Chapter 246 Hidden Cards
"Guess who I am now?"

That voice echoed in the empty and silent church.

The light gate quietly suspended in mid-air.

Liu Ping looked around the entire church, but he didn't find any monsters or anything unusual.

——The opponent's method is very clever.

"Guess your identity, is this the test to get the card?"

Liu Ping asked.

The voice sounded again:

"You didn't give your heart to the devil, but crushed it. This has passed my test for you—as for who I am, if you guess it, I will reward you."

Liu Ping asked: "Reward?"

The voice said: "—I will tell you the secrets of the exile."

Liu Ping fell into deep thought.

The secrets hidden in the Land of Exile are too deep. If the other party really knows these secrets, then this is an extremely valuable thing for him.

after all.

Whether it's a scene or experience value, you need to explore the secrets.

Knowing the secrets of the Land of Exile can also help you better deal with everything that happens here.

Liu Ping thought about it, and slowly said:
"First of all, you know that the corpse worm was sealed in the 'The Fool' sequence world."

"Yes." said the voice.

"I guess you are willing to tell me so much, you must have used some method to find out that I sealed the corpse worm."

"That's right, continue," the voice said leisurely, "The better you are, the more confident I will be——I will tell you the real secret."

Liu Ping thought for a few breaths, and said: "If there are three beings sealed in the prisoner's body, one is the guy who turned into a corpse and escaped into the 'Fool', and the other is the three-headed skeleton just now—then the remaining being, It should be parasitic on Hua Qingkong."

"It's not parasitic, but I answered her call." The voice said.

"Response?" Liu Ping asked in surprise.

"She is an extremely rare necromancer... Not only is she extremely talented, but her will also coincides with mine... She awakened me from my endless slumber."

The gem suddenly bloomed with light again, turning into a scene of light and shadow.

Snow mountain.

In the north wind of the call sign, a girl trekked hard on the rugged mountain road.

flower clear sky!
Corpse insects surrounded her one after another, attacking continuously.

A dim light constantly appeared around the girl, repelling the corpse insects and flying them away.

"I can't do this, I have to find a way to find a stronger spirit, otherwise I will end up being eaten by these bugs!"

The gloomy light around the girl burst out suddenly, knocking all the corpse insects away.

A blazing light flashed in her eyes, her body floated up, her hands were put together in a prayer pose.

"Use my life force to join forces with all wishes—"

"Come, spirits of the void!"

"No matter who you are, as long as you can defeat such an enemy with me, please help me!"

The world shook.

Far away in the sky, a silk thread shuttled in, trapping all the corpse insects around Hua Qingkong.

A voice sounded: "Who... are you?"

"I'm Hua Qingkong, the psychic caller. Please come and help me defeat these bugs."

"Insects... I remember, I am their enemy, but to defeat them, I need your body."

"Possession?"

"Yes, you remember, once I am possessed, it is almost impossible to separate from you."

"I can't help it. If you don't come, I will only be eaten by bugs." Hua Qingkong gritted her teeth.

boom--

In the sky, endless rays of light fell down and poured into her body.

……

All light and shadow gradually dissipated.

Liu Ping said: "The corpse worms besieging you..."

The voice said: "They have the power of the unspeakable person, and when I was trapped in the cave, I wanted to see what you would do - until just now, I have been paying attention to you."

Liu Pingdao: "In this way, you are one of the three being sealed, and you are the spirit of Hua Qingkong."

A silence.

The other party did not speak.

Liu Ping was a little surprised, but suddenly felt something, and looked into the sky.

I saw the light door shrinking slowly and falling towards Liu Ping.

——It turned into a card and gently fell into Liu Ping's hand.

The card depicts an endless cemetery, and in the center of the cemetery there is a magnificent church, exuding a faint brilliance.

Lines of burning small characters emerged:
"You got the card: Holy Church."

"Explanation: In the past historical records, the entire process of it being corrupted by darkness and evil is described in detail, but that is a false holy church. The real one has been hiding in the mirror world, waiting for some kind of call."

"You have to be told to know what its power is."

"——This is the core sequence card of 'Land of Exile'."

Liu Jing quietly looked at the card.

At last the voice sounded:
"This card can dispel all prying eyes, so that no one can detect that you have a sequence of core cards."

Accompanied by the other party's explanation, the exact same explanation appeared on the card.

