Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 527 Legendary Battleship: Golden Deer!

"52 cruisers fought against 70 battleships, and they actually won?!"

"Is Saint Byron really the Messiah as told in the legend? Is he the savior destined to save mankind?!"

Around the Strait of Dover, many intelligence officers guarding on fast sailing ships were filled with tragic feelings, thinking that they were about to witness the history of the Old World being invaded and colonized by the colonists.

Until the once invincible Ghost Fleet fled in panic after suffering successive defeats in artillery battles and divine wars.

There was also the Blue Dragon King, which had restored its true appearance and had an iconic bow statue of the Dragon King on it, leading the team in pursuit. Only then did they come to their senses in disbelief.

The newly crowned [King of the Wild Hunt] truly rewrote the history of naval warfare and completely overturned past military theories.

But after a moment of excitement, endless worry filled their hearts.

"What if he leads such a fleet to attack us in the future? Can our battleship fleet stop them?"

"Military reform, we must start military reform immediately. We must follow the tail of the Wild Hunt King and cross the river. If he can do it, so can we!"

Intelligence personnel from the Kingdom of Castile, the world's largest maritime power, feel the greatest sense of crisis:
“Fortunately, Hastings does not yet have a legendary warship that can suppress an entire sea and compete with our [Holy Trinity].

Otherwise, if they challenge our position as the most powerful maritime nation, the kingdom will be in real danger as the two queens have yet to decide the winner. "

But the next moment, their eyes were blinded by the sudden rise of golden light from the heavily armed cruiser fleet.

"What it is?"

Our soldiers who were still cleaning up the battlefield and the prisoners who were being reorganized after surrendering all subconsciously turned their heads to look in that direction.

A great battle raged from morning to night. The clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the golden-red sunset and the light of the law fell on the Golden Deer at the same time.

dong dong dong.
When everyone listened carefully, they heard a strong heartbeat one after another, as if some deep-sea monster was slowly reviving.

The golden light shrouding the Golden Deer was also expanding and contracting, in exact sync with the heartbeat.

The people on board the Golden Deer felt it most clearly.

Originally, a group of people were cheering for winning the final battle to establish the country. Violet and Catherine were hugging Byron's arms and shouting and jumping.

At this moment, everyone fell silent involuntarily.

It is clear that everything on this heavy cruiser prototype seems to have been injected with vitality, the cloud-like sails, the criss-crossing cables, the golden deck, the heavy bronze cannons, the
The "Mysteries of Theseus" that Byron had snatched from the [Sailboat Collector] Morton Gray recorded the promotion ceremony that could transform a quasi-legendary warship into a legend step by step - [Challenge the Impossible]:
"Defeat the powerful enemy that others think is invincible, open up the forbidden area that others think is impossible to open up, and challenge the feat that others think is impossible to accomplish.
If one thing doesn't work, try two. If two things don't work, try three. Eventually, there will be a day when a qualitative change will be achieved and a ship spirit will be born."

The last time they successfully challenged the first large Garen, the spiritual power of the first-level holy relic-level [Golden Deer] began to sprout.

Now, they have defeated the ghost battleship fleet by using the few to defeat the many and the weak to defeat the strong, and finally met the last prerequisite.

clang!clang!clang!
The bronze bell hanging on the mainmast rang without wind, and then countless points of light rose from every component of the battleship, and then condensed into a petite human figure in front of Byron.

A dazzling golden light flashed, and a girl with slightly translucent skin landed lightly on the deck.

She looked to be about ten years old, with two golden antlers, one long and one short, on her head. She was wearing a white princess dress and had a pair of bare feet.

He was wearing a triangular captain's hat that was a little too big, which made him look funny, like a child trying hard to imitate an adult.

She used her two tender little hands to push up the huge brim of the hat, revealing a pair of azure eyes and some long black hair underneath.

Perhaps because the designer of the Golden Deer was Byron and the chief engineer was Violet, this ship spirit also exhibits the typical appearance of a Bay citizen.

