The world descends on Sky Island: God-level talents are drawn at the beginning.

Standing atop the mountain, the Korean star took in the vast landscape below.

After a moment, he looked away and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "Very good."

"After I broke through to the high-level lord, the area of ​​my territory has also doubled significantly."

"Compared to what it was when I was a mid-level lord, it's at least twenty times greater!"

Although his internal territory is equivalent to the only star in the universe.

However, it is much larger than a typical star.

There is absolutely no problem in accommodating hundreds of billions of lives living and developing on it.

However, this time the Korean star didn't come to inspect the territory, but to use that recruitment scroll.

The next moment, he followed the instructions and slowly poured the energy in his body into the scroll.

In an instant, the runes on the scroll began to move as if they were alive, shining with a dazzling blue-white light.

Then, he slowly began to recite the instructions as noted in the notes.

"With the stars as witness, with the storms as our pledge..."

"Heed my call, Alicia!"

Boom——!
A thunderclap suddenly boomed in the sky, and dark clouds gathered overhead at a visible speed.

Amidst howling winds, a massive magical warship slowly descended from the clouds.

"Zizi...Zizi..."

"Boom!"

The storm and thunder continued to sweep across the land, instantly covering the entire sky and completely surpassing the power of the Chaos Lord!
The creatures throughout the territory gazed at the sky in fear, muttering, "Oh God... what's happening?! Is the end of the world coming?"

"What a terrifying aura! I sense a power even more terrifying than that of the lord!"

"What's this?!"

The creatures in the territory were filled with doubt.

At that moment, Han Xing was watching the scene before him.

Before him, amidst the raging hurricane and thunder, the enormous magical warship had fully revealed its form.

The warship has a streamlined shape and is covered with scale-like magical armor. A giant storm eagle with outstretched wings is carved on the bow, and magical engines on both sides spew out lightning-like streams of energy.

Even more impressively, behind this flagship followed twelve smaller escort ships, each surrounded by a visible storm barrier.

At the same time, Han Xing noticed a solitary figure standing at the bow of the leading warship.

She wore armor inlaid with lightning crystals, a longsword wrapped in lightning hung at her waist, and her azure eyes seemed to contain an endless storm.

Her silver hair fluttered in the air, and she exuded a chilling aura!
She stood at the top, coldly looking down at the Korean stars below the mountain.

Clearly, this woman is the captain mentioned on the recruitment scroll: Alicia!
"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning struck, seemingly announcing the arrival of the fleet.

At the same time, the woman standing at the bow of the ship slowly spoke: "By the storm, guided by the thunder..."

"I am Captain Alicia of the Storm."

"Is this young lord the one who summoned the fleet?"

Han Xing's expression remained unchanged as he slowly nodded and said, "That's right, it was I who summoned you."

"From now on, you will serve me."

Upon hearing this, Alicia made no move, but the twelve escort ships behind her all turned their cannons around.

Violent lightning accumulated in the magic cannon barrel, emitting a chilling hum.

The entire sky was instantly enveloped in blinding blue light, as if it would blast the Korean star into dust in the next second!

"presumptuous!"

A steady voice came from the fleet behind them.

The figure of a middle-aged man with a weathered face, dressed in silver-blue armor, appeared and disappeared.

"The great Storm Captain never submits to anyone, especially not to a little guy like you who hasn't even reached the level of a God Realm Lord!"

"Although I don't know how you summoned your fleet, you are not worthy of our submission!"

"Boom--!"

The thunderous power accumulated by the fleet grew increasingly pure, seemingly about to unleash a terrifying force that would blast Han Xing and his territory into pieces!
Han Xing narrowed his eyes, watching the fleet in the sky with great interest.

To be honest, this was the first time he had ever used this kind of scroll, and he didn't know he would encounter this situation.

It seems that the guys here feel they are too weak to deserve their submission.

However... this situation is also easy to handle.

Although the strength of the fleet in front of us is indeed astonishing.

The Korean star had already silently calculated it in his mind.

If the woman standing at the bow is removed, this fleet, when operating at full power, can unleash combat power equivalent to a God Realm Lord.

