Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 827: Chapter 261 The Sun (Thanks to the Overlord ‘Lu Mian,’)_4

After so many years of confronting each other, they even knew each other better than they knew themselves.

In this eerie atmosphere, they began to talk.

Listening, Nikola slightly raised his well-defined nose and exclaimed in admiration, “It’s true that Geoff almost killed me back then. I have to admit, he was the strongest card master I’ve ever met, unparalleled in both ability and wisdom, even far surpassing me. What a pity…”

But the vampire did not continue with those details and instead said, “Oh, let me correct that. Don’t use such an ugly term as ‘vampire’. From now on, you and I are both members of the eminent Seadinth’s clan. You should feel honored.”

Mushroomhead’s tone remained light, and as his mask fell away, he revealed a bloodless face with a ghastly smile, “I don’t want to become a vampire…”

As he spoke, he paused, then asked meaningfully, “However, I wonder if vampires hiding in the shadows are afraid of the sun?”

“…”

Nikola didn’t understand, but his expression immediately turned grave.

As he pondered the meaning of those words, he saw Mushroomhead burst into sacred flames.

“Did he just commit suicide?”

The scorching white fire posed a grave threat to vampires, and Nikola, sensing the mortal danger, quickly retracted his hand and fell back.

Thinking it was some secret skill to free oneself, he watched in disbelief as Mushroomhead burned to ashes before his eyes.

And as he stood there puzzled, the entire world before him lit up.

….

In the corner, Leonard Churchill watched as Mushroomhead “died” again.

His expression was serious, but he was not very worried.

He was one of the few who had glimpsed just the tip of the iceberg of Mushroomhead’s grand scheme.

Mushroomhead had already been contaminated, and now, this situation seemed like a deliberate ploy to lure Count Nikola into showing himself.

But now that Mushroomhead was already dead, what was the use of luring him out?

Could it be intending to rely on this person beside him to do the killing?@@novelbin@@

Barre Shepherd, an old man standing nearby, apparently also thought so. Being personally very interested in the vampire, he looked eager to try, “Tsk tsk, this vampire has even touched the domain of the demigod…”

But they were all mistaken.

Mushroomhead’s scheme was more far-reaching than any could see.

The full moon outside was casting its light over the whole Sinless City.

Yet at that moment, a more dazzling and dominant golden light instantly dispelled the gentle moonlight and illuminated the entire Sinless City.

Leonard, with his eyes wide, was overwhelmed by shock, “The sun?!”

The people of this underground world saw the legendary sun for the first time.

At the same time, it was as if someone was chanting the Spell Sound in the vastness of space, “God Skill: Dawn of a New World.”

….

As the daylight shone down, it was as if they had entered the Alternate Dimension, and the surroundings changed.

The glittering lights of the Flood Gang vanished, replaced by bustling street scenes.

The Great Sun hung high, its light piercing.

As their sight gradually adjusted, towering buildings and a thronging crowd emerged, creating a bustle of activity.

This was not Sinless City, but a strange metropolis bustling with life.

But on closer inspection, one could sense a familiarity in those buildings.

And the clothing of the people on the streets was highly retro, reminiscent of Taron-era style.

Seeing the bustling view, an astonishing thought popped into Leonard’s head: Could this be… the City of Ember from three thousand years ago?

Simultaneously, he finally realized what Noah Wright had done.

That fellow had pulled everyone in Sinless City into a special world akin to an Alternate Dimension.
