I Opened Card Pools All Over the Universe

Ke Jin transmigrated to a world filled with gacha pools. Penniless, he possessed a dilapidated small gacha pool and was bound to a "Gacha Pool Management" system.

System: "Your mi...

Chapter 69 Confrontation

Qi and Oloy rushed back to Su Yufeng's card pool at the same time.

Ke Jin had already sent them a message, so when the two met in the yard, they didn't bother to say anything and immediately entered the card pool from the card drawing area.

Just like last night, Ke Jin was sitting next to the crystal sand pool in the card pool hall. Although the crystal sand pools of the second and third card pools were still not filled with energy, judging from the faint glow flickering at the bottom of the pools, they were no longer "dry" in the state of abandoned pools, but there was temporarily not enough energy to be injected - as long as someone came to draw cards, the crystal sand pools would still slowly accumulate new energy.

"You really succeeded?" Qi was very surprised, "How did you do it?"

"It was done with a little trick." Ke Jin looked at Ou Nuo calmly, then smiled warmly at Qi, "Do you think I will never succeed? Is that person so powerful and invincible in your heart?"

"That's not the case, it's just..."

Qi's voice suddenly stopped, because he realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. When he looked at Ke Jin again, he saw that the other party had a blank expression on his face. Ou Nuo on the side also narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice.

"You really know the inside story."

Qi's pupils narrowed slightly, and he suddenly understood why Ke Jin had deliberately sent him away today. It turned out that the other party had suspected him for a long time?

Although Qi didn't think he would stay here for long, when he saw that Ke Jin's eyes had become alert and even contained a hint of disappointment when looking at him, Qi felt a strange emotion in his heart, and he felt so suffocated that he had difficulty breathing.

"Is it true that no matter what I say now, you won't believe it?" Qi asked.

Ke Jin shook his head and sighed: "I just want to know why you kept it from us."

"Everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell others. I have some, but don't you?" Qi looked at Ke Jin, then glanced at Ou Nuo, "Isn't this kid the same? He hasn't been completely honest with you either. Why do you only ask me to tell you everything I know?"

"Stop stirring up trouble here," Oroi said coldly. "We have never asked about your background before, but today's incident is completely different from the insignificant concealment in the past. Let me ask you - are you and that guy in the same group? Who is he?"

As the boy spoke, he stretched out his finger without any concealment, with a glowing card between his fingertips. Qi guessed that this activated card should have the function of a lie detector, and the other party was blatantly trying to "judge" him.

"If you don't want to answer, you can leave at any time." Ke Jin stood next to Ounuo, and the two of them and Qi were already in a standoff. "I won't stop you. Of course, if you want to take Xiaoju away, that's totally fine."

If it were a day ago, as a high-level card spirit with a high self-esteem, Qi would have turned around and left without saying a word, but now, he was unwilling to just leave like that - he really didn't expect Ke Jin to win the battle with that person, which he thought was completely impossible. Was it because Ke Jin was the Chosen One? But in the past, many Chosen Ones were buried in the Thirteenth Galaxy.

He won't leave until he figures this out.

"Of course I am not in the same group with that person." Qi said frankly, "As for who he is... Believe me, Ke Jin, the less you know, the safer you will be. I will not harm you."

"But I have already provoked him." Ke Jin shook his head helplessly, "Now the less I know, the more dangerous it is, so I must know his origins and why he took action against Su Yufeng's card pool."

Then Ke Jin briefly recounted the two times he had heard the other party's voice, and also spoke frankly about how he and Ounuo had teamed up to "trick" the other party. The more Qi listened, his eyes widened. After Ke Jin finished speaking, he was stunned for a long time before he spoke again.

"How dare you do this..." Qi muttered, "You don't even understand his power, yet you dare to rashly anger him? Aren't you afraid that your plan will go wrong and you will lose your life?"

"Is it that serious?" Ke Jin was also stunned.

"Ignorance is really fearless..." Qi Wu complained, "Okay, I understand why you are so eager to get his information. After all, you have angered him this time, and it is really difficult to make peace. But the information I can provide you is also very limited, because..." He paused slightly, "Because I have a large part of my memory missing, and I don't remember a lot of things."

Ke Jin immediately looked at Ounuo. The boy glanced at the polygraph card in his hand and nodded slightly - Qi was not lying.

"Then tell me what you can remember at the moment." Ke Jin compromised.

"Actually, I mentioned him to you once." Qi smiled sarcastically, "Do you remember you asked me why I instantly felt strong hostility towards you when I first drew an SSR card with divination inscriptions from your card pool?"

Ke Jin recalled carefully: "I remember you said at that time... you once drew a similar card from a card user's card pool. You had a grudge against that person and mistakenly thought that I was related to him, so you took your anger out on me." Ke Jin said slowly, "You also said at that time... the other party had no name, only a well-known nickname, called 'Demon King'?"

Qi nodded: "That's right, but these words are partly made up by me - the 'Demon King' does exist, but he is not a card master, nor a card spirit... To be honest, I don't know what he is. I have never even seen him - at least I don't have such memory. I only know that I must stay away from him. He is very dangerous - both to card masters and card spirits."

"Then how do you know that the situation in Su Yufeng's card pool is related to him?" Ke Jin immediately asked, "Is it because of the black mist and black silk?"

