The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 183 Puppet Reinforcement

Somewhere in the Sun Sea Region.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The resounding rumbles of mechanical weapons being fired echoed across the sea.

"How long until the reinforcements sent by His Majesty arrive?" a navy soldier couldn't help but ask.

"Just a few more minutes; you must persist," a senior navy soldier comforted.

It had been a few hours since they found themselves trapped at sea.

Looking around, they could see densely packed sea beasts clashing against the ship.

If it weren't for the ship's barrier, they would have been killed by now.

With the ship's energy depleting, their anxiety grew.

Without a platform to stand on, their combat power would be less than half.

By then their death was only a matter of time.

"How much energy do we have left?" the ship's captain asked.

"Captain, we have only 2.5 percent remaining. We have less than half an hour!"

"It's enough," the captain said solemnly.

His Majesty had already sent them a notification of the incoming reinforcement.

There was also a tracker, so they would know exactly when the reinforcement would arrive.

"Just 12 minutes..."

Knowing that the reinforcement was near, the navy soldiers cheered as they calmed down.

They were incredibly unlucky; there wasn't even a nearby island where they could take refuge.

If there had been, surviving for a few days would not have been a problem.

As the minutes passed by,

The navy soldiers eagerly looked to see when the reinforcements would arrive.

Rumble!

Boom!

A thunderous lightning descended from the sky, wreaking havoc on the sea, electrocuting the sea beast to a crisp.

Fortunately, the ship had some insulators; otherwise, they might have suffered the same fate.

"The reinforcements are here!"

"We're saved!"

"Thank goodness the reinforcements arrived."

The navy soldiers cheered as they saw the reinforcements.

They watched as the endless thunder rained down on the sea beasts.

Rumble!

Rumble!

Rumble!

As the thunder sounded, the fried corpses of sea beasts began to float in the sea.

With the obstruction from the pile of sea beast corpses, the sea beast tide slowed down.

A few minutes passed by, and the thunder gradually disappeared.

Looking at the disappearing rain of thunder they finally had a clear view of their rescuers.

"Huh, a puppet?"

They were dumbfounded as the puppet slowly floated towards their ship's captain.

"By the order of Your Majesty, ship no. 1426 is hereby tasked to proceed to the base island no. 104," the puppet said robotically.

"As commanded by Your Majesty!" the ship's captain saluted as he instructed his men.

With the puppet's escort, they reached base island No. 104.

The ship captain noticed that another ship also docking at the island with a puppet escort.

"Just how rich is His Majesty?" the captain thought curiously.

A Tier 6 puppet was usually more expensive than a Tier 6 slave.

But, counting the number of ships coming to island No. 104 and the number of puppet escorts.

The captain estimated that there were over a thousand tier 6 puppets.

What he didn't know was that by now, there were already over 6,000 puppets providing support all over the Sun Sea Region.

With Maximus earning more than a trillion every hour, the number of puppets grew at an alarming rate.

This is even because Maximus bought Tier 8 puppets and then downgraded them to Tier 6.

If Maximus had bought Tier 6 puppets directly, there would be millions of puppet reinforcements every hour.

Unfortunately, Maximus was a bit of a perfectionist.

Since he could buy Tier 8 puppets, why settle for weaker ones that would be discarded later on?

Anyway, money flowed like water for him, so he spared no expense.

"Captain no. 1426, how are the casualties?" the Assistant of the Rear Admiral asked.

"There are no casualties, just some cases of low energy, and the ship might be slightly damaged."

"That's good. The captain should rest while he can; there are still many things to do later."

"We're just waiting for orders from Admiral Johnson and His Majesty."

"Be sure to be ready at all times," the assistant reminded as he came to the other captains.

After the ship was docked by his subordinate, the Captain ordered his subordinates to rest.

After a near-death experience, his soldiers were very fatigued.

"Huh~ I wonder when this will end..."

...

In Base Island No. 1:

"I've met Your Majesty!" Johnson saluted as he saw Maximus.

"At ease" Maximus waved his hand.

