"Not yet... By the way, senior, do you know there is a Zerg rift near the Imperial Capital?"
Lin Yu wanted to refuse, but he remembered that he was not familiar with the place, so he might as well ask Lin Xu directly.
Exploring the cracks for the first time, maybe Lin Xu can give him some advice.
Lin Xu, who heard the inquiry, showed a clear look and patted Lin Yu on the shoulder, "I understand you. Many freshmen come to report and want to enter the rift, follow me."
Lin Yu curiously followed Lin Xu to a machine in the hall of the Card Players Association.
"If you are looking for second-hand cards, come to the Kadi Card Exchange. Here are the prices of the cards you are most concerned about. The consultation phone number is 13..."
"Are you still worried about not having enough Kawu materials? Then contact us..."
"Join the card battle live broadcast platform, earning over 100 million a year is no longer a dream, prove your strength!"
Trading advertisements for various card companies and disaster beast companies were played in a loop on the screen.
There are twelve of these machines placed in every corner of the hall, and they are all about half a person tall.
And there are these machines on other floors as well.
"Do you know the function of these machines?" Lin Xu showed a mysterious smile and let it slip.
"Aren't these for advertising?"
Lin Yu was shocked. On the first day he came to the Card Players Association, he saw these machines.
There were advertisements playing on it in turn, which made him think that they were specifically for advertisements.
Now that I hear it, it seems that it has another purpose.
"This is a card master self-service terminal."
Lin Xu said, inserting his ID card into a hidden card slot on the side of the machine.
The advertisement disappeared from the screen and was replaced by a line of text, Dear C-level card master, the following is an optional service.
Lin Yu stepped forward to take a look. There were many options below.
【Fift Map】
[Card market price inquiry]
【Disaster Beast Database】
【Disaster Beast Material Price Inquiry】
[Transaction and listing progress]
…
There are all kinds of functions, about ten kinds of functions.
"This thing is much easier to use than the one-stop card on the mobile phone, but the one-stop card is constantly being updated, and future functions will also appear on the mobile phone."
Lin Xu clicked on his personal information, showed it to Lin Yu, and said: "There will be a new student handbook for new students, which will contain precautions, the use of these machines, and an introduction to campus functions..."
Lin Yu smiled bitterly. He came too early and had never seen such a thing as a freshman handbook.
He looked at Lin Xu's personal page on the screen.
Above is Lin Xu’s ID photo.
On the right is your name, ID number, and certified card master level.
At the bottom is the deck type. This column says Summoning type [Mechanical Deck] and Melee type [Shield and Sword Combination].
"Mechanical decks have become very popular recently, so I spent a little money to build a set."
Mentioning the mechanical deck, Lin Xu raised his head slightly, feeling quite proud, "I feel that it goes well with the mechanical deck, and I plan to completely follow the mechanical style in the future."
"What does this [Shield-Sword Combination] mean?"
Lin Yu asked in confusion, can the mechanical deck in the front be understood, but can the shield and sword combination in the back be considered a genre?
"Of course this machine won't reveal all the card master's information."
Lin Xu explained: “There are also many types of mechanical decks, including the turret style, the robot style, the mecha style with outstanding personal abilities, and the armed style.
The machine will only roughly state that the melee system is abbreviated by weapons, such as double swords, single swords, large swords, shield swords, and spears.
It also doesn’t explain whether it’s an enchantment type, a combat skill type, or an armor or battle armor type.”
After finishing speaking, Lin Xu paused for a moment, and then continued: "There are many different schools. You will be taught these in the first lesson of the university, so I won't go into details. If you want to find a Zerg rift, I will demonstrate it to you.
"
After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at the rift map.
An overhead view of the Imperial City appeared on the screen for an instant, and then began to shrink, surrounded by dense light spots of various colors.
"You can choose these points of light, like this."
Lin Xu pointed at a light spot, and the light spot instantly zoomed in, with information about the crack listed on one side.
[Small Disaster Beast Rift]
[Type of Disaster Beast: Abnormal Disaster Beast]
[Attribute: complex, non-single attribute]
[Threat level: Normal (for reference only)]
[Disaster Beast Comprehensive Star Rating: Three Stars]
[Current status: Can enter]
"This threat level is evaluated based on your deck and certified card master level, and is divided into normal, dangerous, extremely dangerous, and entry is prohibited."
After Lin Xu finished speaking, he felt something was wrong, "But you can't just read this. This is just general information, so you should be cautious. You see, it's written on it for reference only."
"Well, I know this."
Lin Yu nodded, no one could predict the changes in the crack.
Maybe today it was a two-star disaster beast, and tomorrow it swallowed a bunch of disaster beasts and mutated into a three-star beast.
You won't go wrong by being cautious, but you may lose your life if you are careless.
"Some cracks are unstable and will close at any time, and the status will show that they cannot enter."
Lin Xu then explained, "Like the crack in the example, you can enter it. You click on this."
Lin Yu watched Lin Xu's operation. When he clicked to enter, a new column popped up on the right side of the screen.
Above are the times for each convoy to go to this place.
[Lutong Second Fleet], departing at 16:50, arriving 30 minutes later...
[Opening up the second team of the third team], starting at 15:10 and arriving there 25 minutes later...
[Anning Racing Team, a subsidiary of Zongheng Racing Team], departs at 15:30 and arrives 25 minutes later...
"The three major fleets of Lutong, Zongheng, and Kaifeng, including their subordinate teams, are the main means of transportation for card masters to travel daily."
Lin Xu closed this column and said, "You can just click on the information just now, book a ticket, and just go to the station when the time comes."
"That's really convenient."
Lin Yu nodded, looked at the densely packed punctuation points on the map, and asked doubtfully: "Won't the association close these cracks?"
"That's not true. What the association closes is a two-way rift, which allows disaster beasts to come out."
After hearing this, Lin Xu laughed and said: "For small ones, use enchantment cards, and for large ones, use space locks. Cracks like these that the disaster beasts cannot come out of do not need to be closed, but can become a channel for card masters to obtain cards."
"I see."
This statement is in line with Lin Yu's inner speculation.
“This map took a lot of hard work from card masters.”
Lin Xu sighed with emotion: "It would be great if we could count the cracks in every city in the Dragon Kingdom."
As the largest city in area, the Imperial Capital has a large population and is exposed to more fissures.
In some places in the wasteland, there are cracks that may not have been discovered yet.
If you want complete statistics, you can only rely on card masters to explore unknown cracks and make summary reports.
Satellites in the sky can only ensure network and communications, but do not have the ability to detect cracks on the earth's surface.
"At the Federal Research Institute, scientists from various countries are developing brand-new satellites. When the global map lights up, there is no need to be afraid."
Mentioning the map, Lin Xu thought of it and said casually: "The era of mankind will only get better and better in the future."
