CHAPTER 170: CHAPTER 150: THE POWER OF ONE SHOT, TOTAL ROUT

As for those 12 captured sea ships...

Everyone looked at each other.

"Guys... does anyone have a Soul Contract?"

After a while, Shi Jun couldn’t help but ask.

"Uh..."

Everyone shook their heads: "No..."

The Soul Contract is almost the treasure pursued by captains after level 40.

The so-called Soul Contract allows a captain to bind an additional auxiliary sea ship.

However, the auxiliary ship’s energy level and effects, including recruited crew members, do not share the main ship’s effects, and the bound ship cannot evolve like the main ship.

This is one direction to expand a captain’s ability, but the Soul Contract is very precious...

Its value is not lower than that of an Intermediate Radiant Star Stone, and obtaining it is far more difficult than acquiring an Intermediate Radiant Star Stone.

Who would be willing to use a precious Soul Contract to bind a vessel?

A warship maybe, but not likely for anything else.

Besides...

Right now, no one has a Soul Contract, so there’s no opportunity to bind them.

This means the only use for these sea ship spoils in front of us is...

"Sell them!"

Tang Yuan shook his head and then addressed everyone: "I’ll contact a reliable channel to sell all these sea ships."

"The agency fee will be about thirty percent; we can split the remaining sales equally?"

"Okay!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, with no objections.

Since they can’t bind them, selling them and splitting the money is the best way for everyone.

...

After determining how to handle the spoils, everyone returned to their ships to rest and reorganize.

Of course, those who needed to patrol continued to do so as usual.

Even though the warlord’s captain was just defeated, and they shouldn’t come back for a while, any war can end badly if you’re careless.

Being cautious is always right.

Watching Shi Jun and others continue their patrol, Fang Yu and the others felt slightly relieved.

Fang Yu docked the ship at the shore and stayed in the captain’s cabin alone, looking at his panel.

[Lord Level: 16 (88600/40000)]

Both destroying enemy ships and capturing them are counted for rewards on the panel.

Fang Yu and the others dealt with a total of 30 ships this time.

On average, each ship brought 2000 experience points to everyone, translating to 60,000 experience points received. (Shi Jun and Tang Yuan, having higher military ranks, gained 2500 experience points per kill.)

However, Fang Yu had a 20% experience boost solely for being the main line quest trigger.

So, the crew on the Salted Fish actually received 72,000 experience points.

With this generous experience reward, everyone on the Salted Fish increased their levels by an average of two levels.

It was a significant boost.

As for Fang Yu...

During this, he once threw the dice, and got a roll of 5, offering an additional reward of 9600 points.

Therefore, the total experience Fang Yu gained from this event was 81,600.

It was more than enough for Fang Yu to raise his level to 17.

However, since today’s dice roll opportunity had been used, Fang Yu chose not to continue rolling, preferring to hold his level and upgrade tomorrow.

Apart from the experience, there were also various consumables like scrolls and potions, which Fang Yu casually stored in the panel space to use when needed.

Lastly... there was military merit!

Destroying a ship rewarded 10 points of military merit per ship.

ships, plus 5 dice roll points, totaled 340 military merit points.

Adding military merit gained from capturing prisoners and the additional 20% main line task reward.

Fang Yu now had enough military merit to upgrade:

Military: F-Level Private First Class (974/500)

The next level from F-Level Private First Class is E-Level Sergeant, where the base experience per destroyed ship increases from 2000 to 2500 points.

However, rank promotion requires reporting to the superior.

Fang Yu has already sent his promotion application to Captain Kong Huaao, and once Kong Huaao approves, Fang Yu’s military influence level will officially rise.

Subsequent mission rewards will also correspondingly rise further.

Overall improvement left Fang Yu very satisfied.

The experience gained from executing the main line quest was certainly abundant.

Moreover...

That was just the reward for destroying sea ships.

When everyone finishes guarding the island, there will be another task settlement.

The task settlement reward at that time will be truly substantial.

...

All the ships went into a rest period, and the crew, having frequently used their Extraordinary Abilities during the battle, began yawning and fell asleep quickly.

Especially Luo Kuan.

The enhanced cannon efficiency from ship Soul Transformation, although greatly improved, was also a tremendous burden for the crew.

Each cannon shot cost Luo Kuan approximately double the stamina of an ordinary crew member.

If not for forcefully enduring with energy potions, Luo Kuan couldn’t have sustained such an intense battle.

Now that the war state ended, many crew members immediately fell asleep on the spot.

Fang Yu glanced at Shi Jun and the others on their patrol, surprised to find that the crew aboard Shi Jun’s ship were still spirited, without any sign of drowsiness.

After the same warfare, other crews had already collapsed into deep sleep, seeking rest.

Yet Shi Jun’s crew managed to continue patrolling.

Their energy was well above other crews.

Seeing this scene, Fang Yu felt respectful:

"Thank you for your hard work. If you need energy potions, feel free to say so. Share it around, and when the other crew members are rested, they can switch shifts timely."

"No problem! We always keep enough energy potions in stock." Shi Jun grinned, carelessly shaking his head: "This level of intensity is nothing, I’ve once stayed awake for three days straight."

"You know, this is also a kind of training. If energy could be measured, my crew’s upper limit would surely be higher than that of other crews!"

Shi Jun was very proud; being a workaholic meant handling things with such ease.

Listening to Shi Jun, Fang Yu couldn’t help but smile.

There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names; indeed, Shi Jun’s ship has some surprising mettle.

It’s good to have Shi Jun patrolling...

As Fang Yu mused, his gaze turned to the distant sea.

He couldn’t shake the feeling that letting Li Yuansheng go this time meant Li Yuansheng might not relent easily.

It’s only a matter of time before he strikes back.

If Li Yuansheng attacks again, he’ll be much more familiar with Fang Yu and his group.

Then he will inevitably come with more powerful troops to attack together.

Lvchun Island... perhaps another fierce battle awaits...
