Superpower manga artist Kobayashi Narumi

Lin Chengshi lay down with his eyes closed, and finally fell asleep.

In a daze, a thought flashed in his mind, sleeping in a dream, will he dream again?

He was not dreaming. When he woke up, he felt the shaking of the ship. It turned out that the ship had already sailed out of the black port when he fell asleep.

"Master Francis just sent someone to order you to take you to the restaurant when you wake up." John said abruptly.

"Then let's go." Lin Chengshi stretched and bent over to put on his shoes.

There are quite a few people on this boat.On the way to the restaurant, Lin Chengshi met many people.As expected, as long as they saw Lin Chengshi, they all paid him "attention salute".

Gradually, he got used to this setting, Lin Chengshi thought, so he really has a very beautiful face.

Lin Chengshi followed John to the restaurant on the ship. The restaurant is quite large and decorated in a medieval style.

On the wooden dining tables, under the candlelight, there are barbecues and ale, which look very attractive.The sailors filled the dining room, laughing loudly and toasting.

John brought Lin Chengshi to one of the tables. This table was completely different from those who looked like crew members, sitting at the innermost table clearly.It was Francis who sat on the main seat.

The others were not wearing crew uniforms. Lin Chengshi guessed that they were not crew members, and they were probably Francis' subordinates.

Perhaps there are still a few members of the Nirvana Army inside.

The Nirvana Army is the villain force described by Lin Chengshi. They were established by the former part of the defeated Phoenix Kingdom, and they have been trying to revive the subjugated country.This organization has always kept itself hidden in the shadows, and only its official members know the true purpose of its establishment.

Francis is a full member of the Nirvana Army, though not all of his men know this.As for the sailors who participated in this operation, they may even be hired, thinking that they are working for a criminal gang.

The Nirvana Army is not short of money, but they still want to disguise the acquisition of this scroll as an indiscriminate robbery.After all, this scroll is related to their next important plan...

It may be because Lin Chengshi came too late, the whole table drank a lot of wine, and no one paid attention to Lin Chengshi who suddenly appeared.Some people may have noticed, but when they realized that Lin Chengshi was brought by Francis' request, no one bothered to ask.

Lin Chengshi also calmly said that he should eat and drink.

Although it is summer, the sea at night is still very cold.He never misses an opportunity to replenish his calories.

"Although I didn't ask about your background, you should know in your heart that you have to confess sooner or later. Otherwise, I won't let you join us." Francis suddenly spoke, and Lin Chengshi knew that he was speaking to him.

"And you who have seen my face, if you don't join us, you can only become a dead person, which can be reassuring." Francis said slowly, although he smiled, there was a murderous intent in his eyes.

Is this moment still here, Lin Chengshi thought.On this boat full of Francis' own people, he was caught in the urn, no wonder Francis waited until now to attack.

Isn't the Black Star Auction a good thing, and the Nirvana Army is also the No. [-] villain who is bound to perish. Did he jump from one fire pit to another?

Lin Chengshi felt no fear at all.If they were just a gang of robbers, then the threat was probably real.But if it's Francis, the threat is too much.

In the eyes of Francis, Lin Chengshi didn't know Francis' true identity at all, nor did he know their real goal. Lin Chengshi really couldn't think of any need for him to silence him.

However, Lin Chengshi still had to put on a face to deal with it. He said, "The reason why I came here is not because I keep it secret, but because it is so bizarre that no one will believe it. If you want to hear it..."

Lin Chengshi paused, and then said: "I want to tell you alone if I can go to my room later."

"Oh? Weird?" Francis raised his eyebrows. "Okay, I want to hear how weird it is."

Lin Chengshi got up and left the table, saying: "Waiting for your presence."

He had to hurry back and make the necessary preparations.

Lin Chengshi walked towards his room.

Perhaps it was because the ship had already started, and Francis was no longer afraid of Lin Chengshi escaping. This time, Lin Chengshi was able to move freely on the ship without John's supervision.

But he didn't grope around, but went straight back to the room.

He closed the door and opened the wardrobe.As he had just observed, although there were no personal clothes in the closet, the basic clothing required by the crew was complete.Lin Chengshi quickly put on a warm jacket, gloves, shoes and socks.

Then he looked out the window.

His room had a porthole looking out to the sea.Now the ship should be heading west along the northern coastline of the Kingdom of Insects. Apart from the coast, you can also see distant mountains.

Lin Chengshi looked out the window for a while, thought for a while, and blew out the only burning candle in the room.

So when Francis came, he could only vaguely see Lin Chengshi's back in the dark.

In the dim room, only a beam of moonlight from the porthole illuminates the outline of Lin Chengshi, with his back to Francis and wearing a hood.

"So?" Francis was noncommittal about Lin Chengshi's mystification, "I hope your story is worthy of my wasting sleep time to listen."

"Are you here alone?" Lin Chengshi asked.

"Of course, I wouldn't even be on guard against a child who hasn't awakened magic power." Although Francis was cautious, he was confident enough.

"What a pity," Lin Chengshi sighed softly, "you should be more careful."

Before the words fell, five short muffled sounds came out in the room.

This sound is very unfamiliar to the residents of Shenen Continent in this era.

Lin Chengshi is more familiar with it.

It was the sound of muffled gunshots.

Francis barely had time to think, and at the moment he froze, he lost consciousness.

Lin Chengshi turned around, holding a small revolver in his hand, and wearing the pure white mask on his face.

As early as he saw this pistol at the Black Star Auction for the first time, Lin Chengshi decided to get it.Fortunately, because of the chaos that Francis and the others created, he got it with almost no effort.

