Pirates Never Work Overtime

Chapter 200 History of the Decline of the Fredo Empire
And the record left by the last author just solved all his previous doubts.

The person who left the records behind Xueyin Keeley, a professional historian, is not a professional just from the handwriting.Compared with the neat and beautiful engravings of Xueyin Keeley and all previous historians, the engraving by this miraculous seal engraver in the end is like ants crawling over, scribbled and flustered, and it doesn’t look like it It was left by a serious historian.

It was also this last record that delayed Moores for a long time. If it weren't for the wonderful content in it, he would have given up several times in the middle.

The content inside is sorted out, which roughly means:
"Hello to those who have obtained the Fredo Empire National Treasure, I am the last king of the 'Fredo Empire', Emperor Patricia XVIII.

When you read this message, you think my empire has been destroyed. Even if it is not destroyed, it must no longer be the Fredo Empire I said I knew. After all, I have witnessed with my own eyes the descendants who have the blood of my royal family Died one after another.

Our beliefs are gone, and maybe someday someone will be able to pick up our beliefs again, but it has nothing to do with me.

It’s ridiculous to say it. Not long ago, I was reprimanding that rigid idiot Keeley for engraving what I thought to be a wise decision on a national treasure as a warning to future generations. Only now did I understand what he said. Wrong, I am indeed stupid.

All of this is my fault. As the king of the empire, despite the dissuasion of my courtiers, I made a wrong decision that I regret for the rest of my life.

I shouldn't support those scholars. In the face of endless exploration of science, those scholars are simply lunatics. The request to conduct research in the Holy Land is only to gamble on the one in ten thousand chance of success.

You must know that the Fredo Empire where I am located is definitely the top in the world in terms of research on superhuman devil fruits. Even in the endless sea, no country can compare with us, if it is not limited by navigation With backward technology, we can rule the whole world long ago.

It is also for this reason that the empire has always referred to the superhuman devil fruit as a "sacred object of inheritance". It is precisely because of it that we can develop step by step from a small marginal country to the overlord of the South China Sea.

Just when I led my subjects to quell rebellions, foreign enemies, and implement benevolent governance to bring the Fredo Empire to its strongest period since the founding of the country, my best friend, the chief scholar of the empire, Dr. Sinan told me that he had been in the holy stone. With help, the secret of the devil fruit was discovered.

If his research is successful, the people of the empire will be able to obtain the abilities possessed by their parents without having to eat the 'inherited holy relic'.

And it is also possible to perfectly deprive the devil fruit before the death of the capable person, and then the kingdom will not lose this ability due to the death of the capable person.

In other words, as long as the 'inherited sacred object' appears in the Fredo Empire, it will no longer flow outside.

After hearing this news, the entire high-level of the imperial capital was shocked. You must know that the reason why the royal family and nobles can become the leaders of this empire is because we have been able to maintain the "sacred inheritance" we want, and we can always maintain it. Our strength will not suddenly decline.

In fact, Xi Nan's first experiment was indeed successful. With the help of drugs, the first batch of noble descendants who took the initiative to accept the experiment actually inherited part of their parents' abilities after they were born.

But it didn't take long before we discovered an inescapable flaw in the drug, and the horror of addiction and dependence made us decide to ditch it.

However, Dr. Sinan did not give up his research on the 'Inherited Sacred Relic' because of this. In order to solve the side effects of his research results, he became more and more crazy.

Finally, one day he found me and expressed his thoughts to me sincerely and seriously.

To be honest, I was shocked after hearing his unconstrained and almost dreamlike ideas, but if it can be successful, the strength of the empire will undergo a terrifying qualitative change, and the huge benefits blinded my eyes. I really want to The legacy of the ancestors has been fulfilled.

Dr. Sinan's theory after many years of research is: the "demon" in the "inherited sacred object" can be restrained, and can be controlled and used for his own use.

