"Isn’t that the Lighthouse Association’s ship?"
Fang Yu mumbled, his gaze fixed on the ship ahead.
The ship in front clearly bore marks of illegal modifications, with several distinctive patterns hanging on the sea vessel.
A pattern of a lighthouse—it was indeed the symbol of the Lighthouse Association.
Could these more than ten ships be the Lighthouse Association’s sea vessels?
"Hmm?"
At this mont, Fang Yu’s eyes narrowed, carefully observing the dozen sea ships.
Four of the ships appeared distinctly different from the other Lighthouse Association vessels.
These four ships belonged to the Blue Star Captains!
The Blue Star Captains’ vessels were easy to identify.
They were like ships filled with equipnt slots, with slots neatly lined up, extrely conspicuous.
So of the slots were empty, not yet modified.
But so slots had already been fitted with cannons, remote machine guns, etc.
This was obviously the signature vessel of the Blue Star Captains.
"Are those the four sneaky old guys?"
Fang Yu’s eyes narrowed as he suddenly recognized the four sea ships that he had encountered before on Sea Ore Island belonging to those four old captains.
These four old captains, without a doubt, were all subordinates of Wang Chen, which ant they were considered part of the Ji Clan Trading Association’s power, like himself.
Watching these four old captains now, following alongside the Lighthouse Association’s ships, transporting sothing.
The mont he saw these sea vessels, Fang Yu quietly activated the Sea Ship Invisibility Scroll, rging his Salted Fish into the darkness.
Their ship, even if approaching, would hardly notice Fang Yu’s vessel unless they collided head-on.
Without a word, the mont his sea vessel turned invisible, Fang Yu quietly steered the ship to follow behind the convoy of ships.
The Ji Clan Trading Association’s rchant vessels, alongside the Lighthouse Association’s cargo ships, were transporting sothing toward the West Qinghai Sea Region.
Fang Yu took a deep breath, calculating in his mind, and quickly called Luo Kuan over.
"What’s up, Captain?"
Luo Kuan felt a bit uneasy; could it be the captain planned to split the gambling gains this ti?
But clearly, Luo Kuan overthought. Fang Yu simply reached out, pointing toward the distant fleet, and said to Luo Kuan, "Use your Alchemy Eye to record what’s in front, scan what’s in their cargo boxes and see what’s inside."
Luo Kuan looked toward the distant fleet and suddenly froze.
Being this close, is it really okay?
But it was evident that at this mont, the Salted Fish was in a special state, sothing Luo Kuan could also sense.
Without hesitation, he imdiately activated the Alchemy Eye, his gaze fixed on the ships ahead, recording the vessels in front of him.
Everything recorded through his Alchemy Eye could be translated into purchasable Alchemy technology products, etched and exported, effectively acting like a cara.
No... more advanced than a cara because the Alchemy Eye could also scan the contents of the cargo hold...
"It’s firearms, lots of heavy weapons, scrolls, energy blocks, Captain!"
Luo Kuan said in a low voice, his tone sowhat grim.
"So it’s these things after all..."
Fang Yu murmured softly, "It’s all recorded, right?"
Luo Kuan nodded.
Since it was all docunted...
Without another word, Fang Yu steered the Salted Fish, imdiately turning to leave.
The invisibility from the scroll only lasted 10 minutes; lingering too close without a chance to retreat would surely lead to detection.
With more than ten cargo ships and four Blue Star Captains, getting discovered would be troubleso.
As long as the images were captured and recorded, it was enough.
Without another word, Fang Yu set the Salted Fish sailing away in the opposite direction from those cargo vessels.
After a while, when the effect of invisibility wore off, the fleet of cargo ships gradually disappeared from Fang Yu’s sight.
"Alright, let’s head back... Let’s hope the Ji Clan Trading Association isn’t up to any nonsense."
Fang Yu sighed; the Ji Clan Trading Association better not ss around; getting implicated in transporting military arms to insurrectionist warlords would definitely bring consequences.
He’d worked hard to secure the D-level Captain power level in the Ji Clan Trading Association; he didn’t want it to disappear like that.
Looks like he should have a good talk with Mr. Lu back in Qiyun Port...
...
Return voyage!
Two out of the five treasure maps had already unearthed treasures, while the remaining three still lay at so distance from here, Fang Yu noted.
Forget it, let’s just dig up these two treasures this ti; going for all of them would delay too much ti.
Besides, he wanted to return to Qiyun Port quickly to see the outco of Wang Chen’s trial.
"Vroom!"
The Salted Fish roared as it sped toward Qiyun Port.
During the two-day journey back, Fang Yu rolled the Mysterious Egg Dice once and the 3000 Silver Coin Dice Lin Kemian gave him once.
The final results were:
Treasure Chest: 4 points
Experience: 500 → 2000 (Total Experience: 13800/13000)
Unknown Egg: 1 → 4
The experience was entirely sufficient for leveling up.
But Fang Yu had no extra dice rolls left and could only wait until returning to Qiyun Port to upgrade.
And from Lin Kemian’s 3000 silver coins, the dice roll resulted in: 3!
Suddenly, wealth increased to 9120 silver coins (including 120,000 previously owned Copper Coins).
Suddenly being this affluent, and with the extra scrolls and eggs not yet sold.
If they were sold, wealth could easily exceed 10,000 silver coins.
Fang Yu took a deep breath, overjoyed at such wealth; he could easily afford significant upgrades to his sea vessel and increase his equipnt onboard.
The Salted Fish returned fully loaded, Fang Yu returning with great earnings, though his primary concern remained the experience outco this ti.
Hoping the experience gained from the F-level Ocean Court forces won’t be disappointing.
Moreover...
Fang Yu glanced at his crew; the earliest mbers, like Du Ran and others, would likely reach Level 10 after settling the task experience this ti.
When crew mbers reached Level 10, so changes would occur.
Talents upgraded from primary to interdiate, granting significant boosts to individual abilities.
Take Du Ran, for example; his strength would dramatically increase, and with the talent upgrade, it would also boost his Titan Bloodline, equivalent to leveling up the Titan Bloodline as well.
Luu Yuan was the sa.
Previously, when swimming in the ocean, Fang Yu was slightly faster than Luu Yuan, but once Luu Yuan’s talent upgraded to interdiate, Fang Yu would be completely outmatched.
The improvent for a Lord was balanced and comprehensive.
In contrast, crew mbers’ improvents centered on their talents, receiving specialization in individual abilities.
As the crew’s talents gradually improved, the future sea vessel concept of "each performing their own duties" and "different functional servicen" would increasingly beco apparent.
