Chapter 444 You“re Awake
Tian Du City.
The Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming woke up from his sleep. In his dreams, he saw the gentle lady beside him and rembered the programming cheerleader he had t when he was a simp...
That young lady...
He opened his eyes and his heart instantly ached.
Before his eyes...
There was not a young and fair lady but a wrinkled, old face that looked like an obese Shar-Pei that had slimd down rapidly before being run over by a car...
Ss——
Lu Ming gasped a breath of cold air.
Just as he was about to fly into a rage, he saw another familiar face, the chief of operations of Tian Du City. Oh.... This is an acquaintance. Why is he here?
Could it be that I violated him because I had too many drinks yesterday ?
Wait a minute.
I didn’t even drink...
Lu Ming knew very well that he had gone to sleep normally the day before.
Well, these people...
Lu Ming swept his sense of perception across them. Above seven-star, above seven-star, above seven-star, above seven-star... Damn it! He could not tell which level they were at!
“You’re awake,” a big shot said gently.
Lu Ming shivered all over when he heard this. He was reminded of the gentle care and concern with which one was awakened by the police after being sent to the ergency vehicle lane due to speeding.
Please don’t do this to !
Did he really deserve this?!
He had never driven a car before! (Not even online!)
Shush!
Shush!
Everyone stared at him.
Lu Ming looked up and glanced in the eyes of the big shots. He was silent because he did not know what to say!
It seed... that sothing major had happened?
Lu Ming blinked his eyes and glanced at the big shots, his gaze puzzled. The big shots looked directly at Lu Ming and the latter felt goosebumps all over.
“You’re awake,” a big shot said gently.
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Obviously. Was there a need to ask?
Well...
Don’t tell the big shot ant sothing else?
He gingerly asked, “Should I say that I’m awake... or not?”
“Phew—”
The big shots heaved a sigh of relief simultaneously.
He had responded!
Lu Ming had responded!
“Young lady!
“Did you see that!
“He really responded!
“There is no longer a problem?”
The big shot Summoner was in high spirits as he turned toward Xiaobai. Afterward, he was taken aback.
The young lady who had been keeping a close watch on them for the entire night was constantly dozing off in front of the table.
At this mont, the big shots did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Forget it, would they really take issue with a young lady?
“Lu Ming...”
One of the big shots finally felt more at ease.
“Shh!” Lu Ming interrupted him. He walked to Xiaobai and carried her.
“Oh... Master~ You’re awake.”
Xiaobai rubbed her eyes dazedly.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming placed the little girl on the bed gently. “Be good, rest well.”
“Yes.”
Xiaobai fell asleep with the blanket in her hands.
Well...
It had her Master’s sll.
...
“Let’s leave,” Lu Ming whispered.
The big shots glanced at one another with ugly expressions. Damn it! They had kept vigil by Lu Ming’s bed for an entire night and now they were watching a public display of affection...
Especially the few big shots who were single. They claid to be proud of being bachelors and that had never found a partner although they were already 60 to 70 years old. They felt extrely upset... It was a huge blow.
After a long while, everyone returned to the hall.
Li Haoran briefly told Lu Ming what had happened.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn!
It turns out that our association is that tough!
“Master.
“Rest assured. Do what you want.”
Li Haoran patted his chest. “If anything happens, we are on standby to fight!”
Lu Ming sighed.
The chief of operations was there. Could they really end up in a fight?!
“Sorry.
“I was exhausted from the fights over the past few days.”
Lu Ming sounded very apologetic. “The girl is concerned about . Please don’t take it to heart. Seniors, please speak your mind. I will agree without saying anything.”
Very well.
Everyone felt grateful. They had not wasted their ti.
The chief of operations felt especially grateful. He heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, they were not going to stir up any trouble. Since Lu Ming was willing to cooperate, could the situation be considered resolved?
“We want to have that card.”
The big shot Summoners did not waste any ti.
“Impossible!” Lu Ming replied instinctively.
The big shots were stunned.
Chief of operations was speechless.
Damn! Didn’t you say that you would agree without a word!!!
Lu Ming coughed. “Seniors, that card is my Original Card and I can’t create it. I realized it through the Original Card via so special thods...”
“Original Card?”
The Summoners were baffled.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming took out his Original Card.
Buzz—
Lights flashed.
Through Original Card materialization, he personally demonstrated to the big shots.