"Go, your only chance is to collect the core cards of the entire 'Land of Exile'."

"So what if we collect them all? I'm afraid I still have no way to confront that devil head-on." Liu Ping said.

The opponent doesn't know the heroic interface on his body.

Why do you ask yourself to collect core cards?
That voice said: "The secret I want to tell you is actually this—"

"'Land of Exile' is a whole set of cards."

"When you collect all its core cards, you can awaken the hidden card in the deck."

"It will be your strongest support."

Liu Ping couldn't help but said: "Wait! Why are there hidden cards?"

"Every sequence has a hidden card... If you can survive, I will tell you about this later."

The voice gradually became weaker and disappeared into the void.

next moment.

A few lines of small burning characters appeared in front of Liu Ping's eyes:

"The current world has disappeared."

"Spatial overlap is lifted."

"Time starts to reset, returning to the moment you entered this world."

Light and shadow flickered all around.

The whole world dissipates with it.

Liu Ping found himself back on the solid road, surrounded by long queues of carriages.

The voice of the leader of the Chamber of Commerce came from afar:
"what happened?"

The wind demon Lorenzo floated in the air, surprised: "Huh? The time-space overlap has already appeared, why did it disappear?"

Someone shouted: "Report! The soldiers around me are gone!"

Someone shouted again: "Boss, we also lost a few people here."

The wind demon Lorenzo flew down and asked those people quickly.

Everyone is on alert.

Liu Ping looked around and saw a few professionals who were not aware of it, and their eyes were fixed on the fields on both sides of the road.

They don't know that they just disappeared.

That is to say-

Really a time reset.

...What a means.

Liu Ping sighed secretly, Yana's voice suddenly sounded in his ear:
"I seem to have gained a lot of experience points, and I can improve my strength soon."

"You are a peak-level paladin, can you continue to improve?" Liu Ping asked.

"Originally, I was at the full level, and I could only advance to the gods - but after loading your sequence, the path of the paladin seems to extend upwards - to a level that I don't understand at all." Yana said in a way Said in an incredible tone.

"Then continue to improve, now we need strength too much."

Liu Ping looked towards the void in front of him.

Lines of burning small characters are floating:

"You have heard the secret of the Void Pillar."

"You are aware of the triple identity of the prisoner."

"You have heard the hidden card secrets of 'Land of Exile'."

"Screen +3."

"Current scene: 4/10."

"In addition, you have learned a lot of secrets during the exploration, thus increasing the experience value."

"Current experience value: 110%."

"Would you like to upgrade?"

——You can upgrade!

Liu Ping looked around and saw that everyone was nervous, so he shook his head and said, "Not at this time, wait until later."

The prompt on the interface stopped moving.

Suddenly, there were several screams in the team.

Lorenzo the Wind Demon said loudly: "All professionals, prepare to fight!"

He flew towards the screaming place, and—

Everyone saw the monster.

It was a monster with a human upper body and a worm lower body.

It was hidden in the void, until Lorenzo passed by, it suddenly jumped out and stabbed him fiercely.

A card suddenly appeared on Lorenzo's body.

"Hurricane Blade!"

he growled.

Violent and complicated wind blades burst out, twisting the bug into several pieces.

"Not the devil—"

Lorenzo looked at the monster's corpse, and after half a sentence he couldn't continue.

Beside him, someone lost his voice:

"What kind of monster is this, I've never heard of it!"

People gathered around and silently looked at the monster's corpse.

No one can answer that question just now.

A strange atmosphere began to spread in the team.

"Go, don't stay, let's start immediately and move on."

Lorenzo said decisively.

"But my lord, some of us have disappeared--don't we stop and look for them?"

A professional spoke up.

Lorenzo turned his head sharply, looked deeply at the professional and said:

"I have the power of the wind, and I can detect the life breath of everyone. The breath of those people just now has disappeared."

After speaking, he walked towards the front of the team.

The professional froze in place.

Soon, no one paid any attention to him, and people took action silently.

The team moved forward at an extraordinary speed.

Liu Ping was riding a horse, and while galloping, he turned his eyes to the void.

A brand new line of prompts appeared in front of his eyes:
"The Heroic Spirit operation interface obtained the core card of 'Land of Exile' and began to evolve."

"Congratulations."

"You can now adjust the Heroic Spirit interface again."