There was just not much expression on that delicate little face, the size of a palm, as if she were a silent porcelain doll.

He raised his head and looked at Byron, and said in a calm voice:

"Are you my captain? Please receive the control key of the Golden Deer."

Then he opened his mouth and spit out a golden light key, which fell into Byron's open palm and quickly melted into it.

If you need to transfer ownership later, you only need to find a [craftsman] to create a special key token, and then you can transfer ownership to future generations.

A group of exiles from the Bay, led by Dagon, the Nightmare of the Abyss, successfully stole the Dragon Head Ship Valhalla because they got the key of the Harold family.

As the master-servant relationship was confirmed, the eyes of the ship spirit that called itself the Golden Deer became more lively and a little excited.

He saluted Byron and continued:

"The Three Commandments of the Ship Spirit:
First, you must not harm your master, or cause harm to your master through inaction;

Second, you must obey your master's orders, unless those orders conflict with the first commandment;

Third, without violating the first and second commandments, the ship spirit must protect its own existence.

As long as you do not violate the three major precepts, Golden Deer can meet all your requirements.

Captain, please give orders!"

Every 'ship spirit' born from human beings needs to strictly abide by the three constant commandments of the [Silver Law].

This commandment is automatically imprinted in the deepest part of the artificial soul and cannot be changed by one's own will.

The Master's orders are the meaning of their existence.

The spirit of each legendary battleship is equivalent to a fifth-level legend, and can exert 100% of its strength without any crew member.

It is a force or a country that is like a stabilizing force, and its significance is no less than the "royal title" passed down from generation to generation.

Byron stared at the little ship girl in front of him with burning eyes, as if he saw an incomparable treasure.

He stepped forward and helped her put on the big captain's hat that had slipped off again, then activated the [Ship's Log] and threw an [Echo of History] at her:
"Captain, you are both the designer and owner of the Golden Deer.

After taming her with dragon taming skills, he helped her challenge a series of impossible "Dragon Riders", and naturally had the highest level of compatibility.

Even if someone takes away the authorization key, they cannot take away your legendary warship.

But please note that the first-mover advantage is not permanent.

As the tide of source material rises, all kinds of monsters, evil spirits, elemental creatures, and ship spirits will be born more easily in the future, and those who fall behind will be beaten.

[Challenge the Impossible] will become the new destiny of this holy relic! "

At the same time, the ship spirit's legendary warship skills, which were equivalent to thaumaturgy, also appeared in the log.

[Legendary Battleship Skill: Fleet Assimilation]:
"The Golden Deer is a Schrodinger-like battleship, and everyone sees something completely different.

When operating in a team, you can share your abilities with an entire fleet, activate [Blessing of the Deep Sea] when moving, travel freely in the material world or the source sea, and lead a large fleet on long-distance raids.

During battle, you can activate [United as One] to connect an entire fleet to your own territory, greatly expanding the scope of the border maze.

The larger the number of fleets, the stronger the combat power!
And there is no limit on the types of warships in the fleet, whether it is a cruiser, battleship, or heavy cruiser.

Even future steam battleships can be perfectly adapted to it and will not become outdated.

The triggering condition is that when the captain asks: "Do you think my ship is a battleship or a cruiser?", the battleship being asked only needs to answer: "I think you look like a ***" and the ability can be shared according to its answer.

Theoretically, relying on its own legendary battleship skills, each legendary battleship is enough to suppress an entire sea.

Only by successfully building a legendary warship can a country be truly qualified to aspire for the throne of a maritime power.

The legendary battleship Holy Trinity played an indispensable role in Castile's continued dominance.

Only after Byron obtained the [Legendary Battleship Golden Hind], was it possible for him to conquer the entire North Sea and integrate the enclaves into the North Sea Empire.

In addition, the Golden Deer is of great significance to the country and the collective, and even more so to Byron.

"Divinity" is the anchor, "animality" is the sail, and "humanity" is the rudder. If you want to move fast and steadily, these three are indispensable.

