"Report?"

Kong Huaao glanced at the document on the table and shook his head, "This document is classified. Given your rank, you don't have the clearance to view it, Fang Yu, Private First Class."

Private First Class Fang Yu?

Fang Yu blinked, looked at his panel, and indeed saw that a certain attribute column had changed:

Duorong Federation military authority level: Private First Class (100/500)

Well, now... Does this mean I'm a subordinate of Kong Huaao?

The natives actually understand the nature of the Outer Realm Captain. For the natives, each level of authority is highly binding.

A Lieutenant to a Private First Class is an absolute superior, an absolute leader.

But for an Outer Realm Captain without much organizational discipline, the military's binding force is not as strong.

Nominally, Kong Huaao is now Fang Yu's superior, but in reality, Kong Huaao also knows that Fang Yu probably doesn't want to be bound by the military.

Use tasks to bind.

Instead of duties.

This has been the way all forces have pondered for a long time—the way to interact with Outer Realm Captains.

Disappointed by Fang Yu's expression, Kong Huaao coughed lightly, shook his head, and spoke softly:

"Although you don't have much clearance to view the details, as a key participant in this matter, I can give you some hints."

Kong Huaao glanced at Fang Yu, then slowly said, "The conflict in the West Qinghai Sea Region is very likely to spread to the Southern Island Sea Region here, so you better be mentally prepared."

Upon hearing Kong Huaao's words, Fang Yu was not surprised; this was almost clear information from the main task prompt on his panel. What he cared about was… the difficulty index of this task.

After all, this task was the main storyline triggered by Fang Yu, who could not only obtain 20% more rewards from it.

But also, once the entire main task is completed, Fang Yu can receive a final reward from this main task.

Previously, Fang Yu had heard people mention the main task on the forum.

There had been captains who triggered the main task, and once triggered, it wasn't just one captain's matter but something all captains in the area had to participate in.

Once completed, the trigger would receive extremely generous settlement rewards.

It's said that every settlement reward is unique and can't be obtained anywhere, very mysterious.

And all those captains who completed it quickly rose to power with unbeatable combat strength within the same ship type and level.

Fang Yu was internally excited and took this matter to heart.

So, this mess is managed by the military.

But now... Fang Yu desperately wanted to get involved directly to quickly resolve this task line.

"Lieutenant, if the war spreads to the Southern Island Sea Region with the Alien Race and warlords, why do they choose to spread the flames to this area, extending the battle line? What benefit does it give them?"

Fang Yu asked puzzledly.

However, Kong Huaao just kept shaking his head and said to Fang Yu, "That's why we're sending you to investigate Warlord Island's current routes and location."

"Right now, it's hard to judge the opponent's intentions, but getting your route might allow us to discover something and help the progress of this matter."

Kong Huaao said softly.

"When do you think there will be results?"

Fang Yu asked curiously.

Fang Yu's attitude slightly surprised Kong Huaao, "Why are you so concerned about this matter?"

"Ahem... it's nothing, it's for the Duorong Federation, after all. I, Fang Yu, am loyal!"

Fang Yu lied smoothly.

Kong Huaao: ...

I don't believe you...

After measuring Fang Yu up and down, Kong Huaao shook his head after a moment, "I'm not sure, but going out to sea to investigate and validate the route to confirm things will take about a week. Don't worry; if there's any result, I'll let you know."

If it were just a regular Private First Class, Kong Huaao wouldn't be so patient; he would have scolded long ago.

But Fang Yu is the intelligence provider for this task, considered a key participant. Only because Fang Yu provided Warlord Island's location and routes can the military make breakthroughs in this matter.

That's why Kong Huaao is patient with Fang Yu.

"Alright, then I'll be waiting for news from you, Lieutenant Kong!"

Fang Yu nodded, realizing that asking further wouldn't yield results, so he didn't waste any more time and turned to leave Kong Huaao's office.

...

After leaving the military office, Fang Yu saw many captains rushing toward the military office.

One captain saw Fang Yu and couldn't help but shout, "Buddy, what's up? Any movements from the military?"

Fang Yu was taken aback, suddenly realizing these veteran captains had likely heard the main task prompt in their minds and rushed to the military office.

Wanting to check on the progress of the main task.

These veteran captains also clearly assumed Fang Yu was a captain consulting at the office, asking him loudly upon seeing him.

Now, Fang Yu's eyes had completely changed when looking at these veteran captains.

These are our good comrades in revolution!

All brothers in the same trench, helping us complete the main task.

Every veteran Outer Realm Captain engaging in this main task is helping Fang Yu complete the whole series of tasks.

More hands make light work; when the main task needs manpower, he won't worry about resource allocation.

The more people, the faster the ultimate reward will come!

With a friendly smile, Fang Yu patiently explained the situation to the veteran captains.

"I asked, and there aren't any tasks yet. If there's a task, I'll take it!"

Seeing the disappointed looks from the veteran captains, Fang Yu decided to encourage them and said, "This main task is also an opportunity; countless scattered tasks will emerge, and we won't worry about any resource upgrade issues!"

"If a task appears, I promise I'll grab it immediately."

Fang Yu declared firmly.

Listening to Fang Yu's words, the veteran captains exchanged glances and then silently nodded.

Having a collective main task is indeed a good thing for resource shortage issues.

But then, someone whispered, "I wonder which bastard triggered the main task; really got lucky!"

"We have tasks now, but working hard, the biggest benefit will still fall to that bastard."

"Feels like working for someone else, really sucks!"

"Right! If I knew who triggered it, I'd demand he give us some benefits!"

At this moment, a certain captain who triggered the main task touched his nose and quietly slipped away from the crowd…
