The next day.
Lu Ming woke up to open his shop as usual. However, he heard from a customer that a shop not far away was robbed and suffered heavy losses last night.
This made Lu Ming feel a strange sense of disorientation — Did something happen here?
This was the city center!
"Aren't those guys from the law enforcement department around?"
Lu Ming frowned.
"Fortunately, they aren't around."
A customer sighed. "I heard that the person is very powerful. He smashed the security door with a casual wave of his hand. Given his strength, even if the police rush here, they will only be killed."
"A casual wave of his hand?!"
Lu Ming looked at the security door of his house.
The security door installed in the market was very stable. Ordinary cultivators would not be able to break it. However, it was smashed into pieces. How powerful was that guy?
If that guy came to his shop yesterday …
One had to know …
He stayed in the shop for the night!
Lu Ming felt a chill down his spine.
Indeed …
This was the city. No matter how powerful the person was, the law enforcement department had to give them an explanation. However, they would be dead by then. What was the point of giving an explanation?
This world …
Lu Ming was in a trance.
These few days, the explosive sales of Fruit Ninja made him have an illusion that this world was no different from his previous life. Until today.
Perhaps, this was the true face of this world?
"Boss, give me a Fruit Ninja Card."
A customer came to the shop.
"Okay."
Lu Ming came to his senses and went to prepare the card.
In fact, there were not many people in the shop in the morning. While he was creating cards, he was thinking about security issues. The shop that was robbed, the existence of the Black Cat …
These finally made him start to seriously think about how to increase his ability.
This world was more dangerous than he had imagined!
Ability was the way to go!
"I have to become stronger!"
This thought emerged in Lu Ming's mind.
However …
Card Creators were essentially an auxiliary vocation. They did not have any combat abilities. Ordinary Card Creators could not afford to provoke them because they always had a stack of Battle Cards with them.
Therefore, no one was willing to provoke Card Creators.
However …
He needed energy to cast Battle Cards!
Lu Ming looked at his pitiful 60 points of energy. He could only cast one Battle Card! At the moment, he only had basic One Star Cards such as Fireball Skill.
If he really encountered an enemy, he would be dead.
"That won't do."
Lu Ming had a headache.
Card Creator …
Battle …
He searched on the Internet and really did find some videos of card masters fighting. After excitedly opening them, he didn't have much interest in them for more than a few seconds.
How did a Card Creator fight?
Smash!
Smash it with Battle Cards!
One is not enough?
Two!
Two is not enough?
Three!
The most awesome video that Lu Ming had seen was of that Three Star card master abruptly grinding the powerful Three Star elementalist to death.
All sorts of powerful Battle Cards!
What? Not enough energy?
How could this be?
That Card Creator had a stack of Energy Cards with him!
"…"
Lu Ming was silent.
Although the comments below were saying that Card Creators were awesome and Card Creators were mighty, after reading it, he felt that this … seemed … to have nothing to do with Card Creators?
This was purely because he was rich, right?!
What a tycoon!
No matter how awesome he was, did it have anything to do with his profession?!
Regardless of his profession, he could use Battle Cards to smash him!
Lu Ming had no energy to complain. He had always felt that tycoons should be a separate profession.
However …
Even if one was a tycoon, one's cultivation level had to be sufficient.
If one's energy level could not even reach the minimum energy requirement of the card, one would not be able to activate it! What was the use of preparing more cards and Energy Cards?
Therefore …
Regardless of whether one was a tycoon or not, one's cultivation level was the most important.
"I only have sixty points of energy."
"It's too weak."
Lu Ming was very serious in his analysis.
According to his statistics of the One Star abilities, those that required fifty to sixty points of energy were considered the lowest level abilities. Those that required sixty to one hundred points of energy were considered a stronger ability. Those that required more than one hundred points of energy were already the most powerful One Star abilities.
If he wanted to cast a powerful One Star Card, he had to ensure that he had at least one hundred points of energy!
This was the only way he could activate those cards. Even if one's energy was depleted, it was alright to use Energy Cards to replenish it.
The most important thing was to reach the minimum requirement.
Therefore, Lu Ming's goal was very clear. He had to increase his energy level to one hundred points.
"One hundred points …"
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
According to Little Lu Ming's memory, he spent a year to build the Original Card model and became a Card Creator. At that time, the energy level of the Original Card was only eighteen points.
Subsequently, he spent another year to increase it to forty-eight points.
It was so low that it was appalling.
Only Heaven knew.