[Golden Deer]'s [United Forces] in the "battleship form" is the anchor; its [Blessing of the Deep Sea] in the "cruiser form" is the sail; its [Hand of Balance] in the "heavy-armored cruiser form" is the rudder; they respectively correspond to the power from the collective, the source sea, and itself.

At the same time, the legendary ability [Fleet Assimilation] expands the collective power to the extreme. Combined with the special effect of the commerce-breaking fleet's title [Unlimited Wolf Pack], it will definitely become a nightmare for all hostile countries.

Imagine that a king wakes up and finds that the sea "territory" of Hastings suddenly extends to his doorstep. Is there anything more terrifying than this?
The entry: [Why do you carve your name on my pipe] is about to become [Why do you want to build your country on my land].

Taking both the individual and the collective into consideration, the Golden Deer is perfectly compatible with Byron's own power system, silently carrying his extraordinary path.

Moreover, he is now a [pseudo-god], using his own [divine glow] to continuously refine the Golden Deer, and can also make it his own exclusive artifact, growing with him, and that little ship girl will also grow up little by little.

It's like the level-0 relic [Sea King's Trident] that grew up with Sea King.

“The legendary Noah’s Ark, which contains an entire ecosystem, was originally just a man-made ship.

It may not be impossible for the Golden Deer to grow to the same height as it did.”

When Byron faced his relatives, although he confidently boasted that he could stop the "flood", he was just a gambler who went all in. With his wealthy family and great wealth, he would not do such a stupid thing.

Just when she was about to communicate with Jinlu to enhance their relationship, the cute little ship girl was surrounded by a group of women in the family.

Especially when Hathaway turned around and gave Byron a sidelong glance, the meaning was obvious.

——Hurry up marriage! Hurry up childbirth!

"The country has been stolen, if not now, when?

If you don't take advantage of the relative peace in the Old World now to have more children, how will you have time to have more children when the Lunar Age arrives?
Haven't you heard that when the living environment is bad, even animals will reduce their desire to reproduce?"

[King of the Wild Hunt] His Majesty Byron could only listen obediently and did not dare to refute his mother.

It was Bruch who came to report the inventory of the spoils and saved his life.

After years of being a daughter-in-law, this loyal guardian knight's eyes turned red. He couldn't suppress his excitement and said:

"Your Majesty, the Royal Navy's Channel Fleet, which has been under your command since the end of the reign of His Majesty Henry V, has all returned to your hands.

Only four ships sank in total, and all of them can continue to serve after repairs.

Ordinary soldiers have no right to choose independently, they just follow whoever their superiors follow.

As long as the pirate officers trained in the '721 Captain Fission Mode' in the past two years are placed in the seven fleets, they will become a strong army with complete combat capabilities.

And after taking off the hat of rebellion, you should not be attacked by the [Kraken] when you pass through the North Sea again."

Then several key captives were brought before Byron.

Barrett, the Star Shooter, commander of the third fleet of the quasi-legendary battleship Centaur, was a retainer of the White Rose during the time of the old Duke of York and was a core diehard.

The commander of the Fourth Fleet, [Angry Fox] Fox, was a staunch supporter of Kingmaker Warwick. There was nothing much to say, the two highest-ranking enemy generals were transformed into [Wild Hunt Servant] by Byron on the spot.

The ability requirement for the title of [Lord of the Wild Hunt] is that the upper limit of [Wild Hunt Servants] of the same level or higher than its own level is four, and the number is tripled for each lower level.

This means that there can now be twelve fourth-level [Wild Hunt Servant].

It turned out that there were only two candidates: August Habsburg and the exiled Bay People [Goddess of Love and Beauty] Freya, and there were still plenty of places left.

Archbishop Robbins of Canterbury had been besieged by Theresa and a group of fourth-level pirate warlords, and had never found a chance to escape.

He was immediately defeated when Byron used his status as King and God of Hastings to deprive the other party of his qualifications as bishop of the diocese.

