Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls-Chapter 434 - 242: Mission and Schemes, Fangs Revealed (Part 2)

Chapter 434: Chapter 242: Mission and Schemes, Fangs Revealed (Part 2)

As long as I don’t say a word, how could Meng Biao obtain it?

Thinking of this, Fang Yu glanced at Meng Biao, then smiled slightly and said calmly, "Alright, this mission isn’t too difficult. I don’t need to bring the Sharp Blade Army along; I’ll just go by myself."

"Once I bring Yun Qiqian to solve the problem here, Old Meng, you better give me a generous reward!"

Fang Yu remained composed.

If you want to know what kind of plan Meng Biao has laid down, it’s simple; just go and take a look.

But there’s no need to rush recklessly; it’s better to prepare before proceeding.

Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, Meng Biao couldn’t help but laugh heartily: "Don’t worry, my brother. This time once you return, help me fix the fault with the sea battle wall, I’ll certainly reward you well!"

"Alright."

Fang Yu also smiled broadly, looking completely unaffected.

...

Fang Yu and Meng Biao quickly settled the time and itinerary for the task, after which Meng Biao left, satisfied.

Watching Meng Biao’s departing figure, Fang Yu thought for a moment, soon he boarded the sea ship, activated the alchemy device in his hand, and softly arranged the setup.

After he was done, Fang Yu placed the alchemy device back and quietly waited inside the sea ship.

A few hours later, a figure drifted gracefully, lightly landing on Fang Yu’s sea ship.

Dressed in white, with a tall and handsome figure, carrying an extraordinary air.

Fang Yu opened the door and glanced at the person, then silently looked at his wheat-colored skin tanned from being at sea for long, inwardly cursing the pretty boy, before quickly smiling and greeting.

"This must be Yun Qiqian, right? This mission will trouble you to investigate the cause of the sea battle wall’s fault."

Fang Yu gestured, inviting the person to the captain’s cabin to rest.

But Yun Qiqian glanced at Fang Yu, still carrying an ethereal and aloof attitude, and laughed: "I recognize you!"

"Recognize me?" Fang Yu was stunned, then laughed: "Old Meng introduced me to you, right? That’s natural."

"No!"

But Yun Qiqian shook his head and said, "I recognized you before coming to Southeast Stone Island. From Yun Tong’s mouth, I heard you were the first customer of the year at the shop, thanks for your patronage!"

"Yun Tong?"

Fang Yu was stunned, a monkey doll with a life-like presence from the Theological Modification Shop appeared in his mind—the shop’s first manager, later...

A new manager took over the gradually popular Theological Modification Shop.

Previously, when Fang Yu returned to Qiyun Port, he intended to meet this mysterious new shop manager.

But unfortunately, the manager wasn’t in the shop at the time, so Fang Yu missed the meeting.

And now...

Looking at the ethereal and showy man in front of him (Fang Yu internally criticized), Fang Yu suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "You... you’re the shop manager of the Theological Modification Shop?!"

"That’s me!"

Yun Qiqian leapt onto the deck and smiled: "Yun Tong is my creation’s divine life, previously managing the modification shop for me. I didn’t expect that with Fang Yu’s visit, the shop did quite well; I should thank you."

Fang Yu was surprised, scratched his head, looking at Yun Qiqian, thinking.

This person... was he sent by Meng Biao to trap me?

But for some reason, Fang Yu felt Yun Qiqian’s aura was gentle and lacked any restless and opportunistic feeling.

A person’s hostility can be disguised, the aura can also be disguised, but the gaze, overall aura, energy level fluctuations, and overall feel are difficult to disguise.

If Yun Qiqian was sent by Meng Biao to trap me, he should secretly harbor ill intentions toward me.

Even if such ill intentions can be hidden, they couldn’t possibly disguise themselves as such kindness and gentleness.

How strange.

Fang Yu couldn’t quite understand Yun Qiqian, so he asked, "Since that’s the case, let’s set off first; we can chat on the way, best to not delay the mission."

Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Yun Qiqian nodded with no objection: "That’s how it should be!"

