Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 544: The people's support and Kalmar's military remonstrance (7000)!
"Ow—!"

Nearly 7000 red-hot bullets blessed by the storm enchantment were fired from both sides of the ship, and were twisted and concentrated to one side by Byron's divine domain, swirling and drilling deep into the scales and flesh of the sea monster.

The thin water elemental armor on those degraded sea monsters was instantly broken, their scales flew off, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and some mollusks were instantly riddled with holes.

Painful roars and a strong smell of burning filled the battlefield in the blink of an eye.

These hundreds of Hastings warships were all heavy cruisers or battleships drawn from the commerce-breaking fleet or the seven squadrons of the Channel Fleet. They were the prototype of the "deep-sea fleet".

After Violet restarted a series of domestic arsenals and shipyards, she refitted these warships that had experienced the war, and covered the bottom of the ship with copper instead of the previous white and black materials.

Fortunately, Edward IV and Warwick the Kingmaker had not deindustrialized for too long, so a large number of the original excellent workers and engineers could be found again and returned to work after a little training.

If this decree continues for more than ten or twenty years, there will be a gap in the inheritance of local knowledge and experience. Even if the remaining drawings can be found, the country's shipbuilding industry will definitely be ruined.

Unfortunately, nothing happened, and these battleships were now in their best combat condition ever.

"The gun crews don't need to aim. Leave it to the fire control system. Rapid fire. Another round!"

In the wind and rain, Byron was wearing a cloak and holding the steering wheel, his blue eyes were slightly empty, and he had become one with the "dragon" [Golden Deer] he had tamed.

A three-nothing little ship girl with two golden antlers on her forehead stood beside him. She adjusted her overly large triangular captain's hat, lifted her feet off the ground, and her body slowly floated up.

Countless information and data on the battlefield flowed through her eyes.

"Current speed 2 m/s, wind direction northeast, wind speed 30.6 m/s, precipitation 12 mm per hour, target distance 300 m.
Artillery range extension correction, trajectory correction, and correction parameters for each ship are as follows"

“Stop volley fire, start free fire mode, and take full advantage of your firepower.

Captains and gunners of all ships, I have marked the targets you are responsible for attacking, and I will be in charge of the fire control system."

"[Mistletoe] Adjust your foretopsail five degrees clockwise to align with the fleet formation."

After another three rounds of free shooting, the fleet was about to enter the direct attack range of the sea monster, and the soldiers on the deck could already smell the sour bad breath from the sea monster's mouth.

You can even see the meat stuck in the teeth, which is probably the sea monster colleague that was secretly eaten by them during the journey.

The ship girl's order changed accordingly:
"The entire fleet is about to activate the [Deep Sea Blessing] mode, preparing to travel through the world rifts for short-distance jumps.

Now the question is: Do you think my ship is a battleship or a cruiser?

The captains of each ship responded immediately in the communication channel:
"I see you are a heavily armed cruiser."

"I see you are a battleship."

"."

The little ship girl's voice sounded again without any fluctuations:

"[Legendary Battleship Skill: Fleet Assimilation] adjustment completed, [Deep Sea Blessing] successfully activated.

Three hundred meters from current position, ten, nine, eight, two, one, jump! "

call out--!
The fleet faded and suddenly reappeared three hundred meters away.

Then continue to repeat the initial shooting pattern.

The little ship girl who is spiritually connected with Byron at this moment is the extraordinary version of the "fire control system", "navigation system", "power system" and "command system".
It is equivalent to an ordinary person suddenly realizing the "flow state" and being able to exert his or her own strength 100% or even 200% and become a fighting master.

Even if it is not a unique legendary battleship skill, the combat effectiveness that a battleship or a fleet can exert with or without the assistance of a ship spirit will be very different.

In this case, she is a true micro-manipulation expert who can really use "machine heavyer move 5 meters to the left" as a practical tactic!
There were quite a few large sea monsters on the opposite side that were already forcing their way through the fierce artillery fire and were about to reach the fleet. When they saw the deep-sea fleet pulling away, they couldn't help but get angry.

In order to create huge waves to accelerate urgently and dive underwater to attack the bottom of the ship, the Golden Deer's [Legendary Battleship Skill: Fleet Assimilation] switched modes again.

"The Golden Deer is a Schrodinger-style ship that can share its capabilities with the entire fleet when operating in a team.

Activate [Blessing of the Deep Sea] while moving, freely travel through 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 the entire fleet to your own territory and greatly expand 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 steam battleships, which have already formed a research and development team to start technical research, can be perfectly adapted to it and will never be outdated. "

[Golden Deer] activated the "United We Stand" strategy and instantly united the strength of hundreds of warships in the entire fleet.

