I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 162 - 148: Doctor Pupa (Part 2)
Upon saying that, Rogel asked a question, meeting her hopeful eyes.
"Why do you want to become stronger?"
Rogel looked at her seriously.
Upon hearing Rogel's words, Noemi fell silent for a moment and touched the Wolf Fang Necklace around her neck.
"Because... I am too weak..."
Her expression was somewhat melancholy as she clenched the Wolf Fang tightly in her palm.
Rogel took in her demeanor completely.
After contemplating for a while, he glanced at Lina, seeking her opinion with his eyes.
Lina shrugged, indicating she didn't mind, leaving the decision to him.
As for Yas, he nodded in agreement without objection.
Having received Lina and Yas's opinions, Rogel said to Noemi.
"Alright, you can temporarily join us."
[Bounty Hunter Noemi has joined your Adventurer's Guild.]
[Noemi (Companion)]
[Level: 3]
[Body: 6]
[Spirit: 5]
[Faith: 1]
[Tier: None]
[Special Skills: Bow Skill Lv7, Hunting Lv5, Tracking Lv5, Shooting Lv3, Fighting Lv2.]
[Life Skills: Artisan Lv3, Sailing Lv3, Cooking Lv1...]
[Talent: Wolf Sensing, Precise Hurricane, Subhuman Hybrid]
[1. Wolf Sensing (Rare), possesses a powerful sixth sense and sense of smell, able to track and perceive targets through scent and intuition.]
[2. Precise Hurricane (Legendary), elevates Bow Skill talent to the highest level, greatly enhancing attack speed when using ranged weapons, and actively triggering "Hurricane," continuously boosting shooting speed for a period followed by deterioration.]
[3. Subhuman Hybrid (Elite), a hybrid of human and Wolf Race, although you don't inherit all the advantages of both, you still gain strong physical fitness and speed, with the drawback of greatly increased craving for bones.]
That's not bad, she has a legendary talent, and the skills Noemi holds are quite practical.
A qualified crew member.
Rogel nodded in satisfaction internally.
But what the heck is this "greatly increased craving for bones"?
While complaining in his mind, Rogel also spoke to Noemi before him.
"But I must first make it clear to you that there's an assessment period before you become an official crew member, can you accept that?"
Upon hearing Rogel's words, Noemi nodded with a bit of excitement.
"Mm mm!"
"Alright, you can stand to the side for now, we have some things to do." Rogel nodded.
Upon hearing this, Noemi obediently stood aside, blinking at Lina before moving behind her, whispering some inquiries.
Meanwhile, Rogel led everyone in thoroughly searching Yuelin's lair.
After reviewing Yuelin's journal, Rogel gained insight into Yuelin's background.
Yuelin was an honest man living on Jeweler Island, once blessed with a happy family, a gentle and virtuous wife, and a lively adorable daughter.
He worked at a mine on Jeweler Island, although exhausting, it was a livelihood.
Until one day, the mine suffered an accident, attacked by a group of Miner Demons.
Though Yuelin survived, he was left disabled, altering his life drastically.
As the family's backbone, Yuelin quickly lost his job due to his inability to work.
The trouble doubled when Yuelin's wife stepped up to bear the family's heavy burden by working arduously outside, only to be victimized by a gang on Jeweler Island, losing her life upon being violated.
His daughter also ended up dying of starvation.
Bontas, the one who caused his wife's death, even entered his home, giving him spoiled food while humiliating him, deriving some perverse pleasure from it.
Yuelin ate the meal.
That meal led a once kind, honest man down a path of no return.
Yuelin struggled to live, encountering a person years ago by chance who called himself "Doctor Pupa," promising a surgery granting him Extraordinary Power.
Yuelin had nowhere to go.
After eating that meal, he became a mere shell surviving on instinct.
But Doctor Pupa's words reignited his hope for revenge.
Yuelin cared little for his motives, agreeing resolutely to the surgery.
Doctor Pupa transplanted the gland of a Dominating Demon Spider and heart of a Spirit Tree into him, and provided him with the Puppet Master's Alternative Promotion Method.
During this period, Yuelin needed to continually create puppets from living people.
Upon reaching a certain number, Yuelin could complete the revenge ritual against his hated Bontas, fully entering the Extraordinary Domain.
The description on the Puppet Master's Alternative Promotion Method read:
[Pain and cruelty are the materials for puppets, emotions are the perfect threads to control them.]
Thus, after acquiring Extraordinary Power, Yuelin waited a long while before acting against his nemesis Bontas.
Bontas was the crucial component of his promotion.
[I diligently worked hard, believing everything was wonderful, but why is this beauty...so fragile?]
[Those damned Miner Demons dragged my life into the Abyss, and wicked men utterly obliterated my human will...]
[My esteemed Doctor Pupa, you are right, regardless of what to do, but never be an ordinary person.]
[Only through cruelty can one avenge fate.] 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
[Whatever your purpose is, I thank you, thank you for giving me a chance of rebirth, for pulling me from the Abyss, allowing me to avenge fate and my enemies.]
[After completing the promotion, I will leave here, pursuing your path.]
[To the esteemed Doctor Pupa.]
