"What?"

Jiang Yan turned around tremblingly and asked.

The old admiral said: "The extermination of the deep-sea habitat of Lisli will be rewarded with 100,000 units of heavy oil, and as long as you pay one-fifth of the mortgage of this reward, you can accept it." ”

"Why?"

"Because the Imperial fleet has already planned to go to the deep-sea habitat of Lisli in half a year to exterminate it. ”

“・・・”

The Imperial Navy can't be vacated at the moment~

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment and asked, "Can you show me the chart?"

"Take it. ”

The old admiral was very simple this time, pulled out a scroll, and said: "This should have been a month ago, the Imperial Combined Fleet conducted a demonstration of sinking a deep-sea habitat in the sea area, and then went to destroy the newborn deep-sea habitat, but it was delayed by the unexpected situation and the matter of the Purlido deep-sea habitat, and now it has been pushed back half a year. ”

Jiang Yan unfolded the chart and measured it for a while, recognizing the channel in it, "Is it the deep-sea habitat that failed to lure the enemy?"

"Yes, this is also for the sake of you saving the three destroyers of the Empire. The old admiral said, "Of the three ships, one of them is my grandson's mother." ”

"I see. Jiang Yan leaned over and asked sincerely, "Sir, I want to ask a question." ”

"Say it. ”

"How does this Lisli deep-sea habitat compare to the danger of the Pumlidor deep-sea habitat?"

"You're shrewd. The old admiral smiled, "According to my personal judgment, if you judge by the Empire's destroyer level, the former is G-class, and the latter is E+-class. ”

"E+ grade, is there an upper limit?" Jiang Yan asked.

"No, maybe it's G, or maybe it's a five-star rating that has never been judged on a freshborn habitat - H. The old admiral said, "After all, the reconnaissance is not finished. ”

Jiang Yan glared, "Put it up before you finish the reconnaissance?"

"Do you think it will be so easy to get enough merit to be recorded in the annals of the Empire? Every Admiral who takes on a mission does so at great risk. ”

"What kind of merit do ghosts want, what I lack is resources. Jiang Yan sneered, and then said, "I took the task." ”

"Only half a year, are you sure?" said the old admiral, looking at the charts and having the courage to accept this imperial mission were two different things.

And in half a year, even if one of the top ten families of the empire pours out of the port, it may not be completed.

When the time comes, the Imperial fleet will go according to the itinerary and destroy the deep-sea habitat, and this young man will not have any reward, and the 20,000 resources mortgaged will also be lost.

Jiang Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Sure." ”

"The 20,000 yuan of resources mortgaged, I will send someone to send it tomorrow. ”

"In that case, you can take this chart with you, and when the sea and sky of the deep sea habitat of Lisli are clear again, you can come back and hand in the mission, good luck. The old admiral said.

"Thank you. ”

Jiang Yan waved his hand and left with Rodney.

When the old admiral waited for Jiang Yan's figure to disappear from the staircase, he stood up behind the counter and walked quickly towards the stairs to the third floor.

"This kid from the Jiang family has accepted the task of extermination, and he has to report it to Her Majesty immediately, otherwise if there is any damage, I won't be able to eat and go. ”

・・・

The number of fleets sent by the empire is limited, and in order to ensure the crushing of strength and reduce the casualties of the admiral and the ship's mother, it cannot be branched into too many fleets.

At this time, it is necessary to use the power of the Admirals of the Maison, and the Empire will pay them to help clear the nascent deep-sea habitat or complete other tasks.

Among the rewards paid by the empire, many family admirals value nothing more than the glory given by the empire - meritorious service.

Someone like Jiang Yan who went for the reward of resources was unique in the history of the Yaslan Empire, and of course, others didn't know about it.

Back at the Jiang family's mansion, Jiang Yan took out all the stored soul beads, let Rodney wait at home, and left alone.

It wasn't until late in the evening that I came back again.

"Lao Luo, bring the resource nameplate over to the old gentleman of the Hall of Merit tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes. ”

"Fantasy and Fireflies are ready to go out after dinner and take a trip to the Neutral Sea. ”

"Yes, Admiral. ”

"Young Master, are you going too, if that's the case, please take me with you. ”

"Just let the fantasy and the fireflies go, not to fight, just to find an island. ”

・・・

In the underground port, the fireflies finished loading the ship first, and ten minutes later, the magic array shrouded in fantasy also disappeared.

Jiang Yan unfolded the chart on the ground, pointed to one of the routes, and said, "Fantasy, this is the route we have come back for the first time, do you still remember?"

Fantasy nodded: "Of course I do." ”

Jiang Yan drew a circle on the chart, "Start from the port, go to the place where I salvaged you, and then look for an island within a thousand nautical miles of the sea nearby, the island area is not too large, equivalent to one-third of the underground port." ”

"Leave it to me. Fantasy patted his flat chest and said.

"It's the same with fireflies, don't separate the two of you, just look for it together, give you five days, save heavy fuel, and only when you encounter the deep-sea habitat ship and the rest of the Admiral's fleet, you can sail at full speed. ”

The fireflies put their feet together, raised their small hands holding magic wands, and saluted, "Remember." ”

"Go ahead. ”

Jiang Yan watched the two shipwives leave, returned to the study, unfolded the chart, copied a new one, held a pencil in his hand, thought from time to time, and then made a mark on the new chart.

Rodney knocked lightly on the door, pushed it open and walked in, standing quietly aside.

After a long time, Jiang Yan put down the pencil and asked, "Don't you worry about them?"

"Young Master, is there really no problem with Little Fantasy and Firefly going on their own for the first time?" Rodney worried.

"It's better to let them go out independently as soon as possible, and the experience of rising is better. Jiang Yan said with a solemn face: "What's more, this time I just went out to look for the island, and when I really started to attack the deep-sea habitat of Lisli, such a situation was even more inevitable." ”

Rodney hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Young Master, Rodney doesn't understand, why did he take on the task of exterminating the deep-sea habitat? We haven't formed a fleet yet, we can take it step by step, and it is only a matter of time before we can gather enough resources for the destroyer soul transformation core." ”

Jiang Yan shook his head and asked instead, "Old Luo, what day will you count in half a year?"

"Yes..." Rodney frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "The founding day of the Yaslan Empire?"

"Yes. Jiang Yan nodded, and asked again: "On the founding day, in addition to the general celebration measures, the empire also has an important event. ”

Rodney came to his senses and said, "Young Master, you're talking about the Imperial Rotation Exercise!"

Jiang Yan clenched his fists and said: "The Jiang family, I haven't participated in this exercise for more than a hundred years, and even the invitations from previous years have all been rejected by me, and if this continues, the civilians and admirals of the empire, I'm afraid that even the Jiang family's family crest will be forgotten." ”

"Since the results of the research of my great-grandfather and father have been inherited by me, I cannot continue to make the Jiang family's family crest dusty. ”

Jiang Yan said, "This expedition to the deep-sea habitat will become an opportunity for the formation of the Jiang family's fleet, and on the day of the exercise, I will sweep through all the fleets of the empire." ”

"Lao Luo, do you have confidence?"

"Hmm. ”

Rodney nodded heavily, a look of relief in his glittering eyes.

It turned out that the young master accepted the imperial mission because of this.

In this way, whether or not the deep-sea habitat of Lisli can be eradicated in half a year is already secondary, and accepting the task only represents the young master's determination.

In this mission, the purpose is to let the Dejiang family's fleet take shape and gain rich combat experience.
