Chapter 149 The "Secret" of the Fisher Family
Viscount Garcia's carriage was driving on the road from Montenegro Town to Slovan Town.
He sat calmly in the carriage, wearing a Syart military uniform, with a serious expression, his strong and rough hands placed on his knees, and he looked very resolute and upright.
The carriage gradually stopped. Viscount Garcia reached out and pulled open the curtain. He looked toward the jungle not far away and gave orders to the family soldiers outside in a cold voice.
"According to the report, there should be a bandit camp here. Let's search it."
When the family soldiers came back, he asked calmly, "Did you find any trace?"
The soldiers of the Garcia family looked at the dead silent mountain road and shook their heads. They didn't know if there was anyone here, but they didn't find any traces after searching for a long time.
His deputy bowed his head and said, "No, Lord Viscount, it doesn't look like there are any bandits here."
Viscount Garcia's eyes were cold and he said decisively:
"Three days ago, a group of merchants going from Slofen Town to Black Mountain Town were robbed. The incident happened right here. There were goods on board that were to be delivered to our family. We cannot let the bandits go."
The family soldiers all knew that Lord Viscount Garcia had always been very confident in his own judgment.
No matter what they said, they could not change the Viscount's mind.
Garcia has never denied that he is a stubborn person.
After the destruction of the Keith family and the disappearance of his son-in-law, even though the Storm Church certified that it was the Poseidon Cult that was responsible and all the evidence was complete, many people even believed that was the truth.
But he has always believed that it was definitely the Fisher family who killed those people!
"I'll go down and take a look."
Viscount Garcia quickly left the carriage and began searching the surroundings himself, remaining alert the entire time, as if he was searching for a powerful enemy rather than an ordinary bandit.
"This way."
He suddenly discovered some clues and gave the order:
"Stand by where you are!"
More than ten minutes later, Viscount Garcia found a cave deep in a very hidden jungle. The actual space inside was very large. After walking a hundred meters, he saw the bandits staying inside.
"It's an extraordinary noble!"
"Surrender! We surrender, please don't kill us!"
When the bandits saw Viscount Garcia collapse, they were so scared that they wanted to surrender. They were all ordinary people and they fully understood how big the gap was between themselves and the extraordinary nobles.
“…”
Viscount Garcia said nothing, but just waved his hand lightly, and many bandits dozens of meters away were chopped off by the invisible force, and turned into a pile of blurred flesh and blood in an instant.
Those invisible blades were like the knives of the god of death, able to cut through all flesh and weapons in an instant, and without any attack trajectory, they were very difficult to avoid.
He continued to walk deeper and saw several women and children, and waved again coldly.
After finishing everything, Viscount Garcia walked out of the cave.
After finding the stolen goods, he continued his journey, first coming to Slofen, the richest town among the four towns, and then from Slofen to Port Phipps in the south.
On the way, he kept thinking about the Fisher family.
"The Fisher family, Byrne..."
Several years after the demise of the Linglu Family, the Black Mountain Town, Fira Town, and Slofen Town among the Four Towns have now been occupied by the Garcia Family, also known as the "Roaring Family."
There is no doubt that their family has formed a siege on the town of Nasir, and Viscount Garcia has actually always wanted to remove the big nail of the Fisher family.
"The most important support for the Fisher family is Byrne, followed by Irene. As long as Byrne dies, the entire Fisher family will fall into chaos."
Viscount Garcia is warlike and bloodthirsty, and has always been known for his cruelty on the East Coast, but everyone knows that he is not a stupid and reckless man.
He knew very well that if he wanted to kill Bayern Fischer, he had to figure out two things.
The first is how to kill him, and then what the consequences will be after the killing.
Killing someone is not only about killing his or her flesh and blood, but also about severing all of that person's connections in the world.
Port Phipps had become a boomtown, the second city of the East Coast Province, and had become very prosperous because of the factories and large port it had established.
Viscount Xavier, the "Black Hawk" who controls it, is a man who knows how to manage and develop, and has a vision that is ahead of his time in some areas. He borrowed money to build a large port, which now brings huge development dividends. He is also the first person in the East Coast Province to vigorously introduce steam engines.
In just a few decades, he had developed a small town that was once no different from Nasir Town to its current glorious status, with an eagle-like vision.
Viscount Garcia came to the south of Phipps Port and entered a high-end "red wine" club.
It was a very famous officers club. Many officers from the East Coast Province who had participated in the war would come here to keep in touch with each other and share various intelligence.
However, its membership restrictions are very strict, and Syat officers without national military merits are not even eligible to join the "Red Wine".
"Hello, Mr. Garcia!"
"Greetings, Mr. Garcia!"
Many soldiers in the club stood up, their eyes full of respect for this military role model.
Everyone knew that if he had not led his troops to defend Black Mountain Town, the East Coast Province would probably have been lost in the first raid by the Rheans!
