Ke Jin has been very busy lately.

After knowing the significance of his cards to the military, he made up his mind to ensure a smooth supply of cards in the card pool and to prevent the pool from being closed due to the exhaustion of energy in the Quicksand Bottle in the card refill room.

But after the cooperation began, the military's demand for cards far exceeded Ke Jin's expectations. He even asked the mayor for help and hired all the famous card renewers in Mobis City. He even went into battle himself to barely meet the supply of the card renewing room.

Because he was too busy, he didn't even have time to look at the information about the "Demon King" given to him by Marshal Gani. After all, once he left the card pool, he was so tired that he just wanted to sleep and had no energy to do anything else.

This kind of busyness is only temporary, hold on! - Ke Jin comforted and encouraged himself in this way - in the early stage of cooperation, the military will certainly draw a large number of cards in order to stock up on cards. When the reserves are almost full, the number of soldiers coming to draw cards will definitely decrease significantly...

With this belief, Ke Jin forced himself to work hard in the card renewal room like a diligent little bee, working day and night with many card renewal masters. However, he soon discovered that the number of card draws in the military special in the afternoon did not decrease but increased. The number of people who came to draw cards in the morning also unexpectedly began to rise sharply...

***

Marshal Kless never expected that he would meet his most hated Marshal Efa in the "Spirit Garden" card pool.

Today is the eighth day of the cooperation between the "Spirit Garden" card pool and the military. Marshal Kles, who couldn't bear it any longer after eight days of hard work, finally threw away his face and decided to come to the "Spirit Garden" to draw cards in the morning at the instigation of his friend Marshal Luo Xiu. The draw order refers specifically to the military special in the afternoon, but there is no rule that you can't come to draw cards in the morning. It's just that everyone tacitly accepts that the card pool in the morning is open to civilians, so they consciously only come in the afternoon...

But Ke Jin said in the announcement that the morning card pool is "open to the public"! Anyone can come! Of course they can come too!

——Under Marshal Luo Xiu’s persuasion, Marshal Kles followed him without much struggle.

But after all, they were "taking advantage of a loophole in the rules", so the two were a bit secretive when they entered the card pool courtyard. As a result, when they got to the card drawing area, they found that most of the people queuing in front of them looked very familiar.

Kles & Luo Xiu: "..."

They all sneaked out of the base to draw cards? ?

Looking again, some people in the team even waved to them enthusiastically.

"Clos, Luo Xiu! Are you two here too?"

When Kless and his companions looked over, they found that it was Marshal Rhea from the Virgo Galaxy. They had a good relationship with Marshal Rhea, so they walked over without thinking much. When they got closer, they found that there was an acquaintance standing next to Rhea.

"Oh, it's really lively today. You two are here too?"

When Kless heard this voice, his scalp went numb—it was Marshal Epha of the Scorpio Galaxy, whom he hated the most! He stood in the team with his arms folded, looking at Kless and Luo Xiu with a half-smile.

Kles & Luo Xiu: "..."

What a strange world! Why did I meet this annoying guy?

Unlike the harsh and sharp-tongued Ephaz, Rhea is an honest and simple uncle. He is inherently neutral. Unlike Ephaz, who is diametrically opposed to Crescent and others in political views, when he sees his colleagues, Rhea smiles warmly and friendly.

"Did you two hear that new cards will be released today, so you came here specially to draw cards?" Rhea asked with a smile.

New card released?

Before Cles had time to wonder, Erfa spoke in his usual arrogant tone.

"Drawing cards? Impossible, right?" He glanced at Luo Xiu. "I remember a few days ago, someone was saying that he didn't understand why everyone was so keen on snacks from Lingyuan, and that he couldn't stand us eating snacks here... Is that right, Marshal Luo Xiu?"

Marshal Luo Xiu had indeed made such remarks before eating the spicy strips. Now he wished he could take a time machine back to the past and shut up the mouth of himself who "didn't know the taste of spicy strips". However, slapping oneself in the face and being slapped in the face by one's enemy are two different things, Luo Xiu snorted and argued.

"We are here for something more important... Kless feels very guilty about the fight between his men here before, so he came here specially to apologize to Envoy Kejinka."

Kless, who was caught in the crossfire, said: "..."

"Oh, really?" Erfa immediately turned his gaze to Kles. "It's been ten days since the incident. You're only thinking of apologizing now? Oh, you're really sincere."

You talk as if you weren't involved, but there were people from your Scorpio galaxy involved in that fight too!

But Kles, who had experienced many "verbal battles", knew that once this topic was brought up, he might not be able to get a good result from Erfa. Moreover, he came here today only for the spicy strips and did not want to cause trouble. So, like Luo Xiu, he snorted coldly, turned his head, and left Erfa with a cold sneer on his back.

"I see..." Rhea nodded thoughtfully, "The Sagittarius and Leo galaxies have always liked spicy food. I thought you guys came here for the 'spicy chips' too."

Kless and Luo Xiu turned their heads back immediately, thinking they had concealed it well, but in fact everyone could see their inner enthusiasm and eagerness: "Spicy chips? What spicy chips?"

"It's the new card that will be released today, an upgraded version of spicy strips." The sincere Marshal Rhea answered honestly, "Because spicy strips are very popular, many people hope that Envoy Ke Jinka will release some similar snacks, so he launched it temporarily... I heard that the taste is as good as spicy, but the portion will be much larger, and it will be more satisfying to eat." He swallowed as he spoke, and it was obvious that he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"But because it's a new card, the production is limited. It's only available in the morning on the first day." Rhea pointed to the long line, "Most people are here for this."

"That's right." Erfa suddenly said, pointing to the door, "So if you two are not here to draw cards, just go out and turn right back to the base, and give the opportunity to more people who like the spicy snacks series."

