There's something wrong with me

Chapter 148: The New World [Voyage ++]

Opening my eyes.

The salty smell of the sea filled my nostrils, the sun was blinding, and a rocking sensation came from beneath my feet.

Zhang Feng subconsciously lowered his waist and looked around.

Directly ahead was the bow of the ship, with a dried-up goat skeleton hanging on it, inscribed with 'talismans' for warding off evil and seeking good fortune.

Zhang Feng recognized at a glance that the person who wrote these talismans actually had some knowledge.

Regardless of whether they practiced cultivation, at least the talismans were correct.

At the same time, he glanced around.

This was an ancient ship more than twenty meters long.

All around was the boundless sea.

He was dressed as a crew member, and the captain was personally steering the ship at the front, wearing a relatively clean cloth robe.

However, he had a musket behind his back.

The current time was the sixteenth century.

And this world had undergone a change in the fourteenth century.

This caused most of the world to become ocean, and the land area became scarce.

People mostly lived on ships, or occasionally docked on small islands in the sea.

The remaining large islands all had their own owners.

Going ashore required paying money, or food, or labor.

The larger landmasses were the locations of the various dynasties.

This world was basically a situation of warlords and dynasties in contention.

Zhang Feng quickly understood the world's information through his memories and looked at his attributes.

[Age: 24]

[Physique: 13.7]

[Root Bone: 5.2]

[Martial Arts: 5.5]

[Spiritual Root: 0.5]

He glanced at it.

Zhang Feng then looked at the ship.

Now, this ship was where he worked and also his home.

Including himself, there were a total of 51 people on board.

He was originally a fisherman on a large island. A month ago, he saw this ship passing by, and because he was full of longing for the outside world, he came to live on this ship.

Finally, Zhang Feng summarized it.

He found that in his memory, besides knowing the general background of the world and knowing that the world was very chaotic, he knew nothing else.

Including the names of these dynasties, he didn't remember many.

Thinking, Zhang Feng looked at the text introduction.

[Revival: 4]

[Adventure Level: 5 ++]

[Adventure Type: Survival, Adventure]

[Main Quest: Survive for 20 years and become a captain]

[Non-Essential Main Quest: Destroy a legendary warship and find 'Poseidon Island']

[Identity: Crew Member of the Voyager]

[Maximum Number of Enhancements This Time: 22]

[For every half-year you survive, you will receive one enhancement option]

[Note 1: This world is a major checkpoint ++ world. Completing it will grant double level experience and honor]

[Note 2: After completing both tasks, you will randomly receive a 'Basic Spell' memory]

… …

++ again.

And it's a 20-year-long world!

Zhang Feng felt that this was a good thing.

In such a world, he had enough time to hone his skills.

But relatively speaking, Zhang Feng also knew that this world was a 'checkpoint test'.

If he met the standard, then he would reach the sixth level.

But if he didn't meet the standard, then it meant that his efforts were not enough.

Well, let's not think about it for now.

Zhang Feng quickly looked at the tasks.

First of all, the captain's task was simple.

Zhang Feng knew the rules of the text and also knew that this was the 'literal meaning', roughly meaning to own a ship of his own.

He could just get one by then.

Or just snatch one.

Anyway, this was a world of vast oceans.

When he lived on the big island, he had heard many people say that there were many pirates at sea.

So, in other words, there were also many ships.

So as long as he could live for 20 years, the main quest would definitely be completed.

But the non-main quest 'Poseidon Island' was not in his memory.

There was some 'memory introduction' about legendary warships in the text.

After Zhang Feng chose to receive it, he learned that the fleets of those dynasties on land were 'legendary'.

In addition, there were also some well-known pirate ships and adventurers whose reputation was also legendary.

Then this meant finding some 'legendary figures', or directly charging at the dynasty's fleet.

This was somewhat promising.

Thinking.

Zhang Feng looked at the first enhancement.

