YM778.TV Chapter 411 - A Brand New Card!
411 A Brand New Card!
Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master association.
Looking at the dinner from the canteen, he was at a loss for words...
It had been seven days!
He had eaten seven days of papaya fried rice!
The worse thing was...
He did not know if this was a delusion but his body felt slightly odd.
To put it bluntly, he had eaten such food as dietary supplements in his past life and it was not effective. However, this world was nourished by energy and he did not know if eating this would have a special effect...
→_→
If it was truly effective...
Lu Ming felt very worried.
He could imagine the entire Sword Card Master Association becoming voluptuous. When that time came, there was a huge possibility that it would become the first big shot cross-dressing association.
That scene...
Ss——
He felt agitated at the thought of it.
Hence...
He specially went to the spirit body department to look for Xiaobai.
“Xiaobai, are you still able to wear the clothes that I bought you last time?”
Lu Ming asked with concern.
“Yes,” Xiaobai replied obediently.
She did not have any problem wearing the clothes that Lu Ming had bought her.
“That’s good.”
Lu Ming left with a smile.
Well....
It seemed that papaya meals were truly ineffective!
“Huh?”
Xiaobai was dazed.
What did he understand?
Master specially looked for her to ask if her clothes were still fitting?
Xiaobai broke out in a sweat.
...
At this very moment...
Satisfied with the response, Lu Ming had already left.
Well....
Xiaobai had been eating many papaya meals and nothing happened. It must not be working.
Since papaya meals were ineffective, Lu Ming could not be bothered with this. It was just as nice. This provided an explanation for the inexplicable talent of the Sword Card Master Association!
Hence...
Lu Ming focused on self-improvement again.
Since he had already reached five-star, he should polish his capability, especially in the abilities that he had already mastered. He had to catch up with the rest of the people!
However...
Lu Ming felt very vexed at the thought of this.
He was working on the third move of the Lunar Shadow legacy. Since he had an in-depth exchange with Senior Qiu Shuyi, he had already mastered most of it. As long as Xiao-Xiaojian made honest deductions and they pieced together the relatively simple things, he would be able to master this move!
However, this needed time and he could only take things slowly.
Afterward...
It was the issue pertaining to the cards.
So far, he had been creating five-star cards by forcefully integrating them through four-star cards. He had not truly created a five-star card before! Not even once!
Therefore...
If he wanted to create six-star cards, he had to research a certain five-star card comprehensively first. Afterward, he would have to materialize the card through the Lightning Original Card!
He would take it a step at a time.
The problem was...
Which card should he choose?
Looking at the few cards that he had, Lu Ming did not really feel like making a choice.
For example...
Mover Card...
The Carry Card new series, five-star Mover Card. The last time he cast this card, he vacated the testing area. During the actual combat, it caused a building to disappear.
If it were to evolve it into a six-star card...
Hahahaha.
Who the hell knows what would happen?!
Another example was—
Sunlight Card...
That series of cards was even more strange and mysterious.
The Moonlight Card could strengthen and stimulate like hormones, whereas the Sunlight Card could become a small nuclear bomb. In reality, the Sunlight Card was not that useful but it had unleashed an uncanny effect in the World of Darkness and Shadows.
If it were to evolve into a six-star card...
Lu Ming was afraid that a stranger thing would appear!
Of course.
It was even worse for the Will-O-Wisp Card of the Demolition Card series!
The entire canteen of The First Academy was almost blown up!
It was too scary!
If it were to evolve into a six-star card...
This series of four-star Desolation Cards had the effect of soul resurrection. It could summon the souls of deceased bull species. If it were to reach six-star, it would be even more frightening!
Of course, it would also be more unstable.
Lu Ming reviewed the cards he had currently. All of them were functional cards with special effects. He did not feel like choosing any of them!
After all...
He needed to spend a huge amount of time thoroughly researching the lines of top-notch five-star cards. Within such a short time frame, there was only one card that could allow him to reach six-star...
Therefore...
Lu Ming pondered for a moment and decided to choose another card!
He would choose a new card!
Why did he have to insist on these three options?
He was already a five-star!
Five-star meant that he could choose some five-star Standalone Cards and then integrate them into a powerful, top-notch card!
Perhaps there would be more suitable ones!
Hence...
Lu Ming looked in the card library excitedly.
