Chapter 191: If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight

Megnella and Byron agreed that three military attachΓ©s would serve as liaisons during her absence from Bantaan, who would be responsible for liaising with other "talents" in the Iris colony.

Then he took his leave and set off to return to the Old World.

When Byron was sending this cheap aunt on board, the other party seemed to suddenly remember something, and instructed him:

"The Newman family has sent me an invitation to the engagement of Miss Tillill and the pirate general Bill (chapter 167).

I don't have time to take a break, so you can take Jacqueline with you then.

I've seen that Miss Tilier in Port Royal, even if it's a hungry guy like Jacqueline."

Seeing that her daughter, who had come to see her off, was quietly pursed, Meganella glared at her fiercely again before continuing:

"Even this kind of hungry and lustful [chameleon] should have a bottom line for the definition of beauty.

I don't think she'll be so disrespectful as to ruin Mr. Bill and Miss Tyryl's engagement.

What do you think? Miss Jacqueline? ”

The girl spit out the tip of her pink tongue, and seeing that the old mother was about to get angry again, she hurriedly stood up and saluted:

"Mother, don't worry, I won't do anything to that Miss Tyril.

After coming to the Bantaan Islands, those married and unmarried ladies often organized parties, and I had already dealt with this young lady.

I used to stay away from her every time I had a meeting, and you sent Dinah, who kept an eye on me all day, to testify for me. ”

Meganella was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that this uneasy daughter had finally grown up a little after suffering a loss in the Silver Empire.

At least I already know that you can't just mess with someone you shouldn't mess with.

Just listen to the girl continue to herself:

"At the party, there are countless married and unmarried beauties.

Which of our Iris Governors, Shanna of the Leopold family, and the Eve and Doroth sisters of the Hansen family of the Rhine League, is not much stronger than her?

Wouldn't it be bad if these sweethearts thought I had a problem with my taste?

I, Jacqueline, would never make such a low-level mistake. ”

When she said this, the girl with a smug face also knew that she was speechless, and suddenly covered her mouth and stared at a pair of almond eyes cutely.

"The Governor's daughter? Sister flowers? Jacqueline β€”β€”!!! ”

The angry Meganilla almost jumped back from the battleship that had already left the port, and hung up this unfilial girl who was hard to shake and remembered to eat and beat, and then whipped it hard.

The fierce light in his eyes flickered for a while, and in the end, he only sighed a little exhausted, and decided that out of sight was pure.

He gave Byron an apologetic look and waved his hand weakly.

"Thank you for your hard work, I'll add money when I come back."

Suddenly opened her red lips and spit out a series of subdued notes in the tone of a soprano.

"Ahhh

The notes vibrate the ubiquitous source matter, resonate with the harmony, and in an instant, a vivid picture is revealed:

The captain of a large ship sailing away with a clenched steering wheel took off his three-cornered hat and saluted the send-off with a smile.

Then the phantom of the great ship fell towards the ship she was on.

The latter seemed to have suddenly gained its own soul, the wind, waves, and sails were perfectly integrated, and the speed of the ship immediately increased dramatically.

This is a third-order [Great Singer] who has obtained the core ability [Soul Singer] at the second order:

"Singing different tracks can achieve different effects such as attack, defense, movement, support, buff, and so on."

Relying on this panacea-like ability, the singer has become one of the necessary auxiliary transcendents in the official and unofficial teams.

Even if there is no chaplain on board to solve the psychological problems of the crew, there must be a singer.

Meganilla just sang the symphony "The Sea and Sinbad's Boat", which was imitated by singing, and the effect was to ride the wind and waves, increase the speed by 20%, and maintain the time for one hour.

Of course.

Every singer has his own area of expertise, if he can't experience the essence and mood of some songs, and has no compatibility with them, even if he is killed, he will not be able to sing effectively.

When they reach the third level, they can [improvise and sing] and compose their own exclusive songs.

It can be 100% compatible.

The higher the quality, the higher the popularity in the world, and the better the extraordinary effect that can be played.

Looking at the powerful abilities shown by this aunt, Byron's expectations for Jacqueline's child have also risen a lot.

