Even after learning that "Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" had also come to Cruz Island, Odyss did not show up. After having dinner on the "Argo," he "traveled" to the lighthouse town that was under construction.

The workers on the construction site had already finished work, and at this time only Mandy and a few others lived here.

Previously, in order to ensure their safety, Odyss also stipulated that the first mate or second mate on duty on Cruz Island must live here.

But now that Grosell and others also live here, there is no need to worry about Mandy's safety.

Because Grosell is more than four meters tall, Odyss arranged for them a newly built workshop.

Although the conditions are a bit difficult at present, their new house is under construction, and during the day they will also go to the village opposite Lighthouse Town to help with the planning.

Moreover, in "Grosell's Travels," they had lived in the camp in that cave for a long time, so they wouldn't find the current conditions too difficult.

Odyss knocked on the door, and Mobert, who had changed into Rune-style clothes, pulled a gap in the huge workshop door.

After seeing the person outside the door clearly, he said with some surprise: "Odyss? Have you had dinner yet?"

They were enjoying dinner at this time.

"I've eaten," Odyss said as he entered the door, "I have something to talk to you about."

Everyone greeted Odyss and sat around the "heating circle."

Grosell and others were not used to modern food, so they had to cook it themselves every day. Odyss designed a cooking "heating circle" for them and provided them with enough meat and vegetables.

It's similar to the principle of the "stir-frying sand" circle in Odyss's secret base, which uses spirituality to heat at a fixed position.

Everyone sat down again, and Grosell and the others continued to eat dinner.

Odyss said to Xiatasi: "Today, a descendant of the Elf race came to this island."

Xiatasi was stunned for a moment before saying: "Does he know I'm here?"

"Not yet," Odyss said, "He will stay here for another day tomorrow. If he asks to see you, I will bring him to you.

"Whether or not to meet with him alone is up to you.

"If you want to take the initiative to chat with him, I can also arrange a time for you tomorrow."

Xiatasi took a deep breath before saying, "Thank you.

"I... I'll think about it."

Odyss nodded: "Let me tell you about his general situation first. His surname is Constantine..."

"That's a descendant of Prince Dalun!" Xiatasi was so excited that she almost dropped the chicken leg in her hand.

Odyss was stunned: "Dalun?"

"That's the Elf prince who accepted the 'Sage's' theory and joined the 'Moss Ascetic Order'." Xiatasi said, "The 'Sage' gave this prince a new name, which is Constantine."

"So that's how it is." Odyss had such a guess before, but he didn't say it. He smiled: "That Elf prince seems to be still alive, but the Elf descendant who came ashore today may not know much about Constantine's situation."

Xiatasi nodded: "I know."

She suddenly grabbed Mobert's hand next to her and said, "I hope to meet him tomorrow."

"Okay." Odyss took out a document from his bag and handed it to Longzeer: "This is information about your family's descendants. Take a look at it first. Adjust your emotions these days and decide whether or not to go to Backlund to take a look."

Longzeer excitedly dropped the wooden bowl in his hand, thanked him, and quickly took the information to read.

After chatting for a while, when everyone had finished dinner, Odyss stood up and said, "Okay, get some rest early, I won't disturb you."

...

The next day, when Odyss woke up, he changed into a more formal suit, and then used the ability of "Travel" to appear on the pier of the port town and swaggered into the restaurant for breakfast.

"Black Hand" Alva was already up and having breakfast in the restaurant.

Seeing Odyss, he immediately stood up: "'Rear Admiral of Mysteries'."

"Please sit down." Odyss smiled and said, "Although I received a letter from First Mate Bazel yesterday, I had very important things at the time and couldn't rush back."

"It's okay, it's okay." Alva immediately smiled and said, "The air here is very good, I want to stay here for a few more days."

At this time, "Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" entered the door. After seeing Odyss, he was slightly stunned, and then smiled slightly: "I thought I wouldn't be able to see you after coming all this way."

