Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 1548: Chapter 472: The Ancient Giant Hand Suppressed Under the Sky-reaching Tower_2 Chapter 1548: Chapter 472: The Ancient Giant Hand Suppressed Under the Sky-reaching Tower_2 Beneath this academy, there was an eighty percent chance that some sort of Divine Material was sealed.

And the seal in the Trial Space wasn’t just for containing Seadinth.

That pyramid was also part of the sealing loop set by Emperor Lanlingster, sealing a more terrifying existence within the Abyssal Rift.

Leonard Churchill had no idea what it was.

But he vaguely guessed it had something to do with the Titan Beasts in the Silver Fir Forest.

However, he was not surprised.

The history of this Cavern World was like a multi-layered cake, uncovering layer upon layer.

It was not at all strange that some ancient Gods were sealed beneath the land.

…

The academy’s instructors also rushed into the room hastily.

Seeing the heavily damaged students, the instructors also became panicked.

The rescue team entered, and the scene turned into chaos.

“Parge, how come you’re the only one back, your teammates, where are they? What, they’re all dead? What on earth happened?”

“How could so many people die? What… did someone trigger an S-level scenario?”

“It was triggered by someone from the Red Dragon Royal Family? Where is Princess Sofia? Who proctored this trial… where are they?”

“What! The background of the Trial Space you participated in was ‘Altranc Civilization’? Damn it, who put that forbidden item in the Sky-reaching Tower!”

…

The students knew nothing.

The Sky-reaching Tower trials had been ongoing for a thousand years, and this was the first time such an accident had occurred.

Although the instructors did not know what had happened, after a brief interrogation, they gradually realized that a major problem had arisen.

Leonard Churchill, seeing all this, lost most of the sharp light in his eyes.

Like formatting himself, his core Will was stripped away, and he once again became “Allen.”

If possible, he would still need to stay in the Royal Academy for a while, this identity still needed to be used.

The only ones who knew the inside story of his doppelganger were Sophia and her two companions.

But Leonard Churchill didn’t think they would be so bored as to snitch on him.

The doppelganger could remain safe for a while longer.

…

The Landon Family had two teams in the same space this time; aside from Leonard Churchill’s team, there was also Young Master Sack’s squad.

Seeing only four people from Leonard Churchill’s team come out, anyone could guess what they might have experienced.

Sack also knew that Leonard Churchill’s team had gone to explore the forest at night, so he was even more curious about what exactly had happened.

And that instructor from the academy who had been wanting to investigate the previous assassination attempt, Chiltern, also cast an inquiring look.

Leonard Churchill remained calm as usual.

After all, the doppelganger’s cognitive functions had been restricted, and no matter the Secret Skill, no information could be extracted.

And David seemed a bit nervous.

Because he was now the only one who knew the insider information.

But fortunately, at that moment, the anticipated conflict finally erupted.

…

Leonard Churchill didn’t think that after causing such a commotion, Princess Sophia’s backers would be able to get away with it easily.

So they were bound to cause chaos.

As he had expected.

Suddenly, like an earthquake, the entire Sky-reaching Tower began to shake with a thunderous rumble.

Keep in mind, the Sky-reaching Tower was one of the Royal Academy’s most important buildings.

To say nothing of whether the energy waves of an earthquake could penetrate the various Defense Boundaries of the academy,
Even if they truly did penetrate, it would never cause such a tower, transformed from fragments of a Divine Artifact, to shake so violently.

And the tremors became more and more intense, as if the whole tower was about to collapse.

This scene not only caused the students to panic one by one.

Even the instructors didn’t know what was happening.

Right at that moment, the emergency broadcast in the tower blared urgently.

“Emergency bulletin! Emergency bulletin! Please all class instructors lead their respective classes to the emergency shelters immediately…”

“Emergency bulletin! Emergency bulletin…”

…

With that announcement, everyone realized something terrible was happening.

The students had all undergone emergency drills before; scenarios needing the “emergency shelter” were likely due to a cataclysmic disaster at the academy.

Who would dare?

The academy had top-tier Ninth Rank powerhouses.

But it was happening.

Which meant that the situation was very bad.

Upon hearing the broadcast, the scene became even more chaotic.

No one dared to take any chances; the instructors quickly called for the students to leave the Sky-reaching Tower.

The academy had never faced such an urgent situation before; everyone was in a state of panic.

Leonard Churchill and David, carrying the still unconscious Serli and Garfield, also surged out of the Sky-reaching Tower amid the chaotic crowd.

As they exited the tower, the first thing that met their eyes was the brilliant Barrier.

Not just Leonard Churchill’s group of students, but even the majority of the instructors were seeing the academy’s Defense Array fully deployed for the first time.

That overwhelming wave of Magic air swept over them, and everyone felt a strong sense of crisis.

Moreover, what was even more striking was that the defense barrier in the sky kept exploding with brilliant energy clusters, as if someone was fighting.

No one knew who was fighting, but they were definitely fighting,
And it was intense.

And the ground’s shaking grew even worse.

Leonard Churchill and his fellow Trialists had only just come out when terrifying cracks began appearing all over the ground, as if something was rolling around underground.

And the position of the Sky-reaching Tower was right behind the hillside, not far above was the snow line.

The intense vibrations caused the snow that had accumulated over countless years on the Titan Mountains to rush down, mixed with massive amounts of rocks and debris, like an avalanche.

And the collapsing momentum became more and more violent.

It looked as though the whole mountain was about to collapse.

“Could it be that ‘that thing’ sealed beneath the Sky-reaching Tower is coming out?”

Leonard Churchill mumbled to himself as he quickly grasped what was happening.

After all, the Ariel Royal Academy was the Holy Church’s territory, with various Restrictive methods and countless experts.
