Divine Card Creator - Chapter 93
Chapter 93: Done For, About To Be Silenced
“Brother Lu, do you want to participate in school activities?”
“No.”
“Brother Lu, do you want to do the tasks assigned by the school?”
“No!”
Lu Ming hung up the phone angrily.
Regardless of what kind of tasks that he received, Zhang Xiaopang would call Lu Ming to ask whether he was interested. He must have decided to suck up to him.
It was a pity…
Lu Ming did not have the time to go.
Before he entered the Lunar Shadow legacy, his time was really precious.
His study of Burial Mound Card would come to an end. Even if he continued to study the card, it was only to satisfy his curiosity. No matter what, he still had a long way to go before he could reach ten thousand points of energy…
This card simply could not be used!
He could not possibly carry a heavy Card Release Machine with him every time he went out.
Forget it.
Cultivation speed?
He needed that more desperately.
It was more suitable to continue his study of the “Burial Mound Card” after he was back from the Lunar Shadow legacy.
Right now…
He had to continue to learn all he could about restrictions!
Although with the information given by the two presidents, he had managed to create the card, Lu Ming still had to figure out how to crack the card.
Right now, he could see the energy lines as well as the core line very clearly and could use “Meltdown Card” to directly drain the energy. There should not be any problem.
It was just that…
Could he drain all the Card Restrictions of their energy directly?
He had no idea!
Would there be an accident?
He had no idea.
He had to continue his studies on restrictions in order to know more about them.
“I must continue to work hard.”
Lu Ming flipped open the materials on restriction.
First chapter, restriction algorithm.
Second chapter, Card Restriction.
Right now, he was on to his third chapter of restriction studies—real combat.
Testing and real combat were never the same.
It was true of Card Restriction.
In the experiment, the Card Restriction would be well-behaved, staying in the same spot, waiting for him to crack it. But in real life, the world would not be that peaceful.
“These…”
Lu Ming looked at the examples and was shocked.
There was danger everywhere!
The restrictions were always irregular!
That was right.
Some restrictions were incomplete.
Some of the algorithms were self-created or obsolete. One had to derive the solution on the spot!
Some of the restrictions would run on their own.
…
Wait a minute.
One would run across everything that was beyond imagination!
How should one cope with it?
There was no way but to be familiarized with it.
Once one was familiarized with it, one could handle it with ease.
Familiarize…
Real combat…
He would need a lot of resources for that!
Lu Ming sighed.
He was too poor!
The four-star Charging Card was already dying…
He had no other choice. This type of Charging Card was only to be activated once during combat. But Lu Ming kept draining it of its energy in the card machine.
The energy that was left was only enough to last him for more than twenty days.
He was too poor!
Therefore, what he lacked the most now were resources!
“What to do?”
Lu Ming’s head was aching.
Game Card?
The cycle was too long!
He could tell from the “Leviathan” card!
Moreover, the most important thing was, he was still profiting from the sales of “Leviathan” Card. He would be able to earn quite a lot of money every day. It was meaningless to create a new card!
His production capacity was limited.
Even if he created a new card, he would not be able to mass-produce the cards.
Well…
Resources…
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
Did he really have to fight in the wild like Zhang Xiaopang and the rest?
That was too risky.
Buzz—
His cell phone suddenly vibrated.
Lu Ming was surprised to receive a phone call from Zhang Yang!
“President.”
Lu Ming answered the call in surprise. “Are you back from your retreat?”
Why was he so flustered by the surprise in his voice? Would the kid pester him tonight again?
“Haha.”
Zhang Yang smiled dryly. “Of course not. I am still on retreat but I have some matters to handle. Aren’t you into the study of restrictions recently? Are you familiar with level one Card Restriction?”
“Yes.”
Lu Ming was confident.
Although it was difficult to crack them, it should be easy to create a restriction.
