After quickly reading through the report on the Star Empire, Su Nan then picked up the report from the Starlight Academy.

The first one was about the magic ship.

The development of the magic ship was still an order Su Nan had personally given.

It was not just because of the need to develop the Rainbow Sea, but also considering that in the future when the Star League conquered other planes, there was a high probability of encountering naval battles, so it was necessary to make preparations in advance.

“The three-level classification system is sufficient in the Starlight Continent.”

The Starlight Academy is currently still tackling the third-level magic ship. It will still take a long time to actually build it and reach the stage where it can be practically applied.

Although it is possible to create a third-level magic ship through synthesis, Su Nan does not intend to do so.

After all, the cost of synthesis is far higher than that of artificial manufacturing.

If a naval army is to be built, artificial manufacturing is obviously better.

Let the academy do its own research, he can’t always do everything personally.

After reading the Starlight Academy’s report, the only thing left was the Star League’s report.

It was mainly about the development progress of the Rainbow Sea.

However, after reading the contents of the report, Su Nan couldn’t help but show a strange expression on his face.

“Divine Revelation?”

Su Nan looked thoughtful.

The plane barrier hasn’t recovered yet, so it’s impossible for the gods outside to reach into the Starlight Continent.

The previous Spider Goddess was a special case. She used the Dark Forest’s Darkwood to penetrate the Starlight Continent.

Could there be another ‘Darkwood’ in the Rainbow Sea?

This possibility exists, but it’s not high.

In comparison, Su Nan was more convinced that the so-called Divine Revelation was just the disguise of a certain creature, using it to manipulate the Siren Sea Elves to achieve a certain goal.

“Interesting.”

Su Nan’s eyes flickered.

Starfall City is located in the Rainbow Sea, and yet the Rainbow City has experienced the so-called Divine Revelation.

It’s hard for him not to connect the two.

But whether or not the two are connected, whether or not it’s a real god, he can’t just let them run wild on his turf.

To find out the truth, all he has to do is catch the Siren Sea Elf leader and interrogate them.

Having decided on his course of action, Su Nan directly approved the report and sent someone to relay it to Rainbow Bay.

Just as Su Nan’s order was on its way to Rainbow Bay, the war between the Star League and the Ocean Races broke out.

On the same day that the magic ships and octopus puppets arrived at Rainbow Bay, Sherman and the others led the reinforcements to the artificial islands.

Due to the fact that the three artificial islands were far apart from each other, after some discussion, everyone decided to first occupy one of the fastest-progressing islands, called Coral Island.

The name came from the colorful coral reef located four or five kilometers away from the island.

Colorful coral is a rare material that can be used to make potions.

This is also the main reason why the Star League chose this location for their land reclamation project, making it convenient to collect colorful coral.

In the Star League’s plan, the area of Coral Island is expected to be 1,500 to 2,000 square kilometers.

However, due to the interference of the Deep Sea Naga and the Siren Sea Elves, Coral Island has only been filled to less than 200 square kilometers.

Everyone agreed to complete the construction of Coral Island first, then begin building the other two islands.

Once Coral Island is completed, the golem army can move in and establish complete defensive facilities.

By then, even if the Deep Sea Naga and Siren Sea Elves come to attack again, they won’t be able to achieve anything.

After all, the number of supporting magic ships is limited. It’s better to concentrate troops on one island rather than scattering them around three different islands.

This way, they won’t be forced to defend passively when facing enemy attacks, and they can completely launch counterattacks.

The facts proved that their consideration was not wrong.

On the fifth day after the reinforcements entered Coral Island, the Deep Sea Naga and Siren Sea Elves attacked again.

The five first-level magic ships patrolling the waters around Coral Island immediately discovered the approaching sea monsters.

There was no so-called humanitarian warning in advance. When the attacking sea monsters crossed the warning line, the five magic ships opened fire simultaneously.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

More than thirty magic energy cannon beams shot out in a torrential downpour, splitting the air and hitting the underwater sea monsters, penetrating their heads.

Magic energy cannons are genuine magic energy technology products developed by the Starlight Academy. They are powered by magic stones and have extremely powerful destructive force.

In an instant, dozens of sea monster corpses appeared underwater, dyeing the surrounding seawater red with blood.

At the same time, a piercing alarm sounded through the air above Coral Island.

Sherman and the others on the island rushed out immediately. When they reached the coastline, the five first-level magic ships had already wiped out the attacking sea monsters.

