I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 385 I've invested in this project through Seeking Stars!
"General, we have spotted a speedboat. The crew has given us the Reid family's markings."

Just as Feng Xue was anxiously waiting for the next development, a sailor on the admiral-class warship was giving a report.

"Don't bother with such insignificant characters." The navy officer in his admiral's uniform waved his hand, but then, as if remembering something, added:
"Check for any traces of Earth's remnants. Our goal is to clean up the Earth's remnants; there's no need to create unnecessary complications."

"understand!"

The soldier knew that this was the most likely outcome, but knowing it was one thing, he still had to report it. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened in the future, a soldier like him couldn't handle it.

Although the fragmentation of the earth has only just begun and there are very few ability users who have even reached the excellent level, the people of the sea, who deeply understand the significance of the Earth God to this world, have no intention of letting it go unchecked. The fact that a Marine Admiral was dispatched is the best proof of this.

As an exceptionally powerful individual, the admiral represents the pinnacle of humanity on this vast ocean. Above that lies the realm attainable only by gods and the legacies of previous civilizations.

However, as the most loyal believer of the sea god, the admiral can also ask the sea god to possess him, so as to get a glimpse of the scenery above the excellence. With such a great Buddha descending, the people of the sea believe that even if the so-called goddess of the earth were to come in person, there would be absolutely no chance.

Feeling the divine power sweep across the speedboat, Feng Xue breathed a sigh of relief. Since a scan had been conducted, it meant that the ship was not attacking indiscriminately.

Seeing the other person turn and leave, Feng Xue couldn't help but express her gratitude to Lena in her heart, and thought that when she became successful in the future, she would go back and help them completely deal with the Hexing people.

However, this was just a thought for now, and after a moment's thought, he brought his mind back to reality.

"The people of the sea seem to be quite interested in the fragments of the Earth God!"

Fina spoke casually, but with a hidden meaning. Feng Xue nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then said:
"I wonder if the family has been involved with those things."

Upon hearing Feng Xue's words, Fina's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but start thinking about how to "frame" the people of the sea so that they could handle everything for her.

But Feng Xue took it all in stride, lowering her voice to speak:

"Don't overthink it. Established powers can't avoid dealing with things like Earth Fragments, but since they've used them, they'll naturally be prepared. The fact that the Seven Islands Alliance can maintain a balance with the Sea People demonstrates the solid position of these established powers. Even if they discover that the Reid family is using Earth Fragments, the Sea People won't take action in the short term."

Hearing Feng Xue say this, Fina was somewhat unwilling, but Sarah told her that Feng Xue was right.

It must be said that maintaining the possession state for a long time has affected Fina's mental state to some extent. At least for now, neither her mania nor depression is as extreme.

Yeah, it's just like how a normal woman acts when she's having a fit of madness.

"Well, it's not entirely fair to say it's not extreme..."

Feng Xue grinned and steered the conversation back to the navigation, while also reminding Xiao Lingdang to post a message on the Seekers Forum.

...In the past two weeks, the seekers of the land have been celebrating as if it were New Year's Day. With the news of the fragments of the Earth God spreading, whether they are newcomers or seasoned veterans who have been in the land-seeking business for many years, they have all begun to move towards the Emerald Isles, an area that can be called a paradise for land seekers.

As a region with advanced technology but relatively weak military power in the pre-civilization era, the Emerald Isles itself has a large number of low-difficulty, high-return pre-civilization ruins. It has been a popular area for land seekers for hundreds of years. Now, with the emergence of the Earth Fragment, those veteran land seekers who have been operating in the area for a long time have shown great enthusiasm.

Although this led to an overcrowding of land seekers, the pursuit of land made each of them choose to take the risk.

"Sigh, I'm still a step too late. Is there no pattern to the spread of these Earth Fragments?" Xunxing re-entered the information of this landing point into the AI ​​for big data calculation, but then turned his attention to the lucky person who obtained the Earth Fragment.

"Sir...I..."

Having grown up in a slum, Wright had never seen such an important person before. Just being the center of attention made him freeze on the spot.

Although Xunxing was a step too late, finding the fragment holder wasn't a complete loss. He adopted the professionalism of a seasoned businessman and spoke in a gentle tone:
"Don't be nervous. Although I really want the Earth Fragment, I don't have the ability to take it from you. Let's make a deal. You tell me everything you see from the Earth Fragment, and I'll give you a generous reward. How about it?"

Hearing what Xunxing said, Little Wright hesitated for a moment, then, as if having made up his mind, said in an almost resolute tone:
"Sir, I don't want any payment. If possible, I would like to have the opportunity to work for you!"

"Oh?" Hearing Wright say that, Xunxing couldn't help but recall his own memories as an apprentice, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips:

"Of course, that's no problem. However, I value ability highly in this job. I'll give you three months to learn. If you're not competent after three months..."

Xunxing didn't continue speaking, but Little Wright already understood. He didn't think about whether this adult was deliberately making things difficult for him; he only knew that this might be his only chance to climb up the social ladder in his life.

So he nodded vigorously, without saying anything like "I'm sure I can do it," and began to recount what he had seen from that fragment of the earth.

However, just as he began to speak, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound. Immediately afterward, the boy saw the previously amiable-looking magistrate's expression turn serious. The moment the magistrate raised his hand to signal him to stop, the boy immediately ceased his narration, anxiously awaiting the outcome...

Xunxing didn't care what the young man was thinking. He quickly opened the Xunluzhe Forum, went to his special attention section, and sure enough, he saw Shenxiao's new post.

However, it wasn't as much information about the Earth God as he had imagined, but its explosive nature was no less.

"Admiral, how long has it been since these guys left their base? It seems this Earth God might actually be quite interesting!"

Upon seeing the words "Admiral," Xunxing, after a brief moment of fear, became excited. If the Sea People had to send their strongest forces to resolve something, it must have touched upon their core interests.

This god of the earth is worth investing in!
