Pirate Kingship
Chapter 1064 - 564: The Solution to Flood Control, Pirate Emperor! (Part 3)
The Power of Law and transcendent ability flowed back into his body along an anchor chain, finally awakening his Fourth-order Heroic Rank ability [Heroic Military Momentum].
In fact, it’s also a variant of the knight profession "Dragon Taming Technique," except the subjects being tamed are the spirits of the twelve specific Knights of the Round Table.
Thereafter, he could gradually master the abilities of all twelve Knights of the Round Table through twelve corresponding knight trials, catapulting himself to the most powerful tier among all Fourth-order professions.
Of course, just like all Oath Knights in Hightins’ history, no one has ventured to unlock the trial of the First Knight [Lake Light Knight] Lancelot at this stage.
And once the [Oath Knight] advances to the Fifth Order Legend, they can break free from the constraints of the twelve Oathsworn Spirits, reclaim their true self, reshape their Self God, and transform it into their own exclusive spirit.
Additionally, they can extract various abilities from the twelve Knights of the Round Table, distilling them into a unique [Strange Art].
"Howl——!"
In a loud dragon cry filled with joy that exuded from Bruh’s mouth, it proclaimed that he had truly become a formidable Fourth-order Hero.
Having drawn closer once again to his once distant master.
Meanwhile, the legend level of the title [Iron Wall] also reached its critical point, gaining its own title ability.
—— Absolute Defense at 100%! 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Historically, within the noble system of all nations, there has always existed a group of people like this.
They would cameo as "Fart-bearing monks," stepping forward when the lord accidentally let out a fart, claiming that it was actually them who did it.
When illegitimate children came knocking, they would bravely take responsibility, standing out as the "taking the blame hero," saying: "This child is actually mine, I’ll take him back and let him bear my surname... Fan!"
Being the lord’s black gloves handling shady deals, blocking bullets with their bodies on the battlefield, were even more commonplace...
But all these pale in comparison to Absolute Defense, with [Wild Temporary Worker] as its only comparable entry that Byron had forsaken.
As long as Bruh actively triggers his ability, he can assume the posture of "catching a blade with bare hands at 100%" and take the blame for his lord at 100%.
Transferring sword and bullet attacks, curses, grudges, rumors, and even pollution to himself or his shield, as long as the enemy cannot kill him, they cannot take a step forward.
This was in addition to the three insurance measures from Byron.
It set an archetype of "loyalty not absolute is absolute disloyalty," making him the perfect [Guardian Knight].
Next to him, [Blood Red Whiskey] Alfred, also followed the recipe provided by Byron, devouring several giant sea monster corpses to smoothly complete his advancement.
He acquired the Fourth-order Heroic Rank ability [Master Chef].
Capable of using various demon monsters and even polluted kin materials to create delicacies with unique effects, they can be self-consumed or served to others, granting diners temporary or permanent enhancements.
Furthermore, he could create exclusive recipes and cuisines, obtaining bonus points for its legendary status, with faster improvement as they spread more widely.
But according to Alfred’s consistent style of "shattered innards, coagulated blood," it would likely be various kinds of dark cuisine.
Such as the exclusive recipe he was earnestly transcribing:
"A bird’s corpse, deprived of its feathers that once allowed it to soar, drained of blood and life, reduced to an indistinct red once cut open.
Mixed together with shredded, rotten-unbearable unknown plant tubers of a ghastly yellow color, drenched in indescribable dark red liquid...
Placed above a fierce flame, constantly turned over with addition of ghostly pale crystals, ultimately served on the dining table."
Comparing it against Byron’s original recipe title, unsurprisingly... Da Pan Ji (Big Plate Chicken).
With the successful promotions of the two, the other specialized professions advancing through the sheer quantity and quality of kills were no exception.
Many officers advanced in this unprecedentedly intense Defensive War, where nearly twenty Fifth Order Legends, Kingly Titles, and Pseudo-Gods participated, and several Pseudo-Gods fell.
Byron’s cousin, [Sea Magician] Saranthe, Sailor Chief [Honest Man] Eight Fingers, [Phantom Blade] Gus, and the Mad Hunt Retainer [Sword Saint] Doppler Greatswordsman Herman, as well as the former Emperor of the Aztec Empire, [Conqueror] Cortes, collectively advanced to the Fourth Order.
The Middle Sequence extraordinaries from the Six Old Gods’ Churches also came in significant numbers, now nearly all perished and became the resources for their advancement.
Moreover, the uncle [Death Knight] Andrew, good at ransacking homes, cousin [Chameleon] Jacqueline, [Artillery Expert] Wayne Dote...
The Storm Knight [Preempting the Enemy] Beret Tanya, Fortress Expert [Unbreakable Fortress] Sam, and a large number of core members of the Lancaster Party, although their rituals weren’t mainly centered on slaughter, all advanced a great deal.
Among the Bayfolk communities, Middle Sequence extraordinaries emerged like bamboo shoots after rain.
The quantity of Middle Sequence extraordinaries in the North Sea Empire soared, although still far behind the Holy Silver Empire, everything was trending positively.
Byron didn’t disturb their advancement but silently landed on the deck of the Golden Deer, immediately being embraced from both sides by Catherine and Violet who heaved a sigh of relief.
They only let him go after carefully confirming that he wasn’t missing any limbs.
However, Byron noticed that Catherine’s expression was somewhat unusual, assuming it was because she saw so many people advancing while she had not yet reached the Divine Domain, feeling a bit upset.
