"I'm here to see you, Granny Nada."
Irene came to Dongcheng District with a calm expression and entered Granny Nada's room under the extremely respectful eyes of everyone.
Granny Nada lay on her back unable to move, her breath was extremely weak, like a thin thread that could disappear at any time.
She is not sick.
Just old.
"Irene, Ms. Irene...I am so, so envious of you..."
Granny Nada's face was full of longing and reluctance. The few years she had gained extraordinary power were too short.
She hasn't experienced a completely new life yet, and she's about to leave!
"I envy you, Ms. Irene, you can still... live for decades..."
Irene smiled slightly. Although she was no longer afraid of death, she still felt lost and a little sad when she heard Granny Nada's words.
The side effects of losing your sense of taste and smell are extremely intuitive.
Over the past few years, she has also gradually felt the shortcomings of losing her fear, that is, doing things becomes more radical, and it is not easy to be happy and excited.
"Be at ease, the Lord of Loss will protect your soul."
"Really, really? After death, can my soul really see the great Lord of the Lost?"
Granny Nada suddenly stared at the ceiling and asked in an exaggerated tone, her hands trembling constantly.
Obviously, Erin's next answer is extremely important.
"Well, you will."
In fact, Irene doesn't know the answer to the question. The Lost Lord has never really said whether believers can see the great Him after death.
But she always wanted to believe it.
“When you see Him before me, give Him gratitude and reverence for me.”
Grandma Nada was silent for a long time. After a long time, she finally closed her eyes and exhaled with relief:
"It turns out we will see you, that's good."
"..."
Erin sat calmly next to the old man and confirmed that she had no signs of life.
She left the house, and Grandma Nada's three sons looked over immediately. Irene shook her head. They burst into tears in a blink of an eye, uncontrollably.
Eileen said calmly: "Please show your condolences, my Lord will protect her soul."
Moore Shelby, the thin and short eldest son, bowed with tears on his face and said with respect:
"Thank you, Ms. Eileen, our Shelby family has been able to make it this far because of your help and support."
In the past few years, with the support of the Fisher family, Granny Nada's sons have completely integrated the thieves in East City, and the Shelby family's reputation has grown day by day.
Grandma Nada's funeral was very grand, because several members of the Fisher family came, and the whole town once again realized that the Shelby family had a close relationship with them.
After Nada's funeral was handled to a certain extent, Moore found Byrne and Irene alone, still choked with sobs, and continued talking.
"Now that nearly a hundred thieves in East City are under the control of the Shelby family, we plan to establish a formal gang, just like the Green Gang in Fein City."
The Green Gang is a gang that has appeared in Fein City in recent years. In the East Coast Province, there were only gangs of thieves in the past, but this is the first time that a more well-organized underworld gang has appeared.
Irene fell into thinking. She knew that the presence of thieves in Dongcheng District was inevitable.
The poor people in Dongcheng District have always been in a state of almost no management. If the Shelby family helps control the frequent fights and murders, the security situation will be much better than it is now.
She nodded and asked, "What's your name?"
Moore had already thought about it and said: "Dagger Brotherhood, because the three of us brothers are accustomed to using short knives, and we will also be Fisher's dagger."
He took a deep breath and assured Irene with confidence and respect:
"It's not just Dongcheng. I guarantee that there will be no more murders and rapes in Nasir in the future where the murderer cannot be found. We will definitely do better than those useless patrols!"
"As long as you and Mr. Byrne continue to support us."
Erin nodded again and said something about the Fisher family.
"We also want to tell you one thing. Nasir Town may be able to expand towards the south because the Fisher family wants to build a factory."
"factory?"
Nowadays, everyone with a little knowledge knows about the factory. It’s not that Moore can’t understand it, but he is just a little surprised.
He couldn't help but asked curiously: "What factory is the Fisher family going to build?"
Building a factory is not a secret, Irene replied very calmly:
"They are drug and food processing plants respectively."
Moore wanted to ask where the money came from, but decisively shut up and stopped asking any more questions.
Nowadays, the town of Nasir is in the hands of the Fischer family, so their family will naturally not be short of money.
Eileen goes on to explain why the Fisher family opened the factory:
"Byrne went to the military academy in Fein for a year. He observed the factories on the outskirts of the city for a long time and felt that the Fisher family could also be established in Nasir."
When the factory can be successfully established, the Fisher family's income level will undoubtedly reach a new level.
"I see."
Moore was stunned, and then thought about how the Shelby family could grasp the subsequent impact of this incident.
The population of Fein City has gradually increased in recent years, which seems to be caused by the emergence of factories.
Moore makes money quickly with his brain. Could it be that the population of Nasir Town will become more and more in the future?
The more people a place has, the more troubles there are, and the more "mediators" are needed. Thinking of this, he smiled with satisfaction.
At the end of the funeral, Irene fell into deep thought. In Nada's last moments, her spirituality showed signs of boiling, briefly but obviously.
Very strange.
Erin wondered what could be causing this sign to appear.
The two key words for the third step on the road to divine sacrifice are “preaching” and “piety.”
Suddenly she understood everything.
"So that's it. Grandma Nada completely became a pious person at the last moment!"
The Road to Divine Sacrifice advances to the third step, and the discovered path is to “create devout believers by promoting the greatness of God.”
Finally finding her way to the next rung, Erin was filled with joy.
On the way home in the carriage with Byrne, she told Byrne the new knowledge she had learned.
"So, by preaching about the gods, enough pious people are created to make the spirit boil."
Byrne took out the paper very skillfully and recorded the very critical and important information.
As the pioneers, they walked the long and even daunting steps to ascend to the gods, but it would definitely be much easier for those who came after!
"Well, it's just that I think the requirements for pious people are very high, and it can't be easily considered."
Irene hesitated to speak at this point. Deep down in her heart, she felt that even in the Fisher family, she was probably the only one who could be considered a pious person.
There's no doubt that it's hard to get to the next level.
And if she wants to achieve promotion, her best targets are those who already have faith in the Lost Lord.
——
Carl's disembodied consciousness stared at the huge white vortex in the sky.
The light blue soul is slowly floating upward, gradually being sucked away by the white vortex. In this world, except for the souls of the Fisher family, which will return to itself, it is the final destination of all the others who have passed away.
He still doesn't know what kind of place is behind the white vortex.
The soul that was ascending belonged to Nada. Karl suddenly found that his own mark appeared on the soul, which seemed to be proof that it belonged to a pious person.
strangeness.
He knew that after the old servant died, there was no mark like this.
Karl speculated that the appearance of the mark had nothing to do with the blood of the Fisher family, but to do with the degree of piety.
He doesn't know whether the souls of this world will eventually be reincarnated.
But if Nada's soul reincarnates, Karl will naturally feel it because of the existence of that mark.
He looked at the confused light blue soul and said calmly:
"Irene did not deceive you, Nada, I do look upon the souls of the pious."
At this moment, Karl's consciousness suddenly felt something.
Byrne's spirituality was completely boiling!
The first member of the Fischer family to reach the third step of becoming a god is about to be born!