Because of the encryption, he had mastered a few restriction algorithms. It was much easier to add a restriction than to crack a restriction. One only needed to cover it with a restriction.
This was especially true for level one Card Restriction!
It was very simple.
“Very good.”
Zhang Yang smiled. “I talked to a friend about you today because of the match. We heard that you are studying restrictions and my friend asked that you help to set restrictions in the suburbs. You can take the opportunity to practice. You have to practice often to familiarize yourself.”
“Okay.”
Lu Ming was surprised.
He never imagined that he would be famous!
However…
Suburbs…
Would there be any danger?
Lu Ming voiced his concerns.
“What are you thinking about?”
Zhang Yang felt slightly displeased. “I know the guy. Although he is stingy, he will not harm you. If he dares to harm you, I will be the first to deal with him. This task is submitted onto the association’s task section and he named you to handle the task. All you need to do is to select the task.”
“As for why he asked that you do it…”
“Have you forgotten that no one among the two-star cultivators has a stronger foundation than you?”
“If not you then who else?”
Zhang Yang found it funny.
“Oh.”
Lu Ming finally understood.
He hung up the phone and logged into the association platform, staring at the assigned task for a long while in a daze.
Therefore…
Did this mean that he was going to appear publicly now?
——
Task Name: Covering of Restrictions
Task Description: Full Coverage of Level One Card Restrictions, Materials Provided.
Task Duration: One to Seven Days
Task Reward: One Hundred Thousand Yuan.
——
It seemed feasible.
Lu Ming thought about it.
He really needed some real combat experience.
If he was able to make use of the task to make progress over these few days, he would be able to increase his proficiency as well as widen his knowledge on restrictions. Moreover, he would be able to earn extra money!
He looked at the address, it was not too far.
Well…
It was good value for money.
Lu Ming conceived a concept in his heart.
“Master, are you going out?”
Xiaobai was curious.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming stroked her small head. “I am quite famous now. Someone wanted me to take up a task. Oh, it is not too good to be too famous.”
“Master is so smart,” Xiaobai exclaimed.
“Of course.”
Lu Ming felt proud.
Tsk tsk.
From now on, he was a prestigious man as well!
That afternoon.
He explained the shop operation to Xiaobai before he left for the place according to the address that he had. However, on the way there the landscape became more and more familiar.
Have I been here before?
Well??
Lu Ming halted in his tracks suddenly.
He remembered it now!
This was none other than…
I quit!
Lu Ming turned and was about to leave.
Just then, a hearty voice sounded.
“Are you Lu Ming?
Come over here.”
A big burly man came over and said in embarrassment, “I have added some restrictions, therefore you can’t see anyone from the outside.”
“Come this way.”
He walked up to a mountain range.
Heh!
He yelled loudly.
Lights surged in the mountain range and a mansion in the mountain could be seen.
Lu Ming was speechless.
It was indeed this place?!
It was no wonder that this man wanted to cover his entire mansion with level one Card Restrictions! This was where Lu Ming had taken the Charging Card from!
The person in front of him…
“Oh, right. I forgot to introduce myself. I am Fan Ze,” The burly man said in a cheerful voice.
Lu Ming’s knees felt weak.
Damn!
It was Fan Ze who designated him to take up the task?!
He was done for!
What to do?
Had he been discovered?
Would he be silenced?
He heard that people who lived alone for a long time had weird preferences… What should he do if he was being tortured?
Could Xiaobai’s Swordsman Card kill him instantly?
Should he make the move first?
Which angle was more suitable?
He heard that Fan Ze was an Energy Warrior, his body should be very strong…
What to do?
The Swordsman Card might not be able to defeat him!
Oh, his weakness!
Even for Energy Warriors, there should be some parts of their body that they did not cultivate, for example…
His a** hole.
Well…
He looked at it automatically.
Lu Ming fixed his gaze on his target, his right hand reaching for the Swordsman Card in his card bag.
Chapter 94: Did I Seem Naive To You?