Before the transformation into a legendary battleship, the royal domain, which was only one hundred meters in radius, suddenly expanded twenty times, and a layer of unbreakable golden light appeared on the sea surface within two kilometers of the fleet.

The "border maze" on the periphery made the sea monster dizzy.

All sea monsters within this range are restricted by Byron's laws and find it difficult to dive into the water. The laws are far more deterrent than dragon dung potion.

This is why a number of maritime powers say that every legendary battleship is enough to suppress an entire sea with its legendary battleship skills.

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

One legendary battleship means a country is a maritime power, two means a regional hegemon, and if one owns double-digit legendary battleships, then no one in the world will dare to hinder its "free navigation" and "free trade".

At that time, my rules are the world's rules!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
In the vision of the Kalmar Union's top brass and commanders at all levels.

The sea was rolling with waves, on one side was a chaotic group of huge sea monsters, and on the other side was a golden fleet forming a perfect battle line.

Artillery fire, gun smoke, thousands of red lines of fire intertwined, blood, shrapnel, rumbling thunder, and the huge corpses of sea monsters floating in the sea.

Each scene severely shocked the nerves of the top leaders of the three countries in the Kalmar Union.

Superb speed, fierce artillery fire, terrifying organizational and control capabilities, plus the exquisite "kite tactics" that dances like a knife tip.
It is simply the most brutal art of war!

Those Taiwanese officers seemed to have seen the ship of their dreams. They were fascinated and wished they could be the ones firing in the deep-sea fleet.

Traditional Taiwanese people consider it shameful to die in bed of old age and advocate dying in battle like a hero. Even being a mere powder monkey and carrying ammunition for them is a great honor.

The church faction headed by the Cardinal Archbishop had a grim look on their faces and their teeth were grinding.

"Creak. Crack."

"King of the Wild Hunt, mind your own business!"

"If the Lamb of God sees us, how are we going to collect the tithe next month? How are we going to build a new church?"

The conservative tactic they had proposed earlier of exchanging coastal residential areas for strategic space was like a pitiful joke in front of the [King of the Wild Hunt] who took the initiative to attack and beat the sea monsters and keep the enemy out of the country.

When Cardinal Pound Elliot saw the eager expressions on the faces of the middle and lower-level officers through the legal network, especially the large number of Bay People berserkers in the army, their eyes turned red and they couldn't help but utter war cries.

Realizing that people's hearts would be scattered if this continued, he quickly gave the order:
"Switch me to the scout's perspective and put the scene back on our own port.

Don’t worry about others, the most important thing is to do your best.”

The front-line scenes in the legal network suddenly disappeared.

But how easy is it to just close your ears and listen?

There are two kinds of business in the world that Byron never does: selfless business and losing money business.

He clearly had the [Sea King's Trident] in his hand which could influence the direction of the beast tide, but he didn't use it. Instead, he chose to solve the problem in the most direct and violent way. Wasn't it just to show off his muscles to the three countries of Kalmar?
"You said you would disconnect the internet, so you disconnect it? You said you don't want to watch it, so you don't want to watch it?

Don't you know that the 'root server' is in our hands all the time?
I order with the authority of the Vice President of the Lighthouse Federation to activate the [Lighthouse Matrix] LAN around the North Sea coast, and broadcast it live to me!"

Ever since Byron successfully advanced to level five, he has become the official vice president of the Lighthouse Federation.

Without the word "honor", he became eligible to compete for the status and title of President Alexander [The Fire Thief] after his retirement.

Even as the vice president, he was given high-level authority to call upon some lighthouses within the jurisdiction.

At the command, every port city and every lighthouse around the North Sea shone brightly in the dark storm.

Bright beams of light shot up into the sky, illuminating the dark base of the low-hanging cumulonimbus clouds.

The light of the lighthouse also re-projected the scene on the front battlefield, in stereo, on a super large screen.

Now, not only the top leaders of the Kalmar Alliance could see it, but every coastal resident of Hastings, Anchor Bay, and Evernight Peninsula saw this unprecedented war between humans and monsters.

Naturally, he also saw the majestic figure of the protector of his entire territory.

Moreover, with Violet personally photographing Byron, the effect was so good that he instantly surpassed the flying beastmasters by eight streets.

Everyone looked up at the sky, their faces changing constantly. Combined with the overwhelming newspaper information from the past two days, they soon understood what was happening at their doorsteps.

