Chapter 244: The Third Ladder "Flame Knight"
Three years later, the railway from Nasir Town to Finn City has been half built, and the town buildings destroyed by the Rhea army have been completely restored.
The workers are all suspicious of what they built, and even many mysterious rumors have emerged, causing many farmers to think that this thing may be part of a heretical ritual, and secretly report the construction of the railway to the church.
The priests of the church said they knew about it, and then informed the Fisher family of the reports.
Then, Darren, Lillian and others will call the reporter over.
Who dares to report me?
After Darren returned to the Fisher family from the capital, he officially became the acting head of the family. He first followed the advice of Colin, the family merchant, and borrowed money from various families and several major banks on the East Coast.
They also inspected the shipyard that the Lion family had robbed from the Eagle family in Phipps Port. Soon after, the Fisher family also built a new shipyard.
The Fisher family specializes in producing new steam-powered ships. They vigorously promote steam-powered ships, not only on the East Coast, but also to the families of Syat.
Darren said at banquets that their existence can completely replace the old wooden ships, and those steam-powered ships represent a new era.
Everyone talked about it, but after seeing the actual situation, they still had to believe his words, because the maneuverability of steam-powered ships is indeed much stronger.
Even if many old captains think that those new steam-powered ships are "things without real ship souls", they still can't cover up their advantages.
And some people in the church are also slightly dissatisfied with the Fisher family, thinking that they are promoting the concept of recasting the church.
But no matter how many reasons there are, they can't stop the shipyard from gradually bringing benefits to the Fisher family.
The situation of the Lion family is not optimistic. Viscount Best and Renzo suddenly disappeared. Colonel Abel, who returned after the war, became more and more irritable, anxious, unable to sleep normally, and constantly taking medicine.
He often suddenly gets emotional and attacks people around him, and even kills his personal servant, and then feels full of regret.
Everyone began to fear Colonel Abel, and he always felt that people around him wanted to harm him. Even in private, Colonel Abel and his brothers Best and Renzo might have been murdered by Fisher.
Members of the Lion Family also felt that he might be a little crazy.
The Fisher Family would never murder Viscount Best!
Colonel Abel's former adjutant was Major Savoy, the Dawnbringer of the Fisher Family.
He has come from behind and reached the third step of the road to disaster before Archibald!
The third step of the road to disaster.
Sequence "Flame Knight"!
The image of the "Flame Knight" in the spiritual world is a ferocious knight bathed in flames, with blood and flesh flying everywhere, and his eyes are full of murderous intent and anger.
After becoming a "Flame Knight", the improvement in physical fitness is 45, and the improvement in spiritual power is 25.
He possesses three extraordinary characteristics, namely "Knight Body", "Immunity to Fire" and "Fire of Rage".
The best explanation is "Immunity to Fire". As long as you become a "Fire Knight" sequence extraordinary person, you will never be afraid of fire again. No matter how powerful the opponent is, you can't hurt the "Fire Knight" with pure fire.
And "Fire of Rage" means that the "Fire Knight" can burst out of the body of the "Fire Knight" and release a flame shock wave within a range of tens of meters.
However, the "Fire of Rage" can only take effect when there is anger deep in the heart. When the mood is calm or depressed, it is only a small flame-like effect.
However, the upper limit of "Fire of Rage" is very high. Although there has not been an extreme situation, the Fisher family speculates that when it is extremely angry, it even has a killing ability comparable to the fourth level.
The effect of "Knight Body" is simple and effective, which is to improve one's physical fitness by 30%.
It sounds very ordinary, but the effect of "Knight Body" can be accompanied for life, and the higher the later the benefits!
After the sacrifice was completed, Darren learned about the series of abilities of the "Flame Knight". He said with a smile: "Very strong!"
"If the goal is purely to fight, I am afraid that the Disaster Road and the Conquest Road are both the most suitable extraordinary roads for frontal combat. Well, the Conquest Road tends to be one-on-one, and the Disaster Road is undoubtedly a good battlefield player."
Major Sava announced that his extraordinary bloodline is "Flame Cheetah", a not very powerful bloodline power.
The reason why he can reach the "Flame Knight" one step earlier than Archibald is very simple, that is, he often has the opportunity to set fires on the front line.
After digesting the sequence power, Major Sava completed the promotion ceremony unknowingly. For a long time afterwards, Major Sava was not sure which arson caused the ceremony to be completed.
This good luck almost made Archibald, who had been stuck, angry to death.
Finally, Archibald also completed the promotion, and finally figured out the promotion ceremony of the "Flame Knight" and recorded it.
"In the same battle, set fire to at least one building and kill five people. Repeat this three times to complete the promotion ceremony of the 'Flame Knight'."
In order to complete the ceremony as soon as possible, Archibald has been doing security work for his family's maritime business. He gets excited every time he encounters blind pirates and White Sea natives.
