Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 433 - 242: Mission and Maneuvering, Fangs Revealed

Chapter 433: Chapter 242: Mission and Maneuvering, Fangs Revealed

On the day the enchantment was completed, Fang Yu decisively allocated his 6 Lord Points in a 4:2 ratio to enhance the torpedoes and the Long-Range Cannon.

He directly upgraded the torpedoes’ enchantment investment level to the maximum, significantly boosting their stealth, speed, and power.

The remaining two points were used to upgrade the Long-Range Cannon’s enchantment level to level 3, resulting in a substantial improvement in both combat power and attack range.

Fang Yu was very satisfied, his gaze fixed on the three new enchantments that appeared on his panel.

Just 6 Lord Points short of raising all three enchantment abilities to maximum level, by then, the combat power of the Salted Fish would reach a new height.

In fact, the combat power of the Salted Fish had already increased at this moment.

Luu Yuan had tested the torpedoes; during their movement, even someone like Fang Yu, who possessed a water-type Extraordinary Ability, would find it difficult to detect a torpedo silently speeding through the seawater without careful sensing.

This was in a quiet environment.

In reality, during the outbreak of war, with complex energy level fluctuations everywhere, a torpedo silently speeding through the water would attract little attention.

This thing is definitely a good tool for a surprise attack, Fang Yu thought to himself, feeling he had bet on the right horse.

...

The day after the enchantment was finished, as usual, Fang Yu was preparing to go to Meng Biao’s command room for a chat.

But to Fang Yu’s surprise...

Meng Biao came to him first.

"Brother! My dear brother!"

Meng Biao climbed aboard the Salted Fish with a genuine, simple smile and found Fang Yu.

Fang Yu glanced at Meng Biao, then said calmly, "Old Meng, what brings you here?"

Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Meng Biao chuckled, "What else could it be? Of course, there’s a task for you!"

"Oh? A task?"

Fang Yu’s interest was piqued, his gaze fixed on Meng Biao, his expression natural: "What kind of task? It’s rare for you to think of me proactively."

"Let’s get this straight, if it’s like last time, an insignificant, leftover task, I’ll be upset."

"No way! How could I be that kind of person?"

Meng Biao feigned displeasure: "The bond between us brothers means I’d naturally reserve the best tasks for you, Fang Yu!"

"Actually, this task isn’t difficult, but it’s very lucrative."

"At coordinate point 703.24, we previously set up a sea battle wall."

"But recently, it’s been frequently damaged for some unknown reason, and despite several repairs, it’s not fully restored."

"According to the engineers and theological workers who went to repair it, there’s likely some special energy being released underwater, disrupting the energy order within the sea battle wall, causing the damage."

Meng Biao sighed slightly, his gaze then shifted to Fang Yu: "So, I plan to send you with Yun Qiqian to investigate what issues have arisen in that area."

"Yun Qiqian?"

Fang Yu was taken aback and looked at Meng Biao in confusion.

"Oh, he’s the leader of the theological workers!"

An image involuntarily appeared in Fang Yu’s mind.

A man in flowing white robes, leading a group of theological workers, joining the war to support the front line.

Fang Yu had seen this person from a distance, and even from far away, he could sense the peculiar energy level fluctuations emanating from the man.

This was a formidable presence likely not below the level of a Divine Envoy.

Was he also going along?

Fang Yu was somewhat surprised, not expecting to hear news of this man from Meng Biao, and even more so that Meng Biao would assign Yun Qiqian to accompany him to the location of the front line sea battle wall to inspect it.

Did Meng Biao and Yun Qiqian have some connection?

Or was Yun Qiqian also a member of the Peacekeeping Council?

Fang Yu’s heart constricted slightly. This was, after all, an expert from the Theological Research Institute, could he also be a member of the Peacekeeping Council?

There were members of the Peacekeeping Council within the Theological Research Institute as well.

Thinking of this, Fang Yu glanced at Meng Biao beside him, a cold smile forming inside.

It had come.

Meng Biao had plotted for a long time, setting up a scheme trying to make him step into it.

Fang Yu also had his own calculations, wanting to employ Meng Biao’s strategies to eliminate the major enemies in the Divine Hall Alliance Army for Hua Yu, thereby achieving a dual goal of acquiring the Divine Inscription Core and reducing the high-end fighting power of the enemy.

Both sides were maneuvering, each holding different pieces of information.

Upon hearing Meng Biao’s task, Fang Yu quickly realized that this matter was likely already underway.

No need to overthink, Meng Biao’s fangs would be bared during this joint mission with Yun Qiqian to the sea battle wall.

There was likely a hidden trap at these coordinates, with Meng Biao waiting for him to enter.

However...

Fang Yu glanced at Meng Biao, somewhat curious inside.

Just what kind of setup had Meng Biao orchestrated?

After all, his primary goal was to extract information about the Divine Envoy backing me, to find the traitor and sweep up internal chaos.

As for my life, that’s not Meng Biao’s main concern.

This setup’s primary objective surely isn’t to take my life, but to obtain information regarding the identity of the Divine Envoy traitor from me.

But...
