Chapter 1562: 476 Chapter The Secret Skill of the White Family_2 Chapter 1562: 476 Chapter The Secret Skill of the White Family_2 “Oh,” Leonard Churchill started to understand as he listened.

The Revolutionary Army had always lived a life of privation except for the combatants, most of the rest were freed slaves and the indigent.

They had been besieged by the Federation, deprived of the conditions necessary for normal survival and production. To sustain such a large organization, the funds and resources required were astronomical.

Apart from covert donations from various sources, most of the fundraising needed to be done by their leaders.

Sophia Jones had originally served as the chief steward at Flood Gang, not simply as a cover identity. It had been a major source of funds for the Revolutionary Army.

Now that the troops had relocated, their combatants could not stay indefinitely in the barren land of the East Wilderness.

They needed funds and transcendent resources.

It wasn’t just Sophia who needed Eighth Rank materials; many experts in her team also needed Seventh Rank materials.

Not everyone could comprehend Divine Power to progress to the Seventh Rank; using demon beast essence blood with Divine Beast ancestry was a shortcut that suited most people.

Hence the fortunate meeting just then.

Sophia continued, “We had considered finding resources in the Old Continent… but the situation there is very complicated now. Nobility from the Southern Continent are expanding their territories everywhere, establishing several large duchies. Alliance forces are besieged everywhere, leaving little room for our organization to survive, so we thought we’d give the Southern Continent a try…”

Demon beasts with Divine Beast ancestry weren’t lacking in the Old Continent, but many parts of the relics of the Taren Empire remained unexplored and risky.

It was much more straightforward to search in the Southern Continent.

Even with cash, those items could be purchased in the Southern Continent.

But for the cash-strapped Revolutionary Army, hunting in the Magical Beast Forest was more practical.

While speaking, she looked at Leonard and added with a smile, “Knowing you were in Giant Spirit City, I thought I’d check on you as well. It’s such a coincidence to have run into you.”

“Yes, indeed a coincidence.”

Leonard too felt it was quite coincidental, raising his glass, “Cheers.”

“Cheers.”

Sophia took a big gulp, a trickle of sparkling wine escaping her lips, running down her graceful neck, and disappearing into her bulging chest armor.

The fine wine swept away the fatigue of a long journey, and she seemed quite spirited; soon, several empty glasses piled up on their table.

Sophia also brought up their plans for this trip.

They had just gone to the Mercenary Union to look for information.

Now with a friend present, she directly inquired, “By the way, Leonard… we might not stay long in the city, do you have a reliable information merchant? We plan to seek some accurate information, then head to the Magical Beast Forest to find materials.”

“Of course!”

Upon hearing this, Leonard readily agreed.

He was the right person to ask.

When it came to information in Giant Spirit City, aside from a few official, major forces’ intelligence organizations, few could compare with Leonard.

He directly responded, “But Aunt Jones, you don’t need any information merchant… Just tell me what demon beast materials you need, and I’ll summarize the distribution of those beasts for you later. Of course, if you’re still unsure about the type of material, or unfamiliar with the Magical Beast Forest, you can also share the needs of your leaders with me, and I can help you assess…”

“…”

Listening to Leonard rattle on, Sophia harbored a hint of puzzlement in her sparkling eyes.

She knew Leonard had been in Giant Spirit City for quite some time.

Yet, she hadn’t realized just how ludicrously capable he was in the realm of intelligence.

Since they were casually drinking and chatting, Sophia said quite informally, “We haven’t decided on specific materials yet. After all, everyone has just come out of the East Wilderness, and our understanding of the Southern Continent has only been recently brushed up. We thought any materials that fit the professional sequence would suffice… So, we thought of consulting a reliable information merchant first.”

Transcendent materials that perfectly fit were not easy to come by, especially high-tier materials; many times, whatever was usable would suffice.

Moreover, Sophia was quite straightforward with her friend. The leaders had just exited the remote East Wilderness, and their knowledge of transcendence beyond the Seventh Rank was very limited due to a 3000-year lock-down by the Orlan Royal Family, especially concerning the resource-rich Southern Continent.

Not to mention the need for specific materials; previously, the overwhelming number of demon beast species in the Southern Continent had dazzled the leaders.

Understanding those material studies wasn’t something most could achieve in a year or two.

Let alone relying councillers were also from remote areas of the East Wilderness, and their knowledge in top-tier transcendence imposed by the Orlan Royal Family was very limited.

Especially considering the resource-rich Southern Continent.

Not to mention the specific materials required; even their understanding of the countless species of demon beasts in the Southern Continent was so overwhelming that it left leaders dazzled.

Deepening their comprehension of that material science wasn’t something most could achieve within a year or two.

Not to mention relying on any half-baked information merchant.

However, she just so happenedask any information merchant really… Just tell me what demon beast materials you need, and I’ll summarize those.alignments with the courses. If you haven’t specified yet… Well, this makes it easy.”

Sophia listened, her expression unexpectedly expectant, “Oh?”

No need to hold back in front of her, Leonard continued, “Sam of ‘Holy Hammer’ takes the ‘Red Heart A – Knight of Light’ route, focusing on physical strength. The Southern Continent is brimming with various Dragon Descendant materials, and Great Dragons themselves have the best Divine Beast ancestry. I suggest the Seventh Rank ‘Giant Strength Dragon Bear’ and ‘Bipedal Terra Tyrannosaurus’; these demon beasts can be found in multiple groups in the Magical Beast Forest, like ‘Leros Forest’ and ‘Edge Beast Den’ aren’t hard to find…”

“‘Blaster’ Rosin follows the Fire Element ‘Elemental Blaster’ line, and there’s a flying demon beast called ‘Dragon Claw Fire Raven’ in the Magical Beast Forest, capable of storing volcanic eruption-like energy, very suitable for that sequence… Found in ‘Enkart Raven Nest.’ However, these flying demon beasts are hard to capture, you’ll need to prepare in advance if you plan on targeting it…”
