Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1216 - Chapter 1216 Chapter 374 City of Thieves_3

Chapter 1216: Chapter 374: City of Thieves_3 Chapter 1216: Chapter 374: City of Thieves_3 But now, a certain logical thread in his deduced had physical proof.

Originally, Leonard Churchill didn’t feel much about those ancient characters’ quirks.

But when he found out that the Black Demon was a cross-dressing outfit, he suddenly felt that this overwhelmingly dominant Relic had lost its appeal.

Sophia Jones watched his somber expression and couldn’t help but smile, revealing her teeth.

Yet she still remembered to remind him, “But you still need to be careful. This glove will contaminate your soul, and once you put it on, you won’t be able to take it off. Don’t use it if it’s not necessary.”

“…”

Leonard Churchill felt even worse after hearing this.

What had seemed like a treasure suddenly seemed tainted.

Unfortunately, the earliest history that the records of the White Family Head could trace was also only until the middle and late Taron period, several eras away from Emperor Lanlingster.

But at the same time, he was perplexed.

The Great Emperor who had stepped into the God Tier was definitely not in need of the twisted pleasure that came from a cross-dressing fetish… right?

Instead, it might be a necessary process for achieving some special purpose.

Perhaps… a ritual?

“Eh…”

The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Leonard Churchill sucked in a breath of cold air, not even knowing why such an idea had come to him.

But it seemed that only such a possibility could reasonably justify that Great Emperor’s past experience of transforming into a witch.

“A ritual?”

Leonard Churchill thought for a moment then became uncertain again, “What kind of ritual requires transforming into a witch?”

As a senior of the same Sequence, Leonard Churchill couldn’t help worrying about whether the JOKER Sequence might have some strange ritual that he must undergo in the future.

The heights at which Emperor Lanlingster stood were beyond his comprehension. Unable to conjure any solutions, Leonard Churchill let out a complex, faint sigh.

The two left the platform.

Not far ahead loomed a brightly lit, towering city.

This was the main stronghold that the White Family had operated for over a thousand years–the City of Thieves.

…

The City of Thieves was one of the largest cities in the western part of the Federation, with an extremely large area and a population exceeding ten million.

Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones entered the city and were greeted by a scene of prosperity.

Towering chimneys stretched straight into the clouds of smoke, with the Mechanical Factories roaring loudly.

This was a city that blended machinery with tradition.

The buildings in the city boast post-Federation Era skyscrapers as well as Orlan period retro-style peaked cottages.

The streets were crowded with people, with intersecting train tracks, and steam trains whistling past from time to time.

In the sky, over a dozen massive airships were propelled by giant propellers, floating leisurely.

Under the airships dangled huge advertising banners displaying a gigantic Moon along with straightforward slogans: Pleasure, Dreams, Thousand Faces of the Moon.

Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones looked up to see the advertisement of the Silver Moon Sect and frowned in unison.

With official support, the faith of the Silver Moon Sect spread like a plague.

Walking on the streets, one could see people everywhere discussing wars and the Silver Moon Sect.

“Wow, the Silver Moon Sect really spends money freely. The cost of advertising on an airship is massive, I remember it’s over a million a day? Tsk tsk, yesterday there were only three banners, and today they’ve all been replaced.”

“Hey, didn’t the Federation use to ban the propagation of the Old Days Sect, calling it evil…? Now how come there are followers of the Silver Moon Sect everywhere on the streets?”

“You don’t know? The Silver Moon Sect is now officially promoted, otherwise, would they allow such advertising? Anything official recommends can’t be wrong. Besides, you don’t know–the church is said to be full of beauties. As long as you are a believer, no matter what status you have, you can do whatever you want… I’ve even heard that noble ladies and madams who are usually high up can do anything as long as you’re devout enough to God…”

“Really? If that’s the case, I really want to go have a look!”

“Of course, you think the powers of ‘Master of Dreams and Pleasure’, Lord Arachne, are made up?”

“…”

Leonard Churchill and Sophia Jones were walking when a group of people passed by.

Listeing to the lively discussion about the Silver Moon Sect, the two exchanged glances, their expressions grave.

The situation in the East Wilderness was becoming increasingly complicated. In addition to the destruction caused by wars and chaos, Faith Pollution was also a big problem.

However, they didn’t come to the City of Thieves for this.

In the city center not far away, there was an expansive estate.

They were almost at their destination and came to a stop.

Sophia Jones looked into the distance and said indifferently, “They know I’ve arrived.”

Even in the heart of enemy territory, there wasn’t the slightest change in their expressions.

Leonard Churchill also lifted an eyebrow and asked, “Aunt Jones, are you sure you want to go alone?”

“Mm.”

Sophia Jones nodded, glanced at Leonard Churchill, knowing what he was thinking, and said, “There’s no big problem. It’s not just humans who call the shots in the White Family; the Immortal Aegis Animals also have a large say. The White Family have set up an arena, and I’ve come according to the rules. They wouldn’t dare to break them.”

“Mm.”

Leonard Churchill shrugged in response.

He wasn’t worried.

He wanted to see the excitement.

Nowadays, no one in the East Wilderness could stop Sophia Jones.

If the White Family played by the rules, there would be a fair fight.

If they didn’t follow the rules, the Immortal Aegis Animal that Sophia Jones had a contract with probably wouldn’t sit by and do nothing either.
