Sun Qi was speechless.
Irin was speechless.
Sun Qi suddenly tilted his head. "Woof?"
Irin smiled and returned to his room.
Irin was not surprised.
After all, "Pursuing Shadow" was not a skill that could make him disappear completely. It was not as powerful as he thought.
Sun Qi's sense of smell was ten times better than a human's, and his hearing was eighteen times better than a normal human's. It was not strange that he could sense Irin's presence.
After Irin left.
That dirty Sun Qi lay on the ground again and chewed on the dry bones with relish.
Just like last night, when Irin silently sneaked into the "Hot Rose" from the back door, he released his senses and found something that made him not know whether to laugh or cry.
The lady boss, Ruth, was sleeping naked on his bed.
There were empty wine bottles beside the bed. Even if Irin only used his senses, he could imagine that his room must be filled with the strong smell of alcohol.
"Something is wrong with you, lady boss!"
Irin suddenly had the urge to drag Ruth's leg and throw her out.
But suddenly.
Irin thought about what was going to happen in the near future. He sighed and dismissed the thought.
There were more and more pirate ships docked at the port.
There were all kinds of flags, all kinds of painting styles … There were realistic, abstract, impressionistic, wild, and so on. It was dazzling.
Irin worked for the whole night and finally completed 80% of the "preliminary preparations".
If everything went well, he would be able to recruit a good group of people tonight.
Well, that was if there were no accidents.
But it was okay. If there were any accidents, Irin had a backup plan.
If there were really bad luck and something terrible happened, Irin could only give up on this plan.
"Hehe, maybe starting a new life is not a bad choice."
Irin laughed at himself, with a meaning that no one could understand.
If he guessed correctly, the lady boss, Ruth, would not wake up for a while.
Irin ran to Ruth's room and smelled Ruth's blanket. There was no strange smell, so he lay down.
Before going to bed, Irin casually opened the apostle panel to take a look.
Other than the slow recovery of his Spiritual Energy Value, there were no other changes.
Irin suddenly recalled the time when he had just become an apostle. There was a time when he exhausted his Mana Points to the limit, and his Spirit attribute actually increased by a little.
However, such a good thing was indeed something that could only be encountered by chance.
For the past two nights, Irin had been madly consuming his Spiritual Energy Value, but he did not dare to exhaust it to the point of exhaustion. Therefore, his Spirit attribute did not increase at all.
Of course, even if it was exhausted, there was a high chance that it would not be able to increase.
It all depended on one's face and luck, and couldn't be forced.
Ka —
Yi Lin had just laid down when he got up again and locked the door.
"The lady boss usually doesn't close the door. This time, she shouldn't have a spare key to her room, right?"
With this thought, Irin was able to sleep peacefully.
Otherwise, Irin would not be able to eat or sleep well at the thought of a certain lonely lady boss who only had eyes for her beauty.
"Why should a woman make things difficult for another woman?"
Irin removed all the restraints and could finally breathe properly. He directly laid down on Ruth's bed and fell asleep.
…
…
Bang bang bang.
Bang bang bang bang.
Irin, who was sound asleep, was suddenly woken up by a series of hurried knocks … or more accurately, knocks on the door.
Duang。
Irin sat up and swayed a few times. His shoulders were sore.
Looking down, Irin could only helplessly shake his head.
"No matter how many times I do it, it's hard to get used to it. Actually, Mengmeng's body is quite … free."
Bang bang bang bang!
"I know you're in there! Get the hell out of there! Do you believe that I won't rush in and strip you? Come out! "
As expected.
It was the lady boss's voice.
It sounded like she was a little angry.
Creak —
Irin opened the door expressionlessly.
Duang。
The moment Irin opened the door, the lady boss's originally valiant and high-spirited manner disappeared in a very short period of time. Her eyes shone, and a slight flush appeared on her dark skin.
Irin sighed. "Lady boss, you're not right again."
The lady boss laughed and looked away. She skillfully changed the topic. "Oh, you're awake? The sun is really bright today. Oh God, no, the weather is really big today. "
Irin: "…"
With Ruth's help, Irin once again bound her body into Molly's shape.
