Chapter 854: Chapter 268: That’s it, The First Under Heaven? (Hello, 2024)_3
At this command, the guard on his right side took orders and left, his body suddenly surrounded by a radiant red light, like a meteor, hurtling towards the distant battlefield at high speed.
Such speed!
By the time everyone could see clearly, the red streak of light was already trailing flames across the sky with a “boom,” directly smashing through the Iron Sand Prison Boundary.
Sophia Jones’s expression changed drastically when she saw the formidable enemy approaching, wanting to withdraw.
But things didn’t go as she wished.
The four knights under the king were already highly skilled fighters who coordinated seamlessly, all of them not only specialized Legendary Card Masters but also experts at combined attacks.
...
Seeing reinforcements arriving, the already struggling pair would never give Sophia Jones a chance to escape.
The “Forbidden Curse Master” Jolin sealed the surroundings with a hand of earth-elemental forbidden curses.
The “Four-eyed Weird Monk” Karan, disregarding defense, took a hit just to capture the Spear of God.
Even if it was just for a moment, it caused Sophia Jones to come to a halt.
“Whiz~”
“Boom!”
The flaming meteor hit Sophia Jones directly.
There was the sound of armor cracking in an instant.
It was as if the power of a volcanic eruption was unleashed at one point, with a “bang,” Sophia’s face turning white for a moment, followed by a spurt of blood.
“Pfft~”
Domineering and scorching elemental fire broke through her protective domain, the Divine Light on Sophia Jones dimmed abruptly, and she was sent flying a hundred meters backward by that immense force.
She crashed heavily onto the small building where Leonard Churchill was.
With a glance, Sophia Jones recognized the guy surrounded by flames and magma.
He was one of the masters from the generation before hers!
…
At the same time, the onlookers also recognized this highly recognizable move at a glance.
“This volcanic domain… could it be that guy?!”
“No way… another legendary figure who vanished has appeared.”
“I was wondering why there suddenly appeared some great masters, who then disappeared without a trace, it turns out they were Orlan Remnants!”
“No wonder… that guy’s Demon Mark and Profession Card, even his inheritance are all very complete and of a matching set. I was wondering where he got them from. Now it seems, only the Orlan Royal Family would have…”
“…”
While the younger generation had not seen this flame-covered Legendary Card Master.
But the older generation remembered him vividly.
He was the gold medalist of the last “World’s Number One Card Master Tournament” twenty years ago— “Red Dragon” Hogan!
This guy was universally acknowledged as the number one in the world back then!
His “Spade 9 – Calamity Bearer” Sixth Tier profession “Volcano” was extremely violent, and his personality also inclined towards slaughter.
It was because his opponents in the competition suffered ten deaths and seven severe injuries, ruining several promising seeds that had potential to become Legendary, that the Card Master Tournament was subsequently halted.
Regardless of how brutal Hogan’s methods were, his strength was recognized.
Back then, no one dared to provoke this madman-like individual.
It was only when he chose to disappear on his own that the legend of the “Bloodthirsty Red Dragon” gradually faded.
With the appearance of “Red Dragon” Hogan, everyone felt a sense of foreboding.
He was already the world’s number one twenty years ago, and now, it appeared he was even stronger than before.

…
From a distance, Catherine Carter’s expression was extremely grave: “This is troublesome now…”
What she feared most was that the New King of Orlan would disregard his own advancement and come to kill Leonard Churchill.
And now, that was exactly what was playing out.
Furthermore, such a preposterous source of support had arrived.
On this trip to Sinless City, the guards she brought were already few.
Combining forces with several other families, they could still put up a fight.
But those people might not be fully committed.
In the current situation, Catherine Carter was certain that those old foxes playing political games would rather preserve themselves and would definitely not want to end up in a lose-lose situation.
Even if they had agreed to join forces, they would undoubtedly stay back and have their own schemes.
Catherine Carter’s eyes darted around, her expression growing increasingly serious.
No matter how she pondered strategy, it seemed so pale in the face of absolute force.
She looked toward the valiant Lady Valkyrie in the distance, already struggling against three, and her gaze darkened as she thought, “Is this as far as we can go…?”
…
In the blink of an eye, Sophia Jones had engaged in over a dozen rounds of combat against three.
The three knights gave her no chance to breathe, pressing their combined attack and making her retreat step by step.
Leonard Churchill watched as the Lady Valkyrie was sent flying with blood spilling from her mouth, his own expression gravely serious.
His War God’s Golden Armor was riddled with traces of Law erosion, its brilliant golden light also greatly dimmed.
The crushing strength of three of the Same Tier was ultimately too much for her to handle alone.
“Boom” went the sound.
Another loud bang.
Volcano collided with the War God Light Shield, bursting apart.
Sophia Jones had originally planned to break through and reach Leonard Churchill to retreat with him, but the intent was too obvious, and the three blocked it together.
“Red Dragon” Hogan seized the opportunity to send her flying with another punch.
Sophia Jones was sent flying a hundred meters, crashing onto the Battle Formation Boundary of the small building she had been protecting, spewing out a mouthful of Crimson blood.
Due to severe injuries, the Barrier of the small building also collapsed at that moment.
She tried to stand and continue the fight, but the various injuries inside her body agitated like a boiling boiler, forcing her to spit out several mouthfuls of vile blood, unable to help herself.
Leonard Churchill, disregarding everything else, rushed over to help her up: “Aunt Jones!”
Had she not come to help him, she would never have fallen into such a dire situation.
Sophia Jones shook her head, seemingly indifferent.
Having made her choice, there were no thoughts of whether it was worth it or not.
She reached out to try to condense the Spear of God again, ready to continue the fight.
