I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 63: Thieves
After a while, Lina came out carrying several exquisite small wooden boxes.
[The potion is brewing, go drink it later.]
[These boxes are simple medicine packs, keep them safe, they might prevent you from returning in such a sorry state next time.]
Lina said grumpily.
[Refined Medicine Pack]
[Type: Consumable]
[Quality: Blue]
[Quantity: 3]
[Special Effect: Using it stops bleeding, and consuming the remaining herbs accelerates coagulation and gradually restores your health and stamina.]
[Explanation: A small medicine pack meticulously prepared by Lina, it might save your life at a critical moment!]
Rogel put the three refined medicine packs into the item inventory in front of Lina.
To this, Lina was not surprised.
[Aren’t you curious where exactly I’ve been?]
Rogel looked at her and smiled.
[Is there even a need to ask?]
[Don’t all you Extraordinary just fly off to other places in a flash?]
[Maybe you just flew into some abandoned castle and got beaten by a monster before pitifully running back here.]
Lina crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.
Hearing Lina’s words, Rogel couldn’t help but laugh.
[Extraordinary aren’t all-powerful.]
[At least not the average ones.]
Rogel finished speaking, taking out the Sea Spirit Potion from the item inventory.
[Perhaps you’ll be interested in this.]
The transparent glass bottle in Rogel’s hand contained a crystal blue, translucent liquid enveloping a deep blue sheen, looking mysterious and exquisite.
[What is this?]
Perfume?
Lina was a bit puzzled.
[Magic potion.]
[Drink it, and there’s a chance of becoming an Extraordinary and gaining extraordinary power.]
Rogel looked into Lina’s eyes and said seriously.
[This potion is called the "Sea Spirit", you’ve met its consumption conditions, but there’s still a risk of failure.]
[As for the power you’d gain after consuming it... it’s unknown.]
[If you want to use it, you can drink it now.]
After listening to Rogel’s words, Lina furrowed her brows slightly.
[What happens if it fails?]
[You die or turn into a monster.]
...but I won’t let that happen.
Rogel thought to himself.
After a brief silence, Lina shifted her gaze from the Sea Spirit Potion to Rogel.
[Do you want me to drink it?]
Hearing this, Rogel was momentarily stunned, but then shook his head.
[I don’t. It’s not particularly suited for you.]
Though he wasn’t clear on the specific skills of the Sea Spirit Potion, the name gave away a hint.
The Intern’s Potion he had taken before granted him the exclusive skill of "Knowledge Comprehension," fitting well with the title of intern.
From this, it’s evident that "Sea Spirit" is certainly related to the sea, probably as a mage or something.
If that’s the case, it would undoubtedly waste Lina’s "Blade of a Hair" talent.
She clearly needs a potion that blends combat and healing functionalities.
However, such a potion might be hard to find.
The main reason Rogel showed Lina the Sea Spirit Potion was to get her opinion.
[Then I won’t drink it.]
To Rogel’s surprise, upon hearing his response, Lina immediately refused the Sea Spirit Potion.
[...Okay.]
Rogel put away the Sea Spirit Potion.
[Is that all?]
Seeing Rogel with no further action, Lina was a bit surprised.
[...Ma’am, this isn’t some tavern drink.]
[You can still change your mind if you regret it now.]
Rogel was a bit speechless.
[Never mind.]
[Let’s talk about it later.]
[In the meantime, you’d better protect your first mate, this vice captain.]
Lina stepped forward and tied a lovely bow on the bandage on Rogel’s arm.
[Of course, as I said before...]
[Stop!]
[Don’t ever repeat that sentence again, it’s giving me goosebumps.]
Lina quickly interrupted.
Rogel giggled.
[Remember to drink the potion, I’ve got work to do.]
...
Night.
After registering for the competition, Yas returned to the tavern to rest.
On the Gelin, Rogel, Lina, and Mira were already sound asleep.
Rogel was just about to put his phone down and sleep.
But tonight seemed a bit different.
When the pitch-black screen dimmed and then lit up again, the Dark Sea Hunter’s clone on the other side opened its scarlet eyes.
From the Dark Sea Hunter’s perspective, several strangers were diving and approaching the Gelin.
Rogel frowned, retracting his leg just as he was about to get out of bed.
What are these people up to?
Thinking it over, Rogel didn’t immediately wake up the main body, instead letting the Dark Sea Hunter hide silently in the shadows, observing the situation.
These people emerged from the water near the Gelin, seemingly observing something.
Rogel controlled the Dark Sea Hunter to swim closer.
Before long, the Dark Sea Hunter quietly approached just over a meter below these people.
Yet, these people remained oblivious, still engrossed in their tight plotting.
[Is the fat sheep asleep?]
[Asleep.]
[Quick, get the tools ready! Once on board, immediately subdue them all!]
[Just kill them all, they’re outsiders, save some trouble.]
[Hehe, we can snag some treasures again tonight.]
Very good.
I snagged some treasures too.
Listening beneath them, Rogel remained expressionless, quietly extending a tentacle.
Splosh!
[Mmph!]
A splash erupted as one thief was instantly dragged underwater by the Dark Sea Hunter, struggling frantically.
[What’s happening?]
[Damn, what’s going on? Where’s Manu?]
[Mmph!]
No sooner had they spoken than another thief sank into the water.
By now, even with their slow reaction, they realized the situation.
[Damn, run!]
The thieves felt a chill race down their spines.
Ready to get their hands on treasure moments ago, their excitement evaporated like smoke.
Gazing around at the dark surroundings and the deep water below, fear surged upon them like a tide.
[There’s a monster in the sea!]
Without experiencing such a scenario firsthand, one can’t comprehend this fear.
Feet unable to touch the ground, icy water, lurking unknown creatures below staring at you.
Just this feeling alone invokes despair and suffocation.
[Mmph!]
Yet another companion behind him was pulled into the water.
[Ah... Ah...]
Only one companion remained now.
The remaining companion babbled incoherently with fear.
Both desperately wished for more arms to swim faster.
But as he swam, the leader of the thieves suddenly found he was all alone!
However, he was nearly at the shore!
This ignited hope in the thief leader’s eyes.
Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and surged forward, unleashing his full potential, further boosting his speed.
Yet, no sooner than a second later, he felt himself crash into a hard, cold object.
The thief leader instinctively opened his eyes.
His eyes met with long, narrow scarlet eyes in the darkness...
