Huggins, the Octopus Ghost, stood on the highest lighthouse at the dock and looked down at the entire Beluga Harbor. Although he did not make a move from the beginning to the end, the strange thing was that at this moment, his body was filled with a thick smell of blood, which was almost nauseating.
Huggins stood quietly like a statue. When the shouts and screams in the city gradually faded away, he turned his head and asked Hymer, who was standing beside him.
"How's it going?"
His tone was calm, as if what he had just seen was not a massacre but just an ordinary drama.
"Lord Huggins, after our direct subordinates blocked all the roads out of the city, the Church of the Iron Church and the Iron Church's Iron Church was destroyed. Except for a team of Iron Wall Knights from the Church who broke through the roadblock and escorted a group of clergy and civilians out, there is no one alive in the city! "
Hymer's eyes were filled with infinite fanaticism. He was trembling at the amazing power of the Pirate King. One of the top trade ports in the kingdom, including a big city with more than 100,000 people, was slaughtered just like that!
But then Hymer looked a little indignant. "My Lord, are we really going to give all the wealth in the city to those guys who took advantage of the situation? That's an astronomical figure! "
After witnessing it with his own eyes, Hymer certainly could not remain indifferent in the face of the wealth of the entire city.
"Oh, hehe. We've got the most valuable thing. What's wrong with giving the hyenas some scraps? As long as our plan can be realized, worldly wealth is nothing!
The position of Pirate King of the Black Sea can no longer accommodate my ambition. The peak of Transcendent is my future!
Hymer, as my student, I'm looking forward to your growth! Oh, hehe … "
Huggins chuckled and stroked the underwater volcanic rock statue of the Mother of Sea Monsters, Erketo, in his hand.
However, the statue, which was supposed to be black, had turned into an ominous blood-red color, as if blood would drip down if he held it gently. It made the statue, which looked like a beautiful girl, look particularly hideous and terrifying.
Holding the statue in his hand, the Pirate King seemed to have grasped his future!
"Did I summon these scumbags to Beluga Harbor just to let them make a fortune?
Flattening it with absolute power, sacrificing all the lives in the city to provide the Mother of Sea Monsters with boundless power. Soon, he would have an army of sea monsters under his command.
These scumbags who thought that they had gotten a great deal were just bait to distract the attention of the authorities. Be careful that you don't have the life to spend all the wealth in this city! '
Hymer, who was beside him, heard the pirate king's words, and there was a hint in his words. His heart was burning.
Why did he defect from the navy and join the ranks of pirates? Wasn't it all for this? The Pirate King of the Black Sea, Haymer Raymond. Aha, ahahahahaha …
He lowered his head even more, as if he was worshipping a god.
"My Lord, I will do my best for your cause!"
.....
In an extremely short period of time.
The earth-shattering news spread like a whirlwind, spreading to many countries on the eastern shore of the Black Sea within a short period of time.
"Audacious!!!"
"Sanction! We must use the determination of iron and fire to extinguish the arrogance of these pirates! "
"God's people do not deserve this!"
The appalling massacre came to an end, and the pirate coalition swept away the wealth of the entire city and left.
The executioner's knife that was raised high finally fell. The politicians, navies, and churches of various countries who did not "win the prize" breathed a sigh of relief. What was left was only uncontrollable anger!
How long had it been?
Other than the "calamity" of the descent of the evil god, since when could scumbags like pirates bully a huge kingdom in the civilized world?
Not to mention such a crazy act of massacring an entire city!
At that time, many countries along the Black Sea had detected the movements of the Pirate King, "Octopus Ghost" Huggins. After all, his fleet had sailed through the territorial waters of many countries with great fanfare. It was impossible for them to be blind.
In the face of the huge pirate coalition, none of the navies chose to attack out of caution. However, the "Octopus Ghost" dared to launch a "war" to attack the civilized countries. This was far beyond their expectations.
