Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 346: Uncle-in-law: His Excellency the Baron is truly the most loyal minister in the kingdom!

A few days later, several cargo ships belonging to the West Wind Express Company slowly reefed their sails and docked at the Jamestown Royal Port Pier.

But what the sailors carried out from the cargo hold were not some sought-after goods from Yucatan Island, but body bags and thin wooden coffins!
It attracted port residents, sailors, privateers, bounty hunters, and intelligence officers from various major forces to come and watch.

"There are so many corpses. Is Sir Sea Hunter going to war with another force?
This shouldn't be the case. After the last dispute among the church countries over the right to preserve religion, we are now a colonial power that is expected to be the second largest. Who would be so blind as to dare to provoke us?"

Most of the sailors in the port were Byron's fans. They were very confident in his abilities and were particularly confused when they saw the corpses.

An experienced old captain nearby, smoking a pipe, explained:
“Can’t you see this?

Look at the clothes that the corpse is wearing, isn’t that the Red Rose of the Lancaster Party?

The Governor is also the Commander-in-Chief of the Bandit Suppression Unit. I think with his ability, he has probably wiped out all the Lancastrians who fled to the colonies."

"Hiss! The Red and White Rose War, which has been fought for nearly thirty years, has finally come to an end. Will there never be a recurrence again?"

The old captain hesitated for a while before saying uncertainly:

“Not necessarily. Even the House of Nobles itself cannot figure out the relationship between the nobles.

There should still be quite a few exiled Lancastrians in the Old World, right?

It is normal for nobles to be connected by bones and tendons, and for you to be in me and me to be in you.

However, these power struggles among the upper echelons have nothing to do with us anyway, so it’s more important to do our own business well.

Come on, guys, stop looking and load the cargo quickly. We will definitely make a fortune when the war of glory and crown on Yucatan Island starts and supplies are in short supply. "

"Yes, Captain!"

Most of the onlookers watched for a while and then dispersed.

Only a few intelligence personnel from various forces are still counting the body count, assessing the impact, and preparing to report to their superiors.

While the sailors were unloading the cargo, several corpses of extraordinary people were already placed in the lighthouse on the other side.

A group of important figures from the Privy Council, the Star Chamber, and the Parliament came here with the help of the lighthouse projection and watched the corpses on the ground.

Among them, the [Wardens], [Executioners], and [Prophets] also used their own extraordinary abilities to conduct detailed inspections.

"That's right, this is [Eye on the Enemy's Moment] Beretania! The appearance, bones, and height proportions are exactly the same."

"Yes, I would never be wrong. The bloodline divination is completely consistent."

“The same goes for Sam Leopold of the Unbreakable Fortress. Even the scars on his body are the same as recorded.

Apart from these two third-level ones, the others are also well-known figures in the Storm Knights.

I have been an executioner for twenty years, and I guarantee with my own head that there is absolutely no problem with these bodies."

"Using the mid-order divination technique that determines life and death, we can also confirm that they are indeed no longer in this world."

Byron, who was accompanying him, remained calm and composed from beginning to end, and did not worry at all that they would notice his flaws.

At this time he was no longer the only god of the natives, but just an ordinary governor of Port Royal.

“Although a lot of transmutation blood was consumed, it was not until today that the Lancaster Party was able to escape by faking their death and completely move from the open to the dark.

It's all worth it.

Without the pressure from external usurpers, won’t the royalists and earls be in a state of panic?

The long-suppressed conflict should be about to erupt, right? "

It is obvious that the corpses here are from the contaminated soldiers and extraordinary people of Tayapan.

The guidance of the [Compass of Desire] was indeed very accurate, allowing Byron to obtain enough corpses in Tayapan without any guilt.

When he and his men arrived at the scene, the bodies were still very fresh and in good condition.

After a person dies, cells can still survive for a period of time. Reproductive cells, cartilage and tooth cells have the longest survival time, up to four days.

With just a small injection of [Transmutation Blood], the corpses can be reactivated and their genetic information can be modified using [Dark Magic: Blood Hound].

Becoming exactly like the real Lancastrian party.

Even traces of life and training will not be carelessly overlooked.

The real Lancaster Party also had their physical information modified by the Bloodhound and was completely integrated into Byron's territory.

Even with divination, it is no longer possible to lock onto the target.

“As for the destruction of Tayapan, what does that have to do with me, Byron Tudor?

That is an internal conflict among the indigenous people. As a 'good man', I always advocate not interfering in other people's internal affairs. Be careful or I will sue you for defamation."

At the same time, Governor Meganella of Iris sent a diplomatic note to Hastings, protesting in harsh terms.

After all, the Lancastrian Party is hiding in the colony of Iris, and this kind of cross-border law enforcement must not be allowed.

Although it led to a war of words, it also indirectly proved the credibility of the action.

In any case, in everyone's perception, it is impossible for Meganilla to give false testimony. What could Byron have to bribe the king's illegitimate daughter?
"and many more."

When the review came to an end.

A distinguished gentleman of the Privy Council and a Knight of the Right Hand of the Sixteen Kings, Baron Frith Woodville, suddenly stood up.

He has fair skin, a strong build, golden hair that looks like the sun, and blue eyes as deep as the sea.

Anyone who sees him will give him a thumbs up and say: What a handsome man.

Byron raised his eyebrows.

Of course, he also knew this Privy Councilor from the core of royalist power.

And you know that Frith Woodville's handsomeness is nothing compared to the beauty of his sister Elizabeth Woodville, the current Queen of Hattings!

