Pirate Kingship

The blood moon with the face of Lilith slowly descended.

A sun that was exactly the same as the one in the old world and was not polluted in any way rose up afterwards, dispelling the heavy darkness and another bloody frenzy at night.

The feast of the weird and evil spirits ended, leaving a mess of cups and plates in the human settlements.

The humans who escaped the catastrophe again mustered up the courage to walk out of their houses or shelters and start a new day.

A few people who couldn't tell whether they were lucky or unfortunate had to clean up the "cups and plates" left over from last night's revelry as soon as possible, because they were still stained with the corpses and flesh of their relatives and friends.

If the blood and debris were not cleaned up in time, perhaps you would be the one being cleaned up by others tomorrow morning.

In the Oak Manor, where a fugitive slave appeared yesterday and a slave-hunting team was lost.

There was a knock on the door of the financial steward's house:

"Mr. Colin, Mr. Colin, open the door quickly! A wizard just came to deliver a message in person, and Mr. Smith asked the stewards to go over."

In the past, if a mysterious wizard came to the manor, the stewards who were qualified to contact him would be more active than anyone else.

But the young man, who was a member of the manor guard, knocked on the door twice but no one answered. He lay on the crack of the door and sniffed carefully. As expected, he smelled a strong smell of blood.

His heart suddenly jumped.

"Something happened."

He quickly asked someone to come and break open the door. Derrick, the first-level apprentice sent by [Wolf Grandma] Britney to convey the transfer order, followed him after hearing the news.

But he saw the financial director who lived alone lying on the desk, and he had long turned into a mummy.

The wrinkled skin was blue-black and tightly stretched on the bones, the eye sockets were sunken, and there was no moisture or flesh on his body.

There were two letters on the desk under him, which should have been written just last night.

Colin is one of the few managers in the manor who can write. In addition to managing the accounts, he is also responsible for all the correspondence between the manor and the school.

One of the letters reported that there were escaped slaves and slave-hunting teams that did not return at night. It was speculated that they might have entered the forbidden area. The school was asked to send someone to deal with it as soon as possible.

Another letter reported that an ancient tomb was suspected to have been dug through an iron mine under the manor, and miners disappeared every day. The school was asked to deal with it.

Before the second letter was finished, the tip of the feather pen finally stopped on the word "miner".

And the problem obviously lies here.

The other handwritings were dark blue ink, but this one was red to black, exuding a strong smell of blood, and the handwriting was twisted like a hideous ghost claw.

Others were illiterate and did not find anything unusual at a glance.

Derrick, the wizard apprentice of the Fairy Tale Town School, was different.

When he saw that word, he immediately realized that the missing black iron miners had become [Weird Miners] for some reason!

As the steward Colin accurately described the other party's identity and origin, a mystical positioning similar to the three-part honorific name was generated, and unfortunately the other party came to the door.

He hurriedly stepped forward to grab the letter in his hand, shook it hard, and used the fire-starting technique in witchcraft to burn it to ashes.

He watched the papyrus imported from the Desert Empire and the strange word disappear completely in the firelight, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was still not very good:

"The various dangers in the Corridor of Truth are simply impossible to guard against.

We, the wizard schools that serve as a defense barrier for mortals, can only eliminate the more harmful threats at a fixed point, and it is impossible to protect everyone strictly.

Even if all territories are cleaned up regularly, there are still endless evil things leaking in from the outside and born directly from the inside.

Now the loopholes are getting bigger and bigger, and I don’t know when a "ghost-level" accident will occur in which all the people in the city will die.

Learning witchcraft can’t save mankind, but what can you learn? Alas——!"

From the northernmost to the southernmost end of the Corridor of Truth, countless humans welcome a new day in this way, but they are accustomed to it and are almost numb.

And day after day, year after year, they can’t see the hope of liberation, and tomorrow is destined to be worse than today.

