Thinking of those cards, Xu Sili could not help but feel an itch in his heart. However, with Si Sheng staring at him, he buried his head and finished his meal first.
He had used up a lot of energy last night, and he was really hungry. The food tasted especially good.
"Brother Sheng's cooking is getting better and better."
After finishing his meal, he still had to act obedient. He smiled at Si Sheng and said, "I really want to eat this every day."
Si Sheng could not suppress his smile. He looked at the young man's sparkling purple eyes and smiled gently. "Is there a reward?"
Xu Sili leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
Si Sheng was satisfied. He tidied up the tableware and left the room. He gave the things to the guards to clean and gave them a few instructions. When he returned, he saw that the young man had changed his clothes.
He was sitting cross-legged on the sofa. In front of him were a dozen cards spread out on the coffee table. He was holding a card in his hand and looking at it carefully, as if he was thinking about something.
Si Sheng did not immediately go over. He went to the pantry to make tea and took out the refreshments he brought from Roland. Only then did he come back with a tray and sat down beside the young man.
Xu Sili moved to the side to make room for him. He then leaned his back against the young man and continued to study the cards in his hand.
"These are the cards of the card master?"
"Yes." Xu Sili nodded. "They are the cards that Kuris gave me yesterday. There are a few that are quite interesting."
"Look at this one."
Xu Sili showed it to him. There was a complicated pattern drawn on the card. The blue and white lines were like lightning flashing in the dark clouds.
Unlike the cards in the Lie Star Base, this one should have been drawn by a Card Master, not a real card.
"I think that the card master should have the ability to directly draw cards. There should be a complete knowledge system for this." Xu Sili said.
Through Insight, he could roughly understand the function of this card.
This was a special skill card. It could release ten lightning bolts at the same time. It could be used as a single attack or a group attack. The maximum damage could reach 6,000.
Just as he had guessed, Card Masters were a combat class like Elementalists.
Kuris had probably been scared witless by Si Sheng, or perhaps he really had a very calm mind. He knew that he had no chance of winning against Si Sheng, so he obediently admitted defeat.
Not only did he not use these cards, he even handed them over obediently.
Of course, the facts proved that his judgment was correct.
In this pile of cards, the one with the highest attack damage was only slightly over 10,000. When combined together, it was quite impressive, but the requirements for the card master should also be increased by several times.
Xu Sili had a strong interest in the profession of a card master. He put down the cards and called for the little robot.
"Brother, are you looking for me?"
Xiao Wu emerged from his communication device. Its voice was still soft and gentle. Just by looking at its appearance, one would never think that it was ferocious when exploding fireworks.
"Yes. Xiao Wu, help me investigate the Card Master profession, including its origin, known information about Card Masters, and so on. Help me investigate everything related to Card Masters."
"Okay brother, leave it to Xiao Wu!"
The little robot patted its chest, making clanging sounds.
Xu Sili smiled and could not help but ask, "The Lie Star Base has been turned into a card. Can you still control the base?"
Xiao Wu shook its head.
"No, I can't. I have lost contact with the clone that controls the base. I can't receive the signal of the Lie Star Base."
Xu Sili nodded. He had also turned into a card before, so he knew that after turning into a card, his whole body would be in a static state, including his metabolism.
Now in the Lie Star Base, those scholars who had nowhere to go or those who were really obsessed with research and voluntarily stayed behind were probably in a static state.
Thinking about this, maybe he should go back earlier and think of a way to move the people and equipment out of the Lie Star Base. Maybe he should just set up a secret base somewhere.
After all, Roland had a lot of land, and although the Lie Star Base was a metal ball, it could be spread out and become a flat surface.
Xu Sili thought for a while and decided to ask Wen Jishan and the others for their opinion. With such a military base, Roland's combat ability should be improved a lot.
Xiao Wu went to investigate the Card Masters, and Xu Sili continued to hold the Thunder Card and said to Si Sheng, "Brother Sheng, do you think it's possible to directly turn the spell into a card and release it when it's needed?"
This concept was similar to magic scrolls, which also existed in the legend of Eshe.