Ah, uncomfortable.
Seeing that Elizabeth Ling was about to leave, Ruth did not continue to pester her endlessly. With a serious expression, she said, "You promised me that you would only take two days off. I heard some bad rumors. In the next few days, more dirty pirates will gather on the island. Well, more than usual."
“OK。”
Irin smiled sweetly.
Ah, no, she smiled slightly.
The sense of immersion in this role was a little too strong.
"So, remember not to go out tonight!"
The corner of Ruth's mouth curved into a faint smile.
After persuading Ruth to leave, Irin looked through the window at the gloomy sky outside. She muttered to herself, "Looks like I'll have to work overtime during the day."
Irin came out of the tavern after changing into her Khorium appearance equipment.
It was drizzling.
The floor was mottled and greasy, and there were rum bottles everywhere. There was even rum that had not dried up yet mixed with the rain. There was a strange smell in the air that was mixed with all kinds of smells.
The sea in the distance was filled with a thick layer of fog. In this kind of weather, there were no pirate ships sailing. From time to time, from the thick fog, there would be a ship full of scars, with a tattered skeleton flag flying on it.
When Irin left the tavern, she found that the dog was still lying lazily at the entrance of the tavern. Its fur was covered with rain, and the dog looked quite pitiful.
When Irin appeared in the posture of a "skeleton gentleman", the dog, who was squinting in the rain, suddenly sat up and stared at Irin. Its eyes were filled with an indescribable feeling.
"Woof!"
Suddenly.
The dog barked at Irin from afar.
Irin: "…"
"Woof woof!"
"…"
"Woof woof woof?"
"…"
Irin silently took out a piece of dry black bread from her storage space and threw it at the dog.
In an instant, Gou 'zi grabbed the black bread and quieted down, no longer barking blindly.
Irin couldn't help but sigh. On Tegatu Island, even a dog had the style of a pirate.
The weather was gloomy, and the sea was covered with fog. Even the air seemed to be sticky. If Irin wasn't wearing a mask, she reckoned that if she walked two rounds outside, she might hurt the smooth skin on her face.
"Eh? Wait, this is Elizabeth Ling's face. What does it have to do with me, Irin? "
Irin almost forgot that she was just playing the role.
As she walked through the alleys and headed towards the port, Irin took out the small equipment that she asked Molly to make in the real world.
It was a synthetic leather belt. The style was good and it was very sturdy.
On the belt, there was a long metal box made of alloy fixed with rivets. Inside the box, there were ten grooves of equal size. If one looked carefully, there was a simple spring structure at the bottom of the groove. As long as one pressed down, the spring in the groove would slightly spring the object in the groove, making it easier to access.
The grooves were numbered from "1" to "10" according to the order specified by Irin.
Before making this small item, Irin had already told Molly to only use the simplest mechanical structure and not to add any high-tech electronic components.
Otherwise, once it exceeded the "threshold" allowed by the storage space, it would not be able to be placed in the storage space.
The "tower" seemed to have its own standards for judging the objects in the storage space.
She remembered that someone once wanted to play a borderline game and tried to copy a primitive "flintlock gun" to bring into the Inner World, but it failed.
Ever since someone tried this, Irin did not plan to make anything too complicated from the real world to bring into the Inner World.
The small equipment that Molly asked someone to make did not seem to have reached the "threshold" of the tower's "prohibition".
"Hmm …" Irin hesitated for a few seconds. "Explosive box? Hmm, it's yours. "
She instantly gave the "small equipment" a name.
Elisabeth Winter was very satisfied with her taste in naming things.
Irin wrapped the explosive box around her waist. In fact, without the box, it would be no different from a normal belt.
With a flip of her hand, Irin took out another "explosive bead" from the storage space.
Then, she held the explosive bead in her hand for a moment and activated the skill.
[Unstable Explosive].
After rubbing the bead, Irin carefully placed the "explosive" in the "1" groove according to the order.
The inside of the groove was just enough to hold one explosive bead, not one bit more, not one bit less. This prevented the explosive bead from colliding with the inside of the box during violent movements and accidentally exploding.
