According to the Logbook, Byron, the last Lancaster, is [12].

It is equivalent to the level of a famous region.

His name must have been circulated among the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Hattings, especially the sworn enemies of the Yorks.

Even a wanted warrant may have been issued.

But Byron was not at all worried about revealing his identity because of a mere name.

This is because about a thousand years ago, the Church, which was the supreme Church in the Old World, issued a strange fatwa.

All believers can only choose one of the 65 male and 48 female names in the Gospel of Creation as the name of their children.

Even the royal family with a high status has no privileges.

This fatwa lasted until 18 years earlier, in 1453, when it was annulled, but its influence continues to this day.

In many countries throughout the eastern part of the Old World that believe in the Creator, the repetition rate of personal names can only be described as terrifying.

Commoners would be nicknamed "fat", "short", and "crooked", and nobles would be distinguished by fiefs in front of their names.

Even the king's name was repeated in a large area, and he had to add "several generations" to his name.

For example, Byron's uncle, Henry VI, the previous king of Hattings, was the sixth king named Henry in the dynasty.

In the previous king, Byron's grandfather Henry V was the fifth, and his great-grandfather Henry IV was the fourth.

So Byron, who was on the run, only needed to change his surname to a surname.

"Tudor" comes from his mother in this life.

The same goes for the young pirate who was leading him in front.

After consciously talking about it, Byron learns that his name is Hans the Younger, while his father's name is Hans the Elder, and that both father and son are carpenters on pirate ships.

Like himself, he is also the "trophy" that the pirates looted during a certain raid.

It's just that the father and son are much luckier than the crew of the Pelican.

Not only was he not fed to the sharks, but he relied on his exquisite carpentry skills to gain a high status on the pirate ship.

'Not a low status? Still young? ’

Byron immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to get information, and deliberately slowed down.

The two of them followed the pirate ship's wooden staircase, from the lower deck, which was adjacent to the bilge, to the through gun deck, and then to the staircase to the open deck.

Little Hans, who was in charge of leading the way, didn't know.

Just by walking this way, the logbook relied on the [Echoes of History] to spy on the history of this pirate ship.

Dark blue ink sped on the page:

"Pirate Ship [Maneater]: A small Galen modified from a Clarke-type sailing ship.

It is 22 meters long, 6 meters wide, has a draft of 2.75 meters, has a displacement of 200 tons, and is equipped with 7 6-pounder guns on each side of the open-deck deck, and 2 2-pounder guns on each of the bow and stern gun emplacements.

The hull and deck are made of white oak, a specialty of the Heights Strait Islands, and the mast is cedar wood grown on the Eternal Night Peninsula.

The initial form was an armed merchant ship of the Bantaan Ocean Trading Company of the Kingdom of Hattings.

Later, it was carefully modified by a shipwright, Hans the Elder.

The bow and stern lifts were reduced in speed and maneuverability, the artillery deck was remodeled to house for sailors, and armament was replaced with a six-pounder gun instead of a 4-pounder gun.

Whether it is speed, firepower or personnel, it is more than enough to suppress other merchant ships of the same type.

The valuation is about 10,350 pounds, which is slightly more expensive than the sixth-level cruiser built by the Admiralty, but it is far less than the fifth-class ship, and the difference in combat effectiveness is even greater.

But if it's a novice captain's car, it's the perfect fit. ”

Within three meters of the body, every thing that Byron pays attention to will generate a detailed "material" record on the log.

It's the equivalent of carrying an experienced appraiser with you.

As long as there are no mortal things involving supernatural powers, Byron can peek into most secrets with a mere glance.

But if you want to explore the secrets of supernatural things or events, you must consume your own [spirituality] to get some hints of different shades.

Then, like a detective, in a conventional way, little by little, can the final secret be revealed.

Byron, who saw the prompt of the [Logbook], was sure in his heart, patted the handrail of the polished wooden ladder beside him, and casually praised it seemingly unintentionally:

"The Clark merchant ships of the Bantaan Ocean Trading Company are very mediocre in their own right.

However, the profound skills of the shipwright gave the ship a new life in the later transformation.

