Cards are born to be king

Amos was still in a deep sleep. Looking at the sky outside, it was estimated that it was still some distance away from dawn.After regaining consciousness, Jiang Yongzheng planned to take advantage of the time to deal with the mess under his body, but with a slight movement, the sore, numb, itchy pain suddenly spread from the joints all over his body.

He seemed to have not moved for hundreds of years, and his whole body was like a rusty machine.

Accidentally groaning, Jiang Yong secretly took a breath of cool air, his bones snapped when he got up suddenly just now, and now his waist is so sore as if it was broken.Not daring to make any big movements, Jiang Yong leaned against the soft cushion placed on the head of the bed, slowly moving his stiff joints.

"Huh, you're finally awake."

The voice of the pocket watch old man sounded from his mind, with a bit of joy and rejoicing:

"You kid has been sleeping for more than a month, and you are really worried. I think if you don't wake up, the half-elf kid will probably take you back to the elf forest to ask for the water of life. Fortunately, you are finally awake now. coming."

"It's been more than a month?"

Jiang Yong's heart skipped a beat.He spent five days at Interstellar, but a month has passed here.He had never been back to West Fantasy for such a long time before, and it seemed that he was in a coma when he woke up on the StarCraft side.

Feeling that something was wrong in front of his eyes, he frowned and raised his hand to touch his right eye, but found that it was covered by a thin cloth-like thing, and he couldn't feel a trace of light.Jiang Yong subconsciously wanted to tear it off, but the old man with the pocket watch who noticed his movement quickly stopped him:

"Don't move, the core is sealed in your right eye now. Its power is too big to control, and it can easily spill out, so it can only be like this for the time being."

Until now, Jiang Yong's thinking finally turned around.Thinking of what happened before he fell into a coma, he hurriedly said:

"How is Star Academy doing now, are Ellie and the others alright?"

"Hmph, of course they're doing well. Why don't you ask yourself how you're doing first."

The old man with the pocket watch saw that he first asked about the Star Academy, and snorted coldly, with a bit of hatred in his tone.He sighed and said to Jiang Yong earnestly:

"You kid, take good care of yourself. Your second card is the bow of killing gods. It is too powerful and destructive. Guess how much vitality you have left now? If it weren't for that The half-elf has been feeding you good things from the elves these days, maybe you won't be able to wake up now."

Amos...

Can't help but think of the previous dream, Jiang Yong's eyes drifted away, he couldn't help but coughed dryly and changed the subject:

"Anyway, the vitality can be replenished by the potion. When you tested my physique in the pocket watch, didn't you often say that I was going to die soon? You see, I am still fine now."

"I'm sorry to tell you that the road of medicine is temporarily unavailable to you."

The old man with pocket watch sighed, with a bit of vicissitudes in his tone:

"From the moment you collect the second card, those potions that replenish vitality below the master level will lose their effect on you."

Jiang Yong was taken aback for a moment, puzzled and said:

"This potion is still targeted? Why are they useless to me when I take in the second card?"

"You should have learned the origin of the star disciples. They rely on spiritual power to manipulate the star core and convert it into star soul power to control cards."

The pocket watch old man explained:

"Historically, star apprentices with many cards usually have a short lifespan, because the higher the potential, the stronger the spiritual power they have, and every time a card is captured, the individual's spiritual power will skyrocket, but one person can hold His mental strength is limited. When the spirit is far higher than what the body can bear, he will start to appear fugue, and in the end the mind will be out of the body, and the whole person will be finished."

It was the first time Jiang Yong heard this argument, and he couldn't help asking curiously: "If this is the case, won't it be okay if you don't accept cards or accept a few fewer cards in your life?"

"You want to be easy."

The old man with pocket watch sighed:

"The limitation I just mentioned is only for star apprentices who have more than five cards, because from the beginning of five cards, the spiritual domain of star apprentices has undergone drastic changes. You should have learned how to perceive your own spiritual power in class, you Do you still remember how many star cores there are in your mental space?"

"Eh... there are so many in one universe?"

A light flashed in Jiang Yong's mind. He still remembered that most of the star cores of other people in the class were only single digits, and they were still very small.He originally thought that his mental space was different because of the large number of cards he had, but now that he thought about it, many doubts surfaced in his mind.The old man with the pocket watch gave him some time to think, and then he continued:

"Yes, because most of the star cores in the human body correspond to the number of cards you have when you get five cards, but starting from five cards, the spiritual domain of star apprentices will undergo qualitative changes. Their star cores will no longer be different. The number of star cores in the five-card Star Apprentice Spiritual Domain is close to a hundred, and the six-card one is nearly a thousand. And the seven-card one is as you said, It already looks almost like a universe."

