Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws.

"The five of them came here this time because of the legend of the 'ghost ship', but that thing is so illusory, who knows?"

"But the money we earn is real, not a bit of water!"

Yiman weighed the purse in her hand and a knowing smile appeared on her face.

He looked at Rune, "You have to fix this boat. There's probably something wrong with the engine position. Try to fix it!"

"Don't even think about being lazy. If you don't do it right, those young masters and young ladies are no joke!"

"If you fix it, I'll give you an extra two silver coins. How about that? That's a lot, right?"

Yade, who was standing by, couldn't stand still when he heard what Iman said. "Two silver coins? Are you crazy? I clearly saw them give you a lot of gold."

"Shhh..." Iman came up quickly and covered Yade's mouth, "Keep your voice down! Don't talk nonsense! If you talk nonsense again, I will make you pay for it!"

He let go of Yade, his face turned fierce, "Besides, what does my conversation with Normand have to do with you!"

Iman looked at Rune again, "Five silver coins, no more, how about it?"

"Okay." Rune said expressionlessly, "But you must reimburse me for everything I consumed in alchemy."

"No problem!" Iman said, "You can use whatever is in the warehouse as long as it is used to repair the ship, as long as that strange guy agrees."

After saying that, he carefully put the purse in his arms and said, "Only three days! If it's not fixed, you have to pay ten times the money yourself!"

Humming a little tune, Iman left contentedly.

Looking at Iman's back, Yade spat fiercely, "Nomand, I saw at least five or six gold coins in that purse! He only gave you five, too shady! He doesn't have to do anything!"

Rune shrugged, somewhat helpless.

This is the tragedy of the little people of this era.

If he is really such a hard worker in this era, with some skills, what's the use?

Perhaps through his desperate efforts, he can live a better life than other hard laborers.

Rune shook his head and didn't think about it.

His main purpose for coming here is the ghost ship!

Today, I have heard a lot of news about ghost ships from people around me.

At least I gained a lot on the first day.

There are many ways to find out about the ghost ship.

For example, in a bar, or as a worker repairing a ship

However, this information is generally not that reliable if it is not certified by a dedicated person.

Rune's eyes turned and finally his gaze fell on the Northrend A-4 in front of him.

The owners of this ship are five guys of noble status.

With their strength and resources, the information they obtain is definitely faster and more reliable than guessing on their own.

If I could learn something from them, it would save me a lot of effort.

Moreover, this ship is considered advanced in the current era.

I want to go out to sea and I need a boat.

"If I can't reach an agreement with these gentlemen and ladies, I will just drive the boat out to sea by myself." Rune thought to himself.

No one could have imagined that a ship repairman had already regarded the customer's ship as his own.

Since it was his own ship, Rune did not hesitate and immediately found the detailed structural drawings of Northrend A-4 at the dock and began to make a modification plan on it.

The transformation is not excessive, but every detail is very practical.

Although Rune has some technologies that are beyond the current era and can be applied to navigation, he does not want to expose them too much so as not to affect the progress of so-called "history" and change certain things.

Therefore, as long as the modified ship is a little bit ahead of the times and is still usable, it will be very good.

At the same time, Iman also said that the things in the "warehouse" could be used freely.

The other party could not have imagined that Rune would really use his casual words casually.

And the amount used was so huge that he could never imagine!

"Normand, how about it, do you see the problem?"

As Rune carefully inspected the boat, Yad stood by and handed over a kettle.

"It's not a big problem." Rune took the kettle and took a sip. The rough taste of the river water made him feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

Putting the kettle aside with a bit of disgust, Rune continued to tap on the engine and listen to the sounds inside.

"Then what can I do?" Yade waited for a while and said boredly.

Rune spent two silver coins (verbal promise) to hire him, but now he doesn't have the corresponding skills and can only stand aside feeling a little awkward.

"How about this, you go find some people to repaint the ship and repair the damaged parts. Find five people, 20 copper coins each."

"What, it costs so much?" Yade frowned.

Rune can only get five silver coins in total, and three of them were spent at once.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't I do it myself? You gave me two silver coins, so I should do the work, right?"

Rune rolled his eyes. This guy was not a bad guy.

But this little money is nothing to him. He smiled and said, "It would be great if you could finish it by yourself. Are you that efficient? Go quickly and don't disturb me while I'm working."

"Oh." Yade nodded and left immediately.

After some testing, Rune was basically certain that the main problem with the ship was with the engine.

Today's engines are relatively simple in terms of energy consumption and energy type usage.

The reasons are, firstly, the materials are not good, and secondly, there is no innovation in the corresponding alchemy formations.

Rune was not omniscient about the engine problems, otherwise he would not have had to spend a huge amount of money to hire a chief engineer for the Queen.

But these are solvable problems.

Rune mastered the "super-level alchemy formation". For these alchemical formulas of the old times, he only needed a little reasoning and guidance to come up with some relatively satisfactory results.

"Let's go check out the warehouse first. We're not sure what materials are available right now."

After getting off the boat, Rune went straight to the warehouse of the repair shop.

This warehouse is quite interesting.

It was originally just a simple warehouse for storing materials, but later an alchemist came in.

A true alchemist of this era.

Upon seeing this, the factory manager Yiman immediately licked the warehouse, and this warehouse became the other party's research site.

Normally, if the alchemist is in a good mood, he will help solve some problems in ship repair, but the price is not cheap.

Therefore, only in the most difficult times would the factory manager Iman pay a large sum of money to ask the other party for help. This is also the greatest confidence of the entire repair shop.

Normally, the factory manager would prefer to use a cheap repairman like Normand.

"Dong dong."

A simple knock on the door sounded in the most remote place of the repair shop.

No one in the warehouse answered.

Rune knocked on the door again.

Still no one.

