Chapter 101: Chapter 65 – The Second Secret Cause Spirit dium _3
Translator: 549690339
Feeling unwell due to the extre transcendent contamination in the area, the other two Corpse Collectors had no choice but to continue their work of collecting the bodies.
Initially, Leonard Churchill showed no abnormalities and carefully observed the situation in the basent.
After his experience in the maze, the sacrificial symbols no longer seed foreign to him.
The mysterious symbols on the “four pillars” in the maze were even more elaborate and complete than what he saw here.
It wasn’t until he had collected several bodies that he quietly moved deeper into the ritual area and spotted the “C” symbol.
The expected enlightennt display then appeared.
“You listened to the Demonic Whispers from the abyss. Spirit chaos exempted. You have touched the ‘Old Days Relic.'”
Upon touching the relic, he saw the dark energy from the bodies converging like thin lines on an inconspicuous brick in his field of view.
It was a sight he had seen before.
Seeing this, Leonard was relieved, “It’s still here, as expected!”
All their efforts were for this Secret Cause Spirit dium.
Moreover, the quality of this spirit dium was visibly superior to the one from Tailor Street.
Noting the dense outflow of dark energy strands, Leonard’s eyes sparkled with caution, “This spirit dium contains at least fifty percent more extraordinary traits…”
Maybe it was because the maze had one less pillar, or they had more ti, which allowed the Outer God Followers to create this upgraded spirit dium?
For Leonard, this was great news.
If he could absorb it, his attributes would certainly skyrocket again.
However, the risk of taking a second dium was much higher than taking just one.
But this thought was fleeting, as Leonard had already planned nurous strategies for managing this risk.
He had co for this object and had already prepared for it.
Leonard attempted to store the spirit dium in the Storage Ring but found that it could not be stored inside; the Containnt Card was also ineffective.
“Hmm… it can’t be contained.”
After thinking for a mont, he realized that the inability to store the dium was probably related to the “divine” property displayed in the enlightennt.
However, this wasn’t a big issue.
Taking advantage of the others’ distraction, he slotted the spirit dium into a corpse just like he had done previously.
Being unable to contain the dium was within his expectations, and the risks were equally foreseeable.
Taking this object for the second ti was undoubtedly a riskier move than before.
He needed to consu it as quickly as possible; no hiding place would be safe otherwise.
Half an hour later, all the bodies in the basent had been collected.
The Corpse Collectors were heavily contaminated, and they all appeared dazed, as if suffering from a heat stroke.
The Field Agents from Golden Oak Corporation used their antique cara to conduct a brief interrogation, as per their standard protocol, followed by the routine mory Erasing procedure.
Leonard, already familiar with the procedure, didn’t reveal any mistakes.
Dozens of corpses were loaded onto the Corpse Collector Truck, which left the Redwood District packed to the brim with bodies.
Sitting in a corner of the truck, Leonard murmured, “I wonder if the other two locations have been hit by now…”
In addition to the first anonymous letter, two more letters would be delivered by mail to the headquarters of Golden Oak Corporation at around eleven o’clock.
This was Leonard’s backup plan to divert attention while he focused on the second Secret Cause Spirit dium.
Consuming this precious spirit dium required ti, and each mont brought potential risks.
The Old Days Believers were certainly no fools.
After being robbed once, they would definitely take precautions.
If they realized the second spirit dium was missing, they would notice sothing amiss.
Since only the Field Agents and Corpse Collectors had visited the scene, an investigation was inevitable.
This potential second visit would likely not be as straightforward as the first one.
Therefore, Leonard had to buy himself so additional ti.
The other two anonymous letters simply pointed to a general location, but that was more than enough.
The Golden Oak Security Company had so experts who would naturally conduct an investigation.
Even if they stirred up the snake in the grass, the goal would still be achieved.
If the other two locations were discovered, the Outer God Followers would be too preoccupied to bother with Leonard.
This would considerably relieve the pressure on him.
He even thought the Golden Oak Security Company might dig deeper following the three leads, which could potentially eradicate the moon cult in one fell swoop.
That would eliminate any future trouble.
Of course, even if they did not find the spirit dium at Redwood Street, it was rely due to bad luck. After all, he had reported it and had acted as a responsible citizen contributing to the city.
Now that the object was in his possession, all Leonard had to do was consu it as quickly as possible.
Even with all these precautions, he had a feeling that things might not go so smoothly.
Votes are much appreciated at the beginning of the month..
