Extraordinary Rise: Starting Contract with the Silver Dragon Countess

Chapter 271 Queen Sister: She dares to kill you, why don’t you dare to sleep with her! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

(Thanks to the book friend "Marry a Name Sun" for the reward, thank you boss!)
There was no fight, and Cohen breathed a sigh of relief without leaving any trace.

Looking at Belmoody and Claire who came in, Cohen said in a deep voice:
"Sister Bei, there were some things I couldn't say outside just now, so let me introduce you again. This is Claire, the leader of the Tide Tribe of the Mermaids.

But don’t call her name in front of outsiders, she is actually…”

Cohen briefly introduced Claire's background to Belmoody.

“…I was able to successfully obtain the psionic core thanks to the help of Chief Claire.

The relationship between us is not what you imagine.

Chief Claire has already formed an alliance with us, the Effiin, on behalf of the Tide Tribe. We are one of them."

After speaking to Belmoody, without waiting for a reply, Cohen said to Claire:
"Chief Claire, Sister Bei is someone I respect very much. She provided me with a lot of help, especially when I was working hard in the 'Lost Land'.

Her sister, Melantha, is also a good friend of mine and one of our own.”

After that, Cohen said to the two of them:

"The situation is quite urgent now. We need to hurry and evacuate. I hope the two good sisters can each give in and avoid damaging the relationship."

Facing Cohen's burning gaze, the two were silent for a while, then stretched out their hands and shook hands at the same time.

Both of their hands were equally beautiful, like ice soul and moon soul, with a cold light in their whiteness.

Seeing the two finally shake hands and make peace, Cohen finally put his mind at ease and said with a smile:

"Sister Bei, judging from your aura, it seems that your training is going very smoothly."

Belmodi nodded lightly, and perhaps out of consideration for the presence of outsiders, she did not say much.

Cohen said:

"Sister Bei, is there anything going on in the Lost Land? I may need you to stay here for a few more days.

I need your help.”

Belmodi asked:

"What's the deal?"

Cohen said:

"I'm going to attack a group of weeping banshees in the Weeping Trench.

There are three legendary banshees inside.

In fact, the location Scarlet Island will be teleporting to is near the Weeping Trench."

Belmodi didn't ask Cohen why he wanted to attack the Weeping Trench. After a moment's thought, he nodded and said:

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."

Cohen said:

"It's okay, Sister Bei, you've been traveling for such a long time, go and rest first."

After Belmodi left, Claire stared at Cohen for a while and said:
"I bet this woman has something on you."

Cohen said unhappily:

"What is Miss Claire going to bet on?"

Claire hummed:

"If you don't believe me, forget it. She was so anxious just now, she was obviously jealous."

Cohen raised his eyebrows and shook his head:
"Sister Bei is talking about her sister, Roselanda. Don't talk nonsense."

Claire sneered:
"Just wait and see, this witch will eventually crawl onto your bedside!"

……

As the Scarlet Island main base was teleported again, the earth-shaking movement shocked many people.

The other forces that had been paying attention to this sea area were now completely convinced that the island that was here before was the main base of the Scarlet Plunderers that could be teleported.

As for the ravaged-looking building next to it, everyone quickly determined based on clues that it was the headquarters of the Dark Tide Ghost Pirates, which was once one of the three major pirate groups near the coast of the Kingdom of Ceylon!

In an instant, the entire northwest sea area was turbulent and undercurrents were surging!
Kingdom of Ceylon, Quetzaung, Naval Headquarters.

Commander Admiral Noen looked at the information sent back by the intelligence department, frowned deeply, and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he slowly spoke, his voice full of inquiry:
"White, is there any news from the Black Sail Group?

How do they view what happened some time ago?"

The Scarlet Reavers, the Black Sails, and the Dark Tide Ghosts, the three largest pirate groups in the waters near the coast of the Kingdom of Ceylon, are all more or less involved with the Navy of the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Hearing the inquiry, a young staff officer stood up and answered:

“General, there is news from Bonnie Wagner, the deputy commander of the Black Sails.

Their analysis agrees with ours, believing that the two recent spatial disturbances were traces of spatial teleportation from Scarlet Island, the main base of the Scarlet Raiders.

The target of the first transmission was also clear: the Dark Tide Ghost Pirates' headquarters."

Admiral Norn's tone became much heavier:

"That is to say, Flint Blackfang of the Scarlet Reaver had already learned the coordinates of the Dark Tide Ghost's base camp at some point.

Taking advantage of Scarlet Island's ability to teleport, they raided the Dark Tide Ghost's base.

And without alerting anyone, they broke through the sturdy base camp and killed the leader of the Dark Tide Ghost Pirates, the legendary transcendent David Moss.

