Chapter 78: Temple of the Gods



When talking about the club "Temple of the Gods", the one that everyone is most familiar with is Ling Jing Tang, the originator of the gold series.

Ling Jingtang made his debut in the second season, created the "anthropomorphic weapon card" genre, and won the second season individual championship. It was he who started the trend of "single critical hit kill" for gold cards, making the single attack value of gold cards the highest. The official even modified the card attribute rules because of him - all cards with metal weapon elements were classified as gold.

As one of the founders of the five series, Ling Jingtang's position in the league is naturally very solid. From the second season to the tenth season, after nine years of accumulation, he has a considerable number of loyal fans. Coupled with his humorous personality and handsome features, he can always rank in the top five in every online popular player voting.

However, he alone cannot support a large club. A club as big as the Temple of the Gods must be full of top players.

Tang Muzhou said: "There are three people in the Temple of the Gods, Ling Jingtang, Xu Xingtu and Ye Suqian, who are called the 'iron triangle combination' by netizens. Ling Jingtang created the gold weapon card, Xu Xingtu is the gold god card, and Ye Suqian is the strongest military strategist standing behind them, and is also the most powerful original card designer in the Professional Alliance."

Xie Mingzhe had heard of Xu Xingtu's name before. He had made cards of a bunch of Western mythological characters such as Lucifer and Michael. In order to seal the god cards, Xie Mingzhe had even specially made a card of Taiyi Zhenren, using the magic weapon "Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover" to target the god cards.

Some time ago, Xie Mingzhe used instant death cards to target all six large clubs in the alliance. Five clubs approached him. The Arbitration and Ghost Hell both wanted to recruit him as a designer, offering very good conditions. Fang Yu from Liushuang City approached him to customize death language cards and proposed a cooperation invitation. Pei Jingshan from Dark Night City simply bought a full set of instant death cards from him to study. Tang Muzhou from Fenghua Club, needless to say, had been instructing him on how to make instant death cards from the beginning. The two had been communicating with each other and now became brothers.

But the Temple of the Gods club has remained silent until now.

Even though Xie Mingzhe made a card for "Taishang Laojun" to destroy weapons and a card for "Taiyi Zhenren" to seal the gods, the Temple of the Gods still looked "indifferent".

Now it seems that the Temple of the Gods is not without action - but is making big moves in secret!

They directly made a "character death card" to counter Xie Mingzhe, specifically to restrain Uncle Fatty's character deck!

Xie Mingzhe asked in confusion, "So, the card that restrains humans, the Piranha Plant, was designed by the man named Ye Suqian?"

Xie Mingzhe nodded: "Yes. Do you know this person?"

Xie Mingzhe said: "I heard Master Zheng Feng mention it."

When Zheng Feng invited him to join the Ghost Hell Club not long ago, he had carefully analyzed the current status of the major clubs in the alliance with him and mentioned that the Temple of the Gods had a genius designer who was the most powerful card designer in the alliance. At that time, Old Zheng did not mention the name of that person in detail. Xie Mingzhe was not interested in joining the Temple of the Gods and did not check it out separately.

So his name is Ye Suqian? The name Suqian seems familiar...

Xie Mingzhe thought about this and continued, "I've heard of him, but I don't know his name. Since Ye Suqian is so good at original cards, why doesn't he become an original card player?"

Tang Muzhou was silent for a moment, then said, "He is quite special. He was born with a disability and has been sitting in a wheelchair. In fact, holographic games connect people's five senses, and his leg disability does not affect his playing. He probably doesn't want to show up in front of the public in that manner, so he has been hiding behind the scenes as a designer for these years."

Xie Mingzhe was stunned. Both legs are disabled? Medical treatment in this world is developing rapidly, so disabilities should be curable, right? Why is he always sitting in a wheelchair?

Tang Muzhou quickly explained the reason: "It's not a muscle or bone problem. It's said that he has a loss of nerves in his calves and no pain fibers. He can actually stand up, but he can't feel it, so he's too lazy to stand and just sits in a smart wheelchair. Most of Xu Xingtu's Protoss cards were designed by Ye Suqian. Take a look at the final settlement interface of the arena. The deck of the person you just competed with, do the two cards of Piranha Plant and Hades have a leaf symbol behind them?"

Xie Mingzhe immediately played the video again from the beginning. On the settlement interface, all the card data was clearly displayed. There was indeed a leaf mark on the lower right corner of the two cards, Piranha Plant and Hades. Although it was only a small leaf, it was very beautifully designed and the pattern on the leaf was difficult to copy.

