Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 1616: Chapter 490 Moon Wheel Rampage_4 Chapter 1616: Chapter 490 Moon Wheel Rampage_4 During the Demon Beast’s siege on the city, the Holy Church’s people were already screening the camp for suspicious personnel, and it seemed they had found some.

In both the east and the south of the camp, battles erupted simultaneously.

“Bang!”

The intense blast wave sent the knight in the Fluorescent Armor flying into the air, as several high-tier Bloodsucking Vampires with wings soared into the sky from the eastern tent area.

A massive nine-pointed star array lit up in the sky, and the blood energy filling the city became their best supplement.

Upon seeing the leading vampire who was still beautiful even after her Transformation, Leonard Churchill exclaimed in surprise, “Has Madam Mister become this powerful?”

At a glance, she was at least Seventh Rank.

That makes sense; after living for over a hundred thousand years, her powers are not to be underestimated.

Not only those high-tier Vampires were rising up as if signaling each other, but among the Adventurers fighting the bats in the camp, several hundreds also Transformed into Vampires and joined the fray.

Leonard Churchill had seen Madam Mister before, so he wasn’t surprised by her taking action.

Moreover, not only did the camp have experts from the Holy Church and the Three Great Kingdoms, but there was also that Red Robed Archbishop Fedor in the Magic Tower.

Reuel Bible is not showing up, probably because he can’t stir up much trouble.

However, at this moment, a bright light suddenly flared within the camp.

In the sky, a blinding sun rose up.

Seeing this, Leonard Churchill whispered to himself, “Did the Holy Church make their move…”

His eyes sharpened as he saw a figure in black robes stand beneath the sun.

It was none other than the former deputy head of the Royal Academy’s Mysterious Academy, Gustav, who had earlier defected!

The bait was thrown, and seeing the fish on the hook, it was time to cast the net.

Perhaps waiting precisely for these people, an elderly man in a bright red Magic Robe flew out from the Tower, roaring, “You are seeking your own death! Everyone, follow me and besiege these heretics!”

His authoritative command resounded through the entire camp.

Adventurers then realized that it was “heretics” causing trouble.

Half bizarrely Crimson, half scorchingly hot sun.

A great battle was on the verge of erupting.

Leonard Churchill finally understood why Elder Clinton chose this critical moment to slip away.

Battling at that level of mastery was much more dangerous inside the camp than outside.

But Leonard Churchill couldn’t shake the feeling that things weren’t as simple as they appeared.

Reuel Bible still hadn’t shown up; the Holy Church’s coffin hadn’t made an appearance, and the Church of Light, which went after the ‘bait’, hadn’t shown up either…

But now wasn’t the time to think about these things.

Leonard Churchill didn’t care about anything else and twisted in place, leaping onto the city wall.

Sophia Jones and the officers followed closely behind. Before the people on the wall could react, they had already dashed out of the city.

Almost at the same moment, a “boom” sounded behind them, and a mushroom cloud erupted.

Upon a closer look, the Ninth-Order Magic Tower… had exploded!

The violent tremors, accompanied by the terrifying energy spill, sent shock waves that knocked down most of the buildings inside the camp.

Everyone in the camp, witnessing this scene, stood with wide eyes, at a loss for what to do.

The Magic Tower wasn’t only a weapon that could threaten top-tier Demon Beasts; more importantly, it was the central defensive hub of the entire camp.

With the tower destroyed, it meant they had completely lost the barrier that held back the tide of Beasts.

The previously hidden Demon Beast Lords within the bat swarms also revealed themselves at this moment, furiously charging over.

The Magic Tower just now had slain numerous Demon Beasts, acting as a perfect “hate magnet”. Staying in the camp now meant they would inevitably attract the focused fire of the Beasts.

At this moment, Leonard Churchill and the few people by his side realized why he wanted to run just now.

Even though they only gained such a small head start, it might be the key to their survival.

Several flying Demon Beast Lords arrived in the blink of an eye, and the battlefield was already in complete chaos.

Although Leonard Churchill and his group had scaled the city wall and had to face the first wave of Demon Beasts like a flood, fortunately, their chosen exit from the city cleverly avoided those Lord-level creatures.

The risk was still significant, but definitely not as great as staying in the camp!

“Quick, move!”

Leonard Churchill led the group headlong into the swarm of bats like a tidal wave.

The tens of thousands of bats around them were so dense that it seemed as if even the air couldn’t flow properly.

With monsters right up in one’s face, both poison and area-effective Spells could easily hurt teammates.

‘Deadly Poison Doctor’ Bonnie and ‘Blaster’ Rosin had their methods greatly limited; ‘Holy Hammer’ Sam was just a tank, and the few dozen bats he killed were not even enough to pick his teeth with; assassin Uncle East’s slicing could barely kill any…

The best strategy was still those with targeted attacks.

John Charlie’s Sword Air was fierce, slashing madly, splattering blood and limbs all over.

But even then, the number of bats encircling them didn’t decrease at all.

It was just like what Bonnie said before; with this number, even his Demon Sword [Night Whale Kill] would wear out before killing them all.

Sophia Jones couldn’t go all out either; any leak of energy would not only attract high-tier Demon Beasts but also the experts hidden by the Holy Church.

Now if they wanted to escape, the less noise, the better.

Those bats were still constantly devouring any Curse Power they leaked…

They didn’t know where to run, nor had any idea what to do next in this situation.

Neither Leonard Churchill nor Sophia Jones knew.

They only knew that with Elder Clinton in their team, they at least had one anchor for survival.

But while Elder Clinton might live, it wasn’t necessarily the case for the rest.

If they continued to be deadlocked like this, there was a high probability that they would be exhausted to death.

Bonnie quickly noticed the problem and reminded, “Charlie, watch your consumption, don’t create such a vast range of Sword Qi Domain.”

A Domain consumed a lot of Curse Power, and if kept open like this, a Sixth Order Card Master wouldn’t last long.

“What should we do then?”

John Charlie also felt helpless and said, “If we let these bats get close, they will suck our Curse Power, and it will become even more troublesome!”

The trouble with these [Hell Bats] lay in this; they were not high-ranked, and normally wouldn’t pose a big threat to high-tier card masters.

But not only did they suck blood, they also absorbed Curse Power; if not stopped, they could drain a person in minutes.

Everyone in the team was showing signs of anxiety.

Even Sophia Jones was slightly frowning, thinking in her head if there was a better method to break through.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Leonard Churchill and her gaze suddenly softened.

Because at that moment, Leonard Churchill suddenly took out a special Relic — [Thousand Feather Moon Wheel: Waxing Crescent].

Before others understood what this Relic was, the metallic Silver Moon suddenly “exploded into scales.”

On closer inspection, those scales turned into strands of extremely Sharp blades, instantly forming a Sword Storm that flew into the surrounding bat swarm.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…” Silver flashes twinkled, falling like raindrops.

The efficiency was so high that it cleared a large area around them in an instant.

Seeing this scene, everyone simultaneously cast astonished glances, admiring yet confused by Leonard Churchill’s utterly relaxed demeanor: Can it really be done like this? This Mental Power flying knife, how come it’s different from the others?
