Chapter 211 Past events reappear

The walls and ceiling of the basement were spotless, without any spots or dirt. Everything was arranged in an orderly manner. The bright flames of many candles illuminated the altar, the holy objects, and the faces of several people in contemplation.

Because of the sudden situation, the Fisher family soon held an emergency family meeting again.

They had decided to believe the intelligence brought by the man, because Lillian's listening malice did not work, and the other party must have no malice.

And if he was not an enemy who passed on false information, and he forced to pass on the information in a dying state, it was obvious that he was probably Darren's friend, otherwise there would be no reason to do so.

The man desperately came to Nasir Town and passed this important information to Byrne, Darren's father.

His efforts moved Byrne, and at the same time he couldn't help worrying in his heart. Since Darren was also coming towards Syat at that moment, why didn't he return to Nasir Town?

What did Darren encounter?

Suddenly, Vanessa's voice broke the silence. She stared into Byrne's eyes and asked:

"What should we do next? The Rhea army is about to move south. Do we have to rely on the barrier of the four towns to resist?"

Byrne shook his head, helpless but had to say:

"There may be multiple monarch-level strongmen in the enemy's army. We can't solve the crisis by relying on our own strength alone. If there are two or three monarchs in the enemy, even if we ask for a miracle, it won't work."

Lillian also looked at her father, her tone implied suppressed hatred for the Rhea people:

"So father means that we can't fight? But flee?"

She has a more radical personality and doesn't like the decision to flee.

However, Byrne was very sure and nodded to answer his daughter:

"Yes, I do think so. We must not fight. We can only evacuate from Nasir Town."

Lillian continued to ask: "If we evacuate, where should we go? What about the towns in the Four Towns?"

Byrne explained calmly:

"We will go to Fein City and take away the main resources and leave the Four Towns. Then we will go directly to Fein City. The defense barrier of that city is very high and large in scale. It is very effective even for monarch-level masters."

"If the enemy has multiple monarch masters, it will be easy to capture the Four Towns, but Fein City can still hold on. As long as we wait for the support of the monarch masters, it will be much better."

Vanessa's eyes showed reluctance and she took a deep breath: "But if we abandon the Four Towns and retreat without fighting, and directly hand over towns such as Nasir, what will happen to the people here and our factories?"

She still couldn't let go of everything in the Four Towns.

Byrne was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind and said: "Take away everything that can be taken away. We have no way to take away those that cannot be taken away, so we can only evacuate the nearby people in advance."

Vanessa still wanted to insist, and couldn't help saying: "I think there are many enemies, but there may not be powerful monarchs among them. Maybe they are just here to harass, and it's a bit too hasty to abandon the four towns before seeing the enemy in person?"

"..."

Byrne was silent for a long time and looked at everyone, and found that the other three people were also thoughtful.

Obviously, because of a vague intelligence, the decision to abandon most things and the entire family began to flee was still a bit too decisive, and Vanessa and Lillian might not be able to accept it.

But Byrne and Chris looked at each other, and instantly recalled the incident decades ago.

If they could leave Nasir Town faster and meet the Black Iron Duke earlier, everything would be completely different, and the trajectory of fate would be completely changed.

Byrne sighed. If his father survived, there is no doubt that many things in the next few decades would be changed.

He seemed to be mumbling to himself, or to Vanessa and Lillian.

"At the beginning, it was just a little short..."

"I don't want Fisher to make the same mistake again."

"Let's go."

Vanessa and Lillian looked at each other, neither of them understood what Byrne was referring to.

"Vote."

Chris, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

Since there was no clarification, then vote, which was in line with the rules of the Fisher family.

The scale of faith was placed on the table, and the four people were silent for a while, each casting a vote to decide the next direction of the Fisher family.

The final vote was two to two.

Byrne and Chris both agreed to evacuate immediately, while Vanessa and Lillian both hoped not to take action and observe the specific situation.

For many years, the Fisher family rarely voted once but there was no result.

Everyone was silent for a while and decided to vote again in half an hour, and in the next thirty minutes, they had more time to consider.

"Trust me, Vanessa."

Chris stared at his wife and spoke, holding her hand calmly.

"With us, they are more dangerous."

His words were short, but they quickly hit Vanessa's inner thoughts.

Yes, she chose to vote against it because she didn't want to abandon the civilians in the Four Towns!

But Vanessa thought about it and thought that if the Fisher family decided to stay in the Four Towns and rely on the barrier here to launch an offensive and defensive battle, then the civilians in the Four Towns would probably die more.

