Selecting Crew

"Very good! Count you in and stand behind me!" Long Xuan said.

"Yeah!" Miao Peipei showed a cute smile and walked over cheerfully. He looked like he had no scheming in mind. He really didn't look like a treacherous person.

Long Xuan looked at a hot and beautiful Gu cultivator behind him and said with a smile, "What unique skills do you have?"

Nie Qingcheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "I was the captain of Rose Ship and went to sea more than ten times. However, Rose Ship has sunk now and I have lost all the crew members."

"As a captain, I have rich experience in long voyages."

"I think I can fill the position of your first mate. Is this unique skill enough?"

Long Xuan nodded. He was lacking this kind of talent. It was perfect for a man who had been a captain to become his first mate.

"Then have you ever done anything bad?" Long Xuan looked at her and asked again.

This issue is the most important. If a person's heart is not right, then it doesn't matter how outstanding her abilities are.

Nie Qingcheng raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Who in this world has never done a bad thing? Have you never done a bad thing?"

Hearing this, Long Xuan immediately thought of a bunch of bad things he had done, such as corrupting Long Family a lot of things, cheating on his senior sister's body, and breaking Long Family's Sacred Tree, there were just too many.

Thinking about it this way, he was really committing a heinous crime, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.

Nie Qingcheng added, "I have done many bad things, but I can promise that I will never have any ill intentions towards my teammates. I think this is enough for you!"

She looked at the Integrity Gu, which showed no response at this time.

Long Xuan also looked at Integrity Gu, nodded and said, "You are right, you have passed the test, stand behind me!"

He turned to look at another beautiful Gu cultivator with a cunning look in her eyes. There was something weird in her eyes. This woman looked like a restless master.

Before he could speak, the woman took the lead and said, "My name is Ye Qingluan, and I am eighteen years old! I have a lot of unique skills!"

"But what is useful at sea is that I have a dolphin pet. My Da Bu can pull the boat and increase the speed of the boat."

"And Da Bu can also hunt for treasures on the seabed, and can also go to the front to detect whether there is any danger, and can also scare away many sea spiritual beasts. It has many functions!"

"And I only do bad things to bad people and never to good people. You have to have a lot of good people on your ship, so you can feel free to trust me."

After finishing speaking, she confidently looked at the Integrity Gu on Long Xuan's shoulder. As expected, Integrity Gu's eyes did not shine, and she smiled.

Long Xuan nodded. This unique skill is indeed good. If you can control a dolphin at sea, it will be of great use and can avoid many dangers.

Using it to pull a boat would be overkill, not to mention he doesn't lack that bit of power.

He also wants to bet on this girl.

Long Xuan nodded and said with a smile, "Is your surname Ye? This surname is good. I like people with the surname Ye. Since your surname is Ye, then I'll count you as one and stand behind me!"

Next, Long Xuan interviewed several people one after another.

A man Scarface named Qiu Tiandao became his fourth crew member. His unique skill was that he was good at hunting sea animals and had experience in hunting whales and sharks.

In order to be able to eat seafood at any time at sea, this person was admitted by Long Xuan without hesitation.

The fifth crew member is a handsome man named Shangguan Wuwu. He has good cooking skills and wants to apply for the position of chef. Long Xuan is a foodie, otherwise he would not pay so much attention to Miao Peipei's ability, so the cook Long Xuan did not hesitate to accept the job.

The sixth crew member is a burly man named Xiong Dali. It is said that this man once served as an artillery officer in the Xuan Yue Empire. He can fire artillery very accurately and claims to have never missed a shot in his life.

Seeing how loudly he boasted, Long Xuan recruited him.

The rest were all Gu cultivators with no fighting power but no special skills. After being tested by Integrity Gu and found to have passed the character test, Long Xuan arranged for them to become sailors.

At this time, he has recruited a total of nine crew members, which is a bit small. After all, his threshold for boarding the ship is too high. One person who has not done bad things is enough to block most of the Gu cultivators in the world.

Even the crew members he recruited at this time have basically done a few bad things, but they were all within his acceptable range.

So Long Xuan sent avatars to act separately, and even went to various places in Starsea City to recruit crew members. After wasting a day, they barely managed to recruit a hundred crew members with good character.

