"Brother Lin is right. If I'm not wrong, there are still two people from the other side on those two large warships. If we are ruthless and get rid of them, their fleet will be completely eliminated. So, surrendering is a good choice. Keep them as seeds and at least get some points in the end." Ao Tianba was very clear. When everyone's strength was similar, they could compete or cooperate. However, after one party's strength was greatly reduced, it was not a problem to become a vassal to the stronger party.
After all, this was a competition, and the most important thing was to obtain points. As for hatred? It was already good enough that ao Tian BA could give them points. He didn't really kill their leader or comrades.
In fact, the warships and treasure ships from the northern port stopped all movements after their flagship fell. Then, they saw their flagship beat away another ancient warship in the same way as the enemy and immediately sent out a signal of surrender.
As the saying goes,"a wise man submits to circumstances." Rather than being completely annihilated, it was better to leave some seeds behind.
"That was really close this time, all thanks to lil bro Lin! If it wasn't for you, this old brother would've been torn down by others countless times. Hahaha, but after this battle, we've finally taken the most important and most difficult step. As long as we don't make any mistakes, we'll definitely be at the top of the list in this competition!" Ao Tianba ordered his men to organize the fleet and return to the port before putting his arm around Lin Yi's shoulder and laughing.
"Wealth is found in danger. This time, it was dangerous, but the harvest was also extremely huge!" Lin Yi couldn't help but smile-it wasn't easy to win, and they'd missed a few losses too. It was finally time to reap the rewards.
"Our fleet is now quite large. It's a pity that the damaged warships need to be repaired. Otherwise, we can directly set off to continue sweeping." Ao Tianba waved his arms in high spirits. The three nearby ports had been destroyed, so there was no need to worry about enemies coming in the short term.
However, ao Tianba felt that it was a waste of time. Wasn't this the time for rapid development and pursuit? It would be too extravagant to stop and recuperate. The initial period was the most important. Even if you didn't develop, others would.
"Brother ao Tian, we have two ancient battleships now. One of them is slightly less damaged, and the other is almost 70% damaged. However, the core array and control system are still there, so we can repair it with time. We also have six good large battleships and two damaged large battleships. We have eight Treasure ships, four of which are full of goods. I mean that we should prioritize repairing this ancient battleship first. We can take our time with the other damaged battleships. After that, we will continue to sail." Lin Yi calculated his gains and started planning his next move.
"We don't need the two broken large warships. We can just mortgage them to exchange for repair fees. The most important thing is the ancient warships. Once we have two ancient warships, it will be possible to kill the flagships of the other fleets." Ao Tianba made his decision immediately. With Lin Yi around, capturing ancient ships was proven possible, and so he wasn't interested in large ships anymore.
The damaged ones would be sold for money, but the ancient warship had to be repaired!
"The specialties of the other three ports are sold at ao Tian port, and the price can be doubled. Three ships of things can be exchanged for six ships of goods. Although we have enough treasure ships, we don't need so many goods. What I mean is three ships for three ships, and the rest will be used as resource reserves for the ancient warship to prevent the same situation from happening again." Lin Yi's memory of running out of resources at the last moment was still fresh in his mind, so he was very concerned about the replenishment.
"We'll do as you say, lil bro Lin. If you have any other ideas, let's continue our discussion. " Ao Tianba accepted Lin Yi's words without any hesitation. After all, Lin Yi had won everything on his own, so what else was there to say?
Outside the illusion, he Hao's eyes swept across the water curtain around ao Tianba. The faint smile on his face did not disappear. He was clearly very interested in the combat ability displayed by ao Tianba.
However, ao Tianba's attention was not only on he Hao's water screen. There were two other water screens that he was also paying attention to.
It was clear that Lin Yi and the others did well, but the others didn't lose out much, perhaps even better.
While he Hao's eyes were wandering back and forth, time was passing by thousands of times faster in the illusion. In the AO Tian port, more than ten days had passed.
"Brother Lin, the fleet has been reorganized, and our new flagship has been repaired. We can set off now!" Ao Tianba greeted with a smile as soon as he found Lin Yi.
The new fleet had one ancient warship as the flagship, three large warships as guards, and Eight Treasure ships were incorporated into it. The other three large warships were left at ao Tian port as reserves to guard the port.
In addition, the damaged ancient warship flagship had begun to be repaired. It might take more time, but it did not matter. This time, the AO Tianba plan had to go further, so the next time he returned, he might be able to see the brand new ancient warship.
"Alright, then let's go! We've wasted enough time. I hope we don't get left behind too much. " Lin Yi and Shangguan LAN 'er had been wandering around the port these days, and they'd gone to all the places they could go. They were quite excited to be able to set off on a voyage.
Lin Yi didn't keep a single bit of the special products on the three ships-they were all sold out. The final result would show the amount of special products, but money was clearly more useful right now.
He'd planned on buying three more exquisite bones to make four, but after some consideration he decided to add two more ships-it'd be a waste to empty a ship, too.
Leaving behind two empty treasure ships was already enough to deal with any possible changes.
He'd wanted to leave the empty ships at the port as reserves, but considering the huge amount of money he'd get from each port, the empty ships would be used at the next one.
This time, ao Tianba chose the northern route. After the other party lost their flagship, the rest of the people surrendered. Therefore, the northern port was no different from their own to ao Tianba. There was no risk in making the first bucket of gold of trade there.
