Chapter 162 Genius

One month later.

The sky is as blue as water, white clouds are floating leisurely, the warm sunshine is shining on the earth, and the leaves are swaying gently in the breeze.

The disappearance of Viscount Garcia had been heard throughout the kingdom, and private rumors about the Fischer family were increasing.

The Middleton family also privately asked whether they could provide support for revenge, but Garcia Jr. ultimately refused.

In the Garcia family cemetery, little Garcia nodded gratefully and said calmly:

"Mr. Samuel, I am very grateful that you came to visit my father. Thank you... If my father knew, he would definitely laugh and hug you."

Samuel nodded slightly and said, "I'd like to talk to him alone. Is that ok?"

"Of course, you are one of my father's best friends, so you are naturally qualified."

Little Garcia sighed, then turned and left with red eyes, leaving Samuel alone in the Garcia family cemetery.

"If your father knew my true identity, he would absolutely pulverize my flesh and blood."

Samuel's expression suddenly became complicated, with a terrible coldness hidden in his eyes, and he continued speaking.

"Garcia, it's a pity that you have to die on that day. Best can't let you live to see the day when we can really decide the outcome with the Eagle Family."

The "Black Lion" stood calmly in front of the Garcia family's tombstone. This time he did not wear a black robe or a mask, but came to the Garcia family in an open and honest manner.

His true identity is the owner of the "Red Wine Club", a trusted friend of Viscount Garcia, an important member of the secret intelligence organization "Black Eyes", and Mr. Samuel, the "best sommelier on the East Coast"!

That is the person who spread the rumors about the Fisher family and the Roman family.

"On the battlefield several decades ago, I saved you because of Best's order. I thought I would just act with you for a few years, but I didn't expect that we would know each other for decades."

"I'm a little confused as to whether I'm acting or not."

After staring at the tombstone for a long time, Samuel suddenly sighed and continued:

"In fact, I thought at the time that there would be such a day, and it did come, but I didn't expect it to come so late."

Viscount Garcia would never have imagined that the good friend he had known for decades was actually the most hidden sword of the Lion Family.

Decades ago, the two fought together against the Rheas, and rescued each other several times on the battlefield.

It was impossible for him to understand why, decades ago, Best, who was not yet the Viscount's "fox", was already thinking about how to sow the seeds of conspiracy.

Samuel stared at the tombstone, laughed, and said:

"Bester just likes playing chess too much. Whether it's me or Byrne, he still has many 'chess pieces' to use on the East Coast, and some of them may never come into play in his lifetime."

"It's just that every time at a critical moment, he can always easily control the situation behind the scenes and make things go the way he wants."

Samuel considered himself to be the person in the world who knew best how terrible Viscount Best was.

Therefore, he firmly believed that the Eagle Family would be completely defeated in the final battle, and he had no doubt about this result from the very beginning.

"The Eagle Family has no chance of winning, because Xavier is a wise man with a long-term vision, but Viscount Best is a cunning devil!"

——

Fisher Manor, Nasir Township.

The sacrifice began.

Almost everyone in the Fisher family is very familiar with the entire process of sacrifice.

The new forbidden item "Countdown" was finally presented. The older pocket watch was abruptly absorbed by an invisible force, then withered and dissipated into black ashes, eventually disappearing from people's sight.

Carl silently felt the influx of new spiritual power.

This is the mysterious object that provides the most spiritual power so far, even twice as much as the previous "meteorite".

He felt as if his non-existent taste buds were deeply stimulated, just like tasting a seafood feast. The fresh taste was unforgettable for a long time. Deep in his heart, he wanted more, and for a long time he could not stop his desire and could not be satisfied.

What a pity, it still feels unsatisfied.

Although the spiritual power contained in the sacrifice still could not completely satisfy Carl, he was still satisfied with the sacrifice of the Fischer family.

"It's been more than 20 years since I recovered, but I still feel like my soul can't be split again."

"It seems that my long-term bond with the Fisher family is inevitable. At least for a long time, I won't be able to find a second dependent family."

After thinking for a while, he began to sense the new rune deep in his soul. The thing looked like a black and gray pocket watch, and its hands kept moving backwards as if it was damaged.

