Chapter 446: Redeeming Warships

"Ding. Replying to the Host, of course there are such things in the System Mall — they just weren't displayed."

"If the Host needs them, the System can search them out for the Host!"

"Then for the Emperor, search for Scout Warships that can use Spirit Stones."

Hearing that the System simply hadn't displayed them, Liu Bian immediately spoke to the System.

"Ding. The items the Host needs have been searched out. Please check them yourself, Host!"

As the System prompt faded, the Mall panel before Liu Bian indeed changed.

The previously listed Scout Warships had now become ones powered by Spirit Stones.

Moreover, their grade had also become Yellow Grade Supreme.

From this one could tell that to use Spirit Stones as power, the grade had to reach at least Yellow Grade Supreme.

"System, for the Emperor, redeem one Red Dragon Warship, forty-nine Yellow Dragon Warships, and five hundred Scout Warships."

After viewing the Scout Warships, Liu Bian did not hesitate and immediately spoke to the System.

"Ding. Understood, Host."

"Redeemed for the Host: one Red Dragon Warship, forty-nine Yellow Dragon Warships, and five hundred Scout Warships."

"Host has spent ___ National Fortune Value points on redemption, remaining National Fortune Value points."

"The Host's redeemed warships have been stored in the System Space. Please check them yourself, Host!"

As the System prompt faded, Liu Bian immediately opened the System Panel and began to look.

……

"There's still quite a bit of National Fortune Value left. Now it all depends on whether Xu Shu and the other three can quickly govern Yuzhou and the other three provinces."

"The combined population of these four provinces is over sixteen million. If the people of all four provinces can provide National Fortune Value for the Emperor, that's nearly eight million points of National Fortune Value!"

Thinking of this, even with Liu Bian's temperament, he could not help feeling a surge of excitement.

"It seems the Emperor must notify Xu Shu and the others to speed up the progress. These four provinces still have quite a few Aristocratic Families!"

After calming down, Liu Bian thought of the Aristocratic Families in the four provinces and said coldly.

"But with Xu Shu and the others, plus the covert assistance of the Dark Guard, all of this is merely a matter of time!"

"Right now, the most important thing is still these warships. These big fellows won't be easy to deliver to Gan Ning and the others!"

Thinking of the warships stored in the System Space, Liu Bian felt a headache coming on.

These big fellows are all quite large. Currently, the largest Identity Jade Token Space among everyone is only one hundred cubic meters.

That much space can't even fit a single warship. But when he thought of the steep price of a Space Ring, his heart ached too.

"Damn it, forget it. If I don't redeem one, there's no way to deliver them to Gan Ning. Surely I can't expect to deliver warships personally!"

If he really did that, it would be far too beneath the dignity of the Emperor of the Han Empire.

"Besides, Xu Shu and the others will soon have the four provinces well-governed for the Emperor. By then, this bit of National Fortune Value won't matter!"

Gritting his teeth silently, Liu Bian still decided to redeem a Space Ring.

Immediately, Liu Bian gritted his teeth and redeemed a Heavenly Upper Grade Space Ring in one go.

Kongling Ring: Heavenly Upper Grade, Storage Space five thousand cubic meters, priced at three hundred thousand National Fortune Value.

This was the Heavenly Upper Grade Space Ring Liu Bian redeemed, costing him a full three hundred thousand National Fortune Value.

Now, his National Fortune Value was down to only ___ points.

But it was all worth it. With a Navy, there would be no fear of the Water Armies of Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

When the time came and his Navy made its debut, it would absolutely shock all under heaven.

However, although a Heavenly Upper Grade Space Ring held a full five thousand cubic meters, it still couldn't fit all the warships.

Liu Bian planned to deliver these warships to Gan Ning in two batches.

But now that the warships were in hand, the most important thing missing was energy — these warships all ran on Spirit Stones.

From a rough look, if these warships were only sailing, one Low Grade Spirit Stone could power them for about a day.

And Liu Bian had redeemed fifty warships. Just for daily sailing, that would require fifty Low Grade Spirit Stones a day, not counting the consumption of the Spirit Stone Cannons.

Yellow Dragon Warship: one Spirit Stone Cannon, one Low Grade Spirit Stone, can be used ten times. Red Dragon Warship: one Spirit Stone Cannon, one Low Grade Spirit Stone, can be used five times.

Calculated this way, it wasn't actually expensive.

Immediately, Liu Bian exchanged out a hundred thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones — these Spirit Stones would be enough for Gan Ning to use for quite a while.

After all, the Spirit Stone Cannons weren't used every day either.

"Li Liangcheng!"

After finishing his preparations, Liu Bian called out toward the door of the Imperial Study.

The Eunuch Chief Steward Li Liangcheng, who had been waiting outside, heard Liu Bian's words and immediately pushed the door open and entered.

"Your subject pays respects to Your Majesty!"

"Take this Space Ring and personally deliver it to Gan Ning. Inside are the Warships he needs and a hundred thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones."

"These Warships are all powered by Low Grade Spirit Stones. Inside is the usage method I prepared for him — once he reads it, he'll understand on his own."

"Tell Gan Ning that this is only the first batch. Once he arrives at the Xuzhou garrison and takes out these Warships, send someone to me to collect the second batch."

Liu Bian looked at Li Liangcheng and instructed him with a solemn expression.

Seeing Liu Bian's such grave expression, Li Liangcheng also knew that these Warships were certainly no simple matter.

Moreover, these Warships were actually powered by Spirit Stones, which further proved their extraordinary nature.

Li Liangcheng solemnly took the Space Ring from Liu Bian's hands and said gravely to Liu Bian:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. This servant will personally deliver it into General Gan's hands!"

Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction.

Afterward, Li Liangcheng took his leave of Liu Bian and quickly walked out of the Imperial Study.

Neither of them worried that any mishap would occur.

One should know that Li Liangcheng had currently reached the strength of the Postnatal Third Heaven.

With such powerful cultivation, in all of Tian Xia, apart from some of the generals under Liu Bian whose strength surpassed his, no one else was a match for him.

After Li Liangcheng departed, Liu Bian immediately took out the egg of the Zhenguo Divine Beast from the System Space.

"Goodness, this egg is really not small at all!"
