Director Feng arrived at the Xiupai Hall, which had just opened for business.
He walked in and saw a mushroom man drinking mushroom coffee and reading a newspaper, and a straw man mopping the floor busily at the front desk of the lobby.
I noticed someone coming to the front desk, with a mushroom head sticking out from behind a newspaper.
"Hello, I want to look for Xiu Wushuang."
"Hmm? Who?"
"Show is unparalleled."
"You've come to the wrong place. We don't have this person here."
"Uh, isn't this a card show hall?"
Director Feng walked out of the door and looked up at the cards. It was indeed the Show Card Hall.
What’s going on? Did the boss change?
"Yes, that's right."
"Isn't Xiu Wushuang the curator here?"
"But our curator is called Director Xiu, not Xiu Wushuang."
“…”
(What a lousy front desk! They don’t even know who their own curator is.)
Director Feng secretly complained.
"Xiu Wushuang, I know, it's the curator, damn!"
Fortunately, the straw man shouted out at this time.
"Oh, really? Ahahaha, then go directly to the director's office to find someone."
Mushroom scratched his head.
“Was the coach there at the time?”
Then he asked again.
"Coach Shi, I'm not going to work today."
"Um, when does he come to work?"
“No work for 365 days.”
“No way…”
"Oh no, only four days off work."
"Which four days?"
"Spring, summer, autumn, winter."
“…”
"Oh, that's not right. There are only three days off from work: today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow."
"Not really. I only have two days off from work, day and night."
"Neither, except for one day off work, every day."
Mosaichu said, imitating what he had just seen in the newspaper joke page.
"So the Buddha said...Fuck, I almost got fooled by you."
Director Feng was about to respond when he suddenly came to his senses.
He also read today's newspaper.
"Is the air conditioning turned up too high here?"
The next second, he touched his arm subconsciously and said, "It's so cold."
"And you mop the floor really badly."
Then he looked at the straw man: "There is water everywhere."
Finally, after receiving guidance, Director Feng arrived at the door of the director's office.
There was a small sofa in front of the door, so he sat on it.
"Should I say hello to her before coming..."
After sitting for half an hour, he felt that something seemed to be wrong.
When I walked out of the hall, I saw that there were already members in the card room and the staff had already started working. It looked like a normal business.
So he took out his phone and called Director Xiu.
No one answered the phone.
After calling several times, I finally heard Director Xiu's voice. He didn't sound like he had just woken up, but rather sounded quite energetic.
When he heard that others had arrived, he promised to come within 5 minutes.
"I've heard that she's a hands-off manager, it seems it's not just a rumor."
"And I always feel that the speed of time may be different. The five minutes she refers to is not my five minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Director Feng gave a bitter smile.
So just like that, after the director of the Balance Card Hall in Lanlan City waited in the aisle for nearly two hours, he finally saw the figure of Director Xiu.
From a distance, you can see two nostrils.
This guy walked over with his head held high, looking very arrogant.
"What can I do for you, you defeated one of my employees?"
There is no one else here, so Director Xiu doesn't need to give any face to the other party.
“Ahahaha…”
Director Feng felt a little embarrassed and could only smile awkwardly.
I really lost, there's no way to wash it off.
Seeing that the other party was sensible and did not refute, Director Xiu's attitude finally softened a little and he invited the other party into the office.
"By the way, how is sister-in-law doing lately?"
She poured the other person a cup of tea and sat in the host seat which she was not used to.
"I'm fine. Thanks for your concern."
"I looked at her Moments last time. Congratulations on being ranked fourth among the most popular members of a family of three for ten consecutive years."
"Forget it, let's not mention some honors."
The two of them actually have a very close relationship.
"By the way, your coach Shi... maybe this class can really get outstanding results."
After chatting about family matters for a while, Director Feng turned the topic to Shi Li.
"How many qualifying spots are there in the Lanlan region this time?"
Director Xiu asked. She really hadn't paid much attention to it before.
"The area our city is responsible for this term, um..."
