Leonard Churchill blended into the crowd and walked in, originally intending to find a corner to drink.

But as soon as he entered, he was immediately drawn to the arrest warrants on the bulletin board.

Leonard, an S-class fugitive worth several billion, had not shown his face for several months, and had fallen from the C position on the bounty list to the corner,

Replaced by some of the more popular new faces of late.

The bounties weren’t necessarily higher than his, but the crimes committed were no small matter.

With just a glance, Leonard spotted a familiar face among the rows of bounty orders worth over a billion.

A red stamp from X Bureau headquarters, a bounty of 500 million, S-class fugitive—Reuel Bible!

“Old Bible is wanted? By X Bureau headquarters?”

Seeing that big-bearded face, Leonard found it incredible.

He was very familiar with Reuel Bible and knew his character well.

Being a Field Agent wasn’t just his livelihood; that guy also felt a sense of belonging with the X Bureau.

But what was the situation now, to have this ace agent wanted?

Beneath the bounty orders, a line of small print listed the crimes: “S-class fugitive, on April 15th, stole important research materials from X Bureau and defected, murdering nineteen colleagues… On April 27th, appeared in Parrot Town of York County in the western Federation, after being discovered, committed a horrifying massacre, leaving not a single one of the three thousand commoners alive, a crime of extreme evil… Now urgently sought after, dead or alive! Distinguishing features below…”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

…

Reading this, Leonard grew more puzzled, “Massacre three thousand people?”

His first reaction was: Impossible!

With Reuel Bible’s character, he was definitely the most upright person Leonard thought he had ever met.

Although looking sloppy and unconventional, that guy was a bona fide Fifth Tier Card Master of the Order pathway.

Butchering commoners was something he absolutely wouldn’t do.

However, since it was written on the arrest warrant, such an incident must have indeed happened.

Leonard’s eyes shifted as he immediately thought, “Framed? Contaminated? Or some other reason…”

His thoughts turned to the last conversation he had with Reuel Bible.

His old friend was planning to investigate changes within the X Bureau’s high ranks.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the problem might lie there.

Leonard suddenly thought, “If it’s April 27th… that would be ten days ago. Counting the time, Old Bible might have already come to Sinless City?”

If you were to say where in the entire Federation was most suitable for fugitives to take refuge, it would definitely be Sinless City and the Old Continent.

Moreover, Leonard always felt that Old Bible defecting from the X Bureau was a…

Thinking this, he immediately turned and left the tavern, heading towards the Hunter’s Association.

…

Before long, Leonard left encrypted information at the Hunter’s Association for Reuel Bible.

After all, they were friends through life and death.

No matter what had happened to his old friend, he felt that he had to help in any way he could.

After posting the bounty, Leonard then returned to Old Gun Tavern.

This was the agreed meeting place.

If Reuel Bible was in Sinless City and needed help, he would definitely return.

After inquiring with the Information merchant for recent news, Leonard sat in a corner on the second floor of the tavern, eating the newly added dishes, and waited.

After advancing to Third Tier Giant Dragon Hunter, Leonard had acquired an “Gluttony” job entry.

His appetite was now as huge as a dragon’s, able to consume a large table of food when hungry and digest it rapidly.

Nutrients from the food were very important for his body now, and could also hasten recovery from injuries to some extent.

So Leonard just sat there, eating, while observing the people coming and going in the tavern.

Taverns were favorite haunts for all sorts of spies and information informants.

Leonard also noticed that there were quite a few conspicuous individuals in this tavern.

Not only did he observe from details in clothing and demeanor but also from “Air Perception”.

This was also an accompanying job ability from practicing the Fifty-two Demonic God Forbidden Techniques of “Gluttony”.

Before, Leonard was able to see uncontrollable Extraordinary Traits in dead people, and now, he could see the “Air” on the living.

As Senior Shepherd had said, all living beings have Air.

Even if Curse Power did not leak out, he could still see every person’s Air rising like flames flickering.

The strong had Air as vigorous as a bonfire.

The weak had Air as faint as candle flames.

Unless he encountered a master who was very good at controlling Air, the majority could be discerned at a glance.

With the perception and observation skills of a Werewolf, one could almost determine everything with certainty.

For example, the lady in the rabbit suit, Leonard thought she must be an Assassin-type Card Master; her Air Perception was chilly and sharp, and she also seemed gentle in manner and behavior;

Then there was the bearded merchant in the corner; his Air was robust, apparently a Second Tier Close Combat Card Master, with a scent of human blood on him, and cautious eyes, likely a freshly-arrived fugitive from out of town;

And there was that flat-cap dude mingling on the dance floor, his Air was erratic, almost certainly a professional thief…

Different people carried different kinds of Air.

It’s like a person’s face.

Having seen it once, even if they disguised themselves, Leonard could still recognize them to a degree.

This was a whole new experience.

It was like opening a new world of the senses, observing from a different perspective.

By carefully perceiving, he was also practicing the skill.

Before, when in the mines, there were not many living people to practice this method of perception.

Now that he had come out, the streets were full of people.

They were all wandering bundles of “Air”.

After practicing for a while, his proficiency in the skill panel rose swiftly,

And the efficiency of identification improved dramatically.

Watching the passersby whose secrets he had uncovered, Leonard couldn’t help admiring the magic of this ability: “Air Skill really is profound. No wonder before, whatever I thought, the old man could perceive it instantly; ‘Air Perception’ is really outrageous…”
