Catastrophe Card King
Chapter 1549 - Chapter 1549 Chapter 472 The Ancient Giant Hand Suppressed

Chapter 1549: Chapter 472: The Ancient Giant Hand Suppressed Under the Sky-reaching Tower_3 Chapter 1549: Chapter 472: The Ancient Giant Hand Suppressed Under the Sky-reaching Tower_3 Even though the force behind Princess Sofia is formidable, it cannot confront head-on.

Unsealing “that thing” to create chaos was also the best opportunity to escape.

…

Leonard Churchill spared it only a glance and, without any delay, turned and ran.

The academy was filled with panicked students scattering everywhere.

The students weren’t foolish; seeing the situation, they knew it was no longer safe to stay in the academy. Few headed for the shelters, most rushed towards the main gate instead.

Leonard Churchill exchanged a glance with David, who was mingled among the crowd.

David also quietly disappeared into the crowd, running out of the academy.

In such chaos, no one would notice a low-level card master.

Leonard activated [Giant Strength Card], gripping Serli with one hand and Garfield with the other, and sprinted into the distance using Light Body Skill.

Inside the academy, people were running for their lives everywhere, making the scene extremely chaotic.

Although the academy was large, the speed of the Extraordinary Man was extremely fast.

Especially when fleeing for their lives.

It wasn’t just an earthquake; the shockwaves from the fighting grew more intense wave by wave, causing the academy’s grounds to collapse and the barrier’s light in the sky grew increasingly brilliant.

Suddenly, some barrier broke, and their view cleared instantly.

Only then did everyone see clearly; there were two Great Dragons, each a hundred meters long, battling fiercely in the sky.

One was a Silver Dragon, and the other, a Black Dragon.

Although transformed into dragon forms, both dragons’ faces retained traces of their original human expressions.

The Black Dragon was none other than the dean of the Royal Academy, Zimmerman, a top-tier powerhouse who had advanced to the Ninth Rank two hundred years ago.

And that Silver Dragon was the vice dean of the Mysterious Academy, Gustav.

Leonard wasn’t surprised at the sight.

Among the academy’s upper echelons, the “insider” must be Dean Gustav.

What surprised him was, wasn’t Gustav an eighth rank?

How could he be evenly matched in battle with the ninth-rank Old Man dean?

When he saw the [Sun Disc] surrounding the Silver Dragon, he understood.

This Old Man was also a remnant of the Sect of Light from the old era.

…

“So, the disc was indeed brought out…”

Leonard had not been sure whether Princess Sofia had obtained the [Sun Disc].

However, he thought she probably had.

Not through logical deduction, but intuition.

If the Lingster Emperor from the Sky-reaching Tower could send him the [JOKER] card, he could also help Sofia get that disc.

Some problems that appeared very complex to ordinary humans were transparent to those on higher levels.

Even ten thousand years ago, the Great Emperor’s vision might have foreseen the threat from the Dragon Descendants in the Southern Continent to the Card Master Civilization.

The emergence of that thing was a great benefit to the Card Master Civilization.

Only if the Southern Continent became more chaotic, the less pressure there would be for survival in the East Wilderness and the Old Continent.

His thoughts flashed through his mind.

Leonard had already run with the crowd to the outskirts of the academy.

A ninth-tier level battle can destroy worlds; even with a Defense Boundary, it couldn’t be completely blocked.

Moreover, the initiator was a vice dean who knew the academy extremely well.

To him, the barrier placements in the academy were as good as non-existent.

It appeared that Dean Zimmerman was purposely protecting the academy; hence no significant casualties occurred.

And because of his concerns, the battle was at a stalemate.

Still battling in the sky, amidst loud dragon roars mixed with anger.

“Gustav, do you know what you are doing? Breaking the sealing will have unimaginable consequences!”

“Damn it, you actually used the heretics’ power!”

“Zimmerman, my old friend, don’t be so naive. Hasn’t this scene played out in history before? Light is the only true god of the Dragon Clan… you are only loyal to a treacherous and despicable conniver…”

…

Some words seemed to be deliberately spoken for others to hear, echoing through the entire academy.

But those heretical statements containing massive information seemed to be deliberately interfered with by the academy side, intermittently heard.

Leonard had already guessed most of it.

The Dragon God of the Sect of Light from ten thousand years ago was indeed still alive;

Now, the Dragon God Airel behind the Holy Tribunal ended the old era, playing some disgraceful role in the process.

