Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World.

Chapter 98 B-Rank Card Magic! Gail's Request!

Compared to A+ rank, Hisoka is so weak.

This reflects both his current strength and his past weakness, when he could only run away with his head in his hands when facing Hisoka and had to rely on bombs for surprise attacks.

To avoid Hisoka coming after him, he had to deliberately avoid places like the Heaven's Arena, which were good for obtaining cards.

Now everything has changed.

In a friendly sparring match, he might not win, but he definitely won't die.

In this life-or-death battle, Hisoka is certain to die.

Even if Hisoka triggers his Afterlife Nen and tries to do sit-ups, Gengar can still show him who his father is.

After a moment of reflection, Lynn casually kicked Hisoka away, sending him to meet the "Kuroro" and "Tompa" from before.

Challenge Successful

[Card Reward: Card Magic (B)]

【Name: Card Magic】

-

[Rank: B]

[Type: Ability Card]

[Background: Fairy Tail]

[Description: A modified version of the card magic of the mage Cana, using psychic energy to create cards for attack. These cards can include ranged attacks and have their power amplified.]

Now he has finally earned the title of "Card Master".

As a card master, how can you be without card basic attacks?

Card magic can create cards that include ranged attacks and slightly increase their original power.

With a thought, Lynn raised his hand and sent out five Nen cards that flew straight into the ground, simultaneously releasing a chilling aura that caused several roses formed from ice to grow.

After some trial and error, he roughly figured out the effects of the card magic. As the description said, the card itself is made of psychic energy and already has a certain strength. In addition, it can also include ranged attacks.

For example, the "Ice Shape Magic" and the "Naval Six Styles" finger gun magic can both be contained in cards.

Even the amplification effect of the [Air Gun Potion] did not disappear.

Because it is essentially still telekinesis and ice magic, just in the form of cards, and its power has been amplified.

However, the cards need to be released by hand, so ranged attacks that are released by foot, such as [Storm Kick], are not included.

Once he becomes more proficient in Armament Haki, he'll probably be able to incorporate it into cards and create Armament Haki cards.

Lynn was already quite satisfied, after all, it was just a card reward from the simulation battle, a B-grade card that was still quite useful, which was quite rare.

Back in the gym, Lynn did her daily workout routine while pondering her upcoming schedule.

I've spent enough time in the Gourmet Paradise. I've collected all the cards I needed and stockpiled a lot of high-end ingredients in Gengar's belly, so I won't be short of them for a while.

Moreover, there's the Food Tree, which provides a fixed amount of food cards.

Overall, he still doesn't have enough cards, especially after obtaining [Fusion], his need for cards has increased to another level.

He needs higher-level cards to match his ever-increasing strength, so he should focus on A-level cards from now on.

The combination of [Divination Tissue] and [Alchemy Synthesis] results in 2C=1B.

[Fusion] requires two B cards to synthesize, and there is only a one-third probability of synthesizing an A card, i.e., 6B ≈ 1A.

Since the effect of "Occupy the Tissue" on B-grade synthesis is currently uncertain, it is not included in this calculation.

This is just a rough theoretical calculation. Probability is hard to predict; it might succeed on the first try, or it might fail eight or ten times.

Therefore, he needs to acquire a large number of cards and build up A-level cards.

He has three reliable sources of cards.

[Food Tree]: Guaranteed two C cards per month. If the food supply is adequate, approximately three C cards and one B card can be obtained.

Card, this request is not difficult, he can fulfill it.

[Yu-Gi-Oh! Deck]: Guaranteed one C-rank card every month, most likely a C or B-rank, with a small chance of an A-rank.

[Long-term food orders]: Guaranteed one B-level card per month.

The [Fantasy Simulation Helmet] is not stable enough, so it is not included.

In theory, he is guaranteed a minimum income of four C-level cards and two B-level cards each month, five of which are food cards.

Assuming you don't use it for food, then you have enough for two [fusions], meaning you have a two-thirds chance of getting an A-rank card each month.

However, you need to wait for the date to draw a "Great Fortune" card to guarantee that you can synthesize a B card from a C card. If you're unlucky, you might have to wait a week or two.

Food cells also need food cards to accelerate their growth; it's impossible to use them all for synthesis.

Furthermore, even if you synthesize a useful B card, it's not suitable for gambling.

Overall, Lynn estimates that he'll be lucky to get one A card every three or four months.

Therefore, we still need to strengthen the two aspects of [location collection] and [defeat collection]. Only by constantly going to new places can we obtain new cards. If we are lucky, we might even get an A card.

After a final week, he headed to the Sky Arena.

Lynn thought to herself.

But a few days later, a phone call from Gail changed his plans.

On a clear, bright day, an airship is flying across the vast sky, preparing to land.

Lynn sat by the window, looking down at the ever-expanding city through the round window, recalling Gail's request from about two weeks ago.

Gail comes from the Kingdom of Reges on the sixth continent. Although the Kingdom of Reges is not one of the V5, it is a well-known country located in the upper left corner of the sixth continent, adjacent to the Republic of Mingbo.

The Sky Arena is located within the Kingdom of Reges.

Amy, one of the princes of the Kingdom of Reges and considered a strong candidate to become the next king, is now plagued by a peculiar death wish for some reason, and his situation is very dire.

Gail is also a member of the royal family and has a close personal relationship with Amy, so she tries every possible way to solve the problem.

However, Amy's mental state was not only death consciousness, but also a special type, which left the royal family at a loss even after consulting several exorcists.

Finally, she pinned her hopes on the ingredients from the legendary Dark Continent in Gourmet Paradise and successfully obtained two fruits to return, but unfortunately, the results were unsatisfactory after the attempt.

Then she thought of Lynn, the exorcist who had shown amazing talent in exorcising death thoughts, and issued a commission to him, offering five billion jin of ni and special exorcism tools as payment.

The reward was secondary; Lynn was also interested in what cards the Kingdom of Reges could generate, so he accepted the commission.

As soon as Lynn stepped off the airship, he was picked up by professionals and put into a car.

Besides the bodyguards, there was also the familiar Biscuit in the car.

Biskey was there to help at Gail's request, mainly as a bodyguard to protect Lynn and Amy.

Secretly, he was curious about the new feature bar that had appeared in his mind.

I wonder what's so special about the Kingdom of Reges, and what kind of cards the trait bars here will yield?

Amy's location was not in the capital, but in an underground base in a second-tier city within the territory, making it extremely well-hidden.

After traveling for some time, he met Amy in a Western-style bedroom, led by Gail and others.
