Late at night.
At the Assassin Association branch. A shadow appeared.
"I heard …
"Zhao Yunshan has escaped."
A hoarse voice could be heard.
"Yes."
A figure replied.
"You shouldn't have let him live."
The hoarse voice said.
"The information was wrong. His combat ability is stronger than we imagined."
The figure replied.
"He is after all a disciple of the Sword Card Master Association. Letting him go will bring us risks."
The hoarse voice said.
"Don't worry."
The figure was very calm. "They don't have any evidence to prove that the Assassin is us. The Assassin Association has never been involved in such things, right? This is an ordinary assassination. No matter what, we can't blame the Assassin Association. Also …
"There are not many people in the Sword Card Master Association.
"Do you really think …
"Will Lu Ming seek revenge for a disciple?
"He won't.
"No one will either."
He was very clear.
"…"
The hoarse voice paused for a moment. "Anyway, be more careful."
"Don't worry."
The figure was very calm.
After a long time …
The two of them disappeared again.
…
At this very moment …
Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming's life had returned to normal.
Every day, he would study the cards and familiarize himself with the characteristics.
Although Xiao-Xiaojian had outstanding abilities and had the Sky Water Sword's [Intuition] and the metal rod's [Bickering], the data that it inherited was not high.
He had to constantly familiarize himself with it.
The data that the Original Card inherited would gradually increase.
These few days …
All the Sword Card Masters were working hard.
However …
Zhao Yunshan was still very worried.
He was used to being assassinated. The Assassin Association was not a big deal. He had seen many of them putting on one front but doing one thing behind the scenes.
He would just deal a financial blow later.
As for the rest …
It was really unnecessary.
He was very clear that if he were to go against the Assassin Association now … Given the Sword Card Master Association's current strength, they would definitely suffer a great loss!
Therefore …
He had been worried that his master would seek revenge for him. In particular, his master's final sneer that day … To be honest, it was quite scary.
Thankfully …
His master had been creating cards in his room for the past two days.
"Master?"
Zhao Yunshan carefully crept in. "What are you …"
"Creating cards!"
Lu Ming sighed. "We still have to earn money. The money we earned back then has been donated. The association has to continue operating."
"Oh, oh, oh."
Zhao Yunshan was relieved.
Oh …
As long as it wasn't a direct confrontation with the Assassin's Association.
"Master."
"I can donate some pocket money."
Zhao Yunshan patted his chest.
"Get lost!"
Lu Ming said in annoyance, "It's fine if there aren't many people in the association now. But when the association gets bigger in the future, are you going to support it too?"
Uh —
Zhao Yunshan immediately became listless.
If they developed to the scale of Energy Warriors, he really could not afford to support them.
"Anyway."
"Making money has to be sustainable. Do you understand?"
Lu Ming said.
"Yes."
Zhao Yunshan expressed that he understood.
After a long while …
He took his leave.
Lu Ming's office soon fell silent again.
Rustle.
Rustle.
Lu Ming created cards quietly.
He had been too busy recently and did not have time to develop cards. He had to strive for Six Stars and stabilize his realm. Therefore, he had been putting the matter of cards aside.
However …
If it was just this card, it would not affect him.
Shush!
Lu Ming created this card gingerly.
Well …
The lines were familiar. Sunlight Card.
However …
Unlike in the past, Lu Ming was studying the lines of the Sunlight Card very seriously this time. All the data and information of the Sunlight Card flashed in his mind.
Oh, increase …
Oh, Sun …
He matched the lines with the functions.
In the end …
Lu Ming removed one-third of the lines of the Sunlight Card and condensed the remaining lines to develop a brand new castration card!
There was only one function left!
The original effect of the Sunlight Card was too strong and the conditions were too complicated!
Because …
The essence of Lu Ming's research this time was to weaken it. He kept weakening it and lowering the conditions, as long as he could cast this card!
Oo …
This was not enough.
