Chapter Thirty-Six: Captain Byron! (Ask for follow-up)
"Ahhhh
Byron, who was quietly ambushed under the window and rushed into the second floor with an arrow step of [Rock Sheep Footsteps], couldn't help but pluck his ears with his little finger.
"It's noisy."
The screams of West's squealing as he entered the cow dung were even worse than when he was stabbed through the thigh.
For this extreme cleanliness addict, I am afraid that cow dung is already equivalent to an extremely high-level spiritual attack.
The next work, the next one!
Without waiting to lie on the ground, he had to vomit out of the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and gallbladder to recover.
Eight Fingers, who volunteered to launch a cow dung attack, was already armed with a boarding axe, and rushed forward with two sailors to chop him up alive.
Chopping and scolding: "Bastard, you still want to bully us honest people!" ”
The record of privateer captain [Magic Mirror] West in the [Logbook] gradually faded.
On behalf of his history is over!
Byron didn't even get a chance to make a move from beginning to end.
It is clear that he is not alone in launching a counteroffensive against West.
Instead, he gathered the small group next door that was already extremely convinced of him, and brought all the equipment to act together.
As Byron completed his promotion, the ability of [Echoes of History] to spy also increased with him.
It turned out that he could only easily see through mortal things, but now he can see through transcendents of the same level.
[Magic Mirror] West and [Bloody Eye] Salman were both defeated, and their spirituality declined significantly, and they had already fallen from the second-order professional level.
Naturally, Byron saw it clearly.
Immediately formulated a tactic, and after personally taking down the finger monkey and others on the perimeter guard, he successfully killed this transcendent without much effort.
"Collect the loot, wash the floor, and we will retreat!"
Byron stepped forward and stripped all the things on West's transcendent body, including his valuable head.
Behind him, a couple of young pirates complained that Eight Fingers had chopped people up too much, and used a mill dustpan to sweep the corpse into a waterproof cowhide bag.
In the end, the entire mill was swept away, leaving not a single footprint of them.
Both sides of the battle are outsiders.
The owner of the mill had no property damage, no casualties, no homicide scenes, was it just because the mill was too clean to report to the law enforcement team?
It's ridiculous.
Throw all the corpses of the crew of the [White Crystal] into the sea in one piece.
The man-eating sharks in the sea that were received by Byron in their entirety helped them destroy their corpses.
According to [Magic Mirror] West, all the people who knew Byron's whereabouts have already died here, and there is no need to worry that the rest of the crew of the White Crystal will come to the door again.
It also saves Byron from coming to the door to continue to "tidy up".
After returning to the remote courtyard of the Rosemary Hotel, the group worked until the early hours of the morning to dispose of the bodies of Salman and the Marines.
As expected, [Cognitive Correction] has already left a mental steel seal in the brains of the small group.
No one cared why Salman had sword wounds or bullet marks.
While the others were working, Byron had already sorted out the loot he had scavenged from [Magic Mirror] West.
It's a pity that the forbidden knowledge of being able to kill people through the mirror [Magic Mirror Divination] was not brought with him by him.
Of course, even if there were, Byron did not dare to learn this... The ability to be easily defeated by cow dung.
The seemingly inconspicuous horn wine glass gave him a big surprise.
It turned out to be a strange thing with a magical effect!
Immediately consume the spirit and complete the interpretation of it with the [Echoes of History].
[Strange Object: Warrior's Cup.]
An ancient craftsman made a Wanmin-style wine cup from yak horns.
Effect: First, the volume is much larger than the appearance, and it can be classified into categories to contain a large amount of liquid, but it is also limited to liquid.
2. It can separate or polymerize various components in the liquid.
Cutting inscription: Clear spring as note]
In the hands of the ancient Bay Folk pirates, the Warrior's Cup can be used instead of a still, concentrating ordinary quality ale into a highly refined spirit.
In the hands of the [Magic Mirror] West, it has become a tool for purifying the water source, which can purify the seawater contained in it into fresh water.
In the eyes of right-thinking navigators, the function of purifying water is indeed much more important than concentrating fine wine.
"This [Warrior's Cup] is not a combat artifact though.
However, it is of strategic importance to a ship and can greatly extend the range of the ocean.
There is no food to catch fish or kelp, and if there is no fresh water, everything will be destroyed.
