Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1498 - Chapter 1498 Chapter 459

Chapter 1498: Chapter 459 Chapter 1498: Chapter 459 After the instructor finished speaking, people gradually entered the Sky-reaching Tower.

The environment changed all around, and Leonard Churchill along with his five companions appeared near a small cabin resembling a logging camp.

Enlightenment appeared immediately.

“You have entered ‘Bandits at Black Crow Castle’ in the Trial Field of Ariel Royal Academy.”

“Death rate of this space: None”

“Current story difficulty tier: D”

“Space exploration progress: 0%”

“Keywords: Team, Exploration, Adventure”

“Mission: An unknown group of bandits has taken over an ancient, abandoned castle, harassing and looting the surrounding villages… The Security Officer of Silver Fir Lord has issued Bounty Orders, and you and your teammates are Bounty Hunters who have come upon hearing the news. Your current mission is to kill at least one bandit per person. Killing the target will earn you Credit Points… Completing the mission can obtain story-related item card rewards. Explore the story and discover the surprises hidden in history…”

“Clue: It is a haunted castle that has been abandoned for decades, rumor has it that villagers have seen bright lights in the castle, as if a licentious ball were being held.”

Upon entering the space, Leonard Churchill habitually scanned the content of Enlightenment in one glance.

Experience proved that these seemingly simple mission hints often contained keys that pertained to the whole story of the Trial Space.

For instance:

With just one glance, Leonard Churchill had roughly deduced the story of the space.

A D-tier story was just the beginning, killing a bandit was very easy; following the line of the castle could trigger a higher difficulty C~D tier story; ultimately the “haunted castle” was likely a hidden plot with an A-tier difficulty.

As for S-tier stories, they wouldn’t usually be openly hinted at in Enlightenment.

However, it was precisely because he understood the story’s difficulty at a glance that Leonard Churchill murmured to himself, “Is the difficulty really this low…”

Probably because he had dealt with too many high-difficulty story spaces before, he suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable seeing this “Bandits at Black Crow Castle.”

But then he thought, “That’s right, after all, it’s just a Trial Space of the academy… with the academy’s authority control, the difficulty won’t be too outrageous…”

In just a moment, his mind was occupied only with how to possibly trigger a high-level story to gain more credits.

The only thing about the space Enlightenment that surprised him was the “0%” exploration rate.

He had virtually participated in various levels of difficulty in Alternate Dimension explorations, but this was the first time he encountered this.

And that meant, this space had never been explored by anyone before.

For some reason, seeing this made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

“It’s strange, why do I always feel like something is off?”

Although Leonard Churchill’s avatar was only First Tier,

his ability for mystical perception related to the soul was derived from the original body.

That is to say, he perceived some premonitions that he shouldn’t be able to at his tier.

Not necessarily dangerous.

More like some things hidden beneath logical reasoning were overlooked, which made him feel that there might be variables in the deductions.

But in an academy trial, cause and effect should be clear, where would the variables come from?

…

The six-person squad entered the space.

Leonard Churchill instantly read through the content of Enlightenment, and at this moment, he also heard the exclamations of his teammates.

“Wow, this is truly magical. So this is a Trial Space? I’ve always heard adventurers say that Alternate Dimension is just like the real world, and it really is…”

“Indeed. But the elements in this space are too sparse.”

“Hahaha, never mind that. We’re not going to stay here forever. Did you see the mission, to annihilate bandits… I really like this. As long as we kill enough, the evaluation will definitely be high!”

“Yes. This time it’s a medium story trial with five hundred people, the number of bandits is limited, we need to hurry, otherwise if others kill all the bandits first, our credits will be less.”

“Hey hey hey, did you not see it? This is an ‘Exploration Mode’. It’s not just about killing.”

…

Although their team was very strong, only David, who had once been a mercenary, and Leonard Churchill had previously entered an Alternate Dimension.

Entering such space for the first time, everyone was inevitably excited.

Hearing what Garfield and others discussed, David, who had experienced the dangers of Alternate Dimensions, couldn’t help but remind, “Let’s be careful. Right now it’s just D-tier difficulty, but once it reaches B-tier or above, even we could face a probability of death.”

He paused, then added, “And… although killing does indeed affect evaluation, usually in ‘Exploration Mode’, triggering high-difficulty story missions or hidden missions will attain higher final rewards.”

“David is right!”

At that, the excitement in the other teammates’ eyes also diminished somewhat.

They also realized that only David in the team had experienced an Alternate Dimension.

Nobody felt out of place as teammates, and the Dwarf Race also didn’t like to think too deeply, driven by curiosity Garfield asked, “David, how do we trigger high-difficulty missions?”

David shrugged, “I don’t know. For now, it seems related to that Black Crow Castle.”

Garfield, upon hearing this, slapped his Heavy Armor, eag
