Chapter 152: Chapter 85: A-Level Plot Difficulty

Translator: 549690339

An A-rank Catastrophe Difficulty?

The moment these words were spoken, a grave look instantly appeared on the faces of Liam Martinez and Alison.

They might have some chances against a B-rank difficulty.

But A-rank is almost impossible.

But they couldn’t figure out why Leonard Churchill would say such a thing.

Alison wanted to understand, so she asked directly: “Why do you think the Black Wolf Group will trigger an A-Level Plot?”

The werewolves were surrounding them, Leonard Churchill didn’t waste time standing around.

He took the lead: “Follow me for now. I know a place that’s good for fighting.”

Tracy Garcia didn’t think twice and followed right behind.

However, Alison and Liam Martinez looked at each other, clearly hesitating.

Is he making decisions alone?

Didn’t he even discuss it with us?

This guy… he’s really arrogant, isn’t he?

But for some reason, their instincts told them that he was right.

Without further hesitation, they followed him.

If Leonard Churchill made a judgment, he would definitely follow through with it.

Seeking the opinions of others at this moment would be nothing but a waste of time, completely meaningless.

He was also confident that if Liam Martinez and Alison thought slightly about it, they would definitely follow.

As they walked, Leonard Churchill explained: “The Black Wolf Group had successfully passed the B-level difficulty before and obtained silver materials. Although they suffered heavy casualties, they proved that they had killed the B-level Catastrophe. More than once.”

Tracy Garcia and the two others didn’t know why he was saying this.

But thinking back to the recruitment information, the Black Wolf Group really did mention that they had silver materials, it was the most important point enticing demon hunters to join.

Before they had thought more about it, Leonard Churchill continued: “In other words, they should roughly know the secrets of the third floor of the mine. So there’s enough reason to suspect that those guys have entered this time not to explore the third floor, but to uncover deeper hidden plots.”

He paused for a bit before adding: “From the information we know so far, the biggest secret of the Alternate Dimension is hidden deep in the mine. Theoretically, the probability of triggering an A-rank difficulty is not small. Therefore, getting rid of these werewolves as early as possible will give us more options to deal with unexpected situations in the future…”

Yes!

The eyes of Liam Martinez and Alison were shimmering.

If the Black Wolf Group has already challenged the B-level difficulty and set up such a scheme, isn’t it for the A-level difficulty?

It was like they had been given the answer. By retracing the steps, everything became clear. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

But the sudden catastrophe earlier left them with no time to think about anything else, they only focused on escaping.

They only thought about escaping first and then considering the rest.

But they had never thought that someone had already thought of everything in the face of such a crisis.

Without having cooperated before, Liam Martinez and Alison kept their due caution.

After all, they had just been schemed by the Black Wolf Group. They couldn’t simply trust a risky plan based on a hypothesis and entrust their lives to it.

Wipe them out?

The Black Wolf Group’s elite had come in and they still wouldn’t dare to have such a crazy plan.

Even though they were confident to deal with the B-level Catastrophe.

They have never thought of killing in a monster’s lair.

What the hell was this guy thinking?

Alison’s eyes flickered as she asked the biggest question in her heart: “But you said there will be an A-rank difficulty triggered, shouldn’t we return to the town?”

Upon hearing these words, Leonard Churchill pondered for a moment before saying meaningfully: “Even if we can make it out, going back to town now is not necessarily a good choice.”

They had originally planned to ambush at the entrance, but now that the mine tunnel was broken, they could also do it here.

“???”

The moment these words were spoken, Tracy Garcia and the two others were immediately puzzled.

They did not understand,

Are they suggesting that the mine could be safer than the town?

If Leonard Churchill had not found some clues in Townsend Town, he would probably also think it was safer to escape and seek shelter behind the high walls of the town.

But now, he did not think so.

He reached this conclusion because he thought of the Mysterious Blacksmith “Uncle George” at the Blacksmith Shop.

He was not sure why there were signs of demon power out of control on him.

But after entering the mine and seeing the identical dark magical power emitted from each werewolf corpse,

He was almost certain that the blacksmith, George, was a werewolf!

And moreover, he hadn’t lost his senses.

This must be a hidden BOSS of higher difficulty.

Oh, and Mayor Barn.

Or other people in the town.

They have concealed some truth.

The Black Wolf Group had explored the C-rank, D-rank, and even B-rank difficulty before, but they had never triggered this part of the plot.

So, Leonard Churchill decided that triggering the A-rank level might be the key point to expose these hidden BOSSes.

It was hard to imagine that the strongest werewolf was hiding in the town.

If it turned out as he thought, it would be safer to stay in the mine.

Once an A-rank monster appears,

Trying for a strong kill was basically impossible,

They could only kill it through the plot.

Leonard Churchill envisioned the only possible way to clear the plot, which must be below the third floor of the mine!

Therefore, staying in the mine was the lesser of all the worst choices.