[1: Voyage, Heterodox Ways]

[2: Elementary Swimming, Heterodox Ways]

[3: Growing Martial Arts, Heterodox Ways]

'Heterodox Ways?'

Zhang Feng glanced at it and felt that this should be a 'set'.

Just like the revenge set in the previous revenge world.

Thinking in his mind, Zhang Feng looked at 1.

[Voyage: Epic, Rare, Appears at the Beginning, Ship Type, Water Attribute, Heterodox Ways Resistance]

[Effect 1: Physique + 1, Martial Arts + 0.5, Water Attribute Spiritual Root + 0.5]

[Effect 2: Reaction Speed - 0.002, Vision Adjusted to 1.5]

[Effect 3: When living on a ship, for every 365 consecutive days of living, Physique + 1. The number of days is reset to 0 when on land]

[Effect 4: You have an additional 5% immunity to Heterodox Ways curses and erosion spells]

Nothing else, all values.

Zhang Feng liked this.

But the vision correction was a bit repetitive, and the ship life attribute was a bit too limited.

What if he had to stay on land for a while, or disembark? That would be a loss.

So, he looked at 2.

[Swimming: Epic, Rare, Water Attribute, Heterodox Ways Resistance]

[Effect 1: Root Bone + 1, Martial Arts + 1, Water Attribute Spiritual Root + 0.5]

[Effect 2: An additional 5% resistance effect to cold and water attributes is added]

[Effect 3: When you are in the water, you can obtain a small amount of oxygen from the water]

[Effect 4: You are protected by the water attribute. When in the sea area, you have an additional 7.5% immunity to Heterodox Ways curses and erosion spells]

[Note: In order to maintain 'Effects 2, 3, 4', you need to eat more than 500 grams of fish within every seven days]

This was good, with many additional effects.

There was also that bizarre erosion spell, with an additional 2.5% immunity.

Although he didn't know what the curse spell in this world was.

But as long as he prepared some dried fish, the attributes in this text entry were basically free.

It's just that there was no growing physique.

After that, he glanced at 3.

Zhang Feng saw that the growing martial arts was + 0.3 martial arts every year.

Over the next twenty years, that was 6 points, a lot.

But it belonged to gradual progress, not an initial increase.

In addition, this world had Heterodox Ways evil arts, and there were also these talisman goat bones, so there must be spiritual energy.

So, he would put martial arts aside for now.

He would specialize in spiritual energy, open the six spiritual senses early, and familiarize himself while consolidating.

Subsequently.

He chose 2, swimming.

After choosing.

Zhang Feng looked at the second enhancement option.

[1: Physique + 1.2]

[2: Digestion and Absorption + 20 grams]

[3: Earth Spiritual Root + 0.1]

Choose 3, he wanted a spiritual root, no need to look at any attributes.

He was cultivating 'spiritual sense', cultivating the pool, so any attribute didn't matter.

Because whether it was a fire spiritual root or a water spiritual root, when added to his attribute panel, it was an increase in the 'overall spiritual root'.

Of course, there were also differences.

For example, when he used spells, if the 'proportion' of the water spiritual root in his spiritual root was high, then he would be relatively 'familiar' and 'close' to the operation of the water attribute.

These various elemental attributes were to increase familiarity and affinity.

And in Zhang Feng's opinion, these familiarities could be mastered with practice.

It's just that if he didn't have the proportion of the fire spiritual root, then it would be very difficult to operate the fire attribute at the beginning.

Because the spiritual roots were not harmonious.

But as long as he was familiar, he could also control it.

Zhang Feng felt that this was all a matter of skilled mastery of materials and knowledge.

As long as he practiced, he could be skilled.

After that, he looked at the third enhancement option.

[1: Fire Spiritual Root + 0.2]

[2: Martial Arts + 0.2]

[3: A Sharp Machete]

A knife?

Zhang Feng estimated it, and then looked at the captain in front.