I had previously served the Honourable Lord Crawford as a noble deacon, and had the privilege of following him for a time in the Channel Fleet.

Meet many shipwrights who were famous in the Heights and even in the Old World.

In my opinion, only the naval engineers of the Royal Dockyard who have the profession of Tower Sequence [Craftsman] can have such exquisite skills. ”

The corner of his eyes saw the irrepressible smile on little Hans's face without surprise, and even the acne marks on the tip of his nose were slightly red from excitement.

Without the implicit Oriental in Byron's memory, he took his hand very happily and said excitedly:

"Byron... Sir, I didn't expect you to have such a good eye and also have research on shipbuilding technology!

To tell you the truth, the shipwright who built this ship was my father.

He has always been my idol and role model.

Although his father has never been able to achieve the sublimation of [spirituality] and become a [craftsman] of the tower sequence.

But if you only talk about the experience and skill of shipbuilding, you will never lose to those famous big names.

My father would have been glad to know that someone admired his work so much.

When we get back from the captain, we'll have a drink. ”

Byron pretended not to know at all, and pretended to be surprised:

"A master shipbuilder is right next to me?"

Then he waved his hand again and again:

"Actually, I'm just telling the truth, anyone who has studied sailing ships can see at a glance how good this pirate ship is.

However, it would be a pleasure for me to meet a master! ”

Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear!

A craftsman is most proud of his own eating skills, praising his skills just scratching the itch.

Every qualified father is an idol in the eyes of his son, and he is happier to recognize his father's abilities than to recognize him personally.

It would be even better if a father praised his son in front of him.

And what praised them was a noble deacon who had always served the upper echelons of the kingdom and had seen many great worlds.

It's completely different from those vulgar laymen who don't understand anything.

Byron just gave him a simple compliment, and then stacked the triple buff.

Little Hans, who didn't have much scheming, instantly had a good impression of him, and subconsciously slowed down with Byron and opened his chatterbox.

He not only enthusiastically explained the facilities on board along the way, but also introduced the precautions on board for the "newcomers" one by one.

From time to time, Byron chimed in and inserted two sentences, silently solidifying his own personality.

A noble deacon in the service of Lord Crawford, not only proficient in cooking, but also knowledgeable and eloquent.

Even from time to time, he even told a few interesting stories related to the lord and the upper nobles of the kingdom, so that little Hans could not hear a flaw.

Little did the young man know that the original chef was actually a boastful impostor.

And Byron, the "impostor", is not only a descendant of the great nobles, but even Lord Crawford is a close retainer of Lancaster.

The new identity doesn't have to be played at all.

However, no matter how long the road is, there will be a time when it will be finished.

Little Hans, who felt that he was very speculative with Byron, gradually became a little complicated in his eyes, and he wanted to speak several times.

It wasn't until he was about to step onto the open deck that he mustered up his courage and whispered:

"Mr. Byron, the captain's appearance is somewhat... Uh, special.

Don't lose your temper when you see the captain later, the captain hates the strange way people look at him.

And..."

A trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his voice a few points:

"Do you know why there is no shortage of other jobs on the ship, but there is a shortage of chefs?

On this ship, although other posts are also life-threatening from time to time, the cook is undoubtedly the most dangerous one, not one!

Since I got on board, I haven't seen any cook survive for a month in the hands of a captain.

Most of them evaporate in just a few days and never reappear.

If you don't have full confidence in your cooking, you can keep bringing something new to the captain.

It's best to find a way to get yourself a substitute for the dead as soon as possible and take off this chef's hat. ”

"Dangerous?"

Hearing this, Byron couldn't help but pause.

I didn't expect that there would be such a weirdness behind the "entry" interview that should have been very easy for him.

What was even more surprising was that the logbook hidden in his right eye was suddenly written automatically again.

At the end of the page, the only blood-red transcendent record, the shadows of the Battle of the Red and White Roses (31% historical influence, 11% resolution), is followed by a new record.

You've discovered a new secret:

Captain [Bloody Eye] Salman's unspeakable hidden (maybe it will change the fate of a hundred people on a boat, with a historical influence of 4% and a solution density of 8%)!
