Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 130 Princess Kyatri and the Mystery of Blood Sacrifice

The island of Tymanbrak was burned down by the pirates led by Byron.

The roots that were buried deep under the ruins and ashes had sprouted again in just less than ten days.

The entire dark island was once again covered with a layer of hazy green.

In particular, large tracts of eucalyptus trees not only rely on their thick bark to resist wildfires, but also use high temperatures to bake open the hard shells of their seeds.

After a rain, even lush and green saplings grew out.

If there are a few more wildfires, this place might just turn into an eucalyptus island.

Three armed merchant ships equipped with artillery and flying the "Blood and Gold" flag of the Kingdom of Castile were parked at the dock where even the wooden pier had been burned.

[Blood Red Whiskey] The information Alfred reported to Byron was not quite accurate.

This group of uninvited guests who forcefully invaded the Taiman Islands should be the Flayed Church, plus a large number of colonists from the Kingdom of Castile.

Just as Byron expected.

Even though Castile was powerful and confident of destroying the two empires, it still needed to establish a series of material transfer stations at the east-west border which became the front line.

Due to the special geographical location of the Taiman Islands, it naturally became a bridgehead.

It was only natural that it would attract the attention of the Kingdom of Castile and even cause territorial conflicts.

It's not just Castile. Even other kingdoms that want to join the carnival of national annihilation and get a piece of the pie may not want to get involved.

"Set up camp on the spot, clean up the original ruins and rubble, recycle all usable materials and build permanent warehouses and outposts."

"Yes. Team one, follow me to recycle building materials."

"Team Two, follow me to the little Taiman next door to cut wood."

"Team three."

The colonists, who clearly had a military style, had already begun to build a semi-permanent camp on the spot.

Instead, those conspicuous-looking members of the Flayed Church were wandering around the island.

"How's it going, Brown Bear? Can you still find the perpetrators who massacred this island and took away everything?"

A huge brown bear wiggled its huge nose, trying its best to capture the scent of the island.

In addition to its unstoppable violent power that no one below the mid-sequence can stop, this creature also possesses an extraordinary ability called [Scent Map].

It can accurately identify various smells to form a map and accurately lock on the smallest suspicious targets.

Unfortunately, no matter how good your sense of smell is, it is useless.

The bear shook its head vigorously and spoke in human language:

“I can’t smell it anymore.

Not even a single spirit was left behind, which is very consistent with the characteristics of an evil spirit committing a crime.

Anyway, we just took the survey mission from the Governor's Office, and there is no profit to be made.

When you write the investigation report later, how about just writing that all the island residents committed suicide due to the influence of evil spirits?"

The restorative power of nature, coupled with the visits of several groups of pirates, had completely wiped out the few traces that were left to begin with.

Even if Byron did not have the entry [You are not the murderer] to help, they could not help but suspect that the original Castilian pioneers on the island really died of suicide.

"Well, it's settled then.

The sect's primary target now is the two indigenous empires, and it has no time to dwell on the details of the island.

After we help the Navy Department clear the obstacles for setting up a transit station, we will immediately rush to Yucatan Island to carry out the lurking mission.

Just make sure there are no unexpected factors that could get in our way.”

A huge frog, stronger than a calf, suddenly flicked out its long tongue, swallowed a seagull that flew over its head, and smacked its lips in agreement.

It can be seen that most of the dozen or so members of the Flayed Church have strange shapes.

Brown bears, frogs, horned eagles, mice, beavers. Of course there are also people, some outsiders and some indigenous people, but they all speak a fluent common language.

The Flayed Church, a secret organization similar to the Bloodthirsty Cult whose purpose is to pursue forbidden knowledge, certainly will not act as ostentatiously as those pirate groups.

Apart from the secret sect's emblem, there is no flag of any kind to indicate identity.

If they act alone, it is indeed difficult to distinguish their identities, but if they gather together, there are too many discordant and weird elements.

The reason why [Bloody Whiskey] can make an accurate judgment of the other party's identity is entirely based on the experience of dealing with them for a long time, and can see the distinctive features at a glance.

——Beasts are holding a meeting.

Moreover, he also reminded Byron that when he was hostile to these people, he must remember that what he saw was probably not what they really looked like.

This group of cultists who call themselves "Skin-cloaked People" and "Skin-cloaked Visitors" possess a forbidden book called "Ritual of a Thousand Faces".

Using an obsidian dagger engraved with spells, by completing a skinning ritual for a specific target, you can peel off a piece of skin that is still full of life.

And retain the other person's personality, soul and extraordinary abilities intact.

As long as you put the skin on your body, you can gain the opponent's power completely.

The objects of skinning can be various animals, monsters, and of course humans!
It can replace a creature's identity in a population without anyone noticing.

Even if a higher-ranking transcendent is not paying attention, he may be easily fooled.

The higher the rank of the skin man, the more skins and identities he can control.

side effect:
"The true form is like a unique name, it is more likely to become the target of curses, and the resistance is extremely poor.

Therefore, one must always hide one's true self under another skin.

In addition, low-level extraordinary people cannot wear the skin of high-level extraordinary people, otherwise they may be quickly replaced by the other party's spirit and personality, and resurrected in their body."

call--!
At this time, an eagle suddenly fell from the sky and landed among a group of people, animals and beasts.

But he took the lead and bowed to a very young indigenous girl:
“Ms. Beatrice, we have already found out that the Great Taiman Island next door is indeed the Earldom of Greenville of the Kingdom of Hattings.

But it's different from the information we got at the beginning.

In that territory, besides the famous Countess [Flower of the North], there is also a team of lobster soldiers from the army in training.

