Chapter 1471: Chapter 451 Mythical Creatures*Elemental Elf Chapter 1471: Chapter 451 Mythical Creatures*Elemental Elf “Is this… an original copper fragment?”

Sack looked at the fragment, and his gaze was immediately drawn to it.

The copper was inscribed in High-level Demon Language, which for ordinary people, were mysterious symbols that were hard to remember even upon seeing them.

However, as ‘pseudo high-level beings,’ dragon descendants existed on a life tier higher than humans, bringing innate transcendent cognitive abilities through their bloodline.

Sack, a pure-blooded dragon descendant, although unable to understand the High-level Demon Language on the fragment, sensed that it was extraordinary.

In his family’s tradition, there were some references about the “original copper fragment,” which led him to make a guess.

When the goateed stall owner heard Sack recognize the origin of the fragment, his face immediately brightened like a daisy, and he showered flattery, “Young Master, your knowledge is truly extensive. Few besides you would recognize this, even after consulting many appraisers…”

Recognizing it was advantageous, as only those who recognized its value knew what it was worth.

However, there were only over fifty original copper fragments in existence.

Most were known to be stored within the treasure vaults of the Royal Family and the Holy See.

Some were located in the East Wilderness and places yet unexplored, with very few people having seen the original.

Sack knew this type of vendor wouldn’t dare to deceive him.

Seeing such a legendary treasure for the first time, he grew curious, “Which sequence of the Demon God Secret Skill is recorded on this fragment?”

To most, the original copper fragment meant nothing.

After all, what card masters needed was not the copper piece itself but the Demon God Secret Skill recorded on it.

In other words, the fragment was merely a rare antique.

It had collectible value, yet required a suitable buyer.

Ordinary people wouldn’t and couldn’t afford to buy it.

Additionally, the Fifty-two Demonic God Secret Skill seemed out of reach for others, but for students of the Royal Academy, it was accessible if they passed specific academy tests and could choose a matching Secret Skill from the library’s collection.

Realizing the situation, the goateed stall owner quickly explained, “Young Master, I’m not sure myself. After all, this fragment was brought out of the Magical Beast Forest from an ancient tomb never explored before just three days ago. I guarantee with my life that this is a new fragment that even the Royal Academy doesn’t have records of!”

Hearing this, Sack’s interest deepened, “Not recorded?”

Not being recorded implied the fragment could potentially have some “new Demon God Secret Skill.”

If so, the value of this fragment would be completely different.

Leonard Churchill, listening to the conversation, was also quite surprised.

If the vendor hadn’t lied, this was indeed a supreme treasure.

“Yes.”

The goateed stall owner was obviously proud of the origin of his goods and added, “The one who brought out this fragment is a close friend of mine, and the source is absolutely reliable.”

As he spoke, he continued, “I’ve even had the Black Market’s top appraiser, Danchel, look at it. Although he couldn’t decipher the content on the fragment, Mr. Danchel said it might be a Secret Skill related to ‘resurrection.'”

A Secret Skill related to resurrection was likely a Healing Path Secret Skill, like the [Heart 3-Priest].

Oh, in the East Wilderness, this sequence is called [Combat Medic].

The exclusive Demon God Secret Skill of this sequence is called ‘Resurrection Foul Ritual’.

Legend has it it has miraculous resurrection effects, but Leonard had never seen anyone truly resurrect.

After all, none of the inherited fifty-two Demon God Secret Skills today is complete. Even if the copper fragment is intact, no card master could fully comprehend all the contents of the Secret Skill.

At present, high-tier priests could only achieve healing effects, merely saving people clinging to a breath of life.

The effect is somewhat similar to Leonard’s known spell “Curse of Immortality,” which ensures that as long as the team’s healer knows this Secret Skill, the teammates essentially won’t die.

But the Curse of Immortality is for self-use, while ‘Resurrection Foul Ritual’ is for others.

…

Young Master Sack, now thoroughly intrigued, directly asked, “How is this sold?”

If genuine, its value was immeasurable.

Leonard also wondered what price it would take to acquire it.

However, unexpectedly on hearing the price query, the goateed stall owner changed his previously mercenary demeanor, offering a chest-guarding bow, “I would like a hereditary baron title.”

Gold Coins might run out, but a title is inheritable.

With a title, one truly ascends in class, not just in his lifetime but also providing a foundation for his descendants.

But in the Southern Continent, only a King with Kingship can grant a hereditary title.

Such a merchant meeting a King was impossible.

Usually, even if they possessed treasures, there was no avenue to obtain a title.

But now it was different; the strategy was to go to those dukes on the Old Continent developing new territories!

Developing new territories offered abundant lands and titles, a rare opportunity.

It was also the best way to secure a title.

Upon hearing this, Sack’s eyes chilled, “Do you know who I am?”

Although young, he wasn’t naive. This goal-oriented transaction was hard not to suspect of ulterior motives.

Hearing his tone change, the goateed merchant quickly responded, “The emblems of nobility on your and the knights’ buttons shine in the dark like torches. The glory patterns of the Thunder Dragon and Blood Cross, leading to the great ‘Thunder Origination,’ ‘Dark Liberator,’ ‘Radiant Hero,’ ‘Guardian of Truth’… the Landon Family. Please forgive my bold guess, you must be Young Master Sack.”

…

Sack, hearing this, felt somewhat mollified.

Being able to fully articulate the honors of his Landon Family implied deep knowledge of noble emblems.
