Chapter 1824: After the revision: Chapter 553 9th Tier Strikes! Moon God Panics..._2

It seemed like even the slightest disturbance would put both parties in the duel in a dangerous situation.

It was evident to everyone that the outcome of this encounter would soon be decided.

The members of the Herlands Family were extremely tense.

If Ray won, they could take away the mechanical equipment without facing any punishment from the King;

But if he lost... the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, the eyes of several high-ranking members of the Herlands Family were filled with gravity.

What no one noticed was that the eyes of Jolin, the Forbidden Curse Master, were flickering with a strange light.

Especially when he saw that the figure in the lightning had not fallen, yet his own grandson was about to be backfired by the Forbidden Curse.

The evil thought in Jolin’s mind became uncontrollable: Should he take advantage of the opponent’s serious injury and launch a sneak attack?

As an Eighth Order Card Master, he knew better than anyone that this was the best chance to sneak attack.

If it were a frontal battle, that "Leonard Churchill" would never put himself in such a dangerous situation.

But now, suppressing the realm duels was like a Knight taking off his heavy armor. Both sides were fighting each other hard, and even a slight external force could severely wound the opponent.

Although the honor of a Knight made Jolin ashamed of such actions, he could abandon everything for the sake of his family.

The upper limit of the dueling barrier was only Seventh Rank, and he could forcibly break in at this moment.

If he continued to hesitate... there would truly be no chance!

If they lost, everything the family worked for would be destroyed!

Even if the sneak attack didn’t achieve its expected result, as long as he could severely injure the opponent, everyone in the family could join in and might still be able to kill him...

Thinking of this, Jolin’s gaze turned cold, and he was about to take action.

However, out of nowhere, he felt someone watching him. Turning his head, he saw his sister Elsa looking his way.

This sister, who had grown up with him and knew him best, actually shook her head?

Jolin knew that Elsa had guessed his thoughts and was stopping him from launching the sneak attack.

But... if he didn’t make a move, the family would be finished!

Ray had used the Forbidden Curse but still couldn’t bring down the opponent, meaning he had lost the ability to continue fighting and had already lost!

However, in this exchange of glances, both siblings understood each other’s intentions.

Jolin looked into his sister’s firm eyes, not understanding why she wouldn’t allow him to strike, but this member of the Four King’s Knights decided to suppress his killing intention for now.

He thought, perhaps it was because of... that old friend?

Or... that exiled Princess?

No matter the reason, the moment of his hesitation had already cost him the opportunity.

Jolin sighed deeply and comforted himself: "I hope this is the right choice..."

Clan Leader Elsa looked at her brother’s dimmed eyes and felt a complex array of emotions.

She too was willing to sacrifice everything for the family.

But in that brief instant, a glance at her old friend guided her to make a decision of uncertain correctness.

Meanwhile, in the Gladiator Arena, though Leonard Churchill’s flesh was charred by the lightning, he still refrained from using power beyond his tier;

In contrast, Ray’s face looked ghostly pale under the lightning, struggling increasingly under the burden of the Forbidden Curse...

It was likely they would both suffer severe injuries.

No one knew who would persevere to the end.

However, before the high-ranking members of the Herlands Family could agonize further, the situation suddenly reversed!

While everyone’s eyes were on the two main figures in the duel, a ghost-like "third party" slipped into the barrier without obstruction, extending a jet-black hand towards Leonard Churchill’s back.

The opportunity for a sneak attack was fleeting, and before Forbidden Curse Master Jolin could launch his attack, the hidden figure couldn’t resist making a move.

....

Leonard Churchill only sensed the killing intention when the "third party" appeared at his back.

The assailant was exceptionally strong, catching even him off guard with such methods.

That black hand shattered the final layer of Protective Gang Air, with destructive power flooding his body.

Fortunately, he had predicted the timing and protected his vital points, but was still struck by the giant force on his back, sent flying with a "bang".

A streak of blood shot through the sky as he crashed into the rocks, making the ground shake.

Everyone watched in shock, not understanding what happened, only seeing a figure being flung away.

At this moment, Lenny finally reacted, shouting explosively: "Leonard Churchill, be careful!"

As he spoke, he shot dozens of cards from his hands, and the Mechanical Puppet Legion sprung into action, instantly entering combat mode.

With a glimpse of the dusty rubble, Lenny, enraged, glared fiercely at the Herlands Family members!

How could he not see that these despicable people had chosen to launch a sneak attack!

As a fellow member of the Four Royal Knight families, Lenny was utterly contemptuous of such behavior.

Clan Leader Elsa saw the accusing glare from her old friend, her expression instantly complicated, left without explanation.

However, she also found it strange: why had someone acted when she had already stopped it?

All eyes turned to the platform to look at the assailant who appeared there.

To everyone’s surprise, it was an unremarkable girl from the family named "Jillian".

Elsa wasn’t fooled; the one who could severely injure the Eighth Order must not be Jillian, but someone else in disguise.
