Chapter 194 Lillian's First Sacrifice
The Black Iron Duke of the Luomen family.
He and King Siyat worked together more than a hundred years ago to build the country they are today. Everyone in the four eastern countries knows the reputation of the Black Iron Duke.
As a top powerhouse among the monarchs, the Black Iron Duke was already famous before Si Yat existed. He once teamed up with King Si Yat to fight against a powerful monarch in Lorne. Although the two lost, it was an honor. Successfully luring the enemy, escaping, and achieving a major strategic goal was regarded as a lifelong shame by the powerful monarch.
That old man was also the beginning of the Fisher family's entry into the aristocratic system.
He gave the Fisher family an official ticket because of Lucius's heroic sacrifice.
Byrne calmly opened the black letter and couldn't help but frown after reading the contents.
He could be sure that the content written in this letter indeed came from the Dark Iron Duke and was not a forged letter by others.
Because the letter has a strong aura specially attached to it by a powerful person at the monarch level. It can only come from the Black Iron Duke himself, like pig iron, a weapon, a blade, cold and biting.
It seems that nothing in the world can soften it, and everything will be penetrated by a hard and fierce breath.
"Only a strong person at the middle level of the monarch can retain his aura for such a long time without dissipating at all..."
Byrne took a deep breath, and then read the contents of the letter, a huge shock gradually appeared in his eyes.
He quickly squeezed the envelope tightly and frowned.
"This matter is too important. It may require a vote by family members to decide..."
There was some disbelief on his face, and then he started to think seriously.
"This matter may not require a vote at all, because we have to do it, but if the Fisher family does it according to the content of the letter, they will take great risks. However, although I can defy Ariel Luomen, but the Fisher family The Sher family cannot disobey the Black Iron Duke at all..."
"Especially now that I have seen the contents of this letter, the Fisher family cannot refuse."
Byrne closed his eyes and frowned.
The Dark Iron Duke hopes that the Fisher family can help them transport a specialty of the Sunless Sea, "death ashes".
That specialty looks like black ashes, but at the moment of contact, you will hear howls of fear and despair. It comes from the corpses of residents of the Sunless Sea and is widely used in the sacrificial activities of various evil cults.
Basically, those large-scale cult group sacrificial rituals must use "death ashes" to complete.
All orthodox churches strictly prohibit the sale of "ashes of death". Those involved in the sale will be punished as colluding with a heretical sect, and the consequences will be extremely serious.
"This letter just slapped me in the face. There was absolutely no room for the Fisher family to say no."
Byrne let out a long sigh. If it weren't for the influence of the Luomen family, the Lion family would not have been able to obtain the East Coast Province so easily. And the Fisher family would not have been able to obtain the land of the four towns so easily. Something relaxing.
"Since the Fisher family enjoys the protection of standing in line, there is no doubt that they have to bear the corresponding risks."
They have to do what the real boss tells them, and they have to do it well. There is no choice!
And as long as the Fisher family does this, it will be completely and deeply bound to the Luomen family in the future, just like the various tests they have been giving to the Dawn Walkers.
"As for the issue of the successor of the Luomen family, we must be cautious in taking sides in this matter. It is best to find a way to know the attitude of the Black Iron Duke himself."
Byrne opened his eyes, his eyes filled with thoughts. He knew very well that the consequences of taking sides internally were serious, and that along with the risks were high benefits.
"The good news is that because of Chris's existence, at least the Fisher family now has the qualifications to take sides among the big shots. The bad news is that taking sides also means high-risk gambling. The always cautious Fisher family has to Take risks."
The impending death of the Black Iron Duke will undoubtedly be the top priority that causes turmoil in the entire Seat. The Luomen family does not know how to deal with it at that time. And if the Luomen family falls into internal strife again, the consequences will be disastrous.
The attraction of this matter is definitely not small. At the maximum level, it is speculated that it may even lead to the subjugation of Siyat.
Byrne shook his head and finally decided to attend tonight's sacrifice to the great Lost Lord.
“It looks like another vote on the scale of faith is needed.”
In the sacrificial hall on the second underground floor of Fisher Manor, everyone was already waiting eagerly, and every member of the Dawn Order stared at the new priest with respect.
Soon after Bai En arrived, the sacrifice officially began.
Lillian has rehearsed countless times and can remember every step of the sacrifice prescribed by Irene, and all her movements are completely in line with the rules.
