Chapter 131 Bloodbath

The Fisher family was despised and looked down upon by everyone, and the reason was actually very simple.

During the most difficult period of the war, they hid in the rear and produced military supplies, expanding production and using the war to make money day and night.

All other noble families on the East Coast were fighting on the front line, and some families were even destroyed. At this time, the Fisher family was still eating oil, which made people jealous.

In this case, it is meaningless to reason with the other party that "logistics is also part of the division of labor".

Moreover, the families are not a whole, and the money earned by the Fisher family did not enter the treasury, but went into their own pockets.

At the end of the war, when victory was about to be declared, they went to the front line.

According to the Eagle family, the Fisher family is a bastard who came to pick the fruits of victory. When the military merits were awarded, they would definitely rob many important merits of other families.

Now, not only the hostile families, but even the neutral families secretly felt that the Fisher family was too shameless.

After Byrne learned about the situation from the Lion Family, he explained to Irene and shook his head:

"According to them, our family seems to be really excessive, and in addition to nicknames like 'vampire' and 'cowardly fisherman', the Fisher Family now has a new nickname."

Irene frowned and asked immediately:

"What nickname?"

Byrne looked strange, shook his head and said:

"East Coast Giant Squirrels!"

Irene was stunned for a moment, then realized what it meant, but squirrels are better than mice.

A kind of giant squirrel is very common in the East Coast. They are very good at stealing fruits from fruit farmers. They are a highly skilled thief. Whenever the fruit farmers are busy and ready for harvest, the giant squirrels will move and wait for an opportunity to pick the fruits.

Byrne sighed and said, "It's actually quite fitting, but don't worry too much about reputation. After all, we have made a lot of money, and being scolded is just a small price to pay."

Erin thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Why doesn't the Lion Family help us explain? They just let their allied family's reputation deteriorate? Didn't you say that they value us very much?"

Byrne fell into thought and said after a long time:

"I'm afraid they won't think there's anything wrong with this situation. The worse our relationship with other families is, the more we can only rely on the Lion Family."

Erin was slightly stunned and soon understood the reason.

There are many indigenous slaves on this island. Even though slavery has been abolished on the surface, the Syat people still treat the islanders of the White Sea as slaves without hesitation, and the priests of the church did not object.

In addition, there is an extremely cruel "scenery line" on the island. The bodies of many island natives are strung together on one side of the island with long ropes, and their deaths are miserable.

They are all captured believers of the sea god, both men and women, young and old, and most of them starved to death here.

Byrne felt uncomfortable after seeing the "scenery". Many children had no choice at all. They could only become believers of the Poseidon Cult when they were born.

Irene was standing nearby and said calmly: "Don't forget Eric."

After hearing this, Byrne quickly recalled how Eric lost his father. It was because of an attack by the Poseidon Cult.

Thousands of people died in the attack of the Poseidon Cult in Nasir Town. He had no position to sympathize with the believers of the Poseidon Cult.

Moreover, when the Keith family was destroyed, although he did not do it himself, he also acquiesced to the killing of children.

"Well." His eyes became more determined.

In the meeting hall of the military camp on the island, there were officers of the Siat Kingdom Army, priests of the Storm Church, and major members of the noble families on the east coast.

The Siat royal family imitated the Loen people to reform the military system. The private armies of noble families in various places gradually transformed and became part of the Siat Kingdom Army, with a standing army.

But in fact, they were still privately owned by extraordinary nobles and were not directly controlled by the royal family.

Byrne came to the conference hall and listened to the adults' conversation silently.

The drunken Bishop of Storm was also present, with a cold face. He was the core figure of this war, followed by Assistant Priest Zain, Viscount Best, and Viscount Xavier.

As for Count Hoven, the governor of the East Coast, he did not come overseas.

Byrne knew that the main territories of the Hoven family were in other provinces. In fact, he had always been a little puzzled as to why Count Hoven was appointed as the governor of the East Coast by the royal family.

"Bad news, Byrne."

The person who suddenly came to Byrne and spoke was Lieutenant Colonel Abel, the younger brother of Viscount Best.

"I heard that the Hoven family has planned to replace the current mayor of Nasir Town and hand over the land to another viscount in the family."

"How the new viscount will treat the Fisher family at that time is uncertain. Maybe he will confiscate the factory and drive you to Urd."

Byrne's face suddenly changed drastically and fell into deep thought.

