Chapter 284
rumbling--

In the place where the battle was held, the surrounding black peaks moved one after another, disappearing from Liu Ping one by one.

All the visions gradually became thinner, and eventually completely dissipated.

Liu Ping returned to where he was originally.

Yana asked in surprise, "What happened just now?"

Snapped--

A corpse fell from the void.

The Card Master of Time.

"Why did he die!" Libertas wondered.

"It's very strange," Liu Ping explained, "He activated a card of some kind by playing cards, so that he and I can only fight with our own strength."

Everyone was silent.

Libertas sighed: "Why do you want to seek your own death when you have all kinds of tricks?"

Zhao Chanyi stepped forward and patted Liu Ping on the shoulder, and said in a boastful tone: "Liu Ping is already a level 40 card master, if he only fights with his own strength - with his fighting ability, I really can't think of any Who can fight it."

Yana looked at Liu Ping and nodded secretly in her heart.

Yes, having gained enough soul power to fight, his strength has finally ushered in a qualitative change.

Even the card master of time couldn't do anything to him.

——He is no longer weak!
In mid-air, a heavy card book fell down.

Liu Ping caught it.

A line of burning small characters quickly appeared:

"You have won this sacrificial battle."

"You get everything from the vanquished."

"Congratulations, you have obtained the card book: Book of Quicksand."

"This is a card book of the time system, and it has very high requirements for users."

"—Only card masters of the time department can use it."

The card master of the time system...

Now there is no one around me who is a card master of the time system.

Let's put it away first.

Just as Liu Ping put away the card book, Hua Qingkong suddenly asked, "Are you sure it's the method of sacrificial warfare?"

"Yes." Liu Ping said.

"Let's go, get out of here as soon as possible." Hua Qingkong said with a serious expression.

"Why?" Norton asked.

Hua Qingkong said: "You haven't experienced the glory days of the Void Human Race, and I don't know as much about the methods of some cards—"

"The method of sacrificial warfare must be used by a card master who has mastered the ability of sacrifice, but the card master of the time just now obviously did not have this talent."

Liu Ping said: "You mean, there is another person behind this guy?"

"Yes, sacrifice is a very evil card ability. Even in my era, ordinary people would not provoke such an existence." Hua Qingkong said.

"It makes sense, we just have to hurry back to the Mechanic City, why are we fighting with this kind of guy?" Yana said calmly.

Liu Ping nodded.

My most important task at present is to find the holy series of cards, in order to return to the real world and find the scabbard of the prison knife.

Only in this way can the fate of death be avoided.

If it wasn't for the card master of time who kept fighting with him and trying to take the cards from his hand, he wouldn't be bothered to fight him.

in other words--

I'm not a fool, so why stand here and wait for the people behind others to come and take revenge?

"Let's go, let's continue on our way." Liu Ping said.

Everyone turned into cards one after another and returned to the card book to rest.

Yana hesitated.

"Why don't I fly with you?"

she asked,
Liu Ping shook his head and said, "No, although this section of the road is safe, who knows what's going on ahead? You can't die, but I can die many times—"

He looked at the characters in the void, and said softly: "I have added all the improvement opportunities obtained from the upgrade to the speed."

"Did you add Levitation?" Yana asked with interest.

"No, it's the most basic agility and strength, which can increase action speed and combat response." Liu Ping said.

"Nice job, flying in Eternal Night is somewhat dangerous, and running will give you more room to deal with danger." Yana said.

She turned into a card and returned to the card book.

Liu Ping put away the card book, looked towards the dark plain ahead, and murmured: "As long as I run fast enough, I might be able to reach the Mechanic City earlier..."

boom!
He ran like an afterimage, drawing a line of dust rising high on the plain.

……

When Liu Ping left.

underground.

deep.

In a huge tomb made entirely of metal.

Several figures came from various places and met in the center of the tombs.

The leader was a tall man in black.

He wore a black mask and asked, "How?"

Another said:

"This floor has basically been explored, and we need to go back and prepare. All materials and cards must be prepared before we can enter the next floor."

The man wearing the black mask said: "Very well, then this mission—"

Sudden.

He closed his mouth.

All around was quiet.

Everyone became vigilant, took out the card book one after another, and made a defensive posture.

"It's okay... Actually, it's outside, the wind blower used up the battle card I gave him." The man said.

"I remember that we have cleaned up all the sleepers in this area," said a person wearing a fox mask.

"What kind of existence is it that pushed him to this point?"

Said another man wearing a white wolf mask.