Tang Muzhou sighed: "It is indeed him. This leaf is the logo of his original card."

Xie Mingzhe was silent for a moment, somewhat helpless: "It seems that the Temple of the Gods is going against me? The human race's instant death card will indeed completely disrupt my rhythm. When Liu Bei died in this round just now, the rhythm of my entire deck was completely disrupted, and I couldn't even use my linkage skills."

Seeing his depressed look with his head down, Tang Muzhou couldn't help but smile: "You should feel happy."

Xie Mingzhe wondered: "I'm being targeted, why should I be happy?"

Tang Muzhou said, "It can scare a card-making master like Ye Suqian to make a special instant-death card to target you. What does this mean?"

Xie Mingzhe's eyes suddenly lit up: "It means he hates me and values ​​me, right?!"

"That's right." Tang Muzhou said with a smile: "Only masters will be envied by others. Professional athletes are not afraid of being targeted. What they fear most is that no one is targeting them at all."

The reason is very simple. If many people try to target your deck, it means that you are very important in everyone's heart and are an opponent that everyone is particularly afraid of. If no one targets you at all, what does it mean? You can win by playing casually, you are too bad!

Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhe suddenly became excited: "I haven't even played in the professional league yet, and the Temple of the Gods has already started targeting me. If I really play in the future, will they find ways to crack my deck?"

Tang Muzhou nodded. "Yes, Ye Suqian is particularly good at breaking the decks of the great gods. He is the most crucial figure for the Temple of the Gods to stand firm among the top clubs. I guess it was no coincidence that you met Xu Xingtu in the arena today. It was probably Ye Suqian's idea."

"It's not a coincidence?" Xie Mingzhe was stunned. "Did he come to the arena on purpose to snipe me and interrupt my winning streak?"

"That's possible." Tang Muzhou pointed at the video on the screen and analyzed, "Take a look at the record of 'Sunshine'. He created a small account a few days ago, and recently he reached the Star Card Master level by winning streaks. The two hidden cards, Piranha and Pluto, were only replaced after he met you. He must use other more common cards in ranked games, making it difficult to judge his identity."

Tang Muzhou stroked his chin and thought for a while, then continued, "Your deck was exposed in the professional players' group before. At that time, many people were analyzing the cracking method of your group attack wave deck. Although the people from the Temple of the Gods did not propose a cracking solution, they must have seen it. Xu Xingtu is young and energetic and likes challenges very much. In addition, Ye Suqian has already developed the human death card. It is very likely that he deliberately went to the arena to bump into you. As long as he maintains a 100% win rate, such a win rate is rare at the high-end level, and he will bump into you one day. If I guess correctly, the Temple of the Gods will contact you."

As soon as Xie Mingzhe finished speaking, he heard a system prompt: "You have new mail, please check it."

When he opened his mailbox, he saw an email from the arena opponent named "Sunshine": "Hello, Uncle Fatty, I am Xu Xingtu, a player from the Temple of the Gods. Our designer Brother Ye wants to meet you. He said he has something important to discuss with you. Could you please come to the Temple of the Gods?"

Xie Mingzhe helplessly held his forehead and looked at Tang Muzhou and said, "Brother, you are really a prophet. Every time you said a guild was looking for me, I would receive an email from the guild the next second."

Tang Muzhou said innocently: "Really? Then let me predict that their designer is here too."

Xie Mingzhe: "...Go buy a lottery ticket!"

***

After Tang Muzhou left, Xie Mingzhe turned around and went to the study room.

On his personal galaxy map, a golden, glowing guild territory star appeared—the Temple of the Gods Guild Territory.

In this way, he collected the transmission points of the territories of the six major clubs and guilds of the Professional Alliance, plus his own Nirvana Guild. The seven small planets of red, green, purple, black, blue, white and gold were neatly arranged on his galaxy navigation map.

It's like gathering seven planets to summon the dragon...

Xie Mingzhe rubbed his temples and set off for the last guild that contacted him: the Temple of the Gods.

Magnificent and magnificent, this adjective is the most appropriate to describe the Temple of the Gods.

As Xie Mingzhe entered the territory, he was almost blinded by the golden light. The buildings looked like the "temples" in Western mythology, magnificent and with a particularly distinctive style.

Xie Mingzhe was led to the office by the guild receptionist and found two people inside as soon as he entered.

