"Ah ah ah ah ah..."
Byron, who quietly lurked under the window and rushed into the second floor with [Blue Sheep Steps], could not help but pick his ears with his little finger.
"It's so noisy."
[Magic Mirror] The scream that West made when the cow dung entered his mouth was even more miserable than when he was stabbed through the thigh.
For this extreme mysophobia, cow dung is probably equivalent to a very high-level mental attack.
What a shame, what a shame!
West, who was lying on the ground and about to vomit out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and gallbladder, could not wait to recover.
[Eight Fingers], who volunteered to launch the cow dung attack, was already holding a boarding ax and rushed up with two sailors to chop him into a pulp alive.
While chopping, he cursed: "Asshole, you still want to bully us honest people!"
The record of privateer captain [Magic Mirror] West in [Logbook] gradually dimmed.
It represents the end of his history!
Byron didn't even have a chance to take action from beginning to end.
Clearly, West is not alone in his counterattack.
Instead, he summoned a small group next door that was already extremely convinced of him and brought all the equipment to act together.
As Byron completed his promotion, [Echoes of History]'s ability to spy also improved simultaneously with him.
In the past, I could only easily see through ordinary objects, but now I can see through extraordinary beings of the same level.
[Magic Mirror] West and [Blood Eye] Salman both suffered losses, their spirituality declined significantly, and they had already fallen from the second-level professional level.
Naturally, Byron saw it clearly.
He formulated tactics immediately, and after personally taking down the aye-aye and others who were on guard outside, he successfully killed this extraordinary person without any effort.
"Collect the loot, clean the ground, let's retreat quickly!"
Byron stepped forward and stripped off everything on West, the extraordinary man, including his valuable head.
A few young pirates behind him complained that [Eight Fingers] chopped the person into pieces too much, while using a mill dustpan to sweep the body into a waterproof cowhide bag.
Finally, the entire mill was cleaned, not even a single footprint of theirs was left.
Both sides of the battle are outsiders.
The owner of the mill had no property damage, no casualties, and no murder scene. Could it be that he reported it to the law enforcement team just because the mill was too clean?
It's so ridiculous.
Throw all the corpses of the crew of the [White Crystal] neatly into the sea.
The man-eating sharks in the sea that were completely taken over by Byron helped them destroy the corpses and eliminate traces.
According to [Magic Mirror] West, everyone who knows Byron's traces has died here, so there is no need to worry that the remaining crew members of the White Crystal will come looking for them again.
It also saves Byron the trouble of coming to the door to continue "tidying things up".
After everyone returned to the remote courtyard of the Rosemary Hotel, they worked until early in the morning to dispose of the bodies of Salman and the Marines.
As expected, [Cognition Correction] has left a stamp of thought on the brains of small groups.
No one cares about why Salman has sword wounds and bullet marks on his body.
While others were working, Byron had already sorted out the trophies he had collected from [Magic Mirror] West.
Unfortunately, he did not carry the forbidden knowledge [Mirror Divination] that could kill people through the mirror with him.
Of course, even if there were, Byron would not dare to learn this kind of ability... which would be easily defeated by cow dung.
That seemingly inconspicuous horn wine glass gave him a big surprise.
It turned out to be a strange object with magical effects!
He immediately consumed his spiritual energy and used [Echoes of History] to interpret it.
[Wonderful Item: Warrior’s Cup
An ancient craftsman made a Taiwanese wine cup from yak horn.
Effects: 1. The volume is much larger than the appearance. It can hold a large amount of liquids in different categories, but it is limited to liquids.
2. It can separate or polymerize various components in liquid.
Cutting inscription: Qingquan Ruzhu]
In the hands of those ancient Gulf pirates, the [Warrior's Cup] could replace the still and concentrate ordinary quality ale into high-quality spirits.
In the hands of [Magic Mirror] West, it became a tool for purifying water sources, which can purify the seawater contained in it into fresh water.
From the perspective of normal-thinking navigators, the function of purifying water is indeed much more important than concentrating fine wine.
“Although this [Warrior’s Cup] is not a combat-type rare item.
But it has strategic significance for a ship and can greatly extend the ocean endurance.