Just as the [Whale Hunter] warned through Salant at the beginning: "We have entered the intertidal zone, please hold on to the ropes around you tightly and welcome the eternal fall!"

The fall of the old continent has just begun, but half of their bodies have been submerged.

Perhaps one day, just saying one wrong sentence may lead to a horrible death.

It is a hundred times more tragic than the literary inquisition.

If the same sentence "Qingfeng is illiterate, why is he flipping through books" is put here, I am afraid that no one else needs to do it, and he and his whole family will die miserably on the spot.

Even from the inside to the outside, from the soul to the body, they are devoured by the taboos in the text.

Derrick was about to order the manor guards to burn Colin's body, and then ask the school for help to deal with the new weird.

But he accidentally found that the mud floor in the house was rising and falling slightly like breathing, as if it was awakened by the many "foods" and was preparing to brew another attack.

I felt a chill on my back.

"That thing hasn't left yet!"

If a wizard from another school came here, he would probably pretend to know nothing, quietly walk out of the house, and return to the sunlight that the weirdo fears the most to save himself first.

But the wizard from the Storybrooke School obviously has a different way of thinking than others, and suddenly shouted:

"That weird thing hasn't left yet, everyone jump out of the window quickly."

Hearing his shout, the manor guards immediately abandoned the body of Colin, the steward, and turned around and ran away.

The [miners] who were lurking underground saw this and immediately broke out of the ground.

Instead of chasing those ordinary people who didn't even know the words, they rushed straight to the most delicious wizard apprentice Derrick.

The pungent smell of earth exploded, and a grotesque twisted by iron ore and seven or eight Black Iron Clan humans jumped out of the mud like jumping out of water waves.

There were seven or eight huge human heads on the giant-like body, and countless blue-black thick arms grabbed Derrick together.

It looked only equivalent to the second-level professional level, but it was still not something that Derrick, a first-level apprentice who was only responsible for running errands, could deal with.

Even oppressed by the opponent's fierce momentum, his legs began to weaken.

"It's over!"

Giant hands grabbed his body like pinching a chicken, raised it above his head and opened their mouths, and then they were about to start exerting force, twisting him into a twist and squeezing juice on the spot.

"Ahhhhh."

The young man's face was twisted in pain, and he felt that his bones began to make crisp sounds.

The manor guards who had already run into the sun took out crossbows and flintlock rifles with trembling hands and fired at the ugly grotesque.

But the rank of [Miner] may not be high, but it has maxed out its defense, and the iron ore all over its body makes it much harder than a heavy armored knight.

The tragedy is about to happen again.

Buzz——!

The air trembled, and mortals could see the golden law network with their naked eyes. It suddenly turned into a rushing tide and swept rapidly from the direction of the seaside, filling every tiny corner.

The power of the mind is faster than the speed of light, and it spread hundreds of kilometers in just a moment.

At the same time, a crisp and pleasant female voice sounded:

"Law: Cannibals die!"

As soon as the voice fell, the originally invulnerable [Grotesque Miner] actually fell to the ground and instantly shattered into a pile of rubble.

Most of the low-sequence monsters and evil spirits within the scope of this law network exploded on the spot. A few middle-sequence monsters did not die for a while, and they fled to the periphery regardless of the sun above their heads.

The lucky ones were already on the edge and successfully ran out.

The unfortunate ones were deeply trapped in the law network. As long as they were within the scope of the law network, they would continue to be attacked by the law. If they did not run out within three minutes, they would all end up like their low-sequence counterparts.

"That's...!!!"

Derrick, who fell to the ground with the monster, ignored the pain in his body and quickly got up and looked towards the west coast, where it seemed that another sun was rising.

The surrounding guards, as well as other people who received the warning and prepared to take refuge, all looked up at the sky involuntarily.

In their eyes, the countless monsters and evil spirits fleeing desperately in the sky and the earth, as well as the warm and brilliant golden light of the law, were reflected.

That light has another name, called "hope!"

