Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 599 - 316: [Big Dipper Seven Stars Hall - Yaoguang Star Rank] · Family Reward_2
"Since you’ve taken action, you should not have shown mercy, at least you should have killed that servant who started the trouble, to give the other side the greatest deterrence."
Song Chi’s heart skipped a beat, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly downward.
He had long heard that Ru Zu of the family had the most volatile temper, and hadn’t felt it too much before, but now it seemed to be true.
However, upon reflection, he realized that it was indeed the case, as he was unable to deal a killing blow to Anlok, but a servant was no problem at all.
As he was thinking this, Ru Zu spoke again from the head of the table.
This time she finally got to the point.
Her summoning of Song Chi was certainly not just to offer him simple praise.
"Chi, the information related to the Harvesting Civilization that you submitted earlier has been carefully reviewed by all the high-level members of the family, and it indeed helps the family a lot, but a Level 3 Floating Land Origin Core isn’t of much use to a Level 5 Dragon Spine Continent..."
Speaking of this, Song Xingru paused for a moment.
"The consensus in the family is, we want to ask if you have obtained the corresponding shipborne components?"
Upon hearing this, not just Song Chi, but also Song Xingru and all the clan elders of the Song Family who were aware of this matter probably knew what was obvious.

After all, one of the Harvesting Mother Warships that Song Chi had turned in didn’t have an "Origin Core Harvesting Device" installed, and given that the harvesting device could not be removed, the result was clear.
For this, Song Chi actually had no intention of hiding it; in fact, it was deliberate.
Song Chi pretended to be pained as he took out the [Floating Land Origin Core Energy Theft Instrument] voluntarily.
When Song Xingru received this orange component, joy quickly surfaced on her face.
"Good, good... This component is of great use to the family, especially recently. With its help, perhaps the Dragon Spine Continent could quickly advance to Level 6 after the Chenxing Yin Continent, and then Shi Yuan may be able to make a push for Sixth Rank in one go..."
Listening to the elder’s words, which sounded more like a murmur to himself, Song Chi curiously asked in a low voice:
"Ru Zu, can the advancement of Floating Lands actually improve the success rate of warship advancement?"
Song Xingru, brought back from her joy, thought for a moment before explaining:
"When a piece of Floating Land advances, anyone who has contributed to the advancement of the Floating Land can benefit from the energy tide triggered by the successful advancement of the Floating Land, and the Torch Warship, being bound to ourselves, can also receive this benefit."
"Of course, the energy tide triggered by the advancement of Floating Lands of different levels is also different. To benefit a warship at the Battleship level, the Floating Land must at least advance from Level 4 to Level 5."
Song Chi suddenly understood. He had not heard of this before, but now he had gained some knowledge.
However, he quickly turned his gaze to the [Floating Land Origin Core Energy Theft Instrument] in Ru Zu’s hands, and a clear look of reluctance appeared on his face.
This scene was naturally caught by the elder at the head.
Song Xingru laughed a bit annoyed:
"Alright, I know you’re reluctant to part with it, and no one is going to fight you over it. However, the family needs to borrow it for a while, the kind that pays. So, tell me, what do you want?"
Song Chi, who had already considered his answer, did not need any extra thought and quickly gave his reply.
"Titanium Crystals, Law Stones, Fifth-Rank Floating Land Origins..."
A look of surprise crossed Song Xingru’s eyes.
"You don’t need a Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin?"
Song Chi shook his head, as he had synthesized nearly a thousand strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Land Origin in the past half a year, and with his previous stockpile, he already had over a thousand and truly didn’t need any more.
Song Xingru nodded, then pondered for a short while before she gestured, and three piles of resources soon appeared in the main hall.
15,000 Titanium Crystals
1,500 Law Stones
20 strands of Fifth-Rank Floating Land Origin
Song Chi was very satisfied with these three types of resources. With them, he could strengthen multiple components and thoroughly enhance the Cang Qiong.
