Chapter 219: Beginner Card Game
The deserted desert in the past seemed a bit busy today. People wearing full-body protective suits carried various instruments to test and sample in the field, and then measured various data underground, and extracted the surveillance at that time for playback and analysis.
After Tilan walked out of the temporary building built underground, she could see many aircraft taking off and landing in the camp outside, as well as some personnel sent by the Federal Central Government. The signs on their chests indicated that some of them were members of the Federal Central Tribunal, some were members of the Federal Disaster Affairs Administration, and some were members of the Federal Historical Archives Bureau.
Emeranda led Tilan to the temporary residential area in the distance. Along the way, many people looked at the black-haired girl curiously. After all, such a young figure was very rare in the camp. Most of the staff here were mature and professional.
Fortunately, because of Emeranda's identity as an investigator, others did not dare to come forward casually, and at most they just glanced at her.
After entering the residential area, Emeranda found one of the temporary houses. After knocking on the door and entering, Tilan also saw his companions who had been away for several days.
"Tilan is back~" As they said that, several people in the room stood up immediately, surrounded the girl who entered the room, and then looked left and right, as if they wanted to touch her.
"Okay, it's okay, don't keep staring at her." The girl said a little embarrassedly.
"But Tilan was really handsome that day~" Ruby put her hands together, blinking her eyes, as if there were little stars twinkling.
"It's really exaggerated." Allen also commented in this way. Although his tone was not as obvious as Ruby's, he could also see the surprise in the hearts of the people present at the time.
"I told you, our president Tilan is very powerful, haha." Guluo became active at this time.
"Okay, don't gather around for now, sit together for a while." Iyepel invited everyone to sit down for the time being.
The living room of this room is very spacious and there is a soft blanket on the ground. Before Tilan came, some people were bored watching videos on the sofa, some people were sitting around the low table in the middle playing card games, and some were taking a nap.
After counting the number of people present, the girl found that two people were missing. "Where are Dolores and Avni?"
"Avni was taken back by her father, and Dolores seems to have been taken back too. However, she negotiated with her family for a while and just moved to a new place, not far from here." Ruby helped to answer.
"Avni's father is a senior official in the Four Leaf Crystal Energy Department. He dotes on his daughter and is probably worried about her. Dolores' family is the same, but Dolores' cousin is more opinionated, and her family will consider accepting her words." Jin Senke replied while leaning on the sofa.
"What about you? Logically speaking, aren't you also the eldest son of a wealthy family?" Gu Luo on the side was curious.
"I'm a man, not a delicate girl. Besides, I've done a lot of weird things over the years, and I've always gotten away with it. My family is probably used to it. Besides, I have a few younger brothers. Given my father's temper, if I die, he can just practice his trumpet again, and he'll be very happy." Jin Senke said nonchalantly, with one leg hanging from the sofa in the air, swinging back and forth.
"My cousin is different. Dolores is an only child with no brothers or sisters. The incense workshop is still waiting for her to inherit, so her safety is very concerned by her family. To be honest, it was not easy for her to convince her family to come out and experience this time."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Is the president free now? The investigator just sent you back. Was it a temporary reunion, or is everything fine?"
"It's fine." Tilan shook her head, then took off her shoes by the carpet, stepped on it with her feet in white socks, and sat at the low table with everyone.
"I was also very nervous at the beginning, but the investigators didn't make things difficult for me after they asked me questions, and they let me go back today." She looked at the cards on the table, and it seemed that they were trying out a new deck just now.
"You are lucky, President. I heard that the investigators are very difficult to deal with. They are good at digging out flaws from your language loopholes and can tell lies. They all want to dig out everything you have done since you were a child." Gu Luo gestured with exaggerated gestures.
"Stereotype, stereotype." Tilan shook her head, then picked up the cards on the table and looked at them carefully.
In the following time, Tilan chatted with everyone in the room for a long time, and then they returned to their rooms to rest and sleep.
The next day, Tilan came to where Dolores lived. This was the eastern corner of the residential area. The surrounding security was strict. It seemed that the people living there were all high-level technicians who were temporarily transferred.
After ringing the doorbell, a tall maid opened the door, looked at the girl for a while, and then let her in.
"The young lady is waiting for you in the glass restaurant at the back." After saying that, she led Tilan to the back, and soon they saw Dolores sitting in the glass room surrounded by vines and spider plants.
"Good morning, Tilan." The young lady of the wealthy family waved her hand, and behind her stood two capable and cold maids. Judging from the aura they exuded, they would be at least at the level of Sequence 5.
"Good morning, Dolores."
The girl sat in front of her, and soon a maid brought her the brewed tea.
"You guys go down first." Dolores raised her hand.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Aldridge told us to stay by the young lady's side at all times." The two maids beside her bowed to apologize, and then returned to their previous cold appearance.
"As you can see, Tilan, you've been a little uncomfortable recently." She gently stirred the tea in the cup with a spoon, and then added a few sugar cubes.
"I understand."
The girl nodded, and then the two talked about some things after they separated, and then slowly talked about current events, the situation in school, etc.
At noon, the two finished their meal, sat on the bench in the glass house together to bask in the sun, talked quietly, and then took a nap before saying goodbye.
Back to the camp where they lived, because they could not leave for the time being, Tilan also had a rare leisure time and played card games with her companions around.
"Has Tilan played before?" Ruby asked while shuffling the cards.
"I played it simply, but it was in the store at that time, and I didn't make a card by myself." She occasionally played for the rabbit-eared maid senior 'Belfinger' and used the ready-made card deck in the store to fight against others. .
"At that time, I played very casually, because I didn't understand the rules and effects very well. Occasionally, I won, but I was confused." She spent most of her time in junior high school studying, and only occasionally saw her classmates playing.
"This is actually not difficult to learn, let Ruby teach you." As she said, Ruby spread the shuffled cards horizontally on the table.
"Let's draw one first. The most important thing about card games is compatibility, because in today's rules, the effects on the cards will change according to the user. If it is a deck with a high synchronization rate, it can resonate to activate a more powerful effect, which also brings rich changes and fun."
"Compatibility?" The girl looked at the cards spread horizontally on the table and drew one from it.
The card depicted a new moon hanging high in the night sky, and under the new moon, there were broken wisteria flags, countless corpses and ghosts walking on the land, and bone dragons flying in the sky. In the distance in the background, a tall castle stood in the shadow. There was a winding road leading to the castle, and one by one, the necromancers walked forward like pilgrims.
"'The Founding of the Mercury Dynasty', when the bloody empire fell, the descendants fled in all directions, struggling to survive under the relentless pursuit day and night, until the witch of the underworld woke up, countless resentments and wills gathered, thousands of dead bones and corpses built walls, walking on the earth like a giant beast of the end, drowning and devouring all enemies. He is the object of fear of the world, but also our salvation and hope. - Excerpted from the notes of the necromancer Shandulu."
"Well, it's a good start. This card is the core of the Mercury Dynasty series. Every time two cards enter the graveyard, you can draw a hand card. If the number of creatures in the graveyard reaches 30, it will also give the withering sequence followers on the field the effect of entering the field to attack."
"Make good use of it, Tilan, today I will teach you how to use necromancy to defeat the enemy~" Ruby happily taught the girl the key to card battles.
