Card Creator: My Cards Unlimited Chain.

Chapter 850 Military Pendulum
The deck that Conan wanted to create was nothing short of extravagant.

In her vision, this deck would probably consist of half field cards, and resource management would mainly rely on these fields.

Field cards are known for their high cost and high mental pressure, in exchange for powerful, sustained effects. Furthermore, generally only one field card can be active on the field at a time…

You have so many field objectives in your deck, but you only use them for a short time in battle. Isn't that a complete waste?
Frequently switching venues ignores the advantages of venue cards while amplifying their disadvantages.

The idea of ​​using a venue as a resource operation point is something any card maker would shake their head at.

Except for Yu Cang.

Yu Cang knew in his heart that geniuses always have their own outstanding ideas.

To others, this path seemed impossible, but to Yu Cang, anything was possible.

He had already done too many things to turn the impossible into the possible, so naturally he wouldn't stifle Kang Nan's creativity.

Moreover, this path is not without precedent.

In a past university league match, Yaoqi directly launched a second campaign on the Bloodline Empire·Crimson Demon Utopia, demonstrating that the two battlefields can be used simultaneously.

However, it requires certain skills.

Since two venues can be used together... then using more is also possible.

In his previous life, Yu Cang had seen similar decks, such as Shi Huaijun... Hmm, thinking about it this way, Kang Nan's thinking is quite similar to Shi Huaijun's.

Although the world is full of humor, it doesn't necessarily prevent Conan from forging his own path.

A genius is someone who is different from others.

Anyway, he has the ability to teach her well, and no matter what path Kang Nan chooses, he will not hinder her talent.

In the following days, Yu Cang used an ordinary Bartonora demon to conduct experiments and reproduced a card back soul card.

……

Soul Card Name: Demon Shatter

Category: Spell Cards
Quality: Mythical

Attribute: Ice/Dark

ability:

【Shattered Hell】: Displays this Soul Card, shattering matter within its radius and absorbing its blood and Soul Card fragments.

【Bartonora】: If this Soul Card is in the Deck, all Summoned Cards in the Deck are considered to have the card back: "Bartonora the Demon".

……

Card Back Name: Demon Bartonola

Quality: Mythical

ability:

[Resurrection]: Summoning cards with this card back are considered to have [Resurrection]: This Soul Card can be summoned from its death cooldown by consuming Blood or Soul Card Fragments.

[Demon Race]: The summoned beast after [Resurrection] has its race changed to Demon, its attribute changed to Dark/Fire, and it possesses [Demon Fire]: All abilities are imbued with demon fire that can burn rhythms and absorb blood. At this time, the ability of Rhythm Contradiction will be unusable.

……

This is the card back made by ordinary demons using normal thinking.

This card back was made under normal circumstances without adding any design ideas.

For ordinary townspeople, making this card wouldn't be difficult after a period of learning.

Compared to the Demon King's Sword Sheath, this Soul Card is somewhat weaker. A single [Shattered Hell] card definitely can't match the potential of the combination of [Undying Supplies] and [Blood Sea Drink].

However, it is also simple and straightforward enough. It can launch a large-scale, high-damage attack simply by displaying it. It does not enter a death cooldown and can be used repeatedly, so its minimum performance level is undoubtedly higher.

As for the card back's ability... this card back enhances summoning cards, which is not on the same level as the Demon King's Sword Sheath, so it cannot be directly compared.

But... it's visibly inferior.

Although summoning cards with this card back can be revived infinitely, their attributes and races need to be changed... Many decks operate around these two pieces of information, and once changed, it is difficult to reintegrate them into the resource cycle.

It can even create rhythmic contradictions, rendering the original abilities unusable.

However, when encountering a Soul Master with good deck synergy, the bonus is quite considerable.

This card back represents the most basic application of the demon race.

The Demon King's Sword Sheath transforms fire into ice, focusing the card back bonuses on spell cards. The various techniques employed are all based on the Demon Shatter card.

With these two cards as a reference, the association's card makers should be able to create more card back spirits with various attributes on their own.

Yu Cang nodded in satisfaction. After confirming that there were no problems, he put the card, the thesis, and all the resonance stones into a storage soul card and then handed them over to Di Chang'an.

Next, the association will select card makers and corresponding soul card makers.

After that, Yu Cang stayed in the laboratory for a few more days. During this time, he went deep into the Starry Sky Vision to search for other Star Machine Depots.

Once you have one Star Armory, finding other Star Armory becomes much easier.

But... they did find it, but Yu Cang couldn't even fully control one Star Armory, let alone so many.

Currently, the other Spirit Particle users on Blue Star are not yet strong enough, so entrusting the Star Armory to them is something Yu Cang finds hard to accept.

Ultimately, the conditions for preparing intelligent spiritual particles are too demanding, and Earth cannot provide them.

