Chapter 338: Civil War! War Begins!
In the narrow dark alleys of Fein City, the moonlight cast a hazy silver light through the stained walls. The air was filled with the smell of damp earth, and the noise of the streets could be heard faintly in the distance.
At the end of the alley, two figures met quietly in the darkness.
One of them was tall, wearing a black windbreaker, with a hat brim that covered half of his face, leaving only a pair of sharp eyes flashing in the night, revealing a deep and cold look.
That was the chief of police of Fein City, Momir the Dawnbringer of the Order of the Dawn.
Another thin man wearing a dark jacket, with his hands in his pockets, stood in the shadows, his eyes revealing a hint of nervousness and expectation. He looked around from time to time, alert to the movements around him.
The distance between the two people was neither far nor close, just kept within a relatively safe range.
Chief Momir, who was wearing a windbreaker, took out an envelope and a few gold coins from his pocket and gently pushed them forward. The thin man nervously stretched out his hand and nodded.
Finally, the thin man made up his mind, grabbed the envelope and quickly stuffed it into his jacket. A smug smile flashed across his face, but he quickly returned to his nervous expression.
Director Momir in the windbreaker nodded slightly, satisfied with the outcome of the transaction.
"Go to Black Gold City in Maple Leaf Province and give this letter to the editor-in-chief of the Sincerity Newspaper in Black Gold City in Maple Leaf Province. He will know what to do."
A light breeze blew by, and the street lights at the entrance of the alley suddenly flickered a few times, casting the intertwining shadows of the two people.
They looked at each other in the brief light, and the transaction was completed quietly in the darkness, leaving only two receding figures and an empty dark alley.
Today, Momir has joined the Black Tide.
Kuroshio Current.
It is an intelligence organization created by Darren. It is one of the peripheral organizations belonging to the Fisher Family and the Order of Dawn. It accepts a large number of illegal extraordinary people. Its external slogan is to obtain intelligence for profit. In fact, just like Aldrich's "Black Eyes", it is an intelligence organization serving the family.
Many illegal supernatural beings in the Black Tide thought that the leader of the Black Tide, "Tide Master", was Lao Gou, but they didn't know that the actual controller behind the scenes was Darren Fisher.
After communicating with Darren, Momir decided to join the Black Tide to assist Darren.
After joining Black Tide, the first thing he did to help Darren was spread rumors.
There are a lot of "dirty things" deep in Darren's heart, especially when dealing with enemies, one conspiracy after another will quietly emerge.
He knew very well that he was the most despicable bastard in the Fisher family!
More than a month later, many rumors spread in one city after another in the northern province of Syat. It was said that the Jones family, the "Angry Angel", and the Fussack family, the "Beast of Desolation", had already taken sides with the Roman family and the Fisher family, and that these four major families were about to join forces to march south to eradicate the cultists who manipulated the Yardley royal family!
These half-true and half-false rumors were jointly promoted by the Black Tide and the Short Blade Brotherhood. Even though the two big families never expressed their stance and wanted to remain neutral and wait and see for the time being, many people in the northern province of Syat felt that the four major families were really going to join forces.
There are also rumors that make many believers of the Orthodox Church begin to believe that the mainstream Redemption Church and Storm Church in Syat will soon support the Fisher family and the Roman family.
In fact, the attitude of the church is crucial now.
If the Storm Church and the Redemption Church stand on either side, it will bring a huge advantage to that side, and public opinion will become one-sided in an instant.
However, the views of the Storm Church and the Redemption Church are completely inconsistent.
Bishop Zain and others from the Church of the Storm finally decided to accept the claims of the Roman and Fisher families and go to King Syat's capital to investigate the causes and consequences first.
However, the Church of Redemption stated that it had obtained important evidence that the Roman family was colluding with cultists, and that they and the Fisher family must be eliminated immediately.
In fact, the Fisher family and other families are very clear about one thing, that is, these extraordinary aristocratic families all have dirty tricks.
Besides this, there is one more important thing.
Today's Orthodox churches are no longer "God's Hand", but secular forces with their own will and interests!
Gradually, people in Syat's Maple Leaf Province, East Coast Province, and Emerald Lake Province believed what the Roman and Fisher families said.
On the other hand, people in Greenbrook and Alfennia provinces firmly believed the royal family's statement and believed that the Roman and Fisher families were traitors.
Like most wars, both sides believe they are on the right side.
——
The Civic Square in Nasir City.
Many citizens gathered here, and the entire square was packed with people. Everyone's eyes were focused on a platform more than ten meters high in the center of the square.
In the golden morning light, Byrne stood on a high platform in the Civic Square, his black hair fluttering gently in the breeze, his eyes flashing with determination.
With countless eyes of admiration and respect cast upon him, he simply took a deep breath and began his final pre-war speech.
"People of Syat, warriors of Fisher, we stand here today not for the false name of honor, nor for the temptation of gold and silver, but for the honor of our family, for the land we have worked hard to cultivate, for our relatives and compatriots, and finally for the God we admire!"
Byrne's voice was loud and penetrating, as if it could penetrate the clouds and reach the deepest part of the hearts of every citizen of Nasir City.
"The gods have given us everything, and we must defend the glory of the gods. Those heretics who disobey the gods must be completely destroyed!"
His voice gradually became more passionate, as if fire was burning in his chest:
"Our enemies are greedy and cruel. They are ready to trample our land, insult our families and destroy our dignity!"
"They think they can make us surrender with their powerful military force and endless ambition, but Fisher will tell you that we will never surrender! The bones of the Fisher family are harder than the hardest metal, and the will deep in their hearts is more fierce than the storm on the sea!"
He suddenly pulled out a decorative long sword from his waist, the tip of the sword gleaming brightly in the sun:
"Today, the Syat people on the East Coast will take up their weapons to defend our homeland and our dignity. For the glory of God, the Fisher family will use courage and wisdom to lead you to drive all the invading enemies out of this precious land and let them know that the righteous Syat people are invincible!"
His eyes swept across the faces of every Syat, as if he could see through everyone's soul:
“I know some of you are scared and some of you are confused!”
"But I want to tell you that fear is an excuse for the weak, and confusion is the beginning of failure. As a Syat, you must learn to dispel fear with courage, and dispel all confusion with faith in God!"
"Because we are warriors, we are the only protectors of this land!"
Byrne's voice is powerful:
"Remember, every charge you make is for your family. The power of the Syat people will never be cut off, but will only continue. Everything is for you and your family on this land."
He took a deep breath, and finally shouted loudly: "Now let us launch the most fierce attack on the cultists in the name of the Syat people and with the glory of warriors! For our homes, for our loved ones, and for the glory of God, march towards the Syat capital! Save the Syat royal family! Expel the cultists! For the glory of God!"
"Save the Syat royal family! Drive out the cultists! For the glory of God."
As his shout fell, the people in the Civic Square cheered in unison, the sound shaking the earth.
There was a determined light in their eyes, as if they had seen the dawn of victory. At this moment, the citizens of Nasir were the guardians of this land!
After the pre-war speech was over, Byrne, who had just come down from the podium, was quickly notified by Butler Theo.
"Sir Byrne, the Yadley royal family has assembled an army and is heading towards the East Coast Province!"
"The big families that have also gathered their armies and set out for the East Coast Province include the 'Mist Walker' Abernathy family, the 'Burning Blood Dragon' Castleton family, and the 'Ruin Song Spirit' Middle family who responded to the royal call!"
"Well, it's finally about to begin." Byrne nodded calmly. Everything was going as expected.
The situation was unclear, and the more cards he had, the better. He began to seriously consider the proposal made by the president.
