Spire Game: My cards are all forbidden divine skills

After a while, Chen Mo finally got up again.

He roughly estimated the time; the red light on his body only lasted for about a minute before disappearing completely.

In other words, the disabling effect lasts for about one minute.

Get up and retrieve the shield first, then examine the tree crocodile's corpse.

At a glance, you can see the tree crocodile's carcass turning into soil at a visible speed.

In just over a minute, most of its body had disappeared.

Chen Mo quickly cut off a thumb-sized piece of meat from the remaining part; he wanted to test whether the monster meat here was edible.

After taking a small bite, Chen Mo felt as if he had eaten a mouthful of dirt.

Ugh, ugh, ugh, it's hard to swallow.

Moreover, my mouth immediately went numb, as if it were poisonous.

Looks like I'll have to stick to the ones I bought from the mall.

Chen Mo was a little disappointed.

Looking further down, the dead crocodile dropped gold coins.

A full ten gold coins!

It seems like a lot, but in reality, judging by the danger level of the crocodile, these ten gold coins are really not worth it. He would rather farm a few more fungal snails.

Ok?

There are also cards!

Chen Mo suddenly discovered that in addition to the gold coins, he had also gotten a white card.

That's totally worth it!

With the cards included, killing this giant crocodile would be quite a good option.

I quickly picked it up. It was still a card that glowed white. The front of the card had a picture of a blood-red sword aura, and the back had the card description.

Blood Slash: Consumes 10 points of your own health to release a sword aura with an attack range of 10 meters, dealing 14 damage.

Chen Mo's face lit up slightly; this looked like a powerful damage-dealing card.

If he had had this card earlier, he wouldn't have had so much trouble fighting the giant crocodile. There would have been no need to risk taking the crocodile's charge attack; a single Blood Slash would have been enough to finish it off.

The only problem is that it requires "selling blood," which is a bit troublesome. In other words, using this card when you're low on health is like gambling with your life; it's either you or me.

Chen Mo opened the panel and checked his condition.

Blood volume: 42

Chen Mo frowned slightly; he hadn't expected his health to drop so quickly. He'd only lost a little over forty health points fighting the Tree Crocodile. He hadn't been hit by the Tree Crocodile's Whirlwind attack.

No, we should also include those who fight fungal snails and those who get pricked by thorns.

Chen Mo looked at the thorns on the high wall and realized that climbing up was indeed a pipe dream.

I'm afraid that before I even reach the top, my health will be depleted and I'll die.

Ability points: 3

Since it recovers one point per hour, Chen Mo calculated the time it took him to get here, plus the time spent fighting the fungal snails and eating, and it was roughly like that. Three points meant he could use Blood Slash three times, which would be a full thirty points of damage.

If you encounter a tree crocodile again, first use your blood to cripple it, and the rest will be easier.

Everything else remained unchanged. Cards could be placed in the backpack, but they would take up one backpack slot, and could be used simply by thinking of them. However, this made his already limited backpack slots seem even more cramped. Chen Mo felt that he couldn't even stock up on more food; if the large radish wasn't finished, it would probably take up another backpack slot as well.

Fortunately, gold coins don't take up a whole backpack slot each; they can be stacked together and only take up one slot. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hoard any gold coins.

His backpack was now stuffed with cards, gold coins, and notes.

If you include the sword and shield cards he already has, then he's really gone by half. I wonder if there's a way to increase inventory slots in the tower; if so, he desperately needs it.

Instead of blindly continuing forward, Chen Mo decided to recover some health first.

This is just the beginning, and we've already encountered such a formidable opponent. Who knows what we'll face as we go on?

It's best not to waste time when you're low on health, especially if you have a "blood-selling" card like him, as you have very high requirements for your health.

Sitting by the pool, Chen Mo first tried drinking a small sip of water.

It was a little cloudy, but not so cloudy that it was hard to swallow. After waiting a while, there were no adverse reactions such as stomach pain. Chen Mo nodded, "The water is fine to drink, no problem."

The only problem now is that he doesn't have a container to hold the water.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Mo decided to spend two gold coins to buy a simple set of supplies to try it out.

If they could give us something like a water bottle, that would be a huge bonus.

Ideally, could you provide a truck?

An excavator would be even better!

Chen Mo's plan was good; he bet two gold coins!

Buy!

It feels like buying a lottery ticket, hoping to win the grand prize.

The next moment, something appeared in his hand.

The basic supplies arrived: a black windbreaker and black casual pants.

Chen Mo frowned deeply. Why give him "skin" at this time!

This thing is ruined; we might as well replace it with a big radish.

There wasn't a single woman or anything like that here, not even a human being.

What does he need new clothes for?

Looking disgusted, he said he couldn't get a refund even after spending two gold coins.

Sigh, a bet's a bet. I'll change my clothes; it's good to keep warm, who knows if it'll rain here.

Wait a minute, Chen Mo tugged at his white clothes, which were almost torn to shreds, and an idea came to mind.

After changing out of his white clothes, he soaked them all in the pool, used a cloth to absorb the water, and then stuffed them into his backpack.

The contents of his backpack would remain unchanged, meaning the water he absorbed with the white cloth could be preserved indefinitely; he could simply take it out, wring it out, and drink it when needed.

Chen Mo tried it several times and nodded in satisfaction at his own ingenuity.

This can be considered a "container," better than nothing.

Just live a mediocre life, what can I possibly want to die? If anyone's going to die, it'll be someone else!

With the water problem temporarily resolved, Chen Mo felt much more at ease.

He then opened the trading marketplace to see what other people were doing.

As soon as Chen Mo went to read the text, he found a chorus of wails.

"I've been poisoned, is there any way to save me? I'm dying!"

"My guide abandoned me. I asked him to take me away, but he left me here."

"Please, everyone, how do I get out of here?"

"I need food, could someone please give me some?"

"I'm rich, I'm a boss, I have billions! Whoever can take me out, I'll give them all my money. Anyone want to?"

"I'm a celebrity, my name is Mengyao, everyone knows me. Please take me out of here, I'm willing to marry him, I swear to God!"

"I have some cards on me, and I want to sell them for food. My cards are attack and defense cards. Anyone interested?"

……

Chen Mo silently closed the trading mall.

To him, these people's writings were nothing more than death wails. As for the occasional transactions, they were nothing more than someone selling the most basic cards: attack and defense.

Chen Mo thought about it for a moment and decided that he was fine with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.

Having an extra defense and attack card seems to serve no other purpose than taking up a backpack slot.

During combat, his ability points don't allow him to act recklessly.

Let's not waste the gold coins.

As for using money to exchange for beautiful women or billions, that's utter nonsense.

Putting aside whether they can even get back, the loss of one more person is absolutely unacceptable.

Just then, a timid voice came from not far away.

"Hello, may I have some water next to you?"
