Chapter 98

Author: Lord Leaf
Charlie felt completely helpless at this time. Jacob had just broken the Yuhuchun vase in the morning, and yet, as soon as he had stepped out of the house, the old man had actually taken advantage of his absence to sneak out and explore Antique Street again.

That was just so typical of him. He would never learn from his mistakes.

Jacob laughed as he asked them in a mysterious manner, “I meant that these celadon cups are worth more than half a million dollars! Why don’t you guess how much I bought them for?”

Claire hesitated for a moment before replying, “Three hundred thousand dollars?”

“No! Guess again!” Jacob replied as he waved his hand.

“Two hundred thousand dollars?”

“That’s not right either!”

Charlie glanced at the pair of celadon cups in his father-in-law’s hand and he instantly knew that the cups were fake and only worth a few hundred dollars.

Just then, Jacob smiled as he exclaimed excitedly, “Haha! I bought it for only three hundred dollars! Isn’t that amazing?”

    Charlie grinned as it was exactly as he had thought. "I knew you'd have something to do with that campus… By the way, which year were you studying there?"Vera thought about it for a long while and murmured uncertainly, "It's been quite a while, so I don't really remember… But the first time I was there, I left North America after the Civil War broke out."Pausing, she then added gingerly, "So, probably 1854? A year around that."Charlie cleared his throat, pursing his lips awkwardly. "Well, I knew you would have been there, but definitely not that long ago…"Vera laughed. "You may think that sounds ancient, but I was already two hundred by then. It was also around that time that the States started several campuses, and I enrolled in a couple since I was feeling bored."Naturally, I didn't dare to stay too long since my face never once changed—I would finish the syllabus at top speed and move on to the next campus. It was more or less a form of pastime while I was still on the run

    Vera shook her head. "No, I actually studied archaeology…""Archaeology?" Merlin chuckled before saying earnestly, "Ms. Lavor, I really think you should study criminology at UCI. Their criminology department is the best Stateside, and I think you have a flair for it."Somehow, Vera smiled at Merlin's mention of academic majors. "You flatter me, Captain Lammy, but I'd really rather not deal with criminals and their shady nature day in day out—archaeology is the simpler life.""Well, it's a shame you don't want to be a cop," Merlin replied. “We're always lacking real talent like you."Still, Merlin understood that Vera was as mysterious as she was important, and she was definitely not one to be swayed by mere words.Not prying on the issue, he quickly said, "Anyway, Ms. Lavor's idea should be reliable enough. I'll arrange for the technicians to try it, and it'd work for global detective work too if it takes off."That said, it would need unparalleled volumes of processing power and

    Aside from Fleur, the Three Elders were about the only people in the Qing Eliminating Society who posed a threat to Charlie.However, he now had a great advantage as their faces had been identified. While he wouldn’t attack them outright, he could at least give them a wide berth.Vera felt relieved for Charlie, too. With the AI ​​module, Earthnet, and the facial data of Fleur, as well as the three elders, Charlie was basically safe from harm.After running from Fleur for over three hundred years, her impulse for vengeance had long since faded. So, if it were up to her, she would have rather Charlie stayed well away from Fleur so that she wouldn’t have to worry about him getting hurt.She had also grown to become codependent toward Charlie after getting to know him and spending time with him. Not only had they saved each other's lives, but this feeling of absolute trust with no secrets between them was something she hadn't experienced in centuries. The more she felt this way, th

    Vera carefully examined the tree before turning to Charlie, "Look! The leaves of the kombuc are so perfect, they look just like those fake plants sold in shopping malls. Each leaf is flawless, showing no hint of yellowing or curling."Charlie nodded, impressed. "If it's not affected by the winter cold, then I'm sure the scorching heat of summer won't be a problem for it, let alone pests. I was worried that it'd have trouble blooming in unfamiliar places, but I guess I was wrong."Vera nodded. "By next spring, it will be even more lush, and the leaves will be denser."Charlie smiled and nodded again. "And when we harvest them, the aroma will be fantastic while it recharges Reiki. It's the perfect tea."Vera then remembered. "Why don't you do some research and see if the kombuc leaves can be a useful ingredient for refining pills? It's quite a unique plant as it generates natural Reiki, so it'd definitely work as an ingredient for pills instead of just brewing it like normal tea."C

    In his mind, Charlie did agree with Vera's theory, and he sighed, "The Four-Sided Treasure Tower must be trying to send me a message, but I'm not sure if it's meant for the entity's benefit or mine."Yes, it taught me the hand seals that generate Reiki, but the Reiki isn't just unusable—it devours the rest of my Reiki once it's charged. If there's any semblance of intention from the entity, then it's by using that hostile Reiki as a parasite to devour my Reiki, and that's going to be a serious problem in the future."Vera smiled, "No. You're of the Ascended Dragon Fate, and even luck seems to always side with you. It's not as risky as it sounds, and it may even present an opportunity in the future."After a slight pause, Vera continued, "I know your Reiki wasn't easily generated, but I still suggest trying the hand seals that the Four-Sided Treasure Tower taught you. What is it if not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, after all?"Charlie stayed silent for a while, but he eventually

    Naturally, that further proved Charlie's theory that the entity had something to do with the Four-sided Treasure Tower.Could it be the Buddhist technique of cultivating Reiki? Why else would there be so many complex hand seals?Still, Charlie was now wary—it was exactly because he had practiced the hand seals before that the entity had had the opportunity to take him for a ride.With that many more hand seals on those murals, wouldn't he end up making things worse for himself if he kept practicing those hand seals?With that in mind, Charlie withdrew his divine sense, intent on never visiting the Four-sided Treasure Tower again or using the hand seals it had taught.That way, he wouldn't get fooled again.Still, it soon occurred to him that while he had no idea what the hand seals were for or if it boded ill, he could return to the interior of the Four-sided Treasure Tower whenever he wanted.As such, he committed each hand seal to memory without delay, until each sequence was
