Chapter 700: Chapter 230: A Leisurely Day with Music at Flood Gang_2
“`
Leonard Churchill thought of this, his mouth corners lifting slightly and he thought to himself, “Tsk tsk, Old Bible must have been shocked when he first guessed that the little assistant by his side was a ‘Pursuer of Light.’ And when he suspected Mushroomhead had an ulterior motive for being close to him, he had actually already entered the ga…”
The mutual understanding during the ti Noah Wright acted as the assistant also beca a crucial basis for judgnt.
Reuel Bible was upright and reliable, full of a sense of justice, and ticulous in his thinking.
Noah Wright was certain that Reuel Bible would make such a choice.
And indeed, he did.
When it was a matter of great importance, Old Bible knew his mission and decisively altered so of his own mories and cognition, becoming an essential and critical part of this plan.
What looked like a simple case of defection and pursuit made both sides of the layout truly surface only when this point was understood.
Of course.
Leonard Churchill could realize these things because Reuel Bible understood him just as well.
Just as Noah Wright was certain that Reuel Bible would choose to get involved in this incident,
That friend Old Bible was also sure that the secret ssage he left would be seen.
“Tsk tsk, things are getting more and more interesting…”
Leonard Churchill laughed and shook his head, suddenly feeling like the conspiratorial clouds above his head had dispersed.
Although he still couldn’t see the full scope of the plan, he had already seen the light.
Now he knew that he had also beco part of the ga, turned into a chess piece.
He didn’t feel bad about it at all.
Leonard Churchill had been looking forward to such a shining mont in life.
It was like receiving a suspense script with layers of twists; participating in such a stage play was sothing to look forward to.
This aligned with a saying from Barre Shepherd, the predecessor before the last ‘Pursuer of Light’, who used to say: Isn’t everyone a chess piece in life? Recognizing oneself in the ga is already a great realm.
…
Following this train of thought, everything beca clear.
It was like a poker ga between experts.
The players could guess what cards the other held just by looking at the cards in their hands and those already revealed on the table.
The outco of the ga doesn’t just depend on the hole cards.
More importantly, it tests the players’ “skill” and “layout”.
Fishing requires bait.
The bigger the fish, the bigger the bait needed.
This Pottery Jar must be extrely important to certain people in X Bureau.
But if they wanted to solve the problem of the Pursuer of Light once and for all, they had to use substantial bait.
They wanted to fish.
Noah Wright wanted the bait.
Maybe he even wanted to pull the fisherman into the water as well.
“Hehe… so with that said, as an important chess piece, I’m actually quite safe?”
Leonard Churchill’s eyes were bright with spirit.
His current perspective couldn’t completely penetrate the intricate arrangents.
However, so things had now beco clear.
For instance.
Before “Pursuer of Light” is caught, neither Old Bible nor Leonard Churchill himself is really in danger.
Perhaps there would still be chases from X Bureau afterward.
But he was likely to “fortunately” escape.
Leonard Churchill smiled resignedly at this thought.
Having the jar in hand wasn’t trouble; it was more like a talisman.
As long as the Pursuer of Light wasn’t hooked, no one would co to trouble him.
Once Leonard Churchill thought it through, the sense of crisis he had before vanished completely.
As Reuel Bible’s secret ssage had said, “Wait for the result.”
“But on another note, that guy Noah Wright’s abilities feel like they’re related to the ‘Law of Destiny’…”
Leonard Churchill grew even more curious.
Because of the [JOKER], he had a high compatibility with the fifty-two Demon God Sequence.
Thus, he had an easier ti understanding those Demon God abilities than others.
He had already vaguely guessed Noah Wright’s Professional Sequence.
…
Once everything was understood, his thoughts beca coherent.
Leonard Churchill no longer had to worry about exposing himself or about Reuel Bible’s safety.
“But this jar…”
Leonard Churchill looked at the jar in his hand, no longer feeling it was a hot potato.
To others, this jar was trouble, but for him, it was a treasure.
Curse and Faith Pollution were not a problem.
Two effects of the [X-711-Useless Pot] had already been tested: one was “anti-curse,” and the other was “Spirit Gathering.”
Carrying the jar around gave a boost to his ditation.
One jar provided about a fivefold efficiency increase;
Two jars about sixfold;
Now with the third…
This one had a crack, and holding it, Leonard Churchill felt a distinct difference.
Putting aside the Contaminations, the “Spirit Gathering” effect was significantly amplified.
At that thought, he sat down cross-legged and started ditating to test it out.
A few hours later, Leonard Churchill opened his eyes from the ditation.
Looking at the Curse Power increase on his Attribute Panel, he exclaid with surprise, “Huh… Three jars together actually give a twelvefold increase?”
Normally, three intact jars would probably not result in more than a sevenfold increase, he estimated.
But now, it sumd up to twelve!
It was an unexpected surprise.
The only difference now was that this jar had a crack.
It was clear at this point that the jar’s effect was “anti-curse,” and the thing inside it was “Spirit Gathering.”
Seeing the effect, Leonard Churchill couldn’t help but think: “What exactly is inside this jar that seems to automatically gather errant Elents. If it could be fully opened, how exaggerated that would be…”
But this thought was imdiately suppressed.
Leonard Churchill didn’t think opening it was a good idea.
But for now, it was beneficial.
Curse Power was the foundation for any card master.
It just happened to be the perfect ti, as he was learning the later parts of the “Gluttony” Secret Skill Mantra from old ntor Barre Shepherd, and the Breathing thod efficiency had also skyrocketed.
