What era is it, still traditional card making

Normally, if a woman is bitten unexpectedly, she should let go of her hand out of instinct.

But this woman didn't do that.

Even though there was a red tooth mark on the back of his hand, he still chose not to let go of Ye Qiong's hand, but just looked at him with a very calm gaze.

After Ye Qiong noticed this calm gaze, he was instantly panicked.
No, sister, you don’t feel any pain at all?

The man next to him seemed to be amused by the scene and laughed wildly.

"Hahahaha, Snake Princess, you have come to this day too."

As he spoke, he patted Ye Qiong on the shoulder and continued in an admiring tone:

"You are really brave, no one in our place dares to provoke this cold-blooded creature."

The term cold-blooded creature really describes it well.

At this moment, Ye Qiong felt as if he was being stared at by a predator at the top of the food chain. His heartbeat was accelerating and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead unconsciously.

He forced a smile and said to the woman:

"Well, I said I was joking, do you believe me?"

Before Ye Qiong could find the answer from the woman's face, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck.

His eyes began to blur, his body swayed, and in less than three seconds he fell heavily to the ground.

Zuo Wu looked at Ye Qiong lying on the ground, put on a good-natured look and said to She Ji:

"He's just a kid, why do you have to go to such extremes?"

Snake Princess did not reply, but just looked at him coldly.

Zuo Wu was not afraid at all. He showed a slightly sarcastic smile, then grabbed Ye Qiong by the back of his collar, lifted him up in his hand, and walked towards the light gate.

Snake Princess didn't say any nonsense and chose to follow.
Soon, the figures of the three people disappeared completely.

It hurts, it hurts too much,
At this moment, Ye Qiong felt severe pain all over his body.
It seemed like none of his organs or limbs belonged to him, and they were completely out of his control.
Ye Qiong used up his last bit of strength and opened his eyes.
At this moment, he was lying in a pile of weeds, feeling hot and uncomfortable.
Ye Qiong was tied up with ropes and couldn't move at all.

The surroundings were extremely quiet. Apart from the chirping of insects, no other sounds could be heard.

The moonlight shone in through the small window of the room. When Ye Qiong saw the locked iron door, he couldn't help feeling despair.

There is no doubt that he was captured by the cult and imprisoned in an unknown place.
He had no idea where he was, nor did he know how to ask for help from others.

Ye Qiong gritted his teeth, feeling even more unconvinced:

"Why do I always run into these bad lucks since I traveled through time?"

He gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand up.
Ye Qiong leaned against the wall and asked the system that resided deep inside his body:

"It's been so long? Don't you have any solution at all?"

Right now, the only thing he could count on was this system of unknown origin.

"Host, as long as you collect another 5,000 points, you can redeem the contract!"

"Then give me points!"

"Host, please earn points by completing tasks."

Hearing this, Ye Qiong was also angry.

"Come on, tell me, how should I participate in the duel competition under this situation?
Tell me again, how can I exercise and complete daily tasks under this situation? "

"This system is only responsible for training the host to become the world's strongest card master, and does not have any combat functions."

"That's enough. Just shut up. I'll figure it out myself."

Ye Qiong finally understood that this damn system could not be relied upon at all when the time came.

Now, the only one he can count on is himself.

He leaned against the wall, using the force to stand up. Ye Qiong tried to raise his head and look out the window.
After seeing the scene outside, he couldn't help but feel a sense of despair.
What appeared outside the window was an abandoned farmland.

The orphanage where Ye Qiong lived was located in the central area of ​​Nanhai City, and it was impossible for such a farmhouse scene to appear there.
In other words, this place is at least hundreds of kilometers away from where he lives, if not tens of thousands of miles away.

He still didn't know much about the surrounding situation. Just a farmland was not enough to determine his current location.

Ye Qiong did not give up completely. He believed that there must be some way to help him get out of his current predicament.

As long as he gets 5,000 points, he can redeem the contract and become a card master.
He definitely won't be able to get the 3,000 points from the competition, but as long as he completes the daily tasks, he can get a certain amount of points.

Ye Qiong opened the system panel and checked his current daily tasks.
Task 500: Run one kilometer ( points, can be completed three times.)
Task 100: Complete squats ( points, can complete four times.)
Mission 500: Complete a duel ( points, can be completed twice.)
He had originally planned to do these daily tasks after returning to the orphanage, but who would have thought that these unexpected events would occur along the way.
Now he was locked in a small dark room, so he would definitely not be able to complete the third mission.

After completing Task 1900 and Task 3100, he will be able to obtain points, and he still needs points to unlock the contract.

The system will refresh daily tasks at 12 o'clock every night.
Ye Qiong, who had just woken up, had no idea what time it was. He had to hurry up and complete these daily tasks, otherwise they would be refreshed after 12 o'clock.
So he started running in the small dark room. Although it was extremely narrow, there was still enough space for running.

What Ye Qiong didn't know was that his every move was now being watched by a camera.

Zuo Wu looked at the image projected on the screen and fell into deep thought. He glanced at the woman beside him and said:

"Snake Princess, what do you think this kid is doing?"

Snake Princess looked at the screen, then shook her head and replied:
"I don't know, maybe crazy?"

"Crazy? Do you think that's possible? This kid even dared to bite you, I don't believe he is crazy. Forget it, it's none of my business anyway. As long as this kid doesn't commit suicide, the rest will be dealt with after the high priest comes back."

After that, he was no longer interested in the scene on the screen, waved at Snake Princess, and then continued:

"I'm going to go out and play for a while, you just keep an eye on this."

