Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 412 - 234: Joining Forces to Set the Stage? (Part 2)
He... coupled with the sea ship, is probably enough to rival 3-4 warships!
Maybe even more.
"You really are a monster... Only by stepping out of the Blue Star Captain system’s perspective to look at you, can one realize how terrifying you are..."
Guan Xinxue murmured.
Fang Yu: ???
What’s going on?
Fang Yu scratched his head, not understanding why Guan Xinxue suddenly said this. He shook his head, then spoke: "How’s the situation on Hua Yu’s side? After that Divine Essence incident, what was the reaction inside the Divine Hall?"
"After that, the Divine Hall realized that there was an infiltrator among the Divine Envoys, so outwardly, everyone remained united, but in reality, they are all wary and suspicious of each other, with differing intentions. Duorong’s military has a great opportunity."
Guan Xinxue spoke with a relaxed tone, seeming to think it was good news and confident that Duorong’s military could eradicate the Divine Hall.
"Duorong’s military has a great opportunity?"
Fang Yu shook his head with a smile: "Both sides are equally matched, neither should laugh at the other."
Guan Xinxue was stunned: "What’s the situation?"
Fang Yu spoke softly, sharing with Guan Xinxue the issue with Meng Biao’s identity.
After hearing this, Guan Xinxue was obviously stunned, then murmured: "So, both sides have internal troubles..."
Fang Yu glanced at Guan Xinxue, wanting to speak but hesitated.
Rather than saying it’s Duorong’s internal problem, it’s more like the entire incident is guided by the Peacekeeping Council, with them being the real culprits.
Yet, obviously, information about the Peacekeeping Council among the people present is vague and not well-known.
This council is very mysterious, and has only shown a small part of itself so far.
Fang Yu naturally could only focus on the war before him.
"Perhaps!"
Just then, Guan Xinxue’s eyes lit up, and she said to Fang Yu: "We can turn their scheme on them and create a plan within a plan."
"A plan within a plan?" Fang Yu looked at Guan Xinxue curiously.
"Yes, Meng Biao wants to get insider information from you, right? Hua Yu has a mortal enemy, who’s been targeting Hua Yu inside the Divine Hall, wanting to eliminate him."
"If we guide this well, making Meng Biao believe the infiltrator is Hua Yu’s mortal enemy, perhaps we can achieve a double victory, also weakening the forces within the Divine Hall."
Listening to Guan Xinxue’s words, Fang Yu’s expression stirred.
"Mortal enemy?"
"It’s another Divine Envoy, originally in the Sin Domain, who didn’t get along with Hua Yu, and even after leaving, there’s constant conflict between their respective affiliations."
"This person might ruin things, so Hua Yu wants you to help set him up to be killed, and coincidentally, you are facing the issue of Meng Biao’s suspicions, so I thought maybe these two matters could be linked."
Guan Xinxue glanced at Fang Yu.
She knew Fang Yu was very skilled in strategizing; during the Sea Mine Battle, Fang Yu easily influenced the outcome with a flick of his hand.
If Fang Yu was willing to handle the planning, it could potentially be a win-win.
"Connected? Perhaps, but I need to know a lot of detailed information, this matter still requires long-term planning."
Fang Yu spoke softly.
"Fortunately, I brought an alchemy device, Hua Yu’s Doppelganger was consumed in the last operation, he can’t gather another one quickly. There’s only this alchemy device, and you can use it to contact Hua Yu."
While saying this, Guan Xinxue took out a round alchemy device from her chest and handed it to Fang Yu.
Fang Yu received it, sensing carefully, and felt the complex energy-level fluctuation inside this device, which seemed to contain intricate and fine alchemy seal patterns, allowing remote communication with Hua Yu through it.
"This thing... isn’t it a phone?"
Fang Yu was a bit surprised.
"Consider it a phone, but it can’t be broadly used; both users need to have very strong energy-level power, ordinary people can’t use it."
Since becoming an alchemy captain, Guan Xinxue’s personality has become much more reserved, lacking the former cheerfulness.
Her speech is almost entirely business-like.
But Fang Yu didn’t mind this, and he looked up at Guan Xinxue, then curiously asked: "It seemed earlier Hua Yu chased his Doppelganger to eliminate the threat, what was the outcome?"
