Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

"Young people are just..."

He seemed to be conjuring up some inappropriate image for children, and sighed listlessly, "I understand."

After the head coach left, Yi Lan looked at Luo Bai's profile picture, thinking about the team's situation, and her expression became somewhat melancholy.

"Sigh...we're missing a coach."

...

Water, moonlight, and an endless night.

The Unlimited Realm - The Store of the Past.

"Teacher Tony!"

Luo Bai suddenly opened the shop door and shouted.

"Meow!" The big fat cat was clearly frightened and its fur stood on end.

"Ah—" Luo Bai rushed over and caught it, giving it a good tug. "Long time no see, you fat cat!"

"You didn't tear the house down, did you?"

He looked around the store and at first glance, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

The Rebirth Shop will restrict the entry of the dead and the living during its closure period, but it cannot control the units that are already in the shop. The Rebirth Shop will only dismiss the shop manager when the time comes, and the shop manager can dismiss other units at any time.

The store manager can also choose not to refund.

The prerequisite is sufficient sincerity and trust.

Don't you really want to go out and have some fun?

Luo Bai sat down in the store manager's seat, turned on the computer, and murmured to himself.

“Meow—” Tony replied.

"I was worried you'd be too bored." Luo Bai handed over his phone, pressed a few buttons on it, and said, "Here, this is my new phone. Add whichever cat food you like."

"I heard you're ranked 98th in KC, is that true?"

"Come on, log in to your account, I need to check the goods."

After saying that, he grabbed the big fat cat, scanned its pupils, and logged into the [Meow Meow Meow] account.

"Wow--"

Luo Bai exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the account information.

"Wow, the first silver-headed cat in history."

"You can't handle this 1.04 million yuan prize money, so I'll keep it for you."

He naturally activated the supercomputing ring and withdrew the more than one million gold points from his account.

"Meow?!" Tony protested.

"What are you saying!" Luo Bai said seriously, "Would I, the dignified store manager, possibly steal your money!"

"I went out of my way to trick you into buying four bags of premium cat food."

"I'm heartbroken that you don't trust me at all, Tony."

Tony gave him a suspicious look, then lowered his head and continued playing on his phone.

Luo Bai stared at the computer screen, connected to Yue Long's local area network, and searched for relevant league records. His expression gradually became serious.

"Oh, there really is a BP."

He never imagined that the league here would have a ban/selection process.

This means it's best to have two decks.

He wanted to promote Bian Yuelong, but currently only has one water purifier.

When playing against Shang Yu, the Water Machine made a brief appearance, which has led to it now being banned [a very popular pick].

"I need to get a deck as soon as possible."

"Fifty-five sheets...time doesn't seem to be enough..."

Luo Bai opened the card deck generator and murmured.

In the modern world, the energy cost of making cards is too high. The patterns on the playing cards have their own historical spirituality, and the amount of energy required to [seal] them is several times that of blank patterns.

Making the card at the funeral home would save this cost.

At his efficiency, three hours is only enough to make twenty cards. Including an extra deck of 55 cards, he would have to stay in the shop for three nights. The league starts at 8 pm on Sunday, and today is Thursday, which is exactly three nights.

If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to make it in time.

"But what if guests come..."

The water generator took two nights to make. It was created by the [near-death spirit] controlling Luo Bai's body after the exchange of life and death spirits. It was extremely efficient and accurate, making five minutes of it equivalent to five hours of his work.

"Is there any other way...?"

Luo Bai's gaze swept across the room, and suddenly fell on the "Buy Cards" button, his eyes becoming even sharper.

This enticing deep yellow button.

She looked exactly like a woman beckoning him from the red-light district, her face practically screaming, "Come on, sir!"

If you're lucky, you can finish in ten minutes.

If things don't go well... the rooftop will be exposed to the wind.

"How many packs does it take to complete a deck?"

Luo Bai's thoughts drifted back to his time on Earth, to the time he participated in the Master Duel and the card-drawing game.

"【Fear Peptide】cost me... 12,000 diamonds..."

"One hundred and twenty draws, one pack costs 100,000... twelve million, much more expensive than making cards."

"However, opening packs will give you other cards... unfortunately, they're random."

He pondered for a moment, then asked in the program's AI dialog box, "Can card packs be disassembled and combined?"

The AI ​​quickly gave a positive answer.

【Can】

[Unlock related features after drawing the Extraordinary Card]

Luo Bai nodded slightly, then asked in his soul:

Is there a guaranteed minimum return?

[A guaranteed Super Card will be obtained after 20 packs]

"It's about the same as dueling with a master."

Luo Bai breathed a sigh of relief. This lottery mechanism was challenging, yet it guaranteed a basic return after sufficient investment.

After making up his mind, he resolutely clicked on "Buy Cards".

Soon, a dialog box popped up with a "ding" sound.

[Use 1 carat negative cube to draw 10 packs of cards?]

Upon hearing the message, Luo Bai felt a chill run down his spine and quickly clicked "cancel".

"Can only negative cubes be used for drawing lots?"

"Could we use gold points?"

He quickly opened the AI ​​dialog box to ask a question.

【Can't】

The AI's response was cold and indifferent.

"what--"

A hint of grievance visibly rose in Luo Bai's eyes.

"It's just a waste of a hundred million gold."

Negative cubes can be exchanged for gold points at any time, but to exchange gold points for negative cubes, you need to go to the dungeon and go through some channels.

Based on his initial impression when he transmigrated, the underground city was a mixed bag, a gray area.

His combat strength level is only [Silver], and his only means of survival is [Guard].

Currently, the store account has 1.5 grams of negative crystals remaining. Summoning [Zero Clothes] requires 1 gram, and the remaining 0.5 grams cannot even be exchanged for [Flash]. Fortunately, it can be refined.

"I still have to go."

Luo Bai made up his mind, his eyes flashing with determination.

"Hmm...we need a bodyguard."

...

...

Struggle progress: 3/30

Chapter 179 New Talent Unlocked

A quiet night.

One person and one cat in an empty card shop.

Luo Bai stared at the [Fear Peptide] deck, his hands never stopping the card-making process.

I like many decks.

But [Fear Peptide] has a different meaning for him; it's his first deck.

"Why is it still so expensive even after arriving in this other world..."

[Water Machine] Only [Central Serpent] is an Epic card, so you only need to play it once. [Dreadnought]'s [Nail Dragon Queen] and [Raging Tyrannosaurus Rex] are both Epic cards, so you need to play multiple copies.

It really takes three nights to complete; crafting just one epic card will leave you completely exhausted.
