At the end, yo...

Finally a familiar prop!

Could this last "Rubik's Alchemy Cube" be the deceitful "forbidden object" that sucked away thirty years of his life?

He didn't have time to speak.

At this time, Colin said with an expression of embarrassment, "I know that predicting the location of these super-level items will definitely require a heavy price..."

He hesitated for a long time, and then said: "You are my friend, and I don't want to hide it from you... I broke into the 'Ghost Ship Island' before and consumed all the valuable things on me, and then I barely escaped.

After half a life, even the huge Hex storage space was corroded and destroyed by the undead energy... The sixth-level magic core in my hand was also picked up on the Ghost Ship Island, so...

.”

so,

Are you ready to be a wolf with nothing?

Raymond was really convinced.

This guy's shot is a sixth-level magic core. From anyone's point of view, this is a super fat sheep. But who would have thought that this guy's entire wealth is only this magic core...

However, is Raymond the kind of person who only sees money and has low taste?

obviously...

Yes!

He is the kind of guy who can't afford to be early without any profit, and plucks his hair when the goose is too late!

Never do anything that is not beneficial.

What's more, no matter how you look at it now, you will lose a treasure.

Although that thing is useless to me, I can't doubt that it will be of high value in the future.

"I don't have any money...tsk tsk...this is going to be a bit difficult."

Originally Raymond wanted to get some benefits from Colin, but now he changed his mind.

In addition to hard currency like magic core,

What he valued more was the engineering knowledge in Colin's mind!

Knowledge is priceless, and the value of the scientific and technological knowledge in his mind is simply immeasurable.

How can it be easy to survive from the "Ghost Fleet"?

How could it be possible for someone who just casually took out the blueprint of the peak musket?

How could it be so easy to transform one's own body into that "Kuluz Alchemy Body"?

No matter what, you can just be a drawing output person, right?

...

"That...is it really embarrassing for you?"

Colin naturally knew that his request was a bit rude, so he glanced at Raymond with some embarrassment.

Without the beard covering his young face, Colin is actually a young man about the same age as Raymond. At this moment, he has no confidence to ask for help from others.

Raymond happened to have "Rubik's Alchemy Cube" in his hand, and he immediately paid attention to it.

He thought for a moment and pretended to sigh: "These things are very complicated just by hearing their names. It would be difficult to predict the precise target... I'm afraid."

"Hey...I know that too."

The hopeful look in Colin's eyes became weaker and weaker.

Even if he guessed that accurate prediction might not be as difficult for the guy in front of him as expected,

He didn't have much hope, and sighed: "Now that I think about it, even if you helped me predict the location of those things, the chance of my survival is very slim. If their location is in the Endless Sea or somewhere farther away,

In the sea, my lifespan is not long enough for me to survive until I find something."

Originally, he came to the capital to find Raymond, just to seize the last hope of survival.

Now that people have found and seen hope, it is also time to despair and give up hope.

"Well... let me just say it straight away!"

After all, Raymond wanted to trick people into boarding the ship, so naturally he couldn't just rely on deception.

"Actually, I am here not to open a divination shop. I am here to save the navigators on my ship..."

After a pause, he continued: "My ability to 'predict' is getting weaker and weaker now, and I use it less and less every time... Therefore, except for my own crew, I will no longer predict for others."

Colin: "Is your ability to predict the number of times limited?"

Raymond: "Absolutely."

Colin raised his eyebrows, feeling a little confused. From the tone of these words...it seemed like things were about to turn around?

But...unless those things appear in front of you immediately, water from afar cannot quench your thirst for nearness, and even knowing the coordinates is of little significance.

He thought about how this guy was trying to turn over the musket blueprint two years ago, and he looked weird and said, "You don't want me to get you the battleship blueprint, do you?"

"No, you misunderstood."

Raymond shook his head.

Just one drawing?

No, only children would choose this way.

Of course, adults need people and drawings.

He cleared his throat and said: "I happen to be short of a battleship repair expert on my ship. I would like to invite a master with advanced engineering expertise like you to become my crew."

"You want to recruit me as your crew?"

Colin looked a little weird, it turned out that this guy paid this attention.

He pursed his lips and said, "Also, to correct a problem, I passed the Master of Engineering certification exam when I was thirteen years old... My current professional title is a world-certified master engineer."

He doubted whether the other party really understood what a master of engineering meant and how rare it was. Also, recruiting a master of engineering to be a shipwright would be the top level that only the "Endless Seven Emperors" level super fleet could enjoy.

Luxurious configuration...

"Master of Engineering?"

When Raymond heard this, his eyes immediately glowed like a wolf.

Damn... I found a treasure.

Of course he knows what "grandmaster" means,

Except for those old guys in Hex City who are ‘Honorary Grand Masters’, Grand Master is the highest title for engineering technicians in the world of navigation!

Raymond thought about Lulu. Could it be that this Colin is also a child prodigy?

But why is this guy so unknown in the game? Apart from appearing in the "Vulture Pirates Dungeon", this guy has no way of showing up in the later stages of the game.

"Eh...that's not right."

He thought about it again, and suddenly he was enlightened. If this guy hadn't met him now, he would definitely not be able to find the things he was looking for.

Doesn't that mean he must die?

Thinking about it this way... I seem to have saved another character who was destined to die in the original game plot?

In any case, since Colin is a master-level engineer, we can't let him slip away!

Raymond nodded and said directly: "Those things you mentioned flashed through my mind. Maybe I can predict the location of one or two things. But, you know, if you can promise me

A small request... Even if it takes decades of my life, I will try my best to help you find those things..."

Colin didn't have much hope, and said: "If you can really help me find any item, as a reward, it's okay for me to be a boatman for you. Of course, if the coordinates of those things are too far away...I'm afraid

I can’t live that long.”

Raymond's eyes lit up: "You agreed?"

When Colin heard this, his heart thumped, and he suddenly felt like he was being deceived.

He thought for a moment, if he couldn't find those items and his life would be lost, what room would there be for negotiating terms?

He said sternly: "If you really help me predict the location of those things, and I can find them in my limited life and survive...then it's okay for me to help you as a boatman."

Raymond's face lit up with joy, he slapped his thigh and said, "Okay! It's a deal!"

Colin was shocked by his attitude.

"One...one word is settled."

No matter what, I feel like...this guy seems to be deliberately setting a trap for himself.

...

The sale is concluded,

The "divination" activity of Dance Master has begun.
To be continued...