One cardinal is killing, two are also killing. Since Barbotilla has been killed, there is no problem in killing Robbins.

Byron accepted his soul, transmuted blood, various extraordinary abilities of the Temple Sequence without hesitation, and also obtained the second [Bishop's Ring].

God cannot be looked at directly, God cannot be resisted, and God cannot bleed!
When God begins to bleed, everyone can see that he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. When God's halo fades, he will immediately be pulled down from the altar by countless hands.

With Byron setting the precedent, Orthodoxy will face more and more gravediggers in the future.

Of course Byron did not forget the most important thing.

When Dad returned with his spoils, a dozen ghost battleships, a group of Lancasters carrying rolling dark winds gathered on the Golden Deer.

Byron released the three Georges again.

Even though the Duke of Clarence already knew that the Lancasters on the Blue Dragon King were not completely dead, he was still almost frightened to death when he saw the familiar faces that looked murderous.

Golden George, who represented "animal nature", and Meat George, who represented "human nature", immediately knelt down and kowtowed:

"Mercy, mercy! I am just a piece of trash. I will never fight for the throne again. I really won't."

It shows that he is cowardly by nature and has a very weak ego.

Only Silver George, who represents "divinity", stands with his head held high:

"Kill if you want! Not killing is even better!

I am such a man of integrity, why don't you just kill the two of them and leave me alone?"

Obviously, George's sense of morality and shame are not strong enough.

It was the first time that everyone witnessed this scene of the "three selves" each making different decisions, and it was all a little strange.

I am very curious, if I give him a candy and a knife and let him choose, the three Georges will definitely have completely different choices, right?
Byron was not here to watch this guy make fun of him, so he clasped his hands together, and the three Georges turned into one again, lying stiffly on the deck, unable to move.

With a flick of his finger, a divine glow turned into a small red snake covered with eyes and crawled into his chest.

"Ahhhhh."

George suddenly let out a scream as if his cramps and skin were being peeled off, and then veins bulged out with his heart as the center, and dozens of bloodshot eyes popped out one after another.

Guided by his bloodline, each eye reflected the figure of a member of the House of York.

Whether it was an old man about to die, an unborn child, or an illegitimate child that they themselves didn't even know about, all were visible.

Without the protection of the Magna Carta, they were no different from ordinary aristocratic families.

In front of Byron's enhanced version of [Blood Hunt Curse], he was as weak as an ordinary person.

George, who was screaming, looked into one of the eyes and saw his wife who had just become pregnant. He mustered up his courage for the first time:

"Stop! Many people in the York family are innocent and they know nothing!"

Byron's eyes didn't waver at all, and he nodded, acknowledging that what he said was indeed correct.

“Yes, there are innocent people in every family, even children who know nothing.

But since you didn't care about the women and children in our family when you used the Kraken's Touch to massacre Lancaster, we don't need it either.

I hope that other families on the mainland can learn from your experience and draw lessons when they fight.

This is a war for the throne, and no claim even the weakest should exist.

From now on, the only bloodline eligible to inherit the throne of Hastings is Lancaster.

As for you, be careful in your next life."

Byron was about to drive the Styx that runs through the three worlds to take away all the Yorks in one go, when his Prime Minister [Death Knight] Andrew suddenly interrupted and said:
"Byron, how about we keep one York?"

After he said this, all the Lancasters around him turned their heads and looked at him.

"Ok?"

Byron couldn't help but look up and down at this ruthless uncle.

If the Virgin Mary said this, there would be no problem.

But when Andrew said it, he couldn't help but wonder if he was possessed by a demon sent down by a [Devil Lord].

You know, although Uncle Andrew died on Treasure Island, the third-level [Pharmacist] Christina who suffered in the Malta Monastery before was his wife.

And their son Tommy also died at the hands of the Kraken's Touch.

They were not yet adults at the time, and only awakened spiritually at the end of last year, and also transformed into [Death Knight].

Then Andrew continued:
"Leave a York with a higher status behind, and then use Transfiguration to change your identity and rescue him.

