Pirate Kingship-Chapter 696 - 471: Joint Pharmaceuticals, Fleet Reorganization (6200)_2
Of course, this wasn't something Byron needed to worry about.
Edward, who has been cultivating at the Edge of the World for some time, and Dad, who is advancing towards the King of the Undying, will naturally arrange everything.
When Edward mentioned this, he noticed Anne's face showing interest, and he teasingly added:
"Speaking of which, our brotherly lifesaving favor is too significant; you can't repay it by being a workhorse in your next life, so you'll have to marry me right here.
Let's settle the big matter between us first, to prevent your old... old father-in-law from going back on his word.
I heard there's a Scientific Freak at the Edge of the World who was once a Tower Sequence Naturalist and has techniques to enable the undead to have offspring.
I've always thought that a Lich in armor looks cooler, don't you think a Lich paired with a Knight is simply fantastic... oww~"
He was elbowed in the stomach by Anne again.
Whether it's a Lich or a Headless Knight, they are all high-level undead creatures.
Their appearance and senses don't differ much from when they were alive, except their skin is overly pale, and they lack body temperature and heartbeat.
Once they reach the level of mythical creatures, they can freely switch between mythical form and human form, breaking the reproductive barriers between undead species. Once they reach a Fifth Order False God, the boundaries of life and death no longer matter.
Although Anne was embarrassed, she acknowledged Edward's words.
The six Headless Knights didn't have Byron's disguise abilities and were not suitable to remain in the Material World for a while.
Plus, needing strength to avenge the Duke of Demons, she quickly made up her mind:
"Alright then, my sisters and I will go stay at the Edge of the World for a while.
But I need to find a way to remind my enraged father to save his strength and not become the York Family's cannon fodder.
However, the Entire Nation of Hightins has entered wartime readiness, and the Law Network will surely be monitored.
There's no guarantee that my father doesn't have spies planted by the other side close to him, even a painting could become a tool for the Hell Painter's surveillance.
Trying to contact him won't be easy."
For the Marquis of Neville to successfully infiltrate and act as a "Heartfelt Trouble" launching a backstabbing move, the key is being unaware of being watched.
What Anne could think of, Byron naturally had already figured out, and he gave her a mysterious smile:
"Isn't that easy? Just use the most primitive remote communication method known to humans."
"The most primitive remote communication method known to humans? What's that?"
Anne tilted her head in confusion, ready to fall over again, prompting Edward to hastily reach out to help her straighten.
Byron stopped teasing, took out a golden card and waved it in front of her eyes.
"Of course it's... dream communication."
With that, he gifted Edward a Dream Execution ability stored in the Faustian Contract.
This was also a core ability from an Executioner at the Star Chamber Court, which could kill in dreams, so sending a dream was naturally easy.
Of course, Edward's promotion speed wouldn't be slower than the Transcendent officers under Byron, having long since advanced to a Third Order Law Mage.
The reason is not complicated; it was merely refined amidst chaos, perfectly fitting the promotion ceremony for a Law Mage.
If you ask a young person who hasn't stepped into society yet how a company or organization should be managed.
Many might not be able to answer that question.
In fact, when companies and organizations reach a certain size, they need to establish a complete set of management manuals, procedural documents, operational files, various records, and forms, weaving every workflow into a large net.
It is the establishment of a management system through systems.
Those managers are like "spiders" squatting at network nodes and centers.
The better the "net" is woven, the more it aligns with the actual situation of the organization, the higher the management efficiency will be.
The same goes for the Law Mages, who thrive in the legal system. The more people and territories they manage with laws, the more cases they adjudicate, the higher their rank will be. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Establishing a legal system from scratch is more effective than simply maintaining and operating someone else's system.
Even if it's merely the Three Laws: "Murder shall be punishable by death, harming someone shall require atonement, theft shall be punished."
As long as these laws are deeply rooted in people's hearts, convincing them with virtue, it can result in unexpectedly excellent positive feedback.
Of course, this "virtue" can be moral "virtue," or it can be martial "virtue," as long as it makes others submit.
When Edward was still in the belly of the Old Gods, he started the initial undead camp using a batch of spices Byron had given him.
Relying on "monopoly" and "exploitation," two of the most direct and effective big weapons, he managed the industry with flair and success.
Now, it has expanded into a coastal city at the Edge of the World, serving as the fleet base for the Blue Dragon King and the Phantom Fleet during their inter-world travels.
Its main business is exporting extraordinary materials produced in the Edge of the World's mines, farms, and plantations: Dust of the Undead, Bone Crystal, Demon-repelling Iron, Coffin Wood...; herbs: Finger Grass, Demon Cigar, Ink Ghost Umbrella, Blood Droplet Mushroom... to the Material World.
Using spices, a solid currency for recruitment and acquisition.
Nowadays, numerous estates and mines under his banner not only form a self-contained economic system but also set their laws, establish their own camps, can freely arrest and deal with undead laborers, truly becoming a "country within a country."
Even Byron's two former Mad Hunt servants, Falcon Alvin and Fat Dragon, joined Edward's forces after "resigning."
Edward enthusiastically introduced his industry to his fiancée and five "sister-in-laws" while reopening the inter-world passage with a pass.
