Pirate: Fourth Scourge

Chapter 43: I Seem To Be In Trouble

“Look! It’s there, right?” Lini shouted, pointing to the house in front of her.

Ryan and the others followed her gaze, and saw an inconspicuous sign hung in front of a five or six storey house with the words “House of Everything” written on it.

“It should be here.” Ryan nodded, “Go, go in and have a look first.”

The door is ajar.

Ryan sorted out the ordinary novice costumes, and was about to raise his hand and knock on the door.

However, the next second the door was opened from inside.

A white-haired girl wearing a work uniform skirt and stepping on high heels appeared in front of them.

“Hello, welcome to the House of Everything~” Wase Yuxue bowed slightly to show her welcome. Although her face seemed very warm, it was a bit unnatural.

“Sir in the dark…why do you want me to wear this kind of clothes and high heels…not used to it!” Wase Yuxue said inwardly.

A few minutes ago, Heishi suddenly asked her to put on a work uniform skirt, and said that this is a necessary sense of ritual…

Although Wase Yuxue was a little bit resistant to wearing this kind of slightly mature clothing, she had to do it.

“You… hello.” Ryan’s hand was still frozen in the air at this time, and he was taken aback for a while to react, and quickly responded.

“Hello!” The three of Xi Riyu also bowed quickly in response.

“Come in first.” Wase Yuxue made a sign to invite in, and then led a few people to the living room.

Ryan exchanged glances, and then they all walked into the house.

“There is someone else!” Ryan had just entered the living room when he noticed the man sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.

However, the man seemed to be indifferent to them, and when he saw them entering the door, he only slightly put down the newspaper and glanced at them, and then focused on the newspaper again.

“This newbie costume… still hasn’t changed.” Hei Shi looked at the costumes of several people, and couldn’t help thinking that he was wearing this style of clothing when he entered the game.

“Um… you sit down first, I’ll go wash some fruits.” Wase Yuxue took a few people to the sofa and said afterwards.

“No need…” Xi Riyu and others waved their hands quickly.

However, Wase Yuxue turned directly and walked into the kitchen.

Suddenly, the whole living room was silent.

The only thing left is the noise of flipping the newspaper in the dark.

After a short while, Black Time finally put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at the few people who were stuck in place.

“Why don’t you sit?” Heishi slowly said.

Yuanmeng glanced at Ryan, the other party didn’t seem to want to answer, so he had to sneer and said, “Uh… we just stand still.”

“Sit down, you are guests, don’t be too cautious.” Heishi smiled and said.

Yuanmeng and the others are not fools either. At this time, if they don’t sit down, they won’t give the opposite face anymore, so several people sat on the sofa one by one.

“Do you have any entrustment?” Heishi asked after a few people sat down.

Of course he knew that these people didn’t have any entrustment at all, but if he didn’t ask this question, the next thing would not be easy to unfold.

“This…” The people in Yuanmeng looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this question.

They just came to try their luck to see if they could receive any tasks. How could there be any commissions?

“Is it here to accept the commission?” Hei Shi’s face showed a somewhat surprised expression.

“Can you accept entrustment here?” Ryan and the others looked at each other and saw the joy in each other’s eyes.

Hei Shi nodded: “Yes, don’t you know what the house of everything is for?”

“Sorry, we just came to this island, and it’s not clear yet.” Xi Riyu apologized, “Can this gentleman give a brief introduction?”

“So… Simply put, if you want to achieve something but you can’t do it yourself, you can initiate a commission in our house of all things, then our house of all things will have members or find someone to do it for you, The premise is that you have to pay corresponding rewards. Similarly, you can also accept commissions from others to get a certain reward in our house of everything.” Hei Shi said very slowly, for fear that they did not understand.

“Then… can we accept the commission, too?” Ryan asked.

“Of course, anyone can, but if you accept it, you have to complete it, otherwise… there will be some small punishments. Even if the number of uncompleted times exceeds a certain number, it will be listed in our house of everything. Blacklist. On the contrary, if the number of commissioned completions is sufficient and the performance is excellent, you will have the opportunity to join our house of everything and enjoy extremely high employee benefits.”

“Employee Benefits?”

“Yes, such as a salary of 1 million a month, free reinforcement, etc.” Heishi randomly threw out a few bait.

“It’s great… sir, is there any commission you can accept now?” Yuan Meng said aloud.

“Of course there is.” Heishi stood up, “I’ll go up and get some commissioned scrolls down. You guys wait here.”

“Excuse me.” Several people said in unison.

As the dark hours walked upstairs step by step, the few people in the living room finally breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, they felt as though a mountain had been pressing on their chests just now, and they were so dull and breathless.

“He should be the task NPC of this novice village, right?” Lini whispered.

“It should be, it’s no wonder that I have contacted so many NPCs before and couldn’t receive the tasks. It turns out that the tasks in this place are all issued here, which is completely different from the novice villages in the world on the forum.” Lane said.

Xi Riyu just wanted to answer, but saw the girl who had opened the door for them came out of the kitchen with two plates of fruit.

“Let’s eat some fruit first. These are the specialty of our Huaskra Island.” Wase Yuxue put two plates of fruit on the table in front of the sofa, “I’ll help you pour a glass of water.”

“Okay, thank you.” Xi Riyu and the others nodded and thanked.

“By the way…I don’t know if there is a sense of taste in the game?” Yuanmeng asked.

“Try it and you’ll know.” Lini reached out and took a bite of a tender-looking fruit. “Huh? Some hey! It’s delicious!”

Hearing Linni’s words, the other people’s eyes lit up, and then they each picked up a piece of fruit.

“It’s so sweet!”

“good.”

“vomit….”

When the other two sighed, Ryan almost vomited after taking a bite of the fruit.

“What kind of taste is this… so terrible!” He frowned and glanced at the weird-shaped fruit in his hand. The whole person was not good.

Although he wanted to vomit it out, seeing Wase Yuxue who had approached with a few glasses of water, he still resisted and swallowed the fruit in his mouth.

“Huh…” Ryan looked at the fruit that had only been bitten in his hand, wondering whether to throw it in the trash can.

However… the next moment, he found… a very special prompt appeared in his prompt bar.

[You have eaten “Paramecia·Fluttering Fruit”, gain strength +100, agility +70, spirit +70, and gain the unique Devil Fruit ability]

“?????” Ryan’s eyes widened.

At the same time, the wharf of the port of Huaskra.

Ornn looked at Diamanti’s body and scratched his head.

“I seem to be in trouble? But, this guy is really too weak…”
