At this point, Leonard Churchill heard a reminder in his earpiece, “Two stealthy targets are on their way up to you. They are likely First Tier assassins and not weak, be careful.”

This small communication device wasn’t something modern technology could fabricate.

It was an ancient black technology obtained through archaeology.

Some were kept in the X Bureau.

The Federal Military did not even possess them.

Having someone to alert him saved Leonard a lot of trouble.

His face, concealed beneath the gas mask, had partially transformed into a werewolf.

He sat in the same spot, pretending to be completely oblivious.

Stealth was visual concealment, not disappearance.

For Leonard, who was now in this state, it was not difficult to detect them if they approached.

Suddenly!

A dagger discreetly pierces the mist inside the dilapidated building.

It cleverly attempted to strike Leonard’s head from behind.

They probably thought capturing a card master apprentice would be a piece of cake. They didn’t aim for a vital spot, perhaps intending to capture him alive.

However, when the attacker appeared to succeed, Leonard’s expression suddenly turned as sharp as a knife, “They’re here!”

Leonard dashed, and with a sudden [[Barbaric Charge]], he rammed into the chest of the assassin behind him.

The man didn’t even have time to react, and his chest was caved in by a powerful force. His bones made a cracking noise, and he lost consciousness instantly.

Leondard knocked the assassin unconscious with one strike. A cold light flashed in his hand, and his wolf claw made a swift jab at the assailant’s throat.

Assassin Type card masters specialized in burst damage. Their Curse Power Value isn’t high, and their physical defense isn’t much stronger than a Magic Type.

With this swift claw attack, the assassin’s throat erupted in a gush of fresh blood.

The assassin died on the spot after a single encounter.

These sudden changes came too suddenly, so quickly that it was unbelievable.

The other assassin watched as his partner was killed, shocked on the spot.

He was initially in stealth mode, intending to coordinate with his partner to intercept the target during a possible forward roll evasion, a standard coordinated tactic.

But he never expected that in the blink of an eye, his partner was killed.

The remaining assassin stood dumbfounded for a moment, but immediately chose to counterattack.

But just as he tried to rush forward to close the gap, Leonard’s response was faster!

Almost immediately after killing the previous assassin, he had already maneuvered for another strike. Using the resistance of the previous impact, he charged forward.

The close-quarters rush of the Barbaric Charge was extremely effective at this range.

The approaching assassin had just emerged from stealth mode and was about to attack, yet Leonard’s towering werewolf form was already charging at him.

Using the same method of attack, Leonard knocked him unconscious in an instant. His silvery claw had already lacerated the man’s throat.

He killed another in the blink of an eye.

Seeing all of this from the shadows, Reuel Bible was greatly shocked, thinking to himself: “He’s strong. No wonder he’s soconfident in provoking them…”

Having such a disposition and mentality, Reuel suspected Leonard was highly skilled.

However, he had not witnessed it with his eyes until now.

He did not expect Leonard to be so strong.

From the smooth and quick double-kill, Reuel had never seen a First Tier this formidable.

Leonard, standing over the bodies, swiftly collected the Spoils of War.

He had already placed some small sensors around the dilapidated building, which came in handy now.

During transformation, his senses were pushed to the extreme.

The sense of smell, hearing, danger perception…

Even if veiled in thick fog, Leonard, in his ancestral werewolf state, accurately detected the positions of his enemies.

After killing two people, the slight movement of energy alerted the men from the Miller family that they had been discovered.

There was no point in staying hidden. Their hideout in the ruined building soon echoed with their frantic footsteps.

Leonard discerned the location of his enemies, skipped the staircase, and leapt straight out of the window.

The elite were indeed elites.

The men from the Miller family anticipated his escape by jumping out the window, and they had stationed forces on all sides to trap him.

Luckily, Reuel Bible was secretly tracking them and warned Leonard: “Don’t go in the nine o’clock direction, there’s a high-tier card master there!”

Leonard avoided the most dangerous direction and charged forward.

He encountered two five-person interception teams on the way, but he showed no signs of slowing. He casually killed a few vulnerable card masters who couldn’t dodge in time.

He fled deeper into the ruins.

His werewolf claws could easily penetrate the outer walls of buildings. He traversed rooftops and walls, safely avoiding the traps set by enemy forces on the ground.

In the complex environment of the ruins, even a Third Tier Assassin would find it tough to catch him.