"His Majesty the King of the Wild Hunt is protecting us!"

Countless strong prayers for personal safety converged on Byron through the legal network.

For a monarch, the most fundamental legitimacy of ruling a country is to provide protection and order for the country and its people and to safeguard national interests.

There are currently only two fifth-level [Kings] in the five nations of the Bay People. One is fighting for the church in a foreign country, while the other is fighting for all the people of the Bay Ethnic Group at the doorstep of the five nations.

Comparing the two, everyone has a scale in their heart.

This also allowed him to clearly see who had a higher status in the eyes of the two kings.

Perhaps a very small number of smart people guessed Byron's intention.

But the other [King] didn't even perform at all, so how can we blame the [King of the Wild Hunt] for taking the opportunity to show off?

Moreover, Byron always looked three steps ahead before taking one step.

A crown of light rose above his head like a golden sun, and a hint of relief appeared on his face, which was obscured by the light:
“I have peeled off another layer of the veil of the mastermind behind this.

Most of the lighthouses on the mainland have been replaced with the latest [Saint Byron Lens] and connected to the [Lighthouse Matrix] with the Pharos Lighthouse as the core, increasing their efficiency by at least 300% on the original basis.

The core of the "Dragon Court Collapse Plan" is to weaken and split the "Silver Law". If He Who Must Not Be Named had foreseen the invention of this thing in advance, it is impossible for him to remain indifferent.

Therefore, from this point we can guess that his ability has a lag or is limited in scope, and he is not able to see through people's hearts before their fate changes.

Just like the range of a fifth-order false god's response to prayers is limited, he is likely out of reach of the colonies, and we don't know for the time being what the upper limit of his ability is."

At this moment, a sharp neigh interrupted Byron's thoughts.

"hiss--!"

The giant sea monsters that were responsible for leading the charge of this wave of sea monsters could not stand the dilemma of having to take a beating and not being able to fight back. After dozens of rounds of concentrated fire, those large elite sea monsters were almost killed bit by bit.

After a neigh, it suddenly swung its tail and jumped out of the waves.

All the crew members in the deep-sea fleet only felt a flash of cold light before their eyes, and their vision was completely occupied by a bone-chilling silver-white.

This is actually a huge sawfish that is eighty or ninety meters long!

The tail is covered with blue dragon scales as big as a face basin, and it seems to be a dragon vein whose ancestor was torn by a giant dragon.

What's even more terrifying is that two-thirds of its body is occupied by a cold, serrated blade, and the high-speed rotating water vapor forms a water blade in its mouth that can cut through metal and stone.

With a gentle swing of the forty-meter-long sword, even the dark clouds hundreds of meters above the sea were cut open with a long crack.

It was like a skilled sea monster swordsman, transforming into a sword light that filled the sea and sky, speeding along the sea surface and launching a stab at the Golden Deer, which was the core.

No one would doubt that even a first-class battleship would be cut in half on the spot if hit by a greatsword.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

The citizens of the five countries who were watching the battle exclaimed one after another, and the timid ones had already closed their eyes and dared not watch anymore. The next moment, a heroic laugh that suppressed the roar of the sea monster came to their ears:
"Haha, good time!"

Byron touched the ground with his toes and soared into the air with a gust of wind.

He stretched out his right hand and grabbed a ray of extremely sharp and cold light from the air. The temperature of the entire battlefield suddenly dropped several degrees.

His fingers gently brushed across the sword's spine, and a line of shining rune characters appeared on it: "Reinhardt".

Byron sang word for word the epic of the Dragon Slayer and its first owner, the founder of the North Sea Empire, the Pirate Emperor, and the Blue Dragon King Reinhard:

“I have dyed my sword red with dragon’s blood;
He also threw spears to shatter meteors.

His fame for his achievements spread throughout the North Sea;

The clanging of swords and knives make the people of Taiwan all heroes.

How can I show mercy when I kill them all?
The dragon's nest was smoking and the raging fire burned half the night sky red.

We call the gates of the town blocked;
Those are piles of corpses of the victims killed by the sword!"

His chanting became louder and louder, suppressing the rainstorm and the roar of beasts. With the help of countless lighthouses, it echoed and roared over the entire North Sea.

"The Dragon Slayer Sword, that is the sword of the Pirate Emperor [Blue Dragon King] Reinhardt. It is the holy sword of the Bay People that killed the last dragon, ended the afterglow of the Dragon King's Court, and established the North Sea Empire!"

"His Majesty, the King of the Wild Hunt, has been recognized by that sword?"