Evacuating the people in advance might be the first choice.

Vanessa took a deep breath and nodded gently.

"I see."

After another vote, the result was three to one, and Lilian nodded in agreement with the family's collective decision.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Byrne couldn't help but make a surprised sound.

He could clearly feel that his spirituality, which had not changed for several years, suddenly showed signs of boiling.

"Why?"

What I just did is actually related to the ceremony of promotion to the fourth ladder?

Byrne's heart immediately overflowed with ecstasy. Although he didn't know the specific reason, if he could be promoted to the fourth step of the Ascension to God, it would be of great benefit to the family!

"I'm going to Fein..."

He was silent for a moment and took out a book from his arms. It was "Xavier's Diary", which was probably the "Black Hawk's back-up man" that Best said.

The things recorded in it were extremely important, leaving Byrne speechless and thinking about it for a long time.

However, Byrne stumbled upon a problem.

This is a fake diary!

——

The next day, the Fisher family set off with thousands of people up and down, heading directly to the city of Fein in the south.

They were walking on a well-constructed road, but because of the large number of people, they could not move very quickly. By the time Viscount Best got the news, the Fisher family should still be on their way to Fein City.

Byrne, who was riding a horse, stared ahead and took a breath. The weather around him suddenly became slightly colder.

"Fortunately there's no snow."

The haze from decades ago came to Byrne's mind again.

My father's face seemed to appear in front of me, and then there were the eyes of Erin, Eric, Allen and others. The Fisher family lost a lot along the way, but they still persevered.

He knew one thing clearly, that is, the Fisher family was completely different from what it once was.

"The result this time will definitely be different, it will definitely..."

In the team evacuating Nasir Town, Archibald looked at his wife and children with strong worries deep in his heart.

As the family's captain of soldiers, he was in charge of many soldiers of the Fisher family. He had been sent to the military academy to learn a lot of military theories, and he had also participated in the naval war, so he knew the true situation of the war very well.

If the Rhea army really comes, all life will be devastated.

You and your family could die at any time.

He once thought he was not afraid of death, but after he had a family, the fetters deep inside his heart became bigger and bigger.

Archibald's wife and children are all Silver, and deep down he once regretted that he accepted the Fisher family's decision and married a Silver, which resulted in the lifespan of his descendants being much shorter than normal humans.

But there is no use regretting it. Archibald only hopes that his descendants can become the great elders of the silver descendants on the east coast, just like Lord Byrne planned.

His daughter couldn't help but asked: "Father, will we be overtaken by the Rhea people?"

Archibald shook his head and said seriously: "Don't worry, no, they can't get here yet."

Archibald's son looked ugly and said loudly: "Father, I really want to know why we have to escape. Can't we fight to the death with the Rhea people?"

"Because it's not time yet."

Archibald was too lazy to explain to the child. However, the silver-haired boy still refused to let go and even yelled at his father:

"As you said, the Rhea people are a bunch of rubbish, beasts, weak and incompetent waste. Since they are such a weak group of people, why should we be afraid of them?"

The young man paused and complained:

"I can't understand that Mr. Byrne actually let us escape. He is really a coward, so weak!"

"What the hell did you say?"

When Archibald heard that Lord Byrne, whom he respected deeply in his heart, was insulted, he immediately became furious and knocked his son to the ground with a powerless slap.

His wife exclaimed, immediately angry.

She helped her crying son up, and then roared loudly:

"Archibald, what are you doing? You will bully your own son. You have the ability to fight the Rhea people!"

"snort!"

Archibald took a deep breath and hummed.

"I am not wrong, and Mr. Byrne is not wrong either! You must remember not to say that kind of thing again!"

He didn't bother to argue with his family.

In fact, Archibald has been stuck on the second step for many years. He sees his good brother Chris getting stronger and stronger, as if he is getting further and further away from him, and he feels strong uneasiness and pain deep in his heart.

"Damn it, how on earth can I advance to the third step?"

According to Mr. Byrne, most promotion ceremonies need to have an impact on others. The road to disaster, is it to cause disaster to others?

He was deep in thought.

A week later, thousands of people who had evacuated finally arrived in the north of Fein City. They soon encountered a group of cavalry from the Lion Family, and people couldn't help but cheer.

When the leader with a nervous and anxious look saw Byrne and Chris, he immediately shouted:

"Things are bad, the Rhea people have suddenly invaded the east coast!"
