His Majesty was indeed very pleased with the return of the fortune-seeking fleet, and this joy was from the heart, without a trace of other emotions.

"I see all of your contributions to the royal family, your loyalty is enough to move anyone who meets you, come, let us celebrate this group of heroes!"

Edward was dressed in a proud gown today, with less gold ornaments, and looked a little plain, as if he were a poor nobleman from the countryside compared to the nobles who were showy and hung with colorful feathers and silks.

But no one dares to ignore the majesty of His Majesty, who is the ruler of the entire United Kingdom, an absolute monarch of seven million people, whose words and deeds affect the lives and future of millions of people.

Including the single nobles and noblewomen with strong smiles on their faces below, the strong love on their faces immediately converged at the moment His Majesty the King spoke.

Bending down slightly, pricking up their ears to listen, with a solemn appearance, as if the Mandarin words in front of them were from God's teaching, they all maintained a humble posture.

After glancing at everyone who was drinking and chatting quietly, Edward glanced at the Elvis knight who led the entire fleet to attack the Songhai Empire, and said with a sigh on his face:

"And you, Knight Elvis, you are worthy of my lord's oath, loyal and dedicated to your lord, meticulous in your responsibilities, you are a true knight!"

With the praise of His Majesty the King, the Elvis knight who bowed his head in the audience, his face was red, he was in his thirties, but at this time he seemed to be drunk, his head was lowered, and the corners of his mouth were grinning.

The male aristocrats, on the other hand, looked at him with jealous eyes, biting their lips and looking as if they could kill.

The noblewomen, on the other hand, hid their smiles and secretly looked at the knights in pride, envy and admiration, and longing, could not tell the difference.

Everyone in the audience knew that His Majesty would not praise people easily, and if he appeared, the person who was praised would receive a great reward.

Sure enough, His Majesty's blue eyes looked at the joyful Knight Elvis, and he was ready to add fuel to the fiery atmosphere at this celebration banquet.

"Elvis Knight—" A loud voice rang out.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Elvis hurriedly took a step forward, bending even lower.

"In recognition of your outstanding contribution to the Kingdom and the Crown, I confer upon you, in my capacity as King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain, the Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the United Kingdom!"

"And for the reward for your hard work, in Ireland there is a great pasture of thousands of acres, which awaits you!"

After saying these words with a smile, Edward did not look at the nobles who frequently sighed and were surprised, nor did he pay attention to the noblewomen whose eyes were discharged, and resolutely left.

The Grand Cross of the Order of the Order of Merit is the highest title that a soldier can obtain, and in the entire United Kingdom, there are only a handful of people who have obtained it, and it is a great honor for a soldier, enough to make people proud for a lifetime.

Especially for the nobles who regard their reputation as their life, this is more precious than the hereditary title.

Therefore, after this celebration banquet, the knight of Elvis was surrounded by a group of noble ladies who wore perfume, and the deep ravines tempted his eyes and shook his heart.

This happy annoyance overwhelmed him.

At this moment, three ships full of people and goods are facing the wind and rain, heading to the unknown sea.

Fortunately, although there were no charts, the sailors were experienced, and after nearly a month of wandering, three ships, one hundred and seventy men, came to a harbor without danger, a harbor that they had never seen before.

Tall and dense trees, scrambling to grab the sun, countless branches and leaves densely piled through, blocking the sunlight and the blue sky.

The sea has a slight salty smell, blowing the white and jade sand, so that the fruitful coconut trees can't help but shake slightly, as if they are praising and sighing for this beauty.

At this moment, suddenly a pale green figure was slowly moving, entering the sea, seemingly indifferent to this beautiful scenery, never turning his head to look.

From time to time, the seabirds land on the beach, like lightning, grabbing the striking green of the beach, and then fly high into the air, shouting a few times to show their excitement, and then disappear without a trace.

On the beach, the group of green moving objects that are destroying one by one are still moving, persistently carrying out the tradition of thousands of years, and in the face of the difficulties that are close at hand, they do not flinch, and continue to crawl slowly and boldly.

Of course, the gradual disappearance of their companions also made them a little uneasy, and many of them wandered in the caves, as if waiting for the hateful predators to disperse.

As time passed, it seemed that the flying predator still had amazing patience, constantly wandering in the sky.

And then, suddenly, a thunderous sound sounded in the sky, and then a bird fell from the sky with bloodstains, followed by hearty laughter.

"Hahaha, Gilbert, you see how lucky I am, a pound, don't go back!"

Three armed merchant ships slowly docked in this harbor, and the crews on board also waded into the water one by one and came to the shore one after another.

And as the captain of the ship Humphrey. Gilbert, on the other hand, stared ahead with a look of chagrin and his mouth wide open, as if he could not believe the result.

And the big man next to him with stubble and wrinkles, with a chrysanthemum smile on his face, holding an arquebus in his hand, said in surprise.

"I have to say, John. Mr. Smith, you're so lucky, it's not you who I'm losing this time, and God! ”

In desperation, Gilbert reluctantly stuffed a golden pound into the big man's hand, and his tone was very unconvinced.

"Who would have thought that the arquebus could really hit the bird, which proves that God is still on my side, please don't complain!"

Big Han John. Smith raised an eyebrow and said arrogantly.

"Well, John, if it weren't for the good mood of the captain, you would have been beaten to the point that you wouldn't have gotten out of bed!"

On the side, a middle-aged man with glasses and a clean face walked over and said softly.

"But, dear captain, as far as I can see, this is an unexplored harbor, and it is impossible for the Spaniards to establish a settlement here, so we are the first to enter here, so please name this harbor!"

Ignoring the old sailor's angry eyes, the man with glasses looked at the unwilling captain and said meticulously.

"What you said also makes sense, then, in order to thank His Majesty Edward for his support, as the first stop, this place will be called Edward Bay!"
