Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 602: Chapter 205: The Settlement of a Bountiful Harvest

Leonard Churchill had walked the line between life and death before making his way back.

The moment everything went black before his eyes, he watched in disbelief as he “resurrected.”

The enlightenment notification indicated that the spatial barrier was broken, and those Demons shrouded with Black Fire had vanished.

“Hey… looks like I bet right.”

With slightly squinted eyes, Leonard’s heart remained undisturbed.

It seemed like he had grown accustomed to it.

Glancing to the side, he met Camilla’s pale blue eyes and nodded slightly in greeting.

The two old friends, long unseen, said nothing; a nod was enough to convey everything.

With the restraint of the Hell’s Knights gone, Prince Sane knew he was no match and, though unwilling, fled.

Camilla wasn’t in the best shape to give chase.

Besides, they couldn’t have caught up anyway.

It seemed the Spatial Will thought that since Leonard and his companions had acquired the most critical Plot Item for this “The third Holy Grail War” prematurely, there was no challenge left.

The Twisted Light Gate had appeared in the blink of an eye.

With that, the storyline of the Alternate Dimension “Battle of Ironforge” came to an abrupt end.

Seeing this, Leonard took a long, deep breath: “Phew…”

He had been on edge the entire time before.

Now that he returned to his senses, he also felt that the Holy Grail was indeed not easy to obtain.

The three members of this makeshift team each had extraordinary skills, but also had several close calls that nearly led to their complete annihilation.

Learning “Celestial Godfall,” a Forbidden Technique not even recorded in any Classic Books, and gambling one’s life even after learning it,…

was nearly impossible for anyone else to succeed.

This gave Leonard the feeling that there were too many coincidences.

Without any one member of their trio, it would have been impossible to obtain the Holy Grail.

Without Noah Wright, not only would they have failed to find the Hero’s Tomb, they wouldn’t have deciphered the mysteries of its rules;

Without Camilla, they wouldn’t have withstood such powerful enemies;

Without Leonard, they couldn’t count on getting the Holy Grail at all.

It was as if invisible threads of destiny had brought them together.

But coincidences?

Leonard didn’t think it was all by chance.

He thought of Tracy Garcia’s mysterious mother.

His decision to explore this Alternate Dimension was based on that “Auntie Garcia’s” suggestion.

She was the High Priest of the Orlan Dynasty, reputed to be an expert in all kinds of Divination and Prophecy Secret Skills.

She seemed to have foreseen some inexplicable Cause and Effect.

Leonard didn’t dwell on it much.

Because at that moment, inside the vast Hero Tomb, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.

“Ah… it’s resolved then…”

Leonard turned his head and saw Mushroomhead getting up from the ground.

…

Leonard watched as Noah Wright, who had just resurrected, twitched the corner of his eye inexplicably.

Although he suspected this guy must not have died,

seeing someone who was a corpse just moments ago now bouncing around full of life, he couldn’t help but be utterly astonished.

Not a trace of the wounds remained, not even a bloodstain…

While Leonard had seen many types of immortality, he had never witnessed such outrageous resurrection magic.

Just now, Extraordinary Traits had gone completely out of control, confirming a physical death, so how did the resurrection occur?

“Could it be some kind of Revival Prop Card?”

He had once used a “Substitute Strawman,” exempting him from a mortal wound.

But Noah’s situation was evidently more advanced.

The guy not only had no injuries but could also choose the timing of his resurrection?

The whole thing felt very strange.

It was like…

Like an NPC had died and respawned as a brand new, identical NPC.

Leonard also guessed that this must be related to Noah’s Card Master Sequence ability. Initially, he thought asking would be impolite, but was still too curious, and so involuntarily shot a curious glance his way.

Camilla, though expressionless, flashed a hidden emotion in her crystals eyes, clearly also having never seen anything like it.

Noah, a bit embarrassed by their staring, walked over, scratching the back of his head shyly, and said in a modest tone, “Just a little trick…”

Leonard’s eyes twitched slightly at the comment.

That’s still considered a little trick?

The guy was really outrageous, and combined with his modest expression, his mystique and prestige instantly soared.

But since he didn’t elaborate, Leonard didn’t press the matter.

Noah also turned his attention to the Holy Grail in Camilla’s hand, appearing very intrigued, “Wow… finally got it.”

…

Leonard cast an equally curious glance as well.

The Holy Water capable of restoring life span, this Grail’s tier must be incredibly high.

But they had been evasive about the Holy Grail before.

Unexpectedly, Noah started explaining, “In addition to helping one to comprehend the law of kingship, this Holy Grail has another more important use. I once deciphered an ancient document and found direct evidence that this Xismark Holy Grail is directly linked to breaking through to the ‘Legendary Realm’ of a card master. Although we still don’t know exactly how it works, at least it’s now in our possession.”

So that’s how it is.

Upon hearing this, Leonard then understood.

He wasn’t interested in kingship, and the “Legendary Realm” was too far a concept; the Holy Grail was too high-end for him to utilize for now.

He didn’t pursue the matter further and started to deal with the aftermath of the battlefield.

Before exiting the settlement, there were still things to do.

Ignoring Camilla and Noah who were examining the Holy Grail, Leonard walked straight to the corpse of Red Dragon Yuri.

There was another treasure chest here, flickering with enchanting light.

He had encountered it once before and had obtained a piece of Tyrant Body Secret Method from it.

Leonard was quite looking forward to what might come out of this chest.

Red Dragon Yuri had been killed by Camilla, so he didn’t hesitate to open it.

As his fingers touched the chest’s lock, it clicked open, and a blinding flash of golden light shone forth.