"In addition to looking at the face of money, this second-order [singer] from a famous family can just make up for the shortcomings of the team.

The effect of the war song with the heroic wild water is very worth looking forward to.

In addition, I now have a graduate of the Vinaya Academy of Arts, majoring in painting and sculpture, and Violet who is also studying classical dance.

Because of the big incident, he had to drop out of the Vinaya Academy of Arts, a graduate of the Academy of Arts, Jacqueline, who majored in opera.

I don't know if there will really be a student from the art academy in the future, so that I can completely complete the collection card and produce special effects. ”

Byron had just withdrawn his gaze from the distant battleship when he noticed Miss Jacqueline, the chameleon, quietly standing in front of him.

The strange smile on her face made a beautiful girl with short hair inexplicably show a hint of the greasy temperament of a veteran of flowers.

"Now, Mr. Governor, you will be my captain from now on, and I will be your crew.

I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt like I knew each other at first sight.

If you're a girl, I can't help but want to pursue you.

However, since he has become his own person, he can't help but take care of his good brother if he has benefits. ”

As he spoke, he put an arm on Byron's shoulder, without any sense of boundary at all.

Realizing what she was going to say, Byron's heart was alarmed.

This girl, who was tall among women, had already stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear:

"I heard that you are very familiar with that great beauty [Flower of the North] Miss Catherine, how about you take the time to introduce you to me?"

Byron glanced at her with a cross-eyebrow:

"Not very good.

[Chameleon] Miss, you better think about your less than 100 catties of meat first, and it will be enough for a few bitter masters to distribute in the future.

It's not a good quality to start a mess and give up.

And I'm the Countess's [Guardian Knight], the last woman who thought about Catherine, and now even the bones have melted. ”

Jacqueline, apparently unconvinced, grimaced at him:

"Stingy.

What is the beginning of chaos and the end of abandonment? Don't say it so badly.

I just want to give all girls a home, what's wrong with me?

When I love one, I love the other in my heart.

And the love of spiritual purity, which a layman like you does not understand at all.

Besides, my mother is cousin to your Prince of Sorenburg of Hastens, and Sister Catherine is the adopted daughter of the Prince's family.

That's about my cousin.

When I saw my cousin, I asked to sleep with her at night, and she would have agreed.

Envy, right? Jealous, right? Eh, hey, hey."

Byron shrugged indifferently.

Joke, I'll tell you, I've rolled her bed eight hundred times?

"Huh? Lancaster's crypto codeword? ”

Just as he was about to sneer at each other, his heart suddenly moved.

He was ostensibly talking to Jacqueline, but secretly [Golden Law] had monitored the every move of the three Lancastrians behind him.

Even if you want to make contact, you must do a good job of intelligence work in advance to be prepared.

Rebellion is not a dinner party, and if you are not careful, you will lose everything.

The three of them appeared to be normal security personnel who were doing their duty, but their naturally drooping fingers were moving in an imperceptible rhythm.

Long, short, long, long, short

Byron read it with ease, and mentally transformed it into normal text according to Lancaster's internal translation rules:

"Miss Jacqueline has been tempted, and the target and Miss Catherine should be mere collaborators for the time being.

Otherwise, at this time, you should take the initiative to curry favor with Miss Jacqueline, exert your strength from the side, and do everything you can to pursue Miss Catherine. ”

"Not necessarily.

There is another possibility, that is, he already has a close relationship with Miss Catherine, and he does not care about Miss Jacqueline's small favors at all.

Do you say that it is possible that Miss Catherine, whose power is now the most intact and even rapidly expanding, has abandoned Her Highness? ”

"Shut up! We've discussed this internally many times.

I believe in Miss Catherine's character.

Now that we have seen His Highness's wanted warrant, she must have seen it too.

Compared to us, she is the one who longs for His Highness's return the most.

Miss Catherine must have been bearing the burden of humiliation like us, silently accumulating strength and waiting for His Highness's return.

No, not His Highness, as the last Lancaster, he is Byron I, the next king of the Mandate of Heaven in the kingdom of Hattings!

