Chapter 270: Chapter 260 Prayers and Miracles!
Mr. Colin’s mind was continuously pondering, how exactly he could safely leave this place.
Turn and run?
No!
There was something nearby watching everything, it could be some mysterious presence, or perhaps a powerful Extraordinary Exponent.
He couldn’t make any overly abnormal moves.
He took a deep breath, and as usual, handed the case of money to the Lion clan’s steward, then he saw Colonel Abel.
He had thought Colonel Abel might have completely lost his mind, possibly even resorting to sudden assaults on others, but the situation was very unexpected.
Colin was shocked to find that Colonel Abel seemed much more mentally stable than before, with only one finger injured and bandaged.
He spoke and communicated like a normal person, very politely!
Even possibly, more amiable than he had been years before.
Could it be that his illness was cured?
No, deep down Colin negated that thought, because according to the scent he detected, it was very likely that mysterious forces had caused major interference…
So, Colonel Abel appearing in a better mental state might just be a facade…
He took a deep breath, feeling fear rising deep in his heart.
During their conversation, his expression slightly solemn, Colonel Abel suddenly smiled and said,
“What is it with you, Mr. Colin? You seem to have been pondering many things.”
Colin smiled slightly, his expression calm as he responded, “Colonel Abel, thank you for your concern. There really is nothing wrong, I just haven’t been sleeping well lately.”
“After all, every trip from Nasir Town to Fein City requires a long journey, it’s not a simple trip.”
“Hmm, I see.”
Colonel Abel nodded slightly, then suddenly reached out to grab Colin’s wrist, staring into his eyes for a long moment, then biting his finger and using the blood to start writing twisted characters on the wall:
“Mr. Colin, then please tell me, why has your heartbeat been so alarmingly fast since you entered the door? As if you could die at any moment?”
Colin’s heartbeat instantly climbed again, understanding that no matter how much he tried to mask his demeanor and tone, it was useless, because he couldn’t control his heartbeat!
Damn!
He had been targeted!
He merely attempted, and instantly knew that there was a huge gap in power between them, and he couldn’t escape with his own ability.
Therefore, Colin could only try to calm down as much as possible to glean more information from the other party.
Frowning, he stared at the man before him and said,
“You’re absolutely not Abel Leone, who are you? What are you doing here? You even attacked the regent of the Lion clan, aren’t you afraid of the church’s people?”
Colonel Abel revealed a smile full of cold sarcasm, then his bleeding finger continued to write.
“Why? I would indeed like to know one thing, why does every one of you expect to get information at the last moment?”
Colin froze, an even greater fear rising within him!
Then, he saw the words Colonel Abel continued to write: “But I’ve reached the limit of Extraordinary Exponents I can control, so let ‘Platinum’ manipulate you with Mental Magic.”
Obviously, the “Platinum” Mr. Brandy mentioned was that man with white hair and a black eye mask.
Colin glared, full of anger, but completely unable to resist!
The next moment, “Platinum” with the black eye mask and long hair walked out from the shadows.
“Platinum” bowed respectfully, and writing appeared on the paper.
“Mr. Brandy, my Mental Magic level is insufficient, and I may encounter problems with people of strong will…”
“But since you have given the command, I will give it a try.”
After tentatively exploring Colin’s mind through Mental Magic, he suddenly looked surprised, even unable to help exclaiming aloud!
“Hey, there is something interesting inside his mind! It turns out the Fischer family…”
“Ah ah ah ah!”
Colin roared, trying to resist and pray but gradually becoming groggy, unable to think properly.

After a day’s work at the newspaper office, Inna rode the carriage back home, cautiously entered a secret room within the villa, and began sorting through information useful to the Fischer family.
It took several hours before she finished organizing all the intelligence carefully.
And by morning, Inna would use the ability of “Daybreak” to deliver all that information to a young Daybreaker stationed outside Fein City.
The young Daybreaker would then be responsible for conveying the information to the Fischer family.
“Inna!”
She suddenly heard someone outside calling her loudly, pausing for a moment.
Her husband was still working outside and had not returned, Inna quickly saw her young son approaching, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
“Mommy, someone is calling you outside.”
“Mhm, go back to sleep, I’ll see what it’s about.”
