Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 1533: Chapter 468 Divine Artifact [Sun Wheel]_3 Chapter 1533: Chapter 468 Divine Artifact [Sun Wheel]_3 “In an instant, Leonard Churchill realized something, “The people from the Red Dragon Royal Family are here!”

Before, the information he bought from the information merchant mentioned that the “Black Spade 2” had fallen into the hands of the Red Dragon Royal Family.

He just didn’t expect it to be brought into the Trial Space.

As soon as the card appeared, a burst of spiritual light flashed behind it, and Leonard saw a person leap out from the shadow of Madam Mister.

Leonard recognized the secret skill again, “Black Spade 2 of the God Thief Sequence, exclusive Demon God Secret Skill–Divine Shadow?”

True to its name, a god’s shadow, unseen by mortals.

It was a top-tier concealment skill that could hide within a person’s shadow.

With the addition of some relics, it could even remain undetected by those several big ranks higher.

Clearly, the people from the Red Dragon Royal Family had used this secret skill to infiltrate Black Crow Castle successfully.

…

The change came too suddenly, the shadow that leapt from the card didn’t hesitate at all, and with a raise of his hand, he fired a “Black Spade 4” dark gold card into the void.

“Another Curse God Card? Heh, well prepared indeed…”

Seeing this, Leonard’s eyes twitched involuntarily.

It seemed that the person behind the scenes had really brought a lot of good things for this mission.

Indeed!

A power that could challenge the Ariel Empire would definitely not lack resources.

As soon as the “Black Spade 4” appeared, the Spirit Communication Array on it lit up, and about a dozen people appeared out of thin air.

“Spirit Communication Skill… I see.”

Leonard didn’t find it particularly novel.

He had considered this method before.

Remote spirit communication was one of the few methods that could quickly gather troops.

And using the “Curse God Card,” several summonses could be launched instantly, calling in a squad at a time.

But the problem was, this was a vampire lair.

This trial involved First Tier apprentices, how could they possibly face off against a vampire gang of at least two Third Tiers?

Leonard couldn’t figure it out, but the battle had already begun.

Beside him, Madam Mister cursed under her breath, “Damn it!”

She was furious at herself for failing to detect the enemy hiding in the shadows, and even more furious that these people intended to disrupt the Sacrifice Ceremony.

Seeing the sudden appearance of about a dozen people, Madam Mister instantly transformed into a fearsome vampire with a green face and sharp teeth, shouting, “Kill them!”

Witnessing this, Leonard feigned shock and stealthily took a half step back.

At that moment, a dozen Curse Cards exploded in the cave, the blinding Holy Light shining like the sun piercing through dark clouds, momentarily bursting forth.

The vampires, as if blinded by a flash bomb, immediately showed various expressions of terror on their faces.

The Holy Light, like strong acid, burned scorch marks onto the vampires’ skin.

Watching the offensive moves of those dozen people, Leonard had actually anticipated this scenario.

Apparently, not only his Landon Family squad was prepared with the Light Dispelling Technique, but the people from the Red Dragon Royal Family also had it.

However, those guys hadn’t found it in the plot.

They had brought it from outside the space.

Clearly, these people knew what they would encounter here and had prepared everything beforehand.

…

“Sizzling…”

The Holy Light instantly dispelled the Blood Mist and illuminated the entire space.

Leonard could not avoid it either.

Luckily, he had just taken that half step back, allowing Madam Mister to block most of the Holy Light.

Otherwise, that hit would have turned him, being a First Tier vampire, into ashes.

But this place was indeed the stronghold of the vampires.

Leonard looked at the burn scars on his arm, visibly healing.

The surrounding air, rich in Divinity, was the best healing medicine; here, as long as vampires weren’t killed instantly, it was impossible to kill them completely.

Thus, Leonard was certain that people from the Red Dragon Royal Family wouldn’t opt for a direct confrontation and immediately concluded, “They are after the Saintess!”

If he could think of this, Madam Mister, the centuries-old vampire, certainly could as well.

She hadn’t noticed anything wrong with “Nikola’s” instinctive flinch earlier, especially since he was a backup God Descending Vessel and couldn’t afford to die in battle.

Thinking this, Madam Mister shouted fiercely, “Protect the sacrifice!”

Hearing this, Leonard glanced over the entire battle scene and instantly realized that the person hiding in the shadow hadn’t shown themselves yet.

And the clever aspect of the “Divine Shadow” secret skill was that it allowed the spellcaster to hide in any shadow.

Thinking this, Leonard’s eyes narrowed slightly as he muttered to himself, “Hey, if that’s the case, let’s give you guys a hand…”

He didn’t hesitate and turned towards the blood pool.

Those people were after the Saintess, and now the shadow needed a medium to hide.

And Leonard was planning on giving them that help!

Because the disruption by the Red Dragon Royal Family’s people was also beneficial for him.

…

In that moment of thought, Leonard had already rushed to the stone platform in the middle of the blood pool.

From this distance, he clearly saw the golden-haired girl who had been stripped bare on the blood pool.

Hmm… not too big, not too small, nice figure.

She emanated an aura of holiness and purity, and with the aid of Holy Light, she seemed like white jade undisturbed by any contamination amidst the blood.

Leonard took only a glance, then quickly retreated.

He didn’t want to be casually slain as a minor adversary.

Just as he retreated in an explosion of movement, a miraculous scene unfolded!

A fatal flash of cold light crossed through the void.

Had Leonard not moved, that flash of cold light would have cleanly severed his neck.

This seemingly anticipatory evasion also elicited a surprised gasp from the person in the void.

But she didn’t take another shot.

Because she didn’t have the time.

Leonard plunged into the blood pool, only then knowing he was safe.
