Option 1: Refuse politely and return the knife to Tashigi. (Completion reward: 1 special item from a random plane)
Option 2: Take the knife and say thank you. (Completion reward: random skill experience +1)
Sometimes, the options given by the system always make Vivian feel a little confused.
Just like now.
He really couldn't understand why refusing to use Tashigi's sword would lead to a certain degree of danger, which would cause him to take on another mission.
If I don't want this knife, will Dashigi get angry and suddenly attack me and kill me with one blow
Of course, even if you think this way, you still have to choose the option that should be chosen.
Vivian reached out and took the saber that Dashiqi handed to him, and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Next second.
You chose option 2, and you will be rewarded: Craftsman Experience +1
Listening to the prompt in his mind, Vivian looked down at the long knife in his hand.
The knife that Tashigi gave him could not be an ordinary saber.
The hilt was green, the scabbard was pure white, and the scabbard was inlaid with ten golden decorations that looked like buttons. If he remembered correctly, this thing should be called "Xiaoye Shigure".
"This woman lent me her most cherished knife..."
Could it be that you like me
Vivian looked at Dashiqi's erratic eyes, which were even afraid to look her in the face, and she suddenly became confused again.
strangeness..
If that's true, then how did she fall in love with me
Although he knew that he was quite handsome, but according to the setting in the original work, Tashigi shouldn't be the type of person who would be obsessed with women, right
"Or maybe it's my illusion?"
Shaking his head, Vivian returned to the cabin with a knife in hand.
...
ever!
Once upon a time!
In the bedroom, Vivian was polishing flintlock bullets carefully. Through the oil lamp, beads that looked like lead bullets but were not like lead bullets were rolling on the floor, reflecting faint light.
With the blessing of his experience as a craftsman, Vivian is not only able to modify and make his own ships, but also has extremely high attainments in guns and other equipment. Especially after his craftsman level was accidentally raised to the intermediate level in recent times, it was extremely easy for him to create an improved version of the gun that can carry "armor-piercing bullets".
Vivian called it the "Alfred Sniper Rifle," naming it after his own last name.
Of course, armor-piercing bullets are actually 20 to 30 percent more powerful than ordinary lead bullets. But even so, without the bonus of this bullet, Vivian would not have been able to penetrate Ashburn's body when he was on the uninhabited island that day.
"I hope this thing will be used less often."
It's not very useful against the strong, but it can be used against the weak with one shot each.
The feeling of killing is really uncomfortable.
After dismantling the firearm he was carrying and placing it in his uniform jacket, Vivian then lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to take a nap.
The subsequent process of escorting the prisoner was completely different from Vivian's guess.
calm.
Unprecedented peace.
Nothing happened at all along the way.
He originally thought that they would encounter many emergencies on the way. At the very least, a few sea king creatures would jump out and attack the warship. However, until Vivian sent Bucky and others to the Impel Down Prison, no danger occurred.
This made Vivian feel a little uneasy.
"Maybe this is a sign of a coming storm?"
He thought so.
That night, on the way back.
Mission: Take Buggy to Impel Down Prison (Completed)
Obtain follow-up mission: The warship will stay in the calm sea for one night (currently the third ring)
Vivian:
Take the boat out to the doldrums for a night
What the hell is this operation
Seeing this follow-up task pop up, Vivian frowned immediately and his expression began to look hesitant.
His intuition told him that if he really did what was described in this mission, he would probably not be able to sleep tonight.
But if I disobey the order, it means I will give up the reward for this mission, and all my previous efforts will be in vain.
Vivian naturally didn't want to give up. Even though he wanted to play it safe and always acted in a timid way, he couldn't take the beating from Long in vain.
So Vivian said, "Let's rest in the calm sea tonight."
"Yes! Sergeant Vivian."
In the Calm Zone, although the number of sea king creatures is astonishing, thanks to the support of science and technology, warships with seastone embedded in the bottom of the ship do not have to worry about being attacked.
It is also because of this that, compared to the Grand Line and the four seas, it is safer to dock warships in the doldrums.
Not long after, the helmsman docked the ship near a reef archipelago and glanced at the sky which had become completely dark. Apart from the brilliant starry sky, the visibility around him was basically pitch dark.
Leaving two errand soldiers to patrol and keep watch on the deck, the rest of the people returned to their rooms in the cabin and fell asleep.
That night, around two in the morning.
Vivian, who didn't dare to fall asleep at all, walked to the bow, lit a cigar, and started smoking.
I don’t know how much time passed.
"Um?"
Vivian put out the cigarette butt in his hand and threw it into the sea. He then cast his gaze towards the distant sea level. A huge ship with many lanterns hanging on its hull suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
"Sergeant Vivian, there is a ship approaching!" Holding a telescope in his hand, one of the errand soldiers in charge of reconnaissance hurriedly said to Vivian.
"I am not blind, I can see."
Vivian frowned.
And at the same time.
Mission: Keep the warship in the calm waters for one night (completed)
Option 1: Drive the warship over. (Completion reward: Overlord Haki)
Option 2: Lower a lifeboat and approach the unknown ship alone. (This is the fourth ring of the follow-up task)
Option 3: Stay where you are and wait for the ship to leave. (Completion reward: random attribute +1)
Note: Once you choose the third option, the subsequent task will end in failure.
"Forehead.."
In other words, choosing the first option will increase the difficulty again on the existing basis and open two ring tasks at the same time.
If you choose the second option, you will proceed to the current fourth ring follow-up tasks.
Vivian touched her chin.
"Let's ignore that ship for now. If anything else happens, come down and let me know."
After saying that, he yawned, turned around and walked into the cabin under the watchful eyes of the three clerks.
