My exclusive card pool

Chapter 34: Two Weeks Left
hum! !

In the dark rifts of my mind, fog surged.

Four balls of green light intertwined and gradually merged into one.

In Wang Xi's hand, there was a new card with an icy touch.

Bloody Knight (Skill Card)

"Quality: Dark Green One Star (Upgradable)"

Experience Points: 8/300

"This young noble has mastered advanced battlefield combat techniques, and possesses formidable overall combat power. If he were to wear armor and ride on horseback, his slaughter would be bloody and brutal, striking fear into the hearts of his enemies."

"After using this, you will master all the knight's combat abilities, such as crossbowmanship, horsemanship, and melee combat. You will be particularly adept at armor-piercing, decapitation, parrying, and counter-swordplay."

"It's upgraded from green to dark green, and even the experience bar of the Elite Sergeant has been partially inherited..."

Wang Xi was quite surprised.

He remembered that the "Elite Sergeant" originally had nearly 30 experience points, but after the synthesis, it seemed to have been distributed and diluted, becoming only 8 points.

Although it is less, it is better than zero.

And this new card will definitely bring him a stronger blessing.

After all, this card has been synthesized twice, which is equivalent to the fusion of seven skill cards.

"Oh, and here are the two white cards I just drew."

Wang Xi suddenly thought of something.

He took out "Lock Picking Mastery" and "Drinker and Eater" and tried to combine them with "Bloody Knight".

The result was ejected.

This time, Caius gave a clear hint—

"Quality not up to standard"

Wang Xi suddenly understood.

The synthesis function has many restrictions. Not only must the category be consistent, but the quality must also be consistent.

In short, white cards can only be combined with white cards, and green cards can only be combined with green cards, and they cannot be mixed together.

"A King can't play with a Bronze."

Wang Xi shook his head.

But he soon realized that this analogy was not quite right, because some fish-frying dogs would open smurf accounts.

hum!
Wang Xi activated the "Bloody Knight" and made it permanently reside in himself.

In an instant, he felt that he had become stronger again!

He touched his waist out of habit, but the leather-wrapped hilt of the sword was no longer there, and he only felt his waist bone.

Only then did Wang Xi remember that he was in the main world.

But he had a strong intuition.

If he drew his sword, he could confidently defeat the three Iron Fingers Knights in a pure close combat. If he also used Sugar Coating and Water Arrow magic, he could easily defeat them in a short period of time.

"It feels so good to be stronger—ah!"

Wang Xi took a deep breath and smiled.

About twenty minutes later, at around 1:30 in the afternoon, the takeaway arrived.

It was delivered by the nurse just now.

"Thank you." Wang Xi took it with a smile. "Would you like to eat something together? I also ordered papaya milk, Jimei."

"It's not necessary!"

The nurse was suffocating.

She quickly refused and turned away.

As he walked, he took out his cell phone and reminded the nurses in the work group to be careful of the idiot man in this ward.

Wang Xi smiled and said goodbye, unpacking the package and starting to eat. He was rich now, so he didn't want to treat himself badly. He ordered four dishes, a soup, three boxes of rice, and two bottles of papaya milk.

He didn't finish the fruit his colleagues gave him, so he took a pear and prepared it as a dessert after dinner.

While eating, Wang Xi was browsing his phone.

There were hundreds of unread messages in the "Cleaning Department Group 2 Work Group", and he scrolled through them.

"Yu Zihan @ Everyone: Everyone, I passed the test!"

This message was sent an hour ago.

There was also a photo attached, which was a selfie of Yu Zihan standing on the stairs, sweating profusely but with a smile on his face.

It seems to have just come out of the building behind.

"Gaofen: Congratulations!"

"Raven: Great news, haha!"

Other colleagues also sent their congratulations.

Various festive emoticons are stacked up like a long building.

"Zhu Yuhe: Did you pass the amateur hero assessment? What level of certificate did you get?"

"Yu Zihan: I didn't perform well in the physical fitness test, barely passed 5th stage."

"Zhu Yuhe: I didn't perform well, but I'm here..."

"Zhu Yuhe: You're so pretentious. (Picking nose)"

"Yu Zihan: Who is pretending to be so cool? I'm speechless."

"Luo Xiaoliang: You're awesome, buddy! Brother Lei and I only have 3rd-level certificates, and now you've become the highest-ranked warrior in our group!"

"Yu Zihan: Correction, it's an amateur hero."

"Raven: It's worth celebrating! Let's go out for a nice meal tonight."

"Zhu Yuhe: Is it Yu Zihan's treat? I won't be sleepy if we have a feast, hehe."

"Yu Zihan: Okay, I'll treat you."

"..."

Wang Xi chewed his food and looked at the group chat silently, then he remembered that today was the day of the amateur warrior assessment.

It seems that my colleague Yu Zihan, who has been pursuing his dream, has successfully taken his first step and has become a 5th-dan amateur warrior.

Not only will he have a higher salary in the future, he will also receive corresponding preferential treatment in other aspects.

Team leader Lei Wen mentioned that the leader of Cleaning Department Team 5 was in poor health and was about to leave. It was very likely that Yu Zihan would take over the position when the time came.

This immediately aroused everyone's envy.

"Zhu Yuhe @ Wang Xi: Handsome guy, it's a good thing you didn't take the test, otherwise you'd have to pay for our meal today, haha... Just kidding, don't be angry, there's another one at the end of the year, and you can get a 9th dan right away then! Go, go, go!"

"Raven: It's really a pity, Little Wang."

Colleagues offered comfort.

Even today’s protagonist Yu Zihan said:
"I heard from Sister Zhuzi that you are very skilled and must have powerful cards. If you take the test, you will definitely get a higher rank than me."