There was also a privateering fleet of Bill, the Executioner, one of the seven pirate generals just appointed by the Hastings Admiralty. He had at least five ships, all equipped with brand new military artillery, and his strength was not weak.

It is obvious that the relationship with the royal colony of Jamestown, the local Newman family and the local garrison is very good, otherwise these things cannot be bought with money alone.

I think he is most likely a confidant of the Kingdom of Hastings, planning to use him as a springboard to attack the indigenous empire.

Are we still going to attack them as planned?"

The girl called "Ms. Beatrice" has delicate features, a tall figure, and wheat-colored skin with a soft satin-like luster.

She wore turquoise earrings in the shape of feathered serpents on her ears, and her pair of light golden eyes naturally revealed a sharp and noble temperament.

According to normal people's aesthetic standards, it is so stunningly beautiful that it transcends ethnicity and national boundaries.

Almost on par with the level of Catherine and Violet.

Hearing the eagle's words, the native girl's eyes became sharp, and she coldly corrected his address to her:

"Now you have to call me Her Royal Highness Princess Kayatri.

No matter how high your own extraordinary level is, only by playing the identity of the new skin for a period of time can you perfectly integrate it.

I am very pleased with this beautiful skin, and if anything goes wrong because of you, I will skin you alive!"

The powerful aura that only belonged to a third-level transcendent emanated from the girl, making all the skin-covered people silent in fear.

The eagle facing her fell directly to the ground, apologizing repeatedly:

"I'm sorry, Princess Kyatri. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

They all knew that the woman in front of them had a legendary title of over 20 [Versatile Enchantress], and she especially liked to collect all kinds of beauties.

Seeing his upright attitude, the native girl put away her momentum, glanced in the direction of Dataiman Island, and snorted coldly:
"Pirate General? Oh, what a big mouth!
This sea belongs only to Castile. The other countries, such as the Hastings, the Irises, the Netherlands, and the Rhine Alliance, are just a group of hyenas who want to share the carrion of their prey.

Once we have taken down both empires in one fell swoop through the blood sacrifice of the Azik people to the [Flayed Lord], we will drive them all out of Bantaan.

As for now?

Since this pirate general has close ties with the Hastings officials, let's not create any unnecessary trouble for now.

When conquering the two empires, the power of these hyenas is worth utilizing.

Give orders to send a diplomatic note to the earldom in the name of the Kingdom's Admiralty. I believe they will not dare to refuse."

Castile used the vast amount of [Holy Relics] in his hands to be the first to find the Bantaan Islands, where honey and milk flowed.

All the nations of the Old World coveted their gold and silver earnings and their precious spices.

Naturally, they tried every means to bypass this middleman who was eating the natives and taking advantage of them.

However, as more and more ships from various countries arrived in Bantaan, it caused serious dissatisfaction among the high-ranking officials of the Castile colony.

The game between countries is one link after another.

While other countries are still thinking about following Castile to get a piece of the pie.

They are ready to implement a comprehensive blockade and embargo on the first circulation zone. Local development is allowed, but any merchant ships found transporting prohibited goods will be confiscated.

Not far from them, behind a thick eucalyptus tree that was not burned to death, a blurry figure that blended into the bark breathed a sigh of relief:

“Yes, I am a professional confidant.

To make a living in this world, you need to have wide connections and be well-connected. All the potential influence on the island comes from the care and love of the "bosses".

The leader who was in charge of the affairs was quite sensible.

At this critical moment when a big war is about to begin, it would be really meaningless to fight with others for no reason, and then when the younger ones are defeated, the older ones will come.

Yes, the 'little one' refers to me."

It was Byron who was hiding here.

After drinking a cup of [Blood Brew Chameleon]:
Use transmuted blood, pomegranate syrup, green mint liqueur, violet wine, white mint liqueur, blue orange liqueur, and brandy, a total of seven ingredients to make a glass of rainbow wine.

The modulation difficulty is not low, and the prerequisite requirements are met only after being promoted to the second level.

Adding [Cognitive Correction] gives me a double layer of insurance.

Since he discovered that there was a group of uninvited guests, he of course had to come and check out the situation in person before deciding whether to fight or make peace.

The result is pretty good, and it once again proves the correctness of the saying: "There is not only fighting and killing on the sea, but also human relationships and worldly wisdom."

And when he heard them inadvertently say "Use Azik's blood sacrifice to the Lord of the Skinner to take down the two empires in one fell swoop."

Another secret finally emerged in the logbook: [The mystery of the blood sacrifice of the Azik Empire, historical influence 27, decipherability 6%].

Before sneaking in here, Byron had received the Swift Eagle released by Wyandot.

I learned a series of inside information that even the top management of Hastings didn't know.

The Azik Empire made an unusual sacrifice to the Lord of Skinning; the overwhelmed city-states formed an anti-Azik alliance; the fuse of war between the two empires has been lit
Of course there is also the beautiful skinned princess Kyatri!

“There is no doubt that the Flayed Order, which chose to cooperate with Castile, played a key role in the great storm that swept across Bantaan.

I just wonder what Wyandotte would feel if he saw the object of his current affection."

Byron had just sighed in his heart when he heard the "Princess Kyatri" continue with a little regret:

"It's a pity that this war can't be fought, and I can't immediately possess the beautiful skin of Catherine, the Flower of the North.

But it's only a matter of time.

As soon as this battle is over, I will return and capture this famous beauty.

By the way, she can also use her identity to experience the feeling of being the Countess and being the center of attention.

I’m looking forward to it. I’m really looking forward to it! ”

As I said this, I suddenly heard a crisp creaking sound from behind a eucalyptus tree.

"Who is it? Come out!"

He stretched out his hand and swung it, and a whistling wind blade suddenly slashed over.
