National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 572 Justice
[Dragon Whale Palace] is now a rare black object of the highest quality. If it is completely restored in the future, it will most likely be a colorful mythical quality object, which is extremely rare.

However, as one of the family heritages of the Longji Song family, the biggest shortcoming of the [Dragon Whale Palace] is that it cannot be converted into a shipborne component. Under this premise, in order to maximize its role, the Song family chose to integrate it with the entire Longji Continent, using the huge size of an entire floating land to activate this high-level wonder.

Of course, it's not just the Song family, or even just the Xinhuo human civilization. Many civilized races in the entire Broken Star Sea do this.

However, this method is not without its drawbacks. Once a rare object is highly integrated with a certain continent, it will be difficult to separate the rare object in the future. The effect of the rare object itself is also closely related to the floating land of the star sea itself.

Just like the black-quality Dragon Whale Palace, with the blessing of the previous sixth-level Dragon Spine Continent, it could only condense one hundred [Spiritual Palaces] and one hundred [Starry Sky Thrones], and there were also significant restrictions on the comprehension of the laws and the upper limit of the chaos fog.

Not long ago, after the Dragon Ridge Continent was promoted to Level 7, the number of places in the [Soul Hall] and [Starry Sky Throne] skyrocketed to 500, and the distance that could be used for cross-starry sky projection and summoning was also greatly increased.

The reason why the Song family is still continuously extracting the origin cores of other floating lands to nourish the Dragon Ridge Continent is that the top leaders of the Song family are far from satisfied with this.

At least the top leaders of the Song family were very dissatisfied with the fact that the Dragon Ridge Continent was still unable to recall the projections of its clansmen in the Red Star Continent after it was promoted to the seventh level.

The seventh-level floating land combined with the black wonder can certainly unleash about 80% of the power of the [Dragon Whale Palace], but this is only the black-quality [Dragon Whale Palace] after the second repair. Once the third repair is completed, the [Dragon Whale Palace] will most likely be upgraded to the colorful mythical quality.

In this case, the size of the seventh-level floating land is far from enough.

After discussing the solution for the sixth-level floating land below, the Song family members looked at the hundreds of thousands of ordinary Zerg below.

There are still nearly thirty years before the civilization war officially begins, and how to arrange these hundreds of thousands of Zerg is also a problem.

It is definitely not possible to bring them back to Longji Continent directly. With hundreds of thousands of mouths to feed, if the Song family were to support all their consumption, it would definitely be a huge expense. Even with the current size of the Song family, it would be painful.

This problem can be solved by letting them all go into hibernation, but that would bring up another problem.

The subsequent civilization war will be a super-large-scale war between two river communities. It can be imagined that countless Xinhuo captains will lose their lives in this giant war, and a large number of Xinhuo forces will be destroyed in this war. This is inevitable.

In this bloody shuffling game, the Song family, which had just been promoted to an immortal family, had initially obtained a slight qualification to participate in the shuffling, but this was far from enough. Obtaining the qualification was only the first step. One's own physique was also a very critical link. Only in this way could the family persist until the end of the shuffling and get a glimpse of the brand new beginning with opportunities everywhere.

In the past few decades, the hidden veins have returned, the clan's heritage has been revealed, war supplies have been stockpiled and bought low and sold high...all of this is the Song family doing everything possible to strengthen itself.

Over the past few decades, the number of cruiser captains has exceeded 5,000, and the number of competing captains is gradually approaching 400. This shows that the family's efforts are beginning to show results.

But it's still not enough.

In the final analysis, the Song family's inheritance time is still too short. Compared with those immortal families, the Song family, which has used all its strength to strengthen itself in recent decades, has only changed from a tall and thin family at the beginning to a normal physique. There is still a huge gap between them and the burly and strong men of the immortal families.

Knowing this, the top leaders of the Song family had to find another way and try to arm themselves as much as possible from other aspects, and this group of Zerg was the most critical link among them.

However, 600,000 is far from enough. The Song family wants millions, so it is absolutely impossible to bring them back to the family. These Zerg must continue to collect various resources, so that after the injuries of the Medieval Queen are completely recovered, She can devour these resources and breed the Zerg again with all Her strength.

