Chapter 238: The Heaven-Defying Silver Legendary Component
Chapter 238: The Heaven-Defying Silver Legendary Component
Song Chi had said a lot, but the only words echoing in Song Ming Song's mind were two.
Silver!
"Silver, Xiao Chi, you..."
Almost instinctively, Song Ming Song was about to press further.
But the old man's reaction wasn't slow either. He immediately regained his composure and forcefully stopped himself from saying more.
He just stared intently at his grandson, his eyes revealing a different kind of expression. Although he knew that Song Chi had experienced significant fortune, he had never thought it would be on the level of a silver legendary component, not even a red epic one. Before this, he had always assumed that Song Chi's warship would have many purple components and perhaps a couple of orange ones.
Now, to suddenly hear about a silver legendary component, frankly, it felt less like a pleasant surprise and more like a shock.
A silver legendary component, at this level, even a Fifth-Rank Flame Heart Captain, a lord of a Fifth-Rank Star Domain, would rarely have one on their warship. If they did, their warship would undoubtedly be considered the pinnacle among battleships.
What level of strength did Song Chi have?
"Good grief, my grandson's fortune must be something that only comes once in ten thousand years..."
After a brief moment of reflection, Song Ming Song cleared his throat a few times and then refocused on the main topic.
"Xiao Chi, according to what you just said, this [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] component must be surrendered to the family..."
As he spoke, Song Ming Song scanned his grandson's expression. Seeing that Song Chi remained unperturbed, his heart rate quickened.
From just this glance, he could infer that Song Chi's warship likely had other components of extremely high quality, perhaps not as high as the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring], but most likely red. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so calm.
Recollecting his thoughts, Song Ming Song continued:
"There's no other meaning, Grandfather just wants to say that this component can only maximize its potential within the family, and the family will not treat you unfairly. At the very least, they will return a component of equal quality and suitability..."
Hearing this, Song Chi asked proactively.
"Does the family have many silver components?"
The Song Clan had a nearly three-thousand-year legacy, so Song Chi wasn't surprised that the family had silver legendary components. However, if they could easily provide him with a suitable silver component, he was somewhat skeptical.
He controlled the Multiverse Market and had not even glimpsed a silver artifact throughout his journey. It was only in the wreckage of a warship belonging to a member of a dominant civilization's royal family that he first saw and acquired a silver legendary artifact. This alone was enough to show how rare such artifacts were.
In response to his question, Song Ming Song turned to glance at him.
"The Song Clan has been around for nearly three thousand years, and it's not just you who has had fortune... Do you know how our Song Clan rose to prominence? Where did the Dragon Spine Tyrant Whale in the Dragon Spine Tyrant Whale-Mythical Mecha Visualization come from?"
Hearing this, Song Chi's interest was immediately piqued. However, just as he was eagerly awaiting the next part, Song Ming Song's tone suddenly changed.
"Never mind, you'll know when you become a clan sequence member or advance to the Third Rank. For now, let's not delve into it. Additionally, Grandfather understands your concerns, but there's no need to worry about this."
"Over the past two thousand years, there have been clan members who have surrendered red or silver-quality artifacts or components. The clan's higher-ups have never pressed for more information or engaged in forced takings. Our Song Clan's ancestors are still around, and even if there are those with ill intentions, they wouldn't dare to act so openly."
Hearing this, Song Chi nodded thoughtfully, preparing to speak, but his grandfather preempted him.
"Of course, while that's true, we should still take precautions. Let's not rush the surrender. We'll see how the Roaring Lion Ship fares. If it successfully advances to the Fourth Rank, Grandfather will then be part of the clan's higher ranks. At that time, we can surrender the component without any issues."
Song Chi nodded, understanding his grandfather's point. Once the Roaring Lion Ship advanced to the Fourth Rank, with his current age of just over two hundred, advancing to the Fourth Rank in the Guiding Technique and becoming a true Fourth-Rank Flame Heart Captain would be a matter of time. Joining the Elders' Council would also be inevitable.
This way, if any unexpected issues arose when Song Chi surrendered the silver legendary component, he would have the confidence to oppose it, and at the very least, he could relay the message to the clan's ancestors, making it much safer.
