Pirate Kingship

Time flies, and it’s late June in the blink of an eye.

As the seasons change, the strength of the source material tide becomes stronger and stronger, and the weather in the Bantaan Islands becomes more violent and unpredictable.

The northern part of the crescent-shaped Yucatan Island, on the edge of the Aztec Empire, is a Toltec suburb with a subtropical desert climate.

A hurricane swept through, with crackling raindrops of beans, and even frogs and sea fish whizzing by.

When it blew over the city, it was inevitably stained with an ominous blood color, which seemed to announce the tragic fate of some people in this city-state.

Rumble.

A group of more than a dozen animals, covered in pitch black, with big heads and broad shoulders, like bison made of pig iron, gathered into a torrent of steel and ran at high speed in the wilderness.

As the largest mammal in the Bantaan Islands, with a shoulder height of over two meters and a weight of up to one ton, it is unstoppable in its swarm charge.

What's a little strange is that among the bison, there is also a white bison as white as snow. Not only does the coat have a special color, but the body is also exceptionally strong.

It's like a moving hill.

Just when they rushed out of the indigenous city-state filled with shouts of killing, they were about to rush into the vast grassland where the grass was taller than people.

Click! Click!

With a series of crisp sounds, the legs of the five or six bison in the front row were easily severed by the dense horse trap holes on the ground. They suddenly lost control and whined like a chariot and hit the ground heavily.

It also blocked the escape path of other companions behind him.

At the same time, a group of elite pirates with pale skin, black eye circles, and a strong aura of death emerged from the dense grass.

They also wear the logos of "Vanguard Military Dispatch Company" and the Azik Royal City, representing their status as imperial mercenaries.

At the same time, they picked up the "deck cleaning machine" equipped with a rain cover in their hands, and pulled the trigger on the panicked bison in front of them.

Steel balls shot out, blood splashed everywhere, and most of the bison fell to the ground on the spot.

There were only three or four black buffalo left, but they turned into [Buffalo Warriors] with the head of a bull and a human body, and rushed towards them with an obsidian saw sword.

"Moo-!"

The white bison in the team also roared with red eyes, leaped into the air and transformed into a huge white tauren.

Carrying two heavy obsidian saw swords, he rushed towards them and said with sadness and anger:

"Those damn rebels have cooperated with you to seize the city-state, why don't you let us go?

Do you and Azik Royal City have to kill everyone? "

[Honest Man] Eight Fingers and the twenty [Bayman Berserkers] around him each pulled out a sharp double-edged battle ax from their backs and strode towards them.

Eight Finger’s increasingly rigid face was full of sternness:

"[White Bull King] Kuot, give up struggling.

Who told you to kill the messenger who believes in the "Lord of Heaven"?

Anyone who dares to bully us honest people should die! "

The dead envoys were not entirely Byron's people, they were just surrender personnel sent by Tenochtitlan, the royal city of Azik.

And it's not really that "honest".

Perhaps because his attitude was a little bit arrogant and he was a little arrogant towards other natives, he was beheaded on the spot by King Kuote.

This group of indigenous people living in Toltec City is also called: the People of the Reeds. They are a group of [Buffalo Warriors] who worship the [White Buffalo Spirit] Putshanvi.

The throne of the city-state is not passed down by blood, but whoever can capture a white buffalo as the soul of the beast will automatically be crowned the king or called the heir.

How much ability and luck do ordinary people have to have in their lifetime to encounter such a good thing? You can reach the sky in one step and be crowned king.

The difficulty that comes with the throne naturally makes you cherish it even more.

Although it only requires them to give up their belief in guardian spirits and integrate them into the Golden Law system as a whole.

But the situation of the people of Lucong is different from elsewhere. The throne comes from the white buffalo. Giving up his faith is equivalent to giving up his legitimacy as a king.

How could he be willing to do it?

The stubborn king naturally became the enemy of all classes in the city-state.

Until things finally got to this point.

His existence blocked the way of too many people. Most residents in the city-state saw the opportunity to rise in class and take a step closer, so they rose up today to welcome the king's master.

It's a pity that this [White Bull King] actually doesn't know.

I don’t know why, but the envoys sent by Azik King City to other city-states died of old age!

It seems that he has the constitution to be killed, and he is often killed when he is on missions.

When the news of the envoy's murder spread back, the city-state immediately held high the banner of disrespecting the gods and sent out troops to attack, then supported obedient agents to take power, and then slowly assimilated in the economic and spiritual fields.

Compared with the relatively gentle Taya Empire in the south, [Conqueror] Cortes and the Aziks were both more brutal and direct.

The moral bottom line is also so low that it is almost non-existent.

The corresponding efficiency was quite high, and Byron simply turned a blind eye.

