Chapter 329: Revisiting the Old Place

If this is really the case, Bernadette's decision to let Cattleya take care of Sharf is a bit inappropriate...

Although Cattleya can ask Mr. Fool for support at any time, and although nothing happened when she was under her care in the original work, in the final analysis, she still underestimated the old methods.

Of course, Abner was not prepared to capture Sharf and imprison him personally... If he wanted to, he would not have let Bernadette take him to the "Future" before...

After all, he also wanted to find out what the "Fallen Mother Goddess" had planned, and what kind of plan Lilith would have.

After thinking for a moment, Abner decided to send a "wisdom eye" to the "Star Pirates", attached to a certain crew member, and observe Sharf and Frank closely.

While thinking in his mind, Abner organized his words on the surface and said to Bernadette:

"I do know something about 'Giuseppe Castilla'...

"But this was not part of our previous deal."

Bernadette's blue eyes swept across Abner's face and asked "calmly": "What do you want?"

Abner smiled and said: "I need you and the 'Element Dawn' industry to fully tilt towards the Beldan territory."

Bernadette was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the other party would make such a "tacky" request. However, she didn't value money very much. She nodded directly and said: "I will ask the person in charge in Backlund to talk to the manager of your company. Negotiate.”

"Then it's settled!" Abner raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then stretched out his palm and made a very gentlemanly "invitation to dance" gesture.

Seeing this, Bernadette roughly guessed what he wanted to do, so she hesitated briefly and put her hand on his.

The next moment, the two figures disappeared from the "Alvin Palace" and appeared in a cave in a hidden valley on Blue Mountain Island.

——That is, the valley where Giuseppe and Lamia once lived in seclusion. Karen's team was once trapped there by Lamia's creation, but was rescued by Abner.

"My understanding of Giuseppe began in this cave..." Abner was walking in the cave that had been cleaned by the "Earth Mother Goddess Church" while introducing him to Bernadette. The three of them explored what they saw here with Karen.

However, Bernadette remained silent... She glanced at the layout of the caves a few times, her eyes flashing slightly as she wondered what she was thinking.

…

Just as Abner was taking Bernadette to "tour" the former residence of Giuseppe and Lamia, an ordinary sailor on the "Future" suddenly woke up from his sleep.

This sailor's name is Tom. He has dark complexion and slightly curly hair. He has a typical appearance of a mixture of natives from the Rhoside Islands and Loen.

He doesn't know who his father is, so he doesn't have a surname. Even the name "Tom" was given by the boatswain after joining the "Star Pirates".

Having just woken up, he glanced at the familiar cabins around him and sighed in disappointment.

After all, he just had a sweet dream, in which he was "lucky" to embark on an extraordinary path, promoted all the way, and finally became a pirate general like the captain. Finally, he led his troops to occupy the Rhoside Islands, and married a noble lady...

"It's a pity that it's just a dream... But why can't I finish this dream? I'm going to hug that lady to bed soon..."

After Tom muttered a few words rather unwillingly, he got up and went to the deck to enjoy the sea breeze to relieve his restless mood.

But at this moment, a "screen" made of "light" appeared in front of his eyes, and there was a line of words he didn't recognize on the screen...

——As a native of the island, Tom naturally has never gone to school and is completely illiterate... and "Star Admiral" will not give "literacy classes" to the crew like "Vice Admiral Iceberg" does.

"What is this? A movie?" Tom looked around cautiously, but did not find the "projector" he had seen in Bayam's "Brain Cinema".

It is worth mentioning that for adventurers and pirates, their favorite movie is "The Sinking of the Laurel" which was released a few months ago. Tom has watched it several times and dreams that one day he can do the same. That's how Abner Brain discovered treasure and lived an enviable life.

Then, his mind wandered a little because of his memories, and he was surprised to find that he actually recognized the words on the "light screen" and read them subconsciously:

"Life Counterattack System..."

Tom was stunned for a while, and then inexplicably felt that the button under the line of text looked full of "temptation", so he pressed it unconsciously.

But as soon as he pressed it, he regretted it.

As a sailor on the "Future", Tom knew a little bit about extraordinary people, and knew that things related to them were often very dangerous, and they would die miserably if they were not careful.

"This... wasn't I tempted by the devil just now?" Tom immediately wanted to report to the captain, but subconsciously he was unwilling to do so, thinking that this might be his own secret. If he reported it, he would definitely be punished. Captain snatched away.

"And if there is really a danger, maybe the captain will deal with me directly..." Thinking of this, Tom couldn't help but shudder, and then comforted himself with a sense of luck, "There has been no problem so far, maybe this The 'life counterattack system' is not a dangerous thing."

As soon as this idea came to his mind, the "light screen" in front of him seemed to have finally "loaded" the information and began to "perform" a "picture".

The "picture" is divided into left and right sides. The left side is his difficult past, and the right side is the wonderful scenes he just dreamed of.

The contrast between the two sides naturally aroused Tom's emotions, making him immersed in those pictures unconsciously, and he was not even aware of the "music" gradually playing in his ears.

About half a minute later, when all the pictures turned dark, lines of text appeared in front of Tom's eyes:

"You are weak, do you want to be powerful?

"You are humble, do you want to occupy a noble position?

"As a poor person, do you want to obtain countless wealth?

"You have nothing, do you want to be favored by a noble lady?

“Everything is in the ‘Life Counterattack System’!

"Excuse me, Mr. Tom.

"Do you want to use this system..."

Looking at these lines of text, Tom, who was emotionally aroused, gasped and clicked on the "Yes" button with almost no hesitation.

Immediately afterwards, those confusing words disappeared and were replaced by a description of the task:

"Welcome to this system, the first step in your counterattack in life is:

"Clean the floor on the bottom floor of the Future and reward you with a fragment of the Sequence 9 potion formula.

"Failure will result in a random loss of memory."
