Chapter 549: 189 [Xismark Holy Grail]_4
Perhaps that was what he wanted him to get.
Leonard Churchill didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly, “What should I do then?”
The Cloaked-figure responded, “The Lionheart family has already discovered that Alternative Dimension with War Mode titled ‘The Third Holy Grail War: The Siege of Ironforge’. According to current intelligence, the Holy Grail has appeared in the event space of the plot. This is not a total war, in the normal plot, one can’t get the Holy Grail. But if you’re lucky, you might get it… Of course, there is also the possibility that you won’t.”
“…”
On hearing this, Leonard Churchill sank deep into thought.
Space of this kind of large-scale plot mode usually has many plot-related spaces, with varying levels of difficulty.
And the most important plot items inevitably appear in the final space of the highest difficulty space.
The title ‘Ironforge’ speaks of a not large yet not small campaign.
Logically speaking, they should not let the explorers who participated take the ultimate treasure away.
But it’s not absolute!
Just like the last time he got the secret treasure Power Gem Golden Sphere in the Alternate Dimension titled ‘Outpost Battle’, under normal plot conditions, hunters can’t obtain this item.
But since it has appeared, it could be obtained, albeit with extremely low probability.
Leonard Churchill only has three months of life left, whether or not he can grab it, he must give it a shot.
So upon hearing this intelligence, he already started considering how to participate in his mind.
Besides, it’s the War Mode…
Just hearing it was enough to get him excited.
The Cloaked-figure picked up on Leonard’s subtle change of expression, a slightly surprised look flashed in his eyes. He continued, “Currently, two stages of that alternate dimension’s plot have been discovered, the first is participating in city defense, the death rate is not low; the circumstances of the second stage remain unknown, nobody has survived it so far.”
Leonard arched an eyebrow, “The Holy Grail, could it be in the second part of the plot?”
A hundred-percent death rate, tsk, this won’t be easy.
“Mhmm.”
The Cloaked-figure nodded, reminding gravely: “You may need to explore deeper into the plot.”
In this level of alternate dimension, the Holy Grail cannot be obtained under normal plot conditions.
Therefore, one has to rely on digging deeper into the plot.
Leonard understood everything as he listened, and readily agreed to it, “Okay!”
Regardless of being exploited or anything else.
It’s true that the other party saved him.
Moreover, he could not refuse this intelligence.
Communication between smart people is usually straightforward, the Cloaked-figure also didn’t feel the need to explain anything, “Everything we know about that Alternate Dimension is here. If there is new information in the future, I’ll find an opportunity to send it to you,” he stated bluntly.
Leonard took the Wax Ball, and then asked straight away: “What else do you need me to do, sir?”
It would be best to leave everything out in the open since they were discussing a deal.
However, the Cloaked-figure shook his head, firmly stating, “I don’t need you to do anything. If you can bring the Holy Grail out, it will never appear in any dimension again. Just keep it and not to let it fall into the hands of others.”
“…”
Leonard Churchill’s eyes shifted, without asking anything further.
The Holy Grail involves the Ancient God and certain taboos. He didn’t want to invite trouble since the other party didn’t specify clearly.
Furthermore, whether or not he could obtain it was a different matter altogether.
…
Leonard felt much better upon waking.
The Cloaked-figure, having settled the matters at hand, didn’t plan to stay longer. He got up, “Now that you are awake, I am reassured. You should be aware that my identity is quite special; it’s not always good to stay longer.”
Leonard nodded, standing up to send him off.
At this moment, he bumped into the huge sword next to him, causing a resonating ‘clang’ sound.
The Cloaked-figure glanced at it, as if reminded of something. He then pulled out a sword sheath, “Since this sword ended up in your hands. You should have this as well.”
The sheath looked like it was made of deer skin. The light of the brown-yellow leather, patinated over time, gave it an old appearance.
It looked quite unremarkable, no different from the sword sheaths often carried by regular hunters.
Leonard looked at the palm-sized leather sword sheath, somewhat puzzled.
It was obvious that the X-099-Useless Great Sword, with a width of half a meter and nearly two meters in length, was not going to fit into this sheath designed for a single-handed sword. So, what’s the use of it?
The Cloaked-figure provided the explanation, “This Useless Great Sword originally came out from Orlan Treasury two hundred years ago. Those people stole the sword, leaving the sheath behind. The sheath itself is a space-containing treasure. If you wear it, it won’t seem so conspicuous.”
Upon hearing this, Leonard suddenly realized.
So, there are such good things.
The royal family truly was unique.
The Cloaked-figure did not say much, “Alright, I’m leaving now.”
Just as Leonard was about to say something, the figure had already disappeared before him, much like the previous few times.
But then, a voice came to his ears: “Oh, and one more thing. Since you’re friends with Little Garcia, if you don’t mind, you can call me ‘Auntie Garcia’ in the future.”
For someone who had saved her daughter several times, she didn’t harbor any ill feelings.
Upon hearing this, the distinguished air around him seemed to fade.
Instead, she felt more like an elder, the sense of alienation disappeared instantly.
Leonard also responded with a nod, and a smile, turning towards the darkness, “Mhmm. Goodbye, Auntie Garcia.”
No matter their relative power or the level of seniority, it seemed appropriate to call her thus.
