Volume 1 The Beginning of Everything Chapter 28 Teague Sparrow
"Welcome aboard my precious Black Pearl, my lovely new crew, and the shining gold coins and unrestrained freedom beckons to you starting today." A slouchy but charismatic voice rang out from the shadows of the hall, and a tall man in a captain's hat emerged from the darkness as a cowhide boot slowly emerged from the shadows. He had a smoky black mist around his eyes, a slightly upturned mustache under his tall nose, and some decorations hung on the sides of his hair tied in braids.
"My name is Teague Sparrow, and you should call me Captain Teague. I don't like to oppress my crew and deprive them of their freedom. No one can deprive others of their freedom for no reason, and that is the most valuable thing for every man, and for all women. Teague smiled charmingly, reaching out and tapping his fingers lightly on the tabletop. All you have to do is simply be loyal to the Black Pearl, and to the Pirate Code. ”
As his gaze swept towards him, Liao Yu suddenly felt that gaze seemed to penetrate his body, immersed in his own soul, and in a trance, he once again felt the feeling of separation of soul and body like the previous world.
The shadow in the cabin was like a deep black hole, Liao Yu only felt that he couldn't have any thoughts of resisting, and his soul gradually detached from his body, and he could only be swallowed by this shadow little by little......
"Whew!"
Liao Yu, who was in the crew room, sat up suddenly, and his gaze swept over the entire cabin with cold sweat on his back. In the dim light of the oil light, the crew had already fallen asleep. Even if it is a quasi-legendary battleship, the Black Pearl, only the officers can enjoy the treatment of a separate lounge.
In the evening, Liao Yu and the new crew finally met the true owner of the ship, the Pirate King of the Caribbean - Teague Sparrow. Although this meeting was only a few minutes, it left a deep enough soul memory for these new crew members. If it weren't for the information of the next mission from Yan Yin, Liao Yu felt that he would probably be like the rest of the crew in this world, and he would have maintained a state of despair before climbing into the hammock.
"Explorer A12333 has become a regular crew member of the Black Pearl, and the mission has been updated."
"Mission content: Before the Black Pearl reaches its destination, hunt two special sea creatures, a common sea monster. During the voyage, the Explorer must participate in the battle to protect the Black Pearl, and must not do anything harmful to the Black Pearl. The completion of the mission is judged by the extent of the damage of the Black Pearl itself and the Teague Pirate King forces on its ship, and the loser will be deducted 2000 or more universal coins depending on the situation, or directly wiped out. ”
The moment he received the task, Liao Yu immediately smelled an unusual smell from the task. According to the rumors he heard from others, Teague Sparrow is known as the only pirate king among the pirate kings who can match the "Viking Behemoth" David Jones, who will come to him for trouble?
Just as Liao Yu woke up, a voice beckoned to Liao Yu from the side of the boat.
"You're awake too?"
"Well, I woke up suddenly."
Liao Yu looked up at the figure standing at the window of the cabin, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.
Before receiving Captain Teague's order to enter the cabin this afternoon, he had no idea that he would meet an acquaintance here, the explorer Raphael who had just fought him!
"You can't sleep either?" Liao Yu got up and walked to the position next to Raphael.
"How can you sleep in this environment?" Raphael glanced at the rows of hammocks behind him, his face undisguised with disgust. His head tilted back slightly, and the golden curls of his shawl swayed slightly, as if he couldn't stand the stench of the pirates if he got closer.
"That can't be helped, we don't have a choice, but that guy slept soundly." Liao Yu's eyes drifted to a figure in the corner.
Speaking of this person, Raphael, who has always behaved cold and indifferent, couldn't help but show a helpless smile. He shook his head, nodded to Liao Yu, and then left the cabin alone and walked to the aisle on the upper floor.
In addition to Liao Yu and the two on this ship, there is also an explorer who calls himself the Green Dragon. To Liao Yu's great surprise, this thin man did not hide his ability when he introduced himself at the beginning, and was very excited to introduce the Yanhuang Taoist talisman he had learned to Liao Yu and the two, this self-familiar appearance made Liao Yu and Raphael a little helpless for a while.