They were finally noticed by the people above.

For several years, the town of Nasir, managed by the Fischer family, has been honestly helping the depressed mayor pay taxes to the insane Baron Hoven.

The people on Baron Hoven's side looked at the increasing taxes and the large amount of private bribes, so they allowed the Fisher family to grow stronger, and everyone was in a state of friendship and mutual benefit.

However, although the two parties at the bottom are very friendly, the head of the Hoving family, Earl Hoving, the governor of the east coast, seems to have finally included the attack on the Fisher family as part of the game.

Since the rapidly developing Fisher family has become a loyal supporter of the Lion family in recent years, Count Hoven, who supports the Eagle family, will not want them to continue to have an easy life.

First, they were asked to go to the battlefield by name. Second, other family members were sent to manage Nasir Town. Next, it was unknown what Count Hoven would do.

Byrne immediately thanked him sincerely: "This is a big trouble. Thank you for informing me, Mr. Abel."

Lieutenant Colonel Abel thought for a long time and said:

"Most of your family's properties are in Nasir Town, which is really troublesome. Otherwise, we should move the factory to Urd Village in advance to avoid them finding reasons to confiscate it."

Moving a factory is not an easy task, and the place in Urd is not suitable for building a factory at all.

It was obvious that the officer in front of him didn't understand these things at all, and Byrne didn't know how to answer for a while.

In the past, the Fisher family was too small, and the aloof governor of the East Coast might not even remember the existence of Fisher, but in recent years, their family has gradually become famous on the East Coast.

And many times, being famous is not a good thing, especially for the weak.

During the war, the Fisher family relied on military orders to rapidly increase their wealth every year. Although it was still far behind those viscount families because of its short accumulation period, it was already among the top among many baron families.

There is no doubt that wealth is a source of envy.

A few days later, half of the warships set off on the bishop's orders to an island occupied by Poseidon believers.

The Fisher family was also in the formation, operating as the vanguard in a cruiser.

The first time they actually went to the battlefield, everyone in the Fisher family was very nervous, and everyone looked serious.

But things were much easier than expected. Perhaps because the target was not strong enough, or because the war had reached an advanced stage, the Poseidon believers on the island had little resistance and quickly surrendered.

However, several extraordinary beings from the Poseidon Order who surrendered were all taken away, and then were instantly turned into stone sculptures, destroyed, and killed by the Lion Family's ally, "Iron-Blooded" Viscount Odd, using a powerful transformation spell.

An extremely cruel burning, killing and looting began.

The deepest animal nature in their blood was aroused. After landing on the island, the Siyat people seemed to transform into demons. They did not hesitate to plunder anything they could see, killing and raping wantonly.

Everyone in the Fisher family was completely shocked. The soldiers who had been fighting on the battlefield for several years were fundamentally different from them!

They can be unscrupulous, put down all morals without hesitation, and do everything they can do.

Because there are no rules here that can punish evil deeds!

Allen looked hot and couldn't help shouting: "Let's grab it too. If we don't grab it, it will be too late!"

The Ver knights, Allen, his deputies, and many family soldiers were all ready to make a move.

The core members of the Fisher family all looked at the head of the family, Byrne.

Byrne was silent for a moment and said firmly:

"Take valuable things and attack immediately when encountering armed or supernatural island natives, but do not kill people who are completely defenseless, and never rape women."

"What a hypocrite!"

Allen couldn't help but sneer, and even said this to himself, while other members of the Fisher family had different ideas.

Chris, Erin, and Tio didn't care, but the two Silvers and the Ver Knight were very unhappy.

Byrne couldn't help but frown, but soon saw the approving looks of Eric, Archibald, and the Abbott brothers.

The sister of the Abbott family said happily: "The Redeemer will definitely praise your behavior."

After hearing what the other party said, Byrne couldn't help but think about it. The Lord of Redemption would never look good when meeting heretics.

Eric, Archibald, and the Abbott brothers and sisters... If they had just given an arbitrary order, they might be dissatisfied deep in their hearts.

And if Vanessa were here, she might not be able to bear it any longer and secretly take action to stop the atrocities of other Siyat people.

Something dawned on him.

As a family grows stronger and stronger, there will naturally be more and more people with various ideas and concepts, and the head of the family is an invisible balance of beliefs. The beliefs of each important member will converge on both sides of the balance, and the final decision will be made. The path the Fisher family takes to the future.
