Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 1566

Chapter 1566: Chapter 477: Watching the Original Flood Gang Gambling Fight in Memory_3 Chapter 1566: Chapter 477: Watching the Original Flood Gang Gambling Fight in Memory_3 Leonard Churchill opened his eyes and realized he had come to a world that resembled a starry sky, filled with nothingness.

It was still the tea table in the room, but all around was emptiness.

Sophia Jones was lazily sitting opposite, sipping tea. She glanced at him and explained, “This is my spiritual world.”

Spiritual world?

Leonard was still somewhat confused.

But then, a magical scene unfolded.

The thought “What is this place?” had just emerged in his mind.

The next second, the scenery around him changed.

Leonard found himself in a luxurious mansion.

The architectural style was of the Eastern Wasteland Federation’s magical punk, and from the details of decoration, it seemed that the Family Head had a military background.

Leonard found himself by the window, looking down into the courtyard, where a little girl about six or seven years old, with her hair in a ponytail, was practicing her swordsmanship on a dummy.

Despite the sweat-soaked clothes, she was tirelessly happy, at an age when other children loved dolls, this little girl had already achieved a certain level of proficiency in swordsmanship.

Although young, that bit of vivacity was enough for even Leonard to consider her extremely talented.

Leonard thought this little girl looked familiar, but before he could think further, an old man with white hair, full of vigor, entered the courtyard.

The girl put down her sword and ran towards him cheerfully, “Grandfather, Grandfather…”

The Old Man picked up the little girl who rushed over and spun her around, “Oh, our Jones Family is going to have a Lady General in the future…”

At this point, Leonard realized who the man was, Bert Jones, the “Iron-Arm General.”

A legendary figure whose influence in the Federal Military once weighed heavily.

He was also Sophia Jones’s grandfather!

He understood the situation now.

As Leonard was pondering, a beautiful figure appeared out of nowhere beside him.

Sophia Jones stood next to him, looking at her younger self with eyes full of reflection, “This is my spiritual world… It also has everything about me.”

“…”

In an instant, Leonard understood why she had said this Secret Skill was only used with people she trusted.

Entering someone’s spiritual world could easily leave something behind or even alter some perceptions.

If it was not an absolutely trustworthy person, it would be very dangerous.

Moreover, as Sophia Jones said, this place had everything about her…

Meaning, Leonard could see some of her memories, thoughts, and worldview within her spiritual world.

No wonder she mentioned concerns about “personal privacy.”

To open one’s inner self to outsiders was not something that ordinary trust could achieve.

Sophia Jones looked at Leonard’s slightly astonished expression and instead smiled lightly, “How about it? Surprised?”

She had indeed had reservations before; after all, sharing such private matters was somewhat embarrassing.

But now, those complicated thoughts had dissipated.

Leonard’s frown turned into a self-deprecating smile, soon followed by a close-lipped smile, “Thank you.”

Sophia Jones knew what he was thanking her for, and she simply responded with a smile.

…

But precisely because he knew this was the other person’s spiritual world, Leonard was also curious about what Sophia Jones had gone through.

It was not a desire to pry into her privacy, but an instinctive curiosity.

This uncontrollable thought provoked another change in the surrounding scenery.

Leonard watched as the scene before him unfolded like a movie, scene after scene playing out.

He watched the girl grow up day by day amidst laughter, her features gradually taking on a valiant air.

Until one day, the scene suddenly grew dark.

The luxurious mansion turned into a sea of flames, and the little girl cried hysterically.

Leonard heard about this experience from Sophia Jones; her grandfather’s influence in the military was envied by the five great Senators, and he was later framed for war crimes.

The Old Man, for the sake of a million subordinates and their families, did not rebel but was persecuted to death.

Leonard then saw a beautiful woman taking the nine-year-old girl on a Neon train to a city full of steam spires and pipes.

He had been there; it was the City of Thieves, belonging to the White Family.

The woman pleaded desperately before a group of shadowy old men, wanting them to save the Jones Family and the little girl.

But all they met with was indifference and numbness.

The woman left with the girl, full of disappointment.

Once upon a time, the Jones Family was among the top powers in the Federation, but at that moment, no one would help, and no one could.

Later they were captured and thrown into prison.

The little girl was saved only because the Song Family paid a heavy bribe.

She witnessed her grandfather, her parents, and the men of her family being sentenced and then executed at the site.

That day, the girl cried the last tears of her life.

Even as a spectator, Leonard was overwhelmed with profound sadness watching that scene.

As if experiencing it himself, his spiritual world resonated.

He saw the helplessness and despair of the little girl.

Then the scene shifted again, and there she was in a camp in the wilderness.

By the campfire, the mysterious figure in a cloak was gently stroking her head, saying, “From today on, you are a member of the Revolutionary Army…”

These memories were indelible, so these fragments were incredibly vivid.

From then on, her life was nothing but training and fighting.

Later, as the girl grew stronger through daily grueling practice and war,
whenever she fought, she would pierce through the enemy ranks like a sharp blade, engaging in bloodthirsty combat.

The childishness in her features faded, replaced by a valiant and commanding presence, and eventually, she became the renowned Lady Valkyrie of the Eastern Wasteland — Sophia Jones.
