Chapter 322: Chapter 306: Grandparent and Grandchild

The extreme eastern part of the White Sea.

This area is a special sea region within the White Sea, near the border between the “Spectral Sea” and the “Aphotic Sea.”

The Nine Seas of the Claud World consist of the White Sea, Aphotic Sea, Void Sea, Moon Sea, Inner Sea, Sea of the Sky, Dragon Sea, Berserk Sea, and Spectral Sea.

The “Spectral Sea” is the most dangerous sea area among the Nine Seas, and in fact, the “Aphotic Sea” is also very dangerous. Under normal circumstances, outsiders rarely enter these two regions.

However, the Fischer family had been doing business with the “Aphotic Sea” for many years and had already become quite familiar with the route.

Under the gloomy sky, a thick fog enveloped the distant ocean, making the visibility completely hazy and unpredictable, concealing all that lay beyond.

The sky, shrouded in twilight, gradually lost the brilliance of the day, and dark clouds filled the dim sea area, blocking most of the remaining sunlight. Only a weak afterglow struggled to shine on the sea surface.

The deep sea water under the increasingly dusky sky exhibited an eerie beauty with a bluish-black hue, hiding endless mysteries and unknown dangers.

The steamship of the Fischer family was sailing on the bluish-black, profound waters.

They had finally achieved a certain degree of control over the White Sea.

Today’s Fischer family could finally head to that special sea region Karl had indicated, to salvage the thing that was so attractive to Karl.

In just a few more hours, they would reach the island hiding the treasure.

“We are already very close to that position.”

On the deck, the white-haired but still robust and upright butler Theo nodded calmly, informing everyone.

He remained the most experienced person in sailing in the family.

From being a retired boatswain to the Fischer family’s head butler, the changes of more than half a century occasionally made Theo somewhat sentimental.

By now, his descendants had also formed an influential family of Blood Receivers.

Byrne nodded and said, “Good, everyone can go about their business for now. I’ll have someone notify you when it’s time to gather.”

On the Fischer family’s ship, there were not only key family members like Byrne and Chris but also more than thirty Blood Receivers from the Dawn Church.

Felix stood on the deck, silently gazing at the back of his ancient grandfather.

Over the years, he had always regarded his grandfather Byrne Fischer as his greatest idol!

Felix had heard from his father that his grandfather had no particular talent nor resources and could completely be described as self-made, bringing the Fischer family to its current status.

He hoped to become a person like his grandfather Byrne.

And Felix believed there was no shortcut to becoming such a legendary figure; there was only one thing he could do.

Work hard.

His talent was not as great as his sister’s, it was only slightly above average, so to become strong and successful, he had only one choice: to constantly make up for it through hard work.

Just as an Extraordinary Exponent of the Path of Knowledge needed to keep reading and disseminating knowledge to accelerate their advancement.

An Extraordinary Exponent of the Path of Forging only needed to study and use various craftsman techniques and spread the craft technology to continuously increase the speed of mastering the Power of Consecution.

Felix had been delving into various mechanical crafts, and his Destiny’s Trajectory was “Heart of Resolute Stone,” whose effect was to obtain greater benefits while focusing on doing something, thus compensating for many shortcomings in talent.

He took a deep breath.

Just as his mother had said, he, should not let anyone look down on him.

The evening was setting in.

Felix remained in the cabin, tirelessly tinkering with a mechanical clock.

Spread out on the workbench was a piece of soft velvet, and the young man carefully placed the delicate mechanical clock on it. He took out a tiny screwdriver, meticulously opened the metal back of the clock.

Felix spent some time closely observing the clock’s internal structure, earnestly checking every component, then he gently picked up the mainspring and began to slowly wind it, ensuring it was correctly inserted.

After that, Felix carefully adjusted the balance wheel and escapement mechanism, ensuring the clock’s smooth operation.

He used a magnifying glass to meticulously inspect every detail, making sure everything was in order.

Only when he was certain that all parts were correctly in place, did Felix gently close the clock’s metal back and tightened the screws with the screwdriver.

Then, he wiped the clock’s surface of fingerprints and dust, and placed it back on the middle shelf of the display cabinet with great care.

As Felix carefully turned the hands of the clock, it began to emit a gradually even ticking noise,

“Whew, another one finished…”

Felix sighed with relief.

He could feel that the 2nd Rank Power of Consecution had been mastered a bit more.

“Good, in a few years, I’ll be able to reach the 3rd Rank…”

Even though his speed of mastering the Power of Consecution couldn’t compare to his sister Helen, nor to the two geniuses in the family, Granduncle Chris and Uncle Karno.

But Felix was quite satisfied with his progress.
