National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 740: Burning Silence Continent
Fenji Continent, Tianhuo Mountains.

Countless warships with amazing captains flew through the sky, leaving behind only bursts of fierce artillery fire along the way.

Beams of light fell one after another, and the thorny mountains and fields were covered with flames. Amidst the flying gravel, some red figures hidden in the mountains were greatly affected and were constantly annihilated in the wailing.

After this round of high-intensity artillery fire, the dense low- and medium-level warships hovering at low altitude in the distance swooped over quickly, taking advantage of the unprepared red figures on the mountain front that had not yet recovered from the artillery bombardment, and inflicted as much damage as possible on them.

……

"Lu Da, Lu Er, you are responsible for attracting attention. Li Niang, don't be stingy with your orange super cannon. The follow-up team will reimburse you double the amount of purple diamond crystals."

"Captain, leave it to us!"

"If you were this generous on weekdays, why would I be so stingy?"

In the exploration team's internal communication group chat, all team members are communicating quickly.

As a team with hundreds of years of exploration history, the members have already participated in many operations together. At this moment, as the battleship captain spoke, the team members under his command quickly completed the division of labor in an orderly manner.

Two Zhulu ships equipped with orange hull armor rushed towards a newly reorganized red biological army below.

Behind the two, more Zhulu warships were wandering in the sky, with white light condensing at the bows and their guns were being charged.

In addition, the only battleship in the team headed towards the fifth-level red alien creature that was flying over from below.

With this tacit cooperation, and the fact that these red aliens all had some injuries to varying degrees, this team of more than 20 warships finally succeeded in wiping out the entire red alien force at the cost of only one warship sinking and two temporarily losing their mobility.

However, they are a minority after all. In the mountain front that stretches for billions of kilometers, the situation is mostly like killing one thousand enemies but losing eight hundred of your own.

It took a full half month before the battle on the mountain front was finally over, and Captain Xinhuo's side barely won the victory.

Over the flaming land, more than a dozen warships were flying at full speed in a certain direction. The warships' magnetic wave communication group chat:

"Captain, this should be enough time for us to rest for a few years, right?"

"That's impossible. Two fifth-tier Red Flame Mandrills and over thirty fourth-tier Red Flame Mandrills, the source blood that can be extracted from them alone is enough for our team to rest for decades. Not to mention that we have also looted tens of thousands of tons of Red Flame Iron Ore, which is also worth a lot."

Listening to the discussion among the team members in the group chat, the captain of the battleship also nodded slightly and said:

"indeed so!"

After hearing his exact reply, cheers finally broke out in the group chat.

They are all veterans of the exploration team, and they still trust their captain very much.

As a veteran battleship captain, their captain has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to make use of all the gains this time.

At this time, someone in the group chat asked curiously:
"Captain, I heard that a new store opened in Tianhuo City not long ago. I remember it was called Dinghai Commercial Building. As far as I know, this Dinghai Commercial Building buys all kinds of fire-attribute resources in large quantities. As long as the quantity is sufficient, the purchase price they offer is much higher than that of other stores!"

"I've heard about it, but the key is that the other few stores are really undercutting the price. How about we go to Dinghai Commercial Building this time?"

"Row!"

……

Skyfire City.

As one of the few resident cities of the Xinhuo human civilization on the seventh-level life floating land of Fenji Continent, it covers a very large area.

The red city wall made entirely of thick red stone stands tall above the earth, surrounding the entire city tightly. Warships with different captains rise and fall, making the scene very lively.

The first to discover the Burning Silence Continent was an immortal force. After struggling to enter the interior of the continent, they found that the Burning Silence Continent was different from the ordinary seventh-level life floating continent. The Red Fire Mountain Goblins bred on it were extremely powerful, with more than twenty seventh-level Red Fire Mountain Goblins alone. It was simply not something that an ordinary immortal family could deal with.

For this reason, this immortal clan had to take the initiative to cooperate with several friendly immortal forces, and only then was they able to barely take over some territory on the Fenji Continent. Later, in order to maintain this situation, several immortal clans took the initiative to issue a call to action in the territory of the Xinhuo human civilization, and actively attracted a large number of civilian captains and exploration teams to help them resist the fierce counterattack of the Red Fire Mountain Xiao clan.

Over time, the coordinates of the Fenji Continent are no longer a secret.

