At present, Sheyan was equivalent to a single person in a party. The other Samsara travelers were all in parties of many people. Therefore, even though Sheyan's individual battle contribution was the highest, his total battle contribution could not be compared to the total contribution of the other parties. Furthermore, this historical storyline battlefield: Destruction of the Paragon fleet (Prologue) was not specially opened for contestants like Sheyan and the rest, similarly there would be other high level contestants joining in as well.
However, these high-ranking Reincarnators had to face high-ranking storyline characters such as Jack, Blackbeard and so on. Although they were on the same battlefield as the low-ranking contestants, the nightmare realm would not arrange for them to interact with each other. Once the battle in the historical storyline was over, these high-ranking Reincarnators would be transported out of this world and would not linger in this world any longer.
But even these high level Reincarnators would never have imagined that a freak like Sheyan would appear. His individual strength wasn't considered valiant, but he was extremely adept at organizing a ship, and was extremely adept at seizing opportunities to rise up. When the Spanish Paragon fleet had boarded the ship, Sheyan had successfully subdued the pirates and organized them. It was as though the remaining pirates of the Bell and Mug had become his subordinates! Thus, the battle contribution he generated was unparalleled.
At this moment, the nightmare imprint's notification had reached the final stage, and the reward segment had begun.

Your total battle contribution ranking is: Number 6.
You receive 500 utility points.
Looking at this series of notifications, the 500 utility points reward had finally resolved Sheyan's desperate situation. Finally, he was able to alleviate the huge deficit caused by the frequent usage of his' insight 'ability. As for the Black Rank Item, Type I Metal Dissolving Concoction, it was beyond his expectations. What was certain was that the value of this item wasn't cheap. However, due to its soul binding, it couldn't be traded. Furthermore, it had to be used on at least a Silver storyline grade weapon!
Currently speaking, it wasn't as if Sheyan didn't have a way to acquire silver storyline grade weapons and equipments. Citing a simple example, if he killed one of the future seven great pirate lords, Ammand, then there was a 90% chance of him dropping a black grade weapon or even a stronger weapon or equipment. But having the means is one thing, having the ability to do it is another matter. Just like how everyone knows that the top ten super girls and fast men is a way to become famous, but every year only a few people stand out because of this.
Sheyan was a person who knew his limits. Currently, his limit was to complete a light blue class mission. Even so, he still had to plan well beforehand. He had to make full use of the three major factors – timing, location and people. For example, obtaining the number 1 battle contribution ranking, it was a small probability event that couldn't be replicated. If Sheyan's actions were based on the criteria of obtaining the number 1 position, then he would've died long ago! Thus, he could only shake his head and sigh, placing this reward into his personal storage.
At this moment, the cannon sounds that signified the end of the battle no longer resounded. The British ships naturally wouldn't participate in the loot division. The merit of sinking the spanish ships would be fully attributed to them, and the Queen's reward would be their greatest harvest. The pirates had also paid a huge price. Out of the 13 participating pirate ships, almost every ship was injured. 3 were heavily injured, and 4 were sunk! After sending out the signal, all the pirate ships sailed towards the west. There was a pretty good little island there, it was called Lotus Island. The island had fresh water, but because it didn't have a suitable shelter from the wind, they couldn't set up camp for long. But a short rest wasn't a problem.
After Sheyan left, he first carried out his duties as a crew head. Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, he completely overruled Blind Matt's arrangements. Ignoring his ashen face, he used his own methods to allocate manpower. His prestige was higher than Blind Matt's, and his methods of employing people were more scientific and less troublesome. Naturally, his subordinates would listen to him. Finally having some free time to rest, he saw Chris walking over with a sullen face. His appearance was no different from an unlucky guy who had been stripped naked and thrown out of a casino. He dejectedly sat down opposite Sheyan and started to grumble.
Actually, after Chris boarded the ship, he was similarly drawn into this region's historical storyline battlefield. To Sheyan's surprise, Chris who had been hiding in the ship's hold actually reaped some benefits! Sheyan didn't know what Chris did in this region mission, but he similarly received considerable rewards. Among them, there were 2 ancient gold pound sterling that Sheyan had previously obtained. Not only could these precious items be used to exchange for utility points, it was also a crucial item that many storyline characters loved. If a person with high charm obtained it, it would be twice the result with half the effort.
However, everything was spoiled by Chris's love of taking small advantages. After he obtained those 2 ancient gold pound sterling, he couldn't understand its value. Hence, he took it out and inquired about it to the nearby sailors. Yet he didn't consider that these sailors were originally pirates who were like wolves and tigers. If not for Sheyan's ruthless methods that intimidated them, the seemingly harmless Chris would've been skinned alive without leaving a single bone behind.
Presently, when these pirates saw Chris holding onto those 2 valuable items, and news of it spread out, their hearts were filled with greed. Thus, they set up a gambling house to lure the monarch into a trap. Chris had indeed underestimated the intelligence of a storyline character, and was miserably tricked. In the end, he was swindled and robbed of his 2 ancient gold pound sterling, causing him to lose cleanly! Not only that, he even owed quite a bit of debt. The pirates roared with laughter as they chased him out. Fortunately, they still had some misgivings about Sheyan's face, and didn't rob Chris clean and throw him into the sea.
Although Chris repeatedly emphasized to the pirates that he was the cousin of the new crew head, and that the two of them were friends who had gone through life and death together. However, he was naturally aware that his relationship with Sheyan was merely a very realistic business transaction. Strictly speaking, Chris had already 'introduced Sheyan into their organization' in advance, and enjoyed the privilege of staying on the pirate ship. Therefore, Chris's current grievances to Sheyan, was actually just an instinctive venting. He didn't even hope that Sheyan would console him.
Who knew that after Sheyan heard Chris's complaints, his eyes flickered with a glimmer, but his expression swiftly turned gloomy. That appearance caused Chris's heart to surge with an indescribable faint palpitating sensation.
"Bring me there." Sheyan suddenly stood up and spoke indifferently. His face was slightly blurred in the shadows, adding a sense of mystery and unpredictability. Chris momentarily felt suffocated, he stammered.
"Go … … go where?"
Sheyan turned around, using a penetrating gaze to stare at him, Chris couldn't help but take a step back.
"You've been rambling on and on about so many things, isn't it because you want me to stick up for you?"
At this moment, Chris's heart surged with an indescribable ecstasy, he hurriedly replied.
"They're over there … …"
The cabin door of the Bell and Mug was made from cedar wood from Sweden. Apart from being durable, it was also resistant to insects, corrosion and destruction. Because the cabin door of a pirate ship, apart from being used to guard against theft, it also had another huge function, which was to isolate the enemy from attacking. Therefore, its sturdiness was several times that of a building on land.
Following a loud bang, the cabin door to the west side of the woodworking room was smashed apart by a kick. Cracking sounds could be heard as a large portion of the spliced door broke apart. Then, it spun 2-3 metres before smashing onto a fixed table; smashing the rum and roasted chicken on the table into smithereens as they sprayed all over the place! The complacent laughter of the pirates abruptly stopped.
The torches in the distant cabin corridor flickered, stretching the two figures that were projected from the door. One of the figures appeared to be uneasy and somewhat flustered, but the other figure appeared to be strict, unyielding, and filled with a kind of callousness of doing things his own way. As Sheyan entered the cabin, he surveyed his surroundings. Although he had just assumed the position of Crew Head, including those spaniards, his hands were stained with at least 7-8 lives. His viciousness had left a deep impression in the hearts of the pirates. Hence, the oppressive aura he brought was naturally indescribable to these pirates.