However, Yu Cang desperately needs the power of the Star Armory.

Although Emperor Chang'an has now ascended to the highest position, the situation on Blue Star is not entirely safe.

Back then, Shenxi fled and licked her wounds in an unknown corner. Yu Cang knew that she would eventually come to Lanxing and continue to plot to seize the power of the Mother of the Lord.

Shen Xi's full strength is definitely at the highest level, and she is also a highly experienced one. Di Chang'an may not be able to defeat her with 100% certainty.

It remains to be seen whether the Shenxi clan has left any contingency plans in the Nightmare borders, and the possibility of another supreme adversary cannot be ruled out.

Star Armory is definitely no match for the Supreme, but a squadron should be able to hold off one Supreme without much trouble.

As long as they can stall for time, Yu Cang might be able to come up with a solution.

Besides Shenxi, the King of the Galaxy and the King of the Imaginary Palace are also formidable opponents.

They are not enemies at present, but the future is uncertain.

At the edge of Nightmare, Xinghe demonstrated the ability to seize control of Star Armory in an instant. Therefore, simply controlling Star Armory is not enough. Yu Cang must use Soul Cards to completely grasp the power of Star Armory.

Fortunately, Yu Cang already had an idea.

Yu Cang stroked the soul card in his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then stood up.

"It's time to go to Jade Frontier."

……

Yu Cang and Gu Jieshuang arrived in Yujiang.

Furthermore, accompanying them were Lei Wanqing and the Second Company of the Ancient Capital Military Region.

There are two purposes for this trip to Yujiang.

Firstly, Yu Cang has some ideas about the Star Machine Library and needs their cooperation in the experiments.

This time, the scale might be enormous. If we conduct the experiment directly near the ancient capital, we might not be able to conceal its power. Even going to another dimension would be difficult.

So, let's try it in the frontier.

Secondly, he wanted to check on Li Anjiu's situation and help him find a way to escape being turned into a wasteland.

Although Zhao Yang said that Li Anjiu is in pretty good condition now, as long as he wears the Lock of Absolute Pressure, he will not become a Desolate Human, and the extreme mental pressure does not seem to have any effect on him.

But wearing the Lock of Absolute Pressure all the time isn't a solution... Li Anjiu's current symptoms of drowsiness and mental instability are very likely due to wearing the Lock of Absolute Pressure for a long time.

Those kinds of things aren't meant for people to wear.

"Xiao Cang... no, that's not right."

Lei Wanqing approached Yu Cang and casually patted his mouth.

"Look at you, I have to call you Yu Zhenguo now—your growth rate really makes this old man feel ashamed..."

Yu Cang smiled: "Chief Lei, why are you telling me all this—just call me Xiao Cang." "Hehe, I knew you were a straightforward person, unlike that old geezer Ren Zheng."

After Ren Zheng became a god, he showed off in front of Lei Wanqing quite a bit.

Lei Wanqing wanted to punch someone every time he saw that pretentious attitude.

At the same time, I'm also quite envious.

When will he become a legend...? It can only mean when Cang will finally figure out the path to godhood through fusion.

He genuinely enjoys fusion.

That ferocious power that gathers all strength always makes his blood boil, and even though he's an old man, his blood still surges.

Therefore, he didn't join the fun of connecting and summoning—mainly because he didn't want to fall into the hands of that old guy Ren Zheng.

In his view, integration is Yu Cang's main focus, and it will definitely be perfected soon.

Thinking of this, he leaned close to Yu Cang and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Little Cang, tell me the truth, did you call me here today because you've found the path to godhood and are just waiting to experiment on me?"

He has finally waited for this day!

The thought of him ascending to godhood and then storming up in front of Ren Zheng to defeat him with a single move of the Fusion of the Explosive Feather filled him with immense excitement!

Seeing Lei Wanqing's appearance, Yu Cang couldn't help but chuckle twice.

You guessed completely wrong.

“Um, Chief Lei, please calm down,” Yu Cang said. “Merging into a god… will happen, but I’m not here today for that. It’s for the test of strengthening the mechanical race.”

"Huh? Isn't this the path to godhood?"

Lei Wanqing was clearly quite disappointed.

So he straightened up, waved his hand, and dispelled the soundproof soul card beside him.

Then, he said earnestly, "Mechanical race reinforcement... Xiao Cang, I'm not trying to be mean, but your talent and time are very precious, so don't waste them on such low-level soul cards... This kind of thing can be left to our military's card makers."

Back then, Yu Cang's Mech deck was quite experienced and perfectly suited to the army, winning the championship in the Armaments Overhaul.

Such a result could be studied for a lifetime by any card maker.

However, Lei Wanqing said that this thing took up Cang's time and was a complete waste.

Although the Mechanical Race is very strong, it is ultimately a set of Soul Cards that mainly focuses on the cooperation of groups below the Legendary level. The current Xiao Cang is focused on the Mythical Realm, and the Mechanical Race's things are really not worth it.