"There are about 5 to 10 people from each city participating in the competition, so there must be several thousand participants."
"Then the final number of qualifying places will be around 50."
“So I think Coach Shi should at least get into the top 50.”
Director Feng touched his chin and said.
Only those who obtain regional quotas are eligible to represent the region and participate in city competitions between regions.
"I heard that in the last session, everyone in your Balance Hall was severely suppressed by the Violence Hall."
Director Xiu recalled what happened in the previous session.
Just like the Balance Card Hall in the Balance zone, the signboard in the Violence zone is the Violence Card Hall.
"That's not the case."
Director Feng sighed and continued to lead the topic in the direction he wanted, "And I heard that this time, a god team appeared in the Wisdom District."
Director Xiu: "Team God?"
Director Feng: "Yes, the player who was reincarnated as a god and awakened his memory through some kind of opportunity."
Director Xiu: "So what? I've read in books that the card skills of gods vary. What's more, after reincarnation, the deck is gone."
Director Feng: "It's hard to say. I just heard that they are not weak."
"So you want to win over our little boy, right?"
Director Xiu has already guessed the other party's thoughts.
"That's right. I wonder if Coach Shi has thought about changing jobs. Of course, he wants to switch to our card room after he gets the quota to play in this city."
Director Feng stated the purpose of his visit.
"You are so brave. The person who poached me even came to give me a special notice?"
If it was someone she wasn't so familiar with, she would have kicked him out.
"It's his own business, of course, so he has to decide for himself. My opinion doesn't count."
Now, she just spread her hands.
Director Feng: "Or, let him work two jobs and sign contracts with both of our card halls at the same time?"
Director Xiu: "Haha, working two jobs?"
Director Feng: "Or, could you make me an honorary employee or something like that?"
Director Xiu: "During this period, whenever you lead the delegation to a city, if you find a potential and capable contestant, do you recruit them in this way?"
Director Feng: "Of course, and we have already recruited a few."
Director Xiu: "Then is there anyone among them who beat you in a card game?"
Director Feng: "Hmm? Xiu Wushuang?"
Director Xiu: "Hahahaha burp!"
But despite the joking, Director Xiu still agreed to help convey this matter to the other party.
If Shi Li is interested, he can contact Director Feng directly by phone.
At this point, Director Feng’s goal was barely achieved.
It was obvious that Director Xiu was still planning to tease him, but he knew it was not a good place to stay for long.
"Oh, there's one more thing."
But as soon as he stood up, he turned around again.
"You know, I've done some research on scene cards."
"I sat down with Coach Shi yesterday, and I found that his Kung Fu cards have quite potential."
He had only glanced at the information before, and only after the actual fight did he realize that Shi Li's Kung Fu deck was quite good in terms of application proficiency and strength.
The key is that Kung Fu is a very niche label and is not easily targeted.
If we have to say, there are probably two directions that can best restrain them.
The first one is similar to the slime deck I had last night, an attack and damage reduction type.
According to his observation, at least for now, Shi Li's Kung Fu decks all rely on attacks.
For example, there are no non-attack damage skills such as energy damage, wave damage, poison damage, etc.
The second type is the restraint card with a wider range, such as humanoid card restraint and flesh and blood life restraint.
Because Kung Fu cards are basically human-shaped cards + flesh and blood cards.
However, the more targeted the restraining terms are, the stronger their effects are.
The widely used restraining terms either have bad appearance, weak restraining effect, or have costly side effects or something.
Of course, the [Breaking Sword] I saw yesterday was a special case.
The coverage is wide, the effect is strong, and it's a little monster.
You have to know that this is only a B-level card. If it were an A-level card, he would hardly be able to imagine it.
Moreover, even he had only seen a few of the seven major restraining cards.
"So please tell him that the Kung Fu deck is worth further exploration and cultivation."
"Haha, you're the defeated general."
"Fuck you, forget it."
Director Feng was speechless after hearing these words, so he simply took out a small scroll from his pocket.