"Is that a miracle?"

"Is there finally a savior coming to save us?"

Derrick didn't need to announce to everyone again that Oak Manor had been given to the "King of the Wild Hunt" who came from afar by [Wolf Grandma] Britney.

One after another, the power of mind and will automatically merged into the Golden Law, allowing it to gradually merge with the collective subconscious of the locals.

According to the five-layer hierarchy theory, the bottom layer is the "physiological needs" of food, water, etc., and above this is the "safety needs" of not dying casually.

The combination of the two is essentially survival!

Whoever can make the people of the East Continent live safely will get the most extensive support.

This is also the most orthodox destiny of all rulers in the Corridor of Truth.

Whoever can "expel the weird and restore human rights" can compare with any country that has ever existed in history to what is called "getting the country right"!

The group of distant visitors who came to the end of the second circulation belt obviously brought some completely different changes to this continent.

There are also new choices for future destiny.

The time was slightly advanced.

"Whale oil mechanics will check the alchemy arrays that others are responsible for. After the inspection is completed, all of you should withdraw."

On a cliff corner adjacent to the sea.

The dirt and broken wood on the battlefield that was flattened by Byron last night had long been cleared, revealing the solid and thick rock layer under their feet.

A group of dozens of whale oil mechanics who were accompanying the army worked together to draw a huge alchemy array on the rock layer using materials made of charcoal, brass scraps, spices, gem powder and magic olive oil.

After checking that there were no problems, Violet waved her hand and they quickly withdrew.

The legendary mechanic himself walked into the position set up in advance by the alchemy array.

The sea breeze blew the soft hem of the chiffon long skirt, revealing a section of the girl's white calf as fine as fine porcelain, and light flowed under her feet.

Snap!

Put your hands together, and a subtle electric light exploded from under your feet, and then quickly spread to the entire alchemy array.

As the magic [Gate of Truth] slowly rose from behind Violet, the magic circle suddenly shone brightly, and the light even overwhelmed the sun that had just risen in the east.

The rock formation under his feet trembled, and a towering lighthouse that seemed to have been built in advance was "pulled" out of the rock formation bit by bit.

"Tsk tsk, no matter how many times I see it, the terrifying productivity of high-sequence extraordinary people is still amazing.

And I don't know if it's because the source tide is more active, it feels that Violet's ability to transform matter in the Eastern Continent is much easier than in the Old Continent."

Under the water near the port, the [Wild Hunt Servant] Mire Giant escaped from the Styx last night and re-entered the bottom of the sea.

The biogas mine is being relocated from the nearby seabed to build an underwater defense line that can activate the "Giant's Hiccup" to engulf the fleet at any time. It also serves as Violet's escort.

Byron and Hathaway went to Fairy Tale Town School together as guests, but they did not leave any flaws or defense loopholes for their chosen base camp and queen.

The consciousness can be transferred at any time and descend on the swamp giant.

This continent is too dangerous. Before going to the ten undersea kingdoms to rescue people, it is especially important to build a stable base camp of your own in advance.

Even if you fail, you still have a place to retreat, so that you won't be driven into the sea again.

While driving the giant to work hard, Byron looked through the water at the increasingly tall first-class lighthouse on the shore and the towering [Door of Truth], and thought to himself:

"It is said that the secret of being promoted from a demigod to a true god is hidden in the 'Inverted Tree'.

I really want to open this door and see what is behind it. "

[Gate of Truth] is a research and development and production ability that can comprehensively increase alchemy and even break the iron law of equivalent exchange and conservation of matter to a certain extent.

Byron has always been very curious. If you push this door open, what will be behind it?

Is it substantive truth? The origin of the world? Or is it some great existence that has reached the crown of the "Inverted Tree"?

The door of truth is also a door.

He was filled with the urge to find [Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves] and shout "Open sesame" at the door.

Maybe it might actually be possible to witness the history of the occult with your own eyes.

