Chapter 1325 - 631: Heartfelt Trouble: The Closer Your Hand Is to the Trident, the Further Your Foster Father Is from You

"Wait! They are all historical great pirates, then who am I?"

In a moment of bewilderment, Byron immediately opened the Sailing Logbook, extending his senses to bring his gaze back to "himself."

Then he saw the dark blue ink that spread across the logbook:

"Bayfolk Pirate Code Activated (Completed)...

Current identity: Activated knowledge...[King of the Wild Hunt] Byron Lancaster?!"

Apart from this activated knowledge that merely shared the vision without imposing any control measures, Byron’s body, along with seven other avatars, all had their pupils shaken, nearly losing their grip on keeping expressions in check.

With strong nerves, after digesting this information, his mind was still in turmoil:

"No wonder! I was wondering how the avatar system, originally existing as a whole, suddenly had a new pseudo member appear, beyond the limit of seven avatars.

Turns out I was activated together with the Pirate Code by the Corridor of Truth.

When I saw how Lake Light Knight Lancelot was used as a giant sword to strike the Divine King and Saint Joan was turned into a straw to steal the creator, I doubted whether other activated knowledge was also being utilized by other Old Gods for some unspeakable purposes.

In the end, the tool was myself?!"

Through spiritual resonance, Byron gradually touched upon the memories of "activated knowledge Byron," quickly understanding what happened to the Pirate Code after being stolen by Dagon and others.

"Slumbering God Kraken also wants to use me and the Pirate Code’s activated knowledge for something!

This body must not fall to the same fate as Lancelot or Joan."

He instinctively reached out to this body’s spirituality and consciousness, attempting to communicate.

Initially, he expected it would be quite difficult because previously he could clearly feel the differences between this body and his normal avatar.

After all, the image activated from legends is that from people’s minds, which can be very different from the true self.

If the character prototype is a well-disguised "hypocrite," then the activated version would definitely be a true gentleman, retaining the essence of the original.

The half-human, half-dragon figure of [Blue Dragon King] in front surely isn’t the true Blue Dragon King but likely a darkened version from legends used to stop children’s cries.

In comparison, Father-in-law [Whale Hunter] has a much better reputation.

His ideas are widely known, hunting those eternally undying giant whales, turning them into whale falls that give back to the world, and normally robbing the rich to aid the poor—he’s a renowned righteous thief.

He’s the one most closely resembling the legend and the real entity.

However, [King of the Wild Hunt] Byron has an even better reputation than Whale Hunter.

Not only is he the Pirate King, but also the inventor of Tudor Hybrid Sailboat, Heavy Cruiser, sugar cane paper, compost technology, field ridge technology, Saint Byron Lens... and many other significant inventions.

He also stood in the North Sea Empire to repel two invasions by Kin, becoming a human hero, a saint recognized by the Church, a Kin of [Holy Spirit], the era’s most acclaimed Messiah...

In just a few years, most humans have benefited from his deeds.

Thus, even bearing the title of Pirate King, upon closer look, hey, this Pirate King is full of Holy Light!

The activated knowledge led by the "Divine Aspect" is even more upright than Saint Joan, making Byron himself feel a bit dazzled.

Probably, not many in the world could be more "great, glorious, and correct" than him.

Moreover, when others left mythological legends, the entities themselves usually no longer existed, but Byron’s entity is still alive.

This situation not only has he never encountered before, but he also hasn’t even heard of it.

"What happens when Li Kui meets Li Gui," Byron doesn’t know either, but since it’s just a piece of consciousness descending here, even if anything unexpected occurs, he can timely minimize losses.

But, activated Byron proactively echoed him.

"Entity, you have finally arrived."

When Byron resonated with consciousness, this body showed no resistance at all, instead relieved to hand over everything to him as the entity.

Currently, the ship full of pirates, from Blue Dragon King Reinhardt downward, are constantly polluted by the Divine Incarnation of [Nightmare].

Born as an activated knowledge, losing anchoring means they can’t hold on long, being dragged to the "Beastly side" is just a matter of time.

Activated Byron knew full well, under current circumstances, besides his own entity with cunning intelligence and scheming, no one else could successfully turn the tide.

The activated knowledge as a legendary Holy Spirit and Messiah held a belief entirely different from the entity’s "freedom," and that was to save the world!

To achieve this goal, even sacrificing oneself by stepping into the fray was with no hesitation at all.

"I’ve waited for you for a long time.

I was born from your achievements and legends, we are one entity, as long as you continue doing righteous things, I will always fully and resolutely support you.

My power and the Pirate Code’s equity are all handed to you.

If we have the chance to meet again next time, I hope you’ve become a true Messiah, keep it up!"

The voice belonging deeply to Byron himself sounded, with a tone that was carefree and composed, faintly seeing another self waving contentedly, transforming into light and disappearing, quietly merging into his "Divine Aspect."

Even the activated knowledge Byron understands, in this chaotic world, excessively morally upright heroes simply cannot save the world.
