My Card Beast Taming Game

"You're in charge of scouting the left, and I'll be in charge of the right. If you spot anything unusual, whether it's a person or a monster, you need to alert them."
Mei Xian summoned the Mist Shadow Owl while assigning tasks.
Zhou Chen responded and then summoned the spirit card using the card summoning device.
The Black-feathered White Ape is definitely unusable; it's too different from the Bronze tier. Besides, the Spirit Cards are all Silver, and the two teammates aren't blind.
But he happened to have a White Ape No. 2 card that he had gotten from killing monsters before, which was a good shield to use.
Why not use Qinglintong?
Because one of the main sources of income from hunting wolf monsters in the Hungry Wolf Realm is wolf pelts, and flames will only damage them.
Zheng Chao glanced at the card in the rearview mirror and said, "This is the card you used to win the championship?"
"Yes, melee type."
Zhou Chen had learned about Zheng Chao's secret realm spirit card from Mei Xian. He remembered that it was an earth-attribute card creature called Mountain Bear, which was both tanky and had high attack power.
It will be responsible for absorbing the main damage during the upcoming hunt.
The vehicle quickly drove out of the outpost town. Beyond the huge metal gate lay a vast wilderness stretching as far as the eye could see, dotted with coniferous forests.
Zhou Chen's body swayed slightly as the off-road vehicle rocked, and he observed the environment on the left side through binoculars.
Since being promoted to a junior card master, his perception ability has improved in all aspects, allowing him to detect enemies within his line of sight more quickly and accurately, just like Lu Qingning and Han Baobao.
"A small pack of wolves appeared in the coniferous forest at nine o'clock; there were three bloodtooth wolves and two feathered wolves."
Without turning his head, he said, "Want to fight?"
Mei Xian decisively said, "Answer!"
Zheng Chao quickly turned the steering wheel and laughed, "Even a small mosquito is still meat. There are many card masters who come to the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm to make a living, so it's easy for there to be too many monks and not enough porridge."
As they spoke, the distance between the vehicle and the wolf pack rapidly closed.
call!
The Misty Night Owl took flight, and White Ape No. 2 also leaped toward the wolf pack after the vehicle came to a stop.
Mei Xian originally intended to assign the Bloodtooth Wolves at the forefront to Zhou Chen to deal with, while she would go and kill the Feather Wolves behind them. However, before she could even speak, White Ape No. 2 had already charged into the pack of wolves.
A flash of cold light.
"Awooo—"
The howling of the wolves abruptly stopped.
White Ape No. 2's figure swept past a group of giant wolves the size of calves like a dragon, then turned to look at the crowd.
Puff puff!
A strange, muffled thud came from the side of the wolves.
Zheng Chao and Mei Xian looked over and immediately saw a large amount of blood mixed with internal organs gushing out from the side of the wolves.
This also caused them to completely lose their ability to move.
"He's got something."
Zheng Chao whistled.
Although it was only a one-star monster in terms of size, the fact that the White Ape could kill five of them so quickly was enough to prove its extraordinary strength.
Mei Xian pursed her lips and took out dissection tools from her spatial backpack.
Zhou Chen proactively put on gloves and protective clothing, then stepped forward to skin, remove teeth, and sever the tail, his hands as steady as an old butcher's.
Mei Xian had just finished dealing with two bodies when he had already finished dealing with all three.
Zheng Chao was a little stunned. "Zhou Chen, have you been dealing with monster corpses for many years?"
"No, I only started learning it recently."
Zhou Chen washed his hands casually.
He did start learning from Lu Qingning, but he practiced a lot on those monkeys, and maybe he had a little bit of talent along the way.
Anyway, a skilled butcher is made through practice!
Faced with the dismembered limbs scattered on the ground, Zhou Chen took out a blank card amidst the expectant and curious gazes of Mei Xian and Zheng Chao, and then placed his hand on it.
A few seconds later, a fresh one-star Bloodtooth Wolf card was produced.
