Exclusive sister card, unlimited evolution

Reaching out his hand to turn her back into a card, Lu Yan raised his hand and stuffed the [Fifth National Set of Cultivation Techniques] into her soul. Her consciousness suddenly became much more alert, and the strength of her soul was significantly improved.

He tried to put [Servant Zero] in the space that could only hold one card, and the training technique took effect. After possessing it, Lamia could still put it into the soul.

There was no rush to upgrade her. Lu Yan sat cross-legged at the head of the bed, ready to try the cultivation method first.

With his five hearts facing the sky, he adjusted his breathing and calmed his mind. As soon as he calmed down, he immediately felt the surrounding energy converging towards him.

Three whirlpools formed between the eyebrows, heart, and below the lower abdomen respectively. The mixed energy was transformed into soul energy and flowed into Lu Yan's body. A trace of coolness rushed into his heart, bringing him inexplicable comfort.

About an hour later, Lu Yan felt full and no longer absorbed any energy from the outside world.

This meant that Lu Yan's training for the day had come to an end. He exited the training state, summoned his soul card, opened his eyes slightly, and his pupils emitted the light of activating [Divine Craftsmanship].

Sure enough!

Generally speaking, a card master's level breakthrough can only be achieved by feeling, but the miraculous Lu Yan can see the progress of his own practice.

The appearance of cultivation progress can make him more motivated to practice, know when he will break through, and then make preparations early.

"Okay, now comes the most important step."

Taking out the [Mecha Servant No. 0] again, Lu Yan stroked the damaged mechanical girl on the card, picked up three material cards, placed them on top of Mecha Servant No. 0 and squeezed them tightly.

As his mind moved slightly, the three cards shattered at the same time, turning into light spots of different colors that fell down and were attracted into the [Mecha Servant No. 0].

A dazzling light appeared on the card, completely covering the original card surface. Under the light, Lu Yan could clearly feel that Servant No. 0 was undergoing some kind of transformation.

About ten seconds later, the light slowly spread from bottom to top, and Lamia, who had undergone a huge change, appeared on the card.

The worn, knee-length maid skirt she was wearing was patched up, and lace was deliberately used on the patched parts, which looked a bit messy but inexplicably beautiful.

The almost scrapped bionic skin was replaced with a new one. The mechanical eyes and internal mechanical structure were no longer exposed on the surface. The new skin was white and tender, the eyes were shining, with only red light flashing in the pupils, and the golden hair was smoother and more fluffy.

On the card, she lifted her long skirt and bowed slightly. There were leg rings on her thighs under the skirt, and a pistol and a submachine gun were hung on the leg rings, revealing her dangerous side.

Her appearance has improved greatly compared to before, and the only shortcoming is probably the expression on her face.

Compared to her previous indifferent look, the mechanical girl put on a business smile. Simply put, it was a fake smile. When you saw her for the first time, you would subconsciously feel that she was very creepy.

"I don't know how strong the battle is..."

It is beautiful, but the current situation does not allow Lu Yan to be a beauty-oriented person. As a strength-oriented person, he is more concerned about Lamia's current strength.

Chapter 4 Selling Cards

The Servitor No. 0 has undergone tremendous changes under the magical craftsmanship. In addition to the additional combat skills, the last sentence of the introduction has also changed.

With the help of the card master...

Did I help her avoid what was supposed to happen?

"Could it be that the star upgrades and evolutions of other cards were also helped along by card masters, step by step, to take different paths? That theory does exist."

Lu Yan muttered, unable to wait to summon his little maid.

The blonde maid appeared before him again, bowing slightly with a smile on her face: "Greetings, Master."

Walking around Lamia, if Lu Yan was not her owner, he might not be able to tell that she was a robot.

The disguise is really strong and can be very deceptive if you fight with other card players.

Imagine that a card player treated [Mecha Servant Zero] as a card with little combat ability.