However, there are only two people with special abilities. One is an old ship doctor named Shi Jiefu.

This man has extremely superb medical skills, and in front of Integrity Gu, he is the only good person who has never done anything bad. Long Xuan is extremely satisfied with this man.

The other one is a peerless beauty named Leng Yan. She is known as the most beautiful girl in Starsea City. She was born in the Cold Clan, one of the five major families of Starsea City.

She is a scholar and knows a lot about the sea, including meteorology, so she applied for his position as a navigator.

Apart from her, almost all the remaining people recruited were male Gu cultivators.

Although many positions are still vacant, such as shipwright, helmsman...

But Long Xuan doesn't plan to wait any longer. It doesn't matter if he doesn't need these positions. He is fully qualified to do them himself.

It's almost time to recruit these people. The cabins for living in Divine Dragon Ship are almost full. After all, he is not building a very large ship.

Long Xuan then waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!"

Everyone behind him suddenly became excited and hurriedly followed. Everyone could not wait to go to sea.

Everyone walked to the beach with a smile, and Long Xuan soon placed the huge Divine Dragon Ship on the sea in full view of everyone.

The bottom of the boat hit the sea hard, causing waves.

Obviously, no one expected that he actually had a storage space that was huge enough to fit a large ship. Such a large ship could not be easily accommodated by just any storage equipment.

It can be said that it is impossible to carry it with you on a big ship. Gu World rarely has such a large storage capacity Spirit Artifact.

At this time, the first mate Nie Qingcheng looked at the ship and couldn't help but frown. Although the ship was very large, compared with other nearby ships, it could only be regarded as a medium model.

It is a bit difficult for a ship of this size to sail on the high seas.

"Is this your boat? Did you know that the waves in some sea areas are as high as several feet, or even more than ten feet, which can easily capsize your boat. I'm afraid your boat has no ability to enter the open sea." Nie Qingcheng said with a somewhat disappointed tone.

Hearing this Long Xuan was shocked. The wave was several feet high. Are you sure it was a wave and not a tsunami?

Is there any sea area in this world with waves comparable to tsunamis? This is a bit scary. Thinking about that kind of scene makes him feel horrified. It seems that the sea in this world is much scarier than he imagined.

"It doesn't matter. My boat has the function of a submarine. If it encounters a tsunami, it can just sink to the bottom of the water. No matter how big the waves are, it can't do anything to us."

"Uh! The submarine function is the function of the boat that can swim underwater like a fish. This is the second form of Divine Dragon Ship. However, many power systems cannot be used in this form, which will cause the speed to be much slower and extremely energy-consuming!" Long Xuan explained patiently.

This is the function he developed by referring to the submarine in his previous life. He used Gravity Formation to press the ship into the bottom of the water, then used the propeller as power, and then used a barrier to isolate the sea water. It was like an alien submarine. It didn't seem to be too difficult.

But it's not that difficult for him, but in this world, such an idea is simply unreasonable and can shock everyone.

At this time, all the crew members were shocked. The boat could actually swim underwater like a fish. This was the first time they had heard of this technology. Does such technology really exist in this world? Why have they never heard of it?

Everyone looked curious, as if the door to a new world had been opened, and they couldn't wait to run in, experience it, and see what kind of world it was deep under the sea.

"Is there a ship that can travel underwater? It's unheard of. There has never been such a ship since ancient times. You..."

Nie Qingcheng was about to say something questioning, but when she saw the Integrity Gu on his shoulder showed no reaction, she decisively shut her mouth.

There was a storm in her heart. Such incredible technology was actually real. When did this advanced technology appear? How come she never knew about it?

"Do you know how terrifying the water pressure in the sea is? Many of the wooden materials used on your boat are not the strongest, and there are many gaps that cannot prevent the penetration of seawater."

"If I guess correctly, you are planning to use the formation barrier to block the sea water, right?"

"But I can tell you clearly that the water pressure in the sea is much more terrifying than you think, not to mention that there are many spiritual fish and sea beasts in the water that collide."

"Your boat is too small. Even if the hull is engraved with reinforcement formations, it can't stop the astonishing water pressure, let alone the collision of sea beasts."

