Tantric family to divine dynasty

Chapter 117 New Blood Recipient

Another year passed, and the Fisher family was suddenly spurned by many nobles on the east coast. The reasons were complicated.

The initial stage of the maritime war was not smooth. There were too many thousands of islands in the White Sea, and the number of the Siyat alchemy battleships was too few.

The Alchemy VII type sailing battleship of the Siyat people has low sides, horizontal sails, and cannons on both sides. It uses alchemy to enhance the overall power and defense. It is famous in the four eastern countries for its strong maneuverability and sturdy hull.

Its disadvantage is that the constant resource requirements for medium and large-scale alchemical formations are extremely high, resulting in a sharp increase in the cost. In the end, the number of battleships that the Siyat people can build is relatively small.

The Rhythians' navy was very poor. Back then, the Siyats relied on their maritime superiority to severely damage the Rhythians. The Alchemy VII battleship was even called the "devil's ship" by the Rhythians.

But during the war between the Siats and the Poseidon Order, the situation was completely reversed.

The hundreds of thousands of members of the Poseidon Order are scattered on thousands of islands. Often when an enemy approaches, they immediately hide in the sea through the support of the Sea Tribe, without confronting the Siyat army at all.

When the Siyats stayed at sea until they were tired enough, the Poseidon Order drove the sea tribe to attack directly from the bottom of the sea. In the early stages of the war, the Siyats suffered heavy casualties.

Even though the Storm Bishop changed his past decadence and rushed to the sea hurriedly, launching land-washing strikes again and again, the Poseidon Order still fought according to the terrain.

There has always been a very important rumor that the Poseidon Order has given birth to a new monarch-level powerhouse, so the Church of Storms and the Siat nobles have been on guard for a long time.

It's just that the war has been going on for two full years, and no one has encountered a powerful enemy at the monarch level. In the end, it can only be attributed to rumors deliberately released by the Poseidon Order.

As for why the Fisher family was spurned by many nobles, it was of course because they had been hiding behind everyone and making money while many noble families had members killed or injured.

During the two years of war, the Fisher family's factory worked almost day and night, and the workers rotated their jobs. Every week, various energy-boosting foods and medicines for recovering injuries were sent to the front line.

The Garcia family and the Eagle family have denigrated and attacked the Lion family on various occasions, and Fisher has been their target repeatedly recently.

Everyone is working hard on the front line, fighting the ugly sea tribes at the bottom of the sea every day, but the Fisher family, as a vicious dog under the sick lion who can make money, constantly sucks the blood of the Siyat people!
  To be honest, Byrne felt that this statement was unreasonable. The military supplies produced by the Fisher family had never cut corners and had always been very responsible.

And logistics is very important in the war. Although they only get a small part of the orders for munitions, without the Fisher family's factories to continuously produce munitions, it will still have a certain impact on the front line.

However, the nobles who went to the battlefield together were naturally more sympathetic, and public opinion was soon skewed. The Fisher family began to be spurned by the upper class circles on the East Coast, and even earned the nicknames "Vampires" and "Cowardly Fishermen".

Not long ago, a viscount openly brought out a live fish at a banquet, hoping that "fisherman" Byrne could process it on the spot, which made many people burst into laughter.

Byrne, who is already thirty-one years old, is not angry. There is a price to pay for making money. It doesn’t matter if you let them scold you. Anyway, those who really dare to scold them in person are enemies of the Lion family. It is impossible to fight with the Fisher family. friendly.

And they are smiling happily now, but they looked really embarrassed when the sea tribesmen broke through the bottom of the boat at sea.

Finally, Yag, Sava, Inna, and Momir also returned from the military academy in Fein City.

Just like Eileen said long ago, they will definitely return to the Fisher family.

Because Fisher had already tested their loyalty before sending them away. If they were the kind of people who had no sense of belonging to the family, they would not be selected at all.

Byrne and others are not fools, how can they waste money and connections to cultivate people who will not belong to the family.

Thus, a new ritual of loss is about to begin, and a new blood recipient will be born in the Fisher family.

-

Fisher Manor, in Eileen's bedroom.

Erin, who was wearing black clothes, sat calmly on the bed and looked at her younger brother Chris standing in front of her. The boy was already taller than her and even just a little shorter than Byrne.

She reached out and took his hand.

"What on earth do you think, Chris."

"..."

Chris was silent. Irene knew that he had a boring personality and didn't care. Instead, she continued talking.

"You are already sixteen years old and have held an adult ceremony. Even though I have never discussed this matter with you before, I must talk about it now."

She hesitated for a moment and then said tactfully:

"Do you like Vanessa? How much do you like her? Do you want to be with her no matter what, or can you compromise?"

"Compromise" contains many meanings. How to understand it depends on everyone's specific judgment.

Chris was still silent, just staring calmly at the sister who loved him the most.

"..."

Erin was silent for a while before she couldn't help but continue preaching.

"Chris, I hope you can give birth to a child in the next two years. You also know the situation of our family. In fact, every additional child will be very important."