Who would leave? We like you as much as anyone here!

"Now that we're here, we might as well try our luck," said Kless shamelessly.

"That's right." Marshal Luo Xiu, who was very proud, tried his best to save his dignity. "And... and who knows what the quality of the new cards is like? We have an obligation to inspect them first and check the quality."

"The quality of the cards in my card pool has always been very good." A voice suddenly came from behind, "The quality is absolutely up to standard, please rest assured."

The four of them turned their heads and saw a handsome young man with black hair and black eyes standing behind them. Although he had never seen him in person, after seeing his photo, Kless recognized him at a glance - it was the current owner of the "Spirit Garden" card pool, Ke Jin Card Envoy.

Ke Jin had just come out of the card renewal room to take a walk when he noticed a small commotion here, so he walked over to take a look and happened to overhear the conversation of the four marshals.

Marshal Efa and Marshal Rhea both came to "Spirit Garden" to draw cards a few days ago. They had communicated with Ke Jin at that time, so Ke Jin naturally recognized them. As for the other two unfamiliar faces, although he had never seen them before, judging from their conversation, they should also be marshal-level figures.

"Good morning, Mr. Ke." Rhea greeted Ke Jin cheerfully, "We are here to bother you again."

Upon seeing Ke Jin, Marshal Erfa, who had originally been harsh in words and had an arrogant expression, relaxed his expression and exchanged a few words with him with a smile, which made Kles and Luo Xiu extremely jealous - these guys actually have such a good relationship with Envoy Ke Jin... Damn, if they had ranked higher in the draw, they would be the ones chatting and laughing with Envoy Ke Jin now!

After greeting Erfa and the others, Ke Jin turned his gaze to the other two.

"This is Marshal Kless of the Leo Galaxy, and this is Marshal Luo Xiu of the Sagittarius Galaxy." Rhea kindly introduced them, "Uh, they are here for..."

"I apologize to Mr. Coca for the previous fight." Marshal Erfa took the initiative to take over the conversation, and then looked at Kless and smiled. "You can take it out now."

"Ah?" Kless felt a chill run down his spine at Erfa's ulterior motive, and had no idea what he was planning.

"You came to apologize with only your mouth?" Erfa raised his eyebrows. "Where is the apology gift?"

Kless: “…”

How could he bring such a thing! He didn't bring anything except enough star coins to draw cards...

Knowing that he had fallen into the trap set by that bastard Erfa, Kless choked for a moment. Marshal Luo Xiu beside him suddenly took out a card and handed it to Kless: "Here, you can give the gift that you kept with me to Envoy Coca now."

He actually paid out of his own pocket to help me save my reputation... He is indeed my reliable brother! !

Kless took the card gratefully, glanced at it, was stunned, subconsciously looked at Marshal Luo Xiu again, and handed the card to Ke Jin.

"Envoy Coca, I'm really sorry for what happened before. This is a little gift from me, I hope you can accept it." Kless said sincerely.

Ke Jin didn't take what happened before to heart at all. Just as he was about to refuse, Erfa had already taken the card for him. After taking a look at it, he stuffed it directly into Ke Jin's hand.

"Envoy Koka, please accept it." Erfa stopped smiling and looked more serious. "You should be able to use it."

Hearing the deep meaning behind Marshal Erfa's words, Ke Jin immediately took a closer look at the card in his hand. This was a card with a light green glow. After reading the description on the back of the card, Ke Jin was slightly surprised - this was actually a high-star ability card, which could help the owner of the card offset a life-threatening disaster. This was a very practical card for him who was facing the threat of the "Demon King".

"Thank you, Marshal Kress." Ke Jin hurriedly thanked him solemnly. Although the other party said that this was an "apology gift", it was a very valuable gift after all. Ke Jin felt a little guilty to accept it directly. He thought about it and asked.

"Are you all here today to draw new cards?"

"They are not," Erfa laughed, "Rhea and I are."

Both Kless and Luo Xiu's faces turned red, and they wanted to refute fiercely, but the words they said before were still fresh in their minds. The two marshals could not bring themselves to be laughed at by their mortal enemy, so after holding it in for a long time, they could only say "hmm" in frustration.

“Oh, I see.”

Ke Jin was a little disappointed. After all, if the other party didn't come to draw cards, it would be a bit difficult to return the gift to them today. He could only turn to Marshal Efa and Marshal Rhea as the second best.

"Today's new card release is limited. Although I adjusted the probability, as you can see, there were a lot of people who came to draw cards this morning. Your chances of winning may still be relatively low."

Erfa had some guesses and looked at Ke Jin with interest: "So?"

"We are preparing to open a new card drawing area. A batch of new cards have been released there. If you draw cards from the new card pool, the probability of getting new cards may be higher." Ke Jin lowered his voice, "Because it is not fully prepared yet, the new card drawing area has not been announced to the public yet. I can take you there to draw cards, but it must be kept confidential."

There is actually such a good thing!

When Cles and Luo Xiu heard this, they almost jumped up. Seeing that Erfa and Rhea were about to leave with Ke Jin, they hurriedly followed them.

"Why are you two following us?" Erfa turned his head and looked at them, smiling, "Aren't you guys not going to draw new cards?"

The two ignored Erfa and just looked at Ke Jin with longing eyes.

Ke Jin: “…”

Uh, he seemed to see... tears in the eyes of these two marshals?

Haha, it turns out that I was hallucinating because of working overtime for too long. How could the two marshals be crying because they couldn’t draw new cards!

…

Oh my god, there were tears...these two actually shed tears? ?

Kles & Luo Xiu: We are really in such a difficult situation...
