0718 Dusk

Susan Morgan is a lunatic. Not only that, she is also the most terrifying and unreasonable kind of lunatic in the world.

Because generally speaking, those who are called madmen often have basic characteristics in behavioral and psychological disorders.

They are incompatible with society, and every move, every word and action is strange. They spread aura around their bodies and clearly tell others that they are not normal. This is the normal phenomenon.

But Susan Morgan is not like this.

She has clear mind, strict logic, accurate expressions, and keen thinking. She has outstanding temperament, wealthy family background, charming and outstanding speech.

She is like a perfect work of art created by a god named civilization and she has nothing to lack except emotions.

Susan Morgan is a ruthless logic machine. He does not love others, does not love himself, does not be happy, and does not fear. Family gains and losses are the highest standards in her logical system. Apart from that, everything can be given up.

So she doesn't act like a person.

Humans are the animals that are most dominated by emotions in the world. When facing problems, the brain will automatically perform a series of complex operations, substituting countless conditions such as likes and dislikes, pursuits, three views, and rules into variables.

Responsibilities are just one of countless variables, and in most operations, they cannot even be used as the main reference.

But for Susan Morgan, his responsibilities are all.

For the sake of family stability, she killed her ambitious relatives and exiled the rest of the ambition.

For the development of the family, she designed the murder of Lorraine, starting from Pavlomu's declaration of jihad, and continued for seven years.

In order to continue the family, she betrayed Alsace and gave up on herself.

Leaving Emmons at the estate is stupid from any perspective, but she must know where Lorraine is going and how she lives and does, which is crucial to Morgan's subsequent planning.

Adopting her born child to Aunt Froya in Philadelphia is not important to her.

Susan Morgan didn't care whether her child could survive. She just needed an excuse and a channel to legally hand over the Morgan family to the next heir she chose. That person is the so-called Aunt Froya, which can fundamentally avoid the possibility of the remaining Morgan's death in the struggle for family property after she disappeared.

In other words, her purpose of betraying Arthas was not to let her children live, but to let Lorraine know accurately after a crushing defeat. Since Lorraine could not obtain evidence, Morgan must live according to the rules of the civilized world.

That sentence is Susan's real request.

Her existence made Lorraine shudder, but while waiting for production and searching for the bloody crown, Lorraine still had to stay under the same roof with such a strange humanoid creature for a long time.

In nearly a month, Boston was initially identified as an Indian because of the cruel bloody murder of Morgan Manor, because the thugs were not only cruel but also greedy.

The beautiful Ms. Morgan disappeared, the silver tableware in the room disappeared, and even the safe in the lady's room was pried out from the wall. Only Indians in this world are so ostentatious and harsh!

Susan Morgan gave birth to a baby boy at Drake Dock in Rhode Island.

Lorraine fulfilled her promises, just as the British colonists allowed Mary Bonnie to give birth and adopted Cotton Jack's descendants to the ignorant peasant woman.

Drake's messenger dressed himself up as Santa Claus, secretly threw the transfer book of the child and Morgan's property in front of a dilapidated building in Philadelphia, and watched from the darkness as a hunched old woman picked up the man and the letter into the house.

A cheering sound soon broke out in the room, and then two swaddles were thrown out of the window from the attic on the third floor, bang!

Morgan's safe was also opened in front of Daniel, and neither used a password nor a key.

There are very few things in the cabinet.

There was a Kingston Bank's certificate of deposit worth 100,000 pounds, with deposits in 1716, probably one of the ways Morgan left for the family.

There are two land deeds, one is in the castle in Marseille and the other is in the villa in Genoa. Everyone's signature has nothing to do with Morgan, perhaps it is real estate that is compatible with the certificate of deposit, or perhaps it is another way of retreat.

The last one was a private hot-painted envelope with Henry Morgan. The envelope was already very old. According to Susan, the Pirate Emperor did not allow future generations to open the envelope, nor did anyone allow him to collect 21 tokens scattered outside.

After a hundred years, Morgan's envelope was peeled off for the first time, and a piece of parchment as big as a round cup holder fell out of it. There were no dots on the paper, no lines, no surfaces, nothing.

Lorraine silently patted Daniel on the shoulder.

"You've thought of it a long time ago, did you?" Daniel asked.

"I've just been a pirate, robbed the army, town and even the country." Lorraine didn't answer Daniel's question positively. "I know how difficult it is to accumulate a million pounds by robbery, not to mention that Morgan did not bury all his property in the soil, and 100 years ago, gold was much more valuable than it is now."

