Pirate Kingship

Byron and his spear became one, and the blazing white spear light turned into a long rainbow and soared into the sky.

[Bearman] Ulysses only had time to protect the huge anchor beside him in front of his chest, and was hit in the chest by the spear head of [Gungnir] through the gap in his defense.

Boom!

Compared with the King of Frost Giants, the spear head was only the size of a needle tip, but at this moment it was as heavy as a mountain, and it hit the [Bearman] and immediately made a huge roar of landslides and cracking.

Not only did he fall off the back of the Dragon Whale with his head raised on the spot, but he also rolled back along the frozen sea surface.

The sea water froze "crackling" after contacting his body, and he almost splashed water.

However, the King of Frost Giants was covered with hard ice crystals, and he was even a large mass of ice elements.

Even though Byron suddenly attacked with a gun, hitting the [Winter Secret Box], the only weakness in his body, it did not cause any fatal injuries to him.

Ulysses roared, and immediately used the power of the [Winter Secret Box] in his chest to activate an ice storm and [Ice Aura] in front of him.

The blazing white rainbow that was walking on the waves and chasing him was delayed for a moment.

"Lancaster, you are the one who should die!

So many people hope that you will never appear again, why can't you die with the Red Rose when it is destroyed?

Everything you have now should be mine, mine!"

As he said this, he shook the huge anchor in his hand, enchanted it with ice elements, and took the starting posture of [Frost Wolf Swordsmanship]. The momentum on his body suddenly changed.

It was as if he had instantly turned into the most dangerous lone wolf in the Great Forest of the Northern Territory.

In a flash, with a step from top to bottom [Old Man Slash], he hit the secret of Byron's Storm Swordsmanship [Battering Ram]!

Fire flashed, thunder roared, as if two heavy artillery pieces were blasting head-on, and the violent shock wave blew up a huge hole with a diameter of hundreds of meters in the heavy rain.

[Bear Man] was originally a leader among the fourth-level heroes.

The Queen of Eternal Night temporarily lent him, the regent prince, a crown, and temporarily pushed him to the level of the fifth-level [King Title], which was no weaker than the [Mad King] Henry VI who was firmly on the throne at the time.

Plus the heart of the Frost Giant King.

Including physical strength and a series of frost-domain-like spells and authority, the power he exerted in a short period of time was not inferior to that of a normal fifth-level pseudo-god.

He was not too inferior to Byron in a head-on confrontation.

The heart in his chest shone brightly, providing explosive power to his huge body over five meters tall.

The cast iron anchor in his hand was twisted, and it was chopped down again with a numbing scream and hailstones.

Before the anchor tip that could split the mountains and the sea arrived, countless hailstones as big as beans had already hit Byron like randomly fired lead bullets.

The shrill sound of breaking through the air proved that the power of these high-speed flying ice particles was absolutely no less powerful than any large-caliber shotgun. A rock placed here would be beaten into a sieve by them.

"Die!"

But Byron, who easily unloaded the huge force of the collision, not only did not dodge, but his body suddenly expanded like a blow, and in an instant he became a giant almost as tall as the King of Frost Giants.

[Change] Power activated!

At the same time as not retreating but advancing.

Byron held [Gungnir], whose body had also expanded to the thickness of a mast, with one hand.

The gun head had naturally fallen behind him in the collision just now, and the crystal gun head was mostly lit, flashing with extremely dazzling and extremely dangerous thunder and lightning.

"Crackling" completely illuminated the entire sea surface.

Byron's original form [Ouroboros] was already a hundred-meter-long beast. When he exhaled and spoke, the sea and sky also changed color.

His eyes turned red, and divine aura burst out from his body. The power came from his feet, and his waist and abdomen exerted force, twisting his monster-like muscles, bones, and fascia into one.

The air that just touched his skin made a series of explosions like fried beans because of the strong power ripples.

He clenched the end of the gun with one hand, just like swinging a hard and elastic load-bearing steel cable made of spring steel, and pulled this long spear from the myth from the back to the front.

Rumble.

The power of this blow was so strong that the right hand had just been raised, and the straight and thick gun shaft collapsed into a curved bow shape under the terrifying acceleration.

The gun shaft swung at high speed carried layers of sonic booms that had no time to escape, hitting the raindrops and hail in the air, and immediately blew them into white mist all over the sky.