"Drink, fight with bloodthirsty!"

The Eight Fingers roared loudly, and a bloody halo exploded around his body. His body instantly swelled, and his eyes turned into a cold blood color.

Seemingly crazy, there is ultimate clarity deep in his eyes.

Stepping on the mud under his feet, he was the first to rush towards the third-level [White Ox King] with a mere second-level body.

The aura-like magical ax blade collided with the obsidian saw sword blessed by the shaman, creating an explosive wave of air.

Eight Fingers, who was obviously of a lower rank, was not crushed by the opponent. He only took half a step back and managed to persevere.

Then he roared and continued to pounce.

The others only went to besiege the other black tauren and did not come to snatch the boatswain's prey.

boom! boom! boom!

Thunder exploded one after another, and the Eight Fingers became more and more courageous as they fought.

After turning on the second-level class ability [Bloodthirsty Fighting], you can use the first-level [Extraordinary Endurance] as the basis to greatly improve your physical fitness, strength, reaction speed, wild intuition, and recovery ability.

While shielding the sense of pain, one's own resistance to various abnormal conditions is greatly enhanced.

Curses, acid, fire, and penetrating injuries that can kill ordinary people can only be regarded as minor injuries that slightly affect his combat effectiveness.

Even if you don't usually activate your extraordinary abilities, your physical fitness will continue to improve.

The eight-fingered body has grown to a full length of two meters and three meters, like a little giant.

What's more.

He dared to exchange injuries for injuries and fight for his life. Even if his skin was torn and his body was dripping with blood, he would not take a step back, causing the White Ox King opposite him to exclaim:

"Madman, where did this madman come from!"

While he was beating with his eight fingers, the injuries on his body were recovering at a terrifying speed.

The blood that flowed out did not fall to the ground drop by drop, but continued to flow, turning into a black-red double-edged giant ax in his other hand.

The ax blade was swung, and even the air was screaming.

Obviously, he is no longer the simple berserker he was before, but an enhanced version of the berserker who has turned into a half-night demon after being [first embraced] by Byron.

He didn't inherit many abilities, only two:

[Body of the Half Night Demon], whose physical fitness is comparable to that of five people combined, and has amazing recovery power; and [Bleeding Fighting Technique], which uses blood as the medium of combat!

It greatly makes up for the shortcomings of Berserker's short life.

Eight Fingers looked at the buffalo warrior, whose injuries were lighter than his own, but whose recovery speed was much slower than his own. He smiled coldly, revealing his cold white teeth, and swung his ax at him again.

"I swear in the name of the captain, whether it's a hundred axes or a thousand axes, only one of us can go back standing today."

The promotion of [Bayman Berserker] is simpler and more straightforward than that of pirates, just "kill, kill, kill".

The requirement is to survive brutal and bloody battles to the death, with five, ten, and twenty people

If you achieve the achievements of slaying ten people, slaying a hundred people, or slaying a thousand people that swordsmen often say, you can complete your promotion by stepping on the enemy's bones.

The additional bonus from Byron's [First Embrace] also gave Eight Fingers the capital to launch a step-up hunt.

A few more minutes passed, until the eight fingers were fully activated, but still failed to crush the opponent.

Only then did he accidentally discover that the other party was always covered with a layer of cow-shaped white light. Although his physical recovery power was not good, he could continue to replenish his spiritual energy.

Finally, he realized that when the king escaped, he even took his guardian spirit with him.

He decisively gave up his original hunting promotion plan and shouted:

"Gus, you get half of this prey."

The next moment, the White Bull King heard a chuckle from behind:

"Just waiting for your words, my 'Level 3 Holy Relic: Ox-Relieving Sword' has been thirsty for a long time.

This knife is twenty centimeters long and is made of the most ordinary iron and wooden handle.

But because the owner of the knife knows the body of the cow very well, the knife can be used to cut the cow with ease, and it remains as bright as new even after decades of sharpening.

But it carries a good story from folklore. "

The White Ox King turned around and saw a young man standing behind him who had an ordinary appearance and figure. He only had a pair of blood-colored eyes like the Berserker.

Sure enough, he was holding a chef's knife in his hand, but just by looking at it, he subconsciously felt that the knife was so cold that even the bone marrow was frozen.

Immediately, two people in front of him and behind him rushed at him. When he waved his hand to resist, one of his arms flew up instantly.

The cowhide, joints, fascia, muscles... none of them caused any obstruction to the knife, and there was not even a trace of pain.

It took him a while to react, and he let out an earth-shattering howl:

"Ah——! Don't kill me!"

However, he was soon torn into pieces by Dou Xue Fa and Xie Niu Dao.

After the battle, Guts didn't see anything in his hand [Level 3 Holy Relic: Ox-Relieving Knife], it was just an ordinary dagger.