"I have a scenario card recipe here that is more suitable for Kung Fu cards."
"You only need some not-too-expensive material cards to synthesize a D-level scene card."
"And those material cards all have many substitutes."
"Please help me deliver it to him."
After saying that, he threw the scroll over.
It should be noted that this was not a bribe intended to impress Shi Li.
Rather, I simply felt that this recipe was a bit of a waste in my hands.
Now I have met a new player who is suitable for this scene card, so I might as well give it to him.
Just think of it as love for talent.
"Huh? Still unopened?"
Director Xiu took the scroll and raised his eyebrows.
The rope buckle on the scroll is made of blue light energy.
It means once unlocked, it will be bound immediately.
As an experienced poker player, she certainly knew what this was.
Consumable recipe.
Simply put, rubbing the corresponding material card A + material card B together may result in a burst of cards or fusion into something else.
If you want to make a card from this recipe, you need the corresponding material card A + material card B + recipe scroll. All three are indispensable.
"Well, it's the reward I got from the card-making dungeon."
"I have already reviewed the effects of the cards in the dungeon mission, so don't worry."
"Goodbye."
Director Feng waved his hand and walked out of the office in a cool manner.
"Thanks. Consider this your prize for losing to him."
However, the voice of Director Xiu coming from the other end made him fail in his attempt to show off, and he could only quicken his pace and leave.
I won’t be coming back to this city in a few years, bah!
Oh, that’s not right, Xiu Wushuang should also go to Lanlan City by then!
provoke.
Thinking of this, Director Feng’s mood suddenly turned bad.
…
In the evening, Shi Li came to the card hall.
Director Xiu contacted him at noon, but he didn't come.
It’s not that I’m being a big shot or anything, but playing the 9+1 card game with Director Feng is really tiring.
The intensity of the fight is even higher than the previous 6+1 1V10 at the same time.
All the calculation factors, predictions, psychological games, etc. involved are too complex and too huge.
So I went home last night, had a midnight snack, and then slept from dusk to dawn and then to dusk again.
I saw the other party's text message when I woke up. Seeing that so much time had passed, I decided not to rush. After washing and eating, I walked over slowly.
When we arrived at the card hall, Director Xiu had already left.
He took the scroll from his colleague.
At this time, Shi Li, holding the scroll , sat at his supervisor's workstation.
The desk was extremely clean and there was nothing on it.
"Scene card recipe?"
"Director Feng is actually quite a nice guy."
He played with it in his hand for a while and took a few glances at it.
Made of soft yet tough silk or paper, the scroll is long, narrow and perfectly rounded.
The surface is carefully decorated, showing exquisite patterns and delicate painting techniques.
The edges of the scroll are carefully decorated with gorgeous white and silver metal inlays, making the entire scroll more luxurious and eye-catching.
"It doesn't seem like it's something of too high a grade."
Now he has developed an eye for physical objects.
The quality of the scroll can be roughly judged from its appearance and the aura it exudes.
Although it looks exquisite, it has no spontaneous luster.
Generally, those with higher grades will emit some light.
This thing is probably between D and C.
It’s just free, so don’t miss it.
Thinking of this, he used his thumb and index finger to fiddle with the button that glowed blue.
【bite!】
With a slight sound, the scroll suddenly turned into a blue light. After circling in front of him for a few times, it shot directly towards Shi Li and sank into his forehead.
Then, an additional piece of information appeared in his mind.
"Oh? That's interesting!"
After browsing this information, Shi Li's eyes suddenly lit up.
The scene card recipe has been bound, and he needs to open the card making panel to see and call out this thing.
There was no one else in the office, so I simply switched the card-making panel to visual mode.
"It's a one-time thing. Once you use it, the scroll is gone."
Shi Li felt a little regretful about this.
First put the scroll into the panel.
Then, according to the information on the scroll, I found two material cards that met (? ) the required type and placed them on the panel.
There are two material cards, one is the E-level [Band-Aid], and the other is the D-level [Broken Half of the Stone Tablet].
