"Planeswalker?"
Brando almost groaned. He couldn't help but touch his forehead, wondering if he was dreaming. The young man in front of him who claimed to be Tuman and the special space that brought him into, as well as these bizarre messages, all made his mind a mess.
He had never heard of a profession called Planeswalker in The Amber Sword.
He first wondered if it was a profession that he had never understood. After all, in a world with such a huge and complicated setting and self-improvement every day, it was impossible for him to be omniscient and omnipotent. But then Brando felt a little awkward, and his intuition told him that this conjecture was not valid.
Brando looked calm on the surface, but in his heart, he kept thinking: What is going on? What is a Planeswalker? What is this place?
Tuman's hands were in his sleeves, and his whole body was floating in the dark void. He saw Brando's doubts and replied with a smile, "It seems that you are still very confused. In fact, this is just a refraction spell. It allows the message I left behind to be projected in your mind through this, so you don't have to be nervous. This is just your own inner world. Everything here is constructed according to your inner thoughts – "
Brando knew that he meant to say subconscious.
"You mean, this is a spell effect that affects the mind? But why is my unyielding will not respond? "He calmed down a little, but immediately asked," How do I get out of here? "Because he suddenly remembered that he was still in danger and could not waste time here.
"Why are you in a hurry to leave, because this is the world in your mind. Everything happens here as fast as your thoughts. The Bastians have a saying: 'People can finish a long dream in a short moment'. Because people's thoughts are as fast as lightning, you can have many thoughts in an instant, and before these thoughts are over, not even a second has passed. "
Tuman laughed and said, "Even if you are going to die in the next second, here, you can live for a quarter of an hour."
Brando carefully digested the meaning of the Elemental Emperor's words. Rationally, he was more willing to believe this explanation, but instinctively he could not help but consider the danger outside. He took a breath and asked, "I understand, but let's finish this message quickly. Emperor Tuman, what do you want to say to me? What is a Planeswalker? "
Forcing himself to calm down, Brando began to figure out the meaning of this' dream '. Since Tuman said that this was a projection of a message, it meant that he had something to tell him. Do you have anything to say? Brando didn't think that there was any connection between them.
Brando was a pure-blooded southerner of Erouine. He had neither the blood of the Miirnas nor the blood of the Bastians. In terms of inheritance, Tuman would not have looked for him alone.
Moreover, there must be some kind of medium to store the spell. In other words, this message was originally stored on something close to him through a triggered spell. Brando lowered his head and could not help but recall carefully, trying to find the suspicious points of the things on his body. First of all, he had to rule out the ordinary items, his clothes, and some small items such as matches and kindling. Excluding the items that he and Tamar had made, such as the cursed crossbow, the statue of the Saint (White Deer), and the mana potion. Finally, it was natural items, such as the fruit of the Golden Demonic Tree, and some magic materials.
Now, the only things that could be considered suspicious were the trivial items he had obtained from the battlefield and the Ring of the Wind Empress.
But those trivial pseudo-magic items were nowhere to be found. The Ring of the Wind Empress had long been appraised in the game. It had a follow-up plot, and Brando had already asked the cripple. The loan shark did indeed know about the ring in the oil painting. According to him, the oil painting was given by a merchant to a Knight that Brando's grandfather used to serve. Then, the Knight gave the oil painting to Brando's grandfather. After that, the oil painting was left in Brando's old house.
As for the story before that, it was a long story. The cripple said that a total of thirteen rings were made. Although they were not authentic, each ring was priceless after hundreds of years. At that time, the merchant wanted to curry favor with the local lord, but he did not know what happened after that.
Even though Brando was still suspicious of the cripple's words, at least it meant that the ring had nothing to do with Tuman, even if it had something to do with the Wind Sage, Saint-Ausol.
The next suspect was the mysterious stone fragment that he obtained from Borg Nesson's corpse. Brando had always suspected that the noble's background was not as simple as it seemed. Amandina was a noble's daughter, so how could it be so coincidental that she learned how to design and make magic devices? In Erouine, this was not a common thing.
Moreover, Brando believed that if he could detect this, others could as well. Tirste must have understood this as well.
He was beginning to suspect that the viscount's motives were not simple.
