By coincidence, the plunderers had received news of supplies on the train and blew up the railway line.

Coincidentally, Camilla and her group, the fourth party, also knew about the medical supplies on the train. They came to check and deal with the situation.

Killing many birds with one stone.

Playing the game of borrowing a knife to kill someone to the extreme.

The mastermind behind all this didn’t even have to show up, let alone send any troops.

Just a few pieces of misinformation were enough to get all these factions involved. It was a brilliantly devised strategy.

Leonard Churchill also found this situation interesting.

The aftermath alone would inevitably cause many deaths in the Sinless City.

Moreover, he had a feeling that the assassination of Governor Stan Miller was just the beginning of this storm.

However, this had nothing to do with Leonard Churchill.

He enjoyed a good show.

But he preferred to stay in the shadows, watching the chaos unfold.

Having a skilled individual like Camilla, it’s apparent that this “fourth party” must have a significant background.

Leonard Churchill wasn’t intending to pry into the identities of Camilla and her companion.

It would be disrespectful and unnecessary.

As long as they weren’t enemies, their identities didn’t matter.

At this time, Camilla, worried that her stupidly cute companion might have said something wrong, took the initiative to ask, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, you said earlier that you encountered the ‘Secret Keeper’?”

Leonard Churchill nodded, “Yes.”

At this remark, both Camilla and Tracy Garcia looked at him curiously, “What level of catastrophe is it? Can it be solved?”

Speaking of the beast, Leonard Churchill remembered the brief glimpse he had of it earlier, the sensation that made his spirit tremble was still vivid.

“It’s very tricky.”

His brow furrowed as he added, “It’s an S-rank catastrophe. Undying, and there are a lot of them. Don’t consider confronting it unless necessary.”

Hearing his words, Camilla’s expression immediately became serious.

She understood the weight of the term “very tricky.”

Previously in Space 407, the terrifying A-rank catastrophes didn’t bring the word “tricky” to Leonard Churchill’s lips.

But now, he was saying it.

In other words, this catastrophe could not be combated directly.

Camilla glanced back at him, “So?”

Leonard Churchill understood her question, he responded, “Crack the puzzle.”

“Mmm.”

Camilla’s bright eyes shifted, understanding what he had said.

Their conversation ended in just a few words.

Tracy Garcia, who had been eavesdropping to their conversation, was left dumbfounded: That’s… that’s it?

Apparently, she did not process information as quickly as Camilla and didn’t share their level of understanding.

She thought she had grasped the key point when she heard the phrase “Secret Keeper”.

Yes!

This time, she would listen carefully to the intelligence,

Analyze it,

And then figure out how to use the clues to solve the labyrinth.

However, before she could make any progress, the conversation had ended abruptly!

Tracy Garcia’s expressions under the gas mask were rich at this moment.

She looked at Camilla, and then at the guy whose expression was as stiff as a zombie. In her heart, she complained: Can’t you guys at least say a few more words?

My main point is…

I did not understand!

Tracy Garcia felt like she would seem stupid if she asked to clarify things.

She could only quietly ask something else, “Sister Camilla, how did you two meet?”

She and Camilla were closest companions, but she had never seen Leonard Churchill before and had never heard Camilla mention him. This was strange.

He seemed to have come out of nowhere.

“Well…”

Camilla was ready to explain.

However, when the words reached her lips, she stopped.

The incidents from Space 407 were sensitive topics; she couldn’t discuss them even with a close friend.

After all, the situation concerned not only her but the lives of many others.

As for Leonard Churchill, he wasn’t interested in this topic and didn’t feel like responding.

Nevertheless, their silence made the atmosphere awkward.

Camilla glanced at Tracy Garcia’s increasingly weird gaze and finally couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Leonard Churchill is a trusted friend. He saved my life before.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Tracy Garcia fell quiet.

But her curiosity was piqued.

If she wasn’t mistaken, the person before her was probably a Card Master Apprentice?

What abilities did he have to save Camilla?

Leonard Churchill hadn’t originally intended to engage in conversation, but hearing Camilla’s words caused him to shake his head slightly: “Miss Camilla is too polite.”

His choice to save her just now wasn’t solely based on Camilla’s “human radar” ability.

More importantly, within his capabilities, he was also repaying her kindness.

Leonard, who could coolly shoot someone in the head without a flinch, was not exactly a saintly character.

But he wasn’t heartless and ungrateful either.

A debt of gratitude, once incurred, isn’t absolved just by returning the favour.

Like a loan, even after repayment, the debt of gratitude still remains.

Without Camilla, he wouldn’t have made it out of Space 407.

And even after they came out, without Camilla providing backup, he wouldn’t have survived until now.

Such a debt of life-saving favour was no small matter.

However, after speaking up, Leonard didn’t say more.

He didn’t wish to sentimentalize matters. Instead, he turned to the task at hand: “By the way, Miss Camilla, do you still have the documents we found in the safe?”

“Yes.”

Camilla understood that if he was asking, then he must have needed them.

Upon saying that, she immediately brought out a stack of documents.

Without any qualms, Leonard took the documents, turned on the lamp, sat down and began flipping through them.

Taking advantage of the current lull, he wanted to see if he could translate some of it.

Considering the information obtained from the adventurer’s diary previously, it seemed that to leave the labyrinth, one must decipher a chamber containing Taren’s Classics.

Becoming familiar with it sooner had its advantages.

Seeing him browse through the ancient texts, Camilla didn’t ask him what he was planning to do.

In their previous collaboration in Space 407, Leonard had done many seemingly incomprehensible preparations.

But in the end, each of them turned out to be a key to breakthrough.

However, although she didn’t ask, she was indeed curious about what these documents could be used for.

And moreover, this was Taren’s Classics. Even among the scholars of Dragon City, few could comprehend it. Could he understand it?

Tracy Garcia, being straightforward, didn’t consider these factors. She glanced at the dense ancient writings on the documents and asked directly: “Mr. Leonard Churchill, are you a card disciple of ‘Wisdom Sequence’?”

“No.”

Without raising his head, Leonard casually responded.

He continued to flip through the documents, trying his best to recall the content he’d translated with the help of Enlightenment in Space 407.

Upon hearing this, Tracy Garcia said with surprise: “Ah… then can you understand these ancient texts?”

Leonard decisively shook his head: “I can’t.”

“???”

Hearing this, Tracy Garcia was clearly stumped for a few seconds.

Even Camilla gave him a very surprised look.

While she had no doubt about Leonard’s decryption abilities, this … reading a document he completely didn’t understand, what did that mean?

Unable to curb her curiosity, Tracy Garcia asked again directly: “Then what are you doing?”

Leonard didn’t hide anything and said frankly: “I’m learning now.”

Tracy Garcia:

Camilla:

Upon hearing this, both women inexplicably twitched at the corners of their eyes.

They had initially thought he understood Taren’s Classics.

At least to some extent.

But to learn it on the fly seemed absolutely unreliable, didn’t it?

Camilla was slightly shocked for a moment before she understood something.

Was he trying to recall the contents of the Enlightenment tips and combine them to translate the ancient text?

This… seemed downright impossible, didn’t it?

But Camilla had an inexplicable feeling that while it might be impossible for others, this guy might be able to do it.

She swept away her scattered thoughts. Since she had no insights regarding how to break through this, she decided to let those who were capable handle it.

Camilla closed her eyes and meditated.

Meanwhile, Miss Spirit Communicator looked sceptical.

But Leonard paid no heed to her thoughts and continued to study the documents. With his eidetic memory, he quickly immersed himself in the documents.

Both women did not disturb him again.

Just like this, the three spent three full days in the labyrinth..
