Three days later.

Yucatan, Rapids Fortress.

The first layer of the foundation has been laid for this large bastion, and the second layer of granite walls has begun to be laid at a rapid pace.

Byron, who was still supervising the work, looked at the construction speed of a group of [Spirit Bear Warriors] comparable to that of large machines, but he was unexpectedly a little uneasy.

Miss Jacqueline, the chameleon, who had just joined him, sat dejectedly like a frosted eggplant.

Even a lot of young and beautiful indigenous girls with bear ears on their heads walked by, and she didn't react.

It's been a whole day, and she hasn't even whistled.

Although the troubles of the two of them are not the same, they are all related to the same person.

"Alas!"

The cheap cousins looked at each other and let out a long sigh.

Byron tilted his head and looked in the direction of the Tayman Islands.

"Jacqueline's troubles are nothing compared to me.

What's wrong with social death, do you still care about such trivial things with a cheeky skin? ”

Three days ago at Bill and Tyrell's engagement ceremony.

Jacqueline finally met the [Northland Flower], [Mithril Dragon], and Catherine, Countess of Greenville, who also went to Port Royal because of the [Kingmaker] order.

As the status of the international port gradually stabilized, Catherine, as a lord, naturally rose to the top.

What's more, whether it is her own stunning beauty in the world, or the well-organized economic means that she controls the financial power of the international port and the pioneer bank, and manages them.

All of them have made her one of the most dazzling pearls in the entire Bantaan Islands.

Even the legend degree is turning its head up, and I am afraid that it will soon reach the critical point of 20 points to break the circle and get its own title special effects.

It is no surprise that she has attracted the attention of guests from all over the world, and even the main character, Miss Tyril, has stolen most of the limelight.

Although, Tilier didn't have much limelight to speak of, no matter what wind blew her, she had to be hit her head.

There are many people who want to get in touch with Catherine, and even pretentious and want to kiss Fangze.

And Jacqueline, as a "chameleon" who becomes very whenever she sees a beautiful girl, is also one of them.

When Catherine walked into the garden, the exclusive lounge area of a group of famous ladies.

Jacqueline had just started to talk, when Catherine, who had been reminded by Byron in advance, was tied with a Mithril chain and hung from a tree.

In full view.

There is also a Mithril mouth ball stuffed in his mouth, and it is shaped into the shape of a rose on the outside of his lips.

In front of the [Mithril Dragon], this [Chameleon] was like being suppressed by blood, and there was not even the slightest room for resistance.

She wasn't put down again until the ceremony ended, and she still has a psychological shadow to this day.

"Ahhh

The happiness of thousands of beautiful girls is gone! ”

It can be said that this guy who has not changed his dead nature has died socially in the upper circles of the entire Bantaan Islands, especially in the circle of women.

I don't have the courage to talk to those aristocratic girls anymore.

Every time she thought of that scene, she wanted to use her toes to help Byron dig a riptide fortress on the island of Yucatan.

Catherine also became a hero in high society.

Every man of school age who mentions her should give her a thumbs up for her righteous act of punishing the "scourge".

Byron's distress is also associated with Catherine.

Because today is the day Violet arrives!

It's just that this Wanmin princess doesn't play her cards according to common sense at all.

Under the pretext that the Inquisition is hunting them down, she must recreate a new identity that has no connection to the past, and she will not let Byron arrange it for her.

said that he was going to appear in the Riptide Fortress with an unexpected identity for him.

Byron couldn't help but scratch his hair in annoyance.

"I've told her about the family, and she's seen from Lighthouse Weekly that I have a Mithril Dragon sister.

I also know what the attitude of a gold dollar sequence [Mithril Knight] is towards money.

But she didn't agree with my plan to divide Georgetown Harbor and Riptide Fortress, and it was so clear why the family should divide everything.

But I think Violet is actually reluctant to keep the money in her sister's hand in a pioneer bank. ”

Everyone knows how amazing the asset-heavy investment is, how long the profit cycle is, and how huge the risks in the middle are.

Byron never revealed to Catherine the overall plan of Riptide Fortress or the existence of Violet, a super gold-eater (Chapter 182).

The main worry is that if I really tell Catherine honestly.

Let her see that after investing in heavy assets, the bloody fiscal deficit of one year, two years, and three years will accidentally die.

But Violet, as an expert at spending money, also has her own set of theories.

If the construction of basic industry wants to land on paper, it must be a huge bottomless pit in the early stage.

It's not just about putting your own money into it, but also looking for strong investors if necessary, and even going on to issue bonds on a large scale.

With such a huge scale of funds, if it were not for the support of Catherine, the [Mithril Dragon], relying on them to do it secretly, the capital chain would break sooner or later.

Let the financial officer have a mental preparation in advance, and it should be easier to bear it at that time.

"So, where the hell did she go, and what surprise was she going to give me? I just hope it doesn't turn into a fright. ”

The more I think about it, the more bottomless I feel.

I couldn't help but take out the [Echo Conch] and asked again:

"My eldest lady, is it really okay with you over there?"

At this time, the distance between the two has been narrowed to the extent that instant communication is satisfied.