And now, it seemed that the stone fragment was the most suspicious. But he immediately shook his head and remembered something else. Before he entered this world, he had touched another unknown item — the Scroll of Elemental Revelation. Brando recalled the situation at that time. He clearly remembered that the Scroll of Elemental Revelation had the seal of the Crystal Forest and the unique serial number of the fairies.
In other words, there was nothing wrong with the scroll itself.
However, he had already come to his senses. He finally realized what the key to triggering this spell was: opening the Elemental Pool.
But what was the connection?
He immediately thought of the Cards of Fates. Yes, he had always treated these mysterious cards as skills and not items, so he did not think of them at first. But now that he thought about it, Brando realized that these cards were more suspicious the more he thought about it.
First of all, these cards had never appeared in The Amber Sword.
Perhaps Brando had not heard of a single magic item in the game, so it was not suspicious. However, if a series of magic items had never appeared in the eyes of a hardcore player, it would inevitably raise suspicions. Imagine for a moment: If a person had never heard of a magic item in the game, and if we assume that the world was huge, then it would not be that hard to believe. But if he hadn't even heard of the concept of 'magician's profession equipment', then it would be a little strange.
You might say that he must be a newbie.
But Brando was not a newbie.
Moreover, these cards themselves were not dispensable and insignificant items of little value. They contained a great deal of freedom, and even a warrior could freely control magic. It could be said that they formed a complete class system.
There was no way that Brando had never heard of such a set of magic items.
Not to mention that these things did not appear in some distant country. For example, 'they' only appeared in Madara, Brando's archenemy. If that was the case, Brando would not have had the chance to know about them. On the contrary, the places where the cards appeared were places that he was most familiar with in the past.
Gerald's Tomb, Golden Demonic Tree Valley, Fortress Riedon, Braggs.
These were places that Brando had explored countless times, and he knew every nook and cranny of these places like the back of his hand. Brando could even describe the rumors and actions of all the famous players in these areas in the first three years of the game. He loved this world so much that he could empathize with Erouine.
But the problem now was that he had never heard of these cards. He even suspected that he had let go of his suspicions so easily. Of course, he did not realize that the last time he saw these cards, he was in a situation where he could not even guarantee his survival. Normal people in such an environment would be overjoyed if they got a little help, and not doubt it. That was why it was human nature.
But once he realized it, his suspicions deepened.
Brando could not help but touch his chest, and subconsciously remembered the thought that flashed through his mind. 'These cards form a complete class system.' Brando's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously raised his head. He looked up in disbelief and blurted out, "The Planeswalker you mentioned is …?"
Tuman smiled, "You guessed it right. The Cards of Fate and the Planeswalker are inseparable."
Brando immediately shut his mouth, because he knew that the young Tuman in front of him would tell him everything.
"First of all, I want to clear up a misunderstanding. These Cards of Fate were not created by me. As you can see, their history is much older than what we know." Tuman opened his hand, and there was a Card of Fate in his palm. But it was the back of the card, and there was a complicated sacred pattern drawn on it. "This mark you see is the original sample of the sacred pattern. I simplified it based on my superficial knowledge, and then compiled this knowledge and taught it to the humans, elves, and Miirnas."
"Wait." Tuman raised his hand, stopping Brando from asking. "I know what you want to ask. As the descendant of the Basto and Miirnas, and the mortal enemy of all beings who yearn for the light, why would I help the humans and elves?"
He smiled, "It's actually very simple. As a Planeswalker, my way of looking at things is a little different from the average person. Of course, this is just my own point of view, but it has something to do with my own deck. I was too young at that time, and blindly wanted to pursue the laws and principles of this world, so my deck was called 'All for One'. Following the meaning of this deck, other than the most essential things in the world, there was not much difference in my eyes. "
After hearing this, Brando sat back down. He thought for a moment, and asked the question in his heart, "To be honest," he asked, "I don't really understand what you mean, can you explain it more simply?"
He had no intention of going back now, but he had a vague feeling that this class of Planeswalker would bring about a huge change in his future path. He did not know why he had this thought. Perhaps it was an illusion, or perhaps his intuition and instinct had already smelled a trace of something unusual.
Tuman nodded, "Of course, I will explain it to you in detail."
