Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 265: Odysseus's Fame in the Raging Sea (Today's th Update)
At the dock of Zaker Island, Donahue and the other three were waiting for Odysseus in a non-obstructive position.

They finally found someone willing to help them, and they were all very happy, quietly wondering whether the captain could defeat the "Deep Blue" pirate group.

At this moment, they noticed that a ship was rushing straight towards a dock not far away and witnessed the whole process of the ship colliding with it.

Someone immediately went to check on the ship. Donahue and the other three also looked over, wanting to go over and see what was happening.

But waiting for Odysseus was a more important matter, so they stood where they were and did not move.

Donahue and others saw eight distraught people appear on the deck of the ship. After rescuing them, some people boarded the ship. However, the first group of people who went up turned around and vomited into the sea after just one look.

"It's all dead bodies!" After spitting a few times, someone finally shouted to the people below: "It's all dead bodies! The bodies of the 'Red Lion' pirates!"

The dock suddenly became chaotic. Everyone asked their questions and pulled up the eight people who were sitting on the dock in a daze, asking them what was going on.

Soon someone learned the truth from the survivors and shouted, "'Red Lion' Taylor is dead! He was killed by a pirate group he had never seen before!"

Everyone was in an uproar again. Donahue asked the people around him who were watching the excitement and found out that the "Red Lion" was actually a "big pirate". This pirate group was also very strong, and it was said that there were more than 300 people in it.

At this time, someone shouted again: "The storm is coming! If you are not blind, look at the pattern on the sail."

Donahue also noticed the pattern. The main body of the pattern was an open eye, with an upright sword behind it, and behind the sword was a hexagram.

He turned his head suddenly and looked at the flags on the "Argo". The upper flag had a light behind the eyes, and the lower flag was a combination of eyes, swords and hexagrams!
The dock suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Everyone saw the pattern on the sails, and since they were not blind, they also saw the "Argo" docked at another dock and the flag on that ship.

Of the eight people who were rescued from the ship, three fainted from fright after seeing the Argo, and four were shaking so much that they could not even stand.

Another one started crying and laughing, he was crazy.

Who killed Taylor? Who destroyed the Red Lion pirates?

There is no need to ask anymore.

Donahue breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that the captain of the "Argo" had the ability to drive away the "Deep Blue" pirate group.

……

On the other side of the dock, the drunkard with red nose who had just had several of his back teeth knocked out by Odysseus was stunned by the scene and immediately sobered up.

That fair-skinned young man with a leather bag tied around his waist really dealt a heavy blow... no, he wiped out the "Red Lion" pirate group!

The next second, he turned around abruptly and stumbled towards the passenger terminal.

He knew very well that he had offended the young man in the bar just now and might not be able to see tomorrow's sunrise alive.

We must escape quickly!

But after taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and quickly started running towards the road inside the city.

The passenger ship will not leave until tomorrow, and it will be very dangerous for him to wait at the dock before then.

It’s better to hide in the village first, and then come back quietly tomorrow morning before the boat sets sail.

……

In a bar not far from the pier.

Odysseus drank the last sip of wine slowly, then glanced coldly at the surprised customers and walked out of the bar.

squeak~
The moment the bar door closed, the patrons immediately began a heated discussion.

It’s hard to believe that this is actually true!

This young man actually killed Taylor!

A new "big pirate" has arrived on this sea!
……

Odysseus hurried to the dock. The onlookers had just started talking about the fun, but after seeing Odysseus, the dock fell into an eerie silence again.

Seeing the ship that was about to fall apart "docked" at the port, Odysseus smiled and waved to Donahue and the other two, indicating that they should follow.

Many people looked at Odysseus with fear in their eyes, while others looked at him with eagerness and admiration. They all watched Odysseus come to the "Argo" and saw him jump suddenly and jump onto the deck of the ship.

At this time, Second Officer Rupert ordered the "Extraordinary Puppet" to lower the gangway to allow Donahue and others to board the ship.

Then, the "Argo" raised anchor and set sail.

At this time, everyone started to discuss actively again, and everyone was guessing how strong this young man was.
Then they heard the whole process of the attack from the ears of the survivors, and the more they listened, the more confused they became.

