Pirate Kingship

After the divine war that took place in the Southern Continent in early 1474 of the Silver Age, the First Empire on which the Sun Never Sets had essentially ruled four continents.

All human powers that directly or indirectly control the entire material world:

"North Sea Empire, Iris Kingdom, Netherlands Kingdom, Holy Silver Empire, Pyrenees Empire, Star-Moon Empire, Fire Worship Empire, Holy Gold Empire, Sun Empire, Desert Empire, Lighthouse Federation, and the entire Ancient Pillar."

Dozens or hundreds of years ago, the Old God Familiar Tribe who successfully landed ashore took advantage of the gradually active tide of source material. Naturally, their sphere of influence on the shore was extremely compressed by them.

The activity of various weird and evil spirits in most places has dropped significantly.

Only the Solomon Empire on the east coast of the Paradise of Beasts and dozens of Familia Kingdoms on the west coast of the Corridor of Truth are still holding on. They are all extensions of the Sea of ​​Monsters in the hands of the old gods.

This treacherous sea area is blocked by the [Bound Creator]. There are no zero-level world cracks inside, but there are countless first-, second-, and third-level cracks.

In the beginning, most of the dependents who were no more than fifth-level pseudo-gods crawled into the material world through the cracks in these worlds.

After that, either by spreading knowledge, spreading pollution, or by multiplying blood descendants, the churches of Old God, large and small, were finally formed.

Only by destroying these bridgeheads built on the shore will many clan forces have to retreat to the depths of the sea of ​​monsters.

We have to wait until the great flood of Luoyan Period arrives before we can make a comeback.

Winning this battle can at least buy mankind more than ten or twenty years of stable development.

In the past, there were only backward feudal agricultural countries in the material world, and even after thousands of years, there was still little change.

Except for Byron, Catherine, and Violet, no one knows how dramatically industrialized countries will change within a single generation.

The "St. Byron Code" that integrates the "Silver Law", "Golden Law", and "Bronze Law" will be strengthened to such a terrifying level.

In addition to the military fortress composed of guns and warships, this is the most unbreakable deep sea defense line!

Byron has not forgotten that the core forces of the old gods have always been direct descendants of those mirror islands outside the world. For thousands of years, they have been guarding the kingdoms of gods and waiting for the resurrection of their own gods.

In addition to facing the world-destroying flood and the old gods, human beings also have to face powerful enemies that cannot be ignored.

Therefore, the main force in the war cannot only be the Gulf people. Byron also drew elites from various human countries and trained them into new troops according to the modern military model of the Bay people.

The future is a disaster for all mankind. It obviously does not make sense if only the Bay residents, who are a minority group, are allowed to take the lead.

Only when people help themselves can God help.

In the past, when there was no unification of the world, the top leaders of each family could discuss whether to fight or flee, but now the entire human race can only have one will.

Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of the army by escaping will be immediately killed on the spot!

Every human being must contribute his or her own strength and do his or her own job well. Those who are armed can join the army, and the elderly and weak can assist in agricultural and industrial production. Even if they can only provide a trace of their willpower, it is still good.

The major arsenals in the country are operating at full capacity, producing the most advanced arms and equipment for the new armies.

Bolt-action rifles, shotguns, dreadnoughts, and secret weapons just developed for the Army are all coming off the assembly line at a rapid pace.

According to the current productivity, it is not difficult at all to raise five million out-of-work "defender armies".

Of course, at the current stage, the counterattack against the Solomon Empire and many Familia Kingdoms is being handled by the empire’s generals, ministers and members of the Sabbat Council.

The entire empire's war machine began to gear up, and the Byron family, who acted as the backbone, suddenly became idle.

It's not that they really have nothing to do, but that they have a bigger task than anyone else.

It is also a top priority concerning whether the Lancaster royal family and even the entire human pantheon can advance further.

That is to find the way forward to break through to the seventh level True God!

Flowers bloom all year round in the undefeated Huashan Paradise.

As two of the four basic elements, the water element and the fire element are more abundant than usual. The two strengthen and blend with each other. In the end, you have me, and I have you.

In the huge palace located on the top of the mountain, red and blue colors visible to the naked eye gradually appeared, and then it rose into the sky and turned into an illusory giant tree that seemed to reach straight to the sky.

