Chapter 48: Recruiting the First Navigator
The atmosphere in the room was a little dreary for a while.
Raymond looked at Anna with reddish eyes,
I don't know if it's an illusion,
I always felt that the way she looked at her was a little weird.
And...
To his surprise, the system inexplicably prompted an increase in favorability?
At this time,
A bold idea popped into Raymond's mind.
The nightmare ghost is all too familiar to him,
It's not difficult to get in and out safely.
If the "ancient weapon" that Anna said is really as powerful as the legend says,
Wouldn't it be easy for her to get revenge?
Maybe you can accomplish a feat that no player in the previous game has done...
Recruit Redhead Anna!
And if you do recruit successfully,
Not only is it possible for him to recruit a high-ranking navigator,
It can even come with a super awesome "ancient weapon"?
Raymond felt that the feasibility of the plan was high.
After thinking about it, he asked tentatively, "Mentor Anna, that... If everything goes according to the Black Sea, what are you going to do in the future? ”
Hearing this question,
Anna's eyebrows frowned slightly,
Fell silent.
It seems that he never thought about what he would do if he succeeded in revenge...
To be a queen?
No, I don't want to.
Anna thought for a while, with a hint of confusion in her eyes, and said slowly: "I am the only one left in the Campbell family, and everything is in the past." I just want to take revenge and overthrow the 'Rosa regime'..."
Raymond continued to steer the conversation, "What about after revenge?" ”
"I..."
Anna was visibly stunned, her crystal eyes swaying, and her heart was obviously fluctuating.
After a while, she said again: "I didn't think about it..."
Anna has been on the run for more than a decade, and it is not easy to get revenge.
Perhaps, he will not survive the nightmare ghost at all.
Revenge successful?
Elusive...
Raymond felt that there was a play, and finally asked about the key words,
"Mentor Anna... Do you have any dreams other than revenge? ”
This is the key dialogue of Anna's Ring mission in the game.
So, he knew what she would answer.
This question is the perfect place to start.
Because
Every navigator's dream is the sea of stars.
"Dreams?"
Anna heard the word,
The expression was in a trance,
I seem to have had a dream...
At this moment,
A gleam flashed in her eyes,
Suddenly it was as if I saw the end of the distant world,
The place where dreams are buried,
Presumably the flowers have bloomed into the ocean.
Thinking of this, Anna's eyes suddenly sparkled and were full of yearning.
She muttered to herself, "Maybe I'll find a ship to go out to sea and be a great adventurer like my ancestors, and see the scenery at the end of this world." ”
Anna was immersed in a fantasy of anticipation.
"Ouch, what a coincidence! The world is so big, I want to see it too. ”
With a flattering smile on his face, Raymond finally said what was in his heart.
"Mentor Anna, if I can, I'll go to sea in the future... Can I invite you to be my navigator? ”
"You're going to go on an adventure?"
Hearing this, the smile finally returned to Anna's face.
Raymond nodded, with a serious expression, and said, "Of course... Even if it's a nightmare ghost, I'd like to accompany you to see it. ”
The Black Sea is too small after all, and he wants to complete Hayens's SSS obsession mission, and is destined to conquer the Endless Sea.
Hearing this,
Anna covered her mouth and chuckled, and touched Raymond's head as if she cared for a child,
"What an amazing dream..."
She hadn't set out to take Raymond to death in that dangerous sea.
"Giggles... If you want to be my captain, you have to be a hero like One Piece 'Delos'... Raymond, you still need to work hard! ”
One Piece?
Playing so big?
Raymond pursed his mouth, feeling very uncomfortable being touched on the head, and said quietly: "Hmm... I mean, what if. ”
"Do you really think so?"
Anna blinked,
The little man in front of him didn't look like he was joking.
Raymond nodded and replied with a serious face, "Really." ”
Hearing this answer,
Anna's eyes twitched,
She restrained the smile on her face,
Staring into Raymond's eyes,
At that moment,
She seemed to see the stars in his eyes.
......
It's been a long time,
Anna tilted her head with a serious look,
"That's... If you're serious..."
Silent for a moment,
The corners of Anna's mouth lifted slightly, and she said happily.
"Then I'll promise you! When my affairs are over, and you want to go to sea as a hero of the world, I will be your navigator! ”
"It's a deal."
"It's a deal!"
But think about it,
Raymond felt that something was wrong.
It seems that the road after crossing is gradually starting to go crooked.
Damn, I must be floating!
Now it's only a sequence 9 minion,
He dared to think about being the king of the pirates!
