340 Chapter 340: I Only Want a grandmaster
Just as Meng Jingtian was walking towards the tavern, there was a player in the Ying Sea Tavern who was running around busily accepting quests and completing them. Not long after.., he had an extra set of “Professional”sailor equipment on him, just like those NPC sailors.
Under the escort of many players, Meng Jingtian and his party finally arrived at the tavern.
The tavern in the China region was more like a tavern. Unlike the Flying Dragon Tavern that Meng Jingtian had visited in the European server, there were no sturdy “Warriors”dressed in rough leather armor. There were.., only chinese-style men dressed in coarse cloth and short brown clothes.
Some of these men were tall and thin, some were short and fat, and they came in all shapes and sizes. However, all of them looked very capable.
The liquor sold in the tavern was not yellowish-brown beer. Instead, it was clear and sweet mixed grain liquor.
As soon as they walked into the tavern, they saw a lively scene. Many other players hired NPC captains and sailors here in order to go out to sea.
“Two days. I’ll really be back in two days. Let’s say I’m a little cheaper. How about 5,000 gold coins?”
“10,000! Don’t even think about it. Get Out of my way. Don’t stop me from drinking.”
In the noisy environment, a player was pleading to an NPC who was in his forties or fifties. His skin was a shiny wheat color, and his muscles were well-proportioned. He looked at the NPC with a fiery personality.
Meng Jingtian could not help but look over. He cast divine examination on the NPC.

Senior captain? Meng Jingtian shook his head in disappointment. With such a bad temper, he thought that Wang Quan Hai was some powerful character!
In reality, Wang Quan Hai was indeed one of the most powerful captains in the Ying Sea Tavern. However, Meng Jingtian had built a city before, and most of the residents were at the grandmaster level, this probably caused him to misunderstand the job level.
Grandmasters were not so easy to meet.
“Is there any captain above the grandmaster level who can go out to the open sea for a tour? The journey is expected to take a month. The price is negotiable!”Wang Quanhai was only a high-level captain. Meng Jingtian was a little disappointed, so he did not look for him directly, instead, he shouted in the tavern.
As soon as he said this, the players and npcs in the tavern all looked at him with strange expressions.
Where did this “Wisdom”come from? How could a grandmaster come to the tavern to drink and look for business? They were all sitting at home, so people would come to them to beg them. They would have to see if the grandmaster was interested. If he wasn’t interested, there was a high chance that he would refuse!
It could be said that inviting a grandmaster was no longer a matter of money.
However, when they saw Meng Jingtian, their expressions changed.
“God Meng, there are no grandmasters here. You should go to the Wild Goose Street in the city and look for them!”A player kindly reminded him.
The npcs who noticed Meng jingtian also bowed respectfully, “Greetings, Lord God. Lord God wants to go out to sea? I am willing to board the ship and help!”
“I am also willing!”
“I, Lord God, although I am not a grandmaster, I am only one step away from becoming a Grandmaster!”Wang Quanhai, who had just pleaded with him, also shouted and looked at Meng Jingtian hopefully.
“If that’s the case, then let’s find a few sailors first!”Meng Jingtian smiled when he heard this.
Since they were already here and the captain was not found, they should find all the sailors first.
“Wait! Who said there are no grandmasters here? Lord God, I am a grandmaster captain. If you need me, I will not hesitate!”At this moment, an old but high-pitched voice sounded.
In a corner of the tavern, a lame old man walked out with a cane.
The moment he walked out, the tavern immediately became noisy and filled with boos.
“F * ck! Is this for real? I knew this old man wasn’t ordinary. He’s actually a grandmaster Captain!”
“F * ck, he knocked on my ten jugs of wine and didn’t give me anything. I was so angry that I beat him up. Not only did his friendliness disappear, he was even locked up for 72 hours!”
“I didn’t expect him to be a grandmaster. Could there really be a hidden quest? If he’s a grandmaster, ten jugs of wine might not be enough to trigger the quest.”
The players discussed animatedly and were filled with regret.
This old man had been hanging around the tavern all this time. He was always drunk and looked sloppy. The players who frequented the tavern had some understanding of him. However, no one knew that he was a grandmaster.
Normal detection skills would not be able to find information about his job level, especially when the other party’s job level was very high and he was intentionally hiding it.
As for the npcs, they knew more about this old man. After all, they were all from the same city. Those who were able to reach the grandmaster level would have a great reputation in the city they were in.
However, at this moment, many npcs did not have much respect for this old man.
Especially Wang Quanhai. When he saw the old man walk out, he said unhappily, “Old Man Yang, you are no longer a grandmaster. Your legs are already crippled. Can you still sail?”
“That’s right. You are so old. Don’t drag the Lord God Down. Uncle Wang can sail more steadily than you.”Beside him, there were also captains and sailors from Wang Quanhai’s faction.
“You juniors, even if I, Yang Wuchang, am crippled or old, I’m still better than a senior captain like you!”Yang Wuchang stomped his crutches, his face red with anger.
“But you’ve already fallen from the grandmaster level! This is the truth, just accept it!”Wang Quanhai curled his lips and said.
Meng Jingtian Sized Up Wang Quanhai and the others, as well as the old man. He stepped forward to support the old man, he smiled and said, “Since the old man was once a grandmaster, I believe he must have a lot of experience. We are going to the distant sea. The old man is so old...”
“Lord God, don’t worry! Even if you give me a small broken boat, I dare to go to the distant sea. Although I am old, I still have the ability to feed my subordinates!”When Yang Wuchang heard this, he grabbed Meng Jingtian’s hand and said excitedly.
Meng Jingtian threw a divine examination technique to the old man and checked his information.
The old man had indeed fallen to the grandmaster level. It seemed that it was because of his crippled leg that he was now a high-level captain like Wang Quanhai.
...
However, his skill level was much higher than Wang Quanhai’s. Among them, his navigation technique had reached level 14!
Meng Jingtian remembered that in his autumn water city, the highest skill level of a god-tier alchemist was only level 15.
In other words, if the old man wasn’t crippled, he might have the strength to break through to the god rank!
His ship wasn’t a small broken ship, but a numinous treasure rank eight treasure ship. It didn’t require the captain to operate it with more physical strength. On the contrary, experience was more important. This old man was indeed a better choice than Wang Quanhai.
