CATASTROPHE CARD KING

Chapter 913: Chapter 283 Airel Ancient Dragon Empire_5

Leonard Churchill read the information very quickly, his eyes flickering nonstop.

Intelligence was not as dense as Transcendent knowledge, this kind of information was quite straightforward, he could memorize it at a glance, besides, previously Master Merlin had developed his brain with the “Overlimit cognition” domain.

Leonard felt that his brain could easily digest this knowledge at this moment.

Sometimes he read three or four pages at a time, and his mind would process it all at once.

Catherine Carter, who had just passed the intelligence documents over, thought it would take Leonard a long while to read through so much content.

But just as she turned to do her own thing, she heard a rapid “swoosh swoosh swoosh” of pages being turned beside her ear.

Looking up, Catherine saw Leonard swiftly coming to the end of the stack of intelligence documents.

“What on earth has happened to this guy…”

Catherine couldn’t help but murmur.

In her surprised eyes, there was also a faint realization that her old friend had changed significantly.

But it had only been half a month since they came out of the Divine Ruins Treasure House, right?

In the moment she was lost in thought, Leonard had already put down the last piece of intelligence, stared at the floor for a moment, pondered, and then his brows slightly relaxed.

He had finished reading all the intelligence, and a general concept had already formed in his mind.

These pieces of intelligence were almost identical to what Noah Wright had speculated previously.

The only difference was that the Airel Ancient Dragon Empire on the Southern Continent was far stronger than imagined.

The “Southern Continent” was indeed a remnant flame from three thousand years ago.

But even before that, there were many great dragons and some indigenous people living there.

Unlike the East Wilderness, the environment on the Southern Continent was very harsh, with all kinds of strong demon beasts and catastrophes emerging incessantly.

But accordingly, the harsh environment meant that those who could survive were all strong, and the card master inheritance was very intact and powerful.

Moreover, three thousand years ago, in addition to inheriting the transcendence from the Taren Dynasty, they also developed their unique Giant Dragon Card System.

“Very strong…”

Upon reaching this part, Leonard’s eyes narrowed, filled with more anticipation than fear.

The enemy was stronger than expected.

It was not just tier seven card masters, but there were also confirmed tier eight and tier nine card masters.

The ranks of the bodies were not high, and their positions were not significant enough to come into contact with too many high-level secrets.

However, it was said that there were real God Tier ranks!

But Noah was also right about one crucial point, that empire was not ruled by humans!

The Airel Ancient Dragon Empire was just a general term and not a kingship kingdom.

It was composed of three major kingdoms and various small and large duchies.

The highest authority of the empire was not any royal family.

It was the Holy Dragon Council.

It held authority over the three royal families.

This was not any Ancient God religious organization, but the Dragons speaking for humans.

Though they were human, the people of the Council had a special name called “Pure Blood”.

They were dragon descendants born directly from humans and great dragons.

Roughly equivalent to the nobles in the Federation, noble and endowed with powerful strength.

And the head of the Council had merged what was a long-lost sequence of Kingship in the Federation, the dual paths of Order and Kingship: the [Club K – Pope].

Noah’s speculation wasn’t wrong; those people could merge with various dragon descendant cards because most of them had some dragon bloodline.

In other words, those card masters were slaves to the Dragon Clan.

Although dragons didn’t need faith, but… the truth was that the Card Master Civilization was just an affiliate to the great dragons.

In that empire, great dragons were supreme, akin to gods; the pure-blooded dragon descendants of the Council were the rulers, mixed-bloods were second-class citizens, and ordinary humans and livestock slaves were of no distinction… responsible for pioneering, hunting, and serving as cannon fodder in wars.

Should the Federation truly be enslaved, the outcome was already predictable.

…

After finishing the intelligence, Leonard automatically deduced all sorts of possibilities in his head.

Most scenarios had already been hypothesized during his previous card game with Noah.

Facing such a powerful enemy, the Federation had no chance of victory.

Catherine, looking at him, asked with a hint of surprise, “You’re done reading?”

“Yeah.”

Leonard nodded, his brow still furrowed.

Catherine said, “Shocked, aren’t you? I was incredibly stunned when I saw it, too. I didn’t expect that, apart from us, such a powerful card master civilization could exist…”

As she spoke, her eyes betrayed a hint of helplessness.

She, too, had envisioned the future warfare, where nothing but guerrilla tactics stood a chance.

Leonard got straight to the point, “I have an idea. I need your help.”

“Hm?”

Catherine glanced at him, her voice firm, “Whatever it is, if you need it, I’ll help you.”

Leonard spoke calmly, “I plan to infiltrate the enemy’s ranks. I need to know the current location of their vanguard.”

Catherine understood immediately upon hearing this.

She had seen Leonard’s methods, and indeed, he was the best choice.

As for the risks…

The two had shared too many risky operations together.

How could she not know that this guy never considered such details as reasons to shrink back?

At a time when the entire Federation was shunning that mysterious enemy, only this guy would come up with such a crazy plan.

But Catherine was very smart. As soon as Leonard began his request, she instantly understood his reasons for doing so.

The fewer people who knew about this plan, the better.

That’s why Leonard had approached Catherine.

After all, they had a deep foundation of trust between them.

Only her status and identity were most suitable for the task.

Catherine readily agreed, “Yes! No problem.”

But she also made a request, “Actually, I have a plan as well, for which I need your help.”

Leonard gave her a puzzled look, “Hm?”

Catherine’s eyes flashed resolutely as she stated decisively, “I plan to… set a trap and ambush that tier seven!”

“…”

At those words, Leonard’s expression also turned stern.

Looking at Catherine in her crisp military uniform, it was as if he saw the threads of fate ablaze around her.

It wasn’t just him who had changed; the young miss of the Lionheart Family was no longer the same.

In her, one could see the heroic spirit that belonged to epic legends, the kind which figures destined to be remembered through history should possess.
