As long as there is a progress bar, Fang Qingyun nodded. Otherwise, what is the difference between chasing a girlfriend? Unknown goal, no main line, no taboos... He couldn't even guess the mind of a girlfriend, let alone the mind of a world.
Fang Qingyun considered his words for a moment: "So if I open multiple meridians at the same time and complete one, my curse will be gone, or will the curse only be gone after I complete all the meridians and completely leave this world?"
[For the former, once you complete it, you will no longer be threatened by the curse. Even if you die next, you will be kicked out of that world directly after you die again.]
In that case, you'd better be greedy in the future. Just open a few more branch lines and run away when you have made enough money. After all, once you leave this world completely, the cards of this world will be out of print.
After putting away the Grimoire of Destiny, Fang Qingyun continued with his daytime schedule: going to class.
Thursday was a day of full classes that every student couldn't escape. Even if they wanted to skip classes and stay in the dormitory to play with their phones, they couldn't feel at ease. Getting up early and going to class late was a nightmare for every student. Other students might lie comfortably in the dormitory for a day, but Fang Qingyun didn't have the capital to skip classes at this moment. He needed to collect more information.
There are three classes today. Except for a break after lunch, all other classes are for classes. Today's classes are all formal classes, which talk about the basic rules of card battles.
Professor Stan was in charge of the main course. His lectures had a mysterious power, like a hypnotic spell. The audience yawned one after another. Fang Qingyun also wanted to listen carefully, but he didn't hear the key points after listening carefully for a long time. He was distracted for a minute or two, and then he started talking about the next chapter. For a moment, Fang Qingyun didn't know whether the professor had talked about it or not. Did he talk about it but he missed it? Or did he not talk about it at all?
Fang Qingyun fell into a brief period of self-doubt, and then he started to play badly. Instead of listening to him, he might as well go back and take a look for himself. What Professor Stan was talking about was all nonsense.
The person next to Fang Qingyun pushed Fang Qingyun's elbow, which made Fang Qingyun, who was always worried about his skin secret being exposed, extremely alert. The classmate hooked his fingers with Fang Qingyun and motioned Fang Qingyun to put his ear closer: "Don't listen to Professor Stan's class, it's all nonsense."
Fang Qingyun relaxed his guard. So this is what he meant. I will reveal all your underwear to you. Fang Qingyun began to complain in a random manner. The classmate soon fell into the trap and revealed a secret. This Professor Stan was actually an uneducated guy who got in through connections.
Fang Qingyun estimated that these could not be believed completely, as many students exaggerated and spread rumors, but it was probably true that this professor was incompetent, and listening to his lectures was simply torture.
Seeing Professor Stan talking so eloquently, Fang Qingyun yawned. Could this action be seen as a provocation? The professor's eyes lit up, and he lit up Fang Qingyun without any habitual problems.
Chapter 12, Classroom Incident, based on a true story
Fang Qingyun's expression was so innocent. So many people were sleeping, why did he pick me to yawn? I observed the clothes of the people sleeping around me, and almost all of them were wearing gorgeous and dangling badges.
Later, Fang Qingyun asked others what the badge represented, and the answer was that they had won the championship. Winning means winning the city-level "Olympic" audition competition in March every year, which means that they can participate in the city-level "Olympic". Whether they can get a ranking or not is not the point, at least they have obtained the qualification to participate.
Above the city, there is a national-level competition held in June every two years. After a fierce fight, ten places are released to participate in higher-level competitions, which is the final "Olympics" in September every four years, where they will compete against opponents of other races. The final winner will be favored by the God of Cards. No one knows what the favor is exactly, but it must be a good thing.
There are only two possibilities for those who have won the title. One is that they are really winners, big shots in the school, and ordinary students like Fang Qingyun should just stay away from them. The other is that they have won the title in vain, but their family is a sponsor of the school, and they can summon 500 swordsmen with a wave of their hands to chop you up and throw you into the sewer, so they are not to be messed with.
This little badge, after all, is just a three-good student badge, and its value may even be less than that of a three-good student badge.
Although Fang Qingyun did not understand the meaning of those small badges at this time, it could be seen from the brightness of his clothes that Professor Stan could not afford to offend the rich and was treating Fang Qingyun like a chicken.
