Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Allocation
Trading goods for goods, and bolstered by the support of Fenglong City, they still netted a significant amount of rare metals through exchanges. Specifically, they exchanged for resources that were in short supply in the Douluo Federation and Shrek Academy. They had quite a substantial harvest.
This was even when Lan Xuanyu’s attention was not focused in this area.
Aside from these two major components, there was another, most precious part—those were the bodies of the Dragon Clan they had hunted. These things were truly valuable treasures!
Tree Elder spoke in a deep voice, “All the data can be handed over to the Federation. The Federation gaining this data will naturally make it public to the Academy as well. As for the mineral resources, I think splitting them equally would be fair. You also need to accrue merits within the Federation. This way, our report to the Federation will be sufficient, especially regarding those data. But as for the heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can be consumed, it’s better to take them back to the Academy. It’s not that I’m unwilling to give them to the Federation, but I’m worried that if someone with intent discovers these materials, which don’t originate from within the Federation, it may raise suspicions about their origins. Once leaked, it could pose a threat to your identities. If kept at the Academy, the Academy will naturally handle them cautiously. As for the bodies of the Dragon Clan, I also suggest not giving them to the Federation, but rather to let our Academy handle them secretly in the manufacturing of Ecological Warships. It’s also for the sake of covering your identities.”
“Okay, I have no objections. Just as you said,” Lan Xuanyu responded cheerfully.
Tree Elder suddenly sighed.
Lan Xuanyu gave him an inquiring look.
Tree Elder looked at him with a complex expression and said, “Xuanyu, our gains this time are indeed bountiful. But at the same time, haven’t you noticed? With such a resource as Sky Dragon Planet, even the Academy has nothing tangible to reward you with. The resources of the Inner Court are good, but compared to the cultivation resources you can get on Sky Dragon Planet, it really is nothing. You should be mentally prepared for this.”
Lan Xuanyu blinked and said, “No, Tree Elder, it’s not like that. First of all, everything I’ve done and obtained on Sky Dragon Planet was as an infiltrator. To me, the Academy is my home. So, even if I can’t obtain suitable cultivation resources from the Academy, that’s okay. Also, you’re mistaken about one thing, the Academy does have rewards that I really like, although those rewards are in the Tang Sect.”
Tree Elder was puzzled and asked, “What rewards can still interest you?”
Tree Elder was aware of the matters concerning Dragon Marrow and Dragon Crystal. He didn’t think there was anything better than those.
Lan Xuanyu chuckled softly and said in a low voice, “The Forbidden Arsenal of Tang Sect!”
Tree Elder’s expression stiffened, “I must tell you, both the Academy and Tang Sect have noted your severe violent tendencies in their evaluations of you. The Forbidden Arsenal will probably be restricted in its accessibility to you. Also, what are you planning on doing? Blowing up Sky Dragon Planet?”
Lan Xuanyu shook his head, “Oh, that’s not the case. But having powerful weapons for self-defense is always a good thing. Speaking of which, I’m truly interested in the Forbidden Arsenal. I really want to know the extent to which our current top technology can reach in terms of destructive power. In terms of resources, the Federation surely cannot compare to the Dragon Horse Galaxy, but in terms of technology, the Dragon Horse Galaxy is far inferior to the Federation. They haven’t even truly entered the technological era. They mostly cobble together Warships by piling resources, but in fact, they don’t have a proper system. From the data we collected this time, it is obvious that catching up to us in technology is just a pipe dream.”
“In the Dragon Horse Galaxy, even some relatively weaker races are stronger in technological aspects than Sky Dragon Planet and Sky Horse Star. Sky Dragon Planet and Sky Horse Star, relying on strong personal combat power, in fact, don’t need any Warships at all. I think, in a one-on-one situation, if a Super God Level Dragon Knight riding a Mount Dragon goes all out, even our Dragon King Level Escort Ship is likely not their match. What truly makes them wary is only the main cannon of our motherships. So if I were to be rewarded by the Federation or the Academy, I would definitely want technological rewards. To better arm our Thirty-Three Skywing, ensuring greater security for us all.”
“Hmm,” Tree Elder nodded, “A technological reward would be feasible. Your thought process is very clear.”
“Then what about the Forbidden Arsenal, I’m also thinking of my own safety!” Lan Xuanyu said with a chuckling laugh.
“Let’s discuss it later. It’s not something I can decide. When we get back, I’ll speak to the Pavilion Master for you. The Pavilion Master still has quite a bit of influence. Plus, you are now a level 8 Fighting Sky yourself. The items you guys brought back should get everyone a military rank promotion. However, you’re already a rear admiral, making further promotion difficult, and advancing in the Fighting Sky ranks is also challenging. I guess the federation will have a hard time deciding how to reward you.”
Lan Xuanyu chuckled, “No rush, the rewards can accumulate. I’ll use them when needed.”
Tree Elder took a deep look at the young man in front of him, knowing that from the moment Lan Xuanyu successfully infiltrated Sky Dragon Planet, his status in the federation had surged. He truly stepped onto the high-level battlefield stage. Given the confrontation between the federation and Dragon Horse Galaxy, his importance now might even surpass that of a Cosmic Fleet!
With a no-holds-barred full speed flight consuming tremendous fuel, it took less than three days for the Thirty-Three Skywing Warship to return near the Seventh Fleet. They deactivated stealth mode and sent their identification.
Soon, Lan Xuanyu saw the face of Yan Xinghe, the commander of the Dragon Three Battleship, on the screen.
“You finally came back. Immediately return to our warship. The escort ship will arrive soon.” After dropping this sentence, the screen was shut off before Lan Xuanyu could even respond. But from Yan Xinghe’s excited expression, it was evident that the commander of the Dragon Three Battleship was very much looking forward to his return.
Lan Xuanyu put on his rear admiral military uniform, looking at his male identity with a bit of tears-filled impulse. Finally, not having to pretend to be the Golden Dragon Princess anymore!
Led by the escort ship, the Thirty-Three Skywing Warship silently merged into the belly passage of the Dragon Three Battleship.
When Lan Xuanyu led his companions off the warship, Yan Xinghe was already waiting outside in person, accompanied only by a few personal soldiers, with no other officers.
“Captain, why did you come in person?” Lan Xuanyu hurriedly approached and gave a military salute to Yan Xinghe.
Yan Xinghe returned the salute, his gaze at Lan Xuanyu notably peculiar and even deliberately swept him up and down before finally looking at the others. He didn’t say much but nodded and said, “Let’s head back to the base first. Others rest, and you come with me.”
While speaking, Yan Xinghe led Lan Xuanyu to his car.
The car door closed and the autopilot activated. Now it was only Yan Xinghe and Lan Xuanyu in the car.
“Captain, why are you being so mysterious? Has something happened to the fleet?” Lan Xuanyu asked, puzzled.
Yan Xinghe looked at him again, his strange gaze intensifying, “Xuanyu, there’s no one else here, tell your uncle, were you disguised as a woman?”
“What?” Lan Xuanyu looked at Yan Xinghe wide-eyed, “What do you mean?”
Yan Xinghe explained, “Recently, the federation obtained a video through secret channels, bought at a great cost from Paradise Planet. It’s said to be from a competition on Sky Dragon Planet. In the video, two women face a man. According to the information you sent back, they are probably upper-tier dragons from Sky Dragon Planet.”
Hearing this, Lan Xuanyu was greatly shocked, “The federation got the video from the final match of the Ascending Dragon Competition? Quick, lock down the information! It absolutely can’t leak out; if someone recognizes me, it’ll be big trouble!”
