Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls Chapter 624 - 317: [Ancient Holy Dragon Stone] (2)

"You wouldn’t want your future sea vessel to turn into some shoddy extraordinary ability, would you?"

With a sly grin, Fang Yu boldly requested a favor from the Fisherman.

The situation unfolding was completely ridiculous.

It was obvious that the Fisherman treasured Fang Yu’s sea vessel greatly, planning to claim it someday.

But in a twist, Fang Yu ended up demanding treasures from the Fisherman.

Likely, Fang Yu stood alone as the one daring to cheekily solicit advantages from such a formidable foe.

Fang Yu’s remark precisely hit home for the Fisherman.

In the Fisherman’s view, Fang Yu’s sea vessel was as good as his own, destined to be taken later.

Any upgrades or changes Fang Yu made to it now would ultimately serve the Fisherman.

Thus, the Fisherman didn’t fear Fang Yu advancing too fast; instead, he dreaded any rushed flaws ruining its perfection.

Boosting Fang Yu’s sea vessel meant strengthening what would soon be his prized possession.

The Fisherman, of course, paid close attention.

After listening to Fang Yu, the Fisherman stared deeply at him before nodding. "Without our special bond, you’d be dead by tomorrow for talking to me that way."

"Yet, there’s truth in what you say..."

The Fisherman believed Fang Yu couldn’t oppose him.

Through countless years, his command of power had soared to pinnacle heights.

He possessed sharp senses for gauging foes’ power and might.

To him, staying watchful over Fang Yu allowed a perfect strike to claim the sea vessel.

Therefore... the Fisherman held no real fear of Fang Yu slipping from his grasp.

Brimming with assurance, he could aid in refining the sea vessel while effortlessly curbing Fang Yu’s growth.

Thinking thus, the Fisherman paused briefly, then produced a faint golden stone from somewhere unknown and passed it over.

"This is a unique extraordinary magic stone I got from a rift back during the world’s shift in my younger days."

"It means little to me now, but it ought to awaken ancient extraordinary abilities in the sea vessel."

Speaking in a low tone, the Fisherman shot Fang Yu a casual look before depositing the stone in his palm.

Fang Yu took the extraordinary magic stone cautiously from the Fisherman:

"This... it won’t cause any problems, will it?"

At Fang Yu’s question, the Fisherman spun and departed, the world around dissolving like ink washed away by water.

The Fisherman himself faded gradually like a painted image blurring out before Fang Yu.

Faintly, a chilly voice drifted to Fang Yu’s ears:

"No problems—I wouldn’t bother meddling in trifles like this."

Snapping back to awareness, Fang Yu stood frozen amid Lanyun’s capital’s lively heart, the prior events feeling like a mere dream.

"That was no dream..."

Fang Yu mused inwardly, sensing chill in his grip.

He unclenched his fist to reveal a golden stone resting silently within.

[Ancient Holy Dragon Stone]

Item Description: A mysterious stone born from the void, imbued with the aura of the Primordial Dragon Race during the ancient time when they ruled this world. It has mysterious and ancient powers and can be absorbed by a sea vessel to cause mutation.

Item Attributes: Ancient/Sea Ship Extraordinary Magic Stone/Dragon Race Bloodline.

Reading the stone’s details left Fang Yu shocked.

The age when the Ancient Dragon Race reigned supreme?!

Its timeline remained a total mystery.

For almost ten millennia in this world’s chronicles, humans or Alien Races held sway, supplanting glorious lineages with human dominance.

The Ancient Dragon Race epoch lay buried beyond ten thousand years past.

Yet the Fisherman claimed he’d snagged this gem amid the world’s upheaval in his early years.

That world transformation... likely marked the shift from Dragon to Human eras.

This...

Shock gripped Fang Yu.

Could the Fisherman truly have endured for so long?

Surviving from that distant age would make him a living legend, like an ancient patriarch.

Did his origins run that deep?

Fang Yu tsked in awe, pondering the nature of this lurking watcher.

Never mind...

Fang Yu shook off the thought swiftly.

The Fisherman’s level far outstripped his, yet for now, no danger loomed—he acted more as a watchful protector, benign in the moment.

Dwelling too much on what’s ahead served no purpose, Fang Yu decided inwardly.

His focus was urgently needed on the crisis right before him.

There was no point dwelling excessively on the Fisherman at this moment.

This realization eased Fang Yu's mind considerably.

The stone handed over by the Fisherman was undoubtedly exceptional, far surpassing the extraordinary magic stone possessed by the three-headed evil dragon.

Employing this magic stone would allow him to rapidly trigger mutations within the sea vessel, advancing to the initial stage of the extraordinary path and shattering the level 45 limit.

Lately, the alchemy leader's issue combined with the turmoil in Blue Yun Sea Country had filled Fang Yu with pressing urgency.

Whereas before he had strived to bolster his strength against looming future perils, now Fang Yu's urgency arose directly from the immediate present.
