Chapter 52: The Card Maker's Association (II)
wouldn't be a big deal." Shen Gongbao laughed."The power to change the course of history is immense, and it carries great risks. It could be detrimental to us.""Alas, that's wrong. How can you say it'...Ginger glanced at the woman. Writing this, I hope readers remember our domain name
Lu Jianhong.
It's Principal Dong, Qi Wencai again, who called to throw away the "trash," right
Without even looking up, he tossed a card over.
"The library card, learn it yourself."
Lu Jianhong took the card and frowned.
"Well... Elder Jiang, could you perhaps find a senior to guide him..."
"Humph, what do you think Your Winter Lions haven't recommended any decent card-making talents to the association for years now. This year is even more outrageous, bringing in a greenhorn. If it weren't for your relationship with..." The old man took a swig of his drink and didn't want to continue.
But the principal......
"Go back and tell Qiwen that people can stay, but they have to teach. He didn't pass the test this year. Next year, if the Winter Lion people don't come, we won't let them in!"
Lu Jianhong's face flashed a hint of anger upon hearing this, but he still said calmly, "Old Jiang, the principal said that he can persuade Liu Jun from the magic department to come here...."
Ginger Lao, who was sitting in a corner drinking, immediately jumped up from his seat, changing his indifferent attitude from just now.
"You're talking about Liu Jun, that Liu family scion from your school, the one with the apocalypse fire expansion pack and a Blue 5-star card master, Liu Jun"
Ginger Lao thought that the Liu family was in charge of mining in Donghsi City, wielding powerful fire magic. And Liu Jun, who was skilled in fire magic, was one of the most famous young talents in Donghsi City.
While forging cards, flames are the most important. The Cardmaker's Association has persuaded many times, hoping that Liu Tianming's son, Liu Jun, can join the Winter Lion City Cardmaker's Association, but all have been politely declined.
"Yes, it's him." Lu Jianhong answered confidently.
How can one not be moved by a talent like Liu Jun
With talent, the association will be more attractive, and everyone's life will be better.
The card makers next to him also seemed to have heard the name Liu Jun, and immediately surrounded him.
His fire affinity is best suited for forging, if he comes, he's definitely coming with me!
"You're dreaming!"
"
Stop arguing, let's get ready when he arrives!
"
.......
"Alright, all of you quiet down. Is what Qitianming said true" Lao Jiang's eyes flashed with a sharp gleam.
"Um." Lu Jianhong nodded.
"Alright, let this boy stay. We'll have someone give him a good lesson. Dongshi Academy this year..."
"Oh, it's alright, I'd rather read a book by myself!" Lu Cheng suddenly spoke from the side.
Actually, Lu Cheng wasn't because of Liu Jun. It was just obvious that the elder in front of him didn't want to teach, so whatever.
Being forced to interact like this in the future is too much trouble for someone with social anxiety.
Besides, he didn't really need a particularly special teacher. He had taught himself a practical card-making method back when he was in the Heavenly Saint Empire.
He only needs to learn the transition now. When he opens the map in the Black Card later, there is a brilliant civilization of the Flower Family there, where he can learn anything!
Lu Jianhong on the side was taken aback.
"Lu Cheng, the assistant study card is very helpful to the team. The teacher still hopes that you will study hard!"
Lu Cheng shook his head. "Teacher, I haven't decided if making a card is right for me, so I won't bother the seniors just yet."
Lu Jianhong sighed, "Well then, the principal said that you can still use the school's facilities at the association."
Each academy here has its own facilities and area, convenient for their school's students. The headmaster seems approachable too!
Actually, Lu Cheng didn't know that this year Winter Lion hadn't received any scholarships from the association. That meant no one was using the facilities here!
"Then we won't bother you any longer, Old Ginger."
......
After leaving the association gate, Lu Jianhong threw out a card which transformed into a luxury car. He then yanked open the car door.
"Lu Cheng, get in the car, I'll give you a ride."
"Uh........"
Also works, can save 2 yuan........
Lu Cheng sat in the back seat.
On the way, Lu Jianhong kept cursing.