Five-star...
Well....
He could eliminate the elemental ability abilities such as the fiery flaming ass and femme fatale. These abilities had thousands of years of research done by the big shots and had already been thoroughly understood!
This time, Lu Ming made the same choice as he did in the past. He chose a Standalone Card!
Those without a series!
Those without a set!
Shush!
Lu Ming looked around.
The selection of five-star Standalone Cards was wider than he had expected. Most of them were abilities formed by expanded research and they had wonderful effects.
For example, the Ravaging Storm Card.
This five-star element card was a Standalone Card that belonged to the wind element series. Despite this, it was vastly different from the conventional five-star wind element card such as the Hurricane Landing Card.
The effect of the conventional wind element card was to create large-scale damage with wind elements.
But this card...
The Ravaging Storm Card would send everyone flying with a massive amount of wind elements...
It was true.
Its ability was to send one flying with its strong wind currents.
If the direction of the blow was from the bottom to the top, it could create a valiant impact.
Lu Ming pondered for a long time. This card would be effective in places with many summer dresses... Aside from that, he could not figure out its usefulness in combat!
Wait a minute?
Isn’t it better if I choose an ability that I can have a strong control of?!
I can choose Thunderbolt Hammer or similar abilities. They are more powerful as I can smash my opponent directly?
Who invented this ability?
He reckoned that it was the type of card that needed to be used in conjunction with certain abilities. He would be foolish to use it as a Standalone Card.
He would skip this!
Lu Ming read on.
Well....
Scorching Flames Tank: Condense a high speed tank with fire element; five-star prowess; lighting speed; can drift and sprint.
This card was not bad.
However...
Lu Ming already had the Cloud Shuttle Card and did not need this for the time being.
Well....
Next.
Blasting Sky: Consecutively shoot 12 energy arrows of different characteristics into the enemy’s body; the arrows will ferment in the body and cause great injury!
Oh?
Lu Ming’s eyes lit up.
This was a rare lethal Standalone Card!
Shush!
Lu Ming began to view the video demonstrations.
He saw a shadow in the sky pointing its finger at the enemy afar. In that instant, 12 beams of lights shot into the enemy’s body. Suddenly, that enemy’s body began to expand... His belly grew bigger and bigger...
In the end...
Crash!
There was a loud bang and a wave of energy shot through the sky!
Ss——
Lu Ming was stunned.
Such an amazing five-star card existed?!
If he could learn it...
After pondering, Lu Ming went to the cultivators techniques forum and browsed through the posts about the Blasting Sky Card. He then saw a string of bad reviews on it!
“Rubbish card! You wasted my youth!”
“Please take note if you buy this card. This card cannot lock onto the target. You need to aim for yourself! Right, you need to shoot it into the other party’s body yourself!”
“Damn it! You have to shoot all 12 arrows into the body!”
“Right, it’s a good-for-nothing! I shot 11 arrows accurately. One arrow deflected and it lost its effect. I was almost killed by the other party...”
“This card can only be used by a Sharpshooter!”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Damn!
He had to do the aiming himself?
When he saw the video earlier, he had thought that it could lock onto the target automatically!
In other words, he would have to aim accurately during the combat, when the opponent was traveling at lighting speed. He had to shoot all the arrows into the opponent’s body in order to beat him?
Afterward, Lu Ming suddenly remembered his Sharpshooter talent score of 1.5. Hahahaha... Rubbish card!
Shush!
Lu Ming gave up on this card decisively.
As he read on, he discovered that he was in a similar situation to the past. He could not find many Standalone Cards that were suitable and useful. Furthermore, he had to find one with a different characteristic from his current cards.
Thankfully...
There were many five-star Standalone cards and Lu Ming could continue searching for the right one.
After a long while...
Just as he was about to exhaust everything in the card library, Lu Ming’s attention was drawn to a particular card.
Eh?
This card...
——
Card name: Elemental Scene Card
Card Rating: Five-star.
Card Type: Scene Card
Card Ability: Through energy rendering, the card will enhance the vitality of the elements in the surrounding area and strengthen the power of the Elementalist’s abilities.
Card Effect: Increase the elemental ability by 10% within the geographical scope of coverage.
——
Geographical scope of coverage...
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
In fact, the effect of enhancing the elemental ability by 10% was very weak.
