Chapter 237: Sequence Power "Bird Rider" and Darren's Return

In the basement of Fisher Manor, the new sacrifice has not yet begun.

Vanessa crossed her arms, looked at Lillian who was standing not far away, and said calmly:

"I don't know if you have noticed that in the past ten years or so, the amount of extraordinary materials in various fields seems to have been decreasing. Maybe one day they will run out..."

Lillian nodded slightly, and did not object to Vanessa's point of view. Instead, she said seriously: "It is true. I can feel that the resources of supernatural powers in the world are gradually decreasing."

"The reason is that the demand for extraordinary materials has increased, and the number of extraordinary people has also increased, but the growth rate of the "raw materials" for extraordinary materials cannot keep up."

Since the advent of the spirit world decades ago, the world's demand for supernatural materials has further increased. However, due to the legend of the resurrected demon god, major churches have banned the private breeding of magical beasts, so supernatural materials have been in a state of continuous decline for many years.

Originally, people had never considered that the resources of extraordinary materials would one day be exhausted, but the fact is right in front of us. I am afraid that in a hundred years, or even just a few decades, the sources of some extraordinary materials will become extinct.

Lillian then looked at Lei not far away and suddenly said with anticipation:

"Lei, perhaps your natural path can help us solve the problem of the reduction of extraordinary materials. Otherwise, sooner or later we will not be able to get the right extraordinary materials."

"Ah? Me?"

Lei was a little silly and didn't react to Lillian's question at all. He was still worried about his dog waiting outside.

He scratched his head and continued, "So you want me to raise monsters? I remember that this kind of thing seems to be strictly prohibited by the church."

"Haha, as long as we are not discovered, it is not considered a violation. Besides, with our identities, should we be afraid of further disobeying those false god churches?"

Lillian finished speaking calmly, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, let me first get you the next step to the God-ascending Stairs. You will be the first person to step onto the second step of the Natural Path."

She stared at Lei, her eyes fanatically saying: "The great Lord of the Lost will grant you a gift, use your life to express your gratitude!"

Nature's Way.

Its second level is "Bird Tamer".

The image of a bird tamer in the spiritual world is a scarecrow that is supposed to drive away birds, with all kinds of birds standing all over his body.

The physical fitness of the "Bird Rider" is increased by 15, and the spiritual strength is increased by 10. It seems that he is still a Sequence Transcendent who is more inclined to melee combat.

In fact, the bird rider's ability is not of the melee type. Lei only has one extraordinary characteristic, which is "bird affinity".

Any extraordinary person who possesses "bird affinity" can have a very good natural intimacy and goodwill with various bird creatures, including Warcraft, and can even entrust the birds to do many things as long as they give small favors.

Although it doesn't sound like a very powerful supernatural power, if you happen to encounter that kind of powerful bird-like monster, it might be of great use.

Its biggest advantage is that there is no "level limit". In theory, "bird affinity" will even work on bird-like monsters at the Apocalypse level, but it is unknown whether such a powerful existence exists in the entire world.

When Lillian left the basement, she heard the servant say that someone was looking for her.

He was a man with scars all over his face, frowning, and he didn't know how to look at Lillian respectfully.

"The war is over, and Darren is still alive. Will he come back?"

The man with an anxious tone was "Old Dog", the only qualitatively transformed extraordinary person in Darren's team in Rhea.

Half a year ago, the old dog ran to Syat covered in wounds. After recuperating for a long time, he finally and carefully came to the town of Nasir and found the Fisher family.

However, at that point in time, the defense of Fein City had officially begun, and his intelligence was no longer important at all, so the old dog simply stayed in the Fisher family, silently waiting for Darren to come back.

The old dog kept wondering if Darren was dead, but everyone in the Fisher family swore that Darren must still be alive.

Now, the war that lasted for several years has finally ended.

The old dog couldn't help but start to wonder whether Darren would come back to Nasir Town. Is he dead or alive?

"Darren! Is he still alive? Can he come back?!"

Lillian was silent for a while, then shook her head and said, "He must still be alive. As for where he is and when he will come back, I don't know..."

