Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls - Chapter 673 - 336: Outer Realm Captain Crisis

“The crisis of the Outer Realm Captain? How could that be?!”

Fang Yu instinctively spoke up.

But the old man just smiled and then said, “You underestimate the growth capacity of the Outer Realm Captain, and you underestimate the human heart.”

The old man’s face showed a complex expression: “How many years has it been since the Outer Realm Captain descended? At most, it’s only been 5 years, right?”

“But the earliest batch of Outer Realm Captains has grown to the level of the Legendary Ship. It’s even possible that somewhere unknown to the world, an Outer Realm Captain has reached the level of the Sky Dome Ship.”

“Legendary level…”

The old man sighed with envy: “Do you know how many opportunities and efforts our world’s residents need to reach the legendary level? It takes at least 50 years to have a chance.”

“And reaching the Sky Dome Ship would take seventy to ninety years.”

“But the Outer Realm Captains, in a mere five years, have completed what takes our world’s residents 50 years to reach.”

“If these Outer Realm Captains are given more time, I’m afraid this world will no longer be able to control them.”

After hearing the old man’s words, Fang Yu fell silent.

Sea ships, from level 50 onwards, become Extraordinary Ships.

Level 60, Dragon Ship.

Level 70, Legendary Ship.

Level 80, Sky Dome Ship.

And level 80 is basically the standard of the Peacekeeping Council members; as soon as they fall from the peak, they return to level 80.

And level 90 is the legendary… peak sea ship!

Fang Yu had always been in contact with consortiums, but in reality, among the Outer Realm Captains, the most powerful are those who operate alone, who were among the first to enter this world and enjoyed the resource dividends.

Imagine, just a few million people entering this world, starting to monopolize all the tasks of this world, with resources so abundant they could never use them all.

So… the first five batches of Blue Star Captains who entered this world reaped the dividends, and their growth speed was simply terrifying.

Among the Outer Realm Captains, the truly powerful and truly fearsome are not the consortiums.

The Patriarchs of the consortiums mostly came in the fifth to seventh batches.

But it was the captains from the earlier batches who were truly terrifying.

The old man said that a Blue Star Captain had already reached the legendary level; Fang Yu was actually not surprised at all.

If he had entered this world in the first batch and had five years to develop, he might naturally have grown to legendary level, without needing any special opportunities.

Though it is said that each Outer Realm Captain looks like they are having a tough time, lacking power, lacking resources, and needing to rely on other forces to obtain them.

But perhaps the Outer Realm Captains themselves hadn’t realized that even the most ordinary Blue Star Captain has a terrifying growth potential that the native inhabitants can only admire from afar.

“Will these legendary captains pose a threat to Mr. Kong’s nation-building?”

Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn’t help but speak out, looking at the old man.

“Who knows…”

The old man’s eyes were also a little confused, and he spoke softly: “Because… after you Outer Realm Captains descended, you haven’t actually experienced a Sea Country nation-building event, right?”

“No one can guarantee that when faced with the nation-building of the Sea Country, the Outer Realm Captains won’t see it as some kind of opportunity, maybe even a game, and suddenly seize the chance to establish a nation.”

“Many people among the Outer Realm Captains have already grown to a level sufficient to influence this world. Among them, is there really no one with the ambition to establish their own Sea Country?”

“If the Duorong Federation splits, I’m afraid…”

The old man shook his head, filled with worry about the future.

After hearing the old man’s words, Fang Yu once again fell silent.

He actually knew in his heart that those Blue Star Captains would inevitably seize the opportunity to establish a nation.

He understood the mindset of some Outer Realm Captains too well.

All resources are for my use, caring nothing for public order and morals, and caring nothing for the innocent.

In these years of growth, many Outer Realm Captains have pursued power to the point of extreme selfishness.

Nation-building is simply a chance to step into the pinnacle.

Once they become the sovereign, as long as their cultivation can withstand the enormous glory of the era, they can enter the peak level.

“Ha…”

The old man suddenly laughed, and then said with self-mockery: “You might not believe me, but I was once part of the Peacekeeping Council.”

“What?”

Fang Yu was taken aback and looked at the old man in surprise.

The old man was also looking at Fang Yu, with a very straightforward expression: “Fang Yu, ask yourself, if a group of people with potential far greater than the local residents suddenly appeared in your world, lawless and treating the world as some kind of game, what would you do?”

After hearing the old man’s words, Fang Yu lowered his eyes: “I would… control these people, and if I couldn’t control them, I would eliminate them!”

After hearing Fang Yu’s words, the old man smiled, speaking softly: “To be honest, that’s what many people in this world think, including me.”

“That’s why the Peacekeeping Council was established.”

“But later on, we found… the number of you Outer Realm Captains descending was just too great, and there are more descending every month.”

“Killing and controlling just didn’t work.”

“Moreover, the atmosphere within the Peacekeeping Council changed, and some people began to have other ideas using the Peacekeeping Council as a platform.”

“So afterward, I left the Peacekeeping Council, or rather, very few of those who founded the Peacekeeping Council at the beginning remained.”

“Fang Yu!”