A massive explosion that could destroy a large ship? A cannon that could fire continuously?

In the end, they concluded that these survivors must have been scared silly to say such strange things.

……

On board the Argo.

As soon as Odysseus boarded the ship, he gave the order: "Go to the island of Tirinus!"

When the Argo left the harbor, Odysseus gave another order: "Four ships forward! Head for Dillinus overnight!"

Then, he asked the two students to be on duty in the cockpit, and asked the other three students to look after Donahue and the other three. He said they were looking after Donahue and the others, but in fact they were just monitoring them.

However, there was no real need for this. After getting on board, Donahue and the other two did not dare to make any unnecessary movements, because they discovered that the crew members who appeared to be wearing masks under the ship were actually puppets!
There were only a few living people on the ship. Fear and anxiety filled the hearts of these three people. They did whatever the three navigation trainees asked them to do.

Odysseus called Elijah and Rupert to the conference room for a meeting.

Bazel did not board the ship immediately.

Odysseus gave him two days off and would come to pick him up after he received the bounty from the navy.

In the conference room, Odysseus also told Rupert about his idea of building a base on Cruz Island.

Rupert was delighted to hear this: "I will definitely build a big house on the base when the time comes, and do nothing but lie in an easy chair and bask in the sun while I'm renovating it."

Odysseus smiled and said, "When the time comes, I'm afraid you won't be able to be so free."

Then, he explained that before building the base, they had to defeat the "Deep Blue" pirate group first.

Rupert did not feel much pressure about this. After seeing the strength of the "Argo", it was difficult for him to feel pressured to deal with enemies at the "big pirate" level.

"Just the few of us aren't enough," Odysseus said. "The battle for the island with the pirates is even more complicated. We need to recruit more crew members."

Yi Laizhe smiled and said, "It's good that you didn't underestimate the enemy."

Then he said seriously, "The battle with the Red Lion pirates was so easy because we were on a battlefield that was favorable to us and we were using new weapons.

"But it's different if you're fighting pirates for an island. They're not gentlemen, and they don't have any chivalry.

"They are likely to attack at night and land somewhere we can't see. With only one ship, it will be difficult to intercept them on the sea."

Although the old navigator rarely participated in battles, he knew a lot about pirates.

Odysseus nodded and said, "We need at least three more helpers to help us organize the locals and perform tasks such as sentry duty, ambushes, and blocking."

The island was too big, and it was impossible to defend it with only three extraordinary people and one ship.

"So, I plan to go to the island of Tirinius and recruit adventurers." Odysseus smiled.
"If they perform well in the battle against the Deep Blue Pirates, they'll stay. If they don't, then... kill them."

Odysseus originally planned to "hypnotize" them so that they would forget what happened on Cruz Island and then send them back to Delinius Island.

But he thought that he was currently a pirate and he couldn't worry so much about his style of doing things.

However, those who were looked down upon by Odysseus were basically all of bad character, so they were killed.

Neither Yi Laizhe nor Rupert felt uncomfortable about this. It was not that they felt they were getting closer to pirates, but that the sea was inherently dangerous.

After briefly chatting about their plans for the next few days, Odysseus and Rupert decided on their shift schedules and then went back to rest.

After sailing all night, the Argo entered the port just as the first ray of sunlight shone on the island of Tirinius.

However, we did not enter the main port of the island, but the small port on the back of the island.

After all, this is an island on the main shipping channel. Navy ships often cruise around it, and pirate ships dare not dock in the big port openly.

However, the main islands on the main shipping routes are generally large in area and have a large population, so the locals are naturally unwilling to drive away those pirates who spend money like water.

Therefore, ports specifically for hosting pirates were built in some more secluded harbors.

As soon as they entered the harbor, Odysseus heard someone shout: "Look! That's the Argo!"

This surprised everyone on the ship. Logically speaking, the news of the defeat of the "Red Lion" pirate group should not have reached this island yet.

After getting off the boat, Odysseus inquired and found out that several merchant ships that were nearly robbed by the "Red Lion" pirates had docked at Tirinus Island yesterday and spread the news that the "Argo" had defeated the "Red Lion" pirates.

This made Odyssey very happy because it meant that he would be able to easily recruit new crew members.

