National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 533: Quality Improvement of the Seed of Fire
"Lil, it's time to eat..."

A woman's voice was heard from the kitchen. Not long after, the door of the training room in the side yard opened, and a girl with her body covered with unknown training liquid walked out of the door.

Seeing this, the plump woman who poked her head out from the busy kitchen said hurriedly:
"Lier, did you just apply the body-hardening liquid? It's okay to wait a while. The quota of body-hardening liquid in the clan has always been tight. Your father exchanged these with merit points with great difficulty. You only have two years left before the awakening of the fire. You can't waste any opportunity to improve the level of the guidance technique!"

The girl, with red cheeks, who had not yet recovered from the aftereffects of a morning of practicing the Daoyin technique, shook her head.

"It's okay, mom. The medicine has just been absorbed. I'll go wash up!"

Ten minutes later, the mother and daughter sat down at the dining table. Before they started eating, the girl seemed to have thought of something and asked:

"Mom, where's my brother?"

When the woman heard her precious daughter ask this, she rolled her eyes.

"Besides hiding in the battleship summoning room to practice the guidance technique, where else can I do it?"

As she spoke, she quickly waved her hand and pretended to be impatient:
"We don't care about him. Your brother is now the captain of the escort ship. It's normal for him not to eat for a few months. You should eat more..."

Click!

Before the woman finished speaking, there was a sudden noise from the other side of the hall. The two turned around and saw a shirtless, square-faced man walking out of the entrance of the underground battleship summoning room.

The man's name was Song Liang, and he was the girl's brother and the son of the plump woman.

The moment she saw Song Liang, the woman's face showed obvious joy. Although she was ruthless in her words, there was no mother who didn't like her son. She said hurriedly:

"Xiaoliang, come here quickly, mom just made your favorite dish..."

But before the woman could finish, Song Liang spoke first:
"Mom, have you cooked the fire carp soup?"

As soon as the woman heard the words 'Fire Carp Soup', she seemed to understand something instantly. She stood up hurriedly, her eyes full of surprise.

"Xiaoliang, what about the seed of fire?"

Although she looks like a housewife now, she is almost 150 years old. She was promoted to escort captain a few years ago and has a lot of experience.

As she asked, without waiting for Song Liang to answer, she quickly ran back to the kitchen and opened the cupboard.

In the corner of the cabinet, there was surprisingly a closed light curtain formed by psionic energy. When the woman dispelled the psionic energy, a bowl of fish soup that was still emitting heat and fragrance appeared inside.

Taking the fish soup, Song Liang drank it in one gulp, and then sat down cross-legged on the spot.

On one side, the woman's face showed complicated emotions, sometimes expectant, sometimes happy, and sometimes worried.

At this time Song Li also came over.

"Mom, what's going on, brother?"

The woman suppressed her confused thoughts and explained softly:

"Didn't your grandfather know that it was hopeless to reach the third level, so he used all the contribution points he had accumulated for more than 200 years to exchange for your brother's new family special resource, the "Fire Carp"? After decades of continuous nourishment, your brother's white fire seed should be upgraded to blue!"

Hearing this, Song Li was also happy for her brother from the bottom of her heart. In this way, Song Liang's theoretical upper limit will rise to cruiser captain. For her who has not yet awakened, she will definitely receive greater help in the future.

The transformation of Song Liang's flame lasted for dozens of minutes. When Song Liang opened his eyes again and saw the fleeting blue flame in his eyes, Song Li and her daughter on the side were filled with surprise.

"Mom, Xiaoli, I still have to go back to the battleship summoning room to strengthen the battleship components. You don't have to wait for me."

"Do you have enough floating land origin in your hand?"

"enough!"

When Song Liang disappeared again at the entrance of the battleship summoning room, the joy on the woman's face remained for a long time. However, after being happy, she turned to her daughter beside her and sternly advised:
"Lier, the family is now in a period of rapid development. The ancestors and family heads are not stingy in training the young people below. Tempering Fluid, Blood Bodhi, Floating Land Origin, Fire Carp, these are rare resources that people in the outside world would fight for. As long as you make contributions and merits, you can exchange them. This is the blessing of your generation, so you must not slack off."

"If your grandfather's generation had had this kind of environment, perhaps he would have been a cruiser captain by now, not far from being a Zhulu captain. Don't let me, your father, and the whole family down!"

"Mom, my daughter understands!"