After clearing out the Dark Tide Ghost's base, they left.

is that so? "

Staff Officer White nodded and said:
“Although it sounds unbelievable, based on the analysis of the traces left at the scene, it is indeed the case.

But Flint didn't do all this. It's said that the leader of the Scarlet Reavers has officially returned to take power."

Admiral Norn frowned slightly and asked:
“The leader who wears a devil mask all day?
I remember he was Flint's puppet, but now he's officially in power, is Flint willing to give him power?"

Staff Officer White shook his head and said:

"I'm not very clear on the details, but according to the intelligence officers we've planted within the Scarlet Reavers, the leader is the sole decision-maker within the entire group.

He even promulgated a "Pirate Code." It seems this captain has great ambitions and is planning to unify the pirates of the entire northwest sea area.

Admiral Norn sneered, "What wishful thinking! A bunch of stragglers. I originally kept the three of them to cause some trouble for Effiin. I never thought that this Scarlet Reaver would dare to attack the Dark Tide Ghost without even saying hello.

You are so bold! "

Staff Officer White replied in agreement:

"I think it's time to teach them a lesson."

Admiral Norn asked:

"What did the Crimson Reaver's agents say?"

Staff Officer White replied:
"The situation is still unclear. The spy is from the Crimson Predator's branch base, and he doesn't know what's happening at the main base.

Until now, most of the Scarlet Raiders' peripheral forces have no idea what the main base, Scarlet Island, is doing.

But I think if this new leader really wants to do something, it is impossible for him not to gather his own peripheral forces.

Sooner or later we will get accurate information."

Admiral Norn fell into deep thought, and then made a decision:

"Have someone closely monitor the Crimson Reaver's movements. Also, send more personnel to the Black Sail Group and tell them to report immediately if they have any news about the Crimson Reaver or their leader.

Also, notify the Operations Department to formulate a maritime bandit suppression plan. This time, we'll deploy the North Sea Fleet."

The Kingdom of Ceylon Navy has four main fleets, which are directly divided into four fleets: East, West, South and North according to their geographical location relative to the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Admiral Norn picked up the information on the table and said:
“I’m going to the palace. Your Majesty and the Prime Minister need to know about this matter. I feel that there is something unusual behind the Scarlet Reaver, and I must intervene as soon as possible.

The situation in Effiin is already very bad. If there is another mistake at sea, Ceylon will be in chaos in an instant."

Staff Officer White reminded:
"General, should we inform His Royal Highness Charles?"

The political landscape of the Kingdom of Ceylon currently looks like this:
His Majesty King Gaius Cromwell has lost interest in state affairs since the failure of his breakthrough, and most of his military and political power has been decentralized.

In terms of military affairs, the three princes with the highest succession order are responsible for checking and balancing each other, while all government affairs are handed over to the prime minister alone.

The current first heir, Prince Saxon Cromwell, has his base in the army, while the second prince, Charles Cromwell, has his base in the navy.

Orlando Cromwell, the original first in line of succession but later overtaken by the Saxons, was in charge of the Royal Guard and the police system.

Therefore, Commander Norn nominally has another superior, the Second Prince Charles.

In addition, Commander Norn is also related to Charles's mother's family by marriage, so he must report to him both publicly and privately.

Commander Norn thought for a moment and asked:
"Go and inform Secretary Marin that after I meet with His Majesty and the Prime Minister, I will go to visit His Majesty the Second Prince."

"it is good."

……

Baron Marlin Paxson, Charles Cromwell's permanent secretary and a spy personally developed by Cohen into the Military Intelligence Bureau, keenly sensed something unusual when he learned that the naval commander Admiral Norn suddenly wanted to meet with the second prince alone.

The Navy is preparing for a big move!
And his lord, Cohen, has recently been messing around with some pirate group in the northwest waters. He speculates that the Ceylon Navy's actions are most likely aimed at Cohen.

After dealing with Staff Officer White, he secretly contacted his immediate superior, Julian Singer, the station chief of Quesaon Station.

Julian looked at Baron Marin who had arrived and listened to his report and speculation.

At first, I didn't think about anything else, but was impressed that Marin was a very sensible kid. He usually looked upright with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

I didn't expect that after the rebellion, they would still spare no effort and sell out their country so well. Without waiting for his instructions, they had already begun to use their subjective initiative to gather military intelligence from the top leaders of the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Ever since Baron Marin learned the great secret from Cohen that he was a descendant of the Star Tribe, he has been obsessed with helping Cohen destroy the Kingdom of Ceylon so that he can take credit for it and ask to escape from Cohen.

Therefore, naturally, they spared no effort to complete their tasks.

Julian, letting go of his emotion, said:
"Your analysis is correct. I've dealt with Commander Norn several times before. He's an old-school soldier.