However, Odysseus did not recruit people in the small port that entertained pirates because most of the people here were pirates.

Although Odysseus is also a pirate, he still hopes to recruit a few adventurers.

After letting Rupert watch the ship, Odysseus appeared at the Grand Harbor using the "Travel Ring". He first found a place to have breakfast.

The local specialty breakfast is a thin multi-grain pancake rolled with eggs, beef and onions. It tastes a bit like the egg-filled pancake in Odysseus's memory.

However, he personally felt that in the morning, the combination of beef and onions was far less delicious than the combination of shredded potatoes and tiger-skin green peppers.

After trying the local breakfast, Odysseus entered a bar which was deserted at the moment.

The bartender, who was yawning, asked lazily, "What would you like to drink?"

"Let's have a glass of local specialty beer." Odysseus said as he sat at the bar.

"Four pence," said the bartender Kyle.

Odysseus gave him 8 pence and said, "Where can I find some good sailors?"

Kyle collected the money and tip, and while pouring wine for Odysseus, he said, "You can try your luck at the 'Adventurer's House'. Captains often go there to recruit crew members. I heard that there are many powerful adventurers and pirates living there.

"But the Adventurer's Home is about two or three kilometers away from here. You'd better find a rental carriage."

"Thank you." Odysseus got his beer, which was a lighter malt beer.

He drank his beer and asked again, "What's the latest news?"

The bartender, Kyle, no longer sleepy after receiving a tip, said, "The 'Red Lion' pirate group has been wiped out. It is said that they were killed by a ship flying the 'Elemental Dawn' flag."

Odysseus nodded: "I already know about this matter."

At the same time, he thought to himself: Hanging the "Elemental Dawn" flag has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it can make the opponent wary, but the disadvantage is that the first thing people remember is the "Elemental Dawn" flag, while his own flag may not be remembered.

Kyle added, "But you may not know the details."

He smiled and said, "Yesterday, the first mate of the 'Lidis' had a drink here. He recounted the whole process of how the 'Red Lion' pirate group was wiped out."

Odysseus smiled and said, "Tell me about it."

"That ship is here to punish Taylor!" bartender Kyle swore, "The 'Mysterious Queen' must have used some magical ritual to summon that ship from the underworld.

“It is said that the crew members on that ship are the souls of those brutally killed by Taylor.

"And the weapons on that ship aren't something only found on earth. It's said that a single shot destroyed the flagship of the Red Lion pirate group.

"In addition, the ship also has cannons that can fire continuous fireballs and continuous ice. They fire the flames and severe cold from the underworld.

"Finally, the evil Taylor was stunned by the weapon from the underworld, and his neck artery was easily cut.

"The vengeful 'Argo' quickly left and disappeared into the sea."

Odysseus opened his mouth, but he didn't expect that the crew of the merchant ship had already made up such a story for him.

He then asked, "Why did the Mysterious Queen do this? If she had a grudge against the Red Lion pirates, couldn't she just destroy them herself?"

"Big shots like these are very busy!" The bartender Kyle said firmly, "Besides, the ocean is so vast, how could they have so much time to search for Taylor the Red Lion?
"By summoning Taylor's enemies from the underworld, we can easily find Taylor and eliminate him, achieving our goal.

"As for why the 'Mysterious Queen' did this? Of course, it's because she wants to uphold justice on this sea!"

Odysseus realized that the "Elemental Dawn", which had never caused massacres on the sea and liked to rob pirates and warships, generally existed in people's minds as a positive image.

At the same time, he realized that the people on the sea were very good at making up lies, and there was no way to "explode them with one poke".

Thinking of this, Odysseus took a sip of his wine and asked the bartender, "What do you think? Is what the first mate of the 'Lidis' said true?"

Kyle said talkatively, "Part of it is true. For example, I think it might really be a ship from the underworld. Otherwise, how could it spray solid ice?

"But there must be some falsehoods, such as the story about destroying the Red Lion's flagship with a single shot. That's clearly bragging."

Odysseus laughed heartily and drank the beer in his glass. "I'm not bragging about taking out the Red Lion's flagship with one shot."

The bartender Kyle was stunned: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Odysseus said, "Because I was there at the time."

