The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

As Gideon made his way to Phoenix Mountain, little did he know that Jagoan had already received a text message

from Zachary.

The message contained just one sentence, announcing the opening of a new store next month.

Jagoan wasted no time and immediately responded with an enthusiastic reply, using the secret code he and

Zachary had agreed upon.

The opening of a new store was code for fresh tombs to be plundered in the circle of grave robbers. They used this

method to communicate their objectives in a discreet manner, so as not to raise suspicion from individuals with

tender hearts who might misinterpret their cooperation as a harmless association.

As soon as Jagoan received the news, he knew that the Thunderstruck Wood had been sold, prompting him to call

Isaac right away.

Within ten minutes, Isaac sent several videos to Jagoan, showcasing the surveillance footage from the airport’s

arrival hall and near Zachary’s booth on Antique Street. It was in these videos that Jagoan laid eyes on Gideon for

the first time.

Despite his unimposing appearance, the man in his sixties emanated a certain amiability that made it difficult for

anyone to perceive him as threatening, even in a bustling environment.

Jagoan took note of Gideon’s appearance and quietly mused to himself, “I reckon this man must be one of the four

Marshals of the Warriors Den. He’s the one who purchased my Thunderstruck Wood. I bet he’s itching to test it out

soon.”

“Am I right?”

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted from Phoenix Mountain in the southwest of Aurous Hill, capturing everyone’s

attention.

A thunderbolt struck the valley with incredible force, causing a massive explosion that reverberated throughout the

entire city.

The echo of the thunder lingered over Aurous Hill, gradually fading away after several repetitions.

Meanwhile, dark clouds amassed in the sky above the mountainous region, giving the impression that a heavy

rainstorm was imminent. The meteorological department promptly issued warnings of thunderstorms and heavy

rain, with the possibility of hailstorms.

While everyone thought it was an ordinary thunderstorm, only Jagoan was able to discern that the deafening boom

was caused by the activation of the Thunderstruck Wood!

With a grave expression, he whispered to himself, “It appears that the Mashal of the Warriors Den has already

tested the Thunderbolt!”

Meanwhile, in Phoenix Mountain, located in the southwestern suburbs.

Gideon stood before a five-meter-wide and three-meter-deep pit, his legs weak from what he had just witnessed.

Only thirty seconds ago, deep within the valley, he had carefully selected a massive boulder to be the subject of his

groundbreaking experiment.

Channeling his reiki, he had unleashed the immense power of the Thunderbolt formation, eager to test the might of

this lightning-infused magical tool.

To his surprise, the formation activated with a sudden whirlwind-like motion. He had poured a substantial amount of

reiki into it, but he struggled to complete the operation and cast the spell.

Desperate, he increased the inflow of aura, pushing himself to infuse one-third of his body’s energy into the

formation before finally considering it complete.

Just as he eagerly awaited the results, a dark cloud swiftly formed in the sky, engulfing several hills near Phoenix

Mountain.

In an instant, a thunderbolt as thick as a bucket struck right before his eyes! The deafening thunderclap assaulted

his eardrums with excruciating pain, reducing the boulder to nothing but dust! Not only had the summoned thunder

shattered the boulder, but it also created a sizable hole in the ground beneath it.

This display of immense and almost terrifying power overwhelmed Gideon, leaving him elated and astonished. He

never could have imagined that the Lightning Struck Wood would possess the ability to summon heavenly thunder!

And the sheer strength of this thunder was comparable to that of a heavy artillery shell!

In comparison, the wooden sword bestowed upon him by his Lord paled in comparison.

Gideon’s eyes widened with excitement as he peered into the deep pit. He was studying the unscathed wood that

had been struck by lightning and whispered, “The untamed power of this Wood is truly formidable! With it, I may

even stand a chance against stronger adversaries in the future. How fortunate I am to have come to Aurous Hill!”

Although, he couldn’t conceal his apprehension as he stated, “Nonetheless, this method demands a considerable

quantity of spiritual power and can merely be employed thrice, followed by a regeneration interval. If I were to use

only one-tenth of my energy, it wouldn’t suffice for future battles. I must ensure the completion of the task at hand

to recover the energy I have just spended. Perhaps, I shall humbly request some restorative medicine from my

Lord.”

After a moment of hesitation, Gideon carefully stored the lightning struck wood close to his body, unable to contain

a sigh and pondered, “The exhilaration of summoning thunder was astounding! It felt as if I merged with heaven

and earth. If only I had more time to savor the experience, but everything unfolded so quickly. I wish I could do it

again!”

With that thought in mind, he couldn’t resist reaching into his clothes, grasping the Thunderstruck Wood in his palm.

However, after a brief hesitation, he released his grip, withdrawing it from his clothing and murmured, “No, this

device consumes far too much reiki. If I were to use it again, my strength would significantly wane within a short

period. It would hinder the completion of my task. Patience is required!”

Unaware that the reason behind the Thunderstruck Wood energy consumption was Jagoan’s intention, Gideon took

out the jade ring and pondered, “What is the purpose of this ring? It appears to trigger a passive formation. Could it

be an amulet? If so, I mustn’t recklessly experiment with it, otherwise, I might incur significant losses should it lose

its effect.”

Lost in thought, he touched his chest and exclaimed with enthusiasm, “Aurous Hill, the ancient capital of the Six

Dynasties, lives up to its name! On my first day here, I’ve already acquired two items. If I wait a few more days,

who knows what other treasures await me!”

Without further delay, Gideon resolved to temporarily spare the Evans family and set his sights on Antique Street

the next day to find Zachary. He planned to leverage his connections to secure some more mystical weapons from

his superiors.

Meanwhile, Jagoan continued to gaze at the dark clouds looming over Phoenix Mountain in the west, torn with

indecision. He grappled with the question of whether he should immediately board the helicopter and rush to

Phoenix Mountain to confront Gideon.

By hurrying over, there was a chance he might find the Marshal of the Warriors Den in the mountain. If he

managed to locate him, he would engage in a direct confrontation and ideally, eliminate him.

However, Jagoan quickly dismissed this idea. Rushing over now would not guarantee finding the other party and

even if he did, it might be impractical to initiate a fight.

After all, it was broad daylight and engaging in a prolonged battle that yielded no clear victor would undoubtedly

attract unwanted attention.

Revealing his Mastery of reiki could potentially cause widespread panic in society.

Thus, Jagoan hesitated for a moment and abandoned the immediate plan of heading to Phoenix Mountain. As for

how to deal with Gideon, it required careful long-term strategizing.

However, with Gideon in possession of the Thunderstruck Wood, Jagoan’s chances of eventually eliminating him had

increased slightly!
