The sound of a growling stomach interrupted Zuo Si's thoughts.

He hadn't had a proper meal for several days.

The food stored in the warehouse rotted and deteriorated under the combined effects of corpses and plague, emitting a pungent stench.

Not to mention eating it, even if you get close to smell the odor you can't help but spit it out.

However, in order to relieve his hunger, Zuo Si carefully took out a small paper bag from his bag, opened it, took out a piece of crystal clear candy, put it in his mouth, closed his eyes and felt the sweetness on the tip of his tongue.

This bag of candy was originally a small gift from a beautiful sixteen-year-old female apprentice more than two months ago in order to please him, the most favored disciple of the tower master.

Because I'm in the teething period and don't like sweets very much, I was lucky enough to keep it until now. It has become the only thing I can use to satisfy my hunger and replenish energy.

After all, apart from Asta, no one else knew Zuo Si’s real age, and everyone thought he was a child under ten years old.

Since this misunderstanding could bring him many extra benefits and conveniences, he had no intention of correcting it.

Unfortunately, with the outbreak of the plague, the lovely female apprentice soon became one of the first people to die.

Because of this, Zuo Si was sad for a long time.

Until he accidentally discovered that he was actually the source of the plague...

The natural disaster was caused by me? Zuo Si couldn't believe it in his dreams. With just a sneeze, he caused the death of thousands of people and led to the demise of such a powerful magic civilization.

Fortunately, after research, he found that he did not release large quantities of mutated bacteria and viruses into the surrounding environment at all times.

When the body is healthy, the immune system forms an extremely delicate and complex symbiosis with it, like playing a cat-and-mouse game.

Neither saliva, blood, nor feces are contagious.

But once you get sick, these viruses and bacteria suppressed by the immune system will immediately become active and multiply at an extremely fast rate, eventually turning into a horrific plague that sweeps across all life around it.

As the sugar gradually melted in the mouth and went down the esophagus into the digestive system to be converted into energy necessary for the body, the intense feeling of hunger not only did not subside, but became even stronger.

In desperation, Zuo Si could only gulp down half a glass of water to coax his digestive system, and quickly walked out of the gloomy and terrifying basement and came to the window sill of a public lounge on the middle floor of the tower.

After getting a rough idea of ​​the proportions of various energies in the surrounding environment, he immediately pulled out a blank card engraved with mysterious symbols, and used the power of sparks to draw out all the mana in the mana pool.

moment!

The sky of the floating city, which was originally shrouded in negative energy and was slightly dim, suddenly seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand.

A dazzling beam of light descended from the sky onto the high tower!

Boom!!!! Under such a strong infusion of energy, patterns and words gradually appeared on the blank card.

[Land Card: Floating City Tower]

[LV2 colorless card (upgradable)]

[Card Quality: Ordinary]

[Effect: When this card takes effect, it can directly provide three points of universal mana and one point of black mana per day, and it can also be bound to the creator profession.

No matter in any other magical world, this profession can recover mana normally and exert its full capabilities.

[Using this card does not require mana consumption]

[If the card effect is damaged or destroyed by other magical forces, it will automatically enter the cemetery and wait for rebirth for ten days.]

[Note: The universal mana in the land cards can be used in place of any other mana. Black mana represents swamps, decay, decay, and death, and is mainly used to create and use black cards]

"Use the land card! It will be permanently bound to the creator profession!"

After confirming the effect of the card, Zuo Si chose to activate it without hesitation.

The next second...

The card that was emitting a faint glow disappeared without a trace.

He himself immediately felt an energy channel that was closely connected to his own spark.

With the help of this energy channel, you can get a steady supply of energy from the floating city tower under your feet.

Of course, the price is that the mana pool that has just been filled up becomes 0/100.

There really is not a drop left.

"It's not easy! With this land card, I can finally run away with peace of mind."

He had been very worried that all his hard work in this world, and he had finally reached the LV5 creator profession, would be completely wasted in the end because there was no land card to bind it to, and it would be completely wasted when he escaped to other magic worlds.

You have to know that some of the magic items and strange objects he made would immediately become unusable or extremely dangerous once the profession of creation was lost.

At the same time, a slight change occurred on the page floating in front of him.

[Current Task 1: Create a Land Card (Completed)]

[Planeswalker Class Upgrade Unlock]

[New Mission: Escape from Despair (Reward: Three Card Draw Opportunities)]

"Escape from despair? And it's also a reward of three chances to draw cards? It seems that the upper passage leading to the space-time gate is full of dangers that are enough to threaten my life." Zuo Si frowned as he stared at the changes in the task bar on the book page.

You should know that the number of bonus card drawing opportunities is often directly linked to the danger of the task.

Generally speaking, tasks that are not very dangerous will only give you one chance to draw a card.

Even a task like creating land cards, which could lead to exposure and serious consequences, only gives two chances to draw cards at best.

Therefore, for a task that gives you three chances to draw cards in one go, you must be fully prepared.

Thinking of this, Zuo Si immediately used the two card drawing opportunities he had just obtained.

A huge turntable suddenly appeared on the page, and countless cards began to spin around it at high speed.

Since only the backs of the cards were shown, he had no idea what the cards really looked like.

When the speed gradually slowed down and finally stopped, the two cards closest to the turntable pointer suddenly turned over, one of them showed a white glow, and the other emitted black mist.

[Creature Card: Human - Light Armor Soldier]

[LV1 White Card (Upgradable)]

[Card Quality: Ordinary]

【Effect: Summon a soldier with LV5 fighter level.

The soldier may be a melee unit wearing chain mail, a metal helmet, a short sword and a leather shield, or he may be an archer holding a bow and arrow and wearing leather armor.

Whether it is a melee unit or a ranged unit, they can understand any language you say and fully obey every command given until they are killed or actively cancel the summons.

[Using this card requires two points of white magic, which symbolizes the plains and positive energy, or two points of general magic]

[When the summoned soldier is killed, the card automatically enters the cemetery and waits for rebirth for one day]

[Magic Card: Wither]

[LV2 Black Card (Cannot be upgraded)]

[Card Quality: Rare]

[Effect: When this card is activated, it can release a large cloud of deathly poison filled with negative energy to any designated location no more than thirty meters away, which lasts for thirty seconds.

All living things that inhale the poisonous cloud, whether friendly or enemy, will have their bodies and internal organs quickly wither, decay and die.

As for the speed of death, it depends on the creature's size, magic resistance, and vitality.

However, not only are undead creatures completely immune to this spell, but they will also slowly recover their health within the range of the wither magic.

[Using this card requires three points of general magic, or three points of black magic]

[When the withering magic ends, the card will automatically enter the graveyard and wait for rebirth for two days]

"A common creature card and a rare magic card? The result of this card draw is not bad. At least it is much stronger than the previous ones."

Zuo Si looked at the two new cards in his hand and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Obviously, when it comes to drawing cards, his luck is definitely not in the category of "European Emperor", but it is also far from being "Unlucky".

It's the kind of "conservation of character" that is sometimes good and sometimes bad.

What's more, Zuo Si has already inherited this "legacy".

The number of cards in it is always limited. Even if you can't draw a powerful card now, you will be able to draw it one day.