Violet, on the other end, tucked the conch between her shoulders and her ears, and said in a very relaxed tone, as if she were a veteran:

"Don't worry, don't worry, just leave it to me.

No matter how promising a project is, it takes a certain amount of skill to move forward.

Aren't you just worried that your sister won't be able to stand the stimulation?

Coincidentally, as an R&D person, one of the most powerful abilities is not the ability to innovate, but the ability to attract sponsorship and research funding.

You ordinary people spend money called consumption, and we [craftsmen] spend money, then it is called investment!

Let's make a bet that if I do it today, you'll call me a good sister three times. Bye-bye"

Then the girl hung up the communication and raised her hand to tear down a copy of the "Talent Recruitment Order" posted in the most conspicuous place in the international port of Grand Taymanan Island.

At this time, Violet actually concealed Byron and quietly came to Georgetown Port alone.

Compared to the attire of the naval officer on the road, it has changed a lot.

The only jewelry is two small pearl earrings on the earlobes.

The appearance that has been hidden by strange objects is intellectual and gentle, and with a round-framed tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of the nose, it is very different from the image of the past.

She wears a pale blue plain lady's dress, a white sunhat with a large brim, and a wooden suitcase in her hand.

The sea breeze stirred the hem of her skirt, revealing her slender ankles and a pair of white stiletto heels.

is clearly a lady full of scholarly temperament, which perfectly fits her identity as a master craftsman.

It's impossible to tell that her main job is actually a pirate overseer, one of the culprits of the flare explosion, and a proper top danger.

However, it may be that this new image is a little too weak and deceitful.

Especially when she was alone, in a place like the International Port.

Even with the good law and order that was forcibly suppressed by the "Storm Cloak", some guys couldn't help but be ready to move.

A pirate who was drunk in broad daylight immediately staggered over when he saw this beautiful girl who looked like an oil painting.

Somewhat intoxicated, he sniffed the sea breeze and slowly extended a hand towards her.

"Meimei, come and have a drink with me."

Behind him, presumably companions in the same boat, whistled excitedly.

Although under the suppression of the [Golden Law], they may not really dare to do anything out of the ordinary, but just bullying the weak girl itself has already made them extremely excited.

"Hmph."

Miss Artist immediately restrained her smile in front of Byron.

Her body didn't even move, but a fiery red spider came out of her pocket, crawled up to the pirate's neck and bit it hard.

He didn't even have time to scream, and turned into a raging bonfire.

It only took a few breaths to completely burn to ashes.

No matter how quiet Violet's appearance is, it can't change her essence as the daughter of the Pirate King, the reserve [Calamity Witch].

Unless it's in Byron's presence, he usually doesn't pay much attention to maintaining his own ladylike image.

Nine-tailed cats, shooting, walking the springboard, dragging the keel and other chilling punishments are just the usual daily life of this pirate princess.

At the same time, a trace of powerful spiritual oppression belonging to a third-order transcendent was released.

The few companions of the drunkard next to him didn't have the idea of asking the teacher at all, but were woken up on the spot one by one, and made amends again and again:

"Ahh Your Excellency, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”

"We'll clean Steve's ashes right away, so we won't stain your shoes."

As he spoke, he took off his coat and swept the path in front of Violet.

Obviously, everyone is equal before the law, but the third-order transcendent beings are even more equal than they are!

This is the fairness of the transcendent world.

It is already the greatest mercy for the superior not to take the initiative to oppress the weak, and more people have degenerated into "ancestral people" after gaining strength.

Violet didn't move, but looked up in the direction of the Doge's Palace, waiting silently.

In fact, it has been turned into a "dragon's lair" dedicated to Catherine, the regent.

In addition to the manual intervention of the "Storm Cloak", the legal network with Vincent, the royal bloodhound, as the core, will also report the anomaly to her as soon as possible.

Syllable!

A golden speck of light appeared in front of Violet, instantly expanding into a projection of Catherine's real life.

But it came here with the power of the regent.

Of course, the real power lord can also do it with the help of the iron law of royal power, but it is not as easy as her.

Two outstanding girls who are outstanding in their field to sparkle look at each other.

A blonde with fluttering hair, and his eyes seemed to flow with molten gold.

A man with silver hair as snow and blue eyes that sparkled like sapphire.

19-year-old Catherine and 20-year-old Violet, in fact, their birthdays are not a few months apart.

Catherine looked at the bookish scholar girl in front of her and frowned slightly:

"A strange third-order transcendent with no power?

What are you doing when you come to the International Port? ”

If she came for a provocation, she wouldn't mind fighting and showing off her lord's strength.

Violet raised the recruitment order that she had been holding in her hand and nodded to her:

"Mithril Dragon: Miss Catherine, right?

You've come just in time.

I've heard that the Vanguard Pilot Colonial Trading Company is looking for talent.

I want to get a position with you, and by the way, I have a big deal to talk to you about. ”

"Big deal? How big is it? ”

Violet smiled:

"Earn enough money to buy the entire Bantaan, for example!"

Wow –

Catherine's eyes flashed like a thunderbolt.
