Pirate Kingship

Pyrenees Empire, the main hall of the Vientiane Palace.

Swish——!

Queen [Unsullied] Saint Isabella tore the Lighthouse Daily in her hand.

Looking at the cheap bagasse paper scattered on the ground, her face was extremely ugly, and she chewed a word repeatedly in her mouth:

"The sun never sets, the sun never sets"

On the third day after the sunlight of the "First Empire Never Sets" changed, causing the extraordinary people of various countries to riot and spy.

The Lighthouse Federation promptly issued a new issue of the "Lighthouse Daily", using a full page to publish an interview with Byron.

It detailed a series of achievements since he started his voyage around the world to the east and discovered another new continent in the Storm Ocean.

It also let everyone in the continent know the emergence of the national title [First Empire Never Sets] and how much benefit this national title brought to the North Sea Empire.

The scope of influence of this information is too large, and it can be directly read by finding a high-sequence prophet to read the collective subconscious. Since it has entered the counterattack stage, Byron is not prepared to keep it secret.

Just like the three laws of the East Continent, they are openly displayed to the outside world.

You can also say: "Not very advanced, but can be displayed."

This time I changed my attack and defense again!

Seeing the news that the North Sea Empire officially revealed, the Orthodox side, who were clearly against them, were all jealous and their eyes were red.

Especially the Pyrenees Empire, which was once the most powerful country in the sea.

They have always been the pioneers of the Age of Exploration, and they have a dream of being the first to reach the end of the world and occupy the unowned land of the world.

Now they are just one step behind the North Sea Empire and have missed the title of the world's first country.

Isabella looked at another application for a circumnavigation submitted by the adventurer Fernando de Magellan, which had just been approved with the word "approved". She was almost furious:

"From this sea to that sea, from the great river to the end of the earth, the sun does not wait to set on one end of the country before it rises on the other.

This is the glory that only the Messiah King can have in the "Gospel of Creation"!

Why is it Saint Byron who gets this title? Why not Saint Isabella? Why not my country? It's just one step away!"

I don't know why, Isabella always subconsciously feels that the title of "The First Empire Where the Sun Never Sets" should belong to the Pyrenees Empire.

When she thought of this name, she felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.

Some time ago, she relied on the Pope's Meridian and thought that she had taken a huge advantage by obtaining the right to explore the southern continent.

But since she learned that the "triangular trade" was lucrative and she was blocked in her homeland by the anti-trade fleet, she has begun to regret it faintly.

Today, the pirate emperor Saint Byron discovered the New World again and was honored as the [Messiah King] by countless people.

She couldn't help but complain to the Pope in her heart, imagining that if she had been assigned to the east of the Papal Meridian, would she be the one toasting to celebrate now?

So much so that the white and flawless cheeks of the [Innocent] began to turn slightly blue, and she murmured:

"Mine, all mine!"

Her emotions fluctuated too much, and her stomach, which was about to give birth, suddenly ached.

She hurriedly cast the [Holy Prayer] to protect her pregnancy, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.

It was obvious that the consequences of inbreeding had already been revealed, with abortion rates and neonatal mortality rates increasing sharply, and offspring were more likely to have intellectual disabilities and various genetic diseases.

Her cousin and husband, King Fernando II of Aragon, who was standing beside her, supported her and handed her a bottle of scarlet [Blood Healing Potion].

Isabella drank it in one gulp, and the abdominal pain slowly subsided.

She noticed her husband's concerned look and forced a smile at him:

"Fernando, the blood healing potion you found is very useful, and the hospital-sequence pharmacists you raised are not in vain.

Our child will surely be born smoothly and become the most wise monarch in the history of the Pyrenees Peninsula. What we have to do is to hand over the most powerful country to him."

Fernando II held his cousin's glowing white little hand, his eyes full of love and affection.

But when he heard the pharmacist in the other party's mouth, a trace of unnaturalness appeared on his face, and he laughed subconsciously:

"Hahahaha. This is natural."

The title of the King of Aragon is called [Orthodox Believer].

He is undoubtedly a very devout believer who has not learned any taboo knowledge and black witchcraft. He is much better than the popes and saints of the church.

As a mortal with an alarming mortality rate in this era, raising a group of hospital-sequence pharmacists because of fear of death is certainly nothing.

[Blood healing potion] is the core ability of pharmacists.

Under the continuous suppression of the church, although doctors do not know the specific principles, they can use the blood of other healthy humans to make potions to cure some patients.

They can even use the blood of powerful knights, wise men and even monsters to make temporary enhancement potions to enhance certain specific abilities of their own side. It is a very safe and effective medical method and will not violate the taboos of the church.

