"Your Excellency, please open the window, there is a letter from Miss Delia."

Hearing a string of childish children's voices from the mouth of the messenger tilting his head, Byron hurriedly opened the window and let the seagull flap its wings and fly into the room.

Seeing the number on one of the brass rings on its feet, he nodded to it in a friendly way:

"Mr. 9526, did you deliver the letter to Delia again this time, thank you for your hard work."

The Seagull Messenger saluted somewhat comically like a human, and handed Byron the satchel he was carrying:

"Yes, Your Excellency, here is a personal letter from her, and the other is important information that she has sent to you on behalf of the Federation as a liaison.

By the way, as usual, the postal service of the Federation is free for parliamentarians. ”

These seagull messengers have been domesticated and developed by the [Animal Tamer], and the excellent ones among them can not only speak, but even have an IQ that can reach the level of a child of seven or eight years old.

Even the most stupid kind, after the induction training of the "newspaper boy", will at least say: "Hello! "A serving of five copper folres." "Please pay for the newspaper!"

At present, due to the lack of development of papermaking technology on the mainland, the price of paper remains high, and it also needs to be delivered by sea and air, and a "Lighthouse Weekly" is not cheap.

A single newspaper can buy five standard ver breads, which is not at all something that the common people can afford to consume.

Anyway, the low literacy rate makes it impossible for them to use it at all.

It is worth mentioning that under his direction, the Pioneer Colonial Trading Company has begun to inspect sugar cane plantations and sugar mills, preparing to purchase bagasse in large quantities and start the "industrial papermaking" project.

Advanced papermaking is of great significance for the dissemination of knowledge.

By analogy, if it is put into the future, it will be an industrial pearl equivalent to the level of lithography machine.

Now, after the end of the dark millennium in which the Church blocked knowledge and suppressed scholars, the demand for knowledge and books at all levels is limitless.

Only sufficient paper and low enough learning costs can meet the preconditions for the spread of civilization and the explosion of science and technology.

Since then, all the development of science and technology and culture has been based on this small knowledge medium.

If Byron had done this, he would not have needed the recognition of the Church and the Pope, and the Silver Law would have to give him the title of "sage" himself.

The large number of artists who are Fei Lengcui also want everyone to read him well.

Byron took a stake in the church, preparing to take advantage of the future turmoil, and take advantage of the fire to rob and launch a plan to stab in the back, which seems to be fanciful, but in fact it is a seven-inch attack.

A group of cardinals and saints wanted to gain eternal life and become angels on earth by virtue of the Gospel of Heaven and the blood of eternal life, but Byron did not let them get their satisfaction!

Immediately, he took out the two letters in his satchel with his own hands.

The first one was from Delia, a reply to Byron.

"Mr. Captain, if you really don't mind that little flaw in me that is not about the mission.

I am willing to accept your invitation to serve as the Navigator and Prophet of the Golden Hart.

I don't care how much loot is distributed, I just hope that one day I'll have the opportunity to go to the end of the world and see it. ”

Concise and to the point, she accepted Byron's offer of a job for her.

In an elite expedition ship that explores the unknown, the most complete staffing typically includes:

"Captains, craftsmen, adventurers, hunters, gourmets, navigators, animal trainers, singers, navigators, naturalists, doctors, prophets, and combat professions are the absolute backbone and standard."

Byron has the professional abilities of the Storm Admiral, the Logbook of History, and the Compass of Desire, and can be the best captain and navigator himself, and then a cameo naturalist and doctor.

For some other key positions, many core members who have both forbidden knowledge and the ladder of glory can almost be filled part-time.

At least not a fatal shortcoming for the pirate ship.

But the most critical lighthouse sequence, the Navigator, is too rare.

The Golden Deer lacks a trustworthy navigator of at least the second order to be competent for the exploration mission in the "Serpent of the World: Celestial Circulation".

In this kind of profession with weak combat effectiveness, few individuals will take up a job, and it is usually specially cultivated by the big forces.