It was all an illusion!

Only the third-level [Fantasy Treasure House] has the ability to manifest rare objects and holy relics, and Gus does not yet have this ability.

But as long as you confuse the other party's senses and make the other party believe that the thing is real, you can truly exert the magical effect of the holy relic.

After Guts became a half-night demon, the core ability he inherited from Byron happened to be [Charming Humans].

Coupled with the Phantom Blade's ability to control the five senses and confuse the sense of existence, the extraordinary effect of just impersonating the holy relic "Pao Ding Jie Niu" was achieved.

The pretense of murder was over. Although the two of them had not been able to advance to the third level, their spirituality had improved.

Only one opponent of sufficient weight is needed as a sacrifice to complete the promotion.

[Ladder of Glory] professions can be promoted quickly as long as they have enough opportunities to perform their own duties.

Similar to the berserker, the assassin's promotion route is to continuously perform assassination missions, commit one murder after another, and start one [Phantom Killer's Serial Murder Cases] after another.

To be honest, although they have a grudge against the traditional factions in the church, this behemoth has indeed made an indelible and outstanding contribution to the stability of the continent.

If they dare to kill people like this in the Old Continent, it will probably take no time for the judges of the Inquisition to come to their door for a barbecue party.

Otherwise, there would not be a collective exodus of pirates from the East and West Coasts to the Bantaan Islands. A profession that symbolizes turmoil should pursue turmoil for a lifetime.

"This guy is a poor guy. Small city-states are not oily."

Gus said this, and still patiently looted every gold ornament on the victim.

He never touched any financial management, investment, or stocks, and only saved money in the zero-fee savings project of Pioneer Bank.

As long as he looked at the numbers on the deposit slip every day, he would even have sweet dreams at night.

By the way, he used another [Blood Holy Grail] to eat up the corpses on the ground.

This part of the extraordinary materials needs to be used to repay the captain's Night Demon "Promotion Loan". Although the interest rate is not high, no spoils of war can be wasted.

[The Pirate Ten Commandments] are becoming more and more perfect, and they don't want to take the lead in breaking the rules.

Cry——!

At this time, a high-pitched cry penetrated the hurricane and fell into their ears.

Looking up, the newcomer had the body and claws of a lion, the head and wings of an eagle, like a legendary griffin.

The griffin spoke human language, but it was the voice of [Blood Red Whiskey] Alfred:

"Are you done? Go back and have a celebration party.

The agent in the city-state said that he would introduce their queen mother to us, the messengers of God."

Obviously, Alfred has been one step ahead of them, completed his life menu, and successfully promoted to the third-level [Gourmet].

Gained the third-level ability [Sacrament Recipe]:

"It is no longer limited to a single delicacy like geoduck, whiskey, etc., but can combine different foods and cooking methods to produce wonderful chemical reactions.

And everyone's physique and preferences are different, so the "Sacrament Recipe" of the third-level gourmet is naturally different."

It happened that the ability he inherited from Byron was [Vampire Touch], as well as a series of alien delicacies, and the recipe style naturally changed accordingly.

For example:

"Broken internal organs, coagulated blood, entangled tentacles, lifeless eyes, shriveled limbs, broken brains, scarlet fruits.

Rolling in the opposition of red and white, silent in the blend of yellow and brown!"

It is actually his favorite hot pot stew, everything can be hot pot.

Drink it with the soup, and you can transform into a griffin, chimera, octopus shark, dog, cat, dog, etc.

In fact, it's not just them. A considerable number of pirates of the Pioneer Navigation Colonial Trading Company were sent to the war-torn Yucatan Island for training.

Pirates believe in "the survivors are the kings", and those who survived the war naturally increase their strength.

Although Byron is still in Violet's room in Torrent Fortress, he can see everything happening in the distance clearly through the increasingly powerful [Golden Law].

Power is important, but the growth of the direct guards is also a top priority.

He himself has reached the fourth level, and he can prepare for the promotion ceremony and the construction of "heroic soldiers" in advance.

It is better to prepare in advance than to be in a hurry when the time comes.

Although the team construction has just begun, it has gradually taken on the taste of the luxurious configuration of the "Pirate King Group".

Until he changed his vision and saw that in a manor in Royal Port, [Guardian Knight] Bruch walked with the help of the wall, knocking his old waist every two steps, and making strange sounds from time to time:

"Ah, hiss, hiss, hiss" from his mouth.

Look at the [Fairy] Rigeler behind him, who is wearing a dancer's gauze skirt, with ruddy skin and a pair of heterochromatic eyes that seem to be dripping with water.

Byron suddenly realized that Bruch might be the one with the highest "growth" in their core team.
