The "bridgehead" marked on the nautical chart is located at the northernmost point of all the islands affiliated with the Church of Deep Diving, and it is also the first stop in the New World after crossing the "Serpent of the World: Celestial Circulation" under normal circumstances.

Although the soil is a little too barren to grow much food, the island has a well-deserved role as a "bridgehead".

The West Coast Pirate King [Throne of the Ocean] Barbarossa Hayreddin calls on all adventurers to gather here, and it is very reasonable.

At the junction of heaven and sea, the remnant sun is like blood, pulling out a large long reflection of the jungle-like dense masts in the anchorage on the edge of the island.

In just one day, in addition to the main fleet of Barbary pirates, there are hundreds of adventure ships that have come here.

Moreover, if you turn on the spiritual vision and look at the past, most of the adventure ships that have come here are shining with clear spiritual light, and all of them are strange warships that are rarely seen in other places.

Even if the battleship is ordinary, there must be a sea monster lurking underwater, which will never lose to a strange warship.

And a "monster" surrounded by them in the middle, which is extremely large, and is already very close to the size of a second-class ship, stands out from the crowd.

It was none other than the flagship of the Fifth Order Pirate King's Ocean Throne, the [Deep Sea Hades].

But everyone knew that this seemingly invincible pirate ship was just an ordinary means of transportation for Hayreddin.

The giant sea monster he raised to defeat at least the same level as a first-class ship was the real [Deep Sea Hades]!

Boom! Boom!

At sunset, the two adventure ships, the Jackdaw and the Ironclad, were led by a dock navigator and docked at the anchorage in the bay.

With Violet, a third-order master craftsman, repairing the damaged rudder of the Iron Clamp was just a snap of a finger.

However, the [Golden Deer], one of the original three strange warships, was missing, and none of the pirate officers under Byron's command came.

The two captains, Hawkeye James and Jefferson the Beast Tamer, each met on the dock with their henchmen and nodded to each other:

"Captain James."

"Captain Jefferson."

The two brothers and sisters, who were almost eaten by the cultists, had a much more hairy body than when they were on Kuroshio Island.

There seemed to be a slight glow of green in his eyes, the same as that of the blue-haired Barbarossa Hairing.

Obviously, they have all been impressed by the "noble sentiments" of Mr. Byron, the Sea Hunter, and willingly bowed down at his feet, and by the way, they also accepted a witchcraft transformation of "Bloodborne".

The latter is a coyote, and the former is a jackal.

James originally learned the "Voodoo Ritual on the ship", and also used his mission objectives to cultivate a batch of resurrection corpses, but because he couldn't eat them at all, he had already been disposed of by the gods.

The crew was also seriously short of personnel after being eaten up, which caused the strength of the entire ship to plummet, and they could only find a way to work themselves for a while.

Byron's black witchcraft is undoubtedly the best option at the moment.

However, Jefferson's small sea monster [Iron Spear Shrimp] dragged into the deep sea by the Son of God and the Goddess was nothing serious, and after the battle, they retrieved it from a bottle that had been inflicted on black magic.

The combat effectiveness remained relatively intact.

"This is the bridgehead? It doesn't seem as terrifying as Lord Sea Hunter says."

Standing on the old dock, which was clearly hastily repaired, and looking at the island's mix of old and new buildings, both of them couldn't help but wonder.

Byron, who didn't come here in person, silently used [Servant Synaesthesia] to use the vision of the two of them to observe the island, and felt the same way.

Obviously, as an ancestral "offshore balancer", how could he rashly bet and risk his life when the situation was still uncertain?

The main body, still hidden on the Golden Deer, took out the logbook of the crazy clown Koraskin, which reads:

"The Oblivion of the Snail (crossed out) Silver Age, January 8, 1472.

Quack, we searched for half a month according to the nautical chart, and just as we were about to give up, an inexplicable ocean current took us to our destination.

That must be the guidance of the great being in my ears.

It is a human relic located on an isolated island.

Yes, the bridgehead was damp and cold, half of the buildings were soaked in water, and there were huge calcified scales everywhere (crossed out), but that must have belonged to humans.

I know it's all normal, it's very normal, and that's how human beings should live.

My gut tells me that this is probably not far from the new continent that everyone is looking for."

In a small town on Bridgehead Island, which is not much bigger than Kuroshio Town, half of the buildings are indeed soaked in water, half on land, and the huge scales are not visible, as if they have been cleaned by man.

