CHAPTER 172: CHAPTER 151: RETURN IN FORCE

Upon hearing the words, without a second thought, nodded directly and agreed immediately to lend 200 naval vessels, along with three trans-ocean siege cannons and 1,000 Alien soldiers, all handed over to Zhang Dong.

Gazing at the three war masterpieces that had been reinforced twice and enchanted once—the trans-ocean siege cannons, Li Yuansheng was overjoyed.

ships, 3 trans-ocean siege cannons, 1,000 Alien soldiers, plus the 12 ships he originally had remaining.

With such a configuration, not to mention capturing Lvchun Island.

Even an island five times larger than Lvchun Island with defenses five times stronger could be directly flattened!

The two then discussed some details about besieging Nanchuan Island after capturing Lvchun Island.

Not to mention Zhang Dong, even Li Yuansheng, who has seen the strength of Fang Yu and others, did not think Lvchun Island was anything under the powerful strength of 200 warships.

Capturing Lvchun Island was just a matter of convenience.

For the two, the real tough nut to crack is Nanchuan Island, which has 20 times more mineral resources and is 30 times larger than Lvchun Island.

This is the truly strategic location. Once captured, there will be a continuous flow of sea minerals transported to the military factories, providing immense help to the main battleground in the West Qinghai Sea Region.

By then, no matter how Li Yuansheng was sidelined, gaining favor again under the influence of military merit was only a matter of time.

Everything went smoothly, and Li Yuansheng forgot his previous defeat.

After resting at Zhang Dong’s camp for a day, he couldn’t wait to lead the 200 warships lent by Zhang Dong and the war machines, setting sail once more!

The main fleet... headed towards Lvchun Island!

...

Meanwhile, over at Lvchun Island, the crew members, after a night’s rest, were full of energy.

Fang Yu and others took over Shi Jun’s shift, beginning to patrol around Lvchun Island in his place.

As for Shi Jun, this liver emperor has not yet trained to the point of not needing sleep at all.

On the contrary, the more of a liver emperor he is, the more he cherishes any opportunity to rest.

Once relieved, Shi Jun’s entire ship entered a state of rest.

Nobody disturbed Shi Jun, and everyone quietly performed their tasks.

It’s worth mentioning...

Fang Yu’s military rank, after approval by Kong Huaao, has successfully been upgraded to: E-level Corporal.

The military’s force level isn’t simply ranked as D, E, F, and so on.

There are subdivisions within them.

For example, E-level represents the non-commissioned officer level.

But the non-commissioned officer level is further divided into Senior Corporal, Corporal, and Junior Corporal.

Only by upgrading to Senior Corporal and breaking through from there to become a Second Lieutenant, will his force level upgrade from E-level to D-level.

Currently, within the E-level, Fang Yu still has three grades to cross.

Military Rank: E-level Corporal (474/700)

It’s not bad; at least the current military achievements have reached 474. As long as he participates in one or two more battles, he might be able to level up twice.

Directly from Corporal, promoted to Senior Corporal.

...

And apart from the military rank, Fang Yu also upgraded his Level to 17 early the next day.

[Lord Level: 17 (48600/50000)]

Fang Yu glanced at his remaining experience, with a strange expression.

Well, after leveling up this time, he is just over a thousand experience points away from the next hit.

It’s just a matter of sinking one more ship.

But who would have thought...

It was just one ship short, causing Fang Yu’s experience to be unable to level up twice in two days.

Almost triggering his obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Forget it, Fang Yu calmed his thoughts.

This time, the team has been guarding Lvchun Island for four days, and there are still three days left.

There’s still a chance to gain experience.

Once they return to Qiyun Port, leveling up to 18 shouldn’t be a problem.

With that said, without further ado, Fang Yu rolled his Dice directly.

The Dice spun in the void and finally landed on a number:

3!

With the roll of the Dice, the 1 Lord Point on the panel became 3 points.

Without hesitation, Fang Yu directly invested one point on himself.

Lord Ability Level: 14.6→15.6

As for the remaining two points, Fang Yu thought for a moment and decided to invest one point in Luo Kuan, directly increasing Luo Kuan’s elite points to 2.

This guy is the main gunner of the ship.

The improvement of his energy and ability levels has a significant impact on the combat power of the ship’s cannons.

If Luo Kuan’s Lord Points can reach 5, he can unlock the second leader skill that enhances all members.

His first leader skill increases the accuracy and firearm proficiency of all members.

Now, after being invested, this skill naturally grows.

And for a crew member with a talent for warfare, the second leader skill that enhances all members is often an attack-type enhancement.

If it can be unlocked by then, the long-range capabilities of all members will be taken to another level.

As for the last Lord Point, Fang Yu plans to invest in the ship’s cannon—enchantment level.

On the Salted Fish, there are three enchantment abilities that can be invested in with Lord Points.

Thick Armor Breathing, and the enchantments of the two ship cannons.

Currently, Thick Armor Breathing has reached its investment limit and can no longer be invested in further.

As for the other two ship cannon enchantment investments, both have only had two points invested.

There is still room for two more points of investment with Lord Points.

Fang Yu didn’t hesitate, directly choosing to invest in the enchantment of the Thunderfire Cannon.

With 1 Lord Point infused in the enchantment of the Thunderfire Cannon, various stats of the Thunderfire Cannon changed as follows:
