Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Ghost Lingers (Seeking Follow-up)

In order to perform prophecy on a person, the necessary materials for casting spells are various mediums that can establish occult connections with the target.

Unlike most privateer captains who excel in force, Captain of the Crystal Mirror, West, possesses a unique knowledge of divination.

In addition to a wanted warrant with a portrait, he was given an additional handkerchief that once belonged to Byron.

After all, after the War for the Throne, the Ganquan Palace, where the Lancaster family lived, fell into the hands of the Yorks as a whole.

It's not hard to find some of the personal items that the Lancasters used to use.

Of course, ordinary people can't imagine the protection of their mysterious side by the royal family and the great nobles who have a long heritage.

The personal belongings are better, and it is absolutely impossible to find more directional hair and blood.

The medium most closely related to him is at most a few pieces of underwear that have been washed.

Naturally, the effects of various divination techniques are greatly limited.

It is never easy to catch Byron's tail in the middle of the ocean.

【Magic Mirror】West stared at the silver mirror where the spiritual light flickered more and more frequently, and his mood became more and more excited:

"Even though I'm just a low-order transcendent, the mysterious connection between the medium of the handkerchief and the target is not strong enough.

Only if you are close enough to locate the Son of the Devil.

But now I'm pretty sure he must be nearby.

Even if you enter the port and take a casual turn, you may meet him! ”

"As long as you can take him, in addition to getting the full amount of 5,000 pounds bounty.

There is no need to give 10% of each raid for the next three years to the vampires of the Maritime Court of Hastings.

The privateer license in hand is also not set to a tiresome expiration date.

It's all money, far more tempting than £5,000! ”

Thinking of this, he was so excited that he almost jumped.

However, when his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a dozen pirate flags waving in the wind in the pirate harbor, he suddenly calmed down again.

These flags with gold trim all belonged to the great pirates who sat in the captain's council.

Each of them is a mid-order transcendent of the third order and above!

There is no prohibition of brawls in Iron Anchor Bay, but it is strictly forbidden to kill people openly.

If the law enforcement team was lured by the murder on the street, and there was no [Navigator] to lead the way through the lock, they would not even be able to escape.

"I want the bounty, and I want the exemption from privateer licenses.

Every time I think about the money I lost in vain, it is even more uncomfortable than killing me.

But in order to take care of the face of the pirates, it is necessary to take him down by some extraordinary means.

The reason why the [White Crystal] came to Iron Anchor Bay this time was because it received a warrant from those old men of the Admiralty in Darkens, asking them to assist them in completing a certain mission.

The privateers who came here can't be just us.

The wolf has more meat and less meat, so I have to do it early to eat this big fat meat alone! ”

Thinking of this, West, who was rubbing the silver mirror, seemed to have made a difficult decision, gritted his teeth fiercely, and suddenly called:

"Finger Monkey!"

A short young man beside him, who looked to be only 140 centimeters at most, replied very simply:

"Yes, Captain!"

He had a shiny dagger in his hand all the time, and his face was wrinkled, like that of a dwarf monkey.

【Magic Mirror】West blew the handkerchief that belonged to Byron in his hand.

The latter immediately turned into black powder, and sprinkled it on a small mirror, forming an arrow that twisted like a child's graffiti.

As the mirror turns, the arrows magically keep pointing at the same point.

With a very magical supernatural ability, he triggered the occult connection between Handkerchief and Byron at one time, and locked his position at close range.

But it also means that once you fail, there is no second chance.

He threw the mirror into the hands of the dwarf pirate nicknamed "Finger Monkey", and commanded very solemnly:

"You don't need to kill people in the street now.

But whether you steal, rob, or cheat.

You have to get the hair or blood for this target for me in half an hour, can you do it? ”

The finger monkey stretched out his tongue and licked the blade of the dagger, and said confidently:

"Hey, Captain, don't you know how quickly my dagger becomes after a spiritual awakening?

My [Elbow Swordsmanship] can shave people's heads without him feel anything, and I can cut someone's throat with a single knife and make him feel no pain.

Just wait for my good news. ”

With a knife in his hand, the dagger vanished without a trace, and he turned his head into the flow of people in the harbor.

West's [Magic Mirror Divination] is the same as Byron's interpretation of "Bloody Mary's Gourmet Recipes", and it is also forbidden knowledge outside the sequence.

