We Agreed To Set Sail and Become the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

Chapter 48 Binding Investment and Strengthening

 It didn’t take long.

Xia En sat at the table, looking at the fragrant food on the table in front of him, looking a little dazed.

It is hard to imagine that not long ago, he was fighting a group of terrifying deep-sea murlocs, and even broke into an indescribable mysterious deep sea.

However, the warm scene in front of him also made Xia En feel a kind of spiritual peace.

 The shadows caused by the previous exploration of the depths of the [Secret Sea] gradually dissipated.

“It is said that some long-distance ships will carry priests from the Church of the Deep, seemingly to protect the mental health of the sailors.”

Xia En touched his chin and thought to himself.

 【Quality: Rare】

 Instances of crew members being contaminated, mentally alienated, and turning into strange monsters are widely spread across the Seven Seas.

 “Bind!”

 【Talents: Sea water affinity, graceful singing voice, magic affinity】

　　【Acquire talent: Sea water affinity! 】

 “Mr. Captain?”

In just one month, you can go from a thin young man who owes a huge sum of money to a first-class captain with amazing physical fitness. No one will believe it if you spread the news.

 【Secret Career: None】

Here, several sturdy artillery pieces are installed, quietly waiting for others to use them.

 “Ahem, no, no.”

  【Crew: Joey (bound)】

As if aware of his slightly rude look, Joey turned around awkwardly: "Is there something stuck on my face?"

 It's just that even she has a desire for power and wants to become a more useful person to Mr. Captain.

Xia En was a little surprised at first, but after careful calculation of the time, it turned out to be true.

“So it’s only been a month?”

 “I believe you have such potential.”

 In her impression, all those who are associated with the secret path of magic are extremely noble. On Duke Island, all of them are famous figures.

“Thinking about it this way, will you have to trick a priest into boarding the ship another day?”

Xia En didn’t hesitate much and thought silently in his heart.

Xia En coughed twice and changed the subject: "Speaking of which, what secret career path does Joey plan to take?"

 It's a bit like an intern in a company. He can do anything, but his level is only that.

  【Sturdy single cannon】

"Furthermore, I will also bring you relics, materials, and even magic potions related to magic. This is regarded as my investment in you."

 …

 Obviously, this [sea water affinity] is the talent extracted from Joey.

Thinking of this, Xia En's expression couldn't help but feel a little weird.

 The bloodline of Siren is born with a certain amount of extraordinary secret power.

 If you really want to count, there are still ordinary people on the boat, but I am actually the only one left.

Since Joey doesn’t know how to choose, let yourself choose for her!

 Isn’t it one of the captain’s responsibilities to properly explore the talents of the crew?

 “Magic?”

Shaan was not surprised by this.

“In other words, Joey can temporarily transform into a siren, the legendary sea monster?”

 She had only experienced this kind of trust from Mr. Captain.

　　【Description: Your affinity for sea water has increased, and your swimming speed in sea water has increased slightly. 】

 【Bloodline: Siren (rich)】

 Similar to the situation when he was first bound to the Black Swan, it seemed as if an invisible bond was established between him and Joey.

 The [Magic Affinity] on the panel also shows that Joey has talent in this area.

For example, before An was promoted, there was already a display of [Knight (Level 0)] on the panel, indicating that he had long been determined on his own path, and all he lacked was an opportunity for promotion.

However, it can be seen from the proficiency level that Joey has only learned these skills and has not delved into a higher level.

"what occupation…"

 Hearing this, Joey was slightly moved.

 Perhaps at this time.

　　【Can simultaneously enhance the effect of the talent "Seawater Control". 】

 After reading it, Xia En’s expression became even weirder.

Joy's tone was a bit inferior: "A profession like a mage? Can I become that kind of person?"

Joy is certainly not dissatisfied with his odd job.

 What Xia En is a little concerned about is the [Sirenization].

 But none of her skills are considered specialization, which makes it impossible for her to make a choice.

Joy said that he has a special constitution and cannot go into the sea, but he has the talent of [sea water affinity]?

 Mr. Knight also became a Mystic a few days ago.

　　【You have bound crew member "Joy"! 】

　　【O sea, I have returned! 】

　　【One of the core components. 】

 Different from An’s situation, Joey is good at everything, which means she has the possibility of development in every career.

"it is as expected…"

 Whether it is long-range attack or defense against enemy spells, spellcasters can play an important role.

Another point.

Joy raised his head and saw Shane looking at him with gentle and trusting eyes.

　　【Crew "Joy" has been living on the Black Swan for a month, is he bound? 】

 In this mysterious sea, mental health is as important as physical health.

 After thinking for a moment, Xia En said: "Perhaps, you can consider a secret career related to magic."

There is still a spellcaster missing on this ship!

 As we all know, a powerful spellcaster is enough to determine the outcome of a naval battle.

 【Skills: Unknown swordsmanship, cooking skills, shooting skills, hull repair skills, craftsmanship, archeology, navigation, sirenization...】

 Her role seems to be only doing odd jobs, cooking, and pickling salted fish.

 Good guy, you really know a little bit about everything!

The content of the [Skills] column alone dazzled Xia En, and it was even richer than his skills.

Shaan walked behind one of the cannons and touched the solid barrel with his hand.

 …

Xia En glanced at the white-haired girl not far away and felt a little weird. White hair, red eyes, fish tail and human body?

 It seems that...it's not unacceptable?

 The most important thing is that you don’t know what you want to do.

 “Why not?”

 After eating, he also gave directions to the confused crew members.

 Xia En came to a corner of the cabin alone.

Shaen was thinking about these various things, but Joey across the dining table had a complicated mood.

 The captain has been promoted, which is of course a good thing.

 He opened the panel and looked carefully.

A prompt flashed in front of Xia En's eyes.

No matter which version, Master Fa is still the master!

 Joy's little face was a little confused. After thinking for a long time, she shook her head and said, "I don't know."

 But at this moment, Xia En’s words rang in her ears.

Xia En has not forgotten that after binding a crew member, you can obtain some of the crew members' abilities and attributes.

 Shane’s idea is simple.

For a little sailor like me, who has a humble status, relies on others, and looks strange, it is really out of reach.

 Soon, Joey's eyes quickly became determined: "Mr. Captain, thank you, I will work hard!"

　　【It can be strengthened with "Filthy Crystals". The degree of strengthening is determined by the total number of crystals invested! 】

  【Is it strengthened? 】
