Chapter 109 Lanqi's Certified Card Maker Assessment
In the sky, the morning sun rose higher and higher, and the sunlight poured in through the gaps in the balcony railings, falling on Lanqi, stretching his shadow long.
There was a comfortable rattan chair on the balcony, and a half-read book on the glass coffee table next to it. The breeze filled with the fragrance of flowers blew by, caressing Lanqi's cheek, as if trying to blow away his sleepiness.
"Lanqi, it's time to go take the card-making exam. Stop thinking about your animal friends."
The poet Da Ai held the watering can, looked at the clock in the living room, then looked at Lanqi who was squatting on the ground beside him feeding the birds leisurely, and couldn't help kicking him twice in the back.
"I know. It's still early. We won't be late."
Lanqi rubbed his eyes sleepily.
Although he often let the great poet out and got to know her better, her attitude towards him was becoming more and more casual.
Sometimes you don’t feel that she is a girl at all. In fact, the poet’s behavior is very boyish.
"Go, Lanqi, show the people of the capital your sealing technique. The representative of sealing technique is Bishop Silent, it doesn't make sense!"
The poet of great love grinned in the morning sun.
"Yes, the sealing technique should also be sunny and warm, and definitely not a dark spell like Asksan's."
Lanqi smiled with relief, stood up and stretched with all his strength.
Soon, the Great Love Poet lifted the summoning status on his own, and Lanqi was ready to set off.
In the early morning twilight, as Lanqi passed the entrance of the Sage Academy dormitory, he walked slowly on the campus road with a faint smile on his face.
With a calm expression, he bathed in the light golden morning sun, and his temperament became even more sunny.
Today is the day for the registered card maker exam, and it is also the weekend, so there are no classes or student union activities.
A month passed in a flash, and it was all an ordinary daily routine.
Apart from going to the Student Union and smoothly handling minor disputes on campus, Lanqi spends most of his time looking for Talia or staying in the dormitory making cards.
Although he still didn't have full confidence in passing the exam, after Talia's training in the demon teaching method, and finding the type of magic that suits him best and practicing it hard, Lanci believed that he was much stronger than before when he was only good at making mental magic cards.
He got up early this morning and went to the Card Creators Association branch in the royal capital Ikerite to take the registration exam.
The higher your registered card maker status is, the more favorable discounts you will get when purchasing various conventional and rare materials from the Card Makers Association.
It can even be dispatched from other countries in the southern continent.
In addition, the transaction fees for selling cards and accepting designated commissions will also be very low.
In addition, the Card Makers Association is also a good place to purchase high-quality materials.
If Lanqi traded as a businessman like before, some high-level materials could only be sold to the association but could not be purchased from the association.
The association has been working to crack down on profiteers and their horses.
Not far from the dormitory building of the Sage Academy, Lanqi saw Hyperion sitting quietly waiting for him on a circle of wooden seats under a big tree.
"Good morning, Hyperion!"
Lanci waved and shouted.
Hyperion quickly noticed him and turned her head.
"Well, good morning."
The two of them met at the agreed meeting place, and then walked towards the Card Creators Association.
Hyperion had already agreed with Lanci that she would go to the Card Creators Association with him today.
She is one of the few people in the school who knows that Lanqi is a card maker, and she has always wanted to see Lanqi's card-making process.
Leave the school area.
They strolled along the quiet morning streets, along the cobblestone path beside the Ikerite Theater, crossed the canal on the stone bridge, and saw the Yarra moat shimmering with golden waves in the morning light.
"Lanqi, do you know that you have become a little famous in the capital recently?"
The two of them continued walking and chatting as usual.
"Is there such a thing?"
Lanqi had no idea that his deeds had spread beyond the Ikerit Academy.
During this period, he devoted himself to researching and developing cards and spent most of his time in school.
After leaving the school area, we headed to the Cat Boss Restaurant not far to the east to find Talia.
"Although our images of the Demonic Shadow World have not been made public, they are becoming more and more exaggerated..."
Hyperion sighed.
She thought it would be nice if there was a video.
It is precisely because there is no image that it is imagined and passed on by word of mouth. It is estimated that every time it passes through a person, it will change into a different version, and finally each version becomes extremely abstract.
"Tell me, what has the story been like?"
Lanci asked curiously.
"The most outrageous version at the moment is that even if Principal Lan carries the purgatory on his back and needs to hold up the Corridor Academy with one hand, he will still be invincible in the world when fighting against the blood prince."
Lanqi almost choked on his saliva when he heard this.
He coughed several times and asked, "No one will really believe it, right?"
Hyperion shook her head.
"Anyway, many residents of the capital are spreading the story with great joy. Some young parents even use this story to scare their disobedient children: If you don't behave like a good kid, Principal Lan will take you to the Devil's Academy for transformation."
"I……"
Lanqi was speechless for a moment.
It is obvious that in this film world, he is promoting positive energy such as love, peace, and moral order.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
How did it become a dark fairy tale?
It's terrible that rumors spread.
"Okay, okay, don't worry about it. We all know that the story is half-joking."
Hyperion smiled helplessly.
Although she knew that the story was three-quarters true and seven-quarters false, she could still see Lanqi's confusion at the moment.
Lan Qi heard this.
Nodded deeply.
Then he said with a firm look: "Yes, as long as I work harder next time, I will definitely let everyone understand the full positive energy I promote."
“…”
Hyperion hesitated to speak.
I always feel like it would have been better if I hadn't said that just now.
…
About half an hour later.
The two arrived at the South Continent Card Makers Association, located near Erica's Tower and Hutton Pedestrian Plaza east of the royal capital Ikerite.
It was different from the ancient-style branch of the Card Makers Association that Lanqi had seen in the border territory of South Wantina.
This magnificent postmodern building of the Ikerita branch of the royal capital was completed ten years ago. The Ikerita City Government was responsible for the implementation of the project. It is in sharp contrast to the neoclassical South Continent Shadow World Management Association building not far away. It is separated by the Hutton Pedestrian Plaza, and the two buildings are aligned on the axis.
The glass curtain wall of the Royal Capital Card Creators Association branch references Ikerit's city grid and reflects the landscape of Hutton Pedestrian Plaza.
As soon as they walked through the waterfall illusion door that opened automatically to welcome them, they saw the streamlined passages and forest galleries inside. From the design style alone, it can be seen that it incorporates elements of Ikrit humanities, geology, historical research, paleontology, magic engineering and sociology.
"What time does your exam start?"
Walking inside the building following the clear road signs, Hyperion tilted her head and asked.
"Nine o'clock. There's still plenty of time. We can go around first."
Lanqi estimated that it should be just after eight o'clock. "We have all upgraded. We can also see if there are any new cards that can be purchased before the next Shadow World."
"Yeah, okay."
Hyperion nodded.
She knew that Lanqi's Error Healing series of magic cards were all purchased from the Card Makers Guild.
These useless cards that ordinary people wouldn't use can be successfully obtained without spending a lot of money.
If you have nothing to do, you can look around more often. You might come across an error healing spell card with better effects.
However, it seems that the price of the Error Healing series of magic cards in the entire Hutton Kingdom has started to increase slightly recently.
Gradually, people discovered that these useless cards, which were originally used for dismantling, could be brought in to annoy the opponent.
Although there is no substantial effect, it can really improve your mentality.
Hyperion knew that the teachers in the Sage Academy must have understood this usage, and then followed Ranchi's example and tried it out, gradually starting this trend.
Although they couldn't tell anyone about it due to Dean Loren's ban, all the teachers knew that the price of this kind of card would increase significantly in the future, and the smart ones were stocking up.
