Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 546 - 285: Advanced Enhancement, Transformation, Cheng Peng’s Request (Part 2)

Chapter 546: Chapter 285: Advanced Enhancement, Transformation, Cheng Peng’s Request (Part 2)

"Peng, these scrolls belong to the category of law-based scrolls. I got them at a low price through a business friend. I’m short on cash right now, so I’m selling them cheap. You decide how much these six scrolls are worth to you."

Fang Yu opened his mouth, laid the six scrolls out in front of Cheng Peng, and said.

The laws of the [Higher Animals] are more suited for captains with a high level but an unstable realm, and not for someone like Fang Yu who fights way beyond his level. They offer little enhancement to Fang Yu and have essentially no cost-effectiveness.

To Fang Yu, their highest value is in exchange for cash.

"Higher Animals?"

A hint of color flickered across Cheng Peng’s face. He picked up one scroll, looked at it for a long time, then nodded, "Though this isn’t from the best tier of scrolls, it’s still a law-based scroll, which is highly valuable."

"I’m forming a Captain’s Alliance and will definitely need treasures like this as rewards. I’ll take all six of these scrolls."

"But I can’t offer you the standard price for law-based scrolls. Normally, the higher-quality law-based scrolls go for about 300 gold coins. How about I give you 180 per scroll?"

"180 per scroll?"

Fang Yu gave a slight nod.

This price was fair.

For standard law-based scrolls, 300 gold coins would be for the higher-performing ones, and the use of higher animals is limited, requiring prerequisites to be met.

Scrolls with these prerequisites typically range from 150 to 200 gold coins.

gold coins per scroll felt like Peng was doing him a business favor.

"180 per scroll is fine; go ahead and take the scrolls, Peng!"

"Alright, that’s 1,080 gold coins!"

...

After dumping all 6 scrolls in one go, Fang Yu glanced at his account balance on his interface.

It went from the original 270 directly to 1,350.

Fang Yu was content, and without hesitation, he took the money straight to Ming to purchase advanced enhancement scrolls for upgrades.

"Did you actually manage to raise the money?"

Ming was a bit surprised, took the gold coins, and immediately handed the scrolls to Fang Yu.

The scrolls included:

Advanced Ship Cannon Enhancement Scrolls.

Long-range Cannon Enhancement Scroll.

Torpedo Enhancement Scroll.

Power System Enhancement Scroll.

There was also an additional hull enhancement scroll, which was even more expensive, priced at 250 gold coins each.

In total, he spent 1,210 gold coins, leaving him with 140 gold coins.

Looking at the pitiful 140 gold coins, Fang Yu felt a pang in his heart and sighed softly.

Well, money is meant to be spent. As long as the sea ship can be successfully upgraded, it will all be worth it.

Without another word, Fang Yu took the scrolls and immediately returned to his sea ship, eager to tear them open.

The evolution from warship level to battleship level is a huge qualitative change, even greater than the upgrade from cargo ship level to warship level.

The reason is that once a warship is upgraded to the battleship level, the sea ship can undergo an advanced enhancement.

This enhancement is akin to the power level of the body itself.

And the enchantment is equivalent to the extraordinary skill enhancement.

It is evident that the stronger the body’s power, the greater the support it can provide to the enchantment, making it even stronger.

So as long as it goes through this enhancement, the overall strength of the sea ship will have a qualitative leap.

As Fang Yu tore open each scroll,

all the components on the sea ship underwent tremendous changes.

The ship cannon began to emanate a frosty pressure that made anyone who saw it feel frightened, and an ordinary person without power level strength would find themselves oppressed by its overpowering aura, making them breathless, their heart racing, and their limbs cold.

The previously thick armor started to become even more robust.

Under Fang Yu’s gaze, the various values of the sea ship began to change rapidly:

Ship Cannon (X3): Base Power Level: 150→1000.

Power Level Amplification: 3X Captain’s Power Level→10X Captain’s Power Level.

Thick Armor: Ignores attacks below 5X Captain’s Power Level→Ignores attacks below 20X Captain’s Power Level.

Long-Range Cannon: Base Power Level: 300→5000.

Power Level Amplification: 10X Captain’s Power Level→30X Captain’s Power Level.

...

A string of data flashed quickly before Fang Yu’s eyes, making his eyes light up slightly.