The thought process of Leonard Churchill is not something outsiders can keep up with.

Liam Martinez couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Why do you think going back to town is not a good choice?”

Leonard Churchill threw out his weightiest piece of information: “Because, while I was looking for clues before, I discovered some odd things. Townsend Town’s blacksmith George and Mayor Barn are most likely werewolves.”

“What?”

Hearing this, Tracy Garcia and her team were truly shocked.

Werewolves in Townsend Town?

This situation was not mentioned at all in the intelligence reports.

Even they hadn’t thought about this possibility before.

Mayor Barn is a werewolf?

Then why would they invite demon hunters to eliminate werewolves?

“It’s complicated to explain, but this is the truth. You can believe me, or not.”

Leonard didn’t go into detail about how he had made this discovery.

Apart from the analysis of related clues, there were also abilities provided by Joker, all of which were difficult to explain in a few words.

Upon hearing this, Liam Martinez and Alison fell silent.

They sensed that Leonard was hiding something.

Although they guessed it might be a Secret Skill or some high-value clue they were reluctant to disclose.

But since there was deceit involved, they had to weigh whether or not they should believe him.

However, seeing her teammates hesitate, a certain Spirit Communicator alias quickly made her decision with a firm tone, “I believe Mr. Leonard Churchill!”

This trust didn’t stem from anything else, but the sense of deja vu. novelbuddy.c om

Back in the Grand Cemetery Labyrinth, she was suspicious of strangers herself.

Yet every time, Camilla stood up expressing absolute trust in her “friend”.

The truth proved their trust was well placed.

Without Leonard, she couldn’t have possibly left the labyrinth alive.

Tracy trusts Camilla, and also trusts her intuition.

Hearing that, even Leonard couldn’t help looking at Tracy, quite amused.

He could guarantee that this young lady hadn’t entirely understood his conjectures just now.

It was pure trust that made her come to a decision.

Not any reasoned judgment on her part.

But now was clearly not the time for chit-chat.

While Liam and the others were mulling things over,

Leonard who had thought of something else, said, “There’s another thing you must be extremely wary of. I suspect the ‘Demon Hunter Employment Contract’ we signed when entering the town may be related to the A-rank plot. It could potentially lead you into a death trap.”

Upon hearing this,

Tracy and her team who hadn’t yet fully grasped the previous issue, immediately grew solemn again.

A death trap?

Just by hearing his grave tone, they knew it was a serious matter.

But they were baffled.

What does this have to do with the contract?

Without dragging things on, Leonard continued, “Because the Black Wolf Group has triggered an A-rank difficulty…”

Considering the current information, the Black Wolf Group has indeed triggered an A-rank difficulty.

Although they didn’t mention the mortality rate.

It definitely was high.

Plus, they surely didn’t complete it with a normal clear.

Leonard became quite curious then, how on Earth did the scarce survivors in the A-rank difficulty survive?

The 407 event was relatively unusual, but the monster strength alone could be a good gauge.

The combat power of an A-rank Catastrophe in an Alternate Dimension was absolutely beyond what a second-rate hunting team like the Black Wolf Group could kill.

Although the method of clearing the “Story Mode” didn’t necessarily involve monster slaying.

But considering their behavior in the B-rank difficulty, where they relied on others to draw the monsters off,

The plot clues they held were just barely enough for them to scrape their way through a B-rank difficulty.

It was highly unlikely that they could clear an A-rank level.

Leonard was almost certain that the time they cleared the A-rank difficulty was purely down to luck, with some managing to survive the three days.

That’s why he was so curious.

How did the survivors make it out?

This method must be of relatively easy access, accidental, and unexpected.

With these conditions in mind, what Leonard could currently think of was the “employment contract” they signed when entering the town.

He had a reason to suspect that the hidden Boss would use that list of demon hunters to carry out the hunt.

Although he wasn’t sure whether it would be through magic or some other means.

Having listened to Leonard’s explanation, Liam Martinez and Alison have no words left to say, only deep shock remaining in their hearts.

The two of them completely approved of Tracy’s evaluation of Leonard as a “puzzle solving master”.

If one can draw conclusions from knowing some clues that others don’t, that doesn’t count as a master.

What they’re witnessing now does!

The fact that the Black Wolf Group had cleared an A-rank difficulty and also a B-rank…

This was information that everyone had known long ago.

But they would have never thought that someone could find a thread from such information right under their noses, and then infer so many useful clues.

Yeah, once you trace it back, isn’t it just like that?

At this moment, even without Tracy saying anything, they’ve already chosen to believe Leonard, this outsider.

Liam and Alison exchanged glances, and turned to Leonard to say solemnly: “Fine! As you’ve suggested, we will stay in the mine.”

Leonardo just nodded with a smile.

Only with a certain foundation of trust did he truly have the confidence to clear the stage.

Otherwise, he would have to consider using some tricky tactics..