The old man with pocket watch had a bit of emotion in his tone, he murmured:

"The brightest big stars in the spiritual domain represent your cards and abilities, and every time you conquer an ability, the star core activated will multiply. You have only collected the second ability now, but it involves It is estimated that the number of star cores has reached hundreds. The mental power contained in such a large number of star cores is unimaginable. Your current mental power is almost comparable to a four-card star apprentice who has conquered all abilities .”

"However, at your current age, this is no less than putting the entire river's water into a small glass bottle. You say, if you continue like this, your body will not be ruptured? A life force supplement below the master level It is not enough for the potion to repair your body that is destroyed every moment, where is the rest to increase your lifespan."

"Then according to what you said, awakening Doka is death."

Jiang Yong said helplessly on the surface, but his tone was somewhat tentative.But the old man with the pocket watch didn't notice, he followed Jiang Yong's words and replied:

"That's not necessarily the case. You used the God Slaughter Bow twice in a row this time, and your mental strength was almost exhausted. To be honest, I didn't expect you to be able to survive it. Even now, you have only recovered a small part, but this is for you. It’s good news, as long as you can control this power as soon as possible during this period of time, and use it to repair your body, you will pass this test.”

"For Star Apprentices with multiple cards, the process of subduing the second card's ability is the most dangerous, and after that, the third and fourth abilities will ease a lot. It is not until the fifth ability that they will again It is a great burden on the body. Fei Lian, you have to work hard, as long as you can survive this hurdle, you will be fine from now on."

The old man with pocket watch encouraged:

"And I don't know why, there is some inexplicable spiritual connection between you and that half-elf. At that time, when you subdued the God Slaughter Bow, the surge of mental power almost burst you, but fortunately, the excessive mental power followed the connection. Flock to him a little, which saves you a lot of trouble. To be honest, I have never seen a five-card star apprentice lose all his cards, and his mental power is almost exhausted..."

The tone of the old man with the pocket watch contained a bit of regret and doubt, but when Jiang Yong heard him mention Amos, he hurriedly asked:

"Will the mental power rushing past cause him any harm?"

"No, on the contrary, to a certain extent, your excess spiritual power can nourish and repair his damaged spiritual realm. But in this way, the connection between your spirits may be deeper."

No matter how emotional the pocket watch old man was, Jiang Yong noticed that Amos's eyelashes were trembling slightly, as if he was about to wake up.Before his brain could fully react, he had already pulled the blanket to cover his lower body.And the next moment, the elf slowly opened his eyes.The original peaceful sleeping face was broken, and the elf frowned slightly with a serious expression.But when he found that Jiang Yong had woken up, Amos still had a touch of surprise on his face.

"You finally woke up."

Amos hurriedly stood up and walked to Jiang Yong's bedside, looking at him with concern:

"How do you feel now?"

It's almost the same sentence, but when it came out of Amos's mouth, it sounded particularly sweet.Jiang Yong opened his mouth to speak, only to find that his voice was hoarse and dry, as if a fire had been ignited.The communication with the pocket watch old man has always been in his mind, even if he barely speaks a few words, he still can't hear clearly.

Keenly noticing his situation, Amos took the teapot placed on the short plane next to him and poured Jiang Yong a glass of water, and handed it to his mouth, with a gentle tone:

"Have a drink."

I will do it myself……

He thought so in his heart, but Jiang Yong had no choice but to find that his hands were really in control, and when he moved his joints a little, there would be a terrible clicking sound, and he was stiff and unable to move.There was a smile in Amos's eyes, and he moved the water glass towards Jiang Yong:

"Drink, your current injury has not fully healed. Don't move around casually for the time being."

"Ah."

Responding vaguely, Jiang Yong took a few sips of water from Amos' hand.I don't know if it's an illusion, but he feels that the current Amos seems to be a little more calm than before. When he is calm, he feels as deep and distant as the deep sea.Before he had time to think about it, a sweet smell hit his taste buds.It is like honey, but also has a mixed aroma of flowers and fruits.

Before he knew it, he had already drank the whole glass of water, smacking his lips, the wonderful fragrance still remained in his mouth.And the body seems to have a little more strength.

"This is the flower dew of the elves, and it has a recuperating effect on the body."

After putting away the water glass and putting it aside, Amos turned around again, and the atmosphere had already changed slightly.He looked at Jiang Yong, his eyes moved slightly:

"you……"