He continued, "Speaking of Planeswalkers, we have to start with the Cards of Fate. Planeswalkers are the only group of people in this world who can touch the true essence of the Cards of Fate. This essence is the power of the world. Every Card of Fate is a representation of the world from a certain perspective. It is not a simple projection of the laws, nor is it a superficial copy of reality. There are many such cards, and they form a small world. "
"Just like my deck, 'All for One', this deck uses the harmony of the six elements to describe the essence of the world. Therefore, it is also the meaning of my card: the power of the laws."
"As for the other Planeswalker I know, I know that his deck is called 'Unlimited Power'. It's a deck made up of a large number of red and black cards of fate. His deck's intention is to pursue the highest power. The red cards can be seen as fire, but also as power. The black cards can be seen as darkness, but also as death and destruction. "
"Of course, we all failed."
Tuman smiled, "Therefore, the meaning of the cards is actually given by the deck. The magic of the Cards of Fate is that they can express your thoughts and ideas between the world and you from many angles. Even your deck of cards represents the other you in your heart. "
"As for why these cards exist, and where they come from, we actually do not know. The earliest Planeswalkers were probably born during the Dark Ages and spread among the Matatanians. I even suspect that this class itself was born in this society. "
"Rumour has it that the Matatanians are a nomadic race. Their tribe is always moving from one place to another. Their understanding of the world is slightly different from ours. We think that the world is vast and infinite, including infinite things and the concept of knowledge. But in the Matatanians' world view, the world is a very small and narrow concept. They have a bigger concept that is similar to our 'world', called 'Uhs'. This word is the origin of the word 'Infinity' in the Elven and Cruz languages. In the Matatanians' world view, 'Uhs' contains countless small worlds, and they are always moving between worlds. "
"I suspect that they have misunderstood the relationship between the Guarded Ground and the world. Of course, the humans of the past had limited knowledge of the world." Tuman suddenly laughed and said, "I accidentally said so many unimportant things. It seems that it is hard for me to change this habit of mine."
Brando thought for a moment and asked, "I have heard of the Matatanians before, and perhaps now I know that they are the earliest Planeswalkers. But what does this have to do with me?"
Tuman shook his head and said, "Continue listening. The Matatanians divide the day into six stages, and a Planeswalker's day is also strictly divided into six stages. "
The young man with shoulder-length black hair looked at Brando and continued, "The first stage is from dawn to noon. The Matatanians call this period of the day 'Sun Growth', and Planeswalkers call it 'Growth Stage'. In this stage, Planeswalkers can tap their land cards and obtain the necessary mana for the day — "
"Wait!" Brando shouted, "Tap land cards?"
"Yes, tapping land cards is the most basic ability of every Planeswalker. It is also the source of their power. "
"Wait, can you explain it in detail?"
"It is very simple. As long as you have a basic land card and your own Elemental Pool and Mana Pool. You can tap them at this time of the day, and the land card will connect the power of the 'territory' they belong to with your Elemental Pool, and the Elemental Power generated in the 'territory' will be injected into the land card. "
"Wait, but didn't the land card say that one Elemental Power will be generated every week?" Brando could not help but ask.
"That Elemental Power is outside of the Elemental Pool and Mana Pool. It is used as a card to 'lend' new Planeswalkers to understand and come into contact with the power of this world. Once you become an official Planeswalker, you will no longer need it. "Tuman replied.
Brendel thought about it for a while and nodded. "I understand. You can continue."
"During the growth stage, Planeswalkers can also gain benefits from the 'pay' ability of other cards. I remember that you have a gray Earth-type card called 'Highland Squire'. It states that when the Highland Squire exists on the field, the lord can gain one point of reputation every day. And this Reputation Point is the payment during the Growth Stage. "
"At the same time, Planeswalkers can use any cards that are related to Green (Life, Nature), White (Light, Protection, Nurture), Red (Fire, Vitality, Vitality), Blue (Water, Nourishment, Irrigation), and Mixed Cards that contain the above elements."
Brendel furrowed his brows. He had never noticed this problem before. The Shire had mentioned a similar problem to him before, and he mentioned a special case, which was the White Spell Card that did not require any Magic Cards.
