God-level Hero-Chapter 455 - 427: Anlicia Becomes Captain

Now, Da Fei had settled the Fishman Tribe nicely in the cargo hold; these dozens of Fishmen were NPCs in non-combat status, and with Da Fei’s current race reputation, there was no way to mobilize them for battle. Of course, Da Fei would never let them fight and needed to protect them specifically.

Typically, players would reach any city or power and accumulate reputation through quests, then gain the right to recruit from that power. The higher the reputation, the more troops can be enlisted, and even higher-level troops can be recruited.

The same principle applied to the Fishman Tribe; as long as Da Fei settled them well and kept expanding and developing their scale, enhancing his own reputation, he would later be able to recruit Fishman troops. If developed well enough, it might also be possible to evolve even more powerful Fishman troops. In any case, with the addition of the Fishman Tribe, Da Fei’s confidence in stabilizing the areas around the Pool of Radiance and paving the way through the World Tree Space significantly increased.

Then, Selvia resurrected the deceased sailors, who, along with Gurgle Gurgle, stayed to guard the ship in their frail state. It must be said that for this resurrection, Da Fei even specifically removed the Sea Soul Staff from Selvia’s equipment bar, otherwise it would have absorbed souls and prevented resurrection. As for the troops that died during the earlier breakout, they had become the source of Mana for the Sea Soul Staff along with the deceased Fishmen. All in all, this was the painstaking part of the Sea Soul Staff; a solution must be found to overcome it.

Now that everything was ready and everyone had rested and recovered, they could continue towards the shipwreck. But after the incident with the Fishmen stealing the ship, Da Fei began to feel uncertain; what if something else happens, like suddenly encountering other players? Although the map was of a higher tier, and players likely wouldn’t come here, if they did, they would undoubtedly be skilled players and must be guarded against.

Da Fei hesitated and said, "The newly recruited Fishman Tribe is extremely important and cannot be lost. I’d like to assign some people to stay and guard the ship. Who is willing to give up the mission and stay guard?"

The members eagerly replied, "Me, me, me! Brother Fei, I’ll stay!"

Da Fei couldn’t help but laugh and cry! If everyone stays, who will do the mission, me alone? Well, it’s not impossible!

Da Bing hurriedly said, "How about this, since Da Wei has just used a powerful skill and doesn’t have combat capability right now, let him stay."

Da Wei also hurriedly said, "Brother Fei, leave it to me!"

Da Fei paused in surprise; Da Wei seemed to be a novice with not-so-great skills, right? Could he handle it? However, seeing that he was one of the earliest members and had also mastered the Divine Skill, Da Fei decided to trust him for now. So, he said, "Alright, I’ll also leave my Ranger Vice Hero on the ship to guard with you."

Anlicia’s value primarily lies in her tactical big moves like mists, Transformation Skill, etc., which can effectively confuse the enemy and hide the ship. If it came to battle, her personal combat strength wouldn’t be much stronger than a level seven soldier and wasn’t necessary for the shipwreck mission, making her the most suitable candidate to stay behind.

Da Bing also said, "Anyone who has extra troops, throw a few to Da Wei!"

The members replied unanimously, "Me, me, I have a few Earth Shooters!"

Watching the team members in harmony, Da Fei sincerely felt relieved and allocated 50 Secret Archers to Anlicia. These Secret Archers were troops obtained in special mission scenarios and could not be traded to other players. With a Divine Artifact in hand and formidable attack and defense capabilities, for Da Fei, a simple mission to clear the shipwreck would not require so many troops. Ensuring the Octopus was completely safe was the most important thing.

Now that everything was ready, it was time to set off.

At this moment, Da Bing hesitated again, "Brother Fei, as for who to appoint in charge during the guard, should I appoint Little Wei as Captain, or Brother Fei’s Little Honey as Captain?"

What is this ’Brother Fei’s Little Honey’! Appointing an NPC Vice Hero as Captain, how would other members view me? Da Fei both laughed and cried, "Just do as you see fit."

Da Bing cleared his throat and said, "Then I appoint Brother Fei’s Little Honey as Captain, and Little Wei as First Officer."

Wow, what flattery! Alright, since I have even appointed an NPC as Vice President before, Da Bing is really thoughtful.