The speaker is Leng Yan. She is holding a thick book, her eyes are full of wisdom, and her whole body is full of intellectual beauty.

Long Xuan nodded. The navigator he chose was indeed knowledgeable enough and even knew about the high water pressure on the seabed.

You must know that the Gu cultivators in this world only know how to practice or fight, how can they understand these knowledge.

"Don't worry about this. Although my ship is small, its defense and speed are comparable to the largest ships in the world."

"Don't say that my boat dives into shallow waters, but my Five-Elements Barrier can withstand the water pressure even when it dives into the deep sea."

Long Xuan said very confidently.

The barrier on his ship is not simple, it uses Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation.

The barrier raised by Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation is a barrier of five elements of energy. The spiritual energy of the five elements circulates with each other and is endless. The barrier created is extremely difficult to break and can far exert an effect that the sum of five is greater than five.

Not to mention that he used Eye of Heavenly Secrets to portray Formation Inscription that was hundreds of times larger. How could its barrier be easily crushed by a mere amount of water pressure?

Leng Yan opened her mouth and was about to say something else. Seeing that Integrity Gu on Long Xuan's shoulder did not respond, she decisively closed her mouth.

A rare look of surprise appeared on her calm face, and a turmoil arose in her heart.

How is this possible? What happened to that boat? Why is it so weird? This is a bit unreasonable!

The captain had just made it clear that the defense of this small ship was exaggeratedly comparable to the largest ship in the world. Such an outrageous lie, but this Integrity Gu had no reaction at all. She was really shocked.

Is this Integrity Gu abnormal, or is this ship abnormal?

Leng Yan was stunned and couldn't bear it anymore. He quickly ran towards the ship, intending to carefully study what was going on.

However, when she ran onto the ship, she tried every means but failed to see a Formation Inscription. She couldn't help but look disappointed and secretly lamented that the ship's encryption method was very powerful.

In order to prevent the crew from seeing Formation Inscription and finding the ship's weaknesses, every ship has encryption means that can hide Formation Inscription so that the crew cannot see it with the naked eye.

So she subconsciously thought that the ship used very advanced encryption methods to prevent her from seeing clearly Formation Inscription.

Long Xuan showed a proud smile at this time. Unless she also had eyes that could magnify objects, she would be too exhausted to find out the secrets of this ship.

At this time, the rest of the crew were skeptical about the ship's ability to support long-sea voyages, and were considering whether to board the pirate ship.

However, seeing that the captain said that the ship's defense was comparable to the largest ships, Integrity Gu showed no response, so they finally put away their uneasiness and walked towards the ship together.

They would rather believe that there is a ship in this world that goes against common sense than believe that there is a Integrity Gu that is ineffective against lies.

Just as Long Xuan was about to walk towards the boat, he suddenly saw a figure walking towards the boat. He couldn't help but be stunned!

"Huh? What's wrong with you?"

"Stop!"

Long Xuan hurriedly stopped the strong man Spirit-Sealing Gu, but did not expect that this man was still following him.

"I want to get on the boat too, otherwise you will take the boat and leave, never to come back. The world is so big, where can I find you?" Yang Zhan looked into his eyes and said.

Long Xuan had no choice but to take out the Integrity Gu from Insect-Rearing Pouch again, and asked him, "Have you ever done anything bad in your life?"

Long Xuan looked at him with a serious expression. The Sha Qi on this man was soaring to the sky. He had obviously killed many people. There was probably a mountain of people who died in his hands.

Moreover, there is a ferocious Scarface on his face, which does not look like a good person.

Yang Zhan raised the corner of his mouth, looked at Long Xuan and said with a smile, "What is good and what is evil, can your Integrity Gu really tell the difference accurately?"

"Just like the group of people you just recruited, they said they have never done bad things. Do they really have never done bad things?"

"In order to refine the Gu, they let a group of Spirit Insect kill each other. Countless creatures died in their hands. In the eyes of Spirit Insect, they are bad people."

"When they eat chicken, duck, and fish, it seems to them to be a matter of course, but in the eyes of the chicken, duck, and fish, they are all bad people."

