Lu Ming got up to open his shop as usual, but he heard from a customer that a shop on the street not far away was robbed last night and suffered heavy losses.
This gave Lu Ming a strange sense of dislocation - something happened here?
This is the city center!
"Aren't those guys from law enforcement here?"
Lu Ming frowned.
"Fortunately, he's not here."
A guest sighed, "I heard that the man was very powerful. He smashed the security door with just a wave of his hand. With this kind of strength, even if the law enforcement officers arrived, they would only kill him."
"Whatever?!"
Lu Ming looked at the security door at home.
This kind of security door installed uniformly in the market is very stable, and it is impossible for ordinary practitioners to break it, but it was smashed casually. How strong is that guy?
If that guy came to my store yesterday...
To know.
He stayed in the shop!
Lu Ming's body felt a little cold.
True.
This is an urban area. No matter how powerful they are, the law enforcement agencies must give them an explanation, but by then everyone will be dead, so what's the use of an explanation?
this world……
Lu Ming was in a daze.
The booming sales of Fruit Ninja these days gave him the illusion that this world was no different from his previous life, until today.
Perhaps, this is the true face of this world?
"Boss, here's a Fruit Ninja card."
A visitor comes to your door.
"good."
Lu Ming came back to his senses and went to prepare the cards.
There were actually not many people in the store in the morning. While making cards, he was thinking about security issues, the robbed store, and the existence of black cats...
These finally made him start to seriously think about improving his strength.
This world is more dangerous than imagined!
Strength is king!
"Become stronger!"
This thought emerged in Lu Ming's mind.
However.
Card makers are still essentially a auxiliary profession and do not possess combat capabilities. It is difficult to provoke ordinary card makers because they always have a stack of combat cards prepared.
That's why no one wants to mess with the card maker.
but……
Casting battle cards also requires energy!
Lu Ming looked at his pitiful 60 points of energy and could only cast one battle card! Currently, the only ones that met the conditions were basic one-star cards like Fireball.
If you really encounter an enemy, you will immediately feel cold.
"This is not okay."
Lu Ming had a headache.
Card maker...
fighting……
He searched the Internet and found some images of card makers' battles. After opening them excitedly, he felt bored within a few seconds.
How does a card maker fight?
Smash!
Use the battle card to smash it!
Not enough?
Two!
Two sheets are not enough?
Three!
The most awesome video Lu Ming had ever seen was when the Samsung card maker brutally tortured the powerful Samsung elementalist across from him to death.
A variety of powerful battle cards!
What, not enough energy?
How can it be!
The card maker brought a whole stack of energy cards!
"..."
Lu Ming was silent.
Although the comments below all say that the card maker is awesome and the card maker is powerful, after reading it, he seems to feel that this... seems... has nothing to do with the card maker, right?
Is this just because of the money?
Such a trench!
No matter how awesome you are, does it have anything to do with your profession?
No matter what profession you are in, you can use battle cards to smash them!
Lu Ming was unable to complain. He had always felt that a creature like Hao should be given a separate profession.
but.
Even if it is a trench, one's own cultivation level must be sufficient.
If your energy cultivation level cannot even meet the minimum energy requirement of the card, it will not be activated at all! No matter how many cards you prepare, what is the use of more energy cards?
so.
Regardless of whether it is a trap or not, one's own cultivation is fundamental.
"I only have 60 energy points."
"Too weak."
Lu Ming analyzed it very carefully.
According to his statistics on one-star abilities, those with energy requirements between 50 and 60 points are considered the lowest level abilities. Those with energy requirements between 60 and 100 points are considered stronger abilities. Those with energy requirements above 100 points are already one-star abilities.
The most powerful existence among abilities.
If he wants to use a powerful one-star card, he must ensure at least 100 energy points!
Only in this way can those cards be activated. Even if you run out of energy, it doesn't matter if you use energy cards to replenish it.
Meeting the minimum requirements is the most important thing.
Therefore, Lu Ming's goal is very clear, first increase his energy level to 100 points.
"100 points..."
Lu Ming groaned.
According to Xiao Lu Ming's memory, he spent a year building the original card model and became a card maker. At that time, the original card energy only had 18 points.
Then it took another year to increase it to 48 points.
Shockingly low.
God knows.