One of them was the small account of Xu Xingtu that he had just met in the arena. There was nothing much to discuss about the appearance of the system-provided character.

The other person was very special, I don't know if it was his real image - he was a man in his twenties, wearing trousers and a snow-white shirt, sitting in a wheelchair, with a thin blanket covering his legs. The man had a soft face, delicate features, a thin body, pale skin, and looked a little weak, but his eyes were bright and energetic.

Xu Xingtu, who had a system face, smiled and said, "Uncle Fatty, did you enjoy the last round in the arena? I went to bump into you on purpose to end your winning streak. Who told you to act like Taishang Laojun and Taiyi Zhenren to target our Temple of the Gods?"

Listening to the young and cheerful voice next to his ears, Xie Mingzhe rolled his eyes in his heart. However, there was nothing wrong with Xu Xingtu's approach. Xie Mingzhe targeted them and they targeted him back. This was very fair.

Xie Mingzhe smiled good-naturedly and said, "I didn't make the instant death card targeting you on purpose. Pei Jingshan is right. If everyone is targeted, then it's not targeting. So, it's normal for you to make the human race card targeting me. I'm not angry at all. But, you two invited me here today, wasn't it to challenge me?"

Xu Xingtu's eyes widened. "I just want to challenge you, so what? What's the point of secretly making a bunch of instant death cards? If you have the guts, come to the professional league and let us take turns to beat you up one by one! Do you really think that an instant death card can scare us to death?"

Xie Mingzhe smiled and said, "Well, we will meet in the arena in the future. You can use a death card to kill my human card in one second, and I can also use Taiyi Zhenren to kill your Protoss card in one second. The outcome will be uncertain then."

Xu Xingtu raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean by the outcome is uncertain? You will definitely lose, right?"

Xie Mingzhe: "Ahem, it's not a good idea to set a flag like this..."

Xu Xingtu was stunned: "What?"

Xie Mingzhe smiled: "Nothing."

Xu Xingtu looked at him in confusion. Xie Mingzhe suddenly felt that this guy was a little bit stupid. What was going on?

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in my ears: "Xiao Xu, stop making trouble, go find Ling Shen first, I have something to say to Uncle Fatty alone."

Xu Xingtu said respectfully: "Okay, Brother Ye, I'm leaving now."

After taking two steps, he turned back to look at Xie Mingzhe: "Ending your winning streak today is just a piece of cake. I didn't even use my trump card deck. Just wait, I will beat you until you cry in the arena!"

Xie Mingzhe: “…………”

These flags are all set, and I might beat you to tears by then.

After Xu Xingtu left, Ye Suqian smiled and said, "Uncle Fat, I've heard a lot about you. I'm Ye Suqian, the card designer of the Temple of the Gods."

Ye Suqian gives people a warm and gentle feeling. His voice is very gentle, and he looks frail. Coupled with his disabled legs, others can't help but feel pity for him.

But Xie Mingzhe knew that this was all superficial. He could create a human death card in a very short time, and he could help ace players like Ling Jingtang and Xu Xingtu design exclusive cards. This behind-the-scenes military strategist of the Temple of the Gods was definitely not a weakling who needed sympathy!

On the contrary, Ye Suqian is very strong!

Although he was smiling, Xie Mingzhe could sense a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.

It was a fierce confrontation between two evenly matched opponents.

Ye Suqian still smiled and asked, "Does the name Suqian sound familiar to you?"

Xie Mingzhe was stunned. When he first heard it, he did feel it sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

Ye Suqian said: "My grandfather once told me that his ancestors were from Suqian, Jiangsu."

Xie Mingzhe: “………………”

This simple sentence made Xie Mingzhe's scalp explode.

Others may not react much to this sentence, just thinking it is an unfamiliar place name. The world is so big, it is normal to hear unfamiliar place names. But Xie Mingzhe understood it immediately - this place name belongs to China in the Earth era.

Could it be that this guy also traveled through time? Could it be that the cards of the gods in the Temple of the Gods were not handed down from Western mythology, but that someone had originally created those cards of Western mythological characters?

The author has something to say:

The previous preparations for the Temple of the Gods and Western Mythology cards will soon be revealed, and the protagonist will obtain the achievement of "finally collecting all six club territories"!

Ye Suqian is not a time traveler, not a time traveler, not a time traveler! This article will not have the bloody plot of two time travelers fighting each other. I say it three times because it is important. Don't worry, read the next chapter.
