Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 646: Chapter 216 Study Room

It wasn’t one card, but two.

After the convergence of the Extraordinary Traits,

not only the Profession Card [Catastrophe Golem] appeared on Queen Catherine’s corpse, but also her Legendary Mark card [Spade 9 – Calamity Bearer] was deciphered along with it.

It wasn’t too surprising.

This Queen of Orlan had merged with only the highest Quality cards that her tier could integrate.

Both the Mark and the Profession Card structures were very stable, and with a rich Extraordinary Traits, the probability of being analyzed was much higher than that of the cards merged by the ordinary people.

Leonard Churchill had no particular thoughts about that invaluable Legendary devil mark.

But looking at [Catastrophe Golem], his train of thought became active.

This was a Profession Card that had never appeared on the market, a gem exclusive to the Orlan Royal Family.

Two hundred years ago, the Orlan Dynasty collapsed, and the Federal Government was established.

This political change, from a certain perspective, was like splitting the family wealth among the nouveau riche.

It seemed like the wealth of the nouveau riche was divided, but in reality, those Old Era Remnants had transferred most of the good stuff, which had been inherited for thousands of years, in advance.

Now that these remnants of the Orlan Royal Family had revealed themselves, these treasures were once again emerging in the world.

At least tonight, Leonard had an eye-opening experience thanks to Queen Catherine.

“Dark Gold Quality…”

Leonard’s pupils constricted slightly.

This was his first time seeing a card of this Quality.

Dark Gold Quality could be described as the cream of Gold, or a downgraded version of Legend, rare and elusive.

Moreover, it’s an Original template.

There’s no need to even talk about the basic attributes, they were definitely maxed out.

Otherwise, Queen Catherine as a Professional wouldn’t have been able to withstand the contamination of the Angel Wings.

Of course, the most important thing is the Profession Ability that comes with the card itself.

Although this is a bloody, incomplete card, unable to see the specific Professional enhancement.

But Leonard had read the “Card Master Encyclopedia,” and he had heard of this “Catastrophe Sequence.”

Although it’s always said in the Card Master World, “There’s no strongest Sequence, only the strongest card master.”

But in reality, there’s a common belief that high tier Sequences usually possess greater combat power and more bizarre Professional Abilities.

This [Spade Nine – Catastrophe] already belongs to a high tier Profession.

It is said that after integration, one could gain control over the real powers of Catastrophe.

For example: earthquakes, volcanoes, storms, extreme cold, city burning, plagues, famine…

The use of Fire Series Forbidden Curse by Catherine, as seen before, was a capability of this Professional Sequence.

It is said that the spells of this Sequence could be commonly understood as “Mystery version of Elemental Spells.”

“What a great card…”

Leonard looked at it and truly coveted it.

Although reaching Fourth Tier was still far off, and he hadn’t decided on a direction to advance,

the ability to control Catastrophe was overwhelmingly tempting.

Being a JOKER, he didn’t need to worry about containment issues.

This card naturally matched him perfectly.

…

Camilla sealed the Angel Wings and then wrapped them up completely with a scroll of Curse script.

The main storyline of this Poker Round was nearing its conclusion.

Snow White, with the help of the Knight, defeated the Poison Queen and advanced to become the Ice Snow Queen.

Leonard also just realized that after killing Catherine, the aura on Camilla had become noticeably more profound.

It seemed that it wasn’t just revenge; this assassination also corresponded with a special type of “Advancement Ritual.”

Perhaps this was the meaning of the card game?

But now was not the time to consider other things.

The story was coming to an end, and so was this card game.

Although they had successfully killed their target, this was after all inside Lion City.

Outside the barrier, they were likely already surrounded by heavy forces.

The Orlan Dynasty didn’t just send Queen Catherine; the New King and many court masters were also in the city.

Leonard had previously thought that the Orlan side was really just the Old Era Remnants described by the Federation officials—a regal lineage in hiding, unable to fight, hiding here and there.

But now he had changed his mind.

Having seen Tracy Garcia’s mother and the Earth-series Old Man who was raging next door, there were at least two Legends on the surface.

With this in mind, top powerhouses among the Orlan Remnants were definitely numerous.

The Queen’s death would inevitably trigger a counterattack at any cost.

The Thirteen Masked Knights were after all a small independent organization, and it was unwise to directly confront such a behemoth.

The leader, “Pursuer of Light,” apparently had planned for this as well.

Now that the person was killed, they had to escape.

…

As soon as Camilla finished sealing the Angel Wings, the “Pursuer of Light” by her side pulled out a card and exclaimed, “Spell: Five Senses Confusion.”

As soon as his words fell, the Poker Round’s barrier dimmed, looking like it would collapse.

At the same time, “bang” “bang” “bang”… Explosions resounded throughout the banquet hall.

War Fog instantly enveloped the entire scene, and in an instant, it was so thick that one could barely see their own hands.

This was not ordinary fog; even hearing, smell, and other senses were limited to a very small range. The visuals were so clouded with fog that the mind became hazy.

If such an intense feeling was perceived by Leonard in his werewolf transformation, imagine how it must be for others.

But this “smoke bomb” maneuver was to be expected.

Just as Leonard was considering how he should escape, a cold aura approached from close by.

In the fog, Camilla whispered urgently beside his ear, “Leonard, I’ll borrow the crucifix for a moment. The [Angel’s Remains] won’t let this go. We’re surrounded outside, we’ll draw the enemy’s fire, and you’ll be careful on your own.”

“Hmm.”

Leonard nodded as he listened.

He understood that the Thirteen Knights had a well-prepared plan. Taking the Angel’s Remains with them would surely draw fire.
