Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 899: Chapter 280 Flying Dragon Attacks the City_2

This ability sounds absolutely absurd.

Creating life?

Isn’t that a divine technique only legendary gods are said to be capable of?

Leonard Churchill looked over with an utterly bizarre expression in his eyes.

But Noah Wright just smiled and shook his head, as if he guessed Leonard’s thoughts and corrected him, “It’s not as exaggerated as you think. It’s just a kind of ‘endowment of soul’ ability. My Professional Sequence is the arts pathway [Diamond 7·Bard]’s sixth-tier profession [Death Playwright]. Part of my ability involves writing a good script and then endowing the characters in the script with souls…”

“…”

Upon hearing this, Leonard’s expression froze.

He didn’t expect the Pursuer of Light to reveal his abilities like this.

This was a top-secret that even the best information merchants didn’t have.

It’s one of the “Top Ten Unsolved Mysteries of Card Master Professions” in the Federation legends!

But astonishment aside, this ability sounded incredibly far-fetched.

He didn’t hide his confusion and asked, “Can the characters in a story have souls too?”

“Yes.”

Noah Wright smiled slightly, seemingly anticipating such a reaction, “If the logic of a story in a book is completely self-consistent, the laws are perfect, the rules reasonable… then what difference does it make from the real world? Since it’s the real world, why can’t the characters in the story have souls?”

“!!!”

Listening, it was as if Leonard’s mind had been struck by a sledgehammer, plunging him into deep thought about his understanding of the world.

Right, if the logic of a novel’s world was genuinely perfect and self-consistent, then what was the difference from the real world?

The only difference is… dimensionality?

In an instant, Leonard felt as if he had seen the stars in the summer night sky.

Although they were out of reach, he saw the light and shadows cast from the depths of the universe.

Noah Wright also knew that his explanation might be a bit difficult to understand, so he added, “Hmm… if I put it another way, maybe it won’t be so hard to understand.”

After thinking for a moment, he gave an example, “Like… alternate dimensions.”

“Ah?”

At these words, Leonard suddenly looked at him.

In that moment, he felt as if he could almost understand what alternate dimensions truly were.

A completely logical self-consistent script world created by high-latitude divine beings?

Hiss…

Are this guy’s abilities that outrageous?

…

The more Leonard understood about Noah Wright’s abilities, the less clear his cognition seemed to become after his questions were answered.

Rather, it all seemed more mystical.

No!

Anyone would drop their jaw upon hearing this.

Across from him was a man with the Mushroomhead card, who now wore a smile of indifference, “So ‘Noah Wright’ is my projection in the script world. I materialized it in reality using a unique relic and some methods. It’s not wrong to think of it as a ‘personality split’ of mine.”

As he spoke, he looked at Leonard and added a thought-provoking statement, “I think you might be able to understand what I mean better than others.”

“…”

Of course, Leonard could understand.

It was like the myriad of personalities in his own heart, split off, and then individually becoming a “Leonard Churchill.”

But those personalities were all inside his mind.

And Noah Wright had truly materialized the “Noah Wright” from the script into the real world.

No matter how you thought about it, it seemed completely preposterous.

That meant this Mushroomhead could not only materialize one “Noah Wright” but also countless characters from the scripts.

No wonder he had resurrected several times before.

He was the playwright, who could simply write a few lines, and the characters in the script were resurrected.

“So that’s how it is…”

Leonard couldn’t help but marvel to himself instinctively.

Suddenly, he felt as though he had caught on to something.

The Clown Shadow Trickery that he had been contemplating for several days without any progress suddenly seemed to have a thread he could follow.

…

“But… why is this guy telling me all this in such detail?”

Leonard suddenly felt confused.

This guy had revealed all about his abilities.

This was no longer mere idle chat.

It seemed like he intentionally told him about the Pursuer of Light’s abilities.

Noah Wright looked at Leonard’s shocked expression and modestly smiled again, saying, “My abilities are not as mysterious as they seem. It all comes down to ‘predictive analysis.’ Predicting the trends of everything in the world, making some interventions…”

“…”

Leonard listened to his words.

But he did not believe for one second that these abilities were “not mysterious.”

He did not continue to ask.

But after a moment of silence, Noah Wright delved further into the topic.

He asked a question that would startle anyone, “‘I am the world’ is one of the Fifty-two Demon God Forbidden Techniques and also my domain. Are you interested in learning about it?”

His tone was so calm, as if he had mentioned an inconsequential spell.

Not one of the top secrets of the Card Master Civilization.

“…”

Leonard’s eyes twitched involuntarily.

He felt as though a gold brick had struck his head, leaving him dazed.

But certain puzzles became clearer.

Hearing this, he vaguely guessed the other’s intention.

After a moment, Leonard responded, “Of course.”

Seeing someone willing to listen, a trace of imperceptible relief crossed the depths of Noah Wright’s eyes.

“Then it starts with the concept of ‘predictive analysis’…”

He raised his eyebrow and looked at Leonard, slowly stating, “We can view the current state of the universe as the result of its past and the cause for its future. If we have enough intelligence and understanding to confirm the current state and surroundings of a certain ‘entity,’ then we can analyze these data. Its developmental pattern will inevitably adhere to certain formulas, that is, ‘universal rules.’ Extending these deductions… theoretically, nothing would be ambiguous, and the future, like the past, would appear before me…”