Although he is not good at cold weapons, Lin Chengshi regularly goes to the shooting club to practice.This revolver, which doesn't quite fit the background era of comics, was designed out of Lin Chengshi's personal hobby.

Now, few people in Shenen Continent know about pistols.It is a magic weapon thousands of years ago.

The pistol that Lin Chengshi brought along looks and feels like a real revolver.But it does not need bullets, but can compress air and launch air bombs.

It can preload bullets, point the gun at the gas you want to store, and pull a bolt on the side to compress this part of the gas into bullet storage.Its only downside is that it can only preload five bullets.

As for the working principle of this gun, it can only be said that in the worldview with superpowers, there is no need to talk about science, and all questions are magic.

When Francis and the others released poisonous gas at the auction, and Francis also put on an isolation mask, Lin Chengshi realized that this poisonous gas was a substance that could cause harm to Francis, so he secretly filled the air in the auction with a pistol as a bullet.Now that he fired the bullet, the compressed air diffused again, quickly filling the small cabin.Only Lin Chengshi, who put on the mask in advance, was spared.

"I'm sorry, Fran." Lin Chengshi was a little flustered that he had brought down this shrewd spy so easily, and even called him the nickname he gave to the characters in his works as the author.

Lin Chengshi re-lighted the candle, and under the light of the candle, dragged Francis to the bed and put him in a comfortable posture.

"By the way, Fran, you might want to lend me your clothes." Lin Chengshi took off Francis' coat. It was a dark brown robe, which looked very light. A magic weapon of high quality.By reading these magic patterns, Lin Chengshi learned that the clothes are waterproof, fireproof, dustproof, strong and not easy to break.

Fortunately, poisonous gas was used. Lin Chengshi thought that ordinary bullets might not be able to hurt him.

Lin Chengshi touched the inner pocket of the robe, and the scroll that Francis took so much trouble to snatch was inside.Lin Chengshi opened it and took a look. The contents inside looked like a heavenly book to people in this world, but he knew exactly what was written in it.

After all, the content of this scroll was designed by him.

Lin Chengshi glanced at it, then casually threw this expensive treasure on Francis' chest.

This thing is useless to him, but a hot potato. If he takes it away, Francis will really hunt him down to the ends of the earth.

I was going to try to make ends meet with the tarps in the closet, but now that I have this robe from Francis, it will be easier.

Lin Chengshi tied the cuffs of the two sleeves of the robe into a knot, and fastened the neckline with a tie.Then he tied the two sleeves together and put them around his neck.

The next step is the crucial step, Lin Chengshi feels a little nervous.He had no theoretical knowledge, and this was his first attempt.

His two hands grasped the lower edge of the robe, first raised it high, then dropped it suddenly, the robe swelled up and filled with air.

Lin Chengshi quickly tightened the lower edge of the robe and fixed it on his belt.

A simple life jacket will do the trick.

At this time, Lin Chengshi was wearing warm clothes, and there was barbecue in his belly, which was continuously providing him with heat.The ale he had just drank warmed him, and his slightly tipsy state fueled his courage.

The people on board were either drunk or fell asleep, it was midnight outside, and even the moonlight could not dispel the gloom of the night.They haven't left the Bearclaw Islands too far, which means that the fleet won't risk being chased by the Black Star Auction to stop and look for an insignificant person like him.

But they had been away from the Bearclaw Islands for a while, so that they were close to the coast of the mainland, which is not far from the retreat where the protagonist of this comic is.

"It's a good opportunity." Lin Chengshi muttered, tailor-made as if a comic plot, and I would be sorry for the audience if I didn't run away.

There is no need to go out and make troubles.

Lin Chengshi raised the muzzle of the gun and pressed the trigger towards the porthole in the room.

After a few shots, the window shattered in pieces.Lin Chengyu wrapped himself in a quilt and slammed into the window. The cold air mixed with the smell of seawater hit his face.

With a mere height of a few meters, Lin Chengshi could only try to keep his body perpendicular to the sea.The next moment, he fell into the sea.

Take off the mask on your face, the sea water at night is freezing cold.

Don't cramp, Lin Chengshi prayed, he kept his head and neck above sea level, and swam towards the coast.

In the real world, Lin Cheng is pretty good at swimming.But he knew very well that swimming in the sea at night was an act of courting death.If it wasn't in a dream, he would never have done such a thing.

He kept replaying the tidal laws of the sea in his mind, and wondered if there were sharks in Shenen Continent.

Lin Chengshi finally managed to swim to the shore.

From a rational point of view, he should not have swam for too long, maybe only 10 minutes, but he felt that he had swam his entire life.

To be honest, Lin Chengshi no longer wants to go to the beach at night.

You know, he is very lucky. Today's sea is calm and the temperature is not too low.

But he was still out of breath and half dead from exhaustion.

After Lin Chengshi came ashore, he walked and crawled away from the coast shivering to prevent being swept away by the sea.

He restored the "lifejacket" to its original shape, and shook the water on it. The quality of the clothes was really good, and as the water drops fell off, it immediately became dry again.Lin Chengshi took off the wet clothes that had absorbed the sea water, threw them into the sea, and then put on the robe to maintain his body temperature.

Fleeing from the sea is only the first step, and then he has to find a family to provide him with a safe shelter.

Since this place is very close to the hometown of the protagonist in his novel, why not find the protagonist.After all, the protagonist he set up is kind-hearted and will definitely lend a helping hand.

It's a pity, it seems that this time Lin Chengshi's good luck has run out.

While he was climbing the mountain, it rained suddenly.Lin Chengshi, who was not considered physically strong, exhausted his physical strength in the wind and rain, and finally his eyes darkened and he fell to the ground.
