Banaam Harbor.

When Lumian walks on the street, he always feels like he has arrived at Backlund, the capital of Kingdom of Loen. Although he has never been there, the foggy sky and damp and cold environment are exactly the same as those Trier newspapers and magazines ridiculed Backlund.

Of course, the architectural style here is still significantly different from that of Backlund. It is mainly divided into two categories. One is huge but not rough, with typical Feysac characteristics. The other is built of a mixture of stone and wood, simple and rough, and lacks planning. Sometimes they are crowded together, and sometimes they are far apart.

Most of the pedestrians coming and going on the street were dressed in typical pirate attire, with Dagger slung across their waists and blunderbuss stuck in their hands. They were not covered up in any way, and they looked more like local residents with brown and black skin. They always had a smile and a flattering look on their faces.

Lumian can completely understand the mentality of the aboriginal people. After all, if you really make any pirate unhappy, you may be dragged to a corner and killed, or someone may be touched into the room and killed while sleeping at night, and the murderer will turn around and board his own pirate ship and go away in style.

The current rulers of Banamou Island are trying to recruit pirates and adventurers as a force to maintain order. They also hope that Great Pirate can negotiate a pirate convention to restrict the behavior of pirates in the port, but the effect of these measures is quite limited.

This is because people who are accustomed to being pirates cannot quickly become law-abiding and strict with themselves even if they become a peace officer or a police officer, and the local area lacks strong power to suppress them. Therefore, it is not uncommon for peace officers to knowingly break the law, and there are too many cases of receiving benefits to protect criminals that cannot be recorded.

The piracy convention discussed by Great Pirates is not mandatory. Even if someone does violate it, they will at most suffer a little punishment within their own Pirate Crews. After all, no one is willing to hand over one of their own people to others to deal with.

The biggest effect of these measures is to make Banaam Harbor seem to have a certain degree of order. While Lumian is admiring the lively street scene, from time to time he can hear screams or bang-bang gunshots coming from the alleys Depths on both sides.

"This is a perfect place for 'Hunter'..." he said sincerely.

When the two groups of pirates had a disagreement and started fighting in the middle of the street, Lumian suddenly had an idea:

"'Witch of Despair' needs a big Plague to be promoted to Ritual. It's not impossible to put it here...

"It's just that we have to develop a medicine in advance for the scheduled Plague that can prevent infection or cause serious illness, and secretly distribute it to the residents here to drink...

"The only problem is that there are obviously not 30,000 pirates. Well, there are a lot of Beyonder among the pirates. If we really infect them and make them suffer Pain and Despair, it should be able to significantly reduce the number of people Ritual needs..."

Lumian watched the pirates' fight with relish while thinking about the feasibility of holding "Witch of Despair" Ritual at Banaam Harbor.

When the fight between the pirates came to an end, the Sheriffs finally came, dispersed the two groups, and symbolically captured a few people.

This is waiting for the corresponding Pirate Crew to pay the fine!

As for who of the two groups has suffered a loss and wants to get it back, I'm sorry, the local Sheriff is only responsible for maintaining order and not presiding over Justice. You can go to the sea and fight again.

During this process, several pirates Corpse who were left on the street and Future had time to carry them back were quietly dragged away by adventurers and local residents.

Lumian makes me want to applaud such order.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was still dark and there was still Sunlight coming in outside the fog, he continued to wander the streets of Banaam Harbor.

When passing by a stone house with a Small Square attached, he saw a dozen or twenty people gathered there, most of them local residents, and standing on the Stone Platform in front of them was a pirate wearing a two-cornered hat and blue woolen clothing.

The sea pirate shouted loudly in Feysac: "You are just a group of puppies who have just left your mother's arms. If you want to become qualified pirates, you need to receive corresponding training. Now, I will teach you the first lesson, which is who can be messed with and who cannot be messed with at sea..."

Feysac is the language that is the least different from Old Feysac. Lumian, who is proficient in Old Feysac, can barely understand what the pirate is saying, and discovers that it is actually Pirate Crew who is recruiting new people and providing basic training.

"How can it be like Trier's big company hiring new employees..." Lumian sneered, and saw the pirates on Stone Platform hanging out reward orders and portraits, and introduced the six kings of the sea, nine generals and famous adventurers in turn.

This was exactly the information Lumian wanted to collect. He stopped and listened leisurely from a certain distance.

Without any surprise, he saw the portrait and detailed introduction of Louis·Berri.

At the end, the two-horned hat pirate on Stone Platform pointed to a portrait and said, "Although his reward is not high, you must not underestimate him, or even have any contact with him."

No contact? Lumian looked at it carefully and found that the protagonist in the portrait was a man in his thirties with a strong build, thick brown hair, wearing overalls and a white shirt.

