Chapter 830: 262. Speed Up Underwater_4
“The Mantas Family has not only monopolized Subregion No.13-16. Look over there, Denise, Subsea Areas No.17-20 have also been marked with the Mantas Family’s emblem.”
Denise moved to the other side of the porthole and saw the family emblem projected into the sky by a magical device.
At this point, Denise became somewhat numb, no longer as excited as before:
“To monopolize eight subsea regions would require eight treasure hunting fleets. That’s nearly 500 magical yachts and more than 80 medium and small-sized magical machinery ships. Hmm, the Mantas Family really is as wealthy as the rumors say. How many gold coins can they have, tens of billions?”
Noland Lee raised his hand and rubbed Denise’s cheek, a subtle curve forming at the corner of his mouth:
“The Mantas Family can have so much money simply because they haven’t encountered their true natural enemy yet.”
“Natural enemy?” Denise was a bit puzzled:
“Hmm… are you talking about powerful wizards?”
“You could say that,” Noland Lee said with a smile, neither confirming nor denying, as he brushed past the subject and continued to control the magic yacht.
…
…
…
The areas where the Dragon Clan treasure might fall are not limited to Subregion No.13-20 that Noland Lee saw.
After Noland Lee stopped the magic yacht in a deserted underwater area, he surveyed the surroundings thoroughly with “Mind View.”
The Southern Sea Zone of the entire Starfall Sea, which encompasses Subsea Area 1 to 36, all fell within the range of where the Dragon Clan treasure could drop.
It was a very vast range.
Even if the Mantas Family was incredibly wealthy, they couldn’t possibly monopolize all 36 subsea regions.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
Only the areas from Subregion No.13 to No.22—a total of 10 subsea regions—had been taken over by the Mantas Family.
The remaining areas had fallen into the hands of various wizard forces.
Many medium and small wizard forces could only stand outside the range where the Dragon Clan treasure fell, hoping that the powers monopolizing the regions would let some “small fish” slip through to them.
Overall, the ownership status of the regions where treasures fell directly reflected the strengths and weaknesses of the forces around the Suman Archipelago.
The Charnel Family, the Hayden Family, and the Mantas Family each occupied 10 subsea regions.
The Pangula Family was absent from tonight’s feast.
Which was normal.
That guy Dickler Fegan had squandered all his money and couldn’t possibly organize a proper fleet to join the excitement.
The remaining 6 subsea areas slipped out of the Pangula Family’s hands and fell into those of several large wizard forces.
It’s worth mentioning that the Deep Sea Branch of Hotams wouldn’t directly participate in this event.
Since they surpass all other forces in deep-sea expertise, if the Deep Sea Branch showed up, no one else would get a share at all.
