I Spy With My Secret Eyes

Chapter 188

Oliver was dumbfounded. He wondered, “Could such a thing truly exist?”

In his mind, concepts like “Air-driving Skill” or a “fist guidebook” were bullshit. They were only found in novels and movies.

It was true that combat arts existed, but they were far from the mythical abilities depicted in literature and films. Anyway, skills utilized by professionals like Wayne and Simon in military close combat did exist.

However, fantastical abilities such as “scaling walls”, “crossing rivers with a reed”, or utilizing “internal energy” were purely fictional concepts.

Nevertheless, Oliver’s perspective had shifted since gaining his own extraordinary abilities and encountering the mystical Enchanting Hollow.

He now believed that if he could possess such miraculous powers, then what impossibilities could truly exist in this world?

He thought to himself, “This is just a fist guidebook, so it is nothing compared to the Immortality Energy, isn’t it?”

Thinking of this, Oliver calmed down and began to identify the guidebook. A second later, an identification message appeared in his mind.

[Style Fist Guidebook, authored in the fall of 1864 by a gentleman named Carl Allen, also known as Remex or Raymond Allen, the master of Style Fist. This was a genuine and handwritten manuscript penned by Raymond himself.]

[Craftsmanship: None.]

[Value assessment: The estimated worth as a historical artifact is approximately 200 thousand dollars; it’s worth 20 million dollars when it comes to its combat arts significance.]

What the hell?

Oliver was shocked.

He didn’t expect this battered manuscript possessed two extraordinary values: one as a historical artifact and the other as a treasure trove of combat arts knowledge.

He thought, ‘It’s worth a fortune, but it’s weird. Aren’t these people frauds?
