Translator: 549690339

Everything went as smoothly as expected.

Leonard Churchill severely wounded the approaching assassin with a single strike.

However, before he was able to finish the job.

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

Three cards were swiftly shot towards his position.

They arrived just in time.

The cards were silent and small, but as they passed through, managed to effortlessly embed themselves into the tough trunk of a tree, creating a hole all the way through.

Note that even an Annihilation Bullet couldn’t penetrate a tree trunk of one to two meters in diameter.

Impressive cards!

Perfect teamwork!

These three cards successfully created a safe distance between him and the wounded assassin.

The severely injured assassin, realizing he had been tricked, tried to roll over and escape, dragging his injured body.

Forced out of his stealth by the cards, Leonard Churchill instantly transformed into a werewolf

But, he was not about to let that assassin escape.

After a timely dodge, he used the tree trunk to propel himself towards the airborne assassin.

The explosive speed of his werewolf form far exceeded the expectations of the five-man Elite Squad.

After he had slit the assassin’s throat in mid-air, several cards belatedly arrived on the scene.

With a “thump,” the corpse hit the ground.

Not daring to linger after landing, Leonard Churchill, in his werewolf form, sprung back into the air.

The very instant his feet left the ground, he narrowly avoided a huge hand formed from a Land Elemental that had sprung up quickly from the ground.

Upon a sideways glance, Leonard Churchill squinted and exclaimed: “This is the power of the elite…”

From their coordinated actions alone, he knew this was most definitely the strongest five-man team he had ever encountered.

The cards thrown initially were six Sneaky Wind Blades and one Hand of Elements. A costly move that instantly consumed tens of thousands.

Such a tactic would be unthinkable for the average hunter to consider.

Thankfully, the assassin was quickly killed, otherwise the trouble would have been much greater.

“Are there only five of them…”

Hidden in the darkness, Leonard Churchill sniffed the air.

Now that the enemies had entered combat mode, their scents were given away.

He was now able to distinguish the unique smell of each of the four remaining opponents.

Certainly, these four wouldn’t abandon their teammate.

Seeing the assassin falling from a tree, unconscious, perhaps near death.

They slowly started to close in.

However, when they were around several dozens of meters away, they did not approach further.

At this point, the card master who was obviously a Magic Type, suddenly brought out a light brown card. Pouring his curse power into it, a Land Elemental Puppet began to take shape.

Observing this road-clearing puppet from the shadows, Leonard Churchill quickly guessed their intentions and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes: “They sure are cautious.”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

The Land Elemental Puppet moved ahead, and as soon as it was near the corpse, it set off several Mysterious Thunders that had been previously buried.

With this, the corpse lost its value as bait.

“Quite tricky…”

Watching this, Leonard Churchill realized it would be incredibly difficult to kill the remaining four head-on.

He had originally thought that by quickly killing one, injuring another with the Mysterious Thunder, or at least disrupting their formation, he would have the upper hand.

Now, only half of his plan had been accomplished.

Killing the remaining four had become significantly harder.

However, Leonard Churchill wasn’t in a rush.

He had a plan B.

He knew very well that the mission of this squad was to hunt him down.

They wouldn’t retreat without completing their mission, even if they were aware of the deadly danger at hand, this was definitely a tactical lure.

If Leonard Churchill were to pursue, he would inevitably fall into their trap.

But he wasn’t that foolish.

Weary of hiding, Leonard Churchill boldly revealed himself.

Dressed in a cloak and wearing a gas mask, his figure was unrecognizable.

Seeing he didn’t fall for their trap, the four revealed their battle forms.

By their outfits, one was a Spade A-Black Knight, one a Heart 3-Combat Doctor, a Diamond 8-Elemental Controller, and a Beast Walker that had transformed into a bear.

As Leonard Churchill scanned them, he acknowledged their strength but he didn’t feel threatened.

This was because none of them could catch up to him.

The only one to attract more than a passing glance was the bear, with its intense aura.

The “Terran Raging Bear” that could manipulate the Power of Elements and had incredible defense.

The Black Knight was also not easy to kill.

The two sides faced off against each other.

While Leonard Churchill was confident that he could kill any individual among these four, he wasn’t sure if he could gain an upper hand when they all four fought together.

There he stood, applying his cold gaze onto them, still unruffled.

Neither side spoke a word.

After a few seconds of standoff.

Suddenly, Leonard Churchill revealed a wicked grin.

He lifted his gun and shot a flare into the forest.

In an instant, the area was brilliantly illuminated.

Leonard Churchill always enjoyed a cruel joke from his past life that if you encounter a tiger in the wilderness, you don’t need to run faster than the tiger, you only need to run faster than your companions.

He was on his own, free to move as he pleased.

As for his opponents, not a single one among the Black Knight or the bear could run.

The beacon tower was not far from here.

Since a direct confrontation was out of the question, he had to create an opportunity.

As soon as the flare was released, the expressions of the four changed considerably.

They quickly guessed the intentions of Leonard Churchill.

The leading Black Knight decisively ordered: “Fall back!”

However, it was already too late.

Rustling sounds filled the forest, indicating that the Demon Corps had surrounded them.

Now that they were revealed, how could Leonard Churchill give them the opportunity to retreat smoothly?

He directly fired another flare.

With this, the demons were able to confirm their target immediately..