"—It's really strange. The wind-releasing person still has some skills. I want to see who can push him to such a degree." The man wearing the dark mask said.

The person wearing the fox mask took out a card and shouted, "Let's go!"

The cards are thrown out.

It turned into a white light that enveloped everyone, and instantly disappeared from this dark underground tomb.

ground.

Six figures emerged at the same time.

"he died--"

A person wearing a Greyhound mask said, laughing: "Even the Book of Quicksand has been taken away. I really failed this powerful card book."

These people slowly came to the corpse of the card master of time and remained still.

"Well, I have a question." asked the man in the greyhound mask.

"What?" Someone answered.

"Is there a profession that can specialize cards if you have to shit?" He continued to ask.

"...Your angle is too tricky, but why do you ask such a question?"

"Because when he was dying, it seemed like he was about to shit."

"Really? Let me check."

- Bang!

A card is thrown out.

A layer of white mist suddenly appeared on the corpse, showing the appearance of a bottle of holy water.

The person wearing the greyhound mask suddenly realized:
"What? He also said that he has a hidden profession, so it turned out that he just got the holy water of the sacred department."

At this time, a stench came from the corpse on the ground.

Everyone retreated a few steps silently, and then retreated a little further.

White Wolf sighed: "I just joined the team, and I still have the team leader's sacrifice card to use, but I died on the first mission, Zhencai."

"His card book is really good. He's just too bad, and he's been trying to get close to me before." The woman wearing the star mask snorted coldly.

She thought for a while and asked:
"Captain, he was probably killed by a card master from the holy camp. What should we do next?"

Everyone stopped talking and looked at the person wearing the dark mask silently.

He was silent for a while, and said:

"...As far as I know, people in the holy camp are extremely despicable, unscrupulous, insidious and cunning, but they have two advantages."

"The first advantage: I don't take the initiative to cause trouble, and I like peace in everything."

"Look at what happened before."

"If someone from the holy camp took the initiative to kill him, then we will avenge him, no matter who the other party is or what his identity is, we will never die."

"Yes." said the woman wearing a star mask.

She threw a card out and shouted: "The reflection of the stars!"

Void flashed.

Countless illusory stars float in the darkness, illuminating this region.

Gradually, several figures emerged in the light.

Devil and Liupin.

They followed the road until they came to the place where the card master of time was released.

The card master of time stood on top of the bone dragon, and said: "You have broken into my territory, and you can leave safely as long as you pay a certain fee."

Everyone watched this scene, and a fierce murderous intent erupted from their bodies.

The man wearing the greyhound mask yelled: "Boss, he doesn't obey the rules. You let him out, but he actually started a robbery here."

The man wearing the white wolf mask said: "Damn it, we are careful every step of the way down there, and he actually blocks the way up and robs and fights with people. If there is too much movement and the mechanism below is triggered, we will be the ones to die."

The man in the dark mask did not speak.

It wasn't until all the screens were over and the card master of time turned into a corpse and fell to the ground that he opened his mouth and said:

"Originally, he was allowed to join because he got an extremely rare time card book... But he didn't obey orders during the operation..."

"I will not avenge him." said the woman wearing a star mask.

The leader nodded and said: "As I said just now, people in the holy camp have two advantages. The first is that they don't take the initiative to cause trouble. As for the second..."

He held up a finger and said, "When they are enemies, you hate them so much, but there is a way to make you like them immediately."

"What way?" asked the woman wearing a star mask.

"Let them be your comrades in arms." The leader said.

Everyone was silent.

"That's right, the sacred department is the strongest in terms of healing." The man wearing the greyhound mask said.

"I've had some dealings with them—"

A man wearing a tiger mask said, "They are very insidious. You must be very careful when you are their enemy, but you will feel at ease when you are their comrade in arms."

"Being able to kill a time-type card master has proven his worth and is worth absorbing into our team," White Wolf said.

The leader looked at the tiger.

"To explore this burial place, we really need people who can heal and remove curses. If the battle can be as good as this—"

The tiger kicked the corpse on the ground and said, "I agree to be absorbed into the team."

Now, only the woman with the star mask is left.

She didn't look at the crowd, but looked into the distance and said:
"He runs very fast. If you have an idea, leader, you must act immediately, or you will lose me in a while."

"Run? Why is he running?" Greyhound wondered.

"Hit and run, that's the style of the holy camp," the woman said.

Everyone looked at the leader again.

"Very well, we will set off to find him at once."

The leader made a final decision.