After saying that, he quickly left the bar.

Kyle was stunned: "You were there too?"

But no one answered his question. Soon, another bartender, Paul, came to take over the shift. As soon as he came in, Paul said without even having time to change his clothes: "I just got some new news!"

He said, "The Argo is docked in the nearby town of Doral!"

"Storm above, that ship from the underworld?" bartender Kyle asked in surprise.

"Yes!" Paul said, "Someone saw the captain of that ship come onto the dock. He looked very young and had a leather bag tied around his waist."

Kyle's heart was suddenly filled with surprise: young... with a briefcase tied around his waist, isn't that the drunkard from before? He... he was indeed there!
……

Bayam, Rorsted Navy Headquarters.

A high-level meeting regarding the Raging Sea was quietly held here. These naval officers first discussed the current situation of the Feysac Empire Navy, and then discussed how to respond to the "Pirate Conference" that was being planned.

Finally, a naval staff officer reported some important information about the turbulent sea. The first piece of information was: "According to reliable information, the 'Red Lion' pirate group was destroyed by a ship called the 'Argo', and Taylor himself had his throat cut."

A brigadier general in his thirties with a rather long face sneered, "Another 'big pirate' has appeared?"

Another naval captain asked, "Are you planning to let him take the place of Taylor's bounty?"

"Our suggestion is not to issue a bounty on him for now," the staff officer said. "Although he flies the banner of 'Elemental Dawn', he hasn't shown sufficient malicious intent at this time.

"And Bazel Ryan seems to be working for him. We can observe him for a while."

For pirates on the sea, the more powerful they are, the higher the bounty is not necessarily. Generally speaking, among pirates of the same level, the more vicious ones will have a higher bounty, while those who just rob merchant ships but do not actively commit murder will have a relatively lower bounty.

Of course, this only applies to most pirates. For those who are as powerful as "Pirate General", the bounty will be very high even if they do nothing.

For example, Vice Admiral Iceberg spends most of her time searching for treasure, but her bounty is still as high as 26000 pounds.

The staff officer paused and continued, "According to eyewitnesses at the scene, there seemed to be a weapon similar to a machine gun on the Argo.

"Everyone must be careful when they encounter this ship."

The machine gun is still a conceptual weapon and is still in the research and development stage.

As for the description of the "Lingbo Cannon", it was directly considered by the staff to be false information and was not announced at this meeting.

Soon a naval captain speculated: "That must be some kind of extraordinary weapon!"

The officers nodded one after another, all having similar guesses.

……

Port of Dillinhos, Turich Street.

Odysseus got off the carriage and glanced at the sign in front of him. "Adventurer's House" was a decent-looking hotel. Two well-dressed doormen stood at the door. Seeing Odysseus approaching the hotel, one of them quickly came forward and said, "Sir, this way."

Odysseus smiled and nodded, then followed the doorman into the hotel.

The hotel manager immediately came forward and asked, "Sir, would you like to stay at the hotel?"

It's only a little after eight in the morning, so it's unlikely that they'll come to eat at this time.

Odysseus said bluntly: "I heard that you can recruit crew members here?"

"Yes, sir." The manager smiled. "Many adventurers choose to stay at this hotel. Some of them also hope to cooperate with others and embark on an adventure on the sea together."

Odysseus smiled and nodded, thinking: This manager is quite capable. He made "joining the ranks of pirates" sound so grand, it almost seemed like pursuing poetry and distant places.

The manager politely asked Odysseus to sit on the sofa in the lobby and asked the waiter to bring tea. Then he said, "Our hotel also has this kind of service.

"If you just want to recruit people here, please pay a fee of 3 soli. You can find and negotiate with the person you want to recruit yourself.

"Of course, you can also choose the other two services. One is that you pay a fee of 1 pound, and I will invite customers who want to cooperate with me, and you can talk to them yourself.

"Another option is to pay a £10 fee and tell us your recruitment requirements. We will help you screen them and provide you with relevant information and resumes."

Odysseus said generously, "I'll pay 10 pounds."

Odysseus, who works in intelligence, knows very well the difference between the 1 pound and 10 pound services.

As for the option of 3 Soler services, he simply did not consider it because his time was limited and he did not have the energy to observe and choose here.

