The coast of Panas.

As night fell once again, the orc army receded with the tide, leaving behind a field of corpses.

The alliance of elves and humans had once again repelled the orc’s attack, but Theodore, standing on the high ground, wore a concerned expression.

This was the third day of the orc’s offensive, and the intensity and brutality of the battle far exceeded his expectations. The orc’s relentless onslaught surprised him the most.

These savage beings, whom he had always seen as bloodthirsty, did not lose morale as he had anticipated. Instead, their desire to attack only grew stronger, showing no signs of slowing down or fearing casualties.

In terms of sheer willpower and battle fervor, the orcs were even more formidable than the elves.

What was even more remarkable was that the orc’s assault was not haphazard or disorganized. It displayed a remarkable degree of organization and order. Whether it was the selection and deployment of their troops or adjustments made based on the battlefield situation, it was evident that there was an outstanding commander behind their actions.

Theodore couldn’t help but feel that he had encountered a formidable opponent.

In reality, despite their defensive advantage, the alliance of elves and humans had suffered heavy losses under the orc’s relentless assault.

!!..

In just three days, they had lost over 20% of their forces, and the field hospitals in the rear were already overflowing with wounded soldiers. Priests tasked with guiding the souls of the fallen worked tirelessly, their mouths nearly aflame from reciting the rites.

Theodore believed that the orcs had suffered far more casualties than they had, but the alliance’s forces were significantly smaller than the orc’s, and there was no possibility of receiving reinforcements from the rear in the short term. They had to rely on the dwindling army of less than four hundred thousand to persist.

Among them, only about a hundred thousand elves had high combat effectiveness, while the rest were subpar human troops.

The orcs alone numbered at least three hundred thousand, not to mention the tens of thousands of demon troops.

Over the past few days, Theodore had also noticed that the orc commander was consciously consuming the alliance’s forces by continuously sending out mixed groups of orcs and demons for surprise attacks, causing them considerable trouble.

Theodore thought back to the Islander.

Two days ago, the Islander had suddenly left his troops behind and headed into the open sea. Those humans who had accompanied them had only received a reply from the Islander, stating that he was going into the sea to seek help from the sea clan.

However, seeking aid from the sea clan was no easy task.

The sea clan, protected by the natural barrier of the ocean, remained unaffected by external threats. No race could threaten them. Therefore, from the very beginning of this war, the sea clan had remained aloof, neither joining the orderly side nor assisting the evil faction. They simply watched from the sidelines.

Theodore remembered the sea clan’s envoy who had come to the land decades ago. They had an air of arrogance and looked down on all races, displaying an unwarranted sense of superiority.

Even more arrogant than the elves!

If it hadn’t really touched their interests, how could the sea clan have joined this war?

Theodore sighed. At this point, his only hope was that the Islander could truly bring help from the sea clan. Otherwise, judging by the current trend, the alliance would have a hard time holding out against the orc’s onslaught for another week.

A group of sea clan soldiers raced across the sea and arrived at a small island that was only tens of meters long and wide. When they saw the grim situation on the island, their faces were filled with anger.

This was the third sea clan supply depot that had been ravaged by demons.

At this moment, the island was littered with the corpses of over a thousand sea clan members. Blood had tainted the soil, and the supplies that had once been stockpiled here were nowhere to be found.

As soon as these sea clan soldiers arrived, they understood that the culprits behind all of this were the demons. The pervasive and malevolent aura that constantly emanated from the demons had not dissipated even now.

It was disgusting.

“Damn those demons, they really dare!” one of the sea clan soldiers gritted their teeth.

The other sea clan soldiers were also filled with anger. What was even more humiliating to them was that the demons made no attempt to conceal their actions. It was as if they wanted to tell them, “This is what we did, what can you do about it?”

This blatant act of provocation made the usually proud sea clan feel a deep sense of shame!

“We must report this situation to Her Majesty Theresa and seek vengeance!”

Heraklion.

A tall building near the center of the city, on its highest floor.

Ji Chen looked at the view outside the window, his expression shifting.

Observing the bustling streets of Heraklion from this height was quite enjoyable. Perhaps no player could imagine that in the depths of the ocean, there existed such a prosperous and magnificent underwater city.

Suddenly, he thought of a question. This instance was recreated by the gods using their divine power, and everything within it was historically accurate. This underwater city did exist in the real world.

So, could it be possible to find this city in the outside world?

With this thought, Ji Chen’s interest was piqued.

Heraklion was approximately one or two hundred miles away from the Panas coast. As long as he could determine the location of the Panas coast in the outside world, he could trace his way back here.

Only needing to confirm the approximate location and then mobilizing marine creatures for a carpet-style search, they would be able to find Heraklion tens of thousands of years in the future.

The wealth hidden within a lost sea clan city was enough to tempt anyone.

Ji Chen looked through the window and saw several sea clan teams entering the city from outside. They all hurried towards the temple in unison, and a smile slowly appeared on his face..