There is no food to catch fish or kelp, and if there is no fresh water, everything will be over.
And next, I have to hold a ceremony to prepare various kinds of [blood brew], which saves me from carrying many bottles and cans with me. "
Apart from this surprise, Byron turned to the end and could not find anything else of value.
Only a letter cut in half and soaked in blood in his pocket caught his attention.
There was only a very brief sentence written on it in black ink:
"Before the end of October, enter Anchor Bay as a pirate and wait for the next order."
Although there is no logo of the order issuer stamped on it.
Byron did not activate [Echo of History], but he could identify it at a glance. This letter came from the Admiralty of the Kingdom of Hattings!
Paper is a common commodity, but the raw material for making this ink, carbon black, is made from torn leather and sled dog...dog dung.
It has a unique taste that ordinary people cannot easily detect.
The reason why Byron is so clear.
Without him, the reason why this batch of ink entered the Admiralty was because his father, Prince Sorenberg, personally ordered the purchase.
Uh, okay, that ink workshop is actually their family's business.
It's half a month until the change of dynasty, and the previous inventory can't be used up at all.
Sure enough, a new prompt appeared on the [Navigation Log] the next moment:
You have discovered a new secret: [The conspiracy of the Admiralty (York family), historical influence 20, solution density 5%]!
Influence (10-20] means covering one city, one place, or an entire region.
Put here, it is the situation of the entire Iron Anchor Bay, and even the entire North Sea region.
Moreover, this secret does not occupy a separate line, but appears behind [Secret: Shadow of the War of Red and White Roses].
It has become a component of the former, a secondary secret, which shows that there is a great correlation between them, and even continuity!
This also means that as long as Byron can unlock this secondary secret, he can not only greatly increase the former's decryption density, but also immediately receive [spiritual] gifts and new [entries].
“The rain is coming!
As we all know, pirates are not only private armed forces that run rampant across the world, but they are also pawns in games and confrontations between major maritime powers.
Behind the rise and fall of piracy, there must be a huge shadow of regional geopolitics!
There is obviously some internal connection between the changes in the Red and White Rose War and the survival of pirates in Anchor Bay and even the North Sea region that I don't know about.
I thought I could rely on Iron Anchor Bay to develop with peace of mind for a while.
Now it seems that I must build my own armed force as soon as possible, depending on the situation whether it will advance or retreat. "
In fact, for a moment, Byron didn't think about using [Cognitive Correction] to receive West's ready-made [White Crystal].
But not only does he not have West's witchcraft, he also doesn't have his memory. If he dares to sneak into the privateer captain's team, his secret will be exposed in a minute.
He doesn't mind joining the Yorkist party and stabbing him in the back again, but he must choose his identity carefully.
After suppressing the surging thoughts, he raised his head again, and unexpectedly found that the dozen or so crew members who had finished their work were all in front of him.
At the front were the carpenter Hans and his son, and [Eight Finger], who was covered in blood, stabbed through [Magic Mirror] West's most important trainee navigators Thomas and Parry with their spears.
Byron knew everyone in the back by name.
They did not drink the [Transmutation Blood] prepared by Salman like the Marines who were crazy about pursuing extraordinary power.
He was also lucky enough to escape the massacre by the demon in the mirror.
As the acting navigator, Byron naturally became the highest-ranking pirate officer on the "Man-eating Shark".
At this time, more than a dozen pairs of eager eyes looked at Byron, whose strength, knowledge, prestige, character...all were undisputed.
After Captain Salman is assassinated, they urgently need to deal with a most pressing problem...
"Captain! Byron!"
[Eight Fingers], who was full of enthusiasm, suddenly raised his hand and shouted.
Immediately, without any suspense or nostalgia for Salman, everyone shouted in unison:
"Captain! Byron!"
"Byron! Byron!..."
Starting from the top dogleg, little Hans agreed, and the remaining people all recommended Byron as the new captain of the "Man-Eating Shark"!
Old Hans also solemnly held the "Ten Commandments of Pirates" found in Salman's bedroom into his hands.
Symbolizing the complete transfer of the pirate ship's supreme power.
As a result, Byron finally gained a new title - pirate captain - in addition to "The Fugitive" and "The Last Lancaster"!