As he directed his cards, ignoring the Servants and charging directly at them, Lamia drew her pistol or submachine gun and bared her fangs...

Well, the picture is beautiful just thinking about it.

After putting the girl away, Lu Yan patted the stack of cards in his hand, intending to sell them all, and then continue to enter the card domain to fight monsters and make money.

He still has nine days to repay the loan. According to his training speed, he will definitely be promoted to a 1-star card master the day before the repayment.

By that time, if he still couldn't raise the 100,000 yuan he owed, and the other party knew his identity as a card master and was unwilling to extend the repayment period, the worst that could happen was...

"Humph."

Lu Yan now knows what it means to "hold a sharp weapon with murderous intent". Lending is a private act and the government will not care about such trivial matters.

After changing his clothes and walking out of the house, Lu Yan could finally relax and observe his surroundings.

The scenery in the cities of the Kashi World is very beautiful. Since the land area is very vast and the resources are almost inexhaustible, people can at least ensure that they will not have to worry about food and clothing.

But in general, after satisfying their basic appetite, many people will try their best to climb up.

After all, this world is too dangerous, and people's desire for survival is not satisfied. Ordinary people may die in the expansion of the card domain or the fight between card masters.

Those who cannot become card masters will try to find ways to go to more orderly and stable areas to ensure their own lives.

Those who become card masters pursue greater strength, benefits and even a more comfortable life.

If you are not afraid of dying suddenly at any time, it is okay to be a salted fish. In the world of card masters, no one will urge you to do anything except the people closest to you.

People were coming and going on the streets, some were walking their small pets, and others were playing with cards in their hands as they rushed to their work places.

The creatures summoned by the cards do not need to eat, do not need to deal with excrement, will not get sick, and can help you block attacks when necessary. They can be said to be perfect pets for ordinary people.

Observing the people around him, Lu Yan's memory further revived. He unknowingly walked to a card shop, confirmed the legitimacy of the place, and pushed the door open to go in.

"Boss, do you accept cards?"

Lu Yan shouted a few times after entering the door, and a soft voice came from the card shop: "Woo~, stop shouting, I'm coming!"

With a little bit of morning grumpiness, the shopkeeper who had been taking a nap climbed up from the old man's chair behind the counter.

She was a petite girl with short pink hair, about 1.5 meters tall, wearing a dress and a pair of glasses on her nose.

Lu Yan knocked on the table, not treating her as the owner, but as the owner's relative or daughter: "Is your master here?"

"Huh...I'm the owner."

The corner of her eye twitched slightly as the pink-haired girl suppressed her anger. Although she was often mistaken for a minor, she was still very angry every time she encountered something like this.

She's just a little shorter, why does everyone mistake her for a child?

"Excuse me, I wanted to ask if these cards are accepted."

Lu Yan apologized quickly. Seeing his sincerity, the petite shop owner calmed down, picked up the whole stack of cards, and looked at them with a surprised expression:

"Ha, Ka from Future Ruins, you were the last card master to go in before the blockade?"

"Yes, I also saw the Limb Reattacher. I guess the authorities won't be opening the card domain anytime soon. Will the value of cards in the Future Ruins fluctuate during this period?"

Lu Yan tapped the table with his finger as a gesture: "Manager, to be honest, I'm in urgent need of money, so I don't ask for much. I'll sell it all to you for 14,000."

The Future Ruins card domain has the highest entry restrictions, only 0-2 star card masters are allowed to enter, and card masters above 3 stars cannot enter.

The strength of the monster will fluctuate with the number of people attacking it. The more people there are, the stronger it will be.

In short, no one will be able to deal with the [Limb Reaper] in a short period of time, and the card area will probably be closed for more than half a month.

The cards in [Future Ruins] are very popular among low-star cards, mainly because they are very versatile and their combat power is relatively strong among low-star cards.

Taking all these factors into consideration, the cards owned by Lu Yan can be sold at a higher value than before, which is good news for him as he is in urgent need of money.

