Chapter 471: Chapter 169: City of Thieves, White Family

Before Leonard Churchill saw the real face of the split-mouthed woman, he had already considered several possible solutions to this situation.

He had even prepared himself to risk his life in a fight.

He thought that despite the existence of the Catastrophe Domain, it was still just a Tier 3 Catastrophe.

Even within this domain, it had a lethal strike that ignored defenses.

But while other hunters could die from a single strike, Leonard Churchill himself possessed a far superior agility attribute to a regular Third Tier entity, so it was not guaranteed that he would be killed.

And considering the “weakness” of the split-mouthed woman was that she cannot be directly seen by a third party, and the presence of Elder Clinton, a hidden powerhouse, there’s still a great deal of room to maneuver.

If all else fails, there were the Light and Dark Blood Clothes, and the weeping angel sealed within the Holy Nail…

Not all means of resistance were exhausted.

But all these contingency plans became meaningless.

The instant Leonard Churchill saw the real face of the split-mouthed woman, he already knew how to properly resolve the situation.

In fact, the earlier Enlightenments had already hinted at this Catastrophe entity’s weakness.

The grudge of the split-mouthed woman originated from “not being able to accept her own ugly appearance, and becoming a vengeful spirit due to suicide”.

Therefore, Leonard had guessed before.

The resolution to this Catastrophe’s rule, most likely has something to do with dissolving the grudge.

No matter if you answer “beautiful”, “ugly”, or “so-so”, none would be the right answer.

Language is just a medium, what actually matters are the genuine emotional fluctuations of the speaker.

If it feels beautiful, then it’s beautiful, if it feels ugly, then it’s ugly.

You can’t deceive yourself.

A vengeful spirit can sense such genuine mental fluctuations.

What it needs is true recognition.

But that disfigured face is not easily seen as beautiful.

This aesthetic sense does not resonate with normal humans.

As it happened, many alter egos in Leonard Churchill’s mind could genuinely appreciate such twisted and broken beauty.

With that in mind.

The last vestiges of the split-mouthed woman’s undead aura dissipated, and the Enlightenment appeared.

“Obtained the ‘Blessing of the split-mouthed woman’, Summer Shepherd City’s

Undead Affinity +10”

Seeing the Enlightenment, Leonard halted his glee, feeling like he had destroyed a magnificent work of art with his own hands, and he couldn’t feel any happiness about it.

At this moment, he heard a voice next to him, “Are you alright?

Leonard looked at Catherine Carter in his embrace, and his fleeting melancholy dissipated.

Catherine Carter looked amazed, she seemed to have been lost in a trance for a moment with a chill running through her body.

She was very aware that an evil spirit had attached itself to her.

But before she could make any move.

In the blink of an eye, Leonard was holding her, and the cold sensation had already vanished.

Had it been resolved?

Catherine was extraordinarily surprised too.

Although it is true that with rule-based Catastrophes, without the correct method to solve it, it becomes an unsolvable mystery;

But once a solution is found, the Catastrophe can be taken down immediately. However, reality was right before her eyes, it left her with a surreal feeling.

It seemed… too easy.

When she saw Leonard, blood was still pouring from the grotesque wound on his face.

Without waiting to ask anything else, she directly asked, “Your face… Shall I stitch it for you?”

She hadn’t seen how this wound was inflicted, but she knew it must have been related to the Catastrophe.

However, Leonard shook his head: “No need. I’ll take care of it myself.”

Warm blood trickled down his neck, staining a large portion of the front of his shirt.

He took out some surgical thread and a needle, touched the wound with his hand, and started stitching it up.

Seeing this, Catherine Carter looked surprised; his technique was highly proficient, she wouldn’t necessarily do a better job stitching it up than he would.

As if she had thought of something, she took out a mirror to help him see.

Leonard looked at his own reflection in the mirror, his stitching paused for a moment as if he was admiring the wound, and suddenly gave a wide grin.

The bloody wound was like a beautiful rose blooming on a skeleton, otherworldly and beautiful.

The wound extended to the root of his ear, exposing a terrifyingly dazzling smile.

His eyes were filled with icy sharpness: “It’s truly perfect…”

Without the split-mouthed woman, he himself could never have created such a perfect masterpiece.

Seeing Leonard Churchill, who was always a gentleman and elegant as “Baron Charles”, acting so unusually, Catherine frowned slightly, prepared for the worst.

At that moment, she even suspected the man before her had been possessed by the Catastrophe.

Fortunately, Leonard just laughed for a while and then started stitching carefully.

Soon, the wounds on both sides of his mouth turned into centipede-like stitches.

Usually, he would have used Cellular Activity Boiling to speed up the wound healing, but that kind of life-shortening method should be minimized unless it is a dire situation.

After applying a Potion, and with the natural healing ability of the Werewolf Bloodline, he quickly felt the ticklish sensation of new flesh growing.

Leonard took out the half-face gas mask again and put it on his face.

He turned his gaze to the Split-mouthed Woman’s Scissors on the ground, and took out a Containment Card to contain it.

Catastrophes above the Third Tier have a small chance of dropping “golden” materials.

Yet these scissors turned out to be even better, “Brilliant Gold .

In all the texts that Leonard had read, such quality of materials are almost considered treasures.

Rare and precious.

Selling this at auction in the Federation could fetch a sky-high bid, making it a scarce resource contested amongst top-tier nobles.

Probably only because of the high output of monsters in this ancient seal was the likelihood of such drops higher than in other places.

And it had the very rare aggressive Mental Matrix.

Both in terms of quality and usefulness as a material, it was top-notch.

Leonard looked at it and felt quite satisfied..
