Chapter 767 – The Cat Experiment

Chapter 767 – Cat Experiment
I didn’t expect Nathan to bring the white porcelain cat directly to the trading site.

“You trust me that much?” Saul was surprised on his face.

“In fact, I thought you would follow me last time and directly snatch it away. But not only did you not snatch it, but you’re also seriously helping me think of a remodeling plan. So I thought I’d just give it to you directly to show my sincerity.”

Sol wasn’t moved, “I was merely worried that a hard robbery would be ineffective. After all, there are often invisible rules in the wizarding world that cannot be detected.”

His fingers tapped twice on the desktop and suddenly asked, “Do you have another one of this cat’s retribution ……? Or more?”

Nathan was truly frozen, and he stumbled, “I, I, actually …… yes, I have more, but, but this is not the more the better. Good fortune often comes with misfortune.”

Saul took a sip of the floral wine on the table and, without further questioning, raised his hand and with a wave of his hand, he stowed the white porcelain cat that Nathan had brought with him into the storage.

When Nathan saw this scene, the pupils of his eyes contracted slightly, and the teeth hidden by his lips opened a small slit, but in the end, he still clenched his teeth tightly and did not speak.

“Then let’s start now.” Saul had no intention of going back on his word and threw the remodeling plan he had casually made in the past two days onto the table in front of Nathan, “You take a good look at it first. If you really can’t understand it, come back and ask me again, keep thinking.”

After saying that, Saul got up and left the box.

After getting the white porcelain cat, Saul went straight back to the inn.

He tested the radiation on it with several instruments and found that there was almost nothing.

It was the same as what he had sensed through his spiritual power.

Saul was then about to pet the kitten’s head as Nathan had informed him.

But Herman in the diary said.

[Master, it’s better to let me do it. Your rank is too high, and this kitten won’t necessarily affect your luck].

Sol thought about it and was right.

This kitten had influenced the airship in the first place, indirectly helping Trader Mike win him.

But Saul himself was not affected in any way.

If he hadn’t been keeping an eye on the white porcelain cat, I’m afraid he wouldn’t even have been able to discover its trickery tactics.

Saul pulled Herman out of the diary and carried over the orange cat Kate, who was watching from the side.

“Herman is first-order strength, but he’s a spirit body and bound to the diary, so he may not be able to gauge the principles of the white porcelain cat’s operation. So in a moment Kate, you try it as well.”

Kate’s whiskers curled up as he dawdled his way over to the white porcelain cat and rubbed his tail against the white porcelain cat’s body.

Nothing happened.

“Touch the head.”

“Actually, I’m not in a very stable state. This isn’t my real body, after all.”

“But you’re about to be permanently bound to it. Be a good boy, touch your head, and when you’re done, I’ll have someone build you a new body.”

It was the first time Kate had heard Saul talk about his physical condition.

He couldn’t wait to ask, “Really? You can really help me change my body back?”

“I have rich experience in extracting souls and creating containers, but you can’t let me help you for nothing. You have to cooperate with me in recording all the experimental data on your body.”

“No problem!”

With the basic deal struck, Kate proactively stepped forward and petted the white porcelain kitten’s head.

Saul stayed on the sidelines, keeping an eye on the white porcelain kitten’s movements.

This time, Saul finally once again sensed the strange fluctuation he had felt on the airship.

“What do you feel?” Saul asked the cat in a hurry.

“It feels like having a mouthful of water in my mouth and wanting to squirt it out.”

Saul nodded and raised his hand to take out the Death Witch Diary, “Hold it in, don’t spit it out.” The diary began to gather information about the surrounding area, a straight line was projected onto the diary from the outside world and turned into readable information.

During this examination, Saul finally found a very hidden message among the complicated lines of information.

“There is a curved wavy line on Kate. This line is currently carefully avoiding other straight lines, and with the amount of information already around it, it can easily be obscured, giving the false impression that there is nothing out of the ordinary at all.”

Saul then created a random dice from materials around him and asked both Kate and Herman to compare their luck.

At the same time, he asked Kate to spit out the “water in her mouth”.

After playing a dozen times, Kate was the winner.

During this time, Saul had been holding the diary, watching Kate’s state, and then he saw that the hidden wavy line affected the dice.

Again, because the force was so small and so fast, Saul had narrowly missed its influence.

“It can be stopped.”

Feeling a change in the power on the white porcelain cat, Saul immediately told Kate to stop the dice rolling game.

He then brought the wooden basin from the inn and created some fresh water to pour in.

“Would you like some water?”

Kate reluctantly came over, “Lord Saul, even though I’m in this state, I still like to drink from a cup.”

“Washing your hands is also fine.” Saul just wanted to let Kate try touching water.

Nathan said that the white porcelain cat brought not only luck, but also misfortune.

Paul, a third-degree apprentice on the airboat, cautions him that everyone who touches the white porcelain cat drowns.

Plus Krum, who inexplicably drowned in a frozen house.

Saul concludes that when the power of the White Porcelain Cat meets water it creates a new witchcraft reaction.

So he puts Cat in direct contact with the water source.

Although Kate had heard about the problem of not being able to go near water, he himself was a second-ranked sorcerer and was not aware of Krum’s death, so he did not have any resistance to water. Knowing that Saul was going to conduct an experiment, he ran to the wooden basin and jumped right in.

However, the seemingly coarse bottom of the wooden basin was unusually slippery, and after the orange cat jumped in, he actually slipped and fell directly flat on his back in the water, and his mouth and nose were not covered by water.

What’s even more bizarre is that the water, as if it had an autonomous consciousness, actively flowed towards Kate’s mouth and lungs, completely ignoring the effects of gravity.

“Pop!”

Saul slapped his palm on the edge of the wooden basin.

The wooden basin didn’t tip over, but the water in the basin suddenly regained its gravity and flowed back to the bottom of the basin with a few clatters.

And at that moment, Kate also finally jumped out of the basin, shaking the water-dampened fur on her body.

“There’s something wrong with this water, I’m a second-ranked sorcerer, and I can’t really catch my breath in there.”

“Then can you still cast sorcery?” Sol asked him.

“I can, it’s just that I felt at the time that there was no need for such a small amount of water ……”

Saul nodded, “So despite the drowning, you still have the power to save yourself. That’s a bit strange. If you had the power to save yourself, then why did the third-ranked sorcerer Krum drown?”

Kate: “? What did you say?”

Saul then told Kate about his dealings with Ophelia at the White Glazed Castle, “Since both drowned inexplicably, I linked the two together for the time being. Today in you I see again the wavy line that avoids all straight lines. It seems the white porcelain cat and Krum’s death are really connected.”

Before Saul could finish, he saw pearl-sized tears squeezing out of the corners of the orange cat’s eyes.

“Ooohhhh, even a third-ranked sorcerer will die, and you’re still experimenting on me?”