"Not successful."
Guan Xinxue shook her head, speaking softly: "Yes, this is also the second thing Hua Yu asked me to tell you."
"That Doppelganger absorbed three cans of Divine Essence, already possessing nearly eighty percent of Hua Yu’s power, and due to its power being identical to Hua Yu’s, the current Hua Yu can’t handle the runaway Doppelganger."
In Fang Yu’s mind, he couldn’t help but recall the alchemy Doppelganger—Qian Luan—who unleashed power before, helping him escape that sea area.
According to Hua Yu, once an alchemy Doppelganger gains its own consciousness, it quickly becomes distorted and starts to blacken, becoming a hidden threat.
Although Qian Luan’s action did indeed help him escape that sea area at the time, Fang Yu couldn’t guarantee Qian Luan wouldn’t turn out as Hua Yu predicted afterward.
Hearing Guan Xinxue relay Hua Yu’s thoughts, Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked directly: "Just say it, what does Hua Yu want me to do? Help him deal with the threat?"
"Not really."
Guan Xinxue shook her head, then spoke: "Hua Yu wants to borrow a can of Divine Essence from you, he needs to absorb one to make his life perfect."
"Once perfect, he’ll have abilities far beyond other Divine Envoys, being even more adept and capable of handling the Doppelganger threat."
Divine Essence?
Fang Yu subconsciously glanced at his panel space.
Currently, in Fang Yu’s panel space, there are four cans of Divine Essence lying quietly.
Each can is filled with rich energy-level fluctuation aura, invaluable.
Previously, Fang Yu intended to absorb them all at once, to quickly enable the third phase of soul transformation for the sea ship, but later discovered the absorption had reached saturation, requiring special opportunities and methods to initiate the third phase.
Hence, there are still four cans of Divine Essence, neatly arranged in his panel space.
"Alright!"
Guan Xinxue was a bit surprised; Fang Yu didn’t hesitate and directly took out a can of Divine Essence from his panel space, handing it to Guan Xinxue: "No need to say it’s a loan, just give this can of Divine Essence directly to Hua Yu."
"He lost three cans of Divine Essence to help me retreat successfully earlier. Giving him another is fine; Hua Yu should gain some benefits from this operation."
Guan Xinxue was slightly stunned, feeling somewhat incredulous internally.
This is Divine Essence... something countless people would mobilize troops and fight bloodily to obtain.
Also, a must-have item for a Warship Level Captain wanting to advance to a Warship Level Captain.
Just giving it away without batting an eye?
Taking the Divine Essence, Guan Xinxue looked deeply at Fang Yu, then spoke softly: "I now understand why all sides were willing to cooperate with you during the Sea Mine Battle."
Fang Yu smiled, not saying much. Ensuring that those who cooperated with him don’t lose out has always been his principle in this world. He believes personal credibility far exceeds the value of Divine Essence.
Guan Xinxue and Fang Yu continued to communicate softly, discussing the details of this battle.
Afterward, Guan Xinxue nodded to Fang Yu, then got up and leapt directly into the sea below, her form moving swiftly, vanishing instantly.
Fang Yu watched and put the alchemy tool into his panel space, then pushed open the captain’s cabin door and looked into the distance.
In the distance, the Sharp Blade Army continued eradicating the flesh and blood evil beasts and invading ships.
Once all the invaders are cleared, Fang Yu can lead the Sharp Blade Army back to Southeast Stone Island to report, and also start planning the collaboration with Hua Yu.
Though the reward for this mission might be rather ordinary.
But a little meat is still meat, and with the role of Fang Yu’s military rank and the Dice, it won’t be too bad, just connecting with Guan Xinxue separately was good.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Fang Yu frowned and looked around.
Flesh-and-blood warships, evil beasts.
Gone.
The Sharp Blade Army is also gone! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
The sea breeze gently blew, and the surroundings were silent, not even a sea bird, unsettling in its stillness.
At this moment, a distant sea ship floated towards the Salted Fish.
This sea ship was not a warship but similar to the Salted Fish, a warship level vessel.
On its deck, Fang Yu dimly saw a young man in a white sailor suit standing upright, looking at him with indifferent eyes.
For some reason, upon seeing this young man, a name quietly emerged in Fang Yu’s mind...