"Nonsense, Your Majesty is a direct descendant of the Blue Dragon King. Shouldn't it be natural for you to shoulder the mission of reunifying the North Sea Empire?"

"Compared to the Queen of Eternal Night, whose body is already half buried in the ground, His Majesty, the King of the Wild Hunt, who is always 20 years old, is the one who is destined to be with you!"

The first-level holy relic [Dragon Slaying Sword] that Byron got from his mother-in-law was made by the pirate emperor Blue Dragon King using his own dragon-slaying sword and the dragon's fangs of the blue dragon.

Possessing the [Power of the Former King] symbolizes the legitimate royal authority of the North Sea Empire and is considered first-rate among the various extraordinary weapons in the Silver Age.

Although it seems a bit pale in comparison to the zero-level holy relic [Sword in the Stone].

If the Blue Dragon King had been able to pull out the [Sword in the Stone], he wouldn't have gone through the trouble of reforging the [Dragon Slaying Sword].

However, in terms of the symbolism of the legitimate succession to the North Sea Empire, the value is high enough.

It is equivalent to Ji Han getting the [Red Sky Sword]. Who would dare to call himself the Big Eared Thief?

The powerful military equipment, fleet and unquestionable destiny in Byron's hands are enough to cause great destructive power, but he also has personal bravery that surpasses all mortals!

Clang——!
The [Dragon Slaying Sword] in his hand suddenly exploded with a mighty ice-blue sword light, which could sting people's eyes even through the projection of the [Lighthouse Matrix].

The sharp sword light resonated with Byron's own divine aura, and the giant sword that was originally two meters long suddenly became as light as a feather.

The sword light flickered, as if merging with Byron's breathing.

This sword has been longing for the [Crown] of the North Sea Empire for more than a thousand years.

In Byron's process of re-realizing this goal, nature helped him a lot, but the severe pain of fate: "If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight" was still unavoidable.

“Ah! Die!”

Byron and the Dragon Slaying Sword suddenly became one.

The sharp sword light had no beginning or end, like a bright sun rising from the sea, carrying the indestructible will of a [king] and false god, its brilliance and brilliance filling the heaven and earth.

The next second, an icy blue light and a silver-white light collided with each other.

Byron relied on the Dragon Slaying Sword's ability to control dragon veins and confronted the sawfish head-on without showing any weakness.

It was a sharp confrontation. In the flash of cold light, a broken saw tooth on the sawfish's mouth brushed past Byron's ear, cutting a gap in his right ear from which blood flowed.

But the tip of his sword cut into the bony saw of the sawfish little by little, then faster and deeper.

Stab it--!
Amidst a series of sharp sword sounds that made everyone's teeth ache, Byron roared, and the sword light converged and flashed by.

He actually split a giant sea monster neatly in half from head to tail, and the huge corpse splattered with blood fell into the sea with a loud bang.

After the water splashed, only Byron himself stood proudly in the air with a sword.

The bloodstains on his cheeks not only did not make him look weak, but instead added a touch of the iron-blooded spirit that the people of Taiwan loved most to his overly handsome face.

Just at this moment, a ray of sunlight came through a crack in the dark clouds above his head, giving him a layer of golden color.

The picture is frozen, as if immortal.

At this time when the entire North Sea is facing the Luoyan era and is in a precarious situation.

He, [King of the Wild Hunt] Byron Lancaster, seems to be the only light above the North Sea!

When the people of the countries surrounding the North Sea saw this scene, they opened their mouths slightly. It seemed that something hot was surging in their chests, but they found it difficult to express it.

However, the network of laws and beliefs that connects everyone gives feedback that is as real as it is bright, blazing, and reverent, just like the layer of gold on Byron's body!
In the occult, a person's deeds and legends must work together to be transformed into real power.

If a media tycoon spreads false information every day through the newspapers he controls and claims to be the richest person.

Even if tens of thousands of people were deceived and believed that he was the richest man, he would not gain the corresponding legendary status and title.

Because it doesn't live up to its reputation.

Only when a person truly influences history through some event, or is about to influence history without a doubt, can he gain recognition from the law and the world.

However, if a person really accomplishes something great, he can use appropriate media means to promote a feat that was originally worth only 60 points to 80 points or even 100 points.

The performance of the five countries at this time is exactly what Byron wanted. To win people over with virtue!
From beginning to end, he never mentioned the word "virtue" once, but he displayed the words "martial virtue" to the fullest everywhere.

At this point, the giant species leading the group and the large elite sea monsters that served as the vanguard were almost all killed, and the remaining polluted and degraded sea monsters were no longer a threat.