He is very good at killing the chicken to scare the monkey. Fang Qingyun snorted in his heart, what a double standard guy. But on the surface, Fang Qingyun could not talk back to him. He had to serve him comfortably and act very fearful.
The menacing Professor Stan hid behind his glasses, making it impossible to see his expression behind them. The flash of the glasses reminded Fang Qingyun of the ridiculous glasses in Conan.
"Fang Qingyun, you answer this question." Professor Stan took a pointer and tapped the blackboard twice, and a few lines of words appeared on the blackboard. It looked like it was not a pointer, but a magic wand for casting spells.
"
How many cards does the person who goes first in a duel draw?
How many cards does the person who plays second draw in a duel?
What is the compensation for the person who comes second in a duel?
"
These three questions caught Fang Qingyun off guard. He had just opened multiple threads in class, thinking about how to contact the protagonist for the evening adventure and successfully pass the level with the help of the protagonist's halo, while listening to the class at the same time. However... the teacher didn't talk about this question just now, so he could only stand there and pretend to be dead when he was asked this question suddenly.
Fang Qingyun secretly glanced at the other people. Some of them raised their eyebrows and realized that something was wrong. Some began to flip through books. Some patted their chests to express their fear and then did some small movements. It was like a group of demons dancing wildly.
There are some techniques to standing and pretending to be dead, and Fang Qingyun is obviously well aware of this. He stood up confidently and made silent mouth movements, appearing to be analyzing something. He glanced to the upper left corner and blinked rapidly, making it look like he was recalling something. Fang Qingyun did this skillfully, and this action successfully made people around him laugh.
The low laugh made Professor Stan lose face, and he began to emit a low pressure as he became angry. At this time, Fang Qingyun could see the expression behind his glasses clearly, which was full of arrogance and contempt, and the contempt was about to overflow.
Professor Stan is a villain. Fang Qingyun realized that if he didn't do something, he would become the character that the professor had to mention in class every day. Considering the low-key life in the future, Fang Qingyun decisively applied the rules of Hearthstone from his previous life. There were basically no changes in other rules from Hearthstone. Now he didn't know anyway, so he might as well give it a try.
"The person who plays first draws three cards, and the person who plays second draws four cards. The person who plays second gets a 'lucky coin', which is a 0-cost magic card. The effect is to temporarily gain a point of mana. The temporarily gained mana will automatically disappear after the round ends." After observing the professor's expression, Fang Qingyun felt that he was right.
Professor Stan glared at Fang Qingyun angrily. As a man of unknown origin, he was unusually sensitive to all kinds of laughter. He waved his hand for Fang Qingyun to sit down, but he was still angry inside. In the next half of the class, Fang Qingyun was called up to answer countless questions, all of which were basic, and this teacher particularly liked to catch some inexplicable details.
For example, is the only way to win to destroy the opponent's hero's health?
It sounds right at first glance, but there are actually many other ways to win, such as special mechanism wins, like completing a set of Dark Master in Yu-Gi-Oh, or the Mecha C'Thun Cataclysm in Hearthstone. The effects of some minions are to directly destroy the opponent's hero or win the game, but the premise is more difficult to achieve.
Can minions attack once per turn?
It sounds correct at first glance, but in fact, minions without Charge and Rush cannot attack in the round they are summoned, while minions with Windfury can attack twice per round starting from the second round they are summoned.
Does a magic card take effect immediately after it is played?
It sounds correct at first glance, but in fact, secret cards, also known as trap cards, are also considered a type of magic card. After they are played, only a "?" will appear above the hero's head. They will only take effect when the opponent performs an action that meets the conditions for activating the trap card.
These questions were full of traps, which made Fang Qingyun very annoyed. Fang Qingyun originally thought that whatever Professor Stan said was right, but he had a disagreement with the professor on the last question.
Fang Qingyun believed that the secret card was already effective when it was played, and the effect was just to create a triggerable trap, but Professor Stan did not think so. Obviously, there was no point in arguing with this teacher. The more you argue, the more excited he gets. It would be better to let him scold you happily so that he would not continue to complain.
