Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1619 - 801: Postwar Conference and Torch Fortune_3
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
These Torch Fortunes cannot be utilized by ordinary Torch Warships; only those with the highest authority of the [Original Fire Seed] can mobilize these fortunes, which are autonomously generated and gathered by all successfully awakened Torch citizens.
This Torch Fortune can not only assist Torch Warships in breakthroughs but also transform into a formidable Torch Fortune attack. Just like the previously released [Xuanyuan Human Emperor Sword], it was gathered by the [Azure Dragon Star Formation] beneath [Human Emperor City] with the aid of Torch Fortune.
It also assisted Jiang Yuan’s own breakthrough of the Guidance Technique, which similarly benefited from Torch Fortune.
Otherwise, how could it have been such a coincidence to complete the Guidance Technique breakthrough at that critical last moment?
And these Torch Fortunes are all condensed and generated by the Torch Ship Captains throughout the entire Torch Civilization.
Since the very beginning of the civilization’s establishment, the four Human Emperors have long divided all the Torch Fortunes of the Torch Civilization. The Four Great Empires themselves, including the ordinary Torch Duchies, Torch Kingdoms, and Torch Nations attached beneath them, form the foundational base for the four Human Emperors to accumulate Torch Fortune.
Now, Song Chi has successfully obtained the fifth share of highest authority, and these eighty Torch River Systems, along with the Dragon Spine Kingdom itself, totaling eighty-two Torch River Systems, are the basic foundation of Torch Fortune that the four Human Emperors voluntarily gave to him.
Compared to the entire Torch Civilization’s two River System Communities, with over eighteen hundred river systems, eighty-two river systems naturally don’t even count as a fraction, but Song Chi holds no other notions, feeling only gratitude at heart.
It is no exaggeration to say the entire Torch Human Civilization was built step by step by the four Human Emperors, and the stakes of Torch Fortune are immensely significant, so how they wish to handle it is not something outsiders can meddle with.
Even if they were unwilling to allocate any river system, Song Chi wouldn’t be dissatisfied. To be given eighty-two river systems freely is already an enormous surprise.
Post this event, the Merits List will also reward the subsequent captains, but their prizes differ somewhat from those of Song Chi and the other two. They were allocated the alien race corpses recovered from outside the city, including those Chaos Beast corpses killed in the first round of battle.
There’s no need to elaborate on alien race corpses; they can be refined for Primordial Blood. Particularly, Chaos Demon Ape corpses have a certain chance to yield Chaos Demon Ape Spirit Bones and other additional upgrade resources, inherently valuable.
As for Chaos Beasts, their bodies yield various resources and Strange Objects, sometimes even producing [Chaos Blood Organ] as an additional upgrade resource, which all captains covet, leaving none dissatisfied.
Upon completing the reward distribution, including the Song Family Fleet, all received a considerable amount of alien race corpses.
Indeed, many Torch Warships were sunk during the city defense battle, but compared to the Torch Fleet sheltered by the Chaos Wall, the external Chaos Beasts and Chaos aliens sustained the most losses. A rough estimate puts the attrition ratio at dozens to one, allowing almost all surviving captains to obtain considerable rewards.
...
After the meeting, Song Chi returned to the family contingent.
Song Family Core Chat:
"Song Chi: Patriarch, Prime Ancestor... how did the family’s casualties fare this time? Was the harvest satisfactory?"
"Song Wujiang: The family mobilized over two million Second Rank clansmen this time, and although there have been multiple rotations, the total has only increased rather than decreased, yet the current count has already dropped below one million two hundred thousand."
"Though the true destruction of ships and loss of lives were not excessive, thanks to the Azure Dragon Starry Sky Array Map’s support, the primary issue remains that of lifespan."
Hearing this, Song Chi remained silent.
This problem is a key concern for all Low Rank Captains, unless they themselves break through, there’s no solution.
Even mobilizing Second Rank clansmen, what’s the lifespan of a Second Rank Captain?
Three hundred years!
Even Third Rank Captains have only six hundred years.
How long did this Human Emperor City Guard Battle last, over two thousand years, how could these Low Rank Captains endure it?
The good news is, the remaining over one million captains are primarily the latest batch rotated, with over six hundred thousand having successfully broken through to Third Rank, exceeding half. Even of the remaining tens of thousands of Second Rank Captains, most have reached the peak of Second Rank, sure to ignite another wave of promotions upon returning to the Ancestral Domain.
Because during the Human Emperor City Guard Battle, there was no shortage of High Rank Aliens, and these aliens, unlike Chaos Beasts, defeating them boosts the success rate of warship promotion. Moreover, the Four Great Empires had already prepared, stockpiling large amounts of low-grade special upgrade materials in the city, further enhancing low-level warship upgrade success rates.
If luck is on one’s side, capturing a Fourth Rank, or even a Fifth Rank injured alien during the year-long upgrade mission might instantaneously boost the promotion success rate by over 10%. Under such circumstances, how could the surviving Torch Warship promotions have a low success rate?
Besides these Low Rank Captains, the number of the Song Family’s high-level captains above Fourth Rank has also skyrocketed, increasing from over two thousand two thousand years ago to over six thousand, with more than five hundred Fifth Rank Battleship Captains, an alarming number.
Additionally, Grandpa Song Mingsong, Clan Elder Song Tianmang, Song Tianhao, Father Song Chao, including Song Ze, Song Yichuan, etc., have successively upgraded their flagships to Star-Annihilating Starships with the aid of the Time Realm Fruit and [Blood Holy Grail].
It can be said that through this battle, although the number of awakened clansmen in the Song Family has decreased, the quality has undoubtedly improved significantly.
Lastly, there’s big brother Song Yan.
"I am prepared, and upon returning to the Ancestral Domain, the Fiery Flame Boiling Sea will attempt to impact the Star River Ship."
