Pirate Journalist

Chapter 1 Lawless Place
The Great Route, Gaya Island, Magic Valley Town.

The sudden arrival of emperor cumulus clouds enveloped the entire sky, blocking all light.

People on the island have long been familiar with such phenomena.

Day is like night, regardless of the time of day.

The same is true for the bars here, which are noisy day and night.

"Murphy, you have to understand that you were recruited because of a lack of people, but you were injured twice in three days, so you are not suitable for this place, or even this island, and I, Nelson, am not a philanthropist."

The person who spoke was the bar owner Nelson, wearing a vest jacket, showing bronze-colored muscles, skin covered with tattoos, and murder weapons hanging on both sides of his waist, which were flintlock guns and long knives.

He patted the thin shoulder of the young man in front of him with his strong and strong palm, and said to the young man with a regretful expression on his face.

Nelson's image is not like a bar owner, but closer to a pirate.

But this is not the criterion for judging whether a person is a pirate.

In this magic valley town, there is no government, no navy, no order of any kind.

Killing is the melody, chaos is the keynote.

Most people would dress themselves up rough and look a little more powerful, so that they would not be troubled for nothing.

But there are always people who don't fit in with this atmosphere, and that's the case with the young man in front of him——Murphy.

As an ordinary person without any force, Murphy at least hoped that his appearance would look more powerful.

But his natural handsome appearance, wearing a pair of simple round-frame glasses, the whole image reveals a gentle temperament, coupled with his extremely thin body, one can't help but make people suspect that even if this body is mosaic, It is impossible to hide the fragility and frailty in his bones.

He himself often wondered if this body could be blown down if there was a strong wind unique to the great route.

"Boss, you are right. If I had other options, I would never come to this island. No matter what, thank you for taking me in during my most difficult time!"

Murphy breathed a long sigh of relief. Although he was a little uncomfortable, there was no surprise on his face, obviously he had expected it.

He understood Nelson's approach very well. If he was the boss, he would not wait for a month to fire him.

Prior to this job, he had tried several other jobs, all of which were quickly dismissed.

The reason is that the fighting on the entire island is very serious, and innocent people may be affected at any time, and his physique, which is not good in the 21st century, is completely powerless to protect himself here.

For an employee who is very vulnerable and often lies in a hospital bed, no boss will want to keep him.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't find a job, he would never have come to a bar where the brawls were the worst.

To his surprise, the bar owner was unexpectedly nice to him and kept him for a full month before he fired.

"This is your monthly salary. If you have the chance, leave this island."

Nelson patted Murphy's shoulder again, looked around the noisy surroundings, and then slipped a bag of Baileys into Murphy's hand before turning and leaving.

Murphy carefully felt the weight of the bag of Baileys, and quietly put it into the lining of his clothes.

This is indeed a month's salary, without any reduction, but his workload is not up to standard at all.

This is kindness, especially in this illegal area, it is especially heavy.

Murphy looked at Nelson's back, and secretly made up his mind that he would repay this kindness if he had the chance.

"Let's just leave. Anyway, there is no luggage to pack, so I won't cause Nelson any trouble."

Murphy muttered as he walked away from the din of the bar.

Although it was noon, it was pitch black outside the house, and the air was no better than that of a bar, it was all cloudy and oppressive.

Magic Valley Town is rightly at the front end of the great route.

Those who pursue their dreams have already set sail again, while the frustrated people hold rum in their arms, stay here and continue to wander.

The darkness brought by the emperor cumulus cloud not only covers the island, but also covers the hearts of the people.

Murphy couldn't help but look up, he knew that Sky Island was up there.

When it floats away, Gaya Island will return to its original state, and the light will still shine on the earth.

But what about him?
When will he usher in his glory?

About two months ago, he traveled to this world that fascinated him.

The process was very uneventful. I didn't experience any darkness or natural or man-made disasters. I turned off the lights and went to sleep. When I woke up, I was already lying in the alley of Mogu Town.

When he first arrived here, he recognized this world, and his body returned to his 15-year-old youth.

After a little inquiring, he knew that Roger had just become king last year. Based on his understanding of this place, Roger would surrender himself this year because of his terminal illness, and following that would be the magnificent era of great pirates.