Breaking through to a two-star card maker requires a full 1,000 points of energy!
"Card maker training really requires a lot of resources."
"Little Lu Ming's original cultivation method was to make energy cards and wait for natural recovery. With his little money, he didn't even dare to use energy stones."
"The speed of improvement is naturally slow."
"And I worked like crazy during those days, and my energy kept flowing. I increased my energy by 12 points in ten days! So, if I want to increase my energy..."
"I need money."
"No, to be more precise, it's a lot of resources."
Lu Ming thought silently.
He doesn't have much money left now. The proceeds from the Fruit Ninja activities have repaid the loan, and what's left can only be used to operate the store.
Get another card?
Not really.
After all, the original little Lu Ming was still at the bottom of the card-making industry, and his understanding of card-making was still at the stage of burning CDs. He had no idea whether the thousands of ideas in Lu Ming's mind could be realized.
certainly.
the most important is--
Except for Fruit Ninja, all other cards require a lot of energy!
"A vicious cycle."
Lu Ming was filled with emotions.
Is it really the only way to slowly improve?
maybe.
Lu Ming's mind moved slightly, and he suddenly thought of something.
He opened Xiao Lu Ming's mobile phone and searched downwards, and soon found a message from the college - "Notice of Internship Activities of the College and Joint Crystal Factory".
Yes.
This is an internship activity.
This is an event jointly organized by Lu Ming's vocational college and a certain factory.
Duration: seven days.
According to the content display, this activity is to train students' practical ability and awareness of hardship, so that students can understand the work environment in advance, which will be of great benefit to future career planning.
but……
Essentially.
They just trick all students into doing free hard work.
Xiao Lu Ming participated last year. The once-a-year internship activity was said to be very precious, so he went there very excitedly. Later he found out that he was actually a coolie!
They want to find energy stones in the ruins mines and hand them over to the factory!
Because all students are practitioners, whether they are combat professions or auxiliary professions, they can use their own energy to perceive those stones.
What’s even more deceiving is——
Under normal circumstances, ordinary employees in the factory will receive performance bonuses when they turn in energy stones. The more they submit, the greater the bonus. This is also to prevent employees from hiding it secretly.
As for internship students, the college will considerately exchange them for credits.
Please use it!
Therefore, basically only freshmen who have just entered school will go to this kind of cheating activity! Sophomore students will not even notice this notice!
"practice……"
Lu Ming became interested.
He looked at the history of the college.
In fact, this kind of activity did not exist originally.
However, because educational institutions require that all schools must cultivate students' practical abilities, all colleges are strongly required to hold free off-campus activities at least once a year.
This was originally a good thing.
but……
you know.
There are policies and measures to counter.
The benefits that are supposed to be provided to students have become like this without realizing it.
And because Lu Ming's college belongs to the lowest level of Pheasant Vocational College, no one is in charge of it. Over the past few years, free internships have become a college tradition.
"this activity……"
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes.
He doesn't care if the internship is a scam.
What he cares about is the content of the internship activity - mining! Go to the energy cave and dig out the energy stones hidden in the stones!
Does this mean...
Can he practice directly there?
certainly.
The energy ore in this ruin mine is different from the pure energy stones sold on the market. The purity is very low and the absorption speed is very slow.
A huge piece of energy ore may only contain a few hundred points of energy.
Moreover, because the distribution density of this energy is extremely uneven, fluctuating high and low, if it is absorbed directly, the energy may be interrupted at any time, which is very cheating!
What is it like to experience a sudden interruption of energy when the skill is released halfway?
Many people in the hospital will provide the best answers.
Therefore, this kind of energy ore is not suitable for reserve use at all.
Under normal circumstances.
These energy ores can only be put on the market for sale after being processed and refined in factories to remove impurities and generate pure energy stones.
But what is his profession, Lu Ming?
Card maker!
Impurities?
Interrupt?
He doesn't care at all!
When drawing cards, you only need to ensure that every texture is complete!
If he is unlucky and the energy is interrupted when a certain pattern is being drawn, he can use his own energy to temporarily replenish it!
No problem at all!
Not high in purity?
It doesn't matter.
He can refine it himself!
Artificially refined!
Convert these energy stones into energy cards!
Then use these energy cards.
Therefore, he only needs to prepare a large number of blank cards to have endless resources within these seven days!
