Codex Pirates

Chapter 12 Statues

All three looked at William, as if they were meeting him for the first time. They followed William in the past, perhaps only because of William's superior force compared to the three, and his more thoughtful personality compared with his peers. This time, William What is revealed is seditiousness that does not match the age of identity.

Wallon didn't know how to describe William at this time. He just felt that compared to William who was usually meticulous and calm, although the other party was uncharacteristically, he had an intimidating temperament, which made people heartbroken.

"You're right, William, and I don't want to live the old days anymore," Ajin said in a deep voice, "I used to be able to endure it until I couldn't bear it anymore, but now I'm afraid I can't bear it at all. If I go back to the past, I'm afraid I will smash the heads of those bastards with an iron rod immediately."

Aramis and Wallon did not speak, but they seemed to agree with Ajin's words. Once the taboo of killing was broken, they would not be so afraid of the existing order and law that weighed heavily on their shoulders.

William smiled slightly, and pointed to a slightly raised mound in the distance. The bodies of Denton, Gore, and Balmond were buried in it. The straightforward Wallon kindly inserted a tree branch beside the mound. Made, ridiculously crude cross:

"Then I think you should understand now why I advocate going to the dojo to learn something. I don't want to be like those low-level pirates who are chased by the navy like a homeless stray dog. It's hard enough to work hard , I don’t want to live in such desperation, or if we don’t go to sea, if we want to go to sea, we must ensure that we can gain a foothold on the sea and not be driven back to the shore again!”

...

William came to that weird and unpredictable space again in his sleep, but this time it was different from the previous few days. After he completed the task of "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth" and successfully escaped from the Denton Pirates, the space finally appeared. Variety.

In the past, it was monotonous and boring, and there was nothing but a small road surrounded by darkness, so that William sometimes suspected that there was something abnormal in the environment where he was standing still. Behind the stone arch, a small square is looming.

William hurriedly walked over, passed through the arch, and the path was shrouded in darkness just like the first intersection, and disappeared. He didn't have any interest in thinking about it anymore, and instead observed the small square where he was now.

Compared with the first intersection, where William is now, the level of improvement is obvious. The soil under his feet has become a rocky road, and the area occupied is much larger than before.

There was an antique wooden box in the southeast corner of the square. William opened the box with some anticipation. Before he could probe to see what was inside, a mirror suddenly jumped out of it and floated in front of his eyes, startling him.

He took two steps back, stared intently at the mirror that was one person tall, and then at the wooden box that was obviously only as high as his calf, and he didn't know how big the space inside the box was.

The content reflected in the mirror is not William at this time, but his body in reality, the teenager who fell asleep by the campfire.

A mirror surface that was illuminated by light from nowhere suddenly flashed. William looked again and found that his real posture in the mirror had not changed, but his body had undergone tremendous changes, and his skin and clothing had become transparent. , William walked closer to want to see more clearly, but the mirror seemed to know his mind, the picture gradually enlarged, and came close to his real body.

Countless light spots appeared in the void, gradually covering his body, especially the brain and spine, and the light spots scrambled to sink into it.

The mirror seemed to be just to show William, and before he could look any further, he put it back into the box.

William rushed to the side of the box, looked inside, and found that the inside was not what he thought before, it could be connected to other spaces, no different from ordinary wooden boxes, and the magical mirror was naturally absent.

He was still immersed in the shock caused by what he saw before, but there was a loud noise in the middle of the small square. He turned his head, and then watched a tall stone pedestal rise from the ground. The whole process took only three or four Only seconds.

On the stone pedestal stood two human statues as tall as a man. William was inexplicably astonished. Although the statues were made of ordinary rock, their appearance was a bit rough, and their faces and facial features were not clear, but he knew the movements of the statues. The lower abdomen of another struggling person, isn't this what happened when he and Denton were fighting in the sea?

There seemed to be a few lines printed in front of the stone pedestal. William hurried over and looked at it seriously:

Morgan William [unknown]

Sea calendar 1490——? ? ?

Birthplace: Donghai-Falaise Kingdom

Skills and expertise: entry-level swordsmanship

Special Feat: Lightning Reflexes

Achievement feat: down to up

...

William glanced at the four words "unknown", and then focused more on the specialties. The stone pedestal seemed to feel his gaze, and a line of small characters slowly appeared behind the three specialties.

[Introduction to swordsmanship]: You are a beginner in swordsmanship, and you no longer attack enemies with a sword like a layman wielding a fire stick. In this field, you are barely getting started.

[Lightning Reflex]: Your reflex nerves are different from ordinary people, which makes you have an extraordinary reaction speed. (mission rewards)

【Next to top】: Your wolfish ambition can hardly tolerate others sitting on your head, and the suppression of reputation, position or strength can hardly make you timid. (Reward for killing former captain Denton)

William had been watching the specialty of "Under the Counter" for a long time. He didn't expect that there would be something similar to an achievement reward for killing Denton. He quickly figured out whether it was "Introduction to Swordsmanship" or "Lightning Reflexes". The former and its "skills and specialties" are nothing more than his knowledge, skills, and other acquired abilities that can be accumulated. It is obvious that he can obtain them by learning alone without relying on space rewards, while the latter and "special expertise" should refer to It is an innate talent that is difficult to change by the day after tomorrow. What the "lightning reflex" changes is his reflex nerves. Although it is difficult to control by manpower, it can also figure out the way to obtain it.

Only this "achievement feat" is a more specific standard. William is not sure. Skill feats obviously need to be accumulated over time, and special feats may have to rely on this strange space to obtain. Only this achievement feat seems to be obtained by tricks Of course he wanted to figure out the rules.

While thinking about it, William looked around the square and found that there was no extended path. He was not surprised. It was almost the same before. The path that appeared here was closely related to his will, and now he was killing Dan. After a short pause, the short-term goal has not been determined yet. Going to the dojo to learn swords is barely counted as one, but this goal is really easy to achieve. The four of them have neither a wanted warrant nor no money. The dojo can also go to other places.

It seems that the road to space allocation will not be too easy.
