Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1118 - Chapter 1118 Chapter 343 Long Time No See Miss Rita

Chapter 1118: Chapter 343 Long Time No See, Miss Rita Chapter 1118: Chapter 343 Long Time No See, Miss Rita The legendary card master, “Thieves Emperor” Quintu, had his combat power severely limited, trapped on the spot by the gravitational force of four Mechanical Battle Suits.

Seeing this scene, Leonard Churchill also fell into deep thought.

The gravitational force emanating from the four Mecha suits was like a powerful magnet, not only sticking to Quintu but also ensuring that he couldn’t escape.

What was more troublesome was that the dagger in Quintu’s hand could hardly inflict any substantial damage on the thick armor.

Although these Mechanical Battle Suits didn’t have combat power anywhere close to the Titan Battle Armor found in the tomb, their defenses were completely immune to the threat of the dagger.

Not just physical defense, but they also had a layer of Magic Energy Plating that could resist destruction by Elements and Laws.

Even though the Relic Level dagger could cut some notches in the armor’s surface, it couldn’t kill the controllers, thus the fight couldn’t be ended.

And the Magic Energy Light Swords in the hands of the Mechanical Battle Suits posed a deadly threat to Quintu’s flesh and blood body.

At the same time, Leonard Churchill also understood why the Orlan Royal Family had sent these Mechanical Warriors.

Quintu was a legendary God Thief, especially skilled in assassination.

To deal with him, unless bringing a Seventh Grade, even two or three Legends risked a “one-for-one” scenario, and they might not even be able to keep him contained.

Yet the Mechanical Warriors perfectly countered Quintu’s God Thief Sequence.

No.

It can be said that this kind of Mechanical Battle Suit with absolute defense almost counters all Professional Sequences.

Leonard Churchill, observing this, wasn’t surprised by the combat power of the machinery.

He was only curious as to how the Mechanical Battle Suits were able to change the gravitational field?

Leonard Churchill also thought of another possibility, external assistance.

Because he also had this kind of external aid on him.

That was the [Power Stone Golden Sphere] that assisted with practicing secret skills!

Leonard Churchill thought back to his previous conversation with Lew Williams.

The Song Family had already obtained a large part of the design blueprints for the Titan Battle Armor.

The armor and weaponry were no longer secrets.

But the biggest mystery was the Energy Core system that powered the armor’s combat capabilities.

Now, seeing these Mechanical Battle Suits, Leonard Churchill considered a possibility: “Could the energy core of Titan machinery actually be some sort of ‘controllable gravitational substance’?”

…

The battle continued.

Quintu was having a very hard time.

The gravitational suppression meant his movement speed was reduced by ninety percent, and the four Mechanical Battle Suits relentlessly stuck to him, never giving him a chance to breathe.

It seemed they intended to wear him down right here.

If Quintu chose to escape, he might be able to save his own life, but the Song Family’s Mechanics would surely get caught, and the escort mission would fail.

Suddenly, the situation turned into a deadlock.

Leonard Churchill didn’t rush to show himself.

He figured that if the Orlan Royal Court’s men could find these people, there must be some way to confirm their location.

Just like the previous betrayal by the guard beside Lew Williams.

There must be an insider of the Orlan Royal Family among this group of people.

If he didn’t find out who it was, even if the people were rescued, the problem would remain unresolved.

Thinking this, Leonard Churchill carefully observed the twenty or thirty people present.

Loyal guards were mostly lying dead on the ground, making it easier to narrow down the living suspects.

Not everyone is a “professional actor” able to hide their flaws completely in a crisis.

Leonard Churchill glanced over and saw that the Mechanics almost certainly weren’t the problem.

But the expression of a small mustachioed supervisor was slightly off.

In the current situation, being caught was almost a certainty.

Beyond the Mechanics, who had a use value, it was quite possible that everyone else could die, and fear was only human.

Yet, while this small mustachioed man appeared to be panicking, his micro-expressions revealed a cunning “slyness,” as if he were waiting for something.

After observing for a while longer, Leonard Churchill was certain that this guy was very likely the insider.

Of course.

There was also Monica, who had been previously confirmed as a spy.

Leonard Churchill still didn’t make a move.

The current situation was such that the four Mechanical Warriors still couldn’t completely restrain the “Thieves Emperor” Quintu.

He surmised that the Orlan Royal Family’s men surely didn’t only bring these four Mechanical Warriors; there must be reinforcements.

Leonard Churchill was pondering a plan.

Though he felt that the Mecha’s gravity had no effect on him, since even Legends couldn’t kill them, he was also completely helpless against the Mecha.

Leonard Churchill hesitated to act because he couldn’t think of any surefire way to safely rescue this group of people.

…

If they had been human card masters, Quintu would have killed them long ago.

But at this moment, even using all his means, he couldn’t change the situation.

Machinery itself was immune to all mental methods, and its physical and magical resistances were at least of Seventh Grade tier.

Attack spells or control-based sorcery like quicksand, vines, or swamps had very little effect on these Mechanical Battle Suits that could fly and dig through the ground.

Quintu was well aware that he absolutely couldn’t drag out the situation for long.

After many unsuccessful attempts, he had no choice but to pull out a Dark Gold Card.

The Card disintegrated, and suddenly a simple goose-neck copper lamp appeared in his hand as he shouted, “Go first!”

The lamp’s engraved curses glowed briefly, and from its spout, a thick black vapor billowed forth.

Like a dam breach, the black vapor instantly engulfed him and the four Mechanical Battle Suits.

A fifth-grade exclusive Relic [Warden’s Nether Lamp].

It could create a barrier that stripped away all senses.

It was said that those afflicted would fall into endless darkness.

Since he couldn’t overcome the four Mechanical Battle Suits, he completely stripped away all perception; indeed, it was a good idea.

But it was only enough to buy time.

Leonard Churchill saw this scene without surprise, but murmured, “It’s time to make an appearance, right…”

Using this lamp relic, Quintu had silently killed many adversaries before.
