Chapter 64: Big Break! Martyrdom!

As he spoke, Wyandot had stepped forward and looked at Byron expectantly.

Others think more about the opportunity cost, is it worth it if there is no chance of meritorious service in the next three months?

The indigenous slave thought differently.

The White Leather Contracted Slaves from the countries of the Old World were originally sold not in Iron Anchor Bay, but in the colonies of the Bantaan Islands.

The original destination of the natives of the Bantaan Islands was not here, but the slave markets of the countries of the Old World.

The main purpose of selling them in other places was to get the slaves to leave their familiar living environment, which greatly increased the cost of escape.

And that's exactly what happened.

Now the only person on board these indigenous slaves could rely on was Captain Byron.

They are also more eager than anyone to seize every opportunity for a salted fish to turn over!

Byron took a deep look at the young man, who was extremely prestigious among the native slaves, and then swept the [Logbook] record of the specialties of each crew member.

So he nodded decisively and agreed to his initiative:

"Then I'll see, Mr. Wyndotte."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Excellency!"

After the indigenous youth learned the etiquette of the Old World and stroked their chests and bowed.

Immediately led his own people to pounce on the 32-pounder Caron gun, replacing the original crew.

A gun crew usually consisted of five men, and Wyandott himself served as the first gunner, commonly known as the commander of the gun.

After the last round of fire, the artillery recoil caused the block to jerk back.

Gunner No. 2 immediately stepped forward and cleaned the barrel with a long rod wrapped in wet sponge, extinguishing the remaining sparks inside and preventing the cartridge from being ignited prematurely.

Next to him, there were already other logistics crews in charge of support, using the fire to burn the solid cast iron bullets red.

Gunner No. 3 stuffed the gun into the chamber of the gun in turn: the cartridge pack, the plug for fixing the projectile, a large lump of wet mud, a red-hot projectile, and a second stopper.

The mud is not humidified during the normal firing process, and the wet mud here is apparently to prevent the red-hot projectile from igniting the propellant.

Despite the fact that the Glow Bomb is a hassle to use, its power can completely cover up this small flaw, and it has always been a favorite of gunners.

When No. 3 finished charging, No. 2 gunner used a bore rod to push them together to the bottom of the barrel and completely pestle them.

Gunner No. 4 pierced the cartridge through the ignition hole and filled the tank with gunpowder.

The gunners on both sides pulled the ropes to reset the guns, and Commander Wyndott was responsible for adjusting the angle of fire and finally completing the aiming of the [Rainbow].

The last fifth gunner, after he had taken aim at the target, waited for the firing order with a flintlock in his hand.

These natives were extremely skilled in their cooperation, and the whole process only took a minute, which made the pirates of the Old World who helped next to them look at it in amazement.

This basic skill alone can firmly occupy a place on the ship.

It's just that the Age of Discovery, 70 years have passed, and now the natives of the Bantaan Islands can no longer be described as primitive people.

There are many indigenous pirates who have made a name for themselves on the new routes, and no one is surprised or discriminated against.

"North wind, wind speed 8 m/s, wave height 1.4 m, distance 105 m, two ships relatively stationary"

While using his [Mount] skill to control the Golden Deer to maintain his distance, Byron reported to him the shooting yuan through [Weather Intuition] and the logbook.

If there is a lighthouse sequence [gunnery expert] on the ship, even if it is only a first-order squire, there is no need for such trouble.

"Intuition" is already the most powerful sight of the [Gunner] expert.

Byron couldn't help but think of the [gunpowder artist] in Iron Anchor Bay again, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

That one is stronger, I really want it, it's much easier than working hard to cultivate it from scratch. ’

At the moment when the hull of the ship rose and fell regularly and reached the highest point, Wyndot decisively ordered.

"Fire!"

Bang!

A visible line of crimson fire left a bright trail in the air and slammed down on the bow of the Rainbow.

As expected, the Scorching Bullet easily pierced through the wooden hull.

Unfortunately, the landing point was not in the powder magazine, but continued to fly out through the hull on the other side.

"Keep loading!"

Wyandot was not impatient, and Byron was not in a hurry.

Even in the era of dreadnoughts in the previous life, at least six naval guns were required to launch a salvo with the fire control system to ensure a basic hit rate.

In his view, the significance of military training is greater than the significance of killing the enemy.

It's a big deal that after the gunner's defeat, he will personally remedy it.

Two pirate ships, one advancing and one retreating, entered a tug-of-war.

In this kind of actual combat drill like a sniper at sea, the crew's abilities are quickly honed into a whole.

Gunnery coordination, battleship maneuverability, steering performance, and windward performance gradually form the complete combat effectiveness that a pirate ship should have.

Seeing that seven shots were fired in a row, two of them landed below the waterline, which is enough to show the superb gunnery of the indigenous Wyandot.

But it was a little bit of luck that it failed to cause a martyrdom.

The indigenous youth, who was also so nervous that his forehead was sweating, held a pendant made of an eagle's beak around his neck, and kept praying in the indigenous language.

Byron also realized that the mission he had released might be too difficult for the current mortal crew.

So I decided to help him again.

