Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 966 The Wreckage of the Imperial Warship

[Dear Ascension Trialist Steelheart, based on your performance in the continuous missions, you have been awarded 150 exchange points.]

The following are the available reward options:

Option 1: Title of Nobility: You will receive the noble title of Imperial Baron and the Baron's coat of arms. You will need to spend 100 exchange points.

Bai Pu glanced at the description of the baron's crest and immediately gasped.

All attributes +40! Health +4000 points!
Gain 2 points of priority against mind control skills!
This bonus effect completely overrides the benefits of the [Silver Gladiator's Mark] –

Bai Pu has inherited Karamango's property and become a de facto partner of the Crimson Blood Arena, equivalent to the status of a "Golden Gladiator".

However, since gold-medal gladiators need to be certified by the headquarters of the Crimson Blood Arena, Bai Pu only has the "mark of a silver-medal gladiator" so far, which means all attributes are increased by 25.

It's so awesome to be able to jump from 25 to 40 in all attributes right now.

After all, an Imperial Baron is already among the middle-ranking nobles of the Empire, holding a higher status than Karamango.

Karamanco was just a minor nobleman at the lowest level, equivalent to the "knight" class in feudal times.

Bai Pu continued reading.

Option Two: Equipment. You can exchange equipment from Gallius's collection. The equipment must be at least blue and at most unique. Each piece of equipment exchanged will cost 75 exchange points.

Option 3: Items. You can exchange items from Gallius's collection. The item must be at least Grade A and can be as high as Grade A Gold. Each item exchange will cost 50 exchange points.

Option 4: Spirit Crystals. You can exchange Spirit Crystal Lucky Bags from Gallius. Each lucky bag contains 100 Spirit Crystals and can trigger a maximum of five times the normal value. Each Spirit Crystal Lucky Bag will cost 50 exchange points.

The first four redemption options are fairly standard and conform to common understanding of "task rewards".

The redemption options that appeared later gradually became distorted.

[Imperial Rifleman: You can exchange for Imperial Riflemen from Gallius. Imperial Riflemen are all standard templates, equipped with Magic Crystal Rifles (requires ammunition replenishment) and Steel Bayonets. Each Imperial Rifleman you exchange for costs (10) exchange points.]

[Imperial Grenadier: You can exchange for an Imperial Grenadier from Gallius. The Imperial Grenadier is an elite template, equipped with small magic crystal bombs (requires resupply) and a steel war sword. Each Imperial Grenadier you exchange for costs (25) exchange points.]

Other unit types include Imperial Spearmen, Imperial Heavy Armorers, and others.

What interested Bai Pu the most was the last column for the types of soldiers.

[Imperial Warship: You can exchange one fully functional Imperial Warship with Gallius. An Imperial Warship is 75 meters long, 12 meters wide, and displaces 1800 tons. It is equipped with two Magic Crystal Annihilation main cannons at the bow and stern, and 24 rapid-fire Magic Crystal cannons (12 x 2 = 2) on its sides. It is protected by arcane magic arrays and carries 137 Imperial sailors. To exchange for one Imperial Warship, you need to pay (10000) exchange points.]

Bai Pu checked and found that all the troop types he had exchanged, whether riflemen or imperial warships, were considered his private property.

The participation of these combatants will not reduce the value of Bai Pu's loot chests, nor will it lower his rating!
However, the Imperial warship's terrifying 10,000 exchange points are simply...

It simply can’t be done!
Bai Pu led the completion of the 5-step continuous mission, but only received 150 exchange points.

Both the Great and Small Witches have dozens of exchange points, which can be traded to Bai Pu. Added together, they have a little over 200 exchange points, but that's still far from 10,000.

Bai Pu thought for a moment, then temporarily exited the exchange interface and said to Gallius, "My lord, I want an Imperial warship... without so many Imperial sailors, just enough to keep the basic crew, is that alright?"

Gallius shook his head and said, "Even an empty ship is something you can't get in exchange for right now."

"What if I don't want the cannon?" Bai Pu then asked.

"That's not enough, far from it. Diaz, you explain to Dio the composition of an Imperial warship."

Before Bai Pu's eyes appeared text from the spirit realm's will, listing the prices of different configurations of the imperial warships.

[Imperial Warship Sailors (137 sailors at full capacity): Total price 1000 exchange points.]

【帝国战舰的魔晶炮：魔晶湮灭炮（主炮）1000兑换点数一门，速射魔晶炮（侧舷副炮）100兑换点数一门。满载2门主炮和24门副炮，打包总价4000兑换点数。】

[Imperial Warship's Magical Melee Interception Device: Package price 2000 exchange points.]

[Imperial Warship Hull: Magic-plated Alloy Steel + Spirit-patterned Wood + Power Furnace, etc., total price 3000 exchange points.]

Even if it were a disassembled, unpackaged set, none of the items would be something Bai Pu could afford.

Bai Pu suddenly said, "Lord Gallius, the Imperial fleet seems to have suffered some serious damage in this naval battle."

Gallius gave a barely perceptible smile.

“You’re right, Dio. The orcs’ sudden attack has severely damaged the Imperial fleet. One of the warships is in serious condition; its hull is flooded and its propulsion system is on the verge of failure, making it impossible to return.”

Bai Pu's eyes lit up, feeling even more certain that he had grasped the key point. "Sir, what are your plans regarding this severely damaged warship?"

Gallius said, "I have ordered people to dismantle the remaining magic crystal cannons and power systems, to completely scrap it, and to sink it to the bottom of the sea."

“Sinking to the bottom of the sea is not good. The Naga are a race that is good at underwater movement.”

Bai Pu thought from Gallius's perspective, "If the Naga find this ship, they can deduce the structure of the Imperial warships from it, which will greatly increase the threat to the Imperial warships in the future, and they might even be able to replicate it!"

“Dio, you’re right. So tell me, what should we do?” Gallius asked.

Bai Pu laughed and said, "How about I keep this wrecked warship as scrap metal? I won't keep the magic crystal cannons, but I'll keep the propulsion system... How about that?"

Gallius frowned and said, "There is no precedent for selling Imperial warships to civilians... If I do this, I will face a lot of criticism."

Bai Pu calmly exchanged for the noble title of [Imperial Baron], spending 100 exchange points, and laughed, "After this battle, am I still just a low-level noble like Karamango?"

“No, you can accumulate merit and rise to the rank of Imperial Baron… but then you won’t have enough merit to exchange for the warship wreckage,” Gallius said.

"What if we add this head to the mix?"