Lu Ming pondered for a long time and added a large number of lines. He used the most advanced techniques to fill the energy and reduce the usage of this card.
Lamination!
Lamination!
And lamination!
In the end …
This card became a card that could be used by Three Stars — "Sun Card".
Afterward …
Lu Ming divided the ability of the Sunlight Card into dozens of modules and handed them to his disciples to create. In the end, they were combined in an assembly line.
Two days.
The association had accumulated a large number of Sun Cards.
"Haoran, send invitations to all the major associations."
Lu Ming smiled faintly. "Tell them that our new card is ready to be sold."
"Huh?"
Li Haoran was puzzled. "Don't … don't we need to encrypt it?"
What were the characteristics of a commercial card?
Encryption!
It had to be encrypted!
Even under such circumstances, there was a possibility that it could be cracked. No one would be like his master. He did not even bother to encrypt it and directly sold it?!
"Don't worry."
Lu Ming was very calm. "I have my own arrangements."
"Understood."
Li Haoran went to make the arrangements.
After a long time …
Lu Ming's new card was about to be sold!
It caused a sensation in Tian Du City!
As the president of the Sword Card Master Association and the creator of various special cards, Lu Ming was very popular in the card field!
In the past …
Every card that Lu Ming sold had a different meaning!
It was even rumored that the reason why Lu Ming did not create cards for a long time was that every time a card was created, it would be bought by the major associations!
For example —
The rumored Elimination Card and the like!
Therefore …
There was a lot of discussion.
The higher-ups of the various associations in Tian Du City were tense. They were so scared that their faces turned green. They tried their best to get people to find out more about this new card.
"How much energy is consumed? What is its function? "
"You don't know?"
"What's the use of having you?! Hurry up and go check it for me! "
The presidents were furious.
They could ignore the abilities of the Sword Card Master Association. However, Lu Ming had caused trouble several times in a row!
They had to guard against him!
Especially those associations that had been scammed by Lu Ming!
For example —
The Elementalist Association that had been scammed by the Family Bonds Card, the Energy Warrior Association that had been scammed by the Stealing Card, the Summoner Association that had been scammed by the Elimination Card and …
The Swordsman Association that had been scammed by the Shadow Sword.
Wait a minute.
How could they not be anxious?
What if it was another one that targeted their association …
At least they could make preparations in advance!
…
The Summoner Association.
The vice president patted a new disciple's shoulder affectionately. "Child, I heard that a disciple of the Sword Card Master Association is wooing your sister?"
The disciple was speechless.
The Energy Warrior Association.
The president of the branch called a disciple. "Child, I heard that your second aunt is a cleaner in the Sword Card Master Association?"
The disciple was speechless.
After a long time …
The various associations tried all means and finally found some information.
Oh …
Sun Card.
It was used for enhancement. Therefore, it should have nothing to do with them?
"I think we are thinking too much?"
The president of the Tian Du City Summoner Association pulled everyone into a group chat to discuss Lu Ming's new card.
In the end …
Everyone agreed that Lu Ming only wanted to earn money.
They heard that Lu Ming had donated all his money a few days ago. The Sword Card Master Association was really out of money now. Therefore, they were selling new cards to earn money!!!
At the thought of this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"Why don't we lend him some money for emergency use?"
The president of the Summoner Association suggested.
The other presidents were speechless.
Aren't you being too cowardly?!
"Hehe."
The president of the Summoner Association smiled wryly.
They had no choice but to be cowardly!
Because of Lu Ming, the Summoner Association had been tormented twice! The last time, the big shots from the headquarters came personally. If something were to happen again …
He reckoned that he would be done for.
"You don't have to worry."
A female president who majored in mental strength sent a voice message gently. "I heard that Lu Ming has a very good reputation. The seniors are praising him!"
Shush!
There was silence in the group chat.
The presidents did not say anything for a long time.
Reputation …
Does Lu Ming have a good reputation?!
Do you think that doing charity can cleanse your dirty heart?
No.