He daydreams about the turbulent winds and clouds of the new era, and his ambition is suddenly aroused in his chest. If he can't leave his own legend on the sea, wouldn't it be a waste of time to come?
Unfortunately, within half an hour, the reality that followed hit him hard.

I'm hungry and have nothing to eat.

Thirsty, no water to drink.

This chaotic town can't tolerate any peace, and people will suffer disasters when they walk on the road.

For a powerless person like him, life in this place full of violence is not only difficult but also dangerous.

If you can't even eat enough, how can you talk about becoming stronger?

Murphy thought, he was probably the worst one in the crossing army.

After much deliberation, he decided to leave Magic Valley Town to find another plan.

But now, he was on his way to the pier, planning to find a place near the pier to temporarily settle down.

At the pier of Gaya Island, there are mostly pirate ships, and occasionally merchant ships with sufficient force pass by.

It's just that this kind of merchant ship often carries a permanent pointer to the destination. For Gaya Island, they always supply a little bit and leave immediately.

He wants to leave here, the only way is the merchant ship.

The best way is to live near the pier and observe whether there are merchant ships coming at any time.

"This money should be enough to leave Gaya Island!"

It is naturally impossible for a merchant ship to take people away for free, which is why Murphy has been saving money and earning money since he came to this world for two months.

In order to make quick money, he even risked his time to lead the way for the new pirates in his spare time, but unfortunately he lost all his money and got injured even if he didn't make any money.

When I was injured or ill, I picked up the long-lost pen holder and submitted several manuscripts to Shijing, but unfortunately there was no news.

"Fortunately, I have Nelson's assistance, otherwise I'm not sure how long it will take to raise enough money."

Touching Bailey hidden on his body, Murphy was once again thankful for being able to collect the fare early.

In this ghostly place, staying for a second longer may lead to danger.

such as.

"Hey, kid, do you have anything valuable on you, let me buy a glass of wine?"

Murphy watched in bewilderment as a strong and drunk man stopped in front of him.

Although he kept himself clean and tidy, he was dressed very frugally, and there were even patches on his clothes.

If the person in front of him just wants to bully ordinary people, he can still understand.

However, the other party asked for money directly. No matter how you look at it, he didn't seem like someone who could rob money.

"What are you pretending to do, don't hide it! I saw it, Nelson stuffed a lot of Baileys for you! Hehe!"

The brawny man smelled of alcohol and had a ferocious smile on his face. Although he walked swayingly, he came towards Murphy without hesitation.

"You read it wrong! I really didn't..." Murphy argued while stepping back.

This money is his hope to leave this illegal area, and it is also the starting point for him to plan for the future.

Unexpectedly, the strong man didn't care about Murphy at all, he jumped forward, grabbed his neck with his right hand, and lifted him up like a chicken.

Then he pulled Murphy's tattered clothes with his left hand, and Bailey immediately fell all over the floor.

"Although it's not much, but if you can make a little contribution to my uncle's drinking business, you should be grateful to Dade! Hehehaha! Get the money first, and I will deal with you later! Don't run around, or your legs will be broken!"

The strong man yelled at the angry Murphy, then threw him aside like trash, and concentrated on picking up Bailey.

The movement here immediately attracted the surrounding crowd, all kinds of eyes looked over, some pity, some ridicule, some curiosity, some disdain, and many people heard the sound of Bailey landing directly As they moved closer, they also began to pick up coins on the ground, and the whole scene gradually became chaotic.

"hateful!"

Murphy was suddenly thrown to the ground, feeling dizzy and as if his body was about to fall apart.

But it's the heart that hurts more than the body.

He was obviously just a drunk, but he couldn't hold back even for a while.

With all his strength, he couldn't even break free from the opponent's palm.

This body is too weak!
Although after coming to this world, he wanted to become stronger and change his current situation every moment, but there was nothing like this moment.

He wants to become stronger, stronger than anyone else.

Knock down the person in front of you to the ground!
To make it impossible for anyone to stand on top of him!

Murphy lay on the ground, clenched his fists and hammered the sky a few times, as if he wanted to shatter the reality in front of him.

His eyes were also fixed on the sky, but his eyes gradually became distant.

The sunlight penetrated the darkness, and the light was reoccupying the island inch by inch.

Ticumulus left.

Murphy found out.

The day is still the day.

But there is an extra virtual screen in front of his eyes.