But the key is that he had other titles before he got married, such as: [Golden Fly Catcher], [Little Prince of the Ball], etc.

Rumor has it that the king has been taking blood therapy potions prepared by Pyrenees Golden Flies all year round to enhance male ability.

It is also vigorously promoted among the aristocracy, making this niche drug popular for a while.

Together with another drug, "Mummy Powder", they became the twin pillars of male health products on the Silver Continent, and were once sold out.

They not only ate it, but also ate it in style and in a variety of ways:

"The golden flies produced on the Pyrenees Peninsula are the most effective, and the mummy powder brought back from the Desert Empire of the East Continent is better than that of the South Continent."

Vincent, the guardian knight [Royal Hound] assigned to Catherine by Edward IV, once tried to use a magic potion [Witch Juice] to make her fall in love with him.

One of the raw materials is "Pyrenees Golden Flies", and its scientific name is: "Citrus odoratus".

Put a quarter of basil leaves in a glass bottle, add a few drops of musk, a pinch of earth coral, Citrus odoratus, brown sugar, cinnamon and three freshly picked rainbow rose petals.

Fill it with strong liquor and place it in a place where there is no sunlight. Hold a love prayer ceremony for seven consecutive days to finally make a love potion.

However, although the effect is very good, it also has side effects. Long-term use of this drug will cause a series of symptoms such as edema, hematuria, abdominal pain, etc.

Regardless of whether Fernando II relied on the golden fly to remain vigorous, he had all these symptoms!

It is said that official history may not be correct enough, but unofficial history must be wild enough.

The [historians] in the Pyrenees Empire have long secretly given this imperial husband a heavy stroke.

Of course, it is true that he is a playboy by nature, and it is also true that he and Isabella are very affectionate.

[The Unsullied] do not have any psychological cleanliness, and generously forgave the mistakes that every queen's husband would make.

As long as he does not bring syphilis back, it will be fine.

The most important thing is that although her husband is very playboy and can't control his belt, he is very good at fighting!

When he was the king of Aragon, he made a name for himself as the overlord of the East Sea, and helped her win the war for the throne. After that, he cleared the remaining forces of the puppet king and suppressed the entire Pyrenees Peninsula with an iron-blooded wrist.

As a fifth-rank legendary [Inquisition Knight] of the Temple Sequence, he also organized the lay priests of the Pyrenees Empire and established the Empire's exclusive Inquisition to deal with those hateful Protestants.

Among all the member states of the Orthodox Alliance, no one killed more cruelly than them, and no one was more pious than them.

"Isabella, there is one more thing I want to tell you"

Fernando II helped his wife sit back on the throne, hesitated for a moment and told her a bad news that was not published in the newspaper but reported by the Empire's intelligence department.

In stark contrast to the "First Empire on which the Sun Never Sets" that seeks welfare for all its people, the Papal Basilica of St. Peter sent elite members of the Inquisition to various countries on the continent under its control.

Claim: It is not only innocent to expose and kill the entire family of Protestants, but you can also take away half of their property.

At this time, the entire Silver Continent was already a bloody storm.

In just a few days, about 70,000 Protestants and their families were killed.

The key issue is that the Protestants have no labels on their faces. When the Orthodox believers are killing to their heart's content, just like the witch hunt in the past, they are free to judge. As long as they are suspected, they will die.

Religious affairs officials even deliberately seek opportunities to retaliate against the troublemakers who have offended them in the past, even their colleagues and superiors, resulting in countless unjust cases.

Protestants have become rats crossing the street, and some Orthodox believers are also in danger.

In contrast, one side has fallen into hell because of religious persecution, while the other side has a bright future and has become the land of hope and spiritual homeland for mankind.

The Protestants who were protected by Byron did not hesitate to praise him: "Human Emperor", "Sun King", "Messiah King", "Only Sun".

The upper and middle classes in foreign countries who have some connections are fleeing to the control area of ​​the North Sea Empire in groups, wanting to become citizens of the First Empire on which the sun never sets.

Even washing cups in a tavern is better than staying in "hell".

In addition, the 20% improvement speed of the Lighthouse Sequence and the Tower Sequence has also attracted many relevant extraordinary people to submit naturalization applications to the immigration department.

It may not be easy to enter the North Sea Empire, where the immigration policy is strict and only outstanding talents from various industries are accepted.

But some smart people have come up with a solution. We can first find a way to settle in the colonies, and when the administrative divisions return, can't we become imperial citizens naturally?

Even if we can't wait in a short time, we can first obtain temporary residence rights, and the next generation can become glorious imperial citizens through academic promotion, military enlistment and other channels.