The day he returns will be when he will be beheaded by the puppet king of Edward IV. ”

The York family originally thought that they would soon be able to take down the [Devil's Son], so they announced the wanted warrant.

Who would have thought that the offshore sea would lose once, and the Iron Anchor Bay would lose again.

Byron, however, is getting stronger and stronger, and is now even on the verge of hollowing out the overseas colonies of the Hattings.

And even the mere news that Byron Lancaster is still alive gives the remnants of the gang endless confidence.

"To be on the safe side, after two days to get a little familiar, I will take the initiative to ask to be transferred to the port of Georgetown, and you two will be responsible for cooperating with me.

When the time comes, we will get the pass of the [Sea Hunter], which is much better than we stupidly breaking into it ourselves.

I've heard that in the underground black market, Georgetown Harbor has become a no-go zone for all intelligence officers, and the defense forces are terrifying.

When I get there, I will contact Miss Catherine and find a way to take away the power of the Sea Hunters and present it to Your Majesty. ”

In just a few words, Byron understood their general idea.

A part of the Lancastrian Party managed to escape to Bantaan, but had no intention of going incognito.

After all, the proverb of the people of Wanmin is: If there is revenge, you will get revenge!

One of the most powerful ex-Lancasters on the surface is Catherine, Countess of Greenville.

Now I just want to fight in a roundabout way, use the foreign aid of Iris, use myself as a springboard, get close to Catherine, and then accumulate strength overseas to fight back.

"Hehe, this circle is completely closed.

I want to swallow the Newman family in one bite with my 'henchmen', and even take the entire Hattings colony.

The Newman family wants to use the hands of the Sea Hunters to swallow the titles, fiefs and possessions of the Greenville family, and then wait until the time to abandon my black glove in the future, and completely launder the gray assets.

Now the Lancastrian Party wants to use Catherine's hand to seize the property of the Sea Hunter and destroy the Newman family.

This little cousin is probably not a simple 'playboy' with only women in his head, and it is even very likely that he is one of the in-depth participants in the plan. ”

Although when they chose [Sea Hunter] as the entry point, they were destined to be a big oolong.

But this kind of scene where a bunch of people pin their hopes and even all their lives on you, throwing their heads and spilling blood for you, still makes Byron feel a little heavier on his back.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!

His understanding of this sentence was suddenly more profound than ever.

With so much power comes great responsibility.

This is not only his own life, but also the life of another group of people.

Just as the birth of every relic has its historical mission, this is also the destiny that the "Last Lancaster" needs to undertake.

In Byron's current position, he is no longer qualified to say irresponsibly: I won't play anymore, and then retire to the countryside.

Can Game of Thrones be something you don't play if you don't play it?

The story of the "Double Dragon" in Byron's memory that killed all his subordinates is extremely absurd and unsettled.

He couldn't even take half a step back now.

Of course, it will not be refunded.

Thinking of this, the invisible [anchor chain] on his body added many roots out of thin air, and his spirit became more stable.

However, Byron still decided to wait until he was promoted to the third rank and then find an opportunity to summon the old ministry to find out his identity.

Identity is identity, power is power, only power cannot win people's hearts, only identity is easy to be hollowed out.

The combination of two swords can be invincible!

Byron simply arranged a few people, and he got back on track with the construction of the Riptide Fortress.

The construction of ancillary facilities has also begun at the same time, and the processing equipment of the stone factory that has been built as a priority has been brought in ahead of schedule.

"It's time for me to go to Port Royal again to sweep the autumn breeze.

Torrent Fortress must not be interrupted by external blood transfusions until it has formed a mass production capacity.

It just so happens that as long as there is money, the Newman family dares to sell anything.

Without their support, fortress guns, shipbuilding equipment, mining equipment, metallurgical equipment, and windmill components would have been difficult to buy with money. ”

However, when he prepared the ship the next day, he was about to make a deep sea jump to restock.

Unexpectedly, he received a summons from Major General Newman first, and his tone was unconcealable:

"Byron, it's not good, I just got the news.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer has secretly sent a team of tax officers to our Port Royal to check the accounts. ”