Including that woman, that makes a total of two God Realm Lord-level combatants.

They certainly have reason to be proud...

But it's clear... even if they are two God Realm Lords, Han Xing could easily kill them all if he unleashed his full power.

"Om..."

The pupil of the Korean star's left eye suddenly turned blood red, a sign that the first level of the Triple Heavenly Eye: the Eye of Penetration was about to be activated.

With Han Xing's current mental strength, anyone whose gaze is locked onto by him, below the level of a God Realm Lord, is almost certain to die.

Just then, the woman on the bow of the ship slightly raised her right hand, which was covered by a white glove, and stopped the ship group from moving.

She neither looked down on her nor showed any contempt.

Instead, he calmly said, "My lord, please forgive my subordinate's rash actions."

"But it is understandable that they did so. The Storm Fleet has never yielded to any strong opponent, including this time."

“However, this time you summoned us from the spatial turbulence, and according to the ancient laws of the contract, we do indeed owe you a debt of karma.”

Alicia slowly raised her right hand, and a longsword crackling with lightning materialized in her palm: "If you can prove with your strength that you are worthy of the Storm Fleet's loyalty, then..."

She suddenly leaped from a thousand meters in the air, her silver hair flying in the gale, her long sword pointing directly at Han Xing's brow: "I acknowledge you as our new master!"

A system prompt appears.

[Ding! Instant challenge triggered: Survive Alicia's onslaught for five minutes.]

...

Upon seeing this notification, the Korean star smiled.

"If you had said it was this simple earlier... wouldn't the problem have been much easier to solve?"

Alicia was slightly taken aback by the Korean star's reaction.

Seemingly puzzling, a Chaos Lord, instead of panicking in the face of her challenge, appeared eager to try.

However, she didn't think much of it.

Regardless of who the target is, out of respect for her opponent, she will go all out!

The next moment, Alicia raised the Thunder Sword in her hand.

"Boom!" A torrent of violent lightning crashed down, accompanied by a fierce storm!
Amidst the thunder and storm, the longsword suddenly swelled in size, transforming into a giant light blade a thousand meters long.

Immediately afterwards, she gave the order: "Storm Fleet, all ships fire at once!"

A sinister smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged man in the fleet, as if he could already foresee the scene of Han Xing being blasted into pieces by the fleet.

Immediately afterwards, the magical runes on the ship's hull lit up layer by layer, converging into twelve pillars of lightning powerful enough to pierce through the continent!
"boom--!!!"

Thirteen attacks struck Han Xing's location simultaneously, and the terrifying explosions instantly leveled the entire mountain.

The shockwave swept across thousands of miles, even tearing a dark crack in the sky!

The entire territory was trembling violently!
"finished?"

The silver-armored adjutant squinted as he looked toward the epicenter of the explosion.

Alicia, too, watched the explosion site with a calm expression.

In her view, it was impossible for Han Xing, as a high-ranking lord, to survive such a concentrated attack.

It might even have been blasted into pieces.

So she slowly lowered her right hand, a gesture signifying the end of the battle.

However... as the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, what happened before their eyes somewhat overturned everyone's expectations.

In the center of the area where the enemy was being focused on, a figure stood calmly in place.

Apart from a little bit of smoke rising from his body, there were no other visible injuries.

Han Xing glanced indifferently at the fleet and the woman at the head.

Then, he casually stretched and said, "Is this the so-called strength of the Storm Fleet? It doesn't seem that impressive."

"To be honest... I'm a little disappointed with your strength."

"If this is all the Storm Fleet is capable of, I need to seriously consider whether or not to recruit you into my territory."

Upon hearing this, all the members of the fleet were slightly taken aback.

The next moment, their faces simultaneously showed expressions of shock, humiliation, and anger!

The silver-armored adjutant's face instantly turned bright red, and veins bulged on his forehead: "Arrogant! How dare you insult the honor of the Storm Fleet!"

He drew his sword sharply and roared, "All ships, listen up! Activate overload mode! Let this arrogant brat see what the true fury of the storm is all about!"

