Chapter 530: Chapter 184: Death Sonata_2

Catherine Carter was silent for a moment before uttering two words: “The omen of extreme misfortune.”

At her words, Leonard Churchill’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He had never seen such a grave and solemn expression on the face of the eldest miss of the Lionheart family.

After a moment of thought, he inquired, “What does ‘the omen of extreme misfortune’ mean?”

Catherine Carter’s tone was devoid of any emotion as she rephrased her previous statement: “Certain death.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill’s expression only stiffened for a moment, as if he had instantly accepted this outcome.

His face showed no worry, he just joked, “What if it doesn’t come true?”

Catherine Carter shook her head and softly spoke “This gold coin was given to my Lionheart family by Senior Clinton two hundred years ago.”

Hearing this, Leonard Churchill also realized the gravity of the situation: “Oh.”

If the gift is from Elder Clinton, it’s likely to be accurate.

But... Oh?

Catherine Carter was originally pondering where the scourge of death would come from.

However, hearing Leonard Churchill’s nonchalant reply, she suddenly thought of something else and turned to ask him, “I’ve noticed that you always seem fearless, no matter what the situation.”

It’s a dead-end now!

Do you understand it’s a dead-end?!

Life could shatter as easily as a vase.

Never to return.

Looking at Catherine Carter, who seemed to have been curious for quite some time, Leonard Churchill smiled and said what was on his mind, “Since it’s a dead end, I’m wondering in what way I will leave this world.”

As he spoke, it was as if he had already envisioned the scene, “Hopefully... it will be a brilliant and spectacular finale.”

Listening to this, Catherine Carter frowned, finding his response absurd, “Aren’t you afraid at all?”

Now, there is no mysterious Senior Clinton, and he carries no life-preserving artifacts; the entire city is filled with enemies.

Before he could say anything, Catherine Carter made a face resembling a grimace. After a moment’s hesitation, she bent over and began to disassemble the External Mechanical Exoskeleton while saying, “Get on it, let me carry you.”

Leonard Churchill, without any pretense, smiled: “Alright.”

After the removal of the Mechanical Skeleton, Catherine Carter squatting on the ground tried to lift Leonard Churchill onto her back.

Due to her unfamiliarity and fear of aggravating his injury with too much movement, she struggled to lift him.

But as an Extraordinary Man, even as a Technique Type, she finally managed to lift him onto her back.

The eldest miss of the Lionheart family walked rather awkwardly, bearing a person on her back, spent quite an effort to climb over the broken walls, and they both nearly fell onto the ruins.

Leonard Churchill teased her, “I’m about to fall.”

Catherine Carter ignored him, did not even turn around to let him see her expression, and vaguely said, “Hey, you, learn to appreciate what you have. Never in my life did I ever carry anyone else. You are the first one.”

Leonard’s lips curled slightly, “So, that’s why.”

Lying on a woman for the first time, he looked at his miserable state, and he was more self-mocking.

But now, it seemed he had understood.

He understood why the mysterious man had seriously injured him.

With Leonard Churchill on her back, Catherine Carter walked through the ruins.

However, this area was dense with monsters, and Leonard Churchill’s “unlucky gambler” aura did not give him any good luck.

Not long after, they ran into another wave of monsters.

What’s worse, was that the fighting noise inevitably attracted the hunters who were searching for them in the city.

...

In no time, the battle was over.

There were five bodies lying on the ground.

All the corpses had a bullet hole in their foreheads.

This was an elite reconnaissance squad, all were card masters of the first or second-tier assassin types.

Even though Leonard Churchill and Catherine Carter were severely injured, they were able to easily eliminate this squad.
