Chapter 524: 182_2
However, before the terrifying energy of the spell could corrode him, Leonard Churchill suddenly felt the pressure abruptly evaporate.
Looking up, he saw Reuel Bible standing in front of him.
At this moment, his exaggeratedly muscular body was laid bare, with dark red Charm Energy Overflow flowing like flames. Behind him was the Demon God’s Phantom of a hawk-headed, horse-bodied figure, undoubtedly the underworld judge Damantis!
Taking the hit head-on, the countless Evil Ghosts trapped by the ‘Heavenly King’s Curse Body’ howled in pain, and their Killing Intent surged by another three points.
Without a chance to catch his breath, Reuel Bible quickly said, “Find a chance and run for your life!”
There was absolutely no time for further explanations.
Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill knew the situation was critical and he responded promptly, “Okay!”
If he did not have Reuel Bible by his side, these people could kill him with ease.
Just after blocking the attack, Reuel Bible saw that the individuals were about to release a combined spell. His expression changed, and he shouted, “Go!”
The combat power of the Judging Office enforcers was terrifying, and no outsider understood it better than him.
Now, the only way out was to somehow escape.
With that, Reuel Bible created a breach while covering Leonard Churchill, and the two of them dashed towards the edge of the ruins.
The five individuals gave chase relentlessly.
Leonard Churchill’s speed as a werewolf was not slow, but the five pursuers kept up with him without falling behind even a little bit.
Fortunately, with Reuel Bible restraining them all the way, they had barely managed to avoid being caught up to.
Even so, Leonard Churchill felt danger everywhere.
It was the first time he had experienced the oppressive sensation that every step he took was a death trap when being hunted down by a High Tier card master.
These guys were simply too strong.
…
Reuel Bible’s attention was constantly focused on the man with the handlebar mustache.
He knew very clearly that if he let his guard down even for a moment when that man made a move, Leonard Churchill would surely die.
However, it seemed that the opposition also figured this out.
The five-member Judging Office squad were more than just their strong captain, all five of them were elite fighters!
Probably having anticipated that Reuel Bible would do everything in his power to protect Leonard, they hadn’t revealed their hidden methods.
Since they had chosen to besiege, they were prepared for it.
After running for so long, that spell was finally completed!
Suddenly, one of the men in glasses and a suit stopped. He took out a playing card.
After infusing it with charm power, the card displayed the figures of a knight in armor, a chariot, and a wild beast.
And as the charm energy poured in, the figure, like a virtual projection, was cast from the card into reality, forming a semi-transparent spirit chariot.
Witnessing this scene, Reuel Bible’s pupils contracted sharply, “Cursed Tarot· The Chariot!”
This was a famous ancient artifact in the X Bureau headquarters warehouse. How could he not recognize it?
This artifact was a mysterious-type attack that almost guaranteed the death of those it locked onto.
However, even upon realization, Reuel Bible was powerless to intervene.
He was alone, and if he tried to interfere, another person would simply take the opportunity to attack Leonard.
Moreover, the opposition had been preparing for so long that they had left him no opportunities.
“Damn it!”
Reuel Bible cursed in his heart, his face darkened by the overwhelming sense of powerlessness.
Leonard too saw the ghostly chariot and felt a sense of danger.
Without the Clown mask, he was like an unprotected target in the face of a mysterious system spell.
However, even at this moment, there wasn’t a hint of panic on Leonard’s face. “Old Bible, don’t worry about me, just go!”
With such a major power difference, he had no means to save his life. Without any hesitation, he wanted to pull out the Dark Holy Nail that he held in his hand anyway.
Reuel Bible didn’t try to stop him.
If it really came down to a fight for one’s life, he had no choice but to deal with the potential danger of unleashing the weeping angel.
Moreover, he also knew it was too late.
If the X Bureau operated as a team, they would surely have excellent teamwork.
Now that they had taken action, they were sure to strike a fatal blow.
Just as Leonard was about to pull out the Holy Nail, he suddenly found that the space around him appeared to solidify. He instantly became motionless!
Catching a glimpse from the corner of his eyes, he saw another man in a suit releasing a card from his hand that had a big hand drawn on it, the fourth-tier Mystery Class spell— Mystery·Hunter’s Hand!
This was originally a control-type spell that prioritized finesse over force. With two superior tiers restraining him, Leonard was completely immobilized, no matter how strong he was.
The binding force became tighter and tighter, like a wrung-out washcloth, the muscles made a crackling sound as if they were about to snap.
Leonard couldn’t move a single finger.
Reuel Bible wanted to rush over to help, but the team leader with the handlebar mustache timely blasted him with a punch, causing his vitality and blood to tumult.
But whether he could rush to help or not, the situation was already irreversible.
The moment Leonard was bound, the ghostly chariot from afar accelerated and instantly traversed hundreds of meters.
It was still at the edge of his vision just a moment ago, but in an instant, it had already phased through.
The Ghost Chariot seemed to have directly destroyed a man’s spirit. With widened eyes, Leonard fell, dead on the spot!
…
Dead?
Looking at it, Reuel Bible became furious and yells, “Damn it, what did you guys do!”
Although he had failed himself in life, he had never failed a friend!
He didn’t know why the higher-ups in the Bureau had sent people from the Judging Office to kill.
But no matter what, Leonard’s involvement with the X Bureau all started with him, Reuel Bible!
He hadn’t even had a chance to explain the incident where he was betrayed by his assistant, and now the man was killed?
Looking at the body of Leonard lying there, Reuel Bible was filled with rage.
Just for an instant, he even felt like killing these colleagues, but he felt it would be pointless.
