"Captain, these syndicates are monopolizing resources in Qiyun Port, which might not favor us."

Luu Yuan glanced at Fang Yu and then spoke.

In the past two days, Fang Yu didn't go anywhere, staying in the captain's room or checking Wang Yuanwei's progress in enchantment, seeing how it was coming along.

This left many crew members baffled.

Even in the past two days, people from the syndicates openly divided the ownership of the nine Divine Pillars among themselves, splitting them domineeringly, leaving no opportunity for the Blue Star Captains of Qiyun Port.

If it had been before, Fang Yu's temper would have surely clashed with these syndicate people—anyone who dared to take resources from Fang Yu was his enemy.

But this time, in the face of the syndicates' arbitrary resource division, Fang Yu showed no annoyance, instead displaying an air of indifference, which seemed a bit out of character for the captain.

"The captain is probably also worried about the warships."

A crew member whispered to Luu Yuan:

"You saw how dangerous it was when that warship was chasing us before."

"Now, every syndicate has dispatched several warships, so naturally, the captain is wary."

"His calm demeanor is likely to reassure us."

Hearing the crew's discussion, Luu Yuan glared at them: "Don't talk nonsense; the captain always has confidence. Just wait and see."

"Wait and see?"

The crew exchanged looks and nodded slightly.

Although... they were also unsure, after all, those were warships!

The ocean's overlords, the pinnacle among ordinary captains' ships.

Each syndicate has at least several warships stationed at Qiyun Port.

Such power is unmatched by large cargo ships.

Unless...

The crew exchanged glances, suddenly considering a possibility...

The captain... could he be nearing Level 30, about to advance to a vessel-level captain?

...

Indeed, as the crew speculated.

Just as the syndicates were about to land at Qiyun Port and head to the East Ring Sea Region to attack the Golden Divine Pillar the next day.

The military had returned victorious!

Their return was like a shot of adrenaline, instilling strong confidence in every ordinary captain.

Everyone was delighted, facing the returning Kong Huaao and others as if their parents had come home.

As long as the military was around, these syndicate people wouldn't dare go too far.

"Buzz!"

One by one, the military's ships docked in the Qiyun Port Military Sub-Region.

And Fang Yu was already waiting at the port in the military sub-region when their ships returned.

Looking at the triumphant return led by Kong Huaao, Fang Yu couldn't help but cheerfully look at Kong Huaao and say, "Congratulations, Mr. Kong, it seems your rank is about to rise again!"

Now full of ambition, Kong Huaao instinctively glanced at the familiar voice of Fang Yu and chuckled, "You cheeky boy, you really wouldn't get up early without some gain. Did you come this time to settle the mission rewards with me?"

Kong Huaao had just won a significant battle, his body emanating a powerful aura, radiating dense energy level fluctuations.

A powerful aura, a leap in life level, for military officers, completing a victory in battle means their strength can advance further.

Even in wars of the Sea Mine Battle's magnitude, a victory often brings a sense of life level elevation.

Fang Yu, looking at Kong Huaao now, couldn't help but feel a bit astonished.

Kong Huaao had grown even stronger.

During the Sea Mine Battle, Fang Yu had already seen Kong Huaao unleash his full power, his strength enough to churn the ocean.

Now carrying overwhelming victory, with an uplifted life level.

Fang Yu watched Kong Huaao intently.

Why does it seem...

Kong Huaao's life level is now not much weaker than those Divine Envoy vessels.

If they were to fight head-on, Kong Huaao might have the advantage, but the mysterious skills of the master alchemists inside the Divine Envoy vessels make it uncertain whose strength would truly prevail.

This... this is a major player.

Fang Yu quietly clung to Kong Huaao's stronghold, feeling that in this East Ring Sea Region War, it's highly possible Kong Huaao would once again become a central figure in the Southern Island Sea Region's resistance against the Sin Domain alchemists.

Upon hearing Kong Huaao's words, Fang Yu grinned and nodded without saying much.

In all of Qiyun Port, only Kong Huaao knew that Fang Yu was the Blue Star Captain who initiated the main quest.

Once the Sea Mine War ends, Fang Yu will receive a complete main quest reward.

Thinking of this, Kong Huaao nodded and without further ado: "Alright, let's settle it for you."

As Kong Huaao spoke, a task panel notification sounded in Fang Yu's mind.

"Congratulations Captain [Fang Yu] on completing the main quest [Alien War], all members gain 400,000 experience, 20,000 Silver Coins, Advanced Radiant Star Stone +1, Absolute Defense Scroll +1."

"The lord gains Ocean Law Codex (Single Page) [Undying], Basic Instant Teleportation Scroll +1, Domain Scroll [Energy Level Suppression] +1."

Hearing the task panel notification in his mind, Fang Yu gasped.

What the heck?

What did I hear?

Getting the Ocean Scripture?!!

Fang Yu was shocked and couldn't wait to quickly take out and examine the single page of the Ocean Scripture.

The Ocean Scripture represents a level of power in the Ocean World that transcends all physical laws, scientific principles, and even theological doctrines.