Taking advantage of the terrain, Leonard didn’t even dash at full speed, but escape was already in sight.

The men from the Miller family, after all, were careless.

They thought he was still the card master apprentice that he used to be.

During the last encounter at the Black Market on Dark Rain Street, a five-man team had almost cornered him.

Now, given that dozens of times more people were surrounding him, the situation should have been completely under control.

But the outrageous disparity in combat power exhibited by Leonard Churchill completely disrupted Saul Miller’s plan for encirclement and annihilation.

“The bastard’s escaped!”

“Three o’clock direction, he’s broken through the encirclement. Tracking team, stick to him!”

“Damn it, what the hell is going on?”

“The target can transform into a werewolf, he’s so fast that even a second-tier God Thief can’t catch up!”

“Be careful. The target might be the one on the wanted list.”

Clearly, it wasn’t just Miller IV who didn’t expect that the card disciple he’d been looking for had become this powerful.

The Silver Moon Sect hands were also caught off-guard.

Wasn’t he supposed to be a mere card master apprentice?

How could the disparity be so vast?

They thought it would be a simple and easy encirclement.

They never expected such a huge slip-up.

Moreover, how could even a first-tier card master escape from this dense encirclement?

Right at the moment the news of the target’s escape was released,

In a dark corner outside the ruins,

Madame Shelley, the Silver Moon Sect leader disguised as a noblewoman,

Had activated a variety of resources belonging to the Sect and traded a precious tier-four relic to get a rare opportunity to approach the Miller family.

If the person were to escape, the newly established relationship would be instantly severed.

The Relic-Treasure Hunter’s Compass, although powerfully effective, comes with a high usage cost.

If they don’t find the person this time, the feedback of the relic will make it even harder to locate them next time.

Hearing the report from Old Cook through the Silver Moon Mirror, she knew that the Miller people wouldn’t be able to capture the target without their intervention.

“Useless!”

Madame Shelley cursed under her breath.

Originally not planning to leave any traces of her intervention, her eyes narrowed and she disappeared on the spot.

Leonard Churchill ran wildly.

This was part of the plan discussed with Reuel Bible after they discovered that the people coming after them belonged to the Miller family.

Given the previous situation, the people from the Silver Moon Sect didn’t want to expose themselves in the Sinless City and were only helping with the location.

But this was not what Leonard and Reuel wanted.

To draw out the snake, they needed to bring out the big one.

If the Silver Moon Disciples were unwilling to show themselves, they would force them to!

Since the Silver Moon Sect was so eager to find people for Saul Miller, they must have an ulterior motive.

They absolutely wouldn’t stand by and watch as Leonard slipped away.

Reuel Bible had crossed paths with members of the Silver Moon Sect before. He was clear that others might not be able to catch up, but the Silver Moon Leader definitely could!

Leonard kept running in circles, and by the time the Miller family had responded, he had already broken through the encirclement and rushed out.

With this speed, there was a sense of no return.

However, suddenly, a strange scene unfolded.

As Leonard continued to run, a breathtakingly beautiful figure seemed to flash before his eyes.

At the same time, he heard what seemed to be a chanting of a demonic whisper in his ear. “Moon Curse-Willbound!”

The disparity was too large, and Leonard didn’t have any reaction at all.

He only felt a moment of bewilderment and saw a bright full moon reflected in his wolf eyes, both shining with a blue glow.

The moment the divine secret skill was used, it felt as if his consciousness was being bound by a mysterious force, falling into a wonderful dream, making him unable to move.

His thoughts stopped flowing, and Leonard stood dazed on the spot.

But the goal was accomplished.

The target had appeared.

From the corner of his ear, he heard Reuel Bible shout, “Ada, stick to the plan, get Leonard out of here now!”

Saying this, he couldn’t wait any longer and chased after the Silver Moon Leader that had just appeared.

Falling for the trap was part of the plan.

When the two discussed the plan previously, they were sure the Silver Moon Leader would make a move.

But it wouldn’t be a kill shot.

Most likely, it would only be a mental technique restricting movement.

If traces of her actions were discovered, revealing her identity as an Old Days Believer, it would lead to a loss.

The Miller family were not fools and were bound to notice.

It was risky, but Leonard chose to gamble.

Things went just as they had expected.

The leader appeared and used Mental Secret Skill to control Leonard.