"Next, we enter the second stage of the day: from the morning to the scorching sun, which is from 10 am to 2 pm. Not only do the people of Matatania call this time of the day 'The Flourishing of All Things', but the wizards and witches also call this time of the day 'The Ebb Tide'. This is because this is the moment when the power of the sun is at its strongest and the power of the moon is at its weakest, which is also the time when magic is at its weakest. Magic and Elements decrease and increase, so this is the time when the Elements are the most active and aggressive. Thus, Planeswalkers call this stage 'The Flourishing Stage'. "
"This is the only stage where Planeswalkers can use any cards without any restrictions. At the same time, they can also draw three cards from their deck and put them into their hand. "
"Wait," Brando was stunned, "What does this mean?"
"This is the rule of Planeswalkers. At the beginning of each day, a Planeswalker can only use a fixed number of cards in their hand. They may be able to draw more cards than this limit, but during the 'Reset Stage' of the day, they must discard these cards that exceed this limit. And we call this fixed number of Cards of Fate the hand. "
"On the other hand, the stronger a Planeswalker is, the more cards he can control. For example, as a new Planeswalker, you can only control five cards in your hand. "
"Do I have to choose the cards in my hand?" Brando asked.
"No, the cards in your hand will be drawn by you from the designated deck. Like me, my card will be All in One with the power of the six elements, so the rule divides my deck into six equal parts, so I have six decks. "Tuman replied.
Brando frowned, "But if that's the case, the uncertainty increases a lot. Then, if I only control a few powerful cards and discard the useless ones, wouldn't I be able to freely maintain the strength of my cards at the same level? "
"In theory, yes, but this is not the ultimate goal of a Planeswalker." Tuman shook his head.
"Ultimate goal?"
"You know that after the level three power system, some people can activate their Elemental Powers and become extremely powerful. But you may not know, but after activating your Elemental Powers, the next stage of power is the perfect body. From Iron to Gold, the final step is to pursue the existence of power that only exists in legends. "
"You know, fire is an element. Its highest level is the fire element, because the fire element is the origin of all flames in this world. But in fact, there has always been a rumor that above the fire element, there is an even higher level element, which we call 'matter'. "
"Like 'matter', 'time', 'space', and even 'logic', 'power' itself, these elements that represent the deepest meaning of the world, we call them the power of existence."
Brando stared at Tuman, speechless for a moment. Of course, he knew about the perfect body, because he had already experienced this stage in the past game – level 130, Silver Body. He had also heard of the Power of Existence, but it was rumored that after players reached level 160 and completed the Golden Body, their EXP would stop increasing. No one knew which final hurdle to break through to reach the Power of Existence, which was only one step away.
However, none of them had expected that such a path actually existed.
"You mean," he could not help but ask, "Planeswalkers can finally reach the power of existence?"
Tuman nodded and pointed at the cards, "When you perfect your 'world', when this' rule 'can be self-consistent, the door to the power of existence will open. Of course, before that, you have a long way to go, "Tuman seemed to have noticed Brando's interest and continued," Start by building your most basic deck. "
"What do I have to do?" Brando asked subconsciously.
"Actually, from the moment you came into contact with the first Card of Fate, you had already revealed your own deck. But I'm a little curious, your deck is different from any I've seen before. It seems to represent a huge class system through the deck. I don't understand why you're interested in the class system, and this idea of 'all-class domination' – what does that mean? "Tuman thought for a moment and asked, puzzled.
When Brando heard this, he could not help but sweat profusely. When he first came into contact with the Cards of Fate, he was still Sophie's soul. As a professional player, of course, he instinctively wanted to take up a powerful class. Most players had the dream of taking up all classes, but he did not expect the Cards of Fate to capture that dream.
Only now did he realize what the opening of the Knight's Path meant …
Damn! Brando screamed in his heart. If the cards were a manifestation of the world, could it really be all-class domination this time?
(PS: I've just returned from tomb sweeping, so I won't be home for the next two days. I'll start updating tomorrow and make up for the words I missed last week. This chapter is about 7000 words, so I won't split it into chapters to avoid inconvenience.
Sigh, I'll just complain. Back in my hometown, other people eat meat and drink wine, but I'll just sit at the table and watch a table full of vegetables and porridge. Damn, this year was so miserable, I want to die when I hear about food. Because I didn't have much time, I wrote this chapter yesterday and today. I'm not used to using a notebook, and I don't have any information on hand, so I don't know if there's any problem.)
