Chapter 839: Chapter 265: Sophia Jones’s Domain – Descending Gods
“`
Leonard Churchill had slain his own “shadow,” and received a reward that surprised even him given his current level of experience.
Now, he had begun to understand that this “Divine Ruins Treasure House” was likely a mysterious realm created by so ancient major powers to pass on transcendental knowledge to card masters.
Moreover, the reward chanism was fair to everyone who entered this mysterious realm.
No matter the tier of the card master, as long as you could defeat your own replica, you would receive a reward.
Leonard Churchill also made a point of asking Catherine Carter about the situations of the others.
...
If soone else helped to kill your shadow, the reward would be much less.
This mysterious realm seed to encourage card masters to challenge themselves, to find their own weaknesses and improve, while also obtaining fitting rewards.
The higher the difficulty, the more rewards you would get.
This made Leonard Churchill even more eager to challenge higher difficulty shadows.
“Junior replica” had awarded a skill enhancent card.
So, could there be “Interdiate” and “Advanced” ones as well?
…
A battle that was expected to be extrely perilous, ended easily.
This left Lew Williams and Monica, watching from afar, utterly speechless.
Lew Williams wasn’t shy, and directly asked, “Brother Leonard Churchill, how co it seed so easy for you to kill your ‘shadow’?”
The Song Family’s transcendent gifts were all rather diocre, and running a business required too much energy and ti, so they couldn’t go far on the path of a card master.
But for this chubby guy, having such an expert in the team drastically increased their chances of survival.
After all, it was better if the expert’s tier was lower.
If there were a Cursing Spirit Fourth Tier guardian and the shadow was also fourth tier, if the shadow couldn’t be killed, everyone would die.
Leonard Churchill was about to explain, but seeing the chubby man walking over, he frowned.
Catherine Carter, standing beside him, also sensed sothing and said sternly, “Be careful, we’re under an illusion technique. This technique’s tier is extrely high, it’s probably the Silver Moon Sect causing trouble again.”
“Hmm.”
Leonard Churchill nodded, sharing the sa thought.
Falling prey to it without any warning ant the technique’s tier was so high that it was beyond his comprehension.
It could only be the doing of those from the Silver Moon Sect.
And at this ti, Leonard Churchill had already spotted so transparent, glowing “roots” appearing in his field of vision.
The roots, like earthworms, were spreading everywhere.
This was that glowing tree that the Silver Moon Sect had concocted earlier.
Leonard Churchill had seen it in the Silver Moon Secret Book; it was a “Pleasure Divine Skill,” a technique used to spread Faith Pollution.
In simple terms, this thing was a “signal booster” for a Contamination Source.
These roots were rapidly spreading towards the underground, as if intending to root themselves beneath the land.
Normally, as long as people weren’t exposed to moonlight, they could be exempt from Silver Moon contamination, but now the roots had reached underground, and the contamination followed.
To know, Red District Street was over a dozen kiloters from Candy Street, where the Silver Moon Sect was located.
Leonard Churchill imdiately sensed that sothing very bad was about to happen.
The mbers of the Silver Moon Sect were probably up to so trick.
Lew Williams still didn’t understand what was happening, but seeing the expressions of Leonard Churchill and the others, a fear crept into his heart, and he nervously asked, “What’s wrong?”
As he spoke, his small, frightened eyes scanned around, fearful that a monster might suddenly erge.
It would have been better not to look.
But as soon as he did, sure enough, there was one!
At this ti, the color drained from Monica’s face, and she looked towards the darkness of the corridor, saying, “Careful! There’s a monster!”
Leonard Churchill looked over as well, and right then, he saw a Skeleton Warhorse covered in Death Air with a strange knight on its back, sporting a crow’s skull.
The monster stood there as if it were the Grim Reaper co to harvest lives.
Lew Williams, as if the deepest fears within him were unleashed, had his pupils shrink, and he trembled uncontrollably, exclaiming, “It’s the ‘Crow knight’!!! I…I…”
It was clear to see that the timid fat man was truly frightened, even his voice stuttering.
However, Leonard Churchill felt that sothing was off and thought to himself, “Crow knight?”
He had read various classic books.
He was sure this creature did not exist in reality, and he had never seen it in any books that introduced bizarre Catastrophe Demon Beasts.
Rather, this creature usually only existed in certain folk tales.
It was a part of many bedti stories told by adults to mischievous children before they slept.
Catherine Carter also noticed sothing was amiss: “This creature seems sowhat off…”
Leonard Churchill nodded.
Their levels of understanding were both very high, and they instantly noticed sothing was wrong with the monster.
And at this mont, Leonard Churchill also noticed black threads erging from Lew Williams’s body.
This was “fear.”
But it was now more than ten tis stronger than before.
“Has fear been magnified… has the New King of Orlan entered too?”
Leonard Churchill had witnessed such a scene once before.
Last ti, in Lion City, the New King of Orlan had used so Secret Skill to magnify people’s fears and absorb that fear.
Now mixed with the Silver Moon Secret Technique?
In just that mont, Lew Williams’s fear had been magnified several dozen tis.
The form of the [Crow knight] seed to be affected by so mysterious power, becoming more and more grotesque.
To the naked eye, it looked as though a Demon God had descended, unbeatable.
Leonard Churchill had only been sowhat concerned about the appearance of a Super Tier monster a mont ago.
But seeing how the shape grew increasingly exaggerated, he actually felt relieved, and the corners of his mouth curled into a slight smile, “So that’s how it is…”
He had seen through the true nature of the monster.
With that realization, he planted his feet firmly and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
