdom is divided into multiple territories, each ruled by a ninth tier Saint Realm powerhouse, who becomes the lord of that territory, even without needing to be accountable to the kingdom.
This significantly alleviated their management pressure.
Of course, this approach has its pros and cons.
While it is indeed easier to manage and develop after decentralization, it also makes it easy to be defeated one by one when facing challenges.
There may even arise situations where both sides do not recognize each other, leading to the complete division of the Naga kingdom.
Under normal circumstances, such a possibility exists.
After all, in a highly autonomous situation, the sovereignty of the territory belongs to the Lord unrelated to the kingdom.
Therefore, how could the subjects within the territory recognize the kingdom? Fortunately, the situation of a Naga kingdom is not normal.
They do not rely on the kingdom to unify their will.
Faith is the fundamental element.
The kingdom is merely a facade.
Unlike the Empire's citizens who combined the Empire with the deity, the Naga Kingdom's founding intention was merely to imitate the eternal knight Empire.
This force can be a kingdom, a territory, or even an alliance.
It can be whatever you like.
But one thing cannot change.
The faith in the deity.
All those who do not believe in the ancestral god of fear are enemies.
As long as one believes in the ancestral god, it does not matter what territory subjects or what race they are.
They will all be considered part of their own.
Perhaps the classes are different, but the allegiance to the force is the same.
Mocha, why have you summoned us? A Naga Lord below inquired, showing no particular respect for the Naga king above.
This is quite normal.
After all, they're all ninth tier, all lords, all naga.
And strictly speaking, there is no distinction between superior and subordinate.
The tall figure above glanced at him.
The naga lord showed no fear and maintained eye contact.
Humph.
The Naga king withdrew his gaze, snorted lightly, and scanned the gathered crowd below.
Noticing everyone had arrived, he began to speak.
The ancestral god has delivered a divine decree.
The time has come for us to embark on a campaign to unify the seas of this dimension.
The various marine races below were takenback, then instantly erupted in excitement.
The campaign has finally arrived.
Haha.
V.
War.
V.
We shall sacrifice blood to our god.
The great sharkort, the dominant whale alliance, after waiting so many years, can finally take action.
Haha.
Slaughter them all.
Let our lord's divine light cover the entire ocean.
And let all marine races bow beneath the feet of the deity.
The marine races do not resist war.
In fact, they're quite delighted.
For only through war can they feel the blood boiling within them.
And only through life can they offer sacrifices to the deity, pleasing the deity.
The Naga king<unk>s words were not up for discussion, but rather a notification and communication.
Silence.
Now that you've had a moment to calm down after your excitement.
I will continue.
The Naga king said, "I know you are all very excited, but now everyone needs to quiet down.
We will now arrange the tasks.
Each lord will be responsible for their own area and logistics must be well insured.
Chapter 194.
The three overlords of the sea regarding the war.
The attitude of the various lords of the Naga kingdom is quite unified.
They fully support it and are willing to pay any price to proceed.
Sushingu did not assign them any grand strategies.
He merely issued a divine decree informing them that it was time to unify the seas.
He is no longer the person he once was.