While they were discussing, several space fluctuations were heard from the sky, and three chasing ships emerged from the space vortex.

These three chasing warships are all from the "Development Department" of the Family War Hall. All of them are deputy minister-level figures and are very good at drawing star maps of new star fields.

As the communication was established, the three Zhulu ships each uploaded a star map.

After comparing the three star maps one by one, Song Chi and his companions had a general understanding of the surrounding star field of the sixth-level floating land under their feet.

With this sixth-level floating land as the center, there are two fourth-level floating lands within two thousand light years, and more than two hands can count the third-level floating lands. In addition, in the edge area nearly two thousand light years away, there is a huge asteroid belt that extends all the way out of the star map.

"That's fine. We can let the remaining Zerg go to these floating lands to collect various resources. With the output of these floating lands and the asteroid belt, when the Medieval Queen recovers, it will be enough to breed more than a million Zerg."

……

After agreeing on the follow-up plan, Song Shiyuan stayed on the sixth-level floating land, using the [Acalanatha] and the [Origin Core Stealing Instrument] to try his best to extract the remaining two origin cores from the floating land.

Song Chi and others took some of the Zerg and sent them to different floating lands in the surrounding areas, allowing them to concentrate on collecting resources in the next few decades.

……

Morning Star Yanglu, Holy Star City.

After a lapse of ten years, the Song Family Longji Shop once again held a new "Longji Auction".

Due to the extensive publicity several years in advance, there was a huge crowd of people in front of the auction house today. It was definitely a major event in the Morning Star Yanglu Public Open Area.

The reason for such a grand occasion is not only because the Longji branch stationed in Chenxing Yanglu has been creating a lot of hype in recent years with orange upgraded fire sources, large quantities of war materials, red shipborne parts, fifth-level biological source blood, etc., but also the fact that the Longji Song family was officially promoted to an immortal family is also a key reason.

"Is that the captain of the Gale Exploration Team? He was promoted to captain of the Zhulu several decades ago. I didn't expect him to be here too!"

"Look at this, the ancestor of the Morning Star Kingdom's Divine Wind Li family. This is a strong man at the level of the Ultimate Chaser Captain."

One after another, warships with amazing captains dropped from the sky. In just twenty minutes, more than twenty captains of the Zhulu appeared, and there were even more cruiser captains.

In the crowd, a captain of a scattered ship frowned and said:

"What's going on? Didn't the Longji Song family become an immortal family more than ten years ago? Their influence shouldn't be at its peak? Not to mention the Dreadnought Captain, why haven't we even seen a few Battleship Captains?"

"You know nothing. Morning Star Sun Land is only at the peak of level 5 now. It has long been ignored in the kingdom. This is just a medium-level auction under the jurisdiction of the Song family. If it were a top-level auction, would it be held in Morning Star Sun Land?"

“You don’t know, but my second aunt who married into the Eagle Family said that ten years ago, the Song Family held a grand auction on the Silver Plate Floating Land. It was said that even great beings like the Star Destroyer Captain attended the auction.

The finale of that auction was a drop of Overlord's Blood, which was sold for a golden sanctuary component."

"Golden Sanctuary Parts? Hiss!"

……

Amidst numerous discussions, the auction officially began.

As the first item, in order to liven up the atmosphere, the Song family auction house took out a drop of fifth-level Zerg blood.

The fifth-level source blood can greatly increase the success rate of the Chaser ship's attack on the battleship. If used by a cruiser when attacking the Chaser ship, it can increase the promotion success rate by more than 15%.

As expected, the enthusiasm of the Xinhuo captains in the entire auction hall was instantly ignited.

In a corner of the ordinary seats at the bottom of the auction hall, three men and women sat side by side.

As each item was sold, they never bid.

Until another item appeared.

I only heard the man on the left, who was emitting the aura of a third-level life force, exclaim:

"Captain, this is it. It's the Ice Apricot Fruit that person wants. If we can get it, we can exchange it for the Intermediate Thunder Crystal from him!"

In response to this, although the man in the middle was obviously much calmer, there was still a hint of excitement in his eyes.

