Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 591:
Chapter 591: Chapter 202 Hell’s Knight·Dragon Hawk Garen
Camilla transformed into a Frost Element and was the first to get her hands on the Holy Grail, a scene that made the other three parties watch with a hardened expression.
They had all come for this thing and there was no way they were going to let someone take it away without a fight.
Prince Sane was the closest, and seeing the Holy Grail he thought was assuredly his being taken away, he violently swung his great sword, and with a backhand gesture, sent a wave of Sword Air slashing over.
The distance between them was just a few meters, and the Golden Crescent Blade Air was unavoidable.
However, unexpectedly, the Sword Air easily split the Camilla in front of him in two.
But instead of blood gushing from the wound, it dissolved into wisps of cold air.
In the blink of an eye, the cold air enveloped her, and in another blink, she was restored to her original state.
Seeing this, Prince Sane’s complexion changed drastically.
An Elemental Body!
Upon closer inspection, Camilla stood there emotionlessly.
Her shiny, crystal-clear silver hair danced without any wind, and behind her, there emerged a majestic figure of an Ice and Snow Witch wearing a crown.
The Demon God’s Phantom was so vivid it was as if a true deity had descended, bestowing upon her an indescribable aura of superiority.
Even Leonard Churchill, lying charred in a corner from afar, marveled at the scene, thinking, “So strong!”
A hundred percent physical immunity, just this alone made the techniques of almost all Close-Combat Professionals useless.
Diamonds Q-White Queen truly deserved to be a high-tier Sequence.
However, looking at Camilla’s emotionless expression, Leonard Churchill’s brow furrowed slightly.
It was as if he was getting reacquainted with this old friend, feeling a strange sense of unfamiliarity.
In those silver pupils, there was an indifference to everything in the world.
Yet the crisis was far from over!
Seeing his Sword Air had failed to harm Camilla, Prince Sane also stopped immediately, not daring to advance rashly.
But it wasn’t just him circling like a tiger—it was also Red Dragon Yuri!
The Hell’s Knight saw the Holy Grail being taken and opened his mouth to spew out a Dragon’s breath of Black Fire.
An Elemental Body might be immune to physical attacks, but not to magic!
“Boom~”
A pillar of black flame burst forth like a breached dam.
Camilla, still wearing a blank expression, raised her fist, and white cold aura, as if freezing the Void itself, quickly solidified into an ice shield etched with Curse runes in front of her.
The Dragon’s breath collided with the shield and was completely blocked.
Ice and fire touched, and a great amount of white steam hissed out.
Hellfire was not an ordinary element of fire, and when considering that the two parties’ tiers differed by one, it appeared that the ice shield was melting under the fiery onslaught of the breath.
In a moment, the black flames completely enveloped Camilla.
To the naked eye, her figure was rapidly dissolving.
But Camilla was entirely unafraid.
She merely blocked it for a moment, her body surging with Curse Power like the tide, the Demon God’s Phantom exuding a divine aura behind her, while she seemingly murmured, “Forbidden Zone of Death!”
The Spell took shape instantly.
A bizarre scene unfolded.
Though flames raged before their eyes, instead of feeling heat, the people in the Underground Palace felt a chilling cold air sweeping through, causing goosebumps to rise on their skin.
An icy chill approached, quickly spreading throughout the cavern.
Looking again, icicles had formed on the massive cavern rock walls.
The crisp sound of ice cracking filled their ears, and a deadly cold aura continued to spread wildly as the temperature plummeted.
This was a cold that seemed to freeze one’s very thoughts.
As soon as she used the Secret Skill, she seemed like the Frost Queen herself descending, raising Camilla’s imposing presence to an ethereal level.
Leonard Churchill had seen this move before.
The last time was at Rose Manor, when Camilla had defeated hundreds of elite Knights from the Lionheart Family in a second.
Seeing it now was no surprise to him; he simply thought to himself, “The White Queen’s exclusive Demon God Secret Skill, huh… much stronger than last time.”
He didn’t know what experiences led his old friend to become so powerful.
But he understood that every transformation came with its pain, a feeling all too familiar to Leonard Churchill.
With that move alone, Camilla’s combat power was no less than the other Fourth Tiers present in the cavern.
However, she showed no intention to engage in battle, her surrounding cold aura dissipating as she spectrally relocated a hundred meters away in an instant.
Leonard Churchill, weakened and lying in the corner, watched Camilla approach with the Holy Grail, a bitter smile crossing his lips, silently sighing, “Be careful…”
Strength aside,
the Holy Grail was not something easy to take.
He knew it.
And he knew that his old friend was aware of it as well.
….
The stronger Camilla’s abilities, the more it meant that the “Battle of Ironforge” scenario would have a corresponding level of difficulty.
Based on the combat power she had just displayed, even if she faced the two known Fourth Tiers, there were dangers, but there were also chances of victory.
The difficulty level of this Alternate Dimension scenario had already reached A+, and a hidden plot was triggered. It wasn’t just a matter of difficulty level.
Moreover, the inscription on the previous tombstone had stated that not only was the Holy Grail within the Hero’s Tomb, but also a Hell Demon was sealed within.
As Leonard Churchill had predicted,
the moment Camilla just got hold of the Holy Grail, Enlightenment appeared as expected: “Hidden plot triggered: The Holy Grail’s seals have loosened, and the Tomb’s Barrier has been activated; the Hell Demon, silent for a hundred years beneath the Hero’s Tomb, will appear… Breaking the Barrier will end the scenario and leave the Alternate Dimension.”
Leonard Churchill looked at the Enlightenment, his face filled with bitterness.
He knew his old friend had recklessly gone for the Holy Grail upon realizing he was close to death.
It would’ve been far safer to let someone like Prince Sane, a character from the scenario, get his hands on it first and understand what would be triggered later on.
But that was not an option.
Because even for healthy individuals, the Holy Water within the Holy Grail could provide immense benefits.