......
Sincere! Sincere! Sincere!
"Teacher Anna, are you there?"
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
When Anna heard the voice, she frowned slightly, revealing a touch of disgust and helplessness.
Apparently heard who was outside the door.
"Do you have a friend looking for?"
Raymond panicked and asked, "Should I hide?" ”
"Hide?"
She looked at Raymond, who looked like he had been caught raped in bed and looked panicked, and suddenly her eyes rolled.
"Nope! No! ”
She asked with a wicked smile, "Raymond, since you are a disciple of Grandpa Bell, you will definitely protect me?" ”
"Hmm... Probably. ”
Raymond's eyelids jumped,
Seeing her squinting and smiling like a fox, I had a bad premonition.
"Surely you wouldn't mind doing me a favor?"
"This... Probably, right? ”
Got a positive answer,
A triumphant smile rose at the corner of Anna's mouth,
She took her wallet and put it on her coat.
He got up and walked to the door.
Raymond didn't have the heart to savor the flashing and majestic scenery in front of him,
Instead, he looked down at his bath towel wrapped in his dress, and his eyelids jumped.
"What's the situation? She really wasn't going to tell me to shy away? ”
I am now in this shape,
How do you look like the old king next door who has committed a crime?
......
There was a conversation outside the door.
Anna seemed to deliberately block the door,
There is no intention of inviting the doorman into the house.
"Oh, Anna-sensei, it's great that you're here... Today, I heard from the dean that you are sick and on leave, so I came to see you..."
Listen to the voice,
Raymond was probably impressed.
The courteous man outside the house,
It seems to be Dunn, the swordsmanship instructor of the academy's elite class,
One of Anna's avid suitors.
A guy who looks like Big Brother Broken Water.
A handsome and elegant aristocratic baron in appearance, the youngest sword instructor in the academy.
But
Anna doesn't seem to be very cold to him,
There was a politeness in his tone that rejected people thousands of miles away.
"Oh, Mr. Dunn, thank you for the flowers..."
"Oh my God! This is the latest "Black Sea Chart" drawn by the Wangdu Military Machinery Department? Thank you so much for the gift. ”
"No, no, no, it's not convenient to invite you in, but there are friends in the house today."
......
Raymond probably listened to a few words and understood what Anna was going to do.
No wonder she doesn't want to avoid herself,
I think it's deliberate.
"Teacher Anna, I heard that you have a lot of rare books on navigation, and it just so happens that I have been studying navigation recently, and there are many things I don't understand that I still need to ask you for advice. Everyone is a college teacher, so it's convenient to come into the house and communicate..."
Dunn, who was at the door, didn't believe that there was anyone else in Anna's room, and half-pushed and half-squeezed into the door.
Dunn smiled and pushed the door in, with a hint of obscene anticipation in his eyes.
But when he came in,
When I saw Raymond,
The smile stopped abruptly.
Especially when he saw Raymond naked and only wrapped in a bath towel,
His face became as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
What the... Circumstance?
Still... Is there really anyone?
Dunn rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing.
Although there are a lot of people in the academy who pursue Teacher Anna,
But he's never heard of her really having a relationship with anyone,
I didn't even know who Anna had invited to spend the night in the apartment.
But what is the situation now...
What do you see?
She actually hid a man in the house?!
And the only bed in the room obviously has traces of not being cleaned up, like it took a night of tossing to get up?
was hit in front of the "adulterous relationship",
Instead of being embarrassed, Anna bent her eyebrows and smiled happily.
She pretended to be apologetic and said, "Oh, Mr. Dunn, I'm so sorry. I have friends here, and it is really inconvenient for me to discuss navigation with you today. Or, another day? ”
Raymond's expression was calm, and he didn't have the consciousness of being "caught in bed" at all.
He doesn't explain, he doesn't panic,
Instead, he gave Dunn an illusion,
That hateful and calm look seems to speak,
"Don't be cranky... Yes, yes, yes... My relationship with Anna is exactly what you see! ”
......
The two men looked at each other like this,
Dunn turned his head and retracted his foot.
Crash through this situation,
No matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't stay here.
"Teacher Anna, since you really have friends, then... Forget it today. ”
Dunn's eyes were burning with jealousy, and there was no trace of respect or courtesy in his tone.
Hum!
Pretending to be tall, it turns out that there is no difference between the coquettish girls in the tavern.
Bichi!
"Don't send it!"
Anna shrugged,
I don't mean to explain it at all,
The door closed with a "snap".
