Chapter 87 Expression Management

Time passed quickly during the experiment, and the data recorded in Yu Cang's hands became more and more.

The epic upper-level summoning took a huge toll on Gu Jieshuang, but after several attempts, although Gu Jieshuang was already extremely weak, his expression was still very determined.

This is witnessing the birth of a summoning method with your own eyes. Who would find it tiring?

Moreover, she was already very satisfied in her heart to be able to stare at Yu Cang who was working diligently at such a close distance and in broad daylight.

When she was in the card-making room, she could only take a peek from behind the door occasionally. It was never as exciting as it is now!

Yu Cang didn't pay attention to Gu Jieshuang's gaze. He was just looking at the data in the computer with a frown.

There must be some relationship between the Bingxin Sword and the required materials.

It seems that these equipment cards all have certain values. As long as the sum of the values ​​of the summoning materials is equal to the value of the Ice Heart Sword, the summoning can be successful.

However, this value is not written in the soul card data, and Yu Cang has no related research in his memory.

At first, Yu Cang thought that this value should be the soul energy consumption, but after comparing several sets of data, he found that the soul energy consumption did not strictly conform to the rules, because the soul energy consumed by Gu Jieshuang when summoning all the summoning materials at the same time was much less than directly summoning the Ice Heart Sword!

This discovery undoubtedly means that this new summoning method has great potential.

"This form of expression is a bit like Synchro Summoning... But Soul Cards don't have star levels, nor do they have similar attributes... Do you want me to create an attribute out of thin air?"

Yu Cang tapped the writing brush lightly with one hand, and the thoughtful look on his face became more and more intense.

"It seems like this is the only way... There should be a certain connection between this attribute and soul energy consumption. This can be seen from the trend of these data sets. As long as we do a few more sets of experiments, we should be able to summarize it into a formula."

Yu Cang was looking at the computer while writing and drawing on the notebook at hand. He said directly, "Jie Shuang, continue. This time, try using the Frost White Sword, the Brave Iron Sword, the Sharp Spear, and the Small Bone Hammer."

"Okay." Gu Jieshuang took a deep breath and took out four equipment cards.

This time, the three equipment cards used as materials are all of very basic and ordinary quality, the kind that even first or second level soul card masters would look down upon.

It will probably fail...

Gu Jieshuang guessed silently in her heart.

After all, according to common sense, the quality of the sacrifice has a great impact on the success of the upper summoning.

But to her surprise, as several green rings appeared out of thin air and flashed by, these pieces of equipment were directly integrated into the Ice Heart Sword!

"This..." Gu Jieshuang's eyes widened slightly.

How could this be? Clearly, the three rare cards failed when used as materials... but when I used the common cards, it succeeded?

How is this done?

"How did you do that?"

Gu Jieshuang was stunned.

How come someone spoke out their thoughts?

When I looked back, I found that Lin Yunqing had been standing at the edge of the test site at some point. He frowned slightly and looked at me with a look full of doubt.

"Hmm?" Yu Cang raised his head. "Which part?"

"Soul Energy Consumption." Lin Yunqing approached, his eyes scanning the computer data. "The combined Soul Energy consumption of the four equipment cards used as sacrifices is completely incomparable to the consumption of directly summoning the Ice Heart Sword. How is this possible?"

Lin Yunqing's heart was already in turmoil.

The scene before her directly shattered her cognition!

You know, although the higher-level summoning can allow the soul card master to activate higher-quality soul cards, from an overall perspective, most of the higher-level summonings are a waste of soul energy!

This has almost become common sense, but the scene happening before our eyes is obviously contrary to this common sense!

"That's normal." Yu Cang's face was calm. "You may not have finished your research yet. If you thoroughly understand the 'Fusion of Darkness and Wood', you'll find that fusion summoning can also save soul energy to a certain extent."

"This..." Lin Yunqing's expression kept changing.

This is unscientific...

No matter how powerful you are, you still have to abide by the law of conservation of soul energy, right?

If Fusion Summon is more cost-effective than Direct Summon... then what's the point of other decks? Doesn't that mean every deck will have Fusion in the future?

Suddenly, Lin Yunqing realized something: "Wait, you mean... the experiment you are conducting now is also a new summoning method?"

"Yes." Yu Cang nodded. "Jie Shuang, continue the experiment. This time, only use the Frost White Sword and the Dragon Tooth Knife."

"Got it!" Gu Jieshuang responded calmly and did as he was told.

However, contrary to her expression, she was secretly delighted in her heart!

Look at this, what an embarrassing expression.

She had to admit that Lin Yunqing's naive look made her feel good!

Although her expression was no different from Lin Yunqing's when she first started the experiment this afternoon...

But at least now, I can keep a straight face!

Normally, Gu Jieshuang is not someone who cares about such things, but after all, Lin Yunqing can be regarded as her "rival in love". She is accustomed to Yu Cang's various magical qualities, but Lin Yunqing is greatly shocked. Isn't such a contrast enough to make people happy?

A strange desire to compare arises!

Thinking of this, Gu Jieshuang skillfully completed the summoning of the Ice Heart Sword again, and ignored the subtle pain in his mind caused by the depletion of soul energy, his expression remained calm.

Lin Yunqing didn't think too much about it, nor did he try to hide his expression. He was shocked.

"The soul energy consumption is still very low this time... How did you do it?"

Yu Cang's eyes didn't move, still fixed on the computer: "If you're interested, I can teach you later. For now, just watch it first."

Lin Yunqing moved her lips, as if she wanted to ask something, but seeing that Yu Cang's brows were slightly furrowed, she tactfully shut her mouth.

Seeing this, Gu Jieshuang felt even better.

Look at that! It's so annoying!

Wake up, how can you possibly compete with me?

"Thaw, cancel the summons. The next group is..."

"Got it." Gu Jieshuang responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

…

Ye Lai lay on Yu Cang's shoulder, looking at the scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth seemed to rise slightly.

The slender tail kept brushing against Yu Cang's back. Ye Lai placed his little head near Yu Cang's collarbone and took a nap quietly.

…

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's stop here for today." Yu Cang breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and smiled at Gu Jieshuang.

"It's okay, I can continue."

"I know you're amazing, but you should take a break." Yu Cang's tone was somewhat admiring. "You're truly remarkable... You've been summoning non-stop for an entire afternoon, and yet you're still managing to maintain your composure. If it were me, I would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago."

"Hehe..." Gu Jieshuang showed a perfect smile.

Tired, of course I am tired, very tired, extremely tired!

It's just ordinary expression management.