"Let me look at the card first."

The pink-haired girl, whose age was unknown, picked up Lu Yan's cards and examined them one by one, comparing them with the price he offered, and nodded slightly in agreement:

"It's worth the price. Show me your account number and I'll transfer the money to you."

The transaction was completed quickly. Lu Yan looked at the text message and raised his eyebrows when he found that 16,000 yuan had arrived. The shopkeeper fiddled with the card in her hand and looked up at Lu Yan with a proud look on her face:

"I'll give you the extra money as a token of my goodwill. If you need a new card in the future, remember to consider my store first. How's that?"

"No problem. By the way, how should I address you, the store manager?"

After verbally agreeing, Lu Yan put the card back into his pocket. The petite store manager had already reclined in the old man's chair, rocking it as she said, "My last name is Jiang, Jiang Jiu."

"Manager Jiang, see you next time."

With 15,000 yuan in hand, his debt target was achieved by nearly 20% at once. The dark clouds that had accumulated in Lu Yan's heart dissipated, and he finally put on a smile, humming a song as he left the store.

At the current rate, it wouldn't be long before I could save up a hundred thousand to pay off my debts.

As his eyes swept over the people and cards on the street, an idea suddenly popped up in Lu Yan's mind.

Can [Supernatural Craftsmanship] be used on other people's cards or even on other people?

After all, there's no mention of [Cannot be used on other people] in his talent, and a person's soul card is also a card.

Raising his eyebrows, Lu Yan pretended to be looking at his phone instead of watching the road, and walked past the passers-by, brushing against their bodies. When the back of his hand touched their clothes, he used his magical skills, but unfortunately there was no response.

Then he tried to touch the materialized card, but unfortunately there was no response. This made Lu Yan gradually realize that his ability might only be effective on cards in card state.

Chapter 5 Card Domain [Human-Machine Battlefield]

"I don't know when I'll be able to see other people's soul cards and cards. First, I need a friend who trusts me~."

Lu Yan, who was alone, laughed at himself. He didn't notice that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the shadows.

After he turned the corner and left, the black man who had cast his eyes on him retreated back into the alley, took out his cell phone and started communicating with others:

"How on earth did you guys do it? Lu Yan is not dead yet!"

"How could I be wrong when I saw it with my own eyes? He looked perfectly fine walking down the street!"

"Get rid of him quickly, otherwise we will be in trouble."

After returning home, Lu Yan lay on the bed and summoned Lamia to continue cultivating their relationship. At the same time, he used his mobile phone to confirm the most cost-effective card area nearby, and finally chose a block similar to [Future Ruins].

[Human-Machine Battlefield], most of the monsters in this card area are humanoid monsters and mechanical monsters. Judging from the types of monsters, they are related to the future ruins.

It can drop the material card [Type II Mechanical Endoskeleton] that Lamia needs. According to online information, there are also consumable cards in the human-machine battlefield that can increase the speed of training.

Slapping his face hard, Lu Yan, who was a little lazy because he had successfully obtained the money, warned himself that he could rest after paying off the debt.

He took back the card that Lamia was holding between his fingers to prevent any accidents, called a taxi and headed to Kayu. Looking at the scenery on the street, he subconsciously rubbed the card to give himself a sense of security.

When they arrived at the entrance of the [Human-Machine Battlefield], there was already a long queue since it was morning. Lu Yan waited for a while before it was his turn. After paying the entrance fee, he entered the card area smoothly.

About an hour later, a card operator arrived at the same location by car. He looked around and found the card area entrance. His expression became very ugly and he dialed a number:

"Damn it, the target seems to have become a card master. No wonder he didn't react to my [Soul Dissolving Element]. He's now in a card domain called [Human-Machine Battlefield]. I'm asking for a price increase."

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, seemingly surprised that Lu Yan had become a card master. After a brief moment of shock, the killer card master's employer made a decisive decision:
