National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 271 The Sky Promotion Mission Begins

Yes, after returning to the Tenth Direct Vein Station, Song Chi directly started the battleship upgrade mission, and he was not in a hurry to absorb even the orange top-grade [Star Fire].

Anyway, before the Sky was promoted to a cruiser, no matter whether the fire was purple or orange, the enhancement level of the battleship components would not be able to exceed the fifth level. In addition, the special slots were completely sufficient, and his grandfather was also urging him, so Song Chi simply started the battleship promotion task directly.

[Battleship promotion mission (Qiong)]

[Current promotion success rate: 0.1%]

【晋升特殊资源配方（0/3）：冰源石*1、万年火山熔岩铁母*1、三阶血核*1】

[Additional promotion resources: none]

[Bathing in the blood of aliens: None]

Unlike the initial 1% success rate of upgrading a psionic airship to a frigate, the initial success rate of upgrading a frigate to a cruiser is only 0.1%. This means that if you upgrade directly without any preparation, only 1000 frigate out of 1 may succeed, which is a very low probability.

In addition, the special resources needed for the Sky to be upgraded to a cruiser were not as unlucky as before. Only three of the four possible resources were needed, and the Tianlong Crystal was not used.

In the Sky, Song Chi took out three resources one after another, which were the ice source stone, the third-level blood core and the ten-thousand-year-old volcanic lava iron mother.

The latter two were prepared by Song Chi himself, while the Ice Source Stone was obtained from the family sequence subsidy resources.

As these three resources were successively integrated into the warship's hull, the current promotion success rate also changed abruptly.

The original 0.1% instantly increased to 10.1%.

After finishing this, a component that had just been temporarily lent to him by the vein was activated on the Sky, a blue-quality battleship mosaic device.

Because it is the lowest quality mosaic component, this component can only generate one mosaic light band, which can only mosaic one Xinhuo battleship and the Cangqiong together.

As for the warship that is being integrated at this moment, it is neither the [Furious Lion] nor the [Mountain], but a 20-meter-long psionic airship on this side of the pulse.

This psionic airship is a transit warship arranged by the Pulse. In addition to it, there are several members of the Pulse inside the airship. They will all leave space beacon marks on the Blood Savage Continent and will serve as transit warships traveling between the Blood Savage Continent and the Tenth Direct Vein in the future.

In addition, Song Mingsong and Song Shan, who had retracted their ships, were also among them.

In order for the Sky to be promoted to the third level, it needs to bathe in the blood of alien races. This is naturally not something that can be accomplished in just 24 hours, and the subsequent transfer warships must be arranged.

Accompanied by strong spatial fluctuations, the Sky, which activated the [Holy Cross Beacon] component, towed another psionic airship and disappeared over Qingyue Lake.

Alien star region, bloody floating land.

As a Level 3 life-type floating continent in the star sea, the area of ​​the Blood Barbarian Continent can only be considered average among all the Level 3 floating continents and is not considered large.

It is precisely for this reason that the news that the Sky had recently massacred two large tribes has now spread throughout the entire continent, greatly increasing the vigilance of the large Wolf Barbarian tribes on the continent.

Just as the two warships were launched into the sky outside the floating land and soon after they landed inside the floating land, they were immediately discovered by a large wolf tribe nearby.

Above the sky, the totem beast of this tribe had already entered its true totem form long ago. With the blessing of a large amount of faith power, an inexplicable fourth-order pressure spread from the sky above the tribe to the surroundings.

In the Sky, Song Chi stared intently at the golden eagle shadow with a wingspan of several thousand meters opposite, without any change in expression on his face.

Compared with the "Cold Moon Snow Python" on the Sky, the golden eagle totem beast of this tribe is obviously far inferior.

Because of the limitation of Fu Lu's own level, it always stays at the peak of the third level. Also, due to the lack of strength in its own bloodline, it is difficult to touch the threshold of the half-step fourth level. This also means that it has not comprehended any power of laws, and only has the fourth-level energy blessed by totem faith.

This is like a person who has internal strength but lacks the means to fully utilize and release it. Compared with real creatures of the same level, his combat power is pitifully weak.

With the assistance of the [Furious Lion] and [Mountain] on its side, it didn't take long for the golden eagle to fall under the [Pure Yang Sword Cannon].

Looking at the battleship upgrade success rate, it has increased from the previous 10.1% to 10.2%. That is to say, a third-order peak-level alien only increased the success rate of the Sky by 0.1%.

Fortunately, in addition to the totem beast, the third-level wolf barbarians and those second-level wolf barbarians in this wolf barbarian tribe can also improve the success rate.

The third-level wolf barbarian is the same as the spiritual beast golden eagle, which is also 0.1%. The effect of the second-level wolf barbarian is negligible. After dozens of them, it can only increase by 0.1%.

After all the second- and third-level wolf barbarians in this wolf tribe were killed, the promotion success rate of the Sky barely reached 13%.

The three warships then continued to head towards the second large tribe.

Time passed slowly in this daily routine, and three months went by in a flash.

During these three months, the three warships have slaughtered more than twenty large wolf tribes. With the addition of a large number of second- and third-level wolf tribes, as well as totem spirit beasts at the peak of the third level, and even a few totem spirit beasts at the half-step fourth level, the success rate of the Sky's promotion is now not far from 60%.

But this is not enough. The promotion of cruisers is not a trivial matter, and the promotion success rate of less than 60% is still too low.

Therefore, the three warships continued to roam on this bloody continent.

One of the last few large tribes left in the Blood Barbarian Continent, the Howling Moon Silver Wolf Tribe.

Because the totem beast itself is extremely compatible with the Wolf Barbarian Tribe, and the Howling Moon Silver Wolf's own bloodline is also quite good, it reached the level of half-step fourth level very early on.

Therefore, this battle was particularly fierce.

Compared to when Song Chi dealt with the Hanyue Snow Python, this is much more dangerous.

However, this is based on the perspective of the frigates and cruisers. At this moment, Song Mingsong personally controls the [Furious Lion] to fight against the Zhulu ship, and the situation is completely different.

Because Song Mingsong himself does not yet possess the power of the mind in the telepathic state, the [Furious Fighting Lion] is indeed unable to exert the mythical mecha form of a chasing ship, which is its most powerful means. But even in the form of a battleship, it is also a real fourth-order combat force. Facing the Howling Moon Silver Wolf in front of it that is blessed by the totem's true body, it is completely crushed.

Not long after, this half-step fourth-level Howling Moon Silver Wolf was dragged to the front of the Sky by the [Furious Fighting Lion] like a dead dog.

Song Chi didn't hesitate and directly activated the [Pure Yang Sword Light Cannon] to end the opponent's life.

With the blessing of this half-step fourth-level alien blood, the success rate of the Skyship's promotion increased by another 0.5%. [Warship Promotion Mission (Skyship)]

[Current promotion success rate: 60.2%]

【晋升特殊资源配方（3/3）：冰源石石*1、万年火山熔岩铁母*1、三阶血核*1】

[Additional promotion resources: none]

[Bathing in the blood of alien races: Half-step fourth-order Howling Moon Silver Wolf... a total of 50.1%. ]

At this point, the success rate of Sky's promotion officially exceeded 60%.

"There are still many second- and third-level wolf barbarians in this Howling Moon Silver Wolf Tribe. We cannot let go of its tribal treasure house. If it is like the one in front, and there are 15 strands of fourth-level floating land essence, it will be quite good..."

Grandpa's reminder came from the [Furious Lion]. Three warships landed one after another. Song Chi began to kill the second-level and above wolf barbarians in the tribe. Grandpa and uncle were responsible for searching for the tribal treasure house of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf Tribe.

After several hours, the Sky had basically killed all suitable Wolf Barbarians. At this time, a shout from the uncle was heard in the distance, and it seemed that the treasure house of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf Tribe had been found.

When Song Chi and Song Mingsong gathered together, they found that Song Shan had indeed discovered the location of the treasure house, but what caused him to exclaim was not the treasure house itself, but a strange object emitting purple light in the secret room next to the treasure house.

Song Chi was quite familiar with this cylindrical strange object.

Totem pillar lv0
Quality: purple

Features: Totem Pattern
Consumption: 8/s (psi energy points)

Effect: Bind a living being and transform it into a totem beast {currently bound (none)}. Sacrificing and worshipping the totem beast will automatically accumulate totem faith value. The totem beast consumes totem faith and can provide special blessings to itself or totem believers.