That's right, Huggins' actions were a blatant declaration of war in the eyes of the various countries!
However, at this moment.
All the countries were waiting to see the reaction of the Titled Knight of the Ilya Kingdom, "Tempest", who was known for his bad temper when he was young. The reaction of the Guardian of the Kingdom towards the pirates was related to the strategy of the various major forces towards the pirates and … their attitude towards the Ilya Kingdom.
As an open port city, the "Beluga Harbor" massacre had basically killed citizens of various countries.
However, the Ilya Kingdom was the direct victim of the "benefits".
If the Guardian of the Kingdom, who was rumored to have entered his twilight years and was rapidly weakening, was unable to give a strong counterattack to the pirates, the deterrence that he had accumulated over hundreds of years might quickly collapse.
When that time came, in addition to the various factions within the country, many countries outside of the region, and even the so-called "Tulip" allies, might be ready to make a move.
The impact of this incident would be infinitely magnified from a simple "pirate attack"!
The time to test the Ilya Royal Family had arrived.
"Your Majesty, what should we do? Is there no reaction at all? Lord Titled Knight, please make a move! "
Crown Prince Yerun Ilya, who was also the "right hand of the King" and the "ruler of the kingdom", was furious. The moment he received the news, he barged into the palace and questioned his father.
If he still did not make a move, the "weak" Ilya Kingdom would become a huge joke among the various countries.
However, the Titled Knight "Tempest Tide" of the Kingdom was, after all, an ancestor of the royal family many generations ago. Family affection had long been unable to affect that lord's judgment. Only the king's father could make a formal request.
Sitting on the throne, the old king, who was holding a golden scepter, looked down at his young and impulsive son and closed his eyes again.
"If the Guardian is willing to make a move, there is no need for us to make a request. Besides, even if he wants to make a move, I will stop him. "
Yerun thought that his father would agree with him and do his best to protect the honor of the Ilya Royal Family, but the king's words poured a bucket of cold water on him.
"Why, Your Majesty?
If such a thing happens and we don't respond, the blow to the kingdom's reputation will be fatal! A tiger that can no longer show its claws and teeth, even a mongrel would dare to humiliate it! "
The crown prince could not help but shout, and his voice became much louder.
However, as if he suddenly thought of something, his voice instantly became extremely low.
"Could it be … that it's already …?"
The king stood up with both hands on his scepter and looked up at the dome of the hall. His gaze was distant.
"Perhaps there are still four or five years? If the Titled Knight 'Tempest Tide' makes a move today, he might be able to kill the 'Octopus Ghost', but the four or five years of buffer for Ilya will be gone.
So what if he can protect his reputation? The new nobles, these mongrel mongrels, will instantly bite back, and Ilya will no longer be Ilya! "
The true health of the Kingdom Guardian was a top secret of the country. Even Crown Prince Yerun was not casually told. At this moment, the young crown prince's guess was confirmed from his father's mouth, and he immediately felt as if he had been dealt a heavy blow.
Was the kingdom about to lose its greatest backer, which it had relied on for hundreds of years? Was a kingdom without a peak Transcendent worthy of being called a kingdom?
"All the qualified Great Knight loyal to the kingdom have already entered the secret realm to receive the lord's guidance. What Ilya's fate will be in the future is not up to you or me today.
Yerun, my son, use your heart to feel the helplessness today. This is the world of Transcendents! "
After a slight pause, the king's eyes emitted a cold light.
"However, we can't just let things go like this. The 'Octopus Ghost' and the pirates who dared to offend Ilya's majesty will have to go to hell to repent for their actions today! The kingdom's vermin who dared to hinder the war must also be severely punished!
Just now, the kings of the 'Tulip' countries have agreed to my 'Navy Rising Star Plan'. Let those old foxes see that apart from being a peak Transcendent, Ilya is not someone the hyenas can covet with just his hundreds of years of heritage! "