Those who have no moral integrity will directly spend money to marry imperial citizens and become naturalized in disguise.

Many old widowers and prostitutes in the North Sea Empire who couldn't get married in the past have suddenly become popular. At this time, if anyone dares to say bad things about the emperor, they will fight with the blasphemer first.

Byron also unintentionally completed a small part of the task of banning those bed workers.

"Cousin, everything we do is for the church and the Creator. All sacrifices are worthwhile and correct.

Whether it's the people fleeing or breaking the blockade of the commerce fleet, as long as we destroy the North Sea Empire and kill Saint Byron, all problems will be fundamentally solved."

Isabella took off the key seal ring of a legendary warship from her finger and handed it to Fernando II, and told him:

"This time you will personally command our invincible fleet, and bring [Sailboat Collector] Morton Gray and Kingdom Guardian [Element Lord] Nicholas.

I will ask the Pope to unlock the world's most powerful legendary battleship [Holy Trinity].

This warship was sealed during the throne war with the Puppet King. This time the war against the Protestant Alliance is also time for the mainland countries to recall the fear of being dominated by the most powerful legendary warship.

You go and take back everything that is rightfully ours. "

The latter took the seal ring and nodded solemnly:

"Don't worry, leave everything to me.

With the help of the [Holy Trinity], an invincible legendary battleship that can interfere with time, I will definitely help you bring Byron Lancaster's head back and decorate our court of justice. "

The news of the birth of the First Empire on which the Sun Never Sets prompted the Orthodox Alliance to further speed up its fleet assembly.

But Byron's preemptive strike came faster than the attack fleet!

The target was not the thugs raised by the church, but the entire Orthodox Church, hitting the vital point with one punch.

A group of saints from St. Peter's Basilica gathered together again to deliver to the Pope a scholarly treatise that had just been copied from the Public Library of the Tower Sequence.

The title is: "On the origin of species based on natural selection, that is, the preservation of superior races in the struggle for survival"!

Everyone's expression was even uglier than that of Isabella who just missed out on the national title.

"His Majesty the Pope, come and see this blasphemy."

"They are blaspheming!

The first author [naturalist] Charles and the second author Byron Lancaster are both the worst blasphemers ever! They must be completely purified! "

Pope Francis IV’s eyes fell on the bagasse paper, and his brows jumped as soon as he saw the first line of words.

“God did not create man, but man created God!

The fundamental operating logic of this world is not divine creation, but: natural selection and survival of the fittest.”

There is no doubt that Byron finally used the trump card that he had been preparing for the church for a long time.

Invited out the captain of the Beagle [naturalist] Charles (Chapter 417), who was abandoned by him in the southern continent for biological research.

After more than a year of research on biological evolution, this pioneer of biology has completed his epoch-making work, which is enough to challenge Orthodoxy.

Byron's Protestantism does not require "literal interpretation". Everyone can have their own understanding of the "Gospel of Creation" and even directly communicate with the object of belief. This is a purely spiritual conversion and has nothing to do with secular material things.

Orthodoxy, on the other hand, wants to be the bridge between man and God. It must control both the spirit and the body.

Then they must use an official stance to explain why the "one-step creationism" seriously contradicts the "evolutionary theory" that is step-by-step and supported by abundant evidence?

In other words, using "unchangability" to deny the most fundamental "change" in this world!

In a world without demons, the church might be able to remain silent and not comment on such subversive scientific discoveries.

But in this extraordinary world, the hearts of countless people are the greatest extraordinary power! The spiritual undercurrent formed by countless doubts is the most powerful forbidden curse!

Byron has already built a dam in the collective subconscious by relying on his own personality and [human] priesthood. As soon as the torrent is filled, he will dig the grave of Orthodoxy!

At this time, not only in the City of Seven Hills of the Church, "The Theory of Evolution" is spreading at the speed of light along the anchor chain of every tower sequence transcendent.

Among those knowledgeable groups of extraordinary beings, it was like dropping a large-yield mushroom bomb.

Orthodox supporters analyzed Charles's paper word for word, trying to find loopholes and flaws, but they were defeated in the face of various detailed biological evidence from the Dique Islands.

No one can deny that "change" is the decisive force in biological evolution.

Bang!

The Pope relied on his demigod-level power to read the entire paper in just a few minutes, without finding any loopholes. With a fist of his right hand, the entire paper was turned into ashes.

Two days ago, Saint Matthew lost his life to Iris and lost the Holy Ring and the Spear of Longinus, which had already made all the saints in the Divine Council furious.

What they see now is not a biological paper, but a naked declaration of war!

The pope’s old voice echoed like thunder in the hall:

"heresy!

