Chapter 13 Ace Family

The Ace family is a hereditary Earl family in Wayne City. It has been passed down for nearly a thousand years. A large area including Wayne City was once the home of the first Earl Ace.

It was just over two hundred years ago that the Brent royal family carried out a major reform and took back most of the nobles' back pages. Carlin did not know the inside story, but it was indispensable for the bloodshed and intrigues.

After this reform, the Brent Empire took the lead in leading the trend of steam technology. The traditional feudal aristocratic structure was broken, and new capital upstarts emerged. Various noble families took the initiative to marry these upstarts.

But this does not mean that the old nobles have declined. In Carlin's view, these nobles have just adapted to the general trend and transformed themselves into new capitalists.

The Ace family is one of them, with a thousand-year heritage that is extremely profound and has influence throughout Wayne City. Many industries are under their control.

Elena was not surprised that Carlin knew these things. She was just surprised that the other party, a rookie who was new to the supernatural, concluded that Drake was a person through some rumors about Drake and the Ace family without knowing a lot of information.

Extraordinary.

"Are you so sure?"

Carlin said directly: "When I learned about the existence of Chaofan, I was sure of one thing. If some big bosses in the upper city didn't know about Chaofan's existence, it would still be possible.

But a noble family like the Ace family that can be passed down for thousands of years must be an extraordinary family.

I have always believed in the truth that any status guaranteed by wealth and power may disappear in the next moment, but a status guaranteed by strength will not!"

In the years since he traveled back in time, Carlin has thought that if there is anyone in the world who is most likely to have extraordinary beings, apart from officially certified religious figures, the only ones left are nobles.

Strength is always the greatest guarantee of wealth, power and status.

The Ace family can ensure its influence in Wayne City. In addition to wealth, it also definitely plays a role in power. As its spokesperson in the lower city, there is a high probability that the black-gloved Drake is also a transcendent.

However, Elena said to him: "Your idea is a bit extreme. Although power is important, it is not everything. Many capital tycoons are not extraordinary, but this does not affect their current status."

After hearing this, Karin just shook his head in his mind but didn't say anything more. The other party may not have realized it yet, and now the spirituality in the mortal world is slowly recovering.

As spirituality recovers to a certain extent, transcendence will no longer be silent, and will inevitably have a strong impact on the existing social system.

When the power of an individual develops to the point where it can suppress a group, wealth, power and status without the protection of extraordinary power will become a castle in the air. He believes that Elena will realize this in the future.

Carlin no longer dwelled on this issue but changed the subject and asked: "Is the number of extraordinary people in Wayne City very rare now?"

"Yes, the city and surrounding villages and towns have a population of more than three million, but the total number of extraordinary beings is less than a hundred. This has taken into account those wild extraordinary beings who have not been registered with the Secret Service."

"Secret Service?" Carlin asked doubtfully.

Elena curled her lips after hearing this question.

"I almost forgot that you are still a rookie who knows nothing. Really, it has only taken less than a day to become a transcendent, but you feel like a veteran to me."

Elena then walked and talked, explaining to Carlin the extraordinary layout of Wayne City.

The entire Wayne City, the Ranger Association, the Ace Family and the official Secret Service are the three largest extraordinary organizations, and 30% of the extraordinary people are affiliated with the three major forces.

Several other extraordinary organizations have opened branches in Wayne City, and extraordinary individuals from these forces account for more than 30% of the total number of people.

The rest are unorganized wild extraordinary beings, or they became extraordinary beings by chance, or their ancestors once left some inheritance and were only recently rediscovered by future generations.

Generally speaking, the Secret Service is responsible for maintaining the order of the supernatural world in Wayne City, while the Ranger Association and the Ace family serve as official collaborators and provide some force and intelligence support when necessary.

But now, because there are not many extraordinary people, some vicious cases involving extraordinary beings are very rare, and there are very few cases when it is really necessary to fight and kill. The three parties are more inclined to cooperate and exchange resources.

This is true whether it is extraordinary or secular.

The Amazons backed by the Rangers control the route from the New World to Wayne City, and more than half of the resources flowing into Wayne City by sea are controlled by the Rangers.

As a local snake, the Ace family controls the shipping channels and will also give some official dividends.

For example, the market set up in the Blood Red House for all extraordinary people is run by the Ace family.

Karin also heard from Elena that although the average quality of resources in this market is not very good, the types are very rich. It is inevitable that some lucky people will not get some good goods to sell in the market.

However, she suggested that if Karin wanted to go directly to her father, Priest Kahn, she could purchase some resources that were rarely circulated in the market through internal prices.

"Uh, so am I considered a formal member of the Ranger Association now?" Carlin asked again.

Elena glanced at him sideways and said: "You can only be considered a peripheral member at best now.

If you want to become a formal member, you have to change the secret transmission, but only because of your relationship with me, you can enjoy some of the benefits of a formal member.

What do you think, little Carlin, do you want to switch genres? Every official member of the Ranger Association will have the opportunity to join after a strict examination. Most people will not encounter such a good thing!"

After hearing this, Karin hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Is it easy to change the secret transmission? There is no relevant content mentioned in the "Basic Encyclopedia of Extraordinary Persons"."

"Of course it's not easy. Different secret transmissions of the same school can be practiced perfectly at the same time, but it just requires more energy.

Only a very small number of secret transmissions from different schools can be studied together, but the probability of encountering two secret transmissions with little conflict is too small.

However, if you practice the secret transmission of one school, you cannot modify the secret transmission of other schools. It will take a lot of resources to arrange a conversion ceremony. If the quality of the ritual array is not good, there may be sequelae.

Schools with some strength have their own conversion rituals, which are also prepared by the schools to absorb high-quality new blood."

After hearing this, Kalin thought in his mind. The Rangers Association can be considered a big force. The advantage of joining such a big force is that there is no shortage of follow-up inheritance, and you can also enjoy some resources supplied by internal channels.

Accordingly, the future path will be determined by the professional route of the Ranger Association.

However, the Virtual Kingdom can perfectly integrate the secret transmissions of different schools, completely solving this shortcoming and giving him more choices.

After thinking about it for a while, Karin decided to wait and see and wait until he knew more about Chaofan before making a choice.

Thinking of this, he said: "I'll think about this first before talking about it."

After hearing this answer, Elena nodded in agreement: "It is about the choice of the future path. There is really no need to rush to make a decision. Maybe your father's inheritance is more suitable for you."

At this time, Carlin suddenly pointed to a bar ahead. There were two strong men in black standing at the door like two door gods on the left and right sides.

"Here we are."

Elena nodded and walked quickly towards the bar door, followed closely by Karin.

The two strong men guarding the door didn't even look at the strange attire of the two of them, with only their eyes exposed, as if they were used to this kind of attire.
