Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1329 - Chapter 1329 Chapter 407 Many Void Materials_3

Chapter 1329: Chapter 407 Many Void Materials_3 Chapter 1329: Chapter 407 Many Void Materials_3 Leonard Churchill wouldn’t be surprised at all if human detectives easily exposed the location of the Mother Bug–had that been the case, the [Ominous Matron Maggot Margit] would have been annihilated by the top-rank card masters of Saint Crown City long ago.

Leonard Churchill sniffed the air, discerning the direction without any hesitation, and once again dashed toward the depths of the burrow.

…

Meanwhile.

On the other side, the battle with the main force was still raging.

The team of human adventurers was trapped in a huge cave by the insects.

Insect swarms filled the tunnels from all sides; there was absolutely no escape.

The insects’ attack was a tactical siege; it’s more accurate to say they were herded here rather than escaped.

At this moment, less than twenty of the two-hundred-person team, including Non-Player Characters, were still alive.

The plot difficulty had suddenly escalated to Class A, with [Void Mantises], capable of void abilities, emerging from the swarm.

They’re likely the close guards of the Mother Bug’s nest.

These were monsters that had never been mentioned in previous intelligence.

Their scythes could easily penetrate mechas and almost all card masters below the sixth tier were being killed off one by one, leading to severe casualties.

The adventurers who were still alive had become desperate.

Enlightenment hints that there’s a Prohibition Enchantment here, preventing anyone from leaving.

Even the NPC Mechanical Warriors, who served as the main fighting force, were showing signs of running out of ammunition.

As the firewall gradually broke down, more and more insects continued to rush in like moths to a flame.

For the adventurers who wanted to break through, it had become utterly impossible.

Struggling bitterly, they could see nothing ahead but despairing death.

However, it was at this very moment that an unexpected incident occurred.

Suddenly, as if something happened, those Void Mantises just vanished!

As though they had a more important task, they blinked into the void, heading towards the depths of the cave.

This made everyone realize that some humans must have threatened the Mother Bug in the nest, prompting these insects to abandon everything and rush back to rescue it.

At the same time, everyone felt a slight relief from the pressure, but was also greatly puzzled.

“What’s going on?”

“Could it be that the experts from Saint Crown City are already here?”

“No, that can’t be it; the information hasn’t been sent out, how could the reinforcements have arrived?”

“Could it be that Lance and the others triggered a hidden plot earlier?”

“…”

Not only were the few survivors in the main force bewildered, but the Elite Squad that was also desperately fleeing from the chasing insects didn’t understand either.

They had discovered the insect nest, and the Class A plot was triggered by them.

After triggering it, they were chased around by the group of [Void Mantises].

After causing a big mess, they also understood why no one had managed to bring back intelligence alive before.

These guards of the Mother Bug possessed void abilities and could easily pass through walls, making escape impossible.

Just as they were facing imminent annihilation, the chasing mantises, unbelievably, disappeared?

…

Meanwhile, Leonard Churchill, knowing he was about to face the final boss in Alternate Dimension, pushed forward even more aggressively.

But at one point, a pitch-black crack suddenly appeared in the void.

Right behind him, less than a foot away.

Space fluctuations were quite unique, and such High-level Laws were difficult to detect.

Normally, even Sixth and Seventh Order card masters would find it extremely hard to notice a sudden space rift opening behind them.

By the time they realized that a blade-arm from the void was protruding through the rift, it would already be close enough to pose a lethal threat to High-Order card masters.

Unfortunately for the assailant, it encountered Leonard Churchill.

Since acquiring the [Space Rune Stone], a Supreme treasure, his comprehension of Space Law had surged substantially.

Although he hadn’t yet learned various amazing Spatial Spells, his extremely high space affinity made him attuned to space as a fish is to water.

He could feel the slightest ripple in the water very clearly.

After entering the Mother Bug’s nest, Leonard Churchill had been on guard for all sorts of strange High-Order insects popping up.

His senses instantly spiked.

Almost at the very instant he perceived it, Leonard Churchill’s speed unexpectedly increased manifold, instantly widening the gap.

At the same time, three flying knives were thrust towards the location of the space rift.

“Zzt! Zzt! Zzt!”

Leonard Churchill only heard three sounds of knives piercing through, and as he glanced back, he saw a half-human tall blue-gold mantis with three bloody holes pierced by flying knives, spurting out some yellow-green blood plasma.

“A Fourth-tier Void Mantis?”

Leonard had thought he would encounter some Seventh-Rank Insect with overwhelming combat power.

