Chapter 306 The Secret of Shadow Island

Wow, I caught up, this chapter is really updated! Hongchen has regained his moral integrity.

——————————

Seeing that Yorick had no intention of agreeing with the archer's proposal, Yu Fei lost his patience to continue persuading him. The mental power quickly dominated the body of the archer who was negotiating with Yorick, and a strong mental power entered Yorick's mind through the archer's eyes.

Yorick, who was attacked by Yu Fei's mental power, fell into a state of crazy shaking, and the pirates behind him were naturally shocked to see this situation. It was obviously caused by the hateful guy in the black robe, but the pirates behind Yorick were emotionally agitated, but they did not move for the time being.

There may be fools among pirates, but none of them are ignorant of the times. Why didn't Yorick do anything unfavorable to the archer who came to the ship alone before? Of course, he took into account the other hippogryph knights and storm crows.

Since these pirates are the "essence" of the Anchor Pirates, they are naturally not stupid. Not to mention that Yorick was just having a fit, even if he was killed by the black-robed man, the pirates might still react. But Yorick's life was not in danger, so the "elite" pirates were still prepared to wait and see.

They knew that if they killed the enemy on the ship, the big birds flying in the air in the distance would definitely fight to the death with the pirates. Judging from the speed of the big birds' pursuit before, it was several times faster than the sailing speed of the ship. I'm afraid that no ship of the Anchor Pirates could escape the pursuit of the big bird troops.

But soon, the pirates breathed a sigh of relief because their leader recovered from the fit. Yorick, who had returned to his normal form, said coldly to the archer on the opposite side: "We, the Anchor Pirates, are a group of pirates who advocate freedom. We will never surrender to others!"

After a pause, Yorick continued: "These two boxes of treasures represent the bottom line of the Anchor Pirates. If your master accepts this apology, everything will be fine. But if we must surrender to him, then we can only fight to the death."

The pirates behind Yorick had no time to think about why their captain suddenly fell into a state of tremors and suddenly recovered. They were all moved to tears by the words "We are a group of pirates who advocate freedom" and "We can only fight to the death."

Fuck Captain Yorick, you are so domineering! This is the temperament of a great pirate! This is why you are the captain of the pirates and we are just subordinates! You advocate freedom! But we don't!

Fighting for the life of the peat! That black-robed lord, can we surrender! We are not in the same group with him! Our lives are precious, not to be fought for! Fighting hard will make you die faster! He shouted these words in his heart, but on the surface, the pirates did not react to Yorick's words.

Yorick has been gaining prestige in the Anchor Pirates for a long time. Although the pirates were very puzzled and dissatisfied with his tough attitude at the moment, they did not dare to oppose him face to face. They were ready for the black-robed man on the opposite side to get angry and attack the big bird troops behind, and they also held their weapons tightly and were ready to deal with an enemy first.

However, what surprised all the pirates was that the black-robed man hesitated for a moment, nodded, put the two boxes of treasures on the back of the big bird that landed on the deck, and left.

Are you kidding us? ! The pirates were stunned by the magical scene in front of them. Judging from the black-robed man's previous attitude, it was obviously the kind of arrogant and domineering rhythm that if you don't surrender, I will beat you to death, and it is very cruel to beat you to death. But now he just left after his leader's tough words?

Watching the Hippogryph Knight and Storm Crow flying away in the distance, the pirates looked at Yorick as if they were looking at the emperor of the empire. Could the leader's shaking movements just now be a way to summon the gods? Otherwise, how could things develop like this? Or is the man in black and the master behind him simply a paper dragon?

Yorick ignored the pirates' admiring eyes, turned around and walked into his room, closing the door and not coming out.

Yorick at this time is no longer the original Yorick. Under the influence of Yu Fei's powerful mental power, although Yorick's strength is not weak, he is still affected. The current Anchor Pirates can be said to be under Yu Fei's control.

Although Yu Fei's forced control through mental power is not as stable as Ayushisa's charm, there are still many benefits. At least, the content about Shadow Island that Yu Fei is interested in can be found in Yorick's memory.

Shadow Island is indeed an island, but it is also the name of an alliance of pirates in the northern and eastern waters of Eslaze. Shadow Island is a relatively large island, and it is also a place where pirates often trade and rest. It is a territory that belongs entirely to the pirate forces.

