Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1330 - Chapter 1330 Chapter 408 Another Generous Settlement Reward

Chapter 1330: Chapter 408 Another Generous Settlement Reward Chapter 1330: Chapter 408 Another Generous Settlement Reward Leonard Churchill looked at the massive pile of white fleshworms before him, his smile growing ever more brilliant.

The main quest in the “Terror Nest – Malevolent Matriarch Malgit” space was for adventurers to locate the signal from the worm nest and wait for High Tier powerhouses from Saint Crown City to join the hunt.

It wasn’t actually expecting the adventurers to kill the matriarch worm themselves.

Such a plot setup meant either the Spatial Will judged their team’s combat power as completely unequal to the matriarch, or there was some other hidden plot involving the mother worm.

In any case, they couldn’t kill it.

Now that Leonard Churchill was facing the final boss, he understood why the Spatial Will thought the adventurers couldn’t kill this monster.

Because this Ominous Matron Maggot possessed a form of mental attack that was unsolvable for any card master below Seventh Rank!

The instant he rushed into the nest, Enlightenment went crazy with notifications, “You are exempt from the Ominous Matron Maggot’s ‘Divine Art*Mind Link’ Mind Control…”

Here, Mental Power wasn’t an untouchable ethereal force but rippled like waves of the sea, continuously assaulting Leonard’s soul.

It felt like a small boat in a storm, about to be overturned at any moment.

The Matron’s tier was Seventh, and releasing a God Skill was not something the Clown mask alone could exempt.

Normally, even an Eighth Order card master would be controlled.

But Leonard was completely unharmed.

Because what he was carrying in his pocket was a relic emanating moonlight.

…

“Hehe, so it is a mental attack, huh…”

Leonard, far from being alarmed, felt a kind of ‘stable’ relief upon seeing this.

In fact, before entering the Alternate Dimension, Leonard had thoroughly studied their behaviors from various intelligence sources.

It turned out that low-level Insect Race possessed very low intelligence, fighting almost purely on instinct.

Yet, the matriarch could precisely control hundreds of millions of insect soldiers, necessitating a special and highly efficient way of communication with the swarm.

This method was also inevitably on the mental level.

Just as God communicates with Believers through faith.

However, the [Ominous Matron Maggot Margit] wasn’t God Tier, just a Seventh Rank or perhaps a special Seventh Rank creature.

Therefore, Leonard wagered that this creature hiding deep inside the cave had an exceptionally prominent Mental Power.

Usually, the universe’s creators are fair.

Especially in creatures, if they excel extraordinarily in one aspect, there’s definitely a drawback in others.

Monsters with strong bodies have weak Magic and Mental Power…

Monsters proficient in mental attacks generally have very weak bodies…

Even creatures as near-perfect as Great Dragons have their weaknesses in Mental Power.

At least Leonard had not found any exceptions so far.

So, without even seeing the monster, he had already judged the situation he was about to face.

This final boss of the unrevealed Duplication, surely proficient in Mental Power attacks, would have a weak physical constitution.

So, long ago, Leonard prepared by taking out that same Silver Moon Sacred Relic with a strong Mental Contamination–[Moon].

…

Leonard’s Mental Power was mighty.

But facing a monster that the Spatial Will judged impossible for adventurers to kill, he didn’t think his own abilities would hold up.

He must rely on external objects.

Ordinary objects weren’t enough, and he estimated that even an Eighth Rank mental defense card might not withstand such a level of God Skill.

Leonard didn’t have one.

If controlled, he would undoubtedly die!

So, he thought of “fighting poison with poison.”

Mental Pollution was a bit like a glowing sun; anyone exposed to its light would feel the heat radiation.

Yet, there are countless stars in the universe far bigger and brighter than the sun, but people only feel the heat from the sun.

Because it’s close enough!

That was how Leonard used [Moon] to counter the insect’s mental erosion.

[Moon] was a Sacred Relic of the Silver Moon Sect, and the Moon God Arachne had already revived, gathering enormous Divine Power from countless Believers, making its contamination very strong.

Normally, this would be a hot potato for professionals of any Realm.

However, Leonard could ignore Faith Pollution, and he had cultivated the Secret Skill “Moonless Mind,” so the Moon had no negative effects on him.

The pollution it emitted wrapped around him like a halo of light.

Thus, just now,

Facing the “Ominous Matron Maggot Margit’s” area mental attack, Leonard used the Moon’s contamination to exempt himself from most of the mental assault.

Like a summer night’s starry sky, even though every star is vastly larger than the moon, once the silver moon is high, other starlights fade.

Although it didn’t completely block it, the remaining mental assault was something Leonard could now fully endure.

…

The moment he came face to face with the ultimate boss, Leonard didn’t dare delay.

The instant he was exempt from mental control, he charged forward and punched the nearly ten-story-tall giant white worm.

“Whirr…”

Like ripples in water, they undulated over the worm’s corpulent body.

Leonard saw his full-force punch seemingly did not affect the monster at all?

He vividly felt the force of his punch being absorbed by that fatty undulation.

It felt as though he had made a round, and on the monster’s head a “-1” appeared, while its health bar read “1000W.”

Scraping merely describes the aptness of Leonard’s attack at this moment.

Upon seeing this, Leonard immediately switched to wielding a sharp Great Sword in his hand.
