Outside the port of Belfort, a sailboat made of starlight broke the clouds in the night sky, and fell from the sky under the illumination of the crescent moon, slowly falling towards the Volcano.
The blue starlight sailboat made the sea surface look like a layer of blue gauze, and this appearance was very eye-catching.
People in Belfort knew that a cargo ship of a large shipping company was docked in the port recently. This shipping company was powerful and could run rampant in the waters of the Elba Alchemy Council, the royal family and the evil god cult. The starlight sailboat proved that the owner of the shipping company was back.
Rudolf and Yvonne landed on the Volcano. Yvonne's temperament was even more outstanding, especially her white and glowing silver hair and skin. The surrounding decks seemed to be illuminated.
The crew cast envious eyes one after another. The changes in Miss Yvonne proved that she had completed her promotion. The Volcano Shipping Company has one more level 6 apostle, and its strength is even stronger.
Cooper floated forward and asked, "Rudolf, did you bring me a lot of level 6 werewolf corpses?"
"Level 6 werewolf corpses? The wilderness is a powder keg now, I dare not stay any longer."
"Are the werewolves so lucky? Did the goddess of luck favor them? This is not your style?"
"Level 6 werewolves are also rare. They are not fish in the fish market, which are everywhere. I won't talk to you for now. Where is Mackenzie?"
Seeing Mackenzie coming up, Rudolf asked:
"Is the cargo ship full? Can we leave the port?"
Rudolf and Yvonne waited outside the level 6 werewolf tribe for half a month, which was enough time to fill the cargo hold of the Giant.
Mackenzie said, "It's full. We received a lot of shipping orders, all of which are for goods heading to Oyster Bay Port."
"Have you collected the things you need for promotion?"
"Almost all of them have been collected. The Black Gold Institute has a very good attitude and has allocated a lot of things for us."
"That's good. Notify them and we'll set sail at noon tomorrow and leave here."
Mackenzie didn't know why Captain Furnace was so anxious, but the captain must have his reasons for doing so.
The news he heard in the wilderness was too shocking, and Rudolph wanted to get away from here as soon as possible.
After Mackenzie left, Rudolph went to the Black Gold Institute alone.
In the VIP lobby of the Black Gold Institute, Celine saw the serious-looking Furnace. She was a little surprised. She didn't know why Furnace looked so serious after going to the wilderness.
After arriving at the VIP suite prepared for Rudolf, Rudolf asked: "Celine, does Black Gold have many branches in the Megwen Empire?"
"Yes, the Black Gold in the Megwen Empire is much more stable than here, and the knights' rule makes there rarely chaos."
"Celine, I want to inquire about the news of Hermes, the royal astrologer of the Megwen Empire, and his predictions."
It's not that he doesn't trust the predictions Mr. Butcher told him, but he wants to use this information to guess the reaction of other forces to the power of destruction.
Celine was stunned after hearing this. She has been staying in the Eagle's Beak Peninsula at the southern end of the Northern Continent and doesn't know the distant Megwen Empire in the north.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Furnace, I'll ask the intelligence trader of the Black Gold to see if I can apply for 'that' intelligence."
Seeing Celine's serious look, Rudolf felt that the Black Gold might really have obtained some valuable intelligence.
"Celine, given our relationship, you don't have to be so polite and formal, you can be more casual."
"My profession is a trading host, and my identity as a professional woman is also part of why you like me, so I want to stay true to myself."
Celine left with a smile, and Rudolf had no choice.
Half an hour later, Celine entered the VIP suite with a file bag.
"Mr. Furnace, this information involves the royal astrologer of the Megwen Empire, and the price is expensive."
"It doesn't matter, no matter how expensive it is, it is definitely within my ability to pay."
Rudolf is very rich, with the wealth of Red Beard and Giant Roberts, the rewards of the Golden Anchor Family, and a large number of Level 5 priest relics, so he can buy intelligence from the Black Gold without blinking an eye.
Celine said, "Mr. Furnace, we also learned what happened in the wilderness. Giants are collecting intelligence in the wilderness, high-level werewolves are crawling under the ancestral mountain, and the blood clan has walked out of the castle. It is extremely chaotic there. If I guess correctly, the information you want to know is related to the prophecy."
Opening the file bag handed by Celine, Rudolf quickly searched the contents of the file.
