"It can only be done by giving an order."
After Xin Hai finished speaking, he sent one of his trusted priestesses over and gave the order:
"Take good care of Yuanjia. Yuanjia, if you have any requests, just tell this shrine maiden. She will take care of your food, clothing, and shelter."
After finishing speaking, Xin Hai left, leaving only Shen Ben Yuanjia, who was wearing an eye patch, in another room.
The next day, Shinkai led the remaining nine newly selected young shrine maidens into the main hall. This small island, where shrine maidens were trained, was originally a shrine with a main hall and a worship hall. On both sides were other auxiliary halls such as the Kagura Hall, the Dance Hall, the Treasure Hall, the Divine Portal Hall, the Granting Office, the Shrine Office, and the shrine maidens' dormitories.
While Niu Zida was having his way with the priestesses in the main hall, Xin Hai had his men take Shen Ben Yuanjia to the side hall to prevent her from hearing the sounds coming from the main hall.
After the other young shrine maidens lined up in the main hall, they all wore blindfolds, just like the goddess Honenka. However, all nine shrine maidens were bound and tied up on all fours, their arms fixed to the frame. They were in a position with their buttocks exposed, and a white cloth was placed between each of their legs.
None of the priestesses knew what this was about, but Shinkai said that it was a test from the gods, and if they failed, it would mean they were not loyal to the sea god. Only after he said that did the priestesses dare not question it anymore.
After the witches had all assumed their positions, Joel brought Niu Zida out again, and Niu Zida took turns performing acts on them. The witches cried out in pain and moaned incessantly, but under the watchful eye of Xin Hai, no one dared to question that this was the divine decree bestowed upon them by the Great God of the Sea. This continued until all nine young and beautiful women in the hall had their virginity taken, and the entire hall was filled with the stench of blood. Naturally, the white cloth beneath was also stained with blood.
"The sea god is very satisfied with the priestesses' service this time. All of you have passed the test and will stay here as special priestesses of the Coral Palace to serve your master."
After giving these young shrine maidens to him, Ushiko-da only dared to be with his maids, Misato Shizuku and Kuroyukihime, for the next few days. He wouldn't have dared to before, otherwise, Kuroyukihime would have been fine, but if Misato Shizuku had seen him using such a deceptive and trickish way to play with these young and beautiful shrine maidens, she would have definitely criticized him, and might even have ruined his plans.
About three days later, Shenben Yuanjia's belly started to grow. During these days, Shenben Yuanjia had been wearing a blindfold, so although she couldn't see, she could still feel the changes in her body. Her belly had grown after she received the "divine oracle," and the beautiful girl was naturally flustered. After telling Xin Hai, Xin Hai smiled and comforted her:
"It's alright, Yuanjia. Being pregnant means the contract has taken effect. The gods have recognized you and given you a true divine message, which will be transmitted to the believers on Haiqi Island through your belly."
"Huh? Is that so?"
"Yes, your body is the soil from which the Sea God spreads, so the more times you become pregnant, the more divine oracle you receive, and the more the Sea God likes to guide us."
Hearing the words of the current priestess of the Sea of Hearts, Shinmoto Enka finally breathed a sigh of relief. She subconsciously stroked her already protruding belly, and thinking that it was the "divine message" bestowed upon her by the "Great God of the Sea," her heart was filled with happiness, and a blissful smile appeared on her delicate face...
After that, all of the other priestesses, including Shinmoto Enka, gave birth to goblins. In one fell swoop, more than 60 goblins appeared on the island. Although these priestesses were still wearing blindfolds, Shinkai knew that they could not hide it any longer. After all, they had been living with blindfolds for a week, and now the goblins they had given birth to were the lowest of the demi-humans. If they did not explain properly, no matter how devout these young priestesses were, they would find it suspicious.
After resting for about 1-3 days, the 10 young shrine maidens who had just arrived on the island, including Kamimoto Enka, were gathered together. By this time, the young shrine maidens had a general idea that they had given birth to a goblin. In other words, the one who had violated them a few days ago was also a goblin, and could not possibly be the sea god.
"Lord Xinhai, what exactly is going on? Weren't we supposed to be here to serve the Great God Haiqi?"
