Chapter 132: All-out Attack
Half of the thousands of natives on the island were eventually slaughtered, and the bloodiness of the scene left the Fisher family speechless.
Allen's deputy wanted to rape an indigenous mother and daughter, but was quickly stopped by Allen, who sneered, "Since Byrne has given the order, we should not break the rules! Otherwise, it will give him more leverage."
His deputy was very dissatisfied and said: "We Silver Races are not Fisher's dogs, why should we be so obedient?"
Allen shook his head and said in a cold tone: "I don't want to say anything more. Put away your pathetic desire for sadism. If you want a woman, you can find one anywhere!"
When the army returned to the barracks, Byrne met Viscount Best on the island and wanted to say something but held back.
"The massacre just now makes you feel very uncomfortable, right?"
Viscount Best smiled slightly and said:
"This is not our country. This is actually the case overseas. The indigenous people kill each other more than we do. There are even cases of cannibalism."
He narrowed his eyes and emphasized, "Many of us Syat people were also cruelly eaten by them!"
"Our people also need to vent their hatred. Years of war have changed many people. Some will never forget the madness they experienced overseas for the rest of their lives."
Byrne nodded and said calmly, "I already understand that this is a cruel overseas country, but I still can't be a completely cruel person. But this is actually pretty good."
——
On the calm sea, on a flagship battleship that was like a sea fortress, the main members of the Garcia family and the Eagle family gathered in the exquisite and confidential captain's room.
Viscount Garcia's name is Seamus Garcia, nicknamed "The Cutter", and the family bloodline he inherited is "Wind-Winged Bird".
In fact, the nickname of the Garcia family is "The Roarer". The "Wind-Winged Bird" is not the strongest bloodline in the Garcia family. It is just an ordinary magical beast bloodline.
However, Viscount Garcia, through his own efforts, two encounters, and the high-quality magic potions purchased by his family, managed to raise his strength to a qualitatively superior level.
During the brutal war with the Rheans, the young man was able to use his large-scale invisible slashes to cut through powerful ships and guns in an instant, filling many enemies on the battlefield with fear.
He had a resolute face and a beard, his eyes revealed seriousness and wisdom, and his thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed, as if he was always alert and decisive.
Viscount Garcia, wearing a military uniform, was discussing how to deal with the Lion Family and Viscount Best with Viscount Xavier 'Black Hawk', the head of the Eagle Family.
He asked seriously: "After the war, will we completely turn against the Lion Family of Best?"
Viscount Xavier "Black Hawk" is the head of the Eagle Family and Viscount Best's main rival.
Xavier has a stern face and deep eyes, and he has an aura that makes people afraid to approach him.
"It's not the time to turn against each other completely yet."
He was completely different from Viscount Bester, who liked to wear tuxedos and had a casual sense of humor. He always wore a pure black priest robe and was called "the dead man living in the coffin" by the Lion Family.
This set of priest clothing, which represents order and judgment, is actually a very powerful forbidden item.
Xavier is a cold and cautious man. He wears it in all occasions and will not take it off even when sleeping. He even asks his subordinates to memorize cleaning spells instead of taking a normal bath.
In just a few decades, "Black Hawk" single-handedly led the Eagle Family from a Baron Family into a powerful family capable of competing against the Lions by joining the Hoven Family, one of the ten pillar families.
Xavier continued with a cold face: "Although the Lion Family has never dared to confront us head-on in the past few years, we still cannot underestimate their strength."
"The Lion Family may still have hidden power. If a fight really breaks out, even if our two families join forces, we may not be able to completely destroy it in a short period of time."
"Moreover, the Iron-Blooded Ode, the Spiritual Deer, and the Dawn families are still their loyal allies. The mysterious Alchemy Council also maintains unclear ties with them."
"In terms of hard power, we are not in an advantageous position."
Hearing this, Viscount Garcia could only nod in agreement. He certainly knew how terrifying the Lion Family was.
Xavier calmly took out a strange black stone that was full of edges and angular and emitted a strange smell, and played with it in his hand.
Every time the black stone turned, he seemed to become younger, gradually decreasing in age from around fifty years old, and finally even becoming a young man in his early twenties.
Young Xavier looked extremely handsome, with long and thick eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and a fascinating and cold temperament.
He continued expressionlessly:
"We still need to continue waiting. As long as Count Hoven can successfully reach the monarch level and then shift the strategic focus of the Hoven family to the east coast, we will win."
As the common backer of the two families, the "Broken Giant" Hoven family is actually under great pressure in the country.
This is because most of the ten pillar families do not want Earl Hoven to reach the monarch level. Although the Hoven family also has its own allies, the final outcome is still hard to predict.
If this branch of the Hoven family in Syat falls, it goes without saying that the families across the country that depend on them will not have a good ending.