[Ice Apricot Fruit], if a cruiser that is inclined towards the ice path can add one when attacking a chasing ship, it can increase the success rate of promotion by 5%.

However, this is obviously not suitable for his flagship. What he wants is the mid-level [Thunder Crystal].

In the Broken Star Sea, the Law of Ice is considered to be a rather unpopular one, which allowed the three of them to finally successfully obtain the [Ice Apricot Fruit].

After bidding for the ice apricot fruit, the three of them did not stay for long and went straight out of the auction.

Soon, three cruisers rose into the sky outside Holy Star City.

In a debris belt hundreds of light years away from Morning Star Sunland, after two jumps, three cruisers successfully arrived here.

After making sure there was no one around, the three cruisers quickly rushed into the debris belt.

Deep in the debris belt, when the three cruisers arrived, there was already a 1,100-meter cruiser waiting there.

"Did you get the stuff?"

In the connected communication group chat, the captain wearing a special mask spoke indifferently.

Hearing this, the team leader took out the [Ice Apricot Fruit].

"Yes, it's the [Ice Apricot Fruit], let's trade it!"

As he spoke, the captain with a special mask took the lead and threw a crystal stone flashing with lightning right in the middle of both sides.

When the captain also threw the [Ice Apricot Fruit] over, both sides activated the battleship's tractor beam at the same time.

Soon, the two special promotion resources were exchanged.

Before leaving, the masked captain did not forget to emphasize one sentence.

"Remember the agreement we signed before. Use this intermediate-level [Thunder Crystal] after you leave the Morning Star Kingdom. And regardless of whether you succeed in the subsequent promotion or not, the three of you are not allowed to return to the Morning Star Kingdom."

"rest assured!"……

Shortly after the three cruisers left, the jump charging of the 1,100-meter-long cruiser was also about to be completed.

But at this moment, a sharp whistle suddenly came from behind a large piece of debris on the side.

The blazing beams and deep space torpedoes exploded at the same time, and before the 1,100-meter cruiser could react, both hit its energy shield and internal hull one after another.

The energy shield was shaking violently, broken pieces of the ship's armor were scattered everywhere, and even the jump was interrupted.

"who!"

Inside the 1,100-meter-long cruiser, the masked captain emitted a voice of shock and anger.

Turning his eyes, he quickly saw the light blue cruiser appearing on the side.

His pupils shrank, as if he recognized the other party, but for some reason, he did not reveal the other party's identity, but just said coldly:

"Star pirates? They are quite rampant..."

Before he could finish his words, a sarcastic male voice came from the cruiser opposite.

"Song Lu, are you still pretending to be confused? Let me tell you quietly, I have put a tracking mark on your warship!"

"I have recorded the entire transaction just now. You are caught selling the family's rare minerals privately."

After saying this, without waiting for the other side to speak again, the cruiser that appeared later used the flash escape parts to leave the small debris belt.

"Song Xing!!"

In the 1,100-meter cruiser, the masked captain's eyes were extremely gloomy.

However, his warship was not equipped with any space-capable escape components, so it could only fly slowly toward the outside world. By the time he had completely left the debris belt, the cruiser that had already escaped had completed the jump charging.

Seeing the battleship in front completely disappear, the masked captain said coldly:

"Since you are determined to die, you can't blame me."

……

Morning Star Yanglu, Song family territory, Thunder Stone Mine.

As early as when the Song family had its first dreadnought captain, nearly a quarter of the land on the Morning Star Sun Continent was demarcated as belonging to the Song family.

Decades ago, the Song family, who were responsible for the management and development of this area, successfully discovered a large thunder stone vein. This discovery was a significant contribution to the family.

Large Thunder Stone veins can produce Thunder Crystals, which can serve as special promotion resources for Thunder-attributed Fire Battleships and are of considerable value.

At the Lei Shi Mine, accompanied by a space fluctuation, Song Xing's ship appeared above the mine.

As soon as he returned, Song Xing went straight to the mine guard hall.

……

Two months later, under the watchful eyes of the large number of slave creatures serving as miners in the mine, a fleet of the 6th Inspection Team under the Family Inspection Hall descended from the sky.