At this moment, the young witch was finally allowed to remove her blindfold, and they gathered together to immediately begin questioning Xin Hai. Xin Hai naturally smiled and said:
"The one who bestowed power upon us is indeed the god of Haiqi Island. We people of Haiqi Island live in the middle of the ocean, and in order to survive, we can only keep expanding our space. However, the surrounding land has long been divided up. Without obtaining super strength, how could we possibly expand successfully? Therefore, isn't the one who can give us power the one who truly bestowed it upon us by the Great God Haiqi?"
"But if it's a goblin..."
"Does form really matter? We should accept any power bestowed upon us by the Sea God with gratitude. Isn't that how we show our trust in the deity?"
Xin Hai's words left the other priestesses speechless. After all, as the living god priestess of the Coral Palace, Xin Hai's interpretation of faith was the most authoritative. However, Shen Ben Yuan Jia still found it difficult to accept the fact that she had given birth to a goblin, so she mustered up her courage and said to Xin Hai:
"Lord Xinhai, even though you know the other party is a goblin, are you still going to decide to hand us over to them?"
"Our Haiqi Island needs strength and manpower for its expansion. It goes without saying that we can obtain strength from our master; I defeated Dark Danger Island precisely because of our master's power."
Chapter 142
"Furthermore, I've learned the Transformation of the Sea Moon, so wounded soldiers from Haiqi Island's future campaigns can receive treatment. More importantly, goblins born from mating with the master can fight in place of your fathers and brothers. If you give birth to goblins and Haiqi Island expands outwards, only your fathers, brothers, and sons will be sacrificed. Do you really want that? Or are you so naive as to think that wars don't require death?"
Xin Hai's analysis left not only the others speechless, but even Shen Ben Yuanjia had nothing to say...
Chapter 125 Attack on the Orc Village
Chapter 125.
Seeing that the priestesses had fallen silent, Shinkai paused for a moment before continuing:
"Everyone knows this, right? This is the best way to help everyone."
"But, Lord Xinhai, how can you be sure that the other party really has power?"
"Can this prove it?"
Seeing that Shenben Yuanjia was still somewhat unwilling to give up, Xin Hai simply summoned Hua Haiyue and displayed the elemental power he had gained in front of this person:
"I only learned about Master by chance through Rokusuke's business trip abroad. This is the fastest way I could find to gain power. I believe this is the guidance of the Great God of the Sea. Whether you want to work hard for the future of Sea God Island is entirely up to you. Now I'm giving you a chance. If you're willing to stay, you can continue to be Master's servants like me. If you're not willing, you can leave on your own. But in return, your fathers and brothers must be conscripted to fight in the war. If you stay, your families will be exempt from taxes and service because they are messengers serving the gods. You can't gain anything without giving. There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Since Xin Hai had already said all that, it no longer mattered whether the other priestesses believed that Niu Zida was the Great God of the Sea, because Xin Hai had already put the practical benefits of being a priestess on the table, and in the end, that was the most practical thing to do.
All the shrine maidens, including Shinmoto Enka, nodded without any objection. To them, securing a living space for Umijima Island was the greatest cause of righteousness, not to mention that they could also fight for the interests of their own families under this cause.
In the following week or so, the witches on the island, including Xin Hai, and Niu Zida's maid also became pregnant. As a result, the number of goblins on the island had increased to more than 100 in less than half a month. It was clear that the island was no longer suitable as a goblin breeding ground. Xin Hai decided to take over a nearby island occupied by orcs and use it as a base for breeding goblins.
The island was occupied by a village of orcs. Because of their formidable fighting strength, the Sea Island generally did not want to provoke them. Now that Xin Hai had Hua Hai Yue, it was a good opportunity to test how much it could improve the fighting strength of his Sea Island troops. Even if he offended the orc tribe, the expansion of the Sea Island would not be discovered. After all, he was fighting demi-humans, and no one cared about the life or death of orcs on a remote island.
The goblin numbers are still too few, so Xin Hai will still need to use human troops in this battle. To prevent unrest, Xin Hai has deliberately concealed this operation, only secretly mobilizing his own troops from Haizhi Island. Of course, Niu Zida's three maids, Chunxue, will also participate in the battle.
This time, Xin Hai mobilized about three thousand people, which is the largest force that Hai Zhi Island can mobilize at one time. If more troops are to be mobilized, a general mobilization would be necessary. According to Xin Hai, although Hai Zhi Island has about three or four hundred thousand people, a general mobilization could mobilize tens of thousands of troops, but that would damage economic production activities. Such a mobilization, which is entirely based on squeezing economic capacity, will not be used until the last minute.