There were a few Lancastrians who fled to the Bantaan Islands, and the Flame Rose, who followed Violet here.

But Byron was not very satisfied after the inspection.

He is confident in himself and the logbook that sooner or later he will be able to rush to the first echelon, or even surpass the exploration progress of the first echelon, leading the era of great exploration.

In the face of an overseas world full of dangers, evil spirits, grotesques, dependents of the old gods, and even children of the old gods, only first-rate, or at least first-rate [navigators] with first-class potential, can be competent.

And if you can lead the entire human race to explore the unknown world, it will be an excellent opportunity for every [Navigator] to grow in strength.

He hopes that this crucial candidate can go to the end with their team to complete the complete exploration of the "Ekadena Triangle" and even travel around the world.

The lives of all the crew are at stake, and it is better to have a shortage than an abundance!

After thinking about it for a while, he set his sights on the Lighthouse Federation, a huge organization with many top-notch Lighthouse Sequence Transcendents.

In the end, the liaison who had served him several times was chosen, and Miss Delia, who was the most familiar.

Not only is he talented, he awakened on his own at the age of fifteen, and reached the limit of the second order at the age of only eighteen, but he also learned the corresponding forbidden knowledge "Divination", which can take the place of a prophet.

Double posts only require one salary, of course, it is very cost-effective.

Although there were a few minor side effects, it didn't hurt.

Of course, all of this is due to Byron's love for talent, and it has nothing to do with [Logbook] accidentally discovering that she has a father who is the vice president of the Lighthouse Federation.

It doesn't matter!

Byron wrote a reply casually, agreed with Delia on the boarding time, and after handing it over to the messenger, he did not forget the most important thing - feeding the seagulls.

"Hour fries?"

Take a bag of fries from the snakeskin pouch and hand it to it.

This 9526 doesn't like fish like his peers, but he has a soft spot for chips, and he is very happy every time he is fed, and he is very active when he works.

"On the whole. Mr. Councillor, as everyone says, you are a great person. ”

The seagull took the fries and put them in his satchel, but said with some regret:

"This may be the last time I send you a letter, though.

Some of our supernatural couriers will soon be sent to the Celestial Circulation to form a new mailing network.

Infrastructure construction for the follow-up major changes at sea.

If you look at another Lighthouse Weekly newspaper that will be published urgently tomorrow, you know that something big is about to happen here.

Goodbye, sir! ”

After saying that, he saluted again, flapped his wings and flew out.

"Big deal? Urgent add-on? ”

The premonition in Byron's heart grew stronger, and he opened the envelope with some eagerness, and Violet followed him to his side.

There was only one newspaper in it that had not yet been published.

He can receive first-hand information on the progress of the adventure team under the Hattings system.

However, the understanding of the progress of other countries, large forces, and private adventurers is far less than that of the Lighthouse Federation.

Once the federation encounters valuable information, it will also inform the internal members in advance, so that they can respond quickly.

Unfold the newspaper, and the blacked-out front page headline is:

"Shocked! The fifth-order pirate king, one of the strongest in the Bantaan Islands, [Throne of the Ocean] Barbarossa Hayreddin actually did such a thing?! ”

Byron:

Because he was afraid that Violet was around, he didn't let the beautiful lingua franca gush out.

But after scolding the eighth generation of the ancestors in his heart, he hurriedly continued to look down.

"Humanity is about to usher in a great extraordinary energy revolution"

"[Oceanic Throne] Barbarossa Hayreddin took the initiative to report a discovery that shocked the world to the Lighthouse Federation.

He claimed that a large concentration of Leviathan whales had been found in a certain area of water south of the 'celestial circulation', which was a natural and perfect whaling ground."

The reporter of the Lighthouse Federation urgently interviewed Mr. Thomas Severly, the president of the Mainland Craftsmen's Union and a fifth-order legendary master craftsman.

