Chapter 4792: Honorary vice-captain
Translator: 549690339
“No matter what, I have to thank young hero Lin for saving our lives on behalf of everyone on the ship. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t be standing here safe and sound.” Ao Tianba lowered himself and bowed deeply to Lin Yi.
Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene as if they had just seen a ghost. The captain was supposed to punish Lin Yi on behalf of Ren Zhongyuan, so why did it suddenly turn into this?
Also, he said that he was thanking Lin Yi for saving his life on behalf of everyone. What was that about? what just happened?
Everyone was confused. Ren Zhongyuan looked at ao Tianba in shock. He could not help but jump out and ask for an explanation. However, before he could speak, his uncle ao gave him a stern look and shut him up.
“No need. We’re all in the same boat. I’m only doing this for self-protection.” Lin Yi said with a wave of his hand. To be honest, if there were other ways to ensure the safety of ning Xuefei and the others, he might not be willing to stand up for them after what ao Tianba had done.
Even if Lin Yi was willing to help, the thing might not be willing to help him this much. After all, he was facing Dragon, his relative! Who the hell would help a human deal with their relative? even if it was a distant relative, they still had the word “Dragon” in their names!
“Young hero Lin, you’re too humble. No matter what, I have to thank you properly.” Ao Tianba was still very sincere as he invited,””I also know that with your abilities, it’s a waste for you to be a lookout for dangerous situations. So, as the captain, I sincerely invite you to join my warship. With your sailing abilities, I can promise you the position of vice-captain in the future!”
There was an uproar at the scene-this was getting more and more confusing. It was one thing if ao Tianba didn’t try to scam Lin Yi, but why was he trying to get on Lin Yi’s good side now? lowering his status and giving him the high position of vice-captain?
Everyone was just watching the show, but Ren Zhongyuan was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off. He looked at ao Tianba in disbelief, who had a 180-degree change in attitude. What was uncle ao doing?
He didn’t know that ao Tianba was only helping him because of his father, but after last night’s battle, Lin Yi’s value had far exceeded his father ‘s. If he didn’t change his attitude now, he’d be an idiot.
For a person like ao Tianba who sailed on the sea, a talented sailing master was absolutely more important than anything else. A seventh-grade Alchemist was simply incomparable. This was a sailing trump card that could let him rest easy at sea!
Lin Yi couldn’t help but be moved by ao Tianba’s invitation. Vice-captain was basically the same rank as the Vice-Dean of the East Province Academy. This guy was willing to pay a lot of money just to win him over.
But as moved as he was, Lin Yi had never planned to do this, and naturally, he wouldn’t accept this sudden invitation. He shook his head, “I’m sorry, but this is not my goal. Captain, please find someone else. ”
Ao Taba’s expression suddenly froze. Even if the other party was the Fuma of the West Island with a promising future, he was only a master in the middle stage of the nascent soul realm. Offering a high-ranking position like vice-captain was already a sign of sincerity, but he did not expect to be rejected without hesitation. It was indeed not easy to invite a master.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t force you.” Ao Tianba smiled bitterly. He was disappointed, but he knew that he had to try his best to get on Lin Yi’s good side. He might have a chance in the future, or he’d only bring himself an unimaginably strong enemy if he continued to offend him.
With Lin Yi’s shocking performance last night, he couldn’t help but start to suspect Lin Yi’s background. At least one thing was for sure-this guy wasn’t just a simple Fuma of the West Island or a disciple of the North Island. He had an even more powerful background!
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to be so familiar with the Starfall formation. After all, this kind of thing was very difficult to come into contact with, whether it was in the West or the North Island.
However, ao Tianba did not give up so easily. He suggested,””This time, the vitality of this Starship has been greatly damaged. If there is no powerful person to personally control it, there may be even greater chaos on the way. So, I have a presumptuous request, and I hope that you will seriously consider it.”
“Oh? Just say it. ” Lin Yi frowned. His impression of this guy had changed quite a bit-at least he didn’t hate him as much as before. If it wasn’t something too outrageous, he’d agree to it. After all, they were still on this ship, and they’d be in trouble if anything happened.
“I would like to invite young hero Lin to control this ship together. Don’t worry, there won’t be any mistakes like before. All the crew members on this ship will carefully follow young hero Lin’s every order. I wonder if young hero Lin can help?” Ao Tianba paused and then added,””Of course, you need a good reason to do so. An honorary vice-captain position should be just right. Don’t worry, Lin shaoxia. This won’t affect you from doing anything else. You can leave if you want to. There’s no need to get entangled.”
“You want me to control the warship together?” Lin Yi’s eyes lit up. He didn’t care about the vice-captain title, but he was very interested in the opportunity to control an ancient warship of this scale!
Even if he didn’t have the dream of being a sailor, as long as he was a man, he would naturally be interested in these things. Guns, cannons, cars, horses, especially these super battleships that represented the ultimate force-these were things that were destined to happen in his bones, and Lin Yi was no exception.
As an assassin, Lin Yi had piloted planes and cannons in the common world, but he had never piloted a battleship! Especially after personally controlling a super killing formation like the Starfall formation-to be honest, Lin Yi actually had a tendency to love it!
Even if he had only followed the instructions of the ghostly thing to place his pieces, the feeling of fighting a super Overlord of the sea like Sea Dragon through the Starfall formation and even forcing him to flee in a panic was simply too pleasurable and irresistible.
How great it would be if he had such a super warship! That was Lin Yi’s first thought when he walked out of the command room. Of course, it was just wishful thinking, but now that he had the chance to control the ancient warship again, he wouldn’t let it go easily. (To be continued.) ”