"Wow! A great start!"
Zheng Chao smiled broadly and said, "You're really lucky!"
Zhou Chen didn't say anything and continued making cards.
In the end, the five incomplete wolf carcasses were made into four cards, which were then displayed in front of the group, shining brightly.
Zheng Chao gave a thumbs up, "I'm impressed! You take 60% of the profits from card production, I'm completely convinced and have no complaints!"
Mei Xian also breathed a slight sigh of relief. Proposing to Zheng Chao that a trainee card maker join the team and take 60% of the card production revenue and 40% of the material revenue was something that required a lot of courage for her.
Fortunately, Han Baobao didn't lie to her, and Zhou Chen didn't disappoint her either.
The card makers are very pragmatic; they laugh when they make money and frown when they don't. The 80% card-making probability gave this newly formed team a good start.
The off-road vehicle got back on the road and headed towards the buffer zone, deliberately heading further away to avoid competing with other teams for monsters.
During this time, they encountered two more groups of Bronze-tier wolves. They successfully defeated one group, but abandoned the other group because other teams made the first move. In addition to this team, they also encountered five other teams.
Zheng Chao laughed and said, "Hahaha, this is what the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm is like, there are more people than wolves."
About an hour later, the off-road vehicle traversed through dense coniferous forests and successfully arrived at a buffer zone in the northeast corner of the secret realm.
As a medium-sized secret realm, the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm is certainly not as large as the Watery Secret Realm, but it is still quite vast.
The buffer zone leading to the middle layer is particularly flat, with visibility exceeding several kilometers, so one can naturally witness the "birth" of the monster.
Coincidentally, less than a kilometer away from them, about six or seven giant wolves of different shapes "emerged" from underground.
Chapter 89: The Counterattack Against Silver! (Tenth Update)
To this day, many mysteries remain surrounding the secret realms and monsters.
Humanity currently defines these various secret realms, large and small, as fragments of the world; otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why they have boundaries.
The monsters are referred to as cells of the secret realm.
Unlike common animals that reproduce by laying eggs or giving birth to live young, they are like weeds in a field, which "grow" back up from the ground after being harvested.
Like the automatically respawning monsters in an RPG game, they never run out.
Back when he was exploring the Water Marsh Secret Realm with Lu Qingning and the others, Zhou Chen had already witnessed the process of the secret realm giving birth to monsters. However, the way various insects and toads crawled out of the ground was perfectly natural.
Therefore, he never took it to heart.
Now, seeing a large, robust, rhinoceros-like, greyish-white wolf emerging from the ground, followed by several calves of its kind, he realized the scene was a bit eerie.
"Zhou Chen, you and Xiao Mei deal with the Bronze-tier wolf cubs! I'll hold off the three-star Silver-tier Wind Demon Wolf. Xiao Mei, come and support me when you've killed enough of it. Zhou Chen, retreat immediately after you've finished killing it, don't linger in the fight!"
Zheng Chao naturally took over command.
Zhou Chen and Mei Xian had no objections, and each dispatched White Ape No. 2 and Mist Shadow Night Owl to spread out to both sides, leaving enough space for Zheng Chao's Mountain Bear.
"Roar!"
The giant bear, its body bluish-black and covered in heavy rock armor, resembling a tank, landed and immediately faced the gray wolf charging at the front.
"Awooo—!!"
The Wind Demon Wolf howled angrily, its fur standing on end, and a semi-transparent hurricane swirled around it, blasting towards the charging enemy!
Long!
A violent vertical tornado ravaged the land, uprooting countless weeds and sending them crashing heavily onto the mountain bear along with sand and gravel!
However, the gale-force winds, strong enough to overturn a car, did not cause much damage to the mountain bear, only causing it to shift its body slightly backward.
At the same time, the Night Owl of the Mist swooped down from mid-air at high speed, its sharp claws grabbing at the heads of several wolf-like monsters behind the Wind Demon Wolf, while White Ape No. 2 used its sharp blade to take their lives from the other side, its movements as fluid as cutting grass.