He had a musket.

And according to his own memory.

The captain had no grudges with him.

So he was not a danger, he could choose 1.

After choosing everything.

Zhang Feng opened his meridians while looking for something to eat.

Compared to 'spiritual sense that was not opened instantly', the meridians were easier to open in the early stage.

In the next few days, he would form effective combat power first, and then talk about the spiritual sense.

… …

Four hours later.

Evening.

At the stern of the ship, Zhang Feng surveyed the surrounding sea area and saw that everything was normal.

And in these four hours.

He also opened most of the meridians and ate a few pieces of very salty dried fish, resonating a lot of physique.

"Zhang Feng!"

Just as Zhang Feng was continuing to resonate.

A one-eyed man walked over from the side, "Another small island has been discovered ahead. Haven't you always wanted to see the various islands outside? Here, take this."

As he spoke, he handed over a self-made long tube nautical telescope.

This kind of telescope had better sealing and waterproofness than ordinary telescopes.

Zhang Feng took it in his hand. The bamboo tube felt a little light, and there was a layer of oil on the outside. It would float directly if it fell into the sea.

"Thanks, One-Eye."

According to his memory, he was called One-Eye.

He was also the first mate on the ship.

He had some martial arts skills, with a physique of 16.

Zhang Feng saw through it at a glance.

"Your straw hat looks pretty good." One-Eye looked at Zhang Feng's straw hat. He remembered that Zhang Feng didn't seem to have it when he boarded the ship.

But maybe he hid it in his arms and brought it up.

"I'll weave one for you when I find some bamboo grass." Zhang Feng replied casually, and he had really learned to weave straw hats in the Danjin world.

However, this telescope was actually useless to him.

Because he was the 'telescope'.

In such a vast ocean world, a minimum of 1000 meters of zoomed-in vision.

It was enough to discover many dangers.

Especially since he had reached a close-range viewing distance of 5000 meters in the Danjin world.

With that one glance, if a ship really came from afar, he could see the people inside clearly, and he could also see what they were 'saying'.

Very good.

Zhang Feng felt that his spoken language skills and visual range abilities could play a significant role here.

However, they couldn't be stacked with the telescope.

At that moment, Zhang Feng tried it, but it didn't work.

The telescope's range, under windless, rainless, and suitable light conditions, was an 'optimal visual range' of 800 meters.

The magnification was about 5x.

Far inferior to what he could see with his naked eyes.

"Here's your telescope." After Zhang Feng obtained the data for the telescope of this era, he returned it to One-Eye.

"You're not going to look anymore?" One-Eye pointed southwest. "Just glanced at it once?"

"We're landing anyway." Zhang Feng knew that the captain would land on every island they encountered.

In the past month, they had encountered 7 islands.

He wanted to go up and take a look at every one of them.

But more often, they were used as places to rest at night, and then to make a fire and eat some hot food.

Fires were not allowed on the ship, as stipulated by the captain.

"That's true." One-Eye stuffed the telescope into the gap in his cloth jacket. "We'll be landing on the island soon, come with me to carry firewood."

"Let's go." Zhang Feng followed him into the cabin.

It was a large room where firewood and food were stored.

There were also many quilts and bedding.

When they didn't see an island, they took turns sleeping here at night.

The first mate and the captain took turns at the helm.

Whoosh—

Picking up some damp firewood.

Zhang Feng followed One-Eye and a few others from the ship, leaving the cabin and coming to the side of the ship again.

At this time, they were still fifty meters away from the island.

Zhang Feng looked over and saw that the island was about a thousand square meters, with flowers, plants, and trees.

Splash—

At this moment, several strong men jumped into the water to check whether there were suitable anchor points near the island and whether there were reefs in this direction, etc.

Although the visibility was high in shallower waters, allowing them to see some of the seabed.

But if there were any hidden reefs or light refraction that caused people to misjudge, then there would be no 'afterwards'.

Although there wasn't such professional terminology in this era, it was never wrong to check more.

The ship was everyone's home, and no one would take it lightly.

At the same time.

Zhang Feng was also waiting for them to check while continuing to resonate, not letting go of any opportunity to strengthen himself, even while holding firewood.

Whoosh—

At this moment.

In the seawater near the island, a strong man also showed his head and gave a safe hand gesture to the ship.

"Land!"

The captain was full of spirit.

After all, he was the leader of more than fifty people, and he had a ship that wasn't small, so he had some pride.

Zhang Feng looked at it with some envy, and also wanted to get his own ship and crew when he had time in the future.

But now, practicing his skills was the priority, so he would just go with the flow for now.

… …

In the evening.

A fire was lit on the island to roast meat.

The staple food was still fish, as well as some fruits and wild vegetables from the island.

Zhang Feng had become accustomed to the wandering in the adventure world, as well as the random identities, and quickly integrated into the environment, experiencing the life of a crew member.

This time, it seemed to be a voyage, not a deserted island survival.

"Zhang Feng."

The captain came over at this time, still taking care of the youngest member of the ship, and handed Zhang Feng a bowl of fruit wine. "Have some to ward off the sea's dampness."

"Thank you, Captain." Zhang Feng took a sip of the fruit wine. It was sour and unpleasant to drink.

But he was used to it in his memory.

"Go to sleep if you need to at night." After giving the fruit wine, the captain greeted the crew members who had been busy all day, telling them to rest early.

The resting place was on the shore, not far from the ship.

There was a large rock here, and by slightly stacking wood and stones next to it, it was a very good haven from the wind.

Everyone was used to it, and began to find small quilts and grass mats to pad their temporary homes.

But just then.

A small boat of more than ten meters was coming from the distant sea.

"Outsiders… Get up first…" When the captain and others saw it, they suddenly lost their sleepiness.

"Hopefully they're not pirates…"

"Maybe it's a boatman passing by here…"

Many crew members also picked up their respective weapons, and some held bows, all on guard.

As the boat approached, it came to the shore.

More than a dozen men came down from the boat, all holding weapons and shields.

They seemed like regular soldiers, but their faces showed the appearance of desperate bandits, and some even had half a human skull hanging from their waists.

"Be careful, they're pirates!" The captain whispered, then took the firelock from his back.

After the dozen or so pirates landed, they walked straight towards Zhang Feng.

"Hand over all your gold and silver!"

The leading pirate completely ignored the captain's firelock, and his tone was full of toughness.

The other pirates were a little scared.

Zhang Feng glanced at it and clearly saw that the leader's physique was only around 19. Why wasn't he afraid of the gun?

"Don't try to fool me with fake stuff!"

He later solved Zhang Feng's doubts.

"Kid, I used to be a marine and have seen what a real gun looks like!"

"You…" The captain was exposed in one word and was a little restrained for a while.

"Captain…" Among the remaining crew members, only a dozen or so could fight, and the rest were old, weak, women, and children.

Now that they encountered these dozen or so pirates, they were already seven parts scared before fighting.

'Fake?'

At the same time, Zhang Feng didn't really know what a firelock looked like. Now that he heard the pirate say it, he knew that he had also been bluffed.

But whether it was real or fake, he would know if he tried it.

Thus.

In the next second, when the pirates were still psychologically intimidating the crowd, and the crowd was indeed afraid.

Zhang Feng took two steps, came to the captain's side, took the firelock from his hand, aimed it at the leading pirate, and pulled the trigger directly.

"Mommy!"

"Hide!"

Whoosh—

The pirates behind him were so frightened that they suddenly squatted down.

Including the leading pirate also squatting down holding his head.

He was actually bluffing the captain, betting that an ordinary captain couldn't get a real firelock.

But in the next second, the gun didn't fire.

They looked up at Zhang Feng with lingering fear.

Zhang Feng also looked at the firelock in his hand.

"You're right, it's really fake."

"Damn, kill him!" When a group of pirates saw that Zhang Feng dared to trick them, they burst into anger and rushed over with their machetes.

Zhang Feng didn't move his feet, but instead held the firelock in his left hand and pointed it like a spear, the muzzle accurately pointed at the leading pirate's Adam's apple, shattering his throat bone with a 'crack' attack.

Then he bent over and leaned forward, picked up the machete in his hand with his right hand, parried sideways, the blade touched the throats of two people, and instantly opened up the surrounded situation.

Taking another step forward, he killed from the right side.

With Zhang Feng's overclocked speed, as well as his understanding and prediction of human body functions.

These pirates were generally 16 ~ 20.

This horizontal slash to the right, in less than three seconds, sent five more people to the Yellow Springs.

Swish swish—

Zhang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time stood on the right side of the group of pirates.

The remaining pirates also stopped their forward steps.

Tap… …

Zhang Feng threw away the fake firelock and picked up another knife.

"Do you think you can live just because I don't have a gun?"

"Run away!"

"He may have sorcery!"

The remaining few people shouted in panic and turned around, wanting to run towards their boat.

'Sorcery? Could it be the side door left road?' Zhang Feng thought, but his steps didn't stop, overclocking erupted, and he instantly caught up with the last person.

The back of the knife landed on him.

Pa!

A crisp strike.

Zhang Feng hit him on the back, temporarily vibrating his nerves, causing his legs to lose strength and fall to the ground.

Chasing forward a few more steps.

Zhang Feng used the previous method, and in just a few seconds, knocked down all the remaining people.

And at this moment.

The captain and the others had long fallen into a daze, never expecting that Zhang Feng, who was usually silent, would be such a great expert?

Zhang Feng didn't care what they thought, simply looked at the few pirates on the ground begging for mercy and howling while clutching their backs.

"Tell me, what is sorcery?"

"I don't know…" The pirate in ragged clothes shook his head in a hurry, and directly betrayed his brother, saying: "I also heard him say it…"

As he spoke, he pointed to a strong man next to him.

The others also pointed at him.

Zhang Feng looked at him alone, "Tell me."

"I…" He trembled and pointed to the southeast direction, "I… I also heard that Liang Shuishi went to Denglin Island and offered sorcery to Island Master Lin…"

"Who is Liang Shuishi?"

Zhang Feng was completely in the dark, there was no relevant information in his memory.

"Where is he?"

"Lin Island is in the southeast…" He dared not hide anything, "Liang Shuishi is the Grand Supervisor of the Yu Dynasty."

'Oh, it's an official, I thought it was a nickname.' Zhang Feng understood.

"Zhang Feng…" At this time, the captain weakly opened his mouth in the distance, with some flattery: "Are you going to Lin Island… It's my grandfather's birthday, I'm going back… My grandfather lives on Lin Island…"

"Okay." Zhang Feng nodded, "Since it's on the way, that's great."

"Then them…" The captain looked at these pirates again, "What should we do? Should we take them to the ship and escort them to the government?"

"This is no trouble."

Zhang Feng slashed with a knife, and before the pirate in front of him could react, he cut open his throat.

"Run…" The remaining people wanted to run, but their legs wouldn't listen.

Zhang Feng turned the blade and walked towards them.

"Spare me…"

After killing the last pirate.

"This is more efficient, saving the trouble of tying them up, and saving the trouble of escorting them."

Zhang Feng shook the blood off the knife and looked at the captain and others in the distance, "What are you still stunned for? Get on the ship, sleep on the ship tonight.

Set sail overnight to celebrate your grandfather's birthday who lives on Lin Island."

"Okay… Okay…"

The captain and the others were horrified by this scene similar to slaughtering chickens and dogs, but they also felt that with such an expert on the ship, the next trip must be very safe.