At this moment, the sky was thundering and lightning, and dark clouds were rolling.

Even the atmosphere was torn apart by the tip of the gun, and was forcibly squeezed to the sides by the gun barrel, turning into a pair of huge storm wings behind Byron.

The raindrops a little further away were all carried by the sharp wind and shot in the opposite direction towards the King of Frost Giants like bullets.

Because of the special acceleration effect of the whip transmitting kinetic energy, this attack was faster and more powerful than the former.

Although the two people counterattacked at the same time, Byron's gun tip was faster than the other party.

Instantly, it hit the bombarding anchor.

Boom--! ! !

A ball of thunder fell on the sea, and the world was white.

In the midst of the earth-shattering roar, the enchanted cast iron anchor was hit by a huge force, and it instantly shattered like porcelain, turning into a metal torrent and rushing back.

Instantly, a shock wave composed of iron filings, broken ice, and white mist rushed out hundreds of meters like an angry dragon before slowly dissipating.

Also dissipated was the entire head and half of the shoulder of the King of Frost Giants!

The hard ice element blocked Byron's initial attack, but could not stop his full blow.

When Byron was in the fourth level before, the unit of measurement for his strength was the [blue-haired] Barbarossa Haldin. In the early stage, it was casually seven or eight blue, but in the later stage, he had been completely eliminated.

Now promoted to the fifth level, his strong accumulation has made his strength outstanding among the fifth level pseudo-gods.

[Bear Man] Even if a series of external forces are superimposed, there is still a significant gap compared with him.

"Ahhhhh"

The nearby Kalma soldiers who were not dead could not help but kneel down on the ground with their heads in their hands and howl in pain, but they could not hear any sound at all. It was obvious that they had been completely deafened by the shock.

Byron ignored them and frowned as he looked at the headless King of Frost Giants and the unharmed box exposed in his chest.

His divine vision has long seen the [Bear Man] clearly.

The heart of the Frost Giant King transformed Ulysses' body into an ice element that was almost equivalent to a false god, and his soul was preserved inside the indestructible ice secret box.

There is almost no dead line on this treasure, and ordinary attacks are obviously difficult to work on it.

[Redbeard] Edward, who had the immortal body of [Soul-Concealing Phylactery] at the time, could only be considered a dwarf compared to him.

Sure enough, Byron's hands kept moving and he had already put away his gun and was about to stab again.

A gust of cold wind blew up as if from the polar regions, and the headless body of the Frost Giant King instantly turned into light and merged into it, rolling up a biting blizzard over the military port.

call out--!

A snowflake scraped by Byron's cheek and instantly cut off a strand of his hair.

The wind was as sharp as a knife, and the storm over the entire military port turned into a blizzard.

Then more hexagonal snowflakes whizzed in.

Byron actually saw the shadow of [Frost Wolf Swordsmanship] in these snowflakes, and couldn't help but secretly praise:

"Good swordsmanship!"

The essence of this swordsmanship, which the people of the Bay learned from the monster Frost Wolf, is to maintain their sanity as cold as ice amidst the violent sword moves, to attract madness but not to be mad at heart.

It also fits the unique natural environment of this land and the national character of the Bay people, and its power is doubled in the ice and snow.

Obviously there is nothing in this world that can be more powerful than the King of Frost Giants who is a blizzard himself?

Moreover, if it were not for the ability of the [Secret Box of Winter], Ulysses would have had his head blown off by Byron right now. In such rage, the power of his swordsmanship doubled.

"Ah, the mad god has descended upon you!"

A circle of light exploded in the blizzard. He had completely surrendered his non-human mythical form to his body's instincts and vowed to chop Byron into pieces.

Byron also stopped looking down on him.

I have to admit that [Bear Man] Ulysses has some ability to become the crown prince of the three countries of the Kalmar Alliance.

Awakening the God of Self means that the precondition of "obsession" is completely satisfied, and there is the hope of independently advancing to the fifth level of legend by relying on one's own strength rather than the inheritance of ancestors.

This was something that neither his uncle Henry VI nor his father could do. They could only hope to find an immortal ladder that suited their own path and embark on the path of a false god.

Regardless of swordsmanship, talent, or character, [Bear Man] Ulysses can be called the number one among the young generation of the Kalmar Alliance.