Just like Violet's [Gate of Truth], the gate of the "Triple Point", the giant tree in the center of the kingdom of the God of the Wild Hunt and the Mother of Monsters, they are all the Tree of Life.

The main body is similar, only the details are slightly different.

The emerald green leaves shook down one by one, turning into secret knowledge that could be read by the gods and spilling into their hearts, pieced together into a forbidden book that only belonged to the demigods.

The golden ring in Byron's blue eyes expanded and shrank, scattered into countless small runes, and then rearranged. His face also changed from time to time, and finally he smiled and let out a long breath:

"In the past, I only knew that the 'Inverted Tree' contained the secrets related to becoming a true god. It was not until today that I saw the true face of this path.

Fortunately, we have obtained the [Water] and [Fire] priesthoods that can touch the origin of the world's mysticism.

Otherwise, without the teachings of our predecessors, we may have to spend thousands of years interacting with the origin of the world bit by bit to gather this complete knowledge of promotion to true God.

It is more difficult than those clergymen who slowly put together the "Gospel of Heaven" in the past. By that time, the opportunity was gone. "

After a pause, he revealed the core rules of promotion:

"It is said that you need to partially or fully meet the three pillars, ten source elements, four worlds, and twenty-two paths to piece together the tree of life in order to ascend to the highest [Crown] and create your own world.

So if you want to touch the Supreme, in addition to the Trinity and the four basic elemental priesthoods, it is best to have 22 children.

It's a bit difficult. "

Raised his hand and patted Violet's butt in front of him, asking her to change her posture.

The beautiful and charming Queen shook her shining silver hair, and the crystal sweat on her white back flowed all the way to the sunken waist. She turned back and spit out the pink tip of her tongue at Byron and scolded:

"I'm almost exhausted. I can't stand the twelfth incarnation in a row. You beast, quickly ask them to replace me.

Catherine and Patra are both waiting anxiously. ”

After breaking through the demigod and completely mastering the Golden Mist Palace, Violet successfully differentiated into all twelve incarnations:

Words, Kindness, Giving, Counsel, Love, Approval, Oath, Truth, Dissent, Guardian, Wisdom, Messenger, all of which are gorgeous and beautiful in their own way.

When they accidentally discovered that the [Water] and [Fire] priesthoods secretly conformed to certain rules and could pry open the origin of the world, they were naturally excited and tried their best to absorb new knowledge.

Byron relied on the Farrows Lighthouse to support him, and his physical strength was almost unlimited, but Violet was really exhausted even with twelve incarnations.

Byron leaned over and kissed the sweat off the snow-white back of his wife's [Wisdom] incarnation, and smiled apologetically:

"Haha, I was fascinated and couldn't help myself. "

At this time, the palace gate opened, and another Violet in a white gauze nightgown, and Catherine and the Queen, who were dressed similarly, one in red and one in black, walked in together.

They were all demigods, who had just bathed in the hot spring and were still covered with moisture, like peaches covered with dew, making people salivate.

"Are the children asleep?"

Byron opened his arms to the two queens and a royal lover, and the three of them kicked off their slippers and got into his arms.

Violet's [Wisdom] incarnation also turned around and pounced, remerging with the original body.

"The little ones were too excited to see their other brothers and sisters, and played until late today. We finally fell asleep after feeding them.

If it weren't for Catherine's [Time·Fourth Dimension Transformation] divine power to adjust time, none of us would have thought of coming here tonight. "

After the war in the South Continent, Cleopatra did not leave in a hurry, but took the third and fourth children of her family to live temporarily in the Old Continent.

This was not the first day they slept together.

In fact, there were more than three of them. Cleopatra had nine incarnations, Violet had twelve, and Catherine had five, which added up to 29.

Fortunately, the house was big enough, otherwise it would not be enough to live in.

So don't think that His Majesty Saint Byron did not have a large harem or any gossip on the surface, but he was really good at playing!

Byron waved his hand, and the scene in the baby room appeared in front of the four people.

Lying here were not only the third child [Sun God] Amon, who was born first, but also the fourth child [Black The Night Goddess Nut, and three other children who were about the same age as them, looked like they were over one year old.

