It was supposed to be a Mythic card set, but what the heck is this Warhammer 40k?

The two figures were a man and a woman.

The man was impeccably dressed in a suit and looked very elegant, while the woman was disheveled and had messy hair, looking like a beggar.

The beggar woman glanced in the direction Lu Ya had left and sneered, "Such a sharp mind. I almost got caught. This guy is no ordinary person, and he's even from the Card Master Alliance. Should we take care of him beforehand?"

The woman's voice was rough and hoarse, like a piece of sandpaper constantly rubbing against the ground.

Upon hearing the woman's words, the man in the suit rolled his eyes and took a deep breath.

"How many times have I told you? How many times have I told you? Your current identity is that of a member of the Ideal State!"

"Stop thinking about fighting and killing all the time. Do we look like those bloodthirsty maniacs who kill at the slightest provocation?"

After being reprimanded by the man in the suit, the beggar woman remained silent for a moment, then tilted her head and asked, "Ah, isn't that right?"

Upon hearing the beggar woman's words, the man in the suit covered his face and sighed helplessly.

The man in the suit then said, "From now on, you are not allowed to kill anyone without my order. Only those brainless lunatics from the Starry Sky Society would do something like that!"

"We are people with ideals and ambitions, don't treat us like we're crazy, are you OK!"

The beggar woman stared at the man in the suit for a long time, finally nodding reluctantly: "I understand. So, should we kill him or not?"

The man in the suit finally regained his composure and said calmly, "Don't kill him, just let him go."

The beggar woman frowned and asked, "Aren't you going to do anything about it? You went through so much trouble to raise this monster, and that guy killed it so easily. Aren't you angry?"

The man in the suit smiled and said, "It's just a pollution-level monster. What's there to be angry about? Besides, the purpose of raising this monster was simply to test whether my method would work."

"Now that the experiment has been successful, the monster's mission is complete. There's no point in keeping it alive, so killing it is fine."

"What we need to do now is use this method to create Him, and then welcome His coming!"

"Once He descends into this world, we will be able to establish the kingdom of our dreams!"

"Hahahaha...!"

The man in the suit was laughing when he suddenly realized that he was the only one laughing hysterically, while the beggar woman was still staring at him expressionlessly.

This puzzled the man in the suit: "Why aren't you smiling? Aren't you happy about His arrival?"

The beggar woman scratched her messy hair and muttered, "You know I haven't read many books, so I don't understand what you're saying."

"Besides, the boss sent me here to kill people. How can I be happy if you don't let me kill people?"

After hearing this, the man in the suit remained silent for a long time, then sighed deeply: "It's really pointless to talk to you."

"I really don't know what the organization was thinking, sending you here to assist me."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you. Let's go. The people from the Card Master Alliance are coming. It's not the right time for us to get into a conflict with them."

...........

He didn't get home and go to sleep until after 4 a.m. last night.

So when Lu Ya woke up today, it was already past noon.

After a quick wash, Lu Ya picked up his phone and called Jiang Beiling.

After more than half a minute of dialing, the call was finally connected. Jiang Beiling's yawning voice came from the other end of the line, indicating that she had just woken up not long ago.

Lu Ya didn't waste any words and went straight to asking about what happened yesterday.

"How's the investigation going? Did you find anything wrong?"

Jiang Beiling didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Why are you so concerned about this matter?"

Lu Ya shrugged and replied, "It's not out of concern, just pure curiosity."

Jiang Beiling couldn't help but complain, "Tsk, your curiosity is really something else. I suggest you try to control it."

"As a card player, being too curious is not a good thing. I have seen many card players get killed by their curiosity."

Lu Ya pouted: "That's none of your concern. Why don't you tell me about the hospital?"

After venting her frustrations, Jiang Beiling got back to the main topic.

"We have investigated the matter of the strange tree with human heads in the abandoned hospital. Just as you guessed, the strange tree with human heads did not appear naturally, but was intentionally cultivated by someone."

"Just as I thought!" Lu Ya thought to himself.

He then asked, "What about other aspects?"

Jiang Beiling replied, "The cultivation method is very likely related to the corpses buried under the tree."

"As for who cultivated this strange tree with the human head, and what their purpose was in doing so, we are currently unaware of that."

"The identities of the bodies buried under the trees are still under investigation."

Lu Ya stroked his chin and then concluded, "Overall, there's been absolutely no progress, right?"

Jiang Beiling clapped her hands: "Yes, that's a very accurate summary."

Lu Ya grinned: "Is this something to be proud of?"

Jiang Beiling stuck out her tongue: "You can't say that. After all, only a few hours have passed since this matter was discovered until I took over."

"What can you expect me to find out in just a few hours? You have to give me some time, don't you?"

Lu Ya scratched his head. He felt that what Jiang Beiling said was not without reason. How could there be a result so quickly after only a short time?

Jiang Beiling said with a grin, "Alright, I won't say any more. I'll let you know when there's any new information. I have to go to work now. I only asked Captain Zhou for half a day off today."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ya scratched his head and sighed helplessly.

It seems that this matter will not have any results in the short term.

Lu Ya could only suppress his curiosity and temporarily put aside the matter of the Human Head Tree. With nothing else to do, he opened his phone again and began browsing the Card Master Forum.

The card trading forum was the same as always, filled with either various trading posts and requests for help, or people venting about the terrible things they encountered at work.

Lu Ya also scrolled down, looking for posts that interested him.

Suddenly, a trading post caught Lu Ya's eye.

"Trading post: Selling one purple resource card. Interested parties please DM me!"

Upon seeing this post, Lu Ya sat up abruptly, a look of surprise flashing across his face.
