In fact.
The first to react was not the major powers, but the big companies that controlled the lifeline of the world.
They were far more concerned about the mysterious continent than the government.
When they learned that a vast continent had appeared in the Pacific Ocean, the world's major corporations responded one after another.
Oil tycoons, power tycoons, media tycoons, and so on.
People from all walks of life gathered to investigate the situation in the New Continent.
Among them, the first to receive the order were undoubtedly the cruise ships, cargo ships, and other ships that traveled to and from the Pacific Ocean.
These ships were originally shuttling through the Pacific Ocean, going back and forth between America, Asia, and Europe.
However, the sudden appearance of the mysterious continent and the Earth, which had become a hundred times larger, had completely changed their itinerary, forcing them to temporarily change their destination.
The ship that had just set sail was still fine. It could return directly.
However, the ships that had reached the depths of the Pacific Ocean were not so lucky.
Halfway through their journey, they might have to travel dozens of times more than before!
Even without considering the time, the supplies on the ship could not support the sudden increase in distance.
Therefore, some ships had no choice but to force their way towards the mysterious continent!
The Aurelia Cruise was one of them.
This was a luxury cruise ship that traveled between the Federation and the Dragon Country. It could carry more than 2,000 passengers and crew.
When the world of the Nine Provinces descended, the Aurelia cruise ship was carrying a large number of tourists from the Dragon Country to the Federation. It was a 15-day international luxury yacht trip.
The cruise ship sailed deep into the Pacific Ocean.
As far as the eye could see, the waves rippled, making one feel relaxed and happy.
However…
A sudden change changed everything.
The arrival of Nine Regions and the great changes in the Pacific Ocean.
This put the cruise ship in a dilemma.
Retreat, the ship had to cross nearly 100,000 miles to reach Fusang!
With the various supplies on the ship, it was impossible to accomplish such a feat.
In front of him was a completely unknown continent.
If he wanted to bypass this mysterious continent, he would need to cross an even longer coastline and danger.
The captain made a decisive decision in this situation.
Stay where you are and wait for reinforcements!
However…
When misfortune began to befall, the Goddess of Luck would not show any mercy for it. She would only kick someone when they were down like a bitch.
While the cruise ship was transmitting its situation through the satellite and waiting for rescue.
A storm had descended!
Thick dark clouds seemed to be pressing down on their heads like an endless mountain range, making it difficult for them to breathe.
A storm suddenly struck.
The hurricane stirred up huge waves that were dozens of meters high, causing the cruise ship to sway left and right.
The sea was turbulent, and the waves were getting more and more ferocious.
A torrential rain poured down.
It was as if the heavenly river was pouring down, surging crazily towards the human world.
The glass of the ship looked like a small waterfall.
In such bad weather, the cruise ship had to change its plan to wait for rescue. Otherwise, they would be lost under the turbulent sea before the rescue team arrived.
In order to avoid the storm, the captain had to force his way to a nearby island.
This island could not be seen through the satellite, and the signal was affected by an unknown interference.
At the same time.
According to the satellite comparison, this was an island that did not originally exist on Earth!
Unknown!
Mysterious!
If it was in the past, the captain would never have driven his beloved cruise ship to such a place.
However…
At this moment, he had no other choice.
Staying in place meant certain death.
There was still a chance of survival if they headed to an unknown island.
Under the test of life and death, he made the simplest choice.
Let's go.
The huge cruise ship was like an ancient ferocious beast, tearing through the storm and heading towards the island in the distance.
-
East Zhang Island.
It was a large island that spanned thousands of miles.
The East Sea, located in Nine Regions, was an important hub that connected Nine Regions with Fusang and other places. Therefore, its business flourished and countless people from Jianghu gathered.
Among them, the most famous ones were undoubtedly the Eastern Sea Sect and the Shang Clan.
Shan Meixian, the sect leader of the Eastern Sea Sect, had a powerful cultivation base. She was a martial arts expert at the peak of the Three Flowers Gathering Level, which was extremely rare overseas.
His connections were even more powerful, and he had a very good relationship with the dignitaries of various countries in Nine Regions, and he had a close arms trade with various countries.
The Shang Clan was an established clan on Dongzhang Island. They had a large number of servants, private land, and even a private army.
Even the imperial family of Dongzhang Island had to take note of the Shang Clan's attitude.
Furthermore, the Eastern Sea Sect and the Shang Family were inextricably linked and had a very good relationship.
With the two clans working together, there was no force on Dongzhang Island that could contend against them.
However…
In recent years, the situation on the island had changed dramatically.
The Great Han Dynasty suddenly rose up and swept across the Nine Regions.
All the countries were destroyed.
However…
Although the various countries had been wiped out by the Great Han cavalry, there were still a large number of nobles from the previous dynasty who were dissatisfied with the Great Han Dynasty. They wanted to rebuild the country and restore their former glory and privileges.
After their homeland was destroyed, these people had tried to resist, but they did not succeed. After several turns, they came to Dongzhang Island.
As the Great Han Dynasty continued to expand, more and more countries were destroyed, and more and more people fled to Dongzhang Island.
Their arrival had brought a huge change to Dongzhang Island.
Now.
These people had already formed the strongest force on Dongzhang Island!
If it weren't for the fact that they were working together in name, but in reality, they were wary of each other and didn't trust each other, Dongzhang Island would have long since changed hands.
Even so, no one dared to underestimate the power they possessed.
At this moment, the cruise ship was speeding toward Dongzhang Island.
There was no concealment.
He was exposed to the eyes of all the major factions on Dongzhang Island!
There were pirates, outlaws, and even escaped rebels on Dongzhang Island.
Therefore, he was especially sensitive to the situation in the outside world.
Regardless of whether it was inside or outside the island, or at the ports, there were many secret agents belonging to the various factions monitoring the situation, fearing that the Great Han Dynasty's army would descend.
A huge ship that had never been seen before was approaching. Before it was even fifty miles away from Dongzhang Island, the news had already reached the island.
Then, they were sent to the various factions by the spies of the various factions.
A giant steel ship was heading towards the island!
