Chapter 1659 1654: Because I Don't Like Daytime
"Uh..." Su Chen rubbed his throbbing head and sat up.The scene before his eyes was baffling.
Right now he was in an ancient-style palace.
The lavish decorations were one thing.
Beside him stood a row of maids.
"Did I just transmigrate?" The thought popped into Su Chen's head on its own.
Su Chen waking up made the maid watching over him snap back to her senses.
One of them quickly left the palace...
A moment later, Harlow appeared in Su Chen's line of sight.
"You're awake."
There was no smile on Harlow's face; he just asked calmly.
"Why am I here?" Su Chen had a lot of questions in his head.
His memory was still stuck back in the Secret Vault.
He really couldn't remember what had happened after that.
All of a sudden, as if he remembered something, he hurriedly reached out to grab around.
But he grabbed at nothing. The Enforcer Armor was gone?!
Seeing Su Chen's face change drastically, Harlow expressionlessly clapped his hands. "Pa pa..."
A maid came over from the side carrying a tray.
On the tray lay the very Ancient Weapon Su Chen had chosen from the Secret Vault: the "Saint Armor."
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Chen took the armor and put it on.
The Saint Armor looked thin and light, yet it weighed over a thousand jin; a normal person simply couldn't bear its weight.
But with Su Chen's freakish physique, he easily donned it without the slightest difficulty.
"Death God, you entered our clan's Secret Vault to choose two Ancient Weapons. Why is there only this one?" Harlow asked coldly.
"Didn't I take two..."
Su Chen answered on instinct.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, he himself froze.
Right, didn't he take two?
Besides this armor, there should be one more.
But he couldn't clearly recall it.
Right now he was practically empty-handed; even the armor had just been returned by Harlow.
"The Secret Vault Guardian said you took two things from the Secret Vault. What's the other one?" A sharp gleam flashed in Harlow's eyes.
"Uh..." Su Chen tried hard to recall what had happened back then.
The number of weapons in the Secret Vault far exceeded his imagination; he hadn't expected the Nopheler Family to have such deep foundations.
Originally, when he'd asked for twenty Ancient Weapons, he'd just been joking, but who would have thought the Nopheler Family actually had the potential to bring that many out.
Never mind anything else—Su Chen had really been scared.
Over sixty Ancient Weapons—once they surfaced, they'd probably stir up a bloody storm, right?
"I think it was a hand?" From his blurry memories, Su Chen roughly recalled a few things.
Among all those dust-covered weapons, that severed hand had been so conspicuous.
If it hadn't been sitting on the weapon rack, Su Chen would never have had that flash of inspiration to reach out and take it.
Harlow and the others knew nothing about the hand.
Because all they'd seen was Su Chen's arm shrouded in a mass of black fog.
The evil, dark power on it would make even Bloodline members' livers tremble.
They were curious, but they didn't dare get close at all.
That day, only after Su Chen's screams finally stopped and they were sure there was no more danger did he and Karloki dare bring Su Chen back.
The reason Karloki hadn't shown up now wasn't without cause either.
On the way back, Karloki, out of curiosity about Su Chen's left hand, had been injured by the terrifying power of Su Chen's left hand.
His life wasn't in danger, but it'd be hard for him to recklessly use force again in the short term.
"A severed hand?"
Hearing Su Chen's description, Harlow's mind blanked for a moment.
The Nopheler Family's Secret Vault had a long heritage; even Harlow himself had no idea how many good things were in there.
But hearing Su Chen's description, Harlow just looked confused.
A "severed hand" among the Ancient Weapons?
He had no such memory.
And if it was a severed hand, how did it turn into black fog...
Harlow fell silent, as if pondering Su Chen's words.
After answering Harlow's question, Su Chen also moved his hands and feet a bit.
Roughly speaking, there didn't seem to be any problem.
It was just that his body felt strangely weak, like he'd burned through a lot.
A wave of powerlessness rose up unbidden.
"How long was I unconscious?"
After a long while, Su Chen spoke, breaking Harlow's train of thought.
Harlow shook his head and simply gave up on digging deeper into this.
No matter how many benefits Su Chen had actually gotten in the Secret Vault, things were what they were; it was impossible to make Su Chen cough them up.
Since that was the case, why trouble himself?
Besides, now that Su Chen had gotten benefits, his relationship with the Nopheler Family wasn't exactly bad.
At least for now, he was still a Guest Elder of the Nopheler Family.
The stronger he was, the greater the help to the Nopheler Family, no?
All the more so because he didn't think Su Chen would harbor any disrespect toward the Nopheler Family.
Outside the Secret Vault, more than twenty ancestors lay sleeping—was there a single one weaker than Karloki?
And that owl stone statue's strength—hadn't Su Chen experienced it firsthand?
After feeling the Nopheler Family's terrifying heritage, as long as Su Chen had a shred of sense, there was no way he'd do anything that went against the Nopheler Family's interests.
Besides, there was no irreconcilable conflict of interest between Su Chen and the Nopheler Family yet!
"It's already been eight days," Harlow said.
"Eight days?!" Su Chen did the math in his head.
Not good—tonight was the full-moon night!
A jolt ran through Su Chen's heart; he'd almost forgotten something!
Rescuing Liang Bing!
His purpose in coming to Europe this time, aside from helping Fraser, had also been to rescue Liang Bing, and while he was at it, help that girl he'd only met once settle a little issue.
But the main thing was still to save Liang Bing.
"Moyland Castle" wasn't within the borders of The Sun Never Sets Empire.
Originally, Su Chen had plenty of time; he'd planned to head to Deutschland to plan and prepare right after obtaining the Ancient Weapon from the Nopheler Family.
But who could have expected accidents back to back—after he came out of the Nopheler Family's Secret Vault, he'd fallen into a coma.
And had been out for eight days.
Today was exactly the full-moon night!
He hurriedly got out of bed and headed outside the palace.
Pitch black?!
Had night already fallen?!
"What time is it now?" Su Chen asked anxiously.
"A little after twelve noon," Harlow said leisurely.
"Noon? Then why is it so dark outside?"
"Because I don't like daytime."
Su Chen: "..."
...
Going from The Sun Never Sets Empire to Deutschland wasn't far; even if he set out a bit later, Su Chen should still make it in time for "Moyland Castle's" "dinner time."
Even though his body still felt a bit weak.
But the sooner the better.
What Su Chen lacked right now was time.
"Do you still remember what I told you before?"
"You mean 'Moyland Castle'?" Harlow's expression also shifted slightly, turning serious.