“What do you say?”
Fan Ze was pleased with the “shocked” expression on Lu Ming’s face.
Check it out.
Even your president did not have such a huge mansion!
The last time when Zhang Yang was here, he had the same expression as well. After all, urban housing prices were too expensive, very few people were willing to waste resources to buy a house!
It was not that they could not afford it, it was too much of a waste!
Of course.
He did not know that the young man in front of him was thinking of ways to blow up his a** hole…
“There is no need to envy me. By the time you attain four-star, you can have such a big mansion as well.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
He paused before he swept his gaze over Fan Ze, looking at his ostentatious expression as well as the mansion that gradually came into sight, he realized something.
He did not seem to recognize him.
Well…
That was possible!
After all, it was Chu Xiao who was the scapegoat!
That was right. It was Chu Xiao who committed the evil deed. Why was he afraid?!
“Will such a large mansion be approved?”
Lu Ming pretended that he did not care.
“No.”
Fan Ze sighed. “Self-built mansions are generally illegal buildings… but never mind, anyway, no one dares to tear it down! Apart from people like Zhang Yang who had a position in the association and did not dare to go against the law, free cultivators like me are usually able to find a place that is full of energy to build a mansion.”
Lu Ming squealed.
That was amazing!
It turned out that four-star cultivators led a very good life!
“Come.
Let me show you around.”
Fan Ze was very enthusiastic.
Lu Ming felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Look.”
This was indeed the four-star big shot!
“Look over here. These walls, as well as these places that have been missed must be covered with restrictions.”
Fan Ze pointed while he explained to Lu Ming. “Don’t miss these places as well. No matter what, the entire mansion is to be covered with Card Restrictions!”
“Come, let’s go inside the house.”
Fan Ze led Lu Ming into the mansion.
In addition to the walls, the doors and windows of the mansion had to be covered with restrictions as well. He pointed to the places that needed to be covered with restrictions to Lu Ming.
“But my Card Restriction cannot stop enemies.”
Lu Ming was doubtful.
It was fine if they were ordinary enemies, but if they were Fan Ze’s enemies?
Four-star!
How could the restrictions stop them?
His restrictions might be cracked by force at any time!
“It’s okay.”
Fan Ze waved his hand. “This is mainly to serve as an alert. Don’t you know about lamination? You can laminate a one-star Warning Card. Once it is destroyed, it will send a reminder.”
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming finally realized what was wrong.
Lamination?!
Your level one Card Restriction task required one to use lamination?!
That was asking for too much.
“The reward was only one hundred thousand yuan. It is impossible to do lamination.”
Lu Ming was serious.
He could do lamination, but it cost more than one hundred thousand yuan! The service did not match the price offered!
What a joke!
Under normal circumstances, it was the high-level Card Creator’s exclusive to do lamination! Moreover, this cave mansion was very big, he wondered how many Card Restrictions would be needed!
If he did lamination…
He would be on the losing end!
The price offered for his services was already very low!
One hundred thousand yuan?
It was impossible!
It would cost more than that to laminate the “Leviathan” Card!
“Little friend.”
Fan Ze patted him on the shoulder and smiled. “It is not the right decision to bargain with a four-star cultivator. This should be an easy task for you, isn’t it?”
Lu Ming suddenly understood now.
That was why he was waiting for him there!
This was why he was being selected?!
Because he was the only one who could do lamination!
Because he was the cheapest!
After all, what he needed was a full coverage of the entire mansion. It was an extremely large-scale job. How long would a high-level Card Creator take to work on this task?
How much would it cost?
Besides, high-level Card Creators were generally at the four-star level!
It would cost a hand!
But for Lu Ming…
Look, he would only be charged for the price of level one restrictions.
It was very cheap.
Hahahaha…
Was he being plotted against?
Lu Ming squinted.
“Young man, you must be far-sighted.”