——

Outside a village on the border of Syat, a simple horse-drawn carriage was silently heading south. The farmer who worked part-time as a coachman was greedy for the large sum of money promised by the Iron-Faced Man and was planning to take him to the town of Nasir.

"Finally back, tsk."

The Man in the Iron Mask lay quietly in the carriage, looking up at the light blue sky.

He let out a long breath and yawned.

"It's a bit boring. The war ended so abruptly. Haha, it's not interesting enough."

When Darren was escaping, he was caught by the opponent's adjutant and discovered his escape route. Just when he thought he was about to die, the trajectory of fate suddenly took effect.

Suddenly a man appeared and saved his life.

However, it was only his life that was saved.

Because the church had no right to interfere in the war, the woman still handed him over to the Rhea army, and Darren was imprisoned for a full six months.

After the war, on the eve of the mutual transfer of prisoners of war, he ran away alone.

"I don't know what my family has become now. Can they still recognize me now..."

Darren took a deep breath and then fell asleep in the back of the carriage.

"snort."

After a while, the carriage stopped quietly, and the coachman in front had a very cold expression. He turned his head to look at Darren who was sleeping in the back of the carriage and snorted coldly.

"I have finally waited for you, the blood of the Fisher family, Darren Fisher. I will offer you as a sacrifice to God!"

He is a member of the Star Embrace Society. Although he does not have any Star Embrace clothing on him, he has actually been a member of the Star Embrace Society for more than twenty years. As long as he kills Darren Fisher, he will have the opportunity to achieve a qualitative change in his promotion!

"The great star has issued a supreme oracle that every Fischer bloodline must be sacrificed to Him."

"The Fisher family is doomed to destruction!"

"You'll be the first!"

The coachman walked over slowly, carefully took out the knife and stabbed it suddenly. The next moment, the cold knife passed through the body without any feeling of touching flesh and blood.

He was stunned for a moment, and then he heard the Iron-masked Man's laughing voice.

"So you guys are targeting our family? That doesn't sound bad. At least it makes things interesting again."

"Why didn't you die?"

The coachman stared at the iron-masked man lying on top, completely stunned.

Darren laughed, then suddenly reached out and pressed his hand on the coachman's face. Immediately, flames rose up, causing the coachman to wail, and his entire face was burned by the scorching flames.

"Ahhhhh! Aaaaaaahhhh!"

“Hahahahahahaha!”

Darren laughed wildly and saw several more members of the Star Embrace Society coming not far away, and seemed to be gradually surrounding him.

"Good, good, good! The more the better!"

The next moment, Darren suddenly stretched out one hand and reached into the coachman's body, then used all his strength to pull out the entire bloody spine as a weapon in an almost mad manner.

"Hahahaha! Come on, everyone!"

Darren grinned and swung his spine at the Star Embraceers who were gradually gathering around him. They were all stunned and too frightened to move.

A few days later.

In the town of Nasir, in front of the Fisher Manor, a carriage filled with the stench of corpses was parked.

Darren, who was covered with burn scars, took off his iron mask and sat in the back of the carriage, holding a bone in his mouth, staring at his own manor.

Finally back.

“Excuse me, who are you…Aaaaaaaah!”

"Quick, go call for help! There's a monster!"

When the servants arrived at the gate of the manor and saw his hideous and terrifying face and the horrible corpses piled in the carriage behind him, they were all frightened and at a loss.

Darren looked calm, just silently waiting for his relatives to arrive.

After the door of the mansion opened, a woman in a black robe walked out. The moment she saw Darren, her eyes were filled with tears and she could not control herself.

"Darren!"

Lillian rushed forward without hesitation and hugged her brother tightly, whose face was covered in blood and stench and burn scars. She was so excited that warm tears flowed down her face.

"You're finally back. I missed you so much. It's great, Darren, I'm glad you're back!"

Darren took a deep breath and smiled, feeling truly relaxed for the first time in years.

He also hugged his sister tightly.

"Well, I'm back."