"Sure enough, I couldn't think of this." Daniel laughed out loud, "Henry Morgan left a map of the territory of the pirate empire, and Port Royal is the center of the map."

"This madman just wanted to boast about his life's merits, and then sat in the fire of hell, watching thousands of people die for this worthless thing!"

"He succeeded..."

...

November 25th, Thanksgiving.

Valkyrie's slender ship shadows are anchored in the open waters on the back of the Toutsbury Rock.

Things in the world are always filled with such wonderful and ironic coincidences. A few months ago, Alsace used the peaks of the sea to hide the Bloody Crown. A few months later, Lorraine used this huge reef as a beacon and threw out gloves at the enemy.

The boat was looking out.

Except for a few people who were ordered and bet on the northwest, 70% of their hopes were focused on the sea surface in the direction of Quebec.

Alsace did not disappoint Lorraine either.

At 10 a.m., the lookout player Busarien discovered traces of the Bloody Crown, with a distance of 41,000 and a speed of 5.5 knots.

Lorraine stood on the tallest sail truss and raised her look glass in that direction.

For the first time, he saw the first battleship owned by the Pirate World during the day.

Slim hull, red sails...

There were continuous wounds on her body, and there were obvious defects in the bow and stern stairs. The continuous patches were shot from the front to the back, leaving the cannon door, covering the entire ship.

Lorraine pulled the cable and jumped down from the mast tip, and walked quickly to Ann Drake.

"An, that ship appeared, and from her I saw Shaq fighting bravely."

An carefully supported the guardrail on the side of the ship and squeezed out a smile at Lorraine: "Shake died without humiliation, which means a lot to me."

"If you want to see her with your own eyes, I can let Henna hold you to the mast tip," said Lorraine. "You are the last family of Rice. I still insist that you shouldn't take the risk of your life. Carmen smuggled you into the boat, and she did something wrong."

"Miss Xavier is a kind lady." Ann's voice was soft and firm, "I want to watch the murderer who killed Shaq sink to the sea. If you throw me on the reef, I will never forgive you in my life."

"You are threatening me." Lorraine exhaled in depression, "Carmen."

Carmen stuck out his tongue behind Lorraine.

"I will tell you after the war that I will accompany An to the bottom cabin now. She has not gone out to sea many times, so you are responsible for taking care of her."

"Yes, my mighty and majestic captain..."

The annoying goblin finally disappeared.

Lorraine put down her arm, slowly, tightly grasped Shaq's knife hilt, and pulled it out suddenly.

clang!

"Gentlemen and ladies, we came to this sea today to end our long journey."

"The battleship 40 kilometers away from us is our enemy. Her name is the Bloody Crown. Her master is the last pirate king of the Caribbean, the Black Baron Pavlomu Artsace King."

"Three months ago, this highness and his sister used exquisite means to force me to go far into the deep sea, and sank the battleship, which was second only to Valkyrie and Drake's ship HMS Lion."

"If they could have successfully killed me at that time, they would have won. But they didn't."

"I'm back, with hatred, mission, and with you, to end this long, meaningless battle for the pirate emperor..."

"Let's go and sink her."

Lorraine raised her sword high and pointed straight towards the sky.

"The battle flag is rising!"

Kron slapped his mast heavily: "The battle flag rises!"

Valkyrie's battle flag was raised, the main mast was pure pansy on white without any attachment elements, the rear mast was the guardian of St. George, who symbolized England, and the front mast... was Susan Morgan.

"Closing the anchor and setting sail!"

Daniel, who had put down his heart, stood at the bow of the ship, holding the guardrail and shouted loudly: "Closing the anchor! Setting the sail!"

Four thick anchor chains rose under the drag of the winch, and the sail was the first to rise, followed by the wind-catching sail and the bow spinnaker.

Until all the auxiliary sails rise to the top and the anchor leaves the water, Valkyrie slowly starts.

The sail rose!

The huge sail spread out like a cloud, with only a slight blowing wind that has already increased the speed of the ship.

Bell pinched his handwheel and looked at Lorraine, who looked up at Henna with his head raised.

"The bloody crown at ten o'clock!" Henna shouted, "The distance is 40,000, the speed is 5.5, relative!"

Lorraine nodded slightly to Bell.

"The entire ship has a first-level combat readiness state, abandon the charge boat, and unrelated personnel are out of the cabin! Valkyrie, welcome the enemy and set sail!"

Bell tweaked the handwheel with a hula: "Right steer ten degrees, cut into the wind belt!"

"Valkyrie, set sail!"