In the part that was not soaked in water, many additional wooden buildings were built, and it seems that even inns, taverns, and wandering warblers were built.

Hang a huge luminous sign for fear that others will not see it.

Flowers and plants will grow towards the sun, people will always move closer to profits, and wherever there is profit, there must be businessmen.

Soon, piracy, which was dependent on trade routes, would also be in full swing.

This is the natural rule of the socio-ecological chain, which has been maintained for thousands of years and will continue to be maintained.

A few Remit people who were covered in jewels and were obviously gold yuan sequences were coming in and out, and it was clear that this was their industry.

Byron can see business opportunities in the New World and new routes, and establish a transit service station on the Great Bear Islands, and these guys with a keen sense of money can naturally do it.

One is nothing more than business when you come, and the other is business when you return.

"But these people are really not afraid to die for money? Or has the anomaly on this island actually been resolved by the Pirate King?"

After Byron had subdued the goddess Freya, he had learned a little bit about the island.

The Families of the Deep Sea all know that their ancestors experienced a "collective ascension" on the bridgehead before they were able to transform into a family serving the Sleeping God.

But few people know that although they are all called "ascension" rituals, the essence of them is very different.

The overall ascension of the bridgehead is a ritual performed with the cursed object [Luo Annihilation City Text], imitating the Luo Annihilation City, which is half on land and half in water, half in reality and half in dreams, and turns itself upside down.

Half of it flipped to the Sea of Essentia, and was replaced by the mirrored islands of the Sea of Essentia.

All the exiles of the Bay People also completed their fall towards the "beastly side" and embraced the Oblivion City Sect to achieve bloodline sublimation.

The [Golden Ghost Card] obtained by Kraskin from the Frolicking Clown is most likely also taking advantage of that opportunity to come to the material world from the Sea of Ingena.

Even if Byron's body was not here, he could vaguely sense that there was a crack in the world on the island that was not low-level, and it had not been sealed or bridged.

The danger remains.

It's a pity that the age of the god son and the god girl is actually not very old, and they can reach the fourth order at a young age, purely because they are good, and they are strictly forbidden by Dagon to approach this island, and they don't know much about the inside story.

Fortunately, before he and the two adventurous captains could ponder for too long and make up their minds whether to advance or retreat, someone took the initiative to solve their doubts:

"Welcome to Bridgehead Harbor, the two captains are worthy of being the first elite adventurers to reach the New World, and do you see the strangeness of this island?"

Byron looked back from the perspective of the two of them, and couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the figure of the person who came.

In this place 108,000 miles away from his hometown, he met an old acquaintance again.

- The Golden Eye Michael, a female businesswoman who first sold Bruch to him, and then called friends to buy real estate in the International Port, and opened an online store in the financial fund to invest in the stock market.

After hugging Byron's thighs, because of the good eyesight of people, already

Successfully promoted to the second rank.

Unexpectedly, he was the vanguard of the Palme d'Or trading company in developing business in the new continent.

Byron subconsciously felt that the presence of this old leek that had been raised for a long time might be a good sign.

Of course, Michael didn't know that there were old acquaintances whose eyes fell here, and he took care of himself with the enthusiasm of a businessman, revealing a big iconic gold tooth to introduce the two captains:

"Two captains, according to the pirate king's [Oceanic Throne]'s staff.

There is indeed a second-level world rift here that allows for the grotesque entry and exit of the middle sequence, and it has formed a very dangerous secret realm for hundreds of years.

Even a fourth-order hero-level transcendent would be at great risk of straying into it."

Seeing the slight change in the faces of the two, Michael reached out and pointed to the round of blood-colored crescent that had just emerged above his head, and continued to explain to them:

"The naturalists who accompanied the ship had come up with the first taboo of the New World:

'essentia tides vary with the phases of the blood moon, and the larger and rounder the moon, the stronger the tides. "

Every month, when the moon is at its fullest, it even pours the waters of the Sea of Inentia into the New World along the rifts in the world here.

To use an analogy, if our world were a partially flooded sailboat, the water level in the New World would be higher than in the Bantaan Islands and the Old World.

Many places have even been soaked in water all year round.

This is free information that His Excellency the Pirate King has released to you as a sign of sincerity."

After a little pain in his heart that the disclosure of information could not be used to make money, he continued:

"As for the secret realm here, it is similar to the trap 'trap door' that is common in labyrinths."

