Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 567: Chapter 194 Judgment_3

Even the “Red Shaman” from that B-class task was supposedly just a Fourth Tier B-class Catastrophe, it shouldn’t have forced that group into such a sorry state.

But the current situation looked like a large-scale battle, with disturbances raging across the mountains and both sides sparing no expense in a clash?

However, the intelligence had stated there were only a few Demon Corps near Ironforge City—where did all these monsters come from?

At that thought, Leonard Churchill’s expression grew subtly complicated.

He confirmed that the package had been opened.

And indeed, it was a decoy!

With that in mind, Leonard Churchill narrowed his eyes, his thoughts beginning to race, “However, speaking of which, what exactly is Mage Gandalf up to…”

In a normal war, the objective would be achieved by simply destroying the military stronghold of Ironforge City.

Even if the people inside fled, it would be something the Demon Camp would want to see even more.

That way, they could directly advance into the Delaney Kingdom’s hinterland.

But now, by blockading at all costs, Leonard couldn’t help but guess that the demons were surrounding some important person or intelligence!

The intensity of the interception even indirectly confirmed that the intelligence might have a direct connection with the Holy Grail.

Furthermore, Leonard had now speculated there was a mysterious “Great Personage” inside Ironforge City.

The thought process then became clear in an instant.

The so-called scouting teams of the Falcon Hunter Legion leaving the city were actually dispersed decoys.

It was a feint tactic.

The white-robed Magician Gandalf wanted to escort the “Great Personage” out of the city!

North of Ironforge City lay the Demon Mountain Range, southeast was the Ghost Wind Cavern, and southwest was the obligatory path to Parbo City, which they were now headed for.

But even so, the directions were too many.

Leonard couldn’t determine in which direction the “main force” was escaping.

At this thought, his mind flashed back to the military map he had seen in the City Lord Manor.

After the Demonic Solution, his photographic memory capability was further enhanced.

Previously, he needed to have read the content carefully to remember it.

But now, even if he hadn’t looked carefully, as long as he glanced over it, it would remain etched in his mind like a photograph.

For a certain period, he could recollect those contents he had seen.

Leonard tried hard to recall, and the scene in his mind seemed to flip back to that moment in the City Lord Manor.

Looking at the map on the table, he suddenly discovered something, “No… there are traces of fingernail dragging on the map! Those are the tactical arrangements of the twelve Non-Player Character scouting teams! Normally, the first batch to leave the city would be the decoys, so those directions can be excluded…”

Leonard’s brain began to work at high speed, eliminating each direction that might be a decoy.

After the elimination, he derived two coordinates on the map: “Twin Tower Cliff” and “Echo Falls”!

Like the scales on a dial, the further out each scale extended, the wider the coverage area became.

The two coordinates were dozens of kilometers apart.

But having thought this far, Leonard, without any hesitation, transformed into a Werewolf and charged towards Ironforge City at full speed.

He was still not certain which was the right way, he could only try his luck.

At least with a thought process, a fifty percent chance might be enough to encounter something!

…

The battle in the forest intensified more and more.

After Vivian White’s group set off the signal fireworks, thousands in the space rushed towards the rally point.

The Demon Vanguard in the forest also started to move.

The flames of war spread throughout the forest.

Before long, the Werewolf that Leonard had transformed into suddenly leapt onto a towering boulder, surveying the combat situation in the surrounding forest from a high vantage point.

Because as he ran, he suddenly realized something else.

Under the effect of the “Aura of the Gambler of Misfortune”, he felt he would probably guess wrong by relying on luck.

“Eh, based on the current intelligence, that ‘Great Personage’ possesses crucial intelligence, so the information about the Holy Grail must have been passed on by the human side. In other words, there was an insider within the human camp. Superior Demons are not lacking in wisdom, and they might not be fooled by a diversionary tactic. If I can think of it, others can too… and Magicians have very high intelligence…”

“Could it be that all these are just to mislead? That Mage Gandalf would’ve guessed that they wouldn’t be able to escape Ironforge City that easily…”

“And this ‘Battle of Ironforge’ is just the beginning of the war; it wouldn’t be so easy for the human camp to obtain the Holy Grail. So, the ‘Great Personage’ didn’t actually have the Holy Grail, but just had relevant clues… Could it be, they’re not trying to escape but to take the opportunity to find the Holy Grail?”

“Hiss, those guys, they wouldn’t have gone to Ghost Wind Cavern, would they?”

“…”

All of a sudden, Leonard figured it out.

From the adventurer’s perspective, he could see more intelligence.

Since the “Spatial Will” had given the clue of “Ghost Wind Cavern”, it had to be useful.

Leonard immediately concluded, “Twin Tower Cliff! This avoids the Demon Legion’s interception and can directly cross the mountain to the cavern!”

With that thought, he charged towards the coordinates on the map.
