Pirate Kingship

Later in the day, Jamestown Port Royal.

The Governor's Mansion was brightly lit, well-trained servants came in and out, and the banquet hall was filled with the aroma of delicious food and wine.

Although there were not many attendees at the reception dinner prepared by the Newman family for Byron and Bill, the level was not low.

The Newman brothers, Governor Jefferson Newman and Major General Elsie Newman, as well as their right-hand men, Ivan Derrick, Comptroller of the Governor's Palace, and Mallory Patton, Quartermaster General of the Navy.

They also led several affairs officers and naval commanders respectively.

These are the core figures cultivated and bribed by the Newman family on both the military and political sides. They are also their die-hard supporters and community of interests.

"The governor, major general, and a comptroller are all mid-level. In the small group of the Newman family, there are only a few third-level extraordinary beings.

If you drop a shot of [Blood and Fire Sings Together] here and send these people to the sky together, Jamestown Port Royal can change its name on the spot.

There is no difficulty in receiving it. "

Byron, who was sitting on one side of the long table, was enjoying the carefully prepared seafood dinner, and all kinds of dark thoughts naturally came to his mind.

By the way, I glanced at one of the heirs to the Newman family's huge business, Tyrell Newman and her fiancé Bill.

The two people sitting together were busy making eye contact.

Although you can't be rude in formal social situations, you can't hide the tenderness and sweetness of mutual admiration.

It was like a couple in love who reunited after a long separation and had endless love words to talk to each other.

The guests couldn't help but look sideways at "Bill" and gave them a thumbs up in their hearts.

How about someone else becoming a son-in-law?

Just with this endurance and this fierceness, why worry about not being able to get ahead in the future?

"This is a real warrior!"

"Be hard on yourself."

In fact, only Byron knew that [Guardian Knight] Bruh's mind had become more and more flexible.

Give yourself a reverse cognitive correction in advance.

In the eyes of others, she was Tiril who was as fat as a pig, but in his eyes, she was the beautiful and enchanting [Fairy] Rigreel.

Naturally, it is impossible to feel nauseated.

It can be said that the power of brain power saves the world.

Especially since Regrel had already obtained the second bloodline sublimation ceremony of the Man in the Thousand Faces - [One Person's Family] in "The Thousand Faces Ceremony".

After satisfying the corresponding prerequisites of spirituality and anchoring.

Human skin was selected from two routes: human skin and animal skin.

“It is required to blend into a noble family with more than five members, and the title must be at least Lord or above.

They were replaced bit by bit in front of outsiders, and eventually one person played the five roles, so that the corresponding social circle could not detect any abnormalities.

Last for at least a month.

After the female members are successfully promoted, they can become a lower-level supernatural species of the mythical creature [Gorgon], a snake girl like Beatrice.

Men are promoted to more powerful snake demons. "

The best alternative for her is of course the Newman family.

This family has an earldom title and a total of more than five family members.

It's a pity that the overall strength is too strong, and Rigreel doesn't dare to put on the skin of a third-level human. If he is not careful, he will resurrect the opponent on his body.

The risks are too great and the likelihood of failure is too high.

However, the most suitable target has already been selected.

It was Mallory Barton, the chief quartermaster who managed the arsenal of the colonial fleet, who was at the same table.

Just wait for the right time to operate on his family.

"Bill, this is delicious, eat more."

While taking care of her fiancé, Miss [Fairy] also did not forget to raise her glass to Byron.

She has been very happy recently. Not only has she found her destined lover, but she has also been relieved of the curse of being ugly half the day.

She also received a promotion ceremony and Byron promised to help her take the position of high priest of the Skinning Church.

At this time, he reciprocated the favor. After seeing that the Newman brothers were reluctant to get to the point after saying welcome to their safe return, he took the initiative to ask like a baby:

"Father, didn't you say that once Bill and Byron are promoted to the third level, you will help them to operate the official general rank?

I'd like to give you an accurate answer. When can it be arranged? "

"Ahem, this."

Major General Newman looked a little unnatural. Seeing Byron, Bill, and a group of confidants looking at him, he could only forcefully smile at them:

“Of course I can’t go back on what I promised.

But you also know that because of the last accounts, we have been targeted by the Finance Minister and Admiral [Kingmaker] Earl Warwick.