In the war with the Rheans, Viscount Garcia repeatedly went deep into the enemy's country, assassinated three Rhean nobles in succession, massacred many villages and towns, and made a terrible reputation by himself.
Later, he escaped from the pursuit of the monarch for more than ten days and nights, and returned to Syat on the verge of death with amazing perseverance.
"Hello again, everyone."
Viscount Garcia nodded calmly to everyone.
Then he came to the VIP room of the wine club and found his old friend whom he had known for more than 30 years, the best friend who had risked his life to save him on the battlefield and who had faced the powerful monarch together.
The owner of the wine club, Mr. Samuel, “the best wine taster on the East Coast.”
Samuel is an old man dressed in black, with his white hair combed meticulously. He looks very elegant and is simply the spokesperson of etiquette.
He held a glass of red wine and smiled, saying, "You haven't been here for a long time, my friend."
Garcia sat next to him, picked up the black coffee on the table and drank it, and asked directly without hesitation: "I heard the rumors about the Fisher family, do you know?"
He knew Samuel's hidden identity. This old friend was actually an important member of the secret organization "Black Eyes" and might have key intelligence.
Samuel drank the red wine in one gulp and replied with a smile: "You mean, his relationship with the Luomen family."
Garcia was silent for a while, but nodded and said, "Yes, I did hear the secret news about the Roman family, but I think it is too incredible and I still can't believe it."
Some time ago, Viscount Garcia purchased intelligence from the secret organization "Black Eyes" in order to find out what the hidden power of the Fisher family is.
What power enables them to turn danger into safety time and time again?
Then he was shocked to learn that Byrne Fischer's father, Lucius, was actually a member of the top family, the Roman family, who was lost in the East Coast Province!
Because it sounded too incredible, Viscount Garcia could not believe the authenticity of the information at all, and the information from "Black Eyes" was indeed wrong.
However, Mr. Samuel nodded and confirmed the reliability of the "Black Eyes" intelligence.
"Your guess is correct. Bayern Fischer's real name is indeed Bayern Roman. His father, Lucius Fischer, is related to Duke Roman by blood."
Garcia took a deep breath and shook his head slightly.
“It’s still unbelievable to me.”
Samuel smiled, with a cunning flash in his eyes that others could not detect, and calmly analyzed the authenticity of the seemingly absurd intelligence.
"First, Viscount Best is a person who puts profit above all else. His kindness to Byrne is not for no reason. You should understand that the cunning fox would not be so kind even to his own son."
"It is said that the barrier he gave to the Fisher family is worth the equivalent of level five extraordinary materials. It can be seen that he is afraid that someone will touch this small family in Nasir Town."
"Secondly, when Nasir Town was attacked by the Rhea people, why did Duke Roman, whose power was not on the east coast, rush there first? In fact, it was to save his bloodline."
"He is one of the most important figures in the kingdom, but he personally certified a commoner, Byrne, as a knight. Don't you think it's strange?"
"Third, why is it that every time the Fisher family is attacked by a strong person, a 'miracle' or 'miraculous performance' can appear to successfully defeat the opponent?"
Viscount Garcia had fallen completely silent, but Mr. Samuel continued to speak.
"Everyone in the church said that the last time they received an oracle was many years ago. The Fisher family's claims of being saved by miracles several times more than a decade ago seem to be completely untenable now."
Viscount Garcia fell into deep thought and asked, "In fact, they have always been protected by the strong men of the Roman family?"
"Yes, that's right." Samuel nodded affirmatively.
"And there is a fourth point. We at Black Eyes have already gone to Emerald Lake Province to verify. Several decades ago, the Roman family did publicly search for a baby that was lost in the war. The age of the baby exactly matches that of the deceased Lucius of the Fisher family!"
Because the arguments and evidence were so sufficient, Viscount Garcia frowned and couldn't help but waver in his heart.
However, he still spoke coldly:
"I still can't completely believe it. I always feel that something is wrong with the details. But I have completely understood one thing, that is, the Fisher family does hide some powerful power."
"If you want to destroy them, you must be absolutely cautious and make the most adequate preparations!"
——
In the Fisher family manor, the well-kept silver dragon egg in the basement suddenly began to shake, and soon cracks appeared on its silvery-white dragon-scale surface.
A few hours later, Theo, the housekeeper, who went down to the basement for a routine check, discovered the situation and looked surprised.
"A dragon is about to be born!"
He quickly called the head of the Byrne family.
"It's been a few years, and it's finally going to be born. Tio, go prepare some hot water and a hundred kilograms of beef. The book says that dragons will eat a lot of meat from large animals when they are born."
Byrne stared at the shaking silver dragon egg and took a deep breath. Dragons are very powerful species, and the quality of this dragon is not recorded in any books.
It may be extremely special. This silver dragon egg may be the good luck of the Fisher family!