Who should be entrusted with the "Countdown"?

Carl knew very well that it would be better to give the "Countdown" to Chris because it was a very useful power for him.

Although the effect of "Silver Blade" is also very good, it is still a rune power based on precious treasures. The real power it contains is still far inferior to the "Countdown" of forbidden treasures.

"In this way, the rune power carried by Byrne, Irene, and Chris is all based on the 'forbidden wonder'."

"It's just that the current nature of the runes is not enough to evolve the runes that Byrne and Chris used as the basis for the forbidden objects. If they can all be upgraded to spiritual runes, the terrifying power they possess is simply unimaginable."

Chris soon felt that the power he controlled had changed again.

He took a deep breath and slowly raised his hand, but the silver light no longer appeared.

Instead, the hands of a pocket watch appeared in Chris's eyes.

The new rune power is "Countdown". He can freely set the countdown time. After the countdown ends, he can freeze all living beings around him except himself.

The longer the countdown time is, the longer the final stagnation time will be. The ratio between the two is sixty to one, and the maximum stagnation time is as long as sixty seconds!

And there is no cost!

Chris could clearly realize the power of the new rune. In the battle between the strong, time stagnation was undoubtedly the first-tier power!

As long as he possesses its power, he will be able to fight against anyone below the monarch!

Byrne was very excited. He felt a great sense of relief deep in his heart, and even a sense of calm relief. The enormous pressure he had been under was now much less.

"The Fisher family finally has the power to gain a foothold on the East Coast!"

Everything from now on will be completely different!

Everyone in the Fisher family was very excited. Darren looked at his uncle Chris with eyes full of admiration and excitement.

He also wanted to obtain the powerful rune power, but he didn't know when.

After the sacrificial ceremony was over, Irene found Byrne.

Before she could speak, she heard Byrne say:

"Chris's powerful strength no longer needs to be completely concealed. Becoming a viscount family is extremely important to Fisher. Next, we need to seek dual certification from the kingdom and the church."

Irene was silent for a long time, then said seriously:

"I want to take Lillian and leave Nasir Town for a while."

When Byrne heard that Irene was going to take his daughter away, he was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked:

"Why? Because of what?"

Irene continued calmly.

"She can't feel God's power here. Lillian needs to change. Byrne, your children are different from you in many ways, but they have one thing in common with you: they all need to exercise and grow."

"What you said is really..."

Byrne was speechless, knowing what Irene really meant. Lillian was not yet qualified to be the family priestess, and when Irene died, there would be no family member who could succeed her.

"But, Irene, you've been away from Nasir Town for a long time. Is it really okay for the family?"

Irene nodded slightly and continued:

"I will return to the family once a year, and I will handle the sacrificial matters at that time. As for the daily affairs, you can let Licia handle them... Don't worry, in the last few years, I must train qualified Dawn Priests for the great Lord of the Lost. That is undoubtedly the most important thing."

The Order must never be without its own priests.

Byrne could see the determination in Irene's eyes. She wanted to train Lillian thoroughly to become an heir, a woman who could continue to lead the family forward.

"I understand, Irene, follow your heart and do it."

"and……"

Irene paused, then raised her head and said, "I can feel that I can't stay in the family forever."

"I want to review the teachings of the Dawn Cult and where our future will lead us..."

Soon after, the Fisher family found Acting Bishop Zain and explained that Chris Fisher had reached a qualitative change.

"ah?"

Zain had an expression of disbelief on his face, and after thinking for a long time, he frowned.

"This kind of joke is not funny. You are looking for me specifically because you really have something to ask?"

He is very busy and cannot afford to waste his time.

"real?"

Byrne nodded slightly and said very seriously:

"Yes, of course it's true, Bishop. In fact, at the end of the sea war, Chris had already reached the middle stage of qualitative change. Now he has the strength to achieve the upper stage of qualitative change. Maybe he has better talent."

Zain’s expression was very complicated, was it true or false?

Although my strength is improving at a similar speed, I have so many resources, and there is no doubt that my talent has reached the threshold of genius.

It’s a bit too exaggerated that a transcendent from a small family can improve so quickly!

Could it be that Chris Fischer is a true genius like Duke Roman?
