Chapter 9: Chapter 8 Cards and Materials_2

The gap in strength was so vast that Leonard Churchill had no chance of resisting.

But in fact, there was no need for her to take action personally.

If she really wanted to kill a person to keep them silent, she could have used the monster to kill himself during their previous battle.

But she did not do that.

She would rather go through the trouble herself, refraining from the act of betraying after gaining benefit, she tried her best to avoid involving him in the battle.

She completely adhered to their previous agreement.

Of course, if he wasn't sure about this point before collaborating, it wasn't just the Fallen Witch that Leonard Churchill would have targeted with that shot. Even at the risk of getting killed by the monster, he would have shot this teammate first.

....

"This is a Healing Potion."

The girl no longer seemed troubled.

She threw a red potion towards Leonard Churchill instead, and said, "I obtained a very rare material. If you can make it out alive, I will settle your share."

She didn't mention about paying him this time but about repaying the money.

Leonard Churchill caught the potion and laughed as he downed it in one gulp.

The fact that he wasn't betrayed was in itself a good fortune, there was no need to ask for a settlement.

He naturally noticed the silver glow on the corpses and found it fascinating.

They really "dropped the loot?"

The girl drew a dagger tied to her thigh in silence, and fiddled with the monster's corpse a bit, taking out a semi-transparent object like amber.

She thought Leonard Churchill wanted to see the material, so she indicated, "This."

Fallen Witch's Secondary Mutated Pituitary Gland

Quality: Excellent Shining Silver

Description: An extremely rare mental-type material, containing concentrated Disaster Power;

Leonard Churchill looked over, the amber was wrapped in a mental power field similar to the previous monster, but more terrifying.

Looking carefully, it seemed as if the sensory world was distorted.

Enlightenment appeared again: 'Affected by psychic contamination, confusion+3'

Leonard Churchill twitched at the corner of his eyes, this thing was a radiation source.

The girl with the mechanical arm didn't look at it for long, she took out a blank card and said in a low voice, "Contain!"

The Hexagram Array on the back of the card lit up, the pituitary gland disappeared on the spot, and then the image that exactly replicated the material just now appeared on the front of the originally blank card.

The psychic contamination was also gone in an instant.

Leonard Churchill watched in awe: Spatial Storage Card?

Yet another card with magical effects.

Having obtained the material, the girl with the mechanical arm's eyes became a bit complex while looking at the card in her hand.

Originally, she only wanted to find a material from a witch, but unexpectedly got an extremely top-tier one.

The best material quality that a First Tier Catastrophe could yield is "Silver", and there was a very small probability of yielding the premium "Shining Silver", a rare material superior to ordinary silver.

However, to her surprise, she now got a Shining Silver material with an "Excellent" prefix.

The odds were almost one in a million.

She had clearly felt the powerful mental power in the material the moment she touched it, it was the most ideal material for her to make Profession Cards!

After all, this was an unheard-of Secondary Mutation Catastrophe.

The girl didn't think much, picked up the card that slowly integrated out of the corpse in the white light, and said, "I need the material. I'll give you this card. Your mental powers are good, it would be handy to keep you alive."

With that, she flicked her finger, sending the card flying towards him without any greed.

Leonard Churchill caught it easily and took a look.

Witch's Gaze

Quality: Silver

Description: A one-time Silver Skill Card, consumes 1 point of mental power, it can cause psychic contamination to targets up to Second Tier within 5*5m range after use, causing at least 1 second of continuous mental hypnosis, the control time is influenced by the target's mental power;

Earlier in the battle, Leonard Churchill saw a card that could transform into Wind Blade being used by his teammates, so he wasn't surprised when he saw this skill card.

The area-mind control, the effect of this card is very strong, its value is absolutely not cheap.

He still asked, "This... is for me?"

The girl with an unprofitable expression, casually said, "This is what you deserve."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill didn't hesitate to look at the card.

One side of the card had a symbol of an eye, the other was the mystical Hexagram Array.

It was his first encounter with such an amazing item and he found it quite intriguing.

But how to use this thing?

The girl seemed to understand his confusion, and kindly offered some advice: "This is a mental power card, quite rare. As you hold onto the Hexagram Array, you'll naturally discover how to use it."

Hearing this, Leonard gave it a try.

In an instant, it felt as if he was holding a gun, trigger beneath his index finger, seemingly able to activate it with just a thought.

What a great item...

Just one card could put the target into hypnosis. If that wasn't magic, what was?

Leonard played with the card, his interest in this mysterious world deepening.

He seemed completely unfazed, as if he had just experienced something incredible and not come back from the brink of death.

However, the expression in the mechanical arm girl's eyes wasn't as composed anymore.

She had found the material she needed, moreover, it was ten times better than she had anticipated, and her goal for undertaking this adventurous mission was accomplished.

The only tiny disadvantage was that someone had seen her extraordinary talent.

But that wasn't a big issue.

The problem was the current unusual changes in the Alternate Dimension!

...

They had managed to kill the Fallen Witch efficiently thanks to their decisive battle and somewhat harmonious cooperation, without wasting a lot of time.

But not long after they killed the monster, the outside noise of concentrated firepower suddenly fell silent.

She didn't know whether the others outside had died or retreated back to the first floor, but either way, the situation wasn't looking good.

The mechanical arm girl, ever cautious, dashed towards the iron gate and stuck two cards onto it: "Barrier, activate!"

The door lock was already opened and now, they needed to prohibit the monsters from barging in.

The Barrier Card could temporarily seal their aura, but it couldn't last for long.

As the mechanical arm girl felt the situation outside, her expression became more and more serious.

They needed to make a decision quickly.

...

The mechanical arm girl also suffered seemingly serious injuries during the previous battle.

After taking some potions, she put her gas mask back on and replaced her damaged outfit with a spare mechanical exoskeleton.

Leonard quietly watched from the side.

Probably sensing his gaze, the mechanical arm girl spoke without turning around, her voice cold: "This barrier won't last long. In 'Escape and Kill Mode', hiding in the room is useless, as monsters will actively hunt humans. Outside, I can sense the energy fluctuations of at least ten strong monsters. They will surely come soon..."

Under normal circumstances, everyone hides in the room at night and the monsters are triggered passively.

Aside from something like a Fallen Witch that could pass through walls, only a few unlucky people will be randomly taken away by occasional wandering monsters. So, there's little danger.

After three days, you could leave.

But now, without finding the exit, nobody could live to leave.

With her words, she implied that she wanted to make a heroic escape sooner rather than later, perhaps there was a fighting chance.

You were on your own.

"..."

Leonard listened to her words, but wore an unconcerned expression.

She had already done enough by not betraying him before. He didn't expect her to lend a hand at this critical juncture.

At a life-and-death moment, no one would want to carry a burden.

Yet, at this moment, his expression subtly changed.

Not only is her combat power strong, she has a keen perception, and crucially doesn't hoard equipment...

Isn't she an ideal teammate?

Leonard processed all the available information carefully in his head.

He felt that he has grasped some of the key aspects of this space.

The mechanical arm girl, having adjusted her breathing, looked as if she was ready to charge out of the cracked door on her own.

But at that moment, Leonard abruptly spoke up: "Are you... interested in continuing our cooperation?"
