Chapter 433 Fox Ship
Adrian also did not expect that at this juncture when Mr. Tom initiated the invitation, the follow-up upgrade task of the [Boatman] sub-occupation would suddenly pop up on the panel.
But he wasn't prepared to turn down the mission.
After all, no matter what, the attribute bonus brought by upgrading the sub-career is quite delicious.
"Adrian, are you sure you're not joking?"
Mr. Tom looked at Adrian with some surprise.
The other people in Tom's studio, including Bingshan, Frankie, Granny Cocoluo, etc., also looked at this side with very surprised eyes.
Love, on the other hand, turned a blind eye to Adrian Sama's sudden thoughts, and still admired the peculiar structure of the 'Smoking Tom' with relish.
Mr. Tom looked at Adrian and asked again.
"Can you really leave a ship that you built yourself in Tom's workshop?"
The invitation just sent out was just a temporary idea.
Mr. Tom himself had no expectation that Adrian would actually agree to his request.
Let a legendary pirate with a bounty of nearly 2 billion Baileys leave his job as a pirate and come to his own studio, where he also works on shipbuilding...
No matter which angle you look at it, this is a very unrealistic thing.
It sounds as unrealistic as the admiral of the Navy Headquarters sitting around drinking tea and fishing all day long.
How could there be such idle navy/pirates?
Even though Mr. Tom always thought that White Ghost was a different kind of pirate who was kind to others and showed no airs.
But this level is too... close to the people, right?
"I'm not kidding, I don't have any aversion to building boats per se, not to mention that I did build a very small one-man boat before."
Adrian looked around, shrugged, and spoke slowly and leisurely.
"However, it may not be possible to keep it in Tom's studio. I may keep it as a personal collection, or..."
Destroy it!
Except for the Abyss.
Adrian also possesses [Summon: Flying Dutchman].
Even if we take ten thousand steps back, the Abyss is completely destroyed and the Flying Dutchman cannot fly at all.
Then Adrian would not sail on the Grand Line with the ship he built himself.
If you have the time, you might as well go to the Chambord Islands to cut down a section of the Yarkman mangrove tree, and then ask Mr. Tom to build a new Abyss!
"Tahahaha!"
Mr. Tom clapped his hands and laughed happily.
"Then in the next few days, I will teach you how to build a ship!"
"With pleasure."
Adrian smiled slightly.
With his current [Shipwork] and [Basic Ship Manufacturing and Maintenance], it would be a little troublesome to independently design and build a small to medium-sized sailboat.
But if there is the off-site guidance of Mr. Tom, the legendary shipbuilder of the Seven Waters.
Then there won't be any difficulty at all!
Don’t forget, this legendary shipwright built the Abyss in less than half a month!
This is a black technology boss with excellent shipbuilding skills!
The best shipbuilder on the sea!
After discussing the sea train plan with Mr. Tom for a while, I also asked for some knowledge about ship design.
Adrian said goodbye to everyone in Tom's studio, preparing to visit again tomorrow.
Seeing that it is getting late.
Adrian took Love with him to the central street of the Seven Waters Capital and found a hotel with good decoration specifications to stay.
"Adrian Sama, will we stay in the Seven Waters Capital for a few months?"
"Why do you ask that, Love?"
"Because we spent so much time on Balkimoa Island before."
"Don't worry, shipbuilding is not about studying, you can do it quickly!"
Adrian patted Love's head, then pushed the little fox to her own room to sleep.
"It's very possible that this can be done before the Mask Carnival ends."
……
In the next few days.
Adrian kept walking between the hotel and Tom's studio.
The boatman's knowledge that had not been picked up for many years was revived one by one under the guidance of Mr. Tom.
And thanks to the superb intelligence attribute bonus, Adrian learned the knowledge of shipwright with ease.
On the first day, Adrian's knowledge reserve met Mr. Tom's requirements.