The captain of the inspection team was named Song Li, a third-rank cruiser captain. Behind his ship, there was another cruiser that did not belong to the inspection team.

Thunderstone mine, warship docking area.

The moment the members of the 6th Inspection Team walked out of the warship docking area, the mine manager who had been waiting outside came up to them with a smile.

"Captain Li, I finally got you. This..."

Before the smiling mineral manager could finish his words.

Song Li interrupted directly:
"Song Lu, right? Forget the polite words. We have other tasks on hand. Time is urgent. Let's get straight to the point!"

"According to the information you reported three days ago, Song Xing was killed on the spot for illegally intercepting the family's rare minerals. Is that correct?"

"Yes, stand in line!"

"Manager Song Lu, there are some things you can't just say. You have to be responsible!!!"

"My grandson followed the path of the Law of Light. What use would he have for this Thunder Stone? And according to what Xiaoxing said before, it was you who was plotting something at the mine!"

Just as Song Lu nodded, a pressure from the peak of the third level suddenly came from Song Li's side. An old man with a weathered face glared at Song Lu in front of him, his eyes full of bloodshot.

Song Xing was his most talented grandson. Not only did he possess the Purple Fire, he also comprehended the laws at the third level. There was a good chance that he would be promoted to the captain of Zhulu in the future. However, he died here inexplicably.

"Uncle Yufeng, you promised before you came!"

Song Li frowned and turned to look at Song Yufeng on the side.

After hearing Song Li speak, Song Yufeng finally restrained his breath, but the anger in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"In that case, is there any relevant evidence?"

"Of course!"

In the next two hours, Song Lu led the inspection team into the mine to check the so-called evidence, a second-level tribesman who also worked in the mine.

According to him, Song Xing often sneaked into the depths of the mine alone.

Song Li used the polygraph equipment unique to the inspection team, and the results showed that the other party was not lying.

After this incident, Song Yufeng obviously found it hard to accept. He could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and the life pressure of the peak of the third level was completely released by him.

Before this, Song Xing had mentioned to him many times that Song Lu had dirty hands.

He was almost certain that this matter could not be that simple.

"When did our Song family become so rotten? It's bad enough that you embezzled the family property, but how dare you kill people from the same family? If I don't..."

His voice was extremely cold, and his bloodshot eyes stared at Song Lu.

But before he could finish his angry words, a powerful pressure suddenly came from the mine guard hall in the distance. This pressure was ten or a hundred times stronger than the third-level peak aura of Song Yufeng.

The next second, a figure flew out from the guard hall.

"Greetings, elder of the Zhihao clan!"

Looking up at the middle-aged man standing in the air, Song Li slowly stepped to the right, standing in front of Song Yufeng and slightly sharing some of the pressure.

Behind him, Song Yufeng had blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. The fourth-level oppression was acting on him. Even though he had the physique given by the third-level peak guiding technique, he still couldn't bear it.

It was as if a mountain had fallen on his shoulders, pressing down on him so hard that his entire body crackled and his bones inside his body burst.

It was not until this moment that the elder of the Zhihao clan standing high in the sky said indifferently:
"I killed Song Xing with my own hands. According to what you said, I wronged him?"

Above, a man with an indifferent expression was high up in the sky.

Below, blood was still flowing out of Song Yufeng's mouth, and the pressure he was under did not decrease at all.

It was not until Song Li on the side took the initiative to share half of the pressure with him that he had a chance to breathe.

"Elder Zhihao, Uncle Yufeng just lost his grandson after all, so it's understandable that he spoke too passionately, but you're going too far!"

As he finished speaking, Song Zhihao in the sky narrowed his eyes slightly, and for a moment the atmosphere in the entire mine became more solemn.

However, after a few seconds of silence, Song Zhihao withdrew the breath in his body, and his voice rang out again.

"Okay, now that the evidence is solid, you should go back and report as soon as possible. Don't delay any longer in the mine."

After saying this, dark energy surged throughout his body, and he prepared to leave on his own.

Unexpectedly, Song Yufeng behind Song Li spoke again with difficulty:
"A rat has appeared in our clan, trying to cover the sky with one hand. The Song clan members beg the ancestor to uphold justice!!"
