Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 755: Chapter 243 [Rare Vampire Heart (Silver)]_4

And the one who had turned the tide was all because of the man before her, “Mr. Sunny.”

Her lifesaver!

Her friend!

At this moment, she had wholeheartedly decided he was a very, very important friend!

Vera Williams’s mind, amid the excitement and exhilaration of having survived a close call, was now slowly filled with admiration for Leonard Churchill.

His calm and collected demeanor in the face of change, his assertive retaliation against the strong…

Scene after scene, like burning impressions, were deeply etched into the girl’s memory.

The warm breeze brushed by her ears, and without realizing it, she was weeping uncontrollably, incessantly muttering “thank you.”

Unbeknownst to her, a warm stream flowed down her neck.

Leonard Churchill watched the delicate body in his arms sob softly, and he smiled faintly.

Let these heated emotions be released.

He patted Vera’s back and said indifferently, “It’s alright now.”

Leonard Churchill hadn’t considered it a big deal.

Whether it was the enemy’s strength or the situation, to him, who had experienced countless perils, nothing seemed particularly special.

…

The quiet wilderness was dim and obscure, with only the two of them alone.

The breeze lightened the stench of blood on the corpses.

Leonard Churchill felt the subtle rapid thump of the girl’s heartbeat in his arms, knowing that her excited emotions had probably dissipated, as if she didn’t know how to break the slightly awkward silence.

He patted her back and said, “We shouldn’t stay here long.”

“Oh.”

Vera obediently responded, clearly relieved.

The darkness concealed the blush of shyness on her pretty face.

For the lady, that behavior just now was quite impolite.

But why couldn’t it be?

He was Mr. Leonard Churchill!

In an instant, the thoughts of the financial conglomerate’s young lady took several turns.

She got down from Leonard Churchill’s arms, her demeanor playful as she gave a deep curtsy, “Thank you! Mr. Leonard Churchill!”

Leonard Churchill noticed her changing mood and nodded, “Mm-hm.”

With the crisis gone, Vera’s mood was now extremely light, her face already brimming with smiles as she said earnestly again, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, I mean it, thank you!”

Leonard Churchill casually replied, “Yeah, I know.”

Vera looked at his ever-unchanging expression and pouted in annoyance.

But considering he had been like this for the past few days, she didn’t say anything else, instead reclaiming her radiant and confident smile, loudly saying, “I’m very pleased to have met you, Mr. Leonard Churchill!”

Leonard Churchill glanced at her, not sure why she was repeating it, but he also said, “Mm. I’m very pleased to have met you too, Miss Vera Williams.”

After this greeting, like those exchanged at a first encounter, the two exchanged smiles.

Only then did Leonard Churchill realize that things truly felt different.

He had made an interesting friend.

….

As anticipated, the battle here hadn’t attracted the vampires from Machinery City.

But it wasn’t wise to stay long.

Just as Leonard Churchill was about to leave, he looked down and exclaimed in surprise, “Huh… there’s loot.”

Only then did he notice that the Third Tier vampire he had just killed had its Extraordinary Traits condensed in its chest, actually producing a piece of Silver Material—the [Rare Vampire Heart (Silver)].

And the quality was quite good; it even had a special entry, [Bloodsucking +3%]!

Humans contaminated by the mutation were no longer human.

They were either Mutation Monsters or bringers of Catastrophe.

It was normal for them to drop materials.

But looking at the material, an idea came to Leonard Churchill’s mind.

[Bloodsucking] was a very practical special entry, able to heal injuries and enhance the body, which only a few materials could provide.

Such an item seemed to be quite compatible for Leonard Churchill, a Full Profession Card Master, right?

For ordinary people, such a Silver quality material was already a treasure, though for him, the tier was somewhat low.

However, if he hunted some stronger vampires,

Could he possibly obtain higher quality materials?

“Hss…”

With this thought, Leonard Churchill’s view of the vampires suddenly changed.

Before he could contemplate further, two figures, one old and one young, emerged from a corner.

The short one was naturally Pigeon.

The old one with a lecherous smile on his face was none other than Elder Clinton.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Pigeon stepped out and introduced, “It was this grandfather who saved me just now…”

Listening to Elder Clinton bragging with a smirk, “Heh heh, esteemed guests, long time no see.”

Seeing this old man appear here made Leonard Churchill’s expression subtle.

What was certain was that having seen this old man was like finding an “anchor”; he was not somebody who would easily die.

Staying by his side, and as long as one’s Life Pattern was tough, it wouldn’t be easy to die either.

With this thought, an idea suddenly sprang to Leonard Churchill’s mind.

That was to explore the Mithril mine together with this old man!

Leonard Churchill had harbored this thought before, but had been unsure of it.

Now that he had encountered this elder, didn’t “certainty” just arrive?

Moreover, he also suspected that Elder Clinton’s appearance in Bolton Town was probably to find that Contamination Source!
