My exclusive card pool

Chapter 81 Deck Upgrading
Wang Xi lay on the sofa, playing with the new card.

After a while.

He discovered something.

The image of "Bangbangtang" is still etched in my mind!
It originally belonged to "Blueberry Flavored Coating (Ultimate)," and after two synthesiss, it has now been inherited by "Sugar Water Lord."

So, can the brand be passed down through generations as it's synthesized?

Wang Xi stared at the ceiling, blinking as he thought to himself.

However, he had a feeling that this inheritance was not 100% successful, and that it might be related to the degree of compatibility.

If the newly synthesized card has a low compatibility with the mark, the mark may disappear.

Wang Xi closed his eyes again.

He carefully assessed the condition of "Tidal Blade" and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

really.

It also benefited from the "Sugar Water Lord's" buff, resulting in an increase in both its attack range and power.

To describe it in detail, it's like having the effect of a dark green one-star character but with the power of a dark green two-star character.

The basic system has been completed.

Wang Xi felt that his combat power had improved to a new level compared to before the assessment.

"It's done."

He sat up and glanced at the clock on the wall.

It's 2:30 PM now.

"It's time to go to the fairytale world."

Wang Xi poured himself a glass of water and drank it all in one gulp.

bang.

He put down his water glass and fell asleep on the sofa.

I plan to wait until the projection is synchronized before using the experience points stored in my mind to upgrade the cards.

We'll see how much it can improve.

He was looking forward to it.

...

...

A fairytale world.

Kingdom of Stag, Daphneel.

Inside a private room on the second floor of the "Wild Boar Snoring in the Rye Grove" hotel.

The morning light shone through the branches onto the simple windowsill, casting shimmering patches of light. Birds chirped and fluttered by.

wow——

The black-haired youth sat up with a swift movement.

He looked around but didn't see Pinocchio. He wondered where the guy had gone off to play again.

"Has it been twenty days since then?"

Wang Xi murmured to himself.

He quickly focused his attention on his mind and reviewed the "projection review".

During this period of time, Projection worked diligently and conscientiously, staying in the hotel to practice his card skills except for going downstairs to eat and take a shower.

In his past life, Gao would have been a top-tier game booster at a professional gaming studio. With that level of dedication, he would have been incredibly successful.

However, I'm afraid that the elementary school student might block me and run away with all their hard work, making weeks of effort go to waste.

Wang Xi didn't go that far.

He'll definitely go to the bathhouse and let the maids treat him to a good meal...

Power leveling is really tough.

It's all thanks to my hard work and sweat.

After synchronizing, Wang Xi reviewed the card information in his mind, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

Before returning, he issued new instructions, telling the projection to focus on practicing the three most important cards, and they have made considerable progress in all of them:
Moonlight Breathing Technique (Technique Card/Blue 1-Star): 120/400

Bloody Knight (Skill Card/Dark Green 1-Star): 135/300

"Tidal Blade (Skill Card/Dark Green 1-Star): 90/300"

Wang Xi then checked the other cards.

"Sugar Water Lord" inherits some of the experience points from the old cards, and now starts at "40/300".

However, thanks to his clumsy actions during that interview in the main world, "Pinocchio's Heart" suddenly skyrocketed to "201/1000".

In fact, Wang Xi had summarized a pattern a long time ago.

The experience points required to upgrade cards seem to be related to their quality. The higher the quality, the more experience points are needed to start.

This amount is in units of 100.

For example, the first star upgrade for a white card costs 100, for a green card 200, for a dark green card 300, and for a blue card 400...

After each star upgrade, the value increases by 100 each time.

Through this pattern, Wang Xi also deeply understood that the 1000 experience points required to upgrade the unique black cards "Chekhov's Spear" and "Pinocchio's Heart" proved how precious they were.

'Next, it's time to utilize the experience base.'

Wang Xi pondered.

His first target was naturally the foundational technique card, "Moonlight Breathing Method".

"280 experience points consumed (1890 remaining)"

Ding!
The breathing technique has been upgraded from blue one-star to two-star!

A burst of blue light shone brightly in Wang Xi's mind!
He sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed.

"hiss--"

With his white teeth closed and lips slightly parted, he inhaled a large stream of air. His strong pectoral muscles expanded with his chest, making him appear to swell up.

Gum.

His muscles bulged, and some inconspicuous muscle groups were trembling at a high frequency with extremely subtle amplitude.

"呲-"

Wang Xi exhaled sharp and long breaths of air from the corners of his mouth, and then opened his eyes, a sharp glint in them.

My body felt like a deflated balloon, but it slowly returned to normal.

But only he himself knew that his body had become stronger.

They've become much stronger.

If we quantify it, then the combined physical fitness of strength, agility, and endurance would probably increase from 10 to 15.

This is an incredibly dramatic increase!
Furthermore, based on the characteristics of the "Moonlight Breathing Technique," it also increased Wang Xi's upper limit of magical energy capacity.

Then the problem is coming.

What if Wang Xi has no magic power at all?
He's nothing but a lowly barbarian with no mana bar!
Therefore, if we look at it from a data perspective, it's roughly equivalent to the non-existent blue bar going from "0/10" to "0/12".