They were the eldest daughter Victoria, the Storm Dragon King, born to Catherine, the fifth child George, the Five-Colored Dragon King, and Vivian, the Transformer Witch, born to Violet.

Victoria had black hair and blue eyes like Byron, with a cute little dragon horn on her forehead, and blue-green scales on her cheeks and shoulders.

There was a tail behind her little butt, swinging back and forth, and unconsciously wrapped around the neck of another little dragon in the crib.

The fifth child George, the Five-Colored Dragon King, who had the same father and mother as her, looked similar to her eldest sister, but the scales on his body were colorful, and he looked It's a bit... well, a show-off.

Finally, there is Violet's second daughter, [Vivian the Witch of Change], who looks most like a normal baby and inherited her mother's bright silver hair.

While she was sleeping soundly, a snot bubble grew bigger and bigger, slowly carrying her up into the air, and then it burst with a "pop" and fell back into the crib, scratching her butt and continuing to sleep.

After a while, it floated up again.

All the [Vivian] and [Dark Fairy Tale] from the clown were given to her, but she was obviously not very skilled in using them.

The common feature of these five children is that they have their own god names at birth, and they can grow into fifth-level pseudo-gods without waiting to become adults.

After all, they have Byron, the symbolic father god, Even if these children were conceived when they were pseudo-gods, they could still reshape their life essence from the source of their blood and keep up with their parents.

Even in the mythological era, this is considered the top descendant of gods. Only a very few children of the king of gods can be born as demigods.

Byron waved away the projection in front of him, and a big hand fell on the lower abdomen of Violet's body in his arms.

There was another fetal movement in her belly. It was Sebastian, the sixth child of the Lancaster royal family. He had just been pregnant for less than two days. Even with the accelerated birth of the priesthood, it was not yet time for him to be born.

"Three sons and three daughters may seem a lot, but it is still too little for the road to the seventh-level true god we are about to embark on.

A correct version in the book of 16-9!

It's about the same as doubling it."

Byron glanced at the "upside down tree" left by the Mother of Monsters on his arm. After being promoted to demigod, the emblem that was originally a little crooked has been completely straightened.

The closer one gets to the pinnacle of the extraordinary system, the more frequently the upside-down tree appears. Byron has seen this emblem in too many places.

In mysticism, the abstract "Tree of Life" is also called the upside-down tree. It is the embodiment of man's transformation from mortal things to true God, to complete himself, from disorder to order, and from animality to divinity.

The upside-down tree symbolizes "order" and "counter-entropy." By walking backward along the tree of life, you can reach the seventh-level divine realm of the top ten sources.

The [Sea of ​​Sephiroth] is the embodiment of the transition from order to disorder, taking the form of a growing tree.

It symbolizes "chaos" and "entropy increase". If you follow the tree of life, you will fall into the abyss under the "Kingdom" of the ten sources.

Since the "rudder" of human beings belongs to themselves, and the background is the humanity that anchors the self, the tree of life of the human gods looks like an upside-down tree.

The [rudder] of the old gods belongs to the deep sea. The background color is no longer anchoring the human nature of the self, but anchoring the animality and madness of the deep sea. The tree of life appears upright.

Byron once again murmured in his mind the occult knowledge he had overheard in his previous life:

"A tree without roots, its flowers are in the right direction, and it is not complete if it is separated from the yin and yang path. If you follow it, you will become a mortal, if you go against it, you will become an immortal. It is just upside down in the middle.

Although the worlds are different, the principles are the same. Even if the details are different, the overall picture should be correct.

If you go with it, you will be ordinary, if you go against it, you will be divine.

With this common truth as the foundation, if I go to other worlds, I shouldn't lose the extraordinary abilities I have now, right? "

They have just learned the ultimate secret contained in the "Inverted Tree" from the taboo knowledge they gathered together.

The Tree of Life is located in the center of the Garden of Eden above the sky. It is the path from mortals to the true God, and it is also the way God created the world from scratch.

Humanity itself symbolizes the small universe, and the tree of life symbolizes the entire universe.

The structure of this tree can be roughly divided into three pillars, ten essences, four worlds, and twenty-two paths.

If a demigod wants to become a true god, he needs to plant a tree of life in the center of the kingdom of God. According to the composition of an "inverted tree", he needs to provide the corresponding elements to turn the tree into reality.