Once you get the crown of Queen of Evernight in the future, you will definitely be a formidable enemy.

"It's a pity that your growth rate is still too slow.

This is not how the war between gods is fought. "

Wow.

There was the sound of water in the shadow under Byron's feet, and a black cavity three meters in diameter suddenly took shape.

He slightly expanded his divine domain [Styx Styx] to block all the ice and snow swords that were slashing at him crazily.

[Bear Man] Ulysses obviously didn’t know the nature of Byron’s domain, and a huge human face formed in the wind and snow and roared at him:

"Lancaster! The heart of the frost giant anchors the world's winter.

The cold North is the natural domain of the Frost Giant King, and I make all the rules here.

I originally thought that we would suffer heavy losses today and that we would have no hope of winning the Kingdom of Hetings.

Since you came to your door to seek death, you can't blame me.

I would also like to thank you for killing all the blood descendants of the [Blue Dragon King] in the country and leaving no descendants, which just cleared the way for me.

As long as I can kill you, no one in Hetings will be qualified to sit on the throne, and that crown is destined to be mine.

Even if it means burying all the direct troops under my command, it is still worth it.

Edict: The Ice Age is coming!

Not just the river water, even the volcano must be frozen for me! "

A blue-white sun suddenly lit up in the sky, and circles of light waves bloomed like water ripples. The already bitterly cold military port suddenly turned on the quick-freezing mode.

The Ice Age has come to the world and will freeze all living things into icicles.

Zero degrees, -10 degrees, -20 degrees, -30 degrees. In the blink of an eye, it reached the lowest temperature in the polar region of -95 degrees.

At this moment [Bear Man] has completely released the "winter" contained in the box.

Byron is not doing well yet, but the surrounding Kalmar navy, except for the Frost Giant Guards, everyone else has suffered.

"No, Your Highness Ulysses, no—!"

"You said that as long as we are loyal to you, you will always protect our backs and let us become the upstarts of the Beihai Empire."

At first, they were soaked by the heavy rain, and at this time they were all wet. When the biting cold wind of nearly minus 100 degrees blew, they were immediately frozen from the outside to the inside.

Crunch

When they were hit by the hail mixed with the wind and snow, many people immediately "crashed" all over the ground.

Before Byron was captured, the surviving soldiers around were almost wiped out on the spot by the commander Ulysses.

But "Ice Age" is the most powerful and indiscriminate move of the King of Frost Giants. In order to successfully kill Byron, the great enemy, Ulysses has no other choice.

The tragic death of soldiers is just a necessary price.

Hearing the soldiers' plea for mercy, he not only did not hesitate, but urged the [Secret Box of Winter] to continue cooling down.

-

120 degrees, -140 degrees, -160 degrees. Soon he reached the temperature limit of minus 230 degrees, which is almost the limit of ice element survival.

If the temperature gets lower, approaching absolute zero, even the basic particles that make up matter will stop moving, and even the ice element will not survive.

Soon, there was only a solitary icicle left where Byron had stood.

Ulysses saw a frozen face through the ice crystals that had become transparent due to the rapid freezing, and he could no longer feel any heat from him.

He laughed out loud.

"Dead, finally dead."

Huh——!

At the same time, the cold wind blew, and the figure of the King of Frost Giants reappeared behind the icicle, silently clenching his fist and smashing it hard.

He also shouted in revenge:

"Eighty!"

"Crack" the icicle shattered on the spot.

It was Ulysses who used the laughter to divert attention and silently added a final blow to avoid fraud.

He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he saw the broken bones, muscles, internal organs, and a frozen crown on the ground.

Ulysses had never seen Byron's [River Styx], but he learned from the church that the forbidden book he practiced came from the Bloodthirsty Cult, which was best at flesh and blood witchcraft.

But now that his flesh, clothes, and crown were all frozen to pieces, he must be really dead.

The most important thing is that in his [God's Vision], which is equivalent to the vision of God, the other party's lifeline ended and the death line spread, and he had indeed turned from a living person to a dead person and a ghost.

"All of them are mine! Your kingdom, your crown, your Bay Princess, and your North Sea Empire are all mine!"

The [Bear Man] was about to bend down to pick up the broken crown on the ground with a surging heart.

But suddenly he saw that under the transparent ice surface, there seemed to be a black river flowing quietly, as if it was not affected by the "Ice Age" at all.