Even so, mobilizing 3,000 people at once puts a huge strain on Haizhi Island's economy. Xin Hai's goal this time was to secure a major victory and gain popular support for Haizhi Island's expansion. Therefore, this large-scale deployment was made for the sake of stability and to ensure victory. In reality, the logistical and supply burden of such a large force is immense. Before the battle, Xin Hai had informed Niu Zida that Haizhi Island could only support one such large-scale military operation this year. He simply couldn't afford to mobilize so many people for the next battle. Otherwise, not to mention the casualties, the logistical burden of such a large force would have crippled Haizhi Island. Without even an enemy, the people of Haizhi Island would have overthrown them.
"Don't worry, as long as I get enough land to breed more goblins, I won't need to use the army from Haizhi Island to fight against other countries in the future."
Holding Xin Hai's soft snowflakes, Niu Zida, lying in the beautiful girl's arms, made such a promise. After hearing this, Xin Hai smiled and took the initiative to kiss Niu Zida's forehead with her red and tender little mouth. The most effective way for a man to communicate with a woman is to make empty promises. This is always effective. No wonder so many girls are often deceived by liars, because only liars can meet their demands. Niu Zida thought to himself after making his promise.
Upon arriving at the island inhabited by the orcs, Niu Zida discovered that it was an island of about 3 acres in size, with an orc village on it, numbering around a thousand people. Why would Xin Hai need to mobilize so many people to attack such a small village? Wasn't that overkill? However, what happened next made Niu Zida realize that he had been incredibly naive.
The troops on Haizhi Island slowly landed and assembled at the island's edge. Because the sandy beaches at the island's edge were quite soft and wet, their assembly took considerable effort. Although the island wasn't very large, it had dense forests and relatively high peaks. It was said that at low tide, an even larger mudflat would be exposed.
Chapter 143
Now that we're out, we're taking advantage of the high tide to land on the island, which makes it much easier.
After much effort to organize the troops, Xin Hai ordered the army on Haizhi Island to set up camp on the shore. Because they landed on the island during high tide, their camp was actually set up closer to the interior of the island than the actual mudflats. This meant that they could only resupply during high tide. If it was low tide, they would have to quickly find a large area of mudflats to receive supplies, which would be a lot more work. Fortunately, this war operation should not be very long, and it should be enough to replenish supplies during the high tides.
Leaving some men to guard the main camp, Xin Hai organized the Haiqi Island army to continue advancing into the interior of the island. After passing through a shallow mountain range, they could see the sentry post outside the orc village halfway up the mountain. There seemed to be people still on guard. It seemed that the other side was completely unprepared for this attack by the Haiqi Island army.
Xin Hai ordered his troops to form square formations, each consisting of about 200 people. Even so, aside from guarding the camp and protecting the flanks, there were still more than a dozen square formations. Commanding so many people was very troublesome, so Xin Hai could only rely on messengers to move them one by one. He first directed three square formations to approach the orc village to probe the situation on the outside.
The three formations slowly approached the orc village. Because the orc village was located halfway up the mountain, the Haiqi Island army was attacking uphill. However, even as they approached the village, the enemy still did not put up any resistance. Xin Hai was not in a hurry, but slowly ordered the advance, not to rush and disrupt the formation, and to ensure that the troops advanced in an organized manner.
"I didn't expect that little slut in white silk would actually have some methods for managing troops."
In military discipline and warfare, the most difficult thing is not some profound strategy. Being able to keep troops in formation, obey orders, and advance and retreat in an orderly manner is considered strict military discipline. An army that cannot even march properly is simply incapable of fighting.
"However, the enemy has not yet appeared, which is not in line with the orcs' habits."
After all, Ushiko-da had previously fought against other demi-humans in the border region with his maid. Seeing that these demi-humans were already approaching the village but still refused to fight, Misato Shizuku said something, and Ushiko-da also felt that something was not right...
Chapter 126 The Power of the Sea of Mind
Chapter 126.
Just as Misato Shizuku had predicted, the three vanguard formations sent by Shinkai quickly ran into trouble. Just as they were about to reach the village entrance halfway up the mountain, the orcs on the sentry post suddenly blew their conch shells, and a large number of orc archers poured out from all directions, firing wildly at the Haiqi Island army's formations.
