Volume 3 Chapter 147.1 - The Undercover Battle of the Dulles Isle of Sirens Part 1 (1/2)

One of the sub-islands on the eastern region of the New Moon Island – also known as Copperfield Island was the Dulles Isle. This location was a gathering place for the Sirens. Unlike the Obadiah Region which was occupied by the Ogres, this place was entirely filled by the Sirens. There were around three hundred thousand Sirens which could be categorized into two main types – flying and aquatic.

The flying type Sirens belonged to the more advanced Sirens. As strong swimmers, they were able to navigate the seas in addition to their ability to fly. There were only about sixty thousand of such flying type Sirens while the aquatic type Sires were the majority with at-least twenty-four thousand of them, and they made up the core strength of the species.

It was dawn on the third day. Bella and her dorm mates stood on the Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth’s back as they advanced towards the Dulles Isle. Under the cover of the New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea’s invisibility magic, the Sirens patrolling the skies did not notice the presence of these intruders.

The Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth moved swiftly and soundlessly while remaining unseen by the aquatic type Sirens patrolling the waters. There were a few Sirens who were a little more clever and realized that there were intruders within their territory. However, they were quickly dragged down into the darkest depths of the ocean and were permanently silenced by the elite Slime soldiers.

Besides Amy Beth, there were thousands of mutated Slime soldiers who were surrounding as she traveled through the water. These soldiers belonged to the Abyss Demonic King’s special forces which were able to move stealthily without being detected by the Sirens.

“Bella, is that the Dulles Isle? It looks just like a human city.”

“Lisha, I’m not sure either. Let’s proceed with more caution!”

The Dulles Isle was not small, it was roughly equivalent to one-third of the size of Copperfield Island. The Dulles Isle was covered with stone structures that were built in a mish-mash of architectural styles. As far as Bella could see, she was able to identify the architectural styles of every human empire.

Besides, there were many structures as well that Bella had never seen before. Among those that she could identify, some structures had been built in a similar style to the ones that Bella had seen in the ancient ruins of the Romanov Empire in the central region of the New Moon Island.

Various flags belonging to Demon Kings could be seen on the Dulles Isle. It seemed as if these flags were there to serve as a warning sign to anyone who wished to enter, to remind them that this city belonged to the Sirens and that there were no humans here. Before they went ashore, Bella asked Dorothea and Amy Beth, who were from the Dragon Race, to remain behind as the backup while she would venture into the island with Lisha and the others.

The closer they approached the Dulles Isle, the greater the feeling of trepidation grew in Bella’s heart. The isle was a maritime city with a designated harbor. There were ships of every kind docked at the harbor. Even though they were all made of wood, but the harbor was well equipped with various kinds of ships, from cargo ships to warships that were ready for battle.

Bella could see a multitude of humans on the docks. These humans were all well-built and strong young men. They were all nearly naked except for a piece of cloth that covered their private areas. These young men had all sorts of wounds from being whipped to stabbing scars, and judging from their weary looks, they must have been forced to do these menial tasks for quite some time now.

Standing beside the human slaves were many aquatic Sirens. The Sirens brandished their whips at them, forcing the slaves to keep working. If anyone of them slowed down, they would immediately receive a sound beating. These human slaves probably had been beaten into submission and such could not dare to fight back when one of their own was being beaten up.

“This is a slave island? Could it be possible… that the Siren King McMillan had a much higher IQ than the Two-Headed Ogre Nelson?”

Bella and her dorm mates chose to head ashore in an obscure corner of the harbor. A few mutated Slime soldiers had already gone ahead of them. The soldiers returned with some armor that the Siren sergeants wore. Their previous owners had already been ‘digested’ by the Slime soldiers.

Bella and the other girls changed into the heavy sergeant’s armor before removing the invisibility enchantments that Dorothea had placed on them. They began to make their way towards the highest point of the Dulles Isle. There was a tall tower-like structure at the peak and it was likely to be the Siren King McMillan’s mansion.

Following Bella and the others was a steady stream of Slime soldiers disguised as the Siren soldiers. As they approached the open area of the harbor, Bella already had hundreds of fake “Siren soldiers” behind her.