Fan Ze sighed. He must be thinking that after all, Lu Ming was Zhang Yang’s man, hence he must not be too harsh on him. He said earnestly, “Look, it will only do you well in the future if you have a good relationship with a four-star cultivator like me. Do the job well and I will make sure that you soar in the future.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Crap, all these were empty promises!
When he worked in his company in the previous life, his stupid boss would make empty promises as well, telling them that what they were doing now was for their future and for their dreams…
Crap!
Could he pay them their salary first?!
After so many years, he did not see any promises being realized. Lu Ming felt that if he had such a boss, he would definitely beat him to a pulp!
However, his previous life was his previous life. If he did that to Fan Ze here, he would be done for.
Hahahaha.
Did I seem naive to you?
Time was precious to him now!
Why would he waste his time to do lamination for this man?
This must be a joke?!
However…
He would take it as compensation for the Charging Card.
Lu Ming thought of something and agreed to it for now.
“Alright. I will do it for you.”
“However…”
Lu Ming looked aggrieved. “If I am bullied by other cultivators in the future, you must help me.”
“No problem.”
Fan Ze waved his hands.
He was fine with anything as long as they did not talk about money.
Tsk tsk…
He hired a high-level Card Creator to take a look last time and the person quoted him two million yuan!
This was such a scam!
Look at Lu Ming who was still a child, he could settle everything at one hundred thousand yuan and the materials did not cost a lot. He was able to save a few months’ worth of cultivation resources.
This was a good deal.
Although there were many resources in the ore vein, it took a long time to get the final product…
It was barely enough for his cultivation!
It was impossible to sell it for money!
“Why don’t you use a warning device?”
Lu Ming was doubtful.
Restriction + Warning Card, wasn’t this the simplest warning device? Why didn’t he install one? They were basic devices and it would not cost a lot.
“No need, no need.”
Fan Ze waved his hand. “I know a guy who can make all electronics and energy devices go out of order instantly. They are too unreliable.”
“Alright.”
Lu Ming’s heart stirred slightly.
Go out of order…
He thought of how he always carried the Card Release Machine with him when he was outside. If he ran across a cultivator with such an ability, would he have to bow down right away?
Sure enough, it was most important to improve one’s ability!
At this very moment…
Lights surged when they passed by a certain area in the mansion.
Lu Ming looked at it automatically. Oh, it was the cultivating area.
“Does this place require restrictions?”
Lu Ming looked at Fan Ze.
“That is not needed here.”
Fan Ze waved his hands. “I have already set up restrictions here.”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming took a closer look. There was nothing.
“Hehe.”
Fan Ze smiled mysteriously.
Swoosh!
Fan Ze took a stone and hurled it toward the area.
Just when the stone was about to fly past the entrance, flashes of green lights surged. Countless vines appeared from the green plants, sealing up the entrance.
Click!
The stone was squashed instantly.
This…
Lu Ming was amazed.
Right then, the vines retracted slowly, turning into ordinary green plants.
Low profile.
Harmless.
“Plants Restriction!” Lu Ming exclaimed.
This amazing plant contained simple sentience and could identify one’s aura. That was to say, apart from Fan Ze, everyone who went in would die!
This belonged to the active restriction family!
It was extremely powerful!
It was said that they were four-star and above. This was the first time that Lu Ming saw it.
“Work harder.”
Fan Ze patted Lu Ming on the shoulder and looked toward the green plants.
Hehe.
This time…
He would see who would dare to steal from him!
The level one Card Restriction + Warning Card lamination that covered the entire mansion was enough to fight against a large group of people. It was impossible for anyone to sneak in without being noticed!
Not even Chu Xiao!
Besides, there was the level four Plants Restriction in the cultivation room. It was his trump card!
No matter who came barging in, there was no doubt that the person would die!
Hahahaha.
Chu Xiao, if you have the guts, you can make another attempt!
I was certain that you would not be able to escape alive!
