Chapter 979: Chapter 543: The People’s Support and Kalmar’s Military Petition

This is why every maritime power says that each legendary warship, with its legendary warship skills, is enough to suppress a sea.

Only by successfully building a legendary warship does a country truly qualify to vie for the throne of a regional maritime power.

One legendary warship signifies a maritime power, two signify a regional overlord, and if one possesses a double-digit number of legendary warships, then no one in this world would dare interfere with their "free navigation" and "free trade."

By then, my rules will be the world’s rules!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! ...

In the view of the Kalmar Union’s high command and commanders of various levels.

The sea churned, with one side being a chaotic mass of massive sea monsters, while the other was a line of golden fleets arranged in a perfect battle line.

Cannon fire, smoke, countless red-hot lines of fire intertwining, blood, shrapnel, the rumbling of thunderous explosions, and the colossal carcasses of sea monsters floating on the sea.

Each scene violently shocked the nerves of the Kalmar Union of Three Nations’ senior members.

Superlative speed, ferocious cannon fire, terrifying organizational power and control, and the exquisite "kiting tactics" like dancing on a knife’s edge...

This is nothing short of the most brutal art of war!

Those Bayfolk officers seemed to see the ship of their dreams, each deeply entranced, wishing they could be the ones firing in the Deep Sea Fleet.

Traditional Bayfolk consider it a disgrace to die of old age in bed; they honor dying in battle like heroes. Even being a mere powder monkey, helping to transport ammunition, is a great honor for them.

The Church faction led by the Cardinal Archbishop had ashen faces, their teeth clenching audibly.

"Clench... Clench..."

"The King of the Wild Hunt, minding too much business!"

"If the Lamb of God sees this, how are we supposed to collect the eleventh tax next month? How to build the new church?"

The conservative tactics they proposed of exchanging coastal residential areas for strategic space appeared as a pitiful joke in front of the Wild Hunt King, who actively attacked and beat down sea monsters, stopping the enemy outside the country’s gates.

When Cardinal Archbishop Pond Elliott viewed through the law network the mid- and lower-level officers’ eager expressions, especially the Bayfolk Berserkers’ bloodshot eyes, involuntary battle cries emerging from their mouths.

Realizing that morale was about to scatter if this continued, he hurriedly ordered:

"Switch to Scout’s view for me, and focus the image back to our own ports.

Forget about others; doing our own job well is most important."

The frontline images in the law network promptly vanished. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

But, wanting to close your ears and block your ears is not so easy?

In this world, there are two kinds of trades Byron never does: self-sacrificing and losing trades.

He clearly had the Triton of the Sea King in hand to influence the beast tide’s progress direction but chose not to use it, opting instead for the most straightforward violent means to solve problems, simply to flex his muscle throughout the Kalmar Triad?

"You think you can just cut the network when you want? Tell us not to watch and we simply won’t?

Don’t you know the ’root server’ has always been in our hands?

With my authority as Vice-President of the Lighthouse Union, I command, activate the North Sea Coast’s Lighthouse Matrix local network, broadcast it live for me!"

Since Byron successfully ascended to the Fifth Order, he officially became the Vice-President of the Lighthouse Union.

No longer bearing the title of "Honorary," he qualified to compete for the status and title after Fire Thief Alexander’s retirement as President.

Even being Vice-President, he had the high-level authority to call parts of the lighthouses in the district under his jurisdiction.

At his command, every port city and lighthouse around the North Sea shone brightly amidst the black storm.

Beams of bright light shot up to the sky, re-illuminating the black cloud bottoms draped with cumulonimbus clouds.

The lighthouse’s glow also projected the scenes from the frontline battlefield anew, even in stereo and on giant screens.

This time, not only the Kalmar Union’s high officials could see, but every coastal resident in Hightins, Iron Anchor Bay, and the Eternal Night Peninsula also witnessed this unprecedented man-monster war with their own eyes.

Naturally, they also saw the majestic figure of their protector throughout their entire territory.

Moreover, with Violet holding the lens for Byron, the effect was unbeatable, instantly surpassing flying beasts by eight streets.

Everyone lifted their heads to look at the sky, their expressions constantly changing, quickly realizing what was happening right outside their front door, combined with the overwhelming newspaper information from the past two days.

"His Majesty, the Wild Hunt King, is... protecting us!"

Countless strong prayers for personal safety converged onto Byron through the law network.

For a monarch, the fundamental legitimacy of ruling a nation is providing protection and order to the nation and its people, and maintaining national interests.

Currently, the only two Fifth Order King’s Titles in The Five Bay States, one is fighting abroad for the Church; the other is fighting at the doorstep of The Five Bay States for all the Bayfolkal Group’s people.

In contrast, everyone has scales in their hearts.

They also see clearly the differing positions they hold in the eyes of the two kings.

Perhaps a very few smart individuals have guessed Byron’s intention.

But since the other King’s Title didn’t even put on an act, how could you blame the King of the Wild Hunt for taking the opportunity to show off?

Not only that, but Byron has always looked three steps ahead.

A ring of Luminous Crown steadily rose above his head like a golden sun, and a slight relief showed on his face obscured by the glow:

"The veil of the mastermind has been peeled off another layer by me.

Most of the lighthouses on the continent have already been replaced with the latest Saint Byron Lens, connecting to the Lighthouse Matrix with Pharos Lighthouse as the core, enhancing efficiency by at least three hundred percent on the original basis.