"Phew —"
Irin saw that a portion of her Psionic Value had dropped and could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
Plus … her chest was too tight.
[Unstable Explosive] was a skill that, if used well, could do a lot of tricks. It was indeed an A-grade offensive skill.
It was just that the Psionic Value consumed was too much.
If Irin did not still want to save the chaos value to reactivate the legendary "Apocalypse Mount", this [Unstable Explosive] would be the first choice to add the "module" at the moment.
"Well, I'll use it first."
Irin hid the explosive box under her clothes.
She opened the captain's panel.
On the captain's panel, there was no change in all the data so far.
There was only one subordinate crew member.
[Charlie].
Irin clicked on [Charlie]'s attributes.
Charlie's combat power was still "E".
There were no other special changes except for the "loyalty" column, which dropped from "-10" to "-20".
The description behind also upgraded from "Betrayal at any time" to "About to betray."
Irin closed the captain's panel and could not help but laugh.
"Pirates are indeed pirates. They made me understand that this profession has only an upper limit … no lower limit."
"It seems that there is a good saying, first stabilize the internal situation, then resist the external situation."
She muttered to herself.
Not long after.
Irin had stepped on the deck of the "Queen" again.
“?”
On the "Queen".
The atmosphere was peaceful.
Everything seemed to be in order and calm.
More than a dozen employees were trembling with fear, using wet mops to clean the deck.
— — Among them, there seemed to be [Mops Master] Charlie.
There was a strong man wearing a hat with a bare upper body. His skin was covered with old crisscrossing scars, and there were also scars left by bullets. It was obvious that he had been through hundreds of battles.
The man in the hat stood at a high place, shouting at the crew members from time to time.
"Brand! Are you not full yet? Don't you want today's rum? "
"Hmph! And you! One-eyed dog! Did you f * cking spend all your energy on a woman's belly last night? Hurry up and be quick about it! "
"All of you listen to me! I'm the great captain, Dudin Wade. Have you forgotten who's the owner of this' Queen '? "
"Charlie! Why are you standing there? Hmm? Did bird shit get into your damn eyes? Or were you blinded by a woman last night? Blink, who's your relative? "
Tap.
Suddenly.
Everyone stopped what they were doing.
Tap, tap.
A clear sound of footsteps landed on the deck of the "Queen" without warning, and at the same time, it fell into the ears of every crew member.
In an instant, for some reason, the messy "Queen" instantly quieted down. It was too quiet.
Only the "Captain" Dudin Wade, who was standing at a high place, was still pointing at Charlie's nose and chattering.
Charlie's eyes were filled with fear, looking behind Dudin Wade, frantically throwing flirtatious glances.
Tap, tap, tap.
"Shh, shh, shh —"
Charlie desperately winked behind Dudin Wade, and his eyes were about to bleed.
My respected Sir Dudin Wade, how can you be so unobservant!
The lowly Charlie was about to pee in fear!
At this moment.
Dudin Wade, who claimed to be the captain of the "Queen", also felt that something was wrong.
How could that group of lazy scum who didn't work all day suddenly become so quiet?
"Quiet" would never appear in the dictionary of pirates.
An elegant and clean figure slowly shuttled through a group of dirty pirates.
One step, two steps, three steps.
The pitch-black and smooth black leather shoes stepped on the deck. In this silence, the sound was crisp and pleasant, as if it was some kind of moving musical instrument, making people unable to bear to interrupt the rhythm.
Irin was wearing a mask.
— "Smiley Face".
Although it was just an ordinary mask from the real world, the workmanship was exquisite. In this era, it was undoubtedly a gadget that only the nobles in the palace were qualified to play with.
"Hehe, my loyal Charlie, didn't you tell me who the master of this' Queen 'is?" "Hehe, my loyal Charlie, didn't you tell me?
He lowered his voice, with a bit of magnetism. Through the mask, there was an indiscernible androgynous gender.
In addition, he tried his best to bind his body into the shape of Molly, so for a moment, no one noticed that Irin was actually a "woman".