We also need to find a bunch of Vanguard Pilot Colonial Trading Company, Soldiers, Killer, Black Sail Port Pirates and other people to chase and intercept them. The bigger the momentum, the better.

After we rescue him seriously injured, we will ask him if there is anyone in his family who can be trusted.

Just like our [Storm Signet Ring] can block all kinds of prophecy, reading the soul may not reveal some secrets, but it will be completely different if the other party is willing to tell them out.

Once we figure out the most secret network of relationships that the York family has prepared for its comeback, we can use these connections to build a strong relationship with the York family. "

He raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck:
"Kill them all together!"

After hearing this, Byron finally put his heart back into his stomach.

Well, this is definitely not the devil, it’s my uncle who is right.

After all, the devils in hell wouldn't be able to come up with such an idea.

Andrew became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Send another group of people to quietly guard the Strait of Dover where the three York brothers died in battle. Anyone who dares to come here to pay their respects will be killed."

“After we killed someone, we found a church and buried the whole family in the church cemetery.

Then he would pretend to be a gravekeeper and guard his family's tomb for thirty years, or simply lie in the tomb and become a corpse, since undead creatures don't need food or drink anyway.

Let's see who will come to pay homage in the next thirty years. Anyone who dares to pay homage means that they have feelings for their old master, and they must all be killed!"

"After 30 years, when all generations have slowly aged and died, it can be considered completely cleaned up."

Bang bang bang.
Henry VI, Prince of Thornburg, and all the family members applauded Andrew.

Byron stretched out a hand and placed it on his uncle's skeleton shoulder, patting it vigorously, and said with great appreciation:

"What did I say, dear uncle? Being the captain of the Ghost Fleet is not a good way to make full use of your talents!
This matter is entirely left to you.

From now on, the [Star Chamber Court] Special Operations Department will also be handed over to you."

Andrew patted his chest loudly and took the order confidently.

Byron suddenly remembered that there was a loophole and called out again:
"Gus!"

[Phantom Blade] Guts immediately revealed himself, beating his chest and bowing his head.

“Go, spread the news quietly, saying that someone with inside information revealed that I, the merciful new king of Hastings, intend to pardon some of the core members of the Yorkist party.

Go and see who is in favor and who is against.
I don't need to teach you all the things that agree with it, right?"

Gus grinned, and the sharp canine teeth of the Midnight Demon flashed coldly:

"Your Majesty, rest assured, within a month at the latest, we will make their entire family commit suicide in a reasonable manner."

Then he immediately jumped onto a fast sailing ship with his Storm Cloak and headed for Kingston in advance.

Byron nodded with satisfaction, he trusted Gus to do the job.

Moreover, he had already passed on a series of signature skills of the Bald Eagle Secret Operations Department in his previous life to this natural assassin: pickup truck Iai slash, shooting himself in the back with a bullet, shooting himself in the head with three bullets, flare explosion, etc.

For example: when using a horse-drawn carriage for execution, it must be pressed forward when turning left, and the front and rear wheels must roll over at the same time, so that part of the victim's body is separated.

If it doesn't break away, go back and press it again, making sure any broken limbs fly out. This is the sign of a secret operations department!

If we don't follow the rules, people will think he died in an accident and it will not have a deterrent effect.

The essence is to let people know that it was you who did it, but without being able to find evidence.

Otherwise, many people still think that the state violence machine is vegetarian.

Then, under George's resentful gaze, Byron easily extinguished the lives of most of the York members, and felt relieved.

Looking at the sunset falling on the sea, I sighed:

"When will the cycle of revenge end? Cut the weeds at their roots and you'll have no more worries!"

Looking back at his relatives around him, he put away the coldness on his face and smiled warmly:

"Next, let's go home!"

Hearing these words, the Lancasters, who had waited for this day for too long, all had tears in their eyes.

They all said in unison:
"go home!"

"go home!"

Hatred begins at the Strait of Dover and ends here, and Lancaster and Hattings will also be reborn from here!
