Catastrophe Card King - Chapter 459

Chapter 459: Chapter 166:1 am not a bird in a cage_2

“So many? Haha, we’re going to make a fortune this time.”

The hunters knew nothing about the Silver Moon Sect, nor were they clear on why the seal was applied.

A wild team of more than twenty people plunged into the black fog.

The quiet streets had very low visibility.

A group of fully armed hunters was carefully heading towards the depth of the street.

There were not only their team in the ruins, but probably hundreds of teams were pioneering in the city at the same time.

Intense gunfire echoed around them from time to time.

Leonard Churchill had just returned from outside the city and was in no hurry at all.

He was walking and chatting with Elder Clinton and Colin along the way.

From time to time, he would glance at Catherine Carter pretending to be a doctor in the center.

The elder miss, who didn’t know what she was thinking or what she intended to do, had been silent along the way, appearing quite unsociable.

The ruptured seal had brought too many undead creatures from the depths of the land. They hadn’t left the city for long when traces of creatures appeared in the dim corners of the dilapidated streets.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Aftee a round of gunfire, under the suppression of powerful firepower, this small wave of monsters was wiped out.

A few hunters excitedly peeled off the Dark Matter Crystals from the bodies of the monsters.

Leonard Churchill saw for the first time what was being fiercely purchased by the merchants in the city.

It was a black crystal similar to a Magic Core.

Leonard Churchill had not seen any description of this thing in any books.

He asked Elder Clinton beside him, who conveniently lost his memory again.

The hunters who had first gotten a batch of crystals shared their loot, and everyone was very excited.

Tasting the sweetness of the loot, this hastily formed small team excitedly explored deeper into the ruins.

Leonard Churchill was not in a hurry to compete with them for crystals as his injuries had not healed.

He just blended in with the team, also taking the chance to restore and repair his body.

In this way, the team explored and sporadically hunted monsters along the way.

The visibility in the ruins was terrible, and they also had to clear out the monsters and avoid some Alternate Dimensions.

They had already walked many streets, but they were still less than ten kilometers away from the pit in the center of the ruins in a straight line.

They were advancing steadily and didn’t encounter any dangers.

Except one unlucky guy who was too anxious to get the crystals, had his throat bitten by a zombie that was not completely dead. There were basically no casualties.

At midnight, the group lit a bonfire in a sturdy small building, ready to rest for the night.

The roaring bonfire broke the darkness and lit up the faces of the nineteen people in the team.

“Haha, a smallest Dark Matter Crystal is worth three thousand. Have I earned seventy to eighty thousand?”

“I’ve also earned more than fifty thousand. My goodness, this is the first time I’ve felt that it’s so easy to make money.”

“Yeah. The streets we walk through have already been treaded by others. If we find some monster-dense areas, wouldn’t we be rich?”

“Haha, hope we encounter more monsters tomorrow.”

“Don’t let your guard down. The ruins are already very dangerous. Now the center of the city suddenly collapsed, nobody knows what’s going on. Those who keep watch at night, be more careful.”

“Alright, Captain Christ!”

The hunters underestimated the risk of the ruins due to their unexpected harvest. They all laughed and joked, not taking it too seriously.

It’s much safer to farm monsters than to explore the Alternate Dimension.

After all, there is a way to retreat. Even if they really can’t fight, they think they can always run back to Lion City.

“Hey hey hey, sir, you look familiar. Are you the legendary Dog King?”

“Hahaha… Empty fame, empty fame.”

Elder Clinton, after all, was a famous person in the hunter circle.

He would definitely not take action if he didn’t have to, and he was adept at lazing around, and he looked shifty too.

After getting to know him for a day, he was recognized by people again.

The process was almost identical each time.

Almost no one knew him, but they all had heard of the legend of the “Dog King”.

As soon as his identity was exposed, he immediately became the object of humour for his team members.

No one thought he was really capable, but he was a good topic of conversation.

The old man started talking nonsense after drinking.

He had lived a long time, so he knew a lot of gossip.

He did not mind being ridiculed at all. He chatted and spat with gusto.

Colin was used to it and remained silent on the side.

But Leonard Churchill was quite interested.

After he knew that the old man was a real master, listening to those bragging, the feeling was completely different.

Stuff like “I also experienced S-level stories back in the day”, “I have seen a monster larger than Sinless City”, “I have encountered S-level Catastrophe a few times…”

These stories, which sounded absurd to others, sounded different in Leonard Churchill’s ears at the moment.

He always felt that the stories told by the old man might be real.

The stories were possibly from an era long ago that most people could not remember.

Not only Leonard Churchill was keen to listen, but also in the corner on the other side of the bonfire, Catherine Carter, who was disguised as a doctor, her crystal eyes were shining.

The potato stew meat over the fire gurgled and the strong aroma of meat filled the air.

Leonard Churchill also got a bowl of meat soup.

He dipped the chewy black bread into the soup and put it in his mouth. The taste of wheat and meat gave him a sense of satisfaction.

He leaned against a pillar of the house, eating while looking at the black glass- like crystal in his hand.
