Chapter 33: : Bloodline mutation

"998, 999, 1000!" Every time Bai Ya slashed the wooden knife in her hand, she muttered silently in her heart.
On the deck under the scorching sun, a group of pirates were roasting, and everyone was sweating profusely.
"Finally done!" After cutting 1,000 times, Bai Ya immediately threw away the wooden knife, turned and ran to the ship's side, then plunged into the sea with a plop.
The moment he entered the water, the heat and cold changed too fast, making him tremble violently.
But the young man kept in mind the content of the training, gritted his teeth and floated to the surface, took a deep breath, stroked his arms with all his strength, and began to swim quickly around the bird.
"Quick, quick, quick!" The urging sound of three swords came from the ship's side.
Another group of pirates threw wooden boxes, barrels, etc. on the ship's side. According to the rules of Zongge, the more pirates that hit the water, the higher their training scores.
To breathe, Bai Ya had to avoid the barrels that kept falling down.
Fortunately, he is not the only one, there are many pirates before and after him to share the firepower for him.
Bai Ya quickly found a pattern.
To avoid the impact of falling objects, you have to look at the timing. The dive must be deep enough so that the water surface can be used to weaken the force of the barrel and other bombings.
But it can't be too deep, because he has to change his breath and compete with other pirates for swimming speed.
This tests his observation ability, and also tests his control over his own physical ability, and also requires him to remain calm in the chaos.
After finally swimming through the little bird lap, Bai Ya completed the training content of diving.
He needs to climb a rope to get on the deck of the bird again.
When he caught the rope with both hands, his arms were already sore and swollen, he was breathing heavily, and his whole body was trembling slightly.
Holding the rope with his hands, his upper body emerged from the sea. The young man took the opportunity to observe the left and right, and he found that someone had already climbed on the deck ahead, and someone was climbing halfway.
"I am behind! I have to catch up with them."
Bai Ya became anxious and immediately began to climb.
But the next moment, his arms released, and the whole person slipped directly into the sea.
"Oops, I'm exhausted." Bai Ya's heart sank.
In the end, he spent far more time than he imagined to get on the deck with great difficulty. He became one of the last few.
Baiya was born as a mountain hunter. Climbing is actually his strong point, but swimming is not. In the process of swimming, he expended too much energy and was smashed a few times at the same time. Once the pain almost fainted on the spot.
Frustration and loss enveloped him, so that Bai Ya collapsed on the deck, unable to get up for a while.
Suma came over and stretched out his hand to pull up Bai Ya.
Bai Ya looked at the winners, and after making a comparison in her heart, she couldn't help but shook her head discouragedly.
This kind of competition with each other made him deeply aware of the gap between people.
As long as it is bronze, even the old man has a lot more physical fitness than him. Even if he is proficient in swimming, he is not an opponent of these people.
The remaining ordinary people are actually much stronger than Baiya in terms of fighting qi cultivation, but they haven't reached the level of becoming a bronze rank.
"If I could be bronze, how good would it be!"
"Senior Suma's words are completely correct?"
"Am I really hopeless?"
Baiya was not reconciled, but still had expectations.
In the morning, it was training for boarding and melee combat, and in the afternoon it was training for gun shooting.
On the narrow artillery deck, Zong Ge held his pocket watch and kept drinking. The pirates including Bai Ya kept going back and forth between the sides of the ship, pushing cannons, stuffing gunpowder, stuffing shells, pulling ropes and shooting.
But Mange was still dissatisfied, and the orc roared loudly at the end: "Your speed is too slow, too slow! In the next training, the time for one round of shelling must be shortened to two minutes!"
Night fell.
The pirates were eating dinner and clashing with wooden spoons and rice bowls.
"Training, training, training all day!"
"I almost suspected that I had entered the barracks, or the elite regular army of the Empire."
"When can I grab a fortune?"
"I'll get off the boat! This is not a place for people to stay."
"Boy, get away a bit. Didn't you see that this is the place where I sit?" A small bronze boss pushed Bai Ya fiercely.
Bai Ya staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Suma was no longer around, and Bai Ya didn't want to cause trouble, pushing it down without saying a word.
Mange has boarded the Justice.
In the captain's room.
He and the young knight surrounded the desk and cast their eyes on the stack of charts on the desk together.
"How is the effect of training?" The young knight asked, looking down at the chart.
"The effect of artillery training has been good, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. As for the battleship..." Zong Ge shook his head and said unsatisfactorily, "The quality of these troops is not high."
"This is not a barracks." The young knight smiled and reminded.
He knew that Mane Ge was a soldier when he was on Strange Island.
The orc nodded: "Yes. It's only a few days? These people can't bear it anymore. Although I suppressed them, they are getting more and more angry. They need to vent their heads."
The young knight sighed: "I also know that according to the information, we should have seen the Rapids yesterday."
The pirate ship Rapids is the prey of the teenagers.
Intelligence is a channel from the empire and should be reliable.
But when they rushed to this sea area, they never found the Rapids.
This possibility is also possible.
Because although the Rapids frequently haunts here and robs past merchant ships, it is constantly moving. Sometimes, in order to chase merchant ships or other reasons, it is likely to stay away from this sea area.
The young knight used his fingers to draw an arc on the chart: "Tomorrow our course will be like this."