“Although I designed this card, it has a very high difficulty level and I never succeeded at creating it in real life. The areas that I can’t complete are done with special thods like supplenting and patching the Original Card. The only way to cast this card now is to materialize it through the Original Card,” Lu Ming said earnestly.
Seriously?
The Summoners were baffled.
They instinctively glanced at the people from the Card Creators Association.
“Indeed.”
The big shot Card Creator nodded slightly.
This was certainly the case based on what he had seen in Lu Ming’s demonstration.
Which ant that the card was still an experintal product!
At the mont, only Lu Ming could use it!
At the thought of this, the big shot Summoners felt relieved. After all, they reckoned that all the Summoners would go berserk if this card was already in sale!
But they had another more important concern.
“What is the function of this card?”
The Summoners guessed, “It can destroy all the summoned beasts in one go?”
They could only guess.
This was because Lu Ming’s advanced five-star powers could not possibly destroy the advanced six-star summoned beasts. It must be due to a card with a certain function!
“I’m not too sure.”
Lu Ming felt sowhat embarrassed. “I’ve just started researching this and have not used it on a large scale. I’ve only tested it a few tis and didn’t plan to use it initially...
“I don’t know why that Summoner brother ca and challenged . I tested it but didn’t expect it to turn out like that.”
Lu Ming was very embarrassed.
“Not even the design plan?”
The Card Creator was puzzled.
“No.”
Lu Ming felt very guilty. “This is because my standards are lacking. Half of the lines are created by and the rest are added to the Original Card through special thods...”
“Understood.”
The Card Creator sighed. He had also done that before.
Xiao-Xiaojian was sowhat puzzled.
Sothing was not right.
They could not create the card with the materialization of the Original Card. Nevertheless, if they had sufficient energy, it should not be too difficult to co up with a design plan?
Lu...
It wanted to interrupt Lu Ming.
Bam!
Lu Ming raised his hand and forcefully summoned the card back to his Sea of Consciousness.
Xiao-Xiaojian was speechless.
“Sorry.”
Lu Ming looked at the big shots in front of him apologetically.
The big shots were expressionless.
Very well.
First, the card had not been researched fully. Second, its functions had not been tested, and third, damn, it did not even have a design plan. What the hell was happening?!
“We can tell Lu Ming to stop using and developing this, right?”
Soone was elated.
The big shots looked at him as if he was an idiot. Was there a point in plugging one’s ears while stealing a bell?
Wasn’t this foolish?
When they could not resolve the problem, they would deal with the person who posed the problem?
If it was really a card that could annihilate the summoned beasts, they had to master it as soon as possible and then research the solution to it. This was the way to go!
What was the point in dealing with Lu Ming?
Since Lu Ming could discover the card, other people might also discover it in the future!
Furthermore, with the small videos going around, they were certain that many organizations were already secretly researching the card...
They had to resolve the problem imdiately!
Otherwise, once the organizations succeeded in their research...
It would be a severe blow to the entire Summoner Association!
The big shots glanced at one another. “What about sealing?”
What was the specific ability of the Original Card?
Sealing!
Since Lu Ming’s Original Card could contained it... If the Card Creator were to seal it...
“It won’t work.”
Lu Ming shook his head. “I tried it before and it can’t be sealed.”
“It’s okay.
“Let do it.”
The Card Creators Association big shot smiled faintly. “Child, I’ve seen your video before. Such abilities that are cast directly can be sealed! Perhaps you’re not aware because you’re a five-star. However, in the Card Creators’ world, nothing cannot be sealed!
“If it can...
“It only ans that you’re too weak!”
The big shot Card Creator said proudly, “Co, shoot it at .”
“Okay.”
Lu Ming was very cooperative.
So...
Under everyone’s hopeful gazes, the Original Card materialized and transford into a beam of light, shooting toward the Card Creator who was prepared to seal in in the Original Card. A dead silence followed...
He did not sense anything!
The big shots were stunned.
The Card Creator was speechless.
What the hell...
What the hell is happening again?!
“I said that it can’t be sealed,” Lu Ming said in a low voice.
The big shot Card Creator turned red in the face.
Damn!
What kind of lousy card is this?!
“This really doesn’t work?”
The Summoners were very disappointed.
“Sorry.”
Lu Ming felt very apologetic.