They are all drawn from dungeons and are useless cards that have no effect after being previewed.
However, after a preview, something magical happened.
Two material cards that were obviously useless and incompatible with each other actually produced a new result through the combination of the recipe.
【Stone Tablet Boundary】
Scene, D
[Fist Healing]: Each round, designate a card slot on your side, and when the card on that slot attacks 2 times or more during the round, gain 1 point of [Healing].
"Aside from the poor effect, this scene card is really useful for my deck."
"No wonder Director Feng said that the Kung Fu deck is suitable for me."
The mechanics of this scene card are very interesting.
When attacking 2 or more times in 1 round, the healing effect will be obtained.
You should know that among your Kung Fu cards, there are many cards that can achieve 2 hits in 1 round.
The [Two Combos] of [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit] and the counterattack of [Wu Monkey].
Also, when [Crow Man] is on the field, theoretically each of your Kung Fu cards has the ability to hit twice in one round.
No wonder Director Feng said that this card is extremely suitable for him.
"But it's probably because the quality of the material cards is not good enough. The effect is very poor."
“It feels like it’s not enough to only have one slot to enjoy it.”
"Not to mention that he only recovered 1 health point."
Although sometimes 1 point of health can be the key to whether a card can survive to the next round, this value is too small and it makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
At least it can be like [Night Parade of a Hundred Demons], with 5 points of [Healing].
"I feel like one of these two material cards should be responsible for providing healing effects."
"The other one is responsible for becoming the cornerstone of the barrier."
"From the perspective of position, the cornerstone card is the main body, the treatment effect is the material side, and then the formula is added."
Using the knowledge points he had recently learned from reading, Shi Li began to analyze.
"What if... I change the main body?"
"Change the main material to, for example... [One Hundred Demons Night Parade]?"
Shi Li came up with an idea.
So [One Hundred Demons Night Parade] + [Band-Aid] + formula = [Demon Attack Barrier]
[Demon Attack Barrier]
Scene, D
[Mist Moisturizing]: Each round, specify 3 slots on your side. When the monster card on that slot attacks 2 times or more during the round, gain 1 point of [Healing]
“It actually works!”
"Since the evil fog can affect a larger area, it has been changed from specifying 1 grid to specifying 3 grids."
"This treatment effect is still useless."
"What if we put [One Hundred Demons Night Parade] in the place of materials?"
Soon, Shi Li replaced the deck of cards.
[Broken Half of the Stone Tablet] + [One Hundred Demons Night Parade] + Recipe = [Monument in the Mist]
【Monument in the Mist】
Scene, D
[Monument Mist]: Each round, designate a card slot on your side, and when the card on that slot attacks 2 or more times during the round, gain 5 points of [Healing]
"The amount of healing has increased, but the problem of the card position has not been solved."
He held his chin and thought for a moment.
This shows that [Night Parade of a Hundred Demons] is the key variable to increase the amount of healing.
It's actually not a big deal if this card is used as material .
First of all, I have very few monster cards, so it is difficult to complete a set.
An incomplete deck of cards will naturally greatly reduce the effectiveness of [A Hundred Demons Night Parade].
Secondly, he didn't really want to build a monster card deck.
Because the label covers too many areas and is too easy to be targeted.
"But it is a scene card after all. If it can turn it into an effect where all Kung Fu cards are revealed with 5 points of [Healing] per turn, I can accept it."
"Converting it to only 1 grid and 5 points of attack and healing now is a bit of an overkill."
"Forget it, I'd better solve the range problem of this card first."
Shi Liyou noticed that the previous [Demon Attack Barrier] had a larger coverage area because it targeted monster cards.
It can be understood that the number of cards covered by the label "monster cards" is definitely much smaller than the number of cards of all types.
Therefore, as a compensation for the mechanism, the number of grids where scene cards take effect has been increased.
Thinking of this, he started to conduct a few experiments.
As I previewed the experiment, the answer became clear.
