Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 1716

Chapter 1716: Chapter 521 Susu Garcia’s Farewell_3

As she spoke, she took out a scroll and a Sealed Secret Box, addressing Leonard Churchill and the other two, “This Secret Box is what my ancestors from the Garcia Family left behind… I can no longer leave the Underworld, so I entrust it to you.”

“…”

Leonard Churchill looked at the box before him with a solemn expression.

Hiding it in the Underworld was indeed the safest and most secure choice–one that no one except for the Garcia Family could find.

Without guessing, he knew that inside this Secret Box was the origin card of the Plum Flower Q.

Just as those Spell Clay Pots could seal Outer Gods, this origin card was also the greatest restraint against the Moon God Arachne.

Seeing this object, Leonard Churchill also saw hope for breaking the deadlock in the East Wilderness now under the control of the Silver Moon Sect.

Susu Garcia didn’t say much more but used her Mental Power to convey the usage method of the items inside the Secret Box.

Leonard Churchill listened with furrowed brows.

It was a method, indeed, but certainly not an easy one.

However, before he had time to think further, Susu Garcia passed the scroll over and said, “You must have heard from Little Garcia, our Garcia Family’s inheritance is very special… Please entrust this scroll to that girl Little Garcia…”

“…”

Leonard Churchill had heard from Tracy Garcia before that the inheritance of the Great Priest Lineage was through a rite of blood empowerment.

Meaning, after the death of the previous High Priest, the next generation would inherit her transcendent cultivation and those legacies.

The scroll enclosed Susu Garcia’s cultivation.

Taking out this item also meant that Auntie Garcia before him had reached the end of her life.

Leonard Churchill remained silent, saying nothing.

Noah Wright and Sophia Jones by his side paid their solemn respects.

If Elder Garcia had not ventured to the Underworld to find that box, she would not have encountered this predicament.

It was not as she said–about destiny. Rather, she protected the sacred mission of the Great Priest Lineage, as well as the Card Master Civilization.

Susu Garcia looked at their serious expressions and smiled faintly.

Her demeanor seemed more open-minded than theirs, undisturbed by the fact that she was approaching the end of her life. Thinking of this, she looked at Leonard Churchill, her eyes twinkling with contentment, adding, “Also, if you could, please look after Little Garcia for me. That child is too kind-hearted and naive, many things make one worry… I’m afraid she will be deeply distressed…”

She was not just a High Priest, but also a mother.

Only after taking care of formal matters did she speak of her most beloved daughter.

Leonard Churchill, hearing these words, responded with a simple “Hmm.”

Seeing his agreement, Susu Garcia’s eyes gleamed with reassurance.

….

The atmosphere inside the carriage instantly fell into silence, with no one speaking.

Leonard Churchill and the others felt no joy for escaping the Netherworld Channel.

The train was still speeding along, the fog outside the windows was inscrutable.

After a long while.

Susu Garcia saw the coffin inside the carriage and said, “Oh yes, the coffin at the front of the train, you can leave it here; it needs to absorb some Soul Power in the Underworld… and now with Dead Dragon Marlodis returning, he will probably seek this coffin. When you can read the contents of the Forbidden Ruins Stele, you will naturally understand its purpose.”

Leonard Churchill nodded earnestly: “Hmm.”

Susu Garcia continued, “You have come to the Netherworld Channel, so you must have learned the secrets of the ‘Day Without Light’. This Demon God Secret Skill of the sequence is very special. It’s the most direct skill in the fifty-two-sequence that allows one to sense the secrets of God Tier powers. Incompatibility is a transcendent ultimate Secret. All Elemental Laws ultimately converge upon ‘Incompatibility’. Because this Secret Skill directly points to transcendent mysteries, it was regarded by the Taren Empire’s Royal Family in its later stages as a Forbidden Technique not to be divulged…”

Leonard Churchill then understood that the Royal Family’s reason for secrecy was fear of affecting their governance and rule.

Putting aside the vague despondency in his heart, he thought of something and asked, “Aunt Jones, I saw before that the Divine Power on Dead Dragon Malodis was almost identical to that of the Weeping Angel, is that ‘Incompatibility’?”

“Yes,”

Susu Garcia nodded, “If possible, you should start contemplating the cultivation insights of ‘Day Without Light’ from now on. However, the Underworld is too dangerous, not a place for Living Creatures to linger. If you truly wish to go later, you and Little Garcia can visit the coordinates left by our ancestors, but don’t wander off…”

She spoke as if to her own younger generation, unfettered, “Oh, right, there’s also the Augustus Imperial Tomb in the Rune Highlands. The secrets related to this are also recorded on The Emperor’s Stele there. If you aim to reach Eighth Rank, you’ll need to form your own Little Rune; you can go to the Imperial Tomb to explore further…”

Leonard Churchill: “Hmm.”

Susu Garcia: “Also, the Guardian Angel. Our ancestor definitely left a hope for Its Resurrection. But it won’t be easy. I’m not clear on the specifics. Only when Little Garcia can fully understand the Secret Skill on the Book of the Undead will there be a possibility. When that time comes, you can convey this to It, lest someone says the Garcia Family breaks their word. Before that, the Angel’s Divine Power can aid your cultivation in this Secret Skill…”

“…”

Leonard Churchill listened intently.

Unbeknownst to them, the train had reached another station and slowly came to a halt.

Susu Garcia looked at everyone and said indifferently, “The train has reached the station. I won’t see you off.”

Looking at the elderly figure with white hair before him, Leonard Churchill knew this might be their final farewell. He felt a certain heaviness in his heart but ultimately managed to say only one sentence: “Auntie Garcia, goodbye.”

Sophia Jones, Noah Wright, and Bonnie all stood up in unison, bidding farewell with a bow.

Susu Garcia nodded to them all, her cloudy eyes suddenly glistening, as if she saw the future of the Card Master Civilization.

This baton, she passed on to these young people.