Taking out his wallet, Odysseus immediately paid 10 pounds in cash.

The manager then invited Odysseus into a reception room and asked, "Sir, which ship are you from? Are you the captain or the first mate?"

"The Argo, Captain," Odysseus replied simply.

The manager was visibly stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your resume will make it easy for you to recruit crew members. I think all the customers who live here will want to join the Argonaut."

Odysseus smiled and nodded slowly, his first impression of the manager improving slightly. He didn't ask stupid questions like "Did you kill the Red Lion pirates?" nor did he make any comments, simply stating the facts.

This is a very smart and more professional approach.

After asking about Odysseus's request, the manager served Earl Grey tea again, as well as fruits and snacks. Then the manager went to organize the information according to Odysseus's request.

Odysseus's requirement for managers is: extraordinary people with no bad records.

More than 20 minutes later, the manager came back to the reception room and said, "Based on your selection, we have found five candidates for you. Would you like to meet them all together or one by one?"

Odysseus said, "Let's meet separately."

"Let me first briefly introduce these people." The manager said: "Mr. Boris Caesar is very good at fighting. He once hunted a pirate with a bounty of 1100 pounds. He was once a well-known adventurer in the waters of Oravi Island.

"But he always likes to hurt people with his words. Because he offended a 'big pirate', he had to flee to the island of Trinius."

Odysseus nodded and thought: Judging from his strength and style, he is very likely a "provocative".

The manager continued, "Mr. Beavis Bing is a sharpshooter and a traveling scholar, not an adventurer.

"He has said more than once that he really wants to visit the eastern part of the Sonia Sea.

"His requirements for an employer are that he has knowledge of the occult, is gentle and polite, and doesn't like to swear."

Odysseus smiled and said: If this guy is not crazy, he should be a Sequence 7, otherwise he would not make any request to the captain.

"Mr. Cleveland Gale is also very good at fighting." The manager continued to introduce: "He is usually taciturn, but he is a very good person. When someone asks him for help, he rarely refuses.
“If he sees someone being bullied, he will sometimes offer to help.

"Ms. Salina Kelly is a skilled fighter and a straightforward person, but she has a short temper. She was recently defrauded and is currently struggling financially.

"Miss Noy Vera's fighting skills are average. She's very good at using a revolver, but she prefers fortune-telling to fighting, and her predictions are quite accurate."

Odysseus said, "Please let them in in the order you specified."

"Okay." said the manager.

He turned and asked Boris Caesar to come in, a bearded man in his thirties.

The guy started complaining the moment he walked in: "We're not going to work in a factory, but it's like a job interview."

He looked at Odysseus and asked, "Is your ship short of people?"

Odysseus thought that this guy must have digested the "Provocateur" potion well. His question just now seemed to be a normal question, but the combination of his expression and body movements made him look like he deserved a beating.

It's just that he doesn't seem to be able to control his abilities and doesn't know how to restrain himself.

Odysseus pointed to the chair opposite him and said, "Please sit down."

Boris didn't sit down, but asked: "I'd like to know what I can get if I join your pirate group?"

Odysseus smiled and said, "I happen to have the main ingredient for the 'Arsonist' potion here."

Boris took a deep breath and immediately sat down opposite Odysseus: "Can I join your pirate group?"

"Let me think about it." Odysseus said, "Please come in, sir."

He didn't really want this guy to join the pirate group, or rather, he didn't like having a guy around who could make him angry at any time.

Boris quickly said, "I can make traps and I'm also good at fighting. Don't worry, as long as I join the pirate group, my ability to irritate people will only be used on the enemy."

Odysseus thought to himself: You are quite adaptable.

But he still said: "Please come in, sir."

Boris sighed in disappointment, "Okay, okay."

This isn't the first time his provocative abilities have gone bad.

Soon a young man in his twenties, dressed in formal attire, came in. He really looked like an interviewer: "Hello."

Odysseus nodded and said, "Hello, please sit down."

Beavis Bing said: "I heard from the manager that you need an assistant on your ship?"

"Yes," Odysseus said, "I want to state in advance that I am the captain of a pirate ship."

