Tantric family to divine dynasty

Chapter 115 The War Begins

Although King Siyat tried to imitate the most powerful Lorne Empire, set up a national standing army across the country, and gradually established the concept of a nation-state, he was unable to take back the land and force of many nobles.

The local aristocracy in each province is still extremely powerful. They even usurp the fruits of reform, directly control the power of the standing army, and still exist as local warlords in the form of families.

The military force in Siyate is particularly powerful, and the noble families that occupy the most land are the eight noble families including the royal family.

Most of the land in the entire Siyat Kingdom is actually directly or indirectly controlled by their eight noble families.

In fact, the four eastern kingdoms including Siyat, Rhea, Valere, and Kania were jointly established by ten large families who were expelled from the center of the continent by the Lorne people.

The eight noble families of Siyat, plus two other large noble families existing in other eastern countries, have been waging wars and often marrying each other for hundreds of years, and have always stood in high positions and ruled many small nobles.

They are collectively known as the "Ten Pillars" of the east of Oden.

Even the royal families of the four eastern countries are actually the strongest among the ten pillar families.

Because of the sabotage actions carried out by the Poseidon Order in the East Coast Province, the Church of Storms and the Siyat royal family finally reached the point where they could no longer tolerate it.

They were determined to completely wipe out the Poseidon Cult lurking in the White Sea area.

However, although the Poseidon Order is not a powerful force on land at all, it is extremely difficult to conduct a naval war of annihilation against them. Si Yat must gather the strength of the whole country to fully prepare.

A year passes quickly.

The war jointly organized by the Church of Storms and the Governor of the East Coast finally began. Not only the Siart Kingdom army under the Governor was put to death, but also the private armed forces of nobles from various places were forcibly recruited as the main force.

Earl Hoven, the governor of the east coast, is the head of the Siyat branch of the "Ten Pillars" Lihoven family.

The Huo Wen family is also known as the "Broken Giant Family". Among the several bloodlines the family has, the most powerful one is the "Demigod Bloodline - Broken Giant".

Among the four eastern countries, the most powerful Huowen family is in Kania in the north. The Huowen family has successfully overcome all obstacles in Kania and became the royal family in Kania decades ago.

Count Hoven, the most powerful man on the east coast, secretly supports the Eagle family and makes them rival the Lion family. And everyone knows one thing, behind the Lion family there must be the support of the "Ten Pillars" family, but it's just a matter of time. Few people know which one it is.

Nasir Town.

In the reception room of Fisher Manor, Byrne spoke very respectfully to an important member of the Lion family.

He is in his thirties, of medium build, wearing a black Siyat military uniform, without a beard, and his eyes are always serious.

"Let's talk about it then. It's time for me to go."

Abel Rhine put down the black tea in his hand and shook his head.

He is the most outstanding of the many cousins ​​of Viscount Best, a lieutenant colonel in the Siart Kingdom Army, and a powerful blood knight who has successfully reached the upper level of qualitative transformation.

Byrne smiled and said with respect in his tone:
  "As for the supply business of medicine and food, the Fisher family is willing to cooperate with the military. By the way, I brought some gifts to you and the Viscount. I hope you can accept them, Lieutenant Colonel Abel."

Although the war had begun, the Fisher family did not go to the battlefield.

Because their family owns a food processing factory and a pharmaceutical factory, plus the relationship with the Lion family, it is logical that they will be responsible for a small part of the logistics of the war.

Although Siart's royal army is nominally controlled by Earl Hoven, who has no dealings with the Lion family, in fact, he is not the one who can control everything in the army.

There are two specific important reasons. The first reason is that the Hoven family in Siyate is already in dire straits.

Count Hoven, the only one who inherited the bloodline of the "Broken Giant", was once considered to have monarch-level strength.

Until a year ago, Count Huo Wen's true level was accidentally revealed. It turned out that the powerful monarch's aura was actually just a disguise through his bloodline characteristics.

Count Huo Wen's real strength is only the "transformation period" at the peak of the second level. Although he is only one step away from the monarch level, among the ten people who reach the "transformation period", not one of them may truly become a monarch. Strong.

According to Siat's rules, if a member of the family has not been a monarch-level transcendent for more than fifty years, the corresponding title of great nobility will be taken back by the royal family.

The last powerful person in Siart's Huowen family to reach the level of monarch was the grandfather of Earl Huowen, who died a full twenty-five years ago.

That is to say, if Earl Hoven fails to successfully break through to the monarch level in the next twenty-five years, his title of earl will be withdrawn, and the power status of the entire family will collapse.