Elizabeth's title: [The Most Beautiful Woman in the Channel Islands], as the name suggests, is the most beautiful woman in the entire Kingdom of Hattings.

This title is well-deserved and undisputed.

Even Catherine, who had just reached adulthood, was slightly inferior to her.

Although she was a widow with two children at first, her first husband was Sir John Grey, a Lancastrian who had died in the war.

But her beauty, which was even more legendary than that of Catherine, the Flower of the North, still captivated King Edward IV.

Anyway, since they got married, they have had children at least once a year. The wise and powerful king obviously never thought of letting his beautiful queen take a break.

The queen is either pregnant or on her way to becoming pregnant.

It can be seen how obsessed Edward IV was with this "first beauty".

The queen's father, Richard Woodville, the oldest of the 12 brothers and sisters, and undoubtedly the "brother-in-law of the king", Frith Woodville, also benefited from it.

Not only did he rise rapidly to the top and enter the core, he also occupied two places in the [King's Right Hand].

The Woodville family was in the limelight for a time, and as a relative of the king, they became the most loyal and staunchest branch of the royal party.

Even more loyal than the two younger brothers in "Three Phantom Suns".

Since this important figure who could represent the king to a certain extent had spoken, everyone subconsciously looked over.

He frowned and said:
"Your Excellency Baron, I see that these corpses seem to be a little shriveled, only an empty shell is left."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but become a little nervous.

In such a major event involving rebellion, no one dared to neglect any details.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy.

Byron also thought to himself:

"They were all eaten once by the incarnation of Yet Sumner, the God, and then eaten again by my vampire touch. How could they not become empty shells?"

However, before he could come up with an excuse he had prepared in advance.

The handsome "uncle of the king" inadvertently glanced at the shining "halo of a good man" above Byron's head, and suddenly stepped forward, shook his hand, and said with emotion and touching expression:
"Baron Stromgarde, while you were clearing out the Lancastrian rebels, you actually did not forget to continue collecting [Transmutation Blood] to contribute to your majesty's 'Eternal Life Plan'.

Always put Your Majesty's affairs first.

He is truly the most loyal minister to the kingdom and His Majesty!
I will report to His Majesty when I return. Although the mission in the New World has not been settled yet, I believe that your position as Earl of Stromgarde will not be far away.

Your loyalty is worthy of this honor!"

Byron:
He immediately swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"Thank you. Actually, I didn't think that much. If you think this is more reasonable, then it's fine."

After the team leader made the final conclusion, everyone else finally breathed a sigh of relief and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed again.

Byron did not forget to "blame himself":

“It’s a pity that I didn’t find the elusive Wild Hunt, and the last Lancaster of the Devil’s Son.

I cannot completely relieve your majesty’s worries.”

Frith Woodville patted his shoulder and said comfortingly:
"Mr. Baron, your loyalty is evident to all of us.

Now that he has lost his wings, the last Lancaster is nothing more than a stray dog.

I believe that if he dares to jump out and enter your sight, you will definitely offer his head to Your Majesty."

Byron smiled:
"hope so."

I added in my mind: 'Unless I don't look in the mirror.'

If Edward IV had not urged him, Byron would not have intended to complete the task so quickly.

He even wanted to wait and see if there were any new entries, such as [Schrödinger-style enemy]: "Incredibly powerful when it comes to winning military funds, but weak when it comes to showing off military power."

By suppressing more and more rebels, we can gain more military funds and support.

But the New World was within reach, and he no longer had his eyes only on the wealth.

The Lancastrian party has gone from light to darkness, which is worth more than a few gold coins.

Anyway, as long as he wants to suppress them, there will always be the Lancaster Party for him to suppress.

Even with him around, is it possible that the White Rose Family has no enemies?
I think the old gods that are being resurrected are very suitable.

pop
Byron clapped his hands again, and the waiter who had been waiting outside handed each member of the review team a generous gift list.

"We cannot let you make this trip in vain to help His Majesty. Please take some 'local specialties' back with you.

It's not worth much, just try it for yourself."

He no longer used the trick of bribing the archbishop. This straightforward approach made him seem more sincere and more like one of our own, on the same side.

"Since it is a 'local specialty', we would be disrespectful to refuse it."

A group of big shots all showed more sincere smiles.

It's such a pleasure to deal with such a "good guy".

Not only was he loyal to the king and did things beautifully, he also cared about the fatigue of their journey.

I made up my mind to say a few good words for Byron when I return, hoping that he will be promoted to earl, become a real nobleman, and even lead the development of the New World.

Wouldn’t this “local specialty” be even more abundant?
The group was about to say goodbye and return to report to Edward IV when they were suddenly stopped by Byron.

Byron handed a paper document to the head of the group, Prince Frith, with an exceptionally "kind" smile on his face:

"We, the Pioneer Colonial Trading Company, have already begun preparations for exploring the New World.

In order to raise funds, a 'New World Development, Trade, Tourism and Fishing Crowdfunding Project' was launched.

Here is a shareholding contract. I am willing to give 20% of the shares to His Majesty the King free of charge and 10% of the shares to each of you, so that you can enjoy the final dividend rights.

If there is a profit, we will share the profits. If the exploration fails, there will be no loss. What do you think?"

No one in the group noticed that he paused slightly on the word "fishing".

Their eyes lit up and they signed their names without hesitation on this document that was giving away money for free.

He had no idea how valuable this life-saving money was.

Mr. Guojiu patted his chest and assured:
"Don't worry, leave it to me, my brother-in-law. He will certainly accept it with pleasure and will be pleased with your loyalty."

Byron nodded silently.

"That's good. My uncle and dad will be relieved."
