Increasing Qi Ming's total energy capacity brought enormous benefits. The most obvious was extending its endurance, allowing the ship to travel farther without constantly worrying about resupply.
This change was like expanding a reservoir sevenfold, turning a small pool into a large one.
Of course, no matter how large the reservoir was, it still needed water.
As its capacity increased, Qi Ming's energy percentage actually dropped. Its energy reserves, previously above sixty percent, plummeted to eleven percent.
Filling Qi Ming to the brim had already been difficult. Now, it had become even harder.
Fan Lang had previously blasted Fan Sha to death and driven the Moon Palace Fairy to her death, gaining a haul of spoils. Those spoils were worth a fortune and could be used to replenish Qi Ming, which would be a great help.
Fan Lang estimated that if he invested every last bit of his wealth, he should be able to fill Qi Ming's energy reserves to over ninety percent before departure, enough for a long voyage.
"Improving the total capacity alone isn't enough. I need to modify its other data too. Speed, firepower, energy conversion—they're all important. I have to forcibly upgrade this Seventeen-Star Rank starship to the level of an Eighteen-Star Grade!"
Fan Lang was not satisfied with that. That very day, he began the next round of modifications.
Many more days passed in a flash. He conquered the second set of data and increased Qi Ming's speed sevenfold!
If he continued modifying it at this rate, then once every aspect of Qi Ming had been altered, its overall performance would soar by leaps and bounds.
There were many master craftsmen in the universe skilled at building starships, capable of modifying and strengthening them. But none of them could possibly multiply a starship's capabilities several
