Chapter 220 Royal Reward
Ager and Lillian were ambitious, and their ideas also made everyone present look passionate. All the people in the Dawn Cult knew how powerful the great Lord of the Lost was.
They were completely different from those cults that believed in false gods, and they had very unique and exclusive power.
And every believer who joined the cult could gain that power as long as they made contributions and showed their piety.
When they first stepped on the long steps to the gods, many people were filled with surprise in their hearts, and they began to be completely convinced that the Dawn Cult could really change the whole world!
"I don't agree."
Byrne's eyes were cold, and he said a serious word of disagreement, which instantly calmed everyone down.
Although Chris was the nominal head of the family and Lillian was the priest of the cult, no one in the family or the cult dared to despise Byrne's ideas.
Everyone knew that since Irene's martyrdom, the calm and wise man was the real backbone.
Lillian looked at her father who had poured cold water on her. She had expected this in her heart. The family's elders often said that the family's main purpose was "keeping secrets and being cautious". They had given up a lot of benefits because of this, but they had never regretted it.
"Father."
She took a deep breath. Although she knew the reason, she asked as calmly as possible: "Why?"
Byrne continued seriously: "I don't deny that your idea is grand, but the possibility of exposure will also be greatly increased. Our current strength is not enough to bear such a huge risk."
"If we do as you said, the secrets of the Dawn Cult will definitely be discovered, and our family will eventually fall into a miserable and desperate situation!"
In fact, even if her father didn't say it, Lillian could already predict what he was going to say in her heart.
She stared into her father's eyes and asked, "In fact, the family's secrets have been discovered several times over the past few decades, right?"
Byrne suddenly felt that Lillian had really grown up a lot, and she could not see the appearance of her childhood at all, so she nodded slowly and said seriously:
"Yes, but we dealt with it as soon as possible."
Lillian wanted to continue, but she thought of something, so she shook her head and said, "In this case... forget it, I don't expect to convince my father, let's vote."
Byrne was slightly stunned, stared at his daughter for a long time again, and nodded gently.
"Okay."
So Lillian turned her head and looked at Chris and Vanessa, who had the right to vote, and said calmly:
"Next, we will use voting to decide the family's future strategy. Whether to absorb the mortal members of those extraordinary families, please think about it before making a decision."
She knew deep in her heart that Uncle Chris was actually a bit radical, or in other words, he had a playful attitude in his nature.
If Uncle Chris was not too suitable for the path of tranquility, perhaps he could also take the path of enlightenment.
So she felt that Uncle Chris would most likely support her, because that would create more variables, and he would definitely like variables.
Vanessa took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I understand. Sorry, Lillian, I may not do what you want."
Chris looked at Lillian calmly and smiled faintly.
So the scale of faith was put out again, and the four people with voting rights in the Fisher family voted again, but the result made Lillian very dissatisfied.
Except for her, the three people all felt that the current Fisher family could not be so radical.
Lillian saw the final voting results, took a deep breath, and nodded willingly:
"Okay, I will find a way to convince you later."
In a few years, Kano and Christine will be adults, and if Darren can come back, there will be a chance that the vote pattern will change.
She thought silently, but she didn't think there was any need to rush.
After everyone dispersed, Byrne and Chris stayed alone.
In the empty room, the two cousins looked at each other.
Chris said calmly, "There is no surveillance in the manor."
Byrne sighed, frowned and said, "Lillian has grown up, she has a lot of ideas, but she is not mature enough to see the huge risks behind some actions."
Chris shook his head gently and said, "It's not that she can't see it, but she will believe it."
Byrne was stunned for a moment, and finally said with sudden enlightenment:
"You mean, because she believes that the great Lord of the Lost has always protected the fate of the family, she thinks we will succeed no matter what? So that's it, I understand, then it makes sense logically."
His thinking logic did not put into Lillian's perspective, so many things were unclear, and it took Chris's enlightenment to suddenly realize it.
"Chris..."
Byrne was silent for a long time, and his tone suddenly became low. His eyes were like pearls in the long river of time, reflecting calmness and wisdom.
"Chris, is there any result in the matter I asked you to investigate?"
"Yes."
Chris nodded gently and took out a torn piece of paper, which was his investigation result.
After reading the results of the investigation, Byrne became even more silent, his head was dizzy, and an unprecedented huge wave was stirred up in his heart!
"So that's it, it's really you, is it a trick of fate..."
He clenched his hands tightly, and he must avenge his father's hatred!