There are more ways to do it than the Prophet of Towers, which can only follow the rules.

As long as he gets a drop of blood or a hair, he has a way to make the other party die silently without attracting the attention of the law enforcement team.

"Captain, here comes the chair."

Behind him, four exceptionally sturdy pirates stepped off the board with a chair and respectfully invited the captain to sit down.

West sat down in the chair before waving his hand and directing the crew into the harbor together.

This is the price of the forbidden knowledge [Magic Mirror Divination]: the terrifying cleanliness fetish!

It's like a mirror that absolutely does not tolerate any dust.

He couldn't stand the filth, he had to bathe at least three times a day, his body was always spotless, and everywhere on the pirate ship was polished and shiny.

Even the only strange thing that the [White Crystal] spent a lot of money to buy had nothing to do with the battle, but was used to purify the seawater.

Magic Mirror: West doesn't even want the mud in the harbor to get on his shoes.

If he had been allowed to go into the dirty alley and track down Byron, he would have died.

......

Below the sign at the pier.

Byron didn't realize that another team chasing him had been chasing after him like a hoist.

He followed his eight-fingered gaze and saw a series of wanted notices issued by the countries bordering the North Sea.

Among them is itself, and it is quite high.

It depicts a young man who has nothing to do with the worst of evil, but is handsome.

He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slightly immature face, fair skin, broad shoulders, and obviously excellent nutrition and a good birth.

Under the slightly messy black hair, a pair of blue eyes that are standard for Northland Bayerners are as deep as the sea.

Byron had seen this wanted notice on the rear mast of the cruiser Stern before, and it depicted him as he really was.

"[Son of the Devil] Byron, a native of the Black Courts, 17 years old, strength: an unawakened mortal, a second-class wanted criminal, a bounty of 5,000 pounds..."

However, apart from portraits and simple descriptions, there are no origins, no surnames, and no deeds.

However, among all the mortal wanted criminals on the East Coast, the bounty is the first.

Even more than many of the notorious second-order professional-level transcendents.

This strange combination has made many passing pirates talk about it.

"A mere mortal doesn't know what kind of big case he has done to have this kind of treatment?"

"I'm afraid I didn't steal the king's treasure and steal the princess of the kingdom, right?"

"I wonder when my bounty will be 5,000 pounds?"

In the eyes of lawless pirates, the bounty is a proof of their own strength, and it is also the most valuable pirate medal.

After all, the higher the bounty, the more bounty hunters, navies, privateers, and secret societies that are short of money interested in hunting them down.

Being able to get away with it under their encirclement and interception best illustrates the power, danger and cunning of a pirate!

Seeing that under word of mouth, Byron's legend [12] quietly became [13].

In fact, in this world, the [title] itself carries mystery.

A simple [Title] is useless, and a simple [Legendary] is useless.

But when the two are combined, they can bring real power!

As long as the legend degree exceeds [20] and reaches the level of spreading in a region, it can be maintained for a few more years to make it deeply rooted in the hearts of the people to completely solidify the title.

It is enough to make the strength of the low-rank transcendent skyrocket, and it is not a joke to defeat the strong with the weak.

Therefore, no pirate would deliberately hide his clumsy attitude and turn down any opportunity to be in the limelight.

Even many people will deliberately create all kinds of horror legends to make the curve stronger.

This can be seen from these pirates who compete with each other for bounties.

Judging by the extent to which this wanted notice was corroded by salt spray and humidity at sea, it should have taken no more than a day to put it up.

"After the defeat of the military, the scope of the wanted was really expanded."

Byron immediately realized that Iron Anchor Bay might not be as safe as he thought.

At first, it was pursued by the York family and the henchmen's navy, indicating that they also had plans to minimize their influence.

Now that even the pirate harbor has a wanted warrant appears, indicating that York's murderous intent towards him has increased again, and he doesn't mind killing him at all.

Just want him dead!

Before being promoted to [Storm Knight], he will still be locked by Prophecy.

The objects that can be corrected by [Cognitive Correction] are only two-level [Attendant] and [Profession] in the lower sequence, which are not foolproof.

Everyone around you can suddenly become your enemy.

Hold the ceremony, complete the inauguration, and get the protection of the [Storm Ring] is imminent!
