Clover Island, Clair County, Shannon Port.

This is a famous sheltered harbor along the Sea of Monsters, and it also has vast pastures as raw material suppliers for the wool industry, with excellent natural geographical conditions.

More importantly, when Violet was advising Byron on industrial center locations, the first place she proposed was the Kingdom of Hightins.

Because the coal and iron ore resources here are very abundant, light industry can seamlessly transition to heavy industry, producing steel, machines, ironclad battleships, etc.

Around Shannon, there are large coal mines, iron mines, natural harbors, along with all the conditions for light industry to heavy industry plus waterway goods transportation.

It became one of the industrial towns of the kingdom, selected by Byron, Violet, and Catherine against the map and the collective subconscious sea.

While it was highly anticipated, it also received a huge tilt of resources, land, funds, manpower, and... investments from numerous great nobles.

"Where did the attackers come from?

Even [Famine Hunter] of the Middle Sequence should not be able to wield such great power to control the forest on a large scale.

Their power is mostly used to tame wild species, turning them into crops or livestock; this seems more like Black Sorcery or some kind of bizarre handiwork."

The first person to discover the accident at the wool factory was none other than the original Lord of Shannon Port, Marquis Thomas Neville.

Before the factory was built, he had not yet contributed land to Byron, and this plant area, far larger than the Kingstown First Woolen Mill, was part of his land equity.

They themselves knew that the output of land nobles heavily relies on land and agriculture, and land, as a production material with an upper limit, destined them to never be enormously wealthy.

Since they tasted the sweetness of the Netherland wool industry, they could see the power of the industrial revolution, multiplying productivity and national strength by dozens, hundreds of times.

However, just after the wool factory started, it encountered such an extreme malicious event, how could the word spread about hiring? How to reinvest profits to continuously expand production scale?

Cutting off someone’s financial road is like killing their parents!

This is both business and personal, so how could Marquis Neville not be infuriated?

"Report, your lordship. There are no traces of any living person in the woods anymore.

[Scene Reconstruction] showed no reactions either, only a trace of bizarre tainted spiritual light was found, and it’s inferred that the strength of the culprit should be the Fourth Order and consistent with [Bizarre - Man-Eating Sheep].

Next, people need to be sent to the accident scene to get more intelligence, but it’s unsure if the culprit has gone far; continuous call for reinforcements is needed."

Predictably, [Nemesis of Sin] Sherlock, serving as Independent Prosecutor for the Star Chamber Court, had been working with the Royal Tax Inspection Bureau to seize land everywhere, and this time he encountered another "Wool Factory Murder Case."

The Sheriff looked very bad, seemingly unable to improve the public security within his jurisdiction.

"Since last year’s ’Death Stranding Incident’ in the Royal Capital, local bizarre and evil spirit events have been occurring one after another.

Especially since I first met His Majesty, the ’Death Has Come’ effect on me became increasingly pronounced.

I used to dine at restaurants ten times and escape three murder cases, now it has grown to seven or eight times.

Now, many restaurants in the Royal Capital refuse to let me enter, I am also quite troubled.

Yesterday I met a Kim Bosa Prophet, who said doom is looming over me, but as the Independent Prosecutor, the only disaster star shining on me from above is... cough cough."

He cautiously looked around before regaining his spirit.

Although the supernatural disasters increased, killing hundreds at once, including several Tower Sequence Artisans, undoubtedly is the worst transcendent disaster after "Death Stranding."

Fortunately, just after they completed the preliminary investigation, support personnel from other departments arrived one after another.

Bang!

[Phantom Blade] Gus shot like swift lightning, wearing the [Third Level Holy Relic - Thunderbird Feather Cloak] fantasized by the "Fantasia Armory."

Behind him were Doppler Greatswordsmen [Sword Saint] Herman and a group of Wild Hunt Knights, who came to Hightins Native Land along with Teresa and joined the Night’s Watch Organization.

[Guardian Knight] Bruh transformed into [Sun Knight], riding on the infinitely powerful Fairy Horse Magringrate.

In front of him, he carried his alluringly beautiful wife, Grand Wizard and Dancer [Fairy] Rigel.

Their Heroic Spirits and titles are deeply tied with the myths and legends of this land, and Byron promptly deployed them.

Soon, the Star Chamber Court, Storm Cloak, The Skinners’ Church, Bloodthirsty Cult, Church Night Watchman... among other skilled operatives under Byron’s command gathered here.

But Byron himself did not attend.

Since ascending to the throne and divine position, no longer merely a former pirate captain, his style also changed.

Pre-confirmed through [Golden Law] modified Royal Iron Law, there was no appearance of any High Sequence aura here, naturally allowing others to handle affairs.

If everything requires the intervention of a King and a God, why maintain so many troops, secret police, and officials?

Who, in the end, is working for whom? Who truly holds power?

Especially with Bruh, Gus, Eight Fingers, and others of The King’s Right Hand following Byron for so long, never perishing in major events, they had naturally experienced considerable growth.