Seeing the disappointed faces of the big shots, he assured them, “Please don’t worry, seniors. At this rate, I should be able to research this completely in a few months’ ti!”
The big shots’ faces darkened.
A few months?!
How could they not worry!
The Summoners had already exploded with furor in one night!
If they had to wait for a few months...
However, they had also researched abilities before and were very aware that this kind of new ability required a large amount of testing and experinting to determine its effect.
Materialization of the Original Card...
They roughly knew how this was done!
Experinting with it?
That was not scientific!
Therefore, if one really wanted to test and research, they had to research and create that card.
“I’ll tell you what.”
The big shot Summoners discussed for a while. “Please get your entire association to research this card and get this out as soon as possible!”
“Sure.
Lu Ming said confidently, “With the current size of the Sword Card Master Association, we will only need three months!”
“No!”
The big shots’ faces darkened.
Three months?!
This will not do?!
However, the Sword Card Master Association was very small and they only had a few dozens of people...
“I’ll tell you what.
“What if we get the Card Creators Association seniors to help?” one of the Summoners said.
“Oh?”
Lu Ming felt apologetic. “How can I accept this...”
“Just tell us how long it will take then.”
The Summoners were indifferent.
“One month!”
Lu Ming was full of pride. “If the Card Creator seniors are willing to help, the duration can be shortened! I will be able to research this fully in one month!”
One month...
Impossible!
The Summoners would go berserk!
The Summoners said silently, “What’s the shortest amount of ti you can take?”
“If it’s just the design plan, I only need five days,” Lu Ming pondered deeply and said.
Oh?
The Summoner’s eyes shone. “What do you need?”
“Since we are researching and testing, we may need an endless supply of energy.”
Lu Ming felt a little embarrassed.
“Alright!”
The Summoners clenched their teeth.
“If we need to work overti, we may need an endless supply of calming water.”
Slightly embarrassed, Lu Ming said. “In fact, I’m fine with it. I’m young and, like I did today, I can rest once every three days. However, I’m afraid the Card Creator seniors...”
Calming water.
This was the strengthened version of the calming tea.
It could ensure constant recovery for one’s state of mind. As long as there was energy, one would not feel tired or sleepy. It was very powerful.
Theoretically, they would not even need any rest.
This was also a reason why many tycoon cultivators were that powerful...
Well, krypton gold cultivators.
They had many more channels of strength than other people...
Of course, the price...
The Summoners beca slightly pale. However, seeing the popularity of the trending topic and the increasingly frightened Summoners, they gritted their teeth and said, “Alright!”
“Also...”
...
In the end...
After a round of discussions, Classmate Lu Ming cooperated fully and the ti needed to churn out the design plan of the Elimination Card was shortened to three days!
Three days without any sleep and rest. Everyone would work on creating the card at full force!
It was perfect!
“It’ll be tough for you guys,” the big shot Summoners told Lu Ming.
“Since I’m the one who started the trouble, I take responsibility for it,” Lu Ming said earnestly.
“Not bad!”
The gazes of the big shot Summoners were filled with admiration and praise.
This child...
He was a contemporary role model!
They had heard from many people about Lu Ming before. So people were full of praises of him whereas so chided him furiously. However, since interacting with him in person...
Heh.
They realized that this child was heaven’s pride, indeed!
As the chief of operations said, this child was loyal, kind and brave!
Although they felt so resentnt over the young lady’s behavior the day before, they could not really bla the young lady for that? Furthermore, after interacting with Lu Ming, they felt that he was as warm and soothing as a spring breeze. As long as it was within his ans, he never declined!
What kind of attitude was this?
How cooperative could one be?
What else could they feel dissatisfied with?
“We’ll do that then?”
The big shot Summoners looked at the chief of operations.
The chief of operations looked at the sincere Lu Ming and then the big shot Summoners who felt cornered but were also satisfied with the outco, he could only take a deep breath.
The two parties had already discussed and agreed on the terms. Was he in the position to object?
“We’ll do that then.”
The chief of operations made the final decision.
That day...
The Summoner Association made an announcent.
They had already found the mysterious card that defeated the summoned beast and was cooperating with Lu Ming to research and develop the card. It was estimated that the research would be completed in three days. Therefore, they told the Summoners not to worry.
The Summoners then cald down slightly.
Three days. They would wait it out!!
...
Over those three days.
Ten peak six-star Card Creators ca and stayed at the Sword Card Master Association.