Viscount Garcia said solemnly, "The Thunder Claw family relies on the marriage relationship between their family and the 'Beast of Desolation' Fussack family and still intends to remain neutral and does not want to offend anyone."
Xavier nodded and continued expressionlessly:
"We still need to win over the Thunder Claw Family and the Dawn Family, especially the Dawn Family. I know one thing. The water source of Dawn Lake has been polluted by the factory in the south of Fein City in recent years. They have already had a huge conflict with Viscount Best."
"The factories in Finn City were built one after another, representing the interests of many families on the East Coast. In order to ensure the support of most of them, Viscount Best had no choice but to sacrifice the interests of the Dawn Family."
The Dawn Family can be won over, and as long as four of the seven viscount families on the East Coast stand against the Lion, and the important backer Earl Hoven can successfully reach the monarch level, then the future of the Eagle Family will become smoother.
Viscount Garcia suddenly asked, "By the way, Mr. Xavier, you know the Fisher family, right?"
Xavier nodded slightly and replied calmly:
"I've heard that they are 'big squirrels', 'cowardly fishermen', 'vampires', and also supporters of lions."
"People say that their patriarch, Byrne, has never fought in his life. He can't even defeat the youngest girl. The only thing he knows is to kneel on the ground and clean Best's shoes."
Anger appeared on Viscount Garcia's face, his brows were furrowed, and hatred seemed to be revealed through his teeth!
"Although the church believes that the Case family was murdered by the Poseidon Cult, I believe that it was definitely Fisher who did it. That family is not as cowardly as it appears."
"I even suspect that the disappearance of my son-in-law William might be something they did secretly, because it all happened on the same night."
Xavier had no expression on his face. He thought for a while and said calmly:
"I have already mentioned the situation in Nasir Town to Count Hoven. His family will drive Fischer out of Nasir and confiscate their factory at the same time."
"That's good."
Because targeting the insignificant Fisher family was just a small matter, neither of them mentioned it too much and instead moved on to the next topic.
Xavier pondered and said calmly: "After a while, we will launch a general offensive. We will completely destroy the foundation of the Poseidon Cult."
——
Over the following period of time, the Fisher family followed the army to conquer several islands and found that their resistance was stronger than the first island they encountered.
But Byrne soon discovered that after conquering each island, the Syat people did not just plunder and slaughter people wantonly, but also had different strategies for different reasons.
The island where they massacred people at the beginning was actually the hometown of a sea god priest named "Hai Lan".
The priest of the Poseidon Cult, "Hai Lan", was the hostile leader who killed the most Syats in the naval war, so revenge on his hometown had long been planned.
The Fisher family was controversial to begin with, but they maintained a very conservative position in the following battles, and even none of the family's soldiers died, so they were despised and abused by many people.
Archibald couldn't stand it anymore, and angrily suggested to Byrne that the Fisher family should rush to the front in the war next time to show those people their bravery.
Allen and Abbott also felt that Byrne was too cowardly and afraid of death. Vaner wanted to support this "cowardly behavior" but couldn't say it.
Byrne fondly remembers what his father Lucius once said, "Always be a wise coward, not a brave waste."
He had no sense of so-called honor and completely rejected Archibald's proposal.
"We must not rush to the front. Even in the war stage when we have a great advantage, there will still be casualties on the front line, and our family cannot afford casualties at all."
Finally, several months later, a general offensive that will completely determine the victory of the naval war is about to begin.
The priests of the Church of the Storm had drawn a very complex blue special seal on every soldier, including the extraordinary people, in advance. It looked like an equilateral triangle, and the sound of sea breeze could be heard when the seal was drawn.
However, as extraordinary beings who have reached the "qualitative level", Byrne and Chris obtained completely different special seals. They are more complex blue triangles that continuously emit the light of the ocean. After they are drawn, they will continuously emit the sound of waves.
As long as the priests subsequently cast a collective spell, the Storm Bishop and many powerful men at the qualitative transformation level will be able to use this special seal to absorb the spiritual strength and even the life force of everyone in the army to provide themselves with an endless supply of endurance.
However, once the transmitter is too far away from the transmission range or loses concentration, the battery life will end.
The soldiers who have been fighting continuously and have been trained for a long time have stronger spirit and vitality than ordinary civilians, and the quality of the lower-level extraordinary people is obviously even higher. At the same time, they will not collapse and flee easily and can concentrate for a long time.
When the intensity of the battle reaches a high level, the greatest contribution of the mortal army and the lower-level extraordinary people is to provide endurance for the powerful extraordinary people through harassment with thermal weapons and consumption of themselves.
Finally, the entire army attacked.
Their next target of attack would be the headquarters of the Poseidon Cult in the White Sea, a large island with a population of more than 100,000. The remaining seven priests who were in charge of the Poseidon Cult had retreated there.
