Although Xie Mingzhe is an absolute newbie, he is an intern in the studio after all. Taking advantage of this group activity, Brother Chen introduced Xie Mingzhe to the members of Nirvana Studio: "Chi Qing's game ID is Qingqingcao, Pang Yu's ID is Yuzhouxingchen, Jin Yue's ID is Jinzi, and my ID in the game is Brother Chen. There are only four of us in the studio now."

"Hello everyone." Xie Mingzhe also took the initiative to introduce himself, "My name is Xie Mingzhe, I just started playing this game, my ID in the game is: Fat Uncle."

"...Hello." When everyone heard this strange ID, they responded vaguely, none of them were very enthusiastic. It has been a long time since I have seen a newcomer like him. I don't know what Brother Chen is thinking. He actually hired a newbie to be a power player. Is it reliable?

Chi Qing's mouth twitched slightly, and he chatted with the boss privately: "Brother Chen, are you sure you want to take him with you?"

"He said he has several years of experience as a power leveler. I'll tell him about the Boss's mechanics later. It shouldn't be a problem. Let him join in the fun." Brother Chen tried to convince himself and then looked at Xie Mingzhe in the game.

I remember the young man who came today was very handsome, with a sunny smile and a height of more than 1.8 meters. But his image in the game was completely different - a fat man less than 1.7 meters tall, named "Fat Uncle" - the more you look at him, the sillier he looks.

A tall and skinny boy with the ID "Fat Uncle"? Is he here to make people laugh?

Brother Chen couldn't look at his ID directly, so he waved his hand and said, "Enter the dungeon."

***

The illusions in the Star Card World are just like the dungeons in online games. You will get many rewards by challenging the illusions. The difficulty of the illusions is divided by star level, with the lowest being one star and the highest being seven stars. The Misty Forest on Jupiter is a five-player material dungeon with a difficulty of seven stars.

As soon as Xie Mingzhe entered the dungeon, he knew he had come to the wrong place. The health of the monsters here was tens of thousands, and his Thunderbird only had an attack power of 100 points. Not to mention fighting monsters, he would die if he was touched. Seeing that the Ice Snake and Thunderbird died as soon as they entered the dungeon, the number of uses also changed from 1/1 to 0/1, and the cards were damaged and needed materials to repair, Xie Mingzhe felt very distressed and immediately put the cards away.

Xie Mingzhe thought that since he was so low-level, he would definitely die if he went to a high-level dungeon. As a result, both of his cards died, but the character of Fatty Uncle did not die in the dungeon. Maybe the setting of this game is based on cards, and the battle depends entirely on cards. Players have no attack power, so they will not die?

Xie Mingzhe followed the four people with doubts, observing carefully.

As soon as Pang Yu entered the dungeon, he used a [Rhino Card]. The rhino charged forward, instantly breaking the silence of the Misty Forest. The awakened little tree elves, seeing an intruder in their home, immediately howled and rushed towards the rhino.

The rhino ran wildly all the way, and Brother Chen and his teammates followed it. The little tree elves were scattered in all directions, and no one could see where the rhino was.

At this moment, Chi Qing, the girl next to him, suddenly summoned two cards in a row.

——The Storm Goddess, the graceful goddess waved her wings, and the tornado swept violently, instantly gathering the scattered little tree elves together!

——The Ice and Snow Goddess, a goddess as transparent as ice crystals, descended from the sky, heavy snow fell around her, and all the tree elves were frozen in place!

Brother Chen said, "Hit him!"

Then, Brother Chen and the guy named Jin Yue started to use their skills to smash down.

Xie Mingzhe was so stunned hiding in the back.

The holographic game was so realistic that he just saw the goddess of storm and the goddess of ice and snow descending. It was like sitting in a movie theater on Earth and watching various 3D fantasy blockbusters. The goddess was right in front of him, lifelike, with the sound of the wind blowing all around and heavy snow falling overhead. Both the visual and sound effects were perfect.

666, the game effects are really awesome. We should give a thumbs up to the engineers who developed the game.

Xie Mingzhe sighed as he watched them fight the monsters.

The four people worked in perfect harmony and cleared the dungeon very efficiently. It took them only 30 seconds to kill all the tree elves. Brother Chen tidied himself up on the spot, put the fallen fragments into his bag, and continued to walk deeper into the forest.

