Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 229: The Greedy Live, the Contented Die
Even though Byron and Violet no longer considered the gold and silver on the island as their goal.

But seeing the "eye-catching" sight before their eyes, they no longer cared about camping and both came to the orchard.

The two pairs of identical azure eyes were gradually dyed golden by the brilliant golden light.

The coins that appeared in the outer layer of rainforest were mainly silver coins, but when they got here, they were suddenly upgraded to gold!

If Catherine came here, she would probably go crazy on the spot.

Even with the murderous rule hanging over your head like the sword of Damocles, it is possible to hold on to those apple trees.

Although the vast majority of them only have golden leaf veins, only a few have transformed their essence into pure gold.

Byron raised his hand, and the strong wind swept two heavy golden apples and more leaves with golden veins into their hands.

I couldn't help but stroke the fruit in my hand that exuded a charming luster, and couldn't help but sigh again:

“Even in this huge apple orchard, only a few of the apple trees had their leaves and fruits transformed into real gold.

This is undoubtedly an incredible and astonishing fortune.

It would just take a lot of time to search carefully in this orchard that probably has hundreds of thousands of apple trees.

No one would refuse this kind of "hard work".

Even if we are rich, if we don’t know the weight load rules, we will probably have to turn back with our gold after we get here.”

Faced with so much gold, who in this world can remain unmoved?

Even if those high-sequence transcendents seem aloof on the surface, it is only because the price to impress them is not high enough.

Violet shook her head.
“Unfortunately, although there is a lot of gold and silver on Treasure Island, there are only a few that can be taken away.

As more and more people come to the island, this Golden Apple Orchard will probably live up to its name sooner or later, and all the apple trees will turn completely into gold."

I could hear the gold diggers under my feet still squeaking.

They threw the heavy golden apples on the ground and walked forward a few steps.

I found that on many trees in the orchard, in addition to bearing shiny golden apples, there were also many colorful and luxurious clothes growing.

The corresponding story paragraph of the Kingdom of Siralafuya is:

“The leaves on the tree are all gold or silver coins. If you want them, just knock them down with a stick.

What's even more strange is that all kinds of clothes grow on various unnamed trees in the big forest.

There are waistcoats, skirts, dresses, blouses, coats, capes, trousers, all kinds of styles and colors. "

Silk, ribbons, lace, fur, crystal high heels, gorgeous dresses woven with gold thread and gems, there is absolutely nothing you can't find.

Moreover, the cuts and styles of these clothes are so exquisite that they seem as if they were not made by human hands but by the beautiful natural creation.

Among them are many priceless purple clothes.

You know, the craftsmen in the world today have not overcome the technical difficulties of purple dye. All purple dyes come from a special kind of snail.

Only tiny glands in their bodies contain trace amounts of "Muxue Purple".

It takes about 10000 murex to extract 1 gram of purple dye. This gorgeous color, also known as royal purple, is naturally extremely precious.

A mere sum of gold cannot compare to it.

Even spices pale in comparison to it.

In the upper class society outside, not to mention a whole purple dress, even a ribbon or even a purple pattern on the clothes can make the owner of the clothes instantly become the focus of the whole audience.

Even the king might look upon you differently.

Violet's eyes couldn't help but change from blue to gold, and then from gold to purple, and her breathing became slightly heavy.

"Beautiful, so beautiful!"

Clearly, the island is designed to appeal to the desires of treasure hunters.

Gold, silver, fine wine, delicious food, beautiful women, and beautiful clothes. Since a person comes to look for treasure, there will always be a weakness in his heart that can be exploited.

When deploying their troops on the treasure hunt, there will always be a time when they can no longer control themselves.

Everyone loves beauty, let alone a stunningly beautiful girl like Violet?
The most important thing is, if there is no audience, it would be fine. No matter how beautiful the clothes are, you are not wearing them for yourself.

But here was Byron.

The idea that "women dress up to please themselves" took root once it appeared, and the desire to dress up well gradually became so strong that it was difficult to control.

"They are all so beautiful. I want this one and that one too. I want them all."

