Spain, a country located on the southwest portion of Europe, a constitutional monarchy.

In recent history, Spain was an important cultural ground. During the Renaissance, it was the strongest country in Europe. During the 15th century mid to the end of the 16th century, Spain affected the globe and Spanish became the second most used language, only behind English.

Spain had over four million players, it also had land aplenty, being considered a strong country even in Europe. In comparison, the Singapore that Shanhai City destroyed seemed insignificant.

No matter how confident Ouyang Shuo felt, he was not crazy enough to think that he could take down Spain in one swoop.

He started the country war because he had no other choice.

Ouyang Shuo's goal was not to let the country war turn into a full-scale war but also to wake up and hurt the Spanish Invincible Squadron, making them respect Shanhai City.

In truth, this matter would be incredibly difficult.

The voyage squadron only had one division, and whether they could even defeat the Spanish Invincible Squadron was a question. Not to mention after the country war started, there would be the addition of a large number of players.

For the voyage squadron to survive would be considered highly fortunate.

Ouyang Shuo was not a rash person. When he destroyed the first ship, he actually did it on the fly and did not think too much. But when he decided to sink the other 20, Ouyang Shuo already had a plan.

His trump card was Atlantis.

The large-scale storyline quest Lost City of Atlantis had wrapped in more than 100 thousand players. However, Ouyang Shuo was confident about completing it all by himself.

Not to mention the quest rewards, just the reappearance of Atlantis would totally change the situation.

That night, Ouyang Shuo sat on a normal looking turreted boat, bringing little Green and the Divine Martial Guards to leave the Gibraltar Straits and head toward the ocean region where Atlantis was located.

Ouyang Shuo kept his calm, but the Spanish players exploded.

The Spanish players could not even imagine that the Shanhai City Squadron would have the courage to start a country war. When they heard that 20 warships were sunk, and Gibraltar Port was occupied, they were furious and demanded revenge.

At the end of the 16th century, the Spanish Invincible Squadron was crushed by the English Navy led by a pirate born Drake. From then on, Spain lost its position as the strongest naval country.

During the middle of the 17th century, in the battle for the king's succession, Spain gave Gibraltar to England. Even until the 21st century, Gibraltar was still under England's control.

Spain had tried to get back Gibraltar from England along but their efforts bore no fruit. So, one could say that Gibraltar was always a scar to the Spanish hearts.

Gaia had used geography to place Gibraltar under Spanish control, but now, Shanhai City had occupied it. All of a sudden, it triggered their sensitive emotions.

”Make the arrogant easterners pay!”

”Chase Shanhai City out of the Mediterranean!” The Spanish players hollered.

Spain had a long shoreline; more than half of the country border was a shoreline. Along with their naval history, the strong Spanish Lords all had territories next to the ocean.

The Spanish Invincible Squadron was just a title and did not point to a specific squadron. That was because there were no less than 30 squadrons under the Spanish Lords. Apart from that, even adventure gamemode players would build squadrons to go out to sea. The lucky Gerald Pick was the guild leader of a small mercenary guild.

The next morning, the various squadrons all gathered toward the Gibraltar Straits.

Shanhai City had occupied Gibraltar Port. The voyage squadron led by Zheng He naturally were not prepared to go start a head on battle with the Spanish Navy. Such action would be too stupid, and they would definitely stand no chance.

Zheng He's strategy was to make use of the superior mobility and flexibility of their ships to launch sneak attacks.

In a short time, both squadrons would be neck and neck.

Gibraltar Straits, nameless region.

Under the guidance of Little Green, the turreted boat finally reached its destination. Little Green was truly a god beast subspecies, after applying medicine, its wounds had stabilized overnight, and it could head into the water once more.

As he was not sure of the situation at the bottom of the ocean, Ouyang Shuo did not dare go alone. Hence, he needed to let Little Green dive down once more and search for more underwater breathing devices.

One must not simply look at its amazing function, as it was an incredibly common in Atlantis. Atlantis worshipped the sea god Poseidon. Hence, a lot of their technology pertained to the ocean.

The underwater breathing device was just one small item.

When Atlantis sank into the ocean, such devices were scattered in the rubble everywhere.

If players wanted to join the large-scale storyline quest, they needed to obtain one underwater breathing device, personally diving down and entering the ruins.
