Wiping out Vice Admiral Iron Blood

The instant the new Intimidation was completed, Kronos knew he had succeeded. Although he had not yet tested the Spell's power, the Potion had already given him feedback.

The Potion was originally still nearly a quarter of the way from being fully controlled, has suddenly taken a big leap forward in its digestion process. At this rate, after Kronos optimizes the remaining Spell, he will definitely be able to completely digest the Potion.

At that time, the scroll that Kronos has Scroll Professor's Potion, will come in handy.

Of course, the safest approach is to advance after returning to Backlund. After all, there are no Church like the Church of Steam and Machinery at sea, and if such a carelessness leads to the Hidden Sage getting involved, that would be bad.

Although the Concealment of Time can evade the gaze of the Outer Deity, the Hidden Sage is still on Earth. If he were to suddenly appear beside Kronos, he would truly become a delicious snack.

Having found this new path, Kronos's time in Sequence 7 won't be long.

Now that this major problem was solved, Kronos stopped worrying about whether to finish researching the remaining Spell a few days ahead of schedule.

He left the Study and went to check on Sharf, only to find that Sharf was in an even more extreme state than him, still excitedly studying.

It's unclear what stance Kronos was taking, but he simply muttered, "Lunatic."

Then he left Sharf's Home. He had been eating the same Western Capital every day for the past few days, and now Kronos wanted to find a place to change things up and also buy some new clothes.

Kronos knew the commercial streets of Bayam very well, and he chose a restaurant he had been to before.

After the meal, Kronos bought a lot of clothes and even sent a Telegraph home.

The author, in the style of a novelist, recounted to his mother and Younger Sister how safe and sound his journey had been.

He also told his family that he would definitely be home in a month at most.

Now that he had found a way forward, Kronos naturally no longer needed to drift at sea. He didn't feel very free, mainly because he lacked the strength.

As a teenager with delusions of grandeur, how could he not dream of being a Pirate? So when he reaches Sequence 5, it will definitely be the day he sets sail again.

Perhaps the month or so of his journey home would allow him to fully digest the Potion, and then he planned to spend a year crossing Sequence 6. Such a complete plan was thus formed in his mind.

When Kronos returned to Sharf's Home after doing all this, he ran into an acquaintance at Sharf's doorstep: Amyrius's Secretary, Lieutenant Colonel Lü Er'an.

"Wow! You guys are terrifying! How did you know I was back?" Kronos said, feigning exaggeration.

"Mr. Carlson Norman, you're overthinking it. We only found out because you sent the Telegraph."

Lieutenant Colonel Lü Er'an was very dutiful; he directly called him by the fake name that had been given to him.

"Klein, let's stick with Klein. I plan to make Klein's name known throughout the entire ocean. Carlson is just a backup plan."

"Alright, Mr. Klein, I didn't intend to go inside and disturb Mr. Sharf. Since you're back, I'll get straight to the point. The Admiral would like to ask for your opinion on something tomorrow. I wonder if you're available?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Kronos replied, "Admiral Amyrius, so I will naturally be there as soon as possible. I will arrive at the Navy Base entrance at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. Secretary Lü Er'an, is that alright with you?"

"Okay, then let me know when you arrive so I can pick you up." Lü Er'an was also decisive in his actions; after saying that, he turned and left without the slightest delay.

The next morning, Kronos didn't study Spell, so after getting up and having breakfast, he set off.

This time, Kronos was even more at ease at the Navy Base. He didn't even need to say much before someone brought him to Lü Er'an.

After waiting a short while, Lü Er'an brought him to Amyrius.

"You must have been caught up in the war, right? I heard that Marquis Argel has been particularly active in Backlund these past few days, constantly inquiring about the situation on the Southern Continent," Amyrius said in his first sentence.

Kronos didn't hide anything. "That's right. Before the Intis Navy attacked our Harbor, they bombarded a transport ship, and I happened to be on that ship. If it weren't for the Scroll my father gave me, I probably would have been torn to pieces."

Amyrius glanced at Kronos in surprise. He knew Kronos had been through the war, but he hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence that they would run into Intis's navy so directly.

"You did a great job passing the Message to the West Balam colony through Gner. Gner and Earl Hall's youngest son didn't want any credit for your contribution, so it all fell on you. After the war, it's possible that your rank will be promoted one or two levels," Amyrius said with a smile.