Zuo Wu pushed open the door and left the room before She Ji could answer.

Snake Queen seemed to be accustomed to her companion's behavior and had no intention of stopping him. She found a chair and sat down, then quietly watched the scene on the screen.

"Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, and twenty are all done." Ye Qiong didn't know how long it took him, but he finally completed the daily tasks assigned by the system.

"System, when will the daily tasks be refreshed?"

He summoned the system and asked a question in a slightly irritated tone. Seeing that the system had not responded yet, Ye Qiong could not help but speak again:

“You don’t even have this function, do you?”

Fortunately, the system did not make him wait too long. Soon a familiar female voice came:

"There are still thirty-one minutes until the mission refreshes."

After hearing the answer, Ye Qiong looked up at the small window above his head unconsciously, feeling quite emotional:

"Is it almost twelve o'clock already?"

Normally, he should be lying in bed sleeping at this time.
I originally thought that being born in an orphanage was the lowest point in life, and it couldn't be any worse than it is now.

But who would have thought that there was an endless abyss waiting for him below the trough.

He didn't give up.

Ye Qiong leaned against the wall and began to rest. He had to conserve his energy so that he could complete the daily tasks the moment they were refreshed.

In his spare time, he spoke to the system in his body:

"System, do you really not have any loan services here? How about you lend me 3100 points first, and when I become the world's strongest card master in the future, I will return you 31000 points?"

He could see that this so-called system was not actually a mechanized program, this damn system had self-awareness.

"This system does not have the relevant functions. Please earn points by completing tasks."

Ye Qiong had expected this, so he didn't feel disappointed.

"With just these tasks, how are you going to train me to become the world's strongest card master? It takes 100,000 points to redeem the contract, and what about the deck? Without a deck, the contract alone is useless!"

"Host, please remember that you are only nine years old now. It is unheard of on Blue Star that a nine-year-old child can awaken the contract and become a card master."

Hearing this, Ye Qiong also became angry. He pointed at the surrounding environment and replied:

"So tell me, is this something a nine-year-old should go through?"

He had no reason to complain about being born in an orphanage. After all, he could live his life over again, so why should he be picky about his parents?
As for the fact that Ye Qinglin sent thugs to harass him, he did not feel very angry. To him, Ye Qinglin was just a small character who was not presentable and at best a stepping stone on his path to growth.

Ye Qiong has a very clear plan for his future life. Even if there is no system, he is confident that he can achieve success in his career.

But now, the emergence of Fengshen Cult has completely disrupted his plan.
Normally speaking, shouldn't the protagonist of a novel have some time to develop after traveling through time?
Why are there constant conflicts when it comes to him?

Letting a nine-year-old child challenge a behemoth that even the Investigation Bureau can't deal with, what's the difference between this and letting Yamcha go to Namek to fight Frieza alone?
After taking a deep breath, he looked up at the ceiling, feeling a sense of powerlessness.

After twelve o'clock, I should have enough points to exchange for the contract, but what after that?

If he only had the contract but no deck, he would still not be able to escape from here.
Although generally speaking, the initial deck will be automatically obtained after the awakening contract, his contract was exchanged from this stingy system.

Will this damn system really prepare a starting deck for him?

It seems impossible just by thinking about it.

Ye Qiong was actually already prepared for a protracted war. Judging from the arrangements those two people had made for him, it would be impossible for the Fengshen Cult to kill him in a short period of time.

Time is passing slowly,
Snake Princess sat on the chair, quietly observing the scene on the screen. Ye Qiong leaned against the wall and had not moved for a long time.

She was quite patient and did not take the initiative to go to the small dark room. She just continued to observe Ye Qiong.

Soon, the time came to twelve o'clock.
Ye Qiong, who had not moved for a long time, opened his eyes and ran in the narrow dark room.

After seeing this scene, Snake Princess also felt very strange.
Does this child have ADHD? He was tied up in a small dark room, and he still had the energy to exercise.
Her intuition told her that this strange child must have other intentions in doing this.
Snake Queen had no habit of disturbing her prey. She stared at the screen quietly, waiting for anything unusual to happen.

About an hour later,
Ye Qiong finally completed his daily tasks, and his total points had reached 100,500, finally meeting the conditions for exchanging the contract.

He leaned against the wall. The long exercise made him a little out of breath. At the same time, because he hadn't eaten for a long time, Ye Qiong felt a little hungry.

If I spend 100,000 points and still can't get out of the current predicament,
Then I'm afraid that even without the intervention of the Fengshen Sect, he would starve to death here.

At this time, Ye Qiong's lips were already a little pale, and he shouted to the system in his body:

"Exchange the contract."

"Host, please wait a moment."

The system responded very quickly. As soon as Ye Qiong finished speaking, she opened her mouth to answer.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the system's voice came again:

"Congratulations to the host for successfully exchanging the contract."

Ye Qiong nodded slightly and replied:
"and then?"

"Congratulations to the host for successfully exchanging the contract."

"No, I asked you, what then?"

Ye Qiong looked around but could not see any trace of the contract.

"Where is my contract?"

“It’s inside you.”

"No, do you also want to believe that your heart is your magic?"

"Host, please try to close your eyes. Then you should be able to see the contract hidden deep in your heart."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiong closed his eyes with a hint of doubt.
Then, he saw that there was indeed a black book in front of him.

He tried to reach out and open the contract.
Then I saw this scene. (End of this chapter)