Lei Wanqing even feels a little regretful now.

孽 孽!
Although he knew that Yu Cang was fast at making cards, even wasting a single day in the process of perfecting the path to godhood would be a huge loss!
Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "Moreover, Xiao Cang, in the past few days, our card makers have already explored the field of mechanical races to a great extent. Even if there is a little more improvement, it will be very limited."

This is true.

The Mechanical Race was one of the earlier things Yu Cang came up with, and compared to other achievements, the rhythm of this field is relatively simple. There was also some basic research before Yu Cang, so the card makers followed up quite quickly.

Now, not only have the results that Yu Cang presented been improved several times, but even those mechanical creatures that were previously called toys have been upgraded several times.

Now, the soldiers' card decks are quite comprehensive, and they have built a nearly omnipotent cluster combat system around the ammunition mechanism and the Wild Crystal.

Furthermore, Yu Cang later summarized the legendary forbidden engine and sent the paper to the military region.

Now, this card is gradually being made available for use—after all, consciousness is still related to forbidden cards, and the association is quite cautious about this card.

It's not that Lei Wanqing is pessimistic, it's just that there's practically nothing left to explore in this field. Even if Yu Cang is incredibly talented, there's no hope—or rather, it's inefficient.

Upon seeing this, Yu Cang smiled gently.

"Commander Lei, don't speak too confidently."

Lei Wanqing was taken aback.

He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Yu Cang stuffed two soul cards into Lei Wanqing's hands.

"Let's take a look at these two cards first."

……

Soul Card Name: Spirit Particle Collection

Category: Summoning Card
Star Rank: 5
Quality: Rare

Attribute: Light

Race: Mechanical

ability:

[Collection]: This Soul Card can store a certain amount of Spirit Particles.

-

Inner Star Rank: 6
Hidden Ability:
[Ammunition]: When this Soul Card is present on the Pendulum Bridge, it can convert Spirit Particles into Ammunition.

【Spirit Bridge】: When both ends of the Spirit Bridge are the same Soul Card, the "Spirit Bridge" can be activated.

……

Soul Card Name: Spirit Well
Category: Summoning Card
Quality: Rare

Attribute: Light

Race: Mechanical

Star Rank: 5
ability:

【Exploration Well】: This Soul Card can search the surrounding rhythmic environment and match it with Spirit Particles.

-

Inner Star Rank: 4
Hidden Ability:
【Spirit Well】: When this Soul Card exists on the Spirit Bridge, it can accelerate the charging speed of the Spirit Particles in the Soul Card at the other end of the Spirit Bridge.

【Spirit Bridge】: When both ends of the Spirit Bridge are the same Soul Card, the "Spirit Bridge" can be activated.

……

Upon seeing the two cards, Lei Wanqing hissed and then fell into deep thought.

That's right, this time the summoning card is a pendulum!
Lei Wanqing was naturally familiar with this summoning method—after all, it was the second summoning method to perfect the path to godhood!
But combining it with mechanical engineering...

After a moment's thought, Lei Wanqing's eyes widened slightly.

It seems like it really suits her!
Why are the Mech race well-suited for military operations?
Firstly, it is due to the ammunition mechanism, which allows it to exert great power even in the hands of low-level Soul Card Masters.

Secondly... the proportion of mental stress is very small!

But even the smallest one exists.

The epic-level individual reactive armor is almost impossible for a level 4 Soul Card Master to fully summon. They can only upgrade individual parts to epic level and then make up for it through teamwork.

Furthermore, this mental stress... once it exists, it's impossible to maintain it for long.

Maintaining equipment cards in the wild for extended periods can be quite taxing, and if you don't maintain them, you'll have to summon them one by one in a sudden battle, which could be too late.

However, pendulum cards can make up for this shortcoming.

The pendulum cards at both ends of the pendulum bridge are essentially continuous spell cards and do not consume mental stress!
Therefore, it can last forever.

However, when encountering combat, one only needs to perform a pendulum summon to instantly summon all the components of the individual reactive armor!

It's important to know that while the War Soldier Reactive Armor is an Epic item, its components are all rare. The Pendulum Bridge, with its Rank 4 to 6, can summon all the components and then combine them!

This significantly enhances flexibility.

“…Xiao Cang, you truly live up to your reputation.” Lei Wanqing couldn’t help but sigh, “These two cards do indeed greatly enhance the Machine race…but even so, they are a huge waste of your talent.”

Yu Cang smiled.

"Commander Lei, do you really understand the true purpose of these two cards?"

He knew what Lei Wanqing was thinking, and that was indeed one of his objectives.

However, the reason for using a pendulum is for a grander goal—

He wanted to use pendulum summoning... to give warriors the right to summon war celestial bodies from the Astral Armory!
