Chapter 1218

Neptune projected everyone's bounty posters into the void one by one.

Gu Ding and his crew looked at the bounty posters one by one. For pirates, an increase in the bounty was a form of glory.

In the words of a great pirate from the Middle Ages, danger and glory coexist.

The higher the bounty, not only did it mean that a pirate's glory was more glorious, but it also meant that the danger of being hunted was higher.

The names and numbers on the bounty posters made Gu Ding's pirate crew feel both happy and worried.

…

"I'm sorry that even you're wanted because of us." Gu Ding looked at Elizabeth helplessly.

"How does it feel to be wanted for the first time?" Liliath winked at Elizabeth.

"I feel … a little nervous, inexplicably excited, and a little worried …" Elizabeth answered the question with a bitter smile.

"You're quite suited to be an Interstellar Pirate." Although Liliath's words were a compliment, Elizabeth was not happy.

"It's normal to be worried. After all, the bounty we're facing this time is unprecedentedly high, and the bounty creator is Sovereign King Palace. Just this alone is enough to make us suffer. "Neptune had a helpless expression on his face.

"Everyone needs to be clear that Sovereign King Palace is not like any other force. They don't even have their own army. However, the Sovereign King Palace was a supreme existence in this plane. They can command all the forces in the entire dimension. "

"Moreover, as long as it does not violate their own interests, almost all the forces in the entire dimension hope to have a cooperative relationship with Sovereign King Palace in all aspects. If they perform well, some forces may be directly supported by Sovereign King Palace and receive a large amount of resources. They may even be able to upgrade their holy land's level in a short period of time. Therefore, this bounty is different from any previous bounty. It's very likely that we'll be encircled by all the forces in the entire dimension. Even our usual replenishment of supplies will be affected. "

"We'll have to avoid the bases of the various forces when purchasing supplies." Gu Ding frowned when he heard this.

"Generally speaking, the bases of the major forces are the most abundant in supplies. Other planets are much poorer in resources. Avoiding the bases of the major forces to purchase supplies is very likely to make purchases that could have been completed in one go take many times to complete. In particular, obtaining some rare materials has become a big problem. "

"Also, almost every inhabited Star Region on the Main Plane has large and small residences of various major forces. Even if we don't appear on the base planet, the local residents will report us immediately. As long as we purchase supplies, our coordinates will be exposed once. When that happens, a large number of powerhouses will calculate our route based on our coordinates. This will also cause us endless trouble along the way. "

Neptune's words silenced everyone from the brief joy of the increase in the bounty. Everyone began to realize the seriousness of the problem.

"We can only purchase supplies from the black market. We can't make any stops on the administrative planets where normal people live. We can only stop at the black market planets. Although there's a chance that our whereabouts will be exposed on the black market planets, the chances are much lower than on ordinary administrative planets. The managers of the black market will not allow their customers' information to be leaked in their area of management. This will affect their reputation in the black market. Even so, there may be people who will take the risk and go against the wishes of the managers to leak our information in exchange for a bounty. We have to guard against this. "It was Miko who said this. His suggestion solved the problem to a certain extent.

"The things in the black market will be a little more expensive, but it's not a problem. When I saw the bounty just now, I also checked our bank accounts. The accounts that were publicly listed under our names have all been frozen. It's okay, though. That account only accounts for about three percent of our total savings. If I spend some time, I can earn it back in a day. Of course, this is also thanks to Neptune. If he hadn't created an untraceable virtual account, we might not even have the money to buy underwear this time. "

Faust, who was in charge of the crew's finances, would not normally agree to let everyone go to the black market to trade. This was because the price of almost everything would double in the black market. However, most merchants in the black market accepted haggling. As for the results of haggling, it depended on the buyer's ability.

The problem of purchasing supplies was basically solved. The Gu Ding Pirate Crew moved on to the second topic.

"This time, our bounty has increased collectively. This is a good thing for Interstellar Pirates, but it's also a disaster." Neptune voiced his opinion.

"Gu Ding's 9.9 billion Virtual God Crystals is already the limit of a Lord. It's close to the bounty of a Lord-level powerhouse. Under normal circumstances, even Perfect Lord-Level powerhouses rarely reach this amount. There are also others who have more than a billion Virtual God Crystals, which is the standard for extreme Lord-Level bounties. This time, there are bound to be many Upper Lord-Level and even extreme Lord-Level who will attack us. To them, we're like a plate of delicious food that fell from the sky for free. "

"Our entire crew's bounty adds up to tens of billions of Virtual God Crystals. With this amount of money, those Lord-Level can definitely gather several sets of top-notch Heaven-level Divine Weapons …"

After hearing Neptune's words, everyone fell silent again because what Neptune said was the truth.

Logically speaking, a Holy King powerhouse's combat effectiveness was only comparable to a Middle Lord-Level powerhouse. Their bounties were usually between 30 million to 50 million Virtual God Crystals. A Holy Lord's bounty was usually between 10 million to 30 million Virtual God Crystals. Now, everyone's bounties were a hundred times the original set amount.

The problem with such a high bounty was that everyone's strength did not match the bounty.

"With the overall strength of our crew now, we're indeed the best among the younger generation. Almost no other crew can compare to us. However, most of those who participate in the hunt won't be from the younger generation. Instead, they'll be lord-level veteran powerhouses. "

"With our current combined strength, if we encounter one extreme Lord-Level or three or more Upper Lord-Level powerhouses, our entire crew will be wiped out."

Neptune stated a fact that everyone was unwilling to hear.

"Our lack of strength is indeed the biggest problem we're facing now. However, don't rush to break through to Holy King Level. Everyone else should aim for Holy King Level first. During this time, Becca and I will also find suitable hunting targets as soon as possible and complete the creation of our Life Divine Weapons. After Neptune breaks through to Holy King Level, check the conditions for becoming a True Holy King as soon as possible. If it's confirmed that we can become Lord-Level first and then slowly become a True Holy King, then let everyone break through to Lord-Level cultivation as soon as possible. If that doesn't work, then we'll think of something else. "

Gu Ding quickly made a decision and took out the remaining eight Good Fortune Blood Fruits from his Inventory.

"I still have Fortune Blood Fruits here, but there aren't many left. From what I remember, each person can only eat three at most. Any more and it won't have any effect. Becca swallowed so many last time, so the situation might be special. "

"I don't need it. I feel that I have enough precepts in my body. I just need an opportunity to break through." Phaser rejected the Fortune Blood Fruit.

"Me too, no need." Hark shook his head.

"Then Dockett and Faust will each get three. Leave the remaining two to me. Although it's useless for me to eat it, I can use it for research. If I can research something with similar effects, I might be able to help a Holy King break through to become a True Holy King, "Neptune said to Gu Ding.

Gu Ding nodded and distributed the Good Fortune Blood Fruits.

After that, the meeting continued.

After spending more than an hour discussing other issues, everyone dispersed and began a new round of closed-door training.

The new bounty was also pushing the entire pirate crew toward a stronger path …
