But Lu Yan felt that his choice was not wrong. His own strength was more important. When he was weak, he should keep a low profile. Strengthening other people's cards on a large scale would easily attract the attention of the strong.
If that time really comes, he will have no control over his own life and may be imprisoned anywhere.
Up to now, he has only strengthened Jiang Jiu and Li Xisheng, and has no intention of forming any power. At least Lu Yan feels that the power of the Card Master World is a complete burden to him.
It would be better to leave the task of building a power to Lamia and others. Once he has the ability to travel through the world, there will still be no need for him to form any organization.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back. I'm resting anyway."
Among all the geniuses gathered from all over Mailong Country, Li Xisheng, whose strength can only be considered "good", naturally would not have the opportunity to participate in all the college competitions and is now on vacation.
Whether you want to further your studies, improve your combat skills or go home, the academy will not interfere and you are very free.
After spending a day with Li Xisheng in Magic City, Lu Yan set off for the overlapping card area [Ghost School]
The Fire God in centipede form came to the vicinity of the card area with great momentum. Quite a number of card masters had already gathered here. When he approached, they all looked over at him.
Most of the card masters who came here to complete the mission were very low-key, at least more low-key than Lu Yan. Some card masters who were a little unhappy to see him being so high-profile, after seeing his face clearly, the momentum they had raised suddenly weakened, and they dared not act rashly in front of him.
Are you kidding? This is the ruthless guy who killed the 6-star card master [Black Smoke Crow]. He also enjoys a great notoriety internationally, but in the end he was defeated by Lu Yan.
Naturally, there were also netizens who mocked and raised objections online, saying that Black Smoke Crow had previously experienced a fierce battle with the local 6-star monster in Magic City, and his actual strength was only one tenth of what it could be, so Lu Yan was able to win.
Card masters with slightly stronger abilities regard these remarks as jokes. Some low-star card masters think that ordinary people are eating lemons, or that they really have IQ problems.
Anyone with an IQ online knows that there is an insurmountable gap between 5 stars and 6 stars——
Oh, someone has crossed over. That’s okay. Don’t mess with this person.
After putting away the centipede, Lu Yan landed and waited for the person in charge of this mission. From the looks of the card masters around him, he deeply realized his own strength and fame, and now he could isolate most of the unknown guys.
About five minutes later, a captain from the Security Bureau came to the fog-shrouded card area. When he saw Lu Yan following the gazes of others, his eyes lit up and he ran over with an expression of trying to get close to him.
The Security Bureau will definitely not just send idle card masters here. Even if the domestic evil organizations have been basically cleared out due to the disaster in Magic City, there still needs to be someone responsible for arranging and deploying temporary workers to prevent them from causing major chaos.
"Mr. Lu Yan, long time no see."
When Lu Yan went to the Security Bureau to complete the record, he had met the captain before, so he smiled and shook hands with him and said his name, without showing any arrogance or pride.
"From grassroots to today's powerful card artists, there's a difference. They're so polite."
Having been accustomed to seeing some strong men, Lu Yan gave him the feeling of being bathed in spring breeze. After chatting for a few words, he flew into the air and used his skills to transmit the official language to everyone's ears.
"I won't waste any more time on small talk. Let me tell you about the situation at the Haunted School. It's been shrinking most of the time lately, but it occasionally expands..."
350
Chapter 350: Such a normal campus life.
The commentator sent by the official explained in detail the precautions of the Ghost School card area. This card area was originally a place that only 1-4 stars could enter. Because it was located in the wild, the occurrence of overlapping incidents was not taken seriously, and no one would get hurt anyway.
Recently, some card masters detected that there were spatial fluctuations in the Ghost School, so they issued a task. The reward was relatively small, but there were still card masters willing to come and complete it.
The main reason why they "do not ask for anything in return" is that the strength of the cards in the overlapping card domain is much greater than that in the normal card domain, and so is their intelligence.
