Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 382 - 223: Sharp Blade Army Casualties?

Fang Yu was very satisfied, his gaze shifted to his panel, now he had accumulated 250,000 experience points, when the task was settled, he would roll the dice again.

As long as he wasn’t particularly unlucky, this small task would be enough to raise his level by one.

"Lieutenant Fang Yu, the sea battle wall has been completed and is ready for normal operation, please inspect it, Lieutenant Fang Yu!"

At that moment, the voice of an engineer came from below, interrupting Fang Yu’s thoughts.

Fang Yu couldn’t help but poke his head out, looking at the sea battle wall below, and then nodded slightly:

"Check it one last time, if there are no overlooked issues, we’ll return to Southeast Stone Island."

"Yes!"

A few engineers quickly responded affirmatively, then turned around and started making the final checks.

Fang Yu sat on the deck with a smile, waiting for the engineers to finish the final inspection of the sea battle wall.

After that, he could comfortably return to Southeast Stone Island to settle the task.

But at that moment, Fang Yu’s expression suddenly changed, and he quickly looked at his panel interface.

On his panel interface, several very conspicuous attribute bars were glowing.

[Sharp Blade Army]

Number of troops: 200→195→193→190→187→185...

The numbers kept fluctuating, making Fang Yu’s heart tighten and then start racing.

What happened?!

His very own Sharp Blade Army had suffered heavy war damage in such a short time?

In just a moment, the number had dropped directly from the full 200 warships to 185.

Fortunately, the number stopped declining after reaching 185, with no further losses, but it still made Fang Yu so anxious he was hopping with frustration.

This was his trusted army, a unit completely under Fang Yu’s own command.

Let alone losing fifteen warships, even if the war damage exceeded five warships, it would make Fang Yu feel a painful pinch.

Damn it, although jokingly said to be moving experience cards, they are all his own.

Now seeing the war damage, how could Fang Yu not be anxious.

He abruptly stood up and looked at the engineers below: "Is it done? If the check is complete, wrap it up and head back to Southeast Stone Island as soon as possible."

The damage to the Sharp Blade Army was surely connected to the commander of Southeast Stone Island—Meng Biao.

He previously saw Meng Biao with an extraordinary aura, being the frontline commander of such a large-scale battle, both his future and capabilities were certainly outstanding.

So he entrusted his Sharp Blade Army to Meng Biao, letting Meng Biao utilize the Sharp Blade Army to enhance the war’s overall progress and continuously provide himself with experience under Meng Biao’s command.

But now with unexpected war damage, it certainly related to Meng Biao’s command.

"Damn it, how come Meng Biao is so unreliable? The army I lent you for less than two days, and you lost 15 ships already?"

"If I don’t get an explanation this time, I’ll escalate it to Mr. Kong!"

Fang Yu was so angry his teeth itched. After confirming the sea battle wall had been checked, he said nothing more, immediately setting course back to Southeast Stone Island in a hurry, aboard the engineering ship.

"Old Meng, get out here, damn you!"

As soon as he returned to Southeast Stone Island, without saying a word, Fang Yu stormed into Meng Biao’s command room: "What the hell happened? In the blink of an eye, how did my army end up with 15 ships damaged?"

His gaze was fierce, demanding an explanation, the soldiers stationed at the door initially intended to stop Fang Yu but upon recognizing the rank on his shoulder, they straightened up, not daring to obstruct Fang Yu.

"Brother..."

Meng Biao was startled upon seeing Fang Yu burst in, but he felt somewhat guilty in the end, only being able to clear his throat: "I handled this wrong, but there was a reason."

"Speak!"

"Our current understanding of the Divine Hall Alliance Army only includes the flesh-and-blood warships and beasts, beyond that, we know nothing."

"After the divine pillar rose, I began to wonder if something changed inside, then I sent people into the East Ring Sea Region, attempting the first attack."

Meng Biao quickly added when he saw Fang Yu growing increasingly hostile: "This attack wasn’t overly aggressive, just a basic probe."

"But this probe revealed some changes in the East Ring Sea Region."

"Changes?"

Fang Yu looked at Meng Biao, frowning: "What changes?"

"The changes are twofold, one... comes from your Outer Realm Captains."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"In previous missions, didn’t quite a number of your captains go missing in the East Ring Sea Region?"

"Those captains have now become part of the Divine Hall’s army. Their minds seem to be controlled by the Divine Hall. When our troops encountered these captains, they would see them emitting an abnormal glow, as if burning their own life essence, becoming extraordinarily powerful."

"Even captains of just warship level displayed the ability of an ordinary warship level."

"What?!"

After hearing Meng Biao’s words, Fang Yu was shocked.

Those missing captains were all mind-controlled by the Divine Hall?

And the Divine Hall used some unknown method, causing these captains’ abilities to burn significantly, achieving warship-level power with mere warship-level strength.

These individuals were originally comrades of the Blue Star Captains but have turned into the puppets of the Divine Hall.

In the future, they are very likely to turn against them, striking harsh blows against the Duorong Federation and Blue Star Captains.

"Old Meng, continue!"

Fang Yu spoke in a low voice, prompting Meng Biao to clear his throat gently.