……

On the Jiesong Floating Land, a hundred-meter-long frigate rose into the sky and quickly disappeared into the sky of the floating land.

In the battleship's main control room, Song Liang activated the jump device without hesitation.

More than a hundred light years away, at the edge of the Jiesong star region, the Chenliang, which had just broken away from the jump state, was speeding all the way.

In the battleship's main control room, Song Liang's eyes were filled with excitement that was difficult to conceal.

"With the help of my father and grandfather, the foundation of the [Chen Liang], which has been promoted to a frigate for nearly 50 years, has been consolidated. Now that the seed of the flame has been promoted to blue, it only needs another ten thousand year old volcanic lava iron mother, and the [Chen Liang] will be able to try to start the battleship promotion mission.

Once I succeed in getting promoted, I will be a cruiser captain in my early eighties, which means I am in the upper middle class among my clan. It is not impossible for me to become a captain of Zhulu in the future!"

When he thought of this, Song Liang could hardly suppress the excitement in his heart. Captain Zhulu was an existence capable of suppressing a low-level floating land and watching the changes in the starry sea for two thousand years. He could be considered a middle to high level in any force.

My thoughts were racing when suddenly a burst of intensive artillery fire came from the front.

The intense energy flames illuminated the dark starry sky ahead.

This sudden change made Song Liang's heart tremble, but fortunately his father and grandfather had high hopes for him since he was a child. Through their words and deeds, Song Liang was not the kind of greenhouse flower who would panic when encountering problems.

He calmed down as quickly as possible and slowed down the speed of the ship. Thanks to the blue [Void Membrane] component that had just been strengthened to the third level, the [Chen Liang] was not discovered, which allowed Song Liang to observe the specific situation ahead with confidence.

"It's the 14th Squadron of the First Dragon Whale Guard Fleet under my father's command. There seems to be a fleet of the Morning Star Family as well. They are the Purple Butterfly Clan. Are they jointly pursuing the Purple Butterfly Clan?"

After carefully observing the situation on the battlefield, Song Liang figured out some basic circumstances, but he was still a little confused.

Although the Jiesong Star Region borders the Morning Star Family's star region to the east, and it is indeed a jointly managed star region designated by both parties, over the past hundreds of years, their own fleet has never cooperated with the Morning Star Family. What exactly is the reason that makes both parties act together this time?
Confused, he looked at a special disc on the side.

This disc is not a shipborne component, but a sub-communication disc of a communication component. As for the main body, it is naturally his father, the captain of the third-level cruiser.

Decades ago, the family had been making every effort to purchase communication components from outside, and after several decades, it had achieved initial results. At least most of the family's cruisers and captains were equipped with such components, and Song Liang's father was one of them.

After hesitating for a moment, he activated the component.

After a short wait, a ray of light appeared on the CD, and soon a communication frame appeared on it.

"Xiaoliang? Why are you here? Where are you now? Remember not to get close to the border area." The communication component on Song Liang's father's ship was not of high quality, and the farthest communication distance was only ten light years. Now that Song Liang had successfully activated the communication, he guessed at the first time that his son had come to the squadron's base.

"Dad, I'm fine. My Fire Seed has been successfully upgraded, and the [Void Membrane] has been strengthened to the third level. The Purple Butterfly Clan has not discovered the [Chen Liang]."

"Don't talk about me for now, Dad. What is going on? Why are they working together with the Morning Star Family? Could it be that the Purple Butterfly Family has a high-level Star Sea artifact?"

The sub-disk would not last long after being activated, so Song Liang did not waste time and continued to ask questions.

"What alliance? The Morning Star Family got the news from somewhere that the Purple Butterfly Family has a purple flash escape component that can "increase the teleportation distance fourfold". They want to snatch this component from us!"

"The transmission distance has been increased fourfold. Isn't this the component that Chi Zu released and that he is looking for at a high price?"

After knowing that the Morning Star Family had ill intentions, Song Liang's eyes instantly turned cold.

He knew very well that once the other party got the special escape component, they would use it to raise the price. If Chi Zu wanted to get it then, he would have to bleed heavily.

"Father, do you know which Purple Butterfly Clan member has that special evasion component?"

……

After some communication between father and son, Song Liang quickly identified the target among the fleeing purple butterflies in front.

"Got you!"

As he silently chanted in his mind, another message came from the CD communication box in front of him.