Royal astrologer Hermes has a high status in the Megwen Empire. Beside Emperor Megwen, there is always a chair prepared for the royal astrologer. Royal astrologer Hermes does not need to salute when he sees Emperor Megwen.
Hermes predicted and led the reform of the Megwen Empire, which made the national strength of the Megwen Empire reach a higher level. In the process of reform, he was promoted step by step and became a terrible level 8 word spirit step by step.
Hermes' promotion is inseparable from the cooperation of the Megwen royal family, which also makes Hermes offer absolute loyalty to Megwen IX.
Rudolf saw another important piece of information in Hermes' intelligence, which made Rudolf's pupils suddenly shrink.
Hermes' teacher, the imperial royal astrologer more than 200 years ago, also gave a prophecy about the authority of eternal life!
That prophecy is about the authority of "omniscience"!
Omniscience represents the authority of knowledge and logic. According to the prophecy more than 200 years ago, once you master the authority of omniscience, you can see through the secrets and learn all knowledge.
The evil god fraud regarded Rudolf as omniscience. It turns out that omniscience is really one of the authorities of eternal life.
From the perspective of the alchemist's crazy war, the authority of omniscience should belong to the alchemist.
In the Constitutional War more than two hundred years ago, the alchemist hung a nobleman on a street lamp and seized at least half of the power of the continent through the war.
The vigorous constitutional revolution was finally defeated by the knights and other apostles. The alchemist's constitutional war did not achieve a complete victory. This is why there are many constitutional monarchies on the continent now.
The war that changed the direction of the northern continent ended in confusion.
The owner of the omniscient authority, the Lord of Jupiter, is still in a state of chaos. No one knows whether the Lord of Jupiter exists or not, and no one knows who the Lord of Jupiter is.
From the perspective of the alchemist's ability to continue to improve, the omniscient authority has not been obtained by other apostles. However, judging from the evil god's fraudulent attitude, the omniscient authority has not been controlled by the alchemist.
It turns out that the major events in history are not just a struggle for power and resources, but also the promotion and planning of high-level apostles behind them.
For the 9th-level apostles, they have no shortage of wealth, status, or women. The only thing that can make them risk everything is the power of eternal life.
For example, now, the royal astrologer of the Megwen Empire has once again predicted the power of eternal life, the power of destruction, and the Lord of Neptune is about to be born.
This is another bloody storm. No matter how hard the low-level apostles try, they can only harm one street at most. Once the high-level apostles take action, half of the continent will fall into disaster.
Because it was a prophecy from more than 200 years ago, the Black Gold Institute happily gave it to him. Regarding the prophecy of the power of destruction that just appeared, the Black Gold Institute's information is no more than what Rudolph knows and guesses.
Rudolph closed the materials and sighed.
"How much is the price of this information? I'll pay you."
"Two level 5 magic weapons."
"What?!"
Rudolf used a lot of effort to keep himself from jumping up. Just reading a few lines of text would cost two level 5 magic weapons?
Rudolf thought that the price of this information was high, but he didn't expect it to be so high.
"Mr. Furnace, this information involves the royal astrologer of the Megwen Empire and the secrets behind the constitutional war. This is the lowest discount I can get for you."
Celine was about to cry. She had done everything she could. The Black Gold Institute's charges were indeed very high, but there was no way. The Black Gold Institute's pricing was within her authority to only get a certain discount.
"Okay, two level 5 priest magic weapons, keep your word." No matter how painful it was, Rudolf had to be tough:
"I'm rich! No problem!"
After leaving the Black Gold Institute, Rudolf walked towards the city center and came to the downtown County Court.
Hearing the visitor's identity, the witch hunter hurried to find the director and the director.
"Director Duke, you are the director of the Provincial Court of Justice. Why have you been staying in the county city of Belfort?"
Rudolf observed Duke's office and found that there were many daily necessities in this office, which did not look like a temporary office.
Duke smiled bitterly: "I also want to stay in Eagle's Beak City, the provincial capital, but there is no way. Belfort City faces the pressure of the evil god cult in the southern continent, so I have to stay here permanently. Mr. Furnace, what is the reason for you to take the initiative to find me?"
Rudolf said: "I want to know which evil god's believers have the most believers who have smuggled into the northern continent now."