——
The Rhea army staying in the town had already evacuated, and before evacuating out of the Seat border, they bumped into the head of the "Burning Blood" Castleton family who came to intercept him.
Because there was no plundering formation by the powerful monarch, the entire army had no countermeasures. In the end, it was defeated and fled, with heavy casualties.
Everyone in the Fisher family returned to Nasir Town, and then saw a very dilapidated scene.
Although the evacuated townspeople were fine, only some nearby villagers who took advantage of the fire ran into the Rhiyas and were killed. However, the schools and factories in Nasir Town were burned down by the Rhiyas, causing heavy losses.
"Actually, I heard that they wanted to burn down the entire town before leaving. Fortunately, there was a heavy rain, so there was no such big damage." Tio said calmly.
Byrne stood in front of the ruined school, with blood dripping deep in his heart. These were all his efforts and were built bit by bit by the Fisher family over decades.
After decades of hard work were destroyed, he sighed heavily, and finally turned around and whispered to the people around him:
"However, everything can be restored, as long as the person is still there."
Yes.
Whether it is the Fisher family or the Nasir people, they are still here, and there is still hope for everything.
His eyes turned cold and he said firmly: "When the war is won, the Rhea people will definitely spit out their flesh and blood and return them all to us!"
A few days later, everyone in the Fisher family received an important guest in the living room.
That was King Siat's envoy.
King Si Yat's reward has finally come down, and all military merits in the war will be honestly rewarded. This is the prerequisite for the entire country to actively fight the war.
The Fisher family's performance in the defense of Fein made great contributions. There is no doubt that they will also receive a lot of resources. Not only was the balance of the military supplies paid off, but King Siyat also personally paid for Fischer. The Fisher family rebuilt the factory, and in the end he was even willing to provide a large interest-free loan to the Fisher family.
Byrne knew very well the reason why King Siyat suddenly became generous. Losing the logistics factory was also a loss for the entire country, especially at such a critical moment of the war. Of course, he had to support the Fisher family as a logistics company.
"Well, in addition to that, King Siyat will also grant you a piece of territory."
The royal envoy who came to deliver the message was polite and spoke calmly.
"territory?"
After everyone heard about the territory, they immediately became energetic, but soon they all looked weird.
It turned out that King Rhea had long decided to cede a large piece of land to the Siyat people, which was almost equivalent to half of Rhea's province. This was also an important reason why many Rhea nobles were angry with King Rhea.
The territory that King Siat assigned to the Fisher family was a village, and the land was not very large.
But that's not the most serious problem.
The biggest problem is that the village is located in Rhea, where the battles on the front line are fought. It is even very close to the village where Darren was captured, and has been plundered several times by the armies of both sides.
After the royal envoy who summoned the messenger left, everyone looked at each other in shock. Archibald couldn't help but said:
"Do we really need to send people to manage that dilapidated village? I'm afraid there won't be anyone there, and it could be taken back by the Rhea people at any time, right? Or maybe some powerful monarch from Rhea is passing by and just pick it up. Just give our people..."
Byrne shook his head slightly and said calmly: "Just treat it as a piece of cake."
"We don't need to worry about it until the end of the war. In short, we will first use King Siart's money and interest-free loans to rebuild schools and factories. Our Fisher Manor has also been severely damaged, and many things need to be rebuilt. "
When he said this, he looked around at the town of Nasir, which was being rebuilt, and said calmly:
"Both sides have been fighting for several years and are full of exhaustion. I guess it won't be long before the war will be temporarily over, unless the newly joined Kanians join in with greater investment."
Archibald nodded slightly and muttered: "I hope we will be the victor in the end."
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and Fisher Town was still being rebuilt.
Brand new houses are rising, the roads are clean and tidy again, and busy workers are coming and going.
The working people exuded confidence in each other, and the whole town was filled with vitality, as if after experiencing repeated baptisms, the residents of this town had become resilient enough.
"Dong dong dong."
In the study room of Fisher Manor, Byrne suddenly saw Tio knocking on the door and walking in. The old man also held an invitation letter from the Lion Family in his hand.
Tio said slowly: "It's a letter from Viscount Best, Lord Byrne."
"I see."
Byrne took the envelope and nodded lightly, then opened it and read the contents silently. The words in the letter were very brief, but the things mentioned were very important.
Viscount Best is about to break through to the level of monarch! There is likely to be interference from outsiders! We need the full help of the Fisher family!