The next day, the design of the small boat was also approved by Mr. Tom.
And on the third day, Adrian had already started building the boat!
Inside the deserted shipyard, the open space on both sides was filled with ordinary shipbuilding materials, such as planks, canvas, masts... and so on.
"Mr. Tom really took the trouble..."
Adrian nodded and directly used the ability of the ghost fruit.
Mimicry Ghost·Imitation Game.
A figure with a faint white fluorescence on its surface walked out of the void behind him, like a clone.
These mimic ghosts with simple consciousness, under the orders of the Creator, began to do some physical activities that took no brain at all: laying planks, polishing hulls, erecting masts, raising sails...
With the help of a mimic ghost.
In just half a day, a small sailboat with a simple appearance stopped in this empty dock.
Out of caution, Adrian did not deliberately design any Hyperion, Natural Selection, or Halbard...
He didn't even add any design concepts related to the "Ark Proverbs" to the sailboat.
You know, since a few years ago, when I got the Thunder Fruit, I also got the design drawings of [Ark's Proverbs].
This stack of extremely precious spaceship designs that might even usher in the "Great Interstellar Era" has been gathering dust in his collection for a long time.
Things like this are collected with the mentality of "just in case they are useful", but they are useless most of the time...
Back to business.
What was parked in the dock at this time was a brand new ketch. The bow looked like a vivid white nine-tailed fox. The overall hull showed a streamlined design. The surface of the hull was also painted in the main color of snow white, with white There is a big red heart painted on the sail, and there are several small and cute mini ghosts floating around the red heart.
Well, that's right.
Except for some basic and rational design work originating from Adrian.
The exterior design of this "Fox Ship" actually incorporates a lot of Love's personal ideas.
"This ship is just...perfect!"
Love, who slipped into the dock at some point, held her face in her hands and circled around the cute-looking 'Fox Ship', with little stars starting to appear in her eyes.
"What should we call it instead? Princess Love? Furry Girl? Pretty Fox? Heart of Heart?"
Just when Love was struggling with the name of the ‘Fox Ship’.
Adrian also received a task completion prompt from the panel.
[You have obtained a new profession - [Shipwright], your vigor has been slightly improved, strength +2, endurance +2, 3 free attribute points, and 1 skill point! 】
There is still a lot of experience points left after completing the S-level challenge mission of [Black Wrist Method].
[Shipwright] is a subsequent upgrade of the [Shipmaker] sub-profession, and there is no experience penalty.
Adrian invested his experience in upgrading without thinking, raising the [Shipwright] sub-job to the upper limit of the level, and gained a total of 20 strength, 20 endurance, 30 free attribute points, and 10 skill points.
Then invest the newly obtained free attribute points into the intelligence attribute.
Adrian's four main attributes at this time changed to: strength 1839, agility 1838, endurance 1256, and intelligence 3688.
The strength has once again been slightly improved.
'Balance exists in all things...'
Just as Adrian was immersed in the improvement of his strength.
Love's shout broke his thoughts.
"Adrian sama! What do you think this ship should be named?"
"Fox ship?" Adrian replied subconsciously.
"What a perfunctory name this is! Forget it! I'll think about it myself!"
"Tamamo-mae?"
"...Who is Tamamo Mae?"
Adrian had not noticed that there seemed to be no legend of the nine-tailed fox in this sea.
"It's a very beautiful golden-haired, white-faced nine-tailed fox!"
"A fox with nine tails? Never seen it..."
Love subconsciously looked at the bow of the fox ship.
"Actually, I wanted to say it a long time ago. Why do you, Adrian Sama, have to carve a fox with nine tails? Don't you think it's a little strange?"
"Not surprising at all."
Adrian said seriously.
"I think it looks very nice."
Are there any men in this world who don't like the nine-tailed fox?
"I can't imagine how beautiful a nine-tailed fox would be..."
Love, who has only one tail, means nine tails or something, which is completely heresy!