It flips as soon as you step on it.

Fortunately, only when the moon is at its fullest for more than half a month, the tide level is high enough that there is a risk of turning inside and out, and it will not be triggered under normal circumstances.

The three days at the end of the month and the third day at the beginning of the month are the safest times, and even if you step on it directly, there will be no accidents.

Luckily, you came early, and if you come two days late, as the 'trapdoor' on the island gradually flips over, you may just step on the air and fall directly into the forbidden area of life in the Sea of Ingena."

Hearing Michael's explanation, Byron and the two captains understood.

When the [Bone-eating Clown] arrived on the island on January 8th, he was very lucky to just go crazy, and if he arrived at the station on a bad day, I am afraid that he would fall out of this world directly.

At the same time, they also understood why the [Ocean Throne] was so anxious, and they did not hesitate to disclose the information about the whaling field to gather people from the Bantaan Islands and other forces at full speed.

Because it is now the end of June, there are still three days to go before the final safety deadline.

Once the time limit has passed, it is a big deal for them to change places and continue ***.

However, with the opening of the "trapdoor" on the island, it will affect the nearby seas, which will completely block the only route at present, making it impossible for latecomers to pass for a short time.

At this time, using teleportation abilities such as [Deep Sea Jump] within the New World will also be extremely risky, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the Sea of Essena.

It won't be until the end of next July that another window will be ushered in.

During this time, they were alone.

Not only must he save himself in the New World, but he must also strive to pull out the nails that stand in the way of the rich and noble under the leadership of the Pirate King, and open the last stop of this whale oil route.

"But don't worry, it's just a back road.

As long as the Pirate King is here, the New World is within reach for us.

The main reason for convening everyone here is to discuss the distribution of benefits, and the big people eat meat, and it's good for us to drink soup with them."

Apparently unaware of the true nature of the New World, Michael thought that no one could stop the Castilian from entering the Bantaan Islands, just as the Castilian had just arrived in the Bantaan Islands.

I don't know here though

It is also mainly indigenous, but there is also another "gun hunter" who is eyeing it.

And it is possible that the guns in their hands are more advanced than them.

Byron and James and his entourage have seen the "stealing ability" and hidden power of those clans, but they are not as optimistic as other adventurers who think that the Pirate King [Ocean Throne] is simply bringing everyone to make a fortune.

There is still an extremely difficult battle ahead of us.

"The Bantaan Islands alone span 3,000 kilometres, and the first and second echelons have chosen very different routes to explore the Broken Isles.

In order to avoid conflicts, the fifth-order legendary adventurers divided their territories and scattered them throughout the Broken Isles.

How can it be so easy to gather in a short period of time?

Today is only the fourth day of the Pirate King's message, and even if it is three days later, a total of seven days, there will not be too many adventurers who can gather here.

Don't wait for those fifth-order legends to arrive, and these people alone can take down the Deep Dive Church, the legendary warships in their hands, and the two Old Mystical Realms?"

Only if the human side is strong enough, or at least roughly balanced with the enemy, can Byron have a chance to fish in troubled waters and fish out of the city of Oblivion.

Now it doesn't seem to be safe.

But the Pirate King's plan could not have gone wrong, and he deliberately caused this situation.

"Look, does this pirate king want to gather cannon fodder and not want to share meat with other hungry wolves?

If you don't even have a safety valve, aren't you afraid that you will lose yourself if you get away with it?"

Byron's thought had only just risen.

To the north of the port, near the direction of the "Celestial Circulation", another huge warship suddenly broke out of the milky white fog and crashed into everyone's eyes.

Due to the self-sustaining power of battleships, there is a high probability that there will be no battleships of the third level and above in the ocean range.

However, the specially modified Strange Object Battleship is clearly not among them.

Byron's pupils shrank when he saw an iconic glass bottle emblem painted on the sails:

"This is the quasi-legendary battleship [Phantom in a Bottle] of the legendary master [Sailing Collector] Morton Gray!

There's another fifth-order?"

This sail battleship, comparable to a second-class ship, rushed at great speed, aiming directly at the flagship of the Ocean Throne [Deep Sea Hades].

The pirates on the flagship are facing the enemy.

Just as the two sides were about to collide, the Phantom in a Bottle suddenly disappeared into the waves like a phantom.

But Byron knew that the famous battleship had not disappeared, but had suddenly shrunk to the size of a wine bottle.