You can't!
Even the president of the Swordsman Association, who had just thanked Lu Ming, had a sullen expression … Damn it! The money that Lu Ming donated belonged to the Swordsman Association!
Good reputation, my foot!
However …
Since it was purely a money-making card, there should not be too much risk?
Hence …
The next day.
The presidents of the various associations in Tian Du City arrived at the Sword Card Master Association as promised.
At the news conference.
When Lu Ming cast the "Sun Card" that did not look too outstanding in front of the public for the first time, the cultivators were collectively speechless.
This was a very ordinary card.
Its only ability was an increase, but it was very weak. It could only increase by 10%!
It was better than nothing.
However …
With this useless increase, it also had a very small characteristic that everyone neglected — It could destroy all shadows formed under certain conditions!
In the new card demonstration …
Shush!
When an Assassin assassinated an Elementalist …
Bang!
The Sun flashed.
A dazzling light emerged from the back of the target's head. It was so intense that one could not look at it. The terrifying light drove away all the shadows …
The Assassin was dumbstruck on the spot.
Afterward …
The Assassin died.
"This is …"
The eyes of the Elementalists lit up.
With this card, their survival ability would be greatly increased!
Shush!
The scene changed.
When an Assassin sneaked toward a summoned beast with a tranquilizer.
Bang!
The Sun Wheel appeared on the summoned beast.
The thief who was about to succeed was instantly destroyed by the furious summoned beast …
It was cold.
"It is very powerful!"
The Summoners were tempted.
Not only did their summoned beasts die in battles, but they also disappeared during poaching! According to incomplete statistics, 12% of the summoned beasts were secretly stolen every year!
In terms of quantity …
It was definitely an astronomical figure!
This was the pain in the hearts of all the summoned beasts.
And now …
With this Sun Card as their trump card, they seemed to see hope. They no longer had to worry about those damn pet traffickers!
Shush!
The eyes of the presidents lit up.
This card …
This was a card that truly benefited the cultivators!
For cultivators like them who cultivated peacefully, this kind of card was very beneficial.
"Lu Ming, this child …"
The tone of the president of the Summoner Association finally softened.
This child …
Perhaps he was not as petty as they had imagined?
"Look."
This time, he had made a genuine welfare card!
Super demand!
Super effect!
"Yes."
The president of the Elementalist Association thought so too.
The Family Bond Card, Elimination Card, and so on might just be a coincidence!
Perhaps …
They had really misunderstood him in the past?
However …
At this moment.
The president of the Swordsman Association only said one sentence. "Well, I heard that a group of killers ambushed Zhao Yunshan two days ago …"
Shush!
The presidents were instantly silent.
Zhao Yunshan — Killer — Assassin Association — Sun Card …
Oh.
Crap.
The presidents suddenly understood.
Yes.
True enough, they had indeed misunderstood Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was not petty at all. He was so vengeful that it made one's hair stand on end!
Just because some killers ambushed Zhao Yunshan, Lu Ming planned to create a card to wipe out the entire Assassin Association and this industry …
Goodness.
It was horrifying at the thought of it!
Although they could not associate 'killer organizations' with 'Assassin Association', in essence, 50% of the killers were Assassins!! The other vocations combined were not as many as the Assassins!
Therefore …
Of course, they were happy to see this.
Shush!
The few presidents glanced at each other and secretly decided not to provoke Lu Ming in the future!
However …
The Assassin Association?
The presidents glanced at each other.
"Lu Ming might be in trouble."
"Yes."
"This association … is very tricky to deal with …"
The president of the Swordsman Association squinted his eyes. "Lu Ming has chosen a good opponent this time. Heh … This is much harder to deal with than the Elementalist Association."
“？？？”
The Elementalist Association's face darkened. Isn't it harder to deal with the Swordsman Association?
That is the Assassin Association!
The legendary …
Forget it.
This had nothing to do with them.
Right now …
Since this card was on sale, the most important thing was to buy, buy, buy!
