Chapter 349: Too Strange, Take Another Look

Chapter 349: Too Strange, Take Another Look

May 19th, 9:30 PM, 150 minutes until the 20th.

The 72nd floor of the Senhaeser Building, usually a haven for introverted gamers in the virtual entertainment zone, was now crowded with a large group of social monsters.

“Edifel, Philippe, Bosch, Bierse, Suotian...”

Leite lifted his Red Hat, revealing his tousled red hair and his Miracle eye engraved with a spell formation. His laughter carried a hint of madness: “To think that I can meet with the six patriarchs of Vamora’s Six Heraldry at the same time, even a legendary sorcerer wouldn’t have such an honor, right?”

“Indeed,” the trench coat man said. “The last time the six patriarchs met was the last time.”

“That must have been hundreds of years ago, right?” the ponytail woman said. “How come nothing happened during the terms of the previous patriarchs, but now it’s my turn and such a big event occurs?”

“Isn’t this a good thing?” said the lazy man with a fisherman’s hat, smiling. “Bierse, you haven’t been a patriarch for long, have you? Someone like me, who’s been a patriarch for decades, eagerly anticipates these little episodes that can bring a change to the monotonous life.”

“It might just be pure noise,” the man with glasses said, taking out a comb to straighten his bangs. “Be careful not to harm Senhaeser’s family and resolve it quickly.”

Banjeet looked at the men and women before him, temporarily suppressing his grievances against Igor, replaced by the awe of witnessing a legend.

The Six Heraldry Patriarchs!

Leaders of Vamora, representatives of eight million people, inheritors of millennia-old families! Even in the entire Kingdom of Gospel, they are formidable figures, overlords of their domains!Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.comong outsiders who have seen Vamora’s current state, the Six Heraldry Patriarchs are often regarded as second only to Empress Yisuo in power. Although their influence diminishes outside Vamora, Vamora is the largest producer of Beauty Houttuynia in the Kingdom of Gospel. In the Organization Ranking of various cities, Vamora consistently ranks near the top, and its annual city GDP has never fallen out of the top five!

If the six families of Vamora were separated, each family’s GDP would far exceed that of ordinary Second-tier Cities, and they could even compete with First-tier Cities! Because the resources of the heraldry families are allocated uniformly, the patriarch can freely mobilize the entire clan’s production resources, effectively meaning ‘one is all, and all is one’!

Therefore, the patriarchs in front of Banjeet were not just patriarchs; they were practically the embodiment of their families, the human representation of their cities, carrying the weight of millions of clansmen in their every move. This is not just a metaphor—they truly have the ability to convert clan resources into power—

Whoosh—

With the sound of pages flipping, five Gospel Books appeared before the patriarchs. For someone from a small household like Annan, the Gospel Book is a high-end, conservative information platform, but in front of the heraldry patriarchs, whose Gospel points are measured in millions, the Gospel Book’s openness is beyond ordinary people’s imagination.

Sanctuary!

Two Sanctuaries instantly unfolded to protect the Red Hat members. Although no actual attack was visible, anyone seeing the dense ripples of rain on the Sanctuary barrier would know that sorcerers are no match for the Gospel. Money talks indeed.

Cleos’s face turned extremely grim, tears welling up at the corners of her eyes as she bit her lip in frustration: “Leite, it looks like we’re going to fail this time...”

“We cannot fail.”

Leite also summoned his Gospel Book: “I reiterate, our mission is solely to capture the Empire fugitive Ashe Heath. We have no intention of offending Vamora. Once we capture Ashe Heath, we will leave immediately. The white mist is not our doing. We will apologize to the Vamora Red Hats for any procedural violations afterward... No, I am deeply sorry. Esteemed patriarchs, I beg your forgiveness for our rashness.”

“Patriarch Qenna, I am Annan’s fiancé. I will join Senhaeser in the future!” Ashe buried his face in her chest, avoiding eye contact with the female patriarch. “Please save me!”

He wasn’t yet skilled at lying with a straight face. His expressions and demeanor would only give him away, so he had to rely on his body language to strengthen his plea.

Igor, lying on the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes full of shock. He didn’t dare to breathe too loudly, fearing he would disrupt Ashe’s performance.

This was definitely a risky move. They still hadn’t fully deciphered the complex relationship between this mother and daughter. If they got it wrong, Ashe’s actions would only provoke Qenna’s ire!

The air was completely silent. Everyone was waiting for the response of the Senhaeser patriarch.

“You say you are Annan’s fiancé?”

Was she doubtful? Did she think he was lying? Did they get the code wrong?

However, at this point, Ashe could only press on: “Yes... Do you disapprove?”

“No, I highly approve. In fact, this is wonderful news.”

Ashe’s chin was lifted, forcing him to meet the gaze of the Senhaeser patriarch. Qenna’s golden eyes were full of amusement and expectation, reminding Ashe of a half-satiated fox eyeing its next prey.

“However, from now on, you should call me Sister Qenna.”

Ashe blinked. “...Sister Qenna?”

“Good boy.” Qenna noticed a drop of blood on Ashe’s left cheek and pointed to her own face. “You have blood.”

Ashe instinctively reached for his right cheek. Qenna shook her head and leaned in closer.

Just when Ashe thought Qenna was going to wipe the blood off for him, he felt a slick tongue lick his face.

A shiver ran down his spine, and his body nearly went limp in Qenna’s arms as she gently held him.

Igor, watching their interaction clearly from the side, found this scene more disturbing than the pain of his broken ribs. It was shaking the Con Artist’s Heart Wall to its core.

Ashe, what kind of password did you crack?

Qenna’s attitude towards you doesn’t resemble how one would treat a daughter’s partner at all!

Though I’m from the Blood Moon, I’ve seen plenty of family dramas here, and I’ve never seen anything like this!

This is too bizarre. I need to take another look.
