Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 376
Chapter 146: Hit the Flood Gang Part 3
Translator: 549690339 |
Leonard Churchill was initially intrigued to get involved in such lively, multiparty competition.
But having recently witnessed Camilla in a big battle at Rose Manor, he had gained a clearer understanding that he, a First Tier card master, was nothing compared to the real high-level players.
It took a risk of life and death just to save someone. Damn, how could he take any pleasure in that!
Strength was the only way to see the landscape from the heights and enjoy more happiness.
And Leonard knew that his biggest advantage was the Joker.
But Feast Skill required an abundance of bodies.
The Corpse Collector was no longer sufficient.
Always staying in Sinless City would greatly limit his growth.
However, the alternate dimension during the War Mode in the last “Holy Grail
War B Outpost Battle” had given Leonard a taste of its potential.
That sort of space had numerous bodies.
Now he had all the templates and materials ready for the Professional Card of a Second Tier Air Skill Master. He could advance to the next level at any time.
Leonard planned to advance only after the attributes he was ready to devour had reached a tipping point.
Just in time, both the Miller Family and Lionheart Family were heading to the Old Continent to build New City. There would undoubtedly be various alternate dimensions, and no shortage of bodies.
Moreover, the Old Continent hides a mass of top-secret treasures, with opportunities everywhere.
It seemed like a grand drama had just begun. This was where every major power in the Federation was currently focusing.
For all these reasons, even if the Silver Moon Leader hadn’t mentioned it, Leonard had already made plans to spend some time on the Old Continent.
But before that,
He decided to take a trip to the Flood Gang’s territory first.
He wanted to discuss with Nine Master about the “Supreme Tyrant Body.”
Having obtained the Silver Moon Secret Book, Leonard, disinterested in returning to the apartment, directly took the elevator to the Lower City of Sinless City.
Coming off the elevator was the Ironforge City train station.
Giant steam boilers were constantly operating, transferring supplies and personnel up and down the city.
Gloom of heavy smog drifting in the air of Lower City, made Leonard feel more at ease as he breathed in this unclean air.
The people coming from Upper city could take the inter-city steam train to the city.
Leonard stepped off the platform, waiting by the road.
But before a bus came, a roaring sound was heard.
Looking around, a gang of bikers dressed in leather and sporting mohawks and smoked makeup appeared.
Leonard immediately recognized this was the Flood Gang.
The Ironforge City station was a lucrative area under Flood Gang’s control.
Patrolling their territory was just another daily task for the gang.
Leonard didn’t pay much attention to this normally.
But taking a second glance, he noticed that leading the biker squad was an enigmatic female biker with a graceful figure dressed in leather.
Though she was wearing a helmet, from the unique, meticulously tailored modifications on her bike, Leonard instantly figured out who it was.
Who else could it be if not Seven Brown?
What a coincidence!
Apparently, Seven Brown also recognized him while darn the station. Her beautiful eyes concealed beneath the anti-wind glasses gave a startled flicker.
But there were too many strangers around, so she didn’t stop.
The convoy roared past him.
Leonard thought it over, and instead of waiting for a bus, he walked out of the station and followed the main road ahead.
Before long, he was watched by some petty thieves who had been keeping an eye on him.
Leonard didn’t want to tangle with them and flashed the firearm on his waist. The half-grown boys knew they had met their match and wisely retreated. After not traveling far, the streetlights faded, and darkness swallowed the surroundings.
Leonard, unfazed, continued his journey along the track with an indifferent expression.
Walking alone in the darkness, surrounded by deathly silence,
He felt a strange sense of peace.
Not long after, the thumping sound of steam boilers came from a distance, steadily growing louder.
In the blink of an eye, a black motorcycle roared out from the front, stylishly maneuvering a neat drift and turn, and stopping right next to him.
“Hey, handsome, where are you going? Need a ride?”
Upon removing her helmet, the messy hair fell around her face, revealing a delicate but stern face due to the smokey makeup.
Leonard smiled: “What a coincidence?”
Seven Brown shrugged: “Not exactly a coincidence. Some of the cargo in our gang has been intercepted quite a lot these past few days, so we’ve increased the patrol.”
But encountering Leonard here cheered her up, so she immediately said, “Get on.”
Without further ado, Leonard climbed onto the bike, his arm around her slim waist.
“Hold on tight.”
Seven Brown shouted, the steam boiler roared, and the motorcycle shot off like an arrow.
The journey from Ironforge to the Flood Gang was quite long, but it seemed that Seven Brown had no intention of going directly towards the Flood Gang but rather towards the highway that bypassed the city.
This was a route the biker gang frequently took for speed racing.
Seven Brown asked: “Shall I take you for a spin?”
“Good.”
Leonard thought that was a great idea, too.
The motorcycle zoomed into the darkness.
As the wind howled past his ears, the cold wind slapped his face, the roar of the mechanical beast below him, and the fast-flying speed stirred a thrilling sense of comfort as if the soul was floating.
Leonard also enjoyed the feeling.
As Seven Brown controlled the bike, she asked, “How’s the Mental Deformation going?”
Leonard responded, “Temporarily resolved.”
Hearing those words, a smile spread across her face underneath the helmet.
“That’s good. You disappeared for so long, I thought something had happened to you,” Seven Brown said.
She knew Leonard had been absent to deal with the issue. Now that he had returned, she was happy for him.
Leonard asked, “What’s been happening in Sinless City these days? Why are you out patrolling?”
