At Grove Street in the South City District.

Perched on a tower hundreds of meters away, Leonard Churchill gazed at the towering Hunter’s Association building in the distance, a permanent look of perplexity in his eyes.

The auction was scheduled to start at seven in the evening.

However, having deciphered the secret message ‘stick to the plan’ in the silver mirror early that morning, he’d come here early to survey the area.

It was now only five in the afternoon.

It was evident that plenty of people in Sinless City had their eyes on the

auction.

With just a cursory glance, Leonard spotted many others holding binoculars in the surrounding buildings, indicating he wasn’t the only one observing.

He had no intention of going to the auction in person.

If anything went wrong, it wouldn’t be a good place to be in.

“The Silver Moon Sect guys surely want the goods auctioned, but how are they

planning to act…”

Leonard simply couldn’t figure it out.

Ever since he saw the “moon” on the product list, he was certain those people would show up.

But there seemed to be just a handful of influential people in the Silver Moon

Sect.

Although they might have some unusual tactics, revealing themselves at an auction heavily laden with traps would lead to their downfall in minutes.

This is what Leonard pondered.

There were typically two choices for theft.

Either go for brute strength or cunning strategy.

However, no matter how powerful the individual, the more exposed the intelligence, the easier it would be to find countermeasures.

Like that Doctor previously, who had the secret skill “Cellular Activity Boiling,” guaranteeing he couldn’t die among his peers. But if someone was prepared in advance, using “Banned Therapy” could severely inhibit his abilities.contemporary romance

Now, many core members from the Silver Moon Sect have topped the selection list, with quite detailed intel on them.

Theoretically speaking, they’ve got no hope if they try to fight with brute strength.

And…

If it’s about devising cunning tactics…

Only three possibilities come to mind for those aiming for the batch of goods – during transport, during the auction, or after the auction.

The first and the third options seem more likely.

Since the Golden Oak Security Company organised this auction, the goods would be heavily guarded during transport. Maybe there’s a chance if there’s an insider colluding?

But the higher-ups at Golden Oak aren’t fools. After getting rid of the potential insider, they probably wouldn’t tap into the same information which already exposed too much about the tricks they could use.

As for the third option…

If they wait until the auction is over… Even ignoring actual buyers, those

willing to bid definitely aren’t weaklings.

Once the goods are spread out, it’s unlikely they’ll get their way.

But this was something Leonard couldn’t figure out, even with his furrowed brows.

His intuition was telling him that nobody seemed to be on the right trackyet.

“If I can think of it, everyone else can as well. So, logically, there’s no opportunity to exploit. If the guys from the Silver Moon Sect really want to pull this off, they’d have to break the deadlock with an inconceivable method’…sometimes unexpected-insider, sewer system, hidden person, secret skill, relic, dynamite?”

Atop the tower, as Leonard watched the hands on his pocket watch creeping slowly, his puzzlement didn’t lessen.

If he were the planner itself, using the available resources, he couldn’t even get a i°/o success rate.

But this was the Extraordinary World, who knew what kind of outlandish thing might pop out.

If he couldn’t anticipate the opponent’s plan, then he should abandon his idea

to stir up trouble.

Suddenly, Leonard had a disregarded thought: “Would those guys possibly

resort to a violent attack?”

When it comes to possibilities that nobody would expect…

Only such barbaric acts come to mind.

But this is Sinless City. How could those small fries from the Silver Moon Sect dare to launch such a violent attack?

On the other hand, inside a residential house…

Reuel Bible and his two assistants too were peering at the distant auction area through a telescope.

Their work as field agents for X Bureau consisted of containing high pollution uncontrolled relics and disaster objects, as well as dealing with the Old Days Sect that polluted human faith.

Coming to Sinless City, their primary target was the Silver Moon Sect.

His two young assistants had been observing from the window for quite some time.

Like Leonard, they couldn’t come up with a viable strategic approach.

Instead, while the two assistants had worried expressions, Reuel, the backbone of the team, was leisurely lying down and sipping a drink.

Ada asked again, still puzzled: “Captain, we’ve found not a single abnormality. Will those guys from the Silver Moon Sect really show up?” Mushroomhead earnestly reported: “I’ve spotted twenty-one covert sentries in the neighborhood, but judging from their actions, they don’t seem to be Silver Moon Sect members.”

He turned to their seemingly sleeping team captain on the bed and added: ■■Captain, the auction is about to start soon. If the Old Days followers are going to appear, they will be entering the venue soon. Shouldn’t we get inside to have a look?”

But Reuel, with a merrily slacking-off expression, lazily retorted: “Why would we go inside? What if something really happens and we somehow end up in the middle of it all, taking blows from all directions?”

Mushroomhead:”…”

Ada:”…”

Upon hearing this, both assistants rolled their eyes in unison.

The bureau’s ace agent, all he ever talks about is slacking off… his work attitude is not proactive at all.

As if Reuel didn’t notice the resentful glances of his assistants, he explained: ■■It’s not us who should be worried right now. We can just sit back and enjoy the show.”

Ada said: “But… if we don’t make some preparations and something unexpected happens…”

Reuel chucked and retorted: “So, what preparations have you made?”

Upon hearing this, both assistants fell instantly silent.

Even after contemplating for three days, they still couldn’t figure out a feasible plan for the Silver Moon Sect..