Qi's expression suddenly became a little subtle, and he shook his head: "It was when you failed to make a card for the first time that I began to doubt it. Although I can't see those things, I can vaguely sense them. Moreover, I personally saw a card pool being destroyed by the Demon King's 'devouring'. At that time, there was also a Chosen One who tried to save it, but that Chosen One failed and was dying. The situation he described to people before he died was exactly the same as the scene you saw when you failed to make a card, so... I suspected that the Demon King did it this time as well."

Ke Jin couldn't help but gasp. It seemed that he was too careless. Although he won by chance this time, if he met him again in the future, the result would be hard to say. No wonder Qi had been persuading him to give up card making. He was probably afraid that he would repeat the mistake of the Chosen One who died unfortunately.

"If the 'Devil' appears, will you be able to sense it?" Ke Jin asked.

"That depends on what he does." Qi shrugged. "If he just absorbs the energy from the card pool from a distance, I might not notice it. But if he attacks you personally, I should be able to detect it."

Ke Jin asked a few more questions, and Qi Du answered them truthfully one by one. Unfortunately, apart from knowing that the "Devil King" was currently missing and his strength seemed to be limited, there was no other more effective information.

"It would be nice if I could know more about him." Ke Jin said disappointedly. He didn't even know where the "demon king" was, and he would have to open card pools all over the universe in the future. If he ran into him, wouldn't it be like a narrow road for enemies to cross, and he would be courting death!

"Although I can't remember, some people should know a lot of information about his past." Qi suddenly said, "You have heard of the 'Ten Years of Chaos' in the Twelve Star Systems of the Federation, right? That chaos was actually related to the 'Demon King', but the relevant information has been blocked. Only the military leaders of the Twelve Star Systems of the Federation have the detailed intelligence at that time. I guess the 'Demon King's' current limited strength and disappearance is also related to the chaos at that time."

Qi was not wandering aimlessly over the years. In order to complete his memory, he had been working hard to collect information related to the "Devil King". However, even though Qi possessed supernatural powers, the military high-ranking officials of the twelve galaxies were not pushovers. It was difficult for him to approach them, let alone seduce and test them. Therefore, the information he could provide to Ke Jin was very limited.

"The military leaders..." Ke Jin's brows knitted into knots - with his current position, he couldn't get in touch with people at that level. Even if he worked hard to open card pools all over the Federation galaxy, those iron-blooded soldiers would never think of being the kind of people who would come to his card pool to eat snacks! This way of getting information might not work...

"Okay, let's leave it at that." Ke Jin sighed helplessly. Since he had no clue, he could only take it one step at a time. Compared to the danger that might erupt at any time, it was more practical to focus on the things in front of him. "If you find any more information about the Demon King, please tell me."

"Hmph." Although Oloyi was not happy with Ke Jin for letting Qi off like that, judging from the polygraph card, Qi was indeed not hiding anything. Since Ke Jin would not investigate further, he had no right to continue to hold on to it.

Qi also breathed a sigh of relief. He actually had a good impression of Ke Jin and did not want to make enemies with him. Moreover, he was the only person he had seen who had fought against the "devil" and escaped unscathed. Rather than becoming a stranger, he hoped that he could become his true "ally".

Ke Jin walked up to Qi, took out the still-ball-shaped Xiaoju from his pocket and handed it to him: "Xiaoju has been like this since I made the card. Is there something wrong?"

Qi quickly took it and checked it, and his expression soon relaxed: "It's nothing serious, it may be too tired. This has happened several times before. It will wake up when it gets enough sleep."

"That's good." Ke Jin also breathed a sigh of relief and took out the pitch-black card again. "This card appeared together with the fruit card I made. Do you know what this card is? Is it related to the 'Demon King'?"

Qi looked at it carefully and shook his head in confusion. Ke Jin handed the card to Ounuo again. The boy looked at it several times. With his knowledge of many card pools, he had never seen a similar card. Oloy even tried to read the card, but the card still had no reaction.

"I don't feel any threat for now." Oroi said, "But if you are worried, just destroy it."

"Yeah." Ke Jin nodded, "I'll observe it for a while. If I feel something is wrong, I'll destroy it immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light suddenly appeared in the card pool hall, and two figures appeared in the hall in an instant. One of them was Uncle Zhou, and the other was Su Yufeng.

Su Yufeng's card pool has not been open to the public these days, and he has stayed at his home in the city and has not been to the card pool. In order to hide what he was going to do, Ke Jin did not give Uncle Zhou access to the card pool. Uncle Zhou understood this, but he still came to the card pool yard every day. After Ke Jin successfully made a card tonight, he immediately sent a message to Uncle Zhou, asking him to bring Su Yufeng over.

"Xiao Ke, we are here."

Uncle Zhou nodded to Ke Jin, but Su Yufeng beside him did not greet Ke Jin. Instead, he stared at the crystal sand pools in the second and third card pools. His brown eyes were filled with shock, followed by an incredible confusion. He obviously could not believe what he saw.

Uncle Zhou looked at Su Yufeng strangely, followed his gaze, and was soon stunned. Then his lips trembled slightly, and his voice was so excited that it was difficult to speak: "This, this... Could it be..."

"Yu Feng." Ke Jin walked up to the young man and smiled at him, "I know tonight is the end time of our agreed card pool linkage, but I want to renew the contract for another month, is that okay?"