When the overlapping card domain is completely broken, there is a chance to obtain some special cards that are difficult to obtain at their star level. At the same time, the equipment requirements of these high-level and high-star cards will also decrease.
"According to the investigation of the advance team, those who are not strong enough should be careful of certain special rules in the school. They may trigger the ghosts to take targeted actions against you. Of course, those who are strong enough can completely ignore them."
The team leader nodded slightly to Lu Yan. The rules in the card area were similar to some rules and strange stories that Lu Yan had learned in his previous life. Ghosts needed to follow the rules to attack, and people needed to follow the rules to ensure their safety.
But on the other hand, if people are strong enough, they don’t have to be afraid of ghosts. No matter how powerful the ghosts in the card domain are, they must abide by their own rules, which are their conditions for killing.
"This is the map of the Haunted School and its danger level. These are all data from a long time ago. Please be rational when you enter..."
After explaining tirelessly, most of the card masters had already started looking at the map and didn't pay attention to what the captain said. Some of them were veterans who had participated in many overlapping card area destruction operations and had heard the official reminders countless times.
It was Lu Yan's first time participating, so he listened carefully and took the words to heart. After about thirty minutes, the captain finally finished speaking, waved his hand, and signaled everyone to proceed freely. Then he came to Lu Yan and said:
"Mr. Lu Yan, if you can display the strength of a 6-star card master, could you please not use large-scale attacks to completely destroy the card domain? Try to make as little noise as possible."
"If possible, please find the core of the overlapping card area and destroy it. This will automatically eliminate the overlapping area."
When instability appears in the overlapping area, it means that it is most likely condensing or has already condensed the core of the card area.
In a normal card domain, the card domain that has just completed the overlap will not have the so-called core. The internal energy is not condensed. The appearance of fluctuations indicates that something inside is absorbing more power from the card domain.
That would be a very powerful monster or prop. If Lu Yan simply relied on brute force to destroy the entire area, the core items might be severely affected, causing the energy to be redispersed and making the card area stable again.
If you remove the monsters or items and turn them into cards, the overlapping areas that lose a lot of energy will also self-dissipate.
If the core is not resolved, there is a probability that the coverage of the card area will become larger and the internal space will expand again.
"Oh, so that's the setting. I see. Try to use attacks that don't have such a large range."
Lu Yan nodded in agreement, turned around and went into the fog. This action of overlapping the card domain could be considered a journey. How difficult could it be with a card domain with a maximum limit of only 4 stars? At worst, he could just not eat and turn over the table.
Thump~thump~thump~thump, thump~thump~thump~thump~…
When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Lu Yan opened his eyes with a surprised expression and found himself sitting in front of a chair wearing a very traditional school uniform. The chaos and fog in his head were instantly destroyed.
Clenching his fists, he looked around at the ordinary classroom with nearly 40 classmates scattered around.
They did not have the youthfulness and vigor that teenagers should have. They all had gloomy faces, and were panicked and desperate, as if something had happened recently that had completely disturbed them.
"So what happened?"
Tilting his head, Lu Yan rubbed his fingers and looked around to collect information. There was no way to change his thinking, but for Lu Yan, who felt that he was not good at investigation and combining clues, he still had some basic skills.
The computing power of his brain is there, and he has almost unlimited time to think.
A table with many marks on it was placed at the back, as if to deliberately conceal its existence. It was also piled with miscellaneous items, but some of the drawings under the items were clearly visible.
He immediately thought of things like school bullies, leaned back, and focused his attention elsewhere, eventually seeing the "School Rules" on the wall.
【Students are requested to abide by the following rules: ……】
No look! My super brain is telling me to use my super power!
Lu Yan took a quick glance and didn't take it to heart. Instead, he continued to observe his classmates. The students outside the door were making a lot of noise, while the people inside remained indifferent and stiff, constantly doing exercises with pen and paper.
Or if it's an elite class, then it's possible that someone died from excessive stress.
