Chapter 333 The Breath of "Freedom"

Alexei Island, Cordo Sea.

Compared with the previous two days, the number of people coming and going on the island has increased dramatically.

Pirates wearing oilcloth breeches and jackets can be seen everywhere, and even captains wearing tricorn hats have increased by hundreds.

Not to mention, there are many noble families from various continents who come to compete for the station, as well as some sects, wizards and other extraordinary people who rarely operate in the sea.

The surge in the number of people not only makes Alexei Island more lively, but also brings some problems.

The first is the problem of port ship docking.

At this time, the two major ports in the north and south of the island are full of ships, and many three-masted sailing ships have to go to the cliff ports on the east and west sides to grab the docking position of small ships.

Fortunately, the ruling party in the Alexei city-state, the former Black Pearl pirate, the current city-state governor "Beautiful Hand" Flanda Carnero, ordered the establishment of additional ports, which to a certain extent alleviated the problem of ships docking outside the island.

Otherwise, just grabbing the docking position of the ship can make these arrogant, arrogant, and free pirates break their heads.

The second problem is that the positions of various areas in the city-state have not been finalized, resulting in many people being forced to stay outside the trading area or outside the high walls.

This makes almost all taverns full.

Whether it is the location of the tavern lobby or the private rooms and rooms inside, they have reached the limit of what they can bear.

The happiest people are the owners of these taverns. Two days ago, they were still worried about the income of their own taverns. Now, they are worried about nothing. They can count the gold pounds until their hands cramp.

But some people are very unhappy - especially those girls who used to wish to have customers every day. They only lasted two days and directly hung up the "rest" sign.

You can't rest.

Those pirates who came to patronize, lined up at the door with green eyes. Almost as soon as one came out, the second guest was already in place.

Even the girls with extraordinary characteristics could not withstand such a continuous whipping.

As for the last problem brought by the number of people, it is the pressure on public security inside and outside the city-state.

But it can only be regarded as pressure-

In fact, the current Alexei Island is different from the past. Almost no one dares to fight or conflict privately on the island.

No matter how many pirates or noble merchants come, the city-state is still in order.

Just because everyone who comes to this place can see the Hazel Stricker, which is flying the flag of the Church of Dawn, and the mark behind the figurehead-the emblem of the Knights of Valor with two long swords reflecting the sun.

"Praise the Dawn."

The leader of the Knights of Valor, Ronnislaw Kurban, chanted a praise of the great dawn, stood on the Hazel Stricker with a cold face, and scanned the situation inside and outside the city-state again and again.

At this moment, the ship is much more empty and quiet. Except for the leader and a dozen brave knights who stayed behind, there is no one else.

Led by the "brave" saint Xizi Sepulda, they all stationed in the city-state.

From Ronnislaw's perspective, he can also see the figures of two teams of brave knights standing guard on the high wall.

"Captain, I have received an order from Her Majesty. She asked you to go to the sea area 200 kilometers north to wait for the Storm Church's 'Free' Saint Eve Hendrix and her party."

"Storm Church? 'Free' Saint?" Ronislaw frowned, "Are they going to stay on Alexei Island?"

"Her Majesty didn't say it clearly, but it should be like this."

"I see."

Ronislaw waved his hand and said nothing more.

He looked at the direction of the city-state, thought for a few seconds, and then flashed to the exit at the bottom of the cabin and sailed to the deep sea on a sloop.

I don't know why the "Free" Saint came to this island.

It can't be that the demigod Lord took action and asked the Storm Church to send a saint to assist in the guarding of Alexei Island?

If so, it would be... ridiculous!

...

Let's not talk about what happened outside the island for now. The Alexei city-state is already bustling with people and bustling.

The arrival of the pirates not only brought a large amount of gold pounds, but also brought news from the outside.

In other words, because there are so many people here, the news can spread faster on the island.

"The latest news from the Cordo Communiqué-"

"Since the Alaniga declared full war on the Black Pearl, the Black Pearl has lost five occupied islands in the past three days! 'Mad Eyes' Faris Sanborn, 'Sea Knight' Dies Traore, 'Witch' Latoya Alucard... died in battle!"

"The Alaniga only lost a three-masted sailing ship..."

"The Black Pearl was completely defeated!!"