Odyss smiled and said: "Didn't I rush back immediately.

"Come on, please sit down, let's have breakfast together."

The three captains sat around a table, chatting and laughing while eating, like three old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

After breakfast, Odyss said to "Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" Hall Constantine: "Let's chat first."

Alva had no objection to this, after all, he was a "Rear Admiral," and he was just a "Great Pirate."

Odyss and Hall Constantine came to the pier, chatting while strolling forward.

"Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" said: "I didn't expect you to make such a big investment on such an island."

He saw that the construction site on the hill had already started, and it looked like there were thousands of people working at the same time.

Hall couldn't figure out why such a large construction was being carried out on such a remote island.

Odyss smiled and said: "The location here is actually very good."

However, he didn't continue this topic, but said: "Are you here to buy 'Extraordinary Machine Guns'?"

"Yes." Hall Constantine said: "If possible, it would be best to sell me a 'Portable Spirit Wave Cannon'."

"That can't be sold for the time being." Odyss said, "But I can consider selling you an 'Extraordinary Gatling Gun'."

Hall was stunned: "Extraordinary Gatling Gun?"

"Come on, I'll take you to test the gun." Odyss said readily: "There are several 'Extraordinary Gatling Guns' on Lighthouse Mountain facing the sea."

The two walked forward quickly. Hall Constantine saw that Odyss didn't use extraordinary abilities, so he didn't use extraordinary abilities either. He just chatted with Odyss and walked forward.

After only a few steps, Hall saw a tall figure in the direction of Lighthouse Mountain.

That figure was more than four meters tall, with a huge vertical pupil on his face.

"Giant!" Hall was stunned, not expecting there to be a giant here.

He had arrived very late yesterday, and Grosell and the others were already resting at that time.

Odyss nodded and smiled: "That's a friend of mine."

Because of the strengthening of eyesight by the "Navigator" sequence, Hall immediately saw that there was actually a female elf behind the giant.

He was even more surprised: "That's... an Ancient Elf!"

The current Elf race has the concept of "Ancient Elf". Their biggest feature is that they have black hair and soft lines on their faces, which are significantly different from Hall Constantine's appearance.

"Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" had seen the portrait of "High Elf" Constantine before, so he had a concept of "Ancient Elf".

Odyss said: "That's also a friend of mine."

Hall was stunned for a moment and immediately said: "Where... where did she come from?"

Odyss didn't hide it: "She was trapped in a special space and only recently returned to the real world."

"Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" was stunned for a moment, guessing that this might be an "Ancient Elf", rather than some atavistic phenomenon that caused some 'Ancient Elf' characteristics to appear, so he asked: "Can I talk to her?"

"This has to be with her consent." Odyss said, "Wait here for a while, I'll go ask her, if she doesn't agree, don't go over."

Hall took a deep breath before saying: "Okay."

This is Cruz Island after all, so of course he wouldn't mess around.

Immediately, Odyss used "Flash" to quickly come to Xiatasi's side: "Did you just see the guy who was with me?"

Xiatasi was a little strange: "Why are his ears like humans?"

The biggest feature of elves, besides their irritable personality, is their pointed ears.

This personality can still be hidden, but pointed ears cannot be hidden.

"They invented a secret technique," Odyss replied, "that can hide pointed ears."

Xiatasi nodded and said: "I'll go chat with him."

Mobert next to him said: "I'll go with you."

Odyss said: "I'll let him come over."

Saying that, he waved to "Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea", and Hall immediately flew over using "Wind Manipulation".

He was very polite to Xiatasi and said: "Hello."

"Hello." Xiatasi asked: "Are you an elf?"

"Yes." At this time, "Rear Admiral of the Deep Sea" released the secret technique of his ears, and his ears became pointed.

Odyss gestured to Bazel and the others over there, telling them not to follow, and then he said to everyone: "Let's go talk in the woods over there."

At this time, the woods around Lighthouse Mountain were no longer the wilderness they were before. Not only were there roads, but there were also several rocks in the woods where Grosell and the others often rested in the shade of the trees.