But Byron thought about it again and thought that he was not a mad scientist pursuing the truth regardless of risk. The risks and benefits were not proportional for the time being, so he regretfully gave up this dangerous idea.

Prepare to wait until the whole family has been promoted to demigod and there is no way forward before trying again.

The main body of the first-level lighthouse was quickly formed, and the fourth-level hero navigator Delia immediately rushed in with her troops to carry out functional construction.

The whale oil lantern in my hand projected blue light, and with the ability of [Heart Mapping], it turned into various tools. I began to repair the lamp room, install the St. Byron lens, and set up the pulley block.

The other Lighthouse Sequence Extraordinaries in the team also made progress due to their successful conquest of the second circulation zone, and the overall strength of the fleet increased by at least 20%.

Building a lighthouse is also extremely fast.

Violet didn't wait for Byron's true form to come back.

With the Trinity [Golden Triangle] on her body, she has exactly the same personality and authority as Byron.

After checking that there were no problems with the lighthouse, he personally ignited the mixture of whale oil and spices in the lighthouse, and then Delia connected it to the network.

Buzz—!

The [Golden Law], which has long spread to the Sun Empire in the Paradise of Beasts, has been successfully implemented for the first time in the Corridor of Truth, which is far away from the entire sea of ​​monsters, using the lighthouse as an anchor.

The golden light illuminates the material world and also illuminates the edge of the sea of ​​collective subconsciousness in the Eastern Continent.

Thanks to the [St. Byron Lens], the lighthouses built by the Lighthouse Federation on the North-South Route and all colonies have greatly increased their power and efficiency by 300%.

With the [Lighthouse Matrix] sharing the pressure together, even ordinary lighthouse sequence extraordinary people can persist for a long time when guarding the cracks in the world.

Coupled with Violet's own [Disaster Witch]'s space power, the secondary world crack that created Little Red Riding Hood's secret realm was successfully closed by her.

But as the law spread, the abnormal reactions reflected in her heart in this new territory also made her frown deeply.

So he casually ordered:

"Law: Death to cannibals!"

The golden law comes with threefold power.

The restless tide of source material within a radius of a hundred miles was forcibly calmed down, and weak monsters and evil spirits were also cleared away by the wishes of countless people.

The hundreds of kilometers covered by the legal network have completely become an enclave governed by the laws of the empire.

Byron's second king's title [Sun King] (incomplete) also solidified partially.

If you want to be completely condensed, you still need to continue eastward, and even crossing the Eastern Continent may not be enough. You must put your hope in sailing around the world.

But at least in the territory they rule, ordinary civilians will no longer cause tragic accidents just because they say a wrong word, and safety is greatly enhanced.

Then the infrastructure team 'Li Wang Construction Company', mainly composed of Taino people [Bear Spirit Warriors], entered the scene and began to build the first port, Yuanwang Harbor.

This logistics army, which is the most efficient in the world, has long been nicknamed the "Infrastructure Maniac".

Effect: "When you obtain any of the world's first achievements, such as building the world's tallest building, the longest highway, the longest span bridge, the largest bastion

It can increase the Legion's engineering construction efficiency by an additional 10% and unlock various engineering drawings in the collective subconscious of mankind.

After workers learn the corresponding knowledge, they can find jobs in the most popular and lucrative new logistics profession [civil engineer].

During this period, Liwang Construction Company has successively built the world's largest bastion, the world's largest dam, and the world's largest shipyard.

The strength bonus has reached an astonishing 130%. Even an ordinary person who joins the Infrastructure Maniac and obtains the Legion title bonus can transform into a small humanoid excavator.

It’s enough to pat your chest and boast: Which company has the best excavator technology? The Golden Empire is looking for the King of Power! "

The terrain of Yuanwang Harbor is flat, so there is no need to consider special terrain. Ready-made design drawings can be used. Soon the construction site will be dusty and full of enthusiasm.