Since Xie Mingzhe's card was dead and damaged anyway, he just focused on watching the fun.

As he had expected, the materials dropped in the Jupiter forest copy were all of wood attribute.

After defeating seven waves of monsters, we finally reached the Boss.

Xie Mingzhe saw that the boss in the distance was a flower, about one meter tall, and its shape was a bit like the lily on Earth, but it was a colorful version, with five large petals in red, green, blue, brown, and gold.

Brother Chen stopped and said, "Ah Qing, tell Xiao Xie how to defeat this boss."

Chi Qing, who was named, still spoke in a cold voice: "The Flower Demon is a five-attribute Boss. When fighting the Boss, the player needs to step on the formation. Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth correspond to gold, green, blue, red, and brown respectively. After the formations of different colors are generated under its feet, the player needs to step on the outer circle to restrain it. This will make the fight much easier. The order of restraint is: wood restrains earth, earth restrains water, water restrains fire, fire restrains gold, and gold restrains wood."

A novice would definitely not be able to remember all the information she said at once. But Xie Mingzhe was a person with such a high talent for gaming that he was once visited by an "e-sports club scout". He immediately extracted the key points from her words: "How can I help? Can I help you step on the formation?"

Chi Qing spoke very quickly, but she didn't expect that this guy listened carefully. Her aversion to "the newbie who holds back" was slightly reduced, and she said, "When the green wooden array appears under the boss's feet, it will restore his health. The red fire array will violently kill the whole group. We must step on the array to restrain it. It doesn't matter if we don't step on other arrays that increase attack and defense. We can use brute force to kill them... Do you understand how to step on them?"

Xie Mingzhe nodded: "I understand. When the Wood Array appears, step on the Gold Array, and when the Fire Array appears, step on the Water Array, right?"

"...That's right." Chi Qing was a little surprised. It took her a long time to memorize the formula of attribute counteraction. She wanted to explain it to him in detail again, but she didn't expect that this newcomer understood it after listening to it once. Is this true?

"Get ready," said Brother Chen. He was also worried because he felt that if the newcomers made the wrong move, the team would be destroyed.

However, to everyone's surprise, when the health-recovering wood array appeared under the boss' feet, Xie Mingzhe immediately ran to the outer golden array and stepped on it to dissolve it. Then, a red fire array appeared under the boss' feet, and he stepped on the blue array to restrain it. When the blue array appeared, he stepped on the brown one. When the brown one appeared, he stepped on the green one...

The Boss sends out an array very quickly, but the Fat Uncle in the game also runs very fast. His running back and forth is exactly in sync with the rhythm of the Boss's skills - the Boss sends out an array every 10 seconds, and he runs back and forth exactly once every 10 seconds, as if he had calculated the time for the Boss's attack.

All the formations were accurately hit, and all five types of formations were broken.

With his help, the four of them summoned cards to fight the boss with all their strength, and the speed was even faster than usual?

After successfully completing the game, Brother Chen was very surprised to see that it took him 3 minutes less than usual. He thought that this newbie would run around randomly and step on the wrong formation when he first started playing the game, causing everyone's cards to be destroyed in seconds. Unexpectedly, the newbie was very smart. He remembered the relationship between the formations after Chi Qing explained it once, and there was no mistake.

It seems that what he said about "being a trainee for several years" is true - although he has never played "Star Storm", he has played other games, so he can draw inferences from one example and quickly understand it.

The interns hired for 1500 are really "good value for money"! Thinking of this, Brother Chen's attitude towards Xie Mingzhe also improved a lot, and he asked gently: "Xiao Xie, you seem to be very clear about the restraint relationship of the five elements?"

Xie Mingzhe chuckled and said, "I have memorized many of the settings for the five elements in the games I played before."

Brother Chen looked at him with admiration and said, "In the game Star Card Storm, all cards have an attribute that corresponds to five main stars of the attribute. You must go to the corresponding main star to brush evolution materials. Attributes will restrain each other. For example, water restrains fire, so it will be easier for water cards to hit fire cards. This hit bonus is actually not much. What is more important is the deck bonus of the same attribute."