"Your choice of words is the most appropriate of all the pirates I have ever met." Beavis smiled and said, "You should have heard my request."

Odysseus smiled and said, "Well, I think I am barely an expert in the field of mysticism."

"Then let's discuss a question." Beavis said, "Why do you think 'divination' is not unique to fortune-tellers? Why do all spiritually advanced Beyonders practice 'divination'?"

Odysseus raised his eyebrows. The fact that he could ask this question showed that he did have some research in mysticism: "That's because of the connection between the spirit world and spirituality.

“In the spiritual world, there is no concept of time; the past, present, and future can all be found there.

"The process of 'divination' is when Beyonders use their spirituality to search the spiritual world for information about the future.

"So as long as one's spirituality is high, one can establish sufficient connections with the spirit world and find sufficient clues from the spirit world to complete divination."

Beavis said with satisfaction: "Your answer is great!"

"Also, I understand why the divinations of the Diviner are more accurate than those of other channels," Odysseus said. "After reaching the 'High Sequence' state, this channel possesses a certain authority in the spirit world. This allows them to have a stronger affinity with the spirit world even at the 'Low Sequence' state, resulting in more accurate divination results."

Beavis opened his mouth: "This...this is information I don't know."

Odysseus spread his hands and said, "Mysticism is a very profound subject."

Beavis took a deep breath and said, "Please let me join your pirate group."

Odysseus stood up, and Beavis quickly stood up as well. The two shook hands, and Odysseus said, "You will be the third mate on the Argo."

Beavis smiled and said, "It seems that I am lucky. I can become the third mate as soon as I get on board."

Odysseus smiled and said, "Go back and pack your things and wait for me in the hall."

He had already guessed that this should be a Sequence 7 "Appraiser" from the "Generalist" path. The other party also has an ability similar to the "Eye of Prying Mysteries", but the "vision" of the Beyonders from the two paths is enhanced in different directions.

Next, Odysseus met with Cleveland Gale, who was about 8 meters tall and dressed very simply. Thinking of the information provided by the manager before, Odysseus guessed that this should be a Sequence "Fighter" of the "Warrior" path.

After communicating for a while, Odysseus felt that the other party was a loyal and reliable person. It was not easy for such a person to survive to Sequence 8 in the Raging Sea, so Odysseus decided to make him the battle captain and asked him to pack his luggage and prepare to set off.

The fourth one is Salina Kelly. She looks to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with the dark skin of the locals of the Rorsted Islands. She looks okay, but her voice is a bit loud.

She didn't have the bad temper that the manager said, and she took the initiative to introduce her specialties: diving and fighting.

Odysseus had a good impression of her, and since she was the Beyonder of the Sailor Path he had always coveted, Odysseus asked one final question: "Can you obey my orders at all times and in all places?"

I was afraid that the "sailor" would get angry and disobey my orders.

"I will obey your combat orders," Salina said, "but don't try to take advantage of me. With your small size, I'll have to hold you down in bed.

"If you have such thoughts, you are bringing shame upon yourself."

Odysseus smiled and said, "Don't worry about that."

Salina was stunned for a moment: "Why do I feel insulted when you say that?"

Odysseus laughed heartily. "My ship is still short of a boatswain. I think you are very suitable for that position."

Salina's eyes lit up: "That's great, I've always wanted to be a boatswain..."

She rubbed her hands and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Um, before that, can I ask you for a favor?"

"You say." said Odysseus.

"Help me settle the room and meal fees here... uh, um, I will pay you back later." Salina said with a somewhat evasive look.

Odysseus said cheerfully, “No problem.

"Okay, you can go pack your things. We'll meet in the hotel lobby."

Afterwards, Odysseus called the manager over and said, "I will only recruit three crew members this time. The three I just mentioned are very suitable, so there is no need to keep the fifth one waiting.

"I'm deeply sorry for wasting their time. Here are two bottles of herbal powder. Please pass them to them on my behalf."

Those were two bottles of dragon's tooth powder. It was not very expensive, but it was widely used in various mystical rituals. Odysseus also carried two small bottles with him.

If the essential oil is used up, you can dissolve the dragon's tooth grass powder with water and use it to draw magic circles.

“You are a very thoughtful gentleman,” the manager praised.