The chants were loud and loud:

"Only those who are useless to society will have a holiday! Every port on the sea is our shining youth!"

"."

Byron regained consciousness, and the swamp giant sank into the water again to carry the mineral veins and set up a defense line.

Violet took a group of whale oil mechanics and naturalists to explore for mineral deposits and draw maps nearby.

There is no need to build this place into a new manufacturing center, but it still needs to be self-sufficient in simple whale oil bullets, sailor swords, and copper and iron parts used for battleship repairs.

Only in this way can Yuanwang Port become their logistics center and bridgehead.

But Violet, who was immersed in her work, did not realize that in the dense mountain forest, a knight in black armor was watching her silently.

His eyes were fervent, and his burning gaze almost turned into substance.

"Yes, that's her, is her name Violet?

With the breath of the North Sea breeze and the cold temperament of the Northland snowfields, this is indeed a beautiful queen from her hometown of the Channel Islands.

Although she is not as good as my Guinevere, she is already the one who is most similar to my beloved Guinevere among the many queens I have met in recent hundreds of years.

I returned to the world in another way, but Guinevere slept in Hades forever.

Only by stealing their beautiful queens from the hands of kings who do not know how to appreciate beauty can I make up for the emptiness of thousands of years and experience the taste of life again.

If I get this Queen Violet, I might be able to summon my Guinevere from the myth based on her similar appearance.

I must get her! "

But the whole person stood there without any disguise.

But when the Golden Law Network, which covered nearly a hundred kilometers in radius, passed by him, a huge mesh leaked out automatically, without any warning to Violet.

It’s not weaker than Byron’s entry [outlaw maniac].

The black-armored knight looked at the Golden Law, which was getting stronger and stronger after the local residents gathered around him, and raised the corners of his lips mockingly:

“It’s amazing.

He was actually able to create his own [Golden Law] in addition to the [Silver Law], and even expanded it all the way to the Corridor of Truth.

If I were just an ordinary fifth-level false god, I'm afraid the Legal Network would have discovered me.

But I am a living legend, a living myth.

It was the direct trigger that led to the destruction of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table, and even the fall of the King of Knights, and the destruction of the country. In the end, they all died, but Guinevere and I were still alive and well.

Therefore, after inheriting the power from mythology, things like [royal power] and law are just stepping stones for me.

No matter how strong the law is, it can't do anything to me, the nemesis of the royal family.

I am looking forward to it now. When I quietly appear in your room tonight and ask you to start a vigorous "Palace Love" with me, your expression will be very cute. "

The knight's hand on the hilt of the sword tightened and unclenched. The already annoying sun in the sky would not set again for a whole day, which made him feel even more bored.

Until he found out that Violet was going to lead a group of people into the mine, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that he might not have to wait until night to get what he wanted.

However, he just turned around and wanted to catch up.

But he suddenly saw on the hillside behind him. At some point, a heavily armored knight quietly appeared there under the cover of the [Golden Law] national border mystery.

A pair of eyes looking at him were full of deep hatred and hatred.

This unexpected way of unfolding made the black-armored knight subconsciously stop.

Feeling the very familiar sun aura on the other party, his eyes flickered, and then he blurted out:

"You are. [Sun Knight] Gawain?!"

My heart was shocked, I had escaped the golden law, but I could not escape the fate of the twelve Knights of the Round Table.

Unexpectedly, while meeting a queen from his hometown, he also accidentally bumped into Gawain, his mortal enemy.

The roars of [Sun Knight] Gawain and Guardian Knight [Iron Wall] Bruch suddenly merged into one:

"[Knight of the Lake] Lancelot, give back the lives of my three younger brothers! Kill——!"

Blazing white light flashed in the forest.

Riding on the fairy horse Greengret, the heavily armored knight, who was more than three meters tall and looked like an armored chariot, jumped up and swung down the [Holy Sword of the Sun] with the help of horse power.

Stab-!

The blazing sword light suddenly split open the entire forest.
