I Have a Sailing Game

Chapter 628: Chapter 354: Monument of the Rambler (2-in-1)

Just before Rogel’s retrospective, he had already received numerous requests for audience from Sharo.

If not for the ability to retrospect, he might have missed many important events due to the deep sleep this time.

Quickly, he stood up and set off again.

He needed to resolve the matters at hand and then find a stable period before sinking into sleep again.

...

"Hoo..."

After his body’s abnormal state finally calmed down, Vic let out a long breath.

He put down the Magic Potion Bottle, feeling the wondrous power inside his body.

After acquiring the Magic Potion Recipe from the black cat, Vic naturally began to hunt for Magic Potion Materials tirelessly, then proceeded with potion creation.

To achieve this, he almost emptied his fortune to gather the Magic Potion Materials in the black market and luckily managed to brew them.

Now, having successfully consumed the potion, he had as he wished become one of the Extraordinary, possessing some self-protection abilities.

Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and closed his eyes, feeling those inexplicable memory fragments.

It was a long time before he opened his eyes again, looking at the quietly lying black cat ahead.

"Xiaohai, I’ve received more memories related to Varesa..."

Vic said with a furrowed brow.

His memories seemed to gradually emerge as his Tier improved.

The memories appearing this time were from childhood play, where he saw many magical artifacts, yet still nothing particularly important.

To his reaction, the black cat didn’t seem surprised, merely replied with a "Hmm."

It then looked at him with displeasure: "I told you, don’t use that stupid name for me."

Xiaohai, naturally was Vic’s name for the black cat.

After all, a person and a cat being forced to live under the same roof, Vic has inevitably grown familiar with it.

Once familiar, Vic naturally thought of giving the black cat a name, but was strongly opposed by the latter.

In the black cat’s view, Vic was not qualified to name it.

"What should I call you then?" Vic asked somewhat helplessly, this black cat’s nature was truly hard to please.

"You can use ’you’ or ’hey’ as alternatives...just don’t give me stupid names."

The black cat didn’t even glance at him.

Its words rendered Vic slightly stunned and wordless.

He could never have imagined that there existed someone in this world demanding others use ’you’ or ’hey’, terms sounding impolite, to address them...

Oh wait, it’s a cat, and a peculiar cat at that, never mind.

"Alright, alright...I got it."

Vic shrugged helplessly.

As the person and the cat were conversing.

The black cat, originally lying on the table, suddenly squinted its eyes and stood up.

"Don’t know whether to say you’re unlucky or fortunate."

"Your ’guest’ has arrived..."

The black cat looked at Vic and said eerily.

"Guest?" Hearing this, Vic instinctively furrowed his brow in confusion, but quickly realized, startled to the point where his heartbeat paused briefly.

It was the person who tried to slit his throat before!

Vic’s heart began pounding feverishly.

The good news was; he had now become one of the Extraordinary—not just a student incapable of self-defense.

The bad news was; he had just finished drinking the potion, the strange taste still lingering in his mouth.

Run!

Despite his tense state of mind, Vic swiftly made the most correct decision.

The black cat had sensed the enemy’s arrival but didn’t inform Vic of the number.

Simultaneously, Vic didn’t believe his newly acquired Extraordinary Ability could contend with the enemy and confidently defeat them.

Anyone sensible knew that fleeing was the wisest move!

He reached the balcony, inspected the situation below, and opened the window beside him, took a deep breath and leapt downward.

Cre-eak...

Almost simultaneously, the locked room door by Vic weirdly opened with a triangular sharp snake head sticking to the corner, staring coldly into the room.

"Snake? How hideous..."

The black cat on the table gently shook its head, then transformed into a black mist and vanished.

As if hearing Vic’s departure from the balcony, the snake head quickly withdrew, followed by a masked man with long hair rushing rapidly toward the balcony.

At this point, it was already late at night.

Despite Vic residing within the city, he still didn’t encounter anyone, the streets lay immersed in darkness.

"He’s catching up."

Vic fled desperately, yet no matter how fast he ran, the black cat could elegantly remain within Vic’s vicinity, providing reminders.

"Turn, he’s activating a power."

The black cat at the corner calmly said.

Upon hearing it, Vic unhesitatingly turned.

As he turned around.

An unknown power rushed toward where he just stood.

Crack.

Though that power had missed Vic, its remnant force hit a fat spider amidst spider webs, turning its body instantly to gray stone, losing support and shattering upon impact with the ground.

"Hmm, Petrifying Shock possessing the power to petrify life..."

Vic was still frantically fleeing while the black cat scratched its chin humanely, seeming to muse yet subtly reminding Vic.

"Hey! Don’t just stand there... Any way uh... give me a hand!"

Seeing the black cat’s calm demeanor, Vic felt a shiver down his spine.

"You think I’m here chatting idly with you, saying this much nonsense for nothing?"

The black cat glanced at him, its form dissolving into a mist anew, reassembling ahead of Vic once more.

It truly didn’t care for being called "hey"; unpleasant though, it was indeed better sounding than Xiaohai.

"Damn it!"

Vic swore under his breath upon hearing, naturally wasn’t cursing the black cat, but rather his ill-fated luck.

"Stop!"

A chilling, low voice came from behind Vic, uttered by the long-haired man.

Stop? Do you think I’m stupid or what?

Vic’s mind instinctively conjured this thought.

Yet in the very next moment, his mind went blank.

His legs suddenly stiffened.

This unexpected turn caused him to topple forward uncontrollably.

With a loud thud, Vic’s body fell helplessly onto the ground.

"What a compliant child..." The black cat sighed.

Of course, the reason Vic fell wasn’t due to erratic thoughts.

Undoubtedly, it was caused by the Extraordinary Ability of the long-haired man behind him.

"Humph."

The long-haired man halted his sprint, breathing somewhat heavily, coldly snorting.

Then he advanced calmly, his fingers starting to move eerily, preparing to unleash the Petrifying Shock again.

Vic naturally didn’t forsake resistance.

Though fallen, he couldn’t keep running further, only could utilize newly acquired Extraordinary Power for a desperate fight.

"Over there."

The black cat approached his face, looking toward a direction.

Having no doubts, Vic directly extended his hand, forefinger tugging toward where the black cat pointed.

With a loud bang, a wooden barrel dropped right behind Vic.

Simultaneously, the Petrifying Shock from the long-haired man crashed onto the barrel.

And...nothing rendered of it.

The long-haired man appeared momentarily stunned.

Seizing the moment, Vic quickly got up and ran again.

Seeing this, the long-haired man fumed in rage.

This kid ran again!

While intending to chase once more, suddenly a voice arose from behind him.

"Lady, this is not the place for soliciting."

Accompanying the words, came the sound of a blade unsheathing.

The next second, silver-white blade light flashed by.

Swish-swish.

Instantly, the long-haired man’s mane severed, transforming mid-air into slithering snake heads, along with blood falling to the ground.

The long-haired man instinctively covered his hair, letting out a painful shriek.

Yet soon, silence fell upon his screams.

"Hoo..."

The man with the knife efficiently knocked him out, then exhaled thick secondhand smoke, looking at the front confidently.

"Hey, you kid ahead, stop running."

However, the awkwardness was, met with complete silence.

Upon hearing his voice, the kid accelerated away even faster.

"Damn it..."

His mouth twitched in irritation.
