Chapter 1229: Chapter 378 Black Blade Squad_4 Chapter 1229: Chapter 378 Black Blade Squad_4 “This…”

Lenny’s eyes widened as if his brain refused to accept the scene unfolding before him.

He had been preparing to use his last life-saving technique to escape, but the sudden twist in the plot was totally unexpected.

You see, Lenny recognized the person who had just been severely injured; others might not, but he knew.

That was none other than Mary, the “Wind and Rain Master” from the Black Blade Organization!

She was a notorious Grade A fugitive in the Black Market, an old-time assassin… and she had been critically injured by a punch?

And what about that punch, to critically injure a card master in their element state?

Divine Skills!

Lenny’s knowledge made him realize that the punch was anything but ordinary.

He suddenly realized that he had been horribly wrong!

Quite wrong!

It wasn’t that the “foreigner” didn’t want to help. Instead, the reason he was just watching the show was that he never took the assassins from the Black Blade Organization seriously!

Hiss…

As Lenny came to this realization, he couldn’t help but inhale sharply: that guy was so strong!

At the same time, he recalled the previous conversation and finally understood why he always felt that the guy’s reactions were almost “dull.”

Now looking back, it was not that the other party couldn’t understand, but from the beginning to the end, he had the strength to control the whole situation!

He also felt fortunate that he hadn’t forcefully intervened to take the person away earlier.

Thinking this, Lenny let out a huge sigh of relief.

Because by then, he had already matched the man before him with an S-level fugitive on the arrest warrant.

Recognizing his identity, the greatest risk was already gone.

At least he wasn’t an enemy.

However, on the other side, the Black Blade members simultaneously had an entirely different thought: they shouldn’t have made a move.

They also didn’t expect that what they thought was an easy target turned out to be this ruthless killing god.

…

Back in Sinless City, Leonard Churchill was faced with an assassination squad led by a Sixth Order Card Master.

Now, these were merely two Fifth-Order card masters–the configuration was far too inferior.

It was precisely because they didn’t know his information that one of the core members was critically hit just moments ago.

If these Black Blade members knew who they were dealing with, Leonard thought, they definitely wouldn’t dare to approach him so rashly.

But now it was too late for such thoughts.

Having observed everything he needed to, Leonard didn’t plan to delay any further and was ready to end the fight.

However, just as he was about to make his move, some people apparently still hadn’t grasped the situation.

Leonard suddenly noticed his arm, where red spots were rapidly appearing and then visibly spreading and ulcerating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The burning pain on his arm made him frown slightly, “A curse? Could it be something I picked up while shopping in the store earlier?”

If there were to be a ranking of the Professional Sequence that card masters least wanted to encounter, those proficient in curses would undoubtedly be in the top three.

Although Leonard was slightly taken aback, there wasn’t much disturbance in his eyes.

He muttered to himself, “I thought so, there must be another person hiding.”

Looking closer, the curse was of a high Quality Tier, seemingly borrowing the power of some Relic.

Normally, with this rate of spread, even a Fifth Order Card Master wouldn’t last a minute before collapsing dead on the spot.

However, after just a glance, the red spots on Leonard’s arm disappeared.

He couldn’t dispel the curse, but he could deal with the person casting it.

With that thought in mind, Leonard suddenly stepped into the air, and with a “snap,” his figure vanished from the spot.

Not far away, the “Toad” that had just revealed its killing intent changed its expression in a very human-like manner.

It wanted to jump into the water to hide, but as soon as it pushed off with its legs, the fist coming toward its eyes was already as big as a sandbag.

“Thud!”

The Toad erupted into a cloud of Blood Mist mid-air.

At the same time, a figure tumbled out clumsily.

Upon closer inspection, it was the Black Tooth Granny with the tattoo-covered face from the Black Market.

At that moment, as she looked at the young man in front of her whose half-corroded anti-poison mask revealed his true face, she no longer had the excitement of seeing an easy prey.

In those cloudy but shrewd eyes, there was only endless fear and despair.