Although the orcs' bows and arrows didn't have a high draw weight, the Haiqi Island army itself was poorly equipped, so their formation crumbled after being hit by the hail of arrows. Most of them didn't have any decent armor; ultimately, Haiqi Island was too poor to afford good equipment, they were all numbers and nothing more.
Under the sudden attack of the orcs, the first three formations immediately collapsed. Many soldiers from Haiqi Island were shot and were unable to maintain their formation, scattering in all directions after being wounded.
"As expected, they have many people, but they're not an organization at all."
Niu Zida, who was being held by Joel and watching the battle from a distant high ground, shook his head upon seeing this. No wonder Xin Hai could mobilize so many people but remained cautious around the perimeter. With such limited combat strength, against a well-trained human knight army, the enemy's hundred or so knights would probably crush this rabble with a single charge. In the end, Xin Hai could only muster a group of farmers who were somewhat armed and disciplined, and even that level of discipline was probably only due to the religious faith of the Coral Palace.
Seeing the casualties in the three formations ahead, Xin Hai rushed forward. Unfortunately, the chaos of several hundred men was beyond her ability to control with simple commands. To prevent the defeated soldiers from charging into her own main force, Xin Hai ordered her rear guard to maintain their ranks and not accept the fleeing troops. At the same time, she shouted in the opposite direction of the fleeing soldiers:
"Rest and recuperate."
Xin Hai instantly summoned a floating, illusory jellyfish. The jellyfish then spread outwards in waves of water. Wherever the water waves reached, the wounded soldiers instantly felt their wounds heal and their strength recover significantly. Even their low morale was boosted. However, several soldiers who had been shot by arrows and fallen off cliffs or killed instantly by arrows to vital points could not be revived. It seems that the jellyfish summoned by Xin Hai can only heal but not revive.
"Oh, it seems Xin Hai is so eager to use his elemental combat skills."
Niu Zida played with Joel's snow-white breasts, the beautiful woman with long black hair and delicate flesh changing into various shapes according to his will, making Joel blush and blush.
"Hmph, so you're already using it at this level? You really can't hold back..."
Shizuku Misato gave a cold snort and rolled her eyes at Yoel. On the surface, she was talking about Kokoro, but in reality, she was mocking Niu Zida, who was always flirting with Yoel.
Niu Zida shaped Yoer's large snowflakes into an almost gourd shape, his fingers sinking into the beautiful woman's smooth, fleshy breasts, and he would even occasionally flick the little cherries on them.
After being stabilized by Hua Haiyue's healing, the front-line formation of Haiqi Island gradually regained its formation. Only then did Xin Hai begin to reorganize the troops. Having roughly determined the orcs' location and firepower distribution after the ambush, Xin Hai collected all usable armor and shields from the army, equipping the front-line men with them. Under his command, they made a second advance along the mountain path.
Chapter 144
.
Heading towards the mountainside.
This time, the orcs' arrows and ambushes were no longer very effective. Occasionally, logs and stones would fall, causing some soldiers to be injured, but they would recover quickly under Hua Haiyue's healing. Soon, the orcs had used up all the logs and stones they had prepared in advance. After all, this was a small island, and there weren't many large trees and stones. Moreover, they lacked the hides and sinews of large animals, so they couldn't build leather armor and strong bows. Therefore, their firepower projection capability was obviously limited.
Finding that the enemy's vitality posed no threat to their side, the Haizhi Island army was able to hold its ground during the second attack on the village halfway up the mountain. In particular, the concentrated use of all available equipment by the entire army had a good effect, and the Haizhi Island army quickly broke through the village's ambush defenses and rushed in.
Xin Hai then commanded three more square formations to support the troops in front, while he led the rest of his men to advance slowly. The orcs, whose lines had been breached, seemed to have no good way to deal with it. Many orcs rushed out to engage the Haiqi Island army in close combat, but none could break through their formation. The Haiqi Island army was far inferior to the well-trained knightly armies of human nobles, but dealing with a well-organized demi-human village like the orc village was still relatively easy with proper command.
"It seems these orcs have little ability to resist."
After the previous ambush failed to harm the Haiqi Island army, it clearly dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the orcs. Under Xin Hai's command, the first few formations gradually eliminated all the orcs' resistance and advanced step by step towards the village. The other formations followed suit and slowly advanced. After a few hours, fires could be seen rising from the village, and many of the remaining orcs had been driven out. It seemed that the village had been completely occupied.
