Chapter 323 King Syat passes away
In the dim basement of Fisher Manor, in a transparent bottle, the black light that strikes fear into the hearts of the people kept flashing.
If the power inside were to flow out into the outside world, I'm afraid no one would be able to stop it.
At this moment, Carl calmly perceives believers around the world with his invisible consciousness.
"During this period of time, not only in Syat, but also around the world, my followers have increased in number, and some of them have been gradually recruited by the Fisher family members I sent."
"Well, the number of converts is gradually increasing. In just a few years, the number has increased by more than a hundred people."
"Although the total number of the two types of blood recipients, the Dawnbreakers and the Converts, is still not large enough, the secret cult with several hundred extraordinary people can actually be regarded as a large organization with great influence."
"Moreover, Lillian and the others have already begun trying to contact and win over some of the family members of the East Coast nobles, especially those nobles who were born without blood power and were discriminated against and rejected by mainstream values."
He thought about it.
"So far, there has been no confusion, and the few 'problems' that have occurred have been 'corrected' in a timely manner."
"very good."
Karl was very pleased with the current situation, fully feeling that as a secret cult family, Fischer was no longer in its starting stage, but had entered a completely new stage.
For the time being, we can call this stage the "growth" stage.
The Fisher family members who are in the "growth" stage are still improving all aspects of the entire family and the Dawn Cult. When all things are perfected, the Fisher family will enter the "stable" stage. By then, the foundation possessed by the Fisher family and the Dawn Cult will truly be comparable to, or even surpass, the ten pillar families of the four eastern countries.
Every aspect of the Fisher family is full of positive energy, but he feels that if it continues to develop in this way, it will sooner or later come into conflict with the top ten families.
"Because there are always a limited number of positions that hold power, and those who come from behind always want or are forced to take those positions that hold power."
Carl knew it all too well.
Resources and power are always limited; conflicts and wars are always inevitable; they are the main theme of the material world.
At that time, it will be a critical moment to truly test the Fisher family.
——
The hot summer is coming.
A very important message quickly spread from the capital of Syat, and gradually reached the major families of Syat through one royal messenger after another.
Then, the important news quickly spread throughout the country.
It was a shocking piece of bad news, which shocked all the Syat people in an instant. Even the four eastern countries and the Loen people were surprised for a long time.
"Have you heard? King Syat has passed away!"
"Hurry and read the newspaper. King Syat has passed away!"
"The king is dead? Is that true?"
"Today's newspaper prices have increased! King Syat has passed away! A national mourning will be held!"
The news of King Syat's sudden death was like a bombshell, and the entire Syat was in an uproar in an instant.
The nobles from all over the place fell into deep silence. However, logically speaking, King Syat, who was the same age as the Duke of Black Iron, was almost at the age of death. In addition, the most common price of forbidden artifacts was to consume one's lifespan, so his sudden death was objectively normal.
For most Syat people, King Syat is also a legendary figure. He is the founding monarch who reigned for a hundred years. Although his prestige is slightly inferior to that of the Duke of Black Iron, he is still admired by many people.
All of a sudden, many of the people who had cried for the Duke of Black Iron began to cry again over the news of King Syat's death.
Then a new piece of news came to the aristocratic circle. It turned out that the royal family of Yardley had issued an order, requiring important figures from many large families, including Fisher, to gather in the capital of Syat. Then, under their witness, a new King of Syat would be elected from the royal family members!
This incident once again shocked everyone. For many great nobles, the choice of the new king was extremely important.
Most of them were thinking about how the interests of each family would be affected after the new King Syat came to power.
In Nasir City, the Fisher family also received the news at the first time.
In the lobby of the family manor, Byrne was holding a newspaper and discussing this matter with Chris, Darren and Vanessa.
Byrne frowned deeply.
"How come?"
"That King Syat died just like that?"
He looked at his family members and said calmly:
"I still remember when Duke Black Iron passed away, King Syat invited the Roman family to the Syat capital at the funeral, but was rejected by Aldrich. King Syat then left in a rage."
Darren nodded and said, "Aldrich has always said that we should be careful and vigilant against King Syart. I thought King Syart would do something after returning to the capital, but I didn't expect him to pass away like this."
Vanessa said: "It's possible that he really wanted to do something, but he didn't have time."
Byrne looked at his son and said calmly, "Darren, who do you think will be the new king after King Siat dies?"
Darren thought for a moment and answered his father: "Father, currently in the Yadli royal family of Siat, apart from the court mage Bai Yinshi who is an outsider, there are two other monarchs who belong to the Yadli royal family."
"The first one is Prince Bain, the Rock Hammer, who is below the monarch. He is a distant relative of the deceased King Syat. He possesses extremely terrifying strength and defense, especially in terms of power."
He paused and continued:
"However, Rock Hammer is already over 200 years old. I'm afraid he has no chance of breaking through to the middle monarch position. I feel that he has less chance of inheriting the throne than the other person."
"And the second person's name is 'Sword of Redemption' Noah. That man is one of King Syat's grandsons. He is also a transcendent below the monarch. Like King Syat, he has inherited the blood power of God's blood, the blood of redemption."
"Sword of Redemption..."
After hearing the name, Byrne fell into deep thought.
He is a strong man who is obsessed with pursuing personal power. He rarely attends various aristocratic gatherings and basically does not take the initiative to socialize. Everyone in the Fisher family does not have a deep impression of this man. They only know that the "Sword of Redemption" Noah is very powerful, and the sword he holds, "Breath of Death", is a three-digit forbidden artifact.
He might even be the strongest among all the extraordinary people below the monarch in the Kingdom of Siat.
Vanessa suddenly said, "It should be Noah."
Byrne nodded and said, "I think it will be Noah, too."
Just then, Darren suddenly came up with a weird idea.
"Do you think that King Syat is really dead?"
Byrne and the others looked at him, then he nodded and said:
"It should be true, because there is a joint announcement from the Church of Redemption about this matter, and the person who issued the announcement is none other than the Cardinal of the Church of Redemption, the Silver Hermit. That powerful monarch is the invisible patron saint of Syat."
Everyone suddenly understood.
As the cardinal of the Church of Redemption, the "Silver Hermit" has a very high level of credibility, and it is basically impossible for her to falsify such a big thing.
Byrne nodded. The Lord of Redemption was the most common belief in Siat, and everyone believed in the "Silver Hermit", one of the cardinals.
He paused and said in a serious tone: "This public order and invitation issued by the Royal Family of Yardley actually symbolizes that we are officially accepted as a member of the big family! I think it is very important!"
"Looks like we need to go. We're going to attend the king's funeral and select a new heir."
Just then, Christine came in with Andre in a wheelchair.
"Indeed, all the extended family members will arrive by then, and we cannot be absent."
Vanessa asked in confusion, "Will the Roman family go?"
Byrne shook his head and replied, "Aldridge is a very suspicious person and may not want to go, but he and Ariel will go in the end because such a big thing has happened and the Roman family, as an important member of the big family, must be there, unless they want to completely break away from the Siat noble circle."
"Then, when this matter is over, I will help Amos, the 'Fire' of the Roman family, to ascend to the throne."
A few days later, Byrne, Chris and Darren from the Fisher family set out again by boat. After a while, they once again arrived at the capital of the southernmost province of Elfennia.
The sky was clear over the harbor, and the Fischer family's steamship was gradually approaching the shore.
For some reason, Chris frowned on the deck. He sensed a very uneasy atmosphere.