This voice, in the ears of the pirates, was at most indistinguishable as a man or a woman, and sounded relatively young.
Dudin Wade suddenly turned around.
His eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, and one could tell at a glance that he was not a good person.
Ah, that's right, there are no good people among pirates.
Therefore, Irin also planned to learn to be a qualified bad person.
With this thought, Irin felt that he was in the right, and his chest was puffed up.
When the loyal Charlie saw the "captain" looking at him, he secretly glanced at the tall, strong and murderous Dudin Wade. He could not help but take a few steps back. His eyes flickered, and he stammered, "My respected captain … this … that …"
"You are the 'Skeleton Gentleman'?"
Dudin Wade sneered and looked at Charlie with disdain. He ignored him and looked at the short and pretentious figure not far away with disdain.
Irin corrected him, "It's the 'Skeleton Gentleman Captain'."
"You? Hehehe! " Dudin Wade grinned, revealing a row of rare and messy yellow teeth in his mouth, "You're just a brat who's still wet behind the ears? Are you an adult? Can you drink rum? Have you ever seen a woman with white skin? "
"Hey! Boy, you're too naive. The world of pirates is not as simple as you think! Don't think that you're the owner of the Queen after you killed our former Captain Andre! "
A woman with white skin?
Irin looked down at "himself".
He quickly raised his head again.
Then he smiled and said, "Open your mouth."
Dudin Wade, "?"
"Open your mouth."
“??”
"Don't you understand human language? Open your mouth. "
Dudin Wade could not help but laugh, "Is there something wrong with your brain? Do you really think that I, the great Captain Dudin Wade, am a fool? You tell me to open my mouth, and I open my mouth? Hahahaha — "
Dudin Wade raised his head and laughed as he slowly pulled out the scimitar at his waist.
Ding!
No one heard it, but Irin's waist suddenly made a crisp sound. In a split second, Irin flicked his index finger, and a silver light secretly flew out and shot into Dudin Wade's laughing mouth.
Whoosh —
"Ha — ah? Woo woo woo — cough cough cough! "
Dudin Wade, who was shot in the mouth, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his mouth, and there seemed to be a strange coolness.
You dare to shoot my mouth?!
Dudin Wade was furious. He wanted to spit out the small ball that was inexplicably shot into his mouth, and then he waved his scimitar to chop this abominable brat into several pieces and throw them into the sea to feed the fish.
Boom!
All of a sudden!
The furious Dudin Wade's mouth full of yellow teeth made an explosive sound. In broad daylight, it suddenly exploded. Flesh and blood splattered. Dudin Wade did not even have time to scream. In the sudden explosion, his eyes rolled back and he fell back.
A mouthful of yellow teeth like a peacock spreading its tail, with fresh blood foam, flew out of Dudin Wade's mouth and flew everywhere on the deck.
"Cough cough cough!"
A bald pirate who was standing ten meters away from Dudin Wade suddenly coughed. After coughing for a long time, he spat out a big yellow tooth stained with blood from his mouth.
— The tooth that was originally in Dudin Wade's mouth.
"Explode, explode, explode!"
All the pirates stared at Dudin Wade.
How could such a good person explode just like that?!
All the pirates who witnessed this terrible scene subconsciously clamped their legs and covered their mouths, for fear that the next explosion would explode in their mouths.
Irin silently kneaded another ball. While everyone's attention was attracted by poor Dudin Wade, he quietly stuffed it into the "1" groove on his waist.
The deck was dead silent.
Only Dudin Wade, who was lying on his back, had black smoke billowing out of his mouth.
Oh, it also had the bloody smell of blood.
Tap tap tap.
Irin walked step by step toward Dudin Wade.
This time, no one dared to look down on this "captain" who looked thin and weak.
Ten steps.
Five steps.
Two steps.
Irin walked to Dudin Wade's feet.
Suddenly.
Dudin Wade's dead fish eyes suddenly regained their vigor. He suddenly bounced up from the ground, and without anyone else's expectation, he threw a punch at Yi Lin's damn mask with a whistling sound.
