My Cards are Infinitely Refreshed

5: E-level contractsAt this moment, within the Card Table barrier, Shi Li had already laid out his deck.

A row of 3 cards against a row of 4 cards, the difference between the two sides was very obvious.

The Monster cards, all 4 of them, were identical.

【Void Rend Wolf】

Balanced, Attack 30, Health 60/60

【Cone of Wind - Passive】: When Void Rend Wolf attacks a 1-grid target, it gains 30 points of 【Full Pierce】 effect.

(【Full Pierce】: When attacking a target not in 【Defense】 state, all targets directly behind it take damage)

“This is the terror of the 【Void Rend Wolf】…”

Seeing this card again, the Bearded Man’s face showed fear.

4 Monster cards, a total of 120 Attack power.

Regular cards have a base health of only 100/100, while Ace cards have a base health of 200/200.

This meant that in just two rounds, the Player’s deck would be completely wiped out.

He had suffered such a crushing defeat just now.

“Big brother, look at his front-row card!”

But just then, the Silver 6 male suddenly patted the Bearded Man’s shoulder.

Following the direction he pointed, the Bearded Man saw the projection of Shi Li’s front-row card.

It was a squat, stout Stone Demon, appearing to have no neck or head, like a nearly square rock with limbs grown out of it.

【Crude Stone Demon】

Steadfast, 20 points, One Star

Attack 20, 100/100, 0/40

【Sturdy - Passive】: When Crude Stone Demon is in 【Defense】 state, damage taken is reduced by 10.

“No wonder he’s confident enough to go up against the 【Void Rend Wolf】…”

The Silver 5 male first showed a look of sudden realization, but then immediately said, “No, that’s not right!”

A character card’s regular actions are divided into three types: 【Attack】, 【Stand Still】, and 【Cast Skill】.

To enter 【Defense】 state, one needs to use a corresponding hand card.

But would a Silver 3 Player possess a hand card?

He didn’t believe it at all.

“Little brother, try to stall for time! The security officer will definitely arrive soon!”

The Silver 5 male thought the same and shouted loudly.

Shi Li’s response, however, was to flip his wrist and pull out a card.

“【LV1 Defense】: Puts one of your cards into 【Defense】 state, damage taken -50%.”

Whoosh!

The hand card transformed into a streak of light and struck the Stone Demon’s back.

【Awoooo!】

The Stone Demon immediately squatted down, holding its head with both hands in a defensive posture.

“He really has a 【Defense】 hand card!”

The Bearded Man’s eyes widened.

There are generally only two ways to obtain character cards.

One is monster drops, and the other is to perform simulated missions in the Player system.

However, there is only a certain chance of obtaining a hand card if the completion rate of the simulated mission exceeds 60%.

It is said that if the completion rate reaches 100%, a hand card is guaranteed.

But even he, a Silver 8, had never obtained even 1 hand card in a simulated mission!

So, the difficulty is imaginable.

Yet this student, merely a Silver 3, possessed a hand card?!

This was simply incredible!

With the help of 【Defense】, the Stone Demon only took (30-10) - 50% = 10 points, a total of 40 points of damage in one round.

At this rate, it could last at least two more rounds.

And one of the opposing Monsters had already been defeated.

In terms of the number of cards remaining, Shi Li was already on the same starting line as the Monster.

“But even with 1 【Defense】, he can’t win, can he?”

“Yeah, at his age and rank, having 1 【Defense】 is already quite impressive.”

However, amidst their doubts, the second round arrived.

Shi Li slowly… pulled out another 【Defense】.

“This!” x3

The trio was dumbfounded.

“2 is already the limit, he can’t possibly have a 3rd 【Defense】.”

“He’s only Silver 3, could it be that he got hand cards in all 3 simulated missions?”

“No way, that chance is far too small.”

The three of them completely forgot that they should be on Shi Li’s side at this moment.

All because what was happening before their eyes was challenging the very foundation of their understanding.

“I really do have a 3rd 【Defense】, you know.”

As a result, Shi Li pulled out yet another 【Defense】.

“This is impossible!” x3

The trio was utterly stunned.

A Silver 3 with 3 hand cards?!

100% hand card drop rate from missions?!

What kind of chosen one is this!

But the facts were right before their eyes, leaving them no choice but to believe.

With the help of 3 consecutive 【Defense】 cards, the 【Void Rend Wolf】 was finally easily defeated by Shi Li.

It was a pity that when it dissipated into a stream of light, not even a single hair dropped.

“How unlucky.”

Shi Li pouted.

...

At this very moment, in the monitoring room.

The reactions of the employees present were almost identical to those of the trio.

Even though they were employees of the Five Great Card Halls, more knowledgeable than ordinary Players.

But a Silver 3 with 3 hand cards was the first they had ever seen with their own eyes.

Meanwhile, Xiu Qingshan’s eyes were half-closed, revealing a sharp, brilliant light within.

“Within 10 minutes, I want all his information.”

Leaving these words, he turned and left.

...

In less than 5 minutes, Shi Li’s detailed information was already on Xiu Qingshan’s desk.

To select talent, the Education Bureau and the Show Card Hall have a long-term good cooperation, so obtaining a student’s information was not difficult.

“Old He, what do you think of this kid?”

After reading it, he tossed the information to the middle-aged man standing beside him.

“Although it’s rare for a mere Silver 3 to possess 3 hand cards, he still hasn’t achieved card resonance.”

Old He quickly scanned the information, and soon frowned, finding the key point.

If he hasn’t achieved card resonance by now, the chances of achieving it later are even smaller.

Such young Players generally have no future.

“Hmm.”

Xiu Qingshan closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, but remained noncommittal.

“Young Master wants to offer him a cultivation contract?”

Old He knew that the other party was waiting for him to speak.

A cultivation contract is a contract used by Card Halls to cultivate talented young people.

After signing the contract, the Card Hall will provide resource support to a certain extent.

It also signifies the Player’s official joining of that Card Hall.

“That’s right.”

Xiu Qingshan nodded.

One of the branch’s duties was originally to discover talent.

No Card Hall would complain about having too many talents, and the competition for talent among the Five Great Card Halls was particularly fierce.

“If that’s the case, I recommend offering him an E-class contract.”

Old He said.

An E-class contract is the lowest tier among cultivation contracts.

But it’s important to know that even the lowest tier is not something just anyone can get.

For high school students, it symbolizes more of an honor.

The honor of being noticed by the Five Great Card Halls.

Take, for example, the three Five Great Card Halls that have established themselves in Durian City; the total number of E-class contracts signed with local high school students each year would not exceed 50.

D-class and C-class contracts are even rarer, and B-class contracts, which are higher, have not even appeared in this city yet.

“Hall Master, Shi Li is here.”

Just then, a staff member led Shi Li in.