The chair under his butt didn't have time to warm up. Fang Qingyun, who had been standing for almost the entire class, was disgusted with this professor. Wasn't this purely targeting him? He must be mentally ill. It's not me who laughed at you. You can't afford to offend them, so you're going to offend me?
Fortunately, Professor Stan did not ask Fang Qingyun to stay after class. Fang Qingyun glanced at him, but did not say anything out of consideration for his future life, lest he give him an excuse to make a fuss. The classmates next to him looked at Fang Qingyun with sympathy: "This professor is like this, he has no ability, but he is always looking for trouble."
Fang Qingyun agreed with this deeply, but he didn't say anything. He was afraid that after he said it, this classmate would report Professor Stan. It would be bad if he was caught with evidence. Even though he was spitting now, he might end up like a lackey in front of Professor Stan.
When I didn't provoke you, you used me as an example to warn others. When I got up, I didn't do anything to you. I just didn't know what you didn't say. Now that I have answered, you still point fingers at me. It's okay to provoke me once, but isn't it a bit too much to provoke me for the whole class?
Fang Qingyun decided to modify the notes of this professor. It is likely that Professor Stan was bought in, or there is someone behind him supporting him.
People like him get angry because someone is not laughing at his own laughter, which shows that he is sensitive and easily angered, which means he is guilty. Only when he is guilty will he jump out impatiently to defend his dignity, like a powder keg that explodes at the touch of a button.
He spent the entire second half of the class venting his anger and didn't say anything that should have been said. This made Fang Qingyun think back to the first half of the class and he was sure that the old man had also been talking nonsense in the first half and was just trying to kill time.
Just like the old joke, what should I do if I have nothing to talk about with my girlfriend? It's simple, just cry in the morning and comfort her for the whole day.
This teacher should be the same, deliberately picking on a troublemaker and then venting his anger for the whole class with a clear conscience.
After finishing the morning class, Fang Qingyun no longer thought about the troubles of the teacher. He was so hungry that he just wanted to get something delicious quickly, but he didn't have any expectations for the food in this magical world.
But he himself can't cook, and if he really had to live alone at home for a month, he could survive on fast food such as bread and instant noodles with his extremely strong stomach.
This time he guessed wrong.
The lunch in the cafeteria was truly an eye-opener. It was different if you paid for it. The slightly hard black bread and relatively soft corn pie filled Fang Qingyun up. Fang Qingyun was a meat lover, so he took out a piece of grilled steak. The steak was sizzling with oil, and Fang Qingyun ate it heartily, picking his teeth with his tongue as he prepared for the afternoon class.
The afternoon class was a practical class. The substitute teacher took everyone to the blue topaz table to see what the real thing was.
The kyanite table is the table used for card duels. From small two-person duels to the large "Olympics", they are all played on the kyanite table. The advantage of the kyanite table is that it can display the situation in real time relatively intuitively, and can also show special effects to increase the viewing experience of the game.
The table can display the real-time health of each follower and hero, and at the same time, it has different demonstration methods based on the different effects of each follower. Even the most advanced blue crystal table can project the characters on the card illustrations, giving it a high-tech feel.
The Kyanite Table is powered by magic and projects minions through magic. Duelists who have also mastered magic can carry a small Kyanite Table with them, that is, a Kyanite plate or card box as a medium to summon minions belonging to their own cards. The stronger the summoned minion, the higher the magic reserve required of the duelist.
Thanks to the good medium function of cards, the magic power required to use card summons is only one-tenth of that required for direct casting. This is one of the reasons why cards are popular, namely higher magic power utilization efficiency.
At the same time, duelists who only know how to play cards are called academics, and duelists who have the ability to use cards, including but not limited to summoning minions, using spells, and materializing weapons, are called practitioners.
What is gratifying is that there is no contradiction between the academics and the practitioners, because when the academics actually look for the practitioners to work on their films, they are often crushed by the latter, so any possible contradiction disappears.
After hearing this, Fang Qingyun became excited. Can you summon followers from cards? Can you explain it in more detail? He ignored the eager look of the students next to him and raised his hand to ask a question.
The person in charge of this class was a young, elegant man who was also a duelist. According to rumors, he had been practicing magic relatively hard and had already reached the fifth level, which was outstanding compared to his colleagues who were only at the fourth level on average.
