Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 447 Return: Retracting the fist is for a better attack

When a secret is known by a second person, it is no longer a secret.

The best way to prevent unknown dangers from spreading through knowledge and information is to take the secret into the coffin yourself!

Although Salant was reluctant to say more, Byron could probably infer one or two truths based on the taboos he mentioned and the current status of the supernatural systems of the "Dragon Court" and "Beast Paradise".

“During the mythological era, there should have been communication between the various continents, and all the changes should have originated from the great flood at the turn of the era.

Among the three continents, the old continent 'Dragon King' ruled by the church has the weakest knowledge activity.

The attitude towards knowledge is to block, restrict and utilize.

All harmful knowledge, including the entire mythological era, has been erased from history, and the human-based [Ladder of Glory] has no side effects.

The corresponding rules are strict [divinity]. "

"The knowledge activity of the Southern Continent's 'Beast Paradise' ruled by various totem gods is in the middle.

The attitude towards knowledge is openness, dissemination and development.

The "Book of Beast Families (Volume 2)" is available to everyone and contains many [False Gods] who have successfully achieved immortality.

However, the [Bloodline Original] route, which is based on natural spirits, requires humans as anchors. Once the tribe is defeated, the loss of anchors will be too great and it is very likely to become alienated and degenerate.

There are the fewest restrictions and the most opportunities here. The extraordinary people from the Old Continent who come here may usher in a promotion carnival.

It corresponds to the "human nature" that can make free choices. "

“Finally, since the knowledge of the Eastern Continent has begun to actively pursue humans, it is obvious that knowledge is the most active.

I'm afraid it is knowledge itself that rules there!

Unknown, bizarre, and cursed spirits from ancient history, myths, legends, and horror stories sit high on the throne, shepherding all living things.

There is a similar existence in the Old World: the [Cursed Spirit - Life-threatening Clown], which makes the church's night watchmen go to the lengths of modifying the cognition of everyone on the entire continent in an attempt to seal it.

In the Eastern Continent, the extraordinary world and the mortal world may be clearly divided. Mortals can probably only continue their race with great difficulty by keeping secrets, observing precepts, and isolating themselves.

And since the flood was so severe, it is possible that a group of mermaids or other ocean kingdoms similar to the Tudor family were formed, forming a closed inner world together.

There corresponds to the absolutely chaotic [animal nature].

This should be the most reasonable guess at present.

Therefore, everything and everyone related to the East Continent may inadvertently violate taboos, so it is better not to say anything.

The choices made by my father and my younger brother were correct. They regarded themselves as the last firewall. "

Even though Byron only vaguely deduced a glimpse of that distant continent, he still felt a little chilled by his own conjecture.

On the surface, he was already an old captain who was ahead of most adventurers and stood at the starting point of the second circulation belt.

But at this moment, I just feel that I am still that young boy who just went to sea.

All the storms and waves that had been experienced in the past seemed to become small scenes in front of that eastern continent.

Whether it was the experience of his maternal Tudor family, or the unknown accident that befell his father-in-law the whale hunter, Byron could not help for the time being.

He couldn't even inform [Whale Hunter] Jack Harold about what happened between him and Violet.

Of course Byron had some doubts. If he could get through his father-in-law's faith network and give him a remote wave of his hands, the old man would definitely swim across the entire sea of ​​monsters to come back and "bless" him.

He is the type who will kill anyone who stands in his way, and will kill anyone who stands in his way.

"So, it's still a little too early to go to the Eastern Continent now."

With the previous experience of [Whale Hunter], the king and pseudo-god who reached the fifth level, Byron decided that he would never set foot in the second circulation belt before he was promoted to the fifth level.

I am the pioneer, and others charge first.

Let others compete for the first place. If he wants to increase his legendary status and leave his name in history, or accelerate his spiritual growth, he has plenty of ways to do it.

Since I can't help you right now, it will never be wrong to go back and continue to improve my strength.

clang!clang!clang!
At this moment, the diligent lookout on the mainmast suddenly sounded the alarm.