Although he is related to Charles by marriage, he never tries to curry favor with him.

Now that he has taken the initiative to request a secret meeting with Charles, it must be for official business.

The probability of military action is very high. Please write down all the intelligence and analysis you know, and I will report to the director now."

After a brief pause, Julian added:

"Don't worry, all the credit this time is yours, do a good job.

You are now considered an original shareholder. When the director pacifies the Kingdom of Ceylon in the future, you can be promoted to the rank of minister or commander."

Julian didn't know Baron Ma's true identity, nor did he know the other party's real motive for working so hard.

Baron Marin smiled bitterly, thinking that the other party was also after fame and fortune and wanted to fight for it. He didn't need to think about it. In Julian's eyes, he must have been regarded as a fame-seeker for his unwavering betrayal of the country.

He had no intention of explaining, and in response to his boss's initiative, he gratefully replied:
"Thank you very much, Station Master."

……

It has been three days since the main base of Scarlet Island was teleported to the waters near the Weeping Trench. Cohen looked at the information sent by Julian and fell into deep thought.

Marin's performance was not bad, and the intelligence he provided was very timely.

He also agreed with Marin's analysis. It should be that the navy of the Kingdom of Ceylon has noticed something wrong and is preparing to send a fleet to attack the Scarlet Plunderers in order to deter the pirates near the coast.

With the current strength of the Scarlet Plunderers, if they were to go head-to-head with a kingdom's regular naval fleet, the probability of winning would be extremely low. Even if they won, it would be a miserable victory, and they might even lose all their wealth.

Fortunately, the other party does not know the exact location of Scarlet Island, so there is still time.

This means that the speed of upgrading the ghost ship needs to be accelerated.

We must collect enough shadow-attributed top-grade magic crystals and the eyeballs of the golden-level weeping banshees as quickly as possible in the shortest possible time.

Thinking of this, Cohen used the communication array to contact Yadel.

Seeing Yadel's slim figure appear before him, Cohen felt that all his hard work these days was worth it.

Cohen first reported his recent movements to the Queen, including the specific experience of obtaining the Trident of Poseidon and the Psionic Core.

He seemed to have forgotten what the ancient Pirate King Leonard Augustus and the Sea King Octavian had asked him to keep secret.

Report your experience to the Queen.

On the one hand, it was to report that he was safe so that the queen wouldn't worry all day long.

On the other hand, it is naturally men's vanity that is at work.

He had allied himself with the shark people, contacted the mermaids, and even obtained a magic weapon and a psionic core that could upgrade the ghost ship. He had to show off in front of his lover.

Adair naturally followed Cohen's thoughts and expressed her sincere admiration and worship for Cohen, which greatly satisfied Cohen's vanity.

Adair lowered her head and flipped through the message Cohen had sent. Suddenly, something occurred to her. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Cohen with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, and asked:
"Is this mermaid leader of the Tide Tribe, Claire, beautiful?"

Cohen's face froze, and then he immediately concealed his emotions and asked dryly:
"Sister, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Yadel narrowed her eyes slightly and said softly:
"One thing I find very strange is that Claire has lived two lives. In her previous life, she was already a legendary transcendent and led a large tribe.

Why would someone of this status choose to cooperate with a pirate leader who is only at the Silver Rank? "

Cohen's eyes wandered as he said:
"Can't it be that your husband is attractive?"

Adele narrowed her eyes slightly and asked in a low voice:

"Are you hiding something from me?"

Cohen panicked. To avoid Adelle from thinking too much, he deliberately concealed the fact that the two of them were trapped in the "traitor's cage" when he talked about obtaining the Trident of Poseidon and the Psionic Core treasure.

He simply said that he had passed the trial and passed it over in one stroke. After all, the means Cohen used at that time were not very glorious, and what he said would easily cause Adele to have bad associations.

Unexpectedly, no matter how much he hid it, the clever queen sister still discovered the clue.

Faced with Adele's questioning gaze, Cohen had no choice but to confess honestly.

Tell the Queen everything that happened in the "Traitor's Cage".

After hearing this, Adele didn't show any anger or resentment on her face. Instead, she asked seriously:

"Why did you scare her? Why didn't you just sleep with her?"

Cohen was expecting Adele to scold him, but he didn't expect to hear such an answer. He looked at Adele in disbelief and said:

"Sister, what did you say?"

Adair said coldly:
"She has murderous intentions towards you. How can we not teach a woman like this a lesson?
Don't use soul contracts or runes next time. You've made her unable to take care of herself. Let's see if she dares to be so arrogant again!"

Cohen was surprised after hearing what Adair said.

It is hard to imagine that the dignified and perfect queen sister would say such a thing.

Noticing Cohen's gaze, Adele raised her eyebrows and asked:
"Why, is there something strange?"