“Xiaoliang, don’t act on your own. Although the Purple Butterfly Clan is only a low-level civilization, there are still a few remaining third-level Purple Butterflies. In addition, the Morning Star Clan has also sent out a number of dark ships to search. Your ship is only a second-level one…”

Obviously, Song Liang's father did not want his son to act rashly, but before he could finish his words, the duration of the communication sub-disk had ended.

Song Liang withdrew his gaze and looked back at the starry sky ahead, or more specifically, at a third-level purple butterfly on the battlefield ahead.

He did not follow his father's instructions and had already locked onto the third-level purple butterfly that was suspected to be carrying the special escape component.

His idea was simple. His intention to ask for reward from the "youngest" fifth-level ancestor of the family was secondary. His main purpose was to repay the favor.

It's not just him. Most of the young brothers in the Longjing Song family have this mentality.

As for the reason?

Body quenching liquid, body quenching paste, fire carp... These rare resources are all related to Song Chi. Without the Song Chi family, it would be impossible to produce these resources in a stable manner.

This means that all the younger generation of the family who have used these resources need to be grateful to him.

Hidden in the void, Song Liang did not rush to take action.

Although he had made the decision to take action, Song Liang would certainly not be stupid enough to openly target a third-level Purple Butterfly among the fleeing group of Purple Butterflies.

He has his own judgment.

"Under the combined attack of the two fleets, it is only a matter of time before the Purple Butterfly Clan is wiped out. As a third-level Purple Butterfly Clan member, they will definitely try every possible way to escape. In this case, it is impossible for them to be with the main force, as they are too big a target. As long as they are separated from the main force, it is time for me to take action!"

After waiting patiently, several hours passed.

Finally, Song Liang, who had been staring at the battlefield for several hours, raised the corner of his mouth, and the engine of the "Chenliang" hidden in the void was started, and it rushed towards a remote star field on the side.

Just now, the third-level purple butterfly finally couldn't bear it anymore, activated the magical item in his hand that had the ability to escape, and quietly left the fleeing team.

He was very cautious and chose the right time to escape. If Song Liang had not been keeping an eye on him, it would have been difficult to notice the disappearance of such a Purple Butterfly in the team.

With the dual support of his grandfather and father, the configuration of Song Liang's ship [Chen Liang] is not weak. Even though it is just a frigate, it is already equipped with three purple components.

Among these three purple parts, the engine is one of them.

The purple engine that has been upgraded to the third level naturally provides a good speed for the warship. Even though the third-level purple butterfly clan escaped a long distance with the magic item in their hands, they were still successfully caught up by the [Chenliang] after dozens of minutes.

Boom boom!

After charging, the blue main gun on the [Chenliang] suddenly exploded.

As the attack was triggered, [Chenliang] naturally appeared from the void.

The moment they sensed that a warship was catching up with them, the third-level purple butterfly tribe was filled with fear. However, when they discovered that the [Chenliang] was only a second-level battleship, the fear in their hearts instantly turned into surprise.

The body with a wingspan of one kilometer suddenly turned, and countless tiny eyeballs in its scarlet compound eyes continued to move, giving people a creepy feeling at first glance.

[Vine Binding Seal] "Star Vine Binding"!
Song Liang reacted quickly and activated a control component on the battleship that had been upgraded to the third level.

I saw many thick black vines shooting out from the [Chenliang] and quickly hit the third-level purple butterfly clan that was rushing towards it.

Bound by the black vine, the third-level purple butterfly clan member paused. Seeing this, Song Liang directly activated the attack component.

However, this time it was not the battleship's main gun, but a purple-quality external launcher under the battleship.

Two external nuclear bombs roared out and directly hit the body of the third-level purple butterfly before it could break free from its restraints.

Boom!

The violent energy shock wave continued to spread outward with the third-level purple butterfly clan as the center.

"How can it be!"

Song Liang's eyes narrowed, and he only felt a purple phantom flash before his eyes, and in an instant it was close to the [Chen Liang].

The sharp butterfly wings ignored the outer energy shield and cut fiercely on the hull of the [Chenliang].

However, fear appeared in the eyes of the third-level purple butterfly clan. Its full-strength cutting did not cause much damage to the small battleship a hundred meters in front of it.

Instead, it saw dozens of third-level terracotta warriors that appeared from nowhere and rushed over to attack the huge wound left by the nuclear bomb explosion.

It wanted to dodge, but at this time several vines shot out from the [Chenliang] again, making it unable to move at all.
