Chapter 159 Throwing tiles!

The [Emperor] symbolizes domination, the [Power] symbolizes will, and the [Star] symbolizes hope. Without considering the direct or reversed positions, they are not bad choices just from the literal point of view.

But considering the lesson from the previous [Hermit], Feng Xue had to carefully consider the possible side effects.

The Hermit, when opening the chart, will cause problems with declining interpersonal relationships, which seems to be understood as each card having both the positive and reversed effects at the same time.

The upright position is a gain, and the reversed position is a side effect.

But Feng Xue has only a passing knowledge of Tarot cards, and being able to remember the basic meaning of each card is already the limit. It would be really difficult to expect him to be like some big guys in his previous life and give you a tens of thousands of words of analysis with just a wave of his hand.

"Literally speaking, the Star of Hope is the best, but we have to consider the fact that 'powerful cards often come with severe side effects', and the Emperor of Domination always gives people a villain feeling, and it is estimated that it will also reduce interpersonal relationships. As for Strength, the Will it represents is a relatively neutral word, without any particular bias, but it is more difficult to infer the ability..."

Feng Xue thought for a while, and finally focused his attention on the [Strength] card. The [Will] it represents happens to be something that every architect must possess.

As a non-subjective word, it should be relatively mild. The effect may not be too strong, but it should not have too many side effects either.

With this thought in mind, Feng Xue selected the [Strength] card. As the other two cards returned to the deck, a line of text appeared next to the [Strength] card that was gradually approaching:

[The prerequisite for victory is to be able to carry out your own will. Those who pursue strength, the hymn of courage will always accompany you. ]

"Tsk, another riddle."

Feng Xue grinned and wanted to complain, but when he returned to the node selection page and looked at the new node that appeared, he suddenly felt that he didn't need to guess anymore, because...

"This is courage, right?!"

Looking at the eight nodes around the initial node, four of which were [Normal Operation] and three of which were [Emergency Operation], Feng Xue was completely upset. What? There was another one?
The remaining one is his [Dangerous Enemy]!

"I understand. The effect of the [Strength] card is to turn all nodes into combat nodes... Chao!"

Feng Xue grumbled in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Without the effect of the [Hermit] card, when he focused his sights on the node, all he got were simple descriptions like [an ordinary battle], [a difficult battle], and [a desperate fight].

Although Feng Xue felt a bit overwhelmed at a glance at the densely packed battle nodes, he was not so worried when he considered that more battles would yield more spoils.

After all, compared with the meat pigeon [Feng Xue and the Enlightenment in Longchang], even if there are no collections dropped in [Feng Xue and the Lonely Journey of Huanmeng], it is possible to harvest resources within the node.

"I'll try to fight as far as possible this time, and I won't do the level-suppression trick!" Feng Xue muttered to himself, and chose a [Normal Combat] that was farthest from [Danger Road and Evil Enemies]. After all, based on the experience of the last exploration, the distances between these nodes actually represent their real geographical locations in the wasteland. In other words, the two nodes that appear to be adjacent should not be far away from each other in the Dreamland. When he clicked on the node, it was still a scene of rocky desert, but to Feng Xue's surprise, the Gobi Desert at this time seemed to be somewhat different from the last time he entered.

Although the wilderness was full of rocks last time, there was still some vegetation, and occasionally some traces of human activities could be seen. But now this area is a completely desolate scene of desertification, with sandy soil and sparse, dry plants that look like they lack water. If there were not one or two severely weathered stone mountains, Feng Xue felt that this place could already be called a desert.

As Feng Xue absorbed the information from the picture, a line of text slowly emerged next to the picture:

[The route you chose is not really good. Not only is there a lack of supplies along the way, but there are also no decent towns or strongholds. This makes you naturally regarded as an inexperienced novice by those who are interested. Be careful, they are following you! ]

Once the text was finalized, the picture immediately entered the rendering state. Feng Xue seemed to have suddenly transformed from a spectator viewing the painting into a person in the painting. As the dry wind blew across his skin, a sound of breaking air came from behind him.

"call out!"

Feng Xue, who had been prepared, moved sideways. As arrows flew past his side, Feng Xue turned around and saw a group of four people attacking him in a tacit formation like a hunting team.

"Using crossbows instead of guns? By the way, guns are called shock sticks in this crappy place..." Feng Xue felt tired when he thought of those Romka people who used ordinary guns as enchanted sticks. However, his absent-minded look in the battle just confirmed his identity as a novice.

The striker, who had been advancing cautiously, rushed forward with one hand holding an explosion-proof shield made from the door of an armored vehicle and the other hand swinging a club that was thick at one end and thin at the other end, like the ones commonly seen in primitive animations. Behind him, two companions holding bone weapons also charged forward under his cover. The tacit understanding of maintaining the formation even though they couldn't wait to rush forward made Feng Xue sigh at the combat qualities of the monsters in the new meat pigeon.

"This is much better than that group of thugs!" Feng Xue thought secretly in his heart, but let out a sharp whistle. The next moment, a blue sword light suddenly took shape and stabbed at the crossbowman who was separated from the team like a sharp sword.

The man with the shield was not at all slow in responding to Feng Xue's action of summoning the flying sword. He suddenly raised the stick in his hand and stuck it into the car door. With an incomprehensible and exaggerated deformation like an American comedy cartoon, the stick and the shield combined into a huge... fly swatter?

The whole process sounds very slow, but it is strangely fast in a way that seems out of touch with practice. By the time the "fly swatter" was swung, the sword light shot by Feng Xue had only advanced five meters!

"Oh my goodness, the shield axe is super unlocked, right?" Feng Xue looked at the familiar movement and felt uneasy. But if this was a shield axe, then the remaining two...

"Fuck, Taidaoxia!"

Two blades flashed across each other, and Feng Xue suddenly felt a sense of both laughter and tears. He swung his right hand violently, and the fantasy that had been accumulating in his mind before entering this node instantly became reality.

"The Death Troupe! Come out!"