Despite being their first day as a team, the two cooperated remarkably well, taking down four giant wolves in a single encounter. The enraged Wind Demon Wolf quickly turned and charged at White Ape No. 2, but was evaded by the latter using Wind and Thunder Escape.
Zhou Chen shouted, "I'll take care of the remaining two!"
Upon hearing this, Mei Xian did not hesitate to control the Mist Shadow Owl to pounce on the Wind Demon Wolf and unleashed her active skill—
[Mist Claw Raid]!
"Cheep!"
The Night Owl of the Mist let out a strange cry and, with lightning speed, grabbed at the eye of the Wind Demon Wolf, successfully crushing it.
Before the Wind Demon Wolf, howling in pain, could even bite and attack its opponent, the Mountain Bear charged in with a roar, its massive body, weighing over ten tons, crashing directly into it. The two behemoths instantly rolled into a ball.
On the other side, White Ape No. 2 had already killed the remaining two bronze-tier giant wolves, and the power of the lightning made their fur smell burnt.
Things are different now. Zhou Chen is no longer the novice card master he once was. Even with his beginner level, he can easily and comfortably maneuver through monster hordes while controlling bronze-tier spirit cards. His reaction speed is fast enough for him to perfectly control the White Ape.
If Zheng Chao hadn't given him advance notice, he might have even considered stabbing the Wind Demon Wolf in the kidneys.
About two minutes later.
The mountain bear violently snapped the wind demon wolf's head off, then pinned it beneath its body to prevent it from rising from the dead. "Roar..."
"ended."
Zheng Chao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
The crimson-clawed Mist Shadow Owl flew back to Mei Xian's side, then tucked its head under its wing roots to preen its disheveled feathers.
Zhou Chen, who was already dressed in his gear, quickly stepped forward to begin the dissection, and Mei Xian joined in after a short rest.
Zheng Chao watched with great interest.
Bronze-tier spirit cards are just a bonus; if even silver-tier spirit cards were available—
"It's done."
Zhou Chen held up a silver card with a picture of the Wind Demon Wolf on it. "The first silver card."
The card reflected a dazzling light in the sunlight, successfully attracting the attention of Mei Xian, Zheng Chao, and their card creatures.
"Great job, bro!"
Zheng Chao became excited, "The first one was a success!"
Zhou Chen also laughed and said, "Luck."
Mei Xian silently withdrew her gaze and continued to deal with the giant wolf's corpse.
Her personality is similar to that of Zhou Chen in the past; she is not good at speaking and is dull. She can't keep up with the conversation for more than a few sentences, so Zheng Chao and Zhou Chen chatted the whole way there.
However, she was very diligent and basically took on most of the miscellaneous tasks, including managing the space backpack, dissecting, driving, and confirming directions.
On the way, they would ask Zhou Chen and Zheng Chao if they were thirsty or hungry.
This makes people like her even more.
However, after dealing with the wolf carcasses, Zheng Chao used binoculars to observe his surroundings and discovered a new pack of wolves two kilometers away.
"Such good luck? But I feel like we can't handle it."
Zheng Chao turned his head and said, "Three two-star Wind Demon Wolves and two bronze-level wolves, it'll be quite difficult to fight them, right?"
He would dare to try if all his teammates were novice card masters.
Unfortunately, there was a trainee card maker.
Mei Xian also felt that there was no need to take risks. Everyone was there to make money, so there was no need to be too greedy.
Zhou Chen suddenly spoke up: "If I said I could hold off one, do you think I have a chance of winning?"
The other two looked at him.
Zheng Chao asked with surprise and doubt, "The White Ape can hold off one? Really?"
Mei Xian frowned, "There are plenty of easy targets to pick up in the buffer zone..."
Zhou Chen looked at her and said, "A two-star silver-tier fighter is much weaker than a three-star one, right? They're easy targets too."
"Then let's give it a try!"