However, what troubled him was that with the removal of the [Floating Land Origin Core Energy Theft Instrument] component, the energy supply issue of the Cang Qiong had reemerged.
At this moment, the elder Song Xingru continued,
"These are just the rewards for the family borrowing this component over the next several decades, and the merit you achieved with the Harvesting Civilization isn’t included. Think about it, what else do you want?"
These words were like the sound of heaven to Song Chi, filling his heart with immense joy. He still didn’t ponder too much.
"Ru Zu, I want a special component that can amplify the energy supply efficiency…"
Reporting all the merits of the Harvesting Civilization couldn’t possibly make the family directly reward him with a Silver Quality shipborne engine. Thus, he had to settle for the next best thing, something akin to the "Energy Theft" feature he’d had before.
And you wouldn’t believe his luck—Song Xingru had on hand a component just like that.
However, its quality wasn’t all that high; it was merely a Purple Component.
Multi-function Converter lv0
Quality: Purple
Feature: Conversion effect increased by 25%
Consumption: 7/s (Spectral Energy Points)
No need for charging or buffering
Effect: Capable of converting various Starry Sea stray energies to assist the warship engine, enhancing the engine’s energy supply effect by 45%.
UpRank Requirement: 7 strands of Zero Rank Floating Land Origin, 700 Spectral Energy Points
Just in terms of energy supply enhancement, this component even outperformed that "Floating Land Origin Core Energy Theft Instrument". After all, it was a single-function component, and the "Energy Theft" feature of the Floating Land Origin Core Energy Theft Instrument was only a secondary function; stealing the Origin Core was the main feature.
It goes without saying which one holds more value.
As for this, Song Chi was entirely satisfied. Let’s not forget that he had reserved a Harvesting Mother Ship for himself. If he wanted to extract the Floating Land Origin Core, he could simply have it done by Soul Master and Soul Second, without spending a minute of his own time.
Right now, his primary difficulty was energy supply, making the Multi-function Converter more suitable for his current needs. As for the future, well, that was a matter for another time.
After sorting this out, Song Chi quickly returned to his own estate and eagerly commenced a new round of comprehensive enhancements for the Cang Qiong.
First, he enhanced the newly installed Multi-function Converter component, all the way up to lv40.
After Fourth Rank, the improvement to the shipborne engine’s energy supply efficiency reached 90%, which left the Cang Qiong with a considerable surplus of energy, allowing him to comfortably enhance the other components.
Second, he enhanced the Purusa Zen Seal component.
Although he had enhanced it once before, it had only reached lv40 due to a lack of Titanium Crystals. Now, his resources were ample, and he still had over a kilogram of Sand of Time, entirely sufficient to enhance this component to lv50.
After the Purusa Zen Seal came the Mirage Transformation Pearl of Mirage Dragon, a component with significant importance, but currently only enhanced to lv20, which Song Chi found unacceptable.
He continued enhancing until the Silver Legend Component reached lv50, significantly improving the component’s attributes.
It not only further weakened the effects of the Illusion Realms and Illusion Arrays on the warship, but its invisibility feature was also remarkable. Coupled with an astonishingly high priority, it became extremely difficult for other components of similar Quality and Enhancement Level, such as monitoring or radar components, to detect the hidden Cang Qiong.
After these three components, Song Chi fell into hesitation, finding it difficult to choose which component to enhance next.
Ship Cannon
Radar
Energy Shield
Warship Armor
Special Component
There were so many components that could be enhanced, and there was definitely no rule that enhancing one would yield a higher return than enhancing another.
Of course, this didn’t include the two composite components, the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield and the Neutron Star Core Armor.
PS: I’ve considered for a long time but still feel unsure about writing the character Shen Youran well, so I had to delay her character development like this. However, I can assure you that Shen Youran is the female lead. There will be no twists about that in the future; everyone can rest easy.
PS2: My dear readers, please join the group. How is it that with over two thousand followers, only thirty people have joined the group? Do I really need to beg you (╥_╥)?!!!