He needed one thousand points of energy to break through to Two Stars Card Creator!
"Indeed, a Card Creator requires a lot of resources to cultivate.
Little Lu Ming's original cultivation method was to create Energy Cards and wait for them to recover naturally. He did not even dare to use Energy Stones with his pitiful amount of money.
Of course, the speed of improvement was slow.
But I created crazily for the past few days and the energy was endless. I increased my energy level by twelve points in ten days! Therefore, if I want to increase my energy level …
I need money.
No, to be more precise, I need a lot of resources. "
Lu Ming thought to himself.
He did not have much money left. The income from the Fruit Ninja event had been used to repay the loan. The remaining money could only be used for the operation of the shop.
Create another card?
He really did not have one.
Initially, Little Lu Ming was still at the bottom of the Card Creator circle. His understanding of Card Creators was still at the stage of burning discs. Lu Ming had thousands of ideas in his mind, but he did not know if they could be realized.
Of course.
Most importantly —
Apart from Fruit Ninja, all the other cards required a lot of energy!
"This is a vicious cycle."
Lu Ming was filled with emotions.
Could it be that he really had to improve slowly?
That might not be the case.
Lu Ming's expression changed slightly. He suddenly thought of something.
He opened Little Lu Ming's cell phone and scrolled down. Very quickly, he found a message from the college — "Notice of the College and the Crystal Factory Internship Activity".
Yes.
This was an internship activity.
This was an activity jointly organized by the vocational college that Lu Ming was in and a certain factory.
Duration: Seven days.
According to the content, this activity was to train the students' practical ability and awareness of hardship. It would allow the students to understand the working environment in advance. It was very beneficial for their future career planning.
However …
In essence …
It was to trick all the students into doing free labor.
Little Lu Ming had participated last year. The annual internship activity was said to be very precious. Therefore, he went there excitedly. Later on, he discovered that it was really hard labor!
They had to look for Energy Stones in the mine ruins and hand them over to the factory!
This was because all the students were cultivators. Regardless of combat vocation or auxiliary vocation, they could use their own energy to sense those stones.
What was worse was —
Under normal circumstances, the ordinary employees of the factory would receive a performance bonus when they handed in Energy Stones. The more they handed in, the more bonus they would receive. This was also to prevent the employees from keeping the stones for themselves.
As for the internship students, the college would be considerate enough to exchange them for credits.
It was useless!
Therefore, basically, only the new students who had just enrolled would participate in this kind of deceptive activity! The second-year students would not even bother with this notice!
"Internship …"
Lu Ming's interest was piqued.
He looked at the history of the college.
In fact, there was originally no such activity.
However, as the educational institution required all schools to nurture the students' practical ability, they strongly requested all colleges to organize at least one free off-campus activity a year.
This was originally a good thing.
However …
You know.
There were policies from above and countermeasures from below.
The welfare that should have been given to the students had unknowingly become like this.
And because Lu Ming's college belonged to the lowest vocational college, no one cared about it. After a few years, the free internship had become a college tradition.
"This activity …"
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
He did not care whether the internship activity was deceptive or not.
What he cared about was the content of the internship activity — mining! He would go to the energy cave and dig out the Energy Stones hidden in the stones!
Did this mean that …
He could cultivate directly inside?
Of course.
The Energy Stones in the mine ruins were different from the pure Energy Stones sold on the market. The purity was very low and the absorption speed was very slow.
There might only be a few hundred points of energy in a huge Energy Stone.
Moreover, the density of the energy was extremely uneven. It was high and low at times. If he absorbed it directly, the energy might be interrupted at any time. It was very deceptive!
What would it feel like to have the energy interrupted in the middle of releasing a skill?
Many people in the hospital would provide the best answer.
Therefore, this kind of Energy Stone was not suitable for storage.
Under normal circumstances …
These Energy Stones would only be sold on the market after they were processed and refined by the factory to remove the impurities and turn into pure Energy Stones.
But what was Lu Ming's vocation?
Card Creator!
Impurities?
Interrupted?
He did not care at all!
He only needed to ensure that every line was complete when he drew the card!
If he was unlucky and the energy was interrupted when he was drawing a line, he could use his own energy to make up for it!
There was no problem at all!
The purity was not high?
It was okay.
He could refine it himself!
Manually refine it!
He could convert these Energy Stones into Energy Cards!
He could then use these Energy Cards.
Therefore, he only needed to prepare a large number of blank cards and he would have endless resources within these seven days!