In a war that is not yet over, most of the Message coming from the outside is false, but the Message coming from Amyrius could not possibly be false.

"How did it help?" Kronos asked curiously.

"Upon receiving your Message, the Navy immediately began its return voyage. When they reached the vicinity of Berens Harbor, they received Message about the Intis Navy's attack, so they immediately decided to launch a coordinated attack on Berens Harbor."

"Because it was a hit-and-run operation, there were no losses. It was precisely because of the Message of this attack that the Redfire Fleet quickly returned, abandoning its plan to completely occupy our Harbor, which greatly facilitated the transfer of military equipment for our Army."

"If nothing else happens, this one incident alone would be enough to secure your rank of Colonel. However, this war is quite large, and there are many who have distinguished themselves. So when it comes time to actually reward merits, the rewards may be reduced, but securing a Lieutenant Colonel shouldn't be a problem."

After hearing Amyrius's explanation, Kronos realized that so much had happened during this period.

"It's alright, military rank is not important to me Your Excellency. As you know, Admiral, I would never join the army," Kronos said frankly.

That's not entirely true; he might actually have to go to the battlefield someday.

The great war that swept across the entire Northern Continent after the death of George III was precisely this opportunity.

At that time, the Feysac Conquering Fleet attacked the heavy industrial cities of the Midseashire, and a large-scale war broke out with the Sonia Sea Fleet. After that Loen Kingdom collapsed completely, and multiple routes were invaded.

At that crucial moment, how could the Argel Family, whose fiefdom was in the Midseashire, possibly remain unscathed?

However, if he were to voluntarily join the army, let alone attract the attention of the Royal Family, even Kronos himself would have no interest in it.

Amyrius heard Kronos's words, smiled slightly, and didn't continue the topic. He had brought it up in the first place to appease Kronos's dissatisfaction, after all, the child was still young, and what if he couldn't understand?

"Then tell me the purpose of this visit. I'd like to hear your thoughts on what's to come."

Kronos truly trusted Amyrius, so after hesitating for a while, he finally spoke up.

"I'm preparing to return to Backlund. I've found a way to quickly advance to Sequence 6. Backlund should be more convenient for processing Sequence 6 Potion, so I'll stay Backlund a little longer."

"This journey has made me Consciousness the sea is quite dangerous. Sequence 7 is simply not enough. I'll wait until I become Sequence 5. If I still have the inclination then, I'll come back for another look."

Amyrius listened to Kronos's words, nodding occasionally, before finally asking, "Do you want to become an adventurer? Or Pirate? Or something else?"

Kronos was a little confused. "Are there any other options?"

"Of course there are, the most obvious being the Navy's informants."

Kronos, understanding the implication, replied, "You want me to become a Navy informant? That's unnecessary. Just ask me directly what Message you need."

Amyrius smiled. "I'm going to give you an identity, a solid, officially certified Navy informant identity."

"Now there's a perfect opportunity for you to make a perfect appearance across the entire Sonia Sea, but I just don't know if you're afraid that your identity as a naval informant will cause you trouble later."

Kronos remained silent, simply watching Amyrius, knowing that the Your Excellency Admiral not yet finished speaking.

"This time, the Intis Navy's Redfire Fleet is led by Vice Admiral Iron Blood from the Pirate General. The Redfire Fleet is currently being chased around by my Sonia Fleet, but Vice Admiral Iron Blood's Pirate crew is not with them."

"After the attack, Vice Admiral Iron Blood contacted Vice Admiral Iceberg to request a change in the time and location of the duel, making this battle his final stand at sea."

"However, one faction has offered me the time and the position of Vice Admiral Iron Blood, so I'm going to use him as a scapegoat. If you'd like, you can choose to come with us."

"You were bombarded on the Southern Continent, so that grudge is now in the making. You can take the opportunity to get revenge. I'll assign you the title of providing the Message, so when you return to the sea, you'll have a legitimate and impressive reason."

After hearing Amyrius's words, Kronos sighed inwardly.

Traitor Dragon, as expected of you! Even the Church of Knowledge you founded is adept at backstabbing others.

There's no doubt that the Church of Knowledge leaked this Message to betray Amyrius and solidify Vice Admiral Iceberg's position.