As the game developed, it might be unlocked in the future, but Xu Sili felt that magic scrolls were different from cards.
Magic scrolls required materials, but cards did not. The only restriction was that cards could only be used by Card Masters.
"Let's try." Si Sheng thought for a while, raised his hand and condensed a water ball, and then cast the card skill on the water ball.
Soon, the water ball slowly disappeared, and then a card with a water ball on it floated in his hand, replacing the original water ball.
Xu Sili could not help but take a look at the card. This was the first time he saw the process of turning a card into a card, and it was as magical as when he first saw the Elemental Skill.
He used Discernment to examine it and found that it was just an ordinary Water Ball card.
"Brother Sheng, try using it." Xu Sili handed the card back to Si Sheng.
Si Sheng nodded and took the card. He did not do anything, but the water ball card suddenly disappeared, and the original water ball appeared again.
"This is not offensive."
Xu Sili said, "Maybe it's just to store it and use it when there's a drought?"
Si Sheng looked at him and waved his hand to disperse the water ball. Then, a flame appeared on his palm. Under his control, the flame turned into a card.
Xu Sili's eyes lit up. Water had a physical body, so he did not feel anything after turning the water ball into a card. However, the flame could be seen but not touched.
At least this proved that some skills could be turned into cards.
"Brother Sheng, try throwing this card out. Remember to control the materialization of the card while you're throwing it out."
Xu Sili did not take the flame card to study it again, and instead told Si Sheng directly.
Si Sheng was very cooperative. He threw the card into a paper basket next to him, and the moment he threw it out, the flame in the card was released.
The small fireball appeared in mid-air, but it did not disappear immediately. Instead, it smashed into the paper basket.
The flame burned brightly, and thick black smoke was emitted.
Xu Sili looked at this scene and nodded lightly. "This is a good way to catch people off guard."
When Elementalists were fighting, they would definitely be sensed by their opponents when they moved the elements. Using cards to fight would be more secretive.
The biggest limitation now was whether the cards could be used by ordinary people, or whether the threshold for becoming a Card Master could be lowered.
Xu Sili did not let Si Sheng continue the experiment. After all, they were on a spaceship, and they were still sailing in space. It was better to be cautious and not be too reckless. Otherwise, if something went wrong, it would affect everyone on the spaceship.
He put the thunder card back into the card box, and picked out the cards with attack power one by one, and put them back according to their attack power.
In fact, he did not understand why Kuris put all the cards in the same box. Was it not inconvenient to use them this way?
In a battle, time was life. If they had to open the box to look for cards while fighting, how much time would that waste?
Xu Sili suddenly touched his chin.
Could it be that … Kuris still hiding cards from him? He should have some battle cards that were not hidden in the box. When he threatened him to hand over the cards, he hid those cards.
Xu Sili could not help but click his tongue. Xing Dao was indeed Xing Dao. He was quite clever.
They should be quite far away now. It was not impossible to chase after them, but there was no need to make a special trip.
I'll leave it with him first, and ask him to return it the next time we meet.
Xu Sili thought as he put the last attack card back into the box. In the end, there were only five cards of other types left.
Among these five cards, one was a skill card, and the other four were cards that were transformed from physical objects.
The only Arcane Card he had was an Exchange Card.
That's right, it was the Card Swap Spell that Kuris had used to turn him into a card and then swap him from the Underground Trading Center to his hand.
This was very interesting.
Xu Sili looked at the card carefully. He did not know if the replacement card was directly drawn, or if it was converted into a skill card.
If it could be directly drawn, then it would be a practical and awesome skill.
Xu Sili studied it for a while, put the card down, and picked up the other four cards.
Three of the cards were rare materials and valuable items. They were probably part of Kuris' personal collection. Now, it was his turn to take advantage of him.
He gave the three cards to Si Sheng and asked him to release the items inside. Then he threw them into the storage capsule in case of emergency.
As for the last card …
It was a person.
Xu Sili looked at the person "drawn" on the card. It was a girl with long red wavy hair. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old.
She was lying on a wooden bed paved with rose petals. Her hands were crossed in front of her stomach, and her eyes were closed peacefully as if she was sleeping.