A huge improvement, indeed a huge improvement.

Even though the power level may seem like it only increased from 150 to 1000 points, for a battle at the extraordinary ship level, 1000 points of power level might seem trivial.

But... when considering the effects of enchantments, both enhancing one another, together they can become incredibly terrifying as a massive weapon.

Not to mention, the power of the Thunderfire Cannon alone, once stacked, can easily produce sustained damage of over ten thousand per shot.

A power output of over ten thousand, that’s just one ship cannon’s power; forming the entire sea ship into a Profound Light Sword and Shield would result in evolution and enhancement to an extremely monstrous degree.

If, before evolving to the battleship level, Fang Yu’s sea ship, purely in terms of numbers, was still weaker than an extraordinary ship, and only managed to destroy Jiang Lin’s sea ship because of many hidden aces,

then... after the enhancement of each component of the battleship, its hard numbers have fully reached a level capable of competing with an extraordinary ship.

Now, even without relying on hidden aces or secret treasures, Fang Yu is confident he can match an extraordinary ship.

Battleship level... able to rival an extraordinary ship.

Even those so-called geniuses on the battleship-level power list have rarely achieved that, especially just after being promoted to battleship level, already enough to rival an extraordinary ship.

The next step for Fang Yu is to consider how to embark on the four routes Cheng Peng mentioned.

With this in mind, Fang Yu pushed the door open, headed to Cheng Peng’s sea ship, and found Cheng Peng.

"Brother, what do you say, ready to set out?"

Cheng Peng spoke with a smile.

He came here this time to assist Fang Yu in completing the task of rescuing Kong Huaao, and upon seeing Fang Yu, he was invigorated and quickly said.

"No, Peng, you’ve just arrived at Maga Island, you should rest well first. I came to ask about how to use those resources you mentioned to embark on the four paths?"

"Have you decided which path you want to take?"

Cheng Peng was a bit surprised and then chuckled:

"It’s actually quite simple; you just need to use the corresponding secret technique to refine the resources to embark on these paths."

"For instance, you’ve already entered the second stage of soul transformation, so the soul transformation route can be temporarily ignored because once all the paths you wish to take enter the second stage, you can advance to an extraordinary ship."

"And for the route of achieving sainthood in the flesh, you need to use the blood cultivation skill to resolve the essence of flesh and blood, integrate it into the sea ship, and force the ship to grow keratinous armor."

"The blood cultivation skill is straightforward and inexpensive, you can even find it on forums. I can send you a copy if you like."

"For the extraordinary route, you need to go to the Magic Stone Store to purchase special magic stones exclusively for sea ships to make the ship undergo an extraordinary transformation, then consume the extraordinary essence to gradually enter the second stage of extraordinary transformation."

"So advancing all desired routes to the second stage allows you to upgrade to an extraordinary ship?"

Fang Yu murmured, silently taking note of Cheng Peng’s words.

"Right!"

"Alright, Peng, I’ll check the forums for the blood cultivation skill and give it a try, to ensure we’re even more prepared during our operation, improving the chances of success."

Fang Yu finished speaking and was eager to return to his sea ship to attempt refining the essence of flesh and blood, letting his sea ship grow a special keratin layer.

"Wait a moment, brother!"

Just then, Cheng Peng directly stopped Fang Yu, hesitated, and said:

"Brother, I have a request, I’m not sure if you can agree?"

"Hmm? Tell me, Peng."

Fang Yu looked at Cheng Peng with some surprise and said.

"Here’s the thing, I’ve formed a Captain’s Alliance, and also ventured into the path of Glory of the Era because of it."

"Currently, the other two paths I’m following have progressed, both reaching the second stage, but the path of Glory of the Era is stuck at the first stage, lacking an opportunity for advancement."

"So, I’d like to invite you to join my Captain’s Alliance. With your potential, fame, combat power, and other factors."

"Once you join my Captain’s Alliance, there is likely to be a celebrity effect, attracting many captains to join this alliance."

Cheng Peng’s face showed a bit of apology as he spoke apologetically, "This is somewhat a utilitarian request, but it’s the fastest way I can think of right now."

"Rest assured, you won’t have to perform any tasks or pay fees in this Captain’s Alliance, just act in a guest-like role, as I’ll use your reputation to recruit some captains."

Cheng Peng requested.