The end of the arc, the direction where the young knight’s fingers paused, was a small island.
"If we didn't encounter the Rapids, we would rest on this island. It is marked on the empire's chart. This island has plenty of food and fresh water to supplement." The knight said.
Zong Ge nodded.
He is an excellent general, knowing that the state of his subordinates really needs some relaxation, and can't be pressed too tightly, which will cause rebellion and turmoil.
With such a big boat, Zong Ge can't move it alone.
The next day, the Rapids still disappeared.
The Justice and the Little Bird sailed for a day and docked on the unknown island at dusk.
The young knight arranged some people on two boats, and then took a large number of people and horses to the island overnight.
The pirates who had been trapped in the narrow cabin for a long time, after setting foot on the ground, they all shouted in joy.
The young knight dispatched everyone into many teams, pointed out their direction, let them explore the island as much as possible, and agreed to set sail tomorrow afternoon.
And in the middle of the night, everyone who escaped from the mysterious island gathered secretly in a valley.
"There are three main things to gather everyone. The first is to keep the secret contract." The young knight said, raising his hand to let everyone see the scroll in his hand.
"I believe that using the secret scrolls can make us trust each other more. These are all purchased from the empire. Now they monitor each other and use the scrolls in their hands together. Any objections can be raised now."
Everyone looked at each other, and immediately shook their heads, expressing their approval of the leader's decision.
The brilliance of the secret-guarding scroll began to flicker.
It is difficult for ordinary people to use the secret scrolls by themselves, and with the help of others, everyone uses the scrolls.
The atmosphere seems to have become more harmonious.
"The second thing is to distribute pearls." The young knight motioned to Cangbeard.
Cangxu stood aside and took out a bag with pearl foam.
For each person in front of him, he distributed a few to each other.
During the distribution process, the young knight continued: "The output of pearl foam is decreasing, and it is difficult to keep it going. According to the current situation, we only have about a month or so. By then, the pearl foam will be exhausted."
Everyone looked solemn.
They already knew about this situation.
"Didn't we discover the temple of Charm Blue God?" someone said.
The young knight nodded and said, "For this, we have to thank Mr. Cangsu. Because of him, we have found the clues to the Temple of the Blue God. Perhaps in this temple, we can find the magic blue magic power for the fairy tale of the magical mermaid. Method."
"So, our next goal is the Charm Blue Temple!"
"Of course, before that, we have to digest all the funds and do our best to arm ourselves to enhance our combat effectiveness."
"Do you have any other opinions?"
Everyone agreed.
Fat Tongue added: "Also, we have to save my family club and president as soon as possible. Only in this way can we contact the patriarch of Baizhen."
The young knight nodded to him: "Believe me, I have never forgotten this, and will do my best to rescue Zidi. We can escape from the Strange Island. At the last minute, without Zidi's help, it won't work."
Fat tongue was comforted and stopped talking.
The others were silent.
Everyone's perception of Zidi is very complicated.
On the one hand, the shipwreck was made by Zidi. On the other hand, they were rescued by Zidi on Mysterious Island. The key point is that Zidi has a close relationship with the leader boy...
"The third thing is a good thing. Cangbeard, it's up to you." The young knight smiled.
Cangxu looked indifferent, and calmly said that he could use the alchemy circle to help his person digest the soul crystal.
The crowd became excited.
"What the is a soul crystal? What can it help us?" Bai Ya asked the blue algae beside him.
The blue algae shook his head: "I don't know too well, it seems to be a good thing that can enhance our mental power."
Cangxu then said about the soul crystal transaction.
Soul crystals are very precious, and it is completely wasteful for ordinary people to use them to enhance their mental power.
It's better to give it to the extraordinary to use it, which can better help the team improve its overall power.
Ordinary people can trade with transcendents and use their soul crystal rights in exchange for what they want.
This proposal was approved by almost everyone.
Only Bai Ya felt resentment.
This is the case with Monster Meat, and the same with Soul Crystal. As an ordinary person, he felt discrimination.
But immediately, he became happy again, and said to the blue algae: "Can I sell the soul crystal to you in exchange for Monster Meat?"
Spirulina glanced at him, then hesitated and said: "Yes. But the meat of beasts...you also need to be moderate, not to eat more. Your foundation is a bit weak, and eating too much can be harmful."
"My lord, if I keep eating Monster Meat, will I be able to break through to the bronze level?" Bai Ya asked nervously.
Cyanobacteria froze for a moment, and immediately realized that Bai Ya already knew the cruel truth of his aptitude.
He didn't want to deceive Bai Ya, but he didn't want to hit him.
Seeing the cyanobacteria silent for a while, Bai Ya's expression quickly dimmed.
"Am I really hopeless?"
"Yes." Spirophyta patted him on the shoulder and smiled barely, "Do you know that bloodline mutations? The descendants of nobles have always had weak bloodlines. The offspring of these weak bloodlines may have a bloodline mutation and suddenly have a strong bloodline. ."
"But I'm just an ordinary Orion."
"Who knows. There are many illegitimate children of nobles. Maybe even your parents and grandparents don't know it. This kind of situation is very common among those with bloodline mutations."
"Bloodline mutation..." Bai Ya muttered, remembering this word deepest in her heart.
