834 Pirates (2/2)
After being excluded for so long, his abrupt descent into the real world filled him with emotion, which was quite a novel experience.
As the number of worlds Fang Yuan traversed to increased, he realized that his interest grew stronger and stronger. He was fond of such experiences and hoped to experience even more.
In his vision, there was a soft and slender palm that was also as fair and exquisite as a youth's hand.
”Roche?” he mumbled. A string of memories from the host poured into his mind.
Roche, seventeen years old, from Fatiq Archipelago.
Two days ago, he had gone out to sea to fish alone, but was captured by pirates and became a slave on their ship.
Pirates also needed to replenish new blood.
Of course, for someone like him, there was a ninety percent chance that he would be locked up in the completely dark ship hold and end up in the lowest rung of galley slaves.
And when he died, he would once again be treated like trash and thrown into the ocean.
”Whew…”
Fang Yuan deeply exhaled, knowing that it was almost time to lay his cards on the table.
”I'm only a Magical Clone without the main body's strength, so at a crucial moment, I'll still need to request help from the main body.”
Fang Yuan glanced at his stats window:
”Name: Roche (Fang Yuan)
Strength: 0.9
Speed: 1.1
Physique: 0.8
Psyche: 2
State: Weak, Starving
Specialization: Sailing (Normal), Angling (Normal), Boxing Basics (Normal)”
”As expected, it's really a blank state…”
Fang Yuan was speechless, but shortly after his face was grave. ”The stats window formed is indeed different from the main body's when operating in reality…”
Shockingly, his main body had prepared for him the same system as Orlando.
Of course, some privileges were definitely greater.
”Furthermore… I myself am a mutant! Although I'll be targeted, my fate was originally extremely bumpy, so there's actually nothing to be concerned about. I can just pray to my main body and obtain powers…”
”Dream and Armament Master, Fang Yuan!”
With this thought, Fang Yuan immediately sent a signal to his main body.
The feedback came quickly. Traces of powers were converging and forming inside his body, carrying a bit of extraordinary powers.
Although it was minute, it was his assurance for breaking through his current predicament.
Clang!
The room's door was violently pushed opened, and a few pirates with evil grins walked in. ”Kid, are you done considering?”
”I'm done. I will join the pirates!” Fang Yuan calmly replied.
Presently, it was naturally better not to get into conflict if possible.
If it were the young man from before, he would simply be wailing to go home. But for Fang Yuan, becoming a pirate was the beginning stages of his plan.
”…”
However, the three pirates were evidently rather astonished.
”Keke… Just like I said, an ordinary kid will yield right away once you starve them for a couple of days!”
One of the pirates laughed heartily, revealing his sparse and yellow teeth.
”Great. Kid, what's your name?” asked the leader of the three.
This pirate's figure was on the thinner side. He had a pair of viper-like triangular eyes and a pale face. But currently, his gaze made Fang Yuan feel rather uncomfortable.
”Roche!”
”Right now, you can only be in the lowest rung of galley slaves, but that doesn't matter. As long as you're hardworking, I'll promote you to combat personnel. If you kill someone in the next pillage, you can become an official member!”
Triangular Eyes took a few steps forward, but there was something increasingly amiss about the atmosphere.
”It doesn't matter if you aren't good at combat since I'll protect you! As you know, our crew has rather… bad tempers. For instance, Butcher is really fond of biting children's fingers…”
It seemed like Triangular Eyes considered Fang Yuan to be under his control, and thus his words became increasingly explicit. ”Of course… if you receive something, you must pay something in return…”
”What!”
Discovering that he had an increasingly evil and lewd glint in his eyes, Fang Yuan immediately burst into vulgarities. ”I should have already known that the majority of the pioneers in the Great Voyage Era are a bunch of scum! The dregs of society!”
”Kid, you're asking for trouble!”
Triangular Eyes was rather furious and shot a meaningful glance at the two behind him. ”Take him down, but take care not to hurt his face…”
”Boss, I think we can pull out his teeth!” The two pirates behind him stepped forward and evilly grinned. ”This way, it'll be even easier for us to love and care for him…”
Thump!
Just as he finished speaking, the pirate was ruthlessly flung into the air as though he were struck by a train, spitting out a mouthful of blood-stained teeth.
”North?”
Triangular Eyes was shocked to discover that the pirate's neck was twisted 180 degrees and could see his own back. Obviously, he was not going to survive.
Crack! Crack!
Fang Yuan was rubbing his fists, his knuckles producing explosive sounds. With an icy voice, he said, ”Trash indeed ought to be thrown into the trash can!”
Although he himself was practically the mold for a good-for-nothing, he had his main body backing him.
The usage of extraordinary powers caused his stats to be in a state of comprehensive growth. In addition, with his experience from countless battles, killing a few pirates was naturally a piece of cake.
