Chapter 129: Chapter 76: Holy Nail and Mask 3
Translator: 549690339 —
Leonard Churchill planned to visit the Black Market to look at Profession Cards and gather information about last night’s events.
Before long, he arrived at the Black Market on Dark Rain Street.
The Bounty Board, previously crammed with Bounty Orders, was now left with only a few.
At the top of the list was still the mysterious leader of the Silver Moon Sect.
The second on the list was that hunchback who controlled the undead.
And the missing Plague Doctor named Hensen.
Key figures had disappeared.
Although the item “Moon” was stolen in last night’s battle at the auction house, the Old Days Believers suffered heavy losses.
What differed was that their rewards had significantly increased.
They offered information about the aforementioned people, with rewards easily reaching millions.
While Leonard agreed that the extermination of Old Days Believers was a good thing, he still felt as though the empty bounty board lacked something.
After thinking for a while, he finally realized, “Huh… Baron’s bounty is gone?”
There was only one possibility: he was dead.
However, considering Baron’s power should be within the normal standards at his tier, it was not unusual.
He couldn’t resist a second tier and was barely qualified for the third tier.
In chaotic battles like last night, he could easily be the target and getting killed was not unusual.
Leonard Churchill’s expression subtly changed as he recalled Baron’s fusion of the “Cursed Spades 4”.
After suffering heavy losses, the Silver Moon Sect will not be able to make any significant moves for a while.
However, intuition told Leonard that he, the informant, should also leave the city to lay low for a while.
Leonard walked around the Black Market and found several old shops had closed, replaced by new ones.
The small shops in Sinless City were gradually closing down, which was an inevitable trend.
When he reached the entrance of Great Ivan’s Treasure Shop, it was still bustling with activity.
Originally, Leonard Churchill intended to go in and look at the Profession Cards.
However, as he approached, he noticed a huge advertisement board erected outside the shop.
The colorful message on it read: Our store will hold an internal auction at nine o’clock tonight, with Legendary Materials like Dragon Bone and Giant’s Flesh for sale. Please look forward to it.
Leonard’s heart skipped a beat upon seeing the materials.
Upon seeing these materials, he was well aware that they were the spoils of last night’s battle.
Although the mythic undead creatures summoned from who-knows-where weren’t entirely slain, some of their flesh and bones were chopped off. Legendary Materials…
These were top-of-the-line items that many people had never seen in their lives, let alone purchased for any purpose.
Great Ivan’s mysterious, powerful backer was not only business savvy but sharp as well.
The materials he procured last night were already in his shop today.
The internal auction was limited to VIPs of the shop, which would definitely attract a new wave of high-quality members.
Moreover, those interested in Legendary Materials would likely be the top echelons of Sinless City.
It was indeed a brilliant move…
Since Leonard was not at a level where he could utilize Legendary Materials, he did not have a reaction to this.
But as he looked further, he discovered that an odd item was mixed into the auction items list.
“Cursed Spades 4?”
Leonard Churchill’s face displayed a giant question mark.
Did Great Ivan’s shop manage to procure this item?
Card masters needed Profession Cards, and besides buying finished cards in
the store, they could also procure card-making templates.
Just like buying a potion formula.
With a formula, one could gather the materials and concoct it themselves.
Although it might be a bit troublesome and would require the help of a card master for production.
However, the probability of obtaining a silver template was much higher than that of purchasing a finished card.
It also offered a bigger range of options.
Moreover, both Profession Card templates and Breathing Method could be reused, thus were relatively cheap.
Leonard’s original aim today was not to buy a finished Profession Card. He just wanted to enquire whether there was a suitable card template available. However, unexpectedly, among the auction items, he saw the Cursed Spades 4. This was not a finished card or a template but a “Bloody Fragment”.
Normally, when a Curse Card Master integrates a gold quality Profession Card or above, and if the Extraordinary Traits hadn’t completely integrated, it is possible to extract “Template Fragments” from it.
Well… it’s like undigested food in a dead person’s stomach.
Even though this thought might be discomforting.
This would be one of the ways a large portion of top-tier cards were passed on in the market.
For example, some Legendary Cards and Epic Cards.
Cards of this level consisted of physical manifestations of the high-level laws, which were stable and not easy to destroy.
Even if the Extraordinary Traits were completely absorbed, the template would still remain.
Just by integrating some corresponding Extraordinary Materials, it could again become a complete card.
Gold Cards might only have a probability of less than 10% to be analysed, but the chance for Legendary Cards exceed 50%, and Epic Cards almost always have 100% chance of being analysed!
Since these cards were obtained from corpses, they were also known as “Bloody Fragments”.
Once they appear, they usually imply a valuable item.
The same could be said for Demon Mark.
Leonard also understood that this was why the Fourth Master of the Miller Family was desperate to hunt him down and played the “kill for a card” game. However, Bloody Fragments usually only appeared when a third tier or higher Curse Card Master died.
Becaue typically, a first or second tier Curse Card Master could only integrate a silver quality Profession Card at most.
Leonard hadn’t considered this angle before.
But now that Baron, a first tier, was dead, the Profession Card he integrated had been successfully analysed.
The only explanation was that the Cursed Spades 4 was unique.
Leonard immediately became interested.
The conditions to participate in this auction were that one must be a second tier VIP.
He had used his anonymous VIP card twice, which exactly made him a second tier VIP.
The auction would take place tonight. It would certainly be interesting to take a look.
Even if he couldn’t buy it, he wanted to see what was special about this Profession Card..
