Chapter 115: Lanqi's Art to the Limit

In a card-making workshop in the style of the principal's office.

Lanqi cleared the wide work table and started a new process of material processing and proportioning.

At this time, on the low-legged auxiliary workbench, several trays were filled with various materials.

It's quite similar to the scene when Talia was making "The Poet of Great Love".

They are materials that Lanqi spent a lot of time mixing.

After bringing the divided plates to the work table, Lanqi handled the materials calmly and skillfully.

Making this card might have been a gamble, as purchasing the materials alone took up almost all of his money.

In order to harmonize with the core sacred quality material [Unnamed Light Elemental Stone], the amount of light-based sealing materials used by Lanqi is also quite complex.

If an ordinary card maker were to handle these materials, which would cost him his entire fortune, he would probably be so nervous that his hands would tremble.

But Lanqi remained calm, and was not even as stressed as when he was making cards at Talia's house.

Instead of lamenting that you always fail at critical moments, it is better to admit that your own strength is just that.

That's what Lanci thought.

No matter what time it is, just treat it as an ordinary card making. This is the best state of wholehearted dedication.

Lanci's men worked quickly and accurately, with calm and determined expressions, and completed all the preparations in less than ten minutes.

His preparations quickly attracted the director's attention.

The broadcast screen started to be shown to Ranchi from time to time.

Because once you use materials of this level, it will either fail miserably or produce a pretty good finished product.

On the screen.

Lanqi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then a magic card appeared in his hand and he summoned it.

"Great poet, are you ready?"

After confirming again that all preparation steps were completed, Lanqi asked the Great Love Poet who had just been summoned.

"Yeah, no problem."

The poet of great love raised his arms joyfully, turned around as if dancing, and answered.

Suddenly.

Not only on the floor of the Card Creators Association, but also in Hutton Pedestrian Plaza, many surprised voices were heard.

"Epic summon?"

Generally speaking, summons of this level only appear in extremely high-level shadow world broadcasts.

I didn't expect to see it in the card maker exam.

"You can use any spells and magic cards during the card maker exam."

Soon, someone who knew the business and was sitting in the open air area of ​​a shop in the square spoke up.

If you have an epic summon with a high level of self-awareness, it can theoretically become a helper.

They have often heard that some big shots, if they have summoned creatures with particularly good tempers, may summon magic cards for a long time as butlers or followers.

Normally, the mere appearance of an epic summon would attract a lot of people to watch the fun.

Not to mention the Great Love Poet, whose image is gorgeous, lovely and moving.

"Wait, a beautiful lady with gray hair, red skirt and graceful looks..."

Someone seemed to have remembered something. "Could it be the "Great Love Poet" of the Demon Academy Principal Lan who was rumored recently?"

As the discussion grew louder, more and more passers-by in Hutton Pedestrian Plaza stopped to look at the live footage on the association's glass curtain wall.

In the very conspicuous principal's office.

Lanqi started making cards without hesitation.

Although there were still more than two hours left in the exam, his mana had already started to drain after he summoned the Poet of Great Love.

The poet of great love also began to collaborate with Lanqi very tacitly, just like the nurse and surgeon in the operating room.

Earlier, when he was making cards in the dormitory, Lanqi would often summon the poet of great love to work with him.

Later, what gradually made Lanqi doubt his life was that he discovered that the great poet's card-making talent seemed to be higher than his.

It was obviously just a magic card, but she could learn it right away.

Although the Great Love Poet's talent in painting is far inferior to that of Lanqi, her understanding and mastery of magic engineering even surpasses that of Lanqi.

Unfortunately, the Great Love Poet is only at the fixed first level. If he wants to make high-level magic cards, he can only be Ranchi's assistant.

Therefore, whenever Lanqi was making high-difficulty magic cards, he would summon the Great Love Poet to collaborate with him.

"This card making is particularly important. You have to help me put some pressure on it."

Lanqi said to the poet of great love while mixing the already ground light-attribute magic crystal powder and the specialized magic core liquid for sealing into ink.

The poet of great love seemed to understand something.

Her expression froze, no longer the lively and carefree demeanor she had before, but became extremely cold, like a strict overseer supervising Lanqi.

"Is that enough?"

The great poet of love asked coldly.

“It tastes good.”

Lanqi felt that he had entered a state of immersion.

In short, the poet of love is cosplaying Talia, putting pressure on Lanqi.

In addition to the help that these Great Love Poets can bring to Lanqi, Lanqi had another reason to summon the Great Love Poets when making the card this time.

The magic card he was trying to make would be based on the highest quality magic card of the third level in his hand, [Beautiful Notes] (Sound of Purgatory), and would imitate the core principles of his demon magic.

Few humans would use alien magic cards for a long time, because if humans overuse demon magic, it would cause irreversible partial deformation of the body and soul and turn them into demons.

This abnormal demonization cannot change the human race into a demon. It is only a malignant distortion that will greatly shorten lifespan and even turn a person into a madman or a monster.

The way to avoid these side effects is to find a suitable demonic medium. The usual practice is to use demonic materials as consumables, but this will greatly increase the cost, and there are still risks. Lanqi can use the great love poet who has a soul contract with him as a medium and assistant, so that he can use her to avoid the harm caused by demon magic to himself.