However, this was not the main point. The main point was that this card was actually a Scene Card!
It was true.
In normal circumstances, only six-star and above cultivators could possess a Scene Card! It was similar to the special card such as the Purgatory Realm used by Yan Suya! This was because only six-star energy could support the effect released by the Scene Card. Therefore, it was almost non-existent below six-star!
Lu Ming never thought of discovering a five-star card like this!
Of course.
This card’s ability was also super weak...
10%...
It was negligible.
Lu Ming read the reviews on the card. True through, the reviews about this card were heinously poor.
“A low level Scene Card that is created thoughtlessly.”
“It’s just wowing the audience with claptraps. It’s totally useless.”
“Tell me what is the use of the negligible 10%?”
“This technique is actually quite useful. I remember that element is quite a good ability. However, it has become trash when turned into a card.”
The cultivators lamented continuously.
Obviously...
This was another card which was ‘not accustomed to the place’.
It had a definite effect for the Elementalist vocation! 10% was better than nothing!
However...
If they needed to buy the card...
→_→
Many cultivators hoped for a substantial effect if they needed to spend a huge sum of money to buy a five-star card! What was the use of 10%?!
Therefore...
This card was the type of Standalone Card that no one cared about.
“Scene Card...”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
Putting aside the effect of the card, most of all, he liked the technique.
It was true.
Memories of the moment that Yan Suya activated the Scene Card during their combat were refreshed in his mind... That snowy, fair... Ah! Spat!
Wrong.
Thoses burning, scarlet flames...
That terrifying augmentation ability was still fresh in his mind!
The amazing part of the scene ability was its buff!
“Should I test it out?”
Lu Ming had the urge to try it out.
Anyway, the lightning integration would only deplete seven cards.
The current wealthy Lu Ming was not bothered about this sum of money. He decisively bought seven so-called ‘Elemental Scene Cards’.
After a long while...
When the cards arrived, Lu Ming began to integrate the cards.
Shush!
Shush!
Seven cards were thrown into the Original Card.
Xiao-Xiaojian’s empty card body was finally filled...
(艹皿艹)
Bang!
Faint lights flashed.
The card surface changed.
A brand new card emerged.
Lu Ming gently caressed the back of the card so he could clearly feel the changes. This card still seemed to be a Scene Card.
However, the front of the card... was pink.
“This is strange,” Lu Ming muttered.
Why would the card turn pink?
Well....
Lu Ming pondered for a moment and did not dare to use it directly.
Based on his countless card usage experience, it was better to be on his guard with such strange looking cards. Therefore, he used the machine to test it.
Ding—
The testing data.
Lu Ming saw the element, scene, scope modules and so on.
“It seems quite normal.”
Lu Ming was deep in his thoughts.
This should be a strengthened Element Scene Card?
Lu Ming created this card as he was curious about the Scene Card.
Anyway, for five-star Standalone Cards, he could briefly tell the function of the Integration Card after depleting seven of the cards.
Well....
There should not be a problem with this card.
Forget it.
He would ignore the color and test the function of this card!
The advantage of the Scene Card was that it did not have a lot of destructive power and would only change the scene. Therefore, there was no harm in trying it on the spot.
Fortunately...
He still had the machine used for talent testing.
Hence...
Lu Ming cast it in his bedroom.
Buzz—
The pink card in his hands dazzled.
Lu Ming’s bedroom changed instantaneously.
It’s coming...
Lu Ming was filled with anticipation.
Is this the Scene Card?!
Yan Suya’s scene ability could transform an entire field into a purgatory realm. What magical effects would his Scene Card have?
Although this was an Elemental Scene Card, if he could comprehend and make refinements to the lines, he might be able to create a Scene Card specially catered for the Sword Card Master!
He felt somewhat thrilled at the thought of it.
At the thought of this...
Lu Ming looked at the room with some anticipation.
Shush!
Lights and shadow flashed.
All of a sudden, the entire room was shrouded by a pink glow...
“Master, master...
“It’s time to eat!”
Xiaobai ran over happily and was stunned when she saw the pink card dissipating in Lu Ming’s hands. Afterward, she saw the room turning pink and instantly blushed.
That was annoying!
What was Master doing alone in the room!
A pink room and small pink card...
Goodness!
Is this Master during puberty?...
