NOVEL NEXT Chapter 143: Main Quest Causality
Watching the crew members sluggishly walk towards the task point, Fang Yu nodded, quite satisfied.
The last time Du Ran, Ma, and the others, when the ship docked, went off alone to find personal tasks to execute and gain personal experience,
The effect was quite good.
Although there's still a large gap between their experience progress and his, at least they can stagger behind him.
Grinding a few more days, grinding a few more times, the gap won't be so large.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu went to the forums, searched for a few posts, and then posted them on the Salted Fish ship group.
"Shocking, crew members complete personal tasks, their level surpasses the captain, becoming the backbone of the ship."
"Who doesn't love powerful crew members? 16 tips for crew self-improvement!"
"You are the first person responsible for your life, complete personal tasks, make self-improvement plans, becoming a star crew member is just around the corner."
Fang Yu: Ahem ahem ahem ahem....
Fang Yu: These articles, they feel pretty good, sharing them with my adorable crew.
Crew members: ...
Read without reply.
...
Alright then...
Fang Yu lightly snorted, if they don't reply, they don't reply, anyway, he'll find out whose level falls behind.
Termination warning!
...
After disembarking from the ship, Fang Yu, without a second thought, arranged to meet Lu Kun and Wang Xiaohu, planning to discuss the latest progress with them.
As for Mr. Kong... military regulations are very strict, it's difficult to arrange a personal meeting with Mr. Kong to discuss anything.
This task, "Alien War Turmoil," Fang Yu is the trigger of the task, he can enjoy the settlement reward after the final task conclusion.
It's a reward brought by a major event, far more generous than a single task's reward.
The completion condition of this main task is to solve the source of Alien War Turmoil, expel the chaos of Alien War Turmoil from the Southern Island Sea Region.
Fang Yu, as the final beneficiary of the task, naturally wants to follow along with the task progress.
Not just the final settlement reward, but also a series of independent tasks on this mainline, Fang Yu's completion benefits are much higher than others.
Who else would take on this task line if he doesn't?
...
Hearing Fang Yu's invitation, Lu Kun was very pleased, he told Fang Yu that the president has now returned to Qiyun Port, and that the Ji Clan Trading Association has experienced some significant upheavals.
Lu Kun wanted to introduce Fang Yu to the president, especially since Fang Yu had saved the president's young daughter before, considered a favor to the president.
But Fang Yu thought briefly, then decisively refused Lu Kun's kind offer.
His main energy now needs to be focused on completing the tasks, quickly raising his level to level 20, unlocking more ship upgrade limits.
For social exchanges, Fang Yu currently doesn't have much energy to focus on this.
Besides, according to Fang Yu's estimation, even if he met the president, the president couldn't possibly suddenly elevate his status level within the Ji Clan Trading Association to A-level, otherwise, those shareholders in the Ji Clan Trading Association might explode.
Thus, Fang Yu arranged to meet Lu Kun and Wang Xiaohu at the small tavern where they had previously met.
The three sat across from each other, Fang Yu's gaze couldn't help but fall on the two, then he curiously asked: "So, after I provided the route, did each party have any unusual changes?"
The two exchanged glances, then smiled bitterly, "Oh, very big changes, little brother, your route is too crucial."
"Hmm?"
Fang Yu was somewhat surprised, but still patiently waited for them to speak.
"Little brother, after you provided that route, the three parties conducted a joint investigation."
"The more they dug, the more they found out, behind that route lies the entire military supply line that the marine warlords used to ignite this turmoil."
Fang Yu was startled, "Military supply line?"
"Yes!"
The two exchanged glances again, then slightly shook their heads and spoke: "Over in the West Qinghai Sea Region, the marine mining industry has almost been entirely extracted, even if the military factories from the West Qinghai Sea Region are willing to cooperate with the marine warlords to supply them with turmoil weaponry, there's not much raw material that can be supplied to the military factories for extraction."
"Thus... the marine warlords set their sights on the Southern Island Sea Region here, wanting to secretly transport weapon equipment to the battlefield from here."
Fang Yu nodded, as some of these matters he was already aware of, so he didn't feel surprised.
"Little brother, do you remember that Sea Ore Island previously contracted by the Ji Clan Trading Association?"
At this moment, Lu Kun spoke up, putting down his glass and looking at Fang Yu.
"I remember, how could I forget."
Fang Yu had been to that island before and had transported some marine ore from there back to Qiyun Port.
Seeing Fang Yu nod, the two exchanged glances and then spoke: "This is why the marine warlords want to extend the battle line to the Southern Island Sea Region."
"In the West Qinghai Sea Region, raw materials are scarce, insufficient to support the supply of weapon equipment, but over in the Southern Island Sea Region, there are still a large number of unexplored Sea Ore Islands."
"Originally, the marine warlords wanted to secretly purchase weapon equipment from this area and send it to the battlefield."
"But we've pinpointed their material transportation line, thus cutting off the marine warlords' weapon supply."
"If the material supply is cut off, then this rebellion will be quickly suppressed."
"Therefore, the marine warlords are forced... to extend the battle line to the Southern Island Sea Region, where they want to control these Sea Ore Islands and the resources from the military factories, becoming their logistical support for instigating the war."
