Chapter 7: Stealthy Navigation
Fifteen years old! Hehe! Uncle, you can rest assured and go, I thank you for your guidance, I will definitely take care of her!
With great enthusiasm, Da Fei continued to turn the pages one by one
Selling treasures seems too shortsighted; developing them oneself would be tantamount to directly opposing that Duke Macar. It is said that the next major dungeon in the game will require the combined strength of a large guild. How could an epic quest possibly be completed by an ordinary player alone? Collaborating with others? Damn, I can't trust players just like that Blood Sea Frenzy!
For an individual entrepreneur like Da Fei, the concept of a team is rather illusory, which means that one can only recruit NPC talents. To recruit outstanding NPC talents, or even NPC heroes, a player's reputation becomes essential. No one is willing to follow an unknown nobody
No! None of it! My intuition tells me that this must be the legendary pirate king's ultimate skill, "Phantom Submersion"! They can create illusions using a curtain of water to conceal the ship's body, allowing them to approach their prey unnoticed even in broad daylight! I immediately reported it! But it only drew a round of ridicule from the crew! I began to regret my rashness and my paranoid suspicions!
November 4, 155, clear. The sea is calm and the sky is clear. We have arrived at the edge of the new Caribbean Sea, where pirates are rampant, and I remain vigilant, not daring to let my guard down for a moment. At 12:00 noon, everyone began their lunch, and I suddenly noticed an unnatural disturbance in the waves far off the side of the ship. Was it my eyes playing tricks on me, or was it an illusion? Or perhaps fish? At 12:00 noon, everyone began their lunch, and I suddenly noticed an unnatural disturbance in the waves far off the side of the ship.

Information Collection: When heroes engage in battle with unknown monsters, they can acquire the attributes of the monsters and create information cards. Selling these information cards to scholars or nobles can yield monetary rewards, prestige, and increase the favorability of certain NPCs.
Da Fei hurriedly flipped backward
System Notification: Congratulations, you have reached Level 3! You have gained 1 point in strategic attributes, 1 skill point, your health has increased by 2, and your leadership has increased by 1
At this moment, the sky gradually darkened, and the tide once again receded with a splash, revealing a vast expanse of damp land. ... Having long been prepared and in a state of full readiness, Da Fei leaped into the sea with a splash, swimming towards the distant shimmering pools of red light ...
System prompt: You have studied the insightful works of your predecessors and gained 2000 experience points. You have obtained information related to the skill "Stealth Submersion"
At that moment, a line of text jumped out.
Upon seeing this, Da Fei couldn't help but be taken aback! It is easy to understand the concept of mastering others' extraordinary skills to become a Grandmaster, but what does it mean to "finally step into the divine level realm"? Is it really that simple to transition from Grandmaster to divine level?
So it turns out to be a combination skill! Just as Da Fei turned the page again,
What the heck!
Just now, I reached level 3 and gained a skill point. In any case, whether for long-term goals or current plans, skills must be learned. Da Fei decisively took out the skill book and began to study!
There are many ways to gain reputation, such as through tasks and military achievements. Currently, Da Fei has just one method to acquire reputation, which is the sub-skill of reconnaissance, intelligence gathering
At this moment, Da Fei was yawning repeatedly on the reef while flipping through a book filled with various route maps and the tedious notes of coordinate numbers. He only paused to pay attention to the text in a few places, which merely consisted of various annotations on climate, hydrology, and geography. As for the location of Silver Island, even when looking at it himself, it was still a complete mystery to him.
The subsequent content discusses how Juan occasionally consults with Captain Renoir and the accompanying mage, Macar, regarding the principles of this skill. They collectively analyze and conclude that this elusive submersion is not merely within the realm of navigation techniques; it may also incorporate certain magical elements, specific reconnaissance skills, and possibly even relate to the material composition of the ship itself. Furthermore, this skill does not appear to be something that can be accomplished by an individual alone; it should be a collaborative effort by a team, representing a combination skill.

This means that in order to master this skill, it is essential to assemble a team with many talented individuals. Of course, even if it is not for this skill, talent is still necessary. The reason why the Saint Anthony has been able to turn peril into safety and create miracles multiple times is precisely because the entire crew is composed of talented individuals
The surrounding waters of this deserted island are teeming with unknown marine life, which can be perfectly utilized for intelligence gathering! There are always one or two pieces of information that are extremely valuable, such as this plant-like sea anemone!
At that moment, a golden light enveloped my entire being, and I finally broke through my limits, reaching the master level of reconnaissance skills! I succeeded! Oh God! I praise You! I can finally step into the divine realm!
Speaking of which, mithril should be considered a strategic resource more valuable than gold in the eyes of a mage. How should I handle this image? Offer it as a treasure? Sell it? Develop it myself?
... ...
Da Fei raised his eyebrows, is there content? What is this? Is this a hidden plot? It must be! I am a self-taught expert! St. Paul’s Port, the daughter living in the church, right? Yes, it seems that those sailors in the game who have no relatives send their children to be cared for by the church. In 155, she was 10 years old, so now she is 15 years old
New Player Tip: When players obtain skill information, it triggers the skill development system. Players can develop skills on their own or gather more detailed information from various NPCs, or seek out mentors to learn the skill, among other options.
Skill Information! Da Fei's chin fell to the ground
Indeed, passives are great; my favorite skill is the passive skill.
However, Captain Renoir firmly supported me, and the entire ship immediately changed course, sailing at full speed with the wind at our backs to escape. Just then, an astonishing event occurred: a pitch-black pirate warship suddenly appeared on the open sea! It was indeed the legendary and fearsome pirate king, Redbeard! Upon seeing us begin to flee, he immediately abandoned his disguise and pursued us at full speed!
September 24, 155, sunny. The prolonged autumn gloom finally came to an end, and everyone took their single quilts out of the dormitory to air them. To everyone's delight, they discovered that there were many fleas in the quilts, so each person caught a bottle full of them and mixed them with the treasured butter to spread on dry bread. It was truly a delightful lunch!
On May 12, 155, it was foggy. Today marks the 10th birthday of my dear Serbia, but I am not by her side. I have been away from home for 5 years; I wonder if she has become accustomed to life in the church. I wonder if she still waits for me every morning at the dock in São Paulo. I wonder if she can still recognize her father now. Over these 5 years, we have experienced various extreme survival situations at sea, and we have become unrecognizable; I cannot even recognize myself in the mirror.

May God bless my Serbia and keep her safe.
System prompt: You have spent a skill point to learn the passive skill Information Gathering! The longer you are in contact with the unknown, the more detailed the information you will collect
This stealthy submersion technique is not recorded in the navigation skill books! It must be a unique skill of pirates? A divine skill? In other words, this diary is still an important scientific treasure! It is a key item for me to learn divine skills, and I cannot surrender it yet!
Da Fei reviewed the content in detail once again. The subsequent sections describe how, after more interactions with Ma Kaer, Juan began to notice something unusual about Ma Kaer, and so on. After that, there were no further system prompts.