Fang Yu shook his head, daring his sight to the sea, then ordered the Salted Fish to sail, heading for the coordinates attributed by Meng Biao.

"Buzz!!"

The sea ship emitted a deep rumbling sound, quietly activating its power system, then set off toward the distance, growing farther away.

And just as the Salted Fish left the port of Southeast Stone Island, a sturdy figure stood at the observation tower of the command post, watching the Salted Fish’s departure.

Then the corners of his mouth curled into a meaningful smile...

...

"So handsome... this Yun Qiqian..."

"On Blue Star, he’d definitely be a top-tier celebrity."

"That aura, that look, that skin... remarkable!"

"Good thing we don’t have female crew members on the ship, otherwise Yun Qiqian would have them swooning over him..."

"Forget female crew, even I as a man, think Yun Qiqian is truly handsome! Want to invite Yun Qiqian for a visit to Celestial Capital!"

"???"

"You’re not right!!"

...

Fang Yu’s forehead veins throbbed as he pretended not to hear the crew’s discussions, casually gazing at the distant sea surface, humming an undefined tune.

"Captain, this Yun Qiqian is really ethereal..."

Luo Kuan couldn’t help but come up, with a big face, speaking to Fang Yu, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.

"If I had that kind of appearance, I’d definitely find a top-notch female captain to pamper and protect me, living a luxurious and indulgent life."

Fang Yu: ???

"Luo Kuan, you’ve fallen."

Fang Yu said, pained, extending his hand, sourly stating: "This delicate skin, obviously hasn’t been tempered by wind and sun."

Then Fang Yu rolled up his sleeve, revealing the well-defined lines of his arm and his wheat-colored skin, seriously saying: "Look, this is what real manhood looks like! Understand?!"

"True men are tempered by wind and sun, with wheat-colored skin as the mark!"

"Understand?!"

Luo Kuan squinted at Fang Yu, the Alchemy义眼 glowing with disdain.

"Captain, we might need a grooming mirror on our ship, you can check yourself out often!"

"?"

"Damn Luo Kuan, prepare to die!"

Fang Yu’s energy level surged, fuming with anger.

Still, speaking of which, from a certain angle, Fang Yu was tempered by sunlight and war. Though his skin was wheat-colored, it exuded a wild and powerful beauty, combined with his decent looks, if dressed up, in terms of aura and appeal, might not be inferior to Yun Qiqian.

But these damn crew members, having been used to Fang Yu every day, were inevitably intrigued when suddenly encountering a refined and dignified guy among a group of burly men.

"Brother Fang Yu is right!"

At that moment, Yun Qiqian stepped forward, coming beside Fang Yu, and smiled while saying: "Researchers in Theological Research Institute are too focused on studying divine knowledge, neglecting changes in the outside world, causing the Theological Research Institute to slide down from the peak long ago, even starting to head toward defeat."

"Really should get out more, to feel the sea and sunshine, to perceive the essence of this world, which would greatly benefit theological practice."

Yun Qiqian said emotionally, speaking softly.

Hearing Yun Qiqian’s words, Fang Yu felt something stirring within, glanced at Yun Qiqian, and casually asked:

"Yun Qiqian, those in the Divine Hall study theology, and your Theological Research Institute also researches theology."

"I’ve heard the Divine Hall and Theological Research Institute are both remnants from the Divine Era."

"But now the Divine Hall is ambitious, trying to wage war and revive the glory of the Divine Era, while the Theological Research Institute remains uninvolved. By logic, you two should be one entity, how come now you seem to be on opposite sides?"

"Doesn’t the Theological Research Institute want to revive the glory of the Divine Era?"

Fang Yu met Yun Qiqian’s eyes, his tone calm, though a sharp gleam flashed by.

He’s probing and guarded against Yun Qiqian.

The Divine Hall and Theological Research Institute were products of the same era, perhaps... Yun Qiqian is for this reason, ready to collaborate with Meng Biao and orchestrate a plan?

Upon hearing Fang Yu’s question, Yun Qiqian’s eyes flared with subtle emotion, and then softly he spoke:
