Wang Yuanwei arrives at the port to enchant Fang Yu's ship, "Salted Fish," but is surprised by its drastic transformation. The ship has undergone significant body and extraordinary transformation, nearing the extraordinary ship level. Luu Yuan points out the ship, and Wang Yuanwei boards, eager to work on the unique vessel. Fang Yu appears and discusses the journey, revealing he cannot return to Qiyun Port due to some issues and that Wang Yuanwei has been targeted by a force, explaining why he had remained in port.

Witnessing Mr. Wang's arduous journey spanning thousands of miles from the mainland, Fang Yu felt a touch of warmth surge within him.

"Ah... don’t mention it," Mr. Wang mumbled, then gradually began to share, in a rather chatty manner, the numerous experiences he faced on his trip.

These included trivial matters like the driver's unpleasant body odor or a vehicle breakdown along the route.

Wang Yuanwei recounted many small, everyday occurrences, counting them on his fingers as he detailed them to Fang Yu.

Having been stationed at Qiyun Port for a considerable duration, even with his engrossment in arcane research, social interaction was still a necessity. Upon seeing Fang Yu, his usually reserved demeanor gave way to an outpouring of conversation.

"Oh, that’s right!"

Towards the end, Mr. Wang's expression shifted abruptly as he recounted a peculiar encounter he had on the streets.

"Brother, what did that person mean when they said the fire would burn me?"

"I also observed that the local populace seems to harbor a dislike for individuals from the Duorong Federation. What's been happening lately?"

Mr. Wang voiced his confusion, shaking his head as he spoke.

Fang Yu's expression flickered slightly upon hearing Mr. Wang's words but he quickly waved it off, instructing Wang Yuanwei, "Have no concerns; just concentrate on your enchanting. This matter is not within your purview. Simply complete your task and return as usual."

"Uh... alright!"

Mr. Wang scratched his head, crouched down, and resumed his enchanting.

However, not long after commencing his engravings, he looked up once more and told Fang Yu, "Let me know if you require any assistance; I've become quite formidable now!"

"Haha, certainly!"

Fang Yu let out a hearty laugh and nodded in agreement.

Without delay, Fang Yu signaled to Luu Yuan. Once Luu Yuan approached, Fang Yu inquired discreetly, "How did it unfold? Luu Yuan, regarding the matter I entrusted to you, what is the status?"

Luu Yuan's spirits lifted, and he quickly moved to Fang Yu's side. As if presenting a precious artifact, he transmitted a screenshot of his panel space to Fang Yu's private message interface.

Then, Luu Yuan chuckled and stated, "Captain, everything went exceedingly smoothly."

"You instructed me to procure energy potions from Peng’s Captain Alliance, and this action has proven beneficial to the Blue Star captains within the alliance as well."

"You have no idea how challenging things have been for these captains lately; they've had virtually no avenues to earn income."

"The moment this news became public, they eagerly sought me out to acquire the energy potions."

Hearing Luu Yuan’s report, Fang Yu felt a surge of joy. His gaze immediately shifted to the energy potions that Luu Yuan had directly transferred to his panel space via the panel's direct trading function.

Having foreseen this impending crisis and recognizing his current limitations, Fang Yu had not hesitated to sell the four Extraordinary Bodies he possessed to Cheng Peng, much to Cheng Peng's delight.

Frankly speaking, the Sea Ship Extraordinary Magic Stone is an exceptionally rare commodity. Acquisition of even one is sufficient to incite intense competition among Blue Star captains.

And four Extraordinary Bodies—even the affluent Cheng Peng was considerably eager, promptly disbursing six thousand Gold Coins for the quartet.

A price of fifteen hundred Gold Coins per item is already extraordinarily high, representing an immense fortune.

Precisely as Fang Yu had strategized, he no longer hoarded his valuable possessions. Instead, he resolved to convert everything he owned into tangible strength.

For Fang Yu at this juncture, energy potions were the direct equivalent of strength!

Whether by augmenting his experience through the Ancestor Dragon's mutation or by accelerating his comprehension of universal Laws via synchronized frequencies with the world, a substantial reservoir of energy potions was indispensable.

And with six thousand Gold Coins, he had procured a million bottles of primary energy potions, along with... seven thousand bottles of intermediate energy potions.

To be completely honest, the sheer quantity of energy potions visible caused not only Luu Yuan but even Fang Yu himself to widen his eyes in astonishment.

Over a million bottles amassed within the panel space presented a visually overwhelming spectacle.

Upon witnessing this, Fang Yu's spirits soared emotionally. A faint smile graced his lips as he softly addressed Luu Yuan:

"Excellent!"

"Next, Salted Fish will commence..."

"Closed-door training!"

...

The moment Fang Yu entered his state of intensive training, the unrest within the Lanyun Sea Country did not subside accordingly.

Initially, a specialized Southern Expedition Army was instituted within the Lanyun Sea Country. The Third Army of this expeditionary force specifically recruited captains from Blue Star.

A significant number of Blue Star captains, facing the monopolization of tasks and resources by corporate entities, were feeling rather disoriented, uncertain where to procure additional resources and missions.

Instantly, upon the announcement of the Southern Expedition Army's recruitment drive, an overwhelming surge of excitement coursed through the Blue Star captains. Without a second thought, they flocked towards the Lanyun Sea Country, eager to enlist. Much like the special event that had previously occurred at Qiyun Port, a dedicated task center was established within the Southern Expedition Army's headquarters. Through continuous interactions with the Blue Star captains, the inhabitants of the various Sea Countries had progressively identified the most effective methods for securing their cooperation. Currently, a significant number of the local populace refer to these Blue Star captains as "task mercenaries." This designation stems from their lack of fixed allegiance, specific organizational ties, or national identity, much like traditional mercenaries. The principle is simple: once a task is posted, a vast contingent of Blue Star captains can be mobilized to undertake the mission. Consequently, recent trending topics within the Lanyun Sea Country have been dominated by this phenomenon, igniting a fervent discussion across numerous online forums.