And then I'm going to hold a ceremony to prepare all kinds of [blood brew], but I don't have to carry a lot of bottles and cans with me. ”
In addition to this surprise, Byron flipped through to the end and failed to find anything of value.
Only a piece of letter paper in his torn pocket, which had been cut in half and soaked in blood, caught his attention.
A very short sentence was written on it in black ink:
"Before the end of October, enter Iron Anchor Bay as a pirate and wait for the next order."
Although this is not stamped with any identification of the party who issued the order.
Byron didn't activate the [Echoes of History], but he recognized it at a glance, this letter came from the Admiralty of the Kingdom of Hattings!
Paper is a big deal, but the raw material used to make this ink, carbon black, is made from broken leather and sled dogs... Dog feces are burned.
There is a unique taste that is not easily noticed by ordinary people.
The reason why Byron is so clear.
Without him, the reason why this batch of ink could enter the Admiralty in the first place was because his father, Prince Sorenburg, personally ordered the purchase.
Uh, well, that inkshop is actually their family's business.
Half a month has passed since the change of dynasty, and the previous inventory will not be used up at all.
Sure enough, the next moment, a new prompt appeared on the [Logbook]:
You've discovered a new secret: the conspiracy of the Admiralty (House of York), Historical Influence 20, Solution Density 5%!
Influence (10-20) represents covering a city, a place or an entire region.
Put it here is the situation in the whole Iron Anchor Bay, or even the entire North Sea region.
And this secret does not occupy a separate line, but appears behind [Secret: The Shadow of the Red and White Rose War].
has become a part of the former, and the secondary secrecy shows that there is a great correlation between them, even inheritance!
This also means that as long as Byron can unravel this secondary secret, he can not only greatly increase the density of the former's solution, but also immediately receive [Spiritual] gifts and new [entries].
"The rain is coming!
As we all know, pirates are not only private armed forces that roam the world, burn and loot, but also pawns in the game and confrontation between major maritime powers.
Behind the rise and fall of pirates, there must be a huge shadow of regional geopolitics!
The changes in the Red and White Rose War and the survival of pirates in Iron Anchor Bay and even in the North Sea region are obviously intrinsically related to something I don't know.
I thought I could rely on Iron Anchor Bay to develop with peace of mind for a while.
Now it seems that I must build my own armed forces as soon as possible, depending on whether the situation is advancing or retreating. ”
In fact, for a moment, Byron didn't think about using [Cognitive Correction] to receive West's ready-made [White Crystal].
But not only did he not have West's sorcery, but he also had no memories of him, and daring to sneak into the ranks of privateers would reveal his stuff in a matter of minutes.
He doesn't mind joining the York Party and doing another backstab, but he must be careful about his identity.
Suppressing the surging thoughts, he raised his head again, and unexpectedly found that the dozen or so crew members who had finished their work had all come to him.
At the front are the carpenter Hans and his son, and the bloodied [Eight Fingers], the trainee navigators Thomas and Parry, who stabbed through the [Magic Mirror] West's key point with a spear.
Everyone in the back can be called by Byron's name.
They didn't drink the [blood of transmutation] that Salman had concocted, like the Marines who were frantically seeking supernatural strength.
He was also lucky enough to escape the slaughter of the demon spirit in the mirror.
And Byron, as the acting navigator, naturally became the highest-ranking pirate officer on the [Maneater].
At this time, more than a dozen pairs of ardent eyes looked at strength, knowledge, prestige, character... All indisputable Byron.
After the assassination of Captain Salman, they urgently need to deal with one of the most pressing issues...
"Captain! Byron! ”
The fanatical [Eight Fingers] suddenly raised his hand and shouted.
Immediately, there was no suspense, and there was no nostalgia for Salman, and everyone was chanting in unison:
"Captain! Byron! ”
"Byron! Byron! ...”
Starting with the number one dogleg, little Hans echoed, and the rest of the people all elected Byron as the new captain of the [Maneater]!
Old Hans also solemnly held the [Ten Commandments of Pirates] from Salman's bedroom into his hand.
Symbolizing the complete transfer of supreme power from the pirate ship.
As a result, Byron finally received a new title in addition to "The Fugitive" and "The Last Lancaster" - Pirate Captain!