This time, that time.

Just keeping the position of the Newman family has cost a lot of money and exhausted the favor of the local upper class.

At this juncture, it is not easy to push one of our own people to the top.

But don’t worry, Byron, no matter how difficult it is, I will never break my promise, but I may need to get through this storm first. "

But this reason is only superficial, and the key to the problem cannot be stated verbally.

Back then, when he intercepted and killed the auditors in the middle of the road.

Even the Newman brothers, the two masterminds behind the order, had no idea how Byron was able to create that incredible "flare bomb explosion."

The unknown just brings fear.

From then on, they no longer dared to look down upon Byron, a [pirate] whose extraordinary class was only at the second level.

He even placed him in the same position as himself, as an unpredictable collaborator and powerful ally.

In order to fight against the [Kingmaker] Earl Warwick, they are also willing to endure a little bit of grudge in their hearts, well, actually it is a hundred million bits of grudge, and unite all the forces that can be united.

Now, [Sea Hunter] Byron Tudor, who has returned victoriously from Treasure Island, has completed the promotion ceremony of "Pirate Treasure Box" in one fell swoop, becoming a mid-level transcendent who is truly on equal footing with them.

The grudge has almost turned into deep fear.

Although at present, the interests of both parties are quite consistent, and Bill is the key link to maintain the relationship.

But when superiors judge whether their subordinates are rebels, they never look at what they think in their hearts, but only whether they have the strength to rebel.

Facing Byron's rapidly expanding strength, it would be completely impossible for them to resist.

Byron already has strength. Once he has an equal position with them, where can he continue to manipulate him?

When the trapped dragon ascends to heaven, it will no longer be possible to tell who is the king.

'Well, if only Bill was the one who broke through.

At least it is far easier to control than Byron, a guy who is invisible to everyone. ’

His only advantage over Byron now is that as a Yorkist nobleman, he has his own network of contacts.

If you were an ordinary person, even if you have money, you don't know where to send it or what to send. You will be eaten up by those greedy old nobles for nothing, and you will return empty-handed.

As an upstart who had finally followed Edward IV, the Newman family had suffered losses, jumped through pitfalls, and paid tuition that would make them cry.

Having learned the rules of the aristocratic game all the way, he didn't think Byron could leave him alone.

'Young man, you don't understand the world of aristocrats, so you should go back and practice hard for two more years. ’

Major General Newman couldn't tell anyone what he was thinking. As an old fox, he couldn't just break the contract for nothing and offend Byron, his capable general and collaborator.

But he encouraged him:

"Byron, you have always been my confidant. Among all the young people in the colony, you are the one I like most.

The opportunity that belongs to you will never run away sooner or later.

After all, the Kingdom's Admiralty is not a place where Warwick, the Kingmaker, can dominate the world with one hand.

The navy has always been the king's private army, and the power of those of us royal parties is not small.

As long as you can establish impeccable military exploits, not even Warwick can stop you from successfully ascending to the throne.

It just so happens that I have a mission assigned by the royal party.

The kingdom was dissatisfied with the trash of the Inquisition, and it had been struggling for months but could not find [Wild Hunt] and the last Lancaster.

The greatest danger to the kingdom now is these remnants of the Lancastrian party.

If you can win a few heavyweights, I can ask His Majesty for help.

How about I issue a warrant tomorrow and appoint you as the Commander-in-Chief of Suppressing Bandits? "

These two guys are both born in the year of the fox.

Byron wanted to use Yorkist money and people to raise an army for himself.

Newman thought of consuming Byron's troops to accumulate merit for himself and ask for credit from Edward IV, which was not a good idea.

Byron's expression remained unchanged and he kept saying yes.

But there was a cold look in his eyes, and he already understood in his heart:

‘Are you trying to suppress me intentionally and deny me promotion?

In order to fit in with the character of my confidant, I didn't even bother with my sister's feast. Why don't you just leave it here for me to change my face?

Besides, you want me to encircle and suppress the Lancastrians?

You are afraid that these bandits will not kill more and more, and you yourself will not die fast enough.

The backing will fall, and everyone will run. When you reach a certain size, the original assistance will turn into resistance.

It seems that there is no need to give hope to the Newman family anymore, it is better to send them on their way as soon as possible. ’