Why can't we negotiate with the devil fruit 'soul', or even use it for ourselves?If it is really successful, doesn't that mean that all our citizens can become ability users, and even all abilities can be freely chosen by us?
At that time, I, who was already blinded by such huge interests, readily agreed to Dr. Sinan's request, and devoted all the resources available in the kingdom to him, and even emptied out the holy place that hides our royal family's secrets, so that The base he used for his experiments.

Five years, a full five years, amidst the voices of doubt from all the subjects and descendants of the royal family, Dr. Sinan told me excitedly that he succeeded. .

But as a king, I certainly cannot allow outsiders to conduct experiments. If they succeed, the empire will change, so I recruited my relatives and asked them to sign up voluntarily.

In order to be able to stand out from the crowd, my younger generations agreed to this kind of experiment. Since then, the experiment has started smoothly, and the nightmare of the empire has also begun.

At the beginning, the strength of the clan members who conducted the experiment increased greatly. Without eating the "sacred relics of inheritance", they actually obtained the abilities they wanted. The dire situation of mid-capability.

In just one year, under the help of this group of juniors, there were no more sea monster attacks in the imperial sea area, and the stability of the kingdom rose several levels in an instant.

But a year later, I began to discover abnormalities. A terrible genetic disease suddenly appeared in the royal family. The bodies of all those who participated in the experiment began to weaken rapidly. Bit by bit the crash dissipated.

After discovering this situation, I immediately set out to find Dr. Sinan to find out what happened, but when I found him, I found that he was covered in emptiness, bleeding profusely in an independent laboratory of the Holy Land position

Only at this time did I know that he had done this experiment on himself early in the morning. When he discovered that the gene had a lesion, it was too late. The collapse of the gene's blood was beyond control. Left a will.

In his last words, I learned that his so-called contract with 'Devil's Soul' was just an upgrade of the drug, Dr. Sinan's human experiment was carried out completely by chance.

After learning of this situation, I immediately ordered the entire holy place to be sealed off, but it was too late.

The genes of those royal families have begun to collapse, and what is even more frightening is that the nobles of the empire also secretly took this drug, and everything became uncontrollable. When I realized it, people who had taken the drug began to develop a terrible infectious virus.

This virus has no impression on ordinary people, but it is completely fatal to us who are also "sacred relics".

But in my empire, because of the first phase of the experiment, all the people in the center of the imperial capital can more or less eat a little bit of energy. In just one week, the empire has fallen into the cholera of the virus.

And I was not infected by this virus because I inherited the animal system, phantom beast species, and giant fire devil fruit.

It is ridiculous to say that in an empire that regards superhuman devil fruits as sacred objects, the royal family turned out to be an animal devil fruit capable user, but this is the secret of each of our emperors, even the ordinary children of the royal family do not know .

And this is also the fundamental reason why Dr. Xinan dared to start the experiment, because as a royal family, I actually succeeded in inheriting the devil fruit.

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes never come singly. Not only did the people of the kingdom undergo devastating changes, but even the environment on the island began to change.

All kinds of creatures began to return to their ancestors one after another, and the most serious ones were all kinds of beasts secretly cultivated by various families in the imperial capital. After being infected by the virus, each one's size grew wildly, and their strength increased by ten times, which was extremely terrifying.

Seeing this, I can only call back all the children of the royal family who are still outside, and at the same time order the imperial capital to be completely sealed off to prevent the virus from spreading.

In just three months, the originally beautiful forest in the imperial capital has become a death zone, and the warriors of those kingdoms are also becoming more and more crazy. Unable to distinguish between enemy and friend, they began to kill each other.

I knew then that my empire was over.

Our invincible "Fredo Empire" that dominates the South China Sea will disappear in the long river of history like this, and I will also become a sinner of this kingdom.

At the end of my life, I chose to sacrifice myself and rolled up the boundless sea to try to submerge the imperial capital, hoping that I could succeed.

——Emperor Patricia XVIII Sin"
