Chapter 56: Hunting, Counter-Hunting

Under the same night sky.

Byron, who didn't know that he was already seen by Redbeard as a gangster with the gunpowder artist, came to Wandering Oriole Street again and began to choose a suitable replacement target.

Activate [Cognitive Modifier] to turn yourself into a street tree.

As Bruch fully recovered, the [anchor] representing human relationships in his body gradually stabilized, and the texture of the spiritual glow became thicker and thicker.

During the day, in addition to the massacre order, Byron also learned from Bruch's mouth.

After the war, all the daughters of the Lancastrian family, including their aunt Queen Margaret, were handed over to the Church and imprisoned in a convent on an isolated island.

Most of them are foreign nobles who married into Lancaster, and they are not recognized by the [Iron Law of Monarchy: Magna Carta], and their lives are guaranteed.

If nothing else, there is a high probability that he will die alone in the monastery.

As for the surviving female dependents of the core vassals of the Lancastrian Party, Bruch is not clear.

"Whether it's promotion, or delving into forbidden knowledge, a sufficiently stable [anchor] is a prerequisite.

In addition to the family members who have been confirmed to be all dead, the core vassals who have been hunted down may not be able to escape a few.

But there are only so many anchors in me that represent interpersonal relationships, and I must not give them up!

It was imperative to break into the York Party.

This whirlpool in Iron Anchor Bay is my best chance. ”

Compared to those close to him, Byron never feared the liquidation and slaughter of the Lancastrian Party's largest number of non-core vassals, officers, and soldiers.

It's not that Byron is utilitarian and cold.

It's because even when his uncle [Mad King] Henry VI was intermittently ill, it was impossible for him to do such a crazy thing.

Anyone who has lived in the countryside will probably know it deeply.

How much energy can a thriving land-sitting household have in the local area?

What's more, the lords who monopolized the local politics, economy, culture, justice and other aspects, and even used knights and private soldiers to master the local military?

The tree has deep roots and intertwined roots, and for them, it is really not an empty word.

It is normal to die in war, but to die in a massacre in a state of non-war is 100 percent to provoke further rebellion.

After all, even the centralized emperor of the Celestial Empire can't help the gate valve in the country, so why should the king who is limited by the [Magna Carta]?

Whoever sits on the throne needs their help.

Byron knew that during the war, much of Lancaster's land and wealth had been used to buy off the nobles in the hope of gaining their support.

It is not uncommon for the eldest son in a family to be in Lancaster and the second son to work in York.

If it is really completely purged from top to bottom, the ruling order of the entire country will also be shaken, and the king himself will have to do it.

Byron believed that he had the strength to bring back Hattings.

These people have the potential to become their own potential strength, and they are also their potential anchors!

As long as... It can bring them greater benefits.

Now his most urgent task is to focus on improving his own strength.

Wait until late at night.

Several second-order professional-level transcendents of the privateer alliance were spared one after another.

Byron finally saw two staggering first-order attendants, coming out of a Moulin Rouge theater and a bar two minutes apart.

One to the east and one to the west.

After weighing it up, Byron signaled to the shadows and quietly followed the one heading east.

Without him, I purely feel that after the enthusiasm of the dancers, this one's physical strength must be worse!

......

Franklin Joshuael, the naturalist of the Tower Sequence.

Sequence Proverbs: Expelling Ignorance with Knowledge!

Naturalists are undoubtedly the most knowledgeable people in the world, and they have a high degree of universality for all kinds of extraordinary abilities.

In the acolyte stage, you can ignore knowledge, cut inscriptions, chant, and use all witchcraft creations, curiosities, and holy relics without threshold.

At least they can play their basic abilities.

If it is a general-purpose extraordinary device, it can exert effects that far exceed those of other professions and greatly reduce side effects.

In their brains there is also a public library called the Key to Omniscience, which is divided into seven levels, just like the level of the law.

The higher the rank of a naturalist, the higher the level of knowledge that can be touched.

It is even possible to retrieve all the knowledge available to humans.

It's a pity that although he is a [jack-of-all-trades] who knows everything, he just doesn't understand human feelings!

The Privateer accepted the mission issued by Edward the Redbeard, but was assassinated because he feared that he would be confused in the future.

restrained almost all the first-order attendant-level transcendents from going out, but instead let him and another unlucky ghost hang out.

As a naturalist, how could he not know why?

Even the deaf know that there is a [Wild Hunt] who is frantically hunting the pirates of the Privateer Alliance.

This morning, even the mid-sequence transcendent [Redbeard] Captain Edward was attacked in full view, which shows the madness of the attackers.

The Privateer Alliance immediately began to carry out the "Beast Cage Operation" to capture [Wild Hunt].

And the two of them first-order squires were just the bait.

The captains were worried that sending only one person would make the [Wild Hunt] suspicious, so they simply sent two, and arranged for the [Faceling] and [Ripper] to ambush each other.

As long as either side allows [Wild Hunt] to bite the hook, this henchman will definitely die!

It is also to blame Franklin for claiming to be one of the few learned pirates, who is too lonely and has always looked down on other vulgar pirates who can't even read a word.

But he likes to spy on other people's secrets, especially the side effects of various taboo knowledge.

This desire is also almost strong to the point of "price".

It was just a few days that offended a lot of people.

When [Know-it-all] asked people today why Captain Redbeard couldn't die, he was decisively pushed out as a bait.

"I'm just an ordinary scholar, more interested in treasure hunting than murder and arson, and I just want to follow Redbeard to see the great secret treasure of the Wanmin legend.

Don't come to me, if you do, go to [Hunter] Black! ”

At this time, Franklin, who was not a combat profession, was like a frightened bird, walking on the road and looking at everything suspiciously.

I don't know where the enemy is, and I don't know where the "yellow finch" that the alliance arranged to protect itself is.

Tightly clenched the few [Whalebone Talismans] in his pocket that he had only bought at a great price.

Da!

In the darkness, where he could only hear his own pounding heartbeat, a very obvious footstep sounded suddenly.

Franklin carefully looked behind him with the silver mirror he had carried, only to see that there was no one at all.

I couldn't help but recall the legend of [Wild Hunt] in the mouth of the Wanmin.

They were originally here to do bad things in Iron Anchor Bay.

Even though he knew that the attackers were eighty percent human, not some local elves or ghosts, he still couldn't help but become more and more afraid the more he thought about it.

[Jack of Trades] is like the six predecessors who fell under Byron's sword in the past, gradually losing their rhythm and running faster and faster.

And the footsteps behind him followed closely.

First, Gus, who couldn't wait to complete [Ritual: Phantom Slayer's Serial Murder], quietly followed.

Then came Byron, who activated the [Cognitive Correction].

A tactic that has proven superior will only be perfected until it actually fails, and will not be discarded at will.

Their hunting methods are no exception.

It's just a little different from the previous operations.

Just when Byron made a gesture to Gus and motioned for him to make a move, he suddenly heard behind him, unexpectedly... There was also the sound of footsteps!
