Chapter 750 - 366: The Trapped Crowd in the Divine Hall (Part 2)
But upon hearing the surrounding people’s rebuke, Chen Mian did not back down, and instead seriously spoke up: "Everyone, I’m not joking with you, this is a big deal!"
The crowd was taken aback, looking at Chen Mian in confusion, and then they heard Chen Mian seriously speak: "Do you all remember the new captain Fang Yu I mentioned before?"
"Hey... He has already arrived in the sea temple area, and I have also established contact with him."
Upon hearing Chen Mian’s words, everyone was shocked and exclaimed in disbelief: "Really?"
Someone stood up and quickly walked towards Chen Mian, eyes somewhat impatient.
"Chen Mian, you can’t joke about something like this, you know our situation, don’t casually give the brothers false hope."
Someone spoke loudly to Chen Mian.
Subsequently, silhouettes awakened from silence and all turned their gaze towards Chen Mian, excitement evident in their eyes.
Heavens have mercy.
This group of people trapped on the island is indeed the very first batch of Blue Star Captains who entered the Ocean World.
They enjoyed all the resource dividends, their level increased swiftly.
The man labeled as "Leader" had already attained the Sky Dome Ship level, being the strongest among the Blue Star Captains who descended.
As for the others, though not at the Leader’s level, they too were standout beneficiaries of resource dividends.
A good few dozen captains were at the Legendary Ship level, not far from the Sky Dome Ship.
The remaining nearly hundred captains had all advanced to the Dragon Ship level.
If not for being trapped here and missing many mission opportunities, more people present would have higher levels, with a greater proportion reaching the Legendary Ship level.
All because of that person’s design... Using top-tier treasure news to deceive everyone into entering the Divine Hall.
If not for the Leader’s timely rise to the Sky Dome Ship by borrowing everyone’s spirit, they would’ve likely faced extermination in the Divine Hall.
Still, over this year, bitter battles erupted almost every fortnight between the two sides.
That person was extremely formidable, raising powerful Sea Beasts, both individual strength and influence were truly extraordinary.
At this moment, proximity to the next battle wasn’t far, thus everyone was mostly in a healing state.
Suddenly hearing someone had entered this sea region and established contact, everyone was overjoyed.
"Quick, quick, quick!" someone loudly urged: "Let him help us contact the Blue Star Captains, I refuse to believe the entire Blue Star Captain cohort can’t stand against him."
"Hmph, that person targets all Blue Star Captains; his hatred for them is immense, wanting to annihilate them, hence he is the sworn enemy of all Blue Star Captains!"
"The Peacekeeping Council... Hey, others have their ulterior motives, yet this person just wants to kill the Blue Star Captains."
The crowd collectively sneered, whispering.
"Chen Mian!"
Just then, a firm voice resonated over the island, silencing all previous commotion.
The crowd directed their gaze towards the mountain depths, seeing a burly man awaken from slumber and stride forth.
"Leader!"
Upon seeing this person, everyone hastily greeted respectfully.
Throughout the trapped years, this person had become the spiritual leader of the Blue Star Captains, holding high standing even before being trapped, implicitly regarded as Blue Star’s leader.
Now seeing the Leader arise, Chen Mian promptly approached: "Leader."
"You’re saying Fang Yu came near the Divine Hall sea region?"
The Leader frowned, not sharing the same jubilation as other Blue Star Captains, instead showing caution: "How does he know we’re trapped here? How did he reach the Far Deep Sea?"
"This place is a perilous area beyond civilization, even few Sky Dome Ship masters are willing to come, let alone an ordinary Blue Star Captain."
Listening to the Leader, Chen Mian smiled, then explained Fang Yu’s purpose for venturing to the Far Deep Sea to the Leader and surrounding Blue Star Captains.
Since communicating with Fang Yu, Chen Mian learned from him the reason for coming to this sea region, thus explained clearly and precisely.
Listening to Chen Mian, the Leader’s eyes reflected a thoughtful look, then slightly nodded: "I see, so Fang Yu is planning to persuade the Sea Race to go to the West Qinghai Sea Region to pacify the Spiritualist chaos?"
"Correct!"
Chen Mian nodded, then quietly added: "Leader, not only that, Fang Yu also wants to join forces with us for a task."
"Oh? What task?"
The Leader’s eyes gleamed.
"Cooperate from within, join forces with the Sea Race to strike that person..."
Chen Mian slowly replied.
...
"The earliest batch of Blue Star Captains was really trapped in the Divine Hall."
At this moment, on the way back to the Sea Race territory, Fang Yu murmured, eyes reflecting a hint of surprise: "These Blue Star Captains not only weren’t stripped of their ship and panel, but during a year of silence, under survival pressure, focused on Law Comprehension, advancing further."
Indeed surprised, Fang Yu didn’t expect the earliest batch entering this world to reach such heights.
Fang Yu’s own fast progress in Law Comprehension also made him understand the greatest weakness for Blue Star Captains wasn’t their path or level but Law!
The path grows naturally with accumulated resources.
Level grows faster holding task resources compared to natives.
However, Law, though Blue Star Captains due to their dual world viewpoints and superior Blue Star education, have slightly quicker comprehension than natives.
Yet far from as advantageous as their panels, so Blue Star Captains still need steady steps for Law Comprehension, can’t take shortcuts.
Thus their Law comprehension progression falls far behind their level advancement, shown in the previous battle with Jiang Lin.
Back then, Jiang Lin was an Extraordinary Ship Captain, but his Law Comprehension was only at Warship Level, just first-level, known as the weakest Extraordinary Ship Captain.
He was merely an example, many Blue Star Captains’ pain point was Law Comprehension progression being slower than level advancement.
But this batch trapped in the Divine Hall, during the year’s time hardly leveled up or gained resources, just survived on the island barely ensuring enough food, nothing else.
With the Peacekeeping Council attacking periodically, it pressured the Blue Star Captains to improve greatly, making them spend much of the year immersed in Law Comprehension.
Day after day, waking up without anything else, just comprehend Law.
And comprehension was a necessity, without it, when the food runs out, they can’t leave and will starve.
This meant the Peacekeeping Council person inadvertently provided an excellent retreat for Law comprehension, even encroaching monthly, validating the Law comprehension in battle.
Though his true intent was surely to kill the Blue Star Captains.
Unintentionally, brought this group an impeccable opportunity to advance.
"Really... enjoying all dividends followed by external disasters forcing them to patch their weaknesses."
Fang Yu murmured, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Damn...
This group indeed follows the protagonist script, akin to falling off a cliff into a cave only to train daily upon waking!
Though Fang Yu hadn’t met the Leader.
Yet a newly advanced Sky Dome Ship Blue Star Captain gradually capable of thwarting Peacekeeping Council level master assaults.
Clearly, the Leader’s Law Comprehension rapidly advanced this year, becoming frighteningly effective.
Should this group escape, regaining the environment to acquire resources and experience, alongside a year of retreat-style Law comprehension, they may grow terrifyingly powerful indeed.
Fang Yu’s eyes revealed a hint of unusualness.
Yet after today’s brief exchange, Fang Yu roughly understood the Leader’s stance.
In the future, these Blue Star Captains won’t be foes but friends; their strength is my joy.
Thinking of this... Fang Yu urged the Salted Fish onward, swiftly sailing back to the Sea Race’s habitat.