“Buzz——!!!”

The twelve escort ships simultaneously emitted a blinding red light, and the magical runes on their hulls began to flash wildly. The entire sky was dyed blood-red, as if the end of the world had arrived!

Alicia raised her hand to stop the fleet's movements. Her silver eyes were fixed on Han Xing, and she whispered, "How...did you do that?"

As the captain of the Stormship, she knew better than anyone the power of that salvo.

Even a true lord of the divine realm wouldn't accept it so casually!

Han Xing smiled slightly, a calm smile on his face: "As you can see, I am the master of this territory."

"Do you have any other, more powerful methods? If not, you can go back now."

"go back?"

Alicia looked at him blankly.

Han Xing nodded and said, "That's right. My territory doesn't support idlers. If your Storm Fleet only has this much strength, there's no need for you to join."

At that moment, Alicia's pupils contracted sharply, and an expression of disbelief appeared in her eyes.

She never imagined that one day someone would say to the Storm Fleet, "We don't support idlers."

The crew members in the fleet behind them were also trembling with rage, their crimson lightning reaching its peak!
However, without the captain's order, they were not allowed to take such action.

At this moment, the Korean star remained unmoved by their anger.

He did it on purpose, to force out the full strength of this so-called Storm Fleet.

As mentioned earlier, if the fleet is not strong, then keeping it in the territory is of little use.

At that moment, Alicia took a deep breath, her silver hair moving without wind: "It seems we underestimated you."

She slowly raised her right hand, and a diamond-shaped crystal shimmering with lightning emerged from her chest: "Since that's the case, then let me show you the Storm Fleet's true trump card."

"All crew members, listen up! Activate 'Heavenly Punishment Mode'!"

"Yes, sir!" came the thunderous reply from all twelve escort ships at the same time.

Then, an astonishing scene happened.

All the warships began to disintegrate and reassemble, turning into flowing liquid metal.

They converged above Alicia's head, merging with the lightning crystal to form a thunder giant ten thousand meters tall!

The giant's entire body was made of liquid metal, with countless magical runes flowing across its surface.

Its eyes were like two leaping thunderstorms, and every breath it took caused the heavens and earth to tremble.

"This is……?"

The Korean star narrowed his eyes, finally revealing an expression of interest.

Even he, who had always respected the Thunder Giant, felt a strong sense of crisis in front of him.

It should be noted that with his current strength, even a typical low-level god lord would not be able to pose any threat to him.

This also suggests that the Thunder Giant before them may possess combat power surpassing that of a low-level God Lord.

That is, a mid-level god lord!

“Storm Titan - Ultimate Battle Form.” Alicia’s voice came from inside the giant, “Formed by the fusion of thirteen warships, its combat power is fully comparable to that of a mid-level god.”

She manipulated the giant to raise his palm, and a thunderbolt ball with a diameter of one kilometer condensed in his palm: "Now... do you still think we're not qualified?"

Han Xing looked up at the colossal object, his smile growing wider: "Interesting...that's more like it!"

“Your strength has indeed met the standards for joining my territory.”

"Now, let's begin signing the contract."

However, upon hearing this, Alicia was slightly stunned again, seemingly unable to keep up with the Korean star's train of thought.

Inside the Thunder Giant behind her, disdainful whispers could be heard from the crew.

"I think this kid is just messing with us!"

"That's right, he knows he can't withstand the attack from the Storm Titan, that's why he said that."

"I think this kid is just a guy who likes to put on a brave face even when he's not!"

At this moment, Alicia slowly shook her head and said, "If you want us to join, the conditions remain the same: first, withstand our offensive for five minutes, and then we'll talk."

However, despite the storm fleet and the mocking remarks of the crew members, Han Xing still wore a faint smile.

"You know what? I'm actually not good at defense..."

His voice was calm and natural: "Comparatively, I'm better at attacking."

"How about changing the condition from defending for five minutes to me destroying the entire fleet within three seconds?"

"3 seconds?" A hint of surprise flashed in Alicia's silver eyes.

Before she could even speak, a tremendous rage was already emanating from within the Storm Titan!