Da Fei shook his head, smiling, "Alright, everyone can set off now." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

. . . . . .

Now, the team advanced towards the shipwreck again. After incorporating Gurgle Gurgle, the surrounding attacking Fishmen indeed reduced significantly; this indeed was the normal scene, and the previous situation had indeed triggered the Sea God’s Curse storyline.

Under Da Fei’s sweeping advance, the team smoothly reached a giant hole beneath the shipwreck, flickering with a space gate, a typical instance mission. No more to say, just enter the instance.

The scene changed, and the team appeared in a dark, moldy ship cabin. As it was a mission instance, this ship cabin scene was much larger than real ship cabin scenes, designed to accommodate more troops and provide a larger battlefield.

The battle below wasn’t much to talk about, just various Sea Beetles, Water Elements, Sailor Skeleton Zombies, ghosts, and so on, all swept away by the Secret Archer. And every time a Zombie Skeleton was defeated, a faint figure would appear to say "thank you" before disappearing – that must be what they call rescuing trapped souls. All in all, very simple and stress-free. However, since this task is rated A, the real challenge must be the BOSS, so better focus on finding and fighting the BOSS.

At this time, Da Bing and Da Wei’s dorm room was in uproar. Just now, everyone’s mobile phones chimed with a notification tone – Brother Hao’s rewards had come through. These newcomers who had just joined and were only a few levels in the game didn’t yet grasp how amazing Brother Fei was, but seeing the additional 10,000 yuan in cash in the message, they truly realized what it meant to be a Tycoon, what it meant to be awesome, and what it meant to have a future following Brother Fei!

A year’s living expenses obtained just like that! In an instant, everyone was exerting all their energy to perform well, and Da Bing was especially thrilled, chugging beer while giving out orders loudly in the dorm.

While the laughter and cheers were in full swing, Da Wei remained unswayed, eyes glued to the game, on high alert for any disturbance in the ocean waves, stirring his nerves.

Just then, something unusual happened. Brother Fei’s Little Honey Hero suddenly spoke up: "Ah! It’s so boring staying here! Not fun, let’s take the ship out for a few rounds!"

Da Wei was shocked and quickly stepped forward to persuade: "No way! The team is all inside the shipwreck, we can’t just wander off!"

Anlicia glanced sideways, pouted, and said: "Kid, who’s the Captain here, you or me? Just a few rounds won’t stop us from coming back!"

Da Wei alarmed: "Not possible! There are too many reefs here, and the fog, we could shipwreck!"

Anlicia snorted: "Shipwreck? Where?"

Da Wei anxiously pointed to the shipwreck debris among the surrounding reefs: "There! Everywhere!"

Anlicia clapped her hands and laughed: "Ice Fruit! With so many shipwrecks there must be treasures, let’s go salvage them – hey! Newbie!" she then ignored Da Wei and waved to Gulu: "You, come here!"

Gulu immediately scampered over: "Master, what does Gulu need to do?"

Hearing Gulu call her Master made Anlicia beam with joy: "Can you, salvage treasures from those shipwrecks? The shiny stuff!"

Gulu eagerly replied: "Gulu has seen them, Gulu’s tribe can serve the Master!"

Anlicia delighted: "Where where! Lead the way quickly!"

Gulu hurriedly said: "Alright, Master! Gulu will swim ahead and lead the way!"

Da Wei hurriedly stopped the Fishman: "No! You can’t go!"

Anlicia angrily asked: "Kid, who are you?"

Da Wei quickly said: "I’m the First Officer!"

Anlicia angrily retorted: "You’re mutinous! I am the Captain, go cool off at the Observatory!"

— System Prompt: Captain Anlicia has removed your First Officer position and appointed you as a Lookout!

Da Wei stood there dumbfounded, then immediately reacted and roared in the dormitory: "Disaster! Brother Fei’s Little Honey is steering the ship to salvage treasures! And she demoted me!"

The whole dormitory erupted in shock!

Meanwhile, Da Fei, who was valiantly attacking the first Water Element BOSS, suddenly heard the terrible news from Da Bing: "Brother Fei, it’s bad, your Little Honey is steering the ship to salvage treasures, and she even demoted Little Wei!"

— Ah Poof! Da Fei spewed out a mouthful of tea!