Ming broke down the lines of the five-star Mover Card, five-star Elimination Card, five-star Sunlight Card and almost all the cards that he did not manage to research fully!!!
He passed hundreds of lines from different cards to the 10 Card Creators!
He was not be able to do it himself.
The Sword Card Master Association was having a great ti.
There was an endless supply of calming water and an endless supply of energy. Of course, the mbers of the Sword Card Master Association got to enjoy those as well and their cultivation speed increased!
Besides this,there were various kinds of arrays that aided rapid recovery and cultivation...
Everything was provided.
These were the conditions that the Summoner Association agreed to in order to create the card.
Three days!
The strength of the entire Sword Card Master Association increased by leaps and bounds!
Three days!
Lu Ming had advanced by a small level with his fervent cultivation speed.
Well...
He had progressed greatly!
Of course, most importantly, it was the progress of their card research!
Researching five-star cards which were already halfway done proceeded rapidly with the Card Creators Association’s lighting research speed and cooperation!
Lu Ming believed that he would be able to create the five-star cards very soon!
...
Three days later.
Under the big shots’ hopeful gazes, after the ‘hard work’ of Lu Ming, the seniors of the Card Creators Association and all the disciples of the Sword Card Master Association, the ‘Elimination Card design plan’ was created successfully!
Everyone was celebrating!
“It’s been tough for you!”
The Summoner Association big shots thanked Lu Ming and then the president of the Summoner Association personally invited a few grandmaster Card Creators to jointly create this Elimination Card!
Afterward...
They began testing!
In the end...
They found out the function of the card: It could ltdown three or more of the sa entities with the sa aura!
Well...
It was so simple and rough.
Therefore...
It would not work as long as the three entities were different?
So...
They tried to cast the card on a weak four-star Summoner who summoned different kinds of beasts.
It was ineffective!
The big shot Summoners had dumbstruck expressions.
Wait a minute.
Was this the card that had cost them a bomb to research?!
Damn!
They could only annihilate things of the sa kind?!
It was a fraud!
The card rely annihilated things with ‘sa clan’ characteristics. Therefore, they just had to tweak their line-up slightly and it would no longer work!!!
At the thought of this, there was so pent-up frustration in the hearts of the big shot Summoners.
If they had known that this was the case...
To hell with research!
They just had to change their line-up!!!
After all, Summoners who had six or more of the sa beasts were at the extre end! It was as extre as Lu Ming’s card!!!
The situation in the video would only occur when it was a case of extre vs. extre!
You must be freaking kidding !
Damn! This was too much of a fraud!
This was the only thought that the big shots had.
...
After a long while...
Under the anticipation of all the Summoners, the Summoner Association announced the function of the ‘Elimination Card’ and the situation in the video.
All the Summoners gasped.
“I never expected it to be this way!”
“It rely targets Summoners similar to the Clan Faction!”
“I had the fright of my life.”
“I feel more peaceful now.”
“This is a false alarm.”
The Summoners were both happy and relieved.
But then again, this had happened for the Leviathan Card as well. To be exact, this was the second ti that they were scared out of their wits by Lu Ming’s card.
“This Lu Ming...”
“He is such a fraud!”
“What are you talking about? I heard that Lu Ming did not get paid this ti!”
“Is this true or not?”
“Of course! According to sources, to help us research this card, the entire association was involved and they even gave the design plan to the Summoner Association at no costs!”
“Wow, that’s too kind of him!”
“He truly is heaven’s pride...”
The Summoners felt extrely grateful.
The sensational situation had co to an end. The positive comnts from the Summoners about Lu Ming had received so attention on social dia and techniques forums.
However...
Nobody knew.
At this mont, the big shots of the Summoner Association were the most upset!
Only god knew how much money they had spent, how huge the price they paid had been, and how many favors they owed from inviting a group of seven-star Card Creators...
The outc?
They discovered that everything was fake!
They ended up with a useless design plan!
However...
Could they bla it on Lu Ming?
On what grounds?
He and his entire association cooperated without sleep and rest for three days and three nights and worked overti to complete the job. He did not even charge them for the design plan!!!
Could you bear to bla such a pure and innocent teenager?
However, they did not know why...
They kept feeling very uneasy...
The chief of operations patted their shoulders. “It’s alright. You’ll feel fine after you get used to it.”
The big shot Summoners were speechless.