After thousands of years, many Xinhuo human settlements have been established on the Fenji Continent. More and more forces are gathering on this seventh-level floating land, constantly exploiting various resources on the floating land.

Tianhuo City, Second Street.

Dinghai Commercial Building.

As a shop that was just opened a few years ago, Dinghai Commercial Building has a very good reputation, which has made this shop particularly popular recently.

On the top floor of the shop, there is a reception room.

"Captain Huang, I want all the red flame iron in your hands. Happy cooperation!"

"Haha, Manager Chuan is really straightforward!"

"This is the fifth-level floating land origin you asked for, Captain Huang. If there are raw mineral resources of this scale in the future, please give priority to my Dinghai Commercial Building!"

"Of course, Manager Chuan, don't worry."

"By the way, I heard there's been a lot of commotion in the Skyfire Mountains recently. Does Captain Huang know anything?"

"Stop talking, I just came from there. I don't know what's wrong with the Red Mountain Mandrill. They suddenly dispatched a large number of Mandrill troops to attack the Skyfire Defense Line as if they were risking their lives. But there's no need to worry. The Red Mountain Mandrill army has been severely damaged by the Sun and Liu families. The Skyfire Defense Line is still in our hands!"

……

"Yellow Team, slow down!"

At the gate of Dinghai Commercial Building, more than ten Xinhuo captains were seen off with a smile, and the manager of the building quickly turned around and went to the top floor of the building.

When they entered the special secret room, the manager who had a faint smile on his face a moment ago suddenly changed his expression and said indifferently with a blank expression:

"It has been basically confirmed that something big must have happened in the Skyfire Mountains. To have caused such a big reaction from the Red Fire Mountain Xiao Clan, it is highly likely that some special resources were discovered in the Skyfire Mountains."

"You must return to the clan as soon as possible and bring five shadow teams here in my name. I want to see what they have discovered that could make the Red Mountain Xiao clan so crazy!"

"By the way, the business building has recently accumulated a lot of fire-attribute resources. You can send them back to the family!"

"As ordered!"

……

Not long after, a battleship hidden in the depths of the void rose silently into the sky. When it rushed to the deep sky of the Fenji Continent, violent space fluctuations suddenly appeared around the battleship's hull, and then the battleship completely disappeared in the sky.

It was not until the battleship completely disappeared that the gaze from the Tianhuo City on the surface below was withdrawn. In the secret room on the top floor of Dinghai Commercial Building, the shadow of the double pupils in Song Yichuan's eyes slowly dissipated after he withdrew his gaze.

As a fearless captain, he is naturally one of the core members of the Longji Song family.

Because of this, even though the family's [Double-Ming Divine Bird Breeding Plan] that has lasted for a thousand years has still achieved limited results, he has already been allocated the contract rights for a Double-Ming Divine Bird.

After seeing with his own eyes that the battleship captain had successfully left, he was completely relieved and turned his attention back to the business transaction.

The Fenji Continent is a typical floating continent with fire attributes, rich in all kinds of fire-attribute resources. This is also the fundamental reason why the family sent him here.

For hundreds and thousands of years, various types of fire resources have been continuously invested in the Yanshen clan's inheritance site, and now that space is on the verge of transformation.

As long as the transformation can be completed, the Song family will have a stable production channel for silver and lower fire-related rare objects in the future. For any immortal family, this is of utmost importance.

However, at this last moment, the Song family also needs to invest more fire-attribute resources. Only in this way can they ensure the successful transformation of the Yanshen clan's heritage site.

Song Yichuan came to the Fenji Continent because of the high yield of various fire-attribute resources here. The current emergency was not within the Song family's expectations, otherwise he would not have to temporarily go to the family to call on the Shadow Tribe members.

“I hope I can catch up!”

……

Half a day later, a small fleet that had been hidden deep in the void descended rapidly from the sky.

Because of prior orders, dozens of warships in this fleet did not land on Tianhuo City, but went straight to Tianhuo Mountains.

This small fleet is composed of the five shadow teams of the Song family.

The Song Family Film Department has undergone many reforms since its development, and its internal specifications are now different from when it was first established.

The Film Department now has over 100,000 employees under its jurisdiction. Despite the large number of people, the internal division is extremely simple and clear.

Except for the Shadow Minister who is the fearless captain and the two Shadow Vice Ministers, the rest are a team of ten tribesmen.