"So good and evil all depend on how individuals define it. They can escape Integrity Gu's detection just because they think they are good people. Since they didn't lie, then Integrity Gu will naturally not shine."

"Although there are already a mountain of people who have died at my hands, I consider myself a good person and I have never done anything bad!"

Yang Zhan looked at the Integrity Gu. Integrity Gu did not light up after hearing his words. He raised the corners of his mouth, missed Long Xuan, and walked onto the boat.

Long Xuan was stunned, Integrity Gu really didn't shine. This big killer who killed countless people turned out to be a good person. This is outrageous.

The outrageous mother opens the door for outrageousness, outrageousness is home!

Does it all depend on how one defines good or bad? This sentence is insightful and philosophical.

Long Xuan Thinking deeply, he suddenly thought of a question that was often asked in his previous life, that is, are there more good people or more bad people in this world?

His subconscious answer was half and half, but if eating chicken, duck, and fish is considered a bad thing, then there are no good people in this world!

Long Xuan shook his head and finally walked towards the ship.

At this time, all the crew members were excitedly walking around the ship and running into various cabins to admire this strange and weird ship.

This ship uses many modern designs from the past, and many things on the ship are incompatible with this world.

For example, modern toilets, water heaters, shower heads... they are all things they have never seen before.

All kinds of new things on the ship are enough to arouse the interest of all the crew members. They all look left and right like curious babies.

Especially Leng Yan, a scholar who is very interested in knowledge, was most interested in this strange ship and went to various ship rooms to study it.

The ship docked on the shore for about ten minutes. After all the crew members became familiar with the basic operations of the ship, with the command of Captain Long Xuan, the ship's sails slowly rose under the control of a group of sailors, and finally set sail.

Long Xuan stood on the special seat at the bow of the ship, clasping his hands behind his back and looking into the distance, letting the sea breeze ruffle his hair.

This is his first time to go to sea, and he is full of expectations for the next life at sea. He hopes that the next strange journey will not disappoint him...

Just when he was looking forward to the next life at sea, suddenly the sky darkened and there was a chaotic vibration in his ears.

He frowned and immediately looked back. The scene in front of him shocked his heart.

At this time, there was a huge Seven-Story Treasure Ship approaching from behind at an extremely fast speed.

This giant ship is so huge that it has seven floors, far exceeding the Five-Story Treasure Ship, the largest ship in the Starsea City port.

Compared with this giant ship, Divine Dragon Ship is like an ant and an elephant. The highest point of Divine Dragon Ship is far from reaching the deck of this ship.

The giant ship slowly passed by Divine Dragon Ship, and Divine Dragon Ship was swaying under the interference of huge waves.

At this time, the guard rails on the deck of this huge ship were crowded with Gu cultivators. They were densely packed. A rough estimate was that the number of Gu cultivators on board was at least ten thousand. However, looking at their clothes, it seemed that they were not from the same force or the same region.

What are the people on this ship going to do? Why are they heading in the same direction as me? Could it be that this is also a ship bound for Sky Island?

Long Xuan His scalp felt numb? He suddenly felt that it was a bit too little to lead such a hundred people.

Just a hundred people are not enough for me to make a fraction of my salary. Is it true that one person can drown a whole group of people by just spitting out his foam?

I encountered such a terrifying competitor when I first started traveling. How many ships of this level will I encounter when Sky Island waits? Long Xuan is not calm anymore.

At this time, everyone on Divine Dragon Ship raised their heads and stared at the giant ship, their eyes full of shock. Even if they lived on the seaside, this was the first time they had seen such a huge ship. It was so big that everyone was shocked.

The people behind the guardrail on the huge ship also looked down at Divine Dragon Ship below, pointing and pointing below. The crowd burst into laughter, and some people kept whistling at the bottom.

"Hahaha... Such a small boat. If you dare to go to Sky Island in such a small boat, aren't you going to die?"

"Haha... where did this little one come from? Don't rush to die at such a young age."

"Little beauty on the boat, this boat is not safe and can easily capsize. Do you want to get on my brother's boat? My brother loves you!"

"Hahaha..."

There was another burst of laughter on the giant ship...