"How is it possible?!"

His heart couldn't help but "click" and the sound of ice breaking came from under his feet.

Just as he was about to turn into a blizzard and rush up to the sky again, a big foot suddenly fell from the sky and stepped on his head and stomped him down.

He fell into the Styx with a "plop".

Obviously, Byron at this time was "change" itself.

Not only can he be big or small, long or short, but he can also live or die, and can switch between living things and dead things at will.

It is no problem to turn into a piece of wood, a wine glass, a pure iron rod, or even a 100% pure dead person.

He holds all the [authority of the underworld] of the known world of the Old World, the Bay People, the Taino Natives, and the Sea of ​​Monsters of the East Continent. No one in the world knows how to play dead better than him!

No matter how careful [Bear Man] is, he inevitably drinks his foot washing water.

The former just fell into the water and sank straight to the bottom of the river like a stone.

Byron landed leisurely on a small boat with a whale oil lantern hanging on it, and pointed a finger at the Frost Giant King who had just been beaten and could not be defeated, and said jokingly:

"Friendly reminder! The first rule of crossing the Styx: You can't bring anything with you when you are born, and you can't take anything with you when you die. In this "Feather Sinking River" where even feathers can't float, nothing can pass except the soul.

This is a storage place for valuables. In addition to paying a gold coin as the boat fare to cross the river, please temporarily deposit all your belongings in the river so that you can move forward lightly.

The withdrawal deadline is: when you pass by here again in the next life.

If you still have a next life."

When fighting with [Devil Lord] Lolina before, Byron's divine domain did not have time to show all his abilities.

Now that he meets the Frost Giant King, his true power is fully displayed.

The first rule means that if the enemy who falls into the river wants to float up, he must discard the treasures, weapons, and even the flesh he carries.

In this situation, only those gods who have completely stepped into the divine realm and whose souls and bodies are inseparable can continue to retain their fighting power.

Gods below the level of Gods will surrender on the spot, just like George, Duke of Clarence, who was allowed to be crushed and twisted.

"Ah, despicable gulu gulu"

[Bear Man] also saw the rules through his divine vision, and his pair of red eyes almost spewed fire.

In desperation, he threw all the "external belongings" including [Frigga's dressing box], storage items, remaining military funds, etc. into the river.

Only the [Winter Secret Box], which has been integrated with the body and soul and is the core of power, remains in the body.

The body then floated to the surface of the river again.

Then he saw Byron on the boat smiling and holding out a second finger to him:

"The second rule of crossing the river: the oath is extremely important, and all those who break the oath will bear their creditors when crossing the river, and the gods are no exception.

The greater the influence of the broken contract, the heavier the burden will be. "

As soon as he finished speaking, [Bear Man] felt his feet sink.

Looking down, he saw that hundreds of pale ghost hands had quietly appeared under the water. They were grabbing his ankles and dragging him towards the water.

When he saw the owner of those hands, he was immediately shocked.

It was actually one of his own who had just frozen to death with the "Ice Age" move.

Unexpectedly, in order to kill Byron, he broke his oath to lead his men to great success, and there was an immediate backlash.

"You are already dead. Don't hinder me. Get out of my way!"

Ulysses beat his legs and swam forward with them.

To be honest, in Byron's view, this Bay Berserker should have been relatively trustworthy before this. Apart from this group of soldiers, there were not many other "creditors".

Just like the monarchs of the past dynasties treated their military commanders and counselors well before they came to power, and acted like a wise master. They only started killing heroes after they had secured the throne. Their nature has never changed. Which mode to choose only depends on which mode is more effective. Benefit yourself.

Thanks to this, although it was difficult for [Bear Man] to swim with him with his fifth-level strength, he was not dragged directly into the bottom of the river.

Seeing the river bank in front of him, Ulysses' face already showed a trace of happiness after the disaster.

But Byron silently raised his third finger and said:

“The third rule of crossing the river: The nature of [River Styx] is consistent with the periodic floods. Even if the gods are continuously washed by this river, their divinity will be washed away and their status will be reduced.

It was even digested by the owner of [River Styx] and turned into his own power.

And the longer it is washed away, the greater the loss of divinity.