Hence …
The "Sun Card" was sold out on the day it was released!
The thousands of Sun Cards that Lu Ming had prepared were sold out within an hour. The Sword Card Master Association had made up for their losses during this period.
…
After a long while …
Everyone was shocked when the news spread on the Internet.
Sun Card …
Eliminate shadows!
There was actually such a card in this world?!
Almost everyone who often went on adventures in the wild wanted to prepare one. The card that Lu Ming released was already very popular even before it was released!
Of course.
The most popular place for this card was the Assassin forum.
Over there …
All the Assassins had a mental breakdown.
This card …
It blocked all their paths!
"We're done for!
"It's not easy for me to earn money.
"I-I … am not interested in assassination. I chose to be an Assassin for the sake of concealment and safety …
"Me too."
The Assassins cried.
The Assassin was a powerful vocation. Cultivators were willing to choose it because the Assassin had strong survival and concealment abilities.
Their combat abilities were also extraordinary.
However …
Regardless of whether they were assassinations, the essence of the Assassin's skills was to attack in the dark!
Even if it was a battle in the arena or a challenge, they would turn into a shadow and make their figures blurry to create visual conditions.
But now …
It was over.
When the 24k titanium alloy eyes of the Sun Card shone and swept across them, no shadow could survive …
It was still fine in other cities.
Tian Du City.
According to the data from a third-party organization —
With the continuous sales of the Sun Card from the Sword Card Master Association, the Assassin industry had entered a stage of decline.
On the same day —
The average assassination success rate dropped from the original 65% to 35%. At least dozens of people encountered the counterattack of the Sun Card while assassinating in the wild!
The average winning rate in the arena challenge dropped from the original 54% to 12%!
Yes.
This was even worse.
The other party just stood on the spot. When the Sun Card was activated …
The Assassin knelt down.
Without concealment abilities, the Assassin had nowhere to hide. He was simply a live target!!! Unless his combat ability far surpassed the other party, otherwise …
You can just wait to be tortured to death!
In the online community.
Techniques forum.
All the places that had internet access were filled with the cries of the Assassins. The netizens also affectionately called this card — End of Lineage Card.
With this card, he could easily beat the Assassins until they called him grandpa.
On the third day!
A certain magazine published the vocation ranking for September. The Assassin Association, which was originally ranked sixth, was known as the Child of the Night …
It dropped to the 38th place!
The reason —
Of course, it was because of the "Sun Card".
Many Assassins in Tian Du City left the association to switch vocations. Various associations also cheerfully went to the association to poach the geniuses from the Assassin Association.
At this very moment …
In the group chat of presidents of Tian Du City.
"Don't go overboard!"
The president of the Assassin Association threatened. "How dare you poach our disciples. Be careful of your disciples!"
"Come on."
The president of the Summoner Association said cheerfully, "We have placed the Sun Card on every summoned beast … Hehe, you can try to steal it."
"…"
The president of the Assassin Association was silent.
Damn it!
Everything was fine. Why did it turn out this way?
Lu Ming …
The Sun Card …
The president of the Assassin Association frowned.
He could not understand.
It was true.
Why was it that a mere Three Star Card could be that powerful?! Why did Lu Ming have to come up with such a card to deal with their association?! Why was it that Lu Ming's card creating skills were so high that he could come up with it so easily?!
Of course.
Most importantly, he did not expect Lu Ming to be that crazy!
Merely …
In order to stand up for Zhao Yunshan, he attacked the entire industry!
Was he crazy?
One had to know …
The Assassin Association was far more dangerous than any other association!
Since ancient times, many self-proclaimed righteous big shots had tried to destroy the Assassin Association but were eventually defeated by the big shots of the Assassin Association!
And now …
Lu Ming was merely a peak five-star! A president who did not even have a seven-star in the association! He actually challenged the entire industry!
Lu Ming …
Do you know that you are courting death?
…
PS: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone!??? (?? Ω `)???