Looking at this realistic card, Xu Sili did not believe that it was drawn. He was more inclined to believe that this girl was a real person who had been converted into a card.
A real person was sealed in a card. Just thinking about it made his hair stand on end.
What was the use of this card? Who was the sealed girl? Was she still conscious? If she were to be released, would it cause any bad things to happen?
Xu Sili's mind filled in all of a sudden. He was a little scared of himself, but in the end, he used the Insight Skill on the card.
[Card (Lilith · Carter)]
Level: Two Stars (Pseudo)
Description: Due to the card master's forced conversion, the card has the right to hide its skills. All skills before the card was converted into a card, but its abilities were weakened. The card's abilities can be gradually unlocked through leveling up.
She was actually the same as him, a victim who was forcibly converted into a card.
Xu Sili scratched his head.
Should he let her out?
Looking at the girl's attire, it did not look like the style of the future era, but it did have a sense of age. Could it be an antique from many years ago? Then, was she still alive?
Just as Xu Sili was in a dilemma, the girl lying in the sea of flowers on the card slowly opened her eyes.
The girl with blue hair and blue eyes had a delicate and elegant appearance. She looked gentle and soft, and did not look aggressive.
Xu Sili felt a chill run down his spine.
The feeling of looking at the character on the card was really a little scary. How did Kuris and Angelia manage to be so calm?
Xu Sili pursed his lips, trying to suppress the urge to turn the card over. He held Si Sheng's hand, as if he could draw strength from him.
Then, he looked at the girl and asked, "Are you Lilith · Carter?"
The girl's eyes changed a little, but the card was too small, so the change was not obvious.
Xu Sili held Si Sheng's hand again, looked at the card, and said tentatively, "If you can hear me, blink your eyes."
Xu Sili stared at the card, but the girl did not respond immediately. Just when he thought that it might be his illusion, the girl gently blinked her eyes.
"… …"
Xu Sili looked at Si Sheng, "Brother Sheng, did you see it?"
"Yes." Si Sheng also stared at the card, his eyes filled with vigilance.
Characters who were turned into cards could not speak, and Xu Sili could not understand what this girl called Lilith wanted to say with her eyes.
"I'll ask you a few more questions. If I'm right, nod your head. If I'm wrong, shake your head. Can you do that?"
The girl nodded her head slightly.
Xu Sili slowly exhaled, then asked, "Were you turned into a card by Kuris?"
If that was the case, it should not have been long ago, and with Kuris's strength, a person who could be turned into a card by him should not be too strong.
However, the girl shook her head, and at the same time, there was a hint of confusion in her eyes, as if she did not know Kuris.
So, Kuris got this card from somewhere else?
"Then, do you know about the profession of card master?"
Xu Sili asked again.
This time, the girl gently nodded.
"So, you have been sealed in a card for many years?"
The girl hesitantly nodded.
"Ten years?"
The girl nodded, then shook her head, blinking her eyes, looking very strange.
Xu Sili pondered for a moment, then said, "You don't know?"
The girl gave him a definite answer.
Being sealed in a card, it was understandable that she could not feel the passage of time in the outside world.
"Do you want to come out of the card?" Xu Sili asked.
The answer to this question should be obvious, but the girl nodded and shook her head, making Xu Sili a little confused.
So, does she want to come out or not?
"You want to come out, but you can't? Or something bad will happen if you come out? "
The girl nodded.
"Is it some kind of curse?" Xu Sili asked nervously.
The girl shook her head in denial, and looked at Xu Sili with a slight change in her eyes, as if she was wondering why he would think so.
Xu Sili was a little embarrassed by her look, gently coughed, and asked, "Then, what is your ability?"
A character who was forcibly turned into a card could hide their ability, and could also reveal their ability.
If this girl named Lilith could reveal her card ability, he could reluctantly give her some trust, and if there was a chance in the future, he could think of a way to save her from the card.
The girl looked at Xu Sili, then looked at Si Sheng, and her eyes flashed with some hesitation.
Xu Sili did not urge her, it was normal for her not to trust him, this kind of thing was a big gamble.
