Iron Anchor Bay, Sailors & Cats Bar.

Outside the door is a small square facing the anchorage of the port, whether it is a ship sailing or arriving at the port, you can see it here for the first time.

As a result, many free pirates are attracted to wait here with a glass of the cheapest ale.

Expect to be able to board a powerful pirate ship and write your own legend.

Gradually, the bar also began to work part-time as a human resource agency.

Match pirate ships that are short of sailors, sailors who have lost their pirate ships, and newcomers who are eager to venture out to sea.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the square, and someone shouted:

"Hurry, hurry! Brothers, go to Pier 2, the first mate of the [Beast Cage] is recruiting crews, and this is a rare opportunity.

It was the pirate ship of Councillor Ferdinand, the Captain's Council.

If we can get on the ship of this third-order pirate, we'll be rich!" ”

"I've heard that these pirates have more than one transcendent sequence of pre-knowledge and promotion ceremonies in their hands.

Not only is there a lot of money, but there is also a chance to become extraordinary.

We don't have talent in one sequence, maybe we can do the other? ”

"Wait for me, I'll go too!"

"I'm going too..."

The pirates, who thought they had two brushes, all drank the cheap ale from their glasses in one gulp, patted their butts, and rushed out.

After a while, Pier 2 was full of people.

It's a pity that they gather quickly, and they are not slow to disperse.

The pirates had to replenish their staff, and the requirements for the crew were far higher than they thought.

It's similar to modern recruitment, without glamorous academic qualifications and resumes, large companies won't even give interviews and will be eliminated directly.

Most of them obviously don't have this kind of thing.

"Alas!"

A young man in his early twenties, with a pair of daggers at his waist, sat back down on the stone steps of the small square, somewhat lonely.

Ordinary figure, ordinary face, the kind that can't be found in the pile.

In great distress, he put his hands in his hair, and even the shadow he cast on the ground seemed a little dim.

"The 887th attempt, again failed.

When will I be able to go to sea and become a real pirate? ”

The mood was so sad that I couldn't help but wail.

provoked the other pirates in the vicinity to avoid it, so as not to contaminate him.

In addition to pirates, Iron Anchor Bay is also inhabited by a large number of ordinary Northland baypeople, and it is said that even the name of the bay people can be traced back to Iron Anchor Bay.

Unlike pirates who wander from land, they may have worked in a variety of occupations before going to sea.

For generations, the people of Northland Bay have adhered to the tradition of "cruising at sea" as the highest profession and honor.

The successive defeats were clearly a huge blow to this standard young Wandman.

At this time, a big hand suddenly slapped the young man's shoulder, and a voice as rough as a rock sounded in his ears:

"Gerry, it's so you're here, if you hadn't suddenly shouted, I would have almost lost you again."

Immediately, a middle-aged man with a large beard sat down beside him.

Looking at the lonely appearance of the young man, he couldn't help but comfort:

"Listen to me, Green, your talent is definitely the most I've ever seen... Uh, unique.

That's right, it's unique!

The only reason you failed on a pirate ship was because you didn't use that talent in the right place.

If you don't choose to go to sea, but go to some bustling big city on the Old World to be a thief.

I'm sure you'll be one of those super thieves who will go down in history!

Don't you dream of getting rich? Think about it, being a thief is also a promising job. ”

The man was the owner of the Sailor and Cat Bar, an old pirate who had already saved up enough fortune and successfully retired.

Obviously, the relationship with the youth is not bad.

Although as a pirate people, this value is not quite right from the root.

The young man thought of his talent, and a bright color appeared in his eyes, but it immediately dimmed again.

Turning his head to look at the old pirate, he said with a serious face:

"Uncle John, thank you for caring about me.

Actually, I don't like money, what I really like is freedom and dignity!

It's just that money brings freedom and dignity. ”

As the song sings in "The Call of Valhalla": "I am a shield and a spear, sharing weal and woe, plundering mortal enemies." ”

Northland Gulf, a tribe entrenched in Iron Anchor Bay and the Eternal Night Peninsula, had always believed in a primitive religion and had not converted to the Church like the Hattings branch.

I firmly believe that it is glorious to rob mortal enemies in blood and fire, but it is a shame to steal ordinary people.

Although he loves money, he has his own set of principles, even if he is a thief, he has a way.

"Uncle, I think most of a person's confidence comes from economic strength.

I hope that one day in the future, when I need money, I can breathe a sigh of relief and say that it is good to have money.

Instead of sighing helplessly and saying that it would be nice to have money. ”

When he said this, the young man's words paused, continued to look at the man beside him, and corrected very seriously:

"Also, Uncle John, my name is Gus, not Gerry, and I am not called Green."

The man smiled awkwardly and withdrew his hand.

In fact, it is not because of how forgetful he is, but there is a talent in Gus, which can also be said to be a disease.

- Born without a sense of existence!

Except for his mother, everyone else will subconsciously ignore his presence, and sometimes turn a blind eye even when they see it head-on.

When I was young, it didn't affect my life, but as I got older, it got worse.

Until a few years ago, the only one who would not ignore his mother, because there was no money for treatment after death.

The "condition" has even worsened to the extent that even if an acquaintance is in the blink of an eye, he will completely forget about him as a person.

Although he had good assassin skills, he was forgotten on the battlefield by his companions more than once, and the spoils of war were naturally out of reach.

Boss John, as their old neighbor, is already one of the few people who still remembers him.

Of course, Gus also tried to save himself, and it was useless to find the good ship doctor on many pirate ships.

It wasn't until the end that I learned from a Prophet of the Tower Sequence.

He was born with the awakening of the [Assassin] profession's [Shielding Existence], but in the process of growing up, he accidentally lost his only one...

Not only can you not become a transcendent being, but it is not even necessary that you will suddenly disappear into this world one day.

Unless you find someone who can always remember him, it will be possible to get everything back on track.

"By the way, I'm here mainly to remind you that it's time to pay your rent this month.

Young man, be sure to keep it up!

Taking advantage of the fact that there have been a lot of pirate ships coming to Iron Anchor Bay recently, try a few more times and you will definitely succeed.

Just don't forget to bring me the settling-in allowance with you.

After all, you don't want to sleep in the square tonight, do you, Des? ”

Old John gave him a big smile and turned back to the bar.

Gus was no longer able to correct his salutation.

It's just that when he heard the word "rent", his face collapsed.

Money has never been an issue, the point is that does he look like some rich man?

Gus's desire now is simple and urgent.

I just want to find a captain who won't forget him by accident, so that he can move to live on the ship.

It's better that this captain is still rich!

"O god of prophecy, kingship, and the hunt, give me a rich captain!"

Just as Gus was helplessly praying, he suddenly heard the sound of two people talking behind him.

"Strange, what's going on in Iron Anchor Bay lately?

Yesterday when we were passing through here.

The same members of the Captain's Council are hiring, it seems that it is [Butcher Bird] Morrison's [Piercing Thorn], and [Redbeard] Edward's [Nemesis].

Today it has become the [Beast Cage] of [Conductor] Ferdinand.

All of them are mid-order transcendents of the third order and above.

Looking at the pirate flags flying on the ships in the harbor, it was obvious that many famous pirate captains had also come together.

None of these guys have anything to do to hijack ships, and they all come here to live? ”

"That's right, Captain, isn't this bullying us honest people? robbed all the excellent crew members to be recruited by the [Golden Deer]. ”

Gus turned his head and saw two figures, one in front of him and one behind him, walking in his direction.

Coincidentally, the guy in front of him was really wearing a triangular captain's hat!
