Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1336 - Chapter 1336 Chapter 409 Prophet_3

Chapter 1336: Chapter 409 Prophet_3 Chapter 1336: Chapter 409 Prophet_3 Just like that, nearly a week had passed, and Leonard Churchill, who had collected a large number of fragments, had no idea where he was.

He guessed he was in area C7.

Around him, the endless void still stretched in all directions.

Seeing this situation, Saint Crown City and Imperial Capital Behemoth, a hundred kilometers away on the map, must have been shattered into pieces.

Leonard didn’t wander aimlessly but followed the trails of the vanguard teams from the Southern Continent.

He did encounter several Mercenary Groups along the way, but after scouting with a shadow, he didn’t find an opportunity and didn’t want to get involved.

The Mercenary Groups that could make it here were all top teams from the Southern Continent, almost all of them led by Seventh-Order Card Masters.

Fighting them would be troublesome.

Moreover, from these people, Leonard had learned of a top-secret piece of news.

Deep within this mysterious realm, there were several true elite teams from the three major Royal Families of the Ariel Empire and the Holy Church!

Leonard knew that these fellows were heading for the Imperial Capital Behemoth, and among them, there inevitably were masters who had explored very deeply.

But the Royal Family?

Now, whenever Leonard heard these terms, the idea of “striking it rich” automatically equalled in his mind.

Past experiences had taught him that these top nobles were powerful, but at the same time, they carried truly valuable goods on them.

It wasn’t in Leonard’s nature to pass up an opportunity if it presented itself.

As for the risks…

Leonard now had a thorough understanding of the Southern Continent; it was highly unlikely that any Eighth or Ninth Rank Card Masters were involved in pioneering. These were high-ranking individuals on the level of Grand Marshals, with precious lives. How could they possibly participate in an excavation that involved risking the lives of expendable slaves and that would inevitably be thoroughly explored at some point?

If there were no Eighth Rankers, Leonard had just learned Void Displacement, and in this environment, could he really be cornered?

With this in mind, he followed some trails and kept going.

However, what Leonard hadn’t expected was that he didn’t find the enemy, but the enemy took the initiative to come to him.

….

On this day, on an inconspicuous fragment of a plane deep in the void.

Leonard and Ivan were having dinner.

To avoid detection, they had not lit a fire.

A pile of empty cans accumulated on the ground.

Even the field rations Leonard had brought were high-quality cans of various flavors.

The girl wasn’t picky either, eating with relish.

But suddenly, Ivan looked up into the void and said, “Huh… Mr. Leonard Churchill, it seems someone is coming.”

Leonard’s eyes flashed as he stood up immediately, not daring to be careless, “Where?”

For Ivan, the chaotic void was like water to a fish; she could easily sense subtle fluctuations within the void.

So these past few days, the girl served as a lookout whenever she was awake.

The relic was enormous, and although Leonard had followed the trails left by the people of the Southern Continent, he had been very careful, and the possibility of being detected was very slim.

If someone was approaching, it was likely they were doing so deliberately.

Ivan, oblivious to the danger, pointed around and said, “Hmm… over there, there, there… and there!”

As Leonard looked to the directions Ivan pointed, he thought, “We’re surrounded!”

He quickly packed up everything and, instead of fleeing through the empty gaps, randomly chose a direction where people were definitely present!

Although this move would inevitably lead to a collision with the enemy.

In a surrounding tactic, an “opening” without enemies was most likely a trap deliberately left by them and often the most dangerous.

Leonard felt there was nothing wrong with his choice.

In just a few moments, he had dashed out for a kilometer.

Seeing the target suddenly trying to escape, the enemies stopped hiding.

Powerful auras erupted from all directions.

As soon as Leonard Churchill burst out, he saw seven or eight people blocking his path. Judging by the leaking Dragon’s Might, at least two of them were Seventh-Order!

“Eh? This unlucky?”

Seeing the enemy’s arrangement, Leonard Churchill felt his scalp tingle.

But more than that, he was puzzled. Was he really so unlucky that he randomly chose the direction where the enemy’s heavy troops were waiting?

Just now, Ivan had confirmed that there were enemies in all seven directions.

If it wasn’t just his bad luck, and each direction had two Seventh-Order, they wouldn’t all come to kill him. Could the Southern Continent have sent more than a dozen Seventh-Order?

Impossible!

The moment the two sides faced each other, one of the enemies immediately pulled out a relic, a skull bone shrouded in billowing dark aura.

Seeing the setup of the Barrier unfolding, Leonard Churchill recognized it as a “Soul-marking” type of mystical Spell.

Another four released spatial restriction Barriers at the same time.

These methods directly sealed off all his paths of retreat, ensuring he would inevitably get hit no matter what.

“They came prepared!”

Leonard Churchill’s gaze turned sharp, a sense of foreboding in his heart.

Almost simultaneously with the enemy’s attack, a rift in the Void appeared in front of him, and he stepped through.

In a blink, he had reappeared a hundred meters away.

The feeling of a blade grazing his scalp raised goosebumps all over Leonard Churchill’s body.

At the same time, he was thankful that he had just learned “Void Instant Step,” a life-saving ability.

It was precisely because of this Spatial Teleportation that Leonard Churchill avoided those seven or eight nearly lethal Spells.

Otherwise, this encounter would have been enough to kill him instantly.

The strength of the enemy also excited Leonard Churchill.

As long as he avoided this first round of attack, the most dangerous moment had passed.

However, before Leonard Churchill could feel too relieved, a chill ran down his spine as he sensed the great terror of death approaching.

In an extreme moment, he slightly turned his body, and then a burst of black light, as if it had anticipated where he would appear, pierced through his chest.

Leonard Churchill’s eyes widened in shock, “This…”

How did they manage that?

Prediction?

No!

It definitely was not!

Leonard Churchill instantly understood what had happened.

If the enemy could predict his movements once, it could be said they were meticulous.

However, Leonard Churchill also possessed an almost flawless deductive ability.

Therefore, he was certain the enemy could not possibly predict his three decisions at the same time!

Position, breakout direction, Spatial Displacement direction…

It wasn’t bad luck or coincidence, but the enemy had some kind of ability to foresee the future.

“Could it be a Card Master from the Prophet Sequence?”

Leonard Churchill, with a hole the size of a fist bored through his chest, tilted his head slightly and saw, in his peripheral view, the old man in a long robe who had just made a move, with a Great Dragon emblem on his chest, and he vaguely understood something.

This was the insignia of the Grand Deacon of the Holy Church.

Leonard Churchill had seen it before. The Dragon-blooded Card Master who almost killed him in the City of Thieves had one.

Those who bore this emblem usually had some special abilities.

And here and now, he was facing yet another formidable enemy who posed a lethal threat to him!