Since Xie Mingzhe was very quick-witted, Brother Chen was willing to give him some guidance, so he patiently explained, "The so-called deck means that when you have five or more cards of the same attribute in your deck, you will get the deck bonus of [Protection of the Main Star]. There are many types of deck bonuses for the five main stars. In the later stages of building a deck, you can rely on the main star you like. Since you understand the attributes, it will be much easier for you to understand this game!"

"Yeah!" Xie Mingzhe responded while flipping through the two cards the system gave him. Ice Snake was water-based, and Thunderbird was gold-based. After hearing what Brother Chen said, he finally understood the role of the card attributes. Attributes restrain each other, and decks of the same type have bonuses. This should be the key point to consider when playing in the arena in the future.

"You should level up first. When you reach level 35 and can use seven-star cards, we will go to clear dungeons together!" Brother Chen was a little impatient. Since the intern he recruited was a good seedling, he wanted to train him quickly and make him his right-hand man.

"Okay!" Xie Mingzhe also wanted to level up quickly. The character's level would affect his mental strength. He only had 20 points of mental strength now, and he couldn't use high-level cards. The current focus was to level up the character first.

***

At the same time, in the player apartment of Fenghua Club.

A handsome young man sat on the sofa, holding a thin tablet computer in his hand. His hands were very beautiful, his nails were neatly trimmed, and his slender fingers looked very strong.

At this moment, his right index finger was sliding quickly across the tablet computer.

One after another Seven-Star Black Cards appeared on the LCD screen in front of him. On the back of the cards, which radiated a black metallic luster, thin lines of red, green, blue, and gold - various colors extended like vines, drawing complex and exquisite patterns.

——Every card is like a work of art with collectible value.

The door was pushed open, and a woman in her thirties wearing a professional dress and high heels walked in. She stopped in front of him and said, "Xiao Tang, the task of purchasing 100 wood-attribute seven-star fragments at the trading house this afternoon was posted privately by you, right? I saw the ID of your secondary account."

"Yeah." Tang Muzhou's eyes were still on the screen, and he responded softly.

"If you need it urgently, you can tell the club and I can get the materials for you directly from the guild." The woman suggested kindly.

"Don't let the club know yet." Tang Muzhou put down his tablet computer and looked up at her. "I'm researching new cards."

"Oh?" The woman sat down next to him with interest, "What are the data of the new card?"

"It's OK. After it's upgraded to seven stars, I'll take it to the arena for actual combat and see the final effect before deciding whether to bring it to the next season. The skill values ​​of the new card are not very stable, and I don't want to alarm the club for the time being, so I issued a bounty mission in the game." Tang Muzhou explained.

"So that's how it is." The woman nodded and asked, "Is the person who takes over your mission reliable?"

"It was an order from a power leveling studio. Power leveling will not disclose the client's information. Besides, I opened a smurf account and they don't know it."

"That's good." The woman breathed a sigh of relief and warned, "Be careful. After all, you are famous and many clubs are studying your deck. Before the competition, the deck data cannot be disclosed in advance to avoid being targeted. You should also be careful when experimenting in the game."

"Got it, Sister Xue." Tang Muzhou smiled. "Even if someone finds out, it doesn't matter. I don't just rely on cards to play games."

"..." He was right. A strong deck was only a basic condition. The key to winning in a big competition depended on the players' ability to deploy their troops and respond to emergencies. As the singles champion, Tang Muzhou was certainly an expert in this field.

Tang Muzhou is only 23 years old now. He has a unique temperament as a young man. He is graceful in every move, just like the most gentle prince in comics. He is handsome, and his smile is even more heartwarming. Facing his smile, it is easy for people to let down their guard.

However, only those who know him well know that Tang Muzhou is not as gentle as he appears.

Beneath his elegant smile lies a ruthless and brutal attack style. He is very good at using wood-based plant cards, especially his famous card, Millennium Divine Tree, which has a large-scale death stranglehold and has defeated countless professional players' trump cards.

Smiling while strangling his opponents with all kinds of vines - Tang Muzhou on the field is undoubtedly the most terrifying player among the wood-type players!

The author has something to say: The five-element setting is to enrich the later characteristic card decks. Tang Muzhou is the strongest in the wood element, and you know what I mean by vine tentacles and binding.

A gentle, dark, vine-bound top with explosive fighting ability and a unique and imaginative bottom.

When Xie Mingzhe is really naughty and annoying, Tang Muzhou can tie him up with vines :)