“It’s the Siren Sea Elves. They always control sea monsters to attack first.” Andrea said with a solemn expression.

As if to confirm her words, a clear conch horn sound suddenly came from afar, faintly mixed with beautiful singing.

Dozens of huge humpback whales suddenly broke through the surface of the water and emerged in front of everyone’s sight.

And on their broad backs, were hundreds of Siren Sea Elves.

More Siren Sea Elves, armed with tridents, rode head-hunting sharks from behind the humpback whales, eyeing the magic ships with menacing looks.

At the same time, a piercing alarm sounded from the other side of the island.

“It must be the Deep Sea Naga. They often attack from different directions, separated from the Siren Sea Elves, increasing the pressure on our defense of the island.” Andrea’s face was heavy.

Flemming clicked his tongue and said, “They’re clearly hostile enemies, yet they can unite against us.”

“After all, we are outsiders.” Sherman’s face was calm, looking at Corey, “Corey, you and Flemming are responsible for dealing with the Deep Sea Naga, alright?”

Corey nodded silently, turning around without hesitation and flying towards the other side of the island.

Flemming quickly followed.

Watching the two leave, Sherman retracted his gaze and looked out at the Siren Sea Elves charging towards the island, taking a deep breath and straightening his expression.

“Let’s do it. Beat these guys up once and for all, make them afraid to attack Coral Island again easily, that way we’ll be less busy in the future.”

Atil and Tagana nodded expressionlessly.

The three of them instantly lit up with dazzling magical light and rushed towards the battlefield.

As soon as the alarm sounded, the magic ships docked in the harbor immediately set sail. Two second-level magic ships and three first-level magic ships went straight towards the Siren Sea Elves.

After merging, ten magic ships lined up in a row, forming a solid line of defense on the sea, like a towering metal wall blocking the path of the Siren Sea Elves’ assault.

When the Siren Sea Elves launched their charge, the first thing to greet them was a barrage of intensive bombardment.

In the past, when the Siren Sea Elves charged towards the island, they would also be met with long-range attacks such as crossbows and spells. However, with the huge bodies of the humpback whales as shields, these long-range attacks could not cause any effective damage to them.

Now they planned to use the same trick again, but the subsequent developments caught them completely off guard.

The ten magic ships together had a total of 68 magic energy cannons. Just one volley turned the three humpback whales at the front of the charge into sieves, blood gushing out like a spring, instantly turning the surrounding area into a red sea.

If that was all, the humpback whales could still rely on their numbers to endure the cannon fire and get close to the magic ships.

But as the main cannon turrets of the two second-level magic ships opened fire, this dream was quickly shattered.

Buzz!

Two thick beams instantly crossed a distance of over a thousand meters, penetrating the humpback whales’ heads and then through their tails, bringing up a spray of blood that was as red as it could be.

This powerful sea monster, which even in the ocean food chain ranks among the top, was instantly killed without any resistance.

Buzz! Buzz!

The two cannon turrets fired at a frequency of five to six seconds, one beam after another, continuously harvesting the lives of the humpback whales.

The dual cannon fire attacked in a criss-cross pattern, forming a dense net of beams that covered the area in front of the magic ships, turning the thousand-meter sea into a death zone.

In less than two minutes, more than 30 humpback whales were wiped out, becoming bloody corpses floating on the surface of the water.

The Siren Sea Elves also paid the price of over 100 deaths.

The remaining Siren Sea Elves, having barely made it through the death zone and reached the magic ships, looked up at the towering metal beasts in front of them, but they had a feeling of helplessness.

Tap, tap, tap!

A hurried footsteps suddenly came from the ships, as if some kind of multi-legged creature was running quickly.

Following this, creatures that looked very much like octopuses suddenly emerged from the deck, leaping into the sea with a splash, splashing up large waves.

The surrounding Siren Sea Elves instinctively raised their tridents to stab, but they heard a crisp clang, as if they had stabbed some hard object, the tiger’s mouth shaking slightly.

“It’s a puppet!” A Siren Sea Elf shouted a warning.

Hearing this, the surrounding Siren Sea Elves did not retreat, but instead waved their tridents and charged forward.

Previous encounters with the Star League puppets had taught them that these puppets were very heavy once they entered the water, and they could easily be played with.

But soon they realized that they were completely wrong.

Countless dark tentacles broke through the water and attacked, their speed so fast that the Siren Sea Elves couldn’t react in time. They only felt a flash of black in their vision, followed by a sharp pain in their chests.