"Captain, a fleet is coming from the east coast!"

Everyone turned to look.

At the end of the snowy east coast, a joint adventure fleet flying the flags of multiple forces rounded the cape and rushed into the wide second circulation belt without stopping.

With the help of the ocean currents, it sailed towards the Eastern Continent in the northeast direction.

[Navigator] Delia frowned and said to Byron:
“Captain, there should be a fourth-level navigator or sailor among them, so that they can successfully avoid the clan forces entrenched on the east coast.

But now that the material world has entered the intertidal zone, the continents are beginning to 'rise'.

With their extraordinary level and personnel size, it would be a bit beyond their capabilities to rashly head to the Eastern Continent."

Byron also agreed with Delia.

He discovered that these adventure ships were the "comrades-in-arms" who had fought together with the Golden Deer to win the first colonial war at the beginning of the month.

Many of them were kind-hearted people who gave him 10% of the whale oil production for the sake of the Lantern Man and the Ghost Fleet.

Byron also didn't want to see these elite adventurers from the Old World go to dangerous places like the Eastern Continent and die in vain when the situation was unclear.

By then, what will be lost is the overall strength of humanity.

So he ordered Delia:
"Send a warning signal to the [Navigator] on the other side, and do your best to persuade them in my name."

The navigator is almost equivalent to the ship's navigation and communication system. It is standard on adventure ships and naturally there is also a public communication channel.

However, after Delia's signal was sent out, every adventure ship responded politely to the famous [Sea Hunter] "Saint Byron".

But not only did they not stop, but they all activated their extraordinary abilities and ran faster.

Obviously, even though they witnessed the fantastic scene of "fishing for the old gods" with their own eyes, most of them believed that Byron was the reincarnation of the "Holy Spirit" and were still well versed in the essence of Schrödinger's belief.

When faced with difficulties, everyone becomes a devout believer: "God, save me! I am willing to sacrifice everything!"

When there is benefit, it becomes: "Holy Spirit? How many divisions does the Holy Spirit have?"

To the pragmatist, the number and frequency of eggs handed out by the church determines the extent of my faith.

When Delia saw their ungrateful reaction, her eyebrows immediately raised. She wanted to say something else, but Byron raised his hand to stop her: "Forget it, it seems that we can't persuade them to come back.

I'm afraid this adventure team is not the first one to set out. They are all impatient, ignorant and fearless people. They probably think that we are trying to steal the credit and benefits from them.

Besides, we can’t produce irrefutable evidence, so we should just take care of ourselves first.”

At this moment, Salant Tudor suddenly interjected:

"Captain, where are you going next? Would it be convenient for you to take me with you?"

Byron was stunned.

"Huh, so proactive?"

He originally wanted to take this cousin away, but then he thought that as the bishop of the Whale Hunter Church, he would actually take the initiative to ask to take him away.

Salant saw his doubts and smiled bitterly:
"You have seen my situation. If I continue to stay in this low-lying place, I may not be so lucky to be rescued by you next time.

It was obviously not enough for me to hide here from my hometown with the help of Lord [Whale Hunter].

Only by hiding in a place where the source tide is more stable can I avoid further trouble.

My leaving the believers here may not be a bad thing for them.

No matter where your destination is.

Although I don't have much savings, my third-level strength should be enough to help you."

Byron naturally would not refuse, and nodded to him with a smile:

“Then come with me to the Bantaan Islands first, and if that doesn’t work, then go to the Old World.

Come, sign here first.

If you follow me, your future will definitely be bright. "

Byron took out his bulky copy of "The Ten Commandments of Pirates" and asked Salant to leave his name on it, officially joining the Vanguard Colonial Trading Company.

Become a glorious pirate!

I don’t know what the elders of the Tudor family would think if they saw this scene.

His younger brothers and sisters are so blessed to have a caring cousin like Byron.

Of course, Salant is protected by the increasingly powerful legal network of the Pirate Ten Commandments, so at least he will not be alienated and out of control as easily as before.

