"Little Yan, why are you frowning? Tell your big sister what's troubling you, and don't keep it bottled up in your heart." It was a woman's voice.
It was soft and sweet-sounding, and very pleasant to listen to.
Chen Mu couldn't help but evaluate it to himself, though he had no intention of opening his eyes.
That didn't have any attraction for him.
He had once seen a very beautiful woman use her high heels to ruthlessly stomp and stomp on the body of a fellow vagabond who was with him, while constantly cursing him. He had never thought that such a beautiful voice could actually curse out what he had considered to be the most vicious language in the world.
And the cause of that incident was nothing more than his companion accidentally soiling her high heels while begging for food.
His companion was only six years old at the time, and he was eight.
Without thinking about anything, he threw himself at the beautiful woman without hesitation, but he was too young.
The end result of that incident was that both of them were left with countless little bruises.
His vagabond companion also left him that winter, never to wake up again. That winter was too cold.
Ever since then, when he heard that sweet-sounding woman's voice, he couldn't help but think of that scene.
Chen Mu frowned slightly, though he immediately relaxed his brows.
He told himself that it wasn't worth ruining his good mood for that voice.
But the sound of their conversation kept drilling into his ears.
"I don't know what's going on, big sister, but I just can't make the blue-skinned rabbit fantasy card.
I've tried so many times, but it just doesn't work!
My perception is number one in the class!
But I'm the only one in the whole class who hasn't made a fantasy card! "The crisp voice was very disheartened.
It was a little girl, and Chen Mu didn't need to open his eyes to roughly guess her age, which was certainly no more than twelve.
"Little Yan, tell big sister what it's like when Little Yan makes a card?" The big sister was patient and patient.
"Ai, I can't say. I just feel like the pen in my hand isn't obeying me. I clearly remember its composition, but when I make it, I can't finish it."
Chen Mu suddenly opened his eyes from where he was lying on the ground. Although he had his back to the two sisters, his ears were perked up, afraid to miss a single word.
The little girl's problem was almost exactly the same as his!
"Don't worry, Little Yan.
A one-star fantasy card is very simple. Yan 'er is so smart, she will certainly succeed. "
The elder sister first encouraged the younger sister, and then began to point out the key points: "Yan 'er, you have never made a card before. Although your perception is very high, it is normal that you lack experience.
Many teachers didn't explain this point very clearly.
We do not use perception to control the compatibility between materials, but to induce the compatibility between them. It is like a primer, just a guide.
But the real change in compatibility still depends on the nature of the material itself. Do you understand, Yan 'er? "
It was like a bolt from the blue in Chen Mu's mind, and he was suddenly enlightened.
Lure … lure … lure, so that's what it is!
All the questions seemed to be solved at this moment.
By the time Chen Mu got up, the two sisters had already disappeared.
He didn't know that the two sisters had been walking for more than an hour, and he had been thinking about it unconsciously for more than an hour.
He couldn't wait to break into a run. If only he had a flight card, then he could fly back!
He sprinted all the way, almost crashing into the door.
As soon as he entered the room, he sat in front of the table and buried himself in making a one-star fantasy card.
His heart was full of confidence by then, and he had a kind of premonition that he would certainly succeed that time!
Taking a deep breath to calm the churning in his heart, Chen Mu slowly calmed himself down.
After he had calmed down, he took a blank card and put it in front of him, lightly picking up a pen with his right hand.
Without hesitation, the pen nib fell onto the surface of the card.
The pen nib was wrapped in a clear and unconstrained perception as fine as a strand of hair, as though it were gliding over smooth ice, without the slightest hindrance.
Chen Mu finished the whole composition in one go, without the slightest feeling of difficulty.
That feeling was wonderful!
Proudly putting the completed card in front of him to look it over, Chen Mu's heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Things in this world are really marvelous. It's just a layer of window paper. Once you've pierced it, you've reached another realm!
He inserted the completed card into the card slot of his apparatus and pressed the activation button.
A glowing ball the size of a fist floated in front of Chen Mu out of thin air, warm and emitting a soft white glow.
Chen Mu excitedly stretched out his finger and lightly touched the glowing ball. His finger seemed to be stretching into the air, sinking into the glowing ball.
That glowing ball was only an incorporeal body, or perhaps an image, and not a real entity.
That was the special characteristic of low-grade fantasy cards, while high-grade fantasy cards could use energy to simulate an entity. That was the essential difference between low-grade fantasy cards and high-grade fantasy cards.
With the success of the one-star fantasy card, Chen Mu's already taut string was completely relaxed.
Working day and night for those few days had already pushed his body to the brink of danger. Having relaxed, Chen Mu was immediately drowned in endless drowsiness.
He slept for a full two days and two nights, until he was finally awakened by hunger.
After waking up, Chen Mu randomly found something to eat to fill his stomach.
Habitually sitting in front of the table, Chen Mu was in a daze.
He had already succeeded in making the one-star fantasy card, the biggest problem that had been weighing on his mind.
Continuing to develop toward the one-star fantasy card was now a matter of finesse. That was slow work, and required days and nights of accumulation to have any success.
Making a fantasy card had been Chen Mu's wish, and now that his wish had been realized, he felt a little lost.
Two-star fantasy card?
There wasn't any difference between making a two-star fantasy card and a one-star fantasy card, which wasn't a problem for him.
For a moment, Chen Mu had lost his goal.
Not so long ago, the one-star fantasy card had been so far out of reach in his eyes, and he had always been working hard for that wish.
He had never thought about what he would study after learning to make a one-star fantasy card.
Forget it, he had to live one day at a time, and he would continue making one-star power cards. He had spent a lot of money during that time, and his savings had shrunk badly, so he had to make up for it now.
Taking a card, Chen Mu was just about to start making a one-star power card when he suddenly thought of that mysterious card.
His pen stopped in midair.
That mysterious card seemed to have some strange magic, and he couldn't get it out of his mind no matter how hard he tried.
Putting down his pen, Chen Mu took the card out of the drawer.
The cobweb-like complex silver composition on the surface of the card had long since disappeared, and the pure black card now had countless big and small, dark and bright silver dots. Every time Chen Mu looked at the card, he would always have the illusion of vastness.
Vastness. That kind of feeling was really strange!
Chen Mu laughed at himself.
