But the end was visible now.

The armored screen was removed and the train attendants started to clean up.

Soon, a barely breathing “Iron Fist” Rocky was stretchered out to the medical room, probably kept alive to explain the incident.

Carriages 15 and 16 were a mess with corpses scattered all over.

With no help, the Blackwater Mercenary Group, comprising just over a dozen people, had been hammered by the black ape, leaving only one survivor.

Leonard Churchill squeezed through the crowd and carefully examined the bodies on the ground.

The assassin was torn in half, the brain of the brown-haired mentalist woman was crushed by the black ape, and the guy who possibly had an olfactory gift had his chest caved in by the black ape…

All the trackers he had seen before.

Leonard breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

From the current situation, almost all the people from the Blackwater Mercenary Group on the train were dead.

Even if “Iron Fist” Rocky is alive, his influence won’t be significant.

The few perceptual trackers that Leonard was worried about were all dead, and the crisis was immediately averted.

With this, he finally felt reassured and started enjoying the spectacle.

The original position of the iron gate at the rear of the carriage had turned into a large torn hole, the black ape was nowhere to be seen.

The train administrator was patching up the hole with iron plates.

“Boss, what do we do with these bodies?”

“Throw them off the train. Leave a few for the people from the Blackwater Mercenary Group to collect. Remember to use the Alchemy Potion to deal with them, be careful not to cause any corpse mutation.”

“Yes.”

A few train attendants picked up the bodies of the card masters, and the remaining corpses of the mercenaries were all thrown off.

These bodies would serve as “evidence” and were kept in the carriage.

Soon, the carriage was almost clean. The passengers from carriages 15 and 16, who had squeezed into other carriages, were now back.

Although there were no seats, the hunters didn’t mind and sat on the floor, playing cards and telling stories, it was still lively.

Yet, a pair of eyes landed on the metal box containing bodies in the corner of the carriage.

Bodies…

These were valuable items.

Looking at the box with residual curse energy, Leonard turned his eyes, scanned the surroundings, and walked over.

The crowd around provided cover, and the corner light was broken and had not been repaired. He pretended to rest in the dark and used the Feast skill.

With this, the extraordinary traits kept flowing into his body endlessly.

‘You used Feast Devour, physique +0.003’

‘You used Feast Devour, strength +0.005’

‘You used Feast Devour, tenacity +0.0009’

‘You used Feast Devour, water elemental affinity +0.04’

Even though the corpses of these card masters were processed, the residual curse power was much less than when they had just died.

But in comparison, it was still much stronger than the card master apprentices in the alternate dimension he experienced before.

There were still several hours remaining of the train journey, Leonard casually sat next to the box, quietly absorbing the power.

Just as Leonard was devouring the residual extraordinary traits from the bodies, in the first carriage of the train, the traveling priests from the Hunter’s Association gathered, discussing the recent incident.

“There’s a clear lingering touch of disaster in carriage 16. It seems that ‘Lone Wolf’ Baron did bring out the relic found at the Silver Moon Altar.”

“Without containment, the disaster level of that ancient relic could be very high.”

“Unfortunately, the alertness of the King Kong demon ape after transforming is too strong, he jumped off as soon as we got close.”

“Unexpectedly, the Blackwater Mercenary Group discovered Baron first. Strange. Were they also after that relic?”

“Could be not a Blackwater Group’s idea.”

“You mean…the Miller family?”

“Yes. The Blackwater people came to me before, wanting to delay the departure without giving any reason. I didn’t understand why. Just now, the camp sent a message that an S grade clearance was accomplished in the 407 alternate dimension. It might be related.”

“407? I heard that space produced many rare materials and cards, but it’s extremely difficult. Someone actually cleared it?”

“Yes. The specifics aren’t known yet. The Demon Cross hasn’t sent any more detailed information. But the Blackwater people are indeed searching for something in the camp. Looking at it now, it should have something to do with Baron and the situation in the 407 dimension.”

“Regardless of who it is, using force on the train breaks the rules. Notify the association.”