Looking down, they were met with a metal tentacle that had pierced deeply into their chests!

The Siren Sea Elves who survived the cannon fire did not see any improvement in the situation, but instead faced a new round of slaughter.

Facing thousands of legendary puppets, the Siren Sea Elves were simply no match, one after another being robbed of their lives by the metal tentacles.

This was a complete massacre!

The Siren Sea Elves quickly collapsed, scattering and fleeing in all directions.

But soon, they found their escape route blocked.

A group of human knights riding peculiar sub-dragon species had somehow surrounded them from behind, blocking their escape path.

The knights, who had taken underwater breathing potions, rode their water sub-dragons and began to chase the Siren Sea Elves in the sea.

And in the air, Sherman, Atil, and Tagana specifically targeted the more powerful elite Siren Sea Elves.

From the start of the Siren Sea Elves’ attack to the end of the war, the entire process lasted less than ten minutes.

The Star League side had almost completely crushed the Siren Sea Elves in a devastating manner.

The latter part of the war was entirely one-sided pursuit and mopping up.

Andrea, who was watching the battle from the coast, was filled with amazement.

Whether it was the cannon fire of the magic ships or the combat effectiveness of the octopus puppets and the water sub-dragon knights, she was impressed and marveled at them.

With these magic ships and armies, as long as the scale is large enough, forget about defending the islands, charging into the deep sea to wipe out the Siren Sea Elves is not a fantasy!

In the end of the battle, except for a few lucky ones who escaped, nearly two thousand Siren Sea Elves were wiped out.

Even though the Siren Sea Elves are known as the most intelligent race in the Rainbow Sea, such a huge loss is enough to cripple them and cause them to feel the pain.

The number of magic ships on the other side of the island was not as many as on the front line, but the Deep Sea Naga’s attack was also not as fierce as the Siren Sea Elves’. Not long after the battle on Sherman’s side ended, the war on the other side of the island also came to an end.

Over a thousand Deep Sea Naga were also nearly wiped out.

Finally, after taking stock of the losses, it was found that they had only lost more than thirty octopus puppets.

There were no casualties among the water sub-dragon knights, only a few who were slightly injured.

The magic ships also suffered some damage, but they could be repaired and restored to their original state.

Compared to the abundant spoils of war, these losses were negligible!

After merging, everyone had joyful smiles on their faces.

“After this, the Deep Sea Naga and Siren Sea Elves shouldn’t dare to underestimate us anymore. At least in the short term, they shouldn’t come to attack Coral Island again.”

Sherman said with a smile, then changed the subject.

“But we can’t be careless. If they come again, their attack will definitely be more fierce than this time. We need to be prepared.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

However, things developed even more smoothly than Sherman expected.

Perhaps they were beaten badly enough, that after that, the Siren Sea Elves and Deep Sea Naga never came to attack Coral Island again.

On the contrary, Sherman and the others later went on several trips into the deep sea area to explore, and they encountered the Siren Sea Elves and Deep Sea Naga fighting each other.

For some reason, the two races seemed to have given up their efforts to hinder the Star League’s expansion in the Rainbow Sea, turning instead to attack each other.

Almost every time the battle ended with the Siren Sea Elves winning.

And after winning, the Siren Sea Elves did not dare to attack the ships again, leaving without hesitation and disappearing into the sea.

The Star League’s artificial island construction plan thus entered a period of peaceful and rapid development.

Starlight Calendar 1292, Coral Island was completed.

The Star League added another city-state called Coral City to its territory.

The first golem factory and the first shipyard in the Rainbow Sea were established in Coral City, starting to manufacture octopus puppets and magic ships at full capacity.

Starlight Calendar 1293, Clamshell Island was completed, Clamshell City was established.

Starlight Calendar 1294, Red Shrimp Island was completed, Red Shrimp City was established.

In the same year, the Starlight Academy developed the first third-level magic ship, which passed practical tests and was officially deployed to Rainbow Bay.

Starlight Calendar 1295, the month of Revival (February).

The Star League’s first fleet was formed, named the First Naval Fleet.

The First Naval Fleet included five third-level magic ships, twenty-five second-level magic ships, and two hundred and fifty first-level magic ships.

In the same year, the month of Thunderclap (April).

The First Naval Fleet entered the deep sea area, heading towards a sea area called the Azure Eye where the Siren Sea Elves live.