Wang Xi carefully felt his body growing stronger. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

As expected of a blue-quality skill card, each star upgrade is roughly equivalent to upgrading a white-quality "Rendall Body Tempering Method" to "Ultimate".

'continue. ’

He glanced at the experience pool and allocated a portion of it to the "Bloody Knight," a weapon primarily used for melee combat.

"165 experience points consumed (1725 remaining)"

This card has been upgraded from one star (dark green) to two stars!
Swordsmanship, hand-to-hand combat, crossbowmanship, and horsemanship have been further improved, especially advanced skills and characteristics such as armor penetration, decapitation, parrying, and counter-attack, which have been enhanced.

If you don't use any other cards, you can have a one-on-one life-or-death battle with the Witcher Colin. The improvement is that it would take about ten minutes to kill the opponent, but now it would only take seven or eight minutes.

'Next up is the water magic deck.'

Wang Xi thought to himself, and then upgraded the stars of "Sugar Water Lord" and "Tide Blade".

"260 experience points consumed (1465 remaining)"

"210 experience points consumed (1255 remaining)"

Both of these cards have been upgraded from one-star dark green to two-star!
"Try it!"

Wang Xi was filled with excitement and couldn't wait.

He raised a hand.

Open your five fingers.

Gurgling——

I could faintly hear the sound of flowing water.

A ball of water the size of a fist quickly condensed in his palm and began to shake.

But with a little control from Wang Xi, it instantly stopped moving, looking like a still crystal ball.

With a flick of the index finger.

The water sphere then began to writhe violently, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into the shape of a dagger.

He continued to manipulate things.

The water dagger then transformed into a small round shield, an apple, a sea urchin, a squirrel...

Wang Xi can even manipulate water squirrels to run and jump, making them look incredibly lifelike.

Any wizard who saw this would be utterly astonished. Not only could ordinary wizards not do it, but even those magical creatures naturally affinityd with water, such as mermaids, sirens, and land turtles, couldn't do it…

This level of control over water elements is almost inhuman; even the three witches would probably be amazed and call him a monster.

'Although I can manipulate water and shape it into anything I want, its strength is far inferior to the three specific forms: "Arrow," "Throwing Knife," and "Jellyfish Cannon."'

Wang Xi thought.

He knew this was due to the influence of the old card used as a synthetic material.

汩！
Wang Xi clenched his fist and raised it upwards.

The water sphere transformed into a blue, translucent jellyfish, hovering in mid-air, pulsating and contracting, sometimes transforming into an arrow shape, sometimes into an umbrella shape.

It seemed to control the water from thin air, circling around Wang Xi several times.

Snapped!
Wang Xi suddenly snapped his fingers.

The jellyfish instantly expanded, spreading out like an umbrella, forming a hemispherical barrier in front of him. Furthermore, the water element crystallized at a visible speed, transforming into azure hard candy.

"sharp."

Wang Xi was satisfied and full of praise.

With a wave of his hand, the saccharified jellyfish in mid-air collapsed into dazzling dust that scattered.

As for the "Tidal Blade," which had been enhanced several times, Wang Xi did not test it.

Because he has an intuition.

If I were to use it myself, I'd probably make a mess of the hotel... and there's even a risk of it collapsing.

'Let's leave it at that for now.'

Wang Xi said secretly.

He decided to keep the little over a thousand experience points for now, just in case.

Anyway, it can be used anytime.

...

...

After one hour.

Pinocchio is back.

Wang Xi obtained an important piece of information from him.

A few days ago, a court herald, accompanied by a group of guards, posted notices in the squares, streets, and churches of Daphneel, announcing the day of Queen Siana's wedding.

Just two weeks later, on the Sabbath, which is the Sunday of the week.

Fortunately, we made it in time.

Wang Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

If we had lingered a few more days in the main world before returning, Daphne would probably have been reduced to ruins...

"Time is running out, Kai."

Pinocchio scratched his head and said.

"What are we going to do next?"

"Let's go." Wang Xi patted the boy's shoulder and strode out. "To find my three good sons."

"what?"

Before sunset.

Wang Xi, accompanied by Pinocchio, waited for Minister Ando, ​​Coin Keeper Dick, and Apothecary Marco in a private room on the second floor of the "Mad Woman" tavern.

Twenty days later, when they met again, they still treated Wang Xi with the utmost reverence, kneeling before him and performing the ritual of kissing his shoes.

However, Wang Xi keenly sensed that there was a slight abnormal fluctuation in the eyes of the three people, and their expressions showed a struggle.

'It seems the candy's effect is wearing off.'

He suddenly understood.

To ensure the operation went smoothly, Wang Xi did not hesitate to take out the "Sweet Words Jar" and take out the last three candies left in the jar, one for each person as a reward.

Ando and his two companions were once again firmly under control.

And the blue item card "Sweet Talk Jar" finally completed its mission, disappearing into blue light with a hum.

"Ando, ​​the three of you find a way to contact the Queen and arrange a secret meeting between me and her as soon as possible."

Wang Xi said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Master Gului."

The three men nodded and bowed respectfully in agreement.

But just as Wang Xi was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

"Never mind." A thoughtful look flashed in Wang Xi's eyes as he turned around and said, "To avoid any unforeseen complications, you two will provide cover, and I'll infiltrate the palace tonight!"
