Chapter 138: Salt City Orthodox in Pirates

Chapter 138: Salt City Orthodox in Pirates

Lu Yao stopped his gaze on top of the pirates’ heads.

Before the new era, he had never seen pirates. The closest thing to pirates was the former East River tribe.

This group of pirates had a well-organized retreat and advance, and they looked like they had undergone training.

After they landed, they broke through the slave army’s defense line with spears and bows and arrows, cooperating seamlessly. After their victory, the pirates took two paddle sailboats parked at the dock and finally set the port on fire before sailing away.

This pirate raid completely destroyed the important port on the west side of Salt City, capturing two paddle sailboats. They seemed to be experienced and had clear tactics.

On the other side, the slave traders in Salt City were still arguing in the council. The pirates had already given them a hard time, but they still didn’t want to spend any money.

Lu Yao continued to observe the pirates.

The pirate fleet headed north and arrived at a new continent. A total of five ships sailed into a calm strait and docked.

There was a makeshift dock by the strait, surrounded by thatched huts and wooden houses, which seemed to be the pirates’ headquarters.

Lu Yao estimated that there were probably hundreds of pirates.

The leader of the pirates was called "Copper Sea." He was tall, wearing a round helmet, and draped in heavy copper armor, carrying an iron hammer.

A dialogue box popped up above his head: "Everyone did a great job today!"

"We completely burned down the port this time, and they won’t be able to repair it in a short time. Our future actions will be easier! The slave ships will have nowhere to hide anymore!"

The pirates cheered.

"Temple Army, Temple Army!"

Copper Sea looked back and said, "Commander, what should we do next?"

An old man walked over with a cane.

Lu Yao noticed that the name on the old man’s head was unexpectedly "Shang Li."

Phileas said he died in a shipwreck, suspected to have been targeted by slave traders, but he didn’t expect him to escape overseas.

From the looks of it, Shang Li seemed to be the mastermind behind this group of people. It was not difficult to understand how the pirates were able to destroy the port and quickly seize the sailboats.

Shang Li was now 82 years old.

Lu Yao clicked to view.

...

Shang Li’s experiences were short, but each line represented an adventure.

Lu Yao took a sip of hot tea.

Shang Li, who once stood side by side with the Fisherman’s Alliance and turned Salt City into a beacon for humanity, almost died in his old age due to a mole.

This resilient man was already very old, but he clearly wasn’t ready to give up.

Shang Li spoke, "Next, we will continue to send out ships to patrol near Salt City."

"We don’t need to attack, just appearing will make those people tremble with fear."

"Under immense pressure, their internal conflicts will further erupt, and they will blame each other."

"We need to continue to exert pressure, continue to liberate all the slaves, give them freedom, and fight under the banner of the [Northern Temple Army]."

Shang Li asked again, "Has An Ri appeared recently?"

"Yes."

A smiling face symbol appeared above Copper Sea’s head. "But Apostle Isabella has taken action. She expelled An Ri, and An Ri is hiding in the sun. It’s much safer now."

A light bulb appeared above Shang Li’s head.

"Apostle Isabella has appeared... the gods, the gods have returned!"

The old man immediately knelt down, and a crying expression appeared above his head. "Great gods, your unworthy follower failed to protect Salt City and let this city suffer from decades of disasters..."

The other members of the Temple Army also knelt down and prayed.

"Under my negligence, the ship was sunk, causing the foundation that Salt City had built for many years to be destroyed, turning it into a fallen city that treats people as commodities... I am deeply guilty."

"I swear I will make up for my mistakes and make Salt City great again!"

Lu Yao felt like he had seen this sentence somewhere before.

He couldn’t remember for a moment.

Forget it.

Once the population grows, the lower beings will have their intelligence enlightened, and there will naturally be internal conflicts and differences.

Should commerce or agriculture be the focus? Should the city expand rapidly or proceed steadily? War or peace? Who is right and who is wrong?

The future will be decided and created by the pixel beings themselves.

Lu Yao is the creator of the basic rules and the ultimate judge.

Apart from bestowing blessings, he provides the pixel beings with a path to transcendence. For example, heroes, prophets, and even apostles, as long as the pixel beings are qualified and capable, everyone has a chance.

Lu Yao’s main operating area is on the transcendent side. Unless the pixel beings’ faith is shaken and the population drastically decreases, he will not directly intervene.

For example, the slave system doesn’t seem to require his personal intervention now.

Shang Li is launching a continuous attack on the slave traders.

Lu Yao rubbed his neck.

He suddenly thought of someone who seemed to have disappeared.

What is Sarina doing?

Sarina is maintaining stability in Yao City, and Phileas is running around collecting information. What about the snowman?

What is the snowman doing?

Lu Yao entered the temple and clicked on the snowman’s avatar.The scene was no longer the southernmost point of the Temple Army’s headquarters, but the farthest north. Here, icebergs were everywhere, and thick layers of snow hung on the trees. It was a cold, white world.

A snowman hid in a pile of snow, seemingly observing in secret.

Lu Yao typed above its head.

——?

The snowman shivered, "Lord God, you’re here?"

"Jimmy has traveled the whole world, just to present you with a gift when you return."

"But the world’s barrenness exceeded Jimmy’s imagination. Most monsters have trouble even getting enough to eat, and Jimmy can’t enter the abyss..."

"Fortunately, after years of effort, Jimmy found something good."

"It’s in the giant monster’s nest!"

"No treasure can escape the eyes of a snowman, nor the gloves of a snowman."

The snowman pulled out a black oval object from its belly.

Lu Yao clicked with his mouse, and the object flew into the item bar.

He pulled it open to take a look.

……

【Dragon Egg】: Speed -10.

……

Lu Yao cast 【True Vision Curse】, and once again aimed at the 【Dragon Egg】. After consuming 500 points of faith, he immediately received a more detailed description and panel data.

……

【Dragon Egg】: Speed -10.

A special substance formed by the projection of the Dark Sun, cannot be strengthened, sealed by the power of rules. The dragon egg grows by absorbing the power of the Dark Sun until the young dragon awakens and breaks out of the shell.

【Rule Seal】

Constrained by the power of rules, all abilities are weakened.

【Imprint】

Follows the first target it sees after birth.

【Hatching Brand】

Dark Star (1478/13333)

【Hatching Brand】

Snowman·Jimmy (3389/13333)

……

Is this the 【Dark Sun Dragon】 mentioned in the world update reminder?

Lu Yao pondered.

According to the normal process, this egg should hatch under the Dark Sun. Then the dragon begins to wreak havoc, leading many monsters, becoming a disaster-like existence.

But while it was still in egg form, it was directly captured by the snowman who sniffed it out.

The Dark Star in the sky was killed by Isabella and dared not show its head, and the dragon egg below became the snowman’s trophy. The two elements of the new era were choked before they could exert their power.

Lu Yao also understood at this time.

So, the snowman hiding in the snow was incubating an egg.

It was going to hatch a dragon.

It sounded absurd, but when it came to the snowman, it seemed to become normal.

Lu Yao gave the dragon egg to the snowman, reminding it to incubate the egg carefully and pay attention to safety.
