716 – Why They Are Valued (f)reewebnovel
Tang Miao smiled and said, “This is also the reason why I value him. A person’s strength depends on one’s own talent. Our Tang Sect and Shrek Academy have never lacked such geniuses, but it is rare to see someone with talent and strong leadership skills.
“He is not just a talented commander, he is a genius leader. He is a talent that our Tang Sect and Shrek Academy lack. I hope that he doesn’t get into the Inner Court because we will be able to take advantage of him even though I feel that Old Wang will definitely not give us this chance.”
When Lan Xuanyu saw Deng Bo again, Deng Bo’s attitude clearly improved.
Next up was the verification and selection of equipment. They had obtained all sorts of weapons and ammunition from the pirate warships, and after the final verification, it was worth it. After all, those were weapons and equipment from a warship!
After replenishing an antimatter missile, Lan Xuanyu used the remaining money to exchange for a new power system. It was still a power system based on a Positive Circulation Source Soul Circuit, but it was more advanced than what they were currently equipped with. The power output was increased by 40% and the speed by 50%. Of course, the corresponding consumption was much higher.
However, Lan Xuanyu didn’t really care about the expenditure right now. They still had 30 tons of basic rare metals as an energy source, which was enough for a long time.
At the same time, Lan Xuanyu had his eyes on a new weapon. It was a special offensive weapon with extremely strong penetrative power and could penetrate the protective shield of a warship. It was extremely powerful but it was also very expensive.
Lan Xuanyu calculated that their resources were insufficient to exchange for this weapon, but he still paid the deposit first.
Both the new power system and this weapon needed time to be installed. He would order it first and have it delivered in a month.
A month later, the 33 Sky Wings team will have completed at least one mission. Lan Xuanyu and his team’s sparring matches would be almost done, and by then, they would be able to equip these new equipment. f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com
Actually, Lan Xuanyu still had many pieces of equipment that he wanted, but he was short of money.
He was dazzled by the Tang Sect’s weapons database. Some large weapons were too strong for a Meteorite-class assault spaceship, and they were all extremely powerful.
“Captain, are you selling warships or not?” Lan Xuanyu whispered into Deng Bo’s ear.
“What? You still want to buy a warship?” Deng Bo looked at him in shock.
Lan Xuanyu chuckled and said, “Think about it, what if we have money in the future? We don’t need a warship that’s too big, but a Meteor-class assault warship is pretty good. I saw the introduction of the latest model, and it’s much better than ours, especially with the addition of rare metals on top of the alloy, and it has such strong functions. It’s really moving! When we have money in the future, how about we exchange it?”
Deng Bo looked at him and said with an interesting expression, “I have a headache talking to you. We’ll talk when you have enough money.”
Lan Xuanyu: “Alright, we will work hard to earn money.”
“Go away,” Deng Bo said weakly. This brat must have wanted to attack the pirate crew in the first place when he said that it was a coincidence. Liar!
Lan Xuanyu left the Tang Sect in satisfaction. He had spent most of their profits this time and he couldn’t help but sigh. It was so difficult to be in charge!
He was actually not very willing to participate in the sparring competition, it was a waste of time! Although a ton of Sea God Lake water was a good thing, participating in the sparring competition was definitely not as rewarding as carrying out missions.
Upon returning to the academy, Lan Xuanyu received a notice that their competition with the sixth years would be held in three days.
Ding Zhuohan also sent news that the team mission had been accepted. It was an escort mission with a level-three difficulty. It was to escort a commercial spaceship through a region where space pirates might appear, but this region was under the jurisdiction of the Federation.
This mission was very suitable for them and the possibility of encountering a pirate fleet was low because it was unlikely that a pirate fleet would dare to enter the Federation’s territory to plunder commercial spaceships.
After discussing with everyone, Bing Tianliang and Ding Zhuohan decided to accept this mission.
It was fine if they didn’t encounter a pirate fleet, but if they did, they might be able to reap additional rewards. It wasn’t bad either.
Lan Xuanyu agreed with this.
This escort mission was very simple. The main reason for the difficulty of the mission was that it required a warship, which meant that it required resources.
They had a warship and it was an excellent Tang Sect assault one.
Lan Xuanyu only gave a single suggestion, and that was that during the escort process, the 33 Sky Wings warship had to remain invisible and wait for a pirate warship to take the bait.
A commercial spacecraft protected by a Meteor-class assault warship might deter the pirates, but if they chose to remain invisible, they might be able to lure the pirates out. Being invisible would only consume a few rare metals. It was worth it even if there was only one reconnaissance spaceship.
The departure time was two days later, which meant that they wouldn’t be able to cheer for Lan Xuanyu’s team.
If they could successfully complete the mission this time and Lan Xuanyu’s team could also complete theirs, their class would be able to get 11 out of the 24 required difficulty points in only two months. This way, the rest would be much easier.
After dealing with the Purple Fire Pirates and exchanging for resources after returning, Lan Xuanyu understood how important resources were to the team.
Only with sufficient resources would they be able to become stronger. Furthermore, Nana had told him that if he wanted to break through to the five-ring, he would need at least a hundred thousand year grade Heaven and Earth treasure. What about breaking through to six-ring? Wouldn’t he need more resources? He couldn’t do it without money!
The 33 Sky Wings warship’s ammunition was replenished, and all the resources used previously were replenished, including the antimatter missiles. Lan Xuanyu told Ding Zhuohan and Bing Tianliang that if they really encountered danger, they must not be reluctant to use their ammunition. Even if they used up all the antimatter missiles, it was fine as long as they could return safely.
The 33 Sky Wings warship set off once again to carry out their third mission. Lan Xuanyu also brought Bai Xiuxiu, Lan Mengqin, Tang Yuge, Yuanen Huihui, Qian Lei, and Liu Feng to face their opponents.
Lan Xuanyu’s dormitory.
The seven sat in a circle.
Tang Yuge said, “According to the information I received, there are four seven-ring Soul Sages among the sixth years and no Soul Douluo. The rest are six-ring Soul Emperors.”
“Oh, that’s good! It’s good that they don’t have abnormalities like senior Zheng Longjiang.” Lan Xuanyu chuckled.
The others also relaxed.
Lan Mengqin coughed and said, “Isn’t it wrong for us to be like this? We’re facing our Two-Word Battle Armor Master seniors after all, shouldn’t we show them more respect?”
Qian Lei patted his firm chest and said in a low voice, “Defeating them is the greatest respect for them.”
Lan Mengqin rolled her eyes and said, “You make it sound like you can do it alone.”
Qian Lei chuckled. “If I enter a berserk state, it might really work.”
Lan Xuanyu glanced at him and said, “Don’t be arrogant. You only have one mission—to delay Sima Xian. Leave the rest to us. We will do a joint training session in the afternoon. Since everyone’s breakthrough, we have yet to truly practice together.”
Everyone nodded.
Indeed, after everyone broke through, they had yet to truly practice together.