"At the beginning, it was the suffering believers who were the least afraid of hardship and the torture of the harsh environment. Later, it was the annihilation believers. Now there are some other believers, but the annihilation believers are the main ones."
Rudolf frowned. Among the evil gods, is annihilation the one who is most interested in the power of destruction?
"I hope you can take precautions, but don't let the evil god believers build a temple. If there is an evil god temple in Belfort, I will never be able to come to this city again."
"I hope so. We are working hard. Mr. Furnace, can we cooperate in fighting against the evil god cult?"
"Limited cooperation is possible."
Duke was stunned. The last time he met Furnace, Furnace was still determined and only wanted to run his trading company and didn't want to care about the evil god cult. He went to the wilderness and actually gave in?
Rudolf was warned by the Pillar of Creation not to stop the evil god cult. The Pillar of Creation wanted chaos, even greater chaos. But now it involves the authority of the werewolves. Rudolf is afraid that this matter will affect Yvonne, so he wants to test the edge of danger. What if the Pillar of Creation has no time to care about him after the chaos comes?
"That's great. If we need anything again, we'll contact you."
At noon the next day, the Volcano and the Giant set sail, leaving Belfort Port and heading for Oyster Bay Port.
Although the big pirates disappeared, the merchant ships were even more frightened, because after the big pirates disappeared, more unscrupulous small pirates appeared on the sea. They didn't have ports like the big pirates, and they really lived purely on looting.
Moreover, the evil god navy also became extremely active. They constantly compressed the activity range of ships in the northern continent, and they were more like pirates than pirates.
Whether it was the small pirates or the evil god navy, they would silently change their course and avoid the two ships after seeing the volcanic flag.
The volcanic flag represents that the captain is the furnace, a shipping company that the small pirates can't afford to offend. The strongest pirate among the small pirates, the level 4 knight who just became famous, just died in the hands of the furnace not long ago.
The evil god cult even told each other that if they were not strong enough, they should not provoke the furnace.
Unless they were carrying out the important will of the evil god, the 8th level cardinal priests rarely left the temple where the evil god lived. The 7th level white magic high priest Hakob proved that the combination of the 7th level high priest and the artifact could not take advantage of the furnace.
Therefore, the evil god acquiesced that its navy and ships could take shelter after seeing the volcano flag.
This was a piece of news that was not officially released, but it was soon observed by other merchant ships. Wherever the Volcano sailed, the evil god navy would stay away from it, which was the best recognition of the strength of the furnace.
These factors made the Volcano Trading Company a unique shipping company on the Saragu Sea.
The route from Belfort Port to Oyster Bay Port was not safe, but the Volcano could pass quickly. The packed Giant made the trading company a lot of money, almost earning the promotion fees of the crew.
While watching the Giant unloading in Oyster Bay, Rudolf turned around and whispered to Mackenzie: "Mackenzie, go to the Black Gold Office here and see if there are any smugglers here. Is there anyone who dares to sell the Alchemy Council's stuff to Kordor Port?"
"Ah? Captain, are there really smugglers who dare to make this much money?"
"Haha, there are definitely some. There were so many people who collaborated with the enemy during the war. There were such people everywhere. Not only did they collaborate with the enemy, but they also became extremely rich by collaborating with the enemy.
The nobles lacked the weapons of the alchemists, and the alchemists lacked the food of the nobles. Both sides had a strong need to exchange what they had, but this need was difficult to achieve. Our strength and identity are just right for this."
That night, Mackenzie brought a smuggler to the Volcano.
The smuggler waited outside the captain's room, and Mackenzie went in first to talk to Rudolf about the simple situation.
"Captain, I have heard of the smuggler Snag before. It is said that he is a member of the Constitutional Army and has a channel to the South Continent to sell things to the South Continent. It was not me who found him, but he found me. He wanted to sell things to the Port of Khodor."
"Let him in."
Rudolf saw a middle-aged man with a big belly walking in. Because he was too fat, the slits between his eyes were very small.
From the sharp eyes in the slits, it can be seen that this is definitely a capable person.
"Respected Captain Furnace, I finally see you! I have wanted to see you for a long time, and today I finally see your face on this powerful Volcano!"
Rudolf smiled, not paying attention to his flattery, and asked: "Mr. Snag, I heard that you have some trade needs?"