Sigh...
“I-I didn’t see anything.”
Blushing, Xiaobai ran off frantically.
Lu Ming was speechless.
What exactly are you thinking of?!
And...
What the hell is this pink glow?!
Just as Lu Ming broke out in a sweat, he saw that pink glow engulfing the entire building with an exaggerated speed!
It engulfed the entire association!
“Something has happened!”
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
He didn’t expect this element card to cover such a wide area!
Fortunately, it was just an Incremental Element Card... It shouldn’t have any repercussions on the disciples of the Sword Card Master Association?
...
Right then...
Sword Card Master association.
At the entrance.
An elder led a few people to the doorstep.
“Remember!
“We came here for official business!
“Don’t you guys learn from your mistakes? Don’t you know what Lu Ming represents?! And his status...
“Be good!
“Admit if you’re wrong!
“You have to adopt the right attitude!
“I don’t want any more problems to occur!
“Understood?” the elder said coldly.
“Yes.”
The few of them nodded cowardly.
Hence...
The elder smoothed out his clothing and stepped forward in a gentlemanly manner. “Good day, we are cultivators from the headquarters of the Wind Elementalist Association...”
At this very moment...
Wow—
Pink lights suddenly shrouded them.
The elder’s heart trembled. His eyes swept across that shrouding radiance and he instantly felt cold. Indeed, the headquarters were right!
They were a step late!
Lu Ming... He had already taken action against the Elementalists...
...
At this very moment...
The headquarters of the Wind Elementalist Association.
The president had finally finished cultivating in seclusion.
He sighed deeply upon reading the news from Tian Du City.
Although Lu Ming had average capabilities, he was still a genius Card Creator. If he were to research and create a card which targeted the Elementalists, they would be in trouble!
Especially since ]—
Lu Ming had already done this twice!
A Leviathan Card almost overturned the Summoner Association! A vocation core card almost overturned the Energy Warriors Association, the top association in the world!
Who could endure that?!
Therefore...
When he heard that the branch president of Tian Du City did such a thing, he told that guy to apologize immediately. Unexpectedly, this guy stirred up trouble again!
Why did they beat Zhang Yang up for no reason?!
Look.
Something happened!
Hence...
He quickly sent the staff members from the association over... Unexpectedly...
“Why don’t we...”
There was a cold flash in the eyes of his assistant as he did the gesture of cutting cakes...
Sometimes, getting rid of the root of the problem was also a solution.
“Get lost!”
The president kicked him.
“Kill, kill, kill. You only know how to kill. Can you use your brains?
“Can’t you see how many people are at the Sword Card Master Association now? Don’t you know how famous Lu Ming is? Do you want the entire association to be buried with you?!
“Idiots!”
The president was enraged.
“This is a different era now. Do you understand?
“In the era when we rose to power, we didn’t have the Internet. The authorities were unreachable and it was difficult for people to seek justice. Nowadays, regardless of your actions, you will be posted online! That’s not all. Things that happened decades or centuries ago may also be slowly exposed!
“How dare you mess around?!
“Open your eyes and take a good look. Do you see those few people on the notice board at the entrance?
“Those few people didn’t throw their garbage into the right bins and have been hung up there for everyone to see!
“Use your useless brains. Nowadays, even littering will be seen. Do you dare to kill Lu Ming! Do you know how many people are paying attention to him now?!”
The president was furious.
That is too stupid!
Do you think you can assassinate anyone?!
Nobody would find out if you were to kill an ordinary person but that is Lu Ming!
The extremely popular Lu Ming! With Lu Ming’s looks, believe it or not, some ladies might even be peeping at him when he is walking alone on the streets in the middle of the night?!
Perhaps a young lady was filming him secretly in a small community nearby!
How dare you try an assassination?
You are courting death!
“Therefore, be good!
“Understand?” the president said angrily.
“Yes.”
The assistant was in fear and trepidation.
He had never seen the president looking that austere.
“So...
“How do we deal with Lu Ming then?” the assistant asked gingerly.
“I’ll handle this matter.”
The president was very troubled.
Since Lu Ming had already created a card that targeted Elementalists, he had to quickly get in touch with Lu Ming and resolve this matter as soon as possible!
He would seek help from the headquarters of the Elementalist Association!
No one could run away from this!
...
