Chapter 306 Grandparents
The far east of the White Sea.
This is a special sea area inside the White Sea, close to the junction of the "Ghost Sea" and the "Lightless Sea".
The nine seas in the world of Krad are the White Sea, the Lightless Sea, the Void Sea, the Moon Sea, the Inner Sea, the Sky Sea, the Dragon Sea, the Violent Sea, and the Ghost Sea.
The "Ghost Sea" is the most dangerous sea area among the Nine Seas. In fact, the "Lightless Sea" is also very dangerous. Generally speaking, few outsiders will enter these two sea areas at will.
However, the Fisher family has been doing business with the "Gurlless Sea" for many years and has become very familiar with it.
Under the gloomy sky, thick fog shrouded the distant ocean, making the view completely hazy and unclear, making it impossible to predict and perceive anything in the distance.
The sky shrouded in dusk gradually lost the light of the day, and the dark clouds covered the dim sea, blocking most of the remaining sunlight. Only a faint afterglow barely illuminated the sea.
The deep sea presents a strange beauty with a blue-black hue in the gradually darkening sky, hiding endless mysteries and unknown dangers.
The Fischer family's steamboat sailed on the deep blue-black sea.
Their control over the White Sea finally reached a certain level.
Today, the Fisher family can finally go to the special sea area that Carl pointed out back then and salvage the thing that is very attractive to Carl.
In just a few dozen hours, they will reach the island where the secret treasure is hidden.
“This place is very close to that location.”
On the deck, the white-haired but still tall and strong butler Theo nodded calmly and spoke to everyone.
He is still the one with the most sailing experience in the family.
From a retired boatswain to the Fisher family's chief steward, Theo feels emotional from time to time after more than half a century of life changes.
To this day, his descendants have formed an influential blood recipient family.
Byrne nodded and said, "Very good, everyone can go do your own things first. I will send someone to notify everyone when it's time to gather."
On the Fisher family's ship stood not only core members of the family such as Byrne and Chris, but also more than thirty blood recipients of the Dawn Cult.
Felix also stood on the deck, silently staring at the back of his extremely old grandfather.
Over the years, he has always regarded his grandfather Bayern Fischer as his biggest idol!
Felix heard from his father that his grandfather had no talent and no resources at all. He started from scratch and brought the Fischer family to its current state.
He really hopes to be like his grandfather Byrne.
But Felix felt that there was no shortcut to becoming a legendary figure like that, and there was only one thing he could do.
effort.
My talent is not as good as my sister's and can only be considered above average. So if I want to become strong and successful, I can only make up for it through hard work.
Just like an extraordinary person on the road of knowledge, he needs to constantly accelerate through reading and spreading knowledge.
As long as the extraordinary people on the path of forging study and use various craftsman techniques, as well as spread craftsman techniques, they can continuously accelerate the speed of mastering the power of sequence.
Felix has been studying various machines, and his destiny is "Heart of Stone". The effect is that when he focuses on doing a certain thing, he can get greater benefits, thus making up for many deficiencies in talent.
He took a deep breath.
Just like my mother said, I cannot let anyone look down on me.
It's getting dark.
Felix was still tinkering with a mechanical clock in the cabin without sleep.
A piece of soft velvet was spread out on the workbench, and the young man carefully placed the delicate mechanical clock on it. He took out a miniature screwdriver and carefully unscrewed the metal back plate of the mechanical clock.
Felix took some time to look closely at the inner workings of the mechanical clock, examining each component intently, then he gently picked up the mainspring and began to turn it slowly, making sure it was loaded correctly.
Felix then carefully adjusts the balance and escape wheel system to ensure the smooth operation of the watch.
He used a magnifying glass to carefully examine every detail to make sure everything was in normal condition.
When he was finally sure that all the parts were installed correctly, Felix gently closed the metal back plate of the clock and tightened the screws tightly with a screwdriver.
Then he wiped the fingerprints and dust off the face of the clock and carefully placed it back on the shelf in the center of the window.
As Felix carefully turned the hands of the watch, the clock began to tick more and more evenly.
"Huh, another one completed..."
Felix breathed a sigh of relief.
He could feel that the power of the second-level sequence had been mastered a little more.
"Very good. In a few years, I will be able to reach the third step..."