The second important reason is that in the past year, Byrne has learned about the real backer of the Lions family.

It turns out that Viscount Best is actually the spokesperson of the Roman family in the East Coast Province.

After going round and round, it turns out that the Fisher family is still a vassal of the Roman family. But then again, the Luomen family itself is almost unaware of Fisher's existence, which confirms a famous saying about vassal relations.

The power of the "Family of the Night", the Roman family, is extremely huge, even ranking second among the eight noble families in Siart, and its strength is second only to the royal family, the Yardley family.

The Black Iron Duke of the Luomen family is a top powerhouse who has reached the middle level of a monarch.

Among the eight noble families in Siart, apart from the royal family, there are only three top families: the "Dark Night" Roman family, the "Misty" Abernathy family and the "Burning Blood" Castleton family, all of which have top powerful men in the middle of the monarchy. .

"I can accept the gift, but you have to handle things properly."

Abel Rhine stood up slowly, and before leaving, he still ordered very seriously:

"I have given you the orders for food and medicine, and the next time I come back, I will have someone bring the funds to pay for the orders."

"My cousin trusts you very much. I hope you can successfully deliver the goods when the time comes, and the quality must not be bad. Do you understand? The fact that the Royal Army can hand over part of the production of military supplies to you is the guarantee of the Lion Family."

"This matter is very important!"

Byrne understood very well what Abel said. They were able to take part of the military supplies order entirely because of the rewards from the Lion Family, otherwise they would not be qualified at all.

And they not only have to ensure the quality of military supplies, but most of the profits they get afterwards have to be handed over to the Lion family.

Every small family that is attached to the Lion Family will make offerings, and most of the benefits gained by the Lion Family will naturally be given to the Luomen Family.

"Fischer's factory will never lag behind. Everything on the order will be made to the highest standards. We are not idiots and we will certainly not make any mistakes on these things."

Byrne made a solemn promise, and Abel Rhine finally left with satisfaction.

He smiled and sent off the officer from the Lion family in person. When Lieutenant Colonel Abel completely left Nasir Town, Byrne finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now he is well aware of the power of the Lion Family.

Viscount Best Rhine, Lieutenant Colonel Abel Rhine, and the mysterious "Black Lion".

The power they possess is completely unmatched by the ordinary Viscount family. There are three strong men in the family who have reached the upper level of qualitative change.

In addition, the Lion Family can also find many external aids from churches, secret organizations, illegal supernatural beings, and even powerful help from the Luomen Family.

Moreover, although Viscount Best himself had not officially taken action for many years, he had a brilliant record of killing two high-ranking Rhea nobles with one against two with his own hands.

His nickname at that time was not "the fox who leads the lions", but "the king of the iron-blooded lions".

Byrne, who was standing at the entrance of the town, raised his head and stared at the two dazzling suns in the sky. He did not turn back for a long time.

He couldn't help but feel an extremely strong desire deep in his heart.

"Sooner or later, the fishermen of Nasir will be on equal footing with the mighty lions."

The two factories in Nasir Town were busy producing. In order to successfully complete the orders of the Royal Army, the Fisher family chose to recruit workers for expansion.

Over the course of a year, the population that gathered in this port town was already growing day by day, and the beginning of the war attracted more and more people.

When the order for the Royal Army was successfully delivered, everyone in the Fisher family jumped for joy.

Even excluding the share to be provided to the Lion Family, they still made a net profit of 3,500 gold coins, which is undoubtedly an unprecedented huge gain!
  Irene felt that the family had not held a sacrifice of sufficient standard for a long time, so she asked Byrne to go to the Alchemy Council on the surface and purchase one or two treasure-level mysterious objects as sacrifices.

"The Fisher family is prospering now, it must be because of God's continuous blessing. We have to thank the great Lord of the Lost."

More than ten days later, Byrne returned from Fein City carrying two mysterious treasure-level items, and all the 3,000 gold coins he originally brought with him were consumed.

The sacrificial ceremony to thank the Lost Lord began again, and the seven core members of the Fisher family gathered in the basement.

Irene knelt on the ground, with everyone from the Fisher family behind her. She took out two completely different treasure-level mysterious items with great respect.

The first mysterious item is a silver-gray ring that glows red, the "Silver-Gray Surgery". The other mysterious item is a purple ribbon that twists like a snake, the "Spirit Snake."

"Great Lord of the Lost, the Fisher family is full of sincere gratitude to you. I will present you with two precious sacrifices, hoping to bring you a moment of joy."
