Chapter 66: My Backhand Is a Report (Ask for the First Order)
"Light as a swallow!"
The Gunpowder Artist pronounced the [Cutting Inscription], and the [Strange Boots: Petrel Wings] on his feet grew two pairs of small wings.
Let her be like a petrel, nimbly shuttling through the streets and alleys of the city, quickly patrolling every crime reported by the sheriffs.
But everywhere she passed, the evil things disappeared as if they had encountered the shadow of a bonfire.
Unless they took the initiative to come out, with the strength of a dignified third-order [craftsman], she would be helpless to take those things.
For a moment, she felt almost the same annoyance and powerlessness as Byron had lost all her loved ones.
"If it weren't for the sudden death of Uncle Dennis, who was already in poor health, ten days ago, this election would not have been so passive.
According to the principle that whoever gains is the mastermind.
Redbeard's voice is the highest, but the deputy speaker who is very hidden is the most suspicious! ”
The more the gunpowder artist thought about it, the more he felt that all kinds of spearheads seemed to be pointed at the number two of the captains' council at the same time.
The death of his own parents is also full of suspicions.
The current Overseer is called Dennis, and he is a third-order [Bayfolk Berserker] of the Lighthouse Sequence!
He inherited the title of "Child Guard", which has been passed down from generation to generation among the people of the Bay.
No one can say for sure how long the title has been in existence, except that it has its roots in a figure from ancient legends.
He got his name because he refused to pierce children with the tip of his spear and disemboweled them during the raids.
The reason for the birth of this title can only be said to be an explosion of three views in the eyes of modern people.
However, when the Legend level exceeds [20], the additional abilities that are born are very powerful.
It's called [The Immortal Body]:
"When you protect children and the younger generations of your clan, you will receive the blessings of the [Child Guards] of the past generations, and your strength, stamina, and defense will be greatly improved.
And definitely not to be knocked down by the enemy!
Even if they are unfortunately killed, the corpse will continue to fight until it is completely broken and unable to stand up.
As long as you don't fall, you can always vent the terrifying destructive power.
Complements the Berserker class. ”
Before the North Sea Pirate King [Whale Hunter] left Iron Anchor Bay, he entrusted Iron Anchor Bay and his daughter Violet to his care.
Although he is very old and suffers from the long-term overdraft of the Berserker profession, he has more than enough to protect a junior.
But ten days ago, this pillar-like transcendent man unexpectedly deteriorated and passed away suddenly.
Violet doesn't know what's going on with Dennis the Child Guard.
I don't know that the day he died on October 22 was actually the same day that Byron broke through [Storm Knight].
Byron saw with his own eyes the whole process of a lighthouse beside him, which symbolized another lighthouse sequence transcendent, being suddenly dragged into the essentia sea.
"It's November 2, 1471.
Unless they brave the rough seas to cross the North Sea, the pirates meeting in Iron Anchor Bay will be trapped here for the next two to three months.
There is no escape, no call for help, and if we can't solve this problem, I'm afraid that Iron Anchor Bay will become a huge slaughterhouse. ”
Before she knew it, Violet had gone to Sheriff Weber's precinct again, and found that the old man had obviously been waiting for a long time, and was walking from side to side with some restlessness.
As soon as he saw the gunpowder artist, the sheriff immediately greeted him, and without regard for etiquette, he reached out and handed over a letter.
"Princess, someone quietly put a report letter in my pocket and asked me to send it to the high-ranking people of the bay.
I think you should take a look. ”
"Report letter?"
After Violet checked that the letter was not abnormal, she unfolded the letter with some confusion.
"This is Hastings? White Rose? Black Mass? ”
Her pupils shrank suddenly, and the contents of the letter set off a storm in her heart.
Because as detailed above, the real enemy that Iron Anchor Bay has to face is not Redbeard.
It's the White Rose York family standing behind him!
It also explains the plans of the Redbeard and the privateer alliance, the role of the silver octopus, the ritual of the Black Mass blood sacrifice, speculation about the "natural disaster", and so on.