Mr. Sevelli confirmed that the whale oil in the Leviathan whale carried a high concentration of essentia.

It can be used as the finest fuel (boiling hot water), or as pure energy to drive spells, rituals, alchemy machines, and all kinds of forbidden knowledge, or to power heavy equipment.

This whale was first spotted by Melville, a whaler captain of the Monster Hunter class in the Wilderness Sequence, on the edge of the Equitena Triangle.

Unfortunately, the living environment of the Leviathan whale is too dangerous for humans, and the number of catches has been too small for decades.

Until now, because whaling ships cannot penetrate deep into the sea of monsters, it is difficult to form large-scale whale catching and whale oil production, let alone form related industries. ”

"The discovery of large whale farms in the southern hemisphere today is most likely something more valuable than spices to the entire human civilization.

Meaning renewable unlimited energy!

Enough to set off a whale oil power revolution"

"This news has been divined by a high-level fifth-order [prophet] and confirmed its authenticity.

Ladies and gentlemen, please rejoice in yet another great discovery of humanity's conquest of the unknown.

And of course, don't forget to get ready for a whaling ship that once again rivals the spice trade! ”

"In addition, it is said that some of the adventurers of the first and second echelons have responded to the call of the Pirate King and killed the coordinate land.

There should be news in the near future. ”

What was printed in the newspaper turned out to be the heart of the secret deal between the two pirate kings in the mouth of [blue-haired] Barbarossa Hairing - the whale oil power revolution!

"This"

After reading this newspaper, which will be published tomorrow, the mood of the two people is difficult to calm down for a long time.

They could fully imagine what kind of turbulent waves would be set off in the entire Bantaan Islands and even the Silver Continent after tomorrow.

There are many, many smart people in this world.

Not only Byron and Violet, but many people can see the value of whale oil, and a few well-informed activists may have already boarded the ship and set sail at this time.

If you can find a specialty that is more valuable than spices in the New World, distance, cost, loss, and danger will no longer be an obstacle.

Even the fireballs and sharp knives in the sky will definitely not stop the colonists from going forward and succeeding.

After tomorrow, no one will care about how the Crown War in the Native Territory is different from the past, and who the new god [Lord of Heaven] is.

Instead, they will once again plunge into the unknown ocean en masse, usher in death, or get rich!

"But why did [Ocean Throne] reveal the secrets of the whale oil power revolution at this juncture?"

Byron and Violet glanced at each other, and saw the look of doubt in each other's eyes.

Violet bit her cherry-colored lower lip and silently analyzed:

"It's been a long time since my father handed over this 'whale oil revolution' and the news of the whaling field to the [Throne of the Oceans], who is also the pirate king, with a broken chart.

For so many years, the pirate king has never revealed the news, but has left the cause of the pirate kingdom to his younger brother blue-haired Hairding, and has been quietly exploring with the sea monster army.

Obviously, it's the idea of eating alone. ”

Byron nodded in agreement:

"It's true that the whaling ground is there, and you can't run away at all.

As long as he monopolizes resources from the source, he can make all countries that are thirsty for whale oil, a new energy source, look up to him.

[Ocean Throne] was originally from the Star and Moon Empire on the west coast, and with whale oil firmly in his hand, he could turn into a big dog in this world, 'a piece of cloth on his head, the richest in the world'.

But now, the major adventure ships are approaching the new continent step by step, and every day there is new news coming back.

Why did he suddenly announce the news, and also attached a specific location that was one step closer to the original nautical chart, so that everyone else could get a piece of the pie.

It can't be a sudden discovery of conscience, right? ”

Analyzing this, the faces of the two people changed at the same time:

There is only one answer!

There was something tricky that even he couldn't figure out.

He was not announcing the good news to the whole world, but sending a shaking signal to all the sea powers, the adventure ships, and the colonists.

Although there are many words in the newspaper, if you look closely, it is clear that all the words are 'in danger, brothers give it to me'! ”
