National Star Sea Era

Agreeing to Pan Ying's following was not entirely due to his potential, but also partly due to the Pan family itself.

Apart from anything else, the eight captains of Zhulu were not a small force in themselves, and this was in the Yinpan River System, so they could better collect various special resources and star sea wonders that could not be converted into shipboard parts for him in the future.

After thinking for a while, Song Chi took out a [Market Walking Order] from the Xinhuo Zuqiao, handed it to Pan Ying, and told him the basic function of the token.

He would not stay in the Yinpan River System for too long. If he wanted to contact him in real time in the future, it would be most appropriate to use the market as a transit point.

After receiving the [Market Walking Order], Pan Ying smiled and led Song Chi all the way to the Pan family's secret vault.

Pan Ying's following him was only one of the conditions, and the previous entry into the secret vault to select three items was also included.

When the two arrived at the door of the underground vault, they were stopped by two Pan family members wearing special armor. Although their level of guidance was only level three, they had level four combat power.

"Elder, this person..."

Pan Ying waved her hand and explained:

"The adults have agreed to help our Pan family. Entering the vault to select three items is one of the conditions."

Hearing this explanation, the two guards were delighted and did not stop them. They let the two enter the vault.

The area of ​​the Pan family's vault is not small, and you can see what it looked like when it was prosperous. Unfortunately, although the vault is not small, many of the shelves are empty, and less than a quarter of them are filled with items.

Seeing this scene, Pan Ying's low voice came to his ears.

"The family has been spending more than it earns in recent years, and the vault is already mostly empty. It was definitely not taken away deliberately before!"

After that, the two began to walk around in the vault.

Red energy shield

Ordinary orange upgraded fire source

60,000 titanium crystals

1 piece of mixed copper

…

As they walked along, various items flashed in Song Chi's eyes. Just when the two were about to finish visiting the secret vault, Song Chi's eyes lit up and he saw something that surprised him.

"Is this antimatter source useful to you?"

Song Chi nodded, and took the large amount of antimatter source without caring that he had not finished looking at all the items in the secret vault.

This antimatter source is almost the same as the one he got from the black hole in the Hun Tian Star Domain. After the [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] swallows it, its evolution progress should reach two-thirds. In this way, it will be one step closer to the complete promotion of this golden sanctuary engine to black quality.

A few minutes later, the two of them walked around the secret vault.

Song Chi's evaluation of the Pan family's secret vault is only two words: very poor.

Compared to the secret vault that was still under construction, the Pan family's secret vault was really shabby. Not only were there no silver-quality rare objects and parts, but there were only four or five red parts, which was really terrible.

Perhaps seeing Song Chi's thoughts, Pan Ying felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh!"

Song Chi shook his head and didn't comment.

After thinking about it, in addition to the first antimatter source, he also took the Hunyuan copper. This thing is a universal strengthening resource, which is often needed in the Zhutian Market. Now he only has one piece left in his hand. With this piece, it will increase to two pieces again, so he naturally has to take it.

As for the final choice, he hesitated for a few seconds and finally walked to the pile of titanium crystals.

He glanced at Pan Ying sideways, and she happened to look over carefully with her crystal eyes. Although she immediately avoided it when her eyes met Song Chi's, Song Chi still saw the tangled look in her eyes.

After thinking about it, he only took half, which is 30,000 out of 60,000 titanium crystals.

It is not difficult to see from Pan Ying's reaction that these tens of thousands of titanium crystals are probably the last reserves of the Pan family. Although he has come forward, the Pan family will not be further suppressed in the future, but if they want to turn defense into offense and change from contraction to outward expansion, they must at least wait until Pan Ying's guidance technique breaks through and completely becomes a formal battleship captain.

In other words, during this period, the Pan family can only use these 60,000 titanium crystals for turnover. If Song Chi takes them all, the Pan family will have a harder time in the future.

Seeing that Song Chi only took 30,000 titanium crystals, Pan Ying's eyes turned into crescents.

"Thank you, sir!"

As she said that, she also took out something from her body.

"Sir, there is also this..."

Turning around, it was the [Fixed Sky Lock Heaven Seal] component that had been returned before.

After taking the silver component, Song Chi's eyes fell on the orange upgraded fire source on the side, and then he turned his eyes to Pan Ying.

"I'll take that orange upgraded fire source as well, is that okay?"

"Yes!"

Pan Ying's answer almost blurted out.

But Song Chi hadn't finished his words yet.

"As compensation, come back in two days, and I'll give you a red upgraded fire source!"

...

Regarding the matter of taking out one of the five nearly mature sixth-level [Silver Apples] to use for the upgraded fire source, Song Chi did not make the decision on impulse, but after careful consideration.

From the moment Pan Ying accepted the master-servant contract, he had been thinking about this matter, and finally made this decision after combining many points.

The most important reason, of course, is its potential. Obtaining the red upgraded fire source in advance can make a qualitative leap in the combat power of Pan Ying's ship, and it can also allow her to do more for herself in front of others in the future.