With the deployment of the puppets, he had nothing else to do.

So Maximus came to Base Island No. 1 to talk to Johnson.

"How is the casualty of our Imperial Navy?" Maximus inquired.

"So far, there have been no deaths due to the timely reinforcement from His Majesty," Johnson replied.

"However, there are quite a lot of injuries to our soldiers. Furthermore, there has been a lot of damage to our ships."

Johnson began to convey the situation of the Imperial Navy, taking into account injuries, damage, supply chain issues, and various losses.

"What do you plan to do next?" Maximus asked.

"First of all, how many Tier 6 puppets does Your Majesty have?" Johnson asked in return.

"There are currently over 6,000 of them," Maximus replied.

"There are also about 4,000 puppets that will be finished tomorrow."

"This..." Johnson was a little shocked.

He never expected that His Majesty had hidden such power.

Moreover, it appeared that there was a complete supply chain in place.

"How is it?" Maximus smiled, waiting for the plan that Johnson would propose.

Although Maximus already had a vague plan, he didn't want to overthink it.

After all, what's the use of having subordinates if he had to do everything himself?

Moreover, with Tier 6 puppets as reinforcements, there was little room for error.

"I plan to wipe out all the sea beasts and incorporate all the land in the Sun Sea Region," Johnson said solemnly.

"So confident?" Maximus was a little shocked by Johnson's boldness.

His original plan was only to protect the people inhabiting the Sun Sea Region.

But Johnson seemed to intend to take over the entire area at once.

"Your Majesty, this is a chance!"

"The sea beast tide may be a misfortune to others, but with the puppets of Your Majesty, this is our opportunity!" Johnson exclaimed excitedly.

It had been a few months since they set out on a journey to conquer all of the Sun Sea Region.

However, despite their overwhelming strength, there was not much progress.

With a few trillion people in the Sun Sea Region, persuading them individually was a waste of time.

Now, with the Sea Beast Tide, they could potentially seize the entire Sun Sea Region at lightning speed with the right operation.

"Then I will wait for your news," Maximus patted Johnson for encouragement.

"I will, Your Majesty!"

...

After talking to Johnson, Maximus came outside to assess the damaged ships.

"There should be enough Atomic God metal," Maximus thought, looking at his system space.

With exponential growth, there were already towering mountains of Atomic God Metal in his system space.

Furthermore, they were still absorbing mana, doubling in quantity every 15 minutes.

On the side were the Earth of Life and the Water of Life.

By now, Maximus couldn't even estimate their size.

The only thing he knew was that it was already bigger than the Etherium Realm.

If it weren't for the unlimited size of his system space, he wouldn't dare to imagine such a scene.

Curious about how large the land and water in the space were, he urged his consciousness to scan.

With the assistance of the system space, the speed of his consciousness was faster than the speed of light.

However, a few minutes later, he still couldn't see the end of it.

"How big is it..." Maximus frowned.

Not wanting to waste more time.

Maximus had his system check the situation of the Earth of Life and the Water of Life.

[Earth of Life: Expanded to a diameter of 15 billion light years.

Note: Has reached its potential limit.]

[Water of Life: Expanded to a diameter of 20 billion light years.

Note: Has reached its potential limit.]

"Damn!" Maximus cursed in shock.

He had underestimated the power of exponential growth.

To reach such a size, doubling in quantity every time was no joke.

It took only a little over a day to reach this enormous size from a mere speck of dirt and a drop of water.

Basically, it only needs to double 80-90 times to reach such a size.

"Huh? Potential limit?" Maximus was puzzled.

It was the first time he had heard that mana growth items had limits.

But after thinking about it, it made sense.

If they could expand endlessly, the void would have already been filled by now.

He didn't hear about it now, probably because there was no one who had unlimited mana like him, or they were secretive about it.

"The Atomic God metal should also have a limit," Maximus pondered.

Although there were only a few mountains of it at the moment, maybe a few hours later, it would also reach its limit.

"Sigh, anyway, let's coat the ships with armor first..."
