From the Esoteric Cult Family to the Kingdom of God

Chapter 199 Psychic

The dark palace stands at the foot of the mountain in the night, with tall towers hidden in the darkness. The outer walls are made of huge stones without any decoration.

There was an eerie silence surrounding the palace, with only the hissing of the wind echoing in the empty space.

When people approach the palace, they can feel a strong pressure. That pressure does not come from the palace itself, but from the powerful monarch sitting in the palace.

In the main hall inside the palace, there are still hundreds of nobles from the Glory Island standing. They are all extraordinary people. They are collectively dressed in black robes and have black makeup on their proud faces. They look very strange and uncomfortable.

After a group of Fisher family members arrived inside the palace, they saw the stairs in front of them gradually rising up to the last dark golden throne.

They finally saw the powerful monarch on the throne, the great lord of the Brilliant Islands, the "Psychic".

He was a tall, skinny old man. His thin body under the golden black robe was more than two meters tall. His strangely pale scalp had no hair at all, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken. The cold and terrifying eyes in those eye sockets were completely unlike any other. There are things in human beings that make people feel downright terrified when they look at each other.

The entire Fisher family was shocked by the psychic's appearance.

They had long heard that the psychic was a half-life and half-dead monster that had lived for more than three hundred years, but they never expected that he was actually more like a withered corpse than a human being.

The man on the throne spoke.

"Leave it to me, your goods, is the so-called bottled sunlight real?"

The psychic's voice was very erratic, as if it was more like a ghost than a real ghost. People except Chris couldn't help but wonder, is this guy a human being or some kind of special mysterious existence?

Chris could see a problem. The psychic was probably not a human being or a mysterious being, but was in a special transformation process and could not completely change.

Psychic.

He probably hoped to transform himself into a mysterious creature like a vampire, but unfortunately he was not able to completely succeed.

But Chris doesn't quite understand the more specific situation. After all, his knowledge is limited.

Everyone in the Fisher family knew very well about Chris's lack of communication, so Tio stepped forward in his place.

The old man bowed his head very respectfully, saluted, took out a transparent bottle covered with golden incantations from his arms, and handed it to the first messenger of the psychic with a smile.

"This is what we want to trade. It contains the most precious things in this sea!"

The nobles of the Brilliant Island couldn't help but look at the transparent bottle covered with golden spells, their eyes showing excitement, because there was a bit of real sunlight suspended in the bottle.

Even though it is small, it is still very eye-catching.

The psychic nodded gently with a calm expression. After the first messenger brought the transparent bottle, he gently opened the transparent bottle, and then the warm and soft sunlight bloomed instantly!

A large amount of sunlight covered the surroundings. The psychic's eyes widened and he could even feel the stinging all over his body, but he still couldn't help but immerse himself in the light and showed a strange smile.

sun!

Its light is mesmerizing!

You can never get enough!

All the nobles on the island looked at this scene with envy, and everyone was eager to see the sun's rays!

On the continent of Oden, except for the believers of the Sun Sect, basically no one thinks there is any essential difference between sunlight and firelight.

But this is not the case in the Sunless Sea.

They, a group of people who cannot see the sun all day long, worship the sun's rays almost crazily, and mostly disdain all other rays of light. They only have a little reverence for the moonlight that shows mercy every night.

In fact, Chris has always found it interesting deep down.

The deadly sun, the sun that has set down judgments, things that were originally disdainful or even disgusting to this group of people, are actually the things that this group of people like most in their hearts.

But the gentle moonlight that they have always relied on for survival does not have such a high status.

Sure enough, things that are not available are the best, and things that are easily obtained will never be cherished.

The sunlight finally gradually dissipated, and the psychic fell into deep thought, and then said seriously:

"How much do you want to sell it for? It seems not as effective as Sun Gold. How long can it be kept?"

It is true that the effect of canned sunshine is not as good as that of sun gold. In fact, it takes about three bottles of canned sunshine to be worth one piece of sun gold.

But the most critical issue is that the cost of canned sunlight is extremely low. Basically, you only need to consider shipping costs. Canned sunlight itself has almost no cost.

“It lasts about three years!”

Tio smiled and said the price that had been discussed long ago.

"We will never take advantage of you. The opinion of Lord Bishop Zain of the Church of Storms is that the price of each can of sunshine should be only one-tenth of the sun gold!"

"ah?"

Many nobles on the island were in an uproar, and everyone's eyes showed great greed. Undoubtedly, many people can understand the huge value it contains!

The psychic thought for a long time and said slowly: "I can double the price for you."

"Double!"

Many people in the Fisher family cheered, but Chris remained unmoved. Tio even frowned slightly, already realizing that the psychic must be proposing some new conditions.

As expected, the psychic continued speaking in an ethereal voice.

"But I have an extremely important condition, that is, you and the bishop behind you must all make an oath. From now on, your canned sunshine will only be sold to the owner of Glory Island." Psychic'!"

It turns out that Tio is very aware of the current situation.

It seems that the psychic has discovered the huge business opportunities in it, and then wants to become the exclusive middleman of canned sunshine, but this matter is very involved, and he can't give any reply at all.

The psychic nodded slowly and said:

"Well, since you can't come up with a reply, you should go back first."

Tio was stunned for a moment and immediately asked: "But what to do with the cargo on the ship now? We can't go back empty-handed. I believe you guys need them too!"

The pale old man on the throne spoke calmly.

"I bought all those cans of sunshine at one-fifth of the price of sun gold. It doesn't matter if you don't agree to my request afterwards. Then I will buy the remaining goods at one-tenth of the price."

The psychic nodded slightly, his attitude was very calm and generous, and he had no intention of forcing anyone in the Fisher family.

Chris didn’t say a word, but deep down he had an idea, that is, letting Zain take away 25% of the profits was indeed very useful.

Without the name and face of the Church of Storms, it would be difficult for them to even land on the Island of Glory normally, let alone communicate and trade with the great slave master psychic. They would probably be robbed before meeting.

The deal was finally struck.

The Fisher family hurriedly sold all the canned sunlight in the fleet in exchange for a large amount of money and resources, and then they returned with the psychic's request.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked forward to returning to the Oden continent and the East Coast Province as soon as possible.

Chris also wanted to see his sister. He didn't know why these days, but he always felt like missing her very much.

And just when the Fisher family fleet had just left the Sunless Sea and arrived at the White Sea, suddenly, their lookout noticed a fleet appearing in sight!

"There's a situation! Your Excellency Tio, look quickly!"

"What?"

Tio also picked up the telescope and looked over, then put down the telescope with a sudden change of expression and shouted:

"Oops! That seems to be a fleet belonging to the Poseidon Order! Everyone is ready to fight! Avoid at full speed, we have to speed up!"

Soon, the Fisher family's fleet moved forward at full speed. They tried to get rid of the Poseidon Order's fleet, but the other party was already coming towards them!

"boom!"

After entering the attack range of the cannon, the two sides fired at each other immediately, and then one after another cannonballs flew from the sky, hitting the water and causing water to rise!

Several ships were heavily hit by shells, and the hulls suddenly shook violently, while the people on board were like bugs in a rolling jar, overturning and flying around.

Chris stood at the rear of the flagship holding a dagger and a short knife, ignoring the many missed cannonballs around him, staring at the enemies getting closer and closer, completely unaware of the power of the monarch level.

He said very calmly:

"Get close to them!"

Tio nodded slightly and suddenly shouted an order: "Get closer to the enemy! Everyone is ready to join gangs and fight!"