Faith pool: 0/1000 (each zero-level worshiper can provide 1 point of faith value per day)
No need for charging and buffering

Required for upgrade: 8 strands of floating land source (zero level), 800 nether energy points, 8 life cores (zero level)

{Totem Pattern: Inscribe a totem pattern on a zero-level worshiping creature. Within a radius of 1 meters of the totem pillar, the person who inscribes it will be able to actively activate the totem pattern to bless himself, which lasts for 144 minute and has a cooling time of hours. }
After looking at the properties, Song Chi became more and more certain that this rare item was a weakened version of the [Totem Spirit Pillar] component on the Sky.

Not only is it of purple quality, it also does not have the feature of "Totem True Body", and its effect is much worse than the orange quality [Totem Spirit Pillar].

But to be honest, even just based on the characteristic of "totem pattern", this component can be regarded as a very good amplification component.

In response to this, Song Chi naturally withdrew from the allocation as soon as possible.

Song Mingsong and Song Shan knew that there was a similar component on the Song Chi battleship, and they did not say much. As for the final ownership of this purple [Totem Spirit Pillar] component, the old man gave it to his uncle Song Shan.

According to Song Mingsong, now that the [Furious Lion] has been promoted to a Deer-Chasing Ship, it does not lack the combat power boosted by a few enslaved creatures. In comparison, the Mountain needs it more.

The uncle did not hesitate to respond, as he really needed the part.

Apart from this purple wonder, there were no other eye-catching resources in the treasure house. There were only a few thousand strands of third-level floating land origin, which were finally divided among the three people.

Song Chi was determined not to want it at first. He thought that his grandfather and the other man coming to help the Sky upgrade was already a waste of their time. He shouldn't take a penny of what was gained along the way. But he couldn't resist their tough attitude.

After dealing with the Howling Moon Silver Wolf Tribe, the three warships continued to visit the last two large tribes. After completely clearing out these two tribes, the success rate of the Sky's promotion had reached more than 65%.

Unfortunately, this is still not enough.

In the sky of the Blood Savage Continent, three warships were quietly suspended, waiting for the arrival of the transit warship from the other side of the vein.

According to the plan made previously, there is a transit warship in the meridian every five days. According to the time, a transit warship should arrive today.

While waiting, Song Mingsong said:

"65% is not enough. Anyway, it has only been less than 4 months since the battleship upgrade mission was launched. Xiaochi, don't be anxious. Follow up and see if your elders have any news about other level 80 star sea floating lands or level civilizations. The success rate must be at least % before you can try to upgrade!"

Song Chi nodded seriously, but he immediately refuted it in his heart.

"80%, Grandpa, you are still a little conservative. If it is less than 90%, or even above 95%, I will never officially promote your grandson."

Seeing Song Chi nod, Song Mingsong sighed softly:

"Unfortunately, the foundation of our tenth direct lineage is still too shallow. If it is really difficult to find news about other third-level floating lands or civilizations in the future, we can only ask other lines in the clan for help!"

If all this could be avoided, Song Mingsong would naturally not want to go this far, but there was no way. In a short period of time, it was not easy to find a suitable third-order floating land or third-level civilization.

If I have to owe someone a favor because of this, there is nothing I can do about it.

Song Chi has his own ideas about this.

Although the Blood Barbarian Continent has been cleared out, he still has the humanoid aliens on the asteroid belt. With that half-step fourth-order humanoid alien, it would not be easy to gather the second-order and third-order humanoid aliens.

There are quite a lot of alien races. After killing them all, the success rate of the Sky may be able to reach 90%.

The next day, the three of them took the transit warship back to the Dragon Ridge Continent. As soon as they returned, they heard good news. Second uncle Song Hai successfully discovered a level ③ life-type floating continent in the star sea during his last exploration of the alien star region.

According to Second Uncle, the dominant creature on this floating land in the star sea is a species with a human body and a dog head, which seems to be the dog-headed man recorded in the Encyclopedia of Star Sea Civilization.

However, the Black Sea only discovered this floating land in the starry sea during the last period of its return, so more information about this floating land has not yet been collected.

Song Chi and the other two showed great interest in this floating land in the star sea whose information was still unclear. No matter whether it was ogre or any other race, it should not be dangerous in front of the two warships, the Sky and the Furious Lion, which had fourth-level combat capabilities. After all, it was just a level ③ floating land in the star sea.

However, if one wants to go to this floating land, he will have to wait another month. Only when the alien domain deployment of the [Black Sea] is cooled down again, can he lead the rest of the tribe over and establish a transit link with this level ③ floating land.

Song Chi was not in a hurry. It had been less than four months since he started the promotion mission, so he still had plenty of time.
