Under the steps, Sonia stood, awaiting orders.
"I've come this time to instruct you on some matters."
"Please, speak, my lord. I will act according to your will."
"No need to be so tense, have a seat." Ji Chen glanced at the solemn-faced Sonia and smiled.
Sonia hesitated for a moment but eventually sat on one of the stone chairs, only halfway, keeping her back straight.
Seeing this, Ji Chen didn't say anything more and continued, "Currently, the Western Mid-Ocean is under attack by a Sea Beast Tide. Our connections with settlements like the Northern Continent have been forcibly severed, which has a significant impact on the development of the Crown of the Ocean."
Sonia nodded. The Lord had previously mentioned the outside world to her to some extent, and she was aware of places like the Western Mid-Ocean and the Northern Continent, so understanding now was not a problem.