Immediately afterwards, the two-horned hat pirate introduced the new pirates in a solemn tone, "His name is Frank Lee, the first mate of 'Queen of Stars', and he is a 'Druid'.

"What is 'Druid'? I'll tell you when I introduce you to the common sense of Beyonder. In short, 'Druid' is Sequence 5, the same as Pirate Admiral. So, do you understand the terror of Frank Lee?

"But this is not the main reason why adventurers and pirates dare not mention his name at sea. I don't know the real reason. I only know that every pirate and adventurer who has met Frank Lee seems to be suffering from some kind of mental illness. When he mentions this person, he will jump out of his chair with fright, and some will vomit on the spot. They always tell me nervously, stay away from Frank Lee, and don't leave your own blood near Frank Lee, and don't eat food that appears around Frank Lee..."

It turns out that Legendary Druid Frank Lee is the first mate of "Queen of Stars" Pirate King... However, why are so many pirates and adventurers afraid of him like this? Even if he has Pirate Admiral level strength and a cruel style, he will not cause this phenomenon... Lumian mumbled silently while listening to the introduction of the two-cornered hat pirate.

He was a little curious about what was so special about Frank Lee.

After watching Pirate Crew recruit new people, Lumian transferred to Carnival Bar not far away.

He squeezed through the pirates who did not hide their identity, sat on the Bar Stool in front of the bar, and ordered a cup of Lenzqi.

The lingua franca of Banaam Harbor is Feysac, but the pirates who come and go speak any language, and they are not people who love to learn. Few of them are proficient in multiple languages. Therefore, those who speak Feysac speak Intis language in the same circle. is in another circle, etc., etc., and the reason why Lumian chose Carnival Bar is that all the Vocabulary on Signboard come from Intis language.

In the noisy and lively environment, Lumian took two sips of Lenzqi, put down his glass, looked at Bartender, and asked in a loud voice Intis language: "Do you have detailed information on nine Pirate Admiral? Not including those mentioned in the wanted order."

Suddenly, the sound in Bar disappeared, and all the pirates present turned their attention to Lumian at the bar.

It became extremely quiet here, and even the faint sound of some people swallowing saliva could be heard.

Bartender's expression became embarrassed and a little playful, and he asked Lumian: "Are you an adventurer?"

He actually went to Bar where pirates were gathering and asked Pirate Admiral for detailed information!

Lumian did not answer Bartender. He turned his body half sideways and looked at the pirates who were watching him.

The fire around him lit up, and Reddish-White Fireball condensed one after another, suspended in the air.

Then, Lumian laughed, raised his chin slightly and said, "Although your bounty is not high, I am too lazy to do it, but if anyone wants to give me the money, I don't mind accepting it."

The expressions of the pirates suddenly changed to Change, and Lumian's gaze did not flinch. He swept across the faces of the pirates and asked with a sneer, "Do you want to come?"

Quiet, still quiet, the entire Carnival Bar remains quiet.

The danger contained in those dozen Reddish-White Fireballs can be intuitively felt by every pirate present.

Lumian no longer Provocation, pointed at the chair a few meters behind him and said, "Don't appear behind me, and don't think about taking advantage of the crowd to get close and assassinate me."

"I will kill anyone who crosses this chair."

After saying that, Lumian turned back to his body, and with a dozen Fireball as a backdrop, he smiled and said to Bartender, "You can answer my question."

Seeing that this adventurer never introduced himself or boasted about his past deeds, but showed strong self-confidence and an attitude of killing people as if they were drinking water, Bartender smiled:

"What we know is similar to what is on the wanted poster. If you really want to know more about Concealment, you can ask different Pirate Admiral enemies. Emperor Roselle once said that the person who knows a person best is his enemy."

"Tell me specifically about the enemies of each Pirate Admiral." Lumian took another sip of Lenzqi.

In the Bar hall, the pirates saw that the adventurer was easily maintaining the existence of Fireball, so they had no choice but to talk loudly with their companions again. Some of them left quietly, as if they were going to find helpers.

Lumian didn't stop him, didn't even look at it.

By the time Bartender finished speaking, he roughly understood who the enemy of "Deep Sea Admiral" Hal Constantine was:

This Pirate Admiral with Sea Monster blood has always been low-key and mysterious. In addition to doing his job as a pirate, his methods are bloody and cruel. He rarely conflicts with other Pirate Admiral and other big forces. But the former "Vice-Admiral of Dusk" and now "King of Dusk"Bratov·Ivan suspected that Hal Constantine's two "Submersible Ship" ships were obtained from a legendary treasure on the sea - "Lost Newins", so he focused on this "Deep Sea Admiral" and wanted to get information about Newins from him. The two sides had many conflicts.

When Bratov became King at sea, "Deep Sea Admiral" Hal Constantine had to always avoid this strong man and his fleet.