"Captain Alaniga's 'Singer' Suade Ermanno announced that he would recruit pirates for the entire Cordo Sea, with the goal of defeating the Black Pearl and killing 'Sea Emperor' Isabel Clijsters..."

"Special statement: The content published in the Cordo Communiqué is based on the actual situation, and will never be exaggerated, and will never participate in any disputes in the Cordo Sea!"

Thousands of copies of the Cordo Communiqué were sent to Alexei Island and spread to every corner of the city-state.

Whether pirates or nobles, everyone was talking about the sudden change in the Cordo Sea.

"Crazy, crazy!"

"Damn it, the Araniga started the war so loudly, and the entire Cordo Sea was in chaos!"

"Didn't you see that there have been many pirate ships on Alexei Island in the past few days?"

"It would be better if there was chaos. The 'Emperor of the Sea' has ruled for too long. The dominance of the Black Pearl should have been ended long ago!"

"How can the Araniga be any better? Will it eventually become what it looks like in the Pirate Code?"

"..."

The Araniga, which was originally the weak side, had a lot of scenery in the past two days, which made the pirates become more and more optimistic.

…

And just when everyone on the island was attracted by the incident in the Kordo Sea area, the "Regulations on the Residential Area, Shop Area, and Trading Area of ​​the Alexei City-State" and the latest "Alexei City-State" were also released in the castle. Island Regulations.

Not only that, with the release of the settlement rules, the review of settlement applications has also started outside the central castle, which has caused pirate groups, family representatives, sects and others to flock in.

"Everyone lined up, registered, and then paid the deposit as required and signed the Alexey Island Convention..."

Ubli, who still assumed the identity of "The Slayer" Honattan, was in charge. Old Jack assisted from the side and led the city-state guards to receive the representatives coming and going.

"Sir Slayer, are the rules for entering the island too strict? Do you need to pay a deposit of 10,000 gold pounds? Such a fee..."

"Yeah, isn't such a high cost too much?"

Ubli glared at those who raised objections and snorted: "If you can't even get ten thousand gold pounds, please go back directly."

"Lord Slayer, you..."

"Didn't you hear clearly?! The "Rules" are very clear. The deposit can be returned when you leave Alexei Island."

"Note that 10,000 gold pounds is the minimum required deposit for the lowest-level area. The highest-level area requires a deposit of 100,000 gold pounds!"

"If you don't want to, please leave. Don't waste everyone's time, let alone attract the attention of the heroic knights. I think you should understand the serious consequences of that."

Ubli does not tolerate them. You must know that this rule is the result of several days of discussion between the three of them. The purpose is just to allow these people to prove that they have a certain strength.

After all, pirate groups and nobles who can't even afford 10,000 gold pounds, how can people believe that they can build rune arrays and defenses in the areas where they are stationed?

If you don't even have such an ability, once there is another extraordinary battle similar to the projection of the Lord of the Abyss and the Saint of the Orthodox Church on the island, there will be heavy casualties.

"Sir 'The Killer' is right. If you don't even have this few gold pounds, it's better not to stay on the island permanently. When you encounter danger, it will only bring trouble to everyone." A man wearing a noble dress The middle-aged man pinched his thin beard and smiled.

"Yes, it's only ten thousand gold pounds. Is it a lot?" The man wearing the blood-red robe of the Despair Sect said with a cold expression.

"It doesn't matter whether you have gold pounds or not. The safety of the island is very important. I don't think anyone would dare to cause a sacrificial ceremony or anything like that on this island, right?" the heroic knights sneered.

"This is inevitable!"

"Everything is based on the Rules and Regulations. How dare you offend..." Ubli didn't care about the disputes between these church sects and hummed: "The 'Disaster Wizard' and the Ghost School don't care about your identity!"

"Natural and natural..."

Hearing the ridicule of those around them, several pirate groups who were obviously not that wealthy could only leave in despair.

"Okay, the irrelevant people have left. Now start from the trading area, and proceed from the lower area to the higher area. Let's get started..."

…

At the same time, in the castle, Mitra did not continue to use forbidden objects to change her figure. She wore a pink short skirt. The tulle material made her beautiful figure clearly visible.

She looked at the square below with a smile on her face, not caring at all about the "heroic" saint behind her who was glaring at her with a cold face.

