Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 146: Assail the Flood Gang

Translator: 549690339

Seeing Camilla rescued, Leonard Churchill quietly put away the Light and Dark Holy Nail hidden in his sleeve.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

The manor had plunged into chaos by this point, which gave him the chance to retreat back into the main building unobserved.

Reuel Bible, watching Leonard return, relaxed the eyebrows he had been furrowing for some time.

He had been prepared to play the supporting role up till now, hoping to somehow keep Leonard alive at all costs.

But he didn’t expect this significant turn of events.

Still, the fact that it hadn’t come to blows was a good thing.

Looking at a relieved Reuel Bible, Leonard said, “Thankyou.”

The favor of his support was indeed a great one.

Reuel Bible shook his head without much concern, only asking, “What… is going on this time?”

He had asked before, he knew that this guy wasn’t from the Thirteen Knights, which confused him.

Leonard heard this and a flicker of something unfamiliar flashed across his eyes. He shrugged and said, “I don’t know either.

Reuel Bible had a strange look upon hearing this.

The person he would risk his life to save, he didn’t know who they were? He thought for a moment, and then sighed, “Your friend… is quite special.”

There were a few just now, and now another Orlan Remnant had appeared.

And one who had fused with the Epic Source Card – Diamond Q-White Queen,

at that.

Any way he looked at it, the situation was not simple.

Everyone had witnessed the absurd combat power just now. A Third Tier card master who could carry out full Demonic Solutions was simply unheard of.

Reuel Bible let out a long sigh.

Leonard didn’t show any strange expressions upon hearing this.

No matter what Camilla’s identity was, a friend was a friend, nothing else mattered.

It was good as long as she was alive.

Reflecting on it, Leonard asked, “Leader Bible. How much do you know about the ‘Thirteen Knights’?”

“Quite a bit.”

Reuel Bible muttered.

The X Bureau is, after all, a department that deals with special incidents. Even the most confidential files that ordinary people can’t access can be easily reached by them.

There had been numerous bizarre cases involving the Thirteen Knights, and Reuel Bible had personally handled quite a few of them.

He thought for a moment and said, “The historical trail of this organization can be traced back even longer than the Orlan Dynasty. I’ve even seen the shadow of this organization in some ancient archives within the Bureau, they used to call it ‘Illumination Secret Society’. They’re like shadows from history that most people can’t see, but they’ve always existed. But that’s all I know. This organization has a few members and a rigid structure. To any outsiders, they are very mysterious.”

Upon listening, Leonard asked again: “Does ‘Thirteen Knights’ mean there are thirteen people?”

Reuel Bible replied: “It used to be. But who knows now.”

Leonard picked up on a word: “Used to be?”

Reuel Bible said: “Yes. Two hundred years ago, this organization directly participated in the Bloody Fog Coup that brought about the downfall of the Orlan Dynasty. At that time, thirteen Legendary Card Masters with incredibly powerful combat strength joined the battle. It was from this battle that it earned its name. Without the Thirteen Knights, the Orlan Dynasty, which had been cultivating many court priests, couldn’t have collapsed so easily.

It was Leonard’s first time hearing these secrets.

Reuel Bible continued, “However, the final Battle at the Court was extremely fierce. Of the Thirteen Knights, eight died in battle, and the survivors were critically injured. Following this, they disappeared for a long time. It seems that they haven’t gathered the full thirteen members yet. At least according to the documents in the Bureau, in the past few decades, only a few have shown their faces.”

Leonard came to an understanding: “Oh.

The Thirteen Knights may not have thirteen members at present.

After a pause, Reuel Bible added: “After all, the threshold for recruitment for that organization is extremely high, so it’s normal for them to have fewer members. That’s why I said your friend is very special.”

Thinking of the ‘Lamp Bearer’ Vince Lane who had attempted an assassination at Thunderbolt Fortress, the ‘Night Enforcer’ Rem he had just encountered, and

then Camilla…

He noticed a common point and curiously asked, “Does their organization only recruit members who have fused with the 52 Epic Origin Cards?

“That’s just one of the thresholds.”

As Reuel Bible spoke, he said, “The most important thing is that you have to agree with the philosophy of their organization.”

Leonard was genuinely interested: “Oh?”

Reuel Bible replied: “I’m not too clear on the specifics. All I know is that the Thirteen Knights are a group of people with dogged beliefs. The history of their organization may be even older than anyone can imagine. They’ve inherited many ancient archives that outsiders couldn’t possibly imagine. They know many historical truths that others do not. What exactly they want to do, no one knows. But based on what they’ve done, they’ve instigated wars, caused disputes, participated in coups, assassinations… they’ve done quite a bit, and there’s probably a lot more we don’t know about. If we judge purely by the number of deaths they’ve caused, they’re unforgivable. But…”

He trailed off here, his expression revealing a hint of conflict. After a moment s hesitation, he clicked his tongue, “Since I’m not familiar with them, it’s not my place to say.”

To summarize, “Thirteen Knights” is an extremist organization hell-bent on creating chaos in the world.

This is how the Federation, and even the previous Orlan Dynasty, has always characterized this organization.

As a law enforcer, Reuel Bible used to think the same way.

But after witnessing ‘Lamp Bearer’ Vince Lane assassinate Young Master Kane, his beliefs started wavering.

Only he, as someone who also follows the Path of Order, could understand that a person who could represent absolute justice and fairness could never belong to an evil group.

That is the point he finds contradictory.

There are too many mysteries surrounding the “Thirteen Knights.”
