Chapter 149 - Drawing Cards (1/2)
7 of Hearts gave two treasure chests. Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang each walked up to one and placed their hand into the treasure chest at the same time, also taking it out at the same time.Xiao Lou knew the card he drew would be strange so he went to see Yu Hanjiang’s card first.
[Equipment Card: Glock 17]
Rarity: S
Description: A limited weapon. There is a chance of obtaining it from the draw with a perfect clearance and S-grade evaluation.
Weapon data: 9 mm calibre, 357 m/s, 620 g weight, a gun body length of 186 mm, equipped with 9 mm diameter handgun bullets, magazine capacity of 17.
This is the gun that policemen of many countries use. It is easy to carry and has high shooting accuracy for those who know how to use it.
Note: The handgun doesn’t have any skills. In the end, whether it shoots through the opponent’s head or accidentally shoots into your teammate’s back depends on the user’s own technique. This type of weapon isn’t recommended for rookies.
Once Xiao Lou saw this small, black handgun, he smiled and said, “Group Leader Yu, you really got this weapon again! You should be most comfortable with this gun, right? In reality, it is a police officer’s gun?”
Yu Hanjiang put away the card and nodded. “Yes, I am really most skilled with a handgun.
Ye Qi wasn’t interested in Yu Hanjiang’s various types of guns. He was very curious about Professor Xiao’s card. He came over and asked excitedly, “Professor Xiao, what type of card did you draw? Is it a poet again?”
Liu Qiao heard this and also walked over to see.
Xiao Lou’s mood was complicated as he revealed the card. He saw a thin woman drawn on the card. She was a plain, long gown and her hair was up in a simple bun. A plain hairpin was inserted from the side and her curved willow eyebrows made her facial features more beautiful and moving.
It was actually the talented woman Li Qingzhao of the Song Dynasty!
[Summoning Card: Li Qingzhao]
Rarity: S
Description: A limited character card. There is a chance of obtaining it from the draw with a perfect clearance and S-grade evaluation.
Li Qingzhao is the most famous female poets in history. She is one of the representatives of the graceful poets and is known as the most ‘talented woman in ancient times’.
Additional Skill 1: Searching, Seeking, Coldness and Desolation, Dreariness and Misery
Li Qingzhao’s famous work ‘A Long Melancholy Tune’ that depicts a sad scene. The skill will cause a 100 metre area around Li Qingzhao to be affected by her grief. The targets’ movement speed, attack speed and card skill release speeds are collectively reduced by 10%. It is like a movie playing in slow motion. During this period, all acceleration cards are invalidated and the speed won’t be restored until Li Qingzhao finishes reading the words.
Additional Skill 3: Stray Into the Depths of the Lotus Flowers (Unlocked at level 30)
Li Qingzhao indulged in the beautiful scenery but unexpectedly went the wrong way and rowed her boat into the depths of the lotus flowers. Use the skill in Hearts/Spades/Clubs to return yourself and your designated teammates to the position you were three minutes ago to avoid getting lost. In the Diamonds maze, you can specify a coordinate position. Once you use the skill, you and your designated teammates will immediately return to this coordinate point. The coordinate point can be changed every 30 minutes up to three times.
Xiao Lou took a closer look at the description of her skills.
This was a very strong function card. The first skill was a group control. During the time while Li Qingzhao was reading poetry, everyone’s speed would slow by 10%. This could be used as an evasive response to the enemy’s fierce firepower.
The flying pigeon could pa.s.s messages as well as materials accurately. In the later secret rooms, sometimes teammates would act separately instead of being all together. At this time, it would be very useful to use Who Sent the Brocade from Beyond the Clouds? to send news and clues.
Not much needed to be said about the third skill. It was maze magic.
Yie Qi looked at the long card description and his brain was a bit dull. He couldn’t help feeling, “Professor Xiao, you really stabbed the hornet’s nest of poetry. The graceful poets are coming to you one by one!”
Xiao Lou helplessly smiled as he put away the Li Qingzhao card. “It is probably because I was bored in high school and specifically memorized these poems. I recited the most poems from the graceful school and the bold school of poetry…”
Yu Hanjiang said, “No wonder why in the previous Diamonds room, you just had to finish reading the question on poetry and you could immediately give the answer.”
Liu Qiao had a serious expression. “You’ve already obtained Liu Yong, Qin Guan and Li Qingzhao. They are three poets from the graceful school. Then will a poet from the bold school of poetry come to you next?”
Ye Qi laughed. “If you say this then Professor Xiao’s next card might be Su s.h.i.+!”
Xiao Lou also had this not so subtle feeling.
He had drawn three graceful poets. Will it be the turn of the bold poets next?
***
The four of them left the Hearts room and immediately entered 5 of Spades. They continued to clear the three Spades rooms. 5 of Spade and 6 of Spades were pure survival secret rooms. There was no perfect clearance and no reward chests given.
Thanks to the help of the attack strategy guide, the four of them survived the two secret rooms and managed to come out. 7 of Spades gave two treasure chests and this time Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang still went up to draw cards. Yu Hanjiang drew the limited weapon Mad Believers, which was the fiercest submachine gun!
So far, Yu Hanjiang’s weapons a.r.s.enal was really comprehensive.
There was the ultra-long-range sniper gun that could shoot a single target from a kilometer away Silver Moon. The melee and wilderness hunting flexible shotgun, Bloodthirsty Golden Shark. The portable, sneak attack and a.s.sa.s.sination handgun, Glock 17 and the group a.s.sault submachine gun Mad Believers.
As a firearms enthusiast, Yu Hanjiang had studied many types of guns in the real world and realized a dream in the Card World. He now had four guns, the sharp Night Devil Saber and the lightweight dagger Star Blade with the ability to stun when attacking from behind. Yu Hanjiang’s fighting ability would definitely make the enemy scared!
Yu Hanjiang was in a good mood as he placed his new card into the card pack.
Xiao Lou reached out to draw a card and Ye Qi, Liu Qiao and Yu Hanjiang looked at the same time to see—
[Congratulations on receiving the S-grade card ‘Summoning Card: Su s.h.i.+.]
Xiao Lou had a headache. “You’re right. I received too many graceful poets so this bold one was sent!”