Coming to the shade of the trees, Xiatasi and Hall's conversation officially began.

Xiatasi didn't mean to let the other members leave, and everyone also wanted to hear about the recent situation of the Elf race, so they didn't leave.

Odyss was also among them. He hoped that Xiatasi and Hall would talk, so that he could learn a lot of information about the Constantine family.

夏塔丝 Shattas took a deep breath and asked, "I heard that the elves have suffered many heavy blows. How many of our people are left?"

"There are several thousand elves who have always served Prince Constantine," Hal replied.

Audis was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that there would be so many elves left.

Hal glanced at Audis and the others, but continued, "There are also some who are hiding in the depths of the Violent Sea, or in the unknown waters of the Misty Sea, and even we find it difficult to find them."

夏塔丝 Shattas asked again, "Has the prince not sent anyone to look for them?"

"He has," Hal said with a helpless smile, "But some elves don't quite support the prince's proposition and can't let go of their hatred for humans.

"The prince has told us many times that the war between the elves and humans was caused by extraordinary characteristics, not by innate hatred.

"Under the prince's leadership, we have never sought revenge against humans. We only need to be wary of the members of the Storm Church.

"Therefore, we will build our habitat in the Misty Sea, which is within the sphere of influence of the Intis Republic. The people of that country believe in the 'Eternal Blazing Sun,' and the power of the Storm Church rarely appears there."

夏塔丝 Shattas added, "After I get used to modern life, I hope to visit your habitat, is that okay?"

"Of course," Hal said, looking at Audis. He didn't know if the "Admiral of Mysteries" would let her go.

After all, she was a Sequence 5, and "Dawn of the Elements" probably wouldn't let her leave just like that.

Audis smiled and said, "If she wants to go, I will send a ship to take her there."

"This… I need to report this to my superiors," Hal said.

There was a big difference between Hal coming to pick up 夏塔丝 Shattas and Audis sending a ship to take 夏塔丝 Shattas there.

After Hal left a contact method for the messenger to 夏塔丝 Shattas and inquired about 夏塔丝 Shattas's situation, upon learning that 夏塔丝 Shattas had once served the "Calamity Queen," Hal's level of importance for this matter was further increased.

After chatting for a while, he didn't even have time to see the "Extraordinary Gatling Gun." He immediately flew back to the pier and set sail for the Misty Sea.

Only after reaching the Misty Sea could he contact his superior, Gerna Constantine.

Watching the "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" leave in a hurry without even hiding his ears, Audis smiled at 夏塔丝 Shattas and said, "Congratulations, you've found the whereabouts of the elves so quickly."

夏塔丝 Shattas, who usually had a bad temper, suddenly bowed slightly to Audis: "I want to thank you for your help."

Audis smiled and said, "It was a coincidence, we just happened to run into each other."

Then he added, "There may be someone else coming to see you later, but that person's identity is nothing special, just purely curious about giants."

Groselle laughed twice: "Then let them come, I'm not afraid of being watched."

Recently, many children on the island have been coming in groups, walking more than ten kilometers to see the giant. Groselle was already used to it.

Moreover, he probably realized that this seemed to help Audis, so he readily agreed.

After chatting for a few words, Audis went back to entertain "Black Hand" Alva, while Groselle and the others began their work for the day.

Alva did not immediately state his purpose, but proposed to visit the construction site on Lighthouse Mountain first.

Audis did not refuse and took Alva to Lighthouse Mountain.

The construction site here was still very busy. Several buildings and factories had been built and were now in the renovation stage, but only one residential building had been built. At this time, nearly half of the manpower was being used to build residential buildings.

Alva said with emotion, "Does such construction cost a lot every day?"

无一错 一首 一发 一内 一容 一 在 一一看！ (No mistakes, one song, one release, one inside, one content, one at a time!)

Audis smiled and said, "The expenses for this week seem to be around 15,000 pounds.

