Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 152 We Will Never Be Happy Again

At this time, after a whole day of unexpected bombings, the Azik Royal City had quietly come to evening.

The blood-stained sun gradually sank below the lake, painting the entire sky a dazzling blood red.

Even the magnificent golden city was tinged with ominous hues.

The colonists, pirates, and marines from various countries who were still wreaking havoc in the city did not notice this anomaly at all.

Even if I noticed it, I didn't take it to heart.

"Hahahaha, I've already had smallpox, and there's nothing in this city that can stop me from getting rich."

"I have to go through it too."

“Although I have never won, I am more afraid of being poor than dying!

Even if I die in that pile of gold today, my life will be worth it."

Just like a group of mice getting into a rice jar, it seems that there is really nothing that can stop them.

In this land that is already rich in gold and silver, how rich would an imperial capital that rules over hundreds of city-states and has a population of tens of millions be?
Even the most ordinary of the colonists had his pockets filled with all kinds of pure gold utensils and ornaments.

As for silver? They couldn't even hold the gold. In their eyes, silver had become a burden.

"Money speaks, truth is silent."

The motto of the Jin Yuan sequence became everyone's belief at this moment.

As long as I have money, I can do whatever I want.

The boundless wealth also aroused boundless desires in their hearts.

Especially when a group of colonists stormed into a temple along the Avenue of Death.

We saw "Tequila", a fine wine made from corn, palm and agave, which was specially offered to the gods, as well as various carefully prepared delicacies.

My stomach, which had been hungry for almost a day, immediately began to rebel.

It finally reminded them that eating seemed to be just as important as those lovely golden things.

A Castilian colonist swallowed his saliva, grabbed a pot of wine that belonged to God and drank it himself.

"puff!"

But the tequila had just entered his throat when he spat it out again.

"Is this wine? Why doesn't it taste like anything?"

Not quite believing that the wine offered to the gods was inferior, he carefully took another sip, but it still had no taste.

Moreover, after the wine went down his throat, not only did it not quench his thirst, but the more he drank, the thirstier he became. It was completely unable to satisfy his strong desire for fine wine.

"Something's wrong. This meat, too. It tastes like sand."

The meat and fruits eaten by other companions next to me were all the same. They felt like rough sand in my mouth and were difficult to swallow.

Even if I forced myself to eat, I felt hungrier and hungrier, with no sense of satisfaction at all.

Deeper in the temple, another second-level transcendent captured a female priest who had survived and had not been exposed to the source of infection.

Even though she was immediately possessed by the [Tiger Spirit] and grew tiger ears and a tiger tail, she was still forcibly subdued by the man.

When this extraordinary being took off the dazzling gold ornaments on her body, he also ripped open her collar, revealing a large area of ​​wheat-colored skin as smooth as satin.

Combined with the strange tiger ears and tiger tail, that kind of strange charm immediately made his blood boil.

He laughed and untied his belt.

"Beauty, the Azik people are going to be extinct. Let me help you continue your race."

Just as he was about to rush forward, his body suddenly froze.

Until the priestess screamed, pushed him away, grabbed her clothes and ran out.

The man still seemed to have not reacted, staring blankly between his legs, his face changing from disbelief to shame and anger, and finally turning pale.

"No! That's not true. My life has no meaning anymore."

The same thing is happening all over the city.

Just in a flash.

Fine wine cannot satisfy their needs, delicious food turns to dust in their throats, and beautiful opposite sex cannot release their desires.

They were terribly thirsty, but no amount of wine or spring water could quench their thirst.

They were starving, but no amount of delicious food could fill their stomachs.

The beauty's smooth skin is also completely insulated from them.

Fine wine, delicious food, sweet springs, beautiful women, and even the fragrance of flowers on the roadside. They can no longer feel any happiness in the world.

The panic and riots from the unknown, like another spiritual plague, began to spread rapidly in the city.

A falcon circled the city, nodded with satisfaction, and then quickly disappeared into the rainforest.

Moreover, the [Cursed Gold Coin of Azik] released by Byron is just the beginning.

Over Lake Texcoco, there was intense resentment against outsiders, and mass deaths of Azca in the cities of Tenochtitlan, Texcoco, and Tlacopan.

Finally, another terrifying monster that is no less terrifying than the [Bird-beaked Plague Doctor] has been awakened!

At the same time, on the west shore of Lake Texcoco.

The focus of the Hastings and the Bloodthirsty Cult is different from those who only have gold in their eyes.

"Am I seeing things right? It seems that the opponent of [Conqueror] Cortes is [Wild Hunt]?
The Wild Hunt, who caused the "Natural Scourge" to go out of control and destroyed a strait fleet of the Kingdom, has also come to Bantaan!"

The deterrent effect brought by 25 points of legendary status was immediate, and the voice of [Insect Swarm] seemed a little dry.

"No doubt, that person is the Wild Hunt! His image is exactly the same as the [Soul Profile] drawn by the Palace Sequence Painter.

But why did he look like a native after he took off his armor?
Just now, it transformed into an eagle and took away the largest amount of gold near the temple using a storage item."

Major General Newman beside him also had a very gloomy expression:
"Our informant among the Castilians has just sent a message.

Cortes fooled everyone!

At first, all the major powers in the Bantaan Islands thought that he just wanted to break the center of Azik and make the empire collapse into pieces.

It is convenient for everyone to start a feast of sharing.

