Chapter 1550: Chapter 504: Business Comes Knocking
"..."
Among these Seventh Rank members, nearly half belong to the subordinates or disciples of other 8th Rank individuals. Out of respect for their leader or teacher, they remain somewhat restrained.
However, from their excited tone, Bai Yi could already feel their eagerness.
With a smile, Bai Yi nodded at them and humbly said:
"Oh, not at all, not at all. I just utilized the special effect of an Abnormal Object, and there’s still a long way before I can catch up with the 8th Rank seniors..."
"Haha, Lord Fan Mao is still too modest. With your current strength, you’re definitely worthy of this position.
If it hadn’t been for you, Lord Fan Mao, we wouldn’t have achieved victory at all."
A cheerful voice echoed in the control room from behind Bai Yi.
At the entrance of the control room, devoid of teleportation ability, "Deceitful Martial," who flew back from the battlefield with great difficulty, just heard Bai Yi’s humility, and laughed heartily.
"Lord Deceitful Martial is joking. This victory belongs to everyone. I just played a slightly larger role.
The credit for this war rightfully belongs to every individual here; I won’t take it all."
Bai Yi turned around, glanced at the surrounding Seventh Rank members, and deliberately said aloud.
Initially, Deceitful Martial was taken aback, but quickly understood Bai Yi’s intention.
The surrounding Seventh Rank members also paused momentarily before becoming excited.
This was clearly Lord Fan Mao deliberately sharing out the credit!
Given everything Lord Fan Mao had done, claiming the entire war as her achievement wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
If she wanted, she could absolutely take all the credit and gather the most contribution, and even they wouldn’t have any objections.
And now, by promising to share the credit, Fan Mao is clearly stating she won’t monopolize it and will distribute the contribution to everyone.
Though she could take it all, she chooses to give it to them, showing her consideration for their losses and deliberately looking out for them!
What a genuinely good person!
The many Seventh Rank present quickly completed a self-guideline in their hearts, their gazes toward Bai Yi now filled with more gratitude.
The Seventh Rank present all understood that they had almost coasted through the entire war.
Even with the final victory, they could only receive symbolic "wages" at most.
While their fleets and various trump cards suffered heavy losses, they themselves were also injured to varying degrees.
Even though the Three Great Civilizations would offer compensation, wars need to continue, and losing fleets and sustaining injuries would mean fewer contributions they could make in subsequent battles.
In truth, it was hard to tell whether they gained or lost.
Now that Fan Mao was willing to relinquish the main credit, it meant they could receive more share.
Even if there’s not much left, it would at least soothe their minds, making the trip worthwhile.
But reflecting on this, a Seventh Rank powerhouse suddenly recalled Bai Yi’s earlier promise before the war, and his brows quirked, eyes widening.
No kidding, really!?
There might be an opportunity for them to participate in upcoming wars, not just rely on their personal combat power!
They might indeed come up with a means with their fleets!
He suddenly realized that when factoring in Fan Mao’s deliberately shared contribution, if converted into resources along with the compensation for their lost fleets, it could serve as an extra cost to have Fan Mao help in quickly repairing their fleets!
Regarding fleet destruction and continued engagement in wars, Fan Mao herself had the most authority!
Before this war, they had witnessed Fan Mao’s methods of rapidly restoring fleets and even expanding them firsthand.
If they could rely on Fan Mao’s techniques to quickly recover their fleets, they could continue to participate in wars and reap more contributions from the Three Great Civilizations!
Thinking this through, he suddenly gained some understanding. Could it be Fan Mao deliberately shared the credit so they would have enough resources to approach her for fleet repairs?
If it weren’t for his discussions with other high-tiers, knowing that it’s a Paradise method and that Fan Mao’s promise included only charging cost prices.
He might have suspected Fan Mao deliberately shared the credit, using such a method to reclaim it as resources, thereby having them owe her a favor.
(Bai Yi: Oh, so that’s how it works... Yes, you’re right, that’s exactly what I intended. )
Now, it seemed more like Fan Mao was intentionally giving them some resources to enable them to approach her for fleet repair!
The resources weren’t a one-time compensation but an opportunity for them to repair fleets and continue earning contributions later!
In his mind, his impression of Fan Mao elevated further, and he even felt guilty for deliberately sending Fan Mao’s fleet to its demise not long ago.
However, these were just his speculations. It wasn’t certain whether Fan Mao would agree to conduct the repairs.
Taking a deep breath, he nervously raised his hand like a child and slightly asked cautiously:
"Lord Fan Mao, is your previous promise to help us quickly repair warships still valid?"
Upon hearing this question, Bai Yi was initially surprised but then became delighted.
Could it be that business is really about to start?
