Chapter 1245: Chapter 383: Using the White Family and Silver Moon Sect as a Shield_3 Chapter 1245: Chapter 383: Using the White Family and Silver Moon Sect as a Shield_3 This Leonard Churchill’s mental power brought an exponential increase.

But at the same time, the hidden dangers also emerged.

As other personalities gradually became stronger, the risk of losing control would increase.

This was also the reason Lenny had mentioned before why the High-Order Card Masters in their Trickster lineage were prone to Mental Deformation.

Leonard didn’t plan to strip away those uncontrolled personalities.

So, this was another reason he wanted to make a trip to the Silver Moon Sect.

The other personalities he had previously suppressed relied on the “Void Moon Mind” Secret Skill of the Silver Moon Sect.

But previously, due to a lower realm, the Secret Skill he comprehended was rudimentary, and it no longer fully met the current needs for the growth of his Sixth Tier mental power.

Leonard planned to visit Silver Moon Headquarters in City of Thieves to see if he could obtain the continuation of the Contemplation Secret Technique.

Moreover, he had just advanced, and his realm wasn’t stable enough yet.

There was no method more straightforward than absorbing some Transcendent substances to stabilize it.

He also wanted to see if there were any Transcendent substances like Spirit Mediums in the sect.

After all, this was no longer the small Old Days Sect that Leonard once knew in Sinless City with their minor skirmishes.

But rather, a colossal entity supported by countless believers offering their faith.

…

As he walked, several nuns approached him.

They looked like young female students in their attire.

Leonard wasn’t wearing the Moon Cross Medal, nor did he bear any church insignia. This made the nuns immediately confirm that he was not a believer of the God, so they took the initiative to approach him.

One of the nuns who looked rather appealing said enthusiastically, “Sir, we cordially invite you to join our Silver Moon Church, to become Lord Arachne’s most loyal believer… The Moon God will bestow upon us endless joy…”

Leonard looked at them and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.

Instead of rejecting them, he replied directly, “Praise be to the great God.”

Leonard had spent a considerable amount of time within the Silver Moon Sect.

If one were to speak of understanding the doctrines, he knew them better than the believers.

The young nuns, seeing how easily Leonard had agreed, also happily led him to a nearby prayer site.

The last time he was undercover and got exposed was primarily because of the small circle, and Leonard had always been entangled with that “incarnate body” of the Moon God.

Having been exposed once, he learned his lesson.

Now that there were billions of followers in the Silver Moon Sect, and Leonard was no longer that Low-Rank Card Master, he didn’t think he would be so easily exposed again.

…

To ensure that the White Family and the Silver Moon Sect were sufficiently prepared for the impending crisis, Leonard also took the time to write an “intelligence secret letter.”

He had been a spy in the Southern Continent army and was very familiar with various military correspondence formats and encryption methods.

In the tone of Southern Continent scouts who had infiltrated the city, he wrote several letters.

The gist was, “The Holy Church will soon have an important military mission in the City of Thieves, with experts arriving…”

No need for too much detail, with experts among them, the White Family would definitely guess.

The White Family’s intelligence personnel were also very professional. Leonard made a trip to a tavern, and “by coincidence,” those secret letters were intercepted.

Even if they were suspected, it would definitely raise attention.

After all, now that the White Family was led by High Priest Orlan, they knew they were a key focus for the Southern Continent and were always on guard.

Leonard’s intention with these letters was simply that when Southern Continent’s forces really arrived, the White Family would be biased into thinking they were targeted at them, thus they would join the battle immediately.

…

The following evening.

Leonard changed into evening attire and, following the address, went to the largest Silver Moon stronghold in the West District–the White Dove Holy Hall.

High-Order Card Masters have firm wills, making it difficult to be affected by low-tier contamination from moonlight.

The Silver Moon Sect also valued these candidates highly for their combat power and stronger faith.

Leonard was now assuming the identity of a Fourth Tier Hunter he had once met on the Old Continent, who had already died in battle.

So yesterday after registering at the sub-branch, the bishop there informed him to come today to the White Dove Holy Hall, hinting at a higher standard of joyous ball.

West District, Iron Knight District–here lay a row of luxurious estates.

This district was originally the City of Thieves’ affluent area.

White Dove Holy Hall at number 441 was a building with a spire decorated with colored sloped glass, and it was also the most luxurious estate of the entire district.

When Leonard arrived, he saw the roadsides filled with a variety of luxurious motor vehicles.

Upon entering the estate, there were already many people there.

Ladies from wealthy families in gorgeous gowns, beautiful young noble ladies, gentlemen wearing top hats and carrying canes…

People were gathered in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing with glee.

Though called a Silver Moon Sect prayer ceremony, it more closely resembled an upper-class ball.

Leonard, already familiar with the social interactions of the upper-class society, strolled in with ease.

However, while the garden was still relatively normal, the moment he walked into the hall, he saw young men and women with bare skin embracing and dancing fervently in the dance pool…