"Of course, the expenses I'm talking about are the money spent on the entire island."

The estimated expenses for next week will drop sharply, possibly only costing around 10,000 pounds.

Alva looked at the busy construction site and said, "I was thinking about this yesterday. Why are you putting so much effort into building such a barren island?"

"Because this place is in the gap between the major forces," Audis gave a direct answer: "When developing, no one will stare at this place.

"Once I develop, even if some people stare at this place, they won't dare to take any action."

Alva was stunned for a moment, not expecting the "Admiral of Mysteries" to have such considerations: "Are you planning to build this place into your own sphere of influence?"

Audis smiled: "This requires your help, how about it? Can a pirate conference be held here?"

Alva did not answer directly, but asked, "How is the food supply here?"

Generally, it is not a problem to eat enough on tropical islands, but pirates can't just drink water and eat bread, they want to drink wine and eat meat!

Judging from the news Alva had inquired about yesterday, the meat supply on this island was not abundant and might not be able to meet the dietary needs of so many pirates.

Audis said, "The ingredients purchased from Bayam this morning will arrive here this afternoon."

Alva was stunned again and immediately understood that the "Admiral of Mysteries" might have some extraordinary means to transport supplies efficiently and quickly.

This was something he hadn't thought of. Originally, he had planned to have the "Admiral of Mysteries" buy some live pigs and cattle in advance for use at the pirate conference.

Seeing that this was not difficult for the "Admiral of Mysteries," he no longer hid his purpose, otherwise, it would be easy to offend the "Admiral of Mysteries."

So he said, "Then there is no problem, I will first inform the 'Pirate Generals' about this matter. If they all agree, I will announce the news to the other pirates."

Audis asked, "Who are the 'Pirate Generals' who have confirmed their participation in the Pirate Conference?"

"The 'Admiral of the Stars' and the 'Vice Admiral of the Iceberg' have confirmed that they will attend this conference," Alva said: "The 'Vice Admiral of Twilight' may also come, but it is not certain yet.

"Adding you, there will be four 'Pirate Generals,' which meets the conditions for holding a pirate conference."

Audis suggested, "If the 'Vice Admiral of Twilight' doesn't come, you can try to invite the 'Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea,' he will definitely come."

Alva agreed: "Okay."

The "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" has never liked to participate in activities such as pirate conferences. Alva had invited him several times before, but the other party politely declined.

But this time should be different, because Alva met the "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" on Cruz Island. Obviously, he knows the "Admiral of Mysteries" and knows that the pirate conference is being held on Cruz Island, so perhaps the "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" will choose to attend the conference.

If the "Vice Admiral of Twilight" also comes, then there will be five "Pirate Generals" participating in this conference, which will be the most complete gathering of "Pirate Generals" ever.

Then Alva asked, "Where are you planning to hold the venue?"

"Port Town," Audis pointed to the town near the port and said, "All industries for pirates will be in this town.

"After that, only this town will receive pirates, but if pirates plan to buy real estate here, they can go to Northern Town or Plain Town to take a look."

Alva frowned: "There may be thousands or tens of thousands of pirates coming to this port town. Even if many of them will live on ships, there will still be three or four thousand people living on shore.

"It seems that the town cannot accommodate so many pirates at once, right?"

"Yes, it is currently impossible to accommodate so many pirates," Audis said: "However, the expansion plan of Port Town has also been put on the agenda.

"A large number of houses will be built in the northern part of the town, and commercial streets will also be built. Because most of them are wooden structures, with the current mobilization capacity of Cruz Island, the area of this town will expand by one to two times in at most one month."

Alva smiled: "Then there is no problem."

He glanced at the opposite side of Lighthouse Mountain: "Is that giant from the Fursac Empire?"

"No," Audis didn't explain, just said: "It is precisely because I have this friend that the logging work is going very smoothly."

"Can I, can I take a closer look?" Alva was very curious, why is there a giant here?

