Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 1537

Chapter 1537: Chapter 469: Originally Wanted to Interact with You All as an Ordinary Person_3 Chapter 1537: Chapter 469: Originally Wanted to Interact with You All as an Ordinary Person_3 A punch landed on the vampire’s chest.

“Thud,” it sounded, as if hitting iron, immovable.

The burly vampire just sneered coldly.

He wasn’t unable to dodge; a move of that speed posed no threat of a sneak attack at his tier.

His not killing immediately was just a minor amusement in combat.

The vampire’s feet flexed, easily snapping the vines bound around his legs, and at the same time, he swung a hand-chop toward David who was still hanging midair, taken aback.

But an unexpected scene occurred.

Despite David’s desperate attempt to dodge, the hand-chop still grazed his face.

Just as he was about to be ruthlessly slain, suddenly, he felt his body being yanked by a mysterious force.

It was this pulling force that allowed David to narrowly escape the lethal hand-chop.

The burly vampire was momentarily surprised but quickly realized what had happened, turning his gaze toward Leonard Churchill who had reached out with one hand.

The “Hand of the Mage” he had used was nothing sophisticated, merely a common First Tier magic.

However, what surprised him was the timing of its release.

If he had waited to see his own move before casting, there would have been no chance to save that sneak-attacking human. So, had this guy predicted his move in advance?

Even a Third Order Vampire was surprised, let alone David and Serli who witnessed this scene.

They knew Leonard always managed to create miracles, but that move was even stronger than before.

They couldn’t pinpoint what was off but didn’t have time to ponder further.

What was more important was an eerie scene that unfolded in their group.

…

The opportunity Serli and David had created with their lives was to see if Jessica could sustain teammate Gale a bit longer.

After all, the “Resurrection Foul Ritual” could revive the dead, even if the heart was crushed, as long as help arrived promptly.

However, they were disappointed.

“Jessica” showed no intention of saving anyone.

She stood emotionless, watching everything unfold before her, her eyes devoid of sadness due to her teammate’s death, marked only by indifference, while still muttering some mysterious incantation.

Serli didn’t understand and thought she was frightened, anxiously shouting, “Jessica, be careful!”

Jessica remained unmoved.

Leonard looked on, muttering to himself, “Not pretending anymore, huh…”

He clearly knew what “Jessica” meant by bringing down several teammates.

No matter who she was, with only a First Tier body, it was almost impossible for her to resolve this plot alone. Even if she could just hold them off for a moment, the value of these teammates was sufficient.

Just like now.

Jessica, taking advantage of the opportunity created by her teammates, employed a ritual similar to the White Family’s God Summoning Skill, and her aura grew increasingly powerful.

Her gaze never fell on the vampires but was fixed intently on the Sun Disc.

Serli noticed her abnormality, “Jessica… you?”

But reality didn’t give them time to ponder.

In an instant, the Sun Wheel atop the pyramid slowly rose to its highest point, the gathered beams of light suddenly dispersed, instantly illuminating the entire Seal Space.

Dozens of vampires were completely exposed to the sunlight, frantically covering themselves with their hands, but were still being scorched by the sunlight.

Even Isabel and that Third Order Blood Clan were smoldering all over their bodies.

Although it looked like they weren’t going to die immediately, their blood energy and dark powers were suppressed to the extreme at that moment.

Leonard sighed in relief upon seeing this.

Now, they finally had the credentials to combat the vampires.

“Sun?”

But for some reason, he inexplicably found this scene familiar.

When Noah Wright eradicated the Crimson Sect in Sinless City, he had also used the sun.

And, the time he visited the Alternate Dimension “Thousand Army Surrounding City,” he saw a sun from three thousand years ago at Taren Imperial Capital Behemoth that felt very similar.

Before he could ponder further, the battle suddenly reached its climax.

The sunlight from the wheel grew stronger, and the vampires knew the situation was dire.

The situation necessitated a quick resolution.

The burly vampire no longer cared about Leonard and the others, turning instead to attack the members of the Red Dragon Royal Family with Isabel.

This left Leonard and his group suddenly free of pressure.

Serli and David came back to their senses, realizing they were covered in cold sweat, having nearly walked a tightrope over death.

Initially, they were just supposed to watch the vampires clash fiercely with the Red Dragon Royal Family.

However, the situation developed beyond their expectations.

Before they could catch their breath, Serli ran to where Gale had his chest pierced, and David intended to check on Garfield in the pile of rocks.

But then, Jessica’s cold command sounded in their ears: “Now, I, as Bishop of the Holy See, order you to stop the Red Dragon heretics from seizing that heretical Relic at all costs!”

“…”

Hearing this, Serli froze, thinking: Now is not the time to save people, but to fight instead?

He incredulously looked at his once close teammate, his expression extremely uncomfortable.

But a moment later, he suddenly understood something – another soul was inside Jessica!

Was this… a Soul Switch Secret Skill?

Serli wasn’t sure exactly what it was, but whoever Jessica was now didn’t matter anymore.

The Bishop’s command from the Holy See even trumped Kingship, which even the Three Royal Families had to obey.

Even if they disobeyed, once they left, they would definitely be wanted by the Holy See.
