Chapter 747: Chapter 241: Sacrifice to Bolton Mechanical Town (Seeking Monthly Pass)_4
That is to say, Mr. Leonard Churchill had foreseen the current situation a long time ago!
Leonard Churchill narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce, thinking to himself, “Ah, my guess was right…”
I wasn’t sure before.
Seeing that those from the Rose Chamber of Commerce could escape alive from Machinery City, he confirmed that the “mastermind” who had previously hired assassins to kill Vera Williams might have arrived.
The mastermind who could arrange the previous series of assassination plans had a deep and evident scheme.
It seemed that he also had a good understanding of Vera Williams’s character and thus guessed that she might not have fled.
That led to the current plan.
Otherwise, given Leonard Churchill’s understanding of the Old Days Sect, if those people dared to cause such a big commotion to blood sacrifice an entire city, they surely had the capability to annihilate everyone from the Rose Chamber of Commerce.
Now letting them go could only mean they were bait.
Upon further thought, he realized that vampires were sparse on the route they had chosen, clearly by design.
It seemed they were waiting for some “expert” who could spot the flaws in the sacrificial formation, then a High-Tier vampire would come to deliver the killing blow.
Or maybe, they never intended to confront capable escapees, like High-Order Card Masters, head-on.
However, the vampires Leonard Churchill and his group had encountered along the way were instantly killed, and they didn’t expose too much commotion.
If Leonard truly wanted to escape, he could also slip away silently.
Now, that group of vampires had chased the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce in his direction.
Leonard Churchill watched with an amused expression.
Vera Williams was also smart; despite her anxiety, she forced herself to calm down.
Seeing the people from the Commerce Guild being chased and killed, she realized there might be a conspiracy.
But she was helpless and could only look at Leonard Churchill for help.
She didn’t dare to speak out loud.
Because Vera knew that she owed her life to this friend.
But strong as he might be, he was only one man.
Just as Vera was filled with despair, thinking she could only watch as her comrades died,
suddenly, a question of utmost indifference reached her ears, “Do you want to save them?”
Vera was stunned, thinking she had heard wrong.
But when she turned her head to look at that face, unchanged from beginning to end, she paused for two seconds before realizing it, and asked excitedly but uncertainly, “Mr. Leonard Churchill… Can we… do it?”
Leonard Churchill looked at the group in the distance, pondered for a moment, and said indifferently, “We can try.”
Lastly, he added, “But I can’t guarantee how many can be saved.”
Upon hearing this, Vera’s eyes instantly lit up, and she nodded vigorously, “Yes!”
At that moment, she felt as if she heard the most exciting words in the world.
Having been together for a few days, this young miss from the financial conglomerate had come to trust Leonard Churchill almost boundlessly.
As if whatever he said, he could definitely make it happen!
Vera looked at his seemingly glowing profile and felt there was a strange allure to it, then she added, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, please, I’m counting on you. If… if it’s too dangerous, please ensure your safety first.”
Leonard Churchill wasn’t trying to show off.
Rather, he had other plans.
Because according to Old Williams’s directions about fate, Leonard couldn’t change anything.
That is to say, Vera Williams wouldn’t die here.
And if Vera Williams wasn’t going to die, then he likely wouldn’t die either.
Otherwise, if he died here, Vera wouldn’t come looking for him a hundred years later.
Since he wasn’t going to die, Leonard Churchill’s thoughts became active.
The Old Days Sect might be dangerous, but it was also a Big Chance.
From what he had encountered, the matters involving the Old Days Believers were always top-level secrets of civilization.
Seeing these vampires who hadn’t yet become a real threat, he believed it might be possible to take action.
There might even be a surprise waiting.
Besides, Leonard Churchill’s interest in the mysterious Old Day Deity, filled with great mystery, was growing stronger.
Looking at the energy on the bodies of the chasing vampires, Leonard Churchill smiled and mumbled to himself, “So, they really thought I was just Second Tier…”