"Wow —"
Seeing that Dudin Wade did not die under the inexplicable explosion, all the pirates subconsciously cheered.
"Haha …"
Irin deliberately laughed loudly and mysteriously.
Dudin Wade's face suddenly changed.
Although the change in his face was completely covered by the billowing smoke and broken flesh, no one could see it. But in fact, at the moment when he punched, Dudin Wade's face did change dramatically.
Even though Dudin Wade did not know what trick the damn "skeleton gentleman" in front of him was playing.
But it was not important!
I am a pirate!
There was nothing that the great Dudin Wade could not solve with one punch!
If there was … then two punches!
In his view, although the small character was a bit strange, looking at the small body, it could not withstand his punch at all.
But what Dudin Wade did not expect was that at the moment he punched, the small casserole fist was about to fall on Irin's mask. It seemed to hit an invisible barrier, and the fierce fist suddenly slowed down.
In the eyes of the others, Dudin Wade's fists were originally very fast, carrying the sound of the wind. But suddenly, they slowed down, as if they were playing in slow motion.
The pirates: "?"
The Queen: "?"
Irin smiled slightly. After slowing down Dudin Wade's fist with the Psychic Shield, he released his Psychic Perception and aimed at … the "Psychic Needle" that he had already prepared at his fingertips. With a whoosh, he inserted it into a certain position on Dudin Wade's forehead.
"F * ck —????"
Dudin Wade was about to curse, but suddenly, his legs did not listen to him and twisted violently.
Everyone only heard a crack. Dudin Wade's waist was very flexible and twisted more than half a circle. Then his legs carried his upper body and he ran toward the side of the ship.
His legs were very fast!
Bang!
“???”
Dudin Wade was stunned and directly hit the railing on the side of the ship. After his whole body rotated 720 degrees in the air, with a splash, he fell directly into the sea under everyone's gaze.
"…"
Suddenly.
In the crowd, someone's legs went soft and he knelt on the ground. He stretched out his trembling fingers and his whole body was almost like a fried dough twist.
"Black, black, black, it's black witchcraft!!!"
"Black witchcraft?"
"Our captain actually knows black witchcraft?"
"…"
Including the loyal Charlie, the moment someone said the words "black witchcraft", everyone's brain seemed to have a loud bang, and they were so scared that their faces turned pale.
Everyone looked at the "skeleton gentleman" with fear in their eyes, as if they were looking at a terrible monster.
"Hehe."
Irin habitually lowered the brim of his hat and said slowly, "Now, is there a loyal crew member who will pick up that damn Dudin Wade and hang him on the mainmast for the 'skeleton gentleman captain'?"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Splash! Splash! Splash! …
More than a dozen witty pirates decisively rolled up their sleeves and jumped into the sea without saying anything.
The other crew members who did not have time to jump into the sea to pick up the body looked at each other.
Three seconds later.
Everyone cheered, "Long live the skeleton gentleman captain!"
In an instant, Irin was flooded with a bunch of information.
…
[Received crew member "Brand"!]
[Received crew member "Bob"!]
[Received crew member "Stow Norton"!]
[Crew member "Wang Tiandi" joined the "Queen"!]
[Received crew member "Barrett"!]
[Received crew member "Johnson Meek"!]
[Received …]
Irin opened the captain's panel.
Looking at the messy data on the panel, he felt a faint pain in his temples.
This kind of strategy game did not seem to be something he was good at.
The bunch of "crew members" were all pending personnel who had not been assigned a position yet.
He clicked on the "Queen" again.
The virtual anatomy of the "Queen" appeared in front of Irin.
Every cabin, every cannon, the caliber of the cannon … and all kinds of structures and configurations.
Rum, grain, bread, fresh water, vegetables, olive oil, lemons … all kinds of supplies.
There were also empty positions for the first mate, second mate, lookout, cook, helmsman, sailor, combatant, cleaner, gunner … and all kinds of positions.
"It's too difficult!"
Irin's expression was serious, and he could not help but spit out three words.
What Elizabeth Winter actually wanted to say was.
"It's too difficult to be a captain."