Although his speed in mastering sequence power is still not as fast as his sister Helen, nor as fast as the other two geniuses in the family, Uncle Chris and Uncle Kano.
But Felix was already quite satisfied with it.
He figured he just needed to try harder.
The boat was still swaying with the current. Felix took a deep breath, stood up, and planned to leave the cabin and go outside to breathe some fresh air.
Then he would take some more energy potions and continue to assemble and debug new mechanical items.
Felix came to the deck and took a deep breath, but he did not feel the freshness of the sea breeze at all. Instead, he felt very depressed.
Because this place is close to the border between the Ghost Sea and the Lightless Sea...
The dark sea under the night sky is so quiet that you can almost hear its faint breathing.
He stared into the dark, bottomless water.
The dark sea is turbid, psychedelic, full of unknowns, and has a chilling sense of terror.
Felix always felt that there was mystery and evil hidden deep inside, and the torment from deep within his own heart gradually made him feel depressed.
The deep feeling of fear seemed to completely swallow him up in darkness.
Suddenly, Felix seemed to hear "singing".
What is that?
The so-called singing seemed like some kind of deep hum, like a creepy scream, coming from the deepest part of the unknown darkness!
"Felix."
Suddenly, a steady voice sounded, and Felix finally came back to his senses from that atmosphere.
He turned his head blankly and found that it was his grandfather Byrne with a head full of white hair standing next to him, looking at him with a smile.
"Felix, what are you doing here? Be careful. We are near the Ghost Sea. The dead may appear in the sea at any time. They can confuse people's minds and even make the crew jump into the sea."
Byrne smiled and said, "I remember talking about this before... If you fall from here, you'll be dead."
Felix bowed his head slightly and said respectfully and humbly:
"Sorry, Grandfather, I just wanted to relax, I didn't expect the deck to be so dangerous."
Grandfather Byrne was always busy, so Felix didn't have much time to talk to him alone, and every time he did, he felt he benefited a lot.
Byrne suddenly said:
"Felix, I can see that you have been feeling very burdened. Can you tell me about it?"
“…”
Felix was silent for a while, unable to speak for a moment, and he didn't know what to say.
In fact, he didn't need to say too much. Byrne could see his grandson's thoughts and said with a calm smile: "Felix, I find that you seem to always want to be recognized by others."
Felix was silent for a while, then said: "I just feel that I should do better. In fact, I have always been dissatisfied with myself now."
Byrne shook his head slightly and said, "It's always a good thing to want to improve yourself, but there is one thing you should know, Felix. It's best not to seek evaluation from outsiders."
"Um?"
Felix found that his grandfather had seen through his thoughts completely. It was true. He had always wanted to be recognized by his father, mother, grandfather, and other family members.
Even more, he wanted to get the recognition of the Fessack family behind Sunny, who he fell in love with at first sight.
And he doesn't think there's anything wrong with that.
The white-haired Byrne sighed and continued, "Don't beg. If someone doesn't want to give you something, it's meaningless to beg for it. If someone wants to give you something, you can get it even if you don't want it."
Felix was silent for a while, then bowed very seriously and said, "Thank you, Grandfather. I will keep it in mind."
Byrne patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "In fact, the Fussack family has agreed to your marriage with Sunny."
"Really? I haven't even reached the third step yet..."
Felix's face lit up with joy.
"Don't worry about not being good enough for her, Felix."
Byrne said calmly: "People like you who work hard and are serious will shine sooner or later. I recognize you very much."
Felix shook his head and said seriously: "My ability is very insufficient. I am totally inferior to other people in the family..."
Byrne smiled and shook his head, saying calmly:
"In fact, everyone in the family has their own strengths and weaknesses. Your father Darren has a quick mind, but he is extreme and selfish. Christine devotes her whole heart to the family, but she is too cold and doesn't care about interpersonal relationships. Kano is a genius, but he can't integrate into the group at all. Lillian's dedication is unmatched, but she thinks about things in an extreme way..."
"Even the mighty Chris has his social inability."
He paused and continued, "Except for the great God, no one in the world is perfect. You and I need to accept this fact."
"But as long as we all work together, we can make sure the Fisher family continues to be successful."
Felix muttered subconsciously after hearing this.
"Everyone unite..."