Cohen scratched his head and replied:
"Sister, aren't you jealous?"

Adele snorted softly and said:

"She wants to kill you, so why do you still care whether I'm jealous or not?

When facing an enemy, you can use any means, especially against a woman as pure as ice and as innocent as this. Taking away her virginity is the best revenge for her!

It’s because I’m not by your side, otherwise I would force her to give it to you…”

(⊙o⊙)...

Cohen expressed shock.

The Queen's words became more and more outrageous.

Looking at the indignant Queen, Cohen really wanted to ask, "Can I make up for it now?"

But for the sake of his future happiness, Cohen wisely did not ask.

After venting her anger, Adele said to Cohen:
"Don't be soft-hearted when you encounter something like this in the future, okay?"

Cohen quickly replied:

"Sister, I understand. Don't be angry. Claire has been conquered by me now.

She also promised to authorize me to use the Trident of Poseidon, and we will be allies from now on."

Adele waved her hand and said:

"Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. It's a rare opportunity for us to meet, so don't spoil your mood.

Come on, don’t you have something else to tell me?”

Cohen then got down to business:

"Sister, I need a large amount of top-grade shadow magic crystals, the sooner the better.

We need it to upgrade the ghost ship. Julian from the Kingdom of Ceylon just sent back information that the Ceylon Navy might be about to attack us."

Adele immediately said:
"Okay, I'll arrange this in a moment."

Cohen thought for a moment and said:

"Flint alone is not enough to train the pirate group.

In order to train the pirates into a regular army, we need a few capable and experienced naval officers. Sister, you can pick a few from home."

"it is good."

"Well, that's about it."

Adele asked:
"Didn't you just say that we were going to attack the Weeping Banshees soon? Do you have enough manpower?

The other side has three legendary banshees, they are not easy to deal with, right? Do you want Prince Haoge to help you?"

Cohen said:

"No, no, Her Excellency the Sequence Master has also been in the northwest sea area recently. I called her over to help."

Adele raised her eyebrows slightly:
"The Lord of Sequences, that's the sister of your little lover named Rosalina, right?"

Cohen looked embarrassed and nodded stammeringly.

Adele waved her hand:

"Okay, if you really want to be jealous and angry, you'll probably never be able to stop being jealous and angry in this life.

Take good care of yourself. When you are done with this busy period, please come back to Aifeiyin. I have something I want to discuss with you."

Cohen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked:
"Sister, what's the matter? Can't you tell me now?"

Adair said:
"It's not urgent. I'll wait until you come back so you don't get distracted if you find out."

Cohen gave up and spent some time with Adele before ending the call.

Cohen checked the time and saw it was still early, so he notified Mr. Modo, Flint and the three deputy captains to come to a meeting to discuss the battle plan for the Weeping Trench.

Of course, he also sent a message to Belmoody and Claire.

These two are also the main forces in attacking the Weeping Banshee.

The group arrived at the conference room. Unknowingly, the Scarlet Plunderers now had four legendary transcendents in charge, which made Flint and others feel unreal.

Soon this sense of unreality turned into awe for Cohen.

All these changes were brought about after the leader came to power.

Cohen coughed lightly and said:

"Alright, everyone, let's discuss how to quickly conquer this group of banshees at the lowest cost."

Flint spoke first and said:

"In terms of high-level combat power, the four of us transcendents should have the upper hand against the three legendary banshees on the opposite side.

What's more, the combat power of Her Excellency the Witch and Mr. Modo is even stronger than that of the average Legendary level..."

Cohen interrupted Flint and said:
“It’s not four, it’s five.

I have contacted the chief of the Shark Tribe, Druk, and he will send a legendary warrior to join the battle."

Hearing this, Flint and others became even more excited. Five against three, the high-end combat power was definitely a crushing victory.

Deputy Head Beckman said:

"Aside from the three legendary banshees, the Weeping Sound Trench's greatest strength is its strategic geographical location.

It takes a lot of energy just to go down into a trench that is more than 30,000 meters deep. Of course, the most dangerous thing about the Weeping Trench are the caves with organ-like structures.

The Banshees' talents combined with these caves will form a solid sonic resonance wall. In addition to the sonic attacks it emits that will invade the crew's willpower and soul, the sonic resonance wall's defensive capabilities are also terrifying.

If we don’t prepare for this, ordinary crew members will suffer heavy losses.”

Cohen nodded thoughtfully and asked:
"What is the principle of this acoustic resonance wall?
Can we destroy it in advance?"

Beckman shook his head and said:

"I'm not sure about that. I heard that the banshees possess some kind of magical item that can be used by many banshees together to form a sonic resonance wall."

Claire's voice slowly rang out:

"It's not a magic item, but a kind of domain power!"