Under the influence of the two irresistible external forces of Hantang and the Pirate King, the three of them on the lonely ship soon formed a temporary alliance. During a brief conversation, Liao Yu learns that the Green Dragon has passed the test of the Black Pearl by relying on the Five Elements Water Attribute Charm that the spell specializes in, and Raphael also mentions that he has improved his reputation by saving those specific pirates, thus gaining the qualification to board the Black Pearl.
Both of them hid about the process of how they got the task prompt, and Liao Yu also skipped the matter with tacit understanding, only mentioning that he boarded the Black Pearl because of magic and medical skills. It is taboo to talk shallow and deep, especially in the environment of Hantang.
It's just that after hearing about the deeds of the two, Liao Yu felt more and more uneasy. No matter how true or false what the two said, at least the two of them boarded the Black Pearl through certain means and costs, but they were actively pulled on the Black Pearl, and the difference between them is naturally self-evident.
Thinking of this, Liao Yu couldn't help but subconsciously put his left hand on his chest, feeling the old magic book with a bronze shell under his coat. As if to reassure himself, the third mate found himself soon after the Yanyin issued the mission, bringing this magic book about 10 centimeters thick, saying that at the speed of the Black Pearl, it would take about ten days to reach the destination, and he needed to familiarize himself with the contents of the book as soon as possible in the process.
Liao Yu had already checked this magic book at the first time, and this old magic book was a little different from the magic book that Liao Yu expected. The bronze cover at the top and bottom occupies more than one-third of the thickness, and the entire book has only a dozen pages.
The content of the book is roughly divided into three parts, one part of which is all kinds of rare magical materials in this world, such as the unknown magical beast skin that Liao Yu had come into contact with in the recruitment office, and there is a clear record here that it is a kind of fur on the back of a magical beast unique to a valley in North Africa, which has a very high magical carrying capacity. The second part is a detailed explanation of the two complete magic arrays, which is the first time Liao Yu has seen a real magic array. If you can thoroughly comprehend these two magic arrays, your magic level will inevitably be greatly improved. The third part is some words like hymns and prayers, Liao Yu pondered that these seemed to need to cooperate with the power of those magic branches in the mouth of the first mate to be effective, and he tried these words a few times, but there was no feedback from his body.
Liao Yu had to be glad that the people of the Black Pearl did not test their questions about magic spells, leaning against the two mountains of Hantang and the learning and induction method of modern Chinese and foreign sages, Liao Yu used various computer software to assist in analysis, and finally sorted out these magical knowledge during this business trip, and was barely able to read the content of this book, so as not to fall to a miserable end hanging on the mast on the first day.
If you want to use the analogy of the scientific system, the basic knowledge of magic instilled in Liao Yu's memory by Hantang is similar to all the basic algorithms in mathematics, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, squarering, setting unknown equations, etc., while the subsequent curse magic and improved fireball magic are counted as ready-made formulas that can be directly applied.
Theoretically speaking, relying on the complete magic foundation system given by Hantang, Liao Yu is certain to be able to deduce most of the magic spells on his own, even including forbidden spell magic, but it is difficult to say whether he can complete this feat in his lifetime.
The more he studied this magical knowledge, the more Liao Yu was able to understand those predecessors who had buried their lives in magic, and this was a completely new path that was no less than the existing science!
"If I can take these back and hand them over to the research institute, I may not have to worry about the permission value again."
Liao Yu secretly thought in his heart, and reached out to knock on the pitch-black hull of the ship. From the outside, this legendary warship looks exactly like an ancient wooden ship, but the pure, deep black color is like the natural color of wood, and there is no trace of paint to be seen. In addition to the metal-like hard and smooth texture of the palm, there is also a faint hint of toughness and warmth.
I don't know what it would be like if such magic were applied to those warships in my homeland.