Unexpectedly, he also colluded with the Queen of the Azik people and helped the Azik Emperor successfully create a [Golden Code], and finally successfully seized the fruits of victory.

He even released a terrifying monster to use an unprecedented plague to wipe out most of the natives and crown himself king. I guess even the top leaders of the Kingdom of Castile don't know his true ambitions, or the existence of the [Golden Code].

And that [Wild Hunt] seemed to be disguised as Cortes' follower at the beginning, but suddenly took action at the critical moment and became the final winner.

Damn it! Even if Cortes wins, he shouldn't win! "

They looked at each other and felt a sense of empathy.

Both men knew what their group had done.

Provide the York family with the "Touch of the Kraken", first destroy Lancaster, and then attack Anchor Bay.

Rumor has it that the last demon-son of Lancaster was given the protection of the Wild Hunt.

Faced with this famous killing god who had done many great things, how could they not be afraid even if they seemed to be of the same level?
"Oh, right, because the Old World celebrates the Feast of the Nativity at the end of the year, sailors won't travel far.

The only fleet that had recently arrived from the Old World to the Bantaan Islands was the Hattings Ocean Fleet, which arrived before the Feast of the Lord.

It is impossible for a mere third-level warrior to cross the first circulation belt and reach Bantaan alone. He must have come with the large fleet.

As the commander of the fleet, I didn't realize there was such a dangerous guy hiding in the team."

Major General Newman suddenly understood the whole story and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

If the Wild Hunt had secretly assassinated him, he would never have been able to reach the Bantaan Islands alive.

Suddenly he turned his head and looked at the group of pirates behind him. Most of them were from the ocean-going fleet.

Mouth murmured:

"Yes, except for the people who are now under my nose, the remaining passengers must all undergo a strict inspection.

We must uncover the Wild Hunt's true identity.

Even the [Son of the Devil] followed him in disguise. If he could find the Wild Hunt, there would be no problem in finding the last Lancaster.

If we don’t eradicate this last descendant of the royal family, not to mention York of the White Rose, even we vassals will have trouble sleeping and eating.”

“Oh, and the church.

The Inquisition would certainly be interested in this Wild Hunt who stood on the side of the Bay People.

Let those correction priests, judge knights, and the powerful mercenaries under the empire [Doppler Swordsmen] come and kill him. "

Byron had just made arrangements with [Falcon] Alvin, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he heard [Swarm] and Major General Newman discussing him.

It even eliminated the only correct option first.

Faced with the subsequent pursuit, he chose to cling more closely to the Bloodthirsty Cult and Major General Newman!

As soon as Major General Newman finished speaking, Byron stepped forward and echoed indignantly:

"Mr. Swarm, General, if it weren't for the Wild Hunt, Captain Edward Redbeard, who possessed an immortal body, would not have failed.

We will not make a desperate escape from Anchor Bay.

But don't worry. We will never run away again this time. Anyone who wants to harm you two will have to step over my dead body.

Are you right? "

As he said this, he looked at the other pirate generals.

But except for Bruch, who was wearing a shaman mask and disguised as Bill, who nodded in agreement, everyone else was silent.

A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. Don't they know whether the Wild Hunt is fierce or not?

Maybe that guy is watching nearby.

If you show your loyalty too much, who can you complain to if someone touches your head at night?

Such a comparison makes the team of Pirate General Bill and his deputy Byron more loyal and commendable.

The [Insect Swarm], which has become a different species, also feels a sense of warmth in its heart.

"Unlike that rebellious Wild Hunt who is against us everywhere, Bill and Byron are indeed loyal people."

They are not just talking.

The Battle of Anchor Bay, the active hunting of sea monsters on the way, and Byron's counter-charge against the [Shaman Mask] all proved this point.

Major General Newman also nodded and thought:

“Byron brought me three methods of artificially cultivating spices, which are three inexhaustible sources of gold and silver.

If I plant trees for three, five, even eight or ten years, it will be enough for my descendants to become rich.

The most powerful [Hook] died unexpectedly, and the two of them actually quietly swallowed up the privateering fleet. I was planning to give them a little warning.

This is completely inconsistent with the rules and expectations set by the Navy Department.

But now it seems that giving this team to them is far more reassuring than leaving it in the hands of others.

Even if there is a vacant pirate general position, I can make some arrangements and let Byron take over. "

Geronimo, the captain of the Chichen Itza temple guard standing nearby, didn't understand what they meant by the Wild Hunt.

However, he saw the severity of the strange plague from the Azik people and the anti-Azik alliance in the royal city.

I couldn't help but feel grateful to Bill and Byron.

If they hadn't convinced the city-state's top leaders, they would not have joined forces with those evil Castilians.

Now, the victims infected with smallpox who fell into the royal city also include the city of Chichen Itza.

“General, now that the plague-spreading monster and the Wild Hunt are gone, the Castilians are leaderless.

Let’s hurry up and grab the gold in the royal city.

I just saw some people from smaller forces grab a large amount of money and immediately evacuated the royal city.

If we don’t take action now, we won’t even be able to drink soup.”

At this time, [Slitthroat] and his men ran over, dragging a bunch of wooden boats belonging to the city of Tlacopan.

Not only him, but all the other pirates were looking eagerly at Major General Newman and the Zerg who were in the lead.

"Then we will."

Before Major General Newman, who also had the same intention, could finish his words.

Da da da.
Behind the Hattings expeditionary force, the sound of heavy horse hooves suddenly rang out, and then everyone's nostrils were filled with the smell of blood and rotten flesh.
