Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 625: Chapter 210: Goodbye Catherine Carter_4

The Orlan Dynasty is using such tactics to restore their country?

Catherine Carter explained with a remark, “The specifics are not clear yet. After all, the Orlan Remnants hold almost all the top-secret documents of the Old Continent. Moreover, increasingly more evidence indicates that the Orlan Dynasty… has direct ties to the Taron ancient country, which perished three thousand years ago. Even today’s Orlan Royal Family is the descendant of the Augustan Royal Family of the Taron Dynasty!”

“????”

Leonard Churchill’s thoughts became vivid upon hearing this.

He had thought it was just faith pollution by the Ancient God Sect, but he didn’t expect it to be tied up with such historical secrets.

This made things more complicated—it was no longer simply a matter of faith.

If today’s Orlan Royal Family really is the descendants of the Royal Family of Augustus from three thousand years ago, then the Orlan Remnants might not only have the documents of the Old Continent but also possibly the secrets of the “Great Catastrophe,” as well as some true Transcendent secrets related to divinity?

Hiss…

Leonard Churchill took a sharp inward breath.

He felt as though he was seeing a menacing lion lying in wait, and when it awoke, the entire Federation would face a devastating blow.

Under such circumstances, did the Lionheart Family still dare to share their meal with the Orlan Remnants?

Catherine Carter seemed to guess Leonard Churchill’s thoughts and explained, “We only just learned of this information, much of which is speculation. And my father is in a difficult position right now. With the Main Branch and the White Family joining forces, we also had to make compromises.”

“…”

Listening, Leonard Churchill guessed as much.

He had no interest in political intrigue— it didn’t matter who came to power.

But faith pollution was a big problem indeed.

However, unexpectedly, Catherine Carter then added indifferently, “But once I take power, these issues will be dealt with directly.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill turned his gaze toward her and a smile slowly curved his lips.

Her words were calm, yet they carried an undeniable dominion of arrogance.

Tsk tsk… This woman really has changed after her hero fate has solidified.

…

After one dance, another followed.

They chatted intermittently.

However, as the time for the banquet neared, the big shots began to arrive in succession.

The most important person in Lion City at present was naturally the second house owner of the Lionheart Family, Catherine Carter’s father, the “Golden Lion” Carlo.

As the host entered, everyone in the room paid their respects.

But what Leonard Churchill glanced at was that he saw a still-charming, beautiful woman by Carlo’s side.

Anyone entering with Carlo was bound to be someone of significance.

Leonard Churchill curiously asked, “Who is that?”

It wasn’t just him; almost everyone present did not recognize this mysterious lady.

However, Catherine Carter whispered into his ear, “The Queen of Orlan, Catherine.”

“!!!”

The moment he heard the name, Leonard Churchill knew who Camilla intended to kill that night.

Tracy Garcia had previously told him of the tragic past of Camilla, the illegitimate princess of the royal family.

That Queen Catherine was a key figure.

If anyone was to be called the chief culprit behind the death of Camilla’s mother, it was the Queen of Orlan!

Since she appeared, Camilla would certainly come to kill her.

“Hiss…”

A flash of surprise appeared and then disappeared in Leonard Churchill’s eyes.

He had known all along that Camilla would definitely kill Catherine, so this was not a particular shock.

Instead, his mind was focused on other things.

Looking at Catherine Carter, disguised as a girl in a black dress, Leonard Churchill thought back to their previous conversation.

Could it be that the bounty on the Black Market was actually posted by Catherine Carter herself?

To clip the wings of the Orlan Dynasty by proxy?

It’s not like it was she who took action…

As this thought emerged, Leonard Churchill began to think it likely.

Although Camilla was ostensibly there to avenge a personal vendetta, the Thirteen Masked Knights often accepted bounties to disguise their true objectives when committing murder.

Just like Reuel Bible had analyzed before, the killing of Stan Miller in the Grand Cemetery Labyrinth was because a bounty had been placed on the Black Market, prompting the Thirteen Knights to act.

But in fact, it also served to hide the fact that Thirteen Knights originally wanted to create chaos in Sinless City.

While it’s “borrowing a knife to kill,” it also amounts to “implicit cooperation,” where all parties can reach their goals.

One with the name, another with the action!

Upon realizing this, Leonard Churchill’s eyes narrowed slightly, sensing the situation he faced tonight was even more complex than he had anticipated.
