Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 481: Chapter 171 Time Rule 3

The commonality they may all share could be: The Time Rules!

Though Colin could not accurately describe what he was feeling differently at this moment.

But with this reminder, Catherine Carter suddenly realized something and said in a deep voice, “Leonard, your hair has turned whiter.”

Leonard’s gaze narrowed a bit upon hearing this.

He finally realized where the danger of this ghost train lay.

“Neutral” was correct, but if there really was an issue with the flow of time, they could be trapped to death on the train without doing anything.

But that was the tricky part.

Even if they knew there was a problem with the flow of time, they could do nothing about it.

Catherine Carter did not lower her voice when she said this, so the other hunters also heard it.

The pioneer hunters who came for the bounty weren’t as mentally prepared as Leonard and his three companions.

Upon hearing that there might be a problem with the flow of time, they all started to panic!

“Hey… Old Brook, what do we do now?”

“Damn it, we shouldn’t have boarded this ghost train in the first place.”

“Quick, think of a solution, see if we can fix this problem.”

“Limp Cliff, you go and check out the other carriages!”

“Alright.”

The carriage was only this big; they could see its end at a glance.

A few of them discussed, and one person got up from his seat and walked towards another carriage.

There was a frosted glass door between the carriages. Covered by the dark Undead Air, they couldn’t see clearly the situation in the next carriage, so they had to go there personally.

However, it was this action that led to an eerie scene.

Limp Cliff pushed open the glass door leading to the rear carriage and disappeared into the darkness.

But almost the next second after he disappeared, the door to the front carriage also opened.

Everyone’s gaze immediately moved over, only to be shocked. For some reason, that guy actually came out from the front carriage!

“Limp Cliff, how did you come from the front?”

Just as someone spoke in a surprised voice.

Everyone’s gaze turned from surprise to horror.

Because at this moment, they saw drastic changes happening to Limp Cliff.

A bizarre white light seemed to stir around him, his originally dark skin rapidly aged, wrinkles appearing, and his muscles quickly withered.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

It was as if some mysterious force had taken his life away, and he aged decades in an instant.

Before anyone could understand what had happened, the white-haired old man’s eyes had lost their vitality. His body collapsed in an instant, turning into pieces of paper-like flakes and disappearing into the train.

Even Leonard and the others gasped when they saw this.

He finally understood what might have happened to the pioneer hunters who boarded the train before.

They probably didn’t disembark at any station.

Instead, they were likely consumed by this “Catastrophe Domain,” becoming nourishment.

Upon witnessing this scene, Limp Cliff’s companions were stunned.

A sense of despair and terror instantly filled the entire carriage.

It wasn’t just an issue with the flow of time.

They were now trapped!

Unable to leave!

After standing dumbfounded for a moment, the six surviving individuals rushed about anxiously like ants on a hot pan.

The man with the sideburns seemed to have thought of something; he led the others and rushed in front of Leonard and his friends.

Glancing at the four calmly seated individuals, the man with the sideburns hysterically demanded, “What the hell is happening! Why are you guys still fine if something’s wrong! And what did the train attendant tell you just now?!”

Facing death, they did not care about being polite; they just wanted to seize any chance of survival.

Leonard and his friends didn’t have any idea what was going on either.

They had no answer of course.

He didn’t feel like bothering with this group of guys.

Seeing that the few of them were ignoring them, the sound of firearms being loaded rang out, and the dark muzzles of the guns were uniformly pointed at their heads.

Unfortunately, this kind of weapon was useless against card masters of Second Tier and above.

Not to mention that the Pioneer Hunters were all impoverished Card Disciples, the regular bullets in their magazines posed no threat at all.

Leonard Churchill was sitting on the outside, with several guns against his head, but his expression didn’t change at all.

He was attentively observing the changes in their appearance.

The more emotional they became, the more noticeable their aging was.

The bearded chap, who was being ignored, couldn’t hold back his emotions that were already on the edge of crashing.

His eyes hardened, and he pulled the trigger.

After a burst of gunshots, the bullets fell with a clink, clink, clink onto the ground.

Leonard Churchill still sat there undisturbed.

Seeing this, the six people led by the bearded man backed away in great horror.

Looking at Leonard Churchill, who was unscathed, they realized they were dealing with a High Tier card master!

However, they couldn’t understand why there was such a powerful presence within the Pioneer squad.

Leonard Churchill continued to sit there, deep in thought, with no intention of killing them.

A few more survivors under these circumstances would be better.

However, at this moment, Catherine Carter beside him worriedly said, “Your hair…”

Without looking, Leonard Churchill knew he had more white hair.

That’s because he had just used the Curse Power Protective Barrier.

He glanced at Catherine Carter across from him and casually said, “You’ve changed too.”

Catherine Carter hesitated for a moment before she realized what he meant.

It wasn’t her hair turning white.

It was her chest becoming noticeably tight.

She was of tender age, and her body was still a bit undeveloped.

But in just a blink of an eye, her chest had filled out, and she had started to have a somewhat mature allure.

The young miss of the Lionheart Family clearly knew what Leonard Churchill was referring to, and her tone betrayed no emotion as she said, “You observe quite carefully.”

With that statement, the atmosphere filled with despair wasn’t as tense anymore.

Leonard Churchill just chuckled. He had reached a conclusion in his heart, saying, “Our consciousness doesn’t feel the change in the passage of time, but the rate of time our bodies are enduring is… Thousands or tens of thousands of times faster. Even if we do nothing, time is still accelerating. And the more intense the energy fluctuations are, the faster the life force drains.”

Catherine Carter also nodded her head.

The changes in the four of them weren’t too drastic because of their small fluctuations.

However, the Pioneer Hunters across from them were in such a panic that the aging on their faces was already visible to the naked eye.

None of them expected that as soon as they arrived in this Mysterious Realm, they would face such a big problem.

The Time Domain, which silently steals away a person’s life.

If this continued, even if they could survive till the train arrived, their lifespan would probably be almost drained away.

Yet, for Leonard Churchill and his party, this wasn’t the case.

After analyzing the effect of this Catastrophe Domain, Leonard Churchill directly looked at Elder Clinton sitting in the corner.

Although he had some other methods to try, this one was obviously the best.

Understanding instantly, Catherine Carter was a bit apprehensive, but she also glanced over.

She had no ideas to solve the situation and could only rely on him.

Colin didn’t understand why, but seeing both Leonard Churchill and Catherine Carter looking, he also looked over.

Elder Clinton felt a chill as he was stared at and asked with a despicable expression on his face, “What… what do you guys want to do?”

Leonard Churchill chuckled, “Elder, whether we survive or not depends on you…”

The Time Domain, this invisible killing blade, was a deadly threat to others.

But for this old guy, it wasn’t necessarily so.

And judging from the way the train attendant poured tea earlier, this old man’s situation was even more mysterious than it seemed.