Bathed in the golden sunlight, facing the dark sea of ​​monsters, Byron sat cross-legged on the clouds, playing the sword and singing:

"The keel hull skims over endless waves; barren peaks and lush plains;
The sea and sky are dispersing, heralding a turning point; wait for me to rise and rule the world."

But what they sang was "Call of Valhalla", which is deeply engraved in the bones of every Taiwanese citizen.

The crew of the Deep Sea Fleet immediately followed, led by my cousin [Chameleon]:
"The ship left the cold current of the fjord; jackdaws flew across my vast territory; war songs, legends, everything was destined."

Their singing fell into the ears of all the still stunned Bay residents, awakening their bloodlines that had been suppressed by the church.

The young officers from the three Kalmar countries were especially excited.

Whether it was the core members who had been approved by Count Hordaland in advance, or the lower-level reformists who had no tacit understanding, or the neutrals who knew nothing.

All were deeply moved and couldn't help singing in unison:

"The broken sails sway in the sea of ​​blood; the Shura battlefield is stained with blood."

The singing was so loud that it completely drowned out the church group's angry roars.

"Don't sing, don't sing, you have violated the Anti-Creator Consciousness Act, do you know that?!"

"Shut up, everyone!"

But no matter how loudly the church members shouted, no one paid any attention to them.

Yes, we have violated the law, and if you have the guts, kill us all.

"A corner of the shield was broken and turned into wood chips; the body was made of ordinary iron, but it was tempered into steel."

Immediately, countless Taiwanese people from the five countries sang in unison with excitement:
"As the flames rise, the bells toll long; with glory, I meet the Wild Hunt; golden light, holy sound, we are like gods!"

Byron used a resounding victory and the ancient cultural imprint of the Taiwanese people to bring the majority of people together again, consolidating blood ties and civilizational consensus.

His name resounded throughout the North Sea, and the huge noise turned into a sound wave that soared into the sky.

"King of the Wild Hunt!"

"Saint Byron!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

Byron turned to face Violet, who was holding the camera, pointed the holy sword high into the sky, and shouted to them with all his might:
"Long live the people!"

There is a saying that goes, whoever puts the people in his heart, the people will carry him on their shoulders.

Although Byron was being somewhat showy, he completely agreed with this statement.

A god who has great power himself does not need to consider other people's opinions, but the same cannot be said for the [King's Title].

Power does not come from top to bottom, but from bottom to top. When this statement was uttered, the lower and middle class base of the Kalmar Union was shaken.

【Lighthouse Matrix】Closed.

The sea monsters that were originally somewhat organized and could form groups have become a group of loose sand, and are now dispersed towards Anchor Bay, Evernight Peninsula, and Hastings.

Next, the coastal defense artillery of the coastal cities of the five Gulf countries can deal with them. The pressure is not great. It is not the right way to always rely on Byron for protection. Blood must be shed.

If we don't train our troops now, there will be rivers of blood when the Luoyan era arrives.

The only thing countries need to worry about is the dreaded "coelenteritis".

As for the vaccine, those who joined Byron will have a share, while those who are still resisting will not.

The reason why the carrot and stick tactic has been overused is because it really works.

Another week later, the third beast tide arrived.

Byron piloted the Golden Deer and led the deep-sea fleet to reappear.

This time, they also used the series of extraordinary materials they had obtained last time to create a number of rare figureheads or other equipment, making them even more powerful.

[King of the Wild Hunt] The powerful military technology that can transform war into strength is also deeply imprinted in everyone's heart.

Byron was the master of the only industrial nation that had ever existed in the world.

In this new season where we can already see signs of improvement, he is really getting stronger and stronger.

Anyone who dares to evaluate his strength based on the thinking habits of past agricultural countries will surely suffer a severe setback.

By the time the third beast tide had just ended, someone in the Kalma Alliance had been bold enough to publicly call him:

"The entire protector of the North Sea Empire!"

The church was furious and sent its minions to suppress and commit murders everywhere, and even invited the Inquisition to enter the country to persecute dissidents.

Many reformist senior military officials were also forcibly dismissed.

This violent reaction immediately made some of the hesitant reformists and neutrals no longer dare to harbor hope and made up their minds completely.

As the undercurrent of tension grew stronger, time quietly arrived at the first day of May.

The upheaval came without warning.

The young noble officers and their troops stationed in the major cities of the Kalmar Union suddenly gathered in secret, and then marched unwaveringly towards the administrative organs and cathedrals controlled by the church faction!
