Chapter 309: The Giant King's Court

~7 min read 1,252 words

"Hunt the 'Admiral of Blood'!" The voice echoed through the dining hall, and for a moment, the pirates' whispers fell into dead silence.

Many pirates looked at Klein with expressions as if they had seen a ghost, and even the "Iceberg Admiral" Edwina treated the matter with caution.

Only Leonard, Sharon, Maric, and the others kept their expressions unchanged; this was a plan they had decided upon together.

"There is confirmed news that the Rose School of Thought and the Blood Sect have reached a cooperation, and the Blood-Venerating Cultists are also retreating toward the Pasi Plateau in the Southern Continent."

"We all know that the 'Admiral of Blood' is the Rose School of Thought's spokesperson on the sea, so this time, the 'Admiral of Blood' stands on the opposite side of us as the Rose School of Thought."

"And the 'Admiral of Blood' possesses a massive fleet, which also makes it convenient for them to transport the Blood-Venerating Cultists."

This was intelligence Klein had obtained from the Evernight Church.

"Stop! Do you know how many Beyonders are in the 'Admiral of Blood's' pirate crew?" Danitz, who was standing closer to Klein, couldn't help but say.

The "Admiral of Blood" Senor himself is a powerful Sequence 5 Beyonder, and his subordinates include a group of great pirates; these great pirates alone could independently lead a large pirate crew.

With these people combined, that is one of the strongest forces on the sea, and with the support of the Rose School of Thought behind them, it might not be inferior to the forces of a Pirate King!

"They are currently transferring the Blood Sect's Beyonders and assets," Edwina said after a few seconds of silence.

So, the current "Admiral of Blood's" power must be at an even higher level.

"We have already considered all of this." Klein is not stupid; before making the decision, the few of them underwent a long period of consideration and investigation.

Klein is currently not afraid of Sequence 5 at all, and with the Arrodes Mirror, he can even suppress them.

And Sharon is also a Sequence 5 "Wraith," the same as Senor, and she even has a Dream Badge on her person.

Leonard and Maric also have their own advantages, and their combat power is quite good.

Their small team is roughly equivalent to three Sequence 5 Beyonders, plus Edwina and the "Golden Dream"; if operated properly, it is not impossible to take down the "Admiral of Blood's" fleet.

As for the higher-level Demigods, it can only be said that in a situation where many Churches are joining forces, Demigods are key targets and will be more dangerous, so they might not necessarily pay attention to this fleet.

Taking a step back, even if there were, so what? Who doesn't have some background?

All the pirates were looking at Edwina, waiting for her decision.

"Just this one time, it should be enough for you to advance to a Demigod," Klein suddenly reminded her.

At this moment, the starlight that had not yet dissipated in Edwina's eyes flickered.

With the wealth and generosity of the Dream Sect, if she could truly capture Senor's entire fleet and the Blood-Venerating Cultists on board in one fell swoop, then she would have a high hope of obtaining the Sequence 4 formula or even the corresponding Potion.

"Senor's fleet has not appeared on the sea for some time," Edwina said after a period of thought.

"I have a way to confirm this." Klein smiled; being able to say this meant that Edwina was already tempted and prepared to take action.

"……Okay!" After a brief silence, Edwina nodded gently.

Afterward, she turned to look at the other pirates.

"……I've long found the 'Tree of Flesh' an eyesore! Take it down!" Danitz was the first to step out and respond.

The "Tree of Flesh" is the flagship of Senor's fleet; Senor resides on this ship year-round and rarely even sets foot on land.

"Right! Take down Senor!"

The other pirates also rose up in a clamor, beginning to offer all sorts of greetings to Senor's parents' generation.

The matter was settled just like that.

Afterward, the "Golden Dream" went to arrange supplies, preparing for a big fight on the sea.

"I'll go find news of Senor's fleet." Klein returned to his room and took out Arrodes.

"My supreme master, do you wish to know the current location of the 'Admiral of Blood'?"

A line of pleasing, colorful text had already appeared on the surface of the Arrodes Mirror.

"Mm." Klein nodded gently.

"Hum!" The Arrodes Mirror hummed softly; against a background of the blue ocean, seven or eight ships were sailing.

Only at this moment did Klein think of this issue: even if he saw the "Admiral of Blood's" fleet through Arrodes, he still couldn't pinpoint him on the vast ocean!

This is somewhat troublesome…… Klein frowned slightly.

"Master, do you need me to predict and display the locations where the 'Admiral of Blood's' fleet might stop along the way for you?"

Another line of text appeared on the surface of the Arrodes Mirror.

You have this function too? Klein nodded gently, "Good."

The surface of the mirror seemed to have ripples spreading out, displaying a... nautical chart.

Klein raised an eyebrow; this was the very one hanging in Captain Edwina's cabin.

And in the next moment, a small blood-colored ship appeared on the map, and then, it began to calculate……

Several red lines spread out from the blood-colored ship, gradually extending and pointing toward various islands.

If one looked closely, these red lines also had variations in color depth; from blood-red to pink, it roughly indicated the level of probability.

Klein looked carefully for a while, finally excluding the others and only looking at the two blood-red lines.

"The Roselle Sea and the City of Generosity, Bayam……"

These two destinations were the two places Arrodes felt were most likely after its prediction.

And the Rosed Islands were actually not far from their current location.

"Master, are you satisfied with my performance?" Another line of text jumped out on the surface of the Arrodes Mirror.

"Not bad." Klein nodded after reading it, watched a round of fireworks on the Arrodes Mirror, then put it away and performed the Reverse Four Steps to arrive Above the Gray Fog.

He prepared to divine to confirm the authenticity of the news.

With clear directionality, the divination did not consume much time; Klein quickly completed the basic divination and confirmed the news was correct.

"Since I'm already up here, I might as well divine these two items." Klein reached out and took the key and the travelogue from the pile of miscellaneous items.

These two items were too precious, so Klein didn't dare to carry them on his person, having to hold a ritual to send them Above the Gray Fog.

"Starting with you!" Klein looked at the huge Giant key on the table.

Klein placed his hand on the key to conduct a dream divination.

Under the guidance of a wondrous power, he sank into a dream and saw the legendary Giant King's Court.

The light of Twilight fell upon Klein, and he seemed to have crossed the limitations of time, landing in the Giant King's Court of several thousand years ago.

Those indescribably magnificent structures and those towering, enormous palaces gave Klein the feeling of an ant looking up at the gods.

"It really is related to the Giant King's Court!" Klein confirmed this one thing.