Originally, the pirates were not bound by the organization, and each of them robbed the merchant ships they liked, and they were responsible for their own profits and losses. However, the existence of pirates is ultimately a thorn in the hearts of the chambers of commerce with shipping routes on the mainland, so decades ago, under the leadership of the Candela Business Kingdom Alliance, the forces with shipping routes jointly launched an operation to eliminate pirates.

Under the sweep of many large chambers of commerce fleets, the scattered pirates soon encountered a catastrophe. Not to mention looting merchant ships, even if they stay in their own bases, every pirate group may encounter the disaster of extinction at any time.

Under such circumstances, the Pirate Alliance naturally came into being. Some relatively powerful pirate groups gathered in Shadow Island, swore an oath of blood, and established an organization called Shadow Island.

After the alliance, the pirates' situation of being bullied and humiliated improved a lot. Under the organization of Shadow Island, the various pirate groups united to fight against the coalition forces of the Chamber of Commerce, and they were no longer at a disadvantage.

After all, the Chamber of Commerce is still mainly engaged in trade, and of course it is impossible for them to unite and sweep the sea for a long time. Not long after, seeing that they could not completely wipe out the pirate forces, they gave up.

However, the organization of Shadow Island was retained. The island of Shadow Island where the pirates formed an alliance has also become a holy place for pirates.

In the organization of Shadow Island, there are three largest pirate groups. They are the War Pirates, led by Hekarim; the Widow Pirates, led by Evelynn; and the Warden Pirates, led by Thresh.

The War Pirates are the strongest among the pirate groups under the Shadow Island organization. Their leader, Hekarim, was said to be a brave and skilled general in a human kingdom. He was very good at commanding wars and was even known as the "Shadow of War".

But unfortunately, a bloody plot of being too powerful to be the master appeared. At the time when the new and old kings of the kingdom were taking over, in order not to leave hidden dangers for the new king, the old king issued an order to secretly execute Hekarim.

Then, after some plots about love, hatred, and vengeance, Hekarim finally survived, fled to the sea with the charge of treason, and became a pirate. With its own strength and strong command ability, Hekarim's war pirate group quickly became the forefront of pirates.

The Widow Pirates are very distinctive, and all the members are women. This is a special existence in the sea where women are not welcome. Leader Evelyn was once the wife of the leader of a large pirate group, but in the anti-pirate operation before the establishment of Shadow Island, that large pirate group was destroyed.

Evelynn escaped, and as a woman, she quickly developed a huge force. However, her pirate group only accepts women, and they must be widows. The resentment of widows is imaginable, so the Widow Pirates gradually became one of the three major pirate groups in Shadow Island.

As for the Prison Pirates, they are even more bizarre than the Widow Pirates. The bizarre thing is that their captain is actually a dwarf! In fact, from the name Thresh, it can be seen that this captain should not be human.

Thresh is a Dark Iron Dwarf. He originally made a living by forging like other Dark Iron Dwarves in the human world. It is also a dog-blooded plot. Thresh, who offended a noble, was thrown into prison.

However, Thresh not only has the blood of the Dark Iron Dwarf, he is a dwarf of the mixed blood of the Dark Iron Dwarf and the Hill Dwarf. In the prison, Thresh, who had some atavism, broke the prison wall and escaped, killed the noble by the way, and then fled to the sea like Hecarim.

Most of the members of the Prison Pirates are prisoners in the human world. Thresh, who had lived as a prisoner for a while, seemed to be very sympathetic to the prisoners. He often attacked some prisons in the harbor to rescue prisoners and absorbed some of them into the group.

However, the strength of the Prison Warden Pirates is not that everyone was once a prisoner or a desperate criminal - who is not a desperate criminal when they are pirates? ! The strength of the Prison Warden Pirates lies in that, in addition to most of the members being human prisoners, a small number of members are aliens.

These aliens include dwarves, halflings, orcs, and even elves. Compared with ordinary humans, the strength of these aliens is generally much stronger. It is precisely because of this that the Prison Warden Pirates have become one of the three major pirate groups in Shadow Island.

After reading these secrets about Shadow Island in Yorick's mind, Yu Fei was excited. Isn't it like having a pillow when you want to sleep?

Yu Fei had a vague idea before. In order for his smuggling operation to proceed smoothly, the safety of the smuggling fleet must be guaranteed. However, the night elves could not always serve as the escort of the fleet, and although the night elves were strong, they were not invincible.

Originally, Yu Fei only vaguely felt that he should have his own power on the sea, but after the Shadow Isles organization, he had a clear idea.