However, he never expected to encounter members of the Insect Race from the Void.

Thoughts aside, Leonard didn’t give the insect any chance to retreat into the Void, as he manipulated the flying knives to slay it there and then.

He stopped, walked over, and looked at the head cleaved open by the flying knife, where a deep purple Crystal Core shimmered inside.

“A Fourth-tier Void Demon Crystal? Hiss…”

Seeing this Crystal Core, the size of a fingernail, Leonard felt as though he was looking at a mountain of gold.

This thing was worth a fortune!

But before Leonard could covet it further, his eyes suddenly sharpened, sensing traces of Space Rifts all around him.

Knowing the situation, Leonard understood there were still many more Void Mantises around!

Having already experienced the trouble of spatial abilities, he wouldn’t give these insects any opportunities.

With a reverse grip, a pitch-black Great Sword appeared in his hand.

These Space Rifts sealed all his escape routes, and in normal circumstances, death was almost certain.

Yet Leonard had battle experience in dealing with such situations; he took the Useless Great Sword and charged hard in one direction.

The indomitable Great Sword forcibly blocked the Space Rifts that could easily slice through anything, while not waiting for several insects to fully emerge, over a dozen flying knives had already pierced through their heads in an instant.

They were too fragile, even the Fourth-tier Void Mantises had about the same defensive capabilities as a Second-tier card master.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”

Having confirmed the structure of the insects, Leonard’s flying knives were extremely precise, decapitating with a single slice.

‘You have killed ‘Fourth Order B-Class Calamity*Void Mantis’, Points +8000′

‘You have killed ‘Fourth Order B-Class Calamity*Void Mantis’, Points +8000′

‘…’

Leonard easily avoided what could have been a fatal encirclement for any Sixth Order card master.

Looking at the mantis corpses on the ground, he sliced open the head with a flying knife, and each head contained a Crystal Core.

Seeing this, Leonard’s eyes gradually heated up.

He hadn’t bothered to collect materials from the previous insects, firstly because there was no time and secondly because their value wasn’t high.

But looking at these Crystal Cores, Leonard had no intention of letting them go.

There were also the insect’s sickles, bodies, flesh… anything associated with Space Law was extremely valuable rare Material!

Moreover, these were Catastrophe Level creatures, providing very high Points.

If he could kill more, the reward calculation might surprise him with a high rare card draw probability.

Leonard collected several Crystal Cores and, feeling the Space Rifts fluctuating around him once again, he fully understood the challenge of the Alternate Dimension.

The insects guarding the Matron’s Nest were these Void Mantises.

His previous speculation was correct; the creature difficulty ceiling of this dimension should be Seventh Tier!

Initially, Leonard had contemplated various means to deal with Seventh Rank creatures; now, seeing these mantises, he realized the difficulty of this dimension might not be as hard as he had imagined?

Normally, a group of insects with spatial abilities would pose a much greater threat than Seventh Rank ones.

The few mantises just now were enough to wipe out everyone participating in the mission, including the Brigadier NPC in the Hunting God Armor.

But they had encountered Leonard Churchill, who understood Space Law!

Although any single insect had the power to kill him instantly, Leonard also had the ability to instantly kill them.

Leonard didn’t think his methods would lose to a group of insects nearly devoid of intelligence.

And he still had Ivan, the “BUG”!

Thinking of something, he grinned; low-level insects lacked intelligence, but the Matron had it!

Killing the Matron would mean thoroughly eliminating the threat!

Since the Nest’s guards couldn’t stop him, Leonard’s chain of thought became active.

He intended to pull off a big heist!

Before Elder Clinton on his shoulder could exclaim, “What the hell are you doing, lad!”,

As the thought arose, Leonard had no intention of dealing with these negligible threats, the Void Mantises, and once again charged forward.

With his speed already pushed to the limit, and with Ivan’s secret assistance, he successfully charged deep into the Nest.

Seeing that giant worm appear before his eyes, Leonard Churchill smiled brilliantly.

The appearance of Enlightenment confirmed all his speculations.

He had touched upon the hidden storyline of the Alternate Dimension.

‘You have discovered ‘Ominous Matron Maggot Margit’, Story Exploration Degree +30%, Extra Card Draw Reward +10%; Triggered S-Rank Hidden Story: Hunting the Matron. Margit is a vanguard under one of the Seven Catastrophes Monarchs, Kalakta. Killing this Catastrophe might trigger an unknown difficulty story; at the same time, you will receive astonishing accolades from Saint Crown City…’