Audis had expected this: "Of course."

So the two quickly came to the opposite mountain. After arriving near, Alva saw two huge logging yards on the mountainside.

One of the logging yards had hundreds of workers busy. They had a clear division of labor, two people in a group using a saw, and some people using axes to trim branches, and then four or six people in a group carrying wood.

The other logging yard only had a few people. The giant Groselle waved his specially made big axe. At the moment of chopping down, the light of dawn appeared on the axe, making the axe unusually sharp.

Trees that ordinary people would take more than ten minutes to saw down, Groselle chopped down three with one axe.

Then the four-meter-tall giant picked up the trees with one hand and slightly trimmed them with an axe, and all the branches were cut off.

Groselle threw it away casually, and Alva saw that the entire log was thrown towards a female elf.

The female elf 夏塔丝 Shattas raised her hand, and a gust of hurricane blew up. The blue wind blades in the wind evenly cut the log vertically. The hurricane swept over the log, and the log scattered, already turning into strips of wood.

Suddenly, the planks in mid-air disappeared and reappeared at the feet of Mobet, the former nobleman of the Solomon Empire. He had just "stolen" the wood here.

When there were enough planks, Snowman, dressed as an ascetic, came over and opened his arms. A pure halo rippled around him, quickly evaporating the moisture in the wood.

After seven or eight seconds, the planks were dried. Longzhe'er, the former Loen soldier, loaded them onto the carriage. Once a full load was ready, he would let the "Extraordinary Horse" transport them to the construction site for use, or to the warehouse for storage.

Not to mention Alva, even Odyss, when he first saw them working together to cut wood, watched continuously for over half an hour.

It has to be said, using extraordinary abilities for labor made the whole process incredibly smooth.

The day after they emerged from the "Groselle's Travels", the five of them wanted to find something to do. For the first two days, they were moving bricks and tiles to their village.

But they only had five houses. Even if Groselle's houses were built like warehouses, they wouldn't need that many bricks and tiles, and they finished moving them in two days.

Then they thought of logging, and that's how this collaboration started. They not only completed the logging process but also processed the planks, ready for immediate use.

Alva watched for a full three minutes before exclaiming, "What a luxury, using extraordinary abilities for logging."

Moreover, he could sense that the levels of these extraordinary individuals were not low, probably around Sequence 5 or Sequence 6.

At the same time, Alva wondered in his heart: How desperate must they be for wood to have extraordinary individuals of this level doing such work?

Odyss smiled and said, "They just want to find a place to stretch their muscles."

As they were talking, the first batch of spectators arrived. Seven or eight children appeared, playing and making noise, not far from Odyss and Alva.

Then they found a place to sit down. They would "wow" when Groselle cut wood, "wow" again when Xiatasi summoned a hurricane, and then "wow" at every subsequent step.

This was also why Odyss didn't stop Groselle and the others from logging. Their working here would gradually ease the surrounding people's wariness of them and allow them to integrate into life on this island.

Now, when they rested, some workers would even go to chat with them.

After observing the giant from a distance as he wished, Alva bid farewell and roughly agreed with Odyss that the Pirate Gathering would take place in a month.

After the guests had left one after another, Odyss immediately summoned Manti and instructed her on the key construction priorities for Cruise Island moving forward.

Another large construction site was about to be opened in the port town!

For the locals, this was good news, as it meant a need for a large number of workers again.

Back in his studio, Odyss received a reply from "Iceberg Zhongjiang", and the two agreed on a time to travel to Lenburg together.

At this time, Odyss received a letter from Allen, who reported that he had discovered traces of "Rose School" members.

Odyss recalled that the "Rose School" seemed to be "transferring" the great scientist Turanni · Von · Helmholtz, also known as "Orange Light" Hillary Ang, from Bayam.

Because Klein didn't want this great scientist to fall into the hands of the "Rose School", she was blocked in Bayam by the "Rose School's" demigod.

