Catastrophe Card King-Chapter 486 - 173: Bizarre Retrospection
Chapter 486: Chapter 173: Bizarre Retrospection
Seeing Elder Clinton jogging towards them from a distance, Leonard Churchill instinctively thought that he was some monstrosity from the Catastrophe and was prepared to fight.
But out of the corner of his eye, he was surprised to find that Elder Clinton behind him had disappeared!
“Huh?”
Only then did Leonard realize something was amiss.
Did he teleport?
Colin, standing beside him, noticed the same thing.
He knew his grandfather better than anyone else, and only after confirming it was him did he exclaim, “Grandpa, how did you suddenly get over there?” “What?”
Elder Clinton was even more baffled, looking at Leonard and his two companions, and countered, “I was going to ask you guys howyou disappeared without a sound and ended up here, making me have a hard time finding you…” “???”
Hearing this, Leonard and his companions simultaneously looked bewildered. Didn’t we all just get off the train together? What does he mean by running? When Elder Clinton came up to them, Leonard examined him carefully and confirmed that it was indeed the lewd old man, not some transformed monster. But the confirmation only made the situation more puzzling.
The four of them stared at each other, at a loss.
However, after pondering the conversation they just had, Leonard subtly realized the problem might not be with the people, but with the ruins of Summer Shepherd City.
He looked at Elder Clinton in front of him and asked, “Elder, were you… in the ruins before?”
Elder Clinton, not understanding what had happened, replied, “Yes. You all disappeared suddenly, and I was looking for you everywhere. Then I saw the train come into the station and certainly enough, you three were here.” Leonard:
Catherine Carter: “…”
Colin:
The three of them felt a chill creep up their spines when they heard this.
However, after experiencing the mysterious Time Domain on the train, they could understand some things.
He has been looking for them?
Leonard started to guess something and tentatively asked, “Elder, when did we arrive at these ruins?”
Hearing this question, Elder Clinton was puzzled why he asked this but casually replied, “Yesterday. You’re even more forgetful than the old man…”
While responding, he saw the three in front of him twitch their eyes in a strange expression, and he couldn’t help but sneer, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Yesterday?

But they had just got off the train!
Hearing this, Leonard immediately realized the problem and a phrase popped up in his mind: time retrospection!
If Elder Clinton’s words were correct, they had arrived at the ruins of Summer Shepherd City yesterday and had been wandering in the city for a day.
But in the memory of Leonard and his companions, they had just got off the train.
The most likely explanation was that their time had been turned back.
Except for Elder Clinton. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
It was because of this bug-like existence that they realized the problem.
“His…”
Leonard gasped in his heart, exchanged a glance with Catherine Carter beside him.
Both saw the shock of the unknown in each other’s eyes.
They just realized that this place, from the moment they arrived, seemed not dangerous, but in fact, it was full of hidden threats.
The Underworld Train before, that bizarre accelerated Time Domain.
And now Summer Shepherd City… can it turn back time?
If it wasn’ t for Elder Clinton, Leonard doubted whether they would have noticed that they had been turned back.
That is to say, they might spend the rest of their lives repeating this day.
No.
There might be some other even worse dangers.
They just haven’t noticed because their memories have been turned back.
Leonard and his companions became aware of the strangeness of this place.
But they were already here.
That is, from the moment they got off the train, they had entered another “Time Reverse Domain”.
“It seems that the retrospection of time is one day… That is to say, we must find a way to break the cycle within this day.”
Leonard instantly figured this out.
They are not like Elder Clinton, unaffected by the retrospection.
So if they want to break out of this predicament, they must find some breakthroughs.
But then again.
Since they traveled through the ruins for a day yesterday and survived, it means that they won’t die at least?
Or can they resurrect even if they die due to the retrospection?
That’s somewhat good news.
The four left the platform and headed towards the ruins.
He felt that the key to solving the mystery might be hidden somewhere in the ruins.
Leonard wasn’t sure whether his conjecture about the time retrospection was correct, so he could only pin his hopes on Elder Clinton.
Walking, he asked, “Elder, what did we do in these ruins yesterday?”
If the time loop is only one day, this is essentially a countdown.
They didn’t solve the secret of the cycle yesterday, so to increase efficiency, they should avoid what they did yesterday today.
“Ah… What did we do?”
Hearing this, the face of Elder Clinton showed a bitter expression as if trying hard to remember after drinking, “We just wandered around the city… Huh, why can’t I remember what we did yesterday?”
Hearing this, Catherine Carter, who had been full of expectation, twitched the corner of her eyes.
Leonard and Colin took it as quite normal.
The oldman’s forgetfulness was getting worse, not to mention yesterday’s incidents, he often forgets what he just did.
Now it’s more serious.
Leonard also understood some rules, Elder Clinton’s body was not affected by time, but his memory was.
Perhaps only after entering the city and being triggered by the familiar scene could the old man remember something.
