the sh.i.p.s that were currently docking below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the seas, all 21 sh.i.p.s had docked in formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And turn by turn, many jumped into the water for no more than 3 minutes before getting yanked back up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a ship, freshwater in barrels was used for cooking and drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as required, at least once in 2 weeks, the men had to take their baths by diving into the seas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, they didn’t stay too long in the waters because firstly, salt was very drying to the skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And accidentally taking it in could make a man sick, especially on the seas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, there might be dangerous and deadly sea creatures around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, because there were many people on board, only a few could take their bath now, and next week, another batch would take their bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, the selected batch of people jumped in for a quick rinse, and that was that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as the crew continued their biweekly rinse, their ’Primate’ in charge of all 21 Captains that led the sh.i.p.s was currently having a meeting with his Captains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And who were these people?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, they were the group that the Temple of Dragmus appointed to claim Baymard in the name of the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The various elders won the auction of several properties months back, and their team had been dispatched to conquer Baymard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the number of sh.i.p.s and people present, they were very confident about their victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And who was their commander?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had brought 150,000 people for the battle against a puny empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It sounded more like overkill to them because they even doubted if that little empire that overly relied on Carona.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they weren’t complaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had to come out victorious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for their Primate, he was the one in charge of this operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could say Primate was more like a rank or title that was bestowed on some people by the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was very similar to a Bishop rank or title.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Primate Jimosen the 3rd had all power and authority to bring glory and honour to the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Funny enough, when they left the shores sometime in August, the Baymardian soldiers arrived a few days after them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were heading to Baymard to wreak havoc, but little did they know that their bases would be no more by the time they even reached Baymard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Primate Jimosen, we are advancing just as planned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, we will be able to reach Selo village in the west of Carona.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There we will wait for the Primate Linvor and his men from Deiferus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that he should be bringing 27 more sh.i.p.s, so in total, we might be hitting Baymard hard with over 300,000 men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They won’t stand a chance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That tiny place wouldn’t be able to survive after this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for why they couldn’t just head on to Baymard first, that was because the leaders from each camp and each empire wanted things to be fair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew if those who went first would rob them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they all worshipped the same temple leader, each base wanted more benefits and would hate to get cheats out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So after the bidding war, they all decided to send their captains to ensure they got what they deserved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for all bases, their Caronians were placed under Primates, who were neutral and weren’t under any bases since they worked directly with the leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sh.i.p.s and Captains leaving Yodan were under one Primate, while those leaving Deiferus were under another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They agreed to meet up and arrive at Baymard at the same time to ensure no cheating or stealing of goods took place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More still, Primates were here to ensure that the bases didn’t get their hands on whatever was locked up in the lower regions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their leader would have to be informed of the findings first before anything there could be touched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had planned and divided the Baymard to its last bits, which undoubtedly proved how overly confident they were about their victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the village that they would stay in, it was very far away from the coastal city that had the Trans Bay-Caronian ports.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bringing this many people would hint others about their movements, and they didn’t want the enemy to prepare against them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they chose to take over a tiny village West of Carona and wait for the other sh.i.p.s to join them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the men couldn’t help but voice his opinion on this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Primate, I still think that we should’ve stayed in another place rather than that village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of its location, it’s famous for having pirates over there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the perfect stopping point for those loathsome fellows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I’m afraid that if we stay there, we might end up wasting our time and effort fighting those bastards.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jimosen looked at the Captain and rubbed his chin playfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You do have a point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, we already have a terrible history with those lowlifes who call themselves pirates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it’s too late to change our plans now since the other Primate will be heading towards the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, I see your worries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We might spend several weeks waiting for the other sh.i.p.s to reunite with us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So during this time, we might be battling there nonstop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why should we be afraid?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have the temple’s blessings with us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So nothing will happen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s eyes widened as they looked at the fat blue ruby ring on their Primate’s finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, this was given by the leader as a guarantee of our victory through his blessings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this, no one will be able to stand in our way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was very excited and filled with awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of the leader!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is kind through and through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t believe he gave us the famous ring of victory that was said to have been a spiritual artifact that led to our victory since our temple’s creation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ring is the reason why we’ve never lost any major battles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So with it here, we will definitely conquer Baymard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our Leader is great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our Leader is great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our leader is great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(^_^)\u003C\u002Fp>",1057,"2026-06-03T07:55:33.101Z","2026-06-03T07:55:40.090Z",1,"novelbin.me","3e425a4f0c9939f25ea2f2c8c289cda78f4bcd713a9bb88d7f4c6fbf23a800b0","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-858","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-856",1977,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-king-of-technology-cover.jpg"]