Over the years, there have been few employers, or pirate captains, as thoughtful as Odysseus.

Odysseus smiled and said nothing.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a woman wearing glasses, in her twenties, dressed very dignifiedly and maturely, came in. "Hello, I would like to take the initiative to introduce myself."

The manager introduced: "This is Miss Noy Vera..."

He was about to tell Noy that the captain no longer needed help, but Noy spoke up first: "I know. I just did some divination. It seems that I won't have the chance to meet the captain today."

Odysseus smiled and asked, "Then why did you come in on your own initiative?"

He thought to himself: "What a great way to design divination inscriptions!" Divination inscriptions related to oneself generally yield more accurate results.

"It was precisely because of that prediction that I was able to get in," Noy said. "Because I had predicted earlier that this recruitment was very important to me, I still hope to fight for it."

Odysseus asked, "You trust your divination results so much that you don't have any doubts?"

"Of course." Noi was stunned for a moment before answering. She paused and said, "But you can't be superstitious, because I've found that the final outcome of things can develop in the direction I envision through my own efforts."

Odysseus asked again: "Are you from Intis?"

"No," Noy felt even more puzzled by this question. "I'm from Loen, from Wintershire."

Odysseus pressed the issue, "Could you please tell me where you got the potion formula?"

Noy hesitated for a moment before answering, "I found it among my father's belongings."

Odysseus continued, "So, if I'm not mistaken, your last name should be Antigonus?"

Noi opened her mouth in surprise, but quickly forced herself to calm down: "Can I not answer this question?"

"I understand." Odysseus said, "If you want to come to my ship, you can only be an ordinary crew member."

Noy breathed a sigh of relief: "No problem."

"Go pack your bags," said Odysseus.

In this case, only Boris lost the election, and there is nothing that can be done about it, because he obviously cannot control his ability to "provoke".

Noi's problem is that she doesn't understand the true meaning of "fortune teller", but she is very good at using her abilities.

Boris, on the other hand, is obviously always limited by his own abilities, so relatively speaking, his problems are bigger.

Odysseus settled Salina's room and meal bills with the manager and was about to leave with the four crew members when the "provocative" Boris quickly caught up and said, "Sir, please let me join your team."

Odysseus said, "As you can see, I have already recruited four crew members, which has exceeded my expectations."

"I don't have to share the spoils with everyone," Boris said. "I will always be at the forefront of every battle."

Odysseus shook his head: "You don't understand the point."

Boris thought for a moment and immediately said, "I will control my abilities and try not to use them on you or the crew."

Odysseus looked at the other person, then smiled at the manager and said, "You're quite good at selecting people."

These five people all suit Odysseus's taste.

The manager smiled and said, “This is what we should do.”

But Odysseus still ignored Boris, and took the other four crew members to a restaurant for dinner. He announced in the private room that there would be a fierce battle soon, and if they wanted to withdraw, they still had a chance.

If you decide to join your own pirate group, it will not be easy to quit.

At this point, of course no one will quit.

During lunch, everyone introduced themselves in more detail, including their pathways and sequences.

Just as Odysseus guessed, Beavis is a Sequence 7 "Appraiser", Cleveland is a Sequence 8 "Fighter", Salina is a Sequence 9 "Sailor", and Noy is a Sequence 9 "Fortune Teller".

After lunch, Odysseus and others found that Boris was still waiting outside.

Odysseus still ignored him, but waved to call a rented carriage, and several people took the carriage to the nearby port of Roll Town.

Boris followed behind. When they got off the carriage, Odysseus glanced at Boris and waved at him: "Since you are so insistent, then come on board. However, you are not a formal crew member yet."

"Okay, okay." Boris smiled and said, "You are the most generous captain I have ever met."

Beavis and others who had lived in the "Adventurer's House" for a while were all stunned: it turns out that this guy can speak human language.

After everyone was aboard, Odysseus announced, "Set sail! Full speed to Cruz Island!"

……

Thursday morning, Bayam.

Klein, who had received a commission from the Fat Pharmacist and was escorting him, heard the newsboy shout, "Extra Edition! Extra Edition! The 'Great Pirate' Taylor was killed. Was it revenge? Or was it for justice?"
