Carter.

Colin, taking a bite of his bread, turned to Elder Clinton and asked, “Gramps, would you like a piece?”

“NO, thanks. I don’t have an appetite.” Elder Clinton responded with a resentful look and a furrowed brow, obviously troubled by the puzzle of survival.

A flicker of unease shone in Catherine Carter’s eyes, as she had been counting on Elder Clinton to breakthrough from this crisis.

But after waiting for two to three hours, it seemed there was no solution in sight.

Leonard Churchill understood very well – – unless Elder Clinton himself encounters a monster, it’s highly likely he won’t remember his “other identity”.

However, seeing Elder Clinton, an idea popped into his head – a highly probable solution to escape. He couldn’t help but smile.

Spotting his expression, Catherine Carter asked curiously, “Why are you smiling?”

Colin, too, was curious. What was there to smile about in such a situation?

Leonard Churchill’s eyebrows rose slightly as he casually said, “I’ve thought of

a reliable escape plan.”

Upon hearing his words, both Catherine Carter and Colin aimed their expectant gazes at him.

Even Elder Clinton immediately perked up, his ears wide open to listen in.

Leonard Churchill smirked and said, “I think we can use Elder Clinton to distract the monster, and that might give us a huge chance to escape.” Hearing this, Catherine Carter blinked in surprise. Although she knew he was joking, she instantly guessed what he was getting at.

She finally understood why he had been smiling earlier and a matching smile spread across her face, apparently thinking it amusing.

Upon further thought, the plan seemed sound.

With Elder Clinton’s ability to survive for so long, it was unlikely that he would just die like that.

Using him to distract the monster, there was indeed a big chance to break through this deadlock.

Elder Clinton immediately bristled upon hearing the suggestion, glaring at

Leonard Churchill, huffing and puffing, “You…you…you boy! I’ve been good to you, and now you want to use me as bait?!

Colin was quite smart, just lacking some social experience.

He considered the plan seriously, mistaking it for Leonard Churchill needing

bait.

There was no way his grandpa was going, so he solemnly said, “Mr. Leonard

Churchill, how about…I be the bait?”

Leonard Churchill responded with a hearty laugh and shook his head.

He wasn’t worried that Elder Clinton would take the plan seriously.

Until now, he had clearly observed that Elder Clinton had truly integrated his

role – that of a retired expert.

Leonard Churchill’s performance was masterclass, but it was far inferior to

Elder Clinton’s.

Elder Clinton was just a guise, not who he really was.

Like an impeccable mask.

No one knew who he truly was behind the mask.

Those unfamiliar didn’t know he was an expert.

Only those who knew, participated in his actions and possessed Great Fortune weren’t affected, but most of them were dead now.

Seeing Leonard Churchill still in the mood for jokes, Catherine Carter guessed he might have figured out a way. “So, do you really have a plan?” she asked.

Leonard Churchill shrugged, neither confirming nor denying, yet there was a sparkle of deep wisdom in his eyes.

Taking a bite of his bread, he counter questioned, “If there’s a chance to risk your life to break through, would you choose to do so?”

Upon hearing his words, Catherine Carter’s eyes lit up, and she finally understood.

She knew what he was hinting at, her face revealed no surprise as she asked,

“You want me to be the bait?”

She guessed why as well.

Based on the current clues, the Catastrophe would disappear right after an instantaneous kill, only during possession of females did it provide an opportunity.

“Huh.”

Leonard Churchill laughed and raised his eyebrows, accepting her conclusion. Conversing with intelligent people didn’t necessitate many words. This woman understood his motive perfectly.

Faced with such an interesting Catastrophe, his heart was filled with a strong urge to combat it.

If Leonard Churchill himself was a female, he would definitely take the risk himself.

But currently, other than Catherine in his team, there were no other female members to experiment with.

Catherine Carter took a moment to ponder, and then resolutely said, “I can be the bait!”

“Oh?”

On hearing her response, Leonard Churchill raised an eyebrow

“I was just saying it for the sake of argument.

He had not expected that the honorable miss of the high-ranking nobility would really agree to his proposal.

Catherine Carter, seemingly contemplating deeply, expressed her heart’s doubts. “But…what after I’ve attracted the monster? I don’t have any confidence in being able to unravel the rules set by the Catastrophe.”

After a moment’s thought, she added, “That question…! don’t think the answer should be either ‘beautiful¹ or ‘not beautiful’.”

Leonard Churchill nodded in agreement, “Yes, I believe so too.”

Hearing Leonard Churchill’s agreement, Catherine Carter was even more confused. So, was she supposed to be a sacrificial lamb to the Catastrophe in his plan?

Leonard Churchill didn’t immediately answer her question, instead curiously asking, “You don’t possess any artifacts designed to counteract this type of Catastrophe?”

Catherine Carter answered simply, “No.”

“No?”

Leonard Churchill wanted to make sure.

Considering how Young Master Kane had set out on a trial with three hundred Beast Elites, along with carrying tons of ammunition and various rare ancient relics.

‘Catherine Carter was known as the “Silver Mist Rose”, her status even higher than that of Kane.

She didn’t bring bodyguards, did she really not bring any life-saving items? Seeing Leonard Churchill’s amazed gaze, Catherine Carter guessed what he was thinking and said, “I didn’t bring almost any special items.” Leonard Churchill was genuinely surprised but then thought of something. “Because of that trial?”

Catherine Carter nodded, “Yes..”