The core is the ten source qualities:

"1. Crown; 2. Wisdom; 3. Understanding; 4. Compassion; 5. Sternness; 6. Beauty; 7. Victory; 8. Glory; 9. Foundation; 10. Kingdom."

From the kingdom of human existence, we arrive at the crown that symbolizes the original source "One" and the divine power, which is the [Crown]!

In the final analysis, this path is "all things return to oneness."

Theoretically, one can become the weakest true god by gathering together the ten essences.

The simplest and most direct way is to form a divine system.

Most of the gods in the mythical age of gods pieced together priesthoods, recruited followers, built their own divine systems, and were elevated to the throne of true gods by a group of gods.

The more parts that are put together, the more complete the tree of life will be, and the more powerful it will be when it reaches the [Crown].

Catherine also read the corresponding promotion requirements, hugged Byron's arm and frowned:

“Our Golden Triangle can serve as the three pillars, and by finding the remaining four basic elements [Earth] and [Wind], we can put together the four worlds.

But there are only four demigods in our family, and Amita only has five, which is still less than half.

Moreover, the paths of the gods are different. If they are pieced together randomly, it may seriously affect the strength after the breakthrough, right? "

Queen Marie and Violet also nodded in agreement, this matter really cannot be taken lightly.

Byron had already planned it and said with a smile:

“If we can’t make up enough on our own, don’t we still have the old gods ready-made?

Everything is three, and it will change every seven. These two together are exactly ten!

As long as I can swallow the [Seven Deadly Sins] with the seven incarnations, I can take into account the stability of three and the changes of seven, and gather the most perfect ten essences.

After I complete the big counterattack, I plan to go outside the world to hunt down the original bodies of the old gods that have not yet fully recovered! "

Without waiting for them to show worried expressions, they continued:

"Actually, I'm more worried about the last condition than the origin of the matter: the twenty-two paths.

Each path is an interaction between Sefirot and Sefirot, and a spiritual transformation.

Most of the other true gods are filled with fifth-level slave gods, but the best way is to fill them with blood descendants who have strong occult connections. "

What he didn't say was that from now on, he would be able to fight with peace of mind at the front, while his children would take care of the house in the back, and experience the fun of being an expedition general.

After hearing Byron's plan, Queen Marie, Catherine, and Violet all opened their mouths slightly:

"Are we going to have twenty-two children?"

But after being surprised, they all became eager to try, stood up again, and looked at Byron condescendingly like looking at fish belly.

There are a total of twenty-nine of them, a mere twenty-two blood descendants, and one person is not enough.

Catherine smiled half-heartedly:

"Who are you looking down on?

At least two per person! "

Queen Marie nodded vigorously:

"I told you a number, twenty-two for each person!"

Saying that, Catherine transformed from one to six, the original body, the golden dragon, the silver dragon, the bronze dragon, the brass dragon, and the red copper dragon;

Queen Marie transformed from one to ten, with the original body plus the exotic Nine Pillars of Creation clone;

Violet transformed from one to thirteen, an avatar took the "ball" away, and closed the door again with a smile.

Others giggled and swarmed up to attack Byron.

The latter laughed and shouted calmly:

"Stop!"

Byron clapped his hands, and then began to "pick peaches" diligently.

The warm wind outside the window was mixed with the fragrance of flowers. The spring of the Silver Age 1474 had arrived. All things were revived, and it was time for animals to cough.

On the other side, the other Byrons who had been heading out of the world along the Styx long before the return of the round-the-world voyage also reaped rewards.

The nine Byrons carrying the core power, one was stationed in the base camp Kingston, one was in the Three Religions Holy City on the West Coast, one was on the front line of the Sun Empire, one was in the Desert Empire, one was in the Lighthouse Federation, and one was in the Ancient Pillar.

The remaining one was responsible for maneuvering, and the last two all entered the edge of the world.

A Styx River crossed the entire edge of the world, one Byron went upstream, and the other went downstream.

Even though the distance between the two material worlds was extremely far, he relied on the authority of the [World Serpent] to take a step of 40,075.02 kilometers.

We set out last year, and today we finally discovered the souls of other worlds in the lifeless River Styx.