However, Lanqi needs to maintain the summoning of the Poet of Great Love for a long time during the card-making period, which consumes a lot of mana. In addition, the card-making with her participation also depends on the cooperation between him and her and her performance.

It is simply impossible for an ordinary card maker to collaborate with the Great Love Poet. In the highly concentrated card-making state, just hearing a little bit of the Great Love Poet's voice may cause ten times the anxiety and tension, causing the mind to go crazy and the card-making to collapse.

Only Lanqi's unique state of mind can be immune to the huge negative impact of the great love poet.

Lanci, who was immersed in the state, was able to mix the best proportions with ease and familiarity.

The Great Love Poet then began to help him synchronize his magic with the ink, and soon, the ink was blended by her unique magic.

Pouring magic ink into the magic pen, Lanqi unwrapped the magic scroll and engraved the summoning prototype he had previously made with core materials onto the whiteboard card.

The next most critical step requires rewriting and finalizing the enchantment structure, which will stimulate the characteristics of the material and truly give the summoning card magical properties.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Lanqi sat in front of the workbench, concentrating on slowly engraving the cards, while the Great Love Poet stood at the other end of the workbench, helping him sort out and point out the magic circuits on the cards, and working together to fully and evenly invest their magic power into every intricate magic rune.

Due to the huge amount of burning, his progress seemed extremely slow.

Just concentrating on completing this step, he seemed to lose the concept of time.

Outside the Shadow World examination hall, the midday sun had been shining on Hutton Pedestrian Plaza for a long time.

Nearly two hours had passed and Lanqi was still drawing.

As the exam draws to a close, fewer and fewer candidates remain in the artificial film world examination room, and more and more images will be given to Ranchi.

The figure of Lanqi in the principal's office appeared on the screen. He was concentrating like a sculpture on the key step of giving the summoned creature a magical structure and image.

This unfinished magic card, which was mostly blocked by Lanqi and the Great Poet's hands, had begun to spread dangerous arcs of light outward at some point, and seemed extremely unstable and could explode at any time.

However.

Lanqi seemed to still turn a blind eye to it, and carried out the final steps without hesitation, completing the drawing and finally debugging, processing and packaging it!

at this time.

Under the glass curtain wall of the Card Makers Association in Hutton Pedestrian Plaza, many passers-by opened their mouths unconsciously.

When the director finally stopped the screen on Lanqi, they knew that the success or failure of this card depended on this moment.

"This card cannot be finalized. Even if the magic circuit and the principle of the spell are all correct, the image he wants to give to the summoned creature is too crazy."

"How stupid! I finally completed the previous part. If I had played normally, it would have at least been a purple rare grade magic card. But he seemed determined to destroy this magic card."

"How can humans draw something so great..."

Some of them were amazed, some were stunned, and some were regretful.

There were also people who, even though they knew that Lanqi would definitely fail, could not help but stare at the looming magic card under Lanqi and the Great Love Poet's men.

Because Lanqi was like he was going to use the pen in his hand to draw the sun! At this time, Lanqi's face was getting paler and paler. Even if he had reached the third level, he was about to overturn his heart and magic power for this final drawing.

The poet has been loving him for so long that his magic power is finally running out.

But maybe it was because Lanqi was too focused.

It seemed as if he was completely unaware of his own status and the changes on the card surface.

This is a state of ecstasy that even surpasses the state of immersion. He will complete this work even until his death.

The changes on the magic card occurred slowly, and Lanqi didn't really notice it until it was completely changed.

It was a bright light that Lanqi's eyes could not bear for a moment.

The moment he closed his eyes, a dazzling light suddenly seemed to engulf everything in the principal's office. Only the gray outlines of Lanqi and the great poet remained on the white screen until they disappeared completely.

…

Hutton Pedestrian Plaza, under the glass curtain wall of the Ikerite Card Makers Guild.

The eyes of the onlookers were all focused on this most amazing moment, so much so that the air seemed to freeze.

The light on the screen expanded instantly, as if it was about to swallow up the real world.

At that moment, all the audience almost held their breath, and their eyes were fixed on the screen.

“…Is it ruined?”

"Finally he failed. He was too greedy. If he really made this, I don't know what level he would be rated!"

"Fortunately, the artificial shadow world has a protection mechanism. Even if you are injured by the explosion, you will recover to normal after you come out."

“What a pity.”

However.

Just as many people sighed and prepared to go back and continue their weekend itineraries.

It seemed that the picture on the glass curtain wall of the Card Creators Association did not stop there.

After all the light faded and everything returned to calm, a card with an orange electric cocoon finally appeared on the screen! [Glorious Virtue]

[Category: Summon Card]

[Grade: Orange Epic]

[Attribute: Light/Seal]

[Tier: 3]

[Effect: Consumes a large amount of mana continuously, summons a small sun with extremely bright brightness and no damage, blocks the sight of all targets, raises the temperature nearby, and gradually strengthens the light effect in a confined space, while gradually weakens the visual light effect in an open terrain.]

I updated 12,000 words today, the evening is burning out... I feel like I'm losing my mind...