Two days later, the five sixth-level [Silver Apples] in the [Cultivation Secret Realm] were fully mature.

Song Chi took one out of them and evolved the orange fire source into red. Finally, under Pan Ying's eager and grateful eyes, he handed it to her.

"Okay, go back and retreat. Try to break through the fifth level of the guidance technique in one go. Don't worry about the [Annan Consortium]. I will handle it!"

"Yes, thank you!"

...

In the main control room of Tianxu Cangqiong, Song Chi's eyes moved over the orange parts of the warship.

Soon, he took out the second [Silver Apple] and evolved the [Proportional Zoomer] part into red quality, and strengthened it to level 60.

The new third feature is the "zoom multiple increased by 100%" extracted by Song Chi with the [Origin Improvement Platform of Strange Objects].

In this way, the maximum zoom multiple of this part reached 1000 times. At this multiple, the body of the [Long Finned Whale] was only a kilometer long, greatly reducing the space occupied.

Next came the third, fourth, and fifth [Silver Apple]. After careful consideration, the three [Void Membrane], [Life System Medical Repair Cabin], and [Aurora Transition Device] were finally chosen.

The reason for choosing these three components is very simple.

[Void Membrane] is because its concealment effect is permanent. Compared with the time limit of "Mirage", the permanent concealment state is obviously more important to Song Chi.

The characteristic selected after evolution is the characteristic term "Hidden Authority Improved by One Level" extracted from another high-quality concealment component.

This characteristic was extracted by Song Chi with great effort before, and its effect is also very simple. If other radars want to detect the concealment effect of [Void Membrane], they must exceed [Void Membrane] by one level in quality and enhancement level.

For example, if the [Void Membrane] itself is only enhanced to lv50, and with its current red epic quality, in order to detect its concealment effect and discover the existence of the Tianxu Cangqiong, it must be a silver patrol radar enhanced to lv60 or above, not even lv59.

At this time, Song Chi directly enhanced the [Void Membrane] to lv60, which means that in the future, only silver and higher patrol radars enhanced to lv70 or above can capture the Tianxu Cangqiong in a permanent hidden state.

Of course, if it is a gold-quality patrol radar, because its quality is two levels higher than the [Void Membrane], it only needs to be enhanced to lv60, and the [Void Membrane] will have nowhere to hide in front of it.

But in any case, this feature of "hidden authority increased by one level" is undoubtedly a super-excellent feature. If it is improved to a gold or even black concealment component in the future, the Tianxu Cangqiong will be extremely difficult to be discovered by other creatures and radars in the star sea.

Needless to say, the [Life System Medical Repair Cabin] is a life-saving component.

The last [Aurora Transition Device], the orange-quality transition component has a single transition distance that is still too short, only one thousand light years. In order to rush to the Silver Plate Galaxy this time, most of the time was spent on the road.

After evolving to red quality and strengthening to the sixth level, coupled with a feature that increases the transition distance, the maximum transition distance of the [Aurora Transition Device] has skyrocketed from 1,100 light years to 3,000 light years.

At this point, all the [Silver Apples] have been used up.

How excited Song Chi was when using it, how uncomfortable he is now.

To be honest, he wished that all the orange components on the battleship would evolve to red quality at once, which would be enough to make the combat power of the Tianxu Cangqiong soar again.

However, the actual production speed of [Silver Apples] is a headache. Even with the feature of "Secret Realm Accelerator", the production interval of each round of [Silver Apples] is still as high as more than 20 years, close to 30 years.

Under this premise, it will obviously take a very long time to evolve all the orange parts on the Tianxu Cangqiong to red quality.

Song Chi knew that this was related to the level of the [Silver Apple]. Before this, the production cycle of the fourth and fifth level [Silver Apple] was much shorter than this.

Boom boom boom!

As his mind was spinning, there was a sudden intensive roar above his head.

"It's coming, so fast!"

He quickly left the underground battleship summoning room, and after summoning the Tianxu Cangqiong, Song Chi rushed straight into the sky.

He had already guessed about this attack, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

Above the sky, when Song Chi arrived, the eight Zhulu warships of the Pan family had already arrived. The light at the bow of the eight warships was constantly condensing, and they continued to bombard dozens of Zhulu warships outside the floating land shield.

It was not until they saw the appearance of the Tianxu Cangqiong that the elders of the Pan family breathed a sigh of relief.

Before they could speak, Song Chi raised his hand first, asking the Pan family members to stop their attacks.

At the same time, the three battleships with a length of 10,000 meters in the depths of the outer space also tacitly issued the same order.

Seeing that both sides had ceased fire, the Tianxu Cangqiong rushed straight out of the floating land shield.

After a while, the four battleships successfully met in the starry sky.

In the battleship communication group chat, the extreme battleship captain among the three people of [Annan Consortium] said:

"Friend, I [Annan Consortium] also gave you face. Now the one-year period has expired. It is not in accordance with the rules for you to take action again!"