"But why don't I have any relevant memories? Am I blocking it?"
Lu Yan muttered softly. According to the information provided by the captain, after entering this unstable overlapping card area, the card master will become a teacher or student in the school according to his age, and then receive a partial memory about himself.
It doesn't have to be that your real age is under 18, as long as you look like it.
The card master must ensure that he is not discovered as an outsider and pretend to be a "local with simple folk customs". This is the first and most important rule. Of course, it is okay to act secretly.
He did feel a force of energy carrying information trying to penetrate, but he subconsciously blocked it, so he had to conduct an investigation without any information.
Rummaging through his desk, Lu Yan found his student ID and a cell phone. As a high school student, he never expected to bring a cell phone to the elite class. The only explanation was—
His own grades were good enough, so good that the teachers turned a blind eye to him. He remembered that there was such a ruthless person in his school in his previous life, and he didn't carry a mobile phone, but a notebook.
I don't use a laptop to play games at all. I am extremely self-disciplined. I am either looking up information or trying to write a paper.
I tried to open the phone with my fingerprint, and it unlocked smoothly. It was indeed full of information, and there was no relevant recent events.
"Hey, Wang Tao, it's almost time for class, why are you still playing?"
At this moment, his deskmate touched his arm. Lu Yan squinted at his deskmate, who was a short boy wearing glasses, about four or five centimeters shorter than him.
"Look up information, don't bother me. I can't sleep recently, and I want to see if there is any other way."
His gaze was directed towards the table behind him. His unknown deskmate shrank back and said, "Please help me find it too. I'm under a lot of pressure too. I envy you for being able to bring your phone with you."
"Better than me, you can do it too."
He was talking intermittently when the phone rang. Lu Yan closed his phone and looked towards the door. A female teacher with a harsh expression walked in.
351
Chapter 351: The Hierarchy of Ghosts.
'She looks like my stereotype of a bad teacher.'
Lu Yan complained in his heart. The female teacher in front of him was neither fat nor thin, which was a bit uncoordinated. On the other hand, her face looked very...
If you have watched TV dramas, you will know that her face is the type of vicious mother-in-law, with a pouty mouth and a sour look on her face. I just don't know if this teacher's appearance reflects her heart.
After entering the room, she subconsciously glanced at the wooden table piled with clutter, her eyes full of unlucky things, and picked up the chalk and knocked on the blackboard:
"Alright, everyone, focus. This year is the most crucial. Don't let certain people influence you. Remember, your future is the most important thing. Have you finished your exams? Let's move on to the questions..."
To Lu Yan's surprise, there were no problems throughout the entire class as he did not deliberately break the rules and deliberately maintained the rules.
He had been picked by the math teacher to answer questions before, and judging from the expression on her face, she seemed very satisfied with herself.
The next two classes were the same, and in short, the morning passed safely.
According to the current situation, Lu Yan guessed that the identity assigned to each person is related to his or her intelligence and computing power. Academic performance is everything. As long as it is high enough, certain rules do not need to be taken seriously.
This is stated in the [Student Code of Conduct], and the first rule is: For students, academic performance is above all else.
"Isn't the first rule of the teacher's code of conduct similar? Teaching performance?"
As he was daydreaming carelessly, it was almost lunchtime. Lu Yan looked at the time and decided to do something extreme to see how tolerant the teachers would be of him.
Raising one hand, the elderly Chinese teacher looked at Lu Yan with a kind expression: "What's wrong, Wang Tao?"
"Teacher, I want to eat first."
"Go."
One dares to ask, and the other dares to agree. Lu Yan mentioned it casually, and the Chinese teacher agreed lightly. He immediately stood up and left the class he had never left, walking in the empty corridor.
While heading to the cafeteria, Lu Yan glanced at other classrooms. Although they were not as good as the top classes, they were also under great pressure. He also saw several card masters.
