Pirate Kingship

The Castilian fleet that can appear in the first circulation zone at this time point is undoubtedly the [Treasure Fleet] that just set off from the mainland more than ten days ago.

Countless huge white sails are connected together to reach the sky. From a distance, it looks like big white clouds floating on the water.

The scale of this ocean voyage was unprecedented, and the total number of main cargo ships and escort warships exceeded one hundred.

And most of them are large Galen, extremely large in size, with a displacement of nearly 1,000 tons, almost reaching the critical line of a third-tier battleship.

This is also the ultimate configuration for ocean voyages. No matter how big it is, the living conditions for sailors will be as harsh as those of warships. The self-sustainability will be greatly reduced to less than half a month, and the ocean-going capability will be lost.

The treasure fleet usually traveled regularly between Castile and its overseas colonies, transporting goods from the Old World to the colonies and transporting colonial products, especially gold, silver, spices, gems, tobacco, sugar, etc., back to the mother country.

In addition to the main cargo ships and escort warships of the treasure fleet, there will also be some cargo ships of big nobles and big businessmen accompanying them to enjoy the protection of the treasure fleet.

The royal family was allowed to take a fifth of their cargo for security costs.

At the end of this fleet, there is a fourth-level nominal battleship with the emblem of Princess Isabella and the skull of a strange war horse, which is also a rare object battleship [Huma Rare].

The heroic female captain was holding on to the railing on the stern of the ship, chatting with a burly middle-aged knight, her attitude was very polite:

"Knight Isaac, Her Royal Highness the Princess has given me authorization, and I will fully cooperate with you and the Poor Knights in the audit of the colonial assets.

Your Highness should have told you that this loan business is very important to our Princess Party.

Even the transportation of overseas supplies this time is secondary. The main purpose is to use the opportunity to cover up others' eyes and cooperate with you to audit assets and evaluate loan limits.

So I would like to remind you again, try not to have any contact with any outsiders when you arrive in the colony, and you must not reveal the financial situation of Her Royal Highness the Princess. "

Hearing this, the middle-aged knight slapped his chest loudly:

"Captain Jeanne, our 'Poor Knights' have been handling savings, loans, and remittances for pilgrims going to the Holy City since the beginning of the church country's Western Expedition. You can rest assured in terms of professional ethics and credibility.

Even if I die, I will never reveal any of my clients' privacy to anyone. "

The red-haired female captain, who was about thirty years old, was wearing an obviously modified navy uniform. Her legs were round and slender, and her plain white military trousers were held up in a rounded arc behind her hips.

Especially the bust was extremely exaggerated, and the military uniform was completely tight. Anyone standing in front of her would have to worry about whether those brass buttons would suddenly pop open and fall into their face.

Even Mithril Dragon Lady Catherine only has a D, but this lady has at least reached an extremely exaggerated E.

On the other hand, the middle-aged knight opposite him seemed too ordinary, with an ordinary appearance, an ordinary figure, and an ordinary dress.

The only unusual thing is the knighthood medal worn on his chest.

The main body of the coat of arms is two knights riding on the same horse, each holding a shield with a red cross in their hands, charging at the enemy with their spears.

This is the famous "Poor Knights" in the old continent.

Because it was originally founded by two knights on the ruins of Solomon's Temple, it was named "The Poor Knights of the Son and Solomon's Temple", referred to as the "Poor Knights".

Why do we say "poverty"?

Because although most knights are nobles with status, they have hereditary titles and fiefs.

However, after many generations of inheritance, many knights have long since lost their fortunes, and their fiefdoms have been sold and mortgaged. It can be said that apart from their knighthood and extraordinary knowledge, they are destitute.

The two founders of the Knights could not even afford a horse and could only ride one horse together. This is also the origin of the badge of the Poor Knights.

However, although many people think that the pattern of the medal is to show the mutual aid of the knights on the battlefield.

But in the eyes of more outsiders, this style of painting is actually a bit weird (gay).

Of course, many years after its establishment, "poverty" has long become a thing of the past.