What they want to sacrifice are two top-level treasures and wonders, namely "Rupture" and "Pure White Glove", to thank the great Lost Lord for another miracle.
"Great Lord of the Lost, please accept our pious sacrifice..."
Lilian closed her eyes and murmured to herself, the piety on her face undisguised.
Karl stared at the new priest of the Fisher family, Lillian, Byrne's daughter.
After returning a few years later, her thinking seems to be a little more extreme than that of Irene. In addition, Lilian and the spiritual dragon have also become excellent companions.
"Spiritual dragon?"
The spiritual dragon grows very slowly. After many years, it is still a small "baby dragon". I am afraid that it will not truly reach adulthood when Lilian's generation generally passes away.
"That thing, although it is said to be a dragon, is actually not."
Karl has long known that the spiritual dragon is a strange and mysterious creature.
It absorbs spiritual power to grow, but it is not actually a real dragon, just like the whales in its hometown. Although they look like fish, they are not actually fish, but a mammalian creature.
"The dragon is just its simulated appearance. That liquefied form is closer to the real body."
In fact, after Irene's death, she brought back a lot of spiritual power, and with the addition of two top-notch treasure-level mysterious items, Karl clearly felt that the fourth seal was loose.
"It's just that there's still a long way to go before it's completely broken."
To break through each seal, it requires much more spiritual power than the previous seal, and Karl also noticed that starting from the third seal, completely breaking through the seal also requires qualitative aspects of spiritual power. .
"The Tree of Resurrection..."
Karl gave Lilian the rune power "Tree of Resurrection" without hesitation.
Lilian burst into tears, unable to control her emotions, as if from this moment on, it already represented a kind of inheritance belonging to the priest.
Later, Karl gave Lillian a new destiny.
She didn't have any special fate track, so Karl started to play with the fate track, and he could clearly see the strings of fate trembling slightly.
First time dialing!
Some causes and effects in the world have quietly changed!
A new destiny trajectory appears.
"The Last Madman"
People with the destiny trajectory of "The Last Madman" will become increasingly crazy, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, and will gradually not be understood by the world, and at the same time they will not understand the entire world.
However, they can make the real world change little by little towards their own understanding, and everything will suddenly change based on what they think in their hearts, turning reality into reality.
"Isn't this thing just the heart..."
Karl can truly feel that this is a very powerful destiny trajectory.
However, it is extremely unstable, especially since Lillian is a priest of the Fisher family. If she goes crazy, she may accidentally ruin the entire family.
"And its effect must have an upper limit. The benefits won't be too extraordinary, and the cost and risk are too high. So let's forget it..."
He can only change the trajectory of fate for the second time!
The next destiny trajectory has already begun.
"Bone-penetrating Knife"
Combat-type destiny track, and those with this destiny track will be more likely to break through the enemy's defense when fighting.
Not interesting.
"It's just too ordinary. Let's do it again for the last time!"
He was not convinced by his luck, so he changed the fate track for the third time, but the result was not particularly good.
"anecdote"
People with the "odd news" fate track will smell many things that ordinary people cannot detect, and many times, they will fall into special situations and encounter more dangers and opportunities.
Karl was silently lost in thought.
"It would be great if it just encounters opportunities, but its host will also encounter risks. If they offset each other, the effect of this destiny trajectory is not particularly good."
Every time the destiny track is turned, the spiritual power is consumed a lot, and Karl's recovery of spiritual power has been very slow.
He must also have enough spiritual power to deal with possible situations. In the end, he did not change his destiny again, but kept the "odd news" destiny to Lilian.
As for the runes formed by the two mysterious items "Rupture" and "Pure White Glove".
Karl thought for a while and tried to give Darren the power of the "ruptured" rune from a long distance away.
It worked.
Although the distance was too far, he could not specifically perceive the details of Darren's situation, but perhaps because he had been able to touch his destiny, he had a vague feeling of strangeness.
Then he knew that Darren Fisher was in some kind of life-or-death crisis.
"Darren Fisher, find a way to survive! I will give you some help, but whether you can survive successfully depends on your own efforts!"
He then upgraded the power of the "rupture" rune and evolved it into the spiritual rune "destruction".
The effect of "rupture" is to crush various defenses and weapons at close range, while the effect of "destruction" goes even further, and can directly destroy the thing you are staring at at a short and medium distance within ten meters!