I order: Abandon all messy tactics and use absolute violence to crush them from the front into scum in the shortest possible time.

Kill all the heretics! Destroy their country! "

"As commanded, Your Majesty."

In the hall, shadows swayed under the feet of a pope and six living saints, each of them spreading three or two pairs of wings.

In the shadow of the Pope, the shadow of the six-winged fallen angel opened his eyes slightly, and two lines of blood flowed out.

Looking at these so-called "saints" and "priests" who want to drag the entire Silver Continent into the abyss for their own selfish purposes, the corners of their mouths cracked in a strange arc.

The papal order was immediately and strictly implemented.

The main forces of the Orthodox Alliance: the Habsburg royal family of the Holy Silver Empire, the maritime hegemon Pyrenees Empire, the Sea Coachman Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Golden Power Zionist Party of the Southern Continent.

Among them, the Jinquan Restoration Party in the southern continent had its route to the north blocked by the enemy fleet. Their naval fleet was not too strong to begin with and could be ignored.

However, it used the strong financial resources accumulated over the years to exert its cash capabilities and provide the coalition forces with generous logistical supplies.

The other three companies split into three roads and drove towards Beihai at full speed.

One is the nearest Kingdom of the Netherlands, led by the Kingdom's Protector Cromwell;

One is the strongest Pyrenean Empire Invincible Fleet, commanded by the Royal Husband King Ferdinand II of Aragon;

The last is the Royal Navy of the Holy Silver Empire, led by Frederick III's younger brother, the former Archduke Ferdinand, now the [Lonely King].

This is also an acquaintance.

It was this brother appointed by Frederick III to succeed the throne of the Electorate of the Palatinate, one of the seven electors, that triggered the religious war.

Ferdinand was a fanatical traditionalist. He persecuted the Protestants in the Electorate of the Palatinate on a large scale as soon as he took office. Now there are bloody scenes everywhere, and he has done it once before.

After that, the window throwing incident became the fuse of the entire "religious war".

Although he was driven away by the Protestant princes, the various states suffered heavy losses now, and it is certainly not difficult to arrange another king title.

As for why it is the [Lonely King]?

It is said that one day, he once jokingly asked his valet: "Do you think there are men with two testicles in this world? It must be very interesting."

Uh.

Then these valet were dragged down by a colleague who was outspoken, and nothing happened.

The official has specifically refuted the rumor that there is no connection between [The Lonely King] and the faint sadness.

Anyway, regardless of whether there is a connection or not, many people say that men born with this condition in history are particularly ruthless in war, and Ferdinand is the same.

I just don't know if Frederick III sent this brother out again for this reason.

In addition, although the land of the Holy Silver Empire borders the Eternal Night Peninsula, it did not send too many ground troops.

It only sent a number of elite scouts, mainly extraordinary people, to start harassment behind enemy lines, leaving the local Bay people's military power unable to take care of themselves.

In addition to the fact that the Protestant princes were entrenched in the north and were still fighting with them, the key was that the Eternal Night Peninsula had already snowed heavily at the end of October, turning on the quick-freeze mode.

If a large force enters and crashes into the "Winter is Coming" dungeon, they will be frozen into ice sculptures before those groups of berserkers and frost wolf knights kill them.

After receiving the Pope's order, the goal of the joint fleet is very clear. The large fleet is heading straight for the core of the North Sea Empire-Kingston, the imperial capital of the Channel Islands!

Two fronts, one hidden and one visible, are prepared to use the Strait of Dover on the edge of the North Sea as the main battlefield to win the naval dungeon "Raging Sea".

As long as they can kill all the navies of a maritime power country, they will no longer have any resistance and will become a turtle in a jar.

However, Byron was not surprised but happy after receiving the intelligence.

"Mr. Charles did a good job."

The series of reactions of the Orthodox Alliance above were exactly the original intention of him to issue "Evolution Theory" in advance and anger those war laymen in the upper echelons of the Council of God.

The most fearful thing about anything is that laymen lead experts.

Byron never underestimates those kings and generals with a good reputation.

If the Pope gave them full authority to fight this battle, they would at least not fight too badly with their numerical advantage.

The ten dreadnoughts alone could not take care of the scattered attacking enemies, so the more enemies they faced in their first appearance, the better.

However, once the civil officials in the rear began to show off their skills, they would give the generals a special battle formation before the battle.

And they sighed: "The soldiers on the front line only need to devote themselves to the battlefield and fight hard. We in the rear have a lot to consider."

Byron could almost put half of his heart back in his stomach.

He only needed to consider the most appropriate time to put the dreadnought fleet on the battlefield and fight the dog behind the door!
