Now it seemed that this man’s research on the Extraordinary Power was unfathomably profound.

But it was not entirely unexpected.

If he had chosen to come, he must have considered that some parts would be exposed.

After all, that Cursed Spades 4 was crafted by him personally.

From the moment Leonard Churchill chose to trust Lord Nine Brown, he had taken a certain risk.

And this risk was within his estimates.

The so-called “Legendary Card-Maker” is those who could successfully craft cards of Legendary Quality themselves.

That includes Profession Cards, various Function Cards, Skill Cards… and even the Demon Mark!

Epic Cards hold a deadly attraction for others, but this Master Merlin may not necessarily think so.

Probably guessing his thoughts, Master Merlin shook his head and laughed, “Relax, young man. Each individual who comes here has their secrets. I am ’ interested in your mark, but purely on a research level. It’s just an Epic Source Card, although unattainable for others. But I’ve helped with more than a few fusions myself.”

With that, he added, “If you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t ask. And no one outside will know your secrets.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Leonard listened with an unchanged expression.

He did not believe that Master Merlin was merely a card-maker.

If the other party harbored hostility, other thoughts would be meaningless.

As long as the Master personally promised confidentiality, there was nothing to worry about.

And from what he heard in the latter half, he gained even more insights.

So one could ask for help in merging Epic Source Cards?

He surmised it was about asking the Master for help to control the mutation rate and such.

Master Merlin didn’t mention the Demon Mark anymore.

But Leonard could tell that the old man had taken quite an interest in him.

“Alright, you don’t need to transform anymore.”

While Master Merlin helped Seven Brown check the data, he asked, “Do you know why everyone who fused with that Cursed Spades 4 would mutate one hundred percent of the time?”

Leonard ventured his guess, “Because they couldn’t withstand the furious Extraordinary Traits boost brought by the Primordial Template?”

“It’s not just that.”

Master Merlin said, “It’s also because that Cursed Spades 4 was originally an experiment of mine.”

Leonard raised his eyebrows and looked at the Master, “An experiment?” Master Merlin confirmed, “Yes. An experiment related to Bloodline Reversion. This concerns an important conjecture for breaking the shackles of the Legendary Card Masters that have lasted for thousands of years… the Great Dragon bone that I got last time makes me even more certain that this direction is correct. But knowing this won’t make much sense to you now.” By this point, there was no more explanation coming from him. Instead, he continued, “I originally wanted to reclaim it, but someone beat me to it at the auction last time. So I just let it be. I didn’t expect you to successfully fuse it and revert so perfectly… It’s lucky that you came to find me. Otherwise, if you went looking for any other profession card to advance, it would have wasted such a great Mark talent and such a good foundation.”

Leonard also felt the same way.

Gauging from the professional degree of this man, coming to him was undoubtedly the right choice.

It seemed as though Master Merlin had a lot of ideas but said none of them in the end, instead stating, “I understand your situation now. But the Primordial Template of Air Skill Master that you need, has long disappeared in the river of history.”

Leonard didn ‘t feel disappointed after hearing this, he quietly waited for what was to come.

If the Master said it was gone, it probably couldn’t be found elsewhere.

Master Merlin added, “But I have a better choice. I know of an Air Skill Master professional template that has been passed down from the Rosa Dynasty. It is more compatible with your situation. But it needs some time to process. Once the crafting is done, I will message Nine Brown.”

By the time Leonard heard this, he knew his Second Tier professional template was secured, “Thankyou, Master.”

Master Merlin reminded him, “Right. The main material required for that template is the ‘elements’. You may need a Magic Core with at least Second Tier ‘brilliant silver’ Quality, preferably prefixed with ‘Excellent’, a Magic Core that can accommodate a variety of elements. But such monsters aren’t easy to find. I don t have any in stock here, so you’ll need to figure it out yourself.”

Leonard nodded, “Alright.”

Now that the template has been resolved, of course, he would find the materials himself.

He had just advanced to the First Tier not so long ago, so there was no rush.

Since he had encountered such a top-level master, Leonard took the opportunity to ask, “By the way, Master. Can something be done about my mental power problem?”

Master Merlin: “The best way to control mental power mutation is to cultivate the Mental Secret Skill. But your situation is very special… Your mental power is like that Tentacle Evil God, it is an individual entity, but the tentacles themselves each have an independent consciousness. If you only strengthen one of them, although it may temporarily suppress it, it will eventually get out of control. I can’t think of any mental secret skill that can solve this.”

Leonard became serious upon hearing this.

What Master Merlin had said might be the most authoritative diagnosis in the world.

Such a conclusion by a master like him implied that it probably really was not easy to solve.

But Leonard, who had long been able to face death calmly, did not view this long-standing issue as a disappointment.

Neither joy nor sorrow.

Watching Leonard’s calm demeanor, Master Merlin smiled lightly and said, “However, I do have a plan that might allow you to survive. It just depends on whether you are willing to undergo a bit of surgery.”

Leonard responded, “I would like to know more.”

Master Merlin elaborated, “It’s what you saw just now, the ‘Tentacle of Evil God’. I can help you excise a bit of diseased tissue from your brain, and then transplant a baby tentacle into your brain, which would continue to absorb your mental power. It would be physical suppression. As long as you don’t continue to cultivate mental power, you’d most likely survive. But there’s a problem. After the surgery, you ‘ll still be you, but you won’t be who you were before. You will lose a portion of your memory and cognition.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard immediately abandoned the thought and smiled, Thank you, Master. I will consider your suggestion carefully.”

If he had to give up a part of himself just to live,

It didn’t hold that much appeal to him.

Although he was often perplexed by the thoughts in his mind, They were his own.

Not long after, Leonard and Seven Brown left this amazing underground laboratory.

It was like they had just accomplished a deal.

Master Merlin was busy and had no interest in casual chat.

Although Leonard guessed there might be many more details to be unearthed about his Profession Card, he wisely didn’t ask much.

He knew he was at a too low level to be in contact with such things.

After all, Master Merlin had promised a Profession Card, the goal had been met. Since he knew this opportunity existed, he would have the chance to learn more later.

There was no rush.

And not long after Leonard and Seven Brown left,

A man wearing a black cloak and mask quietly arrived.

Master Merlin looked at the uninvited guest with a calm expression and said in an indifferent tone, “I haven’t seen this mask in a long time… Without guidance, you were able to get here silently, your skill is impressive. Are you the ‘Light Chaser’ of this generation’s Thirteen Masked Knights?”