Most professors are at least at level ten. According to gossip, that old bastard Professor Stan seems to be only at level eight. This is one of the reasons why he is always questioned.
The elegant Mr. Schmeisser pushed up his glasses and gave everyone a brief overview of the levels of the duelists:
The magic power of a first-level duelist is one unit.
The magic power of a second-level duelist is eight units.
By analogy, a duelist of a certain level can possess magic power equal to the cube of that level.
A one-cost minion requires one unit of mana to manifest.
A 2-cost minion requires 4 units of mana to manifest.
The manifestation of a minion of a few mana costs mana times the square of its cost.
Therefore, the more magic power is cultivated, the greater the gap between levels. During the assessment, there are often two tests, one to test whether one can maintain the presence of followers of the same level, and the other to test how many first-level followers can be maintained.
Some people can summon a large number of first-level followers, but cannot summon any higher-level followers, which means they can only join the army and become a low-ranking military wizard. Similarly, some people can only summon high-level followers, and without low-level followers to help them, their lives are inconvenient in various ways. After all, the higher the level of the character, the easier it is to disobey orders.
Chapter 13: The exam is coming, don’t panic... Damn, where are my books?
"In other words, you have to handle the relationship well? It doesn't mean you can just give orders once you summon them?" Fang Qingyun asked again.
"Not exactly. When you summon a follower, it will have a certain initial favorable impression of you. As long as you don't oppress it too much or touch its bottom line too much, you can get along well with it."
The teacher clapped his hands and woke up a bunch of drowsy students: "Okay, today's class ends here. Remember to bring your deck tomorrow. We are going to have a simulated battle. Everyone should simplify their decks. We are going to practice a simulated battle with a maximum of 10 mana points and health points for the hero. Everyone only needs to bring cards. The get out of class is over, everyone can go home."
Fang Qingyun stood up. He had to hurry back to the dormitory. He had searched hastily before but couldn't find the original owner's cards. He didn't know where he put them. If the original owner didn't have his own cards, in order to avoid being exposed tomorrow, Fang Qingyun had to get 10 cards tonight. If blue quality was the minimum standard, he would need 9000 memory fragments... Even if he collected the collection, he would need 45.
Fang Qingyun returned to the room and searched around but couldn't find anything. He decided to ask for help with a headache: "Magic Book, help me see if there are any cards in this room?"
【Have】
A hand made of light blue dust reached into a secret compartment in the corner and took out two cards, one was a spell card and the other was a follower card.
The layout of spell cards and minion cards is similar, with the front side of the card and the cost in the upper left corner of the back, with the effect written below.
[Crystal Regeneration, 2-cost spell card]
【Twin Spells】
[Instantly obtain an empty mana crystal]
[After a spell with Twin is used, copy this card without Twin and put it into your hand]
It looks like a growth-oriented means of skipping mana. It quickly skips mana in the early stage to gain mana advantage as quickly as possible, bullying the weak with its big force, and spending 2 mana to grow one mana. It also comes with twins, which means it can be used twice... It's very powerful, and it would have been a must-have card in the previous life.
In the previous life of Hearthstone, Druid had a card called Natural Growth, the effect of which was to spend 3 mana to grow one mana. This card was irreplaceable in some Druid decks, and Fang Qingyun's card was obviously better. Overall, it was a very useful card.
But... it won't be of any use for tomorrow's test. After all, there are only 20 health points, and there are only 10 cards in the deck. If it is the second player's turn, the four cards at the beginning plus the card drawn during your turn is equivalent to the person playing second having 5 cards at the beginning. In this case, there is no need to draw special cards or cards that skip the cost. As long as you play monsters according to the cost, you will have good suppression power.
The same goes for the cost. Five turns pass in a flash, and reaching five mana only takes a few turns, and it can be achieved after a few rounds of attack and defense, but spending a turn of growth in the early stage is tantamount to seeking death.
The battle with a five-point cost limit is a bloody close combat from the beginning, just like the street fighting you suddenly encounter in modern warfare. When he is close to you, don't you raise your gun and shoot him, but make a phone call to your superiors to express that you need air fire support?
What are you standing there for? Throw a grenade at him, then use some light or heavy firepower to kill him.
