Becoming the Master of a Mermaid Island From Today

When he opened his eyes, Lei Xiu realized that he had transmigrated to an alternate dimension and had become an exiled prince in a faraway island after failing to usurp the throne. This was extremely disadvantageous to Lei Xiu. However, who could have expected him to obtain the Ocean Ranch System at such a critical time? From then on, the surrounding seas became his new home. He arrived at a nearby island and restored it beautifully. He then summoned mermaids from under the sea. These mermaids were elegant and proficient in song and dance. They also had powerful battle capabilities. Not only that. Lei Xiu planted an Ocean Tree at the bottom of the sea. The tree would emerge out of the surface of the water when it grew and would grow to become thousands of miles tall. The tree would produce beautiful sea spirits. These sea spirits were natural warriors and singers. Lei Xiu bred countless powerful demonesses using the straits, which became the nightmare of the many ships passing through the area. He also bred sea dragons which lived in the trenches. They were able to manipulate the weather and was all-powerful. Unintentionally, Lei Xiu realized that he had become the lord of the sea. The world would tremble whenever Lei Xiu was angry! Just like that, the world still had many legends about Lei Xiu after many years had passed. The people addressed him as the Lord of the Sea, King of Gods!

A mechanical voice sounded in his mind.

Lei Xiu smiled happily, not just because he obtained experience and gold coins after completing the mission. It was also because this was the first time he had defeated an invader. His first defensive mission, yet he did not succumb to any losses.

As the ship was destroyed, the sea swallowed the entire ship. Hence, Mo Nian and the rest of the mermaids had to swim to the bottom of the sea. They found the ship at a depth of nearly 200 meters. They searched the entire ship and found five large boxes.

They then brought the five large boxes back to Lei Xiu.

On the shore, Lei Xiu was filled with anticipation as he looked at the five large chests placed in front of him. He began opening the chests one by one. Each was filled with glittering gold coins and some jewels. Of course, Lei Xiu had no use for the jewels. Only gold coins were useful to him.

Lei Xiu did a rough calculation and found that there were actually more than 15,000 gold coins in the five large chests! He was elated. He had never been so rich before. He had spent all his gold coins in this war, but had more than 15,000 gold coins now.

The mermaids cheered loudly at the sight of the gold coins and jewelry!

"Indeed, war is the best way to get rich!" Lei Xiu lamented as he looked at the gold coins.

"The patterns on these gold coins are all different. Looks like there are many kingdoms outside. I have to continue to increase the defences of this island!" Lei Xiu looked at the patterns on the gold coins and thought to himself.

The mermaids did not pay attention to the glittering gold coins. Instead, their eyes were fixed on the beautiful jewelry. Women were naturally captivated by such beautiful jewelry, and the mermaids were no exception.

"You can have all these jewelry!" Lei Xiu smiled as he looked at the intense desire in the mermaids' eyes.

"Really? Island Master!" the mermaids exclaimed excitedly.

"Sure! These jewelry are of no use to me, so feel free to have them!" Lei Xiu replied.

"Thank you, Island Master!" After the mermaids heard their Island Master's words, they immediately helped themselves to their favorites. In a short while, all the jewelry was snatched up. Each of them loved the jewelry they selected and were overjoyed.

This was the first time mermaids have defeated humans!

In the past, it was the mermaids who constantly avoided the pursuit of humans. They were inferior to humans in all aspects, be it weapons, numbers, tactics, and so on. They were incapable of defending against the powerful humans.

But now, not only did they have excellent weapons, this was the first time they had managed to defeat an enemy that they had thought was invincible in the past. All of this could only be attributed to the man in front of them! He was the one who armed them with weapons that could defeat their enemies, and provided them a place to reside, in this world where the strong preyed on the weak.

They all looked at Lei Xiu, their eyes filled with gratitude!

Lei Xiu watched them and laughed heartily.

At the same time, the attributes panel changed!

Host: Lei Xiu (Ocean Ranch Master)

Ranch: Mermaid Island

Class: First Class Swordsman (25 / 250)

Item: 3,000 gold coins

Lei Xiu had finally become a Rank One Swordsman! Although a Rank One Swordsman was not powerful, there seemed to be no need for Lei Xiu to train. What Lei Xiu needed to do was to continuously complete missions.

The more missions he completed, the stronger he would be. The capabilities of the mermaids and Mermaids Island would also increase!

The attributes panel on Mermaid Island changed.

Ranch: Mermaid Island

Mermaid Number: 106

Output: 212 gold coins per hour

Fortifications: Water Cannons (One level 2 turret, two level 1 turrets)

Looking at the increasingly powerful Mermaid Island, Lei Xiu was delighted.

He stored all of the 15,000 gold coins into the system's storage space. These coins were real-world coins that would have to be stored into the system to be used. Therefore, Lei Xiu registered all the goin coins in.

However, Lei Xiu discovered a problem during the process. He had counted that there were more than 15,000 coins, but only 13,000 or so were registered into the system. This probably meant that more than 2,000 fake gold coins were counterfeit!

"Looks like there are unscrupulous merchants everywhere!" Lei Xiu sighed.

Host: Lei Xiu (Ocean Ranch Master)

Ranch: Mermaid Island

Class: First Class Swordsman (25 / 250)

Item: 1670 gold coins

Even so, having more than 13,000 gold coins was not a small sum. With this amount of money, he would be able to accomplish many things.

He could build a few more water turrets, or buy upgrades. He could also choose to construct other defensive structures. This way, his Mermaid Island would become more powerful. Just thinking about this thrilled him.

While Lei Xiu was absorbed in his own thoughts, the sun gradually descended near the sea's surface, taking together with it, the scorching heat.

A full moon replaced the sun and hung high in the sky. A gentle breeze was blowing in the air , but it could do nothing to calm the passionate hearts of the mermaids!

"Lei Xiu Island Master! This is our first time going up against the humans. Why don't we hold a celebratory feast?" Mo Nian said.

"Good idea! Let's do that!" Lei Xiu agreed.

Hence, the mermaids began to get busy. Some gathered firewood, while others prepared food. A group of them sourced for a good location. Lei Xiu did not stay idle either. Together with Mo Nian, they caught fish in the sea to be made into dinner.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work. In no time, the celebratory feast commenced!

Lei Xiu and the mermaids all gathered at the beach, surrounding a bonfire. Warm sparks emanated from the fire, illuminating everyone's hearts.

Everyone laughed without a care in the world.

Fish were grilled as everyone filled their tummies with food that the mermaids had meticulously prepared. Mo Nian and some other mermaids stood up and began dancing.

These mermaids were born to dance after all. Their graceful figures swayed in the light of the bonfire, and for a moment, they looked like fairies. It was so beautiful! Even Lei Xiu was mesmerized.

It was not until late at night that the celebratory feast ended amidst everyone's joy and laughter.