Because this knightly force that brought together arms and faith was supported by the church, it took the lead in developing the earliest banking industry and was already one of the important pillars of the gold and dollar sequence.

Anyone can be poor, but banks are not.

Moreover, since the birth of the "Poor Knights", it has always had a good reputation and has never breached a contract.

They were determined to ensure the absolute freedom of bank transactions. Even when they were fighting with the Star-Moon Empire, the silver in the hands of the Star-Moon nobles could still flow freely from the vaults of the Knights' banks.

A model for the banking industry!

This style of valuing contract and order above all else has made the banking business of the "Poor Knights" a great success.

During the Dark Millennium, many kings even borrowed money from them when fighting wars.

But this time, Princess Isabella, who is vying for the throne of Castile, obviously has her main purpose not just to accumulate floating wealth in the colony, but to use her own assets as leverage to leverage the largest financial resources. !

As for what she used to loan so much money to the Knights at once?

No one knows except a few close confidants.

The two of them finished chatting about the business and looked at the strange sailing boats slowly hanging behind them.

Knight Isaac couldn't help but frowned:

"Although those ships look normal, if you look closely at the number of gun ports hidden on both sides of the ship, they should all be pirates or privateers from other countries, right?

Is the Treasure Fleet just going to be followed all the time? "

The red-haired female captain obviously often takes this route and has long been accustomed to this scene. She smiled indifferently:

"Knight Isaac, don't worry. Although the goods from the Old World on the ship are still valuable, they are nothing compared to the goods they brought back when they returned.

For this little thing, any plunderer going head-to-head with a well-defended fleet would be a loser.

There are people who do beheadings in this world, but no one will do business at a loss. They are just following behind to pick up leaks. If there is a storm, it may break down.

When we return in October, we will rely on the "Key to the Treasure Ship" to seal off our presence. Even if the ship is filled with treasures, no one can find us.

The three secret keepers this time are His Majesty the King, [Puppet King], and [Sailboat Collector] Moulton Gray.

Absolutely no one can use violent means to make them leak the secret.

Not to mention mere pirates, even privateers from hostile countries cannot find our whereabouts. "

However, it was at this time.

The [Golden Deer], the fastest in the world, suddenly broke into the formation of the two parties who were originally at peace with each other, triggering the destiny: Who dares to be faster than me!

"When you get on this boat, you will be the fastest men on the sea. Others only deserve to eat your wake.

When sailing in a formation, you can only act as the leading ship, and there is no possibility of retreating behind others. "

He involuntarily accelerated forward, and even further forward, he seemed to have surpassed the entire treasure fleet and reached the front row of the queue.

There were many sailing ships following the large fleet, but it was so outstanding that it immediately attracted the attention of many Castilians in the fleet.

Byron himself found this behavior a bit ostentatious.

But after taking a look at the two slightly trembling puppet threads on the bow of his ship and the flagship of the Grand Fleet, the corners of his lips curved slightly:

"interesting.

The puppet thread tied half a month ago was actually for the Treasure Fleet?

That [Puppet King] Louis seems to be planning some plan against the Grand Fleet. Does he want to lure me in to serve as cannon fodder for him?

Otherwise, I really can't figure out why he would deliberately let us meet here unexpectedly. "

In fact, his last entry [I don’t eat beef] was aimed at the taboos of weird evil spirits, or the control and rule-based abilities of other extraordinary beings.

Break the rules set by yourself or others to a certain extent.

The degree of weakening depends on one's own extraordinary class. It can be weakened by one level at most. The fifth-level rules can also be weakened to the fourth level, reaching a level that one can compete with.

By shouting "I don't eat beef", Byron can transform into the most unruly contract fraudster, jumping left and right among various contracts, rules and taboos.

As long as he wanted to, he could resist this interference of fate from the underworld.

But rather than taking the initiative to avoid the little trouble in front of him, Byron actually wanted to take this opportunity to find out what the Puppet King was planning and whether it would hinder his robbery.

At the same time, new writing appeared in the logbook [Secret: Crisis of the Treasure Fleet, historical influence 28, solution density 15%].

