"Set sail! Voyage!"
On the Salted Fish, the crew was excited; everyone knew this journey involved transcendent beings and treasures, and they all looked forward to it.
For Blue Star captains who ca to this world, the most anticipated thing was undoubtedly these two items.
Killing a transcendent being gives you a chance to obtain an Extraordinary Magic Stone from them; this was the earliest way to acquire such stones. The first transcendent in this world started the diverse transcendent era by slaying the first extraordinary being.
As for treasures, there’s no need to ntion that if you’re lucky, you might even find piles of Gold Coins in a treasure chest.
There are captains who, by finding a top-notch treasure, achieve financial freedom and reach the pinnacle of life.
However, any place capable of producing transcendent beings or nurturing treasure chests usually has terrible sea conditions.
Only sea regions containing imnse energy will give birth to these two types of existence.
"This ti, the destination is... the Cyan Tree Strait."
"Three thousand nautical miles from Qiyun Port, it’s the route that must be taken from the West Qinghai Sea Region to Qiyun Port."
"The primary dangers in the sea area include... ocean explosions, undercurrent traps, vortices, etc..."
"Recomnded ship defense energy level: 50..."
Even though the Salted Fish was still sailing in a Safe Sea Region that day, Luu Yuan, who works part-ti as a data analyst, had already logged in.
He had checked the forum regarding information about the Cyan Tree Strait over the past few days, and early this morning, he brought a small blackboard and gathered everyone on the deck for a small eting.
"What’s an ocean explosion?"
Hearing Luu Yuan’s words, Du Ran was baffled.
Luu Yuan glared at Du Ran, turned to look at the other crew mbers, and found them equally perplexed.
Luu Yuan was exasperated; don’t you dogs ever visit the forum?
"To put it simply, an ocean explosion occurs when the energy concentration underwater is too high, and two currents collide, causing energy turbulence and triggering an explosion."
Luu Yuan took out a printed diagram and showed it to everyone: "Look, early on, so clueless captain went out to explore before even reaching Level 10 and ended up getting blown to bits by an undercurrent explosion."
"So this ti, make sure the ship’s defense is around Level 50."
As he spoke, Luu Yuan’s gaze drifted over to Fang Yu.
Hint.jpg...
"Enough!" Fang Yu said casually, allowing the crew to breathe a sigh of relief.
In the sea ship, besides the Alchemy Enchantnt update of [Thick Armor Breathing], there was the original [Thick Armor] upgrade.
The defense energy level of the [Thick Armor] upgrade is 5X the captain’s energy level, and any attack below this level has no effect on the ship.
Not quite 50 points, but paired with [Thick Armor Breathing], it’s sufficient.
As Fang Yu listened to Luu Yuan’s pre-battle analysis, he looked into the ship.
There were six new faces onboard the ship.
These new crew mbers were recruited by Ma at Qiyun Port, primarily for operating ship cannons. Since the ship had two more cannons, Luo Kuan alone couldn’t handle it all.
The other four were added according to the specifications of four teams.
However, the crew recruited by Ma isn’t new; they’re seasoned sailors with certain levels.
It’s normal since the world is fraught with danger, making captain casualties common.
When a captain perishes, these sailors helplessly return to the job market at a high level, competing with rookies for job opportunities.
It’s like the analogy of a 35-year-old programr competing with a 20-year-old for a delivery job.
It’s worth noting...
The price for these individuals is much higher than the rookies; the two operating the cannons are Level 8 and 9 sailors, charging 2000 Copper Coins per month.
This rate is just the market price.
As the crew level up, their salaries naturally go higher.
It’s impossible for a high-level sailor to have the sa recruitnt cost as a rookie; otherwise, the market would be in chaos.
Yet Ma and the others never ntioned wanting a raise to Fang Yu.
Why bother asking for more?
By following Fang Yu, they enjoy a good life, leveling up twice every three days isn’t an issue.
Working on the Salted Fish, the monthly salary is really only the basic inco, as the main earnings co from various bonuses.
This makes the seasoned sailors not pay much attention to base pay.
"Captain, we’re about to exit the Safe Sea Region!"
At this ti, Ma said to Fang Yu, bringing him back to his senses. He looked out at the current-laden sea ahead and grinned broadly, waving his hand:
"Accelerate forward!"
...
"Buzz!"
The ship broke through the wind and waves, entering the non-safe sea area.
The familiar turbulence and sea breeze ca rushing back, but now the crew on the Salted Fish had grown accustod to the nonsafe sea conditions, feeling unfazed by the waves.
Fang Yu smiled at the gloomy sea ahead and, without further ado, tore up the Basic Black Market Cargo Ship Pass in his hand!
The familiar fog and old, worn-out ship reappeared. The crew on the Salted Fish was indifferent, looking like "go, quick co back," making Fang Yu scratch his head.
This group of dogs adapts quite well...
....
"eting again, Captain!"
The tall man appeared in front of Fang Yu again, smiling and speaking softly: "What item is the captain planning to purchase this ti?"
Fang Yu followed the man, entering the familiar black market cargo ship.
After passing the area selling female slaves, Fang Yu subconsciously glanced at the cages holding them.
Oh? They’ve changed?
It looks like there are plenty of big investors willing to buy female slaves.
This item is probably a hot commodity in the black market.
"Huh?"
At this mont, Fang Yu spotted a familiar na listed on an iron cage.
Category: West Qinghai Sea Mafa Island Alien Female Slave
West Qinghai Sea again?
The last alien female slave also ca from the West Qinghai Sea.
And the Ocean Court investor he’s supposed to save this ti is also from the West Qinghai Sea, planning to head to Qiyun Port.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn’t help but curiously ask:
"I see many alien female slaves co from West Qinghai Sea, is there so kind of turmoil there recently? Why else would there be so many alien won captured and enslaved?"
The man under the black robe displayed a slightly rigid smile and spoke softly, "Sir, you have a Basic Black Market Cargo Ship Pass, and the purchase limit is five hundred thousand Copper Coins."
"Alien female slaves are not within your purchasable range, so you’re not authorized to inquire about product details."
"Of course... if you opt to buy the information, for just thirty thousand Copper Coins, I’ll tell you."
Fang Yu: ...