Therefore, if you hesitate, you will lose! "

Ulysses subconsciously turned his head to look downstream of the [River Styx], and was shocked to find that at some point, the black river water flowing through him began to appear with colorful bubbles.

It contains memory fragments of his joys and sorrows, his substantial sense of morality and integrity, as well as his spirituality and extraordinary abilities that represent strength.

Seeing them, Ulysses had a dazed look on his face. He felt that these things were very important to him, but he couldn't remember what they were.

Obviously, under the erosion of the rules contained in the Styx, even the Winter Secret Box, which cannot be penetrated by [The Must-Hit Spear: Gangnir], can no longer protect his soul.

Bang!

Soon, the anchor chains on his body were disconnected one by one, and the [King Title] temporarily awarded by Margaret I on his head disappeared.

It's a pity that he is only the regent prince now and has not inherited the real "King Title". Neither the river nor "Why did you engrave your name on my pipe" can take away this crown.

However, the [Frost Giant's Secret Box of Winter] was also flushed out of his body by the river water, and Byron grabbed it in his hand.

He never looked at Ulysses again, who had been completely dragged into the bottom of the river by the undead.

Taking one step forward, he returned to the frozen military port of the material world.

The remaining frost giant guards were still watching where they disappeared. They were shocked when they saw that only Byron came out.

He was hesitating whether to fight or run away.

Byron smiled at them:

"It takes a lot of money to kill Ulysses. If you run away now, maybe someone can actually escape."

The Bear Guards looked at each other and immediately fled.

But as soon as he ran two steps, he heard the roar of hundreds of sea monsters again.

Then everything went dark and I didn't know anything.

Byron looked at the many translucent spiritual sea monsters around him and shook his head at the guards:

"I lied to you."

However, the souls of the surrounding sea monsters were drawn into the River Styx immediately after death and became members of the [Wild Hunting Legion], or more accurately, the mounts of the sea monster knights.

After the titles of [Wild Hunt] and [Sea Hunter] were merged, the members of the legion were no longer limited to humans. Of course, powerful sea monsters were recruitment targets that could not be missed.

It's a pity that compared to the tyrannical body, the soul of sea monsters, especially those inferior sea monsters that were born after being polluted, is far less powerful than the body. The ability to retain one tenth of the power is the blessing of the [Holy Spirit].

After thoroughly cleaning the battlefield, Byron flashed and reappeared, riding an eight-legged Pegasus back to the [Golden Deer].

Asked mother Hathaway to lift the signal shielding of the military port.

The reinforcements called by [Bear Man] are not far away, just in time for them to collect the corpses.

Violet, who was accompanying her, also came up to her and said eagerly:

"Byron, should we attack the Kalmar Alliance homeland and take over the Kalmar Three Kingdoms while that smelly and tough old woman is not around?"

"No!"

Byron gave her an enigmatic smile:

“According to the experience of the Eastern Continent, this is just the first wave of beasts, and soon there will be a second wave, a third wave, and even a legion of sea monsters commanded by [Hai Si].

After the alliance's most obedient direct troops were destroyed by the [Bear Men], the entire alliance was already in danger.

Therefore, now we are not in a hurry to get the crown of the Kalmar Alliance, but the Colmar Alliance needs a powerful protector!

[Queen of Eternal Night] Doesn’t she like to meddle in other people’s business and use the lives of her people to please the church?

Now that the country is in trouble, I am ready to see if she will come back.

In her heart, is her country and people more important, or is her faith in the church more important? "

Violet frowned:

"What if she chooses to return to her homeland to protect her people? Wouldn't that be out of our business?"

Byron smiled coldly:

"Then I will be looking forward to what kind of expression she will have when the [Holy Spirit] tells her in person: 'You are not pious.' "

Hearing his words, Violet and the others around her shuddered.

I think the evaluation of him by the [Painter of Hell] that "You are a devil" is really appropriate.

If I hadn't been in the same group with him, I would have run as far as I could.

Byron shrugged and turned his head to look at the Evernight Peninsula and the Faroe Islands that were gradually moving away:

"Facing someone like the [Queen of Evernight], it is meaningless to destroy her physically. The best way to fight back against her is to destroy everything she insists on and believes in with my own hands.

Not only will I wear the crown of the three kingdoms of the Kalmar Union, I will also make those pro-Church factions kneel down and put it on my head personally!"
