The rainstorm continued.
With the approach of the Avatar Crisis, even the climate in various places was much worse. The storm in the Outer Islands had been raining for many days, and now the Frost Kingdom seemed to be the same. It was estimated that it would not stop for a day or two. Søren stood in the rainstorm and moved forward. With a loud rumbling sound, a flash of lightning crossed the sky. He leaped and landed on the roof, and then his figure flew across the night sky. His toes gently tapped on the roof and he was more than ten meters away, just like a top master of Lightness Skill.
Pa-da!
Søren's figure landed on the top of a bell tower. He looked up at the dark sky, and lightning flashed in the storm.
Dang, dang, dang.
The crisp sound spread in all directions. He sat on a high place and looked at Arendelle's palace, and then gradually fell into contemplation. Søren was a person who valued promises very much, but it was not suitable for him to see Princess Anna. Not only because the time was not right, but also because he could not have too many ties now.
Søren was in danger.
People related to him would also be in danger!
If Princess Royal had not disappeared, even the incarnation of the gods would not necessarily be a threat to her. But now the Princess Royal had mysteriously disappeared. If the relationship between Søren and Princess Anna was known, especially in the near future when Søren might go to war with the Church of the gods, the threat of Princess Anna being too close to him would increase exponentially.
She was not Gloria.
Gloria was a powerful Northern Witch and a spellcaster who was about to advance into the realm of legends.
Princess Anna was just an ordinary person.
Even if she was the successor of Arendelle and her status was equivalent to that of a queen, her own strength was still too weak.
Søren could not show up.
He might not even be able to see her again!
Søren's plan had already reached the realm of the gods, and it was best not to let the outside world know that he was too close to Princess Anna. He didn't believe that Princess Royal would die like this. Perhaps when Princess Royal returned and Princess Anna's safety was guaranteed, Søren could rest assured that she wouldn't be involved in a god-level battle.
He was a very cautious person.
Søren had always known what he would face in the future!
Thump.
He stood at the top of the clock tower and took one last look at Arendelle's palace before disappearing into the Night.
Just let everything end quietly.
She might be able to guess who did all this, but she definitely couldn't bring it to the table.
In the hotel room.
Søren spread out a roll of documents, which recorded a lot of information about the Vrykul pirates and the situation of Prince Hans who blocked the port of Arendelle. He was the successor of the Southern Isles, a coastal country in the southwest. Its wealth and strength were not as good as Arendelle, but it was equivalent to a small principality. Søren spread out a brief map of the continent. He first picked up a quill and drew a circle in Arendelle, then found the south coast and drew a circle in Port Tylon.
The Outer Islands, Port Tylon, Snake Island, Shipwreck Sea.
These four locations were connected by Søren into a line, and then he drew the deepwater port in the north. The north was actually in the northwest of the continent, and the Frost Kingdom was really north. The west coast was the principality that rebelled. This route was not of much value because it was the territory of the Dark Tide Fishmen, and the power of the pirates was mainly concentrated in the northwest.
Søren connected Shipwreck Sea with the deepwater port in the north with a line, and then from the north south to the Southern Isles.
The location of the Southern Isles was gradually approaching the South Pole.
Although the material plane was not a planet-like world, the coordinates of the North and South Poles were still a bit similar, and they were all very cold countries.
The Southern Isles was a bit like the Outer Islands, but more like the Indonesian region on Earth.
It was similar to a small continental plate country near the Pacific Ocean. It used to be part of the continent, but then there was a land deviation due to great destruction. Continuing south from the Southern Isles, there was an endless cold country. It used to be a vast continent, but now it was covered with blue ice. There weren't too many living people in this land, but there were quite a few living undead. They were an intelligent species with blue eyes that were similar to undead creatures, but lived in a different way.
They were the products of terrible disasters caused by the destruction of the Arcane Empire.
Søren had not been near the polar regions, but he had read about them.
"Shipwreck Sea, deepwater port, Southern Isles."
Soran drew a line with his pen, and then drew a line from the southern island countries, all the way along the west coast to Arendelle.
There was a slight cold light in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "The supplies can keep up. We can get supplies from the deepwater port through Gloria's authority, and then directly attack the Southern Isles from the west coast!"
Søren was definitely not a soft-hearted person.
Since Prince Hans of the Southern Isles dared to attack Arendelle, then he must pay a painful price!
