After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 5 [Black Rose]

With the help of two men dressed as pirates, Ryan climbed onto the deck with difficulty along a thick hemp rope. As soon as he got on the boat, he couldn't help but vomit a few mouthfuls of seawater.

The weather at sea is really changeable. It was cloudless a few minutes ago, and then it was pouring rain in a short while.

The surging waves were simply not something his small canvas raft could withstand.

Stumbling in the waves, he was eventually swept into the waves.

Fortunately, [Descendant of the Vikings] gave him extremely powerful water properties, and even more fortunately, when he was desperate, a three-masted sailboat appeared in the distance of his vision.

……

After spitting out the seawater in his mouth, Ryan, whose breathing calmed down, raised his head and looked around.

The sight that caught his eye made him slightly stunned.

Under the pouring rain, dozens of pirates knelt on the deck. Even the two pirates who had just used hemp ropes to pull him up now knelt back on the deck again.

These guys with strong physiques and who should be extremely vicious are now letting the rain wash away, shrinking into a ball with fear in their eyes, like poor lambs.

And the direction they were kneeling in was clearly... behind him.

"tell me your name?"

A light voice came from behind Ryan.

It can be heard that the owner of the voice has tried very hard to make a serious, low, and majestic voice. Unfortunately, her voice is too crisp and her tone is too soft, so even if she tries very hard, it still sounds childish. a feeling of.

Ryan turned his head and saw the owner of the voice, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

She was wearing a big, fluffy and soft white hat. The raised top of the hat seemed to be tilted backwards under the weight, and what separated the top of the hat and the brim was a circle of beautiful light blue ruffles. From the image, Look, it looks exactly like a witch's hat.

Under the brim of the hat, there is a face that is as delicate as a doll.

She didn't look very old, only about eighteen or nineteen years old. Her skin was extremely delicate, like jade. Her dazzling white skin formed a sharp contrast with the rough and dark skin of the surrounding pirates.

The girl is wearing a white dress. The wide sleeves and collar are dark blue. The interweaving of white and blue, coupled with the tassel-like pattern under the girl's deep ice blue eyes, presents a strong look. Mystery.

The figure standing next to the ice blue girl is equally eye-catching.

She was wearing a women's light chainmail shirt, with a leopard-like figure that was as strong and explosive as the ice blue girl. She stood there like a lonely and cold knight standing next to the queen, and her body was obviously not wide. , but it gives people a feeling of indestructibility - before she falls, no one can step within three steps of the person she protects.

Ryan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Are you the captain of this ship? Thank you very much for your rescue."

"My name is Ryan Soros."

He made this up casually. The name was not changed, but the surname was changed. According to the remaining memories of the original person, the phenomenon of duplicate names in the Kingdom of Augustus is very serious, and there are many people named "Lian".

As Ryan spoke, he first turned his right hand [-] degrees, and at the same time stepped on the ground with the toes of his right foot toward his left foot. After turning his right hand, he turned again, keeping his body tilted forward at [-] to [-] degrees. He bowed gracefully.

This is an instinct inherited from this body. It has been deeply ingrained in the bone marrow because it has performed the same movements too many times.

"Lian Soros?" Emei, an ice-blue girl wearing a floppy witch hat, frowned: "You are not a pirate, but the tiger's mouth has calluses left by years of holding a sword... There is no such thing as 'Soros' in the kingdom. A noble surname."

"..." Ryan's heart sank. The other party was actually familiar with Wang Guo's surname, which was beyond his expectation.

It's not surprising that the other party can tell at a glance that he is not a pirate.

How could pirates who were exposed to wind and sun all year round have such clean and smooth skin as his?

Feeling the increasingly cold gaze of the female knight next to the ice blue girl, Ryan shook his head and said bitterly: "Sorry, I did lie."

"Because I don't know my name anymore."

"When I woke up, I had lost the memory of the past, but the name Leo Soros was still given to myself after I woke up."

"Oh?" After hearing this, the ice blue girl glanced noncommittally. Just when Ryan was nervous, she heard this sentence:

"Forget it, since it's the sea, there's no point in worrying about these things. Tell me, what do you know?"

"We don't need useless people on board."

Hearing this, Ryan was relieved in his heart and said quickly: "I know...a little bit of swordsmanship and some knowledge about navigation and rare objects."

The three things he mentioned are the skills that are clearly displayed as "getting started" on the panel.

"Do you have knowledge about navigation..." Upon hearing the keyword, the ice-blue girl's eyes lit up slightly: "So, can you serve as a navigator?"

The navigator is the key person on every large ship. He is responsible for the navigation of the ship, so he needs sufficient navigation knowledge to determine the position and course of the ship. At the same time, navigators also need to detect weather conditions and predict sea currents and wind directions in order to provide accurate navigation advice to the captain.

All ships that sail long distances need an experienced navigator.

In fact, some captains were experienced navigators themselves, but it was obvious that the ice-blue girl in front of them did not meet this condition.

"Navigator?" After hearing this title, Ryan was stunned for a moment, but then nodded: "I am very unfamiliar with this sea area, but if I just judge the weather, current and wind direction, I still have a little confidence."

"That's enough." The ice blue girl nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, Mr. Lane, you are welcome to join the [Black Rose]."

"My name is Freni, you can just call me 'Captain'."

"As for Cecilia, she is my escort."

The knight girl on the side nodded slightly with a cold expression.

"I'm honored." Ryan felt relieved and saluted again, knowing that he was safe for the time being. Looking at the pirates kneeling behind him, he asked curiously: "Captain, who are they?"

"They are." Freni said calmly: "They are just a group of villains who don't care about death. I am thinking about how to deal with them."

"Mr. Lane, do you have any ideas?"

"Don't dare to take it, don't take it." Ryan shook his head quickly: "Everything will be subject to your arrangements, Captain."

Freni smiled slightly: "Then let them serve as sailors on the ship first. After all, if a ship wants to sail a long distance, it cannot only rely on three or two people."

After saying this, she raised her right hand, and mysterious and deep dark blue energy filled her white and tender palm.