However, none of these were important now.

Leonard watched the exploding battle between the two, his eyes tracing lines of destiny.

He liked the excitement.

He liked the kind of commotion that stirred the world even more.

…

The academy’s top-tier experts didn’t just include Dean Zimmerman; powerful presences soon filled the sky, joining in the assault on the Silver Dragon.

Under normal circumstances, this sort of rebellion wouldn’t have lasted long.

But clearly, the key to this disturbance wasn’t the battle.

It was the… Sealing!

The earthquake continued.

Amid the battle

and under the stunned gazes of everyone… the mountain collapsed!

Yes!

It was the peak near the Sky-reaching Tower behind the academy that collapsed before everyone’s eyes!

After that, a terrifying aura that was hard to describe swept across miles.

When everyone took a closer look, within that collapsed mountain, a gigantic arm emerged.

It seemed like the severed limb of some colossal being, just a forearm and a hand, stretched over a hundred meters.

Black Death Air billowed like flames from the arm, a high-ranking pressure overwhelmed everyone that didn’t belong to any race.

“Is this the energy source of the Sky-reaching Tower?”

Leonard Churchill watched the arm break through the ground, his eyes twitching inexplicably.

He had initially thought it was some Divine Material from the Church of Light, but it now seemed otherwise.

The academy’s instructors were also dumbfounded, clearly unaware.

As the arm emerged, it was as if pent-up resentment from countless years burst forth. It struck the ground forcefully, creating a cataclysmic rumble.

In an instant, a hundred-meter-wide fissure split open at the center of the Royal Academy.

The fissure stretched miles in the blink of an eye, until a top-tier instructor blocked in front of the students, finally stopping the shockwave.

Seeing this, Leonard Churchill suddenly understood how the Abyssal Rifts came about.

Then, he turned and ran!

He had thought the distance was safe enough to watch the show, but this scene proved he was far from correct.

In this level of combat, even spectating was deadly.

Once the gigantic arm broke the seal, the academy’s top experts had no choice but to focus their attention on it.

Should the arm continue to ravage, the entire academy would be destroyed.

And if it were to escape, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Transformed into a Silver Dragon, Gustav felt the pressure lighten instantly; he seized the moment to flap his wings and swiftly vanished into the distance.

Seeing this, Leonard Churchill knew the situation had temporarily settled.

But this was only the beginning.

The Light Believers had escaped, and the situation in the Southern Continent was about to heat up.

…

On the other side, taking advantage of the students fleeing the academy, David also sprinted away.

He was a slave, with no background or power, and even if he tried to escape, the Slave Collar on his neck would reveal his identity as a runaway slave.

Any passerby could capture him and return him to the Landon Family for a bounty.

Initially, even if fleeing, he couldn’t possibly go into Giant Spirit City.

But David firmly believed in the words of “Allen” before.

He sprinted all the way to the Northern District.

After searching for a while, North City Road No. 33 was an area frequented by Adventurers.

Upon getting there, David cautiously checked that no one was paying attention to him before sneaking into a small inn labeled “Adventurer’s Home.”

He didn’t initially know what “Allen” had asked him to do here.

He randomly chose an alley, slipped over the wall, and by some coincidence, he encountered someone.

Before jumping over the wall, he hadn’t sensed any presence.

But oddly, just after entering, he discovered someone who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

David was still tense, being a runaway slave.

But the next moment, as he saw the person’s face clearly in the courtyard, he suddenly realized something.

Though the appearance had changed, upon seeing that face, David instantly overlapped it with the demeanor of “Allen” seen previously in the Trial Space.

That look in his eyes, as if piercing through all truths… almost exactly the same!

David’s eyes filled with incredulity as he tentatively asked, “Are you… are you Allen?”

“Well…”

Leonard Churchill held a light smile at the corner of his mouth, pausing for a moment.

This question was a bit complicated to explain.

He thought for a second and said, “I am ‘Allen,’ but ‘Allen’ is not me.”

“???”

David, hearing this convoluted statement, was full of question marks.

Leonard Churchill watched his astonished expression, smiled slightly, and didn’t expect a pure warrior to understand such matters, indicating, “Sit down. If you want to know, I’ll explain…”

Watching this scene, he inexplicably thought back to the first time he met Noah Wright in person.

As if time had repeated itself, a magical feeling.