Give the steering wheel to Bruch, the Knight of Oath who also has the basic [Mount] skill.

Tell everyone not to panic whatever they see and to walk up to the stern alone.

Facing the human-faced whale lice on the Rainbow, the eyes bloomed with inspiration, and the words in his mouth were recited:

"I'm a baleen whale, I'm a baleen whale"

[Cognitive Correction] activated!

Under everyone's gaze, he seems to have really become a baleen whale that whale lice love.

Humans have the intelligence to realize that it's fake even if they can't see through it, but those silly grotesques cannot.

The squeaky monster screamed and followed the stern of the [Rainbow], which is also the closest place to the "baleen whale" in a straight line.

The weight of hundreds of crew members and numerous whale lice immediately shifted the privateer's center of gravity.

As a result, the bow part of the ship is raised high, revealing a pitch-black bottom that is more coated with black material (to prevent maggots) below the waterline.

And this time, Wyandott finally jumped at the chance.

"Fire!"

Along with the cannon flames, there were two loud roars in quick succession.

A blazing fireball shot into the sky with countless broken limbs, insect corpses, wooden planks, and even bronze cannons.

The countless human-faced whale lice hiding in the boat didn't even have time to jump into the sea to escape, and they were completely engulfed in the raging flames.

Privateers are wrecked!

"Martyrdom!"

"Roaring ——!"

The crew raised their arms and cheered, and the members of the gun crew who fired this cannon jumped up directly with excitement.

"Then, a few of you will assign it yourself."

Byron lifted the [Cognitive Correction] and without saying a word, he threw a bottle of [Angel's Kiss] to Wyandott.

He has his own set of management principles: result definition, one-to-one responsibility, process checks, instant incentives!

Regardless of whether it is tricky or not, as long as the predetermined result is completed and the person responsible can be rewarded on the spot, it will never be delayed until the next day.

Seeing that the captain had fulfilled his promise in accordance with the [Ten Commandments of Pirates], the cheers of the crew became even more frenzied.

Byron nodded to Wyndotra, who bowed deeply to him, thinking that he might really have the potential to become a lighthouse sequence [gunnery expert].

Not only did he not feel the pain of the reward he paid, but he was full of joy at discovering a man who could be made.

The battle is over.

Surrounded by their companions, the indigenous youth walked into the cabin and couldn't wait to drink the "Angel's Kiss".

I didn't take the side effects to heart: "I desperately longed for mother's love today".

Still, it doesn't matter.

Although no one here can sing a lullaby to Wyandott and slap his ass to lull him to sleep.

But Byron had already prepared a cow in the cabin that was in the middle of milking, hoping to help him.

"I've always been steady.

You're welcome, please call me a good captain of the North Sea! ”

At this time, a group of man-eating sharks also swam over.

In addition to feasting, he did not forget to catch all the complete loot, as well as the two silver octopus coins dropped by the sacrifice.

The number of silver coins in Byron's hand reached three, and the information was further completed.

In addition to the original effect one:

"Whenever there is a homicide within a hundred meters of the silver coin, the elements of the person killed will be collected.

The most representative group identity tags will be marked and placed in the sight of an unknown being.

As long as you carry silver coins with you, you can't be divined by prophecy below the high level, and you can't be tracked by the law. ”

[Logbook] reads effect 2 again:

"After the Black Mass is opened, all the presence of silver coins is part of the ritual.

It will definitely chase the established group elements, and finally let the silver coins complete the aggregation.

In the meantime, even the Silver Coin Maker will no longer be able to control or spy on them, unless they also want to be targeted and become part of the ritual! ”

There is also effect three: "It is said that thirty silver coins are the price for the sale of the Holy Son."

And the full name of the only god in the world is called the Bound Creator, who bears the sins of all mankind with his own suffering.

If the freaks can collect all thirty silver coins in the set, they can complete the [Black Mass] ritual and redeem themselves.

But it will also eventually awaken the master to whom the ritual is truly directed. ”

At the same time, the resolution density of [Covert: Admiralty's Conspiracy, Historical Influence 20] has been increased from 70% to 75%.

Byron felt that he only needed to know the name of the existence to fully understand the conspiracy of York and the Admiralty.

By the way, in addition to [History Reviser] and [Henchman], I have gained a third entry.

After listening to the information shared by Byron, Gus, whose hometown, all his friends and acquaintances were in Iron Anchor Bay, was the first to sit still.

"Whatever the ritual ultimately points to, just a dozen or so grotesque scuffles of evil sects would be a huge disaster for Iron Anchor Bay.

Captain, we must go and inform Uncle Webb so that the sheriff and the law enforcement team are ready. ”

Byron, of course, could not have allowed Redbeard's plan to carry out smoothly.

"The Privateer Coalition gathered elements with the [Black Mass] ritual and prepared to meet that thing.

Both York and Redbeard were afraid of becoming part of the ritual and entering the sight of that being, so they didn't dare to make too much contact.

And I and the people here have long been targeted by that thing, and we don't care about being looked at by it again, and we can completely replace the evil spirit. ”

Byron's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered:

"Homecoming! I probably know how to break the game. ”