It also brings out the treacherous situation that the people of Iron Anchor Bay and Northland Bay are about to face.
Inside the envelope there are even two Silver Octopus Coins that can be used to join the ceremony!
In addition to an emergency contact information, there is only one signature: Good Citizen of Iron Anchor Bay.
"Is this news true or false?"
Violet, who was in a state of flux, was only a third-order [craftsman] and had never mastered high-level prophecy.
But there is no problem in judging whether the information on a letter is true or false.
She took out a dice from a cowhide waist bag around her waist that looked ordinary but was actually a spatial curiosity [Traveler's Bag].
There are many types of dice in the world, which are generally divided into tetrahedron, hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron
But this dice are different, they are the smallest and most magical [two-sided dice].
There are only two outcomes after the roll.
Well, the Oddities Dice is actually a coin.
On one side is written "yes" in Luenwen, and on the other side is written "no".
"Is the information on this letter true?"
After Violet asked the question, she threw two dice.
The dice hit the ground with the "yes" side facing up.
The information is true.
When I wanted to tell the identity of the letter writer, even if I just wanted to know whether the other party was a man or a woman, the coin stood upright on the ground.
Divination failed.
Seeing this, Violet only groaned slightly, and then made up her mind.
"Absorbing elements? The convergence effect? The target is the entire Bay Nation group? ”
She put a drop of her own blood on each of the two silver coins and put it in her coat pocket.
It means that she chose to join the Black Mass ceremony on her own initiative.
It's crazy, but it's efficient enough.
When the crisis came, she, the princess of the bay, was the first to bear the brunt.
Now that the mountain doesn't come to me, I'll go to the mountain, and those evil spirits and grotesques will take the initiative to send it to her sooner or later in order to get the silver coin.
Moreover, Violet's game-breaking method coincides with Byron's.
"Who said that the group element of ritual positioning can only come from us Wan people?
If you want to play, let's play a big one, and no one of the 'good friends' is missing! ”
The smile was slightly cold, and the cloak on his body shook him, and his whole body slowly melted into the night wind
Byron and his party, who quietly returned to Iron Anchor Bay again, were like a group of rookie pirates, who had nothing to do with the former [Man-Eating Shark] from beginning to end.
Gus had already heard that Harvey, the first mate of the Nemesis, was recruiting free pirates.
Byron immediately sent Bruch as the first mate of the Golden Deer to represent the entire ship under Redbeard's command.
And he himself after writing the report letter and asking [Phantom Blade] Gus to quietly send it to the sheriff.
He changed his clothes and slipped off the Golden Deer alone.
Leave me alone in such a dangerous situation?
Joke, my backhand is a report!
As for the silver coin he left, he also dripped a drop of blood and put it in his pocket.
As a certified [henchman], it has become his instinct to join if he can't beat it.
Why did he keep one for two others?
Of course, because "I am the pioneer" also has to pay attention to strategy, and the people of the bay are relatively large, so they naturally have to be in front.
It's just that in the eyes of others, they are two complete crazy people.
In the kind of story that Byron is most annoying, the two sides misunderstand and entangle, but they kill the riddler who doesn't tell it.
Make friends more, enemies fewer and few, and everyone will be on the side by side when there is something.
Otherwise, the first one to die is the lone hero!
I have intelligence, you have fists, and cooperation is mutually beneficial, so why not?
Cleared most of the fog of war, let the Wanmin side know where the enemy is, what plans and hole cards he has, and then counterattack can be targeted.
"Emaciated camels are bigger than horses.
can make the York family go through such a lot of effort, and the strength of the Wanmin is by no means weak.
It's impossible to be a free pirate without a fair number of allies.
Perhaps in the face of that unknown being, he is as powerless as Lancaster, but he has absolutely no problem dealing with conventional enemies. ”
As for Byron himself?
[Cognitive Correction] was quietly activated, and he swaggered onto the Redbeard's [Nemesis].
After all, he has to be the man standing behind the big guy!
