Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1180 - Chapter 1180 362

Chapter 1180: 362 Chapter 1180: 362 It was a touch even more delicate than the feel of silk, warm and soft in his grasp.

Sophia Jones glanced at him once and said nothing.

After several seconds, she looked at Leonard Churchill again before finally reminding him, “You’ve been enchanted by the ‘Fox Immortal’ lady behind you.”

Leonard Churchill slightly raised his eyebrows, as if he had just realized, “Oh?”

Upon hearing this, he was not too surprised.

He had just confirmed that he indeed had been cursed by a spell.

After all, he had just experienced the Pleasurable Dreamscape of the Moon God, and when he felt restless just now, Leonard Churchill was actually on guard.

An inexplicable restlessness, at first it could have been a whim, but later it became more suspicious.

Sophia’s tone rose slightly as she reiterated, “Oh?”

Her tone seemed to hint, ‘So, the hand?’

Seeing Leonard Churchill looking enchanted without any attempt to hide it, Sophia was astonished for a moment.

Then she smiled helplessly.

She did not say more, as if tacitly allowing this behavior.

It wasn’t all about Leonard Churchill’s desire for tenderness, rather he was in a state of enlightenment.

At that moment, an enlightenment occurred: “You have a comprehension in danger, ‘Spell*Fox Immortal Charming Words’ recognition improved, proficiency in Illusion Technique +312”

Leonard Churchill understood the essence of this spell.

This train journey was very special.

Sophia also realized that.

…

There was a subtle dynamic between them.

It made what should have been a grueling train journey suddenly seem quite pleasant.

At least Leonard Churchill thought it was rather good.

Although it was a trap aimed at Sophia, the two of them ignored everyone else and inadvertently stayed out of the scheme.

However, if they didn’t go looking for trouble, trouble would come to them.

Time passed, and just like the noise in the carriage, it was cluttered and chaotic.

Those playing cards were still playing loudly, the smokers kept smoking, and the vendors continued their rounds…

Gradually, a thick layer of smoke permeated the air above the carriage.

Leonard Churchill choked on the smog.

“You have a comprehension in danger, ‘Immortal Law*Miasma of Bewildering Smoke’ recognition +124, toxins resistance +33”

Seeing the enlightenment tips, he realized that the middle-aged man in the third row smoking had made his move.

And he had been at it for quite some time.

But he underestimated Leonard Churchill’s resistance to toxins.

The body reconstituted after [Blood Plague] gave him an extremely high tolerance to toxins, and the smog that could greatly hurt an average Fifth-Order Card Master had little effect on him.

Sophia had realized earlier that these tactics were not aimed at her, but were meant to “teach a lesson” to Leonard Churchill, an outsider meddling in the affairs of the White Family.

Knowing Leonard’s strength, she did not remind him.

After all, Sophia knew that if the Immortal Aegis Animals on this train took action and did not get their way, they would not just let it go.

They would certainly offer some compensation.

And for a card master, these were all great opportunities.

Useless to others, but Leonard Churchill’s Professional Sequence could use it.

The two of them quietly observed what this group of “people” was up to.

However, the unexpected happened without any warning.

Leonard Churchill suddenly shivered.

Seeing his expression, Sophia Jones asked, “What’s wrong?”

Leonard lifted his right hand and looked at it, stared at his five gleaming fingers, and said, “My ring has been stolen.”

Just now, as the train shook, he had shielded Sophia with his right hand, but without noticing, the ring had vanished.

What surprised him was that someone could steal the ring from his finger without him noticing?

What kind of skill was this?

Sophia looked around the carriage with a tightened gaze and said, “They used the Immortal Law, it’s probably very hard to find now. Did you lose something important again?”

She probably guessed what method the thief used.

Once successful, it would be troublesome to retrieve it.

Hearing this, Leonard’s expression changed slightly, “The Storage Ring doesn’t matter. But the [Ring] has also been lost.”

Prior important things were stored inside the painting, so losing two Storage Rings wasn’t a big problem.

The key issue was the loss of the [God Stealer Ring].

Sophia frowned upon hearing this.

That ring was one of the White Family’s three major Supreme treasures; losing it was indeed very problematic.

It seemed the White Family came prepared and already knew the ring was in Leonard’s possession.

However, before Sophia could think of hunting down the thief herself, Leonard simply smiled lightly, “No worries. If it was just the Storage Ring, I really couldn’t do anything about it. Sadly, that guy chose to steal the [Ring]…”

Sophia, not understanding, gave him an inquiring look, “???”

Leonard said, “The thief will send it back on his own.”

If it had been the former [God Stealer Ring] of the White Family, any of their people could have taken it.

Unfortunately, that ring had a master-recognizing Artifact Spirit.

In someone else’s hands, not only did Leonard know that the ring was currently in the hands of someone in the fifth row, amongst the group playing cards, but he also knew that person was about to be very unlucky.

As expected.

No sooner had his words fallen than a scream of terror rang out from the carriage, “Ah!”

The man wearing a felt hat suddenly jumped up from his seat.

He seemed to have grabbed something as hot as a red-hot iron piece, panicky trying to fling it off his hand.

Upon closer inspection, it was an ancient ring emitting a sinister red glow.

However, no matter how hard the man tried, the ring stuck to his finger as if glued, impossible to shake off.

And visibly to the naked eye, the man’s entire arm withered rapidly, spreading to his body in an instant.

Even the illusion of a White Family Immortal Aegis Animal, a white rat, appearing behind him, could do nothing to stop it. He was on the verge of dying on the spot.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Leonard’s mouth rose slightly.

Prosperity recognized its master, and it was already a “Little Evil God.”

It could do nothing to Leonard, but to others, it was a deadly threat.

Sophia, seeing this, watched the concern that had appeared in her face dissipate in an instant, revealing a relaxed demeanor as if she were just watching a show.

The startled cry of the mouse-man seemed to have pressed a pause button on the carriage.

All eyes in the carriage were now sharply turned toward Leonard and his companion.