Those who have a girlfriend know that there is always one piece of clothing missing in a woman’s wardrobe, and that is... the next one!
The girl couldn't help but take a step forward and reached out to touch a gorgeous dress hanging on the tree.

The off-shoulder, open-back design, and a big purple bow tied around the waist, are both charming and cute, making people's hearts flutter. Byron was about to speak to stop him.

But the purple dress suddenly faded the moment Violet touched it, and then the girl turned around and gave him a playful smile.

Then he gently wiped his hand on his clothes.

He snapped his fingers with a "Snap!"

There was a flash of alchemical light, and her clothes instantly became exactly the same as the dress on the tree.

The only difference was that the precious purple color was transferred from the tree to her body.

Under the moonlight, the pretty girl with a perfect figure is breathtakingly beautiful.

She lifted her skirt, turned around in front of Byron, and tilted her head:

"Does it look good?"

Byron silently raised his left thumb and made a six with his right hand:

"Great! And...six six six!"

The core ability of [Craftsman] at the third level is [Alchemy]. It is difficult to bypass the principle of "equivalent exchange" when the material changes.

Purple pigment cannot be created out of thin air.

But if it is just a physical change, it is as simple as eating and drinking.

It is even easier for a master craftsman to change the shape of the clothes on his body at will.

The purple dye weighs only a few grams at most, and you can make it back by eating a few more bites of dry food at night.

Violet was born into a pirate family, and she really took the wool she fleeced to a new level.

With only a few grams of payload, you can easily harvest an entire fashion show of nature using [Alchemy].

If she were to go back to Byron's previous life, every business would close down on the spot.

And girls who go to art school are just different.

She stood in front of Byron happily and changed her clothes one after another. Each piece was well-fitting and beautiful, as if the top tailor had tailored them for her.

Her beautiful color, which was already close to ten points, was raised to twelve points.

Even Byron couldn't help but feel a little excited.

A desire to monopolize the beauty before him gradually emerged, and his eyes turned slightly red:
'Get her, get her'
But at this moment, his body was shaken, and the [Ship's Log] read a new rule from the Golden Apple Orchard:
“In the darkness of privacy, a person’s dark desires will continue to be magnified.

The longer you stay on the island, the more your possessiveness grows until it breaks through your reason and the Anchor, burning you and everyone else to ashes."

However, although Byron's desires continued to be magnified, sticking to his *fetish was his bottom line.

Your Highness, you are very good, but we are not suitable for each other at the moment.

After enjoying Violet's beautiful fashion show, she didn't do anything out of line like the "streaking swordsman" mentioned above.

Of course, even if he did something out of line, he couldn't beat Violet.

I just don't know if the artist would resist when faced with that kind of situation.

Violet finally changed back into her neat clothes for adventures, and she couldn’t help but feel a little scared when she heard Byron share the fifth rule:
“Luckily we were greedy enough.

The person who designed the rules of Treasure Island is simply a devil.

The treasure hunt leading to the treasure cave in the center of the island is more like a greedy road that tests a person's greed.

The greedy live, the contented die!

The more greedy you are, the more you look down on ordinary silver coins and golden apples, and the more you want to keep moving forward, the later you will reach the load limit.

The more contented a person is and the more he wants to grab a handful of treasure and stop while he is ahead, the faster he will die.

After all, although one hundred kilograms of silver weighs the same as one hundred kilograms of gold, the difference is hundreds of times. If the quality is insufficient, the quantity will make up for it, and no one can escape the disaster.

Of course, dissuading the greedy from doing so can also indirectly protect the treasure cave at the core."

The two were about to return to the tree house with a few grams of Murex purple when they suddenly heard a huge shout of killing coming from the other direction of the Golden Apple Garden:
"Put down the golden apple. All the gold here belongs to me!"

"Eat shit, it's all mine!"

"Kill, kill, kill. If you all die, all the treasure will be mine."

"Kill everyone on the island!"

Byron and Violet looked stern.
"It seems like an internal conflict among humans. It's the possessiveness of others that has taken effect."