Wang Xi looked at the group chat and couldn't help but smile.

Recalling the workplace in my previous life, there was all sorts of blame-shifting, forming cliques and taking sides, and it was as murky as a dark forest.

Today's workplace offers excellent benefits and a more harmonious atmosphere among colleagues. After all, in a dangerous job like street scavenging, everyone is more like a comrade-in-arms than a traditional colleague.

Of course, except for a certain fat guy.

Wang Xi picked up the food with one hand and typed on his phone with the other hand. He replied, "It's okay," and congratulated Yu Zihan.

After dinner, he checked this year's Professional Warrior Assessment on his phone and found that the specific time had been announced:
2045 6 Month 15 Day.

'Two more weeks...' Wang Xi said to himself.

...

...

The "Wild Boar Snoring in the Ryewood" hotel.

In the room on the second floor, the black-haired young man who was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze blinked, and his originally indifferent eyes regained their lively look.

Wang Xi prepared for the exam in the ward of the main world for two days, feeling bored. Finally, when the cooling time was over, he couldn't wait to come.

"Another fourteen days wasted..."

Wang Xi sighed secretly.

"Furthermore, it's completely unclear what the projection has been doing during this time."

At this moment, Caius suddenly sent a prompt.

Wang Xi was stunned for a moment, then a little surprised.

Projection Review

I don't know if it's because of the legendary level, but Caius has gained this new function.

Its format is quite similar to the "retreat preview", and it is also displayed in a slideshow-like manner, but the content is the projection of what was done during the hosting period.

After reviewing, Wang Xi quickly found out what the projection had been doing in the past fourteen days.

Apart from eating and sleeping, he would just wander around and give a few silver coins and a box of matches to the poor beggars on the roadside.

"So dull..."

Wang Xi shook his head and sighed.

He glanced at the wall beside the bed. The bag, once bulging with silver coins, was now almost empty. The matches in the wooden basket beside it were also completely empty.

Wang Xi speculates that the project management's code of conduct is mostly based on his own personality and previous behaviors, and is generally conservative.

I am the type who would rather not do anything than make mistakes.

"If only I could give instructions to the hosted projection..."

As soon as Wang Xi had this thought, Caius in his mind reacted again and gave a hint -

Projection Command

Wang Xi was stunned and couldn't help but smile.

Ahhhh, Caius, you bastard...

Body! Care!
After a brief understanding of this function, Wang Xi was satisfied. Before returning to the main world next time, he could give the projection instructions to have it do something continuously.

Continuous work...

Thinking of this, Wang Xi's eyes suddenly lit up.

Great, it’s a power leveler!

Yes, he planned to let the projection do the card practice for him.

...

...

Wang Xi packed up briefly, stood up and prepared to go downstairs.

dong dong!

He seemed to hear the beating of his heart like a drum in his ears.

Immediately, there was a cold pain in the heart.

"Hiss..." Wang Xi staggered, clutching his chest. His face wrinkled as he gasped in pain.

"This time the Ice Heart Curse has really taken effect!"

He realized something and said to himself.

Wang Xi leaned on the edge of the bed and gasped for breath. It was clearly the middle of summer, but he exhaled cold white air.

This symptom lasted for quite a while.

Only after the palpitations and pain slowly faded away did he stand up again and wipe away the cold sweat from his forehead.

Grit your teeth.

Wang Xi strode out.

After leaving the hotel, he was about to follow the instructions in the "Retreat Preview" to find the so-called Adventurer's Guild and take a look at the situation.

Unexpectedly, a familiar voice called him:

"gentlemen."

Wang Xi turned his head and saw Lillian, the girl in the white dress selling matches, leaning against the wall. She had her head lowered, her slightly messy blonde hair falling across her shoulders.

"you call me?"

Wang Xi walked over and asked.

Lillian didn't look up, but just whispered in a cold and calm tone:

"Why did you give matches to those people?"

Wang Xi thought about it and understood what the other party meant.

It must be because during this period, the hosted projection gave alms every day in the vicinity, and also gave the matchboxes to the poor beggars, which was seen by the girl.

"I'm worried they're afraid of the dark, too."

Wang Xi made up a reason.

The girl Lillian slowly raised her head and looked at him with a strange look, but did not speak.

After a while, he whispered:

"So, do you still want to buy matches today?"

Wang Xi glanced at the wooden basket at the girl's feet. Through the half-open lid, he could see that none of the boxes of matches inside had been sold.

"Buy it." He took out 20 silver coins and handed them over. "But I'm busy right now and may not be back until later. Just give the matches to the inn maid later."

The girl Lillian said nothing.

After she took the handful of silver coins, she counted them carefully and then handed back 10 more.

Wang Xi was puzzled.

"You gave me 5 extra silver coins last time, and you gave me 5 extra silver coins this time too."

Lillian whispered.

"These, I return them to you."

"Did you figure it out after you got home?"

Wang Xi was a little surprised. Could it be that this girl was not a math idiot, but just a little slow?
"Yeah." Lillian nodded, as if it was a matter of course, and said softly.

But then, with a hint of hesitation, she added, "Sophia and Bev helped a little."

Wang Xi couldn't help laughing.

He seemed to see a heartwarming scene: three sisters lighting candles, counting silver coins on the table, and then arguing slightly about whether the money was too much or too little.

"Go home quickly."

Wang Xi smiled and gave some instructions, then turned and left.

The girl lowered her eyes, staring at her toes, and whispered:
"My name is Lillian, what's yours, sir?"

Wang Xi vaguely heard the voice, paused for a moment, turned around and said with a smile: "Gaiyi."