Søren stared at the map in front of him.
Finally, he drew a cross near the capital of the Southern Isles, and then drew a symbol of a sword under a skull.
A trans-oceanic expedition!
The main force of the Southern Isles blocked the port of Arendelle. Søren did not believe that the Southern Isles still had enough naval fleet.
It was too far to support Arendelle from the south coast.
It was almost equivalent to crossing the continent, but attacking the Southern Isles from Shipwreck Sea was within the scope of Søren's expedition.
It was time to fight!
By the way, with this expedition, he could directly take the northwest coast of the north coast into his own territory.
Søren stood in place and pondered for a long time. Finally, he put away the map and turned to walk outside. He was now in Arendelle. If he wanted to mobilize the fleet on the south coast, he must get in touch with the wizard's means. He had not mastered the communication spell, so he needed to rely on the power of the northern witches. There were still three days before the full launch, and he had enough time to prepare.
…
Three days passed quickly.
In the hall of Snake Island, the pirate leaders under Søren's command were gathered.
"This is the order from his excellency."
The red-haired female pirate Adele Isabella looked at the others, then took out a sealed document and said in a deep voice, "The one responsible for the transmission is the Northern Witch Council! There shouldn't be any mistakes! "
The half-elf first mate was also among them.
However, he was now the leader of the Eastern Sea Route. He had gathered hundreds of warships under his command. Søren's promotion of him had made him the second leader of the pirate group.
Of course, this was not counting the young lady Vivian and the northern witch Gloria.
These two had no interest in the internal power changes of the pirates. Their centers were all in the outer islands, but their status was superior.
After all, these two were powerful spellcasters!
"What order!?"
The half-elf first mate reached out and took the document directly, then opened the seal on it. His action inadvertently made the red-haired female pirate a little dissatisfied, but she forced herself to endure. The half-elf first mate had made several contributions in a row, and his reputation among the pirates was obviously higher than hers. This behavior did not make the others present feel dissatisfied, but it made the red-haired female pirate, who used to be the second-in-command, very uncomfortable.
"Huh?"
The half-elf first mate took a quick look, then his face showed an excited and bloodthirsty smile, and said in a deep voice, "Your excellency wants us to attack the Southern Isles! … … "
He handed the document to the others, and soon all the pirate leaders present read it.
The order was simple.
Mobilize the fleets of Port Tylon, Snake Island and Shipwreck Bay to attack the Southern Isles from the West Coast route to the Deepwater Port, then get supplies from the witch council, and then cut off the route of the Southern Isles and loot and harass the coastal cities of the Southern Isles. It also named the half-elf first mate to command the dragon-headed warship to attack the capital of the Southern Isles, but it was not a real attack, but a feint to make them feel threatened. The focus of the mission was to take the opportunity to annex the West Coast and force Prince Hans to withdraw from Arendelle.
"Your excellency has issued the Pirate King's enlistment order!"
The red-haired female pirate glanced at the others and said in a deep voice, "All the pirates on the South Coast can act together. The loot obtained from the plunder does not need to be offered. All of it will be their private loot."
The South Coast had the most pirates.
Because of the natural sea route, the pirate group on the South Coast was the most active. (Eastern Sea Route, Outer Sea Route.)
Not all of these pirates were Søren's men. As the Pirate King, Søren was only the largest group of pirates. In addition, there were many large and small pirate groups on the South Coast. These pirates were equivalent to making a living in Søren's territory. Usually, they could not plunder merchant ships at will, and they had to offer a part of the loot.
Under normal circumstances, this ratio was about three to seven, and 30% of the loot had to be offered.
Now many pirates on the South Coast had turned to part-time merchants, but there were many private fights. After all, it was much faster to rob than to work hard to do business.
Søren issued the enlistment order.
It was equivalent to ordering other pirate groups to fight together in the name of the Pirate King.
All the loot belonged to them, and the name of plunder was Søren's name. In the future, if the Southern Isles wanted to retaliate, they could only go to Søren to fight.
It was impossible for them to retaliate against the small groups of pirates who went to war.
This was equivalent to an opportunity to rob openly. They were responding to the call of the Pirate King, and they did not have to bear the consequences of plundering. Most of the consequences were borne by Søren. (Revenge, suppression, pirate law, etc.)