"Then it's not my fault." Rune could obviously sense that there was someone inside, but the other party was unwilling to pay attention to him.

But he was not like those ordinary laborers who would pamper the other party.

Anything that hinders you from finding materials will hinder you from repairing or modifying the ship.

It will also hinder your search for the ghost ship!

He simply kicked the warehouse door open.

The next second, dozens of arrows flew out from inside the warehouse.

Rune frowned and dodged quickly.

“Clusters.”

The arrow hit the ground and fell limply.

Picking up an arrow, Rune knew what was going on.

The arrowheads of these arrows are not very sharp and the power is not enough, so it is basically impossible for them to cause fatal injuries to people.

At the same time, some strong anesthetics were applied on the arrows. Ordinary people who were scratched would probably have to lie down for most of the day before they could recover.

Even a physical skill transcendent of Sequence 8.9 would need a short period of time to alleviate the effects of the drug.

This is a "warning" trap.

If we go any further, the trap ahead might be truly fatal.

But Rune doesn't care about that.

He stepped into the warehouse. Under the influence of the peeping eyes and the "super-level alchemy formula", all the alchemy arrays on the surrounding walls and ground were exposed.

Rune's eyes swept across every line that formed the alchemical array, and he was suddenly a little surprised.

What he saw before him somewhat overturned his previous judgment.

The alchemist in the warehouse might really have something.

There were more than three thousand alchemical traces on the short twenty-meter road.

If someone who knows nothing about alchemy enters, the corresponding mechanism will be triggered directly.

If someone who knows a little bit of alchemy comes in, he may be able to analyze part of the formation, but it will be very difficult to go further!

Because these three thousand alchemical traces are constantly changing!

This is an alchemical formation that can "move"!

There are nine paths that are similar to "passable", but only one is real.

And this real road is changing all the time.

Even before, that is, more than a hundred years later, among the alchemical formations that Rune had seen, none was so spiritual.

Including the demon hunting formation used when hunting Hydra.

"The formation is very thoughtful and spiritual, but it's still a little unfamiliar and immature."

Rune was quick to judge.

When it comes to alchemy, Rune now has some say.

Previously in Lisa's Alchemy Workshop, he successfully learned a lot of basic knowledge and put it into practice.

Considered an alchemy apprentice.

Later, after some sedimentation, he obtained the inheritance of the "Super-Level Alchemy Formula", and his alchemy level increased greatly.

Even he was a normal alchemist at that time.

Later, after a long period of accumulation and application, Rune was not far from becoming an "Alchemy Master".

If Rune can fully understand the inheritance of the super-level alchemy formula, become proficient in it, and learn more alchemical knowledge again, he can make progress in the super-level alchemy formula.

Then he will advance to the master of alchemy.

But due to the peculiarities of his inheritance, his actual level now far exceeds that of ordinary alchemists.

What is lacking is the opportunity to learn and the time to study.

After all, his journey was too busy.

There is rarely any time to stop and rest.

Rune took a deep breath, already feeling a little curious about the alchemist in the warehouse.

The other party had such ideas when he was young and put them into practice.

In time, as long as nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely become a master alchemist.

But in Rune's memory, in the past hundred years, there seemed to be no master who had a similar research path as the one in front of him.

This prompted his curiosity to grow again.

Five minutes later, the dark golden alchemical lines on Rune's body faded.

The alchemy formation in front of me has been completely analyzed.

He took a step forward, and the alchemical formation under his feet suddenly lit up, and the golden light spread in all directions like ripples on the water.

In the next step, his speed suddenly increased, and only his afterimage could be seen in the formation.

His figure moved fast and slow, making it hard to predict.

Sometimes, some weird postures appear.

It took a full minute to get through without triggering the alchemy formation.

This is also a little fun of Rune.

Cracking the opponent's formation is like fighting with a highly skilled alchemist, and it feels a bit unsatisfying.

If this happened in a battle, Rune would just fire one cannon at a time.

Nothing is left.

After passing through the first level of the alchemy formation, the next steps are the second and third levels!

However, these formations were all extensions of the first-level formations. There was nothing innovative about them, and Rune found them uninteresting.

In less than half a minute, the entire formation was analyzed.

After the third level of alchemy formation, there are no more traps.

The alchemist who had always been good at setting traps also knew that if someone could pass through his three-layer alchemical formation without making any noise, then that person must be stronger than him.

Any further defense would be futile.

But these three layers of alchemy formation alone are enough to stop most people.

Including many extraordinary people.

This may be why Iman said, "Take whatever is in the warehouse."

How can ordinary people get access to the alchemical materials deep in this remote warehouse?

At the end of the warehouse was a not-so-big room filled with all kinds of alchemical waste.

Through the occasional flashes of light, Rune could vaguely see the figures inside.

He is a young man, younger than I thought.

He looks only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Rune pushed the door open silently. The alchemist in front of him was immersed in the experiment and completely ignored the existence behind him.

Getting closer, Rune focused a little.

The guy in front of me is conducting an experiment on a mouse.

I can't tell what the specific experiment is about.

"What are you doing?" Since he couldn't figure out what was going on, Rune had no choice but to ask.

"Ah!" Hearing a voice behind him, the young alchemist shouted and fell to the side.

He looked very frightened.

When he saw Rune, his breathing became rapid, "How did you get in?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something.

Suddenly he mustered up his courage, stood up, and stood in front of the test bench with his arms outstretched.

Trying to use his body to block his experimental project.

“You-you are not allowed to look!” the young alchemist shouted.

But because he was young and weak, the shout did not carry any threat.

Instead, the way he stared at Rune angrily was a little strange.

Rune also frowned tightly, looking a little unwell.

Hey, hey, hey. This guy in front of me,

What's with the sudden feeling of shyness?