"The situation between Byrne and Margaret worries me a lot. He feels very guilty from the bottom of his heart. He can compensate her for almost everything except family interests, and he will never force Margaret to have another child. "

"Actually, I also feel very sorry for Margaret..."

Eileen couldn't help but sigh and continued:

"And I know your character best. Emotionally, you are a thousand times more awkward than Byrne and I. Alas."

"..."

The handsome Chris still didn't reply, but remained silent. The atmosphere gradually became awkward. It wasn't until Erin stood up to leave that Chris slowly asked:

"I want her to be a wife."

Erin stopped and looked at her brother.

She originally wanted to say something like "Then help her become stronger" or "Make her worthy of you", but when she saw Chris's determined eyes, she recalled what Vanessa had heard in private through the mystic technique. There was a lot of crying in the room, and suddenly I couldn't say those words anymore.

So, Eileen finally just replied: "Okay, but you must become happy."

The two siblings who left the room met many servants in the corridor, and they all greeted them respectfully.

"Hello, Ms. Eileen", "Master Chris"...

The two quickly came to the basement of the manor and started preparing things for the loss ceremony in advance. In half an hour, members of the Fisher family would arrive one after another, and the loss ceremony would officially begin in two hours.

The third person who came was Momir. After nodding with the two, he knelt down quietly beside him, closed his eyes and prayed softly.

According to the plan formulated by the Fisher family, the calm Momier will become a new professional "policeman" in the future and collect relevant intelligence.

Irene felt that Mormir had a good chance of becoming a "pious man", and his deep faith in the Lost Lord was extremely high.

Momir's parents both died from the Children of the Abyss summoned by the Poseidon Order.

He personally worships the Lost Lord who destroyed the Children of the Abyss, and feels that only the great Him can completely change the increasingly chaotic and desperate world.

Then came Yag and Sava. The two who were at war with each other a year ago are now almost inseparable. One is smooth and easy-going, the other is violent and aggressive, but they have become as close as brothers.

With sunny blond hair and full of aristocratic temperament, the smiling Yager immediately looked at the high altar and was attracted by the great sacred object that changed the Fisher family.

"Dean Eileen, I feel very honored. I have been waiting for this day for a long time and finally see Him. Finally..."

The next people to come were Byrne and Tio.

"Sorry, I was too busy. Did I almost come late?" Byrne asked immediately.

"No, there is still a lot of time." Erin shook her head.

Byrne is indeed very busy. The organizational structure of the Fisher family is getting bigger and bigger, and he is obviously too busy to handle it alone.

Vanessa, Archibald, Eric and others also arrived one after another.

Chris and Vanessa stared at each other for a moment.

The last person to come was Inna. She looked very nervous and anxious, completely speechless.

Byrne and Irene quickly realized something was wrong with her. Byrne nodded, and Irene took Inna to the corner and said:
  "Inna, the ceremony is about to begin. Are you afraid? What's going on?"

Inna turned pale and said, "I, I'm scared, sorry, Dean, but I'm really scared."

Erin frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Are you afraid of our master?"

Inna's legs were weak and her petite body almost lost her balance. She immediately shook her head and said with a cry:
  "No, no, no, no, I shouldn't be afraid. I'm sorry, Dean Irene. I know that the Lord of Loss is the greatest existence. He will give us strength and everything!"

Eileen was silent for a moment and said slowly:
  "As I said, the disappearance of that town was not done by us, Inna, but by those impostors who should have sunk into the abyss. My Lord is not an evil god... and you are not here to be a sacrifice."

Inna lowered her head and trembled, but Irene already understood what Inna was afraid of.

The notoriety of the Lost Believers had spread through the newspapers.

The people on the east coast, and even most of the Siyat people, all know that there is an extremely evil sect, the Lost Order, who madly sacrifice an entire town to the evil god!
  And she was the most suspicious child, fearing that everything in the past few years was a scam, and that she would soon happily become a pathetic sacrifice to the evil god.

In fact, this method is not uncommon among heretical groups. Many low-level believers will become sacrifices to mysterious beings in a daze.

Although she could understand it, Irene was still unhappy, and she stopped comforting Inna with a straight face.

"The time is coming, get ready."

She said coldly: "Even if you really want to be a sacrifice, you are not qualified yet."

The Lost Ceremony was about to begin in half an hour, and just when Yag and the others thought they were the only new blood recipients, another person suddenly arrived.

The man is shorter, wearing a black suit, a mustache, his hair meticulously combed, and his eyes full of respect.

Grandma Nada's eldest son, Moore Shelby, is the leader of the Brotherhood of Short Knives.

There was still blood on Moore's face and he was panting. He immediately bowed and said to Irene:

"I'm sorry, Ms. Eileen, I'm late, but there is something that needs to be dealt with in Dongcheng District, but I have solved it now."

Yager's smile gradually disappeared a little, and it turned out that it was not just the people from Dawn Orphanage who were going to be bloodied.

Erin nodded and said calmly: "It's okay, Moore, find your place, the ceremony is about to begin."

When Moore stood behind, she slowly said:
  "We will lead you to the spiritual world in the dream to witness His greatest power. You will accept the blood of the Fisher family full of extraordinary destiny and gain power that transcends mortals!"