Finally, he is promoted to the "Flame Knight".
Lillian finally cultivated a third devout person among the natives and was promoted to the third-level "Preacher".
The Fisher family also learned a terrible news.
That is, the Sky Blue High Priest of the Sea God Cult has woken up, and the far-sighted Deep Blue Sage may also be resurrected, or it can be said that he was not dead at that time.
Fortunately, the Sea God Cult soon fell into a fight with the Eastern Feathered People and did not attack the East Coast, which made the Fisher family relieved.
But the sense of crisis rose again.
At the same time, the Fisher family also began to plan to go to the island where the treasure wanted by the Lost Lord was hidden. It was deep in the eastern sea and needed to pass through the main sphere of influence of the Sea God Cult to reach there.
At that time, they might have to deal with the Glacier People and the Feathered People.
The Fisher family did not have enough opportunities to take it before, but now they have the Blue Priest to cooperate with them, and the situation can be changed.
Through the relationship with the "Angry Angel", the Fisher family began to trade frequently with the "Angry Angel" Jones family in the Maple Leaf Province in the west.
The youngest daughter of the "Angry Angel" Jones family is another powerful monarch in their family, nicknamed "Angry Angel".
She is a crazy battle fanatic who once committed a massacre and was condemned by the Redemption Church and the Silver Moon Church. She has a very negative image among the people.
The "Night" Roman family and the "Beast of Desolation" Fussack family and the "Angry Angel" Jones family have a very friendly relationship.
The Fisher family is one of the relatively important members of the "big ship" with the Black Iron Duke as the captain. The three allied families of this "big ship" can see the good potential of the Fisher family.
Even if the best Chris Fisher is missing and may have died, the remaining members of the Fisher family still have great potential.
At the triumphal ceremony, Darren also met the "Pale Giant Beast", the head of the "Beast of Desolation" Fussack family.
The "Pale Beast" looks like a very old man, with white hair, and is simply the oldest among all the powerful monarchs, and he is also blind.
Because of his poor condition, the "Pale Beast" did not go to the Rhea front in the war in the past few years.
However, his actual age is several decades younger than the Duke of Black Iron, and he even has a long life span, and it will take a long time before he reaches the end of his life.
The reason why his physical condition is so bad is that he has used terrible forbidden objects. The "Beast of Desolation" Fussack family has two very powerful forbidden objects, namely the "Holy Bone" No. 943 and the "Book of Destiny" No. 526.
The cost of the former makes the body of the "Pale Beast" completely aged, and the cost of the latter directly makes his eyes permanently blind. Both costs cannot be cured, so the head of the "Pale Beast" is very pious and always prays to the gods at home, hoping to get a relief.
The Duke of Black Iron, the Pale Beast, the Angel of Power, the Dragon Tamer, the Man of Stars, the Claw of Desolation, and the Angel of Wrath.
The above seven people are the main members of the "Black Iron Force" in the mouths of many nobles in Siat, and they are the only major force in the country that can compete with the Royal Family of Yadley.
The "Blood Mist Alliance" of the "Misty" Abernathy family and the "Burning Blood" Castleton family is slightly worse.
The Hoven family and the Middle family have maintained a delicate position most of the time. The main heirs of the former have been arrested and imprisoned, and have been on the verge of being expelled for treason. The Middle family clung to the thigh of the Church of Redemption and tended to the Royal Family of Yadley most of the time.
The situation in recent years has been very delicate. After the Rhea War, the number of monarchs among the major nobles in Siat has dropped from twenty-one to only fifteen.
But people were shocked to find that none of the seven people in the Black Iron Force died! Only the "Angry Angel" was in a coma for a long time because of using a powerful forbidden item, that's all!
Therefore, rumors about the suspicion of the Black Iron Duke have increased rapidly in the past few years.
Many people even think that he may have had some private communication with the former Blood Flame Marquis of Rhea, who is now the Blood Flame Pseudo King, before the war, using the war to eliminate dissidents.
Moreover, in recent years, the Black Iron Duke and King Siat, who were originally as close as brothers, have not met again, which makes many people speculate in their hearts.
The Fisher family also discussed this matter privately.
Lillian asked: "Do you think the Black Iron Duke really has the intention of rebellion?"
Darren shook his head slowly and said with a smile:
"That kind of thing is not important at all."
"Huh? Why is it not important?" Lillian looked at her brother.
Darren's eyes were filled with malice, and he continued:
"Because it doesn't matter what the old man thinks, the point is that the Duke of Black Iron already has that kind of powerful power, so the royal family of Siat, the Yadley royal family, will definitely be wary of the Roman family."
"Next, anyone in the 'Black Iron Force' camp who may break through the monarch will definitely be the focus of the major Siat families and several major churches. That delicate balance may be broken at any time!"