Currently, the "Intelligence Exchange Meeting" in Bayam has been basically handed over to Allen by Odyss.

This young man who came to Odyss for refuge has grown rapidly under Odyss's training and now has the ability to preside over the "Intelligence Exchange Meeting".

After several "Intelligence Exchange Meeting" tests, there were no major mistakes, so Odyss was relieved to hand over the intelligence work in Bayam to him.

And in the past period of time, Odyss also established an "Information Exchange Center" in Bayam to train new intelligence leaders, who can be sent to the required places at any time when Odyss needs them.

At the recently concluded "Intelligence Exchange Meeting", Allen obtained intelligence that members of the "Rose School" had entered Bayam.

After obtaining this information, Odyss immediately thought that this was a good opportunity to strike at the "Rose School".

At this time, the attention of all the "Rose School" members in Bayam was focused on "Orange Light" Hillary Ang. If he acted at the right time, he could definitely kill one or two Sequence 5s of the other side.

After considering it slightly, Odyss made up his mind to take action. He gathered the main crew members and told them that they might launch some actions against the "Rose School", and asked them to use the "Teleportation Array" to go to Bayam.

Odyss, on the other hand, took Bazel with him and used "Travel" to come to Bayam first, to inquire about the specific situation from Allen.

Allen first took out two pieces of intelligence exchanged at the "Intelligence Exchange Meeting". An unnamed wild extraordinary individual noticed that several living corpses had appeared in the "Sea Breeze Hotel". The wild extraordinary individual did not know the value of this intelligence, and took this intelligence to the "Intelligence Exchange Meeting" to sell it with the intention of trying his luck, and finally sold it for 12 pounds.

Another piece of intelligence also came from a wild extraordinary individual. He discovered that a member of the "Rose School" had appeared in the "Sea Breeze Hotel".

This extraordinary individual had once witnessed the battle between the official extraordinary individuals and the "Rose School" in secret. At that time, many members of the "Rose School" escaped, and one of those who escaped was the person who entered the "Sea Breeze Hotel".

So Allen believes that the "Sea Breeze Hotel" should be a stronghold of the "Rose School" in Bayam.

After seeing these two pieces of intelligence, Odyss also had the same view, because the "Prisoner" pathway has good anti-divination abilities, and not much intelligence can be obtained by using "Astrology".

Odyss pondered for a while and said, "I'll go to the 'Sea Breeze Hotel'."

First Mate Bazel was slightly stunned before saying, "Should we wait until Rupert and the others arrive before going?"

The appearance of "Admiral of Mystery" at the "Sea Breeze Hotel" is equivalent to the signal for the start of the battle.

Odyss smiled and said, "I have a magical item that can turn me into another person."

Now is not the best time to start with the "Rose School". The best time is when the "Rose School's" demigod and "Admiral of Blood" go to besiege Klein.

So before that, Odyss had two things to do. The first was to determine the strength of the enemy in the "Sea Breeze Hotel" and the intelligence of other strongholds.

The second was to meet with Klein and learn from the conversation when he would leave Bayam.

Only after obtaining intelligence from the above two channels can he make full preparations.

If there is only one "Living Corpse" and several "Werewolves", "Lunatics" or the like as opponents, then Odyss himself will lead the crew to eliminate them.

If he can get information on other strongholds, he will report it to the official extraordinary individuals.

So after a brief preparation, Odyss took out the "Faceless Man Necklace", found a corner on the street outside, transformed into another appearance, changed his clothes, and dressed as a small vendor.

Then he took a taxi carriage and came to the "Sea Breeze Hotel".

Everything seemed normal in this hotel. The manager and waiters warmly welcomed Odyss and prepared a clean room for him.

There was nothing unusual in the room either. Odyss took off his glasses and looked around, finally discovering an abnormal flow of spirituality on the ceiling.

So Odyss put his glasses back on, then took out the "Gustav Staff" and placed it on the table, and entered the "Knowledge Moor" in a "meditative" way.