"I'm so mad! That old geezer! Showing off his face to whom"
"Teacher, I'm sorry to trouble you!" Lu Cheng didn't know if this would happen either way. If he did, he wouldn't have come. Social anxiety is most afraid of trouble.
"No, this has nothing to do with you. You don't understand. Every year our Winter Lion spots are always held up like this! Forget it...."
"Uh........"
Lu Cheng, study hard. Your teacher has high hopes for you. Aim for the top 64 in the Academy Cup.
"Teacher, your request..."
Before this, Lu Cheng also felt that the hastily assembled team had little hope of winning the championship, but getting into the top three was still possible.
But this time, the real match made him feel that his team could definitely compete for the championship.
The ability is not strong, but under sudden events it can actually hold together without scattering. This has already completely exceeded expectations.
The Academy Cup has a whole six months of preparation time left.
After all, Lu Cheng's previous idea for his teammates was... as long as it was an individual.
"You need to be ambitious and never think your teachers' expectations are too high. Our support team was too lenient in the past, but from now on, I will implement a wolf-like teaching style in our class! You all need to have that drive."
"Um.... " Mr. Lu is pretty good, except he doesn't seem to have much... drive.
Lu Cheng turned his head to look out the car window, and it began to snow again.
.......
After saying goodbye to Mr. Lu, Lu Cheng returned to the Lei family. Fatty hadn't come back yet. After greeting the Lei family members, he went back to his room and sat down to study the "Card Maker's Guide" carefully.
This was borrowed from the library, and you can only borrow one at a time.
Lu Cheng read the book with relish.
There are many ways to make cards, and it's very interesting.
Alchemy, potion-making, blacksmithing... there are just too many.
But the ultimate goal of card crafting is only one: to make cards stronger or add more functionality.
A [Wood Mushroom] can be used with flame to ignite the furnace, or it can be processed into a consumable card that instantly restores health. Of course, it can also be used to raise and summon cards, boosting their strength.
A card crafter needs to know everything about a card, understanding its traits, bonds, and synthesis rules, only then can they possibly create extraordinary cards.
Generally speaking, a person's energy is limited, and learning two or three skills can be quite taxing. However, in the world of Card Masters, this is not the case.
Basic skills are stored in your mind, like using a knife. You wouldn't have something like "[Normal Attack (Knife)]" as a card.
All advanced skills are cards, without exception...
If Lu Cheng had a [Great Heavenly Dragon] card in his hand, he wouldn't need to understand how it worked to use its skill. He could just use it, though the power would depend on his proficiency.
That is to say, if you put a [Iron Furnace Metallurgy] card into Lu's deck now, he can immediately transform into a dwarf blacksmith. It all comes down to how well it's used.
As long as you have enough card resources, becoming a full-time card master is no problem at all!
Now, Lu Cheng needs to do is quickly catch up on his foundational knowledge. Then, he should charge his Black Card and go back to his hometown to look for skill cards one by one.
These card names could be called 【Alchemical Refinement】, 【Gazing at Qi】, 【Compendium of Materia Medica】, 【Theories of Nature】......!
"Lu Lao Di, I brought you some barbecue!"
"Lu Cheng heard the voice and glanced out the window. It was already dark."
The door wasn't closed, the fat man walked into the room, put the barbecue on the table, and sat down to eat it first.
"Fatty, why are you so late today"
"Ugh, don't even get me started. My slime got seriously injured in the secret realm, so I bought some [Bio-Gel] for it. If that doesn't work, I'll have to go to the Card Maker's Association tomorrow and see if a summoning card maker can fix it up. Anyway, come over here and eat. This place is good."
In a while.... Lu Chenggang just finished reading a book, and he had many strange thoughts. He happened to need a test subject, so why not use his own water
Took out a small notebook, flipped to the page labeled "Fatty Brother," and pulled out a pen.......
"Fatty, what's your budget"ic Sacred Relics".At first sight, even Ya Gong was startled, but soon all three of them felt a strong interest.This is an ancient artifact of the demon clan! The Silver String Society's 《Mirror of See...