After a long time, Xizi suppressed the urge to kill the Desire Sect's followers in front of her, and said in a cold tone with a hint of impatience:

"Ms. Mitra, I hope you can tell me the purpose of the 'Freedom' Saint and her party coming to this island."

"I'm sorry, Captain Hachizi, I don't know about this either."

Mitra did not look back and said lightly: "I just received the official letter from the Church of Storms and received it as a routine in accordance with the rules set by the master."

"Master?" Xizhi frowned and asked, "Does the 'master' you refer to as the 'disaster wizard'?"

"Of course," Mitra put her hands on the window sill, swayed her hips, and said noncommittally: "Did you think he would be an ugly guy like the Lord of Desire?"

"Oh? Have you even abandoned your faith?"

"I've never had that thing, so how can I talk about abandoning it?"

Xizhi paused. She did not expect to hear such blasphemous words from a favored member of the Desire Sect.

Although these are not words from the mouth of a believer of Dawn Church, they are still the words of a believer who believes in God.

She couldn't help but feel very strange...

"Where is the official letter from the Church of Storms? I want to take a look."

"No, Captain Xizhi."

Mitra tilted her head, and with her movements, half of the hanging clock swayed, and she said with a smile: "According to the rules, your identity is only the leader of the guard regiment, and you cannot participate in the internal affairs of the island. Please Don’t make things difficult for me.”

Xizhi: "..."

In her heart, she was about to pull out the holy sword and chop the person in front of her.

If it weren't for the request of the demigod wizard and the order of the sanctuary, she would have no chance of having any conversation with the people of the Desire Cult.

"Are you going to do it?" Mitra's smile remained the same, even brighter, and he turned around with his hands open, looking like he was ready to be slaughtered.

"Humph!"

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Xizi snorted coldly and turned his head away, "Then why did you call me?"

"Although you can't participate in the handling of affairs on the island, you still have the right to know. What's more, the 'Freedom' Saint and his party came to the island, and the relevant security issues also need to be your responsibility. I think you shouldn't refuse, right?"

"..."

Seeing that she was so fearless, Xizi gritted her teeth again and endured it.

"I understand. I will follow the rules of the island and cooperate with you-"

"That's the best,"

Mitra turned around and continued to look at the settlement activities below, and said in a flat tone: "If it weren't for the request of the chief wizard of the Ghost School, with the master's character, he would never agree to let you Dawn people stay on the island."

"Compared to you, the master hates Dawn more, understand?"

"Heretical!"

"Please don't use such words to describe the master, the consequences are not something you can bear!"

Hearing her words, Xizi pursed her lips and turned around angrily.

"I'll go to meet Eve Hendrix, the Saint of 'Freedom', and bring them to the island later."

"Okay..."

Not long after, Mitra saw a figure emitting golden holy light across the sky and appeared outside the island, and couldn't help curling his lips.

Why did the demigod wizard let such a troublesome guy stay on the island?

Not only is it a hindrance, but more importantly, the power of the Holy Dawn makes her, a follower with the power of desire and faith, very uncomfortable.

It felt like he might be torn apart by a sudden force at any time...

...

"Woo--"

The whistle blew, and a steamship as huge as the Alaniga appeared in the waters near Alexei Island.

At this time, the leader of the Dawn Church's Heroic Knights, Ronnislaw Kurban, who had already arrived, had a solemn face. He was tall and straight in a heavy platinum armor, standing on the boat and looking at the steamship.

From a distance, he could see the steamship's dark blue hull, which was like the color of the deep sea, and three huge flags with the Storm Church logo were hung above it.

On the flat deck, the statue of the Storm Lady, made of cast metal, was lifelike, with long hair swirling around the entire side of the steamship, and her curvy figure stood at the bow, heading straight towards him.

"Dawn?"

"Ronislaw Kurban, leader of the Heroic Knights of the Dawn Church, is the Saint of 'Freedom' of the Storm Church on board?"

"It's me."

A crisp voice came over a distance of a hundred kilometers:

"Heroic Knights... Where is the Saint of 'Heroism' Xizi Sepulda?"

"Your Majesty is waiting on the island."

Ronislaw had already seen the figure of the Saint of 'Freedom', turned around expressionlessly, and headed for Alexei Island in the boat under his feet.

"Please follow me, Your Excellency Eve!"