After discussing this, the two pushed open another stone door.
This door led not to the Dragon Blood Realm but to a new underground secret room opened by the pulse elders in the past two years. This room was much larger than the other two, capable of summoning two cruisers simultaneously, and was specifically designed as a hidden warship summoning chamber.
Song Ming Song's brow glowed, and the Roaring Lion Cruiser was summoned.
"Come, let's see if the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] can be used on external warships."
Song Chi nodded in agreement and summoned the Cobalt Number, then boarded the warship and quickly activated the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] component.
Not just Song Chi, but Song Ming Song in the Roaring Lion Cruiser was even more anxious. Whether the component could be used on external warships was extremely important, affecting the return Song Chi would receive after surrendering the component to the family.
If it couldn't be used on external warships, it would be at most a somewhat special silver component, requiring repeated unloading and only capable of reinforcing components up to the Third Rank, with the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] capable of solidifying up to six components at once. This wouldn't be worthy of the title "clan treasure."
However, if it could be used on external warships, the clan would certainly reinforce it to the Sixth Rank or even higher. In that case, a [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] capable of solidifying over ten components and possibly solidifying twice would have a value incomparable to its current state.
If surrendered to the clan, not only would Song Chi receive a component of equal quality, but he might also receive an additional high-quality orange ascending fire source.
Thinking of this, Song Ming Song subconsciously held his breath.
Under the watchful eyes of both grandfather and grandson, the five beams of light emitted by the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] component split into two.
One beam remained inside the Cobalt Number, finally landing on the [dark matter energy shield generator] in the energy shield slot.
The other four beams shot out of the Cobalt Number, entering the Roaring Lion Cruiser on the side, landing on the energy shield, main cannon, engine, and spatial radar according to Song Chi's will.
"Success, it can be used on external warships, hahaha..."
A hearty laugh from Song Ming Song echoed in the Roaring Lion Cruiser, and Song Chi in the Cobalt Number also smiled. With this, the value of the [Three-Eyed Spirit Ring] reached the highest level they had discussed.
After recovering, Song Chi quickly unloaded the [dark matter energy shield generator] component.
On the Roaring Lion Cruiser, Song Ming Song also removed a similarly reinforced purple energy shield component. As for the main cannon, engine, and radar, these were just three components Song Chi had chosen at random. Although they were also solidified, Song Ming Song did not tamper with them, as they had no replacements.
When Song Chi delivered the dark matter energy shield generator component, Song Ming Song hurriedly installed this high-quality, still level 40 reinforced title energy shield.
As for the Fourth-Rank purple energy shield in his hand, he had already arranged a clan member to take it over beforehand.
The other party was already on the way to the Blue Moon Estate, and the cost of taking it over, after discussion between Song Chi and Song Ming Song, would exempt all Zero Rank, First Rank, and Second Rank Floating Continent Essence. However, the titanium crystals, Third-Rank, and Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, including law stones, must not be spared.
In the Cobalt Number, Song Chi was also waiting for the other party's arrival. At the moment, he was penniless, and the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield component he just installed was only reinforced to level 20.
There was no choice; he didn't have enough titanium crystals, Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence, or Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, making it impossible to reinforce it further.
Soon, Grandfather received the news. After a trip out, he returned with 1 strand of Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, 1 law stone, hundreds of strands of Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence, and 330 titanium crystals.
With these resources, Song Chi directly reinforced the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield to level 32, but then ran out of titanium crystals.
Previously, to reinforce the Proportional Scaling Device, the titanium crystals he had were almost depleted, and this silver energy shield required a massive 4 titanium crystals just to go from level 20 to level 21, making it a huge consumer of titanium crystals.
Hearing Song Chi's words, Song Ming Song didn't think twice and said, "Go and get some from your grandmother; she has been busy practicing the Guiding Technique for nearly a year and hasn't used much of the titanium crystals she received last time."
Song Chi hesitated for a moment, then patted his forehead and said helplessly, "Grandfather, I don't have enough Third-Rank or Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence either."