This is the difference between five mana and ten mana. One is a brutal street fight, and the other is a planned offensive and defensive battle. The latter can still be planned in the long run, while the former only has the possibility of victory of the brave in a narrow road.
Before Fang Qingyun crossed over, he always played 10-cost cards. Suddenly, after comparing them, he felt that 5 mana points were not enough, and it was difficult to show any skills. What if he was unlucky and his hand was full of high-cost cards, which led to a hand jam? That would be a nightmare, not to mention that there were only 10 cards in the deck. By the sixth round, the cards would have been drawn out, and he would have to suffer fatigue damage. The tolerance rate was extremely low.
Then comes another card, this one a minion:
【Almighty Maid (Purple Quality), 4-2-2】
[Minion Card - Warrior - Maid]
【ridicule】
[Battlecry: Gain 2 armor points; cause 2 damage]
[Combo: Equip an additional 2/2 weapon]
[Second combo: draw two extra cards]
[When you play a card before playing a combo card in the same round, you can trigger the combo effect]
[When you play two cards before playing a double combo card in the same round, you can trigger the double combo effect]
Hmm? Are there such fancy cards in this world? Regardless of whether it is powerful or not, this card at least has several lines of text on the effect, which makes it look not simple.
Fang Qingyun was stunned for a moment. When he was listening to the teacher's lecture before, he thought that this world was basically an early blank-slate, very primitive version, and one suffix was enough.
This made Fang Qingyun, who had originally planned to rely on blue-quality cards to fight everything, feel depressed, but it also made him mentally prepared. If the blue card didn't work, he would switch to a purple card. If the purple card didn't work, he would switch to an orange card. He would eventually be able to reach the top of this world.
The scroll will be done, at most he can use more memory fragments to make high-level cards. Fang Qingyun thinks he is not a professional player, all he can do is to crush the logistics and make all his cards the strongest cards, and the rest is to play monsters according to the cost.
Just like what a professional player said: Once you have learned my operation, all that’s left is to just pass through.
This card is flashy but also has some strength, probably enough to get a passing score, but it's only limited to 10 mana. It's a bit of a stretch facing the 5-mana cap, as the effect requires a combo to activate, a total of 5 mana. To trigger a second combo you have to play two other cards before playing this card. This [Almighty Maid] itself costs 4 mana, so the remaining 1 mana requires two cards, and at least one 0-mana card is needed. If you don't draw a 0-mana card, you won't be able to trigger the second combo.
Moreover, the double combo drawing that benefits this card the most has little effect on the five-cost battlefield. Drawing cards too early will instead cause the deck to be emptied prematurely, and then suffer increasing fatigue damage each round, that is, 1 point of damage in the first round, 2 points of damage in the second round, 3 points of damage in the third round, and so on.
Assuming Fang Qingyun is the second player, he has four cards at the beginning, and he draws another card in the first turn, so there are only five cards left in the deck. If he uses that card, it means that his deck will be empty by the fourth turn, and he will be hurt next.
Another point is that if this card only considers a combo effect, Fang Qingyun needs a one-cost card to cooperate. He spends five mana to exchange for a 2-2 with taunt and a one-cost minion, equips himself with a 2-2 weapon, causes 2 damage to a target, and then enables his hero to gain 2 points of armor that can be used as health... Is this cost-effective?
A fancy set of skills might not be as good as just hitting a big monster directly. The two minions will die after suffering low group damage, and they won't even be able to protect their faces.
Moreover, when you are tired, you will not replenish any cards and will simply take damage. When there is no need to drain the deck so early and the five-cost deck only has ten cards in total, drawing cards will accelerate the process of your own death.
This card can be added to the construction if the mana cap is 10, but from the perspective of a 5-mana cap, its shortcomings are too serious, with too high a cost, no great demand for card draws, and too weak combat power.
"Well, if we calculate it based on the price of blue quality, ten cards will cost 9000 memory fragments." Fang Qingyun sighed, "It may be okay to not bring any cards, but you can't be so low-key if you want to. If you don't even have any cards, something big will definitely happen tomorrow. I just want to get an upper-middle grade, but it feels like a waste of my memory fragments to take all blank cards."