Several card masters who were looking around also noticed Lu Yan in the corridor and their eyes widened immediately: Woc, everyone is suffering, why is there someone walking around during class time? Even the teacher can't do it! ?
Some card analysts have become teachers, and they only go between the office and the classroom, and have no time to do anything else.
"Li Wei, what are you looking at? Pay attention!"
A shrill sound that did not sound like a human voice was heard. Lu Yan cast his gaze towards the source of the sound. A student who was not a card teacher broke the rules and stared at "Wang Tao" in the aisle for too long, and was discovered by the teacher.
The teacher instantly turned into a ghost, his disguise removed, revealing his hollowed-out stomach. The teeth around his stomach suddenly swelled, and he swallowed the terrified student into his stomach.
Its strength is not that strong, probably around Bronze 4 stars. If all monsters are of this level, they are quite easy to deal with.
Retracting his gaze, Lu Yan walked past the teachers' office and went straight in to the teacher sitting inside and said, "Teacher, I'm Wang Tao from the top class. I want to borrow our head teacher's computer to look up some information."
"Oh, Wang Tao, your homeroom teacher's seat is over there."
There was still no problem. The teacher in the office smiled and pointed out the location. Lu Yan walked to the computer of the head teacher. Hey, the mean math teacher was the head teacher.
Turning on the computer, Lu Yan looked at the search interface and tried to search for "X City No. 1 Middle School" where he was. Relevant news immediately appeared in it and was ranked high on the search list.
"Senior high school student jumps off building! Is it campus corruption or excessive pressure?" News headlines like these contain no real information at all.
After closing the search interface and clearing away related traces, Lu Yan focused his attention on the desktop and the office as a whole, and saw the teacher's code of conduct on the wall and the overall map of the school.
The first rule of the Teachers' Code of Conduct was what he thought, that is, the principle of strength is the only thing that matters: for teachers, teaching performance is above all else.
Clicking on the computer, Lu Yan looked through the class teacher's communication software to see who she had contacted. Then his eyes lit up and he found the key information.
After taking a few glances, he found that the teacher suddenly stood up and was walking towards this side. Lu Yan was not at all panicked. He calmly closed the information bar that was currently open and packed up the evidence before he came over.
"Lv Yan, what were you checking just now?"
The teacher said sinisterly, and Lu Yan picked up a piece of paper and pen, wrote a math problem, and handed it over: "I've found the solution to this problem."
The English teacher looked at the math problem, and the negative energy emanating from him completely disappeared. After a few glances, his expression was slightly embarrassed, and he clearly didn't understand: "Is that so?"
After saying goodbye to the teacher, he recalled the information he had found on the way to the cafeteria. The student who died in the top class was named Luo Zhusheng. According to the information exchanged between the head teacher and the dean of studies, he jumped off the building and died due to excessive pressure.
But this is just their one-sided statement, and we need to look for other information.
As he was thinking, he followed the map into the cafeteria and frowned at the dishes in front of him.
Damn, these foods really have a bit of a ghost school feel to them. They are all outrageous things, and they still fit his stereotype of high school food, except that this impression is reinforced.
The half-burnt, half-alive fish head was still blinking, but the body was nowhere to be found. Strawberries and garlic were cooked into a pot of unknown substance, sticky and bubbling. The fried chicken looked good, but one piece was cracked and you could see through the crack, and the chicken inside was constantly jumping...
What kind of weird food is this? No, even ghosts wouldn’t eat it.
Looking up at the teachers' cafeteria, Lu Yan left here and entered it, smiling and politely greeting the teachers who came to eat early instead of teaching. When they saw Lu Yan, they smiled and nodded, as if they were used to it.
As for the dishes here, there are so many good ones, and you can even have hot pot. Lu Yan just ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles and sat down. The head teacher actually cared about him and asked him if he was sick for eating so little.
After dealing with the teacher, other students besides Lu Yan also entered the teachers' cafeteria one after another. Most of them were from the top classes, and the others were top students in each class.
