Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls - Chapter 570 - 295: Ten Thousand Troops Gem, Combined Effect_2

Chapter 570: Chapter 295: Ten Thousand Troops Gem, Combined Effect_2

At this moment, unexpectedly, the task’s reward delivered it into Fang Yu’s hands.

“Is this… what the old man intended?”

Fang Yu pondered in his heart.

Normally, items like Alchemy Divine Artifacts and the Ocean Scripture wouldn’t be standard rewards for the Blue Star Captain. Only because Fang Yu was highly regarded by the old man did he offer these rewards to Fang Yu for nurturing him.

Holding the Ten Thousand Armies Gem in his hand, Fang Yu secretly speculated.

The old man probably knew after acquiring the Alchemy Divine Artifact [Alchemy Armor] and thus gave [Ten Thousand Armies Gem] to him.

Because the [Alchemy Armor] and [Ten Thousand Armies Gem] have a special resonance effect.

[Ten Thousand Armies Gem]

Item Attribute: Divine Alchemy Tool #582

Item Effect:

Effect 1: [Ten Thousand Armies Space]

— Can create a three-cubic-kilometer space, sending soldiers into this space.

Effect 2: [Heavenly Troops]

— When releasing soldiers from the space, their power level is enhanced by 20% for 30 seconds.

— When releasing soldiers from the space, they have a 2-second semi-ethereal state, immune to physical attacks.

Special linkage effect (Activated):

[Airdrop Troops]: Soldiers clad in Alchemy Armor can teleport instantly to any permitted area within 2 minutes (special law areas excluded), and upon teleportation, they gain 50% of the [Heavenly Troops] effect.

Range: Centered on the Ten Thousand Armies Gem, with a 5 nautical mile range.

Seeing the effect of the Ten Thousand Armies Gem, especially its linkage with the Alchemy Armor, Fang Yu’s eyes lit up.

Incredible!

Fang Yu’s heart pounded.

Soldiers wearing Alchemy Armor can teleport to any area on the battlefield.

Unless obstructed by powers of the law, no shield, hard material, or anything can block the descent of allied soldiers.

It’s undeniable, this is a great weapon on the battlefield, an assault tool that can catch opponents unprepared.

It’s a pity…

Fang Yu smiled bitterly to himself.

Currently, his power level is empty, so even his crewmates are detained at a distant port.

Neither obtained resources nor Alchemy Divine Artifacts have a place to be used.

What matters most now is finding a way to escape, and even beyond that, understanding the internal political issues of Lanyun Sea Country.

Keep in mind that this time Fang Yu triggered the subsequent tasks of finding Kong Huaao.

[Two Nations’ Peace] and [The Person Behind the Scene].

Fang Yu doesn’t need to say much about how rewarding these tasks are.

Completing one already brought Fang Yu considerable experience, let alone two.

Moreover, Fang Yu had a hunch…

In fact, behind these two tasks lies the same matter.

The reason Lanyun Sea Country suddenly took such a hostile stance toward the Duorong Federation is because of those in the Peacekeeping Council hidden behind Lanyun Sea Country.

Once discovering this person’s identity, the issues between the two countries will be easily resolved, completing both tasks.

So… the key to this matter lies in discovering this person’s identity.

“Back then, Meng Biao, as a Duorong officer, mobilized Lanyun Sea Country’s troops.”

“It indicates that within the Duorong military and Lanyun Sea Country military, there are people from the Peacekeeping Council hidden.”

“These two people… no, perhaps more than two, what connection do they have? Could it be that in the Peacekeeping Council, these people belong to the same faction?”

Fang Yu murmured.

From the previous Alchemy Leader and Fisherman, Fang Yu knew that the Peacekeeping Council wasn’t monolithic.

Some people aim to go with the flow and integrate into the Sea Ship System.

But others aim to revive ancient glory or start a brand new era.

These two groups, although they share a common goal: to overthrow the Ocean Court’s rule.

Once achieving this shared goal, the contradictions behind these two groups will be entirely exposed.

Either the Sea Ship System or opening a whole new era of navigation.

These are two different options, inherently contradictory.

So Fang Yu understood that even within the Peacekeeping Council, there’s factional strife, and it isn’t monolithic.

The individuals behind Duorong and Lanyun can cooperate and communicate, indicating that the people hidden behind the two nations likely share a common purpose or interest.

Only then could an agreement be reached.

Perhaps… after identifying the person behind Lanyun Sea Country, Fang Yu could also uncover the person behind the Duorong Federation…

Fang Yu pondered internally.

“Kid…”

At that moment, a voice came from beside him, startling Fang Yu.

“Mr. Kong? You’re still awake?”

The speaker was Kong Huaao. Fang Yu looked at Kong Huaao’s bright eyes, somewhat surprised.

Was Mr. Kong awakened by his own murmuring?

Kong Huaao didn’t answer Fang Yu’s question but said quietly, “No need to rush, these people stirring up trouble behind the scenes will inevitably expose a flaw. I have a premonition…”

“The Lanyun military… seems to be searching for someone within themselves from the Peacekeeping Council too…”

“Hmm?”

Fang Yu’s expression shifted as he wanted to ask more.

But Kong Huaao shook his head, “Get some sleep; thinking about it now won’t help. Once we know how they’ll deal with us, we’ll naturally be able to assess the situation.”

“I have a hunch, some forces within Lanyun are also engaging in unseen maneuvering…”

Upon hearing Kong Huaao’s words, Fang Yu was momentarily stunned, then nodded.

…

But neither expected that their wait would last for three full days.

Until a few days later, Fang Yu and Kong Huaao finally saw someone else apart from the soldier who delivered food.

It was that completely Extraordinary-transformed officer.

Seeing this person enter, Fang Yu and Kong Huaao couldn’t help but brighten up, quickly standing and focusing their gaze on this individual.

“You’ve finally come. Can we talk? I’m curious why…”

Fang Yu stepped forward and spoke.

But before he could finish, this person interrupted.

The officer glanced coldly at Fang Yu and said, “You two, come with me, someone wants to meet you!”

After hearing this, Fang Yu and Kong Huaao exchanged a glance, puzzled, “Who wants to see us?”

The officer didn’t reply, but his gaze swept over them with a cold, warning look, then he opened the cabin door and walked out.

Soon, soldiers filed in from outside the cabin.

Without a word, they blindfolded Fang Yu and Kong Huaao with black cloth, then took hold of them.

Leading them out of the cabin.

At this point, Fang Yu saw nothing as the black cloth covered his head.

He only felt himself being taken forward by several soldiers.

Occasionally, noises sounded around him, sometimes the sound of the sea, sometimes it felt like he was being moved into a vehicle, enduring a bumpy ride.

But no matter what, Fang Yu didn’t feel the unique rocking sensation of a sea ship, indicating he was being moved on land, being transported to an unknown destination.

After some time, Fang Yu suddenly felt his body lighten as the soldiers holding him let go.

Moments later, light whispers seemed to come from the front, with someone quietly speaking.

Strangely… even though it was not far from him, under normal circumstances, even with his power level sealed, Fang Yu should have heard the speech clearly.

But now the whispering was vague and indistinct.

A bit shocked, Fang Yu realized the speaker must be an expert; otherwise, this situation wouldn’t occur.

At that moment, a voice ahead rang out clearly, “Alright, remove the black cloth from their heads!”

“Yes!”

A voice came from behind.

Then Fang Yu felt his vision brighten as the black cloth was suddenly removed from his head.

His sight quickly restored, Fang Yu eagerly looked forward.

As he took in the scene before him, Fang Yu’s eyes widened in shock, filled with disbelief.

“This… how is it possible?!”