"Master, it seems that the woman in white silk has won."
"It's so troublesome to conquer even a village like this. Now I understand why Xin Hai's expansion has always been unsuccessful."
Joel carried Niu Zida to the front, where they could see Xin Hai organizing people to count the prisoners in the village. Joel hid Niu Zida and moved closer to Xin Hai, since the existence of this goblin, Niu Zida, was still a secret to most people on Haizhi Island.
When Xin Hai saw that Joel and his group had arrived, she handed over her work to the others and went to a secluded place with Joel and his group. Then she took Niu Zida from Joel's arms so that Niu Zida could pull down the bow on her chest and lick her breasts.
"The battle went fairly smoothly; the village was captured in half a day."
"not bad."
Are the casualties high?
"The casualties weren't too high, thanks to the power my master bestowed upon me. Otherwise, with such a large numerical advantage, if things hadn't gone smoothly, it would have been a mess."
"How many casualties are there?"
"Because of the use of the Transformation of the Sea Moon, there were no wounded soldiers. Five people died in the enemy's ambush during the first attack."
If Xin Hai hadn't used his skills to stabilize morale, given Haiqi Island's lackluster combat strength, that ambush would likely have resulted in at least a hundred casualties. Even if they had won, they would have had to pay an even higher price. If such a small village could cause so many deaths and injuries, it's no wonder Xin Hai was reluctant to use his military force against other countries before; labor is also very valuable to Haiqi Island.
"Yeah, not bad."
Niu Zida forcefully grasped Xin Hai's firm, snow-white breasts and kneaded them back and forth. Xin Hai, with a slight blush of shame on her fair face, said:
"This is all the power that our master bestowed upon us."
Niu Zida looked at Xin Hai's sweet smile and felt a strong itch in his heart. He pinched Xin Hai's soft and tender breasts, and had Joel pick him up again. He then mounted Xin Hai's head from the front, put his legs on the beautiful girl's fragrant shoulders, held Xin Hai's head, and thrust his huge member into her red and tender mouth.
Xin Hai could only furrow her brows and let out a soft hum, trying her best to open her mouth wide enough to accommodate it, even letting the huge thing go all the way into her throat. It thrashed and churned inside, and at one point, a lot of Xin Hai's saliva was even brought out. She made "hmm hmm hmm" sounds, trying to swallow as much as possible while enduring the nausea of dry heaving, and tightening her snowy cheeks as she writhed.
"Oh, oh, oh... As expected, your mouth technique is quite good, you white-stockinged slut."
Niu Zida pressed down on Xin Hai's erect head and began his sprint. After hundreds of continuous thrusts, he finally pulled out from Xin Hai's tender, sucking mouth just before he climaxed, and sprayed his desire all over the beautiful girl's delicate face...
"Thank you for the reward, Master..."
Xin Hai, curled up in white silk, knelt on the ground, tilting her head back with a sweet smile. She even licked the remaining bits of saliva from the corner of her beautiful mouth with her little tongue and then ate them.
"Don't erase it, understand?"
“Jiannu understands…”
Upon hearing Niu Zida's instructions, Xin Hai smiled and nodded obediently in agreement.
Chapter 127 The Heart of Flattery and Ingratiation
Chapter 127.
After waiting for the marks on his face to dry, Xin Hai returned to his troops. By then, the Haizhi Island army had driven all the orc villagers out, and together with the captured soldiers, there were about 500 people in total.
"Lord Xinhai, what should we do with these prisoners?"
"Detain them first and find out if there are any other orc villages or settlements on this island."
Detaining hundreds of people is no easy task; they can only be temporarily escorted to the seaside and then guarded by a fence. Meanwhile, the Xin Hai Sect understands...
Chapter 145
People speaking the language of the Dea people came to interrogate the orc prisoners, the elderly and weak villagers separately, hoping to extract useful information from them, while the rest of the Sea God Island army began to enter the village to search and clear it out.
"These buildings can be left to our master for breeding goblins later."
After giving the order, Xin Hai returned to Niu Zida's side. The battle for the day was over, so Xin Hai began to arrange for the troops to rest in the village. He also specially arranged for Niu Zida's maids to live with him. Naturally, he claimed to outsiders that these maids were his friends from Altaïr. Since they were all girls, no one would suspect anything. Apart from a few confidants, most people on Haizhi Island were unaware of Niu Zida's existence.
