Chapter 45 Sequence "Hunter"
More than four years passed in a flash.
There are still twelve years until the peace agreement between Syat and Rhea expires.
Siat entered a relatively stable period, and the prices near the east coast gradually stabilized, but the prices of extraordinary materials never came down.
Once the price goes up, it goes up completely, with no sign of returning to the original level.
Fortunately, the Fisher family's income has increased greatly in the past four years, not because the new medicines developed later have better effects, but simply because of the medicine developed previously for restoring energy.
Its effect is not particularly good, it can only be said to be pretty good. Its biggest advantage is its low cost.
However, Mr. Jin was a business genius, and he made a suggestion that led to a gradual boom in sales of energy potions.
That is, they did not sell it as a medicine, but as a food additive to various people who sell food. Since this substance really had no obvious side effects, and Viscount Best was Mr. Jin's brother-in-law, the City Hall approved their practice.
Soon, those merchants selling food found that their food became more popular, while those merchants who did not add energy potions had their business squeezed out.
As a result, food merchants throughout the city of Fein rushed to buy the energy potions produced by the Fisher family, and they had to find more people to produce them.
Mr. Jin began to lobby Byrne, hoping to jointly open a food processing factory to produce food with added energy potions.
However, factories are a brand new thing that has appeared in Syat in recent years. Not everyone is very familiar with them, and there has never been a so-called food processing factory in the East Coast region.
Even Mr. Jin had heard people describe how people in the empire did it, but Byrne felt it was unreliable and was very hesitant.
Nowadays, the Fisher family receives a profit share of up to thirty-five gold coins every month. After deducting various expenses in four years, they have still accumulated a considerable amount of five hundred and thirty-five gold coins.
Just two years ago, Irene opened a Dawn Orphanage in Finn City, and the first batch of orphans she took in numbered more than fifty people.
At the same time, the treatment in the two orphanages improved as the Fisher family gradually increased their investment, and the children were basically grateful to Irene.
With the rapid influx of outsiders, the population of Fein City is much larger than that of Nasir Town, and there are still many orphans displaced.
Over the years, Irene became more and more fond of children, and even had the urge to open a third orphanage to house more children, but reason stopped her.
Because according to investigation, there are hundreds of orphans in the entire city of Fein, and it is impossible for the Fisher family to take in all of them with its current financial resources.
The most she could do was open a window to give free food to orphans, and treat seriously ill orphans every time she went to Fein City.
Over the years, the orphans in Finn City called Irene the "Walking Madonna", and their biggest dream was to live in the Dawn Orphanage.
Today, the Fisher family is almost the richest family in the small town of Nasir. Only the new mayor has wealth comparable to theirs.
The new mayor, Francis, is not an ordinary mayor. He is the younger brother of Baron Hoven. However, as a member of the Hoven family, he is not an extraordinary person. At best, he can only serve as the mayor.
Compared with the previous mayor, the new mayor Francis is still not as good as the previous one and has no interest in managing the town of Nasir.
His biggest hobby was to ride his horse wildly in the town while laughing. He almost bumped into people several times. Byrne guessed that this guy must be depressed and felt that a small place like Nasir was not worthy of him.
Tonight, Irene, Byrne, and Chris gathered in the basement of the Fisher family's villa.
Chris has grown up to be ten years old. He looks more and more delicate, like a delicately carved jade doll. Although he is not a silver race, he has long, slightly curly silver hair, and can even be easily mistaken for a girl.
Byrne also had a gentle appearance when he was a child, but it was far inferior to Chris. He sometimes even suspected that Chris had a certain amount of elven blood, otherwise his hair color and appearance could not be explained at all.
Chris has grown taller, but his taciturn personality has not changed at all.
The entire basement has been fully decorated, and all the incense, candles, flowers, fruits, offerings, sacrificial utensils and other items needed for the sacrifice have been placed in place.
In addition there are statues and flags belonging to the great Lost Lord.
Irene personally made a black stone cross sculpture as a statue of the Lord of the Lost, but she did not worship it, because she could directly worship the bottle-shaped holy object for daily worship.
She also made a matching flag with a black cross mark on it. Of course, nothing could leave the basement.
At this time, the smell of burning incense had already covered the basement. Irene knelt on the ground and prayed silently, her face full of piety.
Byrne glanced at Irene, then looked at Chris who had been waiting for a long time, and said solemnly:
"Chris, today we are going to give you extraordinary power, the power of sequence. From now on, you will become more special."
He paused here. Chris was a very different guy.
Chris nodded silently, without responding to Byrne at all, and then when the time was up, they knelt together in front of the transparent bottle and prayed to the great Lord of the Lost for new gifts.
What they presented was a first-class extraordinary material called "Dust Demon Flower", which looked like gray petals with black pupils.
Carl absorbed the spirituality inside the Dust Demon Flower and once again came to the unpredictable and illusory spiritual world, where he searched for new extraordinary laws.
He found another "star".
At the same time, Carl could feel that some mysterious beings were observing his actions around the spirit world.
But none of them dared to act rashly and did not touch their own thoughts at all.
To be honest, Carl was quite curious about the existence of the spiritual world. As for the degree of danger, he didn't care. Anyway, as long as there was danger, he would run to the real world as soon as possible.
He built a new stairway to godhood, the Path of Tranquility.
Sequence Force, "Hunter".
The first step of the Silent Road, the shadow of the "Hunter" among the stars, is a middle-aged man crawling in the snow waiting in the deep blue, lurking silently.
Carl returned to the real world, and the deep blue spiritual light he took out was cold and silent, and it silently came to the still very young Chris.
He closed his eyes and calmly felt the extraordinary power he had obtained.
First, there is the improvement of physical fitness, which is a little less than that of "Gladiator", and then there is the improvement of spirituality, which is a little more than that of "Gladiator".
Although the strength of the "Hunter" sequence cannot be said to be a balanced point addition, it is also a stage that is not so extreme.
Hunters have two extraordinary characteristics, namely "Tracking Senses" and "Trap Making".
"Tracking Senses" brings about an all-round enhancement of the five senses, and can even track over ultra-long distances based on clues left long ago. It is a special state that needs to be actively turned on, and can clearly see the footprints left by the target and the flow of various "smells" in the air.
"Trap Making" is the ability to make anything into a trap. Anyone who obtains it can become a leading trap master, which is extremely suitable for chaotic actual combat.
Chris opened his eyes again, nodded, tilted his head slightly, and finally uttered a short sentence.
"Thank you, Lord of the Lost."
Both Irene and Byrne found it incredible. They never thought that Chris would know how to thank God.
They originally thought that with his strange personality he would just nod and turn away.
A gentle, relieved smile appeared on Erin's face.
She knew one thing deep in her heart, that is, Chris rarely spoke but never lied, and his thanks just now must be sincere.