Let Byron's eyes light up:

"I am worried that the spiritual progress of my two sisters and I is too slow. The new entry [Why not eat minced meat] has not been opened yet, so I fell asleep and came to the pillow."

As the [Golden Deer] gets closer and closer to the fleet.

On the [Son Ma Rare] located at the rear of the fleet, the female captain Jeanne suddenly heard the voice of the Treasure Fleet Commander:

"Order, the [驽马鳵鰵]] goes out and kills this chicken to show the blood to other people with evil intentions!

If we don't express this, others will think that we Castilians are all good-tempered. "

Whether it is the escort ship of the treasure fleet itself or the private army of nobles who are hitching a ride, as long as they join the fleet, they will be under the command of the fleet commander.

Even if the female captain and the fleet commander have the same extraordinary level, and the master is the royal Princess Isabella, they must not break the rules.

Moreover, everyone in Castile regards overseas interests as their own and looks down on other countries. There is no difference between camps.

"As you command, Your Majesty Commander."

The female captain clasped her breasts and stirred up another turbulent wave.

Then he gave an order to the whole ship:

"Adjust the ship with the wind, load all the guns, and let's sink that ungrateful warship."

"As you command, Captain."

Just as the crew was pulling the sails and cables, or running to their respective combat positions, pulling out the cannons, they were all busy.

The female captain jumped up to the helm and while steering the wheel herself, she shouted loudly:

"The Contracted Heroic Spirit, Don Quixote, is here!"

The Silver Law manifested, and a tall and thin knight on a horse suddenly jumped down and jumped into her body.

At the same time, the four holy relics placed in various locations on the ship also began to glow.

There is a warhorse skull at the bow, an ancient shield on the left bulwark, a rusty iron gun on the bow girder, and a pair of knight's armor tied to the mainmast.

Oops~

With a sharp horse neigh that tore through the sky, a knight's shadow as big as a hill suddenly enveloped the entire warship.

Using the sails as horses, the bulwarks as shields, and the cannons as guns, like a knight in armor, he charged towards the [Golden Deer] in a completely contrary trajectory of wind direction and wind speed.

The female captain shouted the family motto: "Freedom is as dignified as dignity, and it is worth risking your life. Being enslaved without freedom is the most painful thing in life!"

Jeanna Don Quixote is obviously a fourth-level [Oath Knight] and also the guardian knight of Princess Isabella.

She was born in the famous knight family of the Kingdom of Castile: the Don Quixote family.

Her oath hero is also the famous knight [Ridiculous Knight] Don Quixote, who was born on the land of Castile during the Dark Millennium.

At the same time, she also inherited the title [Don Quixote] passed down from generation to generation in the family.

This title represents high moral principles, fearless spirit, heroic behavior, firm belief in justice, and loyalty to love.

There is also a contradiction between ideals and reality!

Title, Heroic Spirit, and the holy relic set [Don Quixote's Knight's Heart]:

An old shield, an iron spear, a set of armor, and a horse skull that originally belonged to the mount "Naoma Nanran" can activate a magical skill: [Ridiculous Ridiculous].

"When doing justice, as long as you use your imagination and shout out the words "Ridiculous Ridiculous", you can change the form of the surrounding objects at will and turn your ideal into reality!

Windmills become giants, sheep flocks become armies, and barbers become knights. It is far more powerful than the fantasy treasure house of [Phantom Blade]."

Destiny: Because of the ridiculous characteristics of the Ridiculous Knight, each generation of Don Quixote family heirs faces different side effects of destiny, but they are all presented in a very ridiculous way.

For example, the random side effect of Jeanna in this generation of [Don Quixote] is:

"Luck of spearmen has always been E, and breasts are also E!"

Although she will have bad luck indirectly and get involved in all kinds of unexpected troubles, she also gets the same level of breasts, and she has experienced an unbearable burden at a young age.

Although outsiders do not know whether this kind of destiny is a negative effect or a positive gain for a beautiful woman.

But it is really strong!