Song Ming Song's expression remained unchanged. "That's easy. Grandfather and your Uncle have visited many Third-Rank Civilization Starfields and have obtained a considerable amount of Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence, even though we didn't get any Fourth-Rank."
Saying this, the old man directly threw a large bundle of Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence to Song Chi. Song Chi counted it and was slightly startled; this bundle contained a thousand strands of Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence.
Before he could think more, Song Ming Song handed him another small bundle of radiance. "This is 5 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, obtained by your grandmother from suppressing the essence eruption eye over the past year. Take it and use it first."
Song Chi wanted to say something but saw Song Ming Song's eyes narrow. "Take it, with this Fourth-Rank orange shield, the Roaring Lion Ship can explore the Fourth-Rank Civilization Starfield or the Fourth-Rank Floating Continent that the family is still conquering. The success rate of promotion should increase significantly in two months. Don't worry about the rest, just focus on preparing for the sequence competition. If you can be selected into the family's Seventh Sequence, our lineage will benefit, and for you personally, once you become a family sequence, you will benefit greatly for the next hundred years."
Having said that, Song Chi naturally didn't argue further. He ran to the courtyard where his uncle and aunt lived, got hundreds of titanium crystals from his grandmother, and then returned to the underground warship summoning room to continue reinforcing.
Soon, using hundreds of strands of Third-Rank Floating Continent Essence, 4 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, 1 law stone, and 618 titanium crystals, he successfully reinforced the Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield component to level 40.
Immortal Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield Level 40
Quality: Silver
Characteristics: Five Elements Rotation · Mutual Generation and Overcoming
Characteristic 2: Shield Value Increased by 190%
Characteristic 3: Defense Value Increased by 180%
Defense: 9,660,000
Shield Value: 420,000,000 / 420,000,000
Recharge: 10s; Overload Buffer: 30 minutes
Upgrade Required: 6 strands of Fourth-Rank Floating Continent Essence, 160,000 energy points, 10 tons each of Five Elements minerals
{Five Elements Rotation · Mutual Generation and Overcoming: Possessing Five Elements power, when the energy shield is attacked by external Five Elements energy, the power will automatically weaken by 50%}
With the component officially reinforced to level 40, Song Chi checked its specific attribute changes, delighted by the significant increase in attributes. He then carefully calculated the effect of combining it with the Central Star Nuclear-Pulse.
Soon, he received a specific reply, showing that the recovery rate was a staggering 840,420 points per second. In comparison, the same level dark matter energy shield generator had a recovery rate of only 262,200 points per second, more than three times less.
With this, plus the "True Defense" characteristic of the silver energy shield itself, the Cobalt Number could now be truly considered to have a thick turtle shell.
The term "turtle shell" might not sound good, but for Song Chi, it brought only joy, as it meant that his future exploration of the unknown star sea would be much safer, which was what he had always pursued.
However, with the silver energy shield reinforced to level 40, its energy consumption was much higher than the previous orange dark matter energy shield generator, leading to the orange light energy polymer engine on the Cobalt Number being insufficient again.
Song Chi had already made up his mind about this.
First, he discussed with his grandfather his plan to transplant all 11 rare plants from the Dragon Blood Realm into his own secret realm.
To avoid upsetting his grandfather, Song Chi didn't specify the quality of the Chikura's 004 Cultivation Secret Realm component, only explaining that the secret realm bound to his warship had the characteristics of accelerating plant growth and increasing the success rate of transplantation.
Song Ming Song didn't think much about it and agreed directly. "Alright, once the Dragon Blood Realm accelerates, transplant the Spirit Quenching Tree and the Dragon Blood Fruit Tree, and take Grandfather's Immortal Realm Fertile Soil. Combined with your secret realm's characteristics, the effect will be even more impressive."
Song Chi, who had already had this idea, naturally didn't refuse. After nodding repeatedly, he piloted the Cobalt Number straight into the sky, heading to the family achievement tower.
The light energy polymer engine component was currently insufficient, and Song Chi's solution was simple: continue reinforcing its level.
As for replacing it with a new red quality engine?
No, Song Chi had no such intention.
It's not that replacing it with a red quality ship engine is unnecessary; Song Chi meant that it was unnecessary to replace the light energy polymer engine.
