However, what was unexpected was that Noah Wright did not reach for the Holy Grail immediately.
Instead, he squatted there.
Like a fascinated boy watching ants move house, he observed the silver-rune cup closely.
…
Time seemed to stand still.
Noah Wright stared unblinkingly at the cup.
And the others stared at him.
“This guy…”
Leonard Churchill realized something upon seeing this.
He had been speculating about Noah Wright’s identity before.
To others, he was just a Field Agent sent by the X Bureau for redemption.
That’s what Leonard Churchill thought previously.
However, Noah Wright also knew Camilla.
That was very subtle.
If nothing else, Camilla’s identity was now one of the “Thirteen Masked Knights.”
Then, it wouldn’t be far-fetched for Noah Wright to be a member of the Thirteen Knights too.
This legendary organization is very mysterious to the outside world, but one thing for sure is that every member inside is a top-tier powerhouse or a supreme genius that has merged with the 52 Epic Origin Cards.
Is Noah Wright the latter?
Thinking this way, his ability to see through the Gravity Domain seemingly made sense.
Realizing this, Leonard Churchill murmured to himself, “Tsk tsk… so he’s really a person from that organization.”
Before, he wasn’t sure.
After all, Noah Wright was Reuel Bible’s lackey, and even if the people of the Thirteen Knights were bold and wild, they were still an assassin organization wanted by the Federal Government.
It doesn’t seem like they would go so far as to infiltrate an ace agent of the X Bureau.
Now looking at it, hmm, it’s even more outrageous than speculated.
I was wrong after all.
However, before he could think further, Noah Wright suddenly reached out his hand as if he wanted to pick up the Holy Grail.
Seeing this, Leonard Churchill was not alarmed.
But the expressions of the other three changed drastically.
Prince Sane and Red Dragon Yuri were too far away to do anything despite their urgency.
But just as the Holy Grail was within reach, Hunchbacked Old Cook suddenly exploded into action.
Before everyone’s eyes, he charged forward vehemently.
But it was these last few steps where the Gravity Domain had become so terrifying that it was a matter of life and death.
Indeed, no sooner had the Old Cook launched forward than his body suddenly shriveled like an empty can, collapsing under the pressure.
He was ripped into pieces within the twisting space.
However, just when everyone thought he was a goner, a black liquid sprayed out from the bulge on his back as if from an exploded abscess.
An even more horrifying scene occurred.
From the burst hump, a green-skinned baby burst out and headed straight for the Holy Grail.
“So that’s how it is!”
Upon seeing this, Leonard Churchill let out a sharp cry, finally understanding why the Hunchbacked Old Cook was unkillable.
This deathly ghostly baby was his true body!
Since the Old Cook had exposed his true form, he was naturally determined to secure the Holy Grail.
He reached for the Holy Grail faster than Noah Wright did, stretching out a small green hand towards it.
But at the same time, another twist occurred!
The moment Old Cook touched the Holy Grail, it was as if he had touched something terrifying; his expression changed drastically, and he let out a chilling scream, “Ah…”
He withdrew his hand like lightning, but it was already charred.
Almost at the same moment, the once dimly shining silver Holy Grail burst forth with dazzling white light.
It was like a flash bomb had gone off, lighting up the vast cave.
Seeing the retreating Old Cook, Leonard Churchill and the others breathed a sigh of relief; at least it hadn’t fallen into his hands, which was the good news.
The only one nonchalant beside the Holy Grail was Noah Wright, who even pursed his lips, his expression as if to say: See, I told you it was dangerous, why else didn’t I take it?
With that touch, everyone immediately realized that the Holy Grail was not so easy to claim.
However, because someone touched the Holy Grail, the three men and one Demon suddenly felt the pressure on their bodies abruptly lift.
The Godfall Domain had disappeared!
The moment that terrifying pressure vanished, Leonard Churchill instantly felt a surge of murderous intent strike at his back.
With the Domain’s constraints gone, the most powerful, Red Dragon Yuri, was the first to strike!
With a breath of dragon fire, a black hellish flame came forth.
Being two tiers lower, Leonard Churchill couldn’t avoid it in time and was blown away by the blast of heat.
Meanwhile, not far ahead, Prince Sane disregarded everything and charged straight for the Holy Grail.
Only he knew why others couldn’t touch this Holy Grail!
For the Holy Grail of Kingship within the Xismark Holy Grail was imbued with Divine Power and the law of kingship!
The white light just now was the fire of the law of kingship.
Such a high-level Holy Artifact could not be defiled by mere mortals.
Only his Royal Family bloodline could touch it without being harmed by the law!
However, just as Sane was brimming with confidence, the moisture near Noah Wright quickly condensed into frost, and a figure surprisingly materialized from an elemental state.
The fully elemental figure reached for the Holy Grail before anyone else.
Prince Sane’s eyes narrowed, and he sneered inwardly, “Looking for death!”
This Holy Grail was not meant for just anyone’s touch!
Yet before his scornful thoughts could surface, they turned into shock.
He watched, wide-eyed, as the slender hand actually grabbed the Holy Grail and lifted it up.
On seeing this, Sane’s expression changed drastically, “How is this possible! Who exactly is she?!”
He could not fathom why someone else could defy the law of kingship and take the Holy Grail!
However, Leonard Churchill, who was blown away by the dragon’s breath, immediately recognized the Holy Light as a kind of high-level Law’s flame, and recalling what Noah Wright had said before, he had no difficulty guessing that it was the law of kingship.
He also instantly deduced that the necessary condition to claim the Holy Grail likely had something to do with kingship.
And the Elemental Transformation spell, he had seen it before, it was Camilla’s ability after Demonic Solution.
He realized, “So the White Queen in the sequence can disregard the law of kingship…”