Yes, there is only the team organization. The Shadow Department of more than 100,000 people is divided into tens of thousands of teams.

As for why this is the case, the reason is very simple. The Shadow Tribe members are usually responsible for secretly collecting information, tracking, investigating and other tasks. This kind of task is naturally not suitable for a large number of tribesmen to act together, as that will only increase the chance of being exposed.

In comparison, the ten-man team organization is the most appropriate.

Of course, although there are only squads as the organization, there are tens of thousands of Shadow Department squads, which are divided into four levels: Tiandi, Xuanhuang.

Yellow-level team: a team of ten consisting of all second-level escort captains
Xuan-level team: a team of ten people, all composed of third-level cruiser captains
Ground-level team: ten fourth-tier chasing captains
Heavenly Class Squadron - Ten Tier 5 Battleship Captains

Of these four types of teams, the largest number is naturally the yellow-level team, with as many as 9000 teams, and the black-level team, with 1000 teams.

There are only ten local-level teams in the entire Shadow Department.

As for the heavenly level team, there is only one.

Among the five teams that Song Yichuan transferred this time, four were Xuan-level and the last one was a Di-level team.

In other words, Song Yichuan's status is high enough. If he was a fifth-level member of the family, his highest authority would only be to mobilize the Xuan-level team.

The warships rushing in the front at this moment are none other than the ten Zhulu ships. These ten Zhulu ships belong to the eighth ground-level team of the Song Jiaying Department. All ten Zhulu ships in the team are equipped with red-quality [Void Membrane], and there is even a small group temporary concealment component on the team leader's ship.

With the blessing of double concealment, the ten Zhulu warships landed silently in the Tianhuo Mountains without attracting the attention of the several immortal families stationed on the mountain's defense line.

However, even if they quietly entered the mountain defense line, the exploration work was obviously not that easy.

It was not until nearly half a month later that Song Yichuan, who was far away in Tianhuo City, received the message from the earth-level team.

Dinghai Commercial Building, secret room on the top floor.

Song Yichuan's eyes flickered and for a moment he seemed unable to make up his mind.

Just now, he received a message from the ground-level team. The content of the message was very simple, only a few sentences, but the implications were not small.

[A secret entrance was discovered in the Tianhuo Mountains, suspected to be the original secret entrance! ]

The value of a secret realm is neither high nor low. It depends on the specific level of the secret realm and the specific resources it produces.

This is exactly what Song Yichuan is struggling with right now. The information sent back did not clearly state the specific level of this secret realm, including the production of secret realm resources.

What if it was just a broken secret realm? The same was true for the Xinghai Secret Realm. For the Song family today, only secret realms above the original level were attractive enough.

If it is an ownerless secret realm, then it is easy to deal with. The key is that this secret realm is now controlled by many immortal families. If the Song family wants to intervene, they will inevitably come into conflict with several immortal families.

If the secret realm is of great value, then the Song family's fate is not impossible, but the fear is that the value of this secret realm is limited.

For a moment, Song Yichuan was a little confused.

After thinking for a while, he finally made a decision.

"Somebody come!"

"Kawazu!"

"You should return to Dragon Ridge Continent immediately and explain to the original ancestor the current situation of Fenji Continent. You should say that the value of that secret realm is very high."

……

In the end, Song Yichuan decided to inform the family's Star-Destroying Ancestor. It was not that he was making a fuss, but judging from the reactions of the Red Mountain Xiao clan during this period, he always felt that the value of that secret realm was extraordinary.

For this, he was willing to take a gamble.

Even if he would receive a small punishment for this, Song Yichuan knew that once he made the right bet, he would gain unexpected rewards.

Thinking of this, a glimmer of anticipation flashed in his eyes.

Although his ship is still far from being an ultimate dreadnought, this does not prevent him from making preparations in advance for future attacks on star destroyers.

His talent is not as high as that of his elder brother Song Yiming. The clan will give him certain support, but he still has to prepare a lot of resources by himself. To do this, he must first accumulate a lot of contributions.

In less than half a day, a strange star destroyer landed on the Fenji Continent. Like the previous Song family's Shadow Fleet, this star destroyer had not been discovered by the other immortal families on the continent from beginning to end. After meeting up with Song Yichuan, the Acala headed straight for the Tianhuo Mountains.