Afterwards, the Golden Deer followed Salant's instructions and sent the awakened believers and priests back to the tribe's refuge.

Violet also left all the weapons and ammunition she had except for those needed for the necessary battle to them.

The tribe serves as an anchor for the gods, and the more they grow and prosper, the safer the [whale hunters] will be.

It was one of the few things they could do for Jack Harold.

After finishing the final touches, Byron immediately ordered to return:
“Miss Delia, since we have no hope of getting the naming rights for Harold Channel, we will just go around the entire Zoo along the east coast.

This achievement should be enough for you, a second-level [Navigator], to be promoted to the third level.

Pulling back the fist is for a better attack next time. Take advantage of this time to grow well. Sooner or later, we will conquer the East Continent. "

Delia was delighted:
"Thank you Captain!"

They opened the border puzzle of the [Overseas Development Order] and the [Around the World Travel Notes] that involved cutting through mountains and building bridges across rivers, and successfully passed through the clan's sphere of influence.

After spending three days drawing a nautical chart, they never returned to the Centaur Islands in the Rift Trench.

Instead, it rushed straight through the bridgehead "trap door" and rushed into the Calm Belt and the Broken Islands.

"Order, return at full speed!"

Ever since someone gave up his plan of having "one king and two queens" and revealed his true colors, he has never had the opportunity to go back and appease the other queen, Catherine.

The online platform and the head maid Shirley may be able to help them achieve remote bloodsucking, but not everything can be done remotely.

At this time, in the dungeon of Island No. 1, Edward Redbeard was still enjoying the dissection meal of the Skinning Church: "Mr. 135, Ms. 246, half man and half woman every day."

Byron also has a rotation schedule waiting to be executed: "Monday, Wednesday, and Friday are witches, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday are sisters, and Sunday is together."

Byron was already eager to return home.

Even the new king of the Sun Empire, his good brother Atahualpa, urged him several times to quickly choose the treasures.

Violet and I only picked one each, and the remaining four chances were all reserved for Catherine to make up for her hard work in looking after the house.

Violet picked out a rare item, the [Sun Amulet], which was imbued with the blessings of the [Sun God] Inti and other lords of the stars.

Similar to Atahualpa’s fortune, both have an impact on a person’s fortune, but the latter is a talisman.

It can greatly increase the "survival" probability of [Death Roulette], allowing this powerful supernatural ability that has only been used once to be truly deployed on the battlefield.

Byron chose a second-level holy relic [Furnace Forging Hammer].

The effect is a collective amplification, which can double the work efficiency of all craftsmen within a one-kilometer radius.

The only side effect is that it makes the user feel uncomfortable when not working.

It will become more and more uncomfortable as time goes by. If you don't work for three days, your hands will itch unbearably, and if you don't work for seven days, you will feel excruciating pain.

As for who will use it specifically?
Little Hans has decided that it is you!
By then, I can form a perfect ox-horse combination with my cousin Edward who doesn't need sleep.

The first heavy-duty cruiser that is invincible in single combat was originally expected to be launched before the end of this year.

Now that Violet has been promoted to a fourth-rank [Craftsman] and has the help of [Furnace and Forging Hammer], Byron feels that within three months at the latest, the battleship he has been dreaming of can be launched ahead of schedule.

By next year, we can increase our military presence on a large scale at a speed as fast as producing dumplings.

At the same time, [Theseus Ship Spirit Ritual] not only allows people to turn themselves into ship spirits, but also has a forbidden ritual that can stimulate the potential of the strange warship itself and give birth to a natural ship spirit!
With the advent of the first epoch-making heavy-duty cruiser.

Perhaps a [Legendary Battleship] that can compete with a fifth-tier legend may be born from Byron in the near future.

Byron stroked the forging hammer in his hand, and the corners of his mouth gradually rose uncontrollably:
“It’s about the same time as the warship was launched. Before the rainy season ends in November this year, the Castile Kingdom’s treasure fleet will definitely return to the mainland from the Bantaan Islands.

By then, my promotion ceremony to the fourth-level [Storm Lord] will be ready."
