CATASTROPHE CARD KING

Chapter 917: 284_4

Yet no one dared say a single word, nor did they dare to resist. They could only watch as their comrades’ souls were searched, as if awaiting their own looming death sentence.

However, their fear did not last long.

Moments later, the soul searching came to an end.

Ron obtained the results he wanted and did not continue the killing.

He said to the few pale-faced individuals, “Tell your Family Head that I, Ron, accept the gift. Have them arrange for someone to wait at Gold-digging Dock for news. My men will be there soon, get ready to receive them.”

Those few were so frightened that they had lost all sense of control, hurriedly responding, “Yes, my lord!”

Once the men had left, the vanguards of the Ariel Empire began to discuss amongst themselves.

“Tsk tsk, it looks like we’re going to achieve a great feat this time. If only our Vanguard Team had a few more people, we could flatten that so-called Card Master Federation right now…”

“Hey, speaking of which… although those people in the East Wilderness are weak, they really do have quite a few nice things. We’re going to make a fortune this time.”

“I thought we’d at least have to fight a bit. But here we are, just after sacking one city, and those fellows are already scared witless and surrendering. Lord Legion Commander’s strategy is truly brilliant…”

“The real chance to make a fortune is still to come! Tsk tsk, the East Wilderness might be weak, but they sure have a damn lot of people. Now we won’t be short of cannon fodder…”

“…”

In their tone was nothing but disdain for the military might of the Card Master Federation and greed for the vast wealth to be plundered after the war.

No matter how barren the East Wilderness, its mineral deposits and population were still hard currency within the empire.

In their eyes, that population of hundreds of millions was already shining like Gold Coins.

Legion Commander Ron looked at the blueprint in his hand, thought for a moment, and finally made a decision he had been agonizing over for a long time.

“Given these gifts, that ‘Capen Family’ must indeed hold power in the East Wilderness. I plan to check out Gold-digging Dock to confirm the intelligence. If all goes well, I’ll make a trip to the East Wilderness…”

He did not finish his sentence.

If possible, he intended to try to directly capture some kings or senators.

If he could capture or kill the enemy king before the battle even began, that would be a feat of extreme wealth and honor.

Hearing this, someone still cautioned, “Lord Legion Commander, could there be deception?”

Ron shook his head with a cold laugh, “So what if there is deception?”

His confidence came from his own formidable strength as he said haughtily, “The Capen Family is also wise to the times and is coming to surrender in good faith. Even if they have any ill intentions, it’s irrelevant. Though the intelligence reports some Sixth Tier individuals in the Card Master Federation, if I truly intend to leave, no one can keep me here.”

“Yes, my lord!”

Everyone else also thought so.

The gap in strength was too large; they did not see any chance for an accident.

Even if there was a risk, the opportunity for such extreme wealth was worth the gamble.

….

That Seventh Tier enemy could strike at any moment.

Leonard Churchill did not dare stay at Gold-digging Dock any longer than necessary.

After leaving the intelligence with Barre and the others, he left alone.

The plan to ambush the Seventh Tier at Gold-digging Dock was not his battlefield; he needed to hurry to other locations.

With the support of intelligence, Leonard soon knew exactly where the Ariel Empire vanguards were.

Those people, relying on their own strength, were burning, killing, and looting all the way without concealing their tracks.

But since they were few, they were still operating near the Demon Cross.

The trains going to the Demon Cross Ruins had stopped running. Leonard had no choice but to ride his motorcycle, braving the risk of being surrounded and attacked by wilderness monsters, as he made his solitary journey.

Although the Ariel Empire was powerful, a Seventh Tier card master was also a high-caliber expert of the Legion Commander level.

In this Vanguard Team, currently, only such an unmatched powerhouse was discovered.

Leonard quickly arrived near the Demon Cross Ruins, but he did not hurry to engage those people.

Instead, he moved around, observing.

Until three days later.

Catherine Carter sent a message saying that the Seventh Tier had appeared at Gold-digging Dock.

Only then did Leonard know that his chance to infiltrate had come.

The real prolonged war was still a matter of intelligence.
