Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1283 - Chapter 1283 Chapter 395 Machinery City - Dragon Hunter

Chapter 1283: Chapter 395: Machinery City – Dragon Hunter Chapter 1283: Chapter 395: Machinery City – Dragon Hunter The legacy of Griffith, the leader of the Rebel Dragon Army, came from the line of court artists of the Taren Imperial Court three thousand years ago.

Therefore, every gesture of hers exuded the elegance of someone well-versed in court etiquette and the detached temperament of an artist.

Added to that, her unrivaled beauty and graceful figure were so perfect that it was hard for anyone to care about her transformation into a witch.

But Leonard Churchill didn’t care from the beginning.

If he could accept the twists in his own heart, of course, he could also accept the peculiarities of others.

It was just that he suddenly realized why the magic mirror had once said, “Transformed witch Lanlingster is the most beautiful woman in the world.”

The two of them chatted idly on the deck, talking intermittently.

The Void Dragon Ship drifted towards the depths of the Abyssal Rift, surrounded by a dense fog that made it impossible to see anything.

Yet, Leonard felt a strong sense of curiosity, as if touching a mystery.

This was his first time roaming in the Void.

In front of him was a card master standing at the pinnacle of the transcendent domain of humanity, probably no one was more qualified to resolve his doubts.

Leonard, curious, went straight to the point and asked, “Senior, what is beneath the Abyssal Rift?”

Griffith looked at the mist in the rift, and the drizzle that seemed to come from nowhere, shaking her head, “No one knows.”

After pondering for a moment, she continued, “Even in the days of the Taren Dynasty, no one figured it out. Countless adventurers paid with their lives to explore the rift, but no one ever reached its end. Some say it’s the edge of the world, others think it’s a passage to another plane… In short, no one can be certain. Those who delve too deep into the rift never return alive. It’s said that Emperor Lanlingster once soared through the rift in search of the world’s truths, but even the classic books of the court do not record what exactly the emperor saw…”

“…”

Leonard was not surprised by this, the Tomb Guardian from the Rune Highlands who had lived for thousands of years had told him this court secret.

Thinking about how Emperor Lanlingster ultimately disappeared in the Southern Continent, he directly asked, “Senior, is there anything special about the Southern Continent? I mean, what’s different compared to the Old Continent, or the East Wilderness, for that matter…”

“Special?”

Griffith pondered for a moment, seemingly wondering why he asked this question all of a sudden.

The Rebel Dragon Army had, after all, spent many years in the Southern Continent and certainly knew.

She simply responded, “The Elements are richer in the Southern Continent, the laws more complete, and the limits higher. This is crucial for the cultivation of a card master. To make an accurate comparison, the East Wilderness is like a desert, barren with only a few drought-resistant plants thriving; the Old Continent is like an oasis, with a somewhat complete ecosystem; while the Southern Continent is more like a lush forest, nurturing countless living creatures… Actually, before the middle period of Taron, the Middle Earth Continent and the Southern Continent were both the most fertile places among the neighboring continents; then, for some unknown reason, the spiritual energy began to fade. This is one of the reasons for the later decline of Taron.”

The Rebel Dragon Army Leader looked at Leonard’s eager expression and with a shallow smile, she added, “The Southern Continent is ancient and mysterious, to this day, human footprints there are very limited. I once traveled deep into the Southern Continent, but encountered many powerful ancient creatures. After being injured and defeated several times, I gave up.”

“Ah? There are creatures in the Southern Continent that could injure you?”

Leonard displayed a look of surprise.

He had heard legends about Emperor Lanlingster exploring it, but legends were just legends.

Hearing firsthand that even a powerful figure had attempted and failed to explore that land, he grew curious about the strong creatures of that continent.

“Yes.”

Griffith’s eyes shone with a clear, water-like gleam, “And not a few. Don’t think my strength is at the tower-top among card masters, but in the long river of endless ages… I’m like dust and gravel.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the endless depths of the rift, continuing, “The Southern Continent is rumored to be the origin of the card masters, where many unknown and mysterious existences thrive. There are even Mythical Creatures that have lived for hundreds of thousands of years… I’ve encountered the mountainous [Stone Titan], and the [Behemoth Beast] from myths…”

With that, she smiled and said, “You might want to ask, why is the Southern Continent so special? I don’t know either. If it weren’t for the limits of my abilities, I would definitely explore the deep secrets of the Southern Continent to find the truth of this world…”

“…”

Leonard listened quietly, greatly enlightened.

….

The two chatted casually like this.

Suddenly, Griffith seemed to think of something and asked, “By the way, Leonard, you’ve given our organization such great help this time, is there anything I can help you with? As long as it’s within my power, feel free to ask.”

Aragon had previously mentioned that participating in this hijacking would bring gratitude from the organization’s leader.

Leonard’s brow quirked with a smile, “You’re too polite, senior.”

A formal politeness was still necessary.

Griffith’s lips held a hint of a smile, her sparkling eyes encouraging, as if to say: just speak up.

Leonard certainly wasn’t just being polite, and he directly stated, “I’d like to ask for your guidance on the training of Domain…”

It was Barre Shepherd’s mentorship that enabled his steady advancement to his current status.

Now he deeply understood how crucial it was to have a senior’s guidance on the path of transcendence. This was even more important than any rare relics or secret manuals of cultivation techniques!

Griffith wasn’t surprised by Leonard’s query and even seemed pleased, “I’ve heard about your situation from Aragon before, and at that time, I thought you were studying too broadly. But now it seems you have your own path. If I’m not mistaken, your Professional Sequence is probably one of the lost Card Master Sequences outside the fifty-two Demon God Sequences. Or perhaps a special Demon God inheritance from before the Chaotic Era…”
